Do not die

"I would like to know about the situation of the qi-training servants. Can the governor tell me in detail?" Meng Zhou said directly.

"Oh, let me talk to you about this in detail."

After hearing Meng Zhou's question, Li Xiang nodded.

He started talking to Meng Zhoufen without showing the slightest surprise.

Because from his perspective, this is a matter of course.

Meng Zhou was also listening attentively, but the thought he had in his mind was not as "natural" as Li Xiang thought.

At first, when Governor Li wanted to recommend some qi-training servants to him, Meng Zhou's subconscious reaction was to refuse.

This is related to his long-standing habit. Because of his special situation, when dealing with other monks, he will subconsciously keep a sufficient distance from each other.

Even with the closest relationship between Master and Disciple Chu Zheng, the sense of distance is obvious.

Therefore, when Governor Li wanted to recommend him a qi-training servant, he declined without much thought.

But in less than ten days, Meng Zhou's thoughts changed greatly.

First of all, the foundation-building monks who come here to "farm" do not really want to be farmers with their faces facing the loess and their backs turned to the sky.

In addition to the busy times of sowing and harvesting, and the complicated affairs, their only task is to regularly go to the spiritual fields to provide rain and water.

Because of such needs, they had to be "bound" to this land for a long time, which was the biggest price they paid.

But if you can accept this, everything will seem leisurely and comfortable.

The cards and style of the Foundation Establishment Monk are all there.

Looking at the layout of this courtyard, Meng Zhou could roughly imagine the daily life of the former owner as a typical landowner.

Practice in a quiet room, drink tea and enjoy the scenery in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, entertain visiting friends at a banquet in the elegant house, or go out to visit friends.

You can ask Sanchuanhui to solve some larger chores outside the house.

Some smaller and more specific chores are handled by the Qi Practicing servants, who are all placed in the courtyard covering an area of ​​four acres.

Among them, there are also carefully laid out courtyards within courtyards, in which beauties with their own unique skills live.

But if you need it, you can invite them to the Huxin Pavilion to play with them, or you can go to the boudoirs in person to enjoy them, and they can play as they want.

This is the state of a normal landowner in Sanchuan Plain.

Of course, things cannot be generalized. Of course, there are monks who like to be quiet and are not interested in anything else except spiritual practice.

However, it is also necessary to find one or two Qi training servants to handle some chores, run errands, send messages, and do other things.

If you don't find a qi training servant, it will look different and conspicuous.

And this is just one of the reasons.

There are two other reasons, which are more closely related to Meng Zhou, and are also the reasons why he wants to consult on this matter now.

One is the growth of Xuanling Turtle. Because of his deliberate cramming, he needs to use a lot of animal pellets.

With his current attainments in alchemy and his familiarity with the medicinal properties contained in various wood-type spiritual herbs and elixirs, he can prepare them without any fixed formula, only some popular and ordinary spiritual herbs and elixirs. Find out the best animal pills for Xuan Ling Turtle to take.

This was easily solved in Sanchuan Plain. When he first entered Sanchuan Plain, he saw many first-level spiritual fields run by Qi-training monks, and various spiritual medicine gardens were everywhere.

Therefore, all the spiritual herbs and elixirs that the Xuanling Turtle needs in the entire first level can be easily obtained.

The easiest solution was to open his mouth to Governor Li, but Meng Zhou just didn't want to open his mouth.

He doesn't want Sanchuanhui to be too involved in his life, which will make his "portrait" clearer and clearer in Sanchuanhui's eyes.

But he can't just build the foundation in a dignified way, and he often does this kind of problem that can be solved by just mentioning it - doesn't this seem even weirder?

At first, I didn't think much about it, but I couldn't help but murmur in my heart.

This was the reason why he needed to find a qi-training servant, and there was another reason that he only came up with when he was practicing the Yun Yu Technique.

Now, his cloud and rain technique has reached the level of a master.

Meng Zhou believed that even among all the foundation-building monks who had mastered the Cloud and Rain Technique, not many could master this magic to this extent.

Moreover, Meng Zhou believed that it would not take too long to take it one step further, to the level of a master, or even to reach perfection.

