At this time, in the "Alchemy Pavilion" to the west of the inner sect of the "Yunxiang Sect", a little Dantong is carefully counting the various pills in the Danku, this scene looks very sparse and ordinary, it seems that this place has recovered its original atmosphere, but one thing is different is that there is no longer the existence of "Xu San" here, replaced by an inconspicuous little Dantong, perhaps this little Dantong has become the new owner of this "Alchemy Pavilion".

In order not to make people suspicious of this place, "Huang Yun" used the memory of "Wu Xiaobing" to sort out the medicinal materials needed for alchemy in the medicinal material warehouse of the Dan Pavilion as usual, as well as cleaning the dust behind the eaves, and at the same time going in and out of the underground Dan Library, making a very busy appearance.

It made people look like nothing unusual, at this time, a white-clothed disciple who looked very thin and a little tired came to the door, he walked to the door and clasped his fists respectfully;

"The disciple is" the "miscellaneous office" firewood cutting disciple "Hu Jie" came to the treasure pavilion to receive the elixir, and I hope that Elder Xu will allow it to be taken"

At this time, "Huang Yun", who was still counting the pills in the Danku, paused when he heard this, and then put down the work in his hand and quietly walked out of the Danku.

The "white-clothed disciple" found that no one answered, and asked again;

"The disciple is" the "Miscellaneous Office" firewood chopping disciple "Hu Jie" came to the Treasure Pavilion to receive the pill, if Elder Xu does not send the pill today, the disciple will come to get the pill tomorrow"

After the "white-clothed disciple" finished speaking, no one answered, so he sighed!

"Wait! Why are you in such a hurry to leave! Hu Jie, why do you have time to come and get the pill today?"

The "white-clothed disciple" looked back and found that it was the Dantong "Wu Xiaobing" of the "Alchemy Pavilion", and the "white-clothed disciple" was stunned for a moment, and then walked to the side of "Huang Yun" and whispered;

"The original Senior Brother Wu, where did you go a few days ago? Why haven't I seen your figure all this time, I thought you were missing too! Why are you alone in the Danfang today? Where have your master and the others gone?"

"Huang Yun" pretended to have a sad look on his face, scratched his head, and whispered;

"Hey, don't mention it! Didn't that old monster ask me to go down the mountain to find alchemy herbs for him! So it took some time, and I don't know where he went, and he didn't explain it to me, and you also know that my master's whereabouts are mysterious and erratic on weekdays, and he is often not in the Dan Pavilion, and I haven't seen his figure until now, so I guess he has gone down the mountain to look for medicine!"

After hearing this, "Hu Jie" nodded slightly! As if he was thinking! After thinking for a while, he mysteriously approached "Huang Yun" and whispered;

"Didn't Senior Brother Wu hear about the disappearance of a few disciples in the sect?

"Huang Yun" shook his head in confusion when he heard this!

"Hu Jie" watched left and right! whispered mysteriously;

"According to rumors, there are several disciples in the sect who have been missing for some time! The current disciples of the mountain guard are looking for the whereabouts of the missing disciples of the inner sect everywhere, I don't know what happened, in short, it is better to be careful."

"Huang Yun" pretended to be unaware and asked;

"There are disciples missing in the sect!

"Hu Jie" said again;

"Hey, didn't you say that you went down the mountain to look for medicinal herbs! Naturally, I don't know what happened a few days ago, I heard that those missing disciples have not reported to their respective management offices for several days, and it is said that they were killed by someone, and the killer is set in the "Yunxiang Sect"

"Huang Yun" made a frightened expression;

"No! This is the "Yunxiang Sect", who would have the audacity to dare to kill people in the "Yunxiang Sect""

"Hu Jie" is unimpressed;

"It's hard to say! Our sect is so big, and there are many disciples! It is inevitable that there will be people fishing in troubled waters, there are mixed fish and dragons here, people's hearts are unpredictable, maybe it was the disciples of the inner sect who did it, everyone in the current cultivation world is selfish, and it is common to kill people and seize treasures! Therefore, don't take it lightly, try your best to guard against those senior brothers and sisters who have higher cultivation."

"Huang Yun" asked suspiciously;

"Why should you be wary of those disciples who have a high cultivation, can't a disciple with a low cultivation kill someone?"

"Hu Jie" is noncommittal;

"You are stupid! those missing disciples are all above the seventh level of the Qi Condensation Period, if there is no higher cultivation than them, how can they be killed, they are not really stupid"

"Huang Yun" nodded knowingly, indicating understanding!

