I practice the Tao by blind practice

Chapter 488 Natural Sword Bone
Above the sports plaza, the talent test is still going on.

The picture scroll in Zhang Yunshan's hand is called Sword Picture.

In the sword picture, there is a trace of the charm of Wan Jianzong passed down to Baojian Tomb.

Talented people, after seeing the sword picture, will be able to resonate with the charm contained in the picture after looking at it a little more.

To be honest, the method of cultivating immortals passed down by Wan Jianzong does not actually have any age restrictions.

It's just that people who are too old have too much worldly atmosphere and too mixed thoughts.

It is almost impossible for such a person to be recognized by Jianzhong and resonate with Jiantu.

On the contrary, young people are pure-minded and don't understand anything. They are like a blank sheet of paper that can be freely shaped.

Only such a person would have a certain chance of possessing the talent of cultivating immortals and sensing the charm of the sword mound contained in the sword picture.

People over the age of 16, unless they are not in contact with the world of mortals, otherwise, even if they are talented, they have been completely abolished.

Wan Jianzong has existed for countless years, this is their summed up experience.

It was also for this reason that Zhang Yunshan limited his age to between three and sixteen years old when he conducted the talent test.

The first batch of children did not detect a single person with talent. Although he was a little disappointed, it was acceptable.

After all, the talent of cultivating immortals is one in a million, and the group of children in front of them is only 30 to [-] people.

For each batch of children, the testing time shall not exceed 1 minute.

Soon, more than an hour passed.

More than a thousand children have been tested for talent.

It was still nothing, and Zhang Yunshan couldn't sit still because he hadn't found any seedlings of cultivators.

"Pause for a while, the group of children who have just completed the test, don't leave for now!"

With a dark face, Zhang Yunshan put away the sword picture in front of him, and stood up.

After instructing Yang Jin and the others, he randomly selected a few children from the group of children who had just completed the test in front of him, and called them to him.

"Can you read? Tell me, what do you know?" His eyes fell on an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, and he asked in a deep voice.

"I knew [-], [-], [-], [-] when I was three years old, and I started reading in kindergarten when I was four. I know not only Chinese, but also English."

"On weekdays, I either play games or watch live broadcasts."

"The young lady inside is so beautiful, she keeps calling me little brother, asking me to paint rockets for her, saying that she will marry me when I grow up."

……

At first, the boy was timid and a bit reluctant to let go.

But as he talked, when he talked about playing games and watching live broadcasts, he was in high spirits, and his energy immediately came back.

However, before he finished speaking, the dark-faced Zhang Yunshan interrupted him and asked him to step aside first.

Immediately afterwards, he called the other children over and questioned them carefully.

"I, Cao Nima, what new world do these children come from?"

"It's such a small size, and the mind is already so mixed."

"It should be simple, but I can't see it at all. I know a lot of messy things..."

With a face as black as the bottom of a pot, Zhang Yunshan had already started to scold his mother in his heart.

There is no one in ten thousand talents for cultivating immortals, this is indeed true.

But the city in front of me is from the New World, and the people living here have never tested their talents or experienced any screening.

Although he didn't say it clearly, Zhang Yunshan always felt in his heart that there should be a good chance of finding some good seedlings of cultivating immortals here.

But now, it turned out to be such a result, the child with a big fart has mixed thoughts...

At this moment, he was really powerless to complain and didn't know what to say.

Yang Jin and the others who were with him also looked at each other helplessly after seeing this scene.

This mission, they came here, the more seedlings they searched for, the more powerful they will be after returning to the sect.

If they couldn't find a person with the talent of cultivating immortals, they wouldn't know how to do business after returning to the sect!
After all, with such a result, no matter what the reason is, the Zongmen's senior management will definitely have opinions on them, thinking that they are perfunctory and not doing their best.

"Uncle, do you still need to continue the talent test?"

Several people stared at each other, and after a while, the female disciple asked, probing and asking.

"continue!"

Feeling weak, Zhang Yunshan waved his hand: "These children, although their minds are a bit mixed, but no matter whether they can find seedlings of cultivating immortals from them, things always have a beginning and an end, let's finish it!"

Having said that, he let out a long sigh, sat down cross-legged again, and opened the sword drawing in his hand.

Although the next talent test is still going on, the way Wan Jianzong and the others do things is obviously much more perfunctory than before.

They were too lazy to arrange the children into a fan shape, Yang Jin and the others led them to the open space in front of Zhang Yunshan, and let them look directly at the sword picture.

In less than 30 seconds, the inspection was completed. Zhang Yunshan waved his hand and let them disperse on their own.

