On the tower in the north of Xiadu, hundreds of masons are building a new watchtower.
When Li Changsheng stood on the tower, it was dark outside, and there was a fog shrouded in the distance, which was a little weird.
"Hurry up and don't be lazy."
There were soldiers watching upstairs, and the masons naturally did not dare to be lazy. Li Changsheng was assigned by the foreman to a convenient place to start working.
Li Changsheng also knows how to work as a mason, but he is not proficient, but with some old masons, he will be at a loss after a few days of learning.
"Boy, come here."
When Li Changsheng was moving bricks, suddenly the foreman pointed to himself and said.
Li Changsheng was a little bored, and followed the foreman towards a figure in the distance.
It was an old man, dressed in a black robe, looking full of energy, without any sense of aging.
"Master Immortal." The foreman nodded and bowed, looking extremely respectful.
The old man just waved his hand, and the foreman retreated tactfully. The old man raised his eyes slightly and looked at Li Changsheng.
"Hand out."
When Li Changsheng heard that the other party was a fairy teacher, his heart tightened, but he obediently stretched out his hand over.
The old man stretched out his old fingers and tapped Li Changsheng's wrist lightly.
"Five Lines of Miscellaneous Spiritual Roots..."
The old man raised his eyebrows, and the gleam in his eyes quickly dissipated.
The five series of miscellaneous spiritual roots are also called waste spiritual roots. Those like Li Changsheng are not even counted as waste spiritual roots, it is the same as having no spiritual roots.
"How many years have you practiced?"
The old man glanced at Li Changsheng and asked indifferently.
"Reporting to Immortal Master, I have practiced for ten years."
Li Changsheng dare not lie, he has practiced for ten years, I don't know if this talent is considered outstanding?
"Who did you learn from?" the old man continued to ask.
"I learned it from a passing fairy teacher in the early years." Li Changsheng said after a pause.
"Ten years of cultivation to the first level of Qi Refining, which is considered outstanding among mortals."
The old man smiled, "Among monks, you don't even count as beginners."
"Master Immortal, do you think I can become a monk?"
Li Changsheng asked curiously.
"No, you have almost no miscellaneous spiritual roots. You can reach your level by just grabbing a mortal and teaching it for a few years. Qi Refining is enough to strengthen your body."
The old man quickly made a judgment.
The five-line miscellaneous spirit roots like Li Changsheng are too superficial. Other people's five-line miscellaneous spirit roots are relatively strong, but Li Changsheng's miscellaneous spirit roots are too weak.
According to the practice world, this is called a recessive miscellaneous spirit root. If you marry and have children to produce the next generation, continuous genetic improvement may produce a dominant miscellaneous spirit root, then you can barely get started and become a monk.
However, generally large sects will not accept the five series of miscellaneous spirit roots, unless there is a shortage of manpower, they will accept a few for use.
Therefore, a miscellaneous spiritual root like Li Changsheng can only be an Independent Cultivator in the cultivation world at best. After a few decades, he will run out of fuel and have no future.
The monks of the Qi Refining Stage live a little longer than ordinary people, most of them can live to be eighty, ninety or even a hundred years old, but they will never exceed 200 years old.
Only monks who have reached the Foundation Building Stage can live to an average of more than 200 years old.
"Go down."
"yes."
Li Changsheng bowed and retreated. The masons around heard him and looked at Li Changsheng in surprise.
Unexpectedly, Li Changsheng was still a monk, but the immortal master didn't like him at all.
In the eyes of a real mortal, as long as he has a little bit of a monk, he is a capable person. Even if Li Changsheng is degraded by the immortal master, he is a little better than a mortal.
The old man Yi Shuo watched Li Changsheng go away, when he came up just now, Yi Shuo noticed his Qi Refining aura.
I thought it was an Independent Cultivator monk, but I called him over to investigate and found out that it was a kid with miscellaneous spirit roots who didn't know where he learned from.
In the eyes of the cultivators, this kind of waste and miscellaneous spiritual roots are not spiritual roots at all, they can only be regarded as a little stronger than ordinary people, not to mention that Li Changsheng's spiritual roots are still hidden, and they are even less spiritual roots.
Many mortals have this kind of hidden miscellaneous spiritual roots. After several generations of reproduction and improvement, there is a chance to produce descendants of spiritual roots.
Mortals with hidden miscellaneous spiritual roots can also practice basic skills such as Qi Refining.
After a few years of practice, one can reach the first level of Qi Refining. If you work hard, you can reach the second level of Qi Refining after 30 to 50 years of practice.
But it can only stop here, and this kind of mortal can be regarded as a qigong master at best, not a monk.
Not paying attention to Li Changsheng, Yi Shuo turned his gaze to the distance. Outside the northern city, there is a very dark atmosphere. From here, you can reach the border of the Yaozu by flying northward.
"There will be an immortal master sitting on the towers in the four directions of the imperial city, southeast, northwest, and that is the real immortal master. Even the emperor has to give these immortal masters three points of face."
"Excellent, I saw the immortal master today, and I can't usually see it."
"Hehe, usually even if you see it, you can't tell the difference. If the immortal masters don't reveal their aura, they will be the same as us mortals."
"makes sense."
On the way back, an old mason talked eloquently about the immortal master in the North Tower, boasting that he had been stationed on the tower for at least a hundred years.
It is also said that his lifespan has reached five hundred years, which surprised Li Changsheng.
The lifespan of ordinary people is extremely short, and the lifespan of immortal masters can be long or short. People who can be called immortal masters have a life span of two to three hundred years.
Li Changsheng followed the masons to a tavern and had a good meal.
In order to save money, some masons would bring their own tents, mats and quilts and go back to nest under the tower for the night.
Because they are masons, the soldiers will not drive them away.
Some masons rented a dilapidated empty house with the boss in the tavern, and it was very cheap because there were no beds or furniture.
This is also the daily life of day laborers in the imperial city. They look like wandering around like a beggar, but they are several times better than a beggar.
Li Changsheng watched them sleeping on the floor in the empty, simple house. Compared with them, he had no worries, no worries, and no need to run around for his family, so he had nothing to complain about.
The next day, Li Changsheng and the others came to the tower again, and in a blink of an eye they saw two soldiers posting notices at the gate of the tower.
"Recruitment? Anyone between the ages of 16 and 30 can sign up to join the army, and the treatment... I'll be good, 200 taels of silver a year, retirement pension, and good land as a gift."
"Suddenly recruiting troops, is this going to war?"
Looking at the recruiting information, everyone was shocked, and some old masons were pretending to be contemplative.
"Being a soldier is well paid, but you will die."
"The pension is high even after death, and it's worth fighting for the family."
"..."
The surrounding people gathered around, discussing in one go, and Li Changsheng climbed up the tower just after seeing one.
Serve as a soldier? He is not happy.
