Chapter 12 New Steward
In a side hall of the Beast Workshop.
"Senior Brother Cui, this is your token waist card, you have to take it."
A late-stage Qi refining cultivator who was about thirty years old solemnly handed a waist card to Cui Ning. Then he looked curiously at this young man who looked a little delicate.
"Beast Workshop Manager", although this is the easiest position on the island, but there is no oil and water, and the monk of the Beast Workshop, who doesn't know the reason, thinks that Cui Ning has offended some deacon on the island.
Regarding the doubts in his eyes, Cui Ning pretended not to see it, he came to the Beast Workshop to verify his secrets here, and he naturally had to be low-key, and it was best for no one to pay attention to him.
"Senior Brother Xie."
Cui Ning looked at the waist card in his hand, which was a wooden sign about the size of a palm, with the words "Beast Fang" engraved on the front and "Huang Xin number of stewards" engraved on the back. ”
Don't look at it ordinary, this waist card is engraved with the special prohibition of Qingfeng Pavilion, and it can't be imitated at all.
This is the entry and exit token of the Beast Workshop, with this token, you can enter and exit freely in the Beast Workshop, except for some forbidden places, such as the trap of high-level spirit beasts, etc., and at the same time, you can also break some ordinary prohibitions in the valley.
As an important resource in the Qingfeng Pavilion, the Beast Workshop is divided into three areas from the outside to the inside.
According to the level of the raised spirit beasts, the second area is domesticated by the second-grade spirit beasts, and the third area is the third-grade spirit beasts, which correspond to the foundation building period and the Jindan period among the human monks.
In order to prevent foreign enemies from destroying or spirit beasts escaping and injuring people, a large number of prohibitions have been arranged in these places.
And the first area is also the largest piece, including not only the domestication area of the first-grade spirit beast, but also the nursery room for all levels of spirit beast eggs, in addition to the reception room, the spirit animal adoption registration room, the logistics room and other areas.
Among them, the light Yipin spirit beast domestication area was divided into eight spirit beast circles, and Cui Ning was in charge of the last Huangzi Xin spirit beast circle.
Cui Ning's waist card can only be used in public places in the first area and in the Huangzi Xin Spirit Beast Circle, but this is enough for him.
Holding the waist card, Cui Ning was very excited in his heart, but with a flat expression on his face, he said goodbye to the low-level immortal cultivator who was in charge of distributing the waist card.
When he walked out of the room and came to a place where no one was around, Cui Ning threw and caught the waist card in the sky, and his plain face instantly changed to joy.
After a while, Cui Ning regained that flat expression and took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve, which contained a map of the first area of the Beast Workshop, as well as the distribution of prohibitions and the use of waist tokens, as well as some forbidden places.
After browsing for a while, Cui Ning drove the shuttle and flew towards the Huangzi Xin area of the Yipin Demon Beast Training Area.
******
"How can this beast workshop look even stricter than the Scripture Pavilion, there are no guards or prohibitions on the first floor of the Scripture Pavilion, but there are prohibitions everywhere here.
Although there is a waist card that can be eliminated, it is really troublesome. ”
Cui Ning said to himself in his heart as he walked. But that's fine, with these prohibitions, once someone breaks in, you can find out in advance.
After flying for about a quarter of an hour, Cui Ning finally came to the area where the spirit beast circle of the Yellow Character Xin was located.
It is a courtyard-like building, with houses on three sides, which belong to the steward and the boy below, and the food storage room for spirit animals.
On the other side is a small valley with a forbidden opening leading to it. If you enter from this cave, you can see the various monster caves that have been raised.
The courtyard looks relatively simple, but the overall is quite spacious, Cui Ning looked at it and felt that this place was quite suitable for him, so he walked into the courtyard with satisfaction.
At this moment, there are a few children dressed as children basking in the sun in the courtyard, because the handover of spirit beasts on the island is naturally received by the immortal cultivators in the valley, and ordinary people will not come here at all.
Therefore, these boys were stunned when they saw outsiders coming, and when they saw Cui Ning's cyan robe that represented the symbol of the immortal cultivator of this sect, they immediately ran over tremblingly and gave a salute.
Cui Ning swept over these boys' bodies with his spiritual sense, and found that there were no spiritual power fluctuations, and they were obviously ordinary people.
So he asked:
"Are you all feeding boys here?"
"If you return to the immortal master, several of us are children here."
