Seeing all the outer disciples looking at him eagerly, Bai Qi smiled slightly and said: "The sect recruits outer disciples once every ten years, and each time there are no more than a hundred people. Therefore, twenty of the twenty-eight small peaks are used for living. Almost half of it is empty, as is the case with Xuri and Xinyue Peak where you live this time."
There are about forty male monks and about thirty female monks here. At first, everyone was worried that the living conditions would be poor and crowded, but when they heard that there were only thirty or forty people living on a mountain peak, they began to worry again. It would be too deserted.
In Bai Qi’s introduction, the Chuan Yun boat shuttled through floating white clouds and soaring cranes, and soon arrived at a mountain of three to four hundred feet high. It is said to be a small peak, but it is actually quite high. .
The peaks are tall and beautiful, lined with green trees, and you can also see the medicinal fields that have been opened up. Bai Qi smiled and introduced: "This is Xinyue Peak. There are hundreds of palaces and caves on it. But you have to wait for the entrance ceremony before you can go to the General Affairs Hall to choose. Now you can live in those caves on the mountainside. ”
After putting the female monk down, he saw the deacon in charge of general affairs from Xinyue Peak coming to make arrangements. Bai Qi drove Chuanyunzhou to another mountain peak not far away. This mountain peak was several times higher than Xinyue Peak. Ten feet away, the mountain becomes even more steep, which is Xuri Peak.
When Shi Xuan got off Chuanyunzhou, he saw the deacon in charge of general affairs there arranging handymen to take the disciples to their respective caves. He was very tired today, and the new disciples did not bother to chat and hurried back to their rooms. Went to rest.
Shi Xuan previously thought that it was too deserted for thirty or forty people to live on a mountain peak, but when he actually moved in, he realized that this was not the case. Not to mention the one principal and two deputy deacons in charge of general affairs, there were hundreds of maids and maids alone. , well, they cannot all be called human beings. Many of them are mountain spirits and flower monsters, and they are all very simple and simple, waiting for orders. There are also cooks, gardeners, farmers, etc.
The people who were assigned to Shixuan Cave were two servants and two maids. The three of them and one flower were all smart masters. The flower was a big rose, but it could speak human words and do cleaning work. She is no worse than a human maid, and her long branches are very flexible.
Shi Xuan insisted on falling asleep to regain his energy after finishing evening classes.

The main peak of Penglai Island, Tianshu Peak, which is more than 2,000 feet high, is wrapped in thick clouds and mist. From time to time, you can see through them the simple, elegant, majestic, or dusty buildings on the peak. Among them, immortal birds and auspicious animals roamed in twos and threes, and from time to time, immortals riding clouds of various colors and various magical weapons landed on the mountain.
In the Jietian Hall at the top of Tianshu Peak, there are more than ten monks standing or sitting in the broad and ancient hall.
"Why did you rashly change the sect's rules? Who gave you Mo Yuan this right?!" An old monk with white hair and white eyebrows wearing a red fire-colored robe was saying angrily in the middle of the hall. There were several vivid stripes on his robe. Fire dragon.
The cold-faced Lei Lord Mo Yuan sat expressionlessly on the futon next to him. Hearing the old monk's accusation, he responded calmly: "I don't remember any of the sect's precepts that cannot change the way of the ceremony. ”
"You..." The old monk didn't know how to respond.
Another middle-aged, thin Taoist priest stood up and said with a gloomy face: "There is no such thing, but why did you change the method of the Dharma meeting without informing us elders? There must be something wrong in doing it in private!"
"What do we have to do with you?" Mo Yuan glanced at the two elders coldly and expressed his meaning briefly.
Mo Yuan’s meaning is very clear in front of these familiar people. Are you the host of the Dharma conference or am I the host of the Dharma conference? Or are you the leader?
Suddenly, several more monks stood out, and together with the two elders in front, they said to the old monk with long white eyebrows and purple ribbon robes who was sitting in front of him: "Please punish Mo Yuan for his rude words." ”
The leader touched his white eyebrows and said helplessly: "Master Nephew Mo has informed the old Taoist, and the old Taoist thought it was a good idea and agreed."
"Master, the sect's rules cannot be changed!"
"Master, you cannot listen to Mo Yuan's words on this matter!"
…………
Several monks expressed their opinions one after another.
"Hey." Someone sneered, and several monks in the middle of the hall took a look. It was a young monk sitting opposite Mo Yuan. He was tall and tall. Even when he was sitting on a futon, his back was It stood straight, as if it were a sword that would be unsheathed at any moment.
Several monks secretly groaned inwardly, because this guy was famous for being outspoken, merciless, and a typical example of saying anything. Just like his fighting style, he was never subtle, straightforward, and extremely sharp.
The young monk raised his handsome eyebrows, stood up and said, "Are these elders turning a blind eye to all the ugly behaviors shown by the children in the family when they were tested in their character in the Bamboo House? Are you doing it for the sake of the sect? Or are you just doing it for the sake of the sect? Family plan? ”
Sure enough, this fool just flipped the things under the table to the table to talk about it. Several monks looked at each other and were about to argue a few words. The young monk took a step forward and asked loudly: "I just want to ask, do those disciples' xinxing meet the requirements? Is this method of Junior Brother Mo better than before? Is it necessary for Junior Brother Mo to inform you? Which commandment of the sect stipulates that it must be done? Did I inform you? I, the leader of Zhanglu Hall, really don’t know!”
