Chapter 30 The First Shift
The next morning, when the sky was still hazy, Li Mu pushed open the door and walked out of the room softly. Feeling the humidity and freshness in the air in the early morning, the corners of Li Mu's mouth hooked up a touch, he was looking forward to it, the world outside Heshan City would be even more exciting.
Li Mu didn't alarm the others, he walked along the quiet forest road to Li Chen's residence. Everything here is so familiar, over the years, he has relied on his father's understanding and support, plus the company of Xiao Liyun and Xi'er, so that he is not too depressed. Li Mu looked up, the door was still hidden, his eyes trembled a little, he hesitated for a long time, and finally did not wake up Li Chen. Li Mu knelt down in front of the door, kowtowed three times, and then got up and left.
When Li Mu was far away, the door opened with a "squeak", Li Chen looked at the open space in front of the door, there were two tears in his eyes, they were more crystal clear and shining than the dew of Xinchen, but Li Mu had not seen it for a long time......
—————————————————————————————————————
Li Mu went out of Li's house and went all the way west, Heshan Town in the early morning was like a sleeping baby, looking so quiet and natural. A few figures could occasionally be seen on the streets, Li Mu did not delay much, he went all the way to the floating light auction house on Moshi Street.
Not long after, Li Mu has arrived, he looked at the spectacular auction house in front of him, red silk around the beam, amethyst as the top, ink stone paved on the main road, along the road on both sides of the road is the morning light and bloom Ling Yi flowers, Li Mu stepped on the ink stone road, towards the auction house door, he looked at the magnificent auction house, for a moment I don't know whether to knock on the door or wait.
"Come in, little one. Just when Li Mu was in a dilemma, he saw that the door had slowly opened, and a voice sounded in his head, which was Qingke's voice.
Li Mu walked into the auction house, looking at the palatial inner hall, looking a little surprised, he was going to come with Li Chen last time, but he stayed at home for Xi'er's rescue operation. This is also the first time Li Mu has entered here, so he seems very curious.
"Little guy, come up, I'll be waiting for you in the first VIP room on the second floor. Qingke's voice came again, Li Mu didn't look too much, he went up to the second floor, he knocked on the door, but saw the door open, Li Mu looked up, Qingke was sitting on a jade cave inside.
"Elder Qing, I'm coming for you. Li Mu gave a salute and said respectfully.
"Boy, you're ready fast. Huh, your breath is good! In just a few days, you can actually break through from the first level of the Xuanling Realm, not bad!" Qingke looked at Li Mu and said with some surprise.
"Since you came to me so early, you must be in a hurry to go to the academy! But we can't go back immediately, passing through the county town exchange and auction house in Dongjiang County, there are still some things to do. Qingke smiled, patted his side, and said, "Sit down, while there is nothing to do now, I will briefly introduce the things related to the academy for you." ”
"Yes. Li Mu sat down, he showed a look of anticipation, from his birth to the present, he has never been out of Heshan City, for him, Dongjiang County is a new world.
"Dongjiang County is one of the 18 counties in Yanxiao Kingdom, with 52 affiliated cities, of course, this Heshan City is also one of them, Dongjiang County has a vast area, among which there are many masters, but when it comes to the top forces, there are only four!"
"First, the Imperial City Guard, it is the weakest of them, but it is the most powerful, because it has the support of the Imperial City behind it. In addition to the county guard, the remaining three major forces are the three major academies of Heavenly Spirit, Holy Spirit, and Lingwu, which have a long history and have been inherited for hundreds of years. In terms of strength, the Heavenly Spirit Academy is slightly higher than my Holy Spirit Academy, and the strength of the Spirit Martial Academy is weaker than our Holy Spirit Academy. The other two colleges will gradually come into contact with in the future, and I will first introduce you to our Holy Spirit Academy. Qing Ke paused for a moment, and then said, "There are seven main places in the Holy Spirit Academy, which are referred to as four halls, two districts and one forbidden place. ”
Li Mu asked with some curiosity: "Four halls, two districts and one forbidden land?"
Qing Ke replied with a smile, "The four halls refer to the Punishment Hall, the Dou Ling Hall, the Barter Hall, and the Sutra Treasure Hall, and the four halls are the core of my Holy Spirit Academy, which are located in the east, west, south, and north of the academy respectively. The four main halls are respectively served by the four core elders of the academy, known as Nanqing and Beiyu, and Donghe Xiyang. ”
"Elder Qing, Nanqing ......" Li Mu said tentatively, "Yes, Nanqing is referring to me, I am in charge of the Barter Palace, so I am also in charge of the various auction houses in the 52 cities under my control. As for the other three core elders, they are called Yu Fengyan, He Feixiao, and Emperor Yang, and when they enter the academy in the future, you will get to know each other one by one. Qing Ke smiled, explained, and then continued: "The Barter Hall is in charge of trading and mutual markets, and there are everything in the academy, from the elixir and martial arts to the trivial things of life and the necessities of daily life, you can trade and sell them here." As the name suggests, the Penal Hall is in charge of all the rules and laws of the academy, and enforces the law. The Douling Hall is the most important, it is controlled by Elder Yang Di, the most powerful of the core elders, and the Douling Hall will also be the most important cultivation place for you in the future, and you will know the reason when you enter the academy. As for the scripture collection hall, it is the place where all the exercises, martial arts, and ancient secret texts of the academy are preserved, and Elder Yufeng Yan serves as the hall master, and the four core elders have their own heirs, and the rules of the academy are that each core elder can only choose one successor. Now that the four core elders have their own disciples, when you arrive at the academy, I will take you to meet the dean first, and then arrange your mentorship and cultivation matters. ”
"Thank you Elder Qing for arranging this. Li Mu bowed deeply, he knew very well that the reason why Qingke told him this was to let him know something about the academy, and secondly, to tell himself some "rules" of the academy.
