After listening to Qin Wen's question, Duan Yi frowned slightly and said: "Every time this matter of assigning the master and miscellaneous servants, it is up to our Valley Master Senior Brother of the Wind Valley, as for where it will be assigned, I really don't know what it will be assigned to, but don't worry, these are just expedient measures, after Shen Danshi is out of the customs, if you really want to learn alchemy, I will arrange time for you to go to the Medicine Valley to take the entrance test of the Dan Master." ”

Qin Wen nodded and said, "This time I can enter the valley, it is all up to Mr. Duan to bring it in, as long as it is Mr. Duan's arrangement, the disciples will obey everything." ”

Duan Xi smiled slightly and said: "Since you say so, then I can rest assured, even if Shen Danshi didn't accept you as an apprentice after leaving the customs this time, I will contact other Dan masters in the Medicine Valley in the future, and find a suitable master for you when the time comes, after all, the matter of Tianxin Cao is still thanks to you." ”

As soon as he said this, Qin Wen heard the chaotic sound in the hall just now, and suddenly became silent, and when he turned around, there was already a middle-aged man in a yellow Taoist robe standing above the main hall, holding three long whiskers under his chin, and was looking at the disciples below lightly.

Duan Xi said in a low voice at this time: "This is our Valley Master of Wind Valley, you can go in quickly." ”

Qin Wen nodded, and quickly entered the hall, Duan Xi paused slightly, and then slowly walked into the hall, bowed to the middle-aged man in the yellow Taoist robe and said, "Senior Brother Sun, the junior brother is here to participate in this assignment of teachers and miscellaneous labor, this time the senior brother wants to help the junior brother one or two." ”

The middle-aged man in the yellow robe smiled and said: "Senior Brother Duan, there are still more junior disciples in the valley this time, and I, as a senior brother, are not good at favoring one over the other, after this period of observation, does the junior brother have any favorite disciples?"

Duan Xi didn't say his name directly, but rounded the middle-aged man's question, and then Qin Wen saw that four or five more high-level monks had entered the hall, and after greeting the middle-aged man, they all chatted in twos and threes.

After about half a pillar of incense, the middle-aged man saw that there were no monks outside and came in again, so he coughed lowly, and the entire hall suddenly fell silent, the middle-aged man waved his hand to the high-ranking monk next to him, and the high-level monk got up and stood up in order, and then all the beginner disciples were also divided into two teams and lined up in turn, although Qin Wen had not experienced this kind of scene, but he still stood in Zuihou's position.

The middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction and said: "Today is the day when we assign disciples in Wind Valley, and it is also a big event, after each disciple is assigned to the master, he will also be assigned the miscellaneous labor done in the past fifteen years, once the miscellaneous labor is assigned, he must do his best to complete the task, and each task has a corresponding reward, but if it is the year-end assessment every year, those who have not completed the task for three consecutive years will be automatically eliminated from the valley." ”

After hearing this, the faces of the disciples below gradually became solemn, and the middle-aged man continued at this time: "There will be a master in each sect below who will select a disciple first, and then I will distribute them in order. ”

After the voice was spoken, the middle-aged man waved his hand to the high-ranking monks, and the high-ranking monks all smiled and arched their hands towards the middle-aged man, which should have signaled the middle-aged man to pick first, and the middle-aged man also called out the name of a disciple as soon as possible, and the disciple standing at the front couldn't hide his joy and walked out of the team, standing behind the middle-aged man.

The disciples below also looked at this disciple with envious looks, Qin Wen knew that this should be the personal disciple selected by the middle-aged man, his heart was very calm, as long as he could stay in Hanfeng Valley, it didn't matter who he was, as for the miscellaneous labor, it was nothing more than carrying water, chopping wood and other chores, Qin Wen didn't take it to heart.

Even if he was assigned to the Yanmo Forest to chop wood, with Qin Wen's chopping speed, it was estimated that he could top the number of firewood chopped by other disciples in ten days in one day, so he stood at the end of the team at will, waiting for the end of the assignment of teachers and miscellaneous labor.

Next, each high-level monk called out the name of a disciple, and the disciples who called the name also stood behind the high-level monk who chose him, Qin Wen knew that he was not a talisman master, so it was normal for him not to be a disciple by himself, plus he had been in the Medicine Valley during this time, and there should be no monk who could observe him except for Duan Xi.

After picking out the disciples of the personal lineage, the middle-aged people began to name them one by one, zuihou Qin Wen was still assigned to Duan Xi's door, and Duan Xi, who was standing among the high-ranking monks, couldn't help but look at Qin Wen and nodded slightly.

After assigning the master, the middle-aged man began to distribute miscellaneous labor, and sure enough, as Qin Wen thought, in addition to the personal disciples, the rest of the beginner disciples were assigned to chores such as chopping wood, until Qin Wen's name was read, the middle-aged man couldn't help frowning, and asked the high-ranking monk next to him: "This time we have selected one more disciple, I don't know where we still need a beginner disciple?"

