But it was said that Yin Xiuxuan galloped all the way, identifying the road by the moonlight, and arrived at Taiyang County early the next morning.
Yin Xiuxuan has been living in Yinjia Village since he was born. The farthest he can go is through the mountains and forests, and the most people he sees is when a villager gathers together when watching a big show in the village. With the magical use of the magical talisman, Yin Xiuxuan was able to do everything overnight.
When we arrived at Taiyang County, we also took a detour through Lianqu County and Qinghe County. In addition, there were few people traveling at night, so we didn't see many people at all.
Yin Xiuxuan was a thoughtful person, and he had heard the narrations of Wang Gang and others, but he still didn't have much preparation in his heart. Suddenly, a huge city appeared in front of Yin Xiuxuan's eyes. The crowds rushing into the city were several feet high.
The city wall, the city gate several feet wide, the soldiers holding swords standing in front of the city gate, all of these suddenly broke into Yin Xiuxuan's eyes.
Standing on the roadside, Yin Xiuxuan felt that his breathing was a little difficult, his face seemed to be a little hot, and his legs were trembling. However, Yin Xiuxuan knew that this was not timidity or fear, but excitement from the bottom of his heart.
The joy of seeing this wider world. Of course, the trembling in the legs was caused by using the magic walking talisman all night with almost no breaks. After all, using the magic walking talisman is also running on one's own legs.
Yin Xiu
I brought along the road signs issued by the village chief. I was originally worried about not being able to enter the city gate, but now I have no such worries at all.
After straightening his clothes, Yin Xiuxuan followed the flow of people towards Taiyang County.
Entering the county town, Yin Xiuxuan's eyes were even more shocked. Although the wooden buildings were not decorated with carved beams and beams, they mostly had whitewashed walls and rich doors. Besides the people who came from outside like Yin Xiuxuan just now, there were also many people wearing clothes.
Gorgeous men and women, I guess these are the residents of the county town!
Yin Xiuxuan watched as he walked, but he did not forget his goal. He walked to the roadside and saw a young man in colorful clothes walking out of a shop. Yin Xiuxuan stepped forward and said, "This little brother, can I ask for directions?"
The young man was walking with his head lowered, as if to cover something up. Unexpectedly, someone called him, and he suddenly raised his head. A face as flawless as jade appeared in front of Yin Xiuxuan.
"You!" The young man looked up at the person who called him, with a trace of annoyance on his face, and he wanted to drink Yin Xiuxuan, but unexpectedly his voice sounded like a warbler.
Yin Xiuxuan was startled. The young man also noticed the problem with his voice. Before he could drink, he stopped talking, cleared his throat, pretended to have a rough voice, and said impatiently: "What's the matter with you?"
Although Yin Xiuxuan paid attention to these strange things, he did not go into details. He just wanted to find his destination first, so he said: "This little brother, I want to go to Heishui Gate. Can you tell me?"
"Heishuimen! Why are you going to Heishuimen? Oh, so you are also going to sign up." The young man had the same expression.
"Sign up!" Yin Xiuxuan was confused and said again: "It's Heishuimen. Does this guy know?"
"Haha, of course I know. Since you are going to Blackwater Gate, come with me!" The young man smiled, raised his legs and left.
"Thank you so much, little brother!" Yin Xiuxuan thanked him and followed.
The young man walked in front, and Yin Xiuxuan walked behind. As he walked, the young man walked around, looking at this or touching that at the street stalls. He never stopped, and seemed to go to the city less often than Yin Xiuxuan.
Just like this, turning left and right, I don't know how long I walked, but after walking for a long time, the young man said without looking back: "Boy, the Blackwater Gate is coming soon. Master, I will accompany you for this walk."
Jiu, how can you thank me, Master?"
When Yin Xiuxuan heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It was the first time for Yin Xiuxuan to go out. Although he had no experience in the martial arts world, he had heard about intrigues and intrigues from Wang Gang and others. In addition, he had been working as a mason for many years, and he had also developed a delicate mind and a good mentality.
Just now he followed the young man all the way, and he was not defenseless at all. He secretly remembered all the routes in his heart. Although this county is very big, it is not as easy to get lost as the mountains and forests of Yinjia Village.
When Yin Xiuxuan summed up the route, he found that the young man had taken him around a long way. In fact, when he got here, he just turned onto a street where he asked for directions.
"Brother, it's really hard for you to take me this far. Thank you so much, brother!" Yin Xiuxuan found out that the other party was playing tricks on him, but he didn't reveal it. He just pretended to be stupid and thanked him.
"What, you're just thanking me like this, young master, huh, young master, I won't accompany you anymore!" After saying that, the young man left angrily.
