Chapter 5: Entering the Eastern Sect, Knowing the Spirit.

Within a few days, Wen Shu was sent to Dongzong Chen's home by the couple who temporarily adopted her. It was the government that agreed after following up on it.

Of course, the government wants to lose one of the burdens, and there is not much left of An Gutang's funds, which are already harsh, of course, there are fewer children, so as to avoid the East Window incident.

The government has spoken, and the Chen government is not good not to give some face.

As soon as Wen Shu arrived, she was handed over to an old woman, and the old lady exchanged a few words with the couple and took her in.

"Girl, what's your name?"

Gu Wenshu. ”

From now on, you will be called Xiaohua. ”

"Ah...... "What kind of fairy name is this?"

Wen Shu refused: "Mama, can I just call Ashu?"

"When you enter the house and become a maid, how can you do whatever you want? When a maid comes in, she has to have a maid name. ”

"Mama, isn't Auntie also quite like the maid's name" Wen Shu said, her watery eyes blinked, looking pitiful, "What if my father and mother come to me in the future and can't find me." ”

Mama didn't pay attention to her: "This girl...... In the future, I will be called Chang Mama. ”

"Hmm."

Follow Mama Chang to the inner courtyard.

The big family is really a big family, and there is no way to compare it with the thatched house of Wen Shu's family. Not only is the area large, but each room is "carved" very exquisitely, the bluestone slabs in the courtyard, all kinds of flowers, and the fence along the corridor all reveal a kind of luxury, but they do not lose the tranquility and elegance of the cultivation sect.

Mama Chang brought Wen Shu to the maid's residence, although it was simple, but for Wen Shu, it was already very good to have a place to live.

Mama Chang told Wen Shu to let her start working again tomorrow. Stay in the house today and don't run around. In fact, Mama Chang has been a subordinate in the house for so many years, and it is common for her to bully newcomers. How much knowledge can an old mother have, so there is no awareness of taking care of newcomers and giving some kindness. The old man bullies the new, and it's always been like this, and that's what she did.

It's just that Wen Shu is still young, only eight years old. Although she is a bully newcomer, she is so small and has no strength, and her work is not neat, how much work can she share with herself? If you have that time, you might as well hurry up and get the job done.

Wen Shu is not a quiet person, after Mama Chang left, she changed the maid's clothes, she always wanted to go out and have a look, she had never seen such a big house, but when she arrived in a new place, she still didn't dare.

Just when Wen Shu was struggling with whether to go out, there was some noise outside the door.

Wen Shu opened the crack in the door and looked out.

It's a little girl, it should be smaller than Wen Shu, she picked up stones from the ground and threw them around, making a bang.

Seeing that she was not dressed like a maid, she was dressed in pink, but like a young lady, but how could the young lady come to this person's backyard.

However, this gave Wen Shu an excuse - it wasn't that she wanted to go out, it was someone outside who threw stones, and she stepped forward to stop it.

Hee-hee-hee.

Wen Shu pushed open the door and shouted to the little girl, "What are you doing?" ”

The little girl turned around, her face was unhappy, and her little eyes stared: "Who are you?" How come I haven't seen you. ”

"I'm new here, what about you?"

"New here? A working maid? But the youngest sister I saw was also twelve years old. The little girl wondered.

Wen Shu followed her and said, "Mama Chang asked me to start working tomorrow." Then he asked, "Are you the lady of this house?" Your clothes look so good. ”

"Hmm...... I'm not. The little girl suddenly became a little depressed and lowered her head.

"Didn't you say that the youngest maid was also twelve years old? So who are you? ”

"I won't tell you." With that, he ran out of the courtyard of the next man.

Wen Shu hurriedly followed, "Hey-wait for me!" ”

Out of the yard.

"What are you doing with me?"

"I just arrived, no one to play with me, I'm bored to death, where are you going, take me with you!"

"No, the palace master is studying at the academy now, I didn't want to go and ran out, and now I have to go back. Don't tell anyone about it. ”

"Take me with you!"

"No, someone will find out!"

came and went, and in the end the two went together.

Mr. Reading walked up and down the alley with a book, and the little girl seemed to be unable to get in, and it was terrible to be found. In addition to the palace master she said, there are other young masters and young ladies inside. On either side of the table sat the waiting maids and maids.

"Why are you a maid, but you are better dressed than us?" Wen Shu asked in a low voice.

"Because of the concubine of the palace master...... Be quiet. ”

Seeing that she couldn't get in, the little girl sneaked away with Wen Shu.

"Your palace master is a concubine, so you can wear such good clothes?"

"It's not...... Actually, I'm the stand-in for the palace master, so I wear something similar to the palace master. ”

"Stand-in?"

"It is to die for the palace master at a critical juncture...... I don't want to be her stand-in at all! But I couldn't help it, I was sold by my father and mother when I was very young. I hate her...... Why should I die for her! ”

"No, the palace master stays in the house every day, nothing will happen, and neither will you. You still have me, and I will protect you in the future. Wen Shu was serious, and her eyes slipped away. She wanted to help her from the bottom of her heart, and this was the first friend she had made here.

"You're so nice, though I know you can't help me at all."

The two little girls knew each other and exchanged names, the girl's name was Lian Bingyue, everyone called her Xiaoqian since she was a child, she was the same age as Wen Shu, they were both eight years old, and the palace master was six years old this year. Wen Shu told her the name "Gu Wenshu", so she didn't want to call her Xiaohua. You can't just name a child just because they're stupid.

From Xiao Qian's mouth, Wen Shu learned about this world. After all, she was born in a commoner, and her parents have always had enough to eat and drink in their mouths, and her brother often said that he cultivated spirit beasts, his eyes were full of longing, but this didn't make Wen Shu know how to understand this world.

The continent they live in is called the Spiritual Continent, and in the middle of the continent is a supernatural forest. There are four sects in the east, west, north and south of the forest, namely the Chen clan of the East Sect, the Wang clan of the South Sect, the Zhang clan of the West Sect, and the Gao clan of the North Sect. They are the Dongzong in the east, and now they are also the maids of the Chen family's mansion.

Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the four sects once fought against each other for the sake of a single family, but the age is long, I don't know if it is true, and there are only some folk legends. In recent decades, there have been no large-scale crusades, only secret battles, with occasional assassinations of high school or potential juniors to weaken the opponent.

Every cultivator has spiritual power in his body, and there is no level of spiritual power, only by using spiritual power to test the other party, can you know the depth of the other party's spiritual power.

There are many rare spirit beasts in the spirit forest, and only after hunting the spirit can they absorb the spiritual power of the spirit beasts, which is of great benefit to cultivation. And the bones of spirit animals are good materials, which can be used to make weapons or some handicrafts, some of which are very lethal, some are highly toxic, and some have healing effects.

There are few monks among the common people, not only because they are forced by life and have no time to cultivate, but also because they must hunt spirits to reach a higher realm, and ordinary people can't do it without good weapons.

They are in Chen Zong's backyard, the monks on the left are training, the craftsmen on the right are making weapons, the middle courtyard is making pills, and the front yard is welcoming guests.
