Longevity Fairy: Sister, Please Wait A Little Longer

Chapter 25: Chu Bai, On-Site Teaching (Seeking More Chapters!)

In the world of Chu Bai's dreams, where hard work yields rewards, the high-risk occupation of a miner would have long collapsed if they were only provided with food and shelter without pay.

However, for cultivators, gold and silver can only be considered worldly possessions, and they can have as much as they want with their abilities.

As for the outer disciples with cultivation potential, they can only receive 10 pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stones as their monthly salary. It is only natural for the menial disciples to not receive any.

Originally, the Spirit Stones were of no use to them.

There are nearly a hundred thousand menial disciples in the Azure Cloud Sect, so 10 pieces of Low Grade Spirit Stones per person per month is a huge sum.

The sect is not a charitable organization, and the disciples should also understand the sect's situation.

All of this has never changed since the founding ancestor, Li Qingyun.

The Dharma cannot be easily passed on, and this is an eternal truth.

It is precisely because of this that Chu Bai used the Spirit Stone cultivation method to lead the way, and in just half a month, the one hundred menial disciples of Mine No. 17 underwent a great transformation.

...

In the mining area of the Azure Cloud Mountain Range, on the mountain, a slightly chilly wind blew once again.

Chu Bai, wearing a white mask, held a wooden stick and patrolled in front of and behind the menial disciples who were standing at attention, cursing loudly, "Damn it, who the hell came up with the idea of stealing from the neighboring mine? I can't believe you guys thought of that!"

The menial disciples kept their gaze forward, their expressions as serious as Chu Bai's.

When Senior Brother Bai suddenly disappeared in the morning, they knew something was wrong.

Senior Brother Bai had always been good to them, so scolding them a few times was only fair.

"I also heard that someone told the other disciples that I taught you guys to steal. Did I teach you guys to steal?" Chu Bai asked.

Kong Xiu, who had received Senior Brother Bai's care, couldn't help but reply, "Senior Brother, we can't call it stealing. I swear, we didn't keep a single bit of the ore we dug from outside!"

Chu Bai said, "Nonsense, if you guys kept it, would I still be alive? Kong Er Gou, step forward!"

"Yes, Senior Brother!"

Kong Xiu, who was tall and thin, stepped to the front and stood at attention.

Chu Bai asked him, "Who else was with you when you stole the spiritual ore?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Kong Xiu remained silent, so Chu Bai placed the wooden stick against his neck and said, "I don't like nonsense, you guys know that."

At this moment, Wang Yong, the first one to step forward, said, "Senior Brother, count me in!"

Chu Bai nodded, "Very well."

One after another, the menial disciples stepped forward.

"Senior Brother, I went too!"

"I went too, Senior Brother!"

...

In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, all one hundred people took that step forward.

Chu Bai looked at them coldly, "So you all went?"

They replied, "Yes!"

"Good, since you all embarrassed me outside, the Spirit Stone cultivation method for the past three days will be canceled, and each of you will have to mine for an extra hour!"

They replied, "Yes, Senior Brother!"

The one hundred menial disciples ran back to the mine with their hoes on their backs.

In fact, on the day when all one hundred people passed the test of lifting a thousand catties, Chu Bai had already noticed something.

However, he didn't expect that these guys would come up with such a crooked plan.

After Mine No. 17 was sealed off at nightfall, it was highly likely that they would take turns organizing manpower to ensure that everyone received the reward of Spirit Stones.

As for the rewards for the top three in the cultivation method, these guys had already arranged the order among themselves.

Chu Bai, who spent his days on the mountain, didn't know who did it or how they did it.

But the fact that they realized the power of "unity" within half a month was not in vain, and Chu Bai had protected them from Aunt Nan's wrath.

On the first day I arrived here, Chu Bai's plan still had many flaws.

But there was one thing, Chu Bai alone couldn't take care of nearly a hundred thousand miscellaneous disciples.

So the seventeenth day of the month was an experimental field, and these one hundred people were the seeds Chu Bai sowed.

"If there are rewards, there must be punishments. Holding back for three days can also help them deepen their bond."

Chu Bai weighed the storage bag at his waist and received a new thousand pieces of spiritual stones. He could continue his cultivation at double speed.

...

At the same time, in the dimly lit mine, Kong Xiu was complaining there.

"Hey, you guys, I spoke up voluntarily just to let Senior Bai punish me, there's no need for all of you to join in."

Wang Yong, not far away, said, "There's no need for that. Do you really think Senior Bai wouldn't dare to kill you?... Senior Bai is a cultivator, one strike could take your life."

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"...

Everyone raised their hoes and started mining.

Kong Xiu smiled foolishly and said, "I'm so handsome, Senior Brother shouldn't be willing to kill me, right?"

"Hahaha!" Everyone laughed.

They had been together for nearly six years, and a few days ago was the first time they faced difficulties together.

Today was the second time, facing Senior Bai's punishment stick, it was a completely new feeling for everyone.

Canceling the three-day reward would delay nine people from obtaining the [Wolf Heaven Technique] for three days, and the loss of spiritual stones was also significant.

But compared to the trouble caused by the commotion, this loss was nothing at all.

Nearly sixty disciples who had started on the path of cultivation, the old man was guiding the newcomers.

The same applied to Body Refining, physique was the foundation of cultivation, the content of the [Wolf Heaven Technique] couldn't be revealed, but Senior Brother had hinted at some unrelated matters to cultivation, it didn't matter.

After all, sooner or later, they would all cultivate.

They were different from other miscellaneous disciples, they were the ones chosen by Senior Bai.

From the beginning, they knew that Senior Bai was a good person.

This time, Senior Brother was scolded for them, so they had to work harder in cultivation and mining, to save face for Senior Brother!

...

Three days later,

A hundred wolves rushed into the seventeenth mine, shouting their slogans. It took five hours, and the worst one dug up one thousand and ten catties of Spirit Vein ore.

This time, no one cheated, it was the cooperation between Senior Brothers.

Chu Bai looked at the dirty men one by one, waving the wooden stick, "If this can be done, why did you have to steal?"

Most of them had exerted all their strength, panting heavily at this moment. When they heard this, they apologized one after another, "Senior Brother, we were wrong!"

"We shouldn't have stolen things!"

"We caused trouble for you!"

"We shouldn't have talked nonsense!"

This was a set phrase, saying that the seventeenth mine could still be exchanged for spiritual stones.

Chu Bai pointed at them and said, "To know one's mistakes and make improvements is the greatest virtue. Do you know what the biggest mistake you made is?"

Answering his own question, "It's being too stupid."

"Just stealing a few pieces of ore, and you actually got caught. Don't tell me you climbed up someone else's mountain so brazenly.

And also, you have sixty disciples who are cultivating, the total cultivation level of the miscellaneous disciples within a three-thousand-mile radius of the Azure Cloud Mountain Range is not as high as yours.

And yet, you still got caught. I really wasted my time teaching you!"

The hundred people who had been holding back for three days were dumbfounded.

After dozens of breaths, Er Gou Kong Xiu finally came to his senses and said with joy, "Senior Brother, we understand, what you said is right, we were too stupid!"

"Listening to Senior Bai's words is better than reading for ten years!"

"That's right, Senior Brother, tonight we'll go to the nearby mountain again and regain all the face we lost!"

Chu Bai said, "Get lost, I didn't ask you to be thieves."

"And also, I have something happy to share with others, but you idiots don't even know how to pretend. Let me tell you, this is how you say it!"