In a small county like Liuyuan County, the number of children between the ages of three and sixteen is actually not many, that is, about 2 to [-].

After all, at that time, although the country opened up the second-child policy, it was impossible to buy a house, get married, or have children...

For a person with no family background, it is a problem to find someone to marry, so how can there be a second child!
Two or 30 people were tested at a time, and Zhang Yunshan and the others were busy.

There is still day and night in this world, and before you know it, the sun is setting and it is dusk.

The number of children who have been tested has exceeded [-].

It's a pity that they are still zero eggs, Xiuxian Miaozi, for the time being, they still haven't seen each other.

Another group of children were led to the open space.

Just like before, Zhang Yunshan opened the sword picture and let the children cast their eyes on the sword picture. At the same time, he listlessly glanced at the children in front of him.

When his eyes fell on a three or four-year-old girl who looked a little dull, his eyes were so bright that he couldn't move his eyes anymore.

The secret technique blessed his eyes, and in his line of sight, at the place where the jade pillow rested on the girl's head, there was a sword-shaped phantom the size of a little finger, looming, as if it was about to break through the barrier.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he lowered his head, stared at the sword drawing in front of him, and took a few careful glances.

He seemed to see the phantom of the sword mound above the sword map.

Somewhere, a rusty three-foot long sword was trembling, and at the same time, there were traces of purple light blooming from it.

"This is... Zixia Sword..."

"Natural sword bones, Zixia sword moves, Zixia sword that has been silent for thousands of years, this is the birth of the master!"

With an excited expression on his face, Zhang Yunshan couldn't control himself at all, and exclaimed directly.

As the most treasure passed down by the sect, countless spirit swords and fairy swords are buried in the sword mound.

Those with a little talent, who resonate with the sword sect, can only use a certain sword as the visualization target at most to cultivate themselves.

Those who are extremely talented can make a certain sword recognize its owner, truly appreciate its charm, and practice a thousand miles a day, as if with the help of a god.

According to Zhang Yunshan's knowledge, there are only three true supreme swords in the Sword Tomb.

And this Zixia Sword is just one of them.

Through the sword diagram, he confirmed again and again that the sword that was trembling constantly and with purple awns blooming was really very likely to be the Empress of Zixia Sword.

With a swish, he stood up.

"Little girl, what's your name? Where are your parents? Where are they?" Zhang Yunshan knelt down in front of the dull girl, and asked with a kind face.

"My... my surname is Li, and grandma always calls me Erya."

"Grandma said, my parents have gone far away."

"I also want to go to kindergarten to study like other children."

"But grandma is getting old, and she can't make much money just by picking up waste, so she can't send me to kindergarten..."

A little shy, the little girl kept her head down.

Although she looked a little dull, her words were quite clear.

"Reading and literacy is just a small problem."

"With your aptitude, joining my Wanjian sect is directly a true inheritance."

"Where's your grandma? Tell her to come here, I have something to talk to her about!" Hearing what the little girl said, Zhang Yunshan nodded and said.

"Uncle, grandma is over there!" Looking around, the little girl looked to the southeast.

She pointed at an old lady with white hair and a somewhat stooped figure, who looked extremely old, and said.

Zixia's sword moves, with natural sword bones, what it represents, several inner disciples naturally know.

With envy on his face, he looked at the little girl in front of him. She had just finished speaking. Yang Jin and the female disciple had already rushed over immediately and invited the old lady over.

"Several leaders, can I take my granddaughter away?"

"This child is pitiful. Two years ago, her parents, riding a motorcycle, fell under the cliff..."

Carrying a snakeskin bag, the old lady explained with a look of panic.

She has a rural hukou and has no pension. That is to say, the national policy is good. She has a monthly pension of [-] yuan, plus some money from picking up waste, so she can barely live.

As for the subsistence allowance, she's heard of that, but she's never seen it.

During this period of time, there was no place to spend the money, and the waste products she picked up by scavenging could not be sold at all.

She took her granddaughter with her, and she had a meal without a meal, and her life was extremely hard.

"Old man, your granddaughter is extremely talented, and she will directly enter our Wanjian sect."

"As for you, we will arrange a place for you in the nearest city."

"If your granddaughter's identity as a true disciple is confirmed, you can just wait and enjoy the blessings. At that time, it will be absolutely no problem to invite a large group of servants to serve you!"

With a refreshing smile on his face, Zhang Yunshan smiled and explained to the old lady.

The position of true disciple, within Wan Jianzong, is higher than his status as an inner sect deacon.

Naturally, he didn't mind, he sold it in front of the little girl's only relative.

"Ah..." After hearing Zhang Yunshan's words, the old lady froze on the spot.
