Chapter 1365 Ordinary Life
Chen Pianpian has a master looking after her, and her status in the sect is very low. Even the elder of the assessment hall who is responsible for her job has to give him three points.
There are tens of thousands of disciples in the Earth Fire Sect, and it is very easy for the elder of the assessment hall to arrange the identity of a new disciple. After a while, Elder Xu brought back a token with Lin Lang's name on it.
"Miss Chen, I have arranged for your friend to be a handyman disciple. You can go to Pandao Mountain to report in the afternoon." Elder Xu spoke softly and said: "I have informed the fellow disciples on the other side of Pandao Mountain. It’s not too harsh, you just need to do some work of chopping firewood and trees.”
Perhaps because he was worried that Chen Pianpian would continue to bargain, Elder Xu immediately said: "With the authority I can use, without spiritual roots, it is already very rare to be assigned to a relatively free handyman's office."
Chen Pianpian bowed slightly and said, "Junior thanks the elder."
"No problem, no problem."
Elder Xu waved his hands repeatedly and said: "We all belong to the Northern Lineage, so we should take care of each other."
The turmoil in the disciple hall came to an end for the time being, and Chen Pianpian quickly said goodbye and returned to the master to report on her duties. After all, as a monk, she couldn't always focus on an ordinary person like Lin Lang.
In the afternoon, Lin Lang went to the Handyman's Office to report. As Elder Xu said, the stewards of the Handyman's Office did not make things difficult for him. He basically didn't do any work on the first day.
"Little brother, I'm afraid you're exhausted after all the travel and traveling. Let's rest for a day. Come back tomorrow and I'll explain some of the sect's rules and regulations to you." The steward of the handyman's office said.
"Turn left ahead. There is a thatched hut a hundred meters away from the intersection. That is your residence." It can be seen that this steward of the handyman's office is very good at life. Ever since I heard that Lin Lang was arranged by someone inside the door, Those who came in did not identify themselves and explained to Lin Lang very politely.
After all, if you can get a low-level official in a place like the Assistant Department, you will naturally have excellent ability to observe people's emotions.
Lin Lang nodded and followed the direction pointed by the other party and quickly found where he lived.
This is a three-person bunk room with three beds neatly arranged in the room, but it is obvious that these three beds are fundamentally different.
The bed was neat and clean, the pillows and quilts were folded into tofu shapes, and even the bedside table was wiped clean without causing any dust.
The other bed was a mess, with grass stalks, hair, dirt, basically everything. It was obvious that the owner of this bed must be a slovenly man.
As for the last bed, although the cups were stacked fairly neatly, a lot of dust had fallen on it. It seems that this is Lin Lang's future residence.
In the evening.
Lin Lang met his first roommate, and it was just as he imagined. This person was a fair-skinned man who looked a bit like a jade scholar... man!
How should I put it? If he had to put it into one impression, the word that Lin Lang thought of was probably "sissy" commonly used on Emperor's Planet.
However, this guy's personality seemed to be a bit withdrawn. After seeing Lin Lang, he only calmed down a little bit, pushed aside the quilt, and took out an old book from underneath that had pages torn out.
A few words can still be vaguely seen above, the general outline of cultivating immortals and the first chapter of the Charming Holy Heart Sutra.
Lin Lang smiled slightly and saw the white-faced man sitting upright on the bed in a dignified manner and began to study the contents recorded in the book. Occasionally, there will be some ripples of spiritual energy.
He has barely stepped into the threshold of Qi refining realm. Of course, in his situation, he belongs to a monk who has only half-stepped into cultivation but has never opened up the spiritual sea.
"There are many lower-level disciples who are eager to learn."
Lin Lang smiled inwardly, but didn't criticize much.
A long while.
"I heard we have a newcomer here?"
Suddenly a rough voice came from outside the door. He was pushing the door open, but the voice arrived before the person. The person who came was an unshaven middle-aged man, who was basically as good as his bed. He looked unkempt, like a savage who had just emerged from the forest.
Seeing his roommate return, the white-faced man frowned slightly and couldn't help snorting coldly, saying: "What a big deal, you've disturbed others' studies."
Lin Lang: "..."
It's not that I dislike this kind of character, it's just that a grown man speaking in this tone really gives people goosebumps.
The wild man seemed to know him well. He pulled Lin Lang over and said, "My name is Xiong Shi. From now on, the three of us will live together. If you need anything, tell me."
Xiong Shi beat his chest loudly and said, "If anyone bullies you outside, just tell me. We don't have any other abilities, but we still have a lot of strength."
"Lin Lang."
Lin Lang smiled and took the initiative to chat with the latter. With Xiong Shi's character, basically what he says, you just need to hum and haha to cooperate, occasionally bring up the topic a few times, and you can chat for a long time.
