Volume 3: Ignorance Qi Refining One Hundred and Twenty: Worship Academy

Shrine.

After Tang Ping left that day, Qian Chao went to Li Jian and told him about the appointment to gather in the court, and Li Jian readily agreed.

On the day of the appointment, Qian Chao, Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan came to the Shrine early to wait for the arrival of Tang Ping and Yan Xuan.

The worship courtyard of the Five Spirits Sect is not far from Jiuxuan, since it is called a courtyard, it naturally has a courtyard wall, a large square courtyard, a circle of pink and white walls, and the gate is facing Tianshui Lake. The three of them did not go in, but through the tall courtyard wall, they could see a tall building with rules and regulations inside, the main entrance of the courtyard was wide open, and there was a plaque above the door, with the three big characters "Jingshiyuan" on it.

Qian Chao looked at the plaque, and secretly said that the three big characters on it were written squarely.

There are people coming and going at the gate, it must be the reason why there are many people in Jiuxuan, and in this flow of people, Qian Chao saw a few senior brothers who he knew and could name, and some of the rest looked familiar even if they couldn't be named.

The three of them waited for a while, and then they heard someone talking behind them.

"You three arrived so early!"

It was Tang Ping who spoke, she came with Yan Xuan, but there was another woman who followed the two of them.

"Brother Li, Brother Lu, Qian boy, this is Senior Sister Min of Qixia Mountain, Senior Sister of Teaching Sister Yan alchemy, Sister Yan and I met when we were about to come out, Senior Sister Min knew that it was the first time for us to go out, so I came over to tell us a few about the dispatch in the Honorable Yuan and some things outside the sect."

This is naturally a good thing, and when Qian Chao and the others heard it, they immediately saluted and thanked Min'e in a proper manner.

Min'e has always been close to Yan Xuan, and in the chat, she already knew that this Senior Sister Min had a few good friends when she was in Youming Valley, and there were exactly five of them together, and they were going to make an appointment to go to the sect together to be sent to the Worship House in the future.

Min'e looked at the three teenagers in front of her, among the few friends of this Senior Sister Yan, she had only seen Tang Ping, but she had heard of Qian Chao, because she had seen Senior Sister Yan's Dan Furnace, and now she couldn't help but secretly say that this Qian Chao is really as Senior Sister Yan said, he is an extremely smart person. In addition, Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan are sword cultivators, steady and silent; The other is physical cultivation, honest and powerful. Coupled with an extremely clever Tang Ping, Min'e secretly said that if this senior sister Yan went out, it seemed that there was nothing to worry about her.

"In the end, I'm still a little worried, Senior Sister Yan is going out for the first time, and I originally wanted to take Senior Sister Yan out once, but since there are so many of you, you don't have to worry about any danger when you go out, but there are still some things you don't know well want to talk to you, so I came over." Senior Sister Min said.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Min, we can't ask for it." Qian Chao replied.

In fact, Qian Chao also went to find his senior brother Cheng yesterday, and asked Senior Brother Cheng to tell him carefully about the things that should be paid attention to when he went out, and Cheng Qiantang also said that he wanted to come out with them, but Qian Chao thought that Senior Brother Cheng had a lot of things, so he thanked him, and only said that if he encountered difficulties, he would come to his senior brother for help.

"Let's go, let's go in first." As she spoke, Min'e led a few people into the Shrine.

The courtyard is very wide and flat, and the tall building in the middle is where the disciples in the sect receive their dispatches.

This building does not seem to be any different from other buildings in the sect, but in Qian Chao's opinion, the plaque above the main entrance is different from other places, and the four gilded characters on the black lacquered plaque: "Respect for things", between the lines of the pen, the law is strict, and the atmosphere is good.

Elsewhere in the sect or buildings or pavilions, no matter where the inscription on the plaque is either elegant or wild or uninhibited or ancient and simple, Qian Chao has not seen a plaque in any place such as "respect for things" These four words are generally written so respectfully and solemnly, majestic and solemn, and there is no inscription on the plaque, I don't know which predecessor wrote it this way, probably these four words are written like this to make the disciples here have a sense of awe in their hearts, and they must do what they can to do things.

In the courtyard against the wall, there is a circle of wooden signs that resemble posting lists, which are also covered with various colors of paper, densely written with words.

