Longevity Begins with Marrying a Wife

  Chapter 104 Qualification Examination

   Private room on the second floor.

   Waited for half an hour.

   Shopkeeper Qu came in belatedly, drank Kou Ling tea and sat down and said with a smile, "I said something to Deacon Jindan, and Master Shen Fu has been waiting for a long time."

  Shen Ping hurriedly said, "The shopkeeper Qu is polite, and I didn't wait long."

  Just when shopkeeper Qu was about to ask what was going on, his eyes lit up, "Master Shen Fu has a thick and mellow spiritual energy. This means that he has completed his Qi training?"

   "Haha, congratulations, congratulations!"

  He seemed even happier than Shen Ping.

  Shen Ping said helplessly, "Treasurer Qu, I'm here just for this matter. I don't know what conditions are required for the special guest secretary assessment of this talisman master?"

   We talked several times before.

   Shopkeeper Qu couldn't explain everything in detail.

  This time he tried to make a second-order medium-grade talisman and found a problem, so he came to ask to understand. If it is really impossible to achieve, he can only give up and build a foundation.

   After all, he is not young.

   There can be no further delay.

Shopkeeper Qu did not respond, but stood up enthusiastically and said, "Master Shen Fu, Qu only knows a little bit about the conditions involved in the assessment of special guest ministers, and the total station of the Zhenbao Building in Qingyang City is only above the level of a deacon. It’s really clear, and you have to apply to the deacon for the assessment.”

   "Let's go, I'll take you to the deacon."

  Shen Ping was startled, and couldn't help but said, "See Deacon Xia?"

   Above Keqing of Zhenbaolou is the deacon.

   To become a deacon, the minimum level of cultivation must be Jindan Daoist.

  Yunshanfang time.

  Although he has met deacons, elders, and even elders at the Nascent Soul level.

  But that was just a meeting.

When I arrived in Qingyang City, I was only able to meet the deacon, first-class, and second-class guests, let alone deacons and elders, even second-class guests were rarely seen, and it was impossible to talk about making friends. .

   Now I suddenly have to deal with Jindan Daoist.

to be honest.

  He was a little nervous.

   Shopkeeper Qu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Deacon Xia treats people kindly. Besides, you are going to apply for the special guest evaluation. If Deacon Xia knows, he will definitely support it with all his strength. This is a big deal for the general station."

   See here.

   Shen Ping took a deep breath, and then followed.

   Jindan real people are rarely in the real treasure building.

  However, there is something going on in the building today, and shopkeeper Qu was delayed because of this.

  So Deacon Xia happened to be in the backyard wing.

   Of course even if it is not there.

   Shopkeeper Qu at most took Shen Ping to walk a little longer.

  The door of the wing room.

  Golden Elixir mana breath rushed to his face.

   "Deacon Xia."

   "What is it?"

  A gentle voice came from inside the door.

   Shopkeeper Qu didn't say anything, but gave Shen Ping a look.

  Shen Ping stepped forward hurriedly, clapping his hands and drumming his feet, "Junior Zhenbaolou's third-class talisman master Keqing, Shen Ping, I came here today to apply for the special-class guest examination..."

  The voice has not yet fallen.

The figure of Deacon Xia was already standing at the door, his mana aura was restrained, and he glanced at Shen Ping with piercing eyes, "I know you, the talisman master assessment held in Yunshanfang can pass the Qi training period, and the level of talisman dao It's not bad, but do you know what the minimum requirements are for applying for the special examination of a talisman master?"

  The final voice rang in Shen Ping's ears.

  Shen Ping's own spiritual power was running rapidly, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He suppressed the restless spiritual power and said in a low voice, "Senior Qu once told you that you can make second-level low-grade talisman seals during the Qi training period!"

   As he spoke, he released a trace of foundation-building spiritual consciousness.

  Deacon Xia suddenly smiled, "Come in."

  The two walked back and forth into the wing room.

  The shopkeeper Qu still stood respectfully outside the door.

"sit."

   "Senior Xie Xia!"

  Shen Ping sat halfway on the chair, leaning forward slightly, with a respectful face.

  The person in front of me is Jindan Daoist.

   Moreover, being able to serve as a deacon at the general station is simply impossible for ordinary Jindan.

Deacon Xia said in a gentle voice, "Shen Keqing, you already know the minimum requirements for the special assessment, and you have the foundation-building consciousness during the Qi training period. Presumably, you can make second-level low-grade talisman seals, but you need to pass the assessment. The conditions are much harsher."

  Shen Ping cupped his hands, "Please tell Senior Xia."

Deacon Xia said bluntly, "Every special guest minister is the core of my Zhenbao building, so all applicants will first undergo a qualification assessment. The evaluators need five Jindan real people, and three of them must have second-level top-grade talisman masters. Ability."

