The wind blows in the daytime, and the scenery flows westward.
In just a few days, a big hole appeared in the originally empty east wing.
Wang Shuyue had dug a cellar in her home, and experienced people would not be in a hurry to do anything.
After the initial drawings were finalized, the two worked together to finalize the locations of the air vents and the support system that would fully support the expansion.
The refining progress of the Qi Gathering Pill has also been slowed down. Zhao Qing has a very obscure fanaticism about infrastructure construction.
In addition to practicing axe-cutting firewood every day, he would also bring back several straight and strong crossbars to support the stable structure of the east chamber and cellar.
Even the storage bag was vacated by him, specifically for storing wood.
Correspondingly, his proficiency in the Mountain Splitting Technique is also increasing day by day, and he is about to break through again.
"Accumulating proficiency in military tactics is obviously much faster than refining alchemy. Unfortunately, military tactics can only be used for self-defense and cannot make money."
Zhao Qing couldn't help but sigh as he walked on the way to the kitchen.
But in fact, it was his level that was too low that limited the progress of alchemy. For an alchemist with a suitable level, it would be effortless to produce multiple pills.
These days, he goes out early and comes back late, obsessed with picking wood. And there is no rest in the middle, because I have to rush to complete the tasks and make meals, so I can go home early and dig holes.
The outer disciple who was on duty looked at the bundles of twigs that Zhao Qing dragged behind him with doubts on his face.
"Where did you find so much wood? Don't you think it's troublesome?"
Zhao Qing grinned: "Senior brother, I have been in the kitchen, and scrap wood is easier to use. I have a lot of time these days, so I chose it intentionally."
The outer disciples who were on duty nodded happily, but felt quite disdainful in their hearts.
The strength of the handyman disciples ranges from innate to the sixth level of Qi refining.
In the Xiantian realm, generally new disciples work diligently, are obedient, easy to use, and don't express any opinions.
In the early stage of gas refining, most of them are old-fashioned. Although the tasks can be completed on time, the quality is uneven.
Regarding this situation, the outer disciples on duty also turned a blind eye.
For the handymen in the middle stage of Qi refining, the conditions will be much more relaxed, and many of the handymen have even left the kitchen and gone out to look for opportunities for breakthroughs.
If you can reach the later stage, you will be promoted to the outer sect.
Disciples on duty would not easily offend such people who were likely to receive the same treatment as themselves.
But obviously, Zhao Qing is an exception.
Even in the middle stage of Qi refining, he still worked hard and delivered firewood on time and in quantity. This behavior was quite explosive in the entire kitchen.
After Zhao Qing completed the task, he ignored the confused eyes of the senior brother on duty and went straight to the kitchen.
Put the horizontal wood into the storage bag and give the broken wood to the sect. It is reasonable and reasonable. What is there to be confused about?
After two sticks of incense, Zhao Qing returned to his yard with the food.
Wang Shuyue rolled up her sleeves, welcomed her husband into the courtyard door, and then locked the door in place with her backhand.
The girl whispered beside him in a mischievous voice: "Husband, I might as well go to Danxia City."
Zhao Qing stretched out his hand to wipe away the fine beads of sweat on his wife's forehead: "What's wrong?"
"The cellar we need to dig is too big and deep. It is also under the house, so it cannot be supported by crossbars alone."
"We have to make some gravel, sand, glutinous rice, mixed with straw, bamboo strips and linen cloth to reinforce it."
Zhao Qing nodded slightly. From the drawings to the construction of the cellar, most of the work was done by his wife... If it were in the previous life, the construction site would have to pay 200 a day, and she would have to take care of the food.
He hugged his beloved wife gently: "Let's eat first. Make a list of what you need. After this batch of medicinal materials is used up, I will go into the city and buy some."
The two of them had a simple meal and then went to the east wing again.
…
On early summer nights, from time to time, the high-pitched chirping of insects fills the night sky, which is annoying.
At the foot of Shouyun Mountain, candlelight flickers in the courtyard closest to the foot of the mountain.
