Chapter 81: Residence
readx;? Lin Zheng followed Han Lei's gaze and saw that on the mountain not far from the two of them, there were thousands of independent single-story buildings. The style of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is no different from the second-class service house they saw on the road just now, and this should be the place where the third-class miscellaneous servants live.
Sure enough, Han Lei's next words confirmed his thoughts.
"Senior Brother Lin, in front of you is Courtyard C. You're going to spend the next half a year here. Han Lei pointed to the distance and said, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”
Lin Zheng and Han Lei walked into the third-class service station, and it was already afternoon at this time. Most of the miscellaneous workers in the office were supposed to be working, so they didn't see any other people either.
Although the houses on both sides of the road are simple and a little old, they are by no means dilapidated. Moreover, these thousands of houses are not far from each other, which allows the master to avoid interference from each other when he is cultivating. Obviously, in terms of housing, Chixiao Pavilion does not treat even the lowest-level miscellaneous servants in any way.
Walking in the courtyard, Lin Zheng's eyes kept scanning the surroundings, but the deeper he went, the deeper his brows wrinkled. This abnormal reaction is not because of the living environment of the C Courtyard, although it is far less clean and tidy than his villa in Jinyang, at least as a temporary residence, it can be regarded as well-organized. And for Lin Zheng, who used to live in the outer city of Thunder Prison City, the living conditions here are already good.
The reason why he frowned deeply was because the concentration of vitality here was too poor. Of course, this concentration of vitality is no different from the place where ordinary people live outside the sect. But if you compare it with the rest of the mountain office, it will be worse than 30%.
This gap does not have much impact on normal life.
Although when a martial artist is cultivating, the higher the concentration of vitality, the better the effect on the improvement of the martial artist's physical condition. But this situation is generally only relative to the innate martial artist.
For ordinary martial artists who have not entered the innate realm, this improvement is completely negligible. After all, if you don't open the qi aperture, you can't achieve the vitality entering the body. And without opening the Wisdom Sutra, it is impossible to even perceive the existence of Yuan Qi.
But the concentration of vitality that has no effect on ordinary martial artists has a great effect on Lin Zheng. Because of the coincidence, although Lin Zheng did not open the qi aperture, he had already begun to perceive it. He has been able to simply introduce Yuan Qi into his body and refine it into internal Qi. Therefore, the amount of vitality will inevitably have an impact on his cultivation speed.
If conditions permit, Lin Zheng certainly wants to find a place to live with a better concentration of vitality.
"Senior Brother Lin, look at how it is here. Han Lei took Lin Zheng to a house near the center of the courtyard.
"This is one of the better places in the C Courtyard, after all, although the number of Star Vein Warriors in the C Courtyard is not large, in terms of the number of ordinary miscellaneous servants, it is the most away from the mountain. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will help you find a better place. ”
Han Lei explained slightly, he didn't stammer with each other, but the two got along fairly well along the way. Within his own capabilities, he didn't mind helping the other party more.
Looking at the house in front of him, Lin Zheng groaned slightly, but did not reply directly. He knew that the other party had good intentions, even though the houses in the government office were about the same size. Under the same conditions, choosing a place to live close to the center obviously has this great advantage in terms of safety and faster integration into the office.
But Lin Zheng was not only thinking about the location, he also had to consider the concentration of vitality. With this condition as a premise, the denser the population, the more affected the already ordinary vitality concentration. That's a bit more than worth the cost.
"Senior Brother Han, can you find a slightly more remote place. Lin Zheng thought for a while and said. He knew that with Han Lei's cultivation, he couldn't consider the concentration of vitality, so he could only find other excuses.
"Okay, since junior brother doesn't like to be lively, then let's take a look. Han Lei paused slightly, but he didn't care.
He knew that with Lin Zheng's mind, he would not fail to understand the benefits of living here. Since the other party does not choose a central location to live, there must be a reason for him.
Although there are not many vacant residences in the center of the courtyard, it is because most of the miscellaneous disciples want to live in the central location. Compared to the thousands of residences in the C-Courtyard, there are only more than 600 miscellaneous disciples, and there are still a large number of empty houses left in the outer areas.
Since Lin Zheng had his own ideas, Han Lei no longer took the initiative to introduce, but followed the other party.
But Lin Zheng's way of choosing a place to live was a little hasty in Han Lei's eyes. Most of the time, the two of them just glanced casually outside the house and then walked to the next one, which was more like a casual look.
