Chapter 40: Low-grade exercises
The huge mountain gate, carrying water, chopping firewood, washing clothes, cooking, and other things are all done by the handyman disciples, who specialize in serving the stewards of the sect and the disciples of the inner disciples, etc., so that they can practice wholeheartedly.However, even such a status as a handyman disciple also made the secular people sharpen their heads and want to come in.

Lu Wanqing didn't know how the other recruited disciples were arranged, but it was very simple for the disciples who were assigned to Xiaozhufeng to do handyman. That afternoon, as soon as they arrived at Xiaozhufeng, they were arranged by the steward Xuanguzi to chop firewood.

Xiaozhufeng is responsible for the supply of all firewood for Yuxumen, and there are tens of thousands of people in Yuxumen.There are only 15 people in Xiaozhufeng just responsible for the firewood, and now there are 19 people including Lu Wanqing.Every day, hundreds of catties of firewood must be chopped and sent to various hills...

Lu Wanqing didn't have anything else, just chopping firewood. Anyway, when she was a concubine of the Lu family, she chopped firewood and cooked by herself. Now it's just a different place, and it's just a matter of exercising.

Wei Feng and Wei Jing have martial arts skills, and their physique is much better than ordinary people. They can also do the task of chopping firewood. It's just that they were once regarded as influential figures in the Jianghu. I feel very unbalanced.But they are all smart people, and they can only complain a few words behind their backs, and even try to flatter them in front of Xuan Guzi.

As for Chen Qianqian, it was miserable. She was originally a boudoir girl of a wealthy family. Seeing that she had already promised a good husband, she was about to be hired to marry her. Unexpectedly, her parents would push back the marriage and ask her to take some kind of test... She I would rather be a mortal wife for the rest of my life, and love my husband forever than come here and suffer this kind of crime... But there is no way, the matter has come to an end. , I didn’t even have supper... I was too late to eat lunch, and now I’m so tired and weak, if I can’t eat supper... I’m afraid I’m going to starve to death here before I’m exhausted.

Originally, Lu Wanqing could have chopped her share of firewood faster, but she was new here and didn't want to be too aggressive. She counted the time and saw that dinner was about to be served, so she pretended to be tired and out of breath, and finished chopping the firewood. Set aside.

The piece of firewood is divided into three parts, chopping firewood, chopping firewood, and transporting.Each group has a small person in charge, and Shang Shan is in charge of the firewood group. This person is about thirty years old, and he has been in Yuxumen for ten years. He was dispatched here as the lowest handyman disciple.Because of his seniority, he got a "team leader".

After only being here for three or four days, Lu Wanqing basically got a feel for the temperament of the people around her. She found that all those who had been here for more than two or three years became silent and went about their business every day.However, although the life here is very monotonous and poor, they are unwilling to go down the mountain and leave. Like Chen Tianmin, relying on the fact that they have been in Xianmen for a few years, they have reached the first or second level of Qi refining and established their own Taoist sect with unlimited scenery.

And Shang Shan is definitely the kind of "upright and upright" person. Every time he goes to the yard to check everyone's labor situation in person, he can go to eat when he is done. If he is not finished, even hugging his thigh is useless.

Lu Wanqing saw that Chen Qianqian had indeed tried her best, and the blisters on her hands were all worn out, and the originally delicate smiling face was muddy like a cat with tears.Chen Qianqian turned her eyes to Wei Feng for help. On the way, Wei Feng saw Chen Qianqian's good looks, and struck up a few words... But now, Wei Feng went straight out of the yard as if he hadn't seen her.Naturally, Wei Jing also left.

Chen Qianqian looked back and saw Lu Wanqing looking at her, she was about to stop him, when she suddenly remembered that she didn't know the name of the woman who was assigned here with her, "You, can you help me? "

Lu Wanqing said: "It's time to eat now, you still have so much here, even if I stay to help you, I can't finish chopping before dinner..."

When Chen Qianqian saw the other party talking, she seemed to be grabbing a life-saving straw: "Then what should I do? I didn't eat lunch at noon, and now I am so hungry that I have no strength at all. You must help me, or I will starve to death." Here it is..." Chen Qianqian came up and grabbed Lu Wanqing's sleeve as she spoke.

Seeing this, Shang Shan's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a cold voice: "There is still a part of the task missing here, one of you must stay and chop the firewood here." After speaking, he turned and left.

Chen Qianqian's eyes were tearful, full of prayers.

Lu Wanqing thought about it for a moment, and came here alone... Although this Chen Qianqian is not her ideal partner, if she "sends charcoal in the snow" this time, will she be more fond of her?In this way, I also have someone who can barely be regarded as a friend.

Seeing that Lu Wanqing was hesitant standing there, Chen Qianqian hurriedly said, "You helped me this time, I will definitely remember you..."