Qingke waved his hand, "You are extremely talented, and your soul power is even more outstanding, so you don't have to worry about the problems after entering the academy." I just talked about the four major halls, and now I will tell you that there are two areas and a forbidden land, the two areas refer to the living area and the task area, among them, the living area is located in the center of the academy, and it covers the widest area, it is divided into three floors, and there are three levels of disciples living there. The mission area is attached to the living area, it is the place where the tasks of various colleges are released, and it is also the fastest place to earn spirit stones, it is close to the barter hall in the south, and the two regions do not have an actual supreme jurisdiction, but are jointly managed by the ten inner elders. ”
"Earn spirit stones?" Li Mu's eyes lit up, "Is it easy to earn spirit stones in the academy?"
"Hehe, you kid, spirit stones are not a precious thing in Dongjiang County, becoming a disciple of the academy, you can receive a certain number of spirit stones every month, not to mention the spirit stones earned through tasks. ”
Li Mu listened to Elder Qingke's words, scratched his head embarrassedly, quite embarrassed, after all, for him, the spirit stone is a good thing, although he is the young master of the Li family, he has not seen the spirit stone a few times, for a small city like Heshan City, even if it is a big family, it is difficult to get the spirit stone, the spirit stone itself is a symbol of strength and wealth here, because there is no spirit stone vein here, only through pure gold to trade!
"As for the 'one forbidden', it refers to the forbidden place of my Holy Spirit Academy, the Valley of Buried Souls. Even I don't know much about the forbidden land, but you just need to remember that it was suddenly born in the deep valley in the north of the academy decades ago, and the dean decreed that it was designated as the forbidden place of the academy, and no one was allowed to trespass. ”
"Burial Soul Valley?" Li Mu muttered, remembering it in his heart.
"The situation of the disciples of the academy is divided into four levels, namely the outer court disciples, the inner court disciples, the core disciples and the academy stars. At present, there are more than 18,000 outer court disciples, more than 300 inner court disciples, four core disciples, and one academy star in the academy. Among them, the core disciple is the only disciple of the four core elders, including me, and the academy star, many people in the academy still don't know about her existence, and you won't see her, so you don't need to know too much. ”
"Yuan Xing?!" Li Mu was obviously very curious, but since Elder Qingke didn't want to say it, he couldn't continue to ask.
"You kid, don't think about this, with your talent, even if you enter the academy, you will at least be a disciple of the inner courtyard, and even the elders of the inner courtyard will rush to accept you as an apprentice. I remember, among the inner elders, two of them are thunder attributes, you are only twelve years old, you have already broken through to the second level of the Xuanling Realm, this kind of talent is comparable to the core disciple, if it weren't for the fact that I have different attributes from you, and the core elder can only have one disciple, I would like to accept you as an apprentice! When you enter the academy and meet the dean, he will make proper arrangements for you. ”
Li Mu scratched his head and smiled a little embarrassedly, "Hehe, I'll be thirteen years old in two days." Oh, by the way, you just said that the disciples of the academy can receive spirit stones every month? I don't know ......."
When Qing Ke heard this, he couldn't help but laugh, "You kid, you're slippery, okay, I'll tell you that the disciples of the outer court can receive 100 spirit yuan points per month, the inner court disciples can receive 1000 spirit yuan points per month, and the core disciples can receive 10,000 spirit yuan points per month." ”
"Lingyuan point, what is that, isn't it a spirit stone?" Li Mu asked with some confusion when he heard this.
"Lingyuan points are the basic trading unit of our Holy Spirit Academy, ten Lingyuan points can be exchanged for a low-grade spirit stone, and each disciple can freely choose whether it is a spirit yuan point or a spirit stone when receiving the monthly rule. That's why I just said that, now, do you understand?" Qing Ke looked at Li Mu a little helplessly, and patiently explained.
Li Mu's face was full of shock, according to Elder Qingke, if he became a disciple of the inner court, he could receive 1,000 spirit yuan points or 100 lower grade spirit stones every month, which was not a small amount! For the Li family, I was afraid that taking out 500 lower grade spirit stones would hurt my muscles and bones, but for the inner courtyard disciples of the Holy Spirit Academy, it was just a few months of free monthly cases!
Qingke looked at Li Mu and shook his head, "You kid, I'm telling you this so that you can understand the basic situation of the academy. Seeing the way you are now, I can't wait, you can sit here for a while, if the color is already bright today, after a while, you will be ready to set off and go to Dongjiang County!"
When Li Mu heard this, he was quite excited in his heart, the four halls, two districts and one ban, elders, disciples, courtyard stars, and moon spirit stones...... The life of this college must be very exciting!
Li Mu's heart moved, he thought of something, and then asked, "Elder Qingke, can my contract spirit beast become a disciple of the academy with me?"
