Slow and immortal

Chapter 153

Chapter 152

Which house do you belong to?Xiao Yao was really stumped by the questioning of the boy who used his nose as his eyes.

I remember that when Elder Ma gifted the small courtyard to her a hundred years ago, he said that the courtyard would be his personal property from now on, and she could choose the name as she wished.But I didn't plan to stay in the Qin family for too long, and I would return to Taigu after giving birth, so I haven't named the small courtyard yet.

The young man saw her confused face, unable to answer why for a long time, and gradually became impatient, "How can someone not even know which courtyard they live in? Could it be that they are new to the mansion? I advise you to quickly find the courtyard you belong to. Here That's not where you should stand."

The young man spoke quite loudly, and in this quiet courtyard before dawn, he conveyed every word very clearly, which attracted all the disciples in the front courtyard to look sideways and whisper.

"Which courtyard is this, standing in front of the ring so arrogantly?"

"A new face, I haven't heard that she is probably a newcomer to the mansion? Looking at her clothes, you can tell that she is not a disciple of the Diyuan, and she is a country bumpkin who doesn't know where she came from. It is estimated that her status is low and no one is willing to teach the rules."

"It turns out that he is a newcomer. After suffering two losses, he will naturally learn to behave. Let's just watch the show."

……

Faced with these sudden sympathy, contempt, or gloating attentions, Xiao Yao was a little puzzled for a moment, whether she still needs to be allowed to stand in front of this ring emotionally?Don't you love to stand where you stand?Even in a sect that pays attention to etiquette like Xianyumen, I haven't used etiquette to strictly restrain me. It's not like here, where the fighting method is even particular about where to stand.

However, she does as the Romans do, and she never thought of being unique. After thinking for a while, she finally uttered four words: "Liuxiangyuan... right?"

"Oh... so it's Liuxiang Garden," the boy meaningfully looked at her a few more times, and pointed to the largest team in the corner, "Here, over there."

"Thank you."

Xiao Yao thanked her and walked towards the corner, she just turned around when she heard several titters, she looked up and saw that except for the men and women in Liuxiangyuan with embarrassing faces, many others covered their mouths and snickered, looking Look at them with compassion.

When she stood in front of the group of people, someone murmured: "Shame!", there were about a dozen people in the team who ignored her, all of them were serious, and naturally they didn't look good.

Xiao Yao has long been very open about the warmth and coldness of people in the world of cultivating immortals, and will not be entangled in anything.Instead, she suddenly saw a dozen faces more or less similar to herself, and a sense of subtlety rose, which made her tremble unconsciously.

However, not everyone in the entire compound has the mentality of watching the show with superiority.Among a group of direct disciples, there was a young man with a tall and thin body and tight lips. Ever since Xiao Yao appeared, he had stayed on her with a serious expression and never moved away.

A disciple from the same courtyard beside him gently poked his side with his elbow, "Qin Lan, why have you kept your face so sullen, did you see that woman just now? She is indeed a concubine from Liuxiangyuan, so she stayed there." The stunned expression is really stupid."

"She's stupid?" The man raised his eyebrows, his eyes were full of contempt, but he didn't refer to Xiao Yao, but to the fellow courtyard next to him, "Hmph, I think you are the ones who are stupid. Taboo."

The same courtyard next to him was hit like this, and he couldn't react. He opened and closed his mouth for a long time, and finally touched his nose to stand obediently and stop talking.

And Qin Lan frowned into a Sichuan character, and inadvertently complained in his mouth. If someone was close to his lips, he could hear it, "Tsk, why is a craftsman coming to join in the fun, trouble!"

As the sun rose, more and more disciples from the clan gathered in the front yard.Xiao Yao observed carefully for a while, and found that no one really stood on the field in front of the ring.When Qin Shuang and Qin Zi led Xuanyuan Yi to appear, they stood firmly in front of the ring, and acted like an emperor in person.Especially on the left and right sides of a beautiful and weak woman that she has never seen before, there are two men in black clothes with similar looks, who are constantly chasing away the disciples of other courtyards who are already standing far enough away. Suddenly: So it is...

It has not been seen for a hundred years, Qin Zi, Qin Jun and others have advanced from the early stage of the golden core to the middle stage of the golden core, and although Qin Shuang and Xuanyuan Yi have not yet reached the state of the great perfection of the golden core stage, they can also see that they will be in the middle stage of the golden core stage. There will be a breakthrough in decades, if not a hundred years.As for the weak and beautiful woman, she is also a late Jindan cultivation base.On the other hand, I have reached the late stage of Jindan 200 years ago, but now I am still far from the state of Dzogchen. I can't help but sigh that my journey to immortality is really long and bumpy.

I still remember that it was said in the mansion that anyone who is below the Nascent Soul stage in the clan can participate, but right now, there is not a single disciple of the Foundation Establishment stage in the courtyard, and all the disciples are above the Golden Core Stage. Also rare.It can be seen that the people present are all the best of the courtyards, and they are also the so-called proud sons of heaven among outsiders.But after Xuanyuan Yi and the others appeared, the proud sons of heaven who were present immediately fell silent, and all their eyes were focused on them. Yin and fierce, all kinds of beings are revealed one by one.

Xiao Yao frowned unconsciously, it seems that the secret struggles in each house and courtyard of these big families are more serious than sects, and the atmosphere is hard to make people feel happy.Thinking of Xianyumen, although it may not be very good, but at least there is Master Mei who seems to be unkind but teaches his disciples carefully, and I can't help but feel warm, and I don't know if Master can break through the bottleneck and step into the holiday school in one fell swoop. In the realm of transforming gods, even if the Japanese returned to Taigu, Master and the old man should have ascended to the upper realm, and I don't know when we will see you again.

