Chapter 74 Draw Lots
Zhou Shu was speechless after hearing what the female cultivator said, but there was no need to pay too much attention.
He didn't stay long and walked towards Shaofeng Garden.
Shaofengyuan is the residence area for new outer disciples. It is sixty miles west of Xichenyuan, so it is very close.
This is a very considerate arrangement. New disciples don't have any spiritual stones, so they don't have to think about transporting spiritual beasts. They are reluctant to use talismans when they come and go, so the arrangement is closest to Xichenyuan.
The name of Yaofengyuan is similar to Xichenyuan, Xuexiangyuan and other names. It is quite quaint and comes from the Yuanhe sound and is still used today.
Zhou Shu didn't use the magical talisman. He wanted to read the few jade slips distributed by He Yin on the way.
The jade slips introduce in detail the rules, terrain, etc. of the Heyin Sect, and also clearly explain the promotion and welfare of the disciples.
In a sect like 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 the qualification of inner disciples, and only inner disciples can redeem the sect's elixirs, magic weapons and other resources.
"If you want to change to elixirs, or ask elders to make elixirs, you must first accumulate contribution points and become an inner disciple. It is only 100,000 contribution points, and it must be achieved before the age of thirty, which is not easy."
Because after the age of thirty, even if you have enough contribution, you cannot become an inner disciple through exchange. When you get older, the sect will no longer vigorously train you.
Zhou Shu was thoughtful.
Driving slowly all the way, a small group of low houses appeared in front of us, which was somewhat similar to the shack area in Fang City, except that it was much neater and cleaner. Each house was separated by seven or eight feet. Each room
In front of the house, there is a very tall sycamore tree, which keeps swaying in the wind.
"You walk so slowly!"
A loud voice came, and Zhu Dashan quickly approached, with the arrogant Li Aojian standing next to him.
Zhou Shu cupped his hands and said, "Hello, two senior brothers."
Zhu Dashan looked at Zhou Shu and said, "Brother Zhou, the new outer disciples all live here. Let's go in together and we are all casual cultivators. How about we live closer to each other so that we can take care of you?"
Li Aojian raised his head slightly, "Junior Brother Zhu is right. If you live nearby, if Junior Brother Zhou has any questions, you can ask me. Senior Brother, I will definitely give you advice."
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, "Okay, I have no problem."
In a new place, it is necessary to build a good relationship, and he has no ill feelings towards these two people. Zhu Dashan is indeed simple, and although Li Aojian is extremely proud, his nature does not seem to be bad, and he is quite interesting.
Both of them showed a bit of joy. Zhu Dashan pointed to the house not far away, "This is the best. Brother Li and I will live in B1 and B3, and you can live in B2, okay?"
Zhou Shu nodded, "Then I'll take care of it first. I'll say goodbye for now."
Zhu Dashan had a bit of excitement on his face, "If we have free time later, why don't we go out for a walk? I heard that the Heyin 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 anymore. In three days it will be time for new disciples to take on chores, so we need to prepare."
Zhu Dashan looked quite regretful, "Okay. But Lao Zhu has nothing to prepare. He can just give this great body to others for use when the time comes."
Hearing this, Zhou Shu felt a chill and turned around quickly.
Walking into the residence, there was only a futon and a stone platform. The layout was extremely simple and there were no formations.
However, Zhou Shu had already prepared. He brought a few simple formations and arranged them inside, which looked pretty decent.
Immediately, he took the roll out of the cloth bag and placed it in a corner of the room.
Xiao Gun held it in for a long time and shook his head in dissatisfaction. It was not until Zhou Shu gave it a spirit stone that it rolled away obediently and stopped moving while holding the spirit stone.
"Eat, eat, know how to eat. This is the one hundred and seventh pill. Remember it for me."
Zhou Shu glared at it hatefully.
After not drawing talismans for a day, his hands were a little restless. He took out the talisman materials from his storage bag and quietly began to draw the talisman.
Time flew by quietly, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the chore hall of Xichenyuan, dozens of new disciples gathered together, waiting to be assigned chores.
Zhou Shu in the crowd, like the others, was wearing a green shirt worn by an outer disciple, his eyes constantly searching.
"Strange, why didn't I see Sun Hedao? Could it be that he has changed his gender?"
Zhou Shu was quite surprised. Now that he couldn't see Sun Hedao coming to stir up trouble, he felt a little empty.
In the middle of the hall, stood a forty-year-old Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator. He looked at the crowd below, his face slightly solemn. Beside him, there was a half-foot-tall stick hanging on it, with dozens of jade sticks hanging on it.
It kept shaking inside.
There are many kinds of chores in Heyin Sect, such as feeding spirit beasts, managing medicine gardens, mining, etc. For outer disciples, if they can be assigned easier chores, such as managing medicine gardens, it won't take too much time.
It 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 you are assigned to do chores such as mining and patrolling monster hunting areas, it will be miserable. Not only will it take a lot of time and energy, but your life may even be in danger.
Everyone wants good things.
The Heyin faction was very straightforward. In order to prevent cheating and personal gain, they directly implemented what seemed to be the fairest method, drawing lots.
"Everyone be quiet."
The cultivator laid his hands and said, "I am Liu Anmin, one of the stewards who allocates chores. The types of chores and the distribution methods are clearly written in the sect rules. If you have any questions, please ask after the lot drawing.
, let’s start drawing lots now.”
Liu Anmin said cheerfully, "You are all new disciples, some of whom have just become cultivators. Of course, the sect will not give you too difficult chores. Don't worry, the chores in this period are very simple. It doesn't matter who does it first.
, I just ordered whatever I wanted.”
He seemed casual among the crowd, and a cultivator came out in response, with an imperceptible smile on his face.
He stepped forward, took out a lottery ticket from the tube, and walked away quickly.
He glanced at the jade sign secretly, and suddenly felt joyful in his heart, "Hey, I have been managing the medicine garden for a month. Brother is right, the spiritual stone is not in vain."
All kinds of actions fell into the eyes of Zhou Shu, who was observing carefully, and he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Fairness, what is fair at the top is not necessarily fair at the bottom. As long as the manager uses some tricks and adds a trace of spiritual power to the lot, there will be no fairness in the drawing of lots.
"Come one by one, don't rush, everyone has it."
Liu Anmin nodded with a satisfied smile. The monthly payment of chores was his biggest source of income.
"Why are you so stunned? Manager Liu has caught your attention."
Zhu Dashan nudged Zhou Shu naively.
Zhou Shu was slightly startled. He was also called on first. There must be something weird.
Zhou Shu didn't say much and walked forward, but as soon as his hand touched the holder, a jade sign flew over and was stuffed directly into his hand without drawing it at all.
Liu Anmin looked at him and urged, "Okay, get down quickly, we're still waiting behind you."
Zhou Shu nodded and looked at the jade sign in his hand.
"Lengwu Mountain Mist Crystal Iron Mine Cave, mining for one month, reward contribution of 600 points."
Sure enough, Sun Hedao, you still haven't forgotten me.
Zhou Shu couldn't help but shook his head.
