CHAPTER XVII

At the foot of Cuiyunfeng Mountain, there are several streams, intertwined with each other around the bamboo forest, in a stream, a young man is deeply rooted in a fierce man, showing his head, the long hair of the shawl is a little scattered, the ordinary face with a hint of rustic is not so handsome, the skin is slightly dark, the only thing that makes people feel good is a good tendon meat, neither too strong, but also not thin

This is Tao Yunqing, three years ago he was still weak, he was malnourished for a long time when he was a child, and he lived better when he was in Jinglun Academy, but he was busy studying, and he didn't make up for it, and now he has a body of tendon meat, which benefits from the cultivation of "Zhangliu Golden Body", after he came to the Immortal Sect, he knew that this was the practice of walking the body, and the mana refined by this exercise was supplemented by the physical body, so Tao Yunqing felt that the Qi refining method of the Immortal Sect was different from that of Zhangliujin, at first he thought that the two were in conflict, and then after listening to the sermon, Only then did he realize that the two did not conflict, although he did not force it, but he did not stop cultivating this method, although he still stayed in the cultivation of the second volume, but he had already improved a lot, which gave him a slightly better body

Physical cultivation and Dharma cultivation are not in conflict, but it is difficult to achieve the Great Dao with both both, and there are few physical cultivation in ancient times, not only because it is difficult to cultivate, but because of the lack of many exercises, so Tao Yunqing also regards it as a way to exercise the body, and its main cultivation is still the Qi refining method of the Immortal Sect

It has been three years since he came to the Immortal Sect, and in these three years, his mana has reached the peak of the fourth layer of qi refining, which is incredible for a person of his qualifications, but he understands very well that this is all thanks to the lotus lamp, for three years, he has used the lotus lamp to cultivate every day, and then he replanted all the mana of cultivation into herbs, and then used the lotus lamp to cultivate, in this way, his mana is extremely pure, and it is deeper than others, and it also reduces the cultivation speed, if he wants, he is now at least a monk of the sixth layer of qi refining, However, the mana is not as pure and deep as it is now

But even so, with his qualifications, the cultivation of the fourth layer of qi refining was enough to make people stunned

Earlier, Senior Brother Wu did not test his qualifications, because what Hongchen introduced was to be received no matter what, Tao Yunqing also understood that his qualifications might not be very good, and then he spent ten contribution points to do the test, the four attributes lack fire, the lowest qualification, Tao Yunqing who learned the results was depressed for a while, but he was not depressed, he was more confident than others to be able to build a foundation, but the only thing he was worried about was whether the wick of the lotus lamp was a consumable, and he would not be able to refine the weapon, if the lamp did not shine, he could not do anything, It is impossible for him to spend a lot of time learning the art of refining weapons now

But fortunately, as long as the wick of the lotus lamp is on it, it will always shine, and the light has not weakened in the past three years, thinking that all magic weapon arrays either replenish their own mana, or the spirit stone urges, like the lotus lamp, which does not need mana injection or spirit stone supplementation can always shine, there is no record in the books of the Immortal Sect, but it also shows that this thing is extraordinary

At the end of the three-year period, Tao Yunqing's introductory task has also been completed, due to the effect of the lotus lamp, he has made many herbs mature early in the past three years, but most of them have turned into his body tonic, because after all, this round of rice as long as the herbs can keep up with the expectations of those bigwigs, and the rest of the excess comes out, all of which belong to Tao Yunqing, who takes care of the rounds, not to mention that this garden is just a low-level medicine garden, and there will be no bigwig-level people who pay attention, Tao Yunqing has read a lot of herbal books in the past three years because of guarding the peach garden, The knowledge of herbal medicine is also quite good

After he handed in the introductory task, he took a bath in this stream, and then he was going to find Senior Brother Wu, he had already refined qi at the fourth level, and he could learn the five elements spell at the fifth level of qi refining, and when he learned to fly with imperial weapons, he would no longer use his legs to hurry, and it was really envious to see those fellow brothers flying through the sky on weekdays

When I came to Wu Da's residence, I found that he was not there, the gatehouse was closed and there was a lot of dust, it seemed that he hadn't been back for a long time, and I remembered that the last time I saw him was more than two months ago, when it was the March Missionary Day, that is, every March, there was an elder in the main hall of Cuiyun Peak to explain the cultivation experience to the disciples of the Qi refining period, exchange experiences, and answer questions! On this kind of day, it is full of people, Tao Yunqing has been here for three years, listened to ten sermons, and benefited a lot each time

Wu Yong is not there, this is troublesome, because after three years of cultivation, Tao Yunqing rarely knows his fellow disciples, and his nominal master has never seen him

However, he had heard Wu Yong say that as soon as he reached the fourth floor of the Qi refining period, he had to go to the small Five Elements Spell Jade Jian, which was the Five Elements Spell Technique, and the collection of this kind of spell was not the Gong Pavilion, but the place where the sundries were managed

The miscellaneous hall is not big, a bungalow, it looks very simple from the outside, and there are two disciples in Tsing Yi inside, who are in charge of the stewardship here!

