Soaring the Heavens

Text Chapter 23 Ma Cheng

Not long after, the drunken old man smiled apologetically again, and Pidianpian followed a tall man.

The person who came was carrying a sword on his back, giving people the impression of a jade tree standing in the wind. He looked Miao Yi up and down and said hesitantly: "I am Cao Dingfeng, are you looking for me?"

Miao Yi immediately took out the jade certificate and handed it to him. After Cao Dingfeng took the jade certificate and injected it with magic power to check, he showed his original appearance and immediately changed his smile to Miao Yi and said: "It turns out to be Brother Miao. Since it is entrusted by Brother Chen, Cao will do his best, please follow me to see the cave master."

Miao Yi thanked him and was about to lead the horse to follow him when Cao Dingfeng was stunned and said, "Is this your horse?"

However, seeing that Miao Yi was a little embarrassed, he immediately turned around and said rudely to the old man: "Shi Jiang, watch the horse!"

It is not convenient to let worldly horses wander around when practicing in a cave.

The bad old man immediately nodded and bent down to lead Miao Yi's mount, and said with a flattering face, "I'll watch it for you."

Miao Yi thanked him and followed Cao Dingfeng into the mountain gate with a silver gun in hand.

The two of them laughed and talked all the way, and it was obvious that Cao Dingfeng and Chen Fei had a good relationship, otherwise they would not be so polite to Miao Yi, who was at the first level of Bailian.

After climbing the bluestone steps to the outside of the main hall with the plaque engraved with 'Floating Light', Cao Dingfeng asked Miao Yi to wait outside the hall, then turned around and climbed dozens of high steps and quickly entered the hall.

Miao Yi, who waited patiently, looked around carefully. Although this place was deep in the mountains, it was much better than the places he had lived in and the places he had seen. The pavilions, pavilions, jade pond and green lotus were so beautiful.

However, the wait was a bit long this time. It took almost half an hour before Cao Dingfeng walked out of the hall.

Although he still had a smiling face, Miao Yi could see that the other party's smile was a bit forced. He wondered if the other party had persuaded the Master of the Floating Light Cave to let him join. It looked like it might not go well.

"Brother Miao." Cao Dingfeng stood on the high steps and waved to Miao Yi, indicating to follow him.

Miao Yi quickly walked up. After the two were side by side, Cao Dingfeng said through the law: "Brother Miao, no matter what the cave master tells you to do later, you agree to it first. Later, when you have improved your cultivation, you can fight for it." , The most important thing now is to find a way to stay, don’t let Brother Chen’s hard work go to waste.”

Miao Yi muttered in his heart that it was indeed not going well, but he still nodded.

After the two entered the main hall, a lean man sat on a high position in the middle of the main hall, and a man and a woman stood below. The three of them were discussing something.

Seeing someone coming in, the three of them stopped talking and turned their attention to Miao Yi.

Miao Yi glanced at the three people and fixed his gaze on the lean man occupying a high position. He estimated that the man was the master of the Floating Light Cave.

"Brother Miao, this is our cave master. Come and meet us quickly!" Cao Dingfeng introduced with a smile.

Miao Yi immediately held his gun and saluted: "Miao Yi pays homage to the cave master!"

Yuan Zhengkun, the master of Fuguang Cave, frowned slightly and said, "I heard from Dingfeng that your cultivation level is only at the level of White Lotus?"

"Yes!" Miao Yi didn't hide anything.

This kind of thing can't be hidden for a long time. The Dharma's appearance is revealed on the spiritual platform, and the white lotus with a pitiful petal is revealed.

A man and a woman at the next station looked at Cao Dingfeng and shook their heads helplessly. Cao Dingfeng smiled at the two of them, seemingly saying that he would forgive them and give them face.

Cave Master Yuan Zhengkun said lukewarmly: "Dingfeng has followed me for many years. Since Dingfeng strongly recommended me, I won't say more. I am still short of a Ma Cheng here. I wonder if you are happy with it. If you feel that you are not qualified, you can Find another job.”

Miao Yi didn't understand what 'Ma Cheng' was, but since Cao Dingfeng had given instructions before, he naturally responded with clasped fists, "I am willing to obey the orders!"

Yuan Zhengkun nodded and said: "From now on we are a family. Dingfeng, please lead him down to make arrangements."

Miao Yi and Cao Dingfeng thanked and left.

After leaving the main hall, Miao Yi followed Cao Dingfeng to the back mountain.

The drunkard old man named "Shi Jiang" and a woman were called to the front by Cao Dingfeng.

The old man Shijiang still nodded and bowed, but the woman had a straight face.

"Shijiang, Mrs. Shijiang, this is the new Ma Cheng. Please help with the arrangements. He is new here. Please help him with anything he doesn't understand."

Cao Dingfeng still had something to do. He explained something and was about to leave. He didn't know what he thought of again. He turned to face Shijiang and his wife and said with a stern face: "Brother Miao is my brother. Don't think that because he is new, you can be so presumptuous. You and your wife better not play any tricks, otherwise don’t blame me for being rude!”

This was because he was afraid that Miao Yi would be offended, so he made it clear that he wanted to cover up Miao Yi.

Of course Miao Yi knew that this was all because of Chen Fei. He had no friendship with Cao Dingfeng. He was entrusted by others to be loyal and give Chen Fei face.

"No, no," the old man Shijiang promised with a smile on his face.

Mrs. Shijiang still had a straight face, as if someone owed her money.

After sending Cao Dingfeng away, the couple led Miao Yi to find a house surrounded by mountains and rivers.

Although it is a small structure with a single courtyard, there are pavilions, flowers, plants and trees inside. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs and is very exquisite.

"This will be your cultivation residence from now on. Take a look at this residence and are you satisfied or not? If not, there is an empty courtyard at the foot of the mountain over there. Can we go over and have a look?"

The Shijiang drunkard smiled politely in front of Miao Yi.

Miao Yi walked around the courtyard and found that there was no one inside. He was surprised and asked: "My cultivation mansion? Is this for me to live alone?"

"Of course, every monk in Fuguang Cave has his own private courtyard." Shi Jiang said with a smile.

Miao Yi had nothing to be dissatisfied with. He had never lived in such a nice house before. He nodded and said, "Don't bother. It's good. This is it."

After saying that, he remembered the business and turned back to ask, "Senior Shijiang, what does a horse steward do?"

Mrs. Shijiang said with a hint of sarcasm, "A horse breeder."

This lady seemed to be very unimpressed by the word "Shijiang". When she heard this title, she felt like she was going to get angry.

"A horse breeder?" Miao Yi was stunned.

He soon knew the answer. The couple took him to the "Wolong Valley". The so-called Wolong Valley was a gourd-shaped valley with three steep sides and only one narrow exit. The dragon foals of the monks in Fuguang Cave were all concentrated here.

Miao Yi's responsibility was to graze the eleven dragon foals in the valley, so he was called a horse steward.

The reason why the dragon foals were gathered together to graze was because their owners were all monks. Most of the time, the monks focused their energy on cultivation. Who would have the leisure to take care of the mounts every day?

This kind of lowly task should not be done by a cultivator, but the dragon colt is so powerful that ordinary mortals cannot control it. Ordinary people cannot dodge the dragon colt's lightning speed and will be bloody and dead, not to mention letting it go, so it can only be done by cultivators.

Normally, this kind of lowly task is usually done by the lowest-ranking cultivators. And Miao Yi is a newcomer, and his cultivation is the lowest, so who else can do it if he doesn't? If it weren't for Cao Dingfeng's face, the owner of Fuguang Cave would not want to take Miao Yi in at all.
