Chapter 10 – Entering the Sect
The red-faced old man frowned with dissatisfaction and said, “ Elder Li, is our Heng Yue Sect really going to sink so low? To make an exception for human life and death?
Elder Li opened his eyes and said in a cold voice, “Older Ma, the ancestral father told me to deal with this matter. If it's not handled properly, and this piece of trash is trying to kill himself a second time and his parents are spreading that we are forcing their child to commit suicide, isn't that more embarrassing? If you are willing to take responsibility for this matter, then I'll let you handle it. ”
The middle-aged man quickly tried to reconcile and said, “No need to argue. Why don't we let him become a disciple first, then after 8 or 10 years, when he fails to continue cultivating, we can send him back and there will be no problem. ”
The robed old man replied, "If another young man were to follow, what would we do?"
The middle-aged man chuckled softly and said, “This is an easy task. After this, we have learned our lesson. When we disappoint people in the future, we have to instill the idea of not killing ourselves and that will solve this problem. As for this Wang Lin, since the matter is already this big, let's take him as a disciple. One extra student is no problem. ”
Aside from elder Li, the other two elders looked seriously at the middle-aged man, not saying a word.
The middle-aged man smiled and thought, “Oh Wang Lin, Wang Lin. I have helped everything I can. I've paid you for a piece of metal that your fourth uncle gave me. I really want to know how humans can get their kind of material. ”
What the middle-aged man did not know was that fourth uncle Wang Lin had bought him from the blacksmith. He had seen many things, and as soon as he saw them, he knew it was not normal. This time, in order to let Tie Zhu join the Heng Yue Sect, he took him out. As for what the metal was used for, he had no idea.
A piece of metal changed Wang Lin's fate. When the news reached Wang Lin, he could not believe it. He was somehow accepted as a disciple for no apparent reason.
Two days later, he saw his parents leave from the Heng Yue sect. After seeing the excitement on his parents face, he decided to seriously cultivate here.
However, his way of thinking changed after his parents left. He was secretly summoned to the place where the disciples got their jobs and saw a shabby-looking young man. The young man's face was full of contempt. He looked at her and laughed. "So you are Wang Lin, the child who should become a disciple by suicide?"
Wang Lin silently looked at the young man challenging him. The young man sneered, “Son, from tomorrow morning you come to me for work. Your task is to take water, no less than ten barrels a day. If you are unable to finish the work, then there is no food for you, and if you continue for 7 days then I will tell the elders to drive you out of the sect. Here's your clothes. Remember, honor disciples can only wear gray. Once you become a true disciple, you will be given another color. '' After he finished speaking, he threw the clothes at Wang Lin and closed his eyes.
Wang Lin picked up his clothes and asked, "Where do I live?"
The young man did not even open his eyes and casually said, “Go north until you see a row of houses. Give your badge to the student there and they will give you space. ”
While walking in the Heng Yue Sect, Wang Lin saw many disciples wearing rushing gray uniforms with pale and cold faces. Some had tools in their hands and they all rushed over.
After walking straight for a while, he looked at the row of houses. There were more gray disciples here, but they barely spoke to each other.
After he gave his badge to the yellow-clothed disciple in charge, the young man impatiently pointed to a room.
Wang Lin was already used to the cold expressions of everyone here. He got to his room and opened the door. It was a large room with two wooden beds, a table, and two chairs. They were all very clean and new like the furniture in his house.
He chose a bed that looked empty. He put down his suitcase and lay down on his bed. Even though he entered the Heng Yue Sect, it was not what he expected. He thought that he would learn immortal techniques, but it seemed like his task was to take water.
Thinking of this, he sighed and touched the stone beads in front of his chest. This is the treasure he obtained. Wang Lin had read many books and he knew the danger of revealing them, as many people would be eyeing this treasure.
Moments later, night fell and a very tired young man in gray clothes opened the door and entered. He was stunned when he saw Wang Lin, then proceeded to faint on his bed without saying a word.
Wang Lin did not care. He knew he had to get up early. He touched his stomach, then pulled out some sweet potatoes. His parents brought them to eat when they went looking for him, and because he was accepted, his parents gave him all the food he had left.
Sweet potatoes are very sweet. As Wang Lin ate, the young man got up and looked at the yam. While his mouth was watering, he said in a low voice, "Can I get a piece?"
Wang Lin took out a few pieces and said, “I have a lot here. If you want, have it again. ”
The young man quickly picked up the food and took it, then went to the table and poured himself a glass of water. He exclaimed, “Damn it! I haven't eaten anything in two days. So what's your name?"
Wang Lin said his name. The young man suddenly laughed and said, "So you are Wang Lin, the trash who entered the Heng Yue Sect by trying to kill himself …" He suddenly realized what he had done and said, "Brother, my name is Zhang Hu. To be honest, there is no one in the sect who does not know about you, so please do not blame me for what I said before. In fact, I admire you for being able to enter the sect this way. ”
Wang Lin laughed bitterly. He did not try to explain and passed a few pieces of sweet potato.
Zhang Hu quickly accepted it and took a few bites, then said, "Wang Lin, you better leave it to yourself. You're new here. Who knows what evil things the yellow weasel will try to do. Damn, he doesn't even treat us like humans. ”
