The handymen in Huozaofang have their own division of labor, and there are many like Zhao Qing who are responsible for collecting firewood.
Speaking of which, the most fragrant thing is the handyman who is responsible for purchasing. Spiritual grains, spiritual rice, fruits and vegetables all need to be detained at the foot of the mountain. Even if they can be lazy, some brave people will even steal property.
The worst thing is to carry water, you have to run back and forth, and you will be found fishing after taking a short rest.
As for the cook... Zhao Qing also worked for a while when he was young. Although he was not very tired and had time to rest, he was not very comfortable. Not only did he get up too early, but he also had to work under the nose of his supervisor, so it didn't take long for him to apply for a job change.
Although collecting firewood is tiring, it is task-based. As long as you can get firewood, you can do whatever you like. The place where you work is on Shouyun Mountain, so there is still a certain amount of space.
When he was in a good mood, time passed quickly. Not long after walking, Zhao Qing came to his own forest area.
Shouyun Mountain is very big, and he doesn't like to gather in groups, so he has been moving in relatively remote areas.
"Put more money today. After a few days of saving, we will go down the mountain for a walk and have a holiday." He planned while rubbing his waist.
"Same goes for Shu Yue. I just bought three gold coins, but after going through the process, the reaction was so big..."
Zhao Qing didn't make much preparation. After looking up at the sky, he chose a tree that wasn't particularly strong and cut it down. He kept his hands on it while wandering around.
"Beginner Alchemist...should be able to achieve it soon."
In Danxia Sect, only the outer disciples will be taught the knowledge of alchemy. As for the handymen, they are actually raising gu. It is best to be able to select good seedlings. It doesn't matter if you can't. Huozaofang is responsible for the food of all the handyman disciples, while other handymen are responsible for creating value, such as growing elixirs, mining and so on.
Zhao Qing clearly realized that the matter of his awakening panel was of great importance, so he did not mention it to anyone.
Although alchemy may not necessarily improve one's cultivation, the alchemist is a resource in itself, which is one of the reasons why the Danxia Sect can remain standing.
Originally, he had decided to retire and retire, but the appearance of the panel gave him another glimmer of hope.
He even walked with his back straight. In the past, he rarely went down the mountain to go shopping. Not to mention the mixed population in Danxia City, even with his minimum allowance of three Qi Gathering Pills per month, he couldn't afford anything.
This time I was thinking about going down the mountain. Firstly, I married a wife and had not yet purchased three pieces of gold and daily necessities. It was quite interesting to have a new member of the family.
Secondly, I am indeed used to being depressed over the years and want to relax.
Fortunately, Wang Shuyue is very obedient and well-behaved when we get along with her, and she is particularly easy to satisfy. Her specific character remains to be seen.
I don’t know if it’s because of the appearance, but at least Zhao Qing himself is quite satisfied.
The work of handyman disciples is not easy. Most people who cannot return to the kitchen will choose to solve the food problem on the spot and prepare dry food in advance.
However, Zhao Qing didn't feel hungry at all at this moment. This was the so-called "having enough energy but not thinking about food".
I'm just a little tired. I don't know why. I just finished cutting about thirty pounds and wanted to take a rest.
It's not too early to look up at the sky, how about... just do this for today?
No, Zhao Qing, Zhao Qing, what are you doing? Wouldn’t it be nice to cut more and save some money so you can go shopping some other time?
My newly married wife was waiting for me at home, but I was chopping wood all night long... How unbecoming!
Let’s talk about it tomorrow, go back and have something to eat, rest, recharge, and do double cultivation in the evening!
"Double cultivation is important." Zhao Qing whispered, packed up the firewood and utensils, and went down the mountain.
An hour later, after handing over the task, Zhao Qing returned to his small courtyard with vegetables.
But they found that the courtyard door was locked from the inside, and the slender figure could be vaguely seen through the crack in the door, busy in the courtyard.
"Shu Yue, open the door."
After the voice came out, the sweet wife quickly responded, trotted open the courtyard door, welcomed Zhao Qing in, and then locked the door.
She explained: "My husband is not at home, and occasionally an immortal master passes by..."
"It's okay, you did a good job."
