Chapter 8 Getting Started

Bidding farewell to Uncle Tie and walking along the flow of people on the road, Chen Jing happened to have leisure to observe this sect.

Xuanzong is located in the middle of the mountainside, the whole is convex shaped, the front is the front hall used in the previous assessment, the middle is a wide field, placed with different instruments, it is said that for the disciples to practice, is facing the square is the main hall of Xuanzong, it is a solemn and gorgeous building, called the Ling Pavilion, the Ling Pavilion is hexagonal, divided into six layers, is one of the core of the sect, but also the core disciple cultivation place, it is said that there are all kinds of cheats collected for hundreds of years and various weapons and equipment, panacea and so on. Further on, the road is divided left and right, on the right is a huge square, made of granite, for daily lectures, confirming the place of learning, on its left is nine small rings, is the venue of the competition, on the left is the row of houses, it is a very traditional accommodation area, and the building of Ling Tiancheng is not much different, the houses are built on the mountain, row by row from top to bottom, it is very good-looking, it is dusk at this time, the afterglow of the sunset is sprinkled on it, reflecting the beautiful rice yellow light.

"Listen to me, big guy. I don't know when, Li Ken came to the door of the accommodation area, and was standing on the steps of the door facing everyone at this time.

"Junior brothers and sisters, first of all, congratulations on entering the Xuanzong Sect to study, you can pass the assessment of the sect, I believe that you are all dragons and phoenixes among people, and you will definitely make a difference under the cultivation of the sect. ”

Next, he introduced the historical achievements of the sect in a long way. After finishing speaking, he paused a little and said, "This is the accommodation area, we are divided into twenty groups according to your number, each group ranges from five to ten people, and each group will be equipped with a principal disciple, who is responsible for your work and cultivation and other daily life, if you have any questions, you can directly ask them for advice, and if I have time, I can also give some guidance." ”

"Still working?" the big guy couldn't help but ask.

Li Ken explained, "When you come here to cultivate, we don't charge a penny, but the sect has a large number of people, and relying on the financial support of the sect alone will be insufficient, so the sect is involved in all kinds of activities, including planting elixirs, hunting fierce beasts, forging equipment, etc. After that, the main disciple will assign you the corresponding tasks. I hope everyone will treat it positively and not perfunctory. ”

"Now everyone will rest first, and tomorrow we will go to the front hall to receive clothing and exercises. After speaking, he took a step back, and twenty disciples stood up behind him, which should be the main disciple Li Ken said. Soon, twenty people divided up the hundred or so disciples and took the lead into the accommodation area.

Chen Jing was divided into the seventh group, a total of five people, all male compatriots, led by the main disciple Li Bingcheng to the lowest dormitory area, ordered to get up early tomorrow, he would take them to the office to get things and then left in a hurry.

After Li Bingcheng left, everyone dared to calm down and speak loudly, after all, they were newcomers, and they were afraid of making mistakes, so everyone reported each other's names and began to chat.

"Senior Brother Li, why are you in such a hurry? ”

"I've heard my father say this, most of the main disciples of the sect have no talent in cultivation or have not made progress for a long time, and the sect feels that there is no potential for cultivation, so they will be delegated to deal with the chores of the sect until he can go further. After a pause, he said, "But don't think that if you don't have potential, it's nothing, they are all cultivators who have successfully gathered qi, but they lack opportunities or resources, and it can be said that the realm of gathering qi has stumped ninety percent of people." ”

Listening to his words, everyone put away their little self-confidence, and shared the little poor knowledge they knew, and saw that the sky was getting dark, and the meal was almost there, so they went back to the dormitory to pack their bags.

The dormitory is a simple structure, with earthen walls and tile roofs, a small courtyard at the door, a crooked jujube tree gently swaying in the wind, and the space inside is rectangular, divided into five parts of different sizes with wooden boards. There was not much in the room except for a bed and lockers. Slightly unwilling to put down the luggage, slightly tidy up the bed, felt that it was almost enough to close the door and prepare to go over to eat, just to see the other three people also opened the door and came out, one named Zhang Ming, the son of Dr. Zhang in the west of the city, and Liu Ren and Liu Yi, two brothers, from Liujia Village in the west of Lingtian City, who have been farming for generations.

"What about Zhang Liang?" Chen Jing asked curiously when she saw that there was one person missing.

Zhang Liang is the youngest son of the boss of Zhang Ji Restaurant in the city, the youngest of the five, only 10 years old, but he is the most well-informed of them.

"Not in the room?" Liu Yi said.

"No, I was just packing up my things when I saw him walk out, I don't know what he was doing, could it be to eat. ”

"It's possible, let's go too. I'm so hungry. Zhang Ming said.

