Chapter 231 Preliminary Screening! One year old
Yucheng, the Demon-Suppressing Division.
Zhang Lingshan and Kong Dagui didn’t stop and went to see Kuragazhen as soon as possible.
“I’m back.”
The warehouse manager was really at his desk approving documents. He raised his head and glanced at the two of them. His eyes suddenly froze and fell on Kong Dagui.
But he soon cast his eyes on Zhang Lingshan again and said, "Has your father been rescued?"
"He has been rescued. Thank you for your concern."
Zhang Lingshan arched Handed over.
Kura Nagazhen nodded and said: "It's good to rescue him, so that you can prepare for the selection of Demon Suppressor with peace of mind."
"Yes. But I don't know when the preliminary screening will start. I just I’m afraid I won’t have enough time, because I will be seventeen in a month.”
Zhang Lingshan asked.
Kura Nagazhen frowned: "I will be seventeen in one month. In that case, without further ado, I will take you there myself."
"Thank you, sir."
"Let's go."
Cang Changzhen acted vigorously and let Kong Dagui rest by himself, then took Zhang Lingshan into the room in the backyard.
He put his handprint on the wall, and a door to the underground opened.
Follow the passage all the way down.
Going deeper, it suddenly became clear that it was an underground circular palace, like an upside-down bowl.
The bowl is supported by nine huge stone pillars.
Zhang Lingshan noticed that the nine stone pillars were engraved with different runes. Unfortunately, the patterns were complicated and he did not recognize them at all.
If Taoist Priest Tianhe were here, he would know a little bit about it.
But even though Zhang Lingshan didn't know much about the formations and runes, he knew that he was already in a formation at this moment.
It’s just that this formation has not been activated. Even if it is activated, it is not a killing formation, so there is no need to worry about it.
"Come to me, grab my shoulders, and don't let go."
Kura Nagazhen stood in front of a stone pillar and instructed.
Zhang Lingshan followed immediately and grabbed Kurana Nagama's shoulder with his right hand. He felt that this person's shoulders were hard, which showed that his physical constitution was very strong and he was worthy of being the strongest man in Yuzhou.
"The Bafang Divine Pillar, help me find the trace. Quick!"
I saw Kurana Nagama spreading his right hand and sealing it on the stone pillar. At the same time, he kneaded with his left hand and shouted sharply. .
Wow!
The world suddenly changed, and the misty atmosphere immediately drowned Zhang Lingshan and Kuragazhen.
Zhang Lingshan's heart moved: 'Is this the world of mist? ’
It turns out that the stone pillar is the passage into the mist world.
But it is just a passage into the fog world. Is it necessary to make it so mysterious?
You must know that Ye Zi can easily find the passage to the mist world, and even smash a bright jade bead to forcefully enter the mist world.
Even if you don't have these means, you can still have a chance to enter the Mist Realm by finding a mountain temple stronghold built by a hidden sect.
It can be seen that there are many ways to enter the fog world.
There is no need to be as mysterious as the Demon Suppressor.
So what’s the point?
That’s right.
The moment Zhang Lingshan had doubts, he figured it out.
Because the purpose of this trip is not to enter the Mist Realm, but to participate in the preliminary selection of the Demon Suppressor.
Relate to the words Kuranazhen read when he entered.
The answer is ready to come out.
‘It seems that the stone pillar formation has a tracking effect and can take us directly to the destination of the preliminary screening. ’
Zhang Lingshan thought to himself.
"Have you ever been to the Mist Realm?" Kurama asked suddenly.
Because most people will be nervous when they first enter the fog world, especially if they are overwhelmed by the foggy and sticky atmosphere, it will make people panic.
But Zhang Lingshan didn't look nervous at all. On the contrary, he was extremely calm.
If you have not been to the Mist Realm, how can you explain it?
Zhang Lingshan naturally knew this truth, so he said honestly: "When I and Supervisor Kong were tracing the traces of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, they accidentally entered the mountain temple. Who knew that it was the stronghold of the hidden sect, so I entered in confusion. The world of mist.”
"That's it."
Kura Nagazhen nodded and said: "Since you have entered the mist world and can still get out, then I don't need to waste any more words. I just want to ask you a question, what do you think about this? What's the difference between entering the fog world this time and before?"
Zhang Lingshan pretended to be thoughtful, and then said: "When I entered the fog world before, I suddenly changed the world. We are actually still in the mist, following the flow of the mist. It seems that this mist flow is taking us somewhere? "
"Clever!"
Kurama praised it and laughed. Said: "That's right. Then tell me where we are going?"
"The place for the preliminary selection of the Demon Suppressor?"
Zhang Lingshan guessed.
I thought in my heart, this warehouse manager really treats this person like a three-year-old child, asking such an obvious question.
