Ancient anecdotes and supernatural cases

Du Jie was surprised how long he had been asleep, and asked Meng Da in a surprised tone: "It's already over 300? Did you pass the exam in the afternoon?"

Meng Da nodded and said: "Yes, there are more examiners this afternoon. It seems that there are more examiners this year than last year, so we need to increase the speed of the examiners. Okay, let's not talk about it. I am No. 360 and I am going to take the exam. , Brother, you also work hard!"

Du Jie grabbed Meng Da's hand that was about to turn around, and Meng Da looked at his hand that was being held: "What are you going to do?"

Du Jie rolled his eyes, let go of Meng Da's hand, took out the cloth strip in his purse, showed it to Meng Da, and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm number 360 of [-], let's go! Let's go together."

Meng Da smiled happily: "Hey! It's a coincidence, it's a coincidence that we are next to each other, what a coincidence!" Du Jie glared at Meng Da: "Hurry up, everyone is lined up. Yes, you can laugh here, I will pass by."

As soon as Du Jie walked into the line, he found the fat white man behind him, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

The fat white man seemed to have known for a long time that Du Jie would be in front of him in the queue: "Nonsense, the cloth strips we three registered together are of course next to each other."

Du Jie looked at the fat white man's eyes, which were obviously hurt, and closed his mouth knowing that the fat white man hadn't defeated his companion in the end and hadn't grabbed his 250 number white.

Meng Da was the last one to stand in the line. As soon as the number of people arrived, everyone was ushered in. When Du Jie entered the gate of the monster town, Du Jie found that there were many strange words on the door frame, and then there was an endless corridor. , The pillars in the corridor were also engraved with strange talismans. After walking for more than ten minutes and turning a corner, everyone was brought to an open flat ground.

Du Jie saw that there were many weapons and wooden stakes for practice around him, and felt that it should be the place where the monster townspeople usually train. The 30 people were asked to stand in three teams of ten people each, and then three people wearing black robes appeared There was a person with gold edging on the cuffs but no dragon pattern, and then everyone around bowed their heads and shouted to the three of them in unison: "Hello, my lord!"

Du Jie reacted a little too late, and hurriedly imitated his example, bowed his head and called out to the lord. The three nodded and then each took ten people to start the exam. The content of the exam was nothing more than to show their abilities.

Du Jie rolled his eyes and listened to Meng Da, who was in line above him, who had been chanting non-stop since just now: "The heavens are spirited, the earth is spirited, the Supreme Lord bless me!"

The fat man behind said quietly through Du Jieji Mengda: "What kind of shit are you reading, you know it affects others!"

Meng Da was already very nervous because of the exam, so he didn't bother to answer the fat man at all. Instead, because someone in front of him played a very powerful swordsmanship, he turned around in shock and said to Du Jie: "Hey! It's too powerful, we are finished, we will definitely not be chosen."

Du Jie wanted to cover his face and stay away from Meng Da, pretending not to know him, because Meng Da's voice was not low, and the examiner even said once: "Go out if you two are muttering! No need to take the test!"

Meng Da quickly closed his mouth and didn't dare to speak anymore. Du Jie exhaled and he was relieved. Soon even Du Jie felt that he was really going to die, because there was a young man who was very good at Taoism in front of him. After the incomprehensible formulas, several yellow talismans flew into the sky, and even the examiner praised the young man: "The Taoist skills of the yellow talismans are not bad."

The young man smiled gently: "My lord, I'm overwhelmed." The young man's polite attitude made the examiner smile slowly. After being beaten by many people in front of him, he finally arrived at Meng Da in front of Du Jie.

Meng Da first chose the mahogany sword from several weapons, and then started a set of mediocre swordsmanship performances, and then Meng Da still raised the mahogany sword to the sky to let the mahogany sword hang in the air by itself, but the result may be due to nervousness The mahogany sword was thrown into the sky It fell down and landed on Meng Da's foot. Meng Da was in pain: "Hey, my feet are my feet." There was a burst of laughter from around.

Du Jie covered his eyes and really didn't know how to hold the mahogany sword for a while. After Meng Da finished the test, the examiner laughed, because when Meng Da put the mahogany sword, he fell and ate shit. Du Jie was holding the mahogany sword to show Master Huang While he was performing his sword skills, there were still people around who looked at him with worried eyes.

Du Jie's swordsmanship is also mediocre. After all, Master Huang's level is not as good as that of an expert. Then Du Jie also showed a formula that made the yellow talisman spontaneously ignite, but the yellow talisman did not spontaneously ignite after reading the formula for the first time. The second yellow talisman ignited spontaneously. There was no way for Du Jie to learn it for two months and still have more than one month to lay the foundation.