Seeing the immortal master's question, several boys were a little restrained, and after a while, an older boy replied slowly.
"You're their leader?"
"Yes, Immortal Master."
The old boy replied truthfully, "The younger one's name is Bai Fan, and he is the acting steward here. ”
"Acting steward?"
Cui Ning was stunned, although the beast is also a miscellaneous task, but the position of steward in the sect has always been held by immortal cultivators in the Qi refining period, not to mention that it is an important resource in the pavilion. But this man is obviously an ordinary person......
As if seeing Cui Ning's doubts, Bai Fan smiled bitterly:
"Don't hide it from the immortal master, the position of the steward of the Huangzi Xin Spirit Beast Circle has been vacant for a long time, because the above has not sent a new immortal master down, so it will be replaced by the small one."
"I see."
Cui Ning nodded, and then smiled at everyone: "You don't have to worry about it in the future, I am the steward of the new sect, and from now on, this yellow character Xin spirit beast circle will be under my control." This is my token waist card, you see. ”
Bai Fan was not stupid, and obviously expected this, but his face was more respectful.
After taking the waist card to check that it was correct, he led the other boys to kneel down and salute together: "The disciples have seen the steward. ”
"Get up."
Cui Ning waved his hand: "Everyone else goes down, you stay!" ”
After dismissing the boys, Cui Ning left Bai Fan behind, preparing to let him take him to see in this courtyard.
In the next three months, this is his own territory, and Cui Ning naturally wants to find someone who understands the situation clearly.
Bai Fan nodded and respectfully led the way in front.
"Squeak!"
A quaint door slowly opened, and what appeared in front of Cui Ning's eyes were rows of shelves, on which there were many bottles and cans, as well as some brocade boxes, and some shelves even placed a lot of weeds without the slightest aura.
"Immortal Master, this is the food room where the spirit beasts are stored. The previous shelves are marked with the corresponding spirit animal names. ”
Following Bai Fan's hand, Cui Ning looked at the words marked on the shelf: "Iron Armored Beast", "Flame Tiger", "Double-headed Lion", "Three-Tailed Spirit Fox"...... It's all the names of spirit animals.
"What are these bottles and jars and brocade boxes used for?" Cui Ning asked casually.
"Hui Immortal Master, some spirit beasts need to be fed some elixirs and the like regularly, and these spirit objects will overflow the spiritual energy if they are stored in the open air, so they are all stored."
Bai Fan pondered for a while and said cautiously.
"I see, then you take me to the Beast Taming Valley, and tell me in detail about some of the daily work of this beast workshop on the way."
"It's an immortal master." Bai Fan guided in front with a respectful face.
Originally, becoming the steward of the beast workshop was only the first step in Cui Ning's plan, and the second step was how to sneak into the animal taming area to conduct experiments without anyone noticing.
However, after listening to Bai Fan's words, Cui Ning felt that he had a great chance of success, and he was secretly happy in his heart.
From the words of the boy Bai Fan, I learned that the work of this Huangzi Xin spirit beast circle is simple and boring, just enter the beast taming area every five days to provide enough spirit grass and food for the spirit beast, and then register the growth status of the spirit beast.
And on ordinary days, no one goes to the beast taming valley, and the reason is because these boys belong to ordinary people, and they can't stand it even if it's just a first-grade spirit beast under the pressure of spirit beasts for a long time.
Cui Ning pretended to be casual and said:
"I didn't expect the task of the steward of the Beast Workshop to be so easy, it seems that I can retreat and cultivate in the future."
"Immortal Master, don't worry, we don't have anything important to do in the Beast Workshop, it's nothing more than feeding the spirit beasts, and the little nature will do it for you." Bai Fan said flatteringly.
Cui Ning nodded, let him take a tour of the other buildings, and then chose a quieter house as his future residence here.
Then let Bai Fan gather all the boys and announce his rules to them:
The first is that you are not allowed to set foot within a 10-step radius of your home without permission; The other is for them to report to him before feeding the spirit animal.
The boys did not have the slightest objection to these two points, although they were just children who fed spirit beasts, they still understood some of the rules of the immortal cultivation world.
The cave mansions of the immortal masters are extremely taboo for others to break into, and Cui Ning, as the newly appointed steward, naturally has to set up his own "rules".
After sending the boy away, Cui Ning came to his residence, meditated on his plan in his heart, and then sat on the bed to meditate and rest.
