Chapter 34: Opening Ceremony

Two days later, there was a sea of ​​people outside the Immortal Tomb.

The great competition among the immortals to determine the future of Kyushu finally officially kicked off. The monks from the Kyushu continent heard the news and gathered in Fengdu.

People directly related to the Immortals Competition had stationed in the Immortal City in batches a few days ago, and now most of the people who came were enthusiastic onlookers.

In addition to monks, there are now more mortals in Fengdu. After all, the monks have different levels of cultivation. Those Jindan Nascent Souls can eat and sleep in the open air without any foreign objects, but monks with low levels of cultivation may have to deal with basic necessities, food, housing and transportation.

To land on mortals.

Outside the Tomb of the Immortals, most of the permanent residents of Fengdu City are now mortals. They have traveled thousands of miles to provide various services to the monks and enjoy the feedback from the monks. When the Immortal Competition is approaching, people from all over Kyushu are flowing.

The population is increasing, and there are already tens of thousands of mortals alone.

Millions. On the day before the opening of the competition, the place closest to the tombs of the immortals was crowded with people. Monks and mortals were mixed together. There were people everywhere on the ground and in the air. No matter whether you were a real Jin Dan or a mortal chef, in

In such a sea of ​​people, you can't tell much difference.

So naturally there will be monks complaining about the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's policy of treating everyone equally.

In addition to those who are directly related and stationed in advance, the Immortal Competition is open to everyone in the Nine Provinces Continent, regardless of monks or mortals, righteous or evil, and even visitors from outside the Nine Provinces Continent are also welcome. As long as you follow the Immortals

Once you enter Qunxian City through the Tomb Gate, you can freely watch all the games there, and even freely access the food and supplies. Therefore, there are even many people fleeing famine who gathered in Fengdu City at this time, which adds a lot of chaos to Fengdu.

A monk who was blocked by the crowd several miles away from the gate couldn't help complaining: "Damn it, what on earth are the organizing committee thinking? It's enough to treat monks equally, how come even mortals are allowed in? This group of

What does the Immortal Competition have to do with them? Are we, the cultivators of immortality, going to be asked to perform for mortals? How unworthy is it?"

As he spoke, he endured the suffocating strong smell around him - the smell of sweat and breath of mortals, and the greasy smell of food emitted by some people eating while walking on the street. The combination made him, a Xudan monk, feel...

Some can't stand it.

Beside him, his junior brother also complained: "I really don't understand what that guy named Wang Lu is thinking... I heard that he has caused everyone a lot of suffering during this period."

Ever since Wang Lu took over as the chief planner, the endless whimsical ideas that have emerged have really made the monks in Kyushu complain endlessly, especially the two thousand elite team who were not included in the list of the competition. In order to be able to do so in a short time

To obtain strength comparable to that of an earthly immortal, Wang Lu really used all the means at his disposal. The controversial cross-dressing of the opposite sex was only one of them. His more creative ideas attracted countless people... In addition to achieving remarkable results, he

I have also been under great pressure from public opinion.

Even those who are not qualified to participate in the training have learned that there is a real Jin Dan in Jiuzhou Continent who does things that do not follow common sense and is angry and resentful.

"Damn it, when this competition among immortals is over, I must ask him to settle the accounts."

"At least ten years of his cultivation will be crippled."

"Ten years is too cheap. A lawless person like him has to sit quietly in the death chamber for a hundred years."

The two of them were discussing angrily, and suddenly there was a strong and strong hand on each shoulder.

In an instant, the Jade Mansion Pill Qi of the Xudan monk condensed, and his body, which had been tempered for thousands of times, trembled endlessly. The two wanted to turn around, but found that their heads had long been out of control.

Then, there was a buzzing sound in my ears.

"You two are not worthy of licking Wang Lu's shoes, so stop talking nonsense here."

"Zun, Zunjia, what exactly is..."

"Don't ask who I am, you two don't deserve to know. I'm just telling you that you are lucky to have met me this time. Although Wang Lu is controversial, there are many people who have benefited from him. If it were anyone else, I would kill you.

Two small virtual pills are just a matter of moving your fingers. The rules of Fengdu City cannot protect your lives."

As soon as the words fell, the two Xudan felt a light on their shoulders. The sudden change made their center of gravity unstable, and their legs became even more weak. They couldn't lift up all the magic power in their bodies, so they sat down on the ground with a plop. However, in the sea of ​​​​people

Suddenly they fell down, and their fate was obvious. Soon there were a large number of footprints on their bodies.

The two of them were trampled to a miserable state. Although there was no pain, the monk's dignity was naturally gone. If he wanted to look up and see the figure and face of the man clearly, he could only catch a majestic figure from the shadows of countless pairs of shoe soles.

A burly back.

"...Why do I think that person is wearing a skirt?"

"Maybe you were dazzled by being stepped on by a certain heroine in a skirt. I'm really about to be stepped on to death. Come on and give me a hand. What bastard stepped on my face on purpose?"

The little bastard who deliberately stepped on people's faces walked smoothly through the crowds of people with a wicked smile on his face, while holding a brocade silk bag tightly in his hand.

