Strange Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 265 Volume C: Willing to Give Up, Persistence

The monk surnamed Tian suddenly changed color, and his voice became a little hoarse: "Chen Huaisheng? Chen Huaisheng from Liao County?"

It can be said that since the Chonghua Sect moved to Yanzhou, the surrounding forces have taken action, and even used various relationships to learn about the basic situation of the Chonghua Sect from Dazhao, including the situation of important figures in the Chonghua Sect.

In this situation, Chen Huaisheng, who made a big splash in the Taoist meeting, naturally could not escape the attention of those who were interested.

Nearing the age of twenty, he had been wandering outside for many years, but he had not yet been accepted by the sect. From any angle, he was the kind of mediocre person who would soon become an ordinary Taoist seed.

But just like this, from a character who had difficulty even realizing the Tao, after entering Chonghua, he actually advanced to the sixth level of Qi Refining in three years, especially after a year and a half of seclusion, he broke through two levels in a row. His performance was jaw-dropping.

Tian Minggui naturally knew that he became one of the last three disciples of Shang Jiuling based on this performance, and the record of winning over and contacting Datuweizi and Dawang Town was all facilitated by this person.

But I didn't expect this guy to appear here, and even opened his eyes for Min Qingyu who was obviously lying.

It was a little hard to accept for a while, but seeing the other party's calm and composed attitude, Tian Minggui had to believe it.

"Are you Chen Huaisheng?"

"Of course, I guess no one would pretend to be me." Chen Huaisheng nodded: "Senior Tian, ​​the Chonghua Sect has always been kind to others and does not want to have unnecessary disputes with fellow practitioners. Please be careful with your words in the future..."

Hearing that the other party was soft but firm, but also revealed that he had no intention of embarrassing himself, Tian Minggui immediately took advantage of the situation and bowed: "Tian Mou has learned from your teachings, this matter is over, goodbye!"

As soon as the voice fell, he took advantage of the wind and disappeared outside the mountain pass in an instant.

The divine sense followed until it completely disappeared two miles away. Chen Huaisheng retracted his gaze and looked at Min Yusun, who was a little uneasy in front of him, "Senior Min."

Min Yusun bowed with a little embarrassment: "Meet Master Chen, I was arrogant before, please forgive me, I really had no choice but to do this,..."

Chen Huaisheng smiled and waved his hand: "I thought that after I was in seclusion for half a year, Master really accepted another little sister."

The woman also took off her bamboo hat and veil, her face was slightly red, and she said crisply: "Min Qingyu greets Master Chen, my father Meng Lang, please forgive me."

Chen Huaisheng's eyes and divine sense turned on the woman. She was at the second level of Qi Refining and 18 years old, which was not bad.

After all, it was not easy for this kind of self-exploration that could not even be considered a casual cultivator, and the family had no accumulation of cultivation, to achieve this step.

"Miss Min, you don't have to be polite. The Chonghua Sect does hope to recruit talents in Yanzhou. Maybe Miss Min will have a chance to join our Chonghua Sect in the future." Chen Huaisheng smiled gently.

Min Yusun felt a little regretful, but Min Qingyu was calm: "I heard that the Chonghua Sect only accepts disciples under the age of fourteen. Qingyu is already eighteen, so there must be no hope."

"That may not be so absolute. If you really have talent and sincerely admire our sect, it may not be impossible." Chen Huaisheng shook his head, "Eighteen years old is not considered old. I was almost twenty when I joined our sect, and I didn't even succeed in enlightenment at that time."

The father and daughter of the Min family were very happy.

And they did hear about Chen Huaisheng's story, so they had a glimmer of hope.

However, the Chonghua Sect only accepted innate Dao seeds under the age of fourteen in the past few rounds of recruiting disciples in Hebei, and refused to accept those who had already enlightened and refined Qi.

This disappointed many people.

Over the years, there have naturally been some geniuses in various families and clans, but their ages have long passed fourteen years old.

But if you can rely on your own exploration, realize the Tao and refine Qi successfully, and even reach a certain level, you naturally hope to have the opportunity to go to the next level.

There are even many people who went to Dazhao to seek opportunities, but more people did not have such opportunities and struggled in Hebei.

Seeing that the Chonghua Sect came, everyone was full of hope, but was hit hard by this blow. Many people were disappointed, resentful, lonely, and full of resentment towards the Chonghua Sect.

Now this person was originally a disciple of the headmaster, but he personally stated that the Chonghua Sect did not completely refuse to accept disciples when they were fourteen years old, which gave the father and daughter hope again.

Chen Huaisheng's statement was not made up by himself. For now, the Chonghua Sect must mainly recruit underage disciples. Such disciples have better plasticity, which is the case for all sects.

As for those over fourteen, unless they are particularly outstanding and have shown recognition and loyalty to the sect, otherwise, those at the Qi Refining level will not be easily accepted.

As for whether you can reach the foundation-building level, you can enter as a guest official, but if you really reach the foundation-building level, whether you are willing to enter the Chonghua Sect and be bound by it is another matter.

"Do you take what the Taoist said seriously?" Min Yusun knew that it was inappropriate to ask this question at this time, but the matter was of great importance, so he still wanted to confirm it.

"Of course." Chen Huaisheng glanced at the other party, and then looked at the girl in front of him, "Your daughter is at the second level of Qi Refining, which is not bad for this age, especially for practicing to this level on her own, which is quite rare. It is not impossible for her to join our sect, but such things are not something I can decide,..."

