I rely on length to cultivate immortality
Chapter 2: Violating the decision of our ancestors
Li Xiuchang felt a little painful. He used one inch of the two inches of "length" he had accumulated from practicing martial arts for half a year.
It was used to add one inch to the "air column".
But in exchange for not having to bear the "blessings" in the future, it was still worth it!
About a year and a half ago, when he just crossed over, he found a small number "0" in the lower left corner of his vision.
At first, he didn't know what this number meant, and had many guesses, until he started cooking...
The original owner of Li Xiuchang's body, that is, Li Chang, had been a chef for generations. Counting from the family tree, eight generations were chefs, so Li Chang was also a chef.
It is said that the Li family had an imperial chef in their ancestor, but the time was too long ago and there was no way to verify it, at least it could not be found in the family tree.
Li Chang's father was poor and downtrodden all his life, and he always had high hopes for Li Chang, hoping that he could restore the glory of his ancestors one day.
Li Chang did not disappoint his father. At the age of fifteen, he became the head chef of the best restaurant in town, "Zuixianlou". Unfortunately, Li's father and mother died early and did not see this day.
With Li Chang's talent for cooking, he may become the second imperial chef of the Li family in the future.
However, he was too young to think clearly and was obsessed with getting married. In order to save his wife, he worked day and night. In addition to working in the restaurant, he also took a lot of private jobs outside.
He saved his wife, but before he married her, Li Chang fell down from exhaustion, which led to Li Xiuchang's travel.
When Li Xiuchang traveled through time and learned that this was a world of cultivating immortals, he immediately made a decision that went against his ancestors. He would not be a cook!
He wanted to go to seek immortals.
However, there was no way to seek immortals for the time being, so Li Xiuchang planned to continue working as a cook while looking for ways to cultivate immortals.
But who knew that when he first used the cooking skills inherited from Li Chang to make a dish, the number "0" in his sight changed and became "0.01".
Li Xiuchang, who has been familiar with online articles and has many years of reading experience, immediately started to associate and suspected that this might be a standard plug-in for time travelers.
But apart from the change in numbers, there was no other abnormality, and Li Xiuchang still didn't understand what the number represented.
Maybe it was necessary to reach a certain value before the plug-in could be activated... With such a guess, Li Xiuchang changed his mind.
He temporarily gave up the idea of abandoning cooking and becoming an immortal, and continued to be a cook in Zuixianlou.
Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood, he planned to activate the plug-in before going to cultivate immortality.
Although he knew that cooking could increase the value, Li Xiuchang didn't dare to be too hard because of Li Chang's previous experience.
His body was overdrawn too much by Li Chang, and if he didn't take good care of his body, he might follow in Li Chang's footsteps, so he took care of his body while working as a cook to save the value.
The value increased very slowly, not just by cooking a dish to increase by 0.01. Sometimes the value did not change at all for several consecutive days, and sometimes it could increase by several 0.01 a day. Li Xiuchang couldn't find a pattern for a while.
After a year, Li Xiuchang's body recovered, and the number in the lower left corner of his vision finally climbed to "1".
It was also at that time that he felt something in his heart and understood the meaning and usage of the numbers in his field of vision.
That is "length"!
The unit "inch" should be added after the number.
"1" represents one inch, "2" represents two inches...
He can add this length to anything he can see.
However, each time the length is added, it must be an integer, and the part less than one inch after the decimal point cannot be used.
Li Xiuchang, who activated the plug-in, was extremely happy and couldn't wait to find something to test whether the plug-in works. However, this inch of length was not easy to come by, and he was in a dilemma at the time.
He looked at himself in the mirror, with a tall figure and a clean face, and he was considered a handsome man.
The height was enough, there was no need to increase it.
He lowered his head again, thought for a moment, and shook his head. It was meaningless to make the length longer.
Finally, Li Xiuchang used all his savings to exchange a piece of gold leaf and came back, intending to try to turn the gold leaf into a "gold brick".
He took care of his body this year, took a lot of precious medicinal materials, and did not treat himself badly in terms of food. He had almost squandered the money left by Li Chang's wife.
Considering that he would definitely need money to seek immortals later, he planned to use this precious first inch of length to solve his financial problems.
The experiment was of course successful. Li Xiuchang received a gold brick and also consumed the one inch of length he had accumulated from cooking for a year.
After a year of exploration, he had a better understanding of his length plug-in, summarized a lot of experience, and roughly figured out the accumulation pattern of this length value.
First of all, it is not only cooking that can increase the length value.
