"Brother, my name is Qin Xiao. How should I address you?" Qin Xiao took the initiative to introduce himself.
The man hesitated for a moment before saying, "Call me Xia Miao."
It could be seen that this man was not completely open with Qin Xiao. He was still a little wary. How should he put it? Perhaps it was a subconscious precaution.
This might have something to do with his experience. Most of the people who came here were suffering. They lived very difficult lives and wanted to seek help here.
These people had probably subconsciously formed a habit of being on guard against anyone.
"Are you all very wary of each other?" Qin Xiao asked again. Now that Xia Miao was the breakthrough, Qin Xiao had to think of a way to establish a certain level of trust with him first. Then, he could learn more about the situation from him so that he could make plans for the next step.
Although Xia Miao was still a little wary of him, he was still much better than the others.
With Qin Xiao's experience, Xia Miao could still be won over. This kind of person would subconsciously guard against anyone, but at the same time, they longed to be able to communicate with others and become friends with others.
This was because they did not have many friends to begin with. They lacked things in this aspect, so they naturally longed for it.
Xia Miao looked at Qin Xiao but did not answer. He frowned slightly as if he was in a dilemma.
It could be seen that he was struggling internally. On one hand, he might feel that Qin Xiao was a trustworthy person and that he might be able to communicate with him. But at the same time, something in the depths of his heart tugged at him as if it was possessed by some supernatural force.
"Don't be so nervous. We're just chatting casually. I'm new here and don't know anything, so I want to ask you for advice. "
"No matter what, it's a kind of fate to be able to gather here."
"If you really don't want to say it, then I won't force you. If you're willing, we can talk. Anyway, we have nothing to do. One more friend is one more guarantee, isn't it? Why do you have to keep people a thousand miles away? "
"We're all strangers who met by chance. At home, we rely on our parents. When we go out, we rely on our friends. Friends, don't we all go from strangers to acquaintances? "
Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Xia Miao finally relaxed a little. She was convinced.
Only then did he say, "Everyone is on guard against each other. Because there is a competitive relationship between us, everyone wants to be favored as soon as possible and leave this place to be personally taught by the Manor Lord, imparting immortal arts and cultivation methods to greatly improve our cultivation strength."
"Every three years, there will only be a single spot. Thus, it appears to be very precious, and the competition for it will naturally be very intense."
"I've been waiting here for five hundred years, and it hasn't been my turn yet. Some even waited for six or seven hundred years. "
"Everyone has been waiting for a long time, and they don't want any new people to come in. If there aren't any newcomers coming in, then even if we slowly line up, we will eventually get a spot. "
"But if there are constantly new people coming in to fill up the queue, who knows how long it will take. It's also because of this that everyone is hostile to the newcomers. "
"That's why everyone didn't like you when you came in just now."
Qin Xiao nodded. In fact, he had already thought of this.
Humans were just like that after all.
"I see that there are still one or two hundred people here. If we line up once every three years, then we will have to line up for at least five or six hundred years."
"The key is that there will be an endless stream of people joining in."
"Xia Miao, are all of us who have entered here fighting for the personal guidance of the Manor Lord, imparting immortal arts and cultivation methods to us?" Qin Xiao asked again.
Xia Miao nodded and said, "That's right. Otherwise, why are we here?"
"Didn't we come to Ju Shan Manor for this? Aren't you here for this? "
Qin Xiao smiled and immediately said, "Of course I'm here for this. It's just that because I have just arrived in Muta City, I know very little about the situation in Ju Shan Manor. You can say that I came to Ju Shan Manor in a daze."
"That's why I don't know much. I just wanted to ask you."
After hearing Qin Xiao's explanation, Xia Miao was relieved and did not pursue the matter. Instead, he said, "We are all born lowly. The path of cultivation is extremely dangerous and difficult. We have to go through many trials and tribulations."
"It's already very difficult to survive. It's something to be thankful for."
"But the road ahead is still a vast expanse, and it is difficult to see."
"For us, if we don't have great luck on the path of cultivation and obtain immortal opportunities, then the possibility of us becoming stronger is infinitely close to zero."
"Ju Shan Manor is our benefactor on the path of cultivation. I heard that the Manor Lord is a very capable person and is extremely experienced. It seems that he is a third-step Celestial Venerable. "
"If we are lucky enough to receive guidance from the Manor Lord, then the benefits will naturally be endless."
Qin Xiao nodded with a relieved look on his face.
Xia Miao and the others' pursuit was indeed very simple. According to what he said, the Manor Lord was equivalent to teaching one person every three years.
Even if Manor Master Ju Shan was a third-step Heavenly Venerate, how much could he have taught him in three years?
What kind of immortal skills could he teach in three years?
However, to Xia Miao and the others, it was free anyway. Why not give it a try? Although the time was not long, they might still be able to obtain many benefits.
