Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

Chapter 14 How to Make a Good First Impression
There was a little chaos in the inner courtyard of Shi Mansion.

By the time Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen hurriedly wiped away the nosebleeds on the ground, it seemed like a long time had passed, but in fact the stew in the three bowls was still hot, and the fire talisman under the cooking pot had only curled up a corner.

Shi Yue said with some embarrassment: "Well, Lord Mountain Master, can you please put on your clothes."

Wang Luo glanced at Shi Yue and saw that the other person really had no sympathy for his flawless body. He could only shake his head regretfully and said: "You have a good talent, but it is a pity that it is not allocated at all to physical training."

Shi Yue said: "It's okay if you don't have an assignment, at least I won't have a nosebleed just by looking at you..."

Wang Luo said: "A nosebleed requires at least three months of hard training. I don't know how many people were willing to bleed for it."

Shi Yue curled his lips, finding it hard to believe this kind of historical passage that was comparable to street stall literature.

But soon, she was stunned to see that the skin of Zhao Xiuwen next to her had a strange luster. The originally dark skin color faded at an alarming speed until it was light brown.

"you……"

Zhao Xiuwen nodded: "Well, the Ningyu body has been reduced in size, and the skin has also been purified... It was originally expected to take another three months of hard training."

"Fuck!"

Shi Yue was really convinced now, and his eyes when he looked at Wang Luo were particularly different.

However, Wang Luo had already put on Yunshang's plain clothes again and said: "There is a reliable communication language among body practitioners. As long as you look at a person's skin, bones, fascia, qi and blood, you can roughly know who the other person is. What kind of person is that, and whether he can be trusted.”

Zhao Xiuwen was silent for a moment and said: "Yes, I subconsciously felt friendly when I saw you, and what I saw with my naked eyes just now is even more like a fairy!"

Shi Yue couldn't help but interrupt: "Is it an exaggeration?"

Zhao Xiuwen and Wang Luo looked at her at the same time, their gazes as if they were admiring inferior creatures, which made her immediately angry: "Okay, okay, it's because I'm dull and can't understand the aesthetics of you guys! But you just because of his looks?" Just because he looks good, do you believe that he is the resurrected Lord of Lingshan?"

Wang Luo said: "If he can believe in the marriage we made a hundred years ago, he can certainly believe that I am the owner of Lingshan Mountain. Some people are born with quick thinking and are not limited by common sense; besides, he should only believe more than half of it now, and You’re almost there.”

The second half of the sentence left Shi Yue speechless.

Yes, until now, her trust in Wang Luo is not 100%.

This is clearly shown on the Ascension Record, with a loyalty score of 79/100. Li Ji’s roasted pork meal increased by 20 points, but it was still far from the full value.

But Wang Luo is not demanding, because even if he reaches full loyalty at this time, it will only make this young girl's attitude more submissive and more like a subordinate.But Wang Luo never cared about these false etiquette.

As for gaining Zhao Xiuwen's trust, half of it was done casually. After all, we all live next to each other, and having more trust is not a bad thing.The other half is that just as Zhao Xiuwen likes him, Wang Luo also has some praise for the young man with excellent physical fitness.

Very suitable for income outside the mountain gate.

Looking at the empty page of the Outer Mountain Gate in the Ascension Record, Wang Luo had already labeled Zhao Xiuwen as the Outer Mountain Gate in advance.

After a brief interlude, the late-night meal became particularly lively.

Regarding Wang Luo, Zhao Xiuwen had countless questions, and Shi Yue also took the opportunity to ask questions that he had not asked clearly before.

Of course, compared to the two of them, Wang Luo actually had more questions in his mind, but he was quite restrained and was not in a hurry to ask questions. Instead, he chewed the answers to each question carefully and digested them clearly.

For Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen, the 84th generation mountain master of Lingshan is like a sudden splendor in their lives. They can be curious and worth studying, and may be able to change their future, but that's all.

But for Wang Luo, this new world is his present and his future.

-

After finishing a late-night snack, it was already dark, so it took five or six hours to eat.

The big cooking pot was divided among three people as early as the first hour, and not even the soup base was left. Zhao Xiuwen temporarily found ten kilograms of dry fried noodles and threw them into the pot. After sucking up the soup, he fished them all out. .For the rest of the time, the three of them just talked endlessly over the large pot of water that Zhao Xiuwen brought.

By the time the sky got brighter, both Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen were already looking tired. Although both of them had great foundation-building skills and were well-balanced internally and externally, logically speaking, even if they stayed up for more than a dozen all-nighters, they should treat it as nothing.

But the problem is that these two people have been working overtime for a long time before eating midnight snacks...

