My cultivation is too simple

Chapter 8 Light and Shadow Sword Technique
Spiritual sand is an item formed by breaking low-grade spiritual stones.

There is a small amount of spiritual energy in a piece of spiritual sand, which can help cultivators practice.

Most of the time it can also be used as a trading currency.

Generally speaking, it takes one hundred spiritual sands to exchange for one low-grade spiritual stone.

According to Huang Li, things like spiritual sand can only be exchanged for some spiritual sand for daily cultivation by relying on fish labor to seize the spiritual fish and sell them to Neiji.

It is impossible for the master's family to waste spiritual sand on fish servants like them.

Zhou You also believed what Huang Li said.

After all, if the fisherman reaches the foundation-building stage, he will be able to leave the family.

Which family's children would help the fisherman to practice?

So Xiao Yueying not only gave away silver coins, but also spiritual sand.

This is very wrong!

Zhou You recalled Zhao Bin back then. Zhao Bin would hand over a certain amount of spiritual fish every month, but Xiao Yueying never said anything satisfactory.

Generally speaking, Xiao Yueying just sends them away casually.

There's no way that the eldest lady Xiao Yueying has taken a liking to me, right?
Zhou Youbai was puzzled and could only put the matter aside for the time being.

In the end, Zhou You put away the spiritual sand and came to Neiji with all the silver in his pocket.

This time he came to Neiji mainly to buy a martial arts manual.

"Since even the most basic life skills such as sweeping the floor and farming can gain mental and physical strength bonuses, if you practice martial arts, the bonuses may be even higher."

Zhou You thought to himself.

Practicing martial arts is not only to obtain various ability bonuses, but also to improve one's own strength.

Zhao Bin's disappearance and Xiao Yueying's abnormal reward made Zhou You feel a great sense of crisis.

You must find ways to enhance your own strength.

After much deliberation, only martial arts can improve one's strength in a short period of time.

Ever since I learned that I could escape from slavery after building a foundation, I became more motivated to travel around.

……

In the world of immortality, basically no one practices martial arts, so martial arts is not valuable.

Zhou You spent 15 taels of silver in Neiji and bought a sword manual called "Light and Shadow Sword Techniques".

The swordsmanship is quite extreme and does not require internal strength to be used.

The only drawback is that it requires very high reflexes and concentration.

If you want to use it, you must find an extremely suitable opportunity and use the refraction and reflection of light to achieve the best effect. You can kill instantly with one sword!

In fact, Zhou You didn't want to buy this sword manual, but he had no choice - this was already the cheapest martial arts manual.

Martial arts are worthless, but only for those who cultivate immortality.

You know, for real immortal cultivators, getting money is as simple as eating and drinking. In their world, money is worthless.

Therefore, even the most common martial arts secret manual is worth dozens of taels of silver.

This book "Light and Shadow Sword Technique" is already the cheapest martial arts book I can find anywhere.

The seller even felt that Zhou You was being treated badly and even gave Zhou You a rusty iron sword as an extra gift.

The main reason is that no one practices this swordsmanship in the ordinary world, and no one can master it at all.

Zhou You happened to meet the requirements for practicing this swordsmanship, so Zhou You bought it.

……

After returning to Erhai Lake, Zhou You first caught today's spirit fish and processed the vegetables in the vegetable garden, and then returned to the house to read the sword manual.

It was getting dark now, so I lit a kerosene lamp.

I don’t know if it’s because he has practiced immortality, but Zhou You quickly mastered the “Light and Shadow Sword Technique”.

He followed the movements on the sword manual, and with the dim yellow light of the kerosene lamp, after only half an hour of practice, the golden seal in the sea of ​​consciousness began to sparkle.

Then, a line of writing appeared. [Light and Shadow Sword Technique (1/100): A very simple sword technique, you can practice it five times a day and you can master it in a month! 】

When Zhou You saw that line of writing, he nodded with satisfaction.

January is not that long.

I just don’t know what kind of bonus I will get after practicing it.

After getting started with "Light and Shadow Sword Technique", Zhou You did not stop there. Instead, he continued to practice in the house with the Tetanus Sword for a long time. He did not stop until the progress reached 5.

After sweating profusely from traveling around, I went to Erhai Lake to take a bath, then returned to the house to eat something and start to rest.

Just like that, another ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period of time, life traveling around was quite pleasant.

Every day is about practicing, then watering the vegetable fields, fishing for spiritual fish, and practicing "Light and Shadow Sword Technique" at night.

However, I discovered something strange while traveling around.

The vegetables he planted seemed to mature faster than normal.

For example, for Chinese cabbage, generally speaking, the normal maturity cycle takes two months from sowing to maturity.

However, the Chinese cabbage planted by Youyou was almost mature in just one and a half months. I don't know if it has something to do with the soil, or because Zhouyou used Erhai seawater to irrigate it.

Zhou You decided to try planting more things in the future to see what the reason was.

On this day, Zhou You finally understood why Xiao Yueying was so abnormal and gave him spiritual sand!

That night, Huang Li came to Zhouyou here with several jars of wine and some food.

When Zhou You saw the wine jar, he couldn't help but think of the wine jars that filled the house when he first came here.

It seemed that Zhao Bin had been drinking with Huang Li a lot before.

"Brother Zhou, how about having a drink with me?"

Huang Li had a bitter look on his face and seemed to be in a very bad mood.

Zhou You nodded, but did not refuse.

The two of them sat down, Huang Li drank quietly, and Zhou You didn't say anything. Mainly because the relationship between the two was not particularly good, and it was hard for him to ask questions if the other party didn't talk.

After drinking two large bowls of wine, the alcohol seemed to arouse Huang Li's dissatisfaction.

He raised his head and looked at Zhou You: "Brother Zhou, do you think it's easy for us fish slaves? We can only cultivate a small amount of mana every day, but all of it is spent on fishing for spiritual fish, which wastes a lot of time. This is a real squeeze!"

"But what complaints do we have? Aren't we just helping the master's family to fish for spiritual fish? We have been working hard for several years and have never slacked off! But the master's family insulted me just because I missed a few spiritual fish! "

"It's so chilling!"

Listening to the dissatisfaction in Huang Li's words, Zhou You remained silent and did not express any opinions.

Then, while drinking, Huang Li complained about the eldest young master of the Huo family, as if the eldest young master of the Huo family had done something outrageous and resentful, and listed the ten deadly sins of the eldest young master of the Huo family.

Zhou You just listened silently.

What's the use of saying this to him.

Instead of complaining, it is better to practice hard and strive to succeed in building the foundation as soon as possible.

After being freed from slavery, everything will naturally become normal.

After some complaints, Huang Li looked at Zhou You: "Brother Zhou, don't you have any complaints after being a servant of the Xiao family for so many years?"

Zhou You shook his head and said, "It's okay. I've been responsible for cleaning the outer courtyard these years, and I hardly see the lady. Naturally, she won't scold me."

Huang Li had a strange expression on his face and said, "You will know later."

Zhou You frowned and said, "How do you say this?"

Huang Li hesitated for a moment, seemed to have made some kind of decision, and finally whispered: "Brother Zhou, do you know why Zhao Bin disappeared?"
