"Sect Master is merciful, just accept me. If nothing else, I have the strength..."
"Give me a chance, I work very hard..."
"I don't dare to ask for a formal disciple, just a handyman..."
"Sect Master Yan, I treated you to a drink, have you forgotten..."
On the square in front of the temple, a large group of people kowtowed and prayed, hoping to join Xuanxin Zongzong.
After the apprenticeship ceremony for formal disciples, there was only one futon left among the seventy-two. But neither Su Qing nor Yan Chixia seemed to have any intention of making up for it.
On the contrary, the two children who presented the swords were kept by Yan Chixia. He said that he was just a boy by his side, serving tea and water and doing odd jobs.
After that, Su Qing disappeared from the clouds, and the guests exploded.
The founding disciple of the Immortal Sect must not be careless, and the guests present had a clear understanding of this. So despite all kinds of jealousy and regret, I can barely hold on. But as the two children who brought the swords were accepted, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared.
If you can't make it as a disciple of the founder, you can just be a handyman of the founder.
After all, first-come-first-come-first-served basis may be enough to catch up with the next batch. For such a large sect, it is impossible to only have these people now. Recruiting new people is a matter of time. To take a step back, even if you can't become a formal disciple, a handyman can still learn secretly.
A group of people were making a fuss there, and the four elders couldn't stand it anymore.
"Sect Master, send them away. We are not familiar with such a large dojo as yours, so it's hard for them to stay here."
"There are also new disciples who need to be registered and placed. Those who have been selected by the Lord will definitely be fine. However, some people have complex backgrounds and still need to be dealt with appropriately..."
Several elders gave their opinions one after another.
"Let the disciples go and blow them away!" Princess Wenzhu was already in a state of state, her eyes were swollen and she was gnashing her teeth and talking incoherently.
"I deserve it for my blindness and missed the opportunity, but I still want to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak in? My Xuanxin Zongzong is such a peaceful place, how can I allow these guys to defile it..."
With Yan Chixia's character, she shouldn't object to seeing guests off. But unexpectedly, he shook his head.
"No, wait a moment."
The four elders looked at each other, all very puzzled.
"Sect Master, do you have any plans? Or the remaining position..." asked an elder.
"No, but wait." Yan Chixia looked a little serious.
Most others thought that the Lord of Penglai had left, but Yan Chixia saw that Su Qing had not left. I just fell from the cloud to the nearby mountain and sat cross-legged under a big pine tree to meditate.
Yan Chixia didn't know the mystery of this move, but she had a vague feeling that she was waiting for something.
As well as the guests in the square in front of the palace, they always felt that the matter was not over yet.
Yan Chixia was used to being loose and free, and didn't like to bear the responsibilities of a sect. Not to mention that Shangjun obviously has a big plan and he doesn't have much trust in his own abilities.
But whether you like it or not, you will not escape the responsibilities you bear. Everything about Xuanxin Zongzong must be treated extremely seriously.
"Wait, something will happen."
There was no announcement of the end, no follow-up, Yan Chixia just stood there waiting.
The four elders stood beside him, and a group of founding disciples stood behind him, accompanying him silently.
One hour passed, two hours passed...
The people in the square in front of the temple went from noisy to suspicious, from suspicious to quiet, from quiet to dissatisfied, from dissatisfied to hungry.
"What's going on with Xuanxin Zhengzong? Tell me whether it works or not."
"Yeah, if you don't say a word, you don't know what to do."
"How long has it been? I haven't even had a sip of tea. I should have known I would have brought some food."
"I've done all my courtesy, I won't wait any longer."
"Yes, what's the big deal? I won't accompany you, uncle..."
People whispered to express their dissatisfaction, and from time to time someone made rude remarks. But even those who expressed the most vehemently never really left.
There are not many fools who can come here. How can you still not understand when you have a living example in front of you?
Before, the bowl of white porridge at the foot of the mountain was an opportunity, but now the waiting in the square is not a test?
The Xuanxin Zhengzong people did not leave, nor did they announce the end of the ceremony.
Something must be wrong.
wait!
Time passed little by little, and the sun gradually set towards the west. As the last ray of the sun disappeared behind the mountains, the temperature suddenly became cooler.
It's not just the coolness of the mountains, but a chill. Everyone was caught off guard, and some even sneezed.
People are all strange.
It will definitely get cooler after the sun goes down, but not so quickly.
Just when it was strange, the sky also darkened.
Generally speaking, the afterglow after the sun goes down will last for a long time. But with the sudden cold air, the light seemed to disappear in an instant.
Many people didn't even react and felt that their eyes were completely dark.
While the guests were still confused and shocked, everyone in Xuanxin Zhengzong had already realized something.
"Yin Qi."
"There is something evil."
"a large amount."
"Prepare for war!"
The four elders were filled with vitality, their robes fluttering, and the eighteen founding deacons were in full formation.
After dealing with dead people for so many years, I am very familiar with this smell.
