Nuomi originally stored some spirit stones that were exchanged for the contribution points of the mountain gate, and when he was in the Miscellaneous Servant Mansion before, he did a lot of alchemy work because of Xiao Jingyan's relationship, and secretly saved a lot of spirit stones, so he didn't have to worry about living in this Xianyi City for the time being.

She quietly followed behind Xiao Jingyan, not so much thinking about how to find a job so that she could settle down in this Xianyi City, but just observing what kind of environment it was in this Xianyi City.

With the spirit stones they had earned in the Miscellaneous Servants' Mansion before, there was no need to find any work in this Xianyi City now. Even if Nuomi is as cautious as he is, he understands that he should work hard to cultivate while he has a generous spirit stone in his hand.

Even if you want to find a job, after you improve your cultivation level, you can find a better job.

Xiao Jingyan led the glutinous rice around in front of the shops built by those sects and big families, and there was no need to ask, the rules for hiring monks were already clearly written in front of those shops.

A monk who has just entered the enlightenment period is like a miscellaneous servant on the top of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and what he does can only be some underneath work, so naturally it is impossible to get much compensation. Nuo Mi counted with his fingers, and found that if he stayed in Xianyi City to do things, the spirit stones that the monks who had just entered the enlightenment period would only earn enough spirit stones every month to live, and there was no way to take out the extra spirit stones for cultivation.

This was if they were willing to share a room with another monk. If you want to rent a room by yourself, just the little spirit stone you earn every month in the shop is estimated to be not enough to live.

But as long as the level of cultivation is raised, the treatment will also be improved. However, not all shops are willing to hire high-ranking monks. Some shops are small and don't have much to do, so it is enough to hire a low-level monk who has just entered the enlightenment period, so they simply stop recruiting higher-level monks. Of course, there are also some shops with large families, which specify that they only recruit monks who are above the fourth floor of the contemplation period.

A little monk of Nuomi's age was still a little eye-catching when he was outside, but after he blended into Xianyi City, he didn't look so different anymore. There are many sect cultivators in this Xianyi City, and there are occasionally young monks of the same age as Nuomi on the road and in the shop.

It is said that in this Xianyi City, there were not so many little monks before, but the demon cultivator from the spirit and demon world spoke out, saying that he was looking for a little female cultivator who was about ten years old, so this Xianyi City soon became a place where little monks gathered.

Not only female cultivators of the same age, but even male cultivators or those who are not the right age, who don't want to get in front of the great power to ask for a chance.

On the contrary, glutinous rice does not have such an idea. Since she knew that the demon cultivator was Jiao Suqing, she just wanted to stay away. Her current cultivation has only improved a little, and now she sees Jiao Suqing, how embarrassing it must be.

When Xiao Jingyan jokingly asked her to meet the demon cultivator, Nuomi shook her head in fright and refused. Thanks to Xiao Jingyan, he was not very serious, but he just said this casually, and he didn't find anything unusual about glutinous rice in this matter.

Xianyi City was really unbelievably big, and the two of them only circled around a small half before they found that the sky had already darkened. Of course, this is because the glutinous rice is not going very fast, but it can still be seen that this Xianyi City is really huge.

The two casually found a place to eat something, Xiao Jingyan was silent for a while, and then said to Nuomi, "What are you going to do?" I'm thinking that I want to live in this Xianyi City first, find a lighter job, and cultivate here for a while, and I won't go out for a while. ”

Nuomi followed Xiao Jingyan around for a long time, and she actually had an idea in her heart. After hearing Xiao Jingyan say this, he also nodded, and said in a low voice, "I also plan to settle down first." But maybe not for a while. My cultivation is not very high, so let's cultivate first and then see. ”

Xiao Jingyan nodded and didn't ask any further.

Both of them tacitly did not mention where to find a place to live in this Xianyi City, but when they were parting, both of them hesitated, and then Nuomi timidly spoke, saying, "In the future...... That one...... Do you use the note paper to make contact? ”

Xiao Jingyan thought about it and felt that if they wanted to get in touch, they could only use this method. They weren't close enough to live together, but they weren't two people who were complete strangers. Although he didn't want to live with Nuomi, he really didn't want to lose contact with Nuomi.

Glutinous rice probably has the same idea.

Even if they had returned to Qingquan Peak together before, and had lived together in those scattered cultivators for so long, they were not truly dependent on each other. Nuomi hid a lot of things from Xiao Jingyan, such as Jiao Suqing's matter, and Lu Leopard's soul element.

