One hundred and thirty-nine Mu Kui [Recommend three thousand two plus more]
The food here in the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion is more abundant than that in the sect. After all, he planted Linggu, and when the time comes, how much he will hand over will be up to the Miscellaneous Servants Mansion in the end. As long as they don't report too much every year, no one will pay attention to how they live in the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion.
Not to mention the outer disciples, even those miscellaneous servants, they can eat the meals made by Linggu from time to time. Everyone has benefited, and no one will say anything to the inside of the mountain gate.
Except for the previous time on Xiaoyun Peak, this is the first time that glutinous rice has eaten Linggu in the room, and these are completely free of contribution points and spirit stones, which can be regarded as a rare benefit. The sect wasn't completely unaware of this situation, but just pretended not to see it. Give some sweetness in this way, and those handymen will be able to work in such a barren place with peace of mind.
Some of those who came to the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion were old ones, and they had been in the mountain gate for a long time, and it was not the first time that they had been rotated to the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion. When I saw Linggu, I was all smiling. The other monks didn't understand this rule, but after a little surprise, they also silently took the food away.
The faces of the outer disciples who were assigned to the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion looked a little better, and they each took their own food, sat down on the side, and ate it. The miscellaneous servants seemed to be a little jealous of each other, and there was a distance between them, and they looked very distant.
Glutinous rice had offered some benefits to Hill before, and Hill saw that she was young, so he told her a few things to pay attention to, and asked her how she could be assigned to the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion. Nuomi himself was completely at a loss, so he could only shake his head and say again that he was ordered by his master himself. Hill chuckled.
"Just at your age, even if you are put in the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion, it is still an order from the peak master of Qingquan Peak, so it is not that you offended the peak master himself. How could it be that he was only assigned to the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion, and he would have lost his life a long time ago. ”
Qiu Ling's words were like a joke, but Nuomi remembered the waste pill that Qingming Zhenren sent to her at the beginning, and couldn't help but shudder.
"Well, if you don't want to mention the reason, forget it. But I think you're so young, you can't be like us, you were sent in because you killed your fellow disciples, right? ”
“…… Remnant ......"
Nuomi was stunned for a long time before she realized the meaning of the hills' words, and her eyes became a little straight when she looked up at the hills.
Hill looked at her and laughed, "Look at it, you look like this, I know it's definitely not." Be careful, there are a lot of grumpy people here. Especially after being assigned to this kind of place, we don't care when there is one less. Don't bump into people. ”
Looking at the way it is now, those outer disciples probably also know that the ones who have been assigned are not good people, and they are all very withdrawn. Glutinous rice also followed their example, found a seat in the corner, and ate quietly with food.
She doesn't hate this place. There wasn't so much work to do here, and she could spare more time to meditate and cultivate, as well as practice martial arts and open furnace alchemy. Especially now that she has her own room, it is even more convenient for her to open the furnace. It's just that she doesn't know if she can contact Ye Fan, and she doesn't know if there is any elixir here, and her eyes are still black for the time being.
Moreover, this place is not as convenient as in the sect, there is no scripture pavilion, and naturally there is no massive jade slip stored. Her studies had been interrupted all the way, and all she could read now was the only bit of information she had in hand.
There is no transmission in this miscellaneous servant's mansion, and the only thing that can bring all the monks together is the time to eat. It's very extravagant here, three meals a day, and all the outer disciples eat is Linggu. Those handymen also sat in the room and ate like the outer door, and the concept of hierarchy did not seem to be as strict as in the sect.
After eating, it's time for the free activity.
Nuomi had time to go back to the room and recite the mantra to summon Mu Kui.
Mu Kui was still silent, and as soon as she finished reciting the mantra, she appeared in front of her, making her breathe a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Mu Kui was no longer by her side.
"Do you have something to say to me, senior brother?"
Nuomi pulled Mu Kui's sleeve and asked in a low voice.
Mu Kui shook his head slowly. When he moves, he always gives people a very heavy feeling. It's as if his flesh has the weight of metal, and every time he moves, it's very stiff, as if the spirit machine is rotating. But Nuomi had seen Mu Kui block Tian Tian's flying sword before, his movements seemed to be very slow, but he was very precise, and the time was just right, and he could completely control the flying sword.
Nuomi sighed, and pulled Mu Kui's sleeve again, "You sit." ”
This time, Mu Kui didn't even shake his head, just stood silently.
Although Ye Fan said that Mu Kui is just a wood spirit that is only made, Nuomi always treats Mu Kui as a human being. Probably because she had seen Mu Kui's hands bleeding, so subconsciously, Nuomi always imagined Mu Kui as a living life like her.
