Chapter 96 Hope is shattered

In less than half an hour, Yan Liqiang, who had taken a shower, changed into a brand new outfit. Looking at the self in the mirror, Yan Liqiang almost couldn't recognize him.

Yan Liqiang in the mirror was completely refreshed. He wore a purple silk crown on his head, tied with an amber flying feather copper hairpin, and wore a silk blue robe, a pair of trousers of the same color. Under the robe, armor, clothes, and inner collars were all available. A red turquoise-decorated silver belt was tied around the waist of the blue robe, and a pair of deer-skin thick-sole leather straps were worn under his feet.

With this change, a beautiful and elegant boy with a peerless temperament appeared in front of Yan Liqiang instantly. Not to mention anything else, even if he called the dead Wu Tao to Yan Liqiang again, Wu Tao might not recognize that the person in front of him was the boy he saw in the market yesterday.

There is nothing wrong with the so-called "people rely on clothes and Buddhas" to rely on gold.

Yan Liqiang was also very satisfied when he looked at himself in the mirror.

When Yan Liqiang walked out of the room, the fat shopkeeper looked at Yan Liqiang's eyes as if he was watching a magic show and turned into a living person. He was stunned and could not believe that the beggar just now and the young man now were the same person. He looked at Yan Liqiang, and then he opened the room where he changed his clothes, and could not speak at all.

"Shopkeeper, burn or throw away those worn clothes, say goodbye!"

Yan Liqiang bowed to the shopkeeper and then walked out of the store.

"Good, is this young man doing magic..." Seeing Yan Liqiang leave, the shopkeeper murmured to himself.

...

After coming to the street outside, Yan Liqiang found someone casually and asked how to go to the Huzhou Villa of Lingshan Sect. Then he went straight to the Huzhou Villa of Lingshan Sect.

...

An hour later, Yan Liqiang came outside the Huzhou Villa of Lingshan Sect.

The Lingshan School is indeed worthy of being the four major sects in the world. It is just a Huzhou villa. It occupies an area of ​​more than 400 acres in Huzhou City, where every inch of land is valuable. From a distance, the Huzhou villa of the Lingshan School is like a palace. Behind the high walls and red tiles, there are lush sky trees everywhere, and tall buildings and pavilions are hidden in the green shadows of trees.

The gate of the Huzhou villa of Lingshan School is like a smaller version of the Huzhou city gate. The gate is facing an open square. At this moment, outside the gate, there were almost thousands of young people gathered. The young people lined up in long queues, divided into several routes, and were participating in the selection.

Yan Liqiang only saw such a scene in his previous life at the registration site for taking civil service exams.

On the other side of the team, there is a registration office, and there are hundreds of people queuing in the registration office. Registration is the first time to select. Those who have obtained qualifications can get a sign at the registration office and can participate in the subsequent selection. Those who are not qualified will be screened out at the registration office.

Yan Liqiang also came to the registration office and lined up behind the line to prepare for registration.

In the team at the registration office, Yan Liqiang attracted a lot of attention as soon as he arrived. Many people were quietly looking at Yan Liqiang, especially a few young women in the registration team. Seeing Yan Liqiang, their eyes were even brighter.

"Hello brother, let's meet me. My name is Lu Wengang. Today I will sign up for the selection of disciples from the Huzhou courtyard of Lingshan School. I don't know what you call me..."

The one who was ahead of Yan Liqiang was also a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. The boy was a little honest, but his eyes were very lively, and there was a cleverness in his simplicity. Seeing Yan Liqiang coming, the boy took the initiative to say hello to Yan Liqiang.

"Hello, my name is Yan Liqiang!" Yan Liqiang smiled.

"Brother, you are not from Huzhou?"

"Yeah, no..."

"Oh, I'm not from Huzhou either. I'm from Xiaoshan County, Guanzhou. I heard that the Huzhou Villa in Lingshan Sect began to recruit and select disciples this year, and came here specially..."

"Does this Lingshan Sect rarely recruit disciples in Huzhou Villa?"

"Of course, the last time Lingshan Sect Huzhou Villa recruited disciples was three years ago. Such an opportunity is not easy to encounter. Brother, have you passed the horse stance..."

"It's already past..."

"It's good to pass it. I saw that those who left just now had not passed the Mabu Pass, and they could not even pass the registration. If you want to enter the Huzhou Villa of Lingshan Sect, unless you have special talents, you will have to pass the Mabu Pass at least for just registering for this level!" Lu Wengang turned his head and said to Yan Liqiang, and then blinked, "Actually, I just passed the Mabu Pass two months ago. I want to join the Lingshan Sect, but I don't want to learn some martial arts of the Lingshan Sect..."

"Brother Lu joined the Lingshan Sect to learn martial arts, why is that?" Yan Liqiang asked curiously.

Lu Wengang raised his face and said in an admirational tone, "The person who is in charge of the Qianji Hall of Lingshan Sect is Zhang Yourong, the world's number one master of the mechanism. I heard that when Zhang Yourong was thirty, he made a flying wooden bird. The wooden bird could fly in the sky for several hours without landing. It's so amazing. If I join the Lingshan Sect, I might be able to enter the Qianji Hall of Lingshan Sect and learn the skills of the mechanism with the world's number one master of the mechanism, which is much more interesting than practicing martial arts..."

Since there is an emperor who likes to be a carpenter and locksmith, it is not surprising that there is a young man who joined the Lingshan School because he likes mechanical skills. Yan Liqiang understood and smiled, "I wish Brother Lu to join the Lingshan School Qianjitang as soon as possible..."

"Well, my dream is to make wooden ox and flowing horses one day. Do you think that if those wooden ox and flowing horses that don't eat or drink can go to the fields to help people work and help people pull things on the road, they can make people free and make the poor rich and have enough food, isn't that interesting..."

"Yes, it's quite interesting, this idea is also very good!" Yan Liqiang smiled. He did not tell Lu Wengang that the wooden ox and flowing horses he dreamed of were actually not difficult to make. They only need a steam engine. However, no matter what kind of machine, it can only improve labor efficiency and productivity. Machines cannot change the essence of social production relations and class contradictions. Even if there is a wooden ox and flowing horse, the poor are still poor, and the rich are still rich.

Hearing Yan Liqiang hated and praised his thoughts, Lu Wengang became interested as if he met a confidant and talked endlessly to Yan Liqiang about the mechanism he liked...

...

After more than half an hour, some people in front passed the registration level and took a sign to queue up next to them. Some people failed and left one by one.

When it was Lu Wengang's turn, Lu Wengang showed his knowledge of the agency. The person who signed up checked the strength of his fists, then nodded, left a handprint, gave him a sign, and asked him to line up on the other side.

"Brother Yan, I'm waiting for you there..." Lu Wengang happily raised the sign in his hand to Yan Liqiang and ran there to line up.

...

As soon as Lu Wen left, it was Yan Liqiang's turn next.

"Name?"

"Yan Liqiang..."

"age?"

“14…”

"What kind of life do you do when your home is home, your parents' name?"

Yan Liqiang hesitated for a moment...

Seeing Yan Liqiang hesitating, the man at the registration office of Lingshan Sect stared at Yan Liqiang's face and said seriously, "I remind you that once you become a disciple of Lingshan Sect, the Lingshan Sect will send people to the place where you come to verify the information. If there is any falsehood, the Lingshan Sect will be expelled from Lingshan Sect at the least, and the spy will be punished immediately and will not be punished..."

Yan Liqiang was silent for a moment, and then said, "I have been home since I was a child, wandering around, and I have no place to live. I have never seen my parents at home..."

"Who raised you?"

"An old beggar, he passed away a few years ago!"