At this time, it was meal time, the four of them followed the flow of people to find the canteen very easily, the meal was not good, three dishes and one soup, all of them were general home cooking, the four people who were already hungry ate a beautiful meal, followed by a few fellow chatters after eating, by the way, to understand what they have to do every day in the future, according to the experience of the brothers in previous years, it should be a heavy job such as carrying water and chopping wood.

Chen Jing stood by and listened for a while, and saw that what was said behind was something that was not nutritious, so he returned to the dormitory, recuperated, and waited for tomorrow's arrangement.

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, a bell rang to wake everyone up, Chen Jing knew it was time to get up, struggled out of the room, and just saw the other three people also come out sleepy-eyed, the four of them said hello to each other, and began to wash and tidy up.

In order not to let Li Bingcheng, who was already in the courtyard, wait too long, everyone had already assembled in the courtyard in less than half an hour.

Li Bingcheng looked at the four of them, only to find that there was one person missing, and said unhappily: "What is that Zhang." After speaking, he pointed to Zhang Ming and said, "It's your brother, where is it?"

Zhang Ming defended: "Senior brother, my name is Zhang Ming, what you are looking for is Zhang Liang, he is not my brother." Yesterday he went out alone and never came back. ”

"Hmph, you just came and dared to run around, I don't know the rules of the sect, you. Pointing to the four of them, he said, "Now come with me, and I'll take you to the Spirit Pavilion to pick up the items." ”

Under the leadership of Li Bingcheng, the group soon came to the first floor of the Ling Pavilion, which was already overcrowded.

The Ling Pavilion is huge, the area is worthy of hundreds of blacksmith shops, divided into many parts such as medicine, utensils, pills, miscellaneous, etc., Li Bingcheng said that these departments will buy and sell the corresponding items, so that the disciples can exchange the things they don't need for what they need, and after walking for a while, everyone came to the office and said: "This is the office, responsible for the logistics of the sect, everyone can come here to pick and buy any items they need." Chen Jing took the opportunity to take a look, and the things in it were really complete, from wardrobes and desks to pots and pans.

The crowd marched in an orderly manner under the command of the senior brothers and sisters, and everyone got their own identity tokens, the token is a wooden diamond-shaped, and the front is a Xuanzi, which is the same as the word of the Xuanzong plaque, it should be rubbed out, and the reverse side is a foreign word, which proves that everyone is just a foreign disciple, it is said that there are outer disciples on it, the token is a copper square, and the inner disciple token is a silver bar, and the token of the Dharma Protector and the elder is heard to be different from ordinary disciples, and it is made of special materials.

In addition to the token, there are two sets of clothes, with a practice recipe "Shangqing Jue", the senior brother said, in ancient times, human beings were very weak, bullied on the mainland, the ancestors looked at the changes in the world, a fairy law called "Qiankun", for the root of ten thousand laws, but due to various reasons, the book "Qiankun" was lost, leaving only the most basic cultivation method "Shangqing Jue", since then the immortal road is prosperous, various methods emerge in endlessly, "Shangqing Jue" as the most basic and the most solid foundation building method has been used to this day.

Chen Jingru was like a treasure, holding the book tightly, "I will definitely succeed." I thought to myself. Just as Chen Jingmei was thinking about the future path of cultivation, Li Bingcheng's untimely voice sounded, "Ladies and gentlemen, the path of cultivation is long, and the most important thing at the moment is to solve the problem of eating. Everybody follow me. After speaking, he took the lead and walked out of the Spirit Pavilion.

After walking west for nearly half an hour, a field came into view, "Isn't this the same as the land where ordinary people grow vegetables?"

"Of course it's different, this is the sect's medicinal field, and it is also one of the main economic sources of the sect, don't underestimate these hundreds of acres of medicinal fields, the annual output of economic benefits is more than Ling Tiancheng's income in ten years. Li Bingcheng introduced, "From today onwards, you will work here during the day, and go back to practice the Shangqing Jue at night. ”

"Your task now is to fetch water from the Baixi in the west, pour it into the small pond over there, and channel the water into the various medicine fields through the conduction of the waterwheel. ”

Following Li Bingcheng's finger, there was a circular pool about 30 zhang long and wide not far away, and a machine like a waterwheel kept rotating, leading the water out and flowing in all directions.

"Then why don't you bring water directly from Baixi, isn't it more convenient. Zhang Liang raised his own questions.

"This method has been thought of a long time ago, but the mountain is too steep to build, I wanted to build the mountain and cut the wall, but some people think that this will destroy the terrain and affect the aura here, and after comprehensive consideration, it was decided to use manpower. ”

"Don't worry, this is also a kind of exercise, which is good for your cultivation. After a pause, he said, "It's not too early, we will start working tomorrow and go back to rest." ”

Without waiting for us to ask any more questions, he turned around and walked away quickly, leaving the four of us messy in the wind: We are here to farm?
