Listening to Gossip
Mist was also a little beauty with big eyes similar to Dream. However, without her long eyelashes, her facial features were beautiful and her skin was fair with a hint of red.
She was really embarrassed now. After she came out, she bought a lot of things, most of which were paid for by her grandfather. However, from the beginning to the end, she had paid for the spirit stones herself. She did not buy many things.
Zhi Meng was very smart. She immediately saw through Zhi Lan's thoughts. She usually didn't explain much. Perhaps she was in a good mood today, so she comforted Mist.
"Mist, you don't have to think too much. Just don't be targeted when you're out.”Dream's words made Mist feel even more embarrassed.
She continued," I'll be careful. Thank you for your dream!”
Although Zhimeng was older than her by more than three months, the two of them had grown up together. She had never called Zhimeng big sister and had always called her by her name.
Dream patted Mist's shoulder. Mist was a little taller than her, but it was not a problem for her to pat her shoulder. After that, Dream stopped talking. Today was also the day she spoke the most since she came out.
It seemed that traveling could open one's heart. After that, she didn't say anything else and continued her treasure-hunting journey.
They didn't buy anything that day. They also observed the people who set up stalls today and yesterday. Most of them were the same as yesterday. There were no new items at the stall where Mist had bought things.
This was a little boring. After strolling for only half a day, the two girls were already yawning out of boredom. Dream felt that it was a waste of time to continue shopping here. First, she suggested going back. Mist's patience had run out, and he turned around and left.
Meng Zikun had been following his granddaughters 'arrangements for the past few days. He followed his two granddaughters back to the inn. After returning home, she rested for a while. Zhi Lan was full of health again, so she suggested that they go to a restaurant for a meal.
Then, the two of them went to find their grandfather and went to the most famous restaurant here for dinner. After the old man left, he had always cherished the time he had with his granddaughters. After entering the restaurant with his granddaughters, he did not ask for a private room.
Instead, he chose to sit in a corner of the hall. His two granddaughters were a little puzzled. They used gold and silver to settle their bills here. Their family did not care about gold and silver at all, so there was no need to save money.
Meng Zikun didn't say much. He raised his hand and gestured for the two of them to sit down. After sitting down, the waiter brought the menu over. Meng Zikun waved his hand and said to the waiter," Just serve a few of your signature dishes!”
The waiter readily agreed and ran to the kitchen!
The three of them sat there drinking tea and waiting for the dishes to be served. At this moment, voices came from the hall. There was a table not far from them, and four people were sitting around it.
One of them spoke the loudest." I heard that the righteous sects are about to open their mountains to accept disciples!”The person beside him snorted and said," Every ten years, the mountain opens to accept disciples. Who doesn't know about it? I've even heard of it.”
"Sigh, how can you say that! Who usually has the time to pay attention to this?" The first person who spoke hurriedly replied.
"What have you been busy with all day? The number of people on this road has obviously increased over the past few days.”His companion, who had just spoken in a rude manner, hurriedly tried to remedy the situation.
"It's true. Business has been better than usual these few days. So that's why.”The young man who spoke first came to a realization.
Then, he said a little sadly," How many disciples can we take in at once? Not to mention that his age was stuck. Even though there were as many people who signed up as there were hairs on an ox, the number of people accepted was only a dozen or twenty.”
"It's already good enough to collect one out of thousands to ten thousand people!”the man added.
When Mist heard this, she was stunned. Even Dream was stunned. After a while, the two of them looked at their grandfather. Meng Zikun nodded and said softly," This person's words are not exaggerated at all. It's already good enough if there's even one person in the Meng family who can enter the sect in a few generations!”
Meng Zikun had no other choice. To enter the sect, one needed to have a good aptitude for spirit roots, but this was exactly what the Meng family lacked. Occasionally, those who entered the sect were accepted because they had a particularly good temperament.
Only one in ten generations could have a talent like Zhi Lan with two spiritual roots, and they were all women. The curse was especially effective on the men of the Meng family. Among the generations of descendants of the Meng family, there had never been a man with two spiritual roots.
He and Meng Zhimeng's father had the best aptitude in the history of the Meng family.
After getting an affirmative answer from her grandfather, Zhi Lan was a little distracted. Zhimeng felt a chill from the bottom of her heart. Wouldn't it be very difficult for her to enter the sect with her talent! Then what should he do?
At this moment, the young man continued," When I was eleven, my parents brought me to participate in the sect's assessment. I didn't even pass the first round before I was eliminated.”
The other three people at the same table as him came over and said," Then tell us about it! We've never been there before. I heard that it was huge and crowded. What happened after that?”
"What else can I do? I had the most people participate that time. It was the large sect closest to us, the Green Lotus Sect! That time, there were two to three hundred thousand people, but only nineteen disciples were accepted.”
Dream was stunned once again. If she chose one out of tens of thousands of people, she would have no chance at all!
The young man who spoke sighed and did not continue the topic. This was not something to be proud of, and there was nothing to show off.
