New people are recruited every twenty years, in a ceremony called the Ascension Ceremony.
It has been a long time since anyone from Shijia Village passed the screening for the Ascension Ceremony.
"According to the memory fragments, in order to pass the Ascension Ceremony, one needs a qualification called spiritual roots. This thing is very rare. I don't have it or my body is very poor."
Not to mention that there is no such thing, even if there is, his body is dead, so how can he pass the screening?
However, Tang Ansheng was not worried, as he had his own way to pass the screening of the Ascension Ceremony.
"The town or government will issue a notice tomorrow, we'll see then."
As he was thinking this, the gate of the yard suddenly opened and a figure ran over in panic. It was Xia Fan.
"how?"
"Grandpa, I...I killed someone!" Xia Fan looked terrified.
He was only sixteen years old and it was his first time killing someone, so it was normal for him to panic.
"Oh." Tang Ansheng nodded.
"No, old man, I killed someone!"
Seeing that Tang Ansheng was unmoved, Xia Fan suspected that he might have heard it wrong, so he repeated it again.
"Ok, I know."
"..."
Xia Fan didn't know what to say at this moment.
Tang Ansheng waved his hand, asking him to come closer, and then asked, "Did he kill a good guy or a bad guy?"
"He should be considered a bad guy."
Seeing Tang Ansheng so calm, Xia Fan's originally nervous heart gradually calmed down.
"How many were killed?"
How many?
Xia Fan was stunned. Why did the old man's behavior differ from what he expected?
He thought that after the old man heard that he had killed someone, he would either take him to see the authorities or ask him to pack up his things and run away.
How could it be like this?
It's like there's no difference between him killing a person and the old man killing a chicken.
"Two." Xia Fan gestured and added, "There were four in total. They stopped me, and I had no choice but to resist."
"what?!"
When Tang Ansheng heard this, he quickly stood up, packed his things, and walked out.
Seeing him like this, Xia Fan's heart, which had originally been at ease, was lifted up again.
"Will the old man report me to the police?"
"That's right. I killed someone, so it's normal for me to be arrested and reported to the police."
If someone else caught him, he might resist and try to run away, but how could he run away if the old man caught him?
He wouldn't dare to run away even if he was beaten to death.
"Hmm? Why are you still standing there? Let's go."
"There are still two left to kill. Kill them quickly so that you can come back for dinner."
"Oh...huh?!"
IX. WulinⅠ⑧Jiulin Lake
Xia Fan rubbed his ears, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.
Chapter 6: Huashen Sect (k)
Tang Ansheng followed Xia Fan to the place where he was surrounded. There were only two corpses on the ground, and it was obvious that they had died not long ago.
"Master, how do we deal with this?"
The fear that Xia Fan originally had because of his first murder disappeared as he walked with Tang Ansheng.
This made Xia Fan sigh in his heart, he was worthy of being the former champion, he had seen many storms and his psychological quality was a thousand times stronger than his.
From the beginning till now, he had never seen any other expression on the old man's face, and he had always had a calm expression.
"This place is not far from the main road between the town and the village, so it is easy to be found." Xia Fan said.
When he came back from the town, Ergouzi and his gang didn't want to rob him on the road as that would have a bad impact, so they "forced" him to go to a remote place nearby.
But who would have thought that this would be the final result?
"If he's dead, he's dead. What else can we do?" Tang Ansheng said casually.
He is not a Daluo Jinxian who can bring the dead back to life.
"No, old man, what I mean is whether we should dig a hole and bury them. The longer we can delay, the better."
After this period of time, Xia Fan calmed down and said, "At worst, we can just pack up and run away."
"Those two guys will definitely report to the police when they return."
Tang Ansheng's original idea was to kill the two thugs directly, but unfortunately Xia Fan was not familiar with the two men at all, and he didn't know where they were running.
He wouldn't bother with that.
"It's okay, they're just small things." Tang Ansheng waved his hand.
Seeing that he didn't care at all, Xia Fan was startled and thought that the old man had really seen the world. In his eyes, the death of two people was just like the death of two bugs.
But he was still a little worried and said, "But the government..."
Seeing him like this, Tang Ansheng realized that even though the other party had lived in Shijia Village for more than ten years, he still had a fear of the government in his heart.
"Fear?"
"Yeah." Xia Fan nodded obediently.
"You are afraid because you are worried that the government will arrest you and put you in jail, or that you will pay for your life with your life. Am I right?"
At this moment, Tang Ansheng showed off his other identity—the Great Mentor of All Realms—and began to provide psychological education to Xia Fan.
"This...is." Xia Fan said after hesitating for a moment.
"Look, I told you to practice martial arts well but you didn't listen. If you reach the flesh training stage, your physical fitness will be greatly improved, and your speed will surpass that of ordinary people. The remaining two will not be able to escape."
