The small wooden house in Xingxing Cliff in the Immortal Mansion has the effect of storing spiritual objects and will last forever. Ye Ling has stored these top-quality spiritual herbs so that they will not wither. When you need to use them, you can take them out as if they were just picked from the spiritual field. Just as fresh.
After everything was stored, Ye Ling's mind exited the Xianfu Jade Pendant.
At this time, dawn broke in the east and the sky was dim. Ye Ling looked around at the Nangu Medicine Garden and saw that most of the area had not been harvested, so he had to wait until night!
Ye Ling returned to Nangu Bamboo House. This place was located in the spiritual veins and had abundant spiritual energy, even richer than the spiritual energy in his cave!
This is because most of the sect's spiritual fields and medicine gardens are opened on spiritual veins. Otherwise, the field power is insufficient to cultivate many spiritual herbs.
In addition, there are endless spiritual herbs planted in the medicine garden, emitting all kinds of spiritual energy, which makes Ye Ling feel relaxed and happy. It is indeed a good place for cultivation!
Ye Ling sat cross-legged and meditated, swallowed a Ruyi Zhuanshen Pill, and practiced daily. The pill tempered the body, strengthened the body, and at the same time slowly restored the mind.
It was still dark, and Sun Erhu followed Ye Ling's instructions yesterday and brought ten outer disciples early to serve Senior Brother Ye.
Sun Erhu walked in front and saw Ye Ling concentrating on practicing in the bamboo house from a distance.
He quickly waved his hand to stop the ten outer disciples behind him, and lowered his voice and said: "Senior Brother Ye is the direct disciple of the sect master, and his status is extraordinary! You and I must not disturb Senior Brother Ye's meditation. We will just wait quietly."
The ten newly selected outer disciples quickly nodded in agreement and stood by the roadside, respectfully waiting for Senior Brother Ye to speak.
After all, Ye Ling is a monk in the middle stage of Qi training, and his consciousness and senses are much stronger than them! He had already sensed the arrival of these people. Ye Ling opened his eyes like cold stars and glanced at these people coldly. Seeing that they were all newly acquired outer disciples of the first and second levels of qi training, and none of them were familiar faces, Ye Ling nodded with satisfaction.
Sun Erhu was very discerning, so he trotted over, respectfully bowed his fists to Senior Brother Ye, and reported: "Reporting to Senior Brother Ye, I have fulfilled my mission and went to the Outer Deacon Hall early in the morning to select ten hard-working people. Hard-working outer disciples, please take a look at them, Senior Brother Ye! See if they are suitable? If Senior Brother Ye is not satisfied, my subordinates can change them at any time."
Ye Ling's original intention was to get strangers in exchange, and he didn't care about their hard work or clumsiness. He nodded and said: "Well, I think you are quite pleasing to the eye, so be it!"
The new outer disciples were overjoyed. Working in the Nangu Medicine Garden, they could earn several times as much spiritual stone as other places! Everyone looked at Senior Brother Ye with eager eyes. The Senior Brother who was once the top leader in the outer sect competition was now becoming taller and taller in their eyes.
Sun Erhu signaled: "Why don't you thank Senior Brother Ye quickly!"
"Thank you, Senior Brother Ye, for taking me in!"
"I will work hard to take good care of the sect master's medicine garden and ensure that Senior Brother Ye is satisfied."
"Yes! Whatever assignments Senior Brother Ye will have from now on, no matter what the wind or rain, there will never be a single complaint!"
Ye Ling stopped them and said calmly: "Okay! You ten will have to work hard with Senior Brother Sun Erhu from now on. Water when it's time to water, weed when it's time to hoe, and cut and clean up those dead branches and leaves at any time. Lose."
Having said this, Ye Ling curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled secretly in his heart. According to the usual practice, there is no need to clean up dead branches and leaves. This is a rule set by him! The purpose is to make everyone confused about who cleans the spiritual herbs in the medicine garden!
Ye Ling then said: "During this month, Nangu Bamboo House will be my place of meditation. No one is allowed to disturb my meditation without my instructions, do you understand?"
"clear!"
"We will obey Senior Brother Ye's orders!"
Sun Erhu also nodded and bowed and said with an apologetic smile: "I will bear this in mind! Please listen carefully. The Nangu Bamboo House is divided into forbidden areas. No one can step in without Senior Brother Ye's summons!"
Ye Ling ordered Sun Erhu to assign them to work in various spiritual fields, and then left him alone and asked: "When you went to the outer deacon hall, did you see Li Bao, the outer deacon's chief disciple?"
Since the Outer Disciple Competition, Ye Ling has not only studied the herbal illustrations and practiced in seclusion, but also went to the depths of the Changxi wilderness to practice. He has not seen Li Bao for a few days. Of course, in Ye Ling's view, no news is good news. Li Bao did not take the initiative to come to him, which meant that the old fox, Zhou Chong, the elder of the Foundation Establishment, did not dare to act rashly against him.
Sun Erhu is a natural gab and loves to inquire about gossip so that he can show off in front of everyone. Now Senior Brother Ye asked about it, it was the use of his expertise that gave him a good opportunity to show off. Sun Erhu hurriedly said: "Senior Brother Ye, don't you know yet? Li Bao has stopped taking care of the outer sect for a long time! Since the time when the outer sect was in charge Comparatively, Li Bao was defeated by Senior Brother Ye, and was later accepted as a direct disciple by Elder Zhou. Hehe, he has a bright future!"