A man and a woman, holding shovels, ruthlessly attacked the three-foot pothole in front of them.
Throughout the room, only the rustling sound of shoveling echoed.
The girl stopped, her eyes turned into crescent moons as she smiled, and whispered: "Why do you feel like a thief? Zhao Qing? Zhao Qing?"
"Stop talking! Be careful of being overheard."
…
Early the next morning, someone knocked on the door of the D-shaped courtyard again.
With his previous experiences, Zhao Qing was not too confused. He guessed that it was the junior brothers and sisters from next door who were here again.
He pushed open the door and came to the yard, and the other party quickly spoke out.
"Senior brother, it's me, Miao Jian."
Sure enough, his guess was correct... After Zhao Qing knew what was going on, he first locked the east wing and then opened the door.
After entering the door, the young junior brother saluted and said, "I heard from Chen Su that Senior Brother Zhao is back, so I came to visit."
He had a sword slung behind his back, and his posture was more upright than when we first saw him.
Zhao Qing noticed that he was already at the second level of Qi Refining, and couldn't help but sigh that he was leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.
"Junior brother, you're welcome. Please sit down and have a sip of tea."
He turned around and went under the eaves, shouting into the room: "Shu Yue, Junior Brother Miao is here, make some tea."
Soon, the wife's voice of agreement came from the room.
After Miao Jian sat down, he took out a porcelain vase from his sleeve, placed it safely on the table, and said respectfully: "I brought it back to the kitchen this time, with a little thought."
Zhao Qing glanced at it without changing his expression. The extremely rich fragrance of elixir filled the air, making him tense up subconsciously.
After all, he is also a junior and middle-level alchemist. Based on his experience in alchemy, what is in this bottle is definitely not an ordinary one, at least not what he can refine now.
This made him more alert.
My heart says you always give me gifts for a handyman, what's going on?
Zhao Qing asked directly: "Junior brother, is there something wrong?"
Miao Jian smiled slightly and did not answer directly.
Instead, he said: "Senior brother should also know that Xiaosu and I fell in love when we met, and we decided to hold the wedding in five days."
Getting married...
Zhao Qing probably had a clue in his mind: "Well, first of all, I have to congratulate my junior brother for bringing back the beauty. If you need any help then, just ask."
Miao Jian returned the gift, then looked at the small porcelain bottle placed on the table, paused and said, "I brought two Beauty Pills when I came back this time, one for Xiaosu and one for my sister-in-law."
? ? ?
Zhuyan Dan!
Zhao Qing suppressed his smile and looked up and down at the young junior brother in front of him.
He didn't know how many spirit stones the Zhuyan Dan had, but he had a rough idea of its value, which was more expensive than the Spirit Gathering Array.
It was completely beyond the reach of a monk in the early stage of Qi refining. He even wondered where Miao Jian came from so much money.
"Junior brother, it's better to take such a precious thing back. You and I live as neighbors, so we should help. There is no need for such a big gift."
Miao Jian smiled bitterly.
"Senior brother, we just came to the kitchen not long ago, and our eyes suddenly darkened. And I'm often in the city...I heard that senior brother's wedding was held in the spring?"
"I would like to ask my senior brother to help with the cooking. I would like to ask some senior brothers and sisters from the kitchen to help me."
You need a cook... You can’t spend so much money on a cook, right?
"The senior sisters in the kitchen are more playful and are happy to help. No need to take care of things."
Zhao Qing shied away again. He always felt that Miao Jian must have something else.
Miao Jian saluted again and took a deep breath, which made Zhao Qing a little nervous, not knowing what he was going to say next.
"Miao Jian has been in the kitchen for more than a month. Thanks to my senior brother for giving me many advices and taking care of me, he treats me like a hand and a foot."
"And I have no relatives at home, so I would like to ask my senior brother to attend my marriage in the name of my elder brother!"
?
No, there are more, there must be more!
Zhao Qing took a sip of tea silently. He was very familiar with these three things. First, give gifts, recognize relatives, and finally get down to business.
