When Hu Xiuwu mentioned this matter, Wang Kaixuan couldn't stop coughing and Hu Bayi also looked strange.
Hu Xiuwu:? ? ?
Finally, it was Hu Bayi who explained: "Mr. Liao had considered this originally, but then the people in the bunker discovered that the two of us were destined to be in trouble."
"Stormy fate" is a special fate. People with this fate can predict the development of things in a certain field, and it is not controlled by the will of the target person.
Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi went to the Jin Dynasty general's tomb in Niuxin Mountain, but the general's tomb was burned down; they went to the ancient city of Jingjue, but the ancient city was buried by yellow sand; they went to the Fishbone Temple, but the ghost tomb had disappeared completely.
Finally, I went to the tomb of King Xian with Liao Zhong.
My goodness, this time it’s even more outrageous, the entire Underworld Palace along with the cold pool at the bottom of the valley were swallowed up by King Xian. Not to mention the mausoleum, not even a piece of bluestone was left.
Not all mausoleums need to be destroyed. They are treasures left by the ancients and are of great research value.
So after much consideration, the company decided not to let Hu Bayi do his old job.
Wang Kaixuan said depressedly, "If Mr. Liao hadn't said it so confidently, I really wouldn't believe that there is such a fate. It's just a coincidence that Lao Hu and I met."
Hu Xiuwu grinned. Hu Bayi felt a little unhappy when he saw his brother's happy look, so he poured a basin of cold water on him:
"Don't be happy too soon. The people in the bunker suspected that you might also be destined to be in trouble. It's just that you ran away too early and the bunker didn't have time to check you."
However, Hu Xiuwu didn't care about this matter. Unlike Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi, he didn't have much desire for funerary objects.
The time I went to the Fishbone Temple before, I was just curious about the thrilling adventure stories told by Hu Bayi.
As the three of them chatted and laughed, Hu Xiuwu thought of the story of the Gu-body Holy Child:
"By the way, how is that Gu boy?"
Thinking of Gu Tong's experience, Hu Bayi sighed:
"Gu Tong? I remember that before we left, the dark fort made new protective clothing for her, and then President Liao also tried to break the emotional barrier that the Medicine Fairy Society had set up for her."
"Now she is in the dark fort learning common sense and language,"
Hu Bayi seemed to remember something and said to Hu Xiuwu:
"By the way, her name is Chen Duo now."
(Logically speaking, since Chen Junyan is not in the bunker now, he shouldn’t be called Chen Duo, but it feels a little off if he isn’t called Chen Duo.)
Hearing that Chen Duo was doing well now, Hu Xiuwu felt relieved.
He knew that he and Chen Duo would not be able to see each other for a short time, and the bunker was not accessible to anyone, so he could only hope that Liao Zhong could take good care of her.
Hu Xiuwu looked up at Hu Bayi and said, "Brother, I will take you to see the Second Master tomorrow. The old man has wanted to meet you for a long time."
"Okay."
When Hu Bayi was a child, his grandfather Hu Guohua often told him the story of Mr. Hui Erye.
Hu Guohua always felt that although that period was decadent, it was the most carefree time in his life, so Hu Bayi had long wanted to meet his elder.
The next day, Wang Kaixuan was tidying up the room in the rental house. Hu Bayi and Hu Xiuwu returned to the room in the courtyard to pay a visit to Mr. Hui Er.
This was the first time that Hu Bayi met Hui Erye, but it was not the first time that Hui Erye met him. You should know that Hu Bayi was able to find the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" because of Hui Erye's secret help.
It was just that due to the rules of Na Tu Tong, he did not actually appear in front of Hu Bayi.
Seeing Hu Bayi and Hu Xiuwu bowing in front of him, Hui Erye couldn't stop smiling. Hu Bayi also felt that Hui Erye was very similar to his grandfather, which gave him a natural sense of closeness.
After the three of them enjoyed some family happiness, Master Hui started to talk about business. He told Hu Bayi that he wanted to take him in as his disciple and the current situation in the Northeast region, and asked him to think about it carefully.
Hu Bayi was naturally willing to become Mr. Hui'er's disciple, and he was never afraid of danger.
But now he no longer has the final say on matters concerning the Northeast region.
Mr. Hui Erye doesn't know that Hu Bayi has joined Nadutong, and Hu Xiuwu is not very clear about the situation.
Just like the knights who joined the Six Gates in ancient times, you can secretly help the sect you came from, but you can no longer help openly.
Once you enter the public sector, your actions no longer just represent yourself.
When he heard Hu Bayi say that he had joined Nadutong, Hui Erye was not angry. On the contrary, he stroked his beard and said to Hu Bayi with a smile:
"In that case, why don't you ask your boss if he will give you a day off?"
You can also casually sound out the company and see what Nadutong thinks about this matter.
Hu Bayi sighed: "I haven't even started working yet, and I'm already bothering my boss. I hope he's a magnanimous person and won't make things difficult for me in the future."
He took out a photo from his pocket. The photo showed a man who looked quite old and would be his future boss.
Liao Zhong was worried that Hu Bayi would not recognize his future superior and make a fool of himself, so he found a photo of the head of the North China region and gave it to him, and wrote his number on the back of the photo.
Hu Bayi used the phone that Shirley Yang Xin bought for him a while ago and dialed the number on the photo:
"Hello, is this General Manager Xu Xiang? I'm Xiao Hu, who will be joining the company soon... Yes, I have something to ask you, which is..."
"... This is how it is. Do you have any opinion?"
"Okay, I'll wait for your reply." Hu Bayi said to Mr. Hui Er, "The person on the phone said he would go and ask."