Seeing that the eyes of several people were curious to look at the paper on the wooden card, Min'e said: "Those are also used by people to go out to do things." ”

"Doing things? What to do? Yan Xuan asked, looking at the wooden signs.

"Well, for example, if I want to refine an elixir, I am missing a few flavors of spiritual grass, and I can't find it in the sect, so I will post a notice here, stating what spiritual grass I need, what year I need, how many plants I need, how long the deadline is, etc., if someone intends to do this, take down the notice and find me, and then discuss together how much the reward is."

"Well, isn't that the same as being sent to the Imperial Court?"

"It's different, well, take what I just said as an example, the spirit grass I need can also be sent out by the senior brothers of the Worship Academy, and let the junior brothers and sisters outside the sect help me find it, but then I will have to give an extra spirit stone to the Worship Academy, many people are unwilling to give this spirit stone, so they will post a notice here to find someone to help them do things."

"Oh, then the Worship House will earn less spirit stones, can the senior brother inside be willing?"

"The senior brother of the Shrine won't take care of it, and even these wooden signs have been erected by the Shrine. Things have to be seen separately, post notices here to find someone to help, the advantage is that it is more convenient, both sides can meet, there can be a discussion, whether it is the remuneration or the term, or the year of the spirit grass has a discussion, more flexible. What about the inconvenience, if the person who does the work has not been able to find the spirit grass that is needed, then it can only be like this, it is great to post a notice again, and then find someone to continue to help. Unlike in the Remembrance Temple, if the dispatch cannot be done within the time limit, the spirit stone must be deducted. Although you don't need to take the spirit stone in the Remittral House when you receive the send, if you really can't complete it, it will have to be deducted from the monthly offering of the sect, so you must do your best to accept the dispatch of the Remembrance Temple. ”

Several people nodded after hearing this.

"There is also the fact that most of the things that appear on those wooden signs are more troublesome and dangerous, and they are usually done by those high-level senior brothers who refine qi, not to mention you, I took it, maybe the one who posted the notice didn't believe that I could do it, so you guys should not fight the idea of those notices, and start with the dispatch of the Worship House first."

……

Under the plaque of "Respect for Things" is the main entrance of this building, and several people followed Senior Sister Min into it with the flow of people coming in and out.

Bypassing a large landscape screen that obscured the view, several people entered the first floor of the temple.

"The five of you can't go up to the second floor yet, the second floor is only open to mid- and high-level Qi refining disciples, and the third floor is not allowed to go up to Qi refining disciples."

The pavilions of the Five Spirits Sect are almost like this, similar to the library building of Jiuxuan, the building is not small from the outside, and after entering, it is found that the inside is even larger, and the first floor of this worship house is also the same, after the five people came in, they looked inside, only to feel that the near place was bustling, and the distance was crowded, the hall on the first floor of the worship house was wide, and it extended inward, and the innermost people could not say that their faces were not clear, and they could only vaguely distinguish the outline of their figures when they stood at the door.

"Good boy! It's so big inside! "Lu Pingchuan didn't expect there to be so many people here.

Even if Qian Chao inquired in advance, he was surprised after entering this court, how to get the dispatch in this crowd, but fortunately this Senior Sister Min came, otherwise he was really at a loss.

"That's natural, the most in the sect are Qi refining disciples, and the Qi refining disciples who have not passed the small five levels account for about seventy percent, so of course this floor is big, let's go, let's go and see the dispatch of the Worship Academy."

On the first floor, there are many large wooden signs, and the rows of walls generally extend inside, and people look at the wooden signs. However, unlike the wooden signs posted on the outside, the wooden signs inside are much more regular, divided into small grids, and a square piece of paper is pasted in the grid, and the content of the dispatch is written on it, and there is a small nail in each small grid, and a small wooden sign the size of a jade pendant is hung on the nail.

"On this," Senior Sister Min pointed to the paper on a large wooden plaque and said, "It is written as a dispatch, look, it is written that there are thirty wooden gingers for alchemy, the fineness must be at least the middle grade, the year should be more than forty years, if you are sure that you can find these thirty wooden gingers outside, you can take down this small brand, and then go over there to ......"

Senior Sister Min pointed to the position against the wall with her hand, and several people saw that there were many bookcases against the wall, and there were monks writing and painting behind them, and there were many people waiting on the side of the bookcase.

