The next day, the day dawned, and the slaves woke up from their deep sleep.

They stretched their waists and were about to start the day's hard work.

Xia Gui was once again extremely excited, waking up from the nightmare of being devoured by Zu Kun.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, another terrifying dream. Last night's death meditation entered Zu Kun's dream again, and was once again devoured by that terrifying Taigu monster. However, perhaps because I have already experienced it once, this time the fear is not so deep.

At the same time, he clearly felt that the power of his soul had been strengthened again. If it used to be a chaotic qi that was scattered and could not be gathered, now the qi veins that flowed in the depths of the soul began to have a pattern and direction, and they seemed to have a weak power.

For this result, Xia Gui is also quite satisfied.

No matter how terrifying this dream is, it will not scare him to death, but after waking up from the dream, the enhancement of the power of the soul is obvious. It's worth it!

He moved his hands and feet, and then landed lightly on the ground. Today was the day to distribute the soul essence, and he had to rush to the slave council hall to gather and distribute the soul essence with the group leaders.

Regarding the soul essence, Xia Gui naturally knew what it was.

If the Qi Condensing Pill can help cultivate True Qi, then the Soul Essence can help increase the strength of the Soul.

It's just that Qi Condensing Pills are common, while soul essences are relatively rare.

The production of soul essence is also quite cumbersome, and only highly skilled alchemists can make it. Moreover, it usually takes a lot of materials to refine a drop of soul essence.

The rarity and value of the Soul Essence is evident in the price. It is often necessary to pay more than ten times the price of the Qi Condensing Pill in exchange for a drop of soul essence. And this drop of soul essence is likely to be a diluted liquid.

Xia Gui didn't expect that the Jiuhou Villa that was slamming the door would distribute soul essence to the slave group leader, and it was estimated that it was also a soul essence that had been diluted many times.

But no matter what purpose Jiuhou Villa has for and what quality of soul essence it gives, in short, this thing is very good for Xia Gui.

He is now cultivating his soul technique, and with this thing, he can greatly increase his soul skill cultivation speed.

Therefore, he is very much looking forward to this soul purification distribution.

......

The Slave Council Hall is actually a small stone house.

Early in the morning, several of the slave group leaders came to the council chamber. Xia Gui saw at a glance Zhang Yun, Liu Xian, and the coquettish-looking A Rong who had a verbal conflict at the dinner table yesterday.

Zhang Yun and Liu Xian got very close.

They stood together, crossed their arms and looked at Xia Gui coldly, and from their malicious smiles, it could be seen that they were very much looking forward to seeing Xia Gui's ugly appearance.

Ah Rong was still standing quietly aside, her long hair blocking the left cheek, and her beautiful right cheek looked more and more delicate. In this filthy and poor slave group, she looks extraordinarily good.

There are also two young slaves who he has never seen, Xia Gui guessed that they were the leader of the Dan Medicine Workshop and the leader of the Back Kitchen Workshop.

The one with the cuff that always looks like there are some oil stains and stains should be the leader of the back kitchen team.

And the other one who looks quite conspicuous, young but slightly hunched over should be the leader of the Danyao Workshop. It was as if a certain spine had lost support, and his slightly rickety body revealed a sense of weakness. After the young camel saw Xia Gui, he actually beckoned in a friendly manner and said softly: "Here!"

Xia Gui glanced at him with some surprise, and found that this slave's facial features were actually quite upright, and there was a slight bookish smell, but the hunchback looked bad, which greatly affected his overall appearance.

Xia Gui also smiled politely at him and consciously walked into the hut.

"You are the new friend who succeeded No. 9, my name is Ah Biao, from the Dan Medicine Workshop, and I am No. 134. The camel boy said.

"My name is Turtle, number sixty-three. Xia Gui smiled.

Ah Biao touched his head, revealing a friendly and pure smile. He laughed like a young man who had not been deeply involved in the world, simple and friendly, and did not have the slightest frame of a slave group leader.

He exuded a faint smell of herbs and herbs, and it seemed that he often spent his time on alchemy medicine, which reminded Xia Gui of those alchemists in the Southern Wilderness Palace.

Xia Gui thought, this person seems to be quite friendly, maybe he can ask for some information.

"It's the first time I've participated in the distribution of soul essence, I don't know if there's anything to pay attention to?" Xia Gui asked.

Ah Biao thought for a while and said with a smile: "There's nothing to pay attention to, Master Qiao will personally test the strength of our soul power and distribute soul essence to us according to the strength of our soul power." Those with strong soul power can be allocated more soul essences, and those with weak soul power can only be allocated a small amount of essence. ”

"If the least amount of soul essence is allocated, will there be any consequences?" Xia Gui asked.

This is Xia Gui's biggest concern.

Judging from the information he heard from Cao Ming yesterday, the person with the weakest soul power would not have any good fruits to eat.

Ah Biao scratched his head and said, "If three times in a row are the least, then someone will be found to replace your place." But no one has been the least three times in a row, everyone is actually at the same level, so you don't have to worry about ......"

"Replace, then where will I go?" Xia Gui asked further.