When Yin Xiuxuan saw the young man leaving, he didn't stop him. He walked to the side of the road and asked an old farmer buying vegetables about the location of Heishui Gate. After the old farmer gave some directions, Yin Xiuxuan found that Heishui Gate was not far ahead. Yin Xiuxuan handed over a broken piece.
After thanking the old farmer for a silver tael, he walked directly towards Heishui Gate.
Yin Xiuxuan walked through a street and finally found the location of Heishuimen. Heishuimen is indeed the largest sect in Taiyang County. The entire street is occupied by Heishuimen. The main door of Heishuimen is four feet wide, the foyer is two feet deep, and the vermilion door panels are nailed
There are dozens of large golden bronze door nails, which are as powerful as the city gate. Looking up, a plaque half a foot long and half a foot high is hung on the door.
There are three characters in gold on a red background: "Black Water Gate".
Yin Xiuxuan sighed in his heart: "It's finally here!"
There were several sword-holders standing in front of the gate of Heishui Gate. They seemed to be the gatekeepers of Heishui Gate.
Yin Xiuxuan stepped forward, raised his hands to a knife-wielding man and said, "This brother, I'm here to find someone. I hope you'll let me know!"
"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for?" the sword holder said somewhat arrogantly.
"What I'm looking for are the four eldest brothers Wang Gang, Zhao Wu, Liu Hu, and Sun Qian from the Iron Cavalry Hall. I'm here on an appointment." Yin Xiuxuan heard the other party's tone and remembered that even Yinjiacun always asked for help when looking for people to do things.
He wanted to give him some benefits, so he took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and handed it over while talking.
The sword holder had just received the money, and felt that Yin Xiuxuan was sensible. He thought he was just looking for some ordinary disciples, and his expression softened a little. Who would have thought that Yin Xiuxuan announced the names of people with certain status in the four sects in succession?
He quickly asked: "Are the four great deacons you are looking for, little brother?"
Seeing the other party's appearance, Yin Xiuxuan felt a little strange, "Exactly. I wonder if the elder brother can report it?"
After receiving Yin Xiuxuan's confirmation, the sword holder felt that the silver in his hand was a little hot, so he quickly handed it back and said, "Little brother, please wait a moment. I will tell the four deacons right away. Please wait a moment."
When Yin Xiuxuan saw the sword holder returning the silver, he couldn't help but smile in his heart, but he didn't take it back. He pushed it in front of the sword holder again and said, "Brother, there is no need to do this. The four eldest brothers have taught me that I should repay kindness. These are my thanks to you."
It’s just a thank you gift for informing my little brother!”
Seeing Yin Xiuxuan's persistence, the man holding the sword smiled sheepishly, took the silver into his arms, said "wait a moment" and then turned to the side door.
Yin Xiuxuan waited in front of the door for a moment. The sword holder came out and said to Henry Zhang: "What a coincidence, little brother. The four deacons have all gone out to do business. It will probably take a few days to come back."
"Oh, that's it. Thank you, brother. I'll come back and see you in a few days!" Yin Xiuxuan said and was about to leave.
"Little brother, wait a moment!" The sword holder seemed to have remembered something and quickly called Yin Xiuxuan.
"Oh, brother, do you have any other advice?"
"My little brother came to see the four deacons this time, but do you want to enter the Black Water Gate?"
Yin Xiuxuan thought for a while and said: "Exactly!"
"In this way, you don't have to wait for the four deacons to come back!"
"Oh, why is that?"
"Young brother, you have come at the right time. If you usually need the recommendation of a deacon-level disciple to get started, but these days the sect is recruiting new people, even the little brother can give it a try. If you are lucky, you can pass the assessment.
It's just bad luck that I can get started. Once the four deacons come back, I can recommend my little brother again!"
"So it's this kind of thing. I wonder if there are any restrictions on recruiting new people?"
"Well, newcomers are not limited to male or female, but they must be between ten and fifteen years old. I think the little brother is about fourteen or fifteen years old! That's within this range!"
"It is indeed within this range, but I don't know what the assessment content is?" Although the other party misunderstood his age, Yin Xiuxuan did not explain it in words, but asked.
"Well, little brother, I don't know this either. Please forgive me for not being able to tell you."
"Oh, that's it, I'll sign up and give it a try!" Yin Xiuxuan finally made his decision.
"Okay, okay, then, little brother, just follow me!" As he said that, the sword holder held out his hand and was about to take Yin Xiuxuan in.
Yin Xiuxuan nodded and followed the sword holder into the Heishui Gate through the side door.
Just after Yin Xiuxuan entered the Black Water Gate, a figure walked out of the shadows in the corner of the street. It was the young man who had just taken Yin Xiuxuan out of the way.
"Huh, you still dare to pretend to be stupid with me, oh, no, you dare to act stupid with me. I know you are here to sign up at a glance, and you want to go through the back door, we will see!", muttered a few words and then disappeared.