But compared to other practitioners of the cloud and rain technique, the shortcoming of lack of mana cannot be made up for in a short period of time.

If he goes to the spiritual field to provide rain every time, a very strange phenomenon will occur - the rain he makes will be very short and not lasting.

In order to take care of all the more than two hundred acres of spiritual land, he had to go back and forth to the quiet room again and again to regain his breath.

Every time I regain my breath, it only rains for three to five minutes.

Such a strange and unusual phenomenon, as long as it is noticed by others, it will not be enough for others to think about it.

His idea of ​​deliberately blurring the realm of cultivation will be easily seen through.

It is also impossible for him to set up some formations around the spirit field to block his casting process, which would only attract more curious onlookers.

…

Who needs to build a wall before planting land?

There is nothing strange about this.

Not allowed to see?

Then I still want to see it!

…

The solution Meng Zhou came up with is also very simple. I just need to make my people lazier and more homely.

While inspecting the entire courtyard, Meng Zhou had already discovered that there was a water channel leading from the pond to other areas of the courtyard.

There are also some small dry pools in those courtyards, and there are also small channels connected to this main channel.

It is conceivable that at the beginning, this pond was not only a scene designed by the previous owner, but also the "reservoir" of the entire courtyard. The Qi-training servants living in other areas also used the second-level spiritual water in this pond.

This can be regarded as a benefit of being a servant to the foundation-building monks.

What Meng Zhou had to do was to open another canal, leading directly to the Lingtian area.

In this way, he does not need to go to the spiritual field to apply rain himself. Whenever it is time to irrigate, he can open canals and release water, and let the Qi training servants fetch water for irrigation.

In this way, he would naturally have a reason not to rain rain on the spot in the spiritual field.

No one will know that he has to go back and forth many times to do the work that others can do in one or two times.

Moreover, as long as you pay attention when coming into contact with those Qi-training servants, you don't need to worry about what they can see.

You are the real master of this place.

Governor Li introduced the Qi Practicing Servant in detail, and finally handed Meng Zhou a booklet and said:

"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, you can take a look."

Meng Zhou opened the book and took a quick look. This was a resume book.

Each page contains the name, age, gender, and character of a Qi practitioner as well as a rough background check.

Also included is a high-resolution image.

What left Meng Zhou speechless was that the first twenty or so pages were all female cultivators.

And all of them are dressed up with great ingenuity. They are either full of flowers, fresh and lovely, or immortal. The most important thing is that all of them are extremely good-looking.

But there were several of the most stunning faces among them, and Meng Zhou could see signs of deformation. Two of them even had slight adjustments at the skeletal level.

However, I have to say that the technique is also very clever, and it may not be obvious to ordinary foundation building.

But Meng Zhou was different. He could see traces of artificiality and unnaturalness at a glance.

Meng Zhou's eyes stayed on these pages for a while, and then he looked up at Governor Li.

Governor Li was also looking at him at this moment. When he saw him looking up, Governor Li seemed to know that he was meeting someone with vicious eyes this time. He coughed lightly and reminded: "There will be more behind, there will be more behind."

Meng Zhou then turned back.

But the latter part is even more outrageous, okay.

The first male cultivator is a man who is more beautiful than the female cultivator.

The most outrageous thing is that this face and figure are all natural, without any trace of manipulation.

Those tender eyes seem to be looking at the viewer.

Meng Zhou quickly turned the page, but he couldn't help but think of a sentence in his heart, once a man gets sexual, what does it matter to a woman?

Then the next dozen or so pages are filled with handsome male cultivators of various styles.

I couldn't help complaining in my heart, "It seems that the Sanchuan Society has really put a lot of effort into keeping the landowners of Ji Zhuang Village on this land.

What is this, a companion? "

When he saw a new page showing male and female monks with relatively normal paintings, Meng Zhou looked more seriously.

However, after reading the volume, Meng Zhou raised his head and looked at Governor Li: "Are they all here?"

Li Xiang hurriedly said: "These are all people whose character and nature we know well, and there are many who have not been included in this book. However, we do not know much about their situation and past, and we dare not recommend them casually."

