"That's all there is to it. Why don't you recruit more people in the sect? Not to mention the disciples, even the doormen are only about twenty. Bai Tian was puzzled, I really didn't understand what those people were thinking.

"The head of the sect wants to expand the sect, but the deputy head always says that the best choice is made."

"Cut, who doesn't know what the deputy head thinks. Just look at how much money the steward stuffed into him! "He doesn't know what the deputy head is?

He Li immediately covered his mouth, looked outside the courtyard in horror, and made sure that no one said to Bai Tian: "If others hear it, we won't be able to eat and walk around!" ”

Bai Tian instantly showed a look of horror on his face, and warned Yan Ning, who was looking at them stupidly: "Do you know that you talk less and do more things here?" ”

Yan Ning hurriedly nodded to indicate that he understood.

"What are you doing here? Hurry up and get to work! A rough voice suddenly sounded, causing Bai Tian to scream in fright.

"What are you shouting? Don't think you don't have to work that way! "A man appeared at the door—a steward!

"Let's go." He Li replied, pulling Bai Tian, who had not yet recovered his senses, and hurriedly walked away.

"And you, don't forget to fill those tanks with water tomorrow morning!" The steward pointed at Yan Ning and said.

Yan Ning hurriedly nodded in response. The steward swaggered away, quite a villain.

When he left completely, Yan Ning was still shocked. I touched my chest, and it was throbbing violently. It's really unusual! No wonder Bai Tian said to talk less and do more. I don't know if he heard that just now, probably not, right?

Walking to the big vat that could fit more than a dozen of his own, Yan Ning really didn't know what to do.

I saw that there were two wooden barrels in the corner of the wall and a flat pole, which should be used to carry water. Yan Ning tried to provoke. It's still an empty bucket, and his shoulders hurt, not to mention the water in it.

Now that it's getting dark, it looks like I'm going to have to fetch water now, or don't expect this big vat to fill it with water tomorrow. Carrying two empty buckets, Yan Ning staggered down the mountain to the edge of the stream. Only dared to hit a small half bucket of water, Yan Ning picked it up with difficulty. The mountain road was already rough, and by the time we reached the backyard, there was not much water left in the barrel. I fell on the road before, and now the skin is worn out at the knee, and there are still beads of blood oozing out!

Holding the wooden bucket and pouring the water into it, the bottom of the bucket is not even covered! After a few times, Yan Ning was so tired that he was about to lie down, and his shoulders were swollen and high, and he couldn't touch them.

Fortunately, Bai Tian and the others came back to help them carry water together. But it's not easy to do with only two barrels, right?

In the end, he and Li said yes, he and Bai Tian helped him fill eight cylinders, and the remaining two cylinders could only rely on Yan Ning himself. Because they still have to rest, and the next day they have a lot of things to do.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and there is only the howling wind and the occasional chirping of birds in the mountains and forests. Yan Ning carried the burden, tired and panting, sweating profusely and climbed up, and finally almost dragged the bucket up.

The first rays of sunlight in the morning hit Yan Ning's face, which was almost collapsed, and the birds in the forest began to move.

Chirping, cooing, excited. Yan Ning had no choice but to continue to move up. Pour the last bit of water in the bucket into the last tank, and it's finally full! Yan Ning didn't want to care about anything else, so he threw the bucket and ran directly to the empty room and fell asleep on the bed.

The steward came to see it in the morning, and he was a little surprised to see that it was all full, but he didn't expect this little hairy boy to really fill it all. However, when he saw the wooden barrels and flat poles thrown on the ground, anger immediately appeared on his face. rushed to Yan Ning's door, but in the end he didn't push the door open. snorted secretly: I spared him this time, and others in the province said that he was harsh. Snorted, and left.

Yan Ning didn't know what was going on outside, so he just covered his head and slept in the dark. Bai Tian and the others came back to see that he was still sleeping, so they didn't bother him, but they just brought back a few steamed buns from the lobby and put them at the head of his bed and left.