"Boom!" A gong sounded.She was still thinking about her master, but she heard someone ordering: "The time has come! All disciples in each courtyard listen to the order!"

In an instant, the disciples of all the courtyards looked seriously at the Yuanying elder of the tribe who suddenly appeared in front of him, who was over fifty years old and had a yellow complexion and yellow teeth, and listened carefully.

"Today's competition takes turns to compete in the ring. Those whose names are called stand on the ring to accept the challenge, and they are the challengers; and those who are under the ring voluntarily go to the ring to challenge, and they are the challengers. If the challenger can withstand the challenge of the three challengers, Then you will be eligible to participate in the 'Treasure Hunt', and a new challenger will be selected from among you. However, if the challenger loses in less than three games, he will lose the qualification to participate. At the same time, the challenger who wins will be To become a new challenger, you only need to accept two more challenges to be eligible to participate. The competition is judged by one party admitting defeat or one party falling down. Yin Ancestral Hall imposes convulsions to death, do you understand?"

After finishing speaking, the elder looked around and saw that everyone had no objection, so he nodded and said, "Now that I heard clearly, the competition officially begins! Get the lottery box!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a servant beside him respectfully handed over a big red wooden box with a round hole big enough to put his hand in. The elder took out a small wooden sign from it, glanced at it and read aloud,

"The first person to take the stage! Liuxiangyuan, Hong Wen, Qin Shuang!"

Wow, there was an uproar all around, none of the disciples of the courtyards expected that the first person to compete would be the most ruthless one.

Qin Shuang maintained that frosty face that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, lightly jumped onto the ring, and cupped his hands all around, "Qin Shuang is waiting for you brothers and sisters to challenge at any time."

I don't know if it's because she is cold, so the atmosphere on the stage is also quiet and cold. Although everyone below has made some moves, no one dares to challenge on stage.Except that Qin Zi, who appeared with her, seemed to want to compete, but was held back by Qin Chuan and Qin Jun at the same time. After struggling secretly for a while, after sneaking a look at Xuanyuan Yi's side face, he bit the powder angrily. Lips endured.

Seeing that the time for a stick of incense was about to pass, the elder raised his eyebrows, as if not surprised, but shouted again at the top of his voice: "If no one comes up to the challenge, then Qin Shuang will be considered victorious without a fight, and won the participation!" 'Treasure Hunt' qualification!"

In the end, no one came up for the challenge, and after a stick of incense, he rang the gong directly, "Qin Shuang won without a fight!"

Xiao Yao saw that Qin Shuang flew down the ring gracefully again, her expression was still icy, but there seemed to be a flash of disappointment in her eyes.

"The next challenger..." The elder began to take out a wooden sign from the mahogany box again, "Wei Mingju! Master Xiao!"

At this time, there was a completely opposite situation to the uproar just now—silence, and the disciples from all the courtyards looked at each other: Who is this called?
Only Xiao Yao's eyelids twitched: Could this be calling herself?But which courtyard is Weimingju?She was also a little uncertain for a while, so she wanted to wait and see if anyone else would come on stage.

The elder saw that no one came up to the ring for a long time, and he couldn't help but looked at the crowd in surprise. After Luoluo looked down, his eyes finally stayed on Xiao Yao, and a smile instantly appeared on his face, and he waved to her.
"Master Xiao, it's your turn to compete."

All of a sudden, everyone's eyes shot at Xiao Yao, as if seeing something incredible.

This time Xiao Yao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She actually asked Yuanying Da Neng to call her name twice, which was a bit disrespectful, so she walked towards the ring and apologized to the elder: "Your junior is rude, I was too nervous just now, I still look at senior Don't mind."

The elder was not annoyed at all, instead he showed his yellow teeth and said with a smile: "Master Xiao, don't worry about it. Speaking of which, you are busy refining weapons all day long. I am afraid that you haven't had time to name your courtyard, so the Qin residence temporarily called it 'Wei Ming'. Ju', it’s a matter of fate that I don’t recognize it. By the way, the moon-leaving mace that Master Xiao forged for the old man a few days ago was really beyond my expectation. Encountered here, I feel that I should invite him personally, Master Xiao will invite me to sit in the courtyard for a while after the competition is over, and let me thank you."

Xiao Yao never liked these social gatherings. If it was in her own courtyard, she could use the excuse of refining weapons to shirk. Now that Yiyuanying is able to invite herself in front of so many people, she can't show his face, so she can only pull the corners of her lips. He said with a smile: "Senior, you are polite. This is the junior's honor. After the competition, I will ask you to lead the way."

Seeing her promise, the elder was satisfied, and his sallow face became more rosy, so he said in a good mood: "Hehe, it is my honor to invite a heavenly master like Master Xiao to be your guest. Don't worry, the competition will be very smooth." It will be over soon, forgive these little bastards for not daring to hit you hard."

With just one sentence, the faces of all the disciples present at the scene became very ugly. Your old man said so, who would dare to go up and challenge them?
It's no wonder that they are blind-sighted, Xiao Yao has lived in seclusion since entering Qin's house, even if she occasionally sees people during the refining work, it's not their turn to be seen by these Jindan stage juniors, most of them are seen by their elders.So who would have thought that such a bumpkin-like female cultivator was actually the sixth master in the Qin Mansion with the same status as the five masters of Wujitang.

May I ask how this competition is going to compare? !
