Chapter 17: A New Beginning
(Taiyin was finally fortunate to sign a contract, so he sent one more chapter to celebrate!)
Thank you for your care all the time, Taiyin will do its best to dedicate better chapters to everyone to read, thank you!
And Happy Christmas Eve to all!)
This seems to be a mountain peak in front of you, but in fact there is still a long way to go. After talking all the way, the four of them got acquainted with each other a lot, and from the conversation, Bai Chu learned that this big man surnamed Qiu was a relatively rare physical cultivator, named Qiu Youran.
And this side of the Tianxian people is called the Tianxian Association, referred to as the Tianxian Society.
"Since the three of them are willing to join the Tianxian Club for a long time, it would be great, I will take the three of you to receive the opening token of this fog array in a while, and then accompany the three of you to choose the cave mansion, and then the three allies will take a rest after dinner, and Qiu will talk to you about some related matters of this association tomorrow. ”
Qiu Youran spoke very politely, which was a little inconsistent with his sturdy body, and it was possible that they had not yet reached the point of revealing their true feelings, so they would be somewhat restrained.
"It's all up to Brother Qiu's arrangement. The three of them said politely in unison.
"The food in the alliance is not eaten for free, is it?" Bai Shu saw that everyone was not talking about it, so he asked.
"Haha, Brother Taiyin is really fast-talking, in fact, Qiu has always wanted to talk about it, but he was afraid of sweeping everyone's interest, so he didn't mention it, since Brother Taiyin mentioned it, then Qiu told the truth. Qiu Youran said with some embarrassment.
It turned out that the casual cultivators who practiced in the Tianxian Society had to hand over three spirit stones every month as the daily expenses of the association. The three spirit stones collected not only included the daily food cost, but also the degree of opening the mist array.
In order to be able to ensure the daily cultivation of the monks, it is inevitable to charge a certain fee, which is understandable.
Of course, the Huimeng will organize several times a month to hunt demon beasts in the mountains, so those three spirit stones will naturally be no problem.
If you're lucky, you can earn a year's worth of cultivation with a single hunt, and you can cultivate with peace of mind. As a new member of the alliance, there is no need to pay the spirit stone fee within half a year.
However, during this period, the daily meals did not have a trace of spiritual power, and were just ordinary meals. After officially paying the spirit stone after half a year, you can eat a meal with a little spiritual power, although the spiritual power is not much, but it still has certain benefits for cultivation.
In addition, for the monk who is unlucky, he can be graced to a maximum of one year, and if he still can't hand over the spirit stone after a year, he can only withdraw the token and invite the person out.
And those monks who have paid the spirit stone will definitely have bad luck and have a tight situation, and the alliance will give a three-month reprieve period for such monks, and can only provide ordinary meals, and when there are spirit stones, they need to make up for these three months of spirit stones.
Hearing this, the three of Bai Slash also understood, so it seemed that the payment of these three spirit stones was quite reasonable, and the three of them immediately expressed their acceptance.
Qiu Youran was overjoyed when he heard this, and then laughed heartily, and at this time, Qiu Youran was somewhat consistent with his body type.
After relieving their concerns, the four of them seemed to have a much smoother conversation.
"Brother Qiu, I don't know what kind of monk the building at the bottom of the mountain is inhabited?" Huang Chuan asked with interest.
"Oh, that is a mortal settlement. Qiu Youran replied without thinking.
The only building under the mountain, which was inhabited by ordinary mortals, made the three of them feel a little puzzled.
After Qiu Ran's explanation, the three of them suddenly came over.
It turned out that the mortals in that building were serving them as casual cultivators, and the usual meals and some small sundries were all made by these mortals.
Here, there is no war, and there is no hunger, and some game that the immortal cultivators hunt when they go out will also be directly given to these mortals.
Compared to the chaotic world of the outside world, this place is like a paradise, even if these people are asked to leave, they will never leave.
As a casual cultivator here, they will not bully these ordinary mortals, they respect each other and get along very well. There are even some monks who have married these mortal women, and their lives are quite enjoyable.
When he said this, Qiu Youran looked at the three of Bai Xue and found that these three people didn't have much reaction, so he shook his head slightly and continued to talk about other things.
After a meal, Qiu Youran took Bai Shu and the three of them to receive the token, and after taking the three of them to choose their respective cave mansions, the four of them separated. As for the food, they don't need to worry about it, and someone will bring it on time.
Bai Chop chose a place where the aura was not very strong, but it was a relatively remote cultivation cave, and the three of them didn't ask much about Bai Chop's move, and some immortal cultivators just liked to be quiet, which was also a very normal thing.
Opening the heavy wooden door of the cave, Bai Shu walked into the cave.
As soon as you enter it, you are surrounded by a piece of brightness, originally at the top of the cave, inlaid with more than ten fluorites of all sizes, and the whole hall shines brightly.
This fluorite is definitely a strange treasure in the mortal world, but in the eyes of immortal cultivators, it is just a tool used to illuminate, and it is of little use.
In addition to a hall, there are three private rooms, and after checking them one by one, it turns out that these three private rooms are the living room, the practice room, and the utility room.
In the living room, there is an extra cubicle with a natural hot spring pool, which is small but large enough for one person.
Seeing this, Bai Shu suddenly felt that the three spirit stone flowers were worth the money, not to mention that they were free to use in the first half of the year, which made him feel a lot more at ease.
Taking off his clothes, Bai Chop immediately entered the hot spring pool and washed it beautifully. And before that, he had only found a stream with water and simply cleaned it a few times, compared to the hot springs here, it was really heaven and earth.
And there is a hot spring in the living room to enjoy, which is not a treatment that is not available in the Heavenly Wind Sect!
In the entire cave, there is almost nothing but this hot spring. And there is only an ordinary wooden bed in the living room, and with the character of Bai Chop, some of the applied furnishings still have to be purchased, but this is not in a hurry.
At noon on the second day, Qiu Youran gathered the three of Bai Qi together and explained to the three of them the distribution of forces in this Fulong Mountain, as well as the situation of some demon beasts and spirit grasses.
Bai Shu learned from Qiu Youran's mouth that this Fulong Mountain was actually not very peaceful, especially the two immortal cultivation forces of Huang Chao and Hanxuzi, who were adjacent to the Alliance of the Association, were basically in a situation where water and fire were incompatible.
Therefore, when encountering Huang Chao and Hansuzi's group of monks, they either dodged from a distance, or killed each other, and there was basically no possibility of the third middle.
As for the other immortal cultivation forces, it is basically the relationship between the well water and the river water.
Then Qiu Youran explained some trivial matters, and gave three detailed maps of this place to the three of them, and after lunch together, they separated.