These two people are fat and thin, and they speak kindly, they have checked their bodies, Tao Yunqing soon got the magic of the Five Elements Spell, and also knew that after completing the novice task, they can create a cave to practice at will in Cuiyun Peak, and they can also pay a certain contribution to rent a house, the poor disciples are all starting the cave by themselves, and the rich disciples are renting the sect's house, this is because, the closer to the peak, the heavier the aura, the more convenient it is to cultivate, but the peaks are where some of the main halls of the sect are located, and there are no people living here. And a little lower, there is the house built by the sect, which is where the disciples who pay the contribution degree live, so the more you contribute, the more cultivation resources you can get, and the better place to live, and those who do not have the contribution or are not enough can only find a place to start a cave by themselves

"How much does it cost to rent a house?" Tao Yunqing asked

The fat disciple replied with a smile: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive, three hundred contributions for a month!" ”

"Three hundred are gone, junior brother, you forgot, there are a few houses that Uncle Liu let be vacant!" The thin man reminded

"Oh! By the way, senior brother, you didn't remind me, but I forgot! The fat Taoist patted his head and suddenly realized: "I'm sorry, this junior brother, there are no more than three hundred, only a little inferior, and two hundred contributions are needed!" ”

Tao Yunqing didn't expect to need so much contribution, and he only had so much contribution in the jade card on his body now, where could he afford the rent, but he didn't give up, and asked again: "Is there anything cheaper?" ”

"This is already the cheapest, if you don't want to pay the contribution degree, you can only go to the mountainside to create a cave mansion by yourself!"

Tao Yunqing was silent, two hundred contributions a month, which was too expensive for him, but once the entry novice task is over, the sect will not arrange tasks for you, and they will all pick it up by yourself and earn contribution degrees in exchange for cultivation resources

Most of the sect's tasks are at the top of the peak, if you create your own cave, if you want to take on the task of fixed duty, you have to climb from the mountainside to the top of the mountain every day, because this kind of task rewards and contribution points, and the work is simple

The cave house created by himself has neither protection nor prohibition, nor abundant aura, so most disciples are reluctant to start the cave house by themselves, but rent a house

Tao Yunqing thought about it for a long time, and finally decided not to rent a house, but to find a place to open a cave mansion by himself, and it was a big deal to take on some travel tasks in exchange for contribution points in the future, and more importantly, he had a lotus lantern in his hand, and this kind of treasure must not let outsiders know its secrets

After Tao Yunqing made a decision, he thanked the fat and thin people and said goodbye

The fat Taoist stopped him and said, "Senior brother, are you going to start a cave by yourself?" ”

Tao Yunqing thought to himself, this matter is not worth hiding, so he nodded, but he thought: He stopped himself, he must want to rent a house here, after all, he is doing tasks here, presumably let other disciples rent a house, he will also get a lot of benefits! Thinking of this, he made up his mind that no matter what he said, he would not be able to contribute

"That junior brother, senior brother knows about an abandoned cave mansion, the two of us found out not long ago, although the cave mansion has reported damage, but it can still live in people, and the aura is not bad, although it is remote! But it's better than junior brother, you are going to open a cave now, it is time-consuming and laborious, but I don't know if my junior brother is willing to live? ”

"So it is very good! I don't know where it is? Tao Yunqing didn't expect this fat senior brother to say this, and she was a little surprised

The fat Taoist immediately told Tao Yunqing about the place, and told Tao Yunqing that he didn't need to spend a contribution in this place, which made Tao Yunqing embarrassed, but he had no long things, so he insisted on drawing a contribution to the fat Taoist

"The contribution degree is exempt, I also see that junior brother, you have just started, and it is difficult to bear such a large amount of contribution! I'll tell you this place when I make you a friend, my surname is Liu, my name is Liu Qing, outsiders call me Liu Fatzi, you can call me Senior Brother Liu! Liu Qing said with a smile on his face

"In Xia Tao Yunqing, thank you Senior Brother Liu!"

"Well, Senior Brother Tao, everyone will be friends in the future, if you have any difficulties, you can come to me, it's not early now, you can rush to the cave to clean up, it will take a little time for people to live in that place, I won't keep you!"

After sending Tao Yunqing away, the thinner Taoist priest came to Liu Qing and asked, "Why did you tell that kid about that place, at first glance, he is a poor bastard, and he can still make some contributions to others after keeping it!" When did you become so generous."

Liu Qing glanced at the thin Taoist priest and said, "Do you know that this Tao Yunqing has been in our sect for a few years?" ”

Didn't he say that? Three years! The thin Taoist priest replied

"But just now we tested him, he has already reached the peak of the fourth layer of qi refining! Three years of four-layer cultivation, tsk, this qualification is almost up to those Heavenly Spirit Roots! This kind of qualification is worthy of our friendship! ”

"However, aren't those disciples of Tianlinggen all taken care of by the sect, how can they be so poor that they don't have the contribution to renting a house, besides, how do you know that he didn't start with cultivation or some other reason?"

"Hmph, whether he is a genius or not, or he is a waste, he is starting with cultivation, it will not be a bad thing for us to make friends with him, this person, I have been with him for a long time, his personality is still relatively introverted, there will be no trouble, even if there is something, he will not look for you, and that cave mansion is like chicken ribs for us, the food is tasteless, it is a pity to abandon it, use it to make friends with a disciple who looks promising, it is not a loss!"
