At the foot of Shouyun Mountain, the courtyard has the last name of D.
The book of ordinary body-building exercises that I bought at the market last time was scattered on the ground.
Wang Shuyue pursed her red lips slightly, gritted her teeth and silently endured the pain of the exercise. Her exhausted husband was breathing heavily and dripping with salty sweat.
As the spiritual energy surged, the girl seemed to be on top of the wave, feeling that her whole body was floating, and even her soul would be thrown out of her body by the waves at any time.
She fired the real fire, with tears falling from the corners of her eyes. She gathered strength to follow the guidance of the technique, twisted her waist, and reversed her attack and defense.
Zhao Qing was defeated, fired the last spiritual energy dragon, and lay down on the ground.
He was so tired that he felt a little dazed, as if he saw the silver-encrusted earrings he bought for his wife half a month ago swaying in front of his eyes, up and down...

"Husband." The sweet wife called softly and encouraged: "Husband, don't be discouraged. You will definitely be able to break through the late stage of Qi refining and be promoted to an outer disciple!"
He was noncommittal and weak: "When you reach the innate realm, I will take you to test your spiritual roots."
"I shouldn't have any qualifications, otherwise my father would not give up on us." Wang Shuyue smiled bitterly and shook her head slightly.
Zhao Qing was silent, and after a moment of comfort, he reminded his wife to practice the exercises diligently and ask him if she had anything she didn't understand.
Then he started meditating to restore his spiritual energy and continued his proficiency in the Liver Qi Gathering Pill.
Early the next morning.
There was a knock on the courtyard door, which surprised Zhao Qing.
Who will knock on your door?
"Shu Yue, please tidy up the room and I'll go take a look."
After saying that, he straightened his robes and came to the yard.
The people outside the door heard the noise, and the knocking on the door slowed down: "Brother, we are disciples of Ding No. 59 Courtyard, and we came here specially to visit."
It turns out to be a new neighbor...
Zhao Qing relaxed and stepped forward to open the courtyard door.
What came into view was a group of young men and women, arranged in two rows, standing upright and looking very grand.
"Junior brothers and sisters, please come in quickly."
Zhao Qing turned sideways to welcome a group of novices into the courtyard, and then closed the courtyard door. He even came to visit his neighbor. He must be the new handyman disciple who started yesterday. He was so naive.
"I don't have much furniture here. You can just sit wherever you like. My surname is Zhao, and my last name is Qing."
The leading young man carried a jug of wine and put it on the steps. He said respectfully, "Senior Brother Zhao, this is the wine I drank while wandering around Danxia City yesterday. Although it is not a good product, it still tastes very mellow."
Zhao Qing glanced at it.
The wine flask is small and exquisite, with a faint surge of spiritual energy on it, and it doesn't look cheap.
But this was just a look. He knew very well that there were many profiteers in Dongfang who specialized in cheating Xiaobai. If he guessed correctly, that's where this bottle of wine came from.
A group of young men and women came forward to pay tribute.
The leader's name was Miao Jian, and he explained his purpose: "Senior Brother Zhao, it's like this. When we moved in yesterday, most of the D-shaped courtyard was empty, except for the gate of the last courtyard at the foot of the mountain. We asked many times Then, I found that there are no new disciples staying here."
"I thought that my senior brother must be extremely extraordinary. At that time, I thought about coming to ask for advice. Now it seems that my senior brother is really unpredictable."
He glanced at the entire courtyard with meaning. There was no one else living in the huge courtyard, which already explained a lot of problems.
You must know that their new disciples all share a courtyard with more than ten people. Although men and women are not in the same room, it is still very inconvenient.
Zhao Qing cursed after hearing the compliment. You can also have three Qi Gathering Pills every month.
Everyone saw that he didn't speak and didn't care. Someone asked: "Senior Brother Zhao, I'm new here. I wonder if there are any rules in Huozao Fang to prevent us from causing trouble by being careless."
Zhao Qing couldn't help but remember that he was like them when he first started.
He turned around and sat on the steps and said: "The handyman disciples don't have too many rules. As long as they complete the tasks assigned by the outer disciples on time, they can move around freely."
