Chapter 43

Three days later, the number of outer court disciples recruited by Xuanmen was not as many as one hundred as Shen Qi said, but there were also 60, which was twice the original number of 30.

Fortunately, on the second day after Shen Qi came back from Fucheng, he recruited a team of professional construction craftsmen from the town to build the disciples' dormitory, and this wooden house was built very quickly with the money to buy the materials, and it was completed in a few days We bought a batch of thatched houses, otherwise the original Taoist houses would not be enough to accept so many outer court disciples at once.

Originally, apart from a main hall and two side halls in Taoism, there were two rows of thatched huts facing each other in front of the main hall, with five rooms on each side, a total of ten rooms.

Now, a row of thatched houses has been added behind the two rows of thatched houses, with 10 houses in each row, making a total of 20 houses.Each house is about the same size and design as the original thatched cottage, with wood as the body and thatch as the roof. It is a single room, five feet long and three feet wide, with a window on the right of the door that can be opened and closed.

In addition, a wooden fence was built 30 feet away from the last row of thatched houses.In order to leave enough space for the disciples to move around in the courtyard, the wooden fence is 150 feet long from east to west and 100 feet long from north to south.

The construction of the wooden fence began after the disciples’ dormitory was completed, so the craftsmen are still continuing, and the whole Xuanmen is almost like a large construction site.

This did not affect the excitement of the 60 outer court disciples, because in their view, the vigorous construction scene of Xuanmen just showed that Xuanmen was indeed going to grow stronger.No matter what you think before you come to Xuanmen, it is better to join a martial arts school that is going uphill than to join a dead school.

And because the dormitory hadn't been allocated yet, these disciples from the outer courtyard all carried their bags and saluted, and gathered in the spacious training ground after repairing and expanding to chat, which was quite lively.

"Which village are you from?" A fat boy asked a tall, thin boy of the same age next to him.

"Hecha Village."

"Isn't Hecha Village the territory of Zhenjianmen? Why don't you go to Zhenjianmen?"

The thin and tall boy said: "True Sword Sect is not good. I only got a 299 rank in the Martial Arts Conference, which is far behind Xuanmen. By the way, which village are you from?"

"In my town."

"Then why don't you go to Bichi Villa?" the thin and tall boy asked.

"Bichi Mountain Villa said that I am not qualified enough, unless I pay 100 taels of apprenticeship fee, my family has some savings for raising pigs, but 100 taels is not easy to get. My father said that I will definitely be a disciple of the outer court for the rest of my life when I go to Bichi Villa If you can’t learn real skills, it’s better to join the Taoist sect, since they don’t charge apprenticeship fees anyway, as long as you learn a little martial arts, you can earn money…”

On the martial arts training ground, there are not a few people who talk like these two teenagers. Even those who seem to be more withdrawn will be dragged to talk by active people.

It wasn't until Shen Qi brought Ye Hongmei and Guo Zhong to the martial arts training ground that the disciples from the outer courtyard became quiet.

It stands to reason that Shen Qi is only 17 years old, about the same age as most of the teenagers present, so it should be difficult for these teenagers to feel awe.But the fact was just the opposite, these teenagers looked at Shen Qi with awe.

Before they decided to become disciples of the outer court of Xuanmen, these youngsters had heard many times about Shen Qi's deeds of destroying the bandits in Baifengling, defeating Chen Baiya and Zuo Song of the Qishan faction in one-on-two, and they had already regarded Shen Qi as a young master.

In the world of martial arts, ordinary people are naturally in awe of martial artists, and they are even more in awe of martial arts masters.

Therefore, when facing the 60 outer court disciples, Shen Qi didn't make any show of showing his prestige on the spot, and straight to the point he said in a loud voice: "From today onwards, all of you are disciples of my Taoist outer court, and you should strictly abide by the Taoist rules." .One must not betray the teacher's school, and those who violate it shall kill themselves; two must not violate the teacher's orders, those who violate martial arts will be abolished and expelled from the teacher; three must not violate the laws and regulations of the Martial Arts League.

"In addition to these three rules, you also need to keep in mind the three admonitions of the patriarch. First, practice martial arts with your heart and do things diligently; second, be harmonious with the same family and be friendly to the people; third, be righteous in your heart and cut off evil thoughts."

"In this way, we can achieve something in the martial arts and not go astray. Do you all remember?!"

