Chapter 37 First acquaintance with Danmen

More than half a month has passed since Danmen announced the results of the admission of Dantong, and Mingyue has never received a notice to go to Danmen to serve, nor has she seen Danmen Elder Feng Qingcheng again, I heard that he has been in retreat and cultivation recently.

Mingyue saw Nalan Meidai and Jiang Yiyi several times, and both of them showed hostile expressions towards her, Jiang Yiyi was even more arrogant with her nose facing the sky, and Mingyue didn't bother to pay attention to it.

In the pill class that afternoon, Mingyue received a booklet from Danmen, she and Mu Xiaotian each had a copy, and all the students in the pill class looked at them with envy, jealousy, and hatred. Although there are no formal elders in Danmen now, it is not as good as before, but because of the special status of Danmen, Danmen is still the most popular elder gate among all the elder gates, and no matter how many people squeeze their heads, they can't get in.

The pamphlet has very detailed rules on the behavior of Dantong's assistants in Danmen. For example, after receiving the notice from Danmen, you must arrive at the Danmen Hall half an hour in advance; All the things in the Danmen are not allowed to be taken out, such as herbs, pills, or any other things that are not the person's own; Do not refuse the reasonable request of the alchemist without authorization; Do not make loud noises during the Danmen assistantship; Do not use Danmen medicinal materials to do your own things privately; You must obey the unified arrangement of Danmen, wait, wait, Mingyue knows it one by one, so as not to make mistakes when the time comes.

A few days later, a Danmen disciple came over to take Mingyue and Mu Xiaotian to report to the Danmen Hall.

"In Xia Luo Jiajin, he is a disciple of the outer sect of Danmen, and he is responsible for the guidance and pick-up of the assistant of Danmen Dantong, the two junior brothers and sisters can call me Senior Brother Luo, and if you don't understand anything, you can ask me at any time." Danmen disciple Luo Jiajin is dark, tall and thin, in his thirties, and he is very gentle.

After Luo Jiajin's introduction, Mingyue realized that Danmen was originally located on a certain hill behind the side of Shushan Immortal Academy, and it was only possible to reach it by flying from the mountain behind Shushan Immortal Academy or taking a transmission array.

Mingyue Mu Xiaotian didn't know how to fly with his sword, so Luo Jiajin opened the transmission formation and teleported the two to the gate of Danmen.

Mingyue and Mu Xiaotian came to the gate of Danmen and noticed that there was a huge plaque hanging on the main hall of Danmen, with the word "Danmen" written on it.

The mountain where Danmen is located is actually one of the thousands of mountains in Shu Mountain, a huge grand building is built along the mountain, standing at the door and there is no end in sight, during which the huge ancient wood forest is covered, it looks magnificent and solemn.

Luo Jiajin carefully explained the matters that the two of them should pay attention to when acting in the Danmen, and specially explained: "The junior brothers and sisters are still young, listen to and do more in everything, and don't conflict with the inner disciples, otherwise they will face the consequences of being removed from the Danmen and even the Shushan Xianmen." ”

Mingyue and Mu Xiaotian nodded again and again. Luo Jiajin sent the two to the Danmen Hall before leaving, and someone in the hall had already come to guide them.

The two of them walked inward along the winding bluestone path, and led the two into a huge courtyard with many extremely tall houses.

Mingyue looked around suspiciously, and found that there were many tall houses here, and through the window, Mingyue found that there were huge wooden shelves with compartments inside, and the shelves were full of wooden boxes, and all kinds of herbal fragrances were mixed together and wafted out of the windows. Mingyue noticed that there were detailed label notes on the outside of each wooden box, and she also saw a lot of rare medicinal herbs. It turned out that this was the herb storehouse of Danmen.

"You two are Danmen's new Dantong?" A majestic voice interrupted Mingyue's contemplation, Mingyue looked up and saw that there was a man in his forties standing not far away, the man had a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, his face was arrogant and serious, and his tone was quite cold, he was looking Mingyue up and down with a very critical gaze, and his eyes were very disdainful and contemptuous.

"When you see Senior Brother Sun Qinglai, the head of the Danmen, still don't you salute?" Behind the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked man, there were two teenagers dressed as children in front of him, and scolded Mingyue and Mu Xiaotian.