Meng Zhou nodded. He had also noticed just now that the male and female nuns included in this booklet basically all have local origins, or have direct connections with certain local monks and have their guarantees.

Meng Zhou could understand Sanchuan's intention of doing this.

But even leaving aside the male and female cultivators who were used to "accompany the seed", the other qi-training servants all seemed too mediocre.

Since he decided to find a servant and had so many clear purposes, Meng Zhou certainly wanted to find someone with stronger abilities.

Meng Zhou wanted to hand back the booklet in his hand, but suddenly an idea occurred to him and he said to Li Xiang, "I will let you know after I think about it carefully for a few days and have a definite idea."

Governor Li responded readily and didn't wait long. He quickly stood up to say goodbye and flew away.

Seeing that the person was leaving, Meng Zhou put the booklet in his hand into his storage bag.

In the end, the reason why he replied like this was because Meng Zhou had to make some preparations in advance.

Moreover, today is already the eighth day of the lunar month, and soon, he will be practicing in seclusion again.

If we find people in these two days, it will be difficult to make arrangements then. We might as well wait until the next time we leave customs.

And with his last words to deal with it, Governor Li will not bother him these days.

As for preparation——

Meng Zhou got up and left the courtyard, and for the first time came to the 220 acres of spiritual land that was now under his control.

This spiritual field is next to the courtyard where he lives.

Sitting in the quiet room, observing the moon mirror with a radius of two miles, the entire spiritual field can be included in the moon mirror.

In Meng Zhou's eyes, this spiritual field is just a piece of bare hard ground without even a single weed.

If he hadn't been able to feel the rich spiritual energy of the second-level quality in this hard ground, he would have mistakenly thought it was a dead place at first glance.

A flaming bird formed by mana flew out of Meng Zhou's hand. The bird directly hit the ground in front of him, and with a bang, a dent was created that was two to three meters wide.

The clods of soil flew away, and Meng Zhou grabbed a piece of it.

After a gentle squeeze, the soil was intact.

Meng Zhou increased his strength little by little, until he exerted more than 30% and nearly 40% of the force, the soil in his hand began to crack, and slowly deformed as he exerted a little more force.

It wasn't until he used 60% of his strength that the clod of soil turned into dregs crushed with one hand.

"This hardness is even higher than that of a top-grade first-class magic weapon."

Meng Zhou judged in his heart.

However, this does not mean that these soils can be used as raw materials for refining magic weapons.

The difference between spiritual materials and non-spiritual materials is that spiritual materials all have their own spirituality.

Regardless of whether it is in a spiritual vein full of spiritual energy, a barren land with poor spiritual energy, or an evil vein, spiritual materials are spiritual materials, and magical weapons refined from spiritual materials also have the power of magical weapons. .

The land under his feet is different. The reason why it has such powerful characteristics is not because of itself, but because the second-order spiritual veins have been endowed with this characteristic under the nourishment of long years.

If it is taken away from this area, as the spiritual energy on it is lost, it will soon become ordinary.

It's like putting a piece of iron and a magnet together. It also has magnetism, but if you take it away alone, the magnetism will disappear.

This spiritual field, which covers an area of ​​220 acres, has been idle for three years. If it wants to be cultivated again, it must be made loose again, which is hardened with the spiritual energy of the earth and is harder than steel.—— Spiritual seedlings are very fragile, especially spiritual plants that have been planted on a large scale. They have become "pampered" and cannot take root or sprout on their own in such land.

This is not an easy job.

This is true for real monks in the middle stage of foundation building, and it is especially true for him, who is on the second level of foundation building.

But Meng Zhou didn't feel distressed. Instead, he seemed to see a huge spell-leveling field.

Meng Zhou used the Object Control Technique to fill the exploded soil blocks back into the pit, and used the Object Transformation Technique to turn them all into sand, filling the dent created by the explosion evenly.

Then, Meng Zhou came to the central area of ​​this spiritual field.

The mana seeped into the soil beneath his feet through his feet, and the hard soil bonded with the aura of the earth's veins became softer little by little.

Soon, a circle with a radius of five meters and a diameter of ten meters appeared with the place where he stood as the center.