The three not-to-do rules and the three-due exhortations of Xuanmen are very simple, and they are similar to the sect rules and teacher’s exhortations upheld by many martial arts schools. It can be said that the people in the martial arts world have been familiar with these concepts since childhood, so these outer court disciples are easy to Just remember.

Hearing Shen Qi's question, these outer court disciples all said: "Remember!"

Although the voice was quite loud, it was uneven and lacked momentum.

Fortunately, what Shen Qi wanted was not the army, so he didn't care about it, and immediately got to the point, and said loudly again: "Okay, the next ones are divided according to the living skills reported during the registration. Those who are good at hunting are listed in the north, and those who are good at raising pigs Those who are good at slaughtering are listed in the west, and those who are good at planting medicine are listed in the east. The rest are listed in the middle."

Shen Qi made it very clear, so soon the 60 outer court disciples were divided into five groups according to what Shen Qi said.

And because Shen Qi had instructed Ye Hongmei to pay attention to the recruitment ratio of various life skills, the number of people in each of the five groups was not much different from what Shen Qi had planned.

Among them, 30 people can hunt, 10 people can raise pigs, 10 people can grow medicine, and 5 people can slaughter.Among the remaining five people, three can cook and stir-fry, one can carpentry, and one can blacksmith.

It can be said that with the addition of these outer court disciples, Xuanmen is almost becoming a "novice village" that can barely support itself.

"It's getting late today, so I'll allocate dormitories for you first, and we'll talk about other things tomorrow." Shen Qi explained again, and he and Ye Hongmei were busy allocating dormitories for the outer court disciples.

First of all, men and women must not live together; secondly, those who come to the same village should live separately as much as possible; finally, people with the same life skills should be grouped together as much as possible.

Of the original 10 thatched cottages, Chu Suoran, Ye Hongmei, Qin Xianger, Guo Zhong, Bai Po Po, Mu Que, Aunt Zhou, and Zhou Lan share eight of them, and the remaining two are the original kitchen and the other is for sundries between.Therefore, the disciples in the outer courtyard can only allocate 20 newly built thatched huts.

Considering that among the 60 outer court disciples, there are 52 males and only 8 females, Shen Qi made the decision to let two female disciples share a room, and four male disciples share a room.In this way, 4 of the 20 thatched cottages were used.

Because the bed was a two-story double bed built by a carpenter under Shen Qi's instructions, so even a thatched hut can sleep four people without being crowded.Of course, comfort certainly can not be called.Fortunately, the outer courtyard disciples recruited by Xuanmen this time are all from ordinary families, and they are not dissatisfied with the dormitory conditions arranged by Xuanmen, and they dare not be dissatisfied.

After all, they came to practice martial arts, not to enjoy themselves.

"East No. [-], this is the room." The fat boy from the pig farmer in the town took the tall and thin boy from Hecha Village who had chatted with him to the ninth thatched house on the east side, and glanced at the red-painted lettering on the wooden door. , happily walked in.

"Are you still literate?" The thin and tall boy asked in surprise.

"I don't know much, just over 100 characters." The fat boy said a little proudly.

The thin and tall boy chose the upper bunk of the fat boy as the bed, climbed up as nimbly as a monkey, threw the burden on the head of the bed, lay down on the pillow, raised his legs and looked at the furnishings in the room, saying: " The arrangement of Xuanmen is so strange, it is completely different from that of True Sword Sect."

"Have you ever been to the True Sword Gate?" the fat boy stopped making the bed and looked up.

The thin and tall boy said: "My cousin became a disciple of the outer courtyard of the True Sword Sect last year, and told me a lot about the True Sword Sect..."

Before the tall and thin boy finished speaking, two more boys walked in.These two are of average size, but one is black and strong, and the other is rare and pale.After entering the door, the black and strong boy chose another lower berth, and the other boy could only choose the last upper berth.

The fat boy seemed to like socializing quite a lot, so he immediately smiled and said, "It seems that from now on we will be fellow students and roommates. My name is He Jing, and the one on my upper bunk is Jiang Huan. What do you call the two brothers?"

The pale boy showed a sunny smile and spoke first, "My name is Ji Changsheng."

The strong black boy was the last to speak, and said, "My name is...Kang Hu."

It turned out to be a stutter!

The other three were all surprised, and before they had time to ask more questions, a young girl's crisp voice came from outside the door: "Here is Kang Hu who can cook?"