   "After confirming your qualifications, the headquarters will send Elder Yuanying to **** you to a place where you need to pass three assessments. Only after you pass all three will you be able to obtain the special guest card, but this is only temporary..."

  Shen Ping was secretly stunned. Although he guessed that the special examination would be very strict, he didn't expect it to be so complicated. The qualification examination alone required an evaluation by a Jindan real person.

   Here comes the moment.

  He faintly felt that this special guest minister was really not simple.

   "Qing Shen, if you have any doubts, it's okay to say so."

  Deacon Xia said seriously.

  The main station of Zhenbao Building has been stationed in Qingyang City for so many years. It is not that there are no special guest applicants, but more than 90% have not even passed the qualification examination. As for the further three examinations, none of them succeeded.

even so.

  Every time he meets an applicant, Deacon Xia will explain everything in detail.

  Shen Ping raised his eyes and asked, "Senior Xia, I don't know what kind of conditions are required for this qualification and the three follow-up assessments, such as the number and efficiency of making second-level inferior talisman seals..."

  Deacon Xia shook his head lightly, "I don't know the content of the assessment, I only know that it seems to be different every time."

  Shen Ping couldn't help feeling disappointed, but he quickly asked again, "Senior Xia, how long will the assessment last? To tell you the truth, this junior is already old. If he exceeds sixty, it may be difficult for him to establish a foundation."

  Deacon Xia glanced at Shen Ping.

   Almost instantly.

  Shen Ping felt a wave of divine consciousness attacking him, his face was calm and his heart was a little nervous.

   "The age is indeed not young."

   "But it's okay."

   "As far as I know, the assessment will last up to two years. If it goes well, it will only take one year, or even half a year."

  Deacon Xia smiled and said, "Does Qing Ke have any questions?"

  Shen Ping stood up and bowed to salute, "Everyone knows this junior, thank you Senior Xia for your patient explanation."

   "Then do you want to apply for the qualification examination for special guest minister?"

   Heard this.

   Shen Ping said solemnly, "Yes!"

Deacon Xia stroked his palms and said, "Okay, you go back and wait patiently. I will arrange this matter immediately. After the other Golden Elixir evaluators reply, I will send you a message from Fellow Daoist Qu. It will take a month at most. Get ready."

  …

  The entrance of Zhenbao Building.

   Shopkeeper Qu sent it out in person.

   "Master Shen Fu."

   "The special guest minister has a lot to do with it, even the qualification assessment must be taken seriously."

   "If you can really pass the qualification, you will benefit a lot."

  Hear the sound transmission.

  Shen Ping cupped his hands in response, "Thank you for reminding me, Senior Qu."

  Go back to Huiquan Lane courtyard.

  The wives and concubines have not returned from Nancheng yet.

Sitting alone in the hall with his eyes closed, he recalled what Deacon Xia said, and slowly a surge of energy rose in his heart. After ten years of hard work, he never slacked off, and never hesitated. Yes, and he gritted his teeth and insisted.

   Frost, rain and snow.

  Sun and wind.

   Never wavered for a moment.

   It is because of this that there is such a level of amulet.

   And another month will be the time when the real gold will be refined by fire!

   Suddenly opened his eyes.

  Shen Ping stepped out of the hall with a flick of his sleeve robe and walked into the talisman making room.

   Regardless of whether you can jump over the dragon's gate or not.

  He has to be fully prepared.

  …

  Day by day.

   Except for double cultivation, Shen Ping spent the rest of the time in the talisman making room, so that he could always maintain his proficiency in talisman seals.

   Just like that, a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

   This day is Maoshi.

He first prayed for blessings and meditated, then put on a brand new embroidered plain white robe and stood in the talisman making room, while his wives and concubines carefully arranged his temples, eyebrows, and cleaned up any blemishes on his face, and then cleaned every part of the robe. Textures are checked several times.

  Remaining time.

  The wives and concubines stayed by Shen Ping's side.

  Yu Yan stood guard at the gate of the courtyard.

  They know that today is the most important day for their husband.

  The sky gradually turned white.

  Morning dew exudes fragrance on the tips of young jujube leaves in the small courtyard.

  When a ray of morning glow penetrated the clouds and sprinkled towards the small courtyard.

   Shen Ping's communication symbol vibrated slightly.

   Shopkeeper Qu's voice soon rang out.

   "The qualification of the special guest minister begins."

   "Invite Shen Fushi to come to Zhenbao Building for assessment!"

   Shen Ping, who maintained his standing posture, took a deep breath.

   Stepped out of the talisman room.

  The wives and concubines followed behind.

   The moment you step out of the small courtyard.

   "Husband!"

  Wang Yun called Shen Ping to stop.

   Turn around.

  Suddenly saw Yu Yan, Wang Yun, Bai Yuying, Luo Qing clenched their hands into fists and waved towards him.

"come on!"

  He silently added in his heart.