At the end of the exam, everyone still kept the formation that came in and went out, but the atmosphere was much more relaxed. Some of the more confident teenagers felt happier that they passed the exam, and some teenagers felt that they failed the exam. They were more disappointed, but everyone The hostility was gone and they started talking to each other, especially the people around the boy who let the yellow talisman fly up just now were talking to the boy, wanting to get acquainted with him.

The white and fat man standing in line behind Du Jie performed just a few times better than Du Jie in the exam, but he wasn't too good at it. Seeing the young man who made the yellow talisman fly up, people around him burst into cold sweat. Said to Du Jie: "Hmph! Putting on airs, isn't it because the family has the support of the imperial concubine and empress, and found an old Taoist with strong Taoism? If I have an old Taoist in my family, I can use Taoism better than him, hum!"

Du Jie looked at the fat white man differently and asked, "Is he with such a strong background?"

The fat white man snorted coldly: "Hmph! Is he a country bumpkin? You don't even know? He is so famous in Licheng. Isn't it that everyone has been spreading the word about Bai Yu recently? Does the eldest son of the Bai family have the demeanor of Fang Hao back then? Pooh! Is there a noble concubine as a backer!"

Du Jie sighed and said to the fat white man: "Why does the world rely on relationships to have a good future, hey!"

The fat white man looked full of question marks: "What world?"

Du Jie touched his nose in embarrassment: "Haha, it's okay."

When they arrived outside Zhenyaosi's mansion, everyone dispersed and rested elsewhere to wait for the announcement of the results. Meng Da took Du Jie to a restaurant not far away and went up to the second floor, where he could see the entrance of Zhenyaosi diagonally opposite to rest.

Zuo Qing held the paper with Du Jie's exam records on it, looked at Fang Hao who was sitting and reading with doubts, and asked, "Why did you let him join the town demon division with this level? Could it be that you really fell in love with him?" ?”

Fang Hao raised his head and glared at Zuo Qing and said, "Is this the kind of person I am in your heart?"

Zuo Qing smiled, and Fang Hao continued: "This eye called Du Jie is amazing, it can see things that our naked eyes can't see, and we will definitely use it in the future, but now he delivered it to the door by himself, why not?"

Zuo Qing still smiled and said, "Yes, you won't use power for personal gain just because you like it."

Fang Hao twitched his lips and put the book on the table: "What do you mean by that I used power for personal gain?"

Zuo Qing coughed lightly: "Don't dare, dare not."

Here Fang Hao and Zuo Qing have decided to let Du Jie enter the town demon division. Here Du Jie and Meng Da are in a depressed atmosphere in the restaurant. Meng Da complains to Du Jie while drinking tea and eating peanuts: "I'm nervous I can’t pass the exam today, hey! You too, our level is really far behind the other’s.”

Du Jie dragged his chin, looked out of the window, frowned, and replied: "Yes." He also thought that Master Huang said that his eyes are a talent, but how to show this talent, there is no such item.

The two of them spent the whole afternoon in this depressed atmosphere. Du Jie even thought up the excuse that he could not pass the exam and went home. After dark, the people from the demon town finally posted a When the name was selected, a crowd of people immediately surrounded it, because there were many people who took the exam, but there were only [-] people in the demon town, so most of them didn't pass the exam, and they all left in a depressed mood, and some sent servants I came to see it, and the servants ran home directly after watching it. It was not until half an hour after the announcement that there was an exclamation: "Hahahahaha, I, I entered, I entered the demon town." Those who did not enter All the teenagers congratulated each other.

Both Du Jie and Meng Da thought that they would not be able to enter the demon town, so there were fewer people, so they came out of the restaurant to check at the announcement. When both Du Jie and Meng Da saw Du Jie's name at the No. 80 place, the two Renjin was surprised.

Meng Da walked around Du Jie wonderingly and said, "I don't remember a big family named Du? What's your background?"

Du Jie scratched the back of his head and said in puzzlement, "Don't look at me like that! I'm also very puzzled? I actually joined the demon town."

Meng Da sighed and drooped his head: "Why did you get in? I didn't get in, hey! My father is urging me to join the army again when I go back."

Du Jie was surprised and asked: "Join the army? Your father wants you to join the army, so go."

Meng Da looked up at Du Jie firmly and said, "You don't understand, it's my dream to enter the town of demons and exorcise ghosts and goblins, hey! It's a pity that my talent is too bad! I won't be able to enter the town of demons after all."

Du Jie patted the depressed Meng Da: "Didn't I enter! I fulfilled your dream for you, and I will share your share."

Meng Da smiled with a very moved look: "Yeah."

Du Jie saw that it was getting late and it was getting darker: "Okay, let's go home, it's already so late."

Meng Da wiped his moist eyes and said to Du Jie, "Would you like to stay at my house tonight?"