Tang Ansheng said: "When the time comes, kill the four people and bury them somewhere deep in the mountains and forests. Who would know it was you who did it?"
"Forehead……"
Old man, is this what you wanted to say?
Xia Fan thought that the other party would teach him a lesson, saying that he shouldn't kill people, but he didn't expect that he thought he had killed too few people.
"Thinking about it carefully, what the old man said seems to make some sense."
Xia Fan's thoughts began to change. "Er Gouzi and his friends are idle and are hated by everyone in the village. Even if they disappear for ten days or half a month, no one will care."
"Even if the hunting team in the village accidentally found their bodies in the deep mountains and forests, they probably wouldn't report it to the police and would just pretend they didn't see it."
"After all, reporting to the police is a bit troublesome. If you are not careful, you may get yourself into trouble."
"Besides, there are many ferocious beasts in the deep mountains and old forests. It is a question whether their bodies are still there."
Xia Fan did not realize that his thoughts began to develop in an abnormal direction after being influenced by his surroundings for a long time.
"The government here is useless. If you, the dean of the martial arts academy, killed these hooligans, what do you think the county magistrate would say?"
"You can say...good killing?" Xia Fan said subconsciously.
"Yeah."
Tang Ansheng didn't even look at the two bodies under his feet, and walked towards the town, saying:
"Now you have a chance. If you succeed, not only can you kill two thugs, but the county magistrate will personally tie up the remaining two and send them to you to kill."
"Ah, old man, what opportunity are you talking about?"
What kind of opportunity would allow the county magistrate to personally capture the person and kill him?
You have to know that in the county town and the surrounding villages, in this vast land, the county magistrate is half the sky and no one dares to offend him.
As for why it is only half of the sky, it is because the other half of the sky is the Dean of the Martial Academy!
"I want to achieve what the old man said. At the very least, I have to become someone like the dean."
But the dean is a terrifying figure who is at the fifth level of physical training and one step away from the sixth level. How can he compare to him?
Without thinking too much, Tang Ansheng was already walking farther and farther away, and Xia Fan hurried to catch up.
Although he didn't know why the other party went to the county town, Xia Fan still followed him step by step.
When they arrived at the county town, Xia Fan keenly discovered that there seemed to be a lot of martial law here. There were soldiers patrolling at regular intervals, and the streets were not as lively as before.
A serious atmosphere seemed to be spreading.
"Master, what's going on? It wasn't like this when I came here before."
Xia Fan said: "It looks like some important person has come."
"Well, you guessed it right."
"Master, do you know something?"
When Xia Fan saw Tang Ansheng like this, he suddenly understood something. "The old man never revealed his past stories before, but recently he revealed them all to me. At first I thought that the old man had let it go and was no longer obsessed with the past, but now it seems that this is not the case."
"It seems that some important person has come to this county town, and the old man seems to be very familiar with this. Could it be that he knew about this a long time ago?"
Xia Fan looked at Tang Ansheng's back, and a guess gradually formed in his mind.
"Could it be that this important person is someone the old man knew before?"
"Yes, the old man was a champion marquis when he was young. The people he knows are definitely well-known and important people. It is reasonable for the county magistrate to treat them like this."
"I'm afraid the reason why the old man brought me here is so that I can... use connections!"
"He wants to use his connections and his reputation to fight for a future for me..."
Thinking of this, tears gradually welled up in Xia Fan's eyes. He never expected that the old man, who had always been stubborn and unyielding, would one day use his connections and ask for help for him.
He felt very uncomfortable.
"Grandpa, why don't we go back?" Xia Fan said. He didn't want the old man to ask for help.
Although he was only sixteen years old, he had learned a lot during his one year in the martial arts academy. He knew that so-called connections were only useful when the social status of both parties was equal. Otherwise, he could only look at the other party's face.
But there are too many scumbags in this world, and many people turn their backs on others.
He didn't want the old man to be humiliated.
Tang Ansheng looked back and wondered what this kid was doing again. Was there some sand in his eyes?
"Bang bang."
After hitting Xia Fan on the forehead twice, Tang Ansheng said, "What are you going to do back? It's a waste of time. Let's go find a restaurant to stay in now."
"The announcement should be sent out tomorrow at the latest."
"Hiss...Oh." Xia Fan touched his forehead that was hit and immediately grimaced.
…………
A day ago, a flying boat was speeding in the sky thousands of meters above the ground.
"Junior Brother Liu, the Liu Town we are going to now should be your hometown." A middle-aged man in a green gown on the plate armor said.
"Brother, this is indeed my hometown." The cold-blooded young man holding a long sword saluted respectfully.
His name is Liu An. He went out traveling five years ago and by chance embarked on the path of cultivating immortals. Now he is an outer disciple of the Huashen Sect.
"Ah, Senior Brother Liu, I heard that your family runs a martial arts school. Is that true?" said another woman with two braids and a quirky look.