Hu Xiuwu casually glanced at the person in the photo, and this glance made his pupils shrink.
Because he knew the person in the photo. He was the person who last appeared in front of him and Zhang Huaiyi on the Baxian Mountain. The person next to him at that time was Feng Baobao, who had led Zhao Fangxu to come and test him.
So that's it. This person is called Xu Xiang. It turns out he is from the company. No wonder Zhao Fangxu is so familiar with Teacher Huaiyi's affairs.
Hu Xiuwu thought to himself.
Although he knew Xu Xiang's identity, Hu Xiuwu did not plan to find Xu Xiang to investigate the secret of the so-called Jiashen Rebellion.
With his current level of cultivation, he is not qualified to explore such a huge secret.
However, Zhao Fangxu had just warned him to keep the secret, so why did he arrange his elder brother to be with Xu Xiang?
In fact, this was not what Zhao Fangxu thought.
Hu Bayi has a special identity. His joining Nadutong and his position arrangement were all discussed by the company's board of directors.
He had kept Feng Baobao's affairs a secret from other directors, so after the others arranged for him to stay in Sijiu City, he had no excuse to send Hu Bayi away.
Finding a lame excuse to get Hu Bayi away would only attract other people's attention, so Zhao Fangxu could only let it go.
······
After waiting for a while, Xu Xiang called Hu Bayi back and told him that this was his personal matter and had nothing to do with the company. He then reminded him not to be late for work and hung up.
Neither did they say that Hu Bayi was allowed to go, but they also didn't stop him, which in itself showed their attitude.
It seems that only those few people from the shaman lineage were able to block the person holding the magic sword outside the pass. It should be that someone who is well-known in the Northeast region helped secretly. It seems that there are some hidden secrets that they don't know.
Mr. Hui thought for a while, then said to Hu Bayi:
"Since you have no objection, Xiao Bayi, I will accept you as my disciple today."
It was only when I wrote this chapter that I realized that Sijiu City belongs to East China, not Central China.
I originally wanted Hu Bayi to go to Huazhong to be with Ren Fei, but now there is no reason. I have to think about it carefully.
Chapter 65 Opening
Hu Bayi was a little surprised: "Now? No need to choose a good day."
"We Northeastern men don't have so many fussies. As long as both parties are happy with each other, that's all that matters. Xiu Wu is here today, so we can have him by our side to protect us."
Mr. Hui shook the hard beard on both sides of his cheeks:
"The normal contract between immortals and disciples is made when the disciples are young. It is really impossible for you to become a disciple at your age."
While muttering, Mr. Hui Er took out a red velvet sheet from the base of his own spirit tablet. Mr. Hui Er Ye was indeed a ruthless man, as he actually used his own spirit tablet to hide things.
The crumpled velvet sheet slowly unfolded and floated between Hu Bayi and Hui Erye.
Written on the sheet was Mr. Hui'er's name, as well as the rules for disciples who were to be spirit animals. The rules were very simple and similar to normal family rules, with an additional rule that allowed immortals to possess the body. There was also a blank space in the column for the disciple's name.
"This is a necessary form for a disciple to go out to perform rituals. It is a contract between the immortal and the disciple. Sign your name and you will officially become my disciple to perform rituals."
After hearing what Master Hui said, Hu Bayi was about to go out to find a pen, but Master Hui stopped him:
"Don't bother, just use your Qi to write."
Under the guidance of Master Hui Er, Hu Bayi clenched his sword fingers and solidified his own Qi at his fingertips. The dark blue Qi outlined Hu Bayi's name on the list.
After Hu Bayi signed his name, the entire velvet sheet spontaneously combusted without fire and turned into two red Qi, which entangled between Hui Erye and Hu Bayi like the aurora, and gradually sank into the bodies of the two.
The picture is beautiful, if one of the two parties is not a century-old gray mouse and the other is a middle-aged greasy single man.
The contract is signed, and the next step is to open the meeting.
Master Hui Er was in a good mood and laughed: "Haha, Xiuwu, you come and protect me and your brother."
Hu Xiuwu responded, and Mr. Hui Er directly rushed into Hu Bayi's body. Hu Bayi immediately fell into a state of meditation, lost consciousness, and his body went limp and was about to fall to the ground.
Hu Xiuwu, who was standing nearby, quickly supported Hu Bayi's body, helped him to the chair next to him, and stood guard over him.
······
On the other side, Master Hui grabbed Hu Bayi's soul and protected him as he forcibly entered the highest level of meditation, the state of pure mind and purity, and took his soul into the inner space.
When Hu Bayi opened his eyes again, he found himself floating in a void.
He was startled, waving his limbs in the air as if drowning, and yelling at the top of his lungs:
"Oh my god! Second Master! Xiu Wu! Where are you?"
"Stop howling, it's like crying at a funeral."
Hui Erye's voice came from the blind spot of Hu Bayi's sight. Hu Bayi flapped his body and turned his head towards Hui Erye's direction. This sight made him stunned.
Mr. Hui stood in the void with his hands behind his back, looking very serious. He had completely transformed into a human form, wearing a black long gown and a mandarin jacket, dressed like a scholar in the Republic of China.
Only the whiskers on his cheeks and his pair of red rat eyes could reveal his former appearance as the Gray Fairy.
Hu Bayi said in astonishment: "Second Master, how did you become like this? Where is this place?"
Mr. Hui Er first straightened Hu Bayi's body and pulled him to his side before answering his question calmly:
"This is your spiritual world, which warlocks call the Inner View."
"interior?"
Mr. Hui Er boasted about his own methods:
