The Taihe Sect governs one city and fourteen towns. Becoming a disciple of the Taihe Sect is just like becoming a civil servant on earth. For the people of Jingzhishan Town, it is a great thing.
Ma Rupei's wish is to be admitted to the inner sect of Taihe Sect after building a foundation.
Shan Heyuan didn't expect that Ma Rupei hadn't taken the exam yet, so Chu Mingyue invited him first.
He looked at Zu Mingyue: "Fellow Taoist Qiu, aren't only those above the Foundation Establishment stage eligible to take the exam for the inner sect of the Taihe Sect?"
Zhu Mingyue said warmly: "This is the general entry method. A genius like Daoist Shan, naturally has to do special things."
Shan Heyuan didn't expect to receive such a high evaluation from Zhu Mingyue, and was stunned for a moment.
Qi Yuanbai was very optimistic about him, and said from the side: "Yes, the master master said two days ago that Brother Shan's spiritual plant garden has been done well, so he is relieved for the time being."
Ji Mingyue: "Our Taihe Sect is ranked high among the many second-level sects under Fengjian Sect, and the personnel are simple. If Fellow Daoist Shan wants to take the exam for the sect, we are definitely a good choice."
Qi Yuanbai nodded repeatedly beside him.
Ji Mingyue said again: "If Fellow Daoist Shan takes the exam, we can set up a separate examination. The Taihe Sect has not recruited spiritual planters for many years. As long as Fellow Daoist Shan is willing to take the exam, he can pass, how about it?"
After all, Ming Yue is gentle and speaks truthfully.
Even though Shan Heyuan had never considered joining the sect before, when he said this, his heart was filled with waves.
In the afternoon, Shan Heyuan soaked all the removed spiritual plant branches in the rooting water and waited for Shen Duheng to come and pick him up.
Shen Duheng came a little late today, and Shan Heyuan sat outside the Lingzhi Garden and waited.
Qi Yuanbai originally wanted to accompany him, but he declined.
He wanted to be alone.
As soon as Shen Duheng came over, he saw Shan Heyuan sitting outside the Spiritual Plant Garden. The sunset stretched his shadow very long, his fine hair brushed against his porcelain face, and his eyes were a little confused.
Shen Duheng looked at him, his eyes suddenly condensed, and he came over: "Advanced again?"
Shan Heyuan sat with his butt feeling cold, raised his head and said, "Unexpectedly, when I used the "Hua Chun Jue" to give Lingzhi spiritual power, he entered a state of forgetfulness of things and myself, and gained a lot of Lingzhi's spiritual power."
Shen Duheng stretched out his hand to pull him up: "No wonder. However, the disciples of large sects rarely lack spiritual cultivation, and their advancement is not as fast as yours."
Shan Heyuan nodded.
Seeing that his attitude was not quite right, Shen Duheng asked, "Is there anything else?"
Shan Heyuan: "Today, fellow Taoist disciples invited me to take the test of the Taihe Sect Neimen. If I say I am willing to take the test, I will be admitted."
Shen Duheng: "He is optimistic about you. What do you think?"
Shan Heyuan looked at Shen Duheng: "I'm still thinking. The Taihe Sect is quite good, and the sect's style is also upright. But if I'm bound to Canjian, it's like being bound to you. We are one, we have to take a look. your thoughts."
They were still in the Gate of Supreme Harmony, even if there was no one around, it was hard to say some things.
Shen Duheng said: "Go back first and discuss it later."
Shen Duheng took Shan Heyuan home with his sword.
It was cold now and it got dark early. It was already dark when the two got home.
Not wanting to cook today, Shan Heyuan poured out two Bigu Pills, and Shen Duheng took one for him and settled the matter.
The two sat down to discuss.
Shen Duheng asked: "Put aside my factors, do you want to enter the inner gate of Taihe Gate?"
Shan Heyuan: "I haven't thought about these things. In our world, people look for jobs when they become adults and generally don't stay in one place until they grow old."
The biggest difference between a sect and a company is loyalty.
The company only works to get paid, and there are no more responsibilities or obligations between each other.
The sect is different. The sect is close to a family-like existence. Once you join, you cannot leave. If you want to leave, it is basically equivalent to bullying the master and destroying the ancestor, which is a serious moral stain.
However, the sect treats its disciples well, providing them with various resources and basically nurturing them as their own sons and nephews.
Shan Heyuan told Shen Duheng his thoughts.
Shen Duheng: "The Taihe Sect has taken a fancy to your planting skills, and now they are begging you to join."
Shan Heyuan thought about it and nodded: "Absolutely."
Shen Duheng: "They recognize your ability. Even if you don't join now, if you want to join after a while, they will probably accept it."
This is the truth, Shan Heyuan said: "I don't think it's a big problem."
Shen Duheng: "Do you think you can build a foundation?"
Shan Heyuan had just advanced to the third level today. It was when he was most confident. When he heard this question, he immediately said: "Yes!"
Shen Duheng: "By building the foundation, you can test the inner sect of the Taihe Sect. Since you are sure about the foundation building, you might as well put it aside first. Even if you don't take the Taihe Sect later, it is not difficult to test a sect similar to the Taihe Sect."
Shan Heyuan felt that it made sense.
After discussion, Shan Heyuan declined the Taihe Sect's invitation.
Unfortunately, Mingyue is not that kind of narrow-minded monk, and the cooperation between the two parties is still very pleasant.
Shan Heyuan had the intention to practice with these sick plants from the Taihe Sect, and he took good care of them.
I don't know whether it was because of his improvement in cultivation or his level, but the branches after treatment had basically grown roots.