"Mingyue (Mu Xiaotian) has seen Senior Brother Sun." Mingyue and Mu Xiaotian saluted respectfully to Sun Qinglai.

"Senior Brother Mu's exam results are very good, and he works hard in Danmen." Sun Qinglai looked Mu Xiaotian up and down, his critical eyes showed appreciation, and he instructed one of the boys: "Laifu, you take Senior Brother Mu to the pill warehouse to familiarize yourself with the pill." The boy named Laifu took Mu Xiaotian and walked in the other direction.

Sun Qinglai looked at Mingyue with an extremely critical gaze for a long time, and then said disdainfully: "My Danmen has not recruited female disciples since ancient times, and you just come to do chores, but don't want to enter my Danmen as an inner disciple." Sun Qinglai snorted disdainfully and said, "Danmen is not a place where cats and dogs can come at will. ”

Mingyue was not very happy to hear this, and said disapprovingly: "Senior Brother Sun, Mingyue is not a cat or a dog, she was admitted to Danmen by virtue of her exam results. ”

The boy who stayed behind scolded Mingyue: "Chief Manager Sun is a disciple of the inner sect of the Danmen, and he is also a fourth-level Dan master, you little Dan Tong don't be presumptuous!" ”

"Hmph, a little Dan Tong is still 108,000 miles away from the inner disciple." Sun Qinglai reprimanded even more disdainfully, and instructed the boy: "Come to Wang, you can assign her something to do casually." ”

Mingyue felt aggrieved in her heart, knowing that it was useless to talk to this kind of person, so she lowered her head and was silent.

Laiwang threw over a few rags and a wooden barrel, and brought a ladder from the corner of the wall, and instructed Mingyue: "You scrub the shelves where medicinal herbs are placed in these warehouses, there is well water in the yard, you need to wipe it with a semi-damp rag first, and then wipe it with a dry rag." Always be careful when moving wooden boxes for herbs so that they don't break them. ”

Mingyue took Dantong's words to heart, and after Dantong Laiwang and Manager Sun left, she began to work.

Mingyue first went to the well in the courtyard to fetch a bucket of water, took two more rags, and began to climb up and down the ground to wipe the shelves of medicinal herbs.

The herb shelves are five floors high, reaching the roof, which is five or six meters high, and the boxes must be moved before the shelves can be scrubbed. The upper two shelves are very high, and Mingyue is relatively petite, so it is very difficult to wipe.

Sun Qinglai sat down at the table in the corner of the storeroom, and a pair of small triangular eyes glanced at Mingyue from time to time. Dantong Laifu and Laiwang rushed to serve tea and pour water for Sun Qinglai, pinched his shoulders and beat his back, which made Sun Qinglai very useful.

Sun Qinglai stared coldly at the busy figure of the girl, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the scene of the previous days couldn't help but appear in his mind.

That day, Sun Qinglai was sitting in the warehouse napping, and suddenly saw a stunning young and cold beauty standing not far away looking at him condescendingly. Sun Qinglai woke up in shock.

"Who are you?" Sun Qinglai stood up and asked sharply.

The cold-faced beautiful girl didn't speak, but just took out an emerald green jade pendant to show him. The jade pendant is carved with a flying dragon, and the word "Nalan" is engraved underneath.

Sun Qinglai immediately recognized the jade pendant as a royal token of the Turkic Empire, because he was a native of the Turkic Empire, and he was also named the "Divine Pill Elder" of the Turkic Empire by the emperor of the Turkic Empire, and his younger brother Sun Qingdong was one of the top protector generals of the Turkic Empire. Last year, he got a secret letter from his younger brother Sun Qingdong, the most favored princess of the Turkic Empire, Princess Nalan Meidai, is about to enter Shushan Xiuxian Academy to study, it is said that Princess Nalan Meidai is also the cousin of Feng Qicheng, and her status is very noble, so he has the opportunity to take care of him.

Sun Qinglai's face was immediately full of smiles, and he personally poured tea for Princess Nalan Meidai: "Princess Nalan is really shining when she comes to the cold house!" ”

Nalan Meidai smiled arrogantly, bright and beautiful, she said coldly: "Great Elder Shendan, this princess is here today, there is something ......to worry about" The two talked for a long time, and Princess Nalan left satisfied.