Doing needlework, carpentry, bricklaying, and even farming can increase the length value.
But it is not faster than cooking.
Secondly, there should be a hidden value behind the length value-proficiency!
Whenever his proficiency in a certain skill improves, the length value will increase.
Therefore, when he cooks seriously, summarizes experience, and summarizes methods, the speed of increasing the length value is obviously faster than usual.
But if he is absent-minded and his mind wanders, even if he cooks more dishes, the length value will increase very slowly.
Li Xiuchang originally thought that in front of the length value, there is no distinction between high and low skills. Whether you are a cook, a tailor, or a carpenter, the speed of accumulating length values is almost the same.
Until he started practicing martial arts...
Practicing martial arts for half a year in Nanshan Martial Arts Hall, I gained two inches of length, which is equivalent to working as a cook for two years!
Li Xiuchang had an idea at that time: martial arts training increases so fast, so if I want to practice immortality, won’t it take off?
…
After passing the qualification test, Li Xiuchang also moved into the Baiyun City Lord’s Mansion and lived a carefree life of eating and drinking for two days.
Two days later, the qualification test was over. Senior Brother Song Yu finally finished his work and summoned Li Xiuchang and others.
There were eight people in Baiyun City who passed the qualification test this time, among whom only Pang Yuanfu had a high-grade spiritual orifice, and there were two people with a medium-grade spiritual orifice including Li Xiuchang, and the rest were low-grade spiritual orifices.
Li Xiuchang was still a fake, but in fact he was also a low-grade spiritual orifice.
Among thousands of people, only eight people were selected. Song Yu was actually pleased: "There are so many talented people in Baiyun City."
Pang Yuanfu rolled his eyes and said in a friendly way: "Senior Brother Song is also from Baiyun City?"
Song Yu smiled and said: "You are living in my house now."
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they reacted, and suddenly remembered that the mayor of Baiyun City seemed to have the surname Song.
"Okay, I will take you back to Xianchen Sect later. I have to explain some things to you in advance." Song Yu rarely put away the smile on his face and said seriously.
Li Xiuchang and others were all alert and listened attentively.
"We don't support idlers in Xianchen Sect!"
"The sect teaches you how to practice and supplies spiritual veins for you to practice. Naturally, each of you must make contributions to the sect."
Speaking of this, Song Yu glanced at the five people with low-grade spiritual orifices and said, "Registered disciples are responsible for the miscellaneous affairs of the sect. When you arrive at the sect, someone will arrange work for you."
Then, he looked at Li Xiuchang and another girl with medium-grade spiritual orifices: "Outer disciples need to choose one of the hundreds of arts of cultivating immortals to practice. After you have mastered the skills, the sect will arrange some tasks for you every year according to your skill level.
"For example, the task of the alchemist is to refine a certain amount of elixirs for the sect every year. The formation master will be responsible for the daily maintenance of some formations of the sect... Of course, it is not in vain, and you can get contribution points as a reward. "
Finally, Song Yu's eyes fell on Pang Yuanfu: "For registered disciples and outer disciples, as long as their spiritual aptitude is good enough, they can be called disciples. But if you want to become an inner disciple, you need to undergo further assessments after returning to the sect. Both your comprehension and character must be good enough. Otherwise, even if you have a top-grade spiritual aptitude, you can only become an outer disciple."
Pang Yuanfu's face froze, and after a moment he asked: "Senior Brother Song, what are the responsibilities of inner disciples?"
"Inner disciples only need to practice with one heart, but even if you become an inner disciple, you must not slack off. Your teacher will regularly check your progress. If you are found to be lazy, you will be fined at the least, or directly deprived of your inner identity and sent to the outer sect. "
After listening to Senior Brother Song Yu's introduction, Li Xiuchang found that the identity of this outer sect disciple was the most suitable for him.
He didn't have to do menial work like the registered disciples, nor did he have to be urged to practice like the inner sect disciples.
As for the "Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation", even if the sect did not require it, Li Xiuchang would take the initiative to practice.
This is the skill of immortal cultivation!
Cooking for a year can save one inch of length, practicing martial arts for half a year can save two inches of length, what if it takes half a year to refine the elixir? What about setting up the formation for half a year?
The sect assigned him a task, which he simply wanted. For him, it was like the sect gave him materials to save length.
Li Xiuchang understood that his low-grade spiritual orifice and his achievements in cultivation were limited. Only by accumulating more length and using the length to assist in cultivation could he hope to go further on the immortal path.