Lu Wanqing turned her head, looked at the other party, and nodded. The latter was immediately overjoyed, and hurried out of the yard while saying thank you... Lu Wanqing looked at the other party's back, and was absent-minded for a moment. She was thinking, did she do it this time? wrong?

Immediately, she withdrew her thoughts, sat back in Chen Qianqian's seat, swung an ax that weighed about ten catties and began to chop wood.Chopping firewood is a laborious job and requires certain skills.

After more than an hour, everyone returned to the yard one after another, but Chen Qianqian was not seen.

Seeing Lu Wanqing helping Chen Qianqian chop firewood, Wei Feng looked at her calm face and said, "Why are you doing this? Helping others depends on whether it's worth it."

Lu Wanqing stopped and looked up at the other party. It was really strange that she saw a trace of sincerity in the other party's eyes.

Wei Jing came over and pulled his arm, "What you do here and what people want to do is their business, so don't worry about it."

Lu Wanqing ignored Wei Jing's teasing, but said, "If you don't try it, how will you know if it's worth it?"

Wei Feng was stunned for a moment, sighed, and left with Wei Jing.

Lu Wanqing didn't finish chopping the firewood until the beginning of the Xu Dynasty, and it was already past the time for dinner.As soon as she finished chopping the firewood, Chen Qianqian expected Ai Aidi to come in from the courtyard door, and seeing Lu Wanqing sitting exhausted behind a pile of obsessive firewood, she said pleasantly, "Wow, you've already finished chopping all the firewood." , you are amazing, thank you so much... If it weren't for you, I definitely wouldn't be able to eat dinner tonight. Oh, by the way, I'm afraid it's past time for you to go by now. I'm really sorry, I got you in trouble .”

Lu Wanqing saw the other party like this, she was not a three-year-old child, but a human being in two lifetimes, and her life experience combined was over 30 years old, how could she not see the other party's little thoughts.With such a person, it is enough to have a casual acquaintance with him, and it is absolutely impossible to confide in him. Lu Wanqing quickly came to a conclusion.

Although it was a loss of a meal, it allowed her to know a person's heart, which was still very rewarding.Being "stupid" this time, it was because she wanted to see if the other party was worth her help. Now that she has a conclusion, she will naturally not be so stupid in the future. If she has that free time, she might as well meditate quietly.

Lu Wanqing smiled and said nothing, and walked away.

Although the conditions here are poor, the place to live is relatively free. One person has one room. When Lu Wanqing returned to her hut, she washed up and sat cross-legged on the bed, took out the carrying bag from the stone niche next to her, and took out a baked naan Just eat it with water.Fortunately, I have already developed the habit of preparing some dry food at any time, so that I will not be hungry.

After eating, he took a short rest and began to meditate.

After all, it is a martial arts sect, even such a handyman disciple has practice skills, but it is a low-grade skill, the art of nourishing qi.Not everyone has a copy of the booklet of Nourishing Qi, but each mountain has a copy. Let the disciples go to the steward's uncle to read it. How much they can remember and how much they can comprehend is personal fortune.Quan should be a thought of these people who came to the fairy gate.

In the past few days, every evening after dinner, Lu Wanqing would go to the back mountain to memorize the exercises of Qi Yang Jue. Apart from the newcomers, she also saw many "old" people also go there to meditate and learn. Of course, there were a few Some people, like Chen Qianqian, have no intention of cultivating and are completely dawdling here.

Qi Yang Jue is not as difficult to understand as the legendary Chinese language. The opening chapter is to ask people to cultivate their body and mind, and calm their minds, which is helpful for people to enter tranquility.Tranquility is the most basic and crucial point in cultivation.Lu Wanqing had achieved this point a few months ago, now what she wanted to see was how to sense the spiritual energy, absorb and refine it into her own true energy, and how to use it.In Yangqi Jue, there are only how to sense aura, how to distinguish one's affinity for different element auras, and how to absorb and refine them, but not how to use them.

The use of zhenqi is another spell, such as the fireball technique that Lu Wanqing knows, the ground trap technique, etc. These are the use of zhenqi of different elements in the body.

In addition, there are many "technical terms" in Yangqi Jue that she will not be able to comprehend for a while. Fortunately, this does not affect her entry into cultivation.

Lu Wanqing followed the requirements in Yangqi Jue, unintentionally going upwards, and relaxed physically and mentally. She was half asleep and half awake, and she really felt small colorful bubbles floating around her.She knew that this was her response to the aura. Depending on the affinity, the cohesion of different elements would be different, but now she couldn't tell which color had more aura around her. They all looked similar, mixed together in a disorderly manner.

Lu Wanqing simply didn't bother to distinguish between these. Anyway, she is a pseudo-spiritual root with all four spiritual roots except metallic nature.The affinity of elements only shows the quality of a certain spiritual root, whether it belongs to the upper-grade, middle-grade or lower-grade. In the final analysis, you need to absorb all the spiritual energy into your body and refine it to become your own true energy.