"Elder Zhou? Is this Master Zhou Chong?" Ye Linghan's star-like eyes flashed with coldness, and then it passed away. Sun Erhu did not notice it, but instead respectfully called Master Zhou Chong. .
Sun Erhu said sourly: "It's not who he is! I heard that Elder Zhou has promised Li Bao that as long as Li Bao reaches the late stage of Qi training, he will recommend him to the Tiandan Immortal Sect! Brother Ye, think about it, what a blessing this is! We Yaogu Sect disciples can only have the opportunity to join the Immortal Sect after we hope to establish a foundation in this life. Li Bao is lucky to have a good backer, because Elder Zhou turned out to be a second-generation disciple of the Immortal Sect and a member of the sect. After serving as an elder in our Yaogu Sect for a few years, it became much easier for Li Bao to join the Immortal Sect."
Ye Ling's expression became solemn. He was not jealous that Li Bao had such a good fortune, but he was trying to figure out the deep meaning of Zhou Chong, an old fox, who vigorously supported Li Bao!
"Why is this old thief Zhou Chong trying to cultivate Li Bao? It's definitely not because of Li Bao's spiritual talent. I'm afraid he's probably here for me! Could it be that after the passage of time, he still can't make it? Did Zhou Chong forget about the treasure light descending from heaven?"
Ye Ling pondered for a moment, secretly thinking that this idiot Li Bao might have been tricked by Zhou Chong.
Thinking of this, Ye Ling immediately heightened his vigilance! He ordered: "Sun Erhu, go and quietly invite Li Bao to me! Just say that Ye has not visited me for many days, and today I specially invite him to the Nangu Medicine Garden as a guest."
Ye Ling made up an excuse at random. No matter what the reason was, Li Bao didn't dare not come when he heard his master's call!
Sun Erhu, however, misunderstood and thought that Senior Brother Ye had heard that Li Bao was expected to join the Immortal Sect as soon as possible and wanted to win over him.
"By the way, after informing Li Bao, you go to Fengqiao Town and come back to find out some interesting and valuable information."
Ye Ling gave another casual instruction. He really wanted to know how much of a disturbance the death of the young master of Nansheng Sect caused around Maple Bridge Town! In particular, will Tang Xiong, the old sect leader who built the ninth floor of the foundation, investigate this matter in detail? Ye Ling is concerned about whether he can get any clues from the casual cultivators who escaped yesterday.
But this matter was in the limelight, and Ye Ling couldn't go out yet, so he sent Sun Erhu to inquire.
Sun Erhu was slightly startled, and asked coquettishly: "Senior Brother Ye, what are you referring to by the interesting and valuable news? Is it about the female cultivators of Fengchi Sect or the beauties in Fengqiao Town? These subordinates are all Cooked!"
"Bah!" Ye Ling was both angry and amused. He frowned and scolded Sun Erhu, and said coldly: "What I'm concerned about is what big disturbances are happening around Fengqiao Town? Where are the treasures of heaven and earth coming from? World? Which big chamber of commerce is holding an auction, which drug store has purchased a new batch of rare spiritual herbs? This is the direction you want to inquire! Do you understand?"
"I understand! I understand! I understand, I will go now!"
Sun Erhu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, patted the horse and sent him to the horse's legs again, he could only admit that he was unlucky. Sun Erhu only responded and left the Nangu Medicine Garden in despair, following Senior Brother Ye's instructions to do things.
Ye Ling continued to meditate in the bamboo house. Before long, it was not yet noon, and a thin and insignificant figure hurried over and stood quietly in front of Ye Ling.
Li Baosheng was afraid that outsiders would notice, so he sent a message to Ye Ling's spiritual consciousness and asked weakly: "Master, why are you calling me?"
Ye Ling sneered: "I heard that old guy Zhou Chong promised you a lot of benefits? Is this the case?"
Li Baocheng was so frightened that his legs trembled with fear. He swore and defended: "It is true! But in Li Baocheng's heart, there is only the word master! He will never dare to do anything to betray his master. The little boy was forced to I worshiped Zhou Chong as my master, but secretly he was very protective of my master and solved a lot of troubles for my master. This is a lesson for the world!"
Li Bao tried his best to show his loyalty, knowing that the soul blood was in the hands of his master. As long as the master had a thought, his soul would completely dissipate with the death of the soul blood!
Ye Ling saw that his expression did not seem to be hypocritical, and nodded: "You are a smart person, you should know that betrayal means death! On one side is the benefit Zhou Chong promised you, and on the other side is your life. Which is more important, you can weigh it yourself. .”
Li Bao hurriedly knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Master, calm down, what I said is true, I will never dare to joke with my own life. No matter how my damn master intimidates me, I will always It’s a matter of obedience and disobedience, and I will never do anything detrimental to my master.”
"Get up! There are other outer disciples in the south valley. Beware of being noticed by others and reaching the ears of that old thief Zhou Chong. From now on, you must be more careful in everything you do!"
When Li Bao heard this, his heart trembled, and he immediately stood up straight, pretending to be natural with great difficulty.
Ye Ling asked him about Zhou Chong, the old thief in recent days, and Li Bao told the truth.
It turns out that during Ye Ling's retreat, Foundation Establishment Elder Zhou Chong sent Li Bao to inspect and monitor Ye Ling's cave more than once, but Li Bao was just pretending and going through the motions. Even when Ye Ling went to the Changxi wilderness for training, Zhou Chong had taken care of Li Bao and ordered him to pay attention to Ye Ling's movements at all times, but Li Bao made up lies and coaxed him away.
