Chapter 10 Debt is uncle
Chapter 10 10. Debt is the uncle
Shock! The well-known cultivation method of cultivating immortals actually has hidden flaws that are not known to the public. What kind of secret is it that makes those who know it red-faced and silent, and secretly study it under the covers at night?
The ark fell into the pit again.
But this time the pit is relatively shallow, and it’s just hair loss. It’s not unacceptable, as long as it’s not seen by others, it doesn’t matter.
In addition to the defect of hair loss, Shuoyue Qi is a very powerful qi training method. After practicing for several days in a row, Fang Zhou's physique has improved a little, and his strength has also increased, but the attributes did not show it. It should be that the enhancement is not enough to a base unit.
Occasionally, when encountering something that he didn't understand in practice, Fang Zhou would **** for it by himself, and if he really couldn't understand it, he would ask Ling Xiaoyue.
Why has to be this way? It's not because Fang Zhou is self-reliant, but if he asks Ling Xiaoyue, this idiot actually wants it! receive! fee!
You heard me right, it costs money to ask her questions.
After living in two worlds, this is the first time Fang Zhou heard that it costs money for apprentices to ask questions from their masters. Not only that, but Ling Xiaoyue actually had to charge Fang Zhou for food, living expenses, money for seeing a doctor, money for buying clothes, etc. Anyway, it was just collecting money under various pretentious names.
Fang Zhou is very suspicious that this woman died of poverty in her previous life, and in this life she fell into the eyes of money just after she was born.
Ling Xiaoyue has plausible words for this: "I'm not your mother as a teacher, why should I support you? Don't you need to spend money on food, medical treatment and clothes?"
Fang Zhou was a little annoyed: "I've already given you one thousand taels of silver as apprenticeship ceremony!"
"That's right!"
Ling Xiaoyue's tone was taken for granted: "Didn't I pass on Shuoyue Qi to you for free, and I will pass on so many exercises to you in the future, so you can make a lot of money."
Fang Zhou spread his hands: "Then we are purely a transactional relationship, not a master-student relationship."
"My stupid apprentice!"
Ling Xiaoyue sneered: "The master-student relationship is essentially an exchange of interests, and it is covered with a layer of emotion as a cloak. Now you can take a thousand taels to look for it and see which sect will accept you. Teach as a teacher. You have the same reasoning, free things are the most expensive, if any sect accepts you for free, it must be coveting some of your things, such as your body, hehe."
Fang Zhou was speechless, and Ling Xiaoyue had a lot of wrong reasons, but she had to admit that her words did have a little truth.
The threshold for cultivating immortals in this world is not low at all. Countless people are waving banknotes but can't find the entrance. Only qualifications and connections are the stepping stones.
It’s a bit like those famous private universities on the earth. You can only enter to study after getting a recommendation letter, and you can only be slaughtered as a fat sheep if you have money.
If you don’t have connections and don’t want money, then you are greedy for your aptitude. The elders of the Xuanji Sect took Fang Zhou as their apprentice because of his aptitude, but they didn’t expect them to even let his body go.
But in any case, this is not the reason why Ling Xiaoyue made various excuses to collect money from him.
Fang Zhou couldn't say but couldn't beat, so he could only choose to give in, and was treated as a fat sheep by Ling Xiaoyue. He silently kept these in his heart, and would definitely settle accounts with this woman when he had the opportunity in the future.
In just a few days, Fang Zhou owed a huge amount of debt, and the creditor was his master.
But after recognizing the situation, Fang Zhou’s heart also settled down. Isn’t it just debts? The debtor is the master. You can go all out. If I pay back a penny in the future, I will take your surname.
…
The boundary of Jingchu is located in the northern part of Jingnan Prefecture, and the best way to go is along the Jingchu River.
After leaving the boundary of Yunshan Mountain, Fang Zhou and Ling Xiaoyue headed north along the Jingchu River. There are many places where you can travel by boat, which saves worry and effort, but Ling Xiaoyue, a dignified cultivator, thinks that the boat fare is expensive, so he insists on taking the boat. He ran dozens of miles of mountain roads, almost knocking him to pieces.
However, through this kind of tempering, Ark's absorption and operation of spiritual energy is getting smoother and smoother. Sitting on horseback, he can use spiritual energy to nourish his body at any time, and he can clearly feel his physique getting stronger little by little.
And the strength has finally increased a little, from 2 points to 3 points.
Fang Zhou didn't know whether Ling Xiaoyue did it on purpose or not, but seeing her heartless appearance, let's take it as unintentional.
Walking all the way north, Ark's horses began to lose weight, and they would be useless if they ran any further, so they had to rest in a place called Qingde City.
