Chapter 74 Draw Lots
Chapter 74 Draw lots
Hearing what the female cultivator said, Zhou Shu didn't feel dumb, but there was no need to pay too much attention.
He didn't stay long, and walked towards Shaking Wind Garden.
Shaking Wind Garden is the residential area for new disciples from the outer sect. It is sixty miles west of Xichenyuan, which is quite close.
This can be regarded as a very thoughtful arrangement. New disciples don't have any spirit stones, so don't think about spirit beasts for transportation. They are reluctant to use talismans when they come and go, so the arrangement is closest to Xichenyuan.
The name of Shaking Wind Garden is similar to Xichenyuan, Xuexiangyuan, etc. It is quite quaint, and it all comes from the sound of Yuanhe, and it has been used to this day.
Zhou Shu didn't use the magic amulet, he wanted to read through the jade slips sent by He Yin on the way.
The Jade Slips introduced in detail the school rules, terrain, etc. of the Heyin School, and clearly explained the promotion and welfare of the disciples.
In a sect like the Heyin Sect, contribution is the most important thing, and it can be exchanged for almost everything in the sect.
Although outer disciples can accumulate contribution points, the only thing that can be exchanged for contribution points is inner disciple qualifications, and only inner disciples can exchange for other resources such as elixirs and magic weapons of the sect.
"If you want to change to elixir, or invite elders to refine alchemy, you must first accumulate contribution points and become an inner disciple. It's only 100,000 points of contribution points, and it's not easy to achieve it before the age of thirty."
Because after the age of thirty, even if you have enough contribution points, you cannot become an inner disciple through exchange. As he gets older, the Zongmen will no longer vigorously cultivate them.
Zhou Shu was thoughtful.
Walking slowly along the way, a small area of low-rise houses appeared in front of them, somewhat similar to the shacks in Fang City, but much neater and cleaner, and each house was separated by seven or eight feet. In front of each house, there is a very tall sycamore tree, shaking in the wind.
"You walk so slowly!"
A loud voice came, and Zhu Dashan approached quickly, with the arrogant Li Aojian standing beside him.
Zhou Shu arched his hands, "Hello, two brothers."
Zhu Dashan looked at Zhou Shu, "Brother Zhou, all the new outer disciples live here. Let's go in together, and we're all casual cultivators. Let's live closer so we can take care of us, how about it?"
Li Aojian raised his head slightly, "Junior Brother Zhu is right. If you live nearby, you can also ask Brother Zhou if you have any questions. I will not hesitate to teach you, Senior Brother."
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, "Okay, I have no problem."
In a new place, it is necessary to have a good relationship, and he has no ill feeling toward these two people. Zhu Dashan is indeed simple, although Li Aojian is very proud, but the essence does not seem to be bad, it is quite interesting.
Both of them showed a bit of joy, Zhu Dashan pointed to the houses not far away, "This is the best way, brother Li and I live in B1 and B3, you can live in B2, okay?"
Zhou Shu nodded, "Then I'll take care of it first, and I'll take my leave for now."
Zhu Dashan had a bit of excitement on his face, "If we have time later, why don't we go out for a stroll? I heard that the lotus music school is quite big, and there are many places worth visiting."
Li Aojian and Zhou Shu shook their heads almost at the same time, "It's not necessary, three days later it will be time for new disciples to pick up chores, so we need to prepare."
Zhu Dashan was rather regretful, "Okay. But Lao Zhu has nothing to prepare for, and he will just give this wonderful body to others for use."
Hearing this, Zhou Shu felt a chill, and turned around quickly.
Walking into the residence, there is only a futon and a stone platform inside, the layout is extremely simple, and there is no formation.
However, Zhou Shu had already prepared for it. He brought a few sets of simple formations and arranged them inside, which was pretty decent.
Immediately, he took the little roll out of the cloth bag and put it in a corner of the room.
Xiao Gun held back for a long time, and shook his head dissatisfied, until Zhou Shu gave it a spirit stone, and then it obediently rolled away, holding the spirit stone and staying still.
"If you eat it, you will know how to eat it. This is the one hundred and seventh pill. Remember it for me."
Zhou Shu glared at it bitterly.
He didn't draw a talisman for a day, and his hands were a little restless. He took out the talisman material from the storage bag and started to draw the talisman quietly.
Time flowed away quietly, and three days passed in a blink of an eye.
In the miscellaneous affairs hall of Xichenyuan, dozens of new disciples gathered together, waiting to be assigned chores.
Zhou Shu in the crowd, like everyone else, was wearing a green shirt of an outer disciple, and he couldn't stop searching.
"Strange, why didn't I see Sun Hedao, could it be that he has changed his sex?"
Zhou Shu was quite surprised, now that he didn't see Sun Hedao coming to stir up trouble, his heart felt a little empty.
In the middle of the hall, stood a forty-year-old Foundation Establishment cultivator. He looked at the crowd below with a slightly dignified face. Beside him, a half-foot-high stick was hanging, and dozens of jade sticks were shaking in it.
There are many kinds of chores in the Heyin Sect, such as feeding spirit beasts, managing medicine gardens, mining, etc. For foreign disciples, if they can be assigned lighter chores, such as managing medicine gardens, it will not take much time Energy can save time to practice and do your own things. If the manager of the medicine garden is happy, you can even get certain benefits.
But if they were assigned chores such as mining and patrolling the monster hunting area, it would be miserable. Not only would it take a lot of time and energy, but their lives might even be in danger.
Everyone wants good.
The Heyin faction was very straightforward. In order to prevent cheating and seeking personal gain, they directly implemented the seemingly fairest method, drawing lots.
"Everyone be quiet."
The cultivator pressed his hands, "I'm Liu Anmin, and I'm one of the stewards who assign chores. The type of chores and the method of assignment are clearly written in the house rules. If you have any questions, ask after the lottery is drawn." , let’s start drawing lots now.”
Liu Anmin said kindly, "You are all new disciples, and some of you have just become cultivators. Of course, the school will not give you too difficult chores. Don't worry, the chores of this issue are very simple. It doesn't matter who draws first , I’ll just order it casually.”
He appeared casually in the crowd, and a cultivator came out with an imperceptible smile on his face.
He stepped forward, took out a stick from the stick, and walked away quickly.
Taking a peek at the jade lottery, I was suddenly delighted, "Hey, I managed the medicine garden for a month, brother is right, the spirit stone is not in vain."
All kinds of actions fell into the eyes of Zhou Shu, who was observing meticulously, and he couldn't help shaking his head slightly.
Fairness, the fairness at the top is not necessarily fair at the bottom, as long as the stewards do a little tricks, such as attaching a trace of spiritual power to the lottery, the lottery will not be fair at all.
"Come one by one, don't worry, everyone has it."
Liu Anmin nodded and showed a satisfied smile. The distribution of chores once a month is his biggest source of income.
"Why are you in a daze, Guan Liu has called you."
Zhu Dashan pushed Zhou Shu naively.
Zhou Shu was slightly taken aback, unexpectedly he was also clicked first, there must be something weird.
Zhou Shu didn't say much, and walked forward, but just as his hand touched the stick, a jade stick flew over and stuffed it directly into his hand, without pulling it at all.
Liu Anmin looked at him and urged, "Okay, get down quickly, we're still waiting."
Zhou Shu nodded and looked at the jade stick in his hand.
"Lengwushan Wujing Iron Mine, mining for one month, reward contribution of 600 points."
Sure enough, Sun Hedao, you still haven't forgotten me.
Zhou Shu couldn't help shaking his head.
