Lonely Immortal

After a busy day, Zhang Zhiwen planned to take a break, but before taking a break, he still planned to go to the Immortal Mansion to take a look. He now had two broken spirit stones in his hand. He wanted to see to what extent these two broken spirit stones could cultivate the Solitary Immortal Grass.

Soon, he entered the Immortal Mansion and took out a seed of the Solitary Immortal Grass. He now needed to cultivate another one. He had already eaten the previous one. Speaking of this seed, Zhang Zhiwen still had a few extra. He actually didn't need so many seeds anymore. He could exchange them for some money when he had time. However, he didn't know how much money he could exchange for. Judging from the reaction of the man guarding the city before, this seed was probably not worth much.

But Zhang Zhiwen didn't think much about this matter for the time being. He first wanted to try to see how much a broken spirit stone could make the Solitary Immortal Grass grow. So, he crushed the broken spirit stone and sprinkled it on the soil.

Soon, the Lonely Immortal Grass began to grow. First, it sprouted. This was the first time Zhang Zhiwen saw Lonely Immortal Grass sprout. The small sprouts looked pretty good. Then they gradually grew taller. The small sprouts quickly withered and then grew into a bare pole. This is the signature form of Lonely Immortal Grass. This also made Zhang Zhiwen feel relieved. He was still a little worried that the Lonely Immortal Grass would not grow. After all, it was the first time to use seeds to cultivate Lonely Immortal Grass. He had never tried it before. If it didn't grow, it was not impossible.

But now it seems that everything is fine. This seed can grow Lonely Immortal Grass. At least this seed is alive. If the seeds are cooked or rotten, it is definitely impossible to grow medicinal materials.

As time went by, the Solitary Immortal Grass grew taller, but it stopped growing immediately, and the spiritual energy in the soil had been consumed. Zhang Zhiwen knew that the spiritual energy of this broken spiritual stone had reached its limit. He estimated that it could only make the Solitary Immortal Grass grow by about one-tenth, because it would continue to grow taller, then bloom, and then bear fruit. The spiritual energy consumed in this process would be far more than the current level.

So, to cultivate a Solitary Immortal Fruit, it would take ten broken spiritual stones, which is almost equivalent to a low-grade spiritual stone. This consumption is not small, and if Zhang Zhiwen wants to cultivate a Solitary Immortal Fruit, he needs to work in the Night Fragrance Garden of the Lin Family Immortal Mansion for at least three months.

However, this was similar to what Zhang Zhiwen expected. Before, he cultivated two Lonely Immortal Fruits, and he consumed six pieces of jade with spiritual energy. Those six pieces of jade with spiritual energy were collected by the ten major gangs after decades of hard work. It can be seen that it is still very difficult to cultivate a Lonely Immortal Fruit. However, one Lonely Immortal Fruit can still be refined into about three or four spiritual energy powders. Three or four spiritual energy powders should allow Zhang Zhiwen to improve his cultivation a little bit, but it should not be too much. Improving his cultivation by one-fifth is enough.

So if you simply rely on working to accumulate spirit stones and then cultivate the Solitary Immortal Fruit, it is definitely impossible. If so, Zhang Zhiwen has to carry manure here for more than a year or even two years to improve his cultivation from the third level of Qi Refining to the fourth level of Qi Refining. But the evil brother of Sun Yuanshan outside the city, the man in white, is at the sixth level of Qi Refining. If he simply relies on this to improve his cultivation, he will have to work for at least seven or eight years, or even more, because the later the cultivation, the harder it is to improve, and the medicinal power of the spirit powder will also decrease as Zhang Zhiwen's cultivation improves.

Zhang Zhiwen doesn't want to do dirty work in this place for ten or eight years. Although he is willing to endure hardships, it doesn't mean that he has a problem with his brain. He must exchange the spirit powder for money, and the spirit powder should be able to sell at least one or two low-grade spirit stones, right?

Although Zhang Zhiwen didn't know the price of the Spiritual Energy Powder, he knew it by thinking about it. The price of the Solitary Immortal Fruit should not be cheap. If the refining loss is added up, the Spiritual Energy Powder can't even sell for one low-grade spirit stone. Who would refine the Spiritual Energy Powder? No one would do such a stupid thing because they can't even get back the cost.

However, this matter can't be rushed. He can't even get enough broken spirit stones to cultivate a Solitary Immortal Fruit. After cultivating a Solitary Immortal Fruit, he will go outside to see what the market is like.

In this way, he can sit in meditation and practice with peace of mind. Although the spiritual power obtained from meditation and practice is very little, it is still better than nothing. It is always good to accumulate a little and it doesn't cost anything. It's just spending some time at night, which makes people more energetic than sleeping, and it can also restore the body's strength, so it is easier to work the next day.

Then, day after day, ten days passed quickly, and Zhang Zhiwen worked in Yexiang Garden with peace of mind. During this period, he went to see Mr. Fang, and he was relieved that Mr. Fang and his men were fine. Mr. Fang was also relieved to see that Zhang Zhiwen stayed in Lin's Immortal Mansion with peace of mind.

Although the work of carrying manure is a little dirty and tiring, it is not dangerous. The work is repeated every day, and time passes quickly.

