The one-day trip to the inner city was a near miss, and I got a subsidy in vain. Overall, the current tone of life in Ningxia is still very happy.
At least it was much better than the chaos and chaos on Yundao a few days ago. Ningxia felt that she had finally returned to normal life.
Of course, this is only temporary. Life in the world of cultivation is really not so ordinary. It is more about exciting experiences and various unexpected events. Comfort is really a very luxurious existence for monks.
The same is true for Ningxia. Although her daily life is also full of all kinds of unexpected accidents, and even some inexplicable shocks, such days are undoubtedly relatively relaxing for her.
But she also knew that this moment would not last long, and a new adventure was about to begin. Soon she will face new tests, environments and even... people.
The anomalies in the secret realm of Yanling Lake are still continuing, but the atmosphere in the main city is already very tense. Both the local monks in southern Xinjiang and the outside monks like Ningxia couldn't help but be affected by such a tight and depressed atmosphere, and couldn't help but become nervous.
No one knows why Yanlinghu Secret Realm, which has been open normally for so many years, suddenly has such an accident? I don’t know what changes caused the delay in the secret realm... But one thing is certain, if the secret realm is not opened again, and those outside monks refuse to retreat from southern Xinjiang, God knows what terrible things will happen in the end?
Now each of them still retains a certain amount of sanity and is bound by their own rope bolts, but once they lose control, it will not be as simple as re-tying the rope.
This city that had been destroyed by betrayal could no longer afford to lose control again.
For this reason, various local factions in southern Xinjiang have actually held many meetings, and they have gathered in large and small gatherings, but they have not come up with a solution. Because they discovered that even if they discovered something was wrong, there was nothing they could do about it.
First of all, it was impossible for them to invite people from all parties gathered in the main city of Southern Xinjiang to leave. After all, they were the ones who opened the gate to allow people to come in. If he invites people now, it will be a complete enmity, and it can cause a big trouble even if it is nothing.
Furthermore, there is nothing they can do about the anomalies in the secret realm of Yanling Lake.
Because we can only remain in a stalemate here. As the official representative of official power in the main city, the Zhongzheng Mansion had to station more manpower at various points to reduce the possibility of expanding friction.
And those foreign monks who traveled all the way to southern Xinjiang because of the secret realm were naturally not happy.
The monks in southern Xinjiang are better off. No matter what, they are still on their own territory, they are just waiting, and this does not affect their daily life. Fight when you should fight, practice when you should practice, if there is any disturbance, you can hear it from the streets and alleys immediately.
But it is a lot of inconvenience for foreign monks. Although a monk's time is not so valuable, the higher the cultivation level, the more so. But that doesn’t mean they like to waste time on unnecessary things.
Especially since they are all stranded in Southern Xinjiang, they can't do anything in their family clan, and it's not easy to gain experience in other people's territory in Southern Xinjiang. More importantly, they cannot obtain more resources by staying here.
For monks, resources are the root of everything. Even the most talented monk's training requires certain resources, which are indispensable.
But where did they find more resources in southern Xinjiang? It has never been realistic to rely on the few resources provided by the sect to practice. Then it can only be obtained from southern Xinjiang...
This is also the fundamental reason for the conflict between foreign monks and local monks in southern Xinjiang.
Everyone also knows that this is not a long-term solution. They came here just for the resources of the secret realm of Yanling Lake, and they stayed here to get more resources. If they didn't get them in the end, they would naturally disperse. It's just that no one is willing to leave first now, no one wants to be the joke that picks up sesame seeds and throws away watermelons.
Helpless, the two factions have no choice but to maintain the current embarrassing situation in their hearts, and they pray that this situation can be broken as soon as possible.
Of course, these considerations have nothing to do with young monks like Ningxia who have insufficient cultivation. The only thing she needs to care about is - when will the secret realm be opened?
Unfortunately, she could only learn from her teacher every day that a certain group of forces had clashed because of XXX, leading to a armed fight.
The situation is already dire.
On this day, Ningxia came to the lobby of the Temporary Inn to dine as always and to inquire about some news.
The living habits of monks are actually no different from those of mortals. After all, they all came from mortals. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all provided.
It's just that there are still some differences in the way you are a monk. This is especially true when it comes to food...the food of monks is completely different from the food of mortals.
As a monk, if your cultivation level is high enough, it is theoretically okay not to eat. It's just that it's still difficult to do this for Jindan and below. You need to replenish energy through physical intake, or the relatively convenient Bigu Pill.
Most of the contemporary young monks do not have a strong appetite for words, so more people choose bigu pills and fewer people choose spiritual food.
However, in her previous life, Ningxia had always been influenced by the education that "people are like iron rice and steel." If you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry. You always feel that something is wrong if you don't eat. Even though he has been assimilated a lot by the cultivation world over the years, some stubborn habits have still remained, like eating——
Even if you can't eat it every day, you still have to eat it every now and then. Especially in the morning, sometimes two baskets of sweet and salty snacks, a pot of tea, and a bowl of hot rice porridge will make you feel as happy as a god.
Ningxia is probably the most enthusiastic monk in the entire Wuhua Sect.
I don’t know if it was influenced by Ningxia, but Jin Lin and others would occasionally come over to have a meal. The senior brothers and sisters would chat with each other about the news or interesting things they heard. The days of being stranded in southern Xinjiang were not too sad.
It's just that the people sitting across from her chatting with her today are not the usual familiar faces.
Because few people come downstairs to dine, the hall where the inn serves spiritual food is very deserted. There are only a few tables of people, and the spacious space can be considered quiet.
Ning Xia's table combination was particularly obvious, not because of her, but because of the person sitting opposite her.
Fortunately, after these years of "training", Ningxia has become accustomed to all kinds of gazes, and can even adapt well to all kinds of strange and probing gazes.
Therefore, regarding the discussions at the two tables not far away that she thought were very hidden and whispered, Ningxia's eyebrows did not even twitch and she listened carefully to the words of the people opposite her.
"No wonder..." After listening to the other party's explanation, Ning Xia sighed with sudden realization.