The circle slowly sank and turned into a circular shallow pit.

The shallow pit gradually became deeper, until the depth of the shallow pit reached about half a meter. Meng Zhou ran out of mana and left the place, returning to the quiet room to restore his mana.

Meng Zhou had to lament the difference. Previously, he had opened a temporary cave in the wilderness, and the cavity he dug out of scratch in the rock was more than a thousand times larger than this shallow pit.

But after such a large project, he still had a lot of mana left.

But here, he spent all his energy, and he could only dig down half a meter of a circular pit with a diameter of ten meters.

"This is only a second-level spiritual field. If it were a third-level spiritual field, wouldn't I be able to hoe the ground and break the defense?"

Meng Zhou felt a little incredible, feeling as if he had become a mortal again.

But of course this is an illusion.

The transformation of life levels and the huge increase in life length are all real and will not change due to changes in the environment.

After his mana was restored, Meng Zhou appeared in the circular pit again, and continued to dig deeper with the magic of transformation.

As he went further down, Meng Zhou found that the difficulty became more and more difficult.

Because the aura of the earth veins is more compacted with the soil, the hardness gradually increases.

To "dig" down to the same depth, more and more mana is consumed.

In the next two days, Meng Zhou struggled with this round pit.

Finally, on the evening of the tenth day of the lunar month, a large pit with a diameter of ten meters and a depth of five meters was finally dug.

The walls of the pit are extremely smooth and extremely stiff.

The hardness of the soil here has been further improved.

And the reward that these two and a half days of continuous hard work brought to Meng Zhou was that he gained +3000 experience in the art of chemical transformation, and Meng Zhou's level of mastery of the art of chemical transformation was also directly promoted from the Dacheng level to the master level.

"Master of Physique 1150/4000"

If he hadn't become a master in the art of transformation, the depth of this circular pit would probably only be four meters.

In addition, Cunbu also gained 500 experience points, making his accumulation above Dacheng even deeper.

"One step at a time, 1300/2000"

In addition, he successfully learned the art of cloud and rain from scratch and practiced it all the way to the master level.

"Master of Cloud and Rain Technique 400/4000"

In addition, he also mastered the two new spells of Wind Technique and Flying Sense Technique. This is what Meng Zhou gained after arriving at Sanchuan Plateau and before retreating again on the tenth day of July.

…

July 13th, early morning.

Meng Zhou woke up from more than two days of continuous practice.

Cultivation progress +100, foundation building second floor 302/1000

(The data was written wrong twice before, +10 is the result of one day)

Second level Spring Water Sutra +500, Dacheng 3400/8000

Soul Pool Refining Moon Heart +400, Small Success 520/4000

Black Turtle Body Refining Technique +400, Small Success 600/1200

…

After finishing this peaceful retreat, Meng Zhou didn't think much about it.

Soon he disappeared into the quiet room, and when he reappeared, he was already standing next to the circular pit in the center of the spiritual field.

Meng Zhou looked at the direction of the courtyard of his residence, then swung two crescent blades directly to the ground and flew straight towards the courtyard.

In the end, the two crescent blades, which were no more than fifty centimeters apart from each other, hit the defensive formation and were shattered into pieces.

But where it passed, it left behind two straight lines nearly one mile long and fifty centimeters apart from each other.

Meng Zhou stood with his feet on this narrow line, and Meng Zhou's continuous mana poured into the earth through his feet, and a straight and smooth ditch quickly formed under his feet.

The ditch is fifty centimeters wide and two meters deep.

What's even more outrageous is that Meng Zhou felt that his mana was not consumed fast enough. After already creating a two-meter deep ditch, he backfilled the surface one meter flat. In this way, the ditch was completely buried underground. .

In the future, the land on the ditch for spiritual plant planting can be reused.

In this way, Meng Zhou spent nearly two days using the art of chemical transformation to dig out a trench that was one mile long and buried deep underground.

Finally, Meng Zhou adjusted the formation design and connected the ditch to the pond in the courtyard while ensuring that the water outlet would not become a loophole in the formation.