Moreover, it was said that the Manor Lord was a third-step Celestial Venerable. To be able to meet the Celestial Venerable and receive some guidance from him was something that they yearned for.
It was precisely because of this that Xia Miao and the others were rushing like ducks.
"Oh right, Xia Miao, how can we be chosen first? Is there some kind of test or something like that? "Qin Xiao asked again.
Xia Miao shook his head and said, "Actually, I don't know much about it either. It seems that there is always someone secretly monitoring our every move. Then, we will look at our overall performance. There is no test or anything like that. "
"One person will be chosen every three years. If there is really some kind of test, then I'm afraid that all of our time will be spent participating in the test."
"Some people also say that the Manor Lord will randomly choose people based on his preferences."
"There are many theories, but I'm not too sure about which one it is. Perhaps, it's more about luck. "
Qin Xiao pursed his lips and said, "If it is really about luck, then there is no need for everyone to be so hostile towards me, right?"
"If it is about luck, everyone's chances are equal."
Xia Miao shook his head and said, "You can't say it like that. If there is one more person, there will be one more person to share this opportunity. Then, everyone will naturally get less."
"Look, you are a newcomer, but your chances are the same as the others. Some people have waited for six or seven hundred years and have the same chances as you. How can they feel balanced? "
"If no one else joins, then everyone's chances will only increase."
"Haha, that's true." Qin Xiao pretended to smile. In fact, he naturally understood these problems. He just didn't want to appear too smart in front of Xia Miao.
He didn't want Xia Miao to be wary of him again.
After chatting with Xia Miao for a while and getting some information from him, Qin Xiao had a basic understanding of the situation here.
But if that was the case, then it wouldn't be so easy for him to be chosen.
If there was a test, then it would be easy. Qin Xiao was completely confident about this.
Without a test, it wouldn't be easy.
Therefore, Qin Xiao was also thinking about how to be chosen.
He chatted with Xia Miao for a long time about this problem. Xia Miao had been here for five hundred years and had gone through one or two hundred selections. There must be a reason why he was still left.
No matter how bad a person's luck was, it shouldn't be so bad.
Therefore, Qin Xiao also summed up some experience and used it to improve his chances.
The best case scenario was to be chosen in the next selection. If he listened to Xia Miao, there would be a new selection soon.
There wasn't much time left. How could he stand out now?
He still had to make some noise. Otherwise, if he just sat here, he would definitely be inconspicuous and wouldn't be able to do anything.
At this moment, an opportunity came knocking on his door.
The three men walked over in a group. The three of them stared at Qin Xiao with a sinister look in their eyes. Their faces were filled with ill intent.
There was also a strong sense of hostility in their eyes. There was even a hint of viciousness.
At one glance, it was obvious that the three of them were here for Qin Xiao. And they were very unfriendly. It was obvious that they were looking for trouble.
"Haha, it seems that God is really good to me. I was just looking for trouble and someone came knocking on my door. Well, it saves me a lot of trouble. That's pretty good. "Qin Xiao smiled in his heart and expressed a warm welcome to the three of them.
This was the perfect three-man team to send his head to.
Seeing the three of them coming over aggressively, the others also quickly gathered their gazes over. They looked over with interest and were waiting to see a good show.
Xia Miao was also frightened when he saw the three of them. His face turned pale.
Subconsciously, he wanted to distance himself from Qin Xiao to show that he wasn't in the same group as Qin Xiao.
However, his rationality held him back and he didn't retreat. Only his body was trembling slightly. It was obvious that Xia Miao was a little scared.
However, he didn't retreat. Perhaps it was because he was embarrassed, or perhaps it was because he was still holding on to something in his heart.
But what was the reason? At least he did it. This was something that was hard to come by.
Qin Xiao was still sitting there. He seemed to have turned a deaf ear to the three of them coming over aggressively. He didn't care at all.
In fact, he didn't even lift his eyelids. It was as if he had completely ignored the three of them.
Such disregard was obviously a great provocation to the three of them.
Such provocation naturally made the three of them very unhappy. The three of them were already very unhappy with Qin Xiao. That was why they wanted to come over and teach Qin Xiao a lesson so that they could vent their anger and anger.
However, they didn't expect Qin Xiao to actually dare to welcome them and provoke them in such an arrogant manner. He was simply too bold.
The man in black in the middle glared at Xia Miao and said coldly, "This has nothing to do with you. Why aren't you scramming to the side? Do you still want to stand up for this newcomer? "
Xia Miao was already very frightened. Now that he was directly reprimanded, his body trembled even more.
Subconsciously, he did want to retreat. However, there was always a force in his heart that was holding him back.
"Xia Miao, you can retreat to the side first. This has nothing to do with you. I will take care of it." Qin Xiao smiled faintly at Xia Miao and said.