   Then he smiled and walked forward resolutely.

  …

   Zhenbao Building.

   In the past, there were many monks entering and leaving the threshold, but today it is deserted.

   Shopkeeper Qu stood at the door and waited.

  Seeing a familiar figure not far away, he smiled and hurriedly greeted him.

   "Senior Qu."

   "How can I ask you to greet me in person, I really dare not do it!"

  Shen Ping smiled wryly again and again.

   Shopkeeper Qu shook his head, "Master Shen Fu, you only need to remember one thing today, and pass the assessment with all your strength, and don't worry about anything else."

  Finally, he said, "Don't be influenced."

"Walk!"

   Shopkeeper Qu led Shen Ping across the threshold.

  Wow.

   Almost instantly.

   Dao Dao's eyes converged.

   There is no breath, let alone any spiritual pressure.

  But Shen Ping felt the heavy pressure like a mountain.

  The third-class guest ministers stood on both sides.

   looked at him with a smile on his face.

  Following Shopkeeper Qu all the way there, just as he stepped into the backyard, the pressure suddenly increased ten thousand times.

  Second-class guest.

  First-class guest minister.

  Even Jindan real person Deacon Xia stood at the entrance of the small courtyard hall.

  There is curiosity, smile, doubt, and disdain in their eyes.

  All kinds of emotions are superimposed.

  Although there is no breath, no sound.

  But this kind of tranquility made Shen Ping feel like stepping on a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire with every step he took.

  Qu shopkeeper cited in front.

  But Shen Ping understood what the other party said before.

   Don't be affected.

   Face this silent pressure.

  How could he, a qi cultivator, not be affected.

"nobody."

   "None of them are human."

  Shen Ping kept hinting in his heart, he looked at Shopkeeper Qu, and couldn't help but secretly thought that it would be nice if it was Mu Jin.

   Difficult to walk to the entrance of the hall.

  Deacon Xia said with a smile, "Go in."

   Shopkeeper Qu stood aside and stretched out his hand as a gesture of please.

   Shen Ping nodded and stepped in.

   Unexpectedly, there was a beautiful woman sitting in the hall, with a slight smile on her lips, wearing a brown-purple round-neck silver brocade gown, her exquisite and enchanting figure was undoubtedly prominent.

  She stood up and took a few steps, her round silhouette trembling slightly, "Mr. Shen, I'm in charge of the qualification assessment for special guest ministers. From now on, I will be by your side throughout the whole process. If you have any questions, you can ask them."

   "Follow me."

   As she spoke, her waist twisted, and there was a more majestic roundness under the coiled black hair.

  Shen Ping followed behind unhurriedly.

  Looking carefully at the round material, the inner tension quickly melted away.

  He smiled with relief.

  Come to the second room on the left side of the hall. The layout is almost exactly the same as the third-class guest assessment last time.

  The beautiful woman stopped and turned sideways, the smile on her charming face seemed to be a little more.

   "Shen Keqing."

   "There are three second-order talisman materials on the jade table, you just need to make them successfully."

   “This is just the first step.”

  Listen to what the beautiful woman said.

   Shen Ping looked at the jade table.

  He is very familiar with these three materials, namely the Armor Charm, the Lightning Talisman, and the Falling Flame Talisman.

   But only three copies.

   This means he has to get it right the first time.

   "Senior, is there a time limit?"

"No."

   "Just make it successfully to pass this first step."

   Shen Ping nodded and walked to the jade table.

  He closed his eyes for a moment.

   Then meditate and pray again.

   Lifting the talisman pen, he didn't hesitate to make the talisman.

   On the right side of the hall.

  Five Jindan Daoist people sit together in a room.

  They were a little surprised when they looked at the screen. The qualification examination for the special guest minister not only needs to test the applicant's level of amulet, but also needs to do some simple tests on the applicant's heart.

  From the moment you step into the threshold of Zhenbao Tower, the psychic assessment begins.

Facing the second-class and first-class guests who are stronger than myself, the invisible pressure is difficult for ordinary people to bear. Even the tough people will feel pressure and need to adjust their mental state. very fast.

   But no one spoke.

   They watched carefully.

  The xinxing level is considered to be passed, but the next talisman making is not so easy.

  Because no one can guarantee that all the talisman seals are made in one go, and there are only three materials in front of them, even the second-level middle-grade talisman masters in the foundation establishment period may not be able to pass safely.

  So this step requires both strength and luck.

   Keep the best hand feel.

   Then it will be successful.

  …

  Shen Ping has been making talisman seals for a month in a row. At this moment, when he was drawing the first spirit pattern, the habit that was so familiar that it was almost engraved in the muscles and blood came with the talisman pen.

  He has no distractions.

  There are only talisman seals in front of me.

this moment.