"I forgot to introduce you to this old boy who doesn't talk much. His name is Xiong Zhuang. He was from the same village as me."
"Xiong Zhuang?"
Lin Lang was stunned. This name is quite random, but the name is for reference only, and the character's personality shall prevail.
Unconsciously, it was getting late and it was pitch black outside. Occasionally, a few trembling sounds could be heard, and Lin Lang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"ha--"
Lin Lang was suddenly stunned.
Now, he seems to have really become an ordinary person. When it gets dark at night, he actually gets sleepy.
tired.
"It seems that I have to accept this fact now." Lin Lang shook his head and smiled, but he didn't take it to heart. On the other side, the white-faced man was still practicing in a serious manner. It was a pity that with his method, it would take a long time to open the spiritual sea.
No words were spoken all night.
The next morning, Lin Lang reported to the manager, and Xiong Shi and the other two were also called together. In addition to the three of them, there were seven men of different fatness and thinness, who seemed to be the subordinates of this manager.
In the morning... a regular meeting.
The manager naturally talked about some work distribution issues. Obviously, even in a sect like the Earth Fire Sect, there are ten logistics support personnel like them.
Xiong Shi was responsible for chopping wood in the mountains, and the white-faced man was responsible for washing for the formal disciples of the Earth Fire Sect. In addition, the others were also engaged in different jobs. It can be seen that in the subordinate circle of these ten people, another thin old man has a high status.
There is no other reason. The thin old man is responsible for carving some basic objects such as bows and arrows and wooden stakes. These things are used by the outer disciples for training. They are very important productivity in this team.
After the morning meeting, the manager called Lin Lang and Xiong Shi separately and assigned Lin Lang the same job of cutting wood in the mountains.
Cutting wood is actually the most tiring of all jobs. As for why Elder Xu said that this job was easy, it was because the amount of wood cut in the mountains was basically more than enough for Xiong Shi to do alone, and arranging Lin Lang to come in was just a mess.
This is a very leisurely job.
As for Xiong Shi's displeasure... this iron fool doesn't seem to care about these details.
Of course.
Lin Lang didn't deliberately slack off. Anyway, the rest of his life is only so long, so why not live a quiet life as an ordinary person? What's the point of being lazy every day and wasting his life in bed?
The next day, Lin Lang went up the mountain with Xiong Shi. The two of them cut down more than a dozen trees. It was not until dusk that the two of them piled the wood down the mountain. Xiong Shi cut down twelve trees, and as for Lin Lang, he only cut down four trees.
It's not that Lin Lang was deliberately lazy, but every tree on the mountain was as thick as a bucket. It would take a long time to cut it down, and it had to be moved down the mountain.
This was not an easy task.
Finally, after a day of work, Lin Lang had a sore back and fell asleep when he returned to his room.
"You are so small, it's really not good." Xiong Shi looked at Lin Lang in a naive way.
The peaceful days passed day by day. Lin Lang also completely accepted his current identity, and the rest was just a monotonous and boring life every day.
Until two years later, the original manager brother was also transferred from his original position and promoted. The one who took over his job was a young man who looked about the same age as Lin Lang.
But this guy was different. On the first day of taking office, he was full of official power and leadership. Although there was no morning meeting, this guy still informed everyone that he was related to an inner disciple in the sect.
For the sake of everyone, we should focus on production, especially the number of felled trees.
For a while, the new manager made several people complain. But there was no way, because he had power. On the contrary, the thin old man got close to him very quickly and had a very good relationship with the new manager.
One day.
The white-faced Xiong Zhuang returned from outside, with several bright bloodstains on his white face. The first thing he did when he returned to the room was to stick out his butt and cover his head with the quilt and cry.
Lin Lang and Xiong Shi saw that the latter looked like he was being bullied, and they asked him several times, but there was no result.
This matter could only be temporarily abandoned.
But as time went by, the white-faced Xiong Zhuang also had a series of whip marks on his body. At this point, the other two also understood that the latter was clearly often beaten.
As for who beat him, it was unknown.
After crying for a while, Xiong Zhuang began to work hard again and study the Charm Saint Heart Sutra.
"I must cultivate spiritual energy and let those people see it!"
Xiong Zhuang muttered, as if he was trapped in an ocean of knowledge.
However, Xiong Zhuang has practiced for several years, but he still hasn't cultivated a single spiritual energy. This life... I'm afraid it will be like this.
Lin Lang couldn't bear it, borrowed the book and read it for a while, and couldn't help but say: "This method is actually not suitable for your way."
Lin Lang's original intention was to say that this was not a method of cultivation at all, but just some superficial generalizations, but he was worried that it would hit the latter, so he changed his statement.