Meng Zhou opened the baffle, and because of the height difference, the pond water flowed out along the ditch buried deep in the ground.

Soon, it was poured into the circular pit in the center of the spiritual field.

The water level in the pond began to slowly drop.

Standing on the pavilion in the middle of the lake, Meng Zhoudang was attracted by clouds and rain, and a heavy rain fell over the pond.

By noon on July 15th, the water on both sides was completely filled.

…

Transformation experience +1600, Master 2750/4000

Cunbu experience +300, Dacheng 1600/2000

Cloud and Rain Technique experience +400, Master 800/4000

…

On the pavilion in the center of the lake, Meng Zhou once again popped up a mana ball the size of a mung bean and flew into the distance.

While waiting for Governor Li to arrive, Meng Zhou popped up the flying consciousness magic group again and again, but the target was the young lotus seedlings in the pond.

The mana consumption of Flying Sense is low, and the casting speed depends on the amount of information in it. The larger and more complex the amount of information, the longer it takes, and vice versa, the shorter the time.

And Meng Zhou discovered that even if it contains only the briefest message that cannot express a clear meaning, as long as it is used, as long as it is not an "empty message", it will be regarded as a successful use.

Meng Zhou thought of the way he used to cheat by stuffing a piece of paper into a courier package in his previous life, and felt somewhat unkind. However, it was impossible for him to turn a blind eye to the temptation that was similar to the bug on the road.

Therefore, every time he snaps his fingers, a mana ball is shot out, and the experience of the Flying Sense Technique increases by 20.

At first, Meng Zhou just flicked with one finger, and then with two fingers intertwined. Gradually, he was able to move his ten fingers like a virtual pipa, and the mana balls were orderly, fast but not chaotic, and as dense as raindrops. ejaculate.

By the time Governor Li arrived, which didn't take too long, Fei Shishu had already accumulated nearly 8,000 experiences, and had completed all the accumulation from beginner to master. Even the accumulation of master level had reached more than 70%.

"Master of Flying Sense 3250/4000"

Seeing Governor Li's arrival, Meng Zhou stopped playing, but it was the most intense and rapid upgrade experience so far, and he removed the formation outside the courtyard.

Governor Li did not fly in immediately, but turned his head and looked in the direction of Lingtian for a long time, his eyes still moving slowly on the ground between that place and the courtyard.

Meng Zhou knew what he was looking at and didn't rush him. He just waited quietly with a smile on his face.

After a while, Governor Li landed in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, looked at Meng Zhou, and asked curiously: "Fellow Daoist Zhuang, are you doing the reservoirs and underground water channels these days?"

"Of course it's me." Meng Zhou nodded.

"Excuse me, are you doing this?" Governor Li asked curiously.

"I'm a bit lazy, and I don't want to run to the spiritual field every now and then. So I plan to build a reservoir there. I just need to make sure the water is full at all times, and when it's time to water it, I'll have it filled with water. The Qi training servants can just get water from the reservoir for watering."

Meng Zhou explained his intention, then looked at Governor Li and asked:

"Is it okay for me to do this?

Land like yours doesn't necessarily need rootless water, right? "

Governor Li twitched the corner of his mouth and said quickly:

"Of course not, of course not, how can there be such harsh conditions... Now the right to use this spiritual field is yours. You can modify it however you want. I'm just curious and have no other meaning."

After that, he took out a beast bag from his waist, handed it to Meng Zhou, and said:

"Here are a hundred spiritual fish fry prepared for you, take a look."

Meng Zhou's spiritual consciousness penetrated into it, nodded, and then turned the mouth of the beast bag downward and tilted it toward the pond at his feet. Fish smaller than his tail finger scurried out of the middle.

When it fell into the pond, it just flicked its tail and quickly disappeared from the water.

"Thank you." Meng Zhou thanked him and handed the beast bag back to him.

Governor Li collected the animal bag and found a narrow spirit-sealing box nearly one meter long in his hand. He opened the spirit-sealing box, revealing a crisp, fresh green and vibrant spirit plant.

Governor Li introduced:

“This is the Qingling Tea Tree. Although it is only a first-order high-grade spiritual plant now, it has the potential to grow into a second-order spiritual plant.

