Night, quiet.
Clothes were scattered haphazardly on the living room floor.
Some are thrown aside, while others cover taboo parts of the graceful body.
Yuan Zhiqing was still lying down, staring blankly at the roof. The soft light shone on her cheeks with two lines of tears, revealing a trace of sadness.
She thought that this would probably be it for the rest of her life.
"Why are people born? What are they practicing for?"
Even though Master is as amazing and talented as he is, and given endless opportunities, he is unable to form an elixir.
She thought to herself that she could not compare with her master, and in the end she might just stop at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
And Zhong Yan, judging from his performance in the past few years, has accumulated enough resources and may be able to forcefully build a foundation.
Without entering the golden elixir, how much difference can there be in longevity between building the first level of the foundation and building the foundation of Dzogchen?
"Perhaps, it has already been destined that reproducing children is my destiny."
Although it is an arranged fate.
But she never blamed the senior sister in her heart, nor did she blame Zhong Yan who was also arranged.
If you have to blame, you can only blame your own natural cowardice.
I don’t know how long it took.
Sensing someone approaching, Yuan Zhiqing stood up, waved her hand and put on her shirt, and quickly put it on.
Seeing the bloodshot clothing, she pursed her lips, rolled it into the storage bag, and cast a spell to clean up the traces on the ground.
At this time, the sound of winter grass came from outside.
"Master Immortal, my master asked me to come here to see what your orders are."
Yuan Zhiqing walked to the door and saw Dongcao in the courtyard leading more than a dozen maids, carrying food boxes, wooden buckets, and purple clothes...
Dong Cao leaned over and smiled and said: "Master Yuan Xian, I brought some hot water here. Qingyang City is close to the sea and the air is humid. You may not be used to it when you first arrive in Qingyang. Take a hot bath and sleep more peacefully at night."
Yuan Zhiqing was slightly startled and smiled: "Thank you."
"What else do you need?"
"No thanks."
Dongcao left four maids to wait on her, but this time Yuan Zhiqing did not refuse.
…
the other side.
Zhong Yan returned to the training room.
My mind, which had calmed down, started to fluctuate again when I looked at the panel.
The True Spiritual Root Foundation-Building Monk is truly extraordinary!
[Golden Spiritual Root Bonus +360, Wood Spiritual Root Bonus +420, Cultivation Experience +700, Puppetry Technique Bonus +300]
There are no emotions and no special skills.
In terms of cultivation experience bonus alone, Qingyao's first reward is more than double.
The spiritual root bonus corresponds to the spiritual root qualification, and the cultivation experience is obviously linked to the realm.
Mortal wives and concubines are always '1', which is a symbolic point.
There are differences among monks, but the fluctuations are not big.
Previously, when Yu Qingyao broke through to the late stage of Qi refining, the bonus value did not change, so he thought it didn't matter much.
At this moment, it seems that the reward value will increase after breaking through the big realm.
And this is still unbound.
If Yuan Zhiqing is bound, it will be doubled ten times...it's exciting just thinking about it!
in addition.
What is even more surprising and unexpected is that there is an additional 'puppetry experience bonus'!
And the panel 'Career Column' has also changed.
[Occupation: Puppet (elementary 300/10000 to be activated), Talisman Making (first-order high-grade 48122/60000), formation (first-order low-grade 2689/5000)]
Zhong Yan knew about the profession of puppet master, but he didn't know much about it and had not been exposed to it yet.
Because this profession is not very popular in the world of cultivation, it is very rare compared to alchemists, formation masters, and talisman makers.
It is said that refining a puppet takes at least half a year and can take several years.
The combat power of the puppets made by the general puppet master is difficult to be higher than the puppet itself. In addition, the materials are precious, so the monks are not willing to practice the puppet technique.
If you buy a puppet made by others, it will not only require the sacrifice of the mind to be controlled by spiritual consciousness, but also the use of spiritual stones to drive it. The price is quite high and is not cost-effective, resulting in an oversupply in the market.
"Why the puppet master?"
Zhong Yan stared at the panel, pondered for a while and came up with a guess - Yuan Zhiqing should be a puppet master and achieved something.
According to the classification of the system, there is an introductory stage before the junior level.
Not only did the panel include the profession of 'Puppet Master', but the level also jumped directly to the junior level.
As for 'to be activated', it is obvious that it should be done after preliminary learning.
"awesome!"
Zhong Yan's eyes flickered. If his prediction was good, if he married an alchemist, he should also be rewarded with corresponding skills.
"The system will not bully me!"
There are many rewards yet to be discovered.
Just like opening a blind box, people are very excited.
"Yuan Zhiqing..."
Zhong Yan murmured that Huo Donglai checked her twice, and the information passed did not include the term 'puppet master', which shows how deep it is hidden.
He recalled what the other party said the first time he came to the house - no one except Qifeng knew her true identity.
I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. After all, I had been in Huoyun Sect for so many years, and I was always in contact with people.
Now that I think about it, it makes a lot of sense.
The previous scene appeared in his mind. The other party turned his face away motionlessly, with an expression as calm as a pool of stagnant water, which made Zhong Yan feel a little ashamed.
After exhaling, he put away the panel, adjusted his condition, and started making talismans.
Three days later, after the Yang family's banquet ended, Yu Qingyao and others returned from Qinghu Villa and told some gossip.
"Zhong Lang, as you said, Yang Yanqing had an affair with a third-generation woman from the Zhou family, but the woman divorced and stayed in the Yang family."
"Oh? Who said that?"
"Huo Qingqing said it herself. She has some emotions. It is estimated that her status in Yang Mansion will plummet. I also met that woman, who has the same cultivation level as me."
After a pause, Yu Qingyao added: "By the way, the Zhou family also left a guest to help him reach the perfection state of Qi refining."
"Help? Supervision is enough."
Zhong Yan smiled and said, "I'm going to Fangshi. You can watch me at home and walk around more with Yuan Zhiqing."
Yu Qingyao was startled: "Is the negotiation settled?"
Zhong Yan nodded and briefly explained the situation.
Ignoring jealousy, Yu Qingyao said worriedly: "She is a senior foundation builder. From now on, everything must be done by her? What on earth does Qifeng want to do?"
"It's useless to think too much. Work hard to improve your strength and adapt to changes in the future."
"Then why are you going to Fangshi? How about I go with you and have someone to take care of you."
"No, I'll call Pang Baodu and I'll be back in a few days."
Early the next morning.
Zhong Yan took Yan Sandao, who was carefully disguised as a man, and joined Taoist Duobao to Yangquanfang City.
The three of them had just left through the south gate.
Two women wearing bamboo hats led the horses into the city.
"Miss, Qingyang City is quite impressive. It doesn't look like a remote town at all."
"Now it is a big city. In the past, it was called 'Qingyu Town' and was home to large and small fishing villages. At that time, there were many sea beasts coming ashore in the Wei River to cause trouble..."
The woman covered with a veil under the bamboo hat looked at the buildings on both sides of the street and talked about the historical records of Qingyang from the book.
"One hundred and fifty years ago, the Qi State invaded and landed here. After that, the city was built and renamed Qingyang. The sea beasts were driven away, ports and docks were built, and wasteland was reclaimed. It gradually developed."
"Compared to the cities of Wangdi and Heishui, Qingyang has a shorter history. Its real prosperity has only been in the past ten years. After my brother took charge..."
The two of them walked all the way to the East District City Lord's Mansion.
Here comes the upright girl from the Qin Ben tribe, Qin Ziyue.
