Chapter 8: New Neighbors
At the foot of Shouyun Mountain, the end of the T-shaped courtyard.
The mundane body forging technique that I bought last time in the fang market was scattered on the ground wantonly.
Wang Shuyue's red lips pursed lightly, gritted her teeth and silently endured the pain of forging, and her exhausted husband was panting heavily, sweat dripping, salty.
In the midst of the aura surging, the girl seemed to be on the waves, feeling that her entire body was floating, and even her soul would be thrown out of her body by the waves at any time.
She hit a real fire, tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and she accumulated strength to follow the guidance of the exercises, twisted her waist and limbs, and reversed the attack and defense.
Zhao Qing was defeated, played the last aura dragon, and lay on the ground.
Tired, he felt a little in a trance, as if he saw the silver ear ornaments he bought for his wife half a month ago shaking in front of his eyes, up and down......

"Husband." The wife called softly and encouraged: "Husband don't have to be discouraged, husband will definitely be able to break through the late stage of qi refining and be promoted to an outer disciple!" β
He was noncommittal, and his strength was weak: "When you reach the innate realm, I will take you to test the spiritual root." β
"I must have no qualifications, or my father wouldn't have given up on us." Wang Shuyue smiled bitterly and shook her head slightly.
Zhao Qing was silent, and after a little reassurance, he reminded his wife to practice the Fa diligently, and if there was anything she didn't understand, she could ask him.
After that, he began to meditate to restore his aura and continue his proficiency in the Liver Qi Gathering Pill.
Early the next morning.
There was a knock on the courtyard door, which surprised Zhao Qing.
Who will knock on their door?
"Shuyue, you clean up the room, I'll take a look."
After that, he straightened his robe and went out into the courtyard.
The person outside the door heard the movement, and the rhythm of knocking on the door slowed down: "Senior brother, we are disciples of T-shaped No. 59 Courtyard, and we have come to visit. β
It turned out to be a new neighbor......
Zhao Qing relaxed and stepped forward to open the courtyard door.
A group of young men and women, in two rows, standing in a straight posture and looking very grand.
"Junior brothers and sisters, please come in."
Zhao Qing turned sideways to welcome a group of Xiaobai into the courtyard, and then closed the courtyard door. I also came to visit the neighbors, so naΓ―ve must be a new handyman disciple yesterday.
"I don't have any furniture, everyone can sit casually, my surname is Zhao, and my single name is a Qing character."
The young man in the lead carried a pot of wine, put it on the steps, and said respectfully: "Senior Brother Zhao, this is the wine that I made yesterday when I was wandering around Danxia City, although it is not a good product, but the taste is still very mellow. β
Zhao Qing glanced at it.
The flask is small and exquisite, and there is a faint surge of aura on it, which does not look cheap.
But this is just a look, he knows very well in his heart, there are many profiteers who specialize in pit Xiaobai in Dongfang, if he is not mistaken, where does this pot of wine come from.
A group of young men and women stepped forward to salute.
The leader was named Miao Jian, and he explained his intentions: "Senior Brother Zhao, that's the case. When I moved in yesterday, most of the T-shaped courtyard was empty, except for the gate of the last courtyard at the foot of the mountain. After much inquiry, it was found that there were no new disciples staying here. β
"Thinking that the senior brother should be extremely extraordinary, I thought about coming to the door to ask for advice, but now it seems that the senior brother is really unfathomable."
He scanned the entire courtyard meaningfully, but the huge courtyard was inhabited by no one else, which already explained a lot.
You must know that their new disciples are all more than ten people in the same courtyard, although it is not the same room for men and women, but it is also very inconvenient.
Zhao Qing listened to the other party's compliment and was full of slander. You can also have three Qi Gathering Pills a month.
Seeing that he didn't speak, everyone didn't care, and someone asked: "Senior Brother Zhao, I'm just here, I don't know what rules there are in this stove workshop, so as not to cause trouble in our carelessness." β
Zhao Qing couldn't help but think that he was just like them when he first started.