He only took one branch from most of the diseased plants. There were also some diseased plants that were in better condition, and he took two or three branches from each plant.
All the branches sprouted, and after re-transplantation, the number of spiritual plants was more than before.
He directly planted a new spiritual plant garden for Taihe Sect.
On this day, in front of Shan Heyuan's newly planted plantation, Wen Chengyi, Zhu Mingyue and others accompanied an old monk as they walked towards the plantation.
The old man walked to the plantation. He didn't go in first. Instead, he stood on tiptoes and looked at the branches that had just sprouted all over the garden. He was surprised: "Really saved? I thought these spiritual plants were hopeless?"
Wen Chengyi: "It's all the ingenuity of a young Taoist friend."
The old man put his hands behind his back and commented: "This is not a simple idea. Without certain skills, I dare not think of this method. We planters should think more broadly."
Wen Chengyi took him into the spiritual plant garden: "Shan Xiaoyou is indeed a very talented artist and a bold man. Before he came out, I listened to the head of the Taihe Sect's idea. I didn't agree with it at the time because I was afraid of screwing up."
The old man turned to look at him: "Old Wen, are you carrying the sedan for that little Taoist friend?"
Wen Chengyi smiled: "Although Shan Xiaoyou has average abilities, his understanding is very good. He can also learn "Hua Chun Jue" by himself, so I don't need to support him."
Old man: "That's not easy."
The old man chatted for a few words and then returned to the topic: "What is the success rate of planting like this?"
Zhu Mingyue said from the side: "One hundred and twenty percent."
The old man suddenly became happy: "How can you still reach one hundred and two?"
Ji Mingyue: "The previous diseased plants, some single Daoist friends, were divided into two or three plants. After the new ones were planted, the number of spiritual plants was more than before, so it is 120%."
Old man: "How much spiritual power is stored in the new plant?"
As he became more mature, he replied: "About 30 to 50%. It's not to blame Shan Xiaoyou's skills. Lingzhi was indeed very ill before, and his spiritual power was almost exhausted."
"That's amazing." The old man's eyes flashed, "Old Wen, let me tell you, you now know how to deal with this diseased plant. If another batch of similar diseased plants is handed over to you, how sure are you? "
Wen Chengyi: "I'm not even half sure, and I won't take on this kind of business. At your age and my age, experience and skills have increased. It's true that young people may not be able to do a job well. Look at what people do. How delicate.”
The old man laughed: "You don't want to get your feathers wet, do you?"
Wen Chengyi: "Of course, the reputation I have accumulated for most of my life. I am old and there is no hope of breakthrough in my cultivation, so I don't plan to go any further."
Several people were talking here, and Shan Heyuan's sword flew over unsteadily.
His limbs were so tense that people could tell he was a novice at a glance. Ji Mingyue and others also recognized him immediately.
Shan Heyuan landed in the Spiritual Plant Garden and saw someone coming. After saying hello, he asked: "Senior Wen, this is -"
Wen Chengyi: "Let me introduce to you, this is Tong Liangji, the master of Fengjian Academy's Planting Institute, a second-grade planter."
Shan Heyuan saluted quickly, and Tong Liangji looked him up and down, his eyes full of interest: "Shan Xiaoyou is indeed extraordinary, how old is he?"
After coming to this world, this was the first time someone asked him how old he was when he met him. Shan Heyuandao was stunned for a moment before replying: "Twenty-four."
Tong Liangji looked at the small buds and leaves that had just emerged from the soil in the garden, and then at Shan Heyuan standing in front of him, with a smile on his lips: "Twenty-four, the eighth level of Qi refining, not bad. I heard that you traveled from another world and came here, and you just started practicing?"
This is no secret, Shan Heyuan nodded.
Tong Liangji's smile grew brighter: "My little friend, are you interested in taking the exam at our Fengjian Academy?"
No one expected that Tong Liangji would send out an invitation, and everyone present had strange expressions on their faces.
Qi Yuanbai, the youngest, turned green and looked at Tong Liangji with wide eyes. How could the senior poach in front of him? !
Shan Heyuan was also stunned.
Fengjian Academy is affiliated to Fengjian Sect. It is the top academic institution in the seven continents and four seas. Those who can enroll are all talented.
He has also seen people buying shadow stones produced by Fengjian Academy. One shadow stone can cost at least a thousand spirit beads.
The master of such a university actually invited him? !
Shan Heyuan quickly came to his senses and said seriously to Tong Liangji: "When my cultivation level improves, I will go and have a look. Thank you, Senior Tong."
Tong Liangji smiled: "If you have time, you'd better take the planter's rank test first, and read more planter's classics."
Shan Heyuan nodded quickly.
A few people chatted for a while, then turned to Ling Zhi.
Wen Chengyi was afraid that Shan Heyuan would misunderstand, so he explained specifically: "I invited Lao Tong before, but he didn't have time to come over until now."
It means that Shan Heyuan didn't just come to pick peaches after he finished it.
Shan Heyuan quickly said that he did not misunderstand: "I am not good at learning, so I asked two seniors for advice."
Unexpectedly, Tongliangji waved his hand: "I have nothing to advise. Even if these sick plants are handed over to me, I can only save this."
As soon as Tong Liangji spoke, everyone present showed surprised expressions.
Zhu Mingyue looked at Shan Heyuan even more eagerly.
Shan Heyuan was also stunned by the praise, and he didn't know if he was really that powerful or if Tong Liangji just had this style.
However, if a second-grade planter is willing to praise him like this, it means that his skills are very good!
