I work as a cook in Xuanmen

Chapter 2 Entering the Xuanqing Sect for the First Time

When I opened my eyes, I saw an old-fashioned wooden house above me. It seemed that I was not alone. There were probably people living on top of it. I could hear the creaking sound of feet walking on the wooden floorboards.

I got up, tidied my messy clothes and hair, and prepared to go out to take a look.

I'm not afraid of being deceived by a half-immortal. Even if he has such magical power, why would he harm me, an inconspicuous mortal?

I was curious about where he took me.

Opening the door, there is a large square outside, surrounded by fog, and the top of the mountain can be seen emerging from the top.

Many people are practicing martial arts in the square. Maybe they are not practicing martial arts, but practicing magic.

It’s just that the weapons in their hands are different. There are swords, deformable balls, lamps used by ancient people for lighting, various weapons, and even needles, needles for sewing at home.

The cows, horses and sheep flying in the sky are probably not cows, horses and sheep, but they have some similarities. There are many animals that I can't even name.

I was looking at it, but someone blocked my view.

"You are the little uncle brought back by Master, right?" His voice was nice, a little slow and low, and he should have a gentler personality.

He was facing the light and could not see his appearance clearly. From the light, he could tell that he was a handsome man.

"Ah? Junior uncle? I'm not, I am... my name is Qingwan." Suddenly I didn't know how to introduce myself to him. Now my mind is still confused, and I don't even know where I was taken.

"Can I ask where the uncle who brought me here has gone? I want to go back, can you help me?" Later, Li Yun introduced me, and I found out that the person who brought me here was the sect leader of Xuanqing Sect. Tianqi, a Dzogchen monk in the stage of becoming a god.

I actually didn't know where I wanted to go back, and I felt a sour feeling of having nowhere to go that swept through my body.

"Master has been down the mountain for a few days. When he left, he promised to take you back. Now that you have just come back, how can I let you go."

"..." It turns out that I didn't travel through time. I was speechless for a moment. I'll make peace with it now that I've come. Let's see what they want to do first.

"Come with me, I will take you to see your master." Before I could speak, he said again.

Along the way, he introduced himself and the sect, "My name is Li Yun. Nowadays, the Li generation is relatively high. Apart from the masters and masters, I am the highest Li generation."

"And our Xuanqing Sect is now considered one of the top sects in the world of cultivation. There are countless cultivators in the hundreds of thousands of realms in Longteng Continent. Although the human world is only opened once every twenty years, one of my sect masters can travel through the six realms at will. Otherwise, I won’t be able to find you this time.” After speaking, Li Yun probably realized that she had said the wrong thing and coughed lightly.

"A well that crosses the six realms?" I was suddenly curious about what kind of well could cross the six realms.

"Shh..." Li Yun looked around guiltily before saying, "Although this is not a secret, you pretend not to know, otherwise I will be doomed."

When the master came back, he told him not to let this little girl know about the well, lest she want to go back, which would cause trouble.

Li Yun added, "Although this is not a secret, the method to open this well is difficult, so it is not easy to open it once."

"What method..." I wanted to ask again, but Li Yun changed direction.

Only then did I realize that I had just been carried up to the top of the mountain by Li Yun standing on a large stone slab.

On the top of the mountain stands a house with carved beams and painted beams. Eight glazed lamps are hung around the eaves. Even though it is daytime, the lights are still on.

The firelight glowed green, and the glowing light seemed to penetrate people's hearts, making me feel pure and peaceful from head to toe, and I no longer had the impetuous state of mind I had just been in.

Li Yun saw me staring at the glass lamp in a daze, so she added, "That's a broken-seal lamp, which can illuminate all demonic obstacles. Many senior brothers will choose the caves around Qingtianya for retreat."

After speaking, he pointed to the surrounding cliffs. The peaks were steep and straight, as if they were straight into the sky. There were thick trees and luxuriant grass on the cliffs, and many caves could be seen hidden in the gaps.

"It's so high, can they all fly?"

"Of course they are all in the city. The senior brothers who can come to Qingtianya for retreat have all passed the elixir-building stage. Those who practice qi and foundation-building stages are all in the square below." As he said that, he pointed to the square where we came. . Wherever you can look now, you can see a piece of mist billowing under Qingtianya, and nothing else can be seen.

"It's so gloomy here, aren't you afraid of getting rheumatic bone disease?"

Li Yun was stunned by my unconventional thinking, and then she chuckled, "Of course not. This is spiritual energy, not mist. The stronger the spiritual energy, the bigger the fog will be."

I smiled awkwardly, "So that's the case. I'm so weird."

"It's okay. If you don't understand anything in the future, you can always ask me." Li Yun smiled understandingly.

I wanted to add a contact information, but then I remembered that I lost my phone, "I lost my phone, how can I contact you in the future?"

"Oh, we don't have mobile phones here. I saw it when I went to the human world before, but we have a Tongxin Bell here. As long as you think about the person you want to contact, you can contact them." Li Yun said, taking it from her arms A little bell came out.

"How much does this cost?" I reached out and touched it, but the bell didn't ring.

"You can buy an ordinary Tongxin Bell with a medium-grade spiritual stone. There are also monks who specialize in refining it. If you can learn it, the refining cost is very low, but it is not easy to learn it." Li Yun continued to answer my questions.

"How do I get a medium-grade spiritual stone? I'm penniless now..." I felt a little embarrassed and took out my pocket to show him.

He was amused by my funny look, and his gentle and shallow smile made his already handsome face even warmer. That smile seemed to penetrate my heart, and I pressed my breath into it one by one.

I reached out to cover my heart that was about to beat, took a breath, turned around and ran towards Zongzheng Hall.

It was so scary, I was almost killed by his smile. Although I have never been in love, I have had a crush on such a person. Knowing this feeling makes me feel a little moved.

I have never seen any handsome guy before, why is it so useless to come here.

Now is not the time to think about this. He and I are not from the same world, let alone from the same century. A person like him who is from the same generation of the sect must be at least several hundred years old.

Li Yun was probably stunned by my sudden turn around, and it took her a while to catch up, "The sect master hasn't arrived yet, don't worry."

I lowered my head, not daring to look into his eyes, for fear that he would look at my blushing shy face and make me laugh.

"Our low-level disciples here can practice magic and work to earn spiritual stones." He saw me lowering my head, and his voice was unconsciously lowered, with a little caution.

Seeing that I still didn't answer, he continued, "For example, helping in the kitchen, sweeping, farming, feeding spiritual pets, and picking fairy fruits. If you can reach the sixth level of Qi training, you can do some easy tasks, refine some simple things, and take them down the mountain with you." If you exchange some things, you can go outside to find fairy grass."

"Oh, then I..."

"Master said that you are good at cooking. When he came, he asked you to help cook."

"How many spiritual stones do you need to help cook?" Regarding the issue of my own survival, I no longer hesitated, looked directly at Li Yun, and asked in a somewhat anxious tone.

"Ah... thirty low-grade spiritual stones for a month as a cook!"

"How much does it cost to exchange for a medium-grade spiritual stone?"

"The conversion of each level of spiritual stone is one thousand yuan."

Put it this way, for thirty low-grade spiritual stones a month, I have to go without food and drink for more than three years before I can buy a Tongxin Bell?

This is too expensive.

At least I can buy a better mobile phone with one month's salary in the human world, but things here are too expensive.