If you take care of it carefully for a few years, you can drink the second-level spiritual tea grown by yourself at any time. "

"I'm determined!"

Meng Zhou once again thanked Governor Li and Sanchuanhui for their kindness, and carefully took out the Qingling tea tree lying in the sealing box with both hands.

With a slight leap, he arrived at the open space in front of the Yashe, only about two meters away from the pond. The magic power surged, and the magic of transformation loosened the soil.

Because the range is small and the depth is only half a meter above the surface at most, this is something he can accomplish easily now.

Therefore, in Governor Li's eyes, he saw that Taoist Zhuang completed the transplanting of Qingling tea trees with ease.

Before planting the Qingling tea tree, Meng Zhou drank a large amount of spiritual water from a nearby pond and poured it into the soft land.

This land has been dry for too long, and its demand for spiritual water can be described as greedy.

Seeing the whole thing at a glance, Meng Zhou also had a rough judgment on the water demand of the unit's spiritual field.

Even though I had expected it, I couldn't help but feel a little stunned at this moment.

However, the magical side of this land was also vividly displayed in front of Meng Zhou.

Meng Zhou had just finished transplanting the Qingling tea tree, and he clearly felt that the vitality of the Qingling tea tree was quickly absorbed by the aura of the land and firmly rooted in it.

The originally sluggish vitality of the Qingling tea tree quickly came to life, and a few dull leaves became brighter at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"This is because this spiritual land has been dry for too long and barren for too long, so it has the ability to tolerate something that is almost greedy. Therefore, those spiritual plants that are very picky about the soil of the land can basically be quickly accepted here and adapt to it. Grew up here.”

Of course, this must have a basic premise, which is no shortage of water.

Once there is a shortage of water, this land will probably attack the spiritual plant itself.

"Spiritual veins, indeed, nothing is simple."

Thinking of this, Meng Zhou even felt a faint sense of horror in his heart.

This is also a bit too spiritual.

After completing the transplanting of the Qingling tea tree, Meng Zhou shook his head, shook off those messy thoughts, and once again expressed his gratitude to Sanchuan Hui for his hard work.

The two "small gifts" sent by the Sanchuan Society are completely the standard for treating a monk in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

Governor Li asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhuang, have you decided on the Qi Practicing Servants?"

Meng Zhou said: "I looked carefully and found that some of the contents in those booklets were not to my liking.

And, to be honest, I chose to practice Qi Servant mainly so that I can water my fields in the future.

Those in the booklet are really inappropriate. "

Governor Li couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth slightly again. Although it felt a little strange, he had already seen the reservoir just now and he very much recognized what Taoist Zhuang said.

That's not even an inappropriate question, but rather a waste of resources.

So, he nodded and said: "Then I will accompany you to the site today to take a look and choose?"

Meng Zhou nodded: "Then I'll bother the governor."

Governor Li hurriedly said: "It should, it should."

Soon, the two of them fled out of the courtyard one after the other.

After leaving the courtyard, Meng Zhou made a secret to put the formation on the highest alert.

Moreover, this formation was created by his own hands, and his spiritual consciousness is connected. If he encounters any abnormality, he will sense it immediately.

Governor Li took him but did not fly away immediately. Instead, he pointed to a huge stone tablet below and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhuang, do you want to change the name?"

This stone tablet is erected a few hundred meters away from the courtyard farm. On the side facing away from the courtyard, there are three large characters engraved on it, "Xue Tianzhuang".

It is easy to ignore it inside the courtyard, but flying up from the sky in the distance, you can easily see the information on it at the first time.

Meng Zhou immediately understood the purpose of this stone tablet and thought that the previous owner of this place should be named Xue.

Therefore, the place name "Xue Tianzhuang" was randomly chosen.

Meng Zhou thought about what he should name himself, "Xiaoyaoju", "Zizaiyuan"...

One name after another passed through his mind.

But in the end, Meng Zhou was dissatisfied. Either he thought it was too generic, or he thought it was too arrogant or eye-catching.