Ask the four-year-old if you can.
“Not bad!”
Kurama nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "We will be there soon. Let me remind you that if you lie about your age, you will die here. Even if I want to protect you, I can't. Now if you are willing to tell the truth, you can still If there is room for regret, I will take you back immediately."
"My subordinates have always told the truth."
Zhang Lingshan said without any panic.
Kuranazama said: "It's good to tell the truth, but I'm afraid that you have recorded your birth time incorrectly, or that your parents have recorded incorrectly. If it is eventually found that your age does not match, you will also Die."
"This..."
Zhang Lingshan suddenly felt bad.
God knows if my parents will remember the difference. Don’t say that I traveled halfway, and my memory may not be fully absorbed.
Even if I am the original person, what if my brain is not clear and I forget the date?
If something unexpected happened this time, who should I talk to for explanation?
His grandma’s.
Neither Cang Changzhen nor Kong Dagui made it clear earlier. If you had made it clear earlier, I might not come.
"But if you didn't hide it deliberately, I will protect you."
Kura Nagazhen finally said something reassuring, but added: "I just want to protect you if you bleed heavily. , you have to pay me back when the time comes.”
“…”
Zhang Lingshan was speechless.
It turned out to be waiting for him here.
This is a warning to myself in advance. If I fail the initial screening, I will have to sell myself to work for the warehouse manager.
After all, my strength is on display here.
Failing to pass the preliminary screening only means that the age does not match, and it has nothing to do with strength.
Even if he is forty years old now, such strength is worth cultivating. Kurama is really not a fool, so he can naturally see his own value.
All in all, regardless of whether he passed the preliminary screening or not, the warehouse manager really would have paid off anyway, otherwise he wouldn't have been so enthusiastic to send it to him personally.
"My subordinate understands! Thank you, Boss Cang."
Now that Zhang Lingshan knew what the other party was thinking, he also called Kong Dagui the same name, and no longer called him Lord Zhenfushi.
Cang Changzhen showed a smile, very satisfied with the title of Cang Boss, and said with a smile: "Xiaoshan, relax, this preliminary screening test is very simple. Look, we are here at that house!"
Zhang Lingshan took a closer look. Sure enough, I saw a house.
But it was not the big hall he imagined, but a small thatched house, surrounded by fences, and some unknown flowers and plants were planted in the yard.
In the center is a pavilion.
An old man sitting in the pavilion closed his eyes and fell asleep. He heard the footsteps of Cang Changzhen and Zhang Lingshan, and then he opened his eyes and said: "It's you, Lao Cang, why are you here again? Get ready." Have you made an appointment to leave?"
As he said that, he glanced at Zhang Lingshan and said in surprise: "Why is there a new person? Isn't it your nephew Cang You'er? Is there another good talent?"< br>
"Not bad, haha."
Kang Chang laughed really hard: "I didn't expect it, Lao Wang, but we in Yuzhou will have two people participating in the selection of the Demon Suppressor this time! God bless Yuzhou!"
"Haha, what two people? This one hasn't passed the preliminary screening yet." The old man poured cold water on them unceremoniously.
Kang Changzhen hummed: "Then why don't you test it quickly?"
"Test it, test it."
As the old man spoke, he took out a packet of medicinal powder from his arms, sprinkled it into an empty tea cup, then poured a cup of tea into it, handed it to Zhang Lingshan and said: "Little brother, please drink tea."
" Thank you."
Zhang Lingshan picked up the tea and drank it in one gulp.
Although he didn't know what the medicinal powder was for, he was not afraid at all. Even if it was extremely poisonous, he could withstand it with more than 50 million energy points.
"How does it taste?" the old man asked with a smile.
Zhang Lingshan said truthfully: "It's a bit sour and doesn't taste good."
"Haha!"
The old man laughed: "You can tell the truth. Okay, the effect of the medicine has begun to take effect. I have a stone here, just hold it with both hands."
As he spoke, he turned his right hand and put a stone three times the size of a goose egg on the table, signaling Zhang Lingshan to go. hug.
Zhang Lingshan stretched out his hand as he was told, and as soon as he hugged the stone, he felt something suddenly started to flow in his body and poured into the stone.
‘Is that the medicinal power of the powder? ’
Zhang Lingshan’s heart moved and he understood.
This medicinal powder is not poison. Its function is very simple. It is to walk around your body and analyze your age through the internal system detection.
Now, the detected information is fed back to the stone.
Soon.
Zhang Lingshan felt that all the medicine in his body had drained away.
Wow.
The stone in his hand suddenly glowed, and a big character immediately floated on the top of the stone: "One."
"Huh!?"
The old man was startled, and from Zhang Lingshan grabbed the stone in his hand and started beating it.