In the end, it was Zhao Xiuwen who was the first to call a stop with an apologetic look on his face.

"I'm sorry, you two. Although I still have a lot to say, if I don't take a nap, the cram school in the morning will be wasted."

Shi Yue also nodded: "It's time for me to go to the Cultural Tourism Department to take orders. It would be great if I could have a part-time job as a tour guide like Ningyuan Pavilion Museum."

Wang Luo said: "Then I will go to Qingping Division to get myself an identity certificate."

Shi Yue was a little worried: "You really don't need me to follow you?"

Wang Luo waved his hand: "You have work to do, so concentrate on your work. I want to live in this new immortal calendar era, and I can't rely on the mountain protector for everything."

After saying that, Wang Luo stood up first and left the inner courtyard.

When he came to the door, Shi Yue chased after him and gave Wang Luo a handful of small leaves as clear as emeralds.

These spiritual leaves are the currency currently circulating in the [Wish Hope] country and even the hundreds of countries of the Immortal Alliance. They are similar to the spiritual stones in the old immortal calendar era. However, the spiritual leaves do not contain spiritual power, but their own natural energy. I wish you all the best in the many anti-counterfeiting and circulation mechanisms designed by the highest authority [Jinlu Hall].

There were not many spiritual leaves, but it was obviously Shi Yueqing's best effort, so Wang Luo accepted them politely, and then used his spiritual mind to take the spiritual leaves into his body.

In this way, at least you can go to Stone Street to have breakfast before going to Qingpingsi.

-

In the morning, Stone Street is far less lively than at night. Only half of the shops on the long street are open, but the aroma of various specialties still fills the street.Wang Luo followed his intuition and found a prosperous bun shop. He bought a drawer of buns and a bowl of fried liver with the spirit leaves in his hand. He ate them leisurely despite the noise of the diners around him, and then turned to this place. Walk to your destination.

Qingpingsi, Xiaobailou.

To be precise, it is Qingping Sirong City Stone Street Office.

As an agency in charge of public security, Qingping Division has set up more than 100 offices in Rongcheng. Each office has several small stations. There are more than 2000 Qingping small stations in total, as well as the supervisors who work hard in them. One hundred thousand unofficial officials were like a dense net, covering the entire city.

What Wang Luo wanted to visit was the node in charge of Stone Street.

The small white building on Stone Street is very eye-catching. Among the low buildings on Stone Street, the five-story building stands out like a flock of chickens. Its snow-white walls and golden eaves make it even more noble.

In fact, Qingpingsi's Xiaobailou is indeed extraordinary. According to Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen, there is no official organization in Shijie that has more real power than Xiaobailou.

In the prosperous Shangcheng District, the Department of Culture and Tourism, the Department of Engineering and Construction, and even the Breeding Department can often steal the limelight from Qingpingsi, but in a lower-level world where even late-night snacks are regulated, Qingpingsi is the protagonist.

The stone street occupies a small area, and the main area is located at the lower part of the three-dimensional structure of Rongcheng. It is a literal underground world.But this underground world houses nearly a million people.

And that five-story building that stands out from the crowd is the manager of these millions of people.

When Wang Luo arrived, there was already a lot of traffic in front of the building, and a relatively spacious street was crowded with all kinds of stone street people.So much so that the Tsing Yi workers who work here often have to fly in the air and enter directly from the entrances on the second and third floors.

The busy scene in front of us is the daily life of Xiaobailou.As the manager of millions of people, Qingpingsi naturally has to respond to the daily needs of millions of people. In addition to basic public security issues, such as neighborhood frictions, business disputes, etc., Qingpingsi has to decide, although most issues can be resolved If it is handled at Qingping Station, but it exceeds the authority of the station, such as applying for identity authentication for a person who has no origin at all, then you can only come to Xiaobailou.

Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen had explained the detailed process. Wang Luo followed the explanation and first found a self-service wooden stand in a crowd gathering place in the small courtyard outside the building. He put his hand on the stand and pressed his palm A translucent number appeared on the screen, which was his service serial number, 97.

After that, it’s just a matter of waiting patiently for the numbers in your hands to change color.

The work efficiency of Xiaobailou on Shijie was quite high. After waiting for about an hour, Wang Luo felt a slight heat in his palm. The translucent No. 97 bloomed with milky white light, then jumped out from his palm and floated to the front to lead the way.

Following the guidance of the numbers, Wang Luo walked all the way into the small building. The moment he passed the door, the space in front of him suddenly expanded, revealing a service hall that was much wider than it looked from the outside.At the same time, an invisible pressure is like an enlightenment, making people feel as if they are under an extremely majestic will, and no matter how many thoughts and distractions they have, they must be restrained.