Du Jie was stunned for a moment and said embarrassedly: "Is this okay?"

Meng Da generously put his arms around Du Jie's shoulders: "It's okay, let's go!" The two walked away talking and laughing, Fang Hao stepped out from the gate of the Demon Town, and looked at the backs of Du Jie and Meng Da, frowning .

After Du Jie followed Meng Da back home, he found out that Meng Da was the son of Meng Chao, the great general of the court. There were twelve sons in Meng Chao's family, and Meng Da was the ninth son. Does anyone in his family care about his test of being a demon in the town? Du Jie's family felt Meng Da's loss and comforted the lost Meng Da.

On the second day, Du Jie took some time to say goodbye to the reluctant Meng Da and returned to the village. Du Da and Master Huang were the first to greet him at the entrance of the village. Master Huang excitedly asked Du Jie who had just got off the ox cart : "How is it? Have you entered the demon town?"

Du Jie said happily: "Go in."

Both Master Huang and Du Da looked too surprised, and Du Da laughed happily: "Hahaha, really?"

After Du Jie explained that he didn't know why he entered, Master Huang patiently persuaded him: "Don't think too much about it, just go in, it's an honor to honor your ancestors."

After returning to Du's house, Du Juan found out that Du Jie, who had decided not to pass the exam, had passed the exam. Angrily, she cursed and questioned Shen's intentional saying that Du Jie would not pass the exam, so that she would not be allowed to take the exam, so that she could save her money from childhood to adulthood. Five taels of silver was used as tuition for his younger brother's private school, which delayed her admission to the Zhenyaosi. Shen was also very surprised in her heart, and felt that she didn't even know Du Jie anymore. Du Juan and Shen even had a fight because of this incident.

In the end, Du Juan lost and cried very miserably. Master Huang had already taken Du Jie to his house. Du Da also took the prepared firecrackers to Master Huang's house. Du Da set off firecrackers at Master Huang's house. People came to ask why they were shocked, and they all congratulated Du Jie on entering the Town Demon Division.

In the evening, the village head and Li Zheng also came to Master Huang's house, holding the gifts from everyone, and the two of them came here so lively that everyone in the village changed their attitudes, and even set Du Jie as an example for the children For example, he said that if he worked hard, he could be admitted to the town demon division like Du Jie of the Du family. Du Da even went to the Du family's ancestral grave for two consecutive days to cry and pay respects.

Two days later, Du Jie got on the bullock cart with the packed baggage and rushed to Licheng. When he arrived at the gate of Zhenyaosi, more than a dozen teenagers had already assembled, and they were all waiting for the other teenagers who had not yet arrived at the gate of Zhenyaosi. Every teenager is tall, handsome and energetic.

Du Jie found that some teenagers seemed to know each other and chatted together. These teenagers who chatted together were wearing better clothes and the fabrics were different from his. Du Jie wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a sip from the bamboo tube Deshui observed the surrounding scenery and found that the circle of officers and soldiers surrounding the demon town had withdrawn last time, and the passers-by, all the young people, looked at them with envy. Du Jie once again sighed in his heart that he didn't know What kind of luck did you have to get into the demon town.

When the sun rose a little higher, all the teenagers gathered at the gate of the demon town had arrived, and it was time to assemble. From the mansion of the town demon, four officials of the town demon, wearing black robes with gold borders on the cuffs, walked out and directed everyone to divide into four groups. Teams, 20 people in each team follow one of the four.

The teenagers started to line up chaotically. Those who knew each other wanted to line up with those they knew. The scene became chaotic. The four town demon officials stood at the front and watched without interfering, waiting for Du Jie to stand in a daze in the chaos. When the opponents stood up, everyone also stood up as four teams and the scene restored order.

Not long after entering the town demon division, Du Jie heard bursts of roars of martial arts training coming from nowhere. It was so neat and passionate, which made the teenagers motivated when they heard it. After walking for a long time, the eyes of the teenagers also Started whoring, looking left and right, everyone was curious.

It took more than 20 minutes to walk alone. During this period, the four teams of teenagers all left separately. Now Du Jie and his team are only 20 people walking with a town demon official, and they are brought into five connected tiles. The room stopped and said: "Okay, today is your first day in the demon town, pack your bags first, I will gather you tomorrow morning, as for the allocation of beds, you can allocate them yourself." gone.

The stunned teenagers were left behind, you looked at me, I looked at you, everyone remained silent for 3 minutes, and then a gorgeously dressed teenager stood up with his hands together and said: "Hello everyone, I am the son of Li Shangshu, Li Shangshu. Ma Ping, just now that senior also said that we need to allocate beds ourselves, since this is the case, I will enter the room without hesitation."