The new disciples are confused and confused, but the jade robes are all magic weapons, and most of them are also sensitive.
The disciples who originally had martial arts skills were ready, and some like the old minister of Yan State also rolled up their sleeves.
Yan Chixia now knew what the Lord was waiting for, and looked towards a col in front of the mountain gate.
It was pitch black now and it was almost impossible to see anything. But Yan Chixia was not affected, and she could see clearly with a flash of light in her eyes.
In the mountain col, the yin energy is strong.
Yin energy is invisible and colorless, but if it is too strong, it will become concrete. The Yin Qi in the mountain col is like this, it has become like black mist.
A huge and gloomy pass loomed in the black mist.
"gate of hell."
Yan Chixia took a breath of air.
This was the second time he'd seen something like this.
The last time was in Xishan, Huizhou, when he just debuted. Today, I saw Kaishan sect again.
"Elders, deacons, and disciples obey orders." Yan Chixia shouted.
"Sect Master." Everyone responded quickly.
"The sect's dojo has its own magic circle for protection, but because it is newly established, it requires people to guard it before it can take effect." Yan Chixia is the founding master and is now connected to the Maoshan dojo.
"The four elders guard the front and rear halls, and the eighteen deacons and their disciples are divided into the alchemy rooms of each side hall. No one can leave the hall without permission."
"Yes." Everyone said yes.
In fact, many people want to go outside the mountain gate to meet the enemy, especially the new disciples, who want to make meritorious deeds. But the more critical the moment, the more important it is to obey the orders of the sect master. Especially at this critical moment, not even the willful Princess Wenzhu has any thoughts of disobedience.
The disciples entered each hall respectively, and the main hall immediately glowed with glow.
"Everyone." Yan Chixia turned to the guests, "Something big is going to happen in Maoshan. Please take shelter in the palace for the time being."
Visitors from all walks of life looked at each other.
The light in the main hall looks quite magical, so it’s not impossible to go in and visit. But the problem is that after waiting for almost a day, he finally spoke again. But when they came up, they were told to hide, not understanding what was going on.
"What's the big deal?"
"Why hide?"
"Sect Master Yan, please make it clear..."
Everyone asked, and some even secretly guessed whether a new opportunity had arrived.
"There is an evil spirit coming to Maoshan." Yan Chixia gave the answer.
Everyone was stunned.
"To put it simply, they are ghosts and monsters." Yan Chixia said, "You must know that I have been killing ghosts and exorcising evil spirits over the years and have made many grievances. Now that the Xuanxin Zongzong has been established, it should have alarmed those things."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Many people know more or less what Yan Chixia and the four tomb robber factions have done over the years. In addition, I just witnessed the magic miracle with my own eyes, so how could I not understand it.
There was a roaring sound, and many flames lit up all around.
All kinds of lights inside and outside the Taoist temple were all lit up at the same time.
Everyone was startled at first, and then they saw the gate of hell through the firelight.
The gloomy pass, the howling wind.
Countless ghost fires lit up at the gate of hell, and bursts of crying and howling sounds came from the bottom of the mountain.
Shadows shone brightly under the pass, and a large group of wandering souls and resentful spirits appeared.
Although it has the appearance of a human being, anyone who looks at it can tell that it is not a human being.
"ghost?"
"Is this what it looks like?"
"Almost like a human being..."
Some people exclaimed, some were curious.
Yan Chixia's expression was solemn.
If it's just these things that attack, there's nothing to worry about. Even if he doesn't take action, these warriors can protect themselves.
But the gate of hell is different.
Together with the two realms of Yin and Yang, there is no telling what else will come out. That time in Huizhou, if Shangjun hadn't been there, it would have been impossible to cope with it.
Most of these people in the world have no experience in dealing with ghosts, and even if they have encountered them, they may not know about them. Today she came to Xuanxin Zhengzong again, and Yan Chixia didn't want outsiders to get involved.
"Everyone, you..." After Yan Chixia finished explaining, she was trying to lure everyone to take refuge, but she was suddenly startled when she saw the expressions of all the guests.
Not only were everyone not afraid, but they were even more excited than the others. His teeth were grinning and his eyes were glowing green, looking more like a ghost than those ghosts. If it weren't for Yan Chixia's ability to identify ghosts, she would have thought that these guys were collectively possessed.
He ignored one thing. People in the world were generally stunned. Especially now, there are even more reasons not to hide.
"On such a happy day, there is an unexpected intruder, I should help you!"
"Master Yan, don't panic, we share the same hatred with the enemy today."
"I am from Maoshan..."
What the hell is going on at the foot of the mountain? It's all just luck and merit.
"Bold monster, you dare to offend Xuanxin Zongzong! You..."
"Stop talking nonsense, get out of the way, you're blocking me."
"Come on, kill them..."
Before Yan Chixia could make any further moves, a group of people rushed out. I'm afraid that if I run too slowly, I won't be able to grab the ghost's head.
