Sitting in the main hall of Dali Temple and finishing all the work, Xing Shengbin wrapped himself in an official robe and began to practice meditation.

Because he was still at work, he could only use it to cultivate his qi to pass the time.

After all, the cultivation of qi can be interrupted at any time, there is no need to worry at all, the true qi will backlash, and the cultivation of the true yuan is different, even if it is a little worse, it may cause the true yuan to backlash, although it will not be seriously injured, but it is still very common to spit out two mouthfuls of blood.

In the more than a month since he took office in Dali Temple, Xing Shengbin has adapted to such a life.

Dali Temple has a total of eighteen people, except for a few other people to help in the morning and evening, most of the time is a person here.

However, this kind of life is more comfortable, after finishing work every day, Xing Shengbin can deal with some of his own things, whether it is the practice of swordsmanship, or the practice of true spiritual fire, in short, life is very comfortable.

It's just that the only unpleasant thing is that the arrival of winter makes this leaky hall extremely cold, so Xing Shengbin made a thick tablecloth, surrounded the table, and specially found a blacksmith to build a few small stoves only the size of a palm.

On a small day, this is a little more comfortable, the face is wrapped in a thick official robe, as long as the neck is shrunk, most of the face is shrunk into the collar, and it seems to be sitting here upright, but in fact, it has already been out of the world.

Just when Xing Shengbin was meditating and cultivating, dozens of questions from Dali Temple walked into the main hall carrying piles of things under the command of the main book.

Xing Shengbin looked at all this, this Dali Temple has two main books, in charge of all kinds of expenses inside and outside the Dali Temple, in fact, it is the accounting and finance of this Dali Temple, the position is one level lower than Xing Shengbin, and the official rank is three levels lower than Xing Shengbin.

Looking at the busy questions, Xing Shengbin asked:

"Master Kang, what are you doing here!

Master Kang said with a smile:

"Xingsi Cheng, the first time you came to our Dali Temple, isn't this about the New Year, this is the imperial court to send us a fortune, and at the end of each year, sent to all of you colored satin, silk, tea, etc., Xingsi Cheng, there is also your share, this is a tribute to the best goods, there is no such good thing on the market. ”

As soon as he heard that his salary was going to be paid, Xing Shengbin finally had some meaning, and asked casually:

"Master Kang, how much is my money this year!"

Master Kang took out the booklet and said with a smile:

"Eighty taels of silver, eighty taels of Lu rice is not enough to punish the temple, Lu rice has been exchanged for silver, this year's grain price is a little low, fifteen wen a catty, a total of one hundred and eighty taels were sold, plus the original eighty taels of silver, you can get a total of two hundred and sixty taels of silver. ”

"However, you have to deduct a few official robes made for you, twenty-four taels of silver, and you can get a total of two hundred and thirty-six taels of silver this time, as well as some colored satin, silk and other things rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor. ”

Hearing his own salary, Xing Shengbin couldn't help but be a little surprised, he didn't expect that he could receive a salary when he was in a hurry, which was really a bit unimaginable.

More than two hundred and thirty taels of silver, converted into renminbi, one gram of silver, seems to be five or six yuan!

Xing Shengbin only made a rough calculation, and this year's salary was about 50,000 or 60,000 yuan! This seems to be too little, but when he thinks of the purchasing power of silver, Xing Shengbin can only sigh that this world is really a deformed world.

However, this income is already more than fifty times higher than that of his father, and there is nothing to be satisfied with.

Xing Shengbin stretched out his hand and took out the small teapot under the table and above the stove, took a sip of tea and nodded and smiled:

"Well, it's not bad. ”

Seeing Xing Shengbin take out the teapot from under the table, Master Kang looked at the table covered with a thick tablecloth in confusion and asked:

"Xingsi Cheng, you are here~ why do you still have a teapot!"

Xing Shengbin smiled and took out his other hand and said:

"It was too cold a few days ago, so I made a special trip to the blacksmith shop and built a small stove, how about it!"

Master Kang looked at Xing Shengbin holding a palm-sized stove in his left hand stretched out, and said with a smile:

"Hey, the torture temple is really a good brain, you can think of this, this stove is really not big, let's put a piece of charcoal in it!"

Xing Shengbin blew directly at the tuyere, and the originally dim small stove instantly emitted a red light, and Xing Shengbin said with a smile:

"I can't fit one piece, it's almost burned, and it's just right to put half of it in. ”

Saying that, Xing Shengbin put the stove back under the table, in fact, Xing Shengbin didn't make it clear, because of the fate of cultivating the True Spirit Fire, he could use a little fire to practice true qi, prolong the burning time of charcoal, and only burn half a piece of charcoal a day.

Seeing this thing, Master Kang's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile:

"Master Xing, the lower officials have been busy dealing with official business these days, although they are in this inner hall, but they can't stand the people coming and going! You draw a pattern, after the New Year, I also let people build two, and the province handles official business in this cold day every day, you see~ My hands are frozen. ”

Xing Shengbin directly took a piece of paper on the side, reached out to the side to remove a piece of charcoal, and drew it, and finished it in three or two strokes. Raising his head, he motioned for Master Kang to take it.

Mr. Kang, who was standing on the side, said with a smile:

"Hey, Lord Torture, you really save trouble! You can draw with a piece of charcoal, this pattern is really good, thank you, I will send you your silver after a while, so you don't have to run again." ”

Xing Shengbin nodded with a smile and said:

"Then thank you, Master Kang. ”

Master Kang happily put away the pattern in his hand, and said with a smile:

"Master Xing, you are busy, the lower official will go to the apse first. ”

Xing Shengbin nodded, retracted his hands under the table again, and continued the practice that had been interrupted just now.

The errand of this Dali Temple is really easy, but the most important reason is his official position, in this position, it is too difficult for those below.

During the time he came to Kyoto, except for the fact that he was relatively busy when he first arrived, Xing Shengbin's life gradually calmed down, and his life at three o'clock every day and his simple work allowed him to spend more time on the cultivation of Qi Cultivation.

As a major practice, in the past few years, Qi cultivation has almost always been practiced only when I think about it occasionally, and the time spent on the ship is the time when I practice the most.

However, after getting off the boat, it may be that the difficulty of cultivation after the improvement of the realm increases, and even with the assistance of the elixir, the progress of Qi cultivation is still relatively slow.

After more than a year of cultivation, Qi Cultivation Determination had only just broken through the realm of enlightenment. I have to say that the cultivation of this sage is really too time-consuming.

In addition to the pills prepared for him by the master, there was also a pharmacy like Renjitang to support him in the back, and it took Xing Shengbin two months to break through from Xuanzhao to Kaiguang, and he didn't know if it was because the path of the sage was so difficult in the first place, or if his holy path qualifications were too poor.
