Daqizong

Xing Tongfang brought Li Wan and Shi Haoguang into the city, and then arranged for them to stay and settle down, but instead of going to the inn as usual, he rented a three-bedroom compound and hired five servants.

These servants are all mortals living in the alliance. They rely on doing labor and serving monks to make a living. Although their lives are not very good, compared with the outside, they are simple and natural, like a paradise.

Shi Haoguang asked him: "How do you calculate the price here? If it's too expensive, forget it."

Li Wan secretly wondered, "Isn't it just to spend some yellow and white vulgar things? Although we are not big people, we are not bad at this point. What is there to care about?"

Shi Haoguang laughed when he heard the words: "Friend Li Daoist, you probably have misunderstood the idea. Here we rent the compound and recruit servants. What we spend here are not yellow and white vulgar things, but real spiritual jade."

Li Wan was taken aback, and said, "What, you want Hua Lingyu?"

Shi Haoguang said: "Of course, Lao Xing, he doesn't know very well, so you can explain it to him."

Xing Tongfang nodded and said: "This place is isolated from the world, and you can't use yellow and white vulgar objects. Of course, you can only use Lingyu. Moreover, most of the mortals here are descendants of ancestors in the alliance, or other mortals with celestial ties who also have cultivation skills. desire to improve."

"As for the price Daoist Shi asked just now, renting an ordinary compound here for a year requires six hundred spiritual jades, and hiring servants costs nearly ten spiritual jades per person per month. After a year, it is almost five hundred. It can be said that gold is very expensive.

But there is no other way, there are not many of them, and they are still responsible for the daily life and miscellaneous affairs of the entire city. I am afraid that the wages will rise again in the future, so don't feel bad about the money. We will settle down by ourselves instead of going to the inn. There are also many benefits, let’s not talk about others, at least it can be quiet, which is good for cultivation, and cultivation is the first priority now. "

Li Wan heard it and understood a little.

After Xing Tongfang finished explaining, he ordered the five newly recruited servants: "You come and meet the new owner, and then go to work."

These five servants are a cook who is in charge of cooking, a handyman who sweeps the courtyard, and three maids who do laundry, clean the room, and serve tea and water.

After meeting the three new owners, they went to work on their own.

These mundane affairs were handled very quickly, because Xing Tongfang seemed to have old acquaintances here, and those people were local snakes, so they helped out, and it only took one afternoon to settle all the affairs.

Seeing the night fall, Xing Tongfang took them to a restaurant near their residence, saying that he would clean up the dust for them.

The two naturally went together happily.

After drinking and eating, Xing Tongfang asked, "How are you two, is this place not bad?"

Shi Haoguang smiled and said, "It's not bad, it can be called a paradise."

Li Wandao: "I think this place doesn't have many people living there."

Xing Tongfang smelled of alcohol, he laughed and said: "You can see it, Li Daoyou, yes, casual cultivators are all over the world, how can they stay in one place for a long time? Transfer? It can be half a year or a year at the earliest, or three to five years at the slowest, and you may also travel to other places."

"That's true." Li Wan and Shi Haoguang said.

Xing Tongfang said again: "But we have a place to stay this time, so we can think about the future. Don't be like before, looking for opportunities everywhere."

Shi Haoguang asked: "What are your plans?"

Xing Tongfang seemed to have thought it through, and replied simply: "In life, no matter whether you are a fairy, the first thing you need is to make a living, to settle down, and then to make achievements, get ahead, and live a happy life.

I am a casual cultivator, only when I am able to refine my Qi state, and I am unknown in the entire cultivation world, so there is no need to think about what is there and what is not, just find a serious job to do, and earning a living is the real thing, you can Earning some spiritual jade to make a living is excellent, and if the opportunity comes in the future, it will naturally be possible to make progress. "

When he said these words, he seemed to answer Shi Haoguang's question, but in fact, he also vaguely mentioned Li Wan as a junior.

He was afraid that Li Wan was too young, and he thought that the monks were light-hearted, extraordinary and refined, and they had nothing to do when they were full all day long.

Li Wan thought for a while, and immediately understood.

Seeing Li Wan's pensive look, Xing Tongfang nodded in satisfaction.

He didn't know how much Li Wan could listen to his words, but he did feel so relieved.

Li Wan is very different from those young people who are ambitious and don't know the heights of the sky and the earth. They already have a somewhat experienced calm atmosphere, which he and Shi Haoguang appreciate very much.

Xing Tongfang said again: "The most important thing for us right now is to take the vermillion fruit. This time we each got more than three vermilion fruits. No matter how you say it, we can increase our skill for decades. Daoist Shi and I are more likely to eat vermilion fruit. Directly promoted to the mid-stage of Qi Refining."

When he said this, he couldn't help but have a bit of joy on his face.

Li Wan was startled, and quickly said: "It's really gratifying."

Xing Tongfang smiled lightly.