It wasn't until sunset that Yan Ning woke up from his sleep. Turning over and pulling it to his shoulder, the pain made him wake up instantly. Sitting up, my head was still a little dizzy, and I looked around and found a few steamed buns at the head of the bed. As soon as I guessed, I knew that they brought it to me, and when I touched my stomach, I was really hungry and pressed my chest against my back. Just as he wanted to pick up the steamed buns, the pain in his shoulder made him dare not move. But you can't just watch and not eat, right? In the end, I endured the pain and ate the steamed buns. Beads of sweat the size of beans keep falling from his forehead, and he has to suffer this sin when he eats!

Now that he had finished eating, Yan Ning planned to go out for a walk.

As soon as he landed, his legs went weak and he fell to the ground. Shirata and Kazuri who came in looked at it squarely.

"What's wrong with you?" Bai Tian hurriedly ran to help him up.

"I've slept too much." Yan Ning didn't want to say that it was because he kept going up and down the mountain all night last night. The legs are estimated to be half swollen and thick, but fortunately, the pants I wore were loose and I couldn't see it.

Bai Tian touched Yan Ning's head distressedly.

"It's hard for you! Blame you, Brother Bai, I'm useless! ”

"How so? Brother Bai and Uncle He also helped me fill eight large water tanks! Yan Ning replied disapprovingly.

Hearing Yan Ning call himself and his uncle, he raised his eyebrows and white-eyed Bai Tian, it is estimated that this dead fat man made it again!

"Hey!" Looking at Yan Ning looking at himself gratefully, Bai Tian felt ashamed. He and Heli also have a lot of things to do, how can they help them all?

He Li knew what Bai Tian was thinking, and said with a secret sigh: "Let's hurry up and fetch water!" ”

"Okay" Bai Tian got up and told Yan Ning to rest for a while before leaving with Heli.

In the middle of the night, the two dragged their tired bodies back, and it was Yan Ning's turn.

Even though the pain was unbearable, Yan Ning still forced himself to carry the burden and move back and forth between the mountains. As long as this stage endures it, it will be comfortable later.

After half a month, I really got used to it!

The mountain springs tinkle and insects chirp one after another. Sitting by the stream, Yan Ning held the pendant in his hand and looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky. Buckets filled with water sit quietly next to them.

"When will I be able to cultivate immortals?" Yan Ning muttered to himself.

Cultivating immortals now seemed to be far away from him. In that case, when will he be able to resurrect his mother? Also, he still wants to find his father, can he find him with only the pendant?

Yan Ning was full of worry and looked at the sky blankly.

It had been delayed for a long time, Yan Ning hurriedly got up, patted the dust on his buttocks and was about to pick up the bucket. But as soon as he picked it up, he accidentally caught a glimpse of a person on the boulder on the top of the mountain.

Yan Ning put down his pole and looked there.

It can be vaguely seen that the person is wearing a Taoist robe, but he does not look like a person in the sect. Sit cross-legged on a boulder, immovable. Gradually, the starlight could be seen shining towards him, and a faint halo enveloped his body.

Yan Ning was shocked by this scene and couldn't take his eyes off it for a long time. It wasn't until the east turned white and the starlight was covered that the man moved, seemed to glance in the direction of Yan Ning, and quickly got up. A rainbow flashed, and the man was gone.

It took a long time for Yan Ning to react, and he was so shocked that he hurriedly picked up the water and rushed to the mountain.

"Why can't you do this well!" The steward glared angrily at Yan Ning.

Yan Ning lowered his head and didn't dare to make a sound, only blaming himself for looking at the person on the boulder for delaying the hour.

Seeing him like this, the steward scolded again and left.

There are many other doormen in the courtyard, and they continue to do their own things after seeing the excitement. Yan Ning glanced at them lightly, wasn't everyone in the village like this before?
