Chapter 8 Royal List
"It takes at least two or three hours to get to Zhengyangmen from here. These people must be crazy!"
Chu Yan shook his head and looked towards the library. When he was about to step into the door of the library, his steps suddenly stopped and he turned around suddenly.
"No, they must have a way to get to Zhengyang Gate quickly!" Ever since Chu Yan met that immortal, his cultivation of Taoism was like a seed buried in his heart, especially after seeing the power of the shield spell.
Let this seed take root and germinate.
After a short time, Chu Xiang followed the others to the crossing of a large river in the city. Only then did Chu Xiang realize that everyone was here to take a boat to the city gate.
Chu Xiang also bought a boat ticket at the ferry and boarded the boat with everyone.
The boat is very large and can accommodate hundreds of people. It is the main means of transportation in the capital of Shu. This is Chu Xiang's first time on a boat. After stepping on the boat, he only felt a little bumpy.
Because Chu Yan had a drowning experience when she was a child, she did not dare to sit on the edge of the boat.
But not long after sitting down, Chu Yan suddenly felt dizzy and had a vague feeling of wanting to vomit.
Suddenly, Chu Yan covered her mouth and ran to the side of the boat. In the disgusted eyes of others, she opened her mouth and vomited wildly.
"What's going on?" When Chu Xiang was a little panicked, he found that there were a few people vomiting like him in other places on the boat.
“I really don’t know what these people are thinking, they want to get on the boat even though they are going to get seasick!”
"It's because of them that I don't even dare to wash clothes in the river."
"Bah, disgusting!"
"Seatsick?" The whispers from others reached Chu Yan's ears, making him dumbfounded.
Chu Xiang used to laugh at his classmate Chen Miao for getting seasick in a carriage, but he didn't expect that he would be hated by people today for being seasick.
An hour later, Chu Yan staggered off the boat and rested quietly on the ferry for nearly half an hour before feeling better.
When Chu Xiang arrived at Zhengyang Gate, the place had long been blocked. There were many officers and soldiers maintaining order, and Chu Xiang couldn't even see the shadow of Huang Bang.
"Huh?" Chu Xiang discovered that there was a passage in front of him where he could watch the Imperial List at close range. However, it was heavily guarded and he needed to pay silver coins to pass through.
"Brother Guan, how much silver does it cost to walk through the passage?" Chu Xiang came to the passage and asked the officers and soldiers.
The officer and soldier responded coldly: "One tael of silver."
"Is it so expensive? Can you be accommodating? By the way, I know..."
Hearing that Chu Xiang wanted to bargain, the officers and soldiers looked cold and immediately shouted to Chu Xiang: "Get out if you don't have money!"
Chu Yan's face looked a little ugly. He didn't have much silver on him, but he still continued to say: "Brother Guan, Xiaosheng..."
"Huh? I think your skin is itchy, don't you!" The officer and soldier looked fierce, raised their hands and slapped Chu Xiang!
Snapped!
A loud slapping sound startled everyone, and they all looked towards the passage.
Chu Xiang had already stretched out his hand to stop him, but found that the officers and soldiers were suddenly slapped to the ground by a bearded man, and they fainted immediately.
The big man shouted majestically: "Drag him away!"
Then the big man's face changed, his smile turned into a daisy, he looked respectfully at the dumbfounded Chu Xiang, and said: "I didn't expect that Brother Chu would actually have the leisure to come to my place. I'm sorry that I missed you from afar. Please forgive me!"
"Brother Wang, are you... going to be too harsh?" Chu Xiang looked at the officers and soldiers being dragged away with some worry.
"It's okay, they are useless if you don't attack them." Wang Tianming knew Chu Xiang's identity, so he would not miss the opportunity to be courteous at this moment. He immediately said: "By the way, Brother Chu wants to see the imperial list. Could it be that Brother Chu
Are you also interested in cultivating immortals?"
Chu Xiang was overjoyed and said bluntly: "To be honest with Brother Wang, Xiaosheng really wants to know a thing or two."
"It's easy. I'll take you to see the imperial list first." Wang Tianming said and led Chu Xiang into the passage under the envious eyes of everyone. Wang Tianming said as he walked: "Brother, I am very interested in cultivating immortals.
To learn more about it, after you finish reading the imperial list, I will go upstairs and let my brother explain it to you in detail!"
"Then there's Brother Lao Wang."
"It's my honor to be able to help Brother Chu!"
...
There were more than a dozen imperial lists posted on the entire city wall. The people were stopped by the officers and soldiers, and there was a certain distance between them and the imperial lists, so they could not see the contents of the imperial lists clearly.
For Chu Xiang, who originally aspired to be an official, he did not praise this kind of abuse of power for personal gain.
Chu Yan came to an imperial list and looked up attentively.
I saw on the imperial list: On June 28th, an immortal sect will come to the imperial city of Shu. At that time, disciples will be recruited from all over the country. Regardless of status, as long as they can pass the test, they can join the sect and practice.
Become a Supreme Monk!
"Anyone younger than twenty years old, regardless of gender, is eligible." Chu Xiang slowly read the imperial list and calculated in his mind that there were exactly eight days left before the sect came.
"Brother Chu, are you going to try your luck on the 28th?" Wang Tianming looked regretful and looked at Chu Xiang.
"Xiao Sheng does have this intention." Chu Xiang asked, "By the way, I wonder how much Brother Wang knows about the sect?"
"Brother Chu, please come over here. Let's sit down and talk slowly." With that, Wang Tianming took Chu Xiang up to the tower.
After sitting at the table, Wang Tianming ordered his men: "Bring me the captain's green bamboo wine!"
Hearing that he wanted to drink, Chu Xiang quickly dissuaded him: "Brother Wang, don't bother me, I don't drink alcohol!"
"Hey, a real man, you don't have to go shopping in the building, but you must drink wine!" Not allowing Chu Xiang to refuse, Wang Tianming took the wine and filled a bowl for Chu Xiang.
"This..." Looking at the full bowl of wine in front of him, Chu Yan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
"Come on, brother Chu, I'll give you a bowl. After you do it, I'll have a good chat about the sect with you!" Wang Tianming put the wine in front of Chu Xiang, giving Chu Xiang a feeling that he couldn't refuse.
Hearing Wang Tianming say that he only told himself after drinking, Chu Xiang could only helplessly pick up the wine bowl and said: "Please."
"Huh?" Chu Yan took a sip carefully, but found that the wine was different from the description in the book. It was not very spicy. It was hot in the stomach, very cool, very pure and smooth!
"Good wine!" Even if Chu Xiang didn't know how to drink, he knew it was good wine.
"That's right, this wine is brewed with spiritual bamboo as a container. Ordinary people can't drink it at all." Wang Tianming did not brag. This wine was a gift from one of his monk friends. He didn't have much left. If it weren't for
If he wants to make good friends with Chu Yan, he won't show it at all.
"The wine the immortal drank?" Chu Yan was shocked when he heard this and felt that his body's energy and blood flowed much smoother.
"Haha, it's just the most common spiritual wine." Wang Tianming laughed, very satisfied with Chu Yan's reaction.
After Chu Yan drank all the wine in the bowl, he asked: "By the way, Brother Wang, when was the last time an immortal came to accept disciples?"
"It has been twenty years since the last time. I was only in my teens at the time and took the test." Wang Tianming sighed, with some regret in his eyes.