"Take your master's jade pendant, and find any senior brother in the temple to help you write it down, this dispatch will be counted, but it can be written that it will be completed within 20 days, if the time limit is exceeded, even if the wood ginger is handed over on the 21st, it will be considered that the dispatch has not been completed, and the remuneration for this dispatch will be deducted at the least, and the monthly offering will be deducted at the worst. However, if it is completed, there will be a reward of eight spirit stones. ”

Li Jian nodded when he heard this, in his opinion, eight spirit stones were already a lot.

"Eight spirit stones, Senior Sister Min, isn't it true that the more you send inside, the more spirit stones you give?"

It was Tang Ping who was asking, she had elders and teachers, so naturally the eight spirit stones were not in her eyes.

"I'm afraid you think so, Senior Sister Tang, this is the first time for the five of you to go out, even if you go out more times in the future, don't covet the reward of the spirit stone to do some inadequate, thirty wood ginger seeds seem simple, but the sect is so big, it is not easy to find all of them, and the color and year meet the requirements, when you come to hand in the wood ginger, the senior brother here is very strict, and there are also some famous halls inside, it is inconvenient to talk about it here." If you go out to find it in the wrong direction, or if it is picked by other disciples who go out first, it is very likely that you will not be able to find even a single wood ginger when you go out, which is also a thing. ”

Tang Ping smiled when she heard this, stuck out her tongue, and nodded.

"Don't talk about going out for the first time, even if you go out a few more times later, it's best for the five of you to take some more simple assignments first, first, it's not difficult to complete, and second, take a turn outside more, familiarize yourself with what products are everywhere outside the sect, and what troubles you will encounter, but don't go to dangerous places." Even if the mission is completed, you may come across a lot of things that you can bring back with you, either for your own use or for others, which is also good. ”

"I do know where there are many low-level spirit grasses outside the sect, and there are no powerful demon beasts there, why don't you start there?"

Seeing a few people nodding, Senior Sister Min took them to carefully find the dispatch on the wooden card, and walked a short distance inside and took off five small wooden signs, those messengers asked for the spiritual grass that Yan Xuan knew, Senior Sister Min told the five people one by one where to go out of the sect, and emphasized where to go, so let these five people go to the senior brother of the Worship House to record.

Five small wooden signs were written in the names of each of the five of them, and the senior brother of the Remembrance Academy wrote them down in a thick book after inspecting their jade pendants.

"The first time you go out, let's do these first, let you finish it in twenty days, I estimate that there will be more than ten days, remember not to take risks, well, it's best not to have any disputes with others, now it's sent to lead, if you go out now, I'll send you, alas, there are always some people who are restless when they leave the sect."

There are also rules for the disciples of the Five Spirits Sect to go out of the sect for the sake of the temple, and they can't always fly out in one direction, and they must know that it is disrespectful to fly rashly over the caves of the predecessors of the various sects in the sect, so even if ordinary disciples come and go in the sect, they also know where to fly, where to avoid, and there is a certain route. For a long time, disciples have only been in a few places when they leave the sect, but there are many people coming and going in those places, so there are always bad guys waiting there.

They bully the weak, relying on the strength of the people, and force the small signs they received from the Remitted House to those passing by, and this dispatch is for them to do, and then they have to send back the things they brought back and the small sign, and then go to the Remembrance to receive the payment, if the things they bring back cannot be completed by the dispatch or those juniors and disciples are unwilling to do things for them, then they will have to follow them together and bully people outside.

Senior Sister Min said that she wanted to send them out, but also to prevent the five of them from being bullied, after all, even if those bullying Qi refining disciples didn't know Senior Sister Min, but with the name of Qi Xia Mountain and the double gourd jade button on Senior Sister Min's waist, it is estimated that no one would want to be embarrassed.

In fact, Qian Chao has a small sign in the inner hall of Chengqi Hall, and even Yan Xuan has a small jade gourd hanging on the jade pendant of the master's door, and the senior sister who is not allergic is still worried that there are many guys who can't open their eyes, so they still sent the five of them over.

Sure enough, there were some people who came out of the sect and gathered there. But this time, the few of them were only glanced at a few times, and no one came to entangle.