Zhao Qing gently touched Wang Shuyue's hair and noticed the changes in the yard. It turned out that she had just been plowing the ground and planned to open a small vegetable plot.
"Are you exhausted? You're not feeling well. You can put these things aside for now."
He placed the working tools in the yard and said, "Let's eat first. Those seeds can be left for a while. There are still important things to do in the evening, so you should have a good rest."
After the little wife was stunned for a moment, burning clouds climbed onto her pretty face.
In front of the round table, the couple sat down, and the lovely wife served the porridge and picked the vegetables with great care, which made Zhao Qing very emotional.
Wang Shuyue's father was a monk, but he became a monk in his later years. After becoming a monk, he abandoned their mother and son and disappeared without a trace. Not long after, her mother also died of illness, leaving her alone.
Zhao Qing found that as a bride like him, it was relatively easy to get along with her because she was a bit sentimental, as long as she treated her as equals. Although this is rare in the world of immortality, and most people can't do it, he is different. As a foreigner, he has been beaten, and his eyes were black and blue under the heavy blows.
That night, after Zhao Qing checked the courtyard gate again, he hugged his beloved wife's waist.
Wang Shuyue's mouth trembled slightly, she broke away and walked to the wall, carefully arranged the wood-cutting tools and put them in the room. Then she said: "Husband, you are tired, Shu Yue will give you a shoulder squeeze."
The candles were extinguished, and the moonlight shone through the window paper, making it hazy.
The care is on the ground and on the body, like water and smoke, accompanied by soft singing.
The light rain on the sky street is as moist as crisp, the color of grass looks far away but not up close.
Zhao Qing checked carefully, but he didn't expect to be attacked...
After the two had some fun, they were as wide as the sky and the earth, and the sun and the moon were as long as they spent together.
Time flies, and with Wang Teng's care, Zhao Qing's life is relatively easy.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and the firewood gradually piled up in the yard, enough for two or three days of work. After all, now only thirty kilograms of firewood needed to be delivered a day.
Another early morning, the couple discussed the future together. As the girl's delicate forehead wrinkled slightly, an illusory panel appeared in front of Zhao Qing's eyes.
He didn't pay much attention to it and waited until the dust settled before taking a closer look.
[Gain alchemy experience: 10]
[Alchemist: Initial low-grade (205/200) can break through]
[Bond: Respect each other as guests]
[Single experience: 5]
As his eyes locked, his eyes suddenly changed.
[Alchemist: Beginner Intermediate Grade (5/500)]
At the same time, a large amount of knowledge about alchemy herbs appeared in his memory.
As if he was born with it, at this moment, he has become a junior alchemist, even a low-level one who has just started.
Qi Ju Dan: dredges the meridians and unblocks the meridians, and irrigates the heavens with Qi.
Three qian for the spirit-eating grass, eight qian for the lotus root, one liang for the bloodvine, five qian each for the red peony root and chuanxiong...
Zhao Qing looked shocked. He didn't expect the Qi Gathering Pill to be the lowest quality elixir. After comforting his sweet wife, he looked carefully. If he could successfully refine the Qi Gathering Pill, he would not have to worry about resources, and maybe there would be another chance. Promotion to outer door.
"Bloodvine relieves depression, lotus pod unblocks meridians, ephedra clears the lungs, and spirit-devouring grass is born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is originally a fairy grass. When these four medicines are combined, they can dredge the meridians and fill the heavens with qi, so they are king medicines.
Glauber's salt is cold and clears away diarrhea, talc is sweet and cold and clears away diarrhea, white peony root nourishes blood and astringes yin... All these eight medicines are ministerial medicines. "
After some inspection, apart from the alchemy techniques, the elixir recipe was already clear to the mind.
The Qi Gathering Pill was originally a prescription for mortals, but was later improved by the Immortal Sect for entry-level use. There are a total of thirty-two medicinal herbs for the emperor, ministers and envoys. Except for the spirit-devouring grass, the others are all common herbs.
The most important thing is that refining the Qi Gathering Pill requires putting spiritual energy into the furnace to regulate the monarch and his ministers. At least three levels of Qi refining are required!
And Zhao Qing happened to be at the third level of Qi Refining.
He thought about it for a long time and made an immediate decision.
Let’s go down the mountain today and set out for Danxia City!
