Modern orphan Leng Youran transmigrated into the cultivation world, becoming an immortal's second-generation child. She safely grew into a soft and cute five-year-old darling.
She origina...
Chapter 117: Bringing Back the Imperial Capital
Liuyun Village has been very lively these days. Either a married daughter brings her children back to her parents' home, or a daughter-in-law brings her relatives' children to live with them. All of a sudden, there are a lot of children under the age of fifteen in the village, and the sound of children chattering is everywhere, which makes the usually quiet mountain village suddenly lively. No matter how lively the village is, it can't disturb the two brothers and sisters in the bamboo house. At this time, the two brothers and sisters in the bamboo house are sitting opposite each other, feeling helpless. In fact, they are also a little worried about the current situation. They don't want to leave like this and leave behind the cause and effect, but if they take those children with spiritual roots with them, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble. However, they can't not do it. They remembered that Wu He said that he was only responsible for selecting these children and bringing them back to the imperial capital.
Originally, these matters did not require him, a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, to come here. However, when he passed by here, he felt that something was strange here, so he asked the disciple in charge of this area to go to another town, while he went to the deep mountains to check. Unfortunately, he was caught by Master Mo Yang who came there to check as soon as he arrived there. So Leng Youran and the others discussed taking these children to the imperial capital to see which sect was recruiting disciples. If it was a sect they knew, they would feel more at ease.
After the two of them had discussed it, they went back to their own rooms. Leng Youran returned to her bamboo house and sat cross-legged on the bed. She casually set up a formation around her. After the formation was activated, she appeared in the space. Leng Youran in the space was not idle either. She refined some fourth-level and above pills. During this period, in addition to the ones she gave to Senior Brother Mo Yang, she also consumed a lot of them. She didn't know how long he and Senior Brother would stay here, so she had to prepare more pills. In addition to the pills here, he felt that he should also prepare more talismans. After all, they were in this... There is a lack of spiritual power, so it is better to prepare some life-saving things. Therefore, she was not idle during these seven days. Seven days in the outside world is seven years. During this time in the space, in addition to making talismans and refining pills, her cultivation could not stop. Time passed slowly in the busyness, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye. Leng Youran walked out of his bamboo house, smiled at Master Mo Yang who came out of the house next to him, and went to the threshing ground outside the village. At this time, the threshing ground was already crowded with people. Not only the children of Liuyun Village were brought here, but also the people around
Children from several villages were brought here, as well as children of their relatives, and children of their relatives. The news spread from one to another, so for a while, the following scene appeared in the square: the small square was crowded with people of all ages. A rough estimate of the number of children was three or four hundred. The brother and sister looked at each other and gave a wry smile.
Sigh! With so many children, they must be busy today. The two walked to the front of the team together. Leng Youran glanced at the crowd below, a little unsure how to start. After all, this was her first time experiencing such things, and it was Master Mo Yang who had experience. He just glanced at the crowd below, raised his hands slightly and pressed them down, and the crowd immediately quieted down. Seeing this, the two were very satisfied. Master Mo Yang finally spoke, and his cold and indifferent voice rang out in the square, "Everyone, be quiet. I will now explain the rules.
First, all children who are fifteen years old or above should leave on their own accord.
Second, I hope these children will volunteer to take part in this test.
Third, the remaining children lined up in two pairs and lined up in front of me and my junior sister.
Fourth, we will take away all the selected children. We will take these children to the imperial capital, and then let the cultivators there take them to the world of immortal cultivation. You can rest assured about this.
Fifth, we will leave twenty taels of silver for every child who is selected, but I hope that each village will still help them. After all, these children may come back when they have achieved success in their studies, so everyone should know what I want to say.
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd suddenly became agitated, but it only took a quarter of an hour before the crowd was divided into two groups, one group was the group of children under fifteen years old, and the other group was the families of those children.
Leng Youran's spiritual sense swept over the two pairs of children, and she quickly moved through the crowd. By the time she returned to the front of the group, she had dragged five or six children out of the two groups. These children only felt a gentle force pulling them out of the group. By the time they realized what was happening, they were already out of the group. They knew why this was happening. They had all just turned fifteen, but everyone had a lucky streak, so they stayed in the group hoping to get away with it. But they didn't expect the immortal to recognize them at a glance and single them out one by one. For a moment, the villagers looked at the two immortals in front with renewed respect. Master Mo Yang spoke again: "Now, starting from the front, the test will begin here one by one. You don't need to do anything. During this time, just empty your mind and don't think about anything else. Place your hand on the spirit stone on the table. You can begin now."
