Chapter 72: Blending into the Environment
The furnishings in the room are very simple, a couch, a golden sandalwood table, a few rolls of bamboo slips on the table, three fine color pens hanging upside down on the pen stand, and two chairs. The bright red sunset outside the window shone on the table, gilding the room with a warm flush.
After Shi Rou looked at it, she felt quite satisfied, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and laid out the mattress rolled up by the wall.
Lying comfortably on the bed, Shi Rou looked at the high ceiling and thought to herself: "I finally entered the Tianyuan Sect, I don't know what will happen in the future...... However, since he has entered the Great Gate Sect, he should be able to cultivate faster...... When the time comes, you can go to your father while cultivating......"
Thinking about entering the various lives in the sect in the future, Shi Rou fell asleep in a daze after a while.
Early the next morning, Luo Guoran appeared at the door on time.
"Senior Brother Luo, good morning."
"yes, okay." After carefully looking at Shi Rou's complexion, she looked at the red and white Dao robe of the female disciple of the Tianyuan Sect that she had newly changed, and said with a smile, "It seems that you have a good rest." Then come with me and meet the guys. ”
"Uh......" Shi Rou had no choice but to follow.
In a large open space, more than a dozen stout, sturdy men in gray robes walked up and down, muttering, and looking this way from time to time.
"Why haven't you come yet? Everyone's got something going on...... Hey? It's coming, it's coming! ”
"Hello Uncle Luo!"
"Uncle Luo is so ......"
Everyone stepped forward with a smile and saluted Luo Cheng sloppily.
More than a dozen pairs of eyes were focused on Shi Rou, all with the meaning of scrutiny, detection, and estimation.
How to say that Shi Rou is also a character who has not changed his face after the jealous gaze of thousands of people, and smiled lightly at everyone at the moment: "Senior brothers, ......"
Luo Cheng crossed his hand to stop Shi Rou from continuing: "You can't call them senior brother." In terms of generation, these guys should call you uncle. ”
The generations of the Tianyuan Sect are all divided according to cultivation, the Qi refining monk is called Uncle Zhuji Monk, the Zhuji monk is called Uncle Jindan Monk, and so on. However, there are also some exceptions, such as personal disciples, who are only slightly lower than their teachers.
After speaking, Luo Cheng smiled and scolded the group of people: "What are you still doing in a daze? I haven't seen Uncle Xiao yet! ”
"Haha, how is Uncle Xiaoshi!"
"Uncle Xiao, you are so beautiful......"
"Judging by Uncle Junior's appearance, he should at least be in the top five of our Fire Devouring Peak, right?"
"No, no, I think it's the top three......"
A group of people giggled, not seeing any awe for their own disciples, but laughing at them.
Shi Rou was a little helpless, this is not good at a young age.
In desperation, Bai Linma screamed strangely in his heart: "Hey, these people are so strange!" All of them are only one step away from the Golden Pill, but if they continue to cultivate like this, they will not be able to advance for another ten years. ”
Shi Rou was taken aback, she didn't expect that Bai Lin Ma was so good at treasure hunting, and he even had insights into cultivation? She asked in her heart, "Why do you say that?" ”
"Why else, these people are practicing blindly! I don't know if the exercises are suitable for me, so I catch them and practice them randomly, some of the exercises are more domineering, and they should be used to assist in practicing with water yin grass but it is useless; Some of the entire aura is out of place, resulting in poor qi pulses; There is also the bearded man, who is obviously a water spirit root, and actually came to refine the weapon! His brain was definitely pumping...... Tsk, Tianyuan Sect really treats the outer disciples as if they were animals, and they still want to marry Dan like this? To be able to cultivate to the great consummation of foundation building, it is all about burning high incense. Bai Lin said.
Hearing this, Shi Rou was a little silent.
"Hey, look, you lewd guys, you are all scared of our beautiful little uncle, be more restrained, more restrained, don't see a beautiful girl like Brother Pig." Seeing that Shi Rou was silent, one of the big men hurriedly waved his hand to tell everyone to be quiet.
Seeing this, Shi Rou smiled slightly.
The crowd giggled.
Although the men have been working and cultivating in the refining workshop for a long time and are very familiar with each other, they rarely deal with outsiders except for their own people, let alone with girls.
So it's a greeting, but you can't go up and hook up your shoulders and pull the little girl to get drunk, right? Everyone looked at Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng rolled his eyes and shouted, "Forgot what I taught you last night?" ”
One said: "Hmm...... Originally, I seemed to have an impression, but after seeing Uncle Beauty, I can't remember anything! ”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Luo Cheng shook his head and said to Shi Rou: "Don't pay attention to them, they are so virtuous, forget it, today I will be the east, and I will go to the most famous food incense building in our Fire Devouring Peak to eat." ”
"Really? Uncle Luo, aren't you going bankrupt today? ”
"Yes, our brothers will definitely eat with an open stomach!"
"Eat it, I'm afraid of you? It's a big deal if you don't boil the pot within a year, it's nothing! ”
"Okay......"