"Yongxiang! You!" The thin middle-aged monk pointed at the young monk, his fingers trembling slightly, not knowing what he wanted to say.
Yong Xiang shook his head and said: "Third uncle, you'd better go back. There's no point in talking about this matter."
The middle-aged and thin monk was shaking with anger. He was only held back by several monks behind him to prevent him from going into a rage. The monks knew that the matter was hopeless, and the leader's attitude was also very clear. He had no choice but to give up. Anyway, it won't happen next time. You won’t be fooled by little tricks and you will be prepared. Ten years is just a short period of time for monks at their level.
Several monks said goodbye to the head master and left the hall chatting together. They deliberately did not suppress their voices and faintly conveyed some words into the hall, such as "Is Yongxiang a descendant of the family?!" "You Yong family? What's wrong with him?"
Yongxiang sat down again without being affected at all. At this time, except for the headmaster, there were only four monks left in the hall. Yongxiang himself, Mo Yuan, a beautiful woman wearing a black lady's uniform, and a A middle-aged ordinary monk wearing a seven-star robe.
After hearing those words, this beautiful woman was overjoyed. She bent down while sitting on the futon, pounded the ground beside her with her hands, and said with a smile: "Haha, are you from the Yong family? ? ! Junior Brother Yong, why don’t you follow my surname Yu? "This woman is Yu Jiaolong Yu Linglong."
Yong Xiang glanced at Yu Linglong: "Those family elders are so stubborn and short-sighted that they have no plans. They will compete for any small profits. It seems that if enough elixirs, elixirs, and spiritual stones are enough, they can cultivate top-grade gold. Dan is average, he doesn’t have any experience with the family members, and he even dotes on and protects them.”
After a pause, he continued: "Our cultivating family does not rely on large numbers of people. We cannot produce a high-grade golden elixir master. No matter how many disciples you have, they are in the soul stage, the qi-entraining stage, or even the low-grade golden elixir. How about it? We must know that the merit of a gentleman can only last five generations. Even if we live long enough, it is only a matter of a few more lives. The inheritance of the family lies in cultivating outstanding family children, rather than competing for resources to become famous. Eyes, and then pass on this abnormal emotion to the children of the family."
Yu Linglong nodded and said: "They say that Junior Brother Yong, you are, haha, a barbarian." She couldn't help it, she beat the ground again and laughed wildly, and stopped after a while, "But who knew you could speak so insightfully, Our Yu family, the oldest among the three, is only over 1,800 years old. Compared to the nearly 20,000 years of inheritance of the sect, it is really a drop in the bucket of those big families that have been here for more than 10,000 years. After several generations without a top-grade Golden elixir master, it slowly declined and disappeared into the history of the sect."
Yongxiang sighed: "The Penglai sect has a strong family, but the peaks and veins passed down by master and apprentice last longer. It's a pity that the family elders can't see it."
Yu Linglong also sighed: "If you hadn't stood up just now, I would have been angry at them."
"Just get angry. Those guys will definitely leave without saying a word when they see you, a female tyrannosaurus, getting angry." Yong Xiang said calmly.
Yu Linglong stood up immediately, furious: "Yongxiang, please tell me clearly, who is the female tyrannosaurus?!"
"You dare to say that you are not? Don't think that wearing ladies' clothes means you are a lady!"
"Sure enough, calling you a barbarian is flattering you! You are just a fool!"

Mo Yuan closed his eyes and concentrated on practicing. The ordinary monk in the seven-star robe looked at the two helplessly. If there was any sign of a fight, he would stop it immediately. He looked at the leader again and found that the leader also had his eyes closed and was not sleeping. Let’s continue practicing.
The two were relatively restrained this time and did not fight. When the two were tired of arguing, the leader's faint voice came: "Linglong, you will be the one to host the ceremony in ten years."
Yu Linglong scratched her hair and said distressedly: "I have to think of a good way, so I can't lose to Junior Brother Mo."
The headmaster paused for a moment and then spoke to Yongxiang: "Yongxiang, any disciple who acts as a cover-up in this Dharma assembly will be severely punished."
Yongxiang cupped his fists and saluted: "I will obey the master's decree."
In the early morning of the second day, Shi Xuan finished practicing early and took the cloud boat to Tianshu Peak, the head of the peaks. This is the residence of the leader, the Tianya Haijiao Tower where the exercises are stored, and the palace where great ceremonies are held. All on this mountain peak.
The top of Tianshu Peak is very big. Without telling anyone, no one would be able to tell that this is the peak. Some magic must have been used to transform the terrain here, forming a flat land with a radius of dozens of miles, and then Several majestic halls and courtyards were built on it.
Shi Xuan and others were introduced to the quaint main hall located in the middle, with "Jietian Hall" written in seal script on it. The hall was very spacious, and with the elders, inner disciples, and outer disciples who had entered the ceremony before, there were hundreds of people standing sparsely.
At the front of the hall, there stands a tall jade statue, which is an elegant Taoist with a childlike face and a seven-star crown on his head. He is wearing a Tai Chi Taoist robe. Under it stands a white eyebrow with long white eyebrows that hangs down to his mouth, wearing a purple ribbon and Bagua Taoist robe. old Taoist.
On both sides of him stood a dozen monks with different demeanor, among them was the cold-faced Lei Lord Mo Yuan that Shi Xuan had seen before.
An ordinary middle-aged monk wearing a seven-star robe stood up and shouted loudly: "All new disciples of the outer sect, please kneel down and bow to the founder of the sect, Song Patriarch."