Sun Qinglai took a sip of fragrant tea, smiled contemptuously, and said in his heart: "Princess Nalan's request is so simple, but she hopes that I will use some means to force that orphan girl named Mingyue to take the initiative to give up the position of Danmen Dantong." Feng Chengcheng happened to be in retreat and cultivation during this time, I will use some means, are you afraid that this little girl of yours will not take the initiative to leave the Danmen? ”

Under the supervision of Sun Qinglai and the two boys, Mingyue climbed up and down the ground and was busy wiping the shelves of medicinal herbs. There are dozens of warehouses for herbs here, and it is not enough to be busy for ten days and a half months.

When Mingyue was busy to the unitary, her limbs were so sore and stiff that she could barely lift them, and she was tired and hungry. Mingyue was hungry, so she didn't care if there were any vegetables, so she ate the gruel and finished the two steamed buns in a few clicks. Mingyue finished dinner, and no one said that she was going to send her back to the academy, so she continued to work, and was busy until it was dark, and then she finished wiping the shelves of medicinal herbs in this warehouse. Mingyue was busy all day, carrying water and climbing up and down, she was really tired and had a sore back, and her fingers were worn out. But she was born stubborn, since she chose to come to Danmen to be a Dantong, of course she can't give up because of hard work, no matter how hard and tired she is, she must persevere.

Sun Qinglai, the chief manager, took two boys with lanterns and came to accept them in person. The two boys were nitpicking, either they didn't wipe it here, or they didn't wipe it there, in short, none of them were pleasing to the eye, and they ridiculed and abused Mingyue for a while. Mingyue was naturally angry when she heard this, but she had always been strong and did not want to give up because of their insults and ridicule.

"Look at you, your hands are frayed. You say that you are a woman, why should you be obsessed with coming to Danmen to be a Dantong? Wouldn't it be better for you to go back and cultivate well, and go to the medicine sect that you are good at? Sun Qinglai said disdainfully: "I see that you won't use it tomorrow." ”

Mingyue was anxious when she heard this, and she said firmly: "Manager Sun, I entered the Danmen through the official announcement of the Danmen list, I can't just come without you saying a word, right?" I'll continue to clean the storeroom tomorrow, and I'm not going to give up easily. ”

"Good, good, very good! It's up to you to last a few days. Sun Qinglai sneered disdainfully: "Come to Wang, send her out of Danmen." ”

Laiwang sent Mingyue outside the gate of Danmen and said, "You are waiting for Senior Brother Luo here." Mingyue wanted to ask him when Senior Brother Luo Jiajin would come to see her off, but Laiwang had already closed the door tightly with a "bang".

Mingyue sat tiredly on the stone steps at the gate of Danmen and waited for Senior Brother Luo, she had eaten too little for dinner, her stomach was already hungry, and a cold wind blew on the top of the mountain, making her shiver.

Mingyue sat on the steps with her arms crossed and tired, her whole body was sore, I don't know how long she waited, she was sleeping in a daze with her knees hugged, and heard a voice in her ear exclaiming: "Senior Sister Mingyue, it's so late, why haven't you left yet?" ”

Mingyue looked up and saw that Luo Jiajin was standing beside her and looked at her with a concerned face.

"Senior Brother Luo, are you finally here? I've been waiting for you for a long time. Mingyue stood up and said as her body was numb from the cold.

"Are you waiting for me?" Luo Jiajin asked in surprise, "I was sent to other elder sects in the afternoon, and Manager Sun arranged for Senior Brother Xiang Feng to send you back. What, no one told you? ”

Mingyue shook her head: "Laiwang just asked me to wait for you here." ”

Luo Jiajin said: "Then I'll send you back to the academy first, you Dantong have to go to Danmen to study for more than ten days in a row, it's so late, don't delay your rest." ”

Mingyue said gratefully, "I've caused trouble to Senior Brother Luo." ”

Locke smiled kindly, activated the transmission formation and sent Mingyue back to the academy.

Although Mingyue was full of disappointment in Danmen, she still told herself to persevere.
