LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 041
Night falls.
When the last wave of testing is complete, the test is finally finished.
Hundreds of thousands of people, and finally only 500 people made it to the next round, which shows the cruelty of the situation.
Among them, except for two Earth Spirit Roots and one Heavenly Spirit Root, the rest were all Human Spirit Roots.
….
“The first test is complete.”
“Those who pass the test, a deacon will take you to stay for a night in a while, and the rest will leave on their own.”
An inner gate elder, standing on a high platform, said to those who had not passed the test on the square.
They had been waiting for a miracle, but at the last moment, they still didn’t.
This world is so cruel that it will not show you mercy.
Soon, the people in the square dispersed one after another.
Su Han opened his eyes, stood up, stretched his waist, and yawned.
It’s finally off work.
At this time, Su Han stood on the high platform, his eyes looked towards the square below, looking at those mortal children who had lost their souls, and left one by one with their heads bowed, and there was still some emotion in his heart.
Xiu Immortal, it’s so cruel, tens of thousands of people compete for a place.
Wrong… From the moment they were born, the Talent Spirit Root had already decided their future path, and their efforts for more than ten or twenty years were only in vain, and this moment was just for them to realize reality.
At this time, Su Han noticed that in the square, a thin young man was still stunned in place.
The wide cloth looked very discordant on his body, and when the wind blew, you could see the thin figure under the cloth, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.
……
The cloth-clothed boy stood in place, raised his head, looked at the mountain of the Phantom Cloud Sect, stunned, and his pupils dilated.
He turned and looked at the crowd, not knowing where he was going next.
None of the sects wanted him, he went all the way from the north, all the way to the north, eating leaves when hungry, drinking water when thirsty, as long as he saw the sect on the road, he would try, but without exception, all turned him away.
In the end, walking to this Phantom Cloud Sect was already his last stop.
He could no longer continue to the south, nor did he have the strength to continue walking…
And now, he doesn’t know where he should go….
He was stunned for a long time, when the people in the square were all gone, he still stood in place, and finally he withdrew his gaze, and the last glimmer of light in his eyes also disappeared.
Immediately, he turned around and walked towards the outside of the mountain step by step.
“Elder Su, I’ll leave first?”
A deacon in charge of the testing platform where Su Han was located saw that Su Han was still in place, so he spoke.
“Hmm.”
Su Han looked at the young man and sighed
“Elder Su, you used to be in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, so you may not know much about the situation of the Acceptance Ceremony.”
“I, ah, from the day I became a deacon, have witnessed more than a dozen disciple ceremonies, large and small.”
“The day after the end of each disciple hall, we would go to the bottom of the cliffs of the nearby mountains and search.”
The middle-aged deacon, looking for Su Han’s gaze, also saw the thin young man who was like a walking dead walking towards the outside of the mountain, and said with emotion.
“Search? What to look for? ”
Su Han asked.
“Corpse.”
Hearing this, Su Han was also stunned.
The deacon smiled bitterly, and said faintly: “Last time in the Great Hall of Discipleship, I searched for thousands of corpses under the cliffs outside our mountain range. ”
“When I went, the bodies were still hot.”
“Many of these mortals are desperate, successful in one step to heaven, unsuccessful is one step to hell.”
“Many of them are in a bad mood and jump out of this mountain range to find a cliff.”
Hearing this, Su Han also sighed, it was too realistic, after all, ninety-nine percent of the resources of this world are in the hands of immortal cultivators, and the weak are not even qualified to live.
However, those who can’t stand the blow and jump off the cliff can’t accept their mediocrity, or can’t face the cruel reality, and jump off the cliff directly.
“After you collected the body, then what? Lost it? ”
Su Han asked a question that he was somewhat concerned about.
“If you don’t lose it, we will send someone to send these disciples back to their hometowns, and then give them a pension to their families.”
Hearing this deacon’s words, a look of surprise flashed in Su Han’s eyes, and he unconsciously had a good impression of the Phantom Cloud Sect in his heart.
“This rule is only available to us in the Phantom Cloud Sect.”
“The other six cases will not even collect the corpses, let alone send them back to their hometowns.”
“This also led to the fact that we had the largest number of apprentices, because those people knew that they could not stand jumping off the cliff, they would also return to their roots, and they would also bring a part of the pension to their families.”
“There are even some poor mortal houses, after they can’t support it, the men in the family will come to participate in the acceptance ceremony, and then jump off the cliff outside the mountain of the Phantom Cloud Sect.”
“The purpose is to find a way for the wife and children in the family to survive.”
Hearing this, Su Han asked, “Wouldn’t that cause more and more people to deliberately cheat the Illusory Cloud Sect’s pension?” ”
“Yes, don’t see that so many people came to participate in the acceptance ceremony, in fact, at least one-fifth of the people came for the pension.”
“I, ah, will be busy for at least a month or two.”
The deacon smiled bitterly.
“Then how much do you pay pensions?”
Hearing this, the deacon said: “Not fixed, it will not be less or more, according to the population of the deceased family, at least give them the amount of food and clothing for the rest of their lives.” ”
“Not much, many poor mortal families, three or four lower grade spirit stones, it is enough for them to use the rest of their lives, there is no problem with food, clothing and warmth.”
Saying that, the deacon paused and lowered his voice: “Elder Su, maybe you don’t know, in fact, there are many mortal villages in the Great Qian Empire, and the status of the Phantom Cloud Sect in their minds is far more than any sect, including the royal family!” ”
…..
Hearing this last sentence, Su Han’s eyebrows furrowed, and he thought of something.
The deacon continued: “At first, there were many elders in the inner gate who did not understand this practice of the head of the gate, and the absolute head was too kind, after all, it was fine to appease a few dozens, but after appeasing hundreds of families, the workload was very large. ”
“Later, the head said a word, which I still remember.”
“He said…”
Speaking of this, the deacon showed a look of reminiscence: “Mortal lives are suffering, and the pillars of the family use their lives to believe in our Phantom Cloud Sect, what reason do we have to refuse?” Accumulate more virtue, O man. ”
Hearing these words, Su Han was stunned, and the appearance of a middle-aged Daoist appeared in his mind.
At this moment, his overall impression of Yun Feng seemed to have been raised by a few points.
It turned out that he was such a person.
To be honest, at this moment, Su Han’s liking for Yunfeng was much greater, and he might be able to become friends in the future.
“The good words were all said by the old man in charge, and after speaking, he continued to idle the wild crane.”
“We are suffering.”
Saying that, the deacon smiled bitterly, but Su Han could see that he actually admired Yunfeng very much in his heart.
…..
“Okay, Elder Su, don’t say anything.”
“I have to rush back to gather people, arrange tasks, and work early tomorrow morning.”
With that, the deacon prepared to leave.
“What’s your name?” Su Han asked the deacon.
“Hao Yun.”
After that, he left in a hurry.
Su Han remembered the name, he can help in the future, and he can also help, this person is not bad.
……
When Su Han came back to his senses.
So thin boy, he has reached the end of the mountain range, and soon it will be dark into the night.
Looking at the thin back, Su Han knew that it was likely that he would also jump off the edge of the cliff…
At this time, Su Han ghostly used the “Heavenly Eye” and looked at the thin young man.
Soon, the information text appeared in Su Han’s mind…