The young man's name is Shu Si, he is fourteen years old and he is a refugee in Fengdu City. He followed a group of traveling merchants to Fengdu a few years ago. Later, the traveling merchants left, but he stayed, visiting various shops on the outskirts of the city every now and then.

Do some part-time work. Although Shu Si is not tall, he has slender limbs and especially a pair of skillful hands.

He is the most flexible. Some merchants took pity on him because his parents died when he was young, so they gave him some errands from time to time. But soon people discovered that although this kid was skillful, he was also good at stealing sheep and poaching dogs. There would always be some inexplicable shortage of things in the place where he worked.

It may not be very precious, but it always brings bad luck to the store.

This Shu Si was so nimble that he had been living in Fengdu for more than half a year without leaving any evidence, but no shopkeepers were willing to give him alms anymore. After losing his livelihood, Shu Si became a gangster, doing serious things.

He started a pickpocketing business. He hired a gangster on the outskirts of the city and relied on his cleverness to make a good living.

He has always known who can move and who cannot move. Especially after seeing the tragic situation of several companions who went blind to provoke the cultivators, and had their limbs broken on the spot, and even half of their three souls and seven souls were taken away. He

It is even more prudent to do things, and it is better to gain less and be spit on by the gangster, than to be turned into a magic weapon, and life is worse than death.

However, in the past two days, the situation in Fengdu changed. A large number of people came in. The orderly situation in the past was no longer there. When Shu Si saw an opportunity, he boldly took action and achieved some gains.

Especially on this day, the gates of the Immortal Tombs were fully opened, and the city was crowded with people. Many monitoring circles were overwhelmed and failed. In order to maintain the basic order, a banning circle was launched in the city to restrict the monks from using their cultivation at will. So these little gangsters

There was even no control, and there was no law in the city.

Like the two Xudan monks just now, in terms of strength, they can crush a hundred Shu Si with just a finger, but now they can only be crowded in the crowd, and their waists are stolen by a little ant-like thief.

Storage mustard bag.

"Rat Four, how was the harvest?"

At this time, Shu Si was hiding in a corner weighing a bag of mustard seeds. He suddenly heard the voice of his companion and turned his head. It was his friend. The young man was so happy that he opened a corner of his gown and saw more than a dozen brocades delicately tied inside.

bag.

The companion took a breath of cold air: "You are so brave. These are all monks' things. Aren't you afraid that they will follow your trail and find you and seduce your soul?"

Shu Si chuckled: "Who wants to target the kind of monks who can seduce people's souls? I specialize in picking fools to target. Don't look at those monks who come and go as if they are great. In fact, there are a lot of fools, and many of them are cultivators.

Xiu is stupid and has no sense of precaution at all. Just take advantage of them and you'll be fine."

The companion was filled with envy: "I'm not as courageous as you... But you can't open this monk's thing, so what's the use of it?"

"If I can't open it, there's always someone who can. Have you forgotten that dead man in the west of the city? He just collects the monk's things, and if the things are given to him, it has nothing to do with you, and no one will look for you."

"But Dead Face came in."

Shu Si was immediately dumbfounded: "Ah? Did he enter that big stone gate?"

The so-called Big Stone Gate naturally refers to the gate of the Immortal Tombs. This gate is usually only open to monks approved by the Administrative Committee. As for ordinary people in Fengdu, although they can see the majestic gate towering into the clouds every night, they have never

I didn't have a chance to go in and see the real thing.

"Many people have been rushing to the big stone gate in the past few days. In addition to the dead man's face, there are also the old man in green and the peach blossom lady."

Shu Si was even more dumbfounded: "Well, why are all the people who are willing to harvest leaving?" But the young man immediately rolled his eyes and made a decision, "By the way, I'll go too."

"Are you going too?" The companion was stunned, "Why are you going? The boss said that no one is allowed to go in, so be careful not to cause trouble and implicate everyone."

Shu Si spat: "That useless coward, listening to his farts still bothers everyone. When I touched the spirit stone and exchanged the face of a dead man for money, why wasn't he afraid of being bothered? I was about to go,

I heard that the big stone gate is full of immortals. If any immortal likes me, even if he doesn't accept me as his disciple, he can just give me two elixirs and I won't have to do anything."

"You think so well"

"Hmph, didn't you hear that an expert was preaching in a teahouse a few days ago and said that if a person has no dreams, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?"

"Salted fish can be eaten, but can humans eat it?"

Shu Si narrowed his eyes and said nothing. The taste of human flesh was actually not that novel.

After a while, he smiled and said: "Anyway, I'm going to make a decision. If you follow me, we can become immortals together. But even if you don't follow me, I will never forget your benefits when I become an immortal."

"

His companion knew that he had made up his mind, so he stopped trying to persuade him: "Oh, I wish you good luck."

Shu Si relied on his nimble skills to force his way through the crowded crowd, and finally reached the gate of the Tomb of the Immortals that evening.

This continuously expanded gate is now several miles wide, with its top towering into the clouds, like the mouth of a wild beast, constantly devouring thousands of creatures.

Shu Si swallowed his saliva in front of the door, then walked in among the crowd.

Behind the door, there is a new world.