At this time, "Hu Jie" was a little eager to speak and stopped! His expression showed a hint of embarrassment, looking at "Huang Yun" and spitting out;

"Wu... Senior Brother Wu, do you still have a "Qi Cultivation Pill"! You see that I came to the "Alchemy Pavilion" to receive the pill this time, and your master is not here, I am afraid that I will return empty-handed again, these days in order to be able to obtain the "Qi Cultivation Pill" I have completed the workload of this month, and now my shoulders are still painful! The "Sundries Department" requires each of our firewood chopping disciples to have 30 loads of firewood per month, but I have cut more than 60 loads of firewood, and only then did I get the approval of receiving the Dan in advance, you see that this is the approval of the "Sundries Department" to supervise the senior brother

After speaking, he handed a small note to "Huang Yun" to read.

"Huang Yun" took it and took a look! The note read: The disciple who chopped wood overfulfilled his work and was approved to receive a one-month pill! The approver, the supervising disciple of the "Sundries Department" "Wang Chao"

It turns out that the low-level disciples of the "Yunxiang Sect" are all issued pills based on their workload, and each person is calculated according to three pills per month, for example, after a disciple of a certain management office completes the work tasks arranged by the sect, then he can receive three "Qi Cultivation Pills" this month, if he does not complete them, then he is not eligible to receive "Qi Cultivation Pills" this month, and he will even be punished, as for the disciples who have overfulfilled their work tasks, then they can receive two months of pills in advance, and they do not need to wait until next month, maybe "Alchemy Pavilion" When the elders saw that the disciples who took the pills performed outstandingly, they might reward them with more pills and encourage them.

Therefore, in order to be able to obtain the pill in advance, "Hu Jie" did not hesitate to work hard, and worked day and night to pick up firewood, and he was so tired that he couldn't straighten his waist, so he obtained the qualification to receive the pill in advance.

"Huang Yun" didn't speak! Just looked at a few lines on the note in a daze.

When Hu Jie saw this scene, he knew that "Wu Xiaobing" might not have any extra pills on his body! He looked depressed! sighed! patted "Wu Xiaobing" on the shoulder;

"Senior Brother Wu doesn't have to be embarrassed! I'm just asking! If not, forget it, wait for your master to come back! Senior brother, it's okay for me to come here to get the Dan."

"Huang Yun" pondered for a moment, looked at "Hu Jie" very puzzled, and asked;

"I said Senior Brother Hu! You picked up more than 60 loads of firewood, and you only got one month's worth of pills, so why don't you just pick 30 loads and receive a month's worth of pills, and you have to overfulfill, this is obviously not cost-effective, and this thankless work is probably a loss!

"Hu Jie" looked bitter and said dejectedly;

"Hey, Senior Brother Wu still doesn't understand, the hardships of our "sundries", in fact, we only have one pill left in our hands every month, so I can only work day and night to get two pills, otherwise I think when will I be able to enter the second layer realm of the first layer of condensation qi cultivation now?"

"Huang Yun" was even more puzzled after hearing this, and asked with a frown;

"That's not right, isn't it! There are rules in the sect, all disciples who complete the task can get three pills, how come there is only one left in your hands, is it possible that there are still people who can't profit from it?"

"Hu Jie" heard "Huang Yun"'s righteous and awe-inspiring questioning! Frightened, he made a silent gesture;

"Shhh They all have this situation, those disciples of the management usually exploit the property of the low-level handyman disciples in this way, such as the pills, every time we receive the pills, we will hand over some of the pills to the management disciples, this is called hard work, otherwise our future life will be much more difficult, maybe we will use some methods to deliberately make things difficult for us, so many disciples dare not speak out, they can only grit their teeth and swallow in their stomachs."

After hearing this, "Huang Yun" couldn't cry or laugh, and his heart was still very puzzled! There was still such an operation, what is it called? Is it called an intermediary fee? Or is it a protection fee?

"Huang Yun" said again;

"Isn't there anyone who cares, and those deacons and elders connive at these disciples to do nonsense."

"Hu Jie" shook his head and smiled bitterly;

"How can those elders care about this, they are in retreat all year round, how can they know about the affairs of the low-level disciples, and besides, these inconsequential chores can only be handed over to the management disciples, so we have no way to contact the higher-level elders, and they are also under the control of the supervising disciples, let alone expect someone to fight for us, hey! Don't think so much! Let it be."

"Hu Jie" sighed and continued;

"It's not like you named disciples, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking all day long, you don't have so much control, and you have your own masters, but some of us outer disciples are different, we do rough work all day long, and sometimes we can't even eat enough, hey!

"Hu Jie" was very depressed in his heart! He took a deep breath and said;

"Okay! Senior brother has been here for too long, and he has to be scolded by Senior Brother Supervisor when he goes back, so Senior Brother is here to say goodbye, and next time I have time to talk to Senior Brother Wu in Ah."

After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave! At this time, "Huang Yun" said;

"Senior Brother Hu! Stay! Actually, you are here to receive the pill, how can you return empty-handed! Although my master is not here, he instructed me that as long as someone comes to get the pill, I can distribute it, you wait here first, and let me enter the pill room to get the pill."

Ignoring Hu Jie's reaction, he walked straight into the Dan Pavilion.