But Shi Haoguang laughed loudly: "Li Daoyou, you are the same, we are both happy and happy."

Li Wan was slightly taken aback, and then heard Shi Haoguang say: "Although the old Xing Chi and I are ten or twenty years older than you, the years of becoming a Qi-refining cultivator are actually not that long. It is enough to make up for most of it, and you are still young, and the future is much brighter than ours. Maybe you will meet some opportunities in the future and you will be able to successfully build the foundation. At that time, the old Xing and I will It all depends on you."

Li Wan took a sip of his wine, smiled and said nothing.

Shi Haoguang was right. Although taking shortcuts is dangerous, the effect is obvious.

Get enough vermilion fruits this time, find a chance to eat them all, after refining, you will definitely increase your skills a lot.

"Come, come, drink and drink. Let's have a good drink this time. Next, we will retreat and practice hard, and strive to make progress as soon as possible. Other things will be discussed after we leave the customs."

***

The three talked about looking forward to the future, and at the same time set the tone for the next few months, and then they each lived in seclusion and lived a life of retreat and cultivation.

Li Wan only had the time to take Zhu Guo at this time.

In fact, he was able to take food more than ten days ago, but he was fleeing at that time, neither his body nor his mood were suitable, so he did not act rashly.

The rented compound is where Qi refining monks live in the city, and they have their own quiet room for retreat and practice. Li Wan ordered the servants not to disturb, then closed the stone box tightly, hid and took food, and refined.

Zhu Guo's effect is really miraculous. It only took more than ten days for him to cultivate Chiyangmen's qi movement formula to the seventh level in one breath, and he has a skill comparable to 30 years of hard work.

"A shortcut is a shortcut, it's really fast."

Feeling that the innate true energy in the body is more than three times stronger, although it is still lurking in the spirit field and cannot move, but its strength has increased, the body is light and agile, and the eyes and ears are much smarter, Li Wan can't help but sigh deeply.

If you practice honestly, how can you have this kind of advancement?

But this is not a benefit for nothing, Yan Siqi and Xia Quan even died because of this, the pros and cons of it are really hard to tell.

In the next few days, Li Wan took Yiqi Pills to further nourish his body.

This is a low-level elixir that can be used to accumulate vitality and benefit cultivation. Although its efficacy is far less than that of Zhu Guo, it is really good. Taking it regularly on weekdays can greatly speed up cultivation.

"These sect disciples are indeed rich, but should I spend my own money to buy them in the future and take them for a long time? Although they can't be like vermilion fruit, they can't improve the cultivation level immediately, but they also have the effect of nourishing energy. It’s a long way of flowing water.”

Li Wan felt that after forcibly tempering his vitality last time, it seemed much easier for him to absorb the power of these medicines.

This is because the meridians in the body can be broadened and gradually become familiar with the entry of vitality into the body.

However, long-term consumption of this kind of elixir is done by famous disciples, because they cost a lot of money. If you really want to buy them, a bottle of less than twenty pills will cost hundreds of Lingyu.

One bottle or two bottles is nothing, but in the long run, it can be said to be a luxury.

Don't look at Li Wan's current possession of more than 6000 spiritual jades. These spiritual jades are all windfalls, which cannot be inferred by common sense, and it is impossible to spend all of them on these medicine pills.

Putting these distracting thoughts out of my mind for a while, Li Wan was full of excitement again: "Okay, if this continues, I will be able to separate out multiple shares of true energy and sacrifice multiple seals at the same time. At that time, even if I don't practice supernatural powers, My strength has also been greatly improved, and because of the emphasis on practice in refining tools, the progress in the cultivation of the Xubao seal will be much faster, which is more conducive to my familiarity with the Dao pattern."

"Qi Zong Da Dian" records the way of refining tools, and among them, the Dao pattern is the foundation.

The knowledge and experience in this can be obtained by merging the spiritual sense, but just merging the spiritual sense is not enough. Only by trying it out can one truly master it.

The real essence has grown by more than three times. Such a big improvement will also increase the recovery speed and physical fitness. The benefits are great.

More than a month passed in a peaceful day.

Shi Haoguang and Xing Tongfang, as expected, were both promoted to the middle stage of Qi refining.

This can be regarded as the beginning of entering the room, passing the threshold of cultivating supernatural powers, and Li Wan also absorbed all the medicinal power of Zhu Guo, and consolidated his cultivation base.

As long as the gap with Shi Haoguang and others is bridged, it will be easy to enter the middle stage.

"Having practiced in seclusion for so long, my bones are almost rusted. I just heard a good news. The Market Club in the alliance has recently opened again. Are you interested in wandering around? You have been here for a while, and you haven't experienced it yet. It’s really not right to pass through the square market here.”

At this time, the three of them had already left the customs, and they began to be very quiet, and Xing Tongfang also had the idea of ​​Fangshi.

"The market here? It sounds interesting, so take us there."

Li Wan and Shi Haoguang looked at each other and agreed immediately.