Suddenly, looking at the three words "Xue Tianzhuang", Meng Zhou had some bad taste in his heart.

So he flew over and put his hand on the stone tablet.

Governor Li was watching with interest, wondering what Taoist Zhuang would name his new residence.

To be honest, this is just a small thing worth mentioning, but it is these little things that are really interesting.

Otherwise, if there is only cultivation in a long life, it would be too dull and boring.

Under Meng Zhou's magic of chemical transformation, the inscribed words on the surface of the stone tablet changed like dough.

First, it seemed to be smoothed out by an invisible hand, and then it turned into a new engraved text.

Wait...one?

Governor Li's eyes widened, and he saw that Fellow Taoist Zhuang had only modified the word "Xue" on the top of the huge stone tablet and changed it to the word "Zhuang".

He didn't even move for the last two words.

It still uses the original handwriting and font of the previous owner.

Moreover, one word is newly carved, and the traces are clear and obvious. The following two words have existed for decades, and have a sense of age and mottled nature accumulated naturally. This seems incongruous.

more importantly--

"Zhuangtianzhuang, Zhuangtianzhuang..."

Governor Li recited both words in a low voice. He looked at Daoist Zhuang who was admiring the stone tablet and could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth again.

Although they were all minor things, he had realized that Zhuang Daoyou was a somewhat special and interesting person.

As for why Meng Zhou only changed the first word, Meng Zhou's idea was very simple. Of course, it was to save mana.

Ever since Governor Li came here and started planting trees, he has used up a lot of mana, and he still has to save the most basic mana for flying back and forth.

Of course, you can save as much mana as you can on other aspects of mana consumption.

Soon, the two set off again, flying towards the town not far away.

The two flew directly over the city wall and landed on the second floor of a restaurant with a huge open-air platform.

And Meng Zhou also saw at a glance a whole wall of message boards, with small wooden signs hanging on them. On each wooden sign, there was the name of a Qi Practitioner and some brief self-introductions and wishes.

Among them, there are those who are willing to follow the foundation-building seniors, and there are also those who hope to seek some positions in a certain chamber of commerce or force.

Governor Li introduced:

"The owner behind this restaurant is a Taoist friend who is in the middle stage of foundation building. He has a mellow and gentle temperament and is a monk born and raised here. Everyone trusts him, and the information they can list here is also credible. Guaranteed.”

Meng Zhou immediately understood that this restaurant was a place for self-expression and job hunting.

At this moment, a middle-aged and elderly monk who was at the ninth level of qi training came quickly to greet him.

Saluting the two of them respectfully, this person is the actual person in charge here and also has the most complete information on these "job seekers".

Meng Zhouren and Meng Zhouren were talking to each other, while he wandered around the building feeling curious.

After walking around for a while, he came to a row of windows. Meng Zhou looked out and saw a patio. Judging from the people coming in and out and the content of casual exchanges, it should be the backyard of the restaurant.

Meng Zhou was about to look away when he saw a young store clerk leading a man into the backyard and to a huge reservoir.

Tell the man: "Today, only the spiritual water of the ten directions is with you."

The man nodded, put ten square meters of water directly into the storage bag, and ordered two middle-grade spiritual stones to the shop assistant on the spot.

Just now, Meng Zhou discovered that the spiritual water in this reservoir was more abundant than the spiritual energy contained in the spiritual water dropped by his cloud and rain technique.

He can do it, but this will further reduce his already low precipitation efficiency, which is unnecessary.

However, as the water used in restaurants, this water is treated more finely.

Although, the combination of spiritual energy and water in this spiritual water is a magical effect, which is far from being comparable to a real natural spiritual spring.

But for Ling Zhi, as long as the quantity is large, the effect is real.

Similarly, if Qi practitioners use it for a long time, it will also be of great benefit.

Moreover, compared with taking elixirs, the biggest advantage is that there are no side effects. It is an excellent combination for cooking spiritual rice or brewing spiritual tea.

Meng Zhou guessed that this man purchased the surplus spiritual water in the restaurant every day and sold it to the Qi-training monks.

Of course, the reason why Meng Zhou noticed the other person immediately was because the other person exuded an aura that made him feel familiar.

