The next day, Li Changsheng got up early and went to the place where the registered disciple worked and waited. There were not many people around yet, only a few early birds were jumping on the trees, making crisp chirping sounds.
About half an hour later, the young man who gave him the ID card yesterday appeared. I heard from Zhang Han that this person's name is Chen Fei, and he is responsible for the daily work of these registered disciples. Zhang Han also specifically warned Chen Fei not to offend him, otherwise he would never run out of shoes.
Chen Fei, now an outer disciple of the second level of Qi Condensation, has been practicing in the sect for more than ten years. However, his qualifications were too poor and he was not favored, so he was sent here to manage registered disciples. For him, if there is no special opportunity, he will basically miss the path to immortality.
Chen Fei hooked his hand and motioned for Li Changsheng to come over. Li Changsheng walked up to him respectfully and heard Chen Fei say: "Did you see the thatched shed next to the fire house? This is what you have to chop in one day. Take this jade token and follow me first."
Li Changsheng followed Chen Fei to the mountainside. The spiritual energy here was much richer than at the bottom of the mountain. Chen Fei pointed to the top and said: "This is where the outer disciples practice. You can't enter without the jade token I gave you, and you will be blocked by the immortal magic."
After saying that, Chen Fei continued to walk forward and came to a herb garden. He said respectfully: "Senior Brother Sun, Junior Brother Chen Fei wants to see you."
A voice came from the herb garden: "What's the matter? Tell me quickly! Don't disturb my practice!"
Chen Fei hurriedly said: "The named disciple who carried water for Uncle Master has come down the mountain. Today he brought the new disciples to the mountain to pay homage to Uncle Master. From now on, this named disciple will complete the work of carrying water."
Senior Brother Sun nodded and said to Chen Fei: "I understand, you can leave and he will stay."
Chen Fei clasped his fists and excused himself, gesturing for Li Changsheng to come in.
Li Changsheng walked into the medicine garden and saw a young man wearing a gray robe. He quickly cupped his fists and said, "Registered disciple Li Changsheng has met Master Sun."
Immortal Master Sun looked indifferent and said, "Well, you come with me."
He took Li Changsheng to the water pool halfway up the mountain and said: "From now on, your job is to carry water here, carry it to the water tank in the thatched house of the medicine garden, and fill it up. Remember, it can only be done here halfway up the mountain. Fetch water, do you hear me clearly?”
"Yes, Immortal Master." Li Changsheng replied respectfully.
Immortal Sun continued: "There are books about medicinal herbs in the thatched house, you can check them out. Each piece of elixir land records how much spiritual water needs to be poured, and you are responsible for watering these elixirs. Remember, no more, no less, and you must strictly follow the instructions. Do what the classics say. Do the watering first before carrying the water every day. If anything goes wrong with these elixirs, your life will not be enough to pay for it! Do you understand?"
"Remember, Master Sun." Li Changsheng replied respectfully.
"Also, your range of activities is limited to this place, and you are not allowed to run around." Master Sun said coldly, "You can leave now."
After saying that, before Li Changsheng could reply, Master Sun had already left.
Li Changsheng went down the mountain to the fire house and started his work. It was already noon when he finished chopping firewood. He ate something and then went up to the mountain to water the water. After pouring water, he started to fetch water. By the time he finished all these tasks, it was already evening. He was physically and mentally exhausted and had no time to practice.
Back at the thatched house, Li Changsheng saw that Zhang Han was already meditating. Hearing the sound, Zhang Han opened his eyes and said, "You will come back later than I thought. Eat something. I left it on the table for you."
Li Changsheng said gratefully: "Thank you, Zhang Han."
Zhang Han sighed and said: "Our so-called registered disciples are actually handymen. I have been here for a year, and I practice immediately after finishing my work every day. However, my qualifications are too poor, and I don't have spiritual stones to buy elixirs. I just I can practice hard on my own. Now I haven't even touched the threshold to enter the first level of Qi Condensation."
He looked up and continued: "The spiritual energy in the place where our named disciples live is too thin, and it is impossible to introduce spiritual energy into the body. We can only save some spiritual stones and buy a few pills to try to see if we can break through the condensed energy. First level. Registered disciples have three low-level spiritual stones in a year, plus they usually help the outer disciples do things and run errands, so they can still save a few in a year."
After Li Changsheng finished eating, he asked: "Zhang Han, what is your job?"
Zhang Han sighed and said: "I work in the fire room and am responsible for your food and drink every day. I go down the mountain once every half month to purchase supplies. If you need anything, you can tell me and I won't charge you any extra spiritual stones." "
Zhang Han laughed out loud when he saw Li Changsheng's dazed look, and then said, "I'm going down the mountain tomorrow and will be back in three days. Let's rest first. We have to get up early tomorrow."