"Our Huozaofang disciples are treated much better than others. The place where we receive our tasks is in the kitchen, and we can eat along the way. The sect's spiritual porridge is not comparable to ordinary food. Long-term consumption is good for the body."
"Although Caofang Mining Factory will also come to eat, there are not many of them. If you go mining for ten days and a half, there is no time to come here to eat. Caofang... Caofang disciples live a more luxurious life, so come here Not much, so you don’t have to be too outspoken in the kitchen.”
He continued to speak, and everyone couldn't help but look happy. Nice kitchen! Hello handyman! The task is simple and easy. This was how he was deceived back then, and he even felt that the handyman was actually more comfortable than the disciples of the outer sect and the inner sect.
But obviously, the reality is not like this.
"After the mission is completed, you can go down the mountain and take a stroll. The senior brothers of our sect are on duty in Danxia City. Although the security is average, you will still be taken care of when wearing our robes. There are many sundries for sale in the Dongfang stall area, and loose talismans There are magical magical weapons, but they require a certain amount of vision."
Many novices listened attentively. These were all detours taken by the predecessors, so they had to be remembered carefully.
"Nanfang is the closest to the city gate. Most of them are the properties of the sect brothers, and there are many alchemy shops. Beifang is a gathering place for casual cultivators. You can buy spells, magic tools, techniques, and spiritual arrays there. There are also houses. Rent. The rent is not very expensive. If it’s inconvenient to live in the mountains, you can come over and have a look..."
After a long time, a disciple raised his hand and said: "Senior Brother Zhao, I heard that the handyman disciples of our Danxia Sect will distribute three Qi Gathering Pills every month. I don't know when it will be?"
Sure enough, just like him before, he came here for the Qi Gathering Pill.
"In the first ten days of every month, you can go to the Alchemy Hall to collect it by yourself. It is recommended that you finish it before the ninth day of the Lunar New Year. The Alchemy Hall is not open every day, and it cannot be accumulated, so the earlier the better. If you really can't leave, you can ask a fellow disciple to collect it on your behalf. .”
After listening to Zhao Qing's explanation, everyone looked happy. This is not recruiting disciples. It is simply charity!
After you finish your work, you can go shopping, take care of food and accommodation, and receive pills, so you don’t have to worry about life problems at all!
Some people have already begun to dream about a better life in the future.
"We can go to Beifang and have a look. Brother Zhao said there are houses for rent there. Then we will come to the sect every morning to eat and work, and go home in the evening." A female cultivator became excited and discussed with her fellow sisters.
There are also male cultivators who have beautiful thoughts. "It's true. As long as you complete the task, you can go down the mountain. We can also go to Dongfang to set up a stall in the future."
Zhao Qing smiled and said nothing.
Yes, you can go wherever you want, if you still have the strength after completing the mission...
Someone else asked: "Brother, what about Xifang? What is there in Xifang?"
Zhao Qing's smile faded, and he gave a rare warning: "It's best not to go to Xifang. There is a mixed bag of good and bad people there, and they are all seniors in the late stages of Qi Refining, and even occasionally Foundation Establishment seniors appear."
…
"What tasks are assigned to your yard?" he asked.
Miao Jian bowed his hands and saluted: "Brother, we are responsible for carrying water, so it won't be too strenuous. We can divide the total amount of the task, each person is responsible for a certain distance, and hand over halfway, and the task should be completed quickly. "
Everyone stayed for a while before getting up and preparing to leave.
Before going out, Zhao Qing thought about giving something to his neighbors. After thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing at home. He couldn't give him deer antler and tiger whip, right?
He thought for a long time and shouted into the room: "Shu Yue, bring the spiritual seeds we packed yesterday."
The girl carefully held the freshly dried seeds and walked out of the room.
Everyone was a little surprised. They couldn't see through Zhao Qing's cultivation, but they could feel that this senior brother's wife must be a mortal.
Although she was confused, she still kept complimenting her, which made Wang Shuyue cover her mouth and laugh.
"Senior brother is relatively idle and has nothing to offer. You have just moved into the courtyard, so it must be relatively empty. These spiritual seeds can be planted. If you take more care of them, you will have a good harvest."
Zhao Qing watched everyone leave with a smile, as if watching how the new crop of leeks was growing.
Young...so good!