A group of people came to the Shixiang Building in a mighty and noisy manner, huddled together around a large round table. Originally, Luo Cheng suggested dividing it into two tables, but no one wanted to go to the table without Uncle Xiao's presence, so in the end it had to become a circle of meat walls around the table, which scared the little two in the Shixiang Building enough.
Good wine and good food were quickly served on the table, and the sixteen cups were full of wine, and in the face of everyone's high interest, Shi Rou had no choice but to follow the local customs.
Luo Cheng raised his glass and said: "Now that you are unable to move, don't stand up, anyway, there is no need to say anything superfluous, the tradition of our refining workshop is to be enthusiastic, bold, and short-tempered!" Except for a few annoying guys who like to be alone, everyone has work to do together, and the benefits are shared together, and they are all a family! ”
"Good!"
"Well said......"
Everyone slapped the table and raised their glasses.
Shi Rou was surprised, the cultivation world was strictly hierarchical, and it was all based on strength, and it was really rare for someone like Luo Cheng to mingle with a group of people who were weaker than himself.
"Today, our refining workshop has welcomed another very important member, which is my junior sister Shi Rou. Senior Sister Shi entered the late stage of qi refining at a young age, and was accepted as a personal disciple by the master, and she will definitely have a bright future in the future, so everyone who wants to hug their thighs should hurry! There is no such shop in this village......"
"Hehe...... a group of people looked at Shi Rou with a sneer without concealing it, "Little Uncle ......"
"Come, Uncle Junior, my nephew will toast you, and I will take care of you in the future......" One of them stretched out his hand with a wine glass.
"Go, go, I should toast Uncle Xiao first, come, I wish Uncle Xiao a long life......"
More than a dozen hands stretched out together, making Shi Rou shocked and amused.
Although the group of people were smiling, there was a hint of sincerity in their eyes, which was completely different from the monks she had known before, and she was a little at a loss for how to react.
Intrigues, ridicule and snubbing, she is not afraid, but she can't refuse people who treat her sincerely.
Seeing Luo Cheng also looking at her with a smile on his face, Shi Rou coughed awkwardly: "That ......"
"I wish Uncle Xiao eternal youth, and the immortal law is boundless!" The crowd shouted in unison.
The corners of Shi Rou's mouth twitched, gritted her teeth, and drank the wine glass in front of her!
"Good!"
"Uncle Xiao is massive!"
"Come, come, have another ......"
With the beginning, the situation naturally opens up. A group of people drank wine and ate meat, pushed cups and changed lamps, and it was not lively.
Shi Rou felt a lot of emotion in her heart, she hadn't experienced it for a long time to eat at a table with a large number of people like this. I don't know if it's because of the wine, but at this moment, seeing a group of people rushing to toast her, I will feel warm in my heart.
However, it didn't take long for her to feel a little strange.
After taking turns toasting, the group of people ate faster and faster, as if a ghost was chasing after them.
Luo Cheng was also a little unbearable: "Eat slowly, eat slowly for me!" And no one is robbing you, what are you doing like that! ”
"Really, the monkey is in a hurry for something, today is the first day of entry for junior sister, and you are not in a hurry to cultivate."
But Luo Cheng's scolding only worked for a short while, and the big men ate faster and faster uncontrollably, as if they were racing against time.
Luo Cheng frowned, and said to Shi Rou: "Don't care, these guys are used to it like this on weekdays, and they can't change it for a while." Usually because they have too many things, the time they spend cultivating every day is very short, and in order to improve, everyone is desperately trying to squeeze out time to practice. ”
Hearing this, Shi Rou's eyes shook.
For some reason, a feeling of soreness suddenly rose in my heart, and looking at them, it was like seeing my former self. Didn't you practice like this before, but you couldn't make the cut? And her luck is that she has Qiu Yunding, and Yun Chou has guided her, so that the situation is very different from before, but they still don't know their own problems, will there be results if they continue to cultivate like this?
If it is really as Bai Linma said, he will not be able to break through the knot for ten years......
Shi Rou knew that although Bai Linma's words were annoying, his vision was undoubted. Thinking so, I couldn't help but fall silent again.
After hesitating for a moment, Shi Rou called out in her heart: "Xiaobai, can you help me solve these people's problems?" ”
Bai Linma was stunned: "The master wants to help them?" Yes. ”
"Senior Sister Shi?" Seeing that Shi Rou was silent, Luo Cheng called.
"Ah, I was thinking about things just now, and I was a little distracted."
"What is it that I thought about it so seriously, I even frowned just now." Luo Cheng said with a smile.
"Well," Shi Rou suddenly turned his head and said to a big man with high cheekbones beside him, "I want to ask, when you are cultivating every day, do you always feel some tingling pain on the lower left side of your dantian in the middle of the night, and your chest will feel stuffy?" ”
The sound is not loud, and it is drowned out for a moment in a noisy situation. However, the man raised his head suddenly, looked at Shi Rou in shock, and the rice in his mouth fell out without realizing it.
It's just because his situation only appeared half a year ago, and at first I thought it was just a small problem, but in the past two months, it has become more and more serious. He always thought that he was too tired and tired, so he didn't tell anyone.
Didn't this little uncle just come to the sect today? How could it be ......?