Many Shijie people who were clamoring for justice outside the building immediately lowered their voices after entering the small building, and even arched their backs, making them feel a little shorter.

Wang Luo was not affected at all. Instead, he followed the path of this invisible pressure and traced it back to its source with his spiritual thoughts. After a while, he became thoughtful.

While he was thinking, the number 97 in front of him led him to a service window. Behind a brown desk, he saw a young woman in white sitting. She raised her head and glanced at Wang Luo, revealing a smile. Zhang's face, which was still not very beautiful even though she had put on light makeup, asked in a low and impatient voice: "What are you here to do?"

Wang Luo said: "Applying for identity certificate is the seed of building wood."

The woman obviously clicked her tongue and said, "Then this window is fine. What's your situation? Did you lose the Jianmu Seed?"

For people in the new era, the Jianmu Seed as a proof of identity is basically forcibly implanted in the body by the Great Law at the moment of birth. It stands to reason that as long as the person is still alive, the Jianmu Seed will definitely be there.Even after death, it can be extracted from the body.

But in reality, the Jianmu Seed is not absolutely stable, and many accidents can cause it to be lost, such as accidentally going crazy while practicing certain exercises, or a tuner accidentally dialing the wrong number when adjusting the Great Law. Rhythm...

In short, for Qingpingsi, re-issuing people's identity certificates is considered a daily business, especially in a place like Shijie where there is a mixed bag of good and bad, and the law is relatively weak, there is always an endless stream of people who have "lost" Jianmu's seeds. .

But Wang Luo's situation is different.

"It's not lost. I don't have any Jianmu seeds at all. I need Qingpingsi to implant a new one for me."

The woman in white raised her eyelids again and looked at Wang Luo with some uncertainty: "You don't have the seed to build wood, what's wrong with you!?"

Of course, a person who lived a thousand years ago would not have proof of identity a thousand years later...but these words cannot be said.

Wang Luo's true identity can be revealed to Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen, but it is obviously not convenient to reveal it to Qingpingsi.

Therefore, let’s follow the rhetoric devised by Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen.
"I come from the great wilderness of Nanxiang and have never been exposed to the Great Law. Last year, my family's settlement was invaded by the wilderness demon, and I was the only one left alive. Fortunately, I was saved by a hunter from Rong City. He told me some The story of Rongcheng fascinates me. At the same time, I thought that it would be increasingly difficult for a person to survive alone in Nanxiang, so I walked all the way to Rongcheng."

The woman in white blinked her eyes and looked at Wang Luo with an expression that said, "Do you think I'm mentally retarded?"

In fact, objectively speaking, the story made up by the late-night snack duo is completely reasonable.

Thousands of years ago, the catastrophe came, and the heaven fell, directly smashing the Kyushu continent. With Lingshan as the central axis, the four western states were reduced to a deserted area. So far, they are like a group of demons dancing in chaos. This is all because the countries bordering the deserted area have set up great barriers to determine the wilderness. This ensures the safety of the civilized world.

As for Nanxiang, it is on the border between [Wish Hope] and the wilderness area. The barrier effect is the weakest and the Great Law is relatively the most chaotic.There are more than 500 million people living there, and hundreds of thousands of them have simply settled in the wilderness full of wild beasts in order to collect all kinds of natural materials and treasures that can only be found in the wilderness.Those people who live in the wilderness will naturally thrive, but those newborns will not have the identity of the civilized world.

Although under normal circumstances, people who settled in the deserted areas did not often leave Nanxiang. Some were not accustomed to the taste of civilization, and of course, most of them did not survive to leave at all.But if there are really people who are tired of the chaos and disorder in Nanxiang and want to join the embrace of the civilized world... then from a humane perspective or based on existing legal principles, these people should be accepted by civilization.

In fact, Zhuwang's Qingpingsi provides identity authentication to many wanderers from Nanxiang every year, provides them with accommodation, trains them in work skills, and promotes it as a good talk.

Shi Yue and Zhao Xiuwen also referred to a large number of on-site cases to design such a clichéd story for Wang Luo.

But obviously, this story failed to impress the woman in white in the small white building.

Wang Luo didn't know what the problem was. Maybe the story was too stitched together, or maybe Wang Luo's temperament was too different from those of the wanderers in Nanxiang... But no matter what, he at least knew how to solve the problem.

Faced with the question from the woman in white, Wang Luo smiled and asked, "You have a good talent in physical training."

"what?"

The next moment, Wang Luo reached out and pulled open his clothes a little, exposing his collarbone.

The woman in white was startled, and her cold eyes softened at an alarming speed.