"But Taoist Chen, you must have the right to recommend, right?"

The girl who had remained silent when her father and the cultivator surnamed Tian were arguing with each other before became active at this time, making Chen Huaisheng feel that he seemed to have misjudged her again.

"Well, yes, but..." Before Chen Huaisheng finished speaking, the girl immediately followed up: "Little sister knows that you must be excellent in all aspects, spiritual roots, Taoist bones, character, little sister thinks that I am not bad enough to meet the conditions, but I also know that not everyone who meets these conditions can get such an opportunity, so I just ask Taoist Master to give little sister a chance to show off."

The word "little sister" caught Chen Huaisheng off guard.

It seems that using this title has brought him and the other party closer. Will he call him Brother Chen next?

But it is difficult for Chen Huaisheng to refuse this kind of address. He is also quite respectful and polite to himself. And it must be said that the woman in front of him is in line with Chen Huaisheng's aesthetics.

Tall and even figure, not fat or thin, especially this face is full and even, thick and light.

A teardrop mole under the left corner of the eye suddenly makes this girl have a bit more cat-like aura like a charm cat.

The brows were slightly raised, and her skin was not particularly white, but a smooth and soft flesh-pink color, which also showed that this woman had a bit of stubbornness in her character and would not give up until she achieved her goal.

A wide brown-red cloak was covered over the purple horse-faced skirt. Mi Li took it off, letting her long black hair fall down and hang on her shoulders, adding a bit of heroic flavor.

Chen Huaisheng took a deep look at the other party and said lightly: "If there is a chance, I will naturally recommend you. Your conditions are indeed good."

Chen Huaisheng's indifferent words made Min Qingyu feel a little uncomfortable.

She thought that her appearance was definitely a natural beauty. In the Fuyang Dao cultivation world, her reputation was not small, otherwise Tian Minggui's apprentice would not have been so desperate.

She also felt that the other party was very interested in her appearance. In her opinion, she had expressed her attitude, and the other party should show some interest no matter what, but she still underestimated the other party's self-discipline and self-control.

"Master Chen, where are you going in Cuijiaji? I am very familiar with this area, including the nearby Zhaigu Road and Tangshui Road. If you don't mind, let me lead the way for you, and it will be much more convenient for you..."

Min Yusun was much more shameless than his daughter. Without waiting for Chen Huaisheng to agree, he said to himself: "In addition, Tian Minggui will definitely not give up. It is not safe for me to follow me. I hope Master Chen can lend a hand and protect me. The Min family will be grateful..."

Seeing that Min Yusun and Min Qingyu both bowed and thanked at the same time, Chen Huaisheng didn't understand the thoughts of the father and daughter.

This clearly wanted Min Qingyu to join the Chonghua Sect, thinking that as long as he climbed up his thick leg, he would get what he wanted.

No matter how Chen Huaisheng declined and explained that he was going to Dazhao to keep the appointment, the father and daughter of the Min family refused to let go and had to follow Chen Huaisheng and his party, otherwise Min Qingyu might fall into the clutches of Tian Minggui, and the responsibility would be Chen Huaisheng's.

Chen Huaisheng was helpless and could only let the other two follow him. He didn't believe that the other two could really follow him to Dazhao.

If they really followed him to Dazhao, he would get rid of them when he arrived in Dazhao, and Tian Minggui would not dare to run to Dazhao to make trouble.

Once you pass the pass from Cuiji Town, you will enter the territory of Zhaigu Road.

Yanzhou Six Roads, Zhangchi Road, Weihuai Road, Zhaigu Road, Tangshui Road, Fuyang Road, and Hanshan Road.

Among them, Zhangchi Road is the first avenue, located west of Yanzhou Six Roads near the main ridge of Wuxing Mountain. Zhangshui and Fengchi are located in Zhangchi Road, with the largest area and the largest population, exceeding three million.

Weihuai Road is next, south of Zhangchi Road and adjacent to Jinzhou in the west.

Then there is Fuyang Road.

Fuyang Road is located in the northernmost part, adjacent to the five roads of Youzhou in the north. It has a large area, but its population can only rank fifth among the six roads of Yanzhou, not as good as Zhaigu Road and Tangshui Road, and only slightly more than Hanshan Road.

Hanshan Road is located at the northwest end, west of Fuyang Road, and has penetrated deep into the middle section of Wuxing Mountain. It has a population of only more than one million, but its area is second only to Zhangchi Road and Fuyang Road, but it is mainly mountainous, and a large part of the middle section of Wuxing Mountain belongs to Hanshan Road.

Facing the father and daughter who followed him closely, Chen Huaisheng was initially helpless and a little disgusted, but as he walked along the way, his impression of the father and daughter changed.

It's nothing. The father and daughter are too familiar with the situation in Youzhou and even Hebei. And it seems that they are determined to completely surrender to the Chonghua Sect, so they are particularly good at speaking and dare to speak.

Many situations that the Chonghua Sect, including Chen Huaisheng, originally knew became clear through the explanation of the father and daughter.

He also learned a lot about many situations that the clans in Datuweizi and Dawang Town were vague about or kept silent about, and he has a deeper understanding of many situations in Hebei.

"So, many people seem to be warm to our Chonghua Sect on the surface, but in fact they are still hiding and reserving." Chen Huaisheng sneered, "Then Mr. Min, you and your daughter are so determined, aren't you afraid of violating the taboos of other clans?"

*****

On the first day of the new year, Lao Rui wishes all brothers a happy new year! I wish you a bright future and a happy family!