Looking back, it seemed that she had never had the opportunity to look at Mu Kui so seriously. In the past, Mu Kui was called out, all in order to ask him to help pass the word to Ye Fan. And at that time, she had been avoiding the eyes of others to open the furnace for alchemy, for fear that Mu Kui and the Dan furnace would be discovered, so every time she summoned Mu Kui out, she was in a hurry, and she didn't even remember what Mu Kui looked like.
She suddenly became curious about what this wood spirit that had been hiding beside her was like.
After Ye Fan talked about the wood spirit before, she also went to look up the relevant information of the wood spirit. It is said that the wood spirit is a creature with no autonomous feelings, which is very similar to the machine spirit. They are all saved only to help their masters. But there are exceptions to everything. Because some machine spirits absorb too much soul element, the magic weapon itself becomes more powerful than the master, and when the master can no longer suppress the machine spirit, the machine spirit may have abnormal changes.
It's like the demon beast fairy grass suddenly opened up one day and had spiritual wisdom.
And the wood spirit seems to have the same situation. It's just that the mutation of the wood spirit is not necessarily related to the absorption of the soul element. There used to be very powerful wood spirits that did not have spiritual intelligence, and there were also wooden spirits that already had spiritual intelligence like human monks when they were at a low level, and they could not be generalized.
Nuomi cautiously reached out and touched Mu Kui's hand.
Mu Kui's hand was not as warm and pliable as she had thought, and as soon as she touched it, she knew that it was really just wood. It's not warm, it's hard, and it has the same touch as the thunderwood she used when she opened the furnace.
It was not so much a pair of hands, but a magic weapon forged from wood, with a faint aura circulating on it, very similar to Nuomi's own whip. It seems that as long as this arm is removed, it can be directly used as a spirit hammer.
"Huh...... It's really wood. Glutinous rice's eyes widened in surprise.
She always thought that Mu Kui should be like her, flesh and blood, and then she knew that the other party was really just a piece of wood, and the other Mu Kui itself was a giant magic weapon forged from spirit wood. She thought about it, dragged a small stool and moved it to Mu Kui, stepped on the stool, and reached out to touch Mu Kui's face. Mu Kui stood bent over, his arms strong, but also long, hanging down all the way.
He didn't stand up completely straight, but he was very tall, and he stepped on the small stool, and he had to stand on tiptoe slightly to reach in front of him. Glutinous rice can't tell if he looks good or not, he just thinks that Mu Kui doesn't look very much like a human, and when he looks at it, he is more similar to a demon beast. His face sank like water, completely expressionless.
Although this expressionless face is a little stiff, it does not make people feel frightened like the monks that Nuomi saw during her training. The monk's face was made of ice, exuding a chilling coldness, as if he had sealed his feelings. Mu Kui just gave people a clumsy feeling, as if he wasn't emotionless, but he didn't know how to make expressions to express it.
However, maybe it's just because Mu Kui is just a piece of wood, he has no feelings, and he can't make expressions.
Mu Kui was very quiet, and when he was not given orders, he just stood silently, as if he were a wooden pillar—and indeed there was no essential difference between him and the wooden pillar. Mu Kui's face was also a hard wood, and Nuomi specially reached out to probe in front of him, and found that he didn't need to breathe at all.
The face is wooden, the neck is wooden, and even the chest is wooden. Nuomi pressed her hand in front of Mu Kui's sturdy chest, but there was no feeling of heart beating in her chest through her clothes. However, near the lower abdomen, which is probably the location of the dantian, a faint wave of aura can be felt. And in the center of that fluctuation, there was a small force beating gently, as if it were Mu Kui's heart.
"It's completely different from me......"
Nuomi took Mu Kui's hand again, but Mu Kui ignored her completely. In the final analysis, she is not Mu Kui's master, even if she gives any order, Mu Kui will probably only ignore it. She didn't know what Ye Fan's order to Mu Kui was, and she couldn't get a response after saying a few times to let Mu Kui sit down, so she had to give up.
Originally, after she called Mu Kui out, she either took it back quickly or asked him to report to Ye Fan. This time, she thought about it, and finally put down the hand that was holding the embroidery. It doesn't seem bad to let Mu Kui stay outside like this. I don't know if Mu Kui has ever seen the moonlight outside.
Pushing open the window from her room and looking out of the window, she could see the bright moonlight. Since she joined the sect, she hadn't seen such a gentle moonlight for a long time. Even during the time when I went down the mountain, I couldn't see the full moon at night. Now, let Mu Kui accompany her to see the moon. (To be continued.)