On this day, Zhang Zhiwen came to Yexiang Garden early as usual, but every time, he was not the first one to arrive here, and of course, he was not the last one to leave. There were many people who arrived earlier than him, mainly because their bodies were not as strong as Zhang Zhiwen. After working for a day, Zhang Zhiwen could recover well as long as he practiced the Changsheng Sutra when he went back, and he would be full of energy the next day. But other people did not have this ability. After working for a day, they were exhausted and would definitely feel a little weak the next day, so they would not be so efficient at work. Every day they had to carry a hundred loads of animal dung, so they had to get up early and work late.

Zhang Zhiwen saw all this, and it was not uncommon for him to even see these casual cultivators being severely beaten by the stewards, but he said nothing because the world is so cruel, and casual cultivators cannot go back to their hometown. Once they go back, they will inevitably... Being hunted by the country's casual cultivator families, after all, the two sides are competitors. The entire country only has so many resources for cultivating immortals, and no one wants to share them with others.

As for Feixian City, there are low-level casual cultivators everywhere, and there are a lot of people fighting to do the same errand. It would be great if they can find just one errand. How dare they have any complaints? If you don't do it, you have no choice but to get out of Feixian City. This is not a kind hall and does not support idlers. If these low-level casual cultivators go out, they will naturally become the targets of being robbed and killed. There is even more chaos outside. It's a complete mess, because there are no rules outside. Whoever is strong can kill people and seize treasures at will. This is the same as when Zhang Zhiwen stayed in the mountains. When did the bandits ever reason with him? They still eat people alive, but at least the casual cultivators are not that crazy.

In addition to these, there is another very important reason. As long as a person is afraid that his soul will be scattered after death, can he turn back after embarking on the path of no return in the Immortal Family? They are trying every means to improve their cultivation. Otherwise, once the longevity is exhausted and they are no longer reincarnated, how many casual cultivators are willing to accept the consequences?

Therefore, even though there are turd pickers here, the casual cultivators still dare not complain. If they are beaten, they will swallow their anger. If they cannot finish their work, they can only be punished. Even in order to finish their work, they work desperately, Therefore, during the ten days that Zhang Zhiwen stayed here, he hardly saw any casual cultivators gathering together to gossip, because they had no time and mood. They all hoped to work more, save more money, and come back later. There are other opportunities.

Today is the same as in the past. People in the casual cultivator are working hard, but the person in charge suddenly comes. This guy squats in that room every day and basically doesn't come out. He either sleeps or doesn't know how to eat. What a thing, my little life was quite pleasant.

"Stop it now and come here!"

When the steward yelled, the casual cultivators who were picking up dung stopped one after another, and then looked at each other in confusion. Obviously, no one knew what the steward was calling them for today, but the steward all spoke up. They had no choice but to gather together, and Zhang Zhiwen naturally followed them.

Soon, people gathered, about a hundred people. If we say that there are indeed many spiritual beasts in Lin's Immortal Mansion, so many people are needed to deal with the animal excrement every day.

However, almost no one among the hundreds of people said a word. Most of them lowered their heads slightly, their eyes looking at the person in charge. There was a trace of resentment, a trace of fear, and a trace of numbness in their eyes.

When Zhang Zhiwen saw them like this, he didn't say anything and lowered his head slightly, but he knew very well that among the people staying here, which one had not experienced glory in his hometown? It's just that in order to improve his cultivation, he has embarked on the road of no return step by step. Now, after working here for a long time, people have become a little insensitive, and everyone is half-dead with anger. In addition, there is no need to worry about this world. The person in charge in front of me was full of resentment.

It's just that these people don't dare to show this kind of resentment, but once they improve their cultivation, these people must also be ruthless people. Just look at the four major families in Feixian City and you will know. Didn't they also grow up from low-level monks? Improved? What are their methods? Isn't it also about squeezing and bullying low-level casual cultivators to death?

At this time, everyone in charge came. He pretended to cough, and seemed to be quite dignified. Then he shook his head and said: "Well, listen, I have something to tell you from above. It's said that our immortal The mansion does not support idle people, and now all of you are just lazing around and wasting the resources of the immortal mansion. Therefore, the immortal mansion plans to replace them with those who are more diligent. "

As soon as the manager's words came out, the casual cultivators were in an uproar. This was obviously not a good thing. They had been working here for so long, so it was impossible not to understand the meaning of these words, which was to replace them with a group of young people. The strong ones came in to work, replacing some of the old, weak, sick and disabled among them.

Sure enough, after the steward said this, he raised his eyebrows and pointed at the people in the crowd and shouted: "Cao Tian, ​​Zhang Li, Wang Tie... you old guys, all stand up for me!"

These people who were called out were very reluctant and found it difficult to accept this. It took them a long time to stand up, but their faces were very ugly. However, the others who were not called out all breathed a sigh of relief. , but they looked at the named people with a strange look in their eyes. It was not sympathy, but more compassion, because sooner or later they would be replaced like these people.

At this time, the manager suddenly looked in the direction of Zhang Zhiwen, then stretched out his hand and shouted: "By the way, you, you... you guys, come out too!"
