Creation furnace

"One sword, two swords, three swords..."

'Swish'... On this day, Ji Die was holding a long sword and cutting bamboo trees in the bamboo forest.

In the afternoon, Yun Su came to check. A wooden sword appeared in his hand, which was sharp. With a casual chop, the spiritual bamboo that Ji Die had worked hard to chop down was divided into neat sections like cutting melons and vegetables, like firewood.

This made Ji Die's pupils shrink slightly. This was the first time he saw Yun Su's strength.

Although he had a hunch before that she was probably at least in the late stage of foundation building, it was not until this moment that he had a deep understanding of her strength.

With a casual sword, she easily cut off the bamboo that she had to chop with great effort, and it seemed that she had not used all her strength... Fortunately, she misjudged her strength that day and did not do it herself, otherwise...

"Castrate you..." Thinking of her previous words, Ji Die suddenly felt a chill.

Yun Su happened to glance at him intentionally or unintentionally.

Ji Die coughed dryly and said respectfully: "Sister Yun... is mighty."

Yun Su turned her head indifferently, but did not really take action. Her long sword was like a rainbow, sprinting around, cutting the spiritual bamboo he had cut into neat pieces and putting them into the storage bag.

"Okay, follow me. Starting tomorrow, you have a new task."

Ji Die nodded, and was also secretly guessing what she was going to do with these spiritual bamboos.

Without saying a word, the two of them shuttled through the bamboo forest and came to the outside of two bamboo buildings. These two bamboo buildings are divided into two floors, and I don't know if they are her residences.

"There are many books in this bamboo building. You have to come and clean the dust every day in the future..." Yun Su walked to the bamboo building on the left, creaked, and pushed the door open.

Ji Die followed her and looked up. There were many wooden shelves on the first floor, and bamboo slips were piled up like mountains.

"These bookshelves need to be wiped every day, and the floor needs to be wiped as well, and... the scriptures inside are all very important. If there is any mistake, you will be held responsible. Do you understand?" Yun Su took out a bucket and a rag from the storage bag.

"I'll check it later."

"I understand, I'll be careful." Ji Die thought of the scene in the bamboo forest before, nodded obediently, and started a new task.

Cleaning.

Soak the rag in water, wring it out, and wipe it on the bookshelf. Soak it in water again, wring it out, and wipe it again...

There are about dozens of wooden shelves in this building, and it takes a long time to wipe them all.

Yun Su was watching from the side, not knowing whether she was supervising him to prevent him from being lazy. After a while, she left.

"Finally left." Ji Die kept an eye on her movements. After she left, he threw the towel into the bucket and stretched.

There was actually no dust on the bookshelf. It was the same whether it was wiped or not. When Yun Su was here, he just did some superficial work.

Now that he was gone, there was no need to pretend. He is not the kind of old-fashioned person.

"I don't know what is recorded on these bamboo slips." Anyway, there was nothing to do at the moment, so Ji Die picked up a bamboo slip and looked at it. After seeing the content on it, his eyes flickered slightly, and he picked up another bamboo slip...

After checking more than a dozen bamboo slips in a row, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air,

"All of them are introductions to spiritual medicines!"

The bamboo slips he just read, without exception, were all about the names, characteristics, and effects of spiritual medicines, which he had basically never seen before.

But how could there be so many of these things here.

Could it be that the elder of the third peak is an alchemist?

Ji Die was surprised and suspicious. He had a guess about the identity of the elder of the third peak. There was nothing else to do at the moment, so he simply looked through the bamboo slips on the wooden shelf.

He knew a lot of spiritual medicines, there should be thousands of them, but compared to such a large library, it was not worth mentioning.

He didn't know many of the spiritual medicines recorded on it.

An hour later, the sunset was hanging in the sky. Yun Su appeared at the door and said, "I asked you to clean up, what are you doing!?"

"Ahem! I've already wiped it. My senior sister didn't come, so I just took a look..." Ji Die heard her voice and calmly hid the bamboo slips in his hand behind him.

"You are kidding me, the water in this bucket is still so clean." This action naturally did not escape Yun Su's eyes. She glanced at the bucket and found that it was not so easy to fool.

Ji Die's face was not red, and his heart was not beating. "That's because these wooden frames are very clean, so after wiping them, the water is not dirty."

He thought that this reason was perfect, and those wooden frames were indeed very clean.

But in the end, he was no match for the fact that a higher-ranking official can crush a person.

"I don't care, wipe it again!"

...

It was almost evening, and it was a little dark in the bamboo building. Ji Die finally wiped every wooden frame.

This time, Yun Su didn't say anything and turned away.

"The servants have no human rights..." Thinking of having to get along with her for more than ten months, Ji Die complained helplessly, returned to the thatched cottage, and continued to practice.

The next day, when Ji Die arrived in the bamboo building, Yun Su had not arrived yet. She came until noon. After he cleaned it, she asked him to clean it again with various reasons of "it's not clean here".

Although he knew that she was deliberately making things difficult, thinking of the scene of her chopping bamboo yesterday, Ji Die silently endured it again.

There was no way, he couldn't beat her.

Fortunately, Yun Su was not here every day. When she was not there, he looked through the bamboo slips in the bamboo building.

After all, as the old saying goes, more skills are better than less, and learning more knowledge will never hurt.

However, the books here are estimated to record hundreds of thousands of spiritual medicines, far exceeding the Sutra Hall.

It will take more than a short time to finish reading.

Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I will read it slowly.

…

"Brother..."

On the fifth peak, on a cliff, Wu Ren looked at the old man holding his nose opposite him with a little helplessness.

This brother really hasn't changed at all. The junior is still beside him, and he doesn't care about his image at all.

Yun Fan stood respectfully beside him, watching his nose and his heart.

"Speaking of which, brother, you should have focused on improving your cultivation over the years. When you didn't have a golden elixir before, you were in the early stage of the golden elixir. Now that you have formed a golden elixir, you are still in the early stage of the golden elixir..." Wu Ren felt his cultivation and comforted him kindly.

The old man snorted coldly and said, "Xiao Wu, do you despise me as your senior brother?"

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

The old man smiled and patted his shoulder, "I am relieved to have you in the Fifth Peak. As for my cultivation, it is not important. Anyway, I have you, my junior brother, right?!"

"..."

Wu Ren could only smile bitterly and talked about another thing,

"The third elder has sent someone to inform me that the boy who broke into the "Guanzhuhai" has been captured by her and made a servant for a year. What do you want to do, senior brother..."

Wu Ren sighed.