Martial arts master.

This was the second time after Yan Xiong that Meng Zhou encountered a practitioner with the foundation of a martial arts master.

Although not all martial arts masters have the talent for cultivation, and not all martial arts masters in the mortal world will give up their wealth and power to embark on the path of seeking immortality.

After all, many martial arts masters rely on age to survive.

The young ones were all in their forties or fifties when they became martial arts masters, while the older ones were more likely to break through and become martial arts masters after the age of sixty.

For them, even if they want to seek immortality, they are already powerless.

Even after the Qi Practitioner turns sixty, the success rate of foundation building is very slim, not to mention that he only started practicing Qi at that time.

But Qingxuan Territory covers a hundred thousand miles, although most of the area is not suitable for mortals to live.

However, there are countless places where mortals live in such a large area, and there will always be martial arts masters who have overcome many obstacles and successfully entered Taoism.

As long as they can overcome this hurdle, based on Meng Zhou's actual experience and the case of Yan Xiong, Meng Zhou is convinced that they will have a more promising future than most Qi practitioners.

If not, "Hu Gui" would not target the group of martial arts masters with his hatred.

What surprised Meng Zhou even more was that this man was only in his thirties, although he already had some gray hair on his temples. In addition, he deliberately acted and looked more mature.

But Meng Zhou can be sure that the other party's oldest age is no more than forty years old.

Meng Zhou couldn't even imagine how old this guy was to reach the top of the mortal world and become a martial arts master.

This achievement alone has surpassed the previous master and Yan Xiong.

The opponent's cultivation level has now reached the sixth level of Qi training.

However, without special circumstances, the other party's achievements would probably stop there.

Because Meng Zhou could tell at a glance that the internal meridians of the opponent's seemingly intact left arm had been broken and atrophied many years ago.

With such a mutilated body, he could actually reach the sixth level of Qi training at this age, which is already very staggering.

But it was impossible for him to break through to the late stage of Qi training with such a broken body.

For those born with disabilities, this is a very cruel fact.

After getting the water, the man left the backyard of the restaurant and went to the street outside.

Meng Zhou's consciousness followed him all the way to the street, and then he realized that there was another person waiting for him outside.

She is a female cultivator with an ordinary appearance and figure.

But Meng Zhou saw through her disguise at a glance. What surprised him was that this woman was also a martial arts master!

She is a few years older than the man, but to a martial arts master, she is still young and promising.

Her cultivation level is slightly lower than that of the man, and she is currently at the fifth level of Qi training.

The two exchanged a few words over a brief message, and Meng Zhou knew that these two were a Taoist couple who broke through common taboos.

In such a place, Meng Zhou unexpectedly encountered such a pair of martial arts masters, and Meng Zhou couldn't help but reminisce in his heart.

His memories are not of this life, but of the previous life.

"It really looks like it." Meng Zhou thought to himself.

The two people were moving away, and would soon be beyond the range of his spiritual consciousness.

Meng Zhou couldn't help but said to the two of them through his spiritual consciousness: "Please come to the second floor to meet the virtuous couple."

On the street in the distance, two figures who were retreating suddenly froze.

But faced with the call of a strong foundation builder, they had only one choice.

Soon, the two of them climbed to the second floor and came to Meng Zhou.

The man saluted Meng Zhou respectfully and said, "I have met my senior."

The woman followed the man behind and greeted him with a gentle salute.

Then, the man asked directly: "I wonder why senior called us here?"

Meng Zhou said directly: "I came here to find two assistants who can take care of some chores for me. I think you two are very suitable."

Hearing this, the woman did not reply, but looked at the man.

The man paused, shook his head and refused: "Sorry, senior, we don't work as servants for others."

Faced with the man's rejection, Meng Zhou was not angry. Instead, he looked at the woman and said through his spiritual consciousness:

"I can heal his arm. Of course, the premise is that what you do for me is truly worthy of this favor."

I admit that if we follow the strict Gou Dao style, it would be best to find a few mediocre people here, but...

Am I going astray?

However, I believe that readers who have been able to read all the way to this point will no longer care about this way of writing, right?