As soon as the words fell, the two of them sat on the chairs specially prepared for them. In front of Leng Youran was a little girl about eight or nine years old. It was Yaya, who was very familiar with them. She stood in front of Leng Youran, smiled sweetly at her, and said to Leng Youran who was sitting there with a playful look, "Sister Youran, I also want to be as powerful as you. Even if I don't have spiritual roots, I will live happily." Leng Youran looked at the little girl, touched her little head and comforted her, "Sister knew that Yaya was a good girl. Come and put your hand on the spirit stone. Don't think about anything, don't do anything. Well, just like this, close your eyes and feel it slowly. Yes, that's it." Leng Youran looked at the spirit stone with no reaction and felt a little lost. When she was about to say it was okay, the spirit stone slowly lit up. A red light appeared on the spirit stone, followed by a green light.
Then there was another golden light, and the three lights echoed with each other. Seeing this, Leng Youran smiled brightly and said softly, "Ya Ya, all right, you can open your eyes now. Come here, tell me your age, and I'll register with you. You passed." Ya Ya, who was standing at the table, was immediately excited when she heard that he passed. She chatted with Leng Youran in a chattering voice. Leng Youran picked up a pen and paper and carefully wrote down Ya Ya's information on the paper. The paper was neatly written:
Dawu Dynasty, Liuyun Village, Liu Xueping, female, 8 years old, fire,
Wood, gold three spiritual roots,
After recording the simple information, Yaya, oh, no, now it is Liu Xueping standing behind it, began to detect the next child, but the next dozen or so children did not have spiritual roots, which is also a normal phenomenon in seeking a group.
If a few children with spiritual power could appear in this place lacking spiritual power, it would be remarkable. Compared with their calmness, the villagers standing aside were a little restless. For a moment, the crowd became a little agitated. Master Mo Yang frowned and said lightly, "Villagers who have objections, please leave. If you still want to wait, please be quiet." As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd suddenly became quiet again. What a joke! They didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the immortal. They didn't feel anything in front of these two people before, but now they dared not be so unscrupulous. So Leng Youran and Master Mo Yang... They sat here for a whole day, but only half of the children had been tested, and the other half had not been tested. Leng Youran asked them to wait until tomorrow to continue the test. More than 300 children were tested today, but only six passed. Looking at the children standing in front of them, they were a little surprised, because among these six people, except for Yaya and another little boy who had three spiritual roots, and two children who had four spiritual roots, there were actually two who had double spiritual roots. Such a probability made them feel a little surprised that there were so many children with spiritual roots in this place with a lack of spiritual power.
The next day, the two of them were busy all day before they finished testing all the children. They found a total of twenty children with spiritual roots, including four children with five spiritual roots, one girl and three boys; five children with four spiritual roots, two boys and three girls; and six children with three spiritual roots, all of which were boys. There were four children with double spiritual roots, and among the four double spiritual roots, there were two boys and two girls. What made them happiest was that there was a child with a single fire spiritual root, a delicate six-year-old boy named Yu Lin. Leng Youran took out the silver he had exchanged from the town a few days ago from his storage bag, and also took out two low-level magic weapons in exchange. These two low-level magic weapons were exchanged by her in the market before. These low-level magic weapons were two white jade hairpins. The hairpins looked very beautiful. She came across them when she was shopping in the market last time. She was planning to buy them back for her mother, but now she has no choice but to take them out and use them first! Leng Youran and the other person looked at these little guys and handed the silver in their hands to the children one by one, asking them to take the silver to their parents. After saying goodbye to their parents, they would take these little guys to the imperial capital early tomorrow morning to see which sect had selected these children and then make plans.
Early the next morning, Leng Youran took out her flying boat, which was specially made by her father. They did not need to use spiritual power on this flying boat. She installed twelve low-grade spirit stones in a special place for spirit stones on the flying boat, and then set off with the group of children. In three days, the group landed outside the city wall of the imperial capital.
Leng Youran and his friend, along with twenty children, walked into the gate of the imperial capital in a mighty procession. A team of soldiers was guarding the gate. The team leader saw them and quickly came to greet them. He clasped his fists and asked loudly, "Are you two bringing these children here to participate in the selection of immortals and to choose immortal children?" Leng Youran nodded to signal her to lead the way. The group came to the gate of the imperial city. After handing these people over to the reception attendants, the team leader left. Behind Leng Youran and his friend, followed by twenty or so children, they walked towards the city in a mighty procession.
According to the attendant who led the way, today was the last day and the immortals would arrive tomorrow, so they could only wait here for one night.
Early the next morning, Leng Youran and his companion met the so-called immortal. Leng Youran looked at the group of people and smiled. It was really a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road!