  He seems to have come to the scene where the golden light breaks through, standing in front of the jade table and making talisman seals day after day, regardless of success or failure, all that remains is the talisman seal.

   All the guests in the small courtyard left.

  But some of them didn't leave, and sat in the wing room to drink tea.

   "The last qualification examination was more than two hundred years ago."

   "It's a pity that even though that one got the qualification, he still failed!"

   "Special guest minister...Wei State, Jin State, Yue State and other 12 countries have stationed there, and there hasn't been one in the past thousand years. It's hard to get it!"

   "Yes, even this qualification is extremely difficult."

  Digital second-class guests talking to each other.

  They immediately looked at Shopkeeper Qu.

   Shopkeeper Qu shook his head and smiled, "Dear friends, don't look at me, I don't know if Keqing Shen can pass!"

   Someone couldn't help but said, "If it passes, shopkeeper Qu has made a good relationship in advance."

  The other guests laughed meaningfully.

   Shopkeeper Qu said, "It's just an acquaintance, tasting tea, tasting tea, I guess it will take a few days!"

   "I have nothing to do, just wait."

  …

  Inside the house.

  The beautiful woman standing behind Shen Ping was even more surprised in her eyes.

  She really didn't expect that the qi training talisman master in front of her could enter the state so quickly.

   When entering the house first.

  She naturally noticed that kind of gaze, even the gaze was very hot.

that moment.

  Meifu decided in her heart that the applicant this time would fail.

  But now there are only five spirit patterns left in the first Lightning Talisman.

  Especially the other party's control over the talisman is really strong. His talisman strokes never slowed down from the beginning to the end. Obviously, the applicant who made this lightning talisman has long been proficient in his heart.

   A moment.

  Shen Ping put away the talisman pen.

  The complex spirit pattern circuit of the Thunder Light Talisman flickered in an instant, and the special rune paper and blood ink reacted quickly and merged with the spirit pattern.

  The first one is successful!

"Congratulations!"

  When Shen Ping was taking the elixir.

  The beautiful woman said with a smile.

"Thanks."

   Shen Ping closed his eyes and replied.

   And the room on the right.

  After seeing the first Lei Guang Talisman was successfully written.

   There was finally a voice in the room.

"good."

   "Fair."

"good."

   Soon it was quiet again.

   After Shen Ping's spiritual power and spirit were completely recovered, he didn't rush to start writing, but instead stood up and walked around the room.

  The corner of the beautiful woman's lips smiled, she secretly felt nervous, but she soon noticed that the qi training talisman master's peripheral vision was once again aimed at her maroon dress, especially staying at the rounded outline for a few more times.

  She felt both funny and speechless in her heart.

  Just when he was about to speak to remind him to focus, the peripheral vision moved away.

soon.

  Shen Ping came to the jade table again and worked hard to make talismans.

  For the second material, he chose the armor talisman.

   Although made many times.

  The difficulty of the Armored Talisman is much higher than that of the Lightning Talisman, and the probability of failure is not low.

  However, without the slightest pressure, Shen Ping waved the talisman pen with ease, and quickly outlined the spirit pattern on the talisman paper.

  Time passed quietly.

  The second armor talisman was successfully made in one go!

  Inside the house on the right.

  The five Jindan real people showed a look of surprise one after another.

  The armor talisman was completed in one go.

   It is commendable!

"very good!"

"not bad."

   "The mind is fine."

   "It seems that the first step is no problem!"

"really."

   There were two more sentences in the room than the first time.

   Then it was quiet again.

  …

  In the wing room of the small courtyard.

  The waiting Ke Qing was still patient, and even their faces showed anticipation.

  Because the longer the time, the closer the person who is being assessed is to success.

  But none of them revealed anything.

   It's still early after all.

  …

  The third piece of Flame Falling Talisman is easier.

  Although Shen Ping didn't complete it in one go like the Armored Spirit Talisman again, it took nearly half less time than the Thunder Light Talisman.

   When the spirit pattern flickers and hides on the talisman paper for an instant.

  A beautiful woman's voice sounded, "Congratulations, Congratulations to Shen Keqing for passing the first step!"

   Shen Ping let out a long sigh of relief, turned around and saluted solemnly, "Thank you, senior!"

  The beautiful woman was stunned, and reminded with a dumb smile: "Mr. Shen, don't worry, first recover your spiritual energy, the second step is more difficult."

   Shen Ping nodded, quickly took the elixir and closed his eyes to meditate.

   This time, three full days have passed.

  He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the beautiful woman, "Senior, the second step can begin!"

  The beautiful woman showed a charming smile on her face, and she gently waved her palm.

  The jade table in the house disappeared.

   Immediately afterwards, another jade table was displayed.

   "Shen Keqing."

   "The second step requires you to make a special talisman."

   "It doesn't matter how many times you fail this time, as long as you succeed in the end."

  …

   Finally got on board! Two in one is not separated.