It is impossible for Xiao Jingyan to confess everything about himself to Nuomi. Until now, he hadn't told Nuomi about the situation when he was in the Mountain Gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, let alone the more secretive reasons. No matter how close they were, there was still a barrier in the middle, so that neither of them was willing to take another step forward, but carefully maintained a distance.

Originally, when he was in that village, Lu Zong also joked with Xiao Jingyan and asked him, "Why didn't you get mixed up with the little girl." It's really rare for a little nun like her to be seen. More than ten years, it's not much of a gap for us. You are in the same door as her, why didn't the master get you together. ”

Lu Zong smiled a little ambiguously at that time, and Xiao Jingyan could only use a very ambiguous attitude to avoid this problem.

Xiao Jingyan himself had thought about this question in private, but found that he couldn't find the answer at all. When he first met Nuomi, he often teased Nuomi, and felt that such a little girl was really cute. But later, after the two gradually became acquainted, he became a little estranged from glutinous rice.

Especially later, the more he knew that Nuomi was a talented, intelligent and talented, maybe the spiritual root qualifications were incomparable to others, and he knew how to open the furnace for alchemy, and his cultivation in martial arts and immortal arts was not weak at all, Xiao Jingyan subconsciously distanced himself from Nuomi.

Nuomi also felt the sense of distance between the two of them, and once thought about getting closer in a daze. But as soon as she got a little closer, Xiao Jingyan stepped back a few points. Nuomi's temperament is quite sensitive, and after discovering Xiao Jingyan's dodge, she quietly stopped and no longer leaned towards Xiao Jingyan.

Xiao Jingyan himself also felt very confused, obviously at the beginning, when he knew that glutinous rice could be opened for alchemy, he also regarded glutinous rice as a cash cow. Although he doesn't squeeze glutinous rice like Mo Boyi, he has always wanted to have a good relationship with glutinous rice. Even, after staying in the immortal cultivation world where female cultivators are scarce for a long time, I occasionally feel a little emotional, and I don't think about glutinous rice from that angle like those scattered cultivators.

Probably after the glutinous rice was brought back to the mountain gate, Xiao Jingyan's thoughts gradually changed.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that he was actually very jealous and unconfident, for fear of being compared to such a small female cultivator as Nuomi. It had been fifteen years since he stepped into this immortal cultivation realm. The time he has been in contact with cultivation has been longer than that of Nuomi's short life. But he didn't think he was better than glutinous rice.

Although Xiao Jingyan's current cultivation is indeed higher than that of glutinous rice, it is only because he is much older than glutinous rice.

When he was in the village of casual cultivation, Xiao Jingyan saw glutinous rice surrounded by casual cultivation every day and sincerely flattered him, but he couldn't feel much jealousy. I just feel a little powerless, and even in his heart, I feel that that is what it should be. Since glutinous rice has such talent, it is absolutely impossible to be completely hidden.

He probably ...... There is no way to go together with glutinous rice.

When he was in the Miscellaneous Servant's Mansion, Xiao Jingyan always felt that glutinous rice was the same as him, they were all abandoned by the mountain gate, and they could keep warm by relying on each other.

Then he realized that he was completely wrong.

Glutinous rice is not even what he thought it was, just slightly better than him, but much better. That kind of gap is something that Xiao Jingyan still can't figure out, which makes him feel a sense of powerlessness.

Even if he stands with Nuomi, one day he will not be able to catch up with Nuomi. Although he didn't explicitly inquire about the spiritual root of glutinous rice, it was not because he was too scared.

Even if he never asked, he felt that in the long days ahead, the cultivation of glutinous rice would gradually surpass him, to a height he had never imagined. If he still had to follow Nuomi in vain at that time, it would be too ugly.

Originally, his idea was probably wrong, he was not the same person at all as Nuomi.

Xiao Jingyan looked down at Nuomi's bright eyes, and finally held back a sigh, nodded, and turned around to blend in with the flow of people. This is just a very simple turn, but Xiao Jingyan has already decided that he will never take the initiative to contact Nuomi again.

Instead of waiting for Nuomi to surpass him and completely abandon him, it is better for him to stay away now, but he can still have a little dignity.

If he only regarded glutinous rice as a little nun who could be used, he would not be so bored now. Even he couldn't tell when this kind of mind changed. (To be continued.)