Qingde City is smaller than Wucheng, but it is also a large city with a population of 100,000, with towering walls and magnificent gates.
Ark and Ling Xiaoyue flowed into the city with people, and the city was full of tall buildings like clouds, row upon row, the streets were flat and spacious, and pedestrians were bustling with each other, creating a bustling scene.
After Fang Zhou entered the city, he wanted to find a place to stay, have a good meal, and then take a hot bath. During this period of time, he slept in the open air and ate dry food every day. It was very uncomfortable to be sticky.
Ling Xiaoyue looked spotless, as if the dust could not stay on her body.
Seeing Fang Zhou heading towards those bustling restaurants and restaurants, Ling Xiaoyue reached out and grabbed him: "Where are you going?"
"Of course it is to find a place to live."
Fang Zhou was puzzled at first, and then looked at her vigilantly: "You...won't you still sleep on the street when you get to the city?"
When he was on the road, he would sleep in the wild and feed the mosquitoes. After all, he had no conditions. If he went to the city and slept on the street, he would definitely not be able to bear it.
Seeing Fang Zhou's appearance that if you dare to let me sleep on the street, I will sever the master-student relationship with you, Ling Xiaoyue laughed: "Is my teacher the kind of person who makes you sleep on the street?"
"yes!"
The laughter stopped abruptly, and Ling Xiaoyue taught him with a stern face: "We are immortal cultivators, how can we stay in a hotel like ordinary people? That's too shameful."
Fang Zhou showed a mocking smile: "If you sleep on a tree, you won't lose your share, right? Monkeys also sleep on trees."
Ling Xiaoyue picked up the jug and threw it at Fang Zhou, but he dodged it nimbly.
"Follow me, let my teacher teach you, I don't tell ordinary people the secret of immortal cultivators wandering in the world."
Although Ling Xiaoyue made a strong promise, Fang Zhou still didn't believe it, Ling Xiaoyue ignored him, and turned around on his horse and left, Fang Zhou could only keep up.
The two came to the notice wall of Qingde City. This is the place where the government posts official documents to inform the public. Some residence newspapers will also be posted on it, as well as anecdotes and missing persons notices. Of course, you must have money. If you don't have money, you can post small advertisements in the streets and alleys.
Many people would go to this place to watch the excitement when they have nothing to do, mainly to listen to the explanations of those who can read and write. It is as happy as listening to storytelling without spending money.
The notice wall is not big, and there are many people watching the excitement, they are all pushing forward, and a few government servants are maintaining order by the wall. The whole scene is chaotic and orderly, very lively.
What surprised Fang Zhou was that all the people present were women, even the officials who were in the office were also women.
In this case, if Ark dares to go in, he will be overwhelmed by a group of women immediately, and enjoy the treatment of "嫐".
But he didn't dare at all. These women were all big and thick, with fleshy faces. He squeezed in. Who would eat whose tofu was a problem, and he was afraid that some people would get in and no one would get out.
After improving his physique, Fang Zhou’s hearing and eyesight were greatly enhanced, and he could clearly see the content posted on the notice wall while standing on the periphery.
Fang Zhou looked curiously over, there were documents of sea arrest with portraits, there was also a notice of a certain city’s earth dragon turning over, and there were frequent incidents of children getting lost in the border of Jingchu, and human traffickers were rampant, reminding the public to take care of their own children.
At this moment, Ling Xiaoyue suddenly waved her hand, and a post flew out of the notice wall and landed in her hand.
This scene immediately attracted the attention of many people in front of the notice wall, and they all turned their heads.
A face like Ling Xiaoyue can attract attention no matter where she goes in the normal world. Unfortunately, this world is not normal. After these people glanced at her, they all focused on Fang Zhou in the next second.
Fang Zhou felt as if he was being illuminated by a spotlight for an instant, and the dense sight seemed to strip him of all his clothes.
Turning the **** a little bit, it turns out that countless elders are sizing up a beautiful girl with unscrupulous eyes.
"What a handsome little brother!"
"Ass is so up!"
"Touch it for me, I would rather not marry a husband for two years, hey."
All kinds of talking, laughing, and even the sound of swallowing saliva reached Fang Zhou's ears, making goose bumps all over his body.
Although Fang Zhou does not meet the standards of a wealthy family marrying a handsome boy with picturesque features, his appearance is still extremely high. This kind of tall and straight figure is more likely to arouse women's desire to conquer.
Some people have already started to come over, Fang Zhou hurriedly urged Ling Xiaoyue: "Go, go!"
Ark's embarrassment made Ling Xiaoyue overjoyed, but she didn't stay here any longer and took him away.