Cao Ming didn't find an answer to this question, so Xia Gui took this opportunity to get to the bottom of it.

Unexpectedly, after this question was spoken, there was a sudden strange silence in the stone house.

The group leaders' expressions became inexplicably solemn, and they exchanged a secretive look, but they remained silent, as if this was an unpleasant topic.

Under Xia Gui's expectant gaze, Ah Biao said: "Maybe go back to be a slave, or you may go to the northern base to work as a coolie." I don't know much about the specifics. ”

Go to the North Base to work as a coolie......

Xia Gui couldn't help frowning, I heard that the northern base is a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones, and the living slaves feel that life is worse than death.

In this case, it is better to continue to stay in the Garden of Beasts and be an ordinary slave.

"Then is there any benefit to the person with the strongest soul power?" Xia Gui then asked.

Ah Biao was stunned, and before he knew how to answer, Zhang Yun's abrupt voice suddenly sounded, "Hey, this slave named Wang Ba, are you thinking too much? The first time you come to participate in the soul essence distribution, you must be the weakest person with soul power! Or let me give you a suggestion, later in the soul power strength test, you can abstain from doing it, and directly obediently claim the least bottle of soul essence, so as not to be embarrassed!"

After Zhang Yun finished speaking, Liu Xian also laughed sarcastically, "Brother Zhang is really polite, Liu admires!"

Xia Gui's face sank, and he was about to speak, but he heard Ah Biao retort in a low voice: "How do you know that he will be the weakest soul power? I don't think he's bad!"

That Zhang Yun didn't expect Ah Biao to help Xia Gui speak, so he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, clenched his fists tightly, and only heard the "clucking" sound of his nails. Zhang Yun said: "Ah Biao, this newcomer is not a good thing, don't get too close to him, be careful that I will beat you up in a while!"

Zhang Yun was originally the team leader of the forge, and the perennial forging made him develop a well-developed muscle, and now in the process of deliberately exerting himself, the muscles of his arms bulged, and a strong oppressive force and explosive force filled the entire stone house, and it could be seen that if he was in a bad mood, he would start beating people.

Ah Biao was thin and hunchbacked, and when he saw this posture, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and a pair of timid eyes involuntarily glanced at Ah Rong, who was quiet and speechless on the side, and there seemed to be a plea for help in his eyes.

Although Ah Rong did not participate in the conversation, she listened carefully to every word in the room. Now seeing Zhang Yun's warning and scary appearance, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said coldly: "Zhang Yun, don't provoke my brother if you're fine, be careful that I beat you." ”

Hearing that Ah Rong and Ah Biao were commensurate with sister and brother, Xia Gui was also stunned.

He looked at Ah Rong and Ah Biao again, and found that this slave beauty with the left half of her face was really similar to this hunched young man!

Ah Rong is very delicate, and Ah Biao is also good-looking.

It's just that although Ah Rong is a woman, she is full of awe-inspiring atmosphere, while Ah Biao is a man, but she is timid and has a somewhat timid temperament.

It is rare to find a pair of brothers and sisters who are both alive in the slave crowd, and they are also the leaders of the group. This means that these two people do have their own abilities.

"Sister Rong, where do I dare to provoke Brother Biao, I will scare and scare him. Our soul essence is all refined by him......" Zhang Yun smiled flatteringly at Ah Rong.

Xia Gui was shocked again, and his surprised gaze couldn't help but fall on Ah Biao's face.

"Soul essence, all refined by you?" he asked.

"Hehe, yes. Ah Biao touched his head, and smiled shyly with a little blushing.

Xia Gui was extremely shocked!

Refining soul essence is a very difficult task, which requires the refiner to fully understand and control the properties of refining medicines and materials. Without a certain level of refining and talent, it is difficult to refine the soul essence.

The most important thing is that only alchemists above the fourth order can have the possibility of cultivating soul essence.

It is not surprising that many third-order junior alchemists are proficient in refining elixirs like the "Qi Condensing Pill". However, refining soul essence requires strong soul power and skilled refining skills. This can only be done by a fourth-order alchemist.

And the fourth-order alchemist, that is definitely a talent that will be sought!

Soul essence is very important to cultivators, and the raw materials for a bottle of soul essence are very valuable. With the ability to refine soul essence, it is equivalent to a mobile small soul essence workshop, so alchemists above the fourth order are one of the resources that all small forces must compete for.

It's just that Xia Gui didn't expect that Ah Biao, who could refine the soul essence, would be a slave here!

He is fully qualified for an official position like an alchemy instructor and becomes a petty magnate, rather than a slave who silently works as a coolie at the bottom.

There are a lot of powerful people who covet the soul essence, and there must be a lot of forces that want to contaminate him. Even if there is a huge force like Jiuhou Villa, there is an absolute reason to treat him well and give him an official and a half-position.

Xia Gui looked at Ah Biao with puzzled eyes, and the latter smiled a little kindly and shyly, with a faint smell of books in his smile.

The air in the stone house was silent again, and the leaders of the slave groups were silent with their own thoughts. Until a loud "pop" footsteps outside the door broke the silence.