As soon as he turned around, he sat down on the steps and said, "There are not too many rules for miscellaneous disciples, as long as they complete the tasks assigned by the outer senior brother on time, they can move freely. β
"The disciples of our stove workshop are treated much better than others, the place to receive the task is in the stove room, you can eat by the way, the spiritual porridge of the sect is not comparable to ordinary dishes. Long-term consumption is good for the body. β
"Although Caofang Mining will also come to eat, but there are not many, and it will take ten days and a half a month to go to mining, so how can I have time to come to eat. Caofang ...... The disciples of the grass house live a relatively luxurious life, and they don't come here much, so you don't have to see too much outside the stove room. β
He continued to output, and everyone who spoke couldn't help but show joy. Good stove room! Miscellaneous servants are good! The task is simple and easy. That's how he was deceived back then, and he even felt that the miscellaneous servants were actually more comfortable than the outer and inner disciples.
But apparently, this is not the case.
"After the task is completed, you can go down the mountain to take a walk, Danxia City is the senior brother of our sect on duty, although the security is average, but wearing our robes will still be taken care of. There are a lot of sundries for sale in the stall area of Dongfang, and there are scattered Qidan magic weapons, but they require a certain amount of eyesight. β
Many Xiaobai listened attentively, this is a detour taken by the predecessors, and they have to be written down.
"Nanfang is the closest to the city gate, and most of them are the property of the senior brother of the sect, and there are many Danfang. Beifang is a gathering place for scattered cultivation, and the charm magic weapon and magic spirit array can be bought there. And there are houses for rent, the rent is not very expensive, it is inconvenient to live in the mountains, you can go and have a look......"
After a long time, a disciple arched his hand and said, "Senior Brother Zhao, I heard that the miscellaneous disciples of our Danxia Sect will distribute three Qi Gathering Pills every month, I don't know when exactly?" β
Sure enough, just like I was at the beginning, I came for the Qi Gathering Pill.
"In the first ten days of each month, go to the Dantang to collect it by yourself, it is recommended that you finish it before the ninth day of the new year, the Dantang is not open every day, and it cannot be accumulated, so the sooner the better. If you really can't leave, you can ask the same door to lead it on your behalf. β
After listening to Zhao Qing's explanation, everyone was overjoyed, where is this recruiting disciples, it is simply charity!
After finishing work, you can go shopping casually, you can eat and live and receive pills, and you don't have to worry about life problems at all!
Some people have begun to fantasize about a better life in the future.
"Let's go to Beifang to have a look, Senior Brother Zhao said that there is a house for rent there, and then we will come to the sect every morning to eat and work, and go home in the evening." Some nuns became excited and discussed with their fellow sisters.
There are also male cultivators who have a beautiful imagination. "Indeed, as long as you finish the task, you can go down the mountain, and we can also go to Dongfang to set up a stall in the future."
Zhao Qing smiled and said nothing.
Yes, you can go wherever you want, if you still have the strength after completing the task......
Someone else asked, "Senior brother, what about Xifang?" What's in West Fang? β
Zhao Qing smiled and retracted, and rarely admonished: "It's better not to go to Xifang, there are a lot of fish and dragons there, and they are all seniors in the late stage of qi refining, and even occasionally there are foundation-building seniors who appear." β
β¦β¦
"What kind of task is your yard assigned?" He asked.
Miao Jian bowed: "Senior Brother Hui, we are responsible for carrying water, so it won't be too much effort." We can divide the total number of tasks, each person is responsible for a part of the journey, and the handover is halfway through, and the task should be completed quickly. β
The crowd paused for a while before they got up and prepared to take their leave.
Before going out, Zhao Qing thought about sending something to his neighbors, thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing at home, so he couldn't give the deer antler tiger whip, right?
He pondered for a long time and shouted to the house, "Shuyue, bring the spirit seed we packed up yesterday." β
The girl carefully held the freshly dried seeds and walked out of the room.
Everyone was a little surprised, they couldn't see through Zhao Qing's cultivation, but they could feel that this senior brother's wife should be a mortal.
Although he was puzzled, he still kept complimenting, and praised Wang Shuyue with a smile.
"Senior brother is relatively idle and has no long things. You have just moved into the courtyard, and the courtyard must be relatively empty, so you can take these spirit seeds and plant them, take care of them, and you will have a good harvest in the future. β
Zhao Qing watched everyone leave with a smile, as if he was watching the growth of a new crop of leeks.
Young...... That's nice!