These high-level cultivators all shook their heads, the number of these miscellaneous servants is fixed, and they are changed every fifteen years, and after some of them are expelled from the valley if they can't complete the task, there will naturally be old disciples who can't reach the cultivation speed on top, and now there is one more person, this can only depend on how the middle-aged people choose.

At this time, a high-ranking monk in a white shirt next to him walked to the middle-aged man's side, whispered a few words, and the middle-aged man's eyes lit up and said: "Qin Wen, since you are zuihou, then go and guard the remnant talisman cliff, there is no fixed task there, as long as you clean the cliff on weekdays." ”

Qin Wen saw the pity in the eyes of some high-level monks, and knew that it should be more difficult to do this kind of miscellaneous work, but where was this remnant talisman cliff, he didn't know exactly how to clean it, but now he only had to take one step at a time, anyway, Duan Xi also said just now, after Shen Danshi came out, let him be tested, maybe he wouldn't be able to stay in that place for a few days before returning to the Medicine Valley.

After all the miscellaneous servants were arranged, both the beginner disciples and the personal disciples followed behind their master and walked out of the main hall, and after leaving the palace gate, Duan Xi deliberately came to Qin Wen's side and said: "The Remnant Fu Cliff is a place far away from our Wind Valley, and there are also regulations on the cliff, only one day out of every five days can go down the cliff, after you get to the place, you can't come down at will, but the time above can still be at your disposal, as for Shen Danshi's affairs, I will arrange it as soon as possible." ”

Qin Wen nodded, and then Duan Xi asked a yellow-shirted disciple to take Qin Wen to the Remnant Fu Cliff, Qin Wen followed the yellow-shirted disciple and walked out of the Wind Valley, and after leaving the Wind Valley, the yellow-shirted disciple looked at Qin Wen and said: "This junior brother, the place of the Remnant Fu Cliff is too far away, and the junior brother will still have to find a way to transfer it back in the future." ”

Qin Wen hadn't understood what kind of miscellaneous duties this guard of the Remnant Fu Cliff was in the hall just now, and it was not appropriate for him to ask in front of the public, but now when he heard the yellow-shirted disciple speak to him, he asked: "Senior brother, I have been in the Medicine Valley since I first came, and I don't know what the job of guarding the Remnant Fu Cliff is, Senior Brother, you can tell me in detail." ”

The yellow-shirted disciple hesitated for a moment and said: "I haven't been to the Remnant Talisman Cliff for a long time, and basically I haven't been to the Remnant Talisman Cliff, if I want to explain it in detail, I still can't say it clearly, and when I get to the place, after handing over to the disciple who guarded the Remnant Talisman Cliff, he will explain the rules to you clearly." ”

Qin Wen didn't expect that he would get such an answer, so the two of them fell silent and kept walking in the southeast direction, and when they walked out of the first hillside, the yellow-shirted disciple said to Qin Wen: "Now that we are out of the valley, we have been walking too slowly, why don't I take you to fly over." ”

Qin Wen nodded and said, "Senior brother, you just go first, I can follow behind." ”

The yellow-shirted disciple flew towards the mountain, and after more than a dozen zhang, he turned to look at Qin Wen, and saw that Qin Wen could keep up with him, so he was relieved to keep heading towards the southeast, and after flying for more than an hour, the yellow-shirted disciple pointed to a faint mountain cliff in front of him and said: "Senior brother, there is the remnant cliff, you have to remember the journey back and forth, and you will come back by yourself in the future." ”

After Qin Wen nodded and agreed, he couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: "No wonder all the people showed different expressions when they heard that they were assigned to the Remnant Fu Cliff, from this distance, even if they can go back once every five days, there will be nearly three hours back and forth, and whether they can see their master at that time is another matter." ”

After passing through a jungle, the yellow-shirted disciple took Qin Wen to the edge of the cliff, Qin Wen looked at the flat stone cliff with a radius of 100 zhang, a small wooden house was built alone, and a disciple was sitting in front of the house lying on a chaise longue boredly, diagonally facing the sunset in the west, and when he saw Qin Wen and the two approaching, he waved his hand and said, "Which valley are you from? Just put the remnants here." ”

The yellow-shirted disciple and Qin Wen were stunned for a moment, and the yellow-shirted disciple immediately realized that the disciple guarding the remnant talisman cliff had misunderstood his intentions, so he spoke: "This senior brother, I am here to bring a new disciple to replace your miscellaneous servants, if the senior brother has leisure now, just hand over the matter at hand to this junior brother, and we can go back." ”

This time, it was the turn of the disciple on the recliner who was stunned, raised his eyes and saw that the yellow-shirted disciple and Qin Wen didn't mean to make fun of him, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "It turned out to be two junior disciples, I'll be fine now, you wait a minute, I'll dispose of today's remnants first." ”

As he spoke, he seemed to remember that Qin Wen was here to replace him, so he turned to Qin Wen and said, "This junior brother, you come with me, and I will hand over the affairs on this cliff to you first." ”

Qin Wen looked at his incoherent and helpless actions, and also understood that staying on this remnant cliff for fifteen years was indeed a great torture for the psychology of low-level monks, and he was a little curious, what kind of things did he have to do every day on this remnant cliff?
