Chapter 4 Spirit Root Test
It was the first time for Sun Hao to visit the county town of Nanxian County. Compared with Lanlin Township, the county town had a high city wall, and the entire urban area was more than ten times larger than Lanlin Township. The county has a population of 200,000.
Entering the county from the main entrance, the high city wall is the two ancient characters "Nanxian" on the big earth. I can't recognize these two words at all. Sun Qiang was recuperating at home, and Gu Qiang, the mayor of Lanlin Town, led the team himself.
During the "Dragon Gate" period, Lanlin Town is absolutely safe, even if Feilongzhai had eaten Xiongxin Leopard's guts, he would not dare to make a moth at this time.
Because of the "Jumping Dragon Gate", Nanxian County is very crowded, which is worthy of a grand festival. There are people everywhere, and most of them are children. Presumably these children, like the children in Lanlin Town, come to gamble on the illusory fairy fate.
The government of Nan County has a mentality of reverence and fear for "Yuelongmen". He is not a doorman, but a capable candidate for the city lord's mansion organization.
Gu Qiang took a large group of children and lined up in a relatively neat line, and lined up on the right.
There are already many adults waiting in the queue, either signing up or waiting for the test results. Seeing Gu Qiang coming, many people greeted with smiles on their faces, "Old Gu, you brought so many people, don't say you brought all the school-age children in the town."
Gu Qiang handed over the roster that he had prepared earlier to the person in charge of the registration point, and replied with a smile, "Yes, I have brought all the suitable ones, so I will give them a chance."
"I think Lao Gu is scared." One of the crowd laughed, but his tone was sour. "I heard that there are children in Feilongzhai who have entered the fairy gate, tsk tsk..."
To be honest, Lanlin Town is one of the towns that dare to fight against Feilongzhai. Usually Gu Qiang is arrogant in front of these mayors.
"Number of people, forty-two, the oldest is fifteen, the youngest is six, the personnel are qualified, Old Gu, you wait outside first, and I will take them in." The person in charge of the registration point knew Gu Qiang, so he didn't talk nonsense. The children of the town said loudly, "Come in with me, be quiet, don't fall behind, don't make noise"
The children in the small town are a little confused, they have never seen the big world, this place is a bit big, the city lord's mansion is big, there are many people, the children follow along somewhat mechanically.
Standing in the middle of the child's height, Sun Hao looked around with both eyes, and his heart was a little nervous. Whether he has spiritual roots, immortal fate, Jackie Chan or snake in one fell swoop is closely related to the life and death of Lanlin Town, he couldn't help it nervous. The palms were a little sweaty, the heartbeat was a little faster, the blood was accelerating, and it seemed that I could hear the heartbeat of "dong dong dong".
Walking into the gate of the city lord's mansion, he saw the children queuing up from a distance.
A big house with four doors in total. The children who participated in the test entered through the two doors on the left and exited through the two doors on the right. It is not clear what is going on inside the house. However, Sun Hao found that all children who came out from the right They all looked frustrated, and some were still sobbing softly. Looking at their expressions, they knew that these were all losers. He is also a loser who has not passed the first test and has no spiritual roots.
The team moved forward slowly and regularly. Standing in front of the door, you can already see the scene inside the house. The house is very big, and the inside looks very spacious. At the head of the house, there are four tall chairs, four of whom are wearing blue robes The youths sat on chairs, and there was a table in front of each youth, which was not very high. Only, a strange ball was placed on the table in front of the first youth, and every child who entered had to touch the ball. There was only a cup of tea on the table in front of the other youths.
Sun Hao was a little surprised, the test is so simple?
The children go one by one and touch them.
After touching each one, the young man always shook his head with regret. It was only when a little girl with braids and a dirty face walked forward and pressed her hands to the strange ball, the strange ball suddenly began to emit light, emitting blue, red and golden rays of light.
The young man in charge immediately lifted his spirits and sang loudly, "Brother Yu, the three spirit roots of water, fire and metal, the strength of the spirit roots is excellent, qualified"
Hearing the words, the young man at the second table cheered up, and waved kindly to the unattractive little girl who looked about six or seven years old and was at a loss, "Little sister, come here, come here, let me touch it for you." bone age"
It seems that the girl is not over sixteen years old, and she can pass the test without touching her bone age, but Senior Brother Yu still reached out and groped the girl's head and back for a while, and then sang loudly, "Senior Brother Huang, seven-year bone age, qualified!" "
Brother Huang is also the young man at the third table with a kind face, beckoning to the little girl, "Come here, come here, don't be afraid, I'll ask you a few questions"
The little girl approached, and he asked softly, "Do you know the fairy gate?"
The little girl nodded.
"Do you like cultivating immortals?" He asked again.
But the little girl was a little confused, "Grandpa said it's good to cultivate immortality, I, I, I don't know..."
The young man didn't think it was disobedient, and sang loudly with a smile, "Qinglao, Nanxian, Xia Qingyu, a concubine from the Xia family, has three spiritual roots of water, fire, and gold, and her bone age is seven years old. She is qualified."
The last young man, Senior Brother Huang's elder Qing, said to the little braided girl expressionlessly, "Stand behind me, and test Xianyuan tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he kept silent and drank tea by himself.
The little girl obediently stood behind Qinglao's chair. At this moment, Sun Hao realized that there were four boys, one girl, and five children standing behind Qinglao's chair. Their little faces were blushing, and their joy could not be concealed.
Obviously these children should be disciples with spiritual roots.
Sun Hao understood that the key to testing the spiritual root is to make the strange ball shine.
Looking at the strange ball, his heartbeat became more and more violent, Sun Hao thought to himself, "I have practiced fire kung fu for many years, so I don't know if I can make this strange ball shine. Moreover, listening to what the examiner said about water and fire roots, I practiced fire kung fu. I don't know if there will be fire spirit roots?"
At this time, at the door, the little boy guarding the door shouted loudly, "Master Long, Lanlin Town, forty-two test boys, start the test now!"
Sun Hao's heart tightened when he heard this. The heartbeat accelerated again, and the beating sound of the heart "thump, thud, thud" rang in my ears.
Under the arrangement of the gatekeeper boy, the partners from Lanlin Town walked in one by one.
The first one, the test ball did not respond, Senior Brother Long shook his head.
The second one, Senior Brother Long shook his head
The third one, Senior Brother Long still shook his head
….
Soon, it came to the test of the playmate who often played with Sun Hao. Sun Hao's heartbeat quickened again.
Sun Wu, there is no spiritual root!
Sun Shan, there is no spiritual root!
Wu Tian, there is no spiritual root!
...
None of them have spiritual roots. Gu Yun, who was standing in front of Sun Hao, lost his confidence. Seeing himself, he turned around in frustration and whispered, "Brother Hao..."
At this time, the boy called out, "Next, Gu Yun"
Sun Hao shook Gu Yun's hand and gave an encouraging look "Go, you can do it"<