After looking at twenty or thirty houses in a row, Lin Zheng didn't seem to have made a clear choice. Fortunately, Han Lei's only task today is Lin Zheng alone, otherwise, no matter how good his temper is, it is estimated that he will not be able to endure such friction from the other party.
Finally, Lin Zheng stood down in front of a house with a wooden sign of 'C999'.
This is the easternmost house of the C Courtyard, and not only is there no one around, but even the distance between the surrounding houses is significantly wider than that of other places.
"Senior Brother Lin, you have to choose here. Han Lei had a strange look on his face.
"What, Senior Brother Han, is there someone here?" Lin Zheng looked at the other party suspiciously.
"That's not true, it's just that although this place is secluded and not disturbed by outsiders, but..." Han Lei always thought that the other party didn't want his martial arts skills to leak out, so he didn't want to live in the center. But Lin Zheng's choice of this place did surprise him.
"Senior Brother Han, if there's anything wrong, just say it. ”
"It's nothing else, but when I was in the service center before, I heard of this number 999. According to the handymen who live here, it has been haunted all the time. Of course, this claim is really nonsense. But one thing is true, as long as you live here for more than a month, there will often be a situation of blood riots. Later, not only did No. 999 be uninhabited. Even the rest of the neighborhood is rarely visited. In a way, it's like a haunted house. When it came to the blood riot, Han Lei's face palpitated.
Although the martial disciples have not yet produced internal qi, the martial artists above the seventh level of martial disciples already have a certain scale of qi and blood power, but because these qi and blood are not enough to reach the level of qi condensation, most of them are distributed in the body. If there is an abnormal situation during the cultivation, it may lead to a riot of qi and blood power.
Qi and blood riots are the most dangerous situation for martial artists when they are cultivating. Once it appears, it will not only hinder the martial artist's condensation, but even directly destroy the martial artist's body origin. Although the treatment is much simpler than internal qi turbulence. But the impact is often more far-reaching.
Regardless of whether the rumors of haunting are true or not, just hearing that this place will cause a riot of qi and blood, I am afraid that anyone will stay away from this place.
"Senior Brother Han, no one in that sect asked. Lin Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, questioning.
"Regarding the rumors of haunting, the sect has come out to refute the rumors. But strangely, no one has given a clear answer to the cause of the internal qi riot here. Han Lei looked dazed, obviously he didn't know anything about this situation.
Lin Zheng smiled slightly, Han Lei's answer made him more and more sure of some thoughts in his heart.
"Let's go, Senior Brother Han, let's go in and have a look. Lin Zheng stretched out his hand to signal.
"Senior Brother Lin, you really want to choose here. Han Lei also wanted to try to persuade the other party.
"Why, is Senior Brother Han afraid that a ghost will appear in broad daylight. Lin Zheng glanced at the other party defiantly, turned around and took the lead in pushing open the door and walked in.
"Stinky boy, you dare to make fun of me. Han Lei chuckled and followed.
A joke made the relationship between the two much better.
In the brick and stone wall more than one person high, there is a small courtyard with a radius of five zhang. It's obviously been a long time since anyone has been here, and the dense weeds are half a man's height. There are a few hundred and ten pounds of stone locks lying among the weeds, and the stone locks are a little rough in workmanship, which should have been made casually by the previous owner.
Ignoring the environment in the courtyard, the two went directly into the cabin in the middle.
As soon as he pushed open the wooden door of the room, the air currents brought up a thick cloud of dust. Judging by the dust accumulated in the room, no one has lived here for at least a few years.
The structure of this house is relatively simple, with only two rooms, inside and outside. The inner room is a place to rest and refine qi, and the outer room can be used as a simple reception. Fortunately, the beds and seats in the house are made of solid wood, and although they are old, there are no signs of damage, and as long as they are cleaned a little, they can live in.
After checking it, Han Lei explained other precautions. For example, the miscellaneous servants of the service station will be divided into their own teams to complete the miscellaneous tasks assigned by the sect. When the time comes, the captain will come to inform him.
Of course, new disciples can have a three-day break. Take advantage of this gap to familiarize yourself with the environment of the office, and go to the arsenal to get martial arts.
After confirming once again that Lin Zheng would not change his mind, Han Lei no longer persuaded him, but just told the other party that if he had other ideas, he could go to the deacon's office to find him. (To be continued.) )