Kuranasa Shinya looked surprised: "What's going on? One year old. For such an old person, you say he is one year old? Isn't this test stone broken?"
"Uh..."
< br>Zhang Lingshan's face showed just the right amount of doubt and astonishment.
But my heart was shocked.
Because judging from the time he traveled through, it was indeed only more than a year.
This detection stone is so incredible that it can detect the time of one's own soul?
Pa bang bang.
The old man continued to beat and muttered: "I have long said that this test stone is unreliable. I have only used it a few times and it is so broken..."
< br>Just saying.
The words floating on the stone flickered and turned into: "Sixteen."
"Hey, okay, I really need a spanking, just slap a few times and it will be fine."
The old man put the stone away with satisfaction and said: "Not bad, not bad. I have been so strong at the age of sixteen, but it is better than yours." My grandnephew Cang Youer is much stronger. What’s the young man’s name?”
“Junior Zhang Lingshan, you are so young?” The old man was stunned at first. , then shook his head: "No, I almost forgot that you are from Yuzhou and have nothing to do with the Zhang family in Zhongzhou."
After that.
He pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "I suggest you change your name."
"Change your name?"
Zhang Lingshan was stunned: "Why?"
The old man said: " The Zhang family in Zhongzhou is full of talents. If you go to Zhongzhou to participate in the selection of the Demon Suppressor, you will definitely meet the children of the Zhang family. They are very concerned about their own generation. If you use the word "ling", you will violate other people's taboos. You are two or even three generations older than the younger generation, so I suggest you drop the word "ling" and change your name to Zhang Shan to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Haha!"
Zhang Lingshan laughed: "My name was Zhang Lingshan when I was born. I don't change my name when I work, or my surname when I sit down. Breaking a taboo? I think they broke my taboo!"
Before I traveled through time, my name was Zhang Lingshan. After time travel, he is still Zhang Lingshan, and God didn't let him change his name. Why do you bullshit the Zhang family in Zhongzhou and let him change his name?
“Haha!”
The old man also laughed: “That’s right! That’s exactly what it should be. Now that you have participated in the selection of Demon Suppressor, you can’t be timid. If you really change your name, it will be the same. We lost at the beginning. Not bad, Lao Cang, we have a good seedling in Yuzhou this time. It seems that we both have a chance to return to Zhongzhou."
Cang Changzhen said: "After so many years, Something good should happen. However, are you sure you won’t take the test again? If the age test turns out to be wrong when we get to Zhongzhou, not only will we be in vain, but we will even be punished." br>
The old man nodded heavily: "You're right. To be on the safe side, you should take a test. Come on Zhang Lingshan, drink another pack of medicinal powder. Because you are big, I guess the previous powder is not enough, so I will give you an extra pack. ”
“Okay. ”
Zhang Lingshan was helpless, but also a little curious, whether the detection stone and powder could really detect his age in time traveled.
For this.
This time he closed his eyes and forced his head to stop thinking.
wrong.
It is impossible not to think about it.
Must think of something.
Zhang Lingshan's heart moved, and he began to recite the "Jade Emperor's Breath Sutra", and then hugged the stone with both hands.
“Sixteen!”
The old man shouted: "It's accurate this time. Sure enough, I didn't take enough powder. Zhang Lingshan, I remember that after I went to Zhongzhou, I also took two packets."
"Okay."
Zhang Lingshan Responded loudly.
Although I don’t know if it’s because I didn’t take enough medicinal powder, but when I come to Zhongzhou for review, to be on the safe side, I have to recite the Jade Emperor’s Breath Sutra.
“Come on, Zhang Lingshan, your physique looks good to others, let me touch it for you, Lao Wang, and give you some pointers. By the way, my name is Wang Yan, you can just call me Lao Wang. .”
As the old man said this, he started to strike at Zhang Lingshan's body very quickly. His palm skills were like flying, and he slapped hundreds of times on Zhang Lingshan's body.
Zhang Lingshan was shocked.
This old man is so fast.
I was caught off guard and had no time to stop him.
“Not bad, not bad. Skin, muscles, fascia, and bones are all first-class and contain great energy.”
The more Wang Yan looked at Zhang Lingshan, the more delighted he became. He pulled Cang Changzhen and couldn't help but sigh: "Your nephew Cang You'er's spiritual talent is extraordinary, and this Lingshan's physical talent is extraordinary. If the two of them work together, at least one of them can pass." Selection. Okay, okay!"
He couldn't help but be excited.
Because he made a mistake back then, he was sent here for testing.
It is almost impossible to go back.
But if Zhang Lingshan or Cang Youer pass the selection, Wang Yanbian will also be honored. He can take advantage of his luck, receive amnesty, and return to Yuzhou.
