Quick Wear: True and False Life

This time, Song Nan wanted to collect some intelligent animals, so when she asked the little monkey, she used her spiritual sense to communicate with it intentionally. She saw that the little monkey hesitated for a while after hearing her questions.

"Can I take my family with me?" The little monkey was reluctant to leave his family and the water of Ling River. He thought for a long time and squeaked to express his meaning.

"Of course." Song Nan thought that after these monkeys went in, they could take care of the fruit trees to prevent the fruits from falling to the ground and being wasted. With these intelligent monkeys, things would be much easier.

"Then I will go find my parents and grandfather and tell them the good news." As soon as the little monkey understood what Song Nan meant, he chirped happily on the branch.

"Wait for me at the foot of the mountain later, okay?" Seeing that she had successfully communicated with the little monkey, she smiled and pointed to the foot of the mountain where the main palace was.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak" the little monkey cried out when he was happy. After hearing what Song Nan meant, he ran towards the entrance of his own cave.

Song Nan watched it run away, shook her head in amusement and continued forward. She wanted to see how the other intelligent animals were doing.

The first bird she encountered was the white peacock. It was very beautiful and its figure was quite conspicuous in the green forest.

"Hello, can we talk?" As soon as Song Nan met the white peacock, he communicated with him telepathically.

"Are you the human who lived on the mountain over there?" The white peacock was obviously much smarter than the little monkey, and its thoughts were much more mature. If the little monkey's IQ was between two or three years old, then its IQ must be around ten years old.

"Yes, how long have you been here? Are there many intelligent animals in this rainforest?"

"I have been in this forest for nine years. Apart from my own people, there are probably a dozen others who can communicate with me." The white peacock counted the others who could talk to it in his mind and made a rough estimate.

"I would like to recruit her as my disciple. I wonder if Miss Peacock can help me make the connection." Song Nan saw that this white peacock was quite sociable, so she didn't have to look for her in the woods and could just ask for her help.

"Is there any benefit?"

"Of course, let's try it." Seeing the peacock mentioning the benefits, she made up her mind and picked some leaves to fill with spiritual river water for it.

"Hmm, it's delicious! I want more." After the white peacock finished drinking it, he felt a surge of energy flowing throughout his body, making him feel warm and comfortable, so he shouted.

"For those who are willing to come to my sect, the water from the Linghe River alone is enough. There is also the magic cultivation technique that can be used. What do you think?" After seeing that it was interested, Song Nan offered some chips to attract it.

"Okay! I'll go find those friends for you right now, but don't lie." The White Peacock emphasized this after he finished speaking.

"Gather at the foot of the main peak later. I'll wait for you there. Now I'm leaving." Seeing that the communication was successful and that the matter was almost done, Song Nan left.

"Okay! Hey! Why are you walking so fast? Give me some more water from the Ling River!" The white peacock sighed when he saw that the human left after he was distracted for a moment.

The white peacock was quite reliable. At noon, Song Nan waited for the scene of this group of intelligent animals gathering together and making noise.

There were more than twenty people in total, including the little monkey family. She asked everyone to stop making noise and line up to test their qualifications for cultivation.

"During the test later, those who are qualified will stand under the trees, and those who are not qualified will stand under the rock caves. In order to be easily recognized, please give yourselves names, which will be used for registration." Song Nan felt that it would be difficult to remember so many names without a name, so he reminded everyone to give themselves a name.

Everyone listened to Song Nan's suggestion. For a moment, the calls of various animals overlapped and everyone talked a lot. They were all worried about naming. Finally, they discussed and decided to let Song Nan give each of them a name. They were not picky, as long as there was one, it would be fine.

"We can't take this human out by ourselves, so just pick one at random." Finally, the white peacock stood up, walked up to Song Nan and shouted at her to express his meaning.

"Okay! If you have no objection, we can name it when we do the test." Song Nan was also helpless. Naming was really not her strong point, but she still agreed. After all, animals don't have the same rules as humans.

"In that case, let's get started! Let's start with you, the white peacock. Step forward and place your feet on the spirit-testing stone."

"Is that so?" The White Peacock followed her instructions and stepped his claws on the spirit stone.

Then, before it finished speaking, the spirit stone emitted a strong aqua-blue light. This aptitude is good! It was quite unexpected for Song Nan.

"Kong Bai, nine years old, single-line ice spiritual root, excellent aptitude, stand under the tree and wait for a while." Song Nan looked at the white peacock, sighing that such a good aptitude was born here. Fortunately, it met him, otherwise it would be wasted.

Kong Bai listened to the humans praising his good qualifications, and stood under the tree waiting, then walked towards the tree with his head held high and proudly.

"Next one," Song Nan called out after registering Kong Bai's information.

The leader wolf followed closely and raised its front paws to press the spirit stone. Then a light grey beam appeared.

"Wolf Gray, four years old, single-line fog spirit root, average aptitude, next."

"Xiong Zong, seven years old, three spiritual roots of gold, wood and fire, low aptitude, next one."

"Mangyin, nine years old, single-line thunder spirit root, excellent aptitude, next."

"Hou Xiao, five years old, three spiritual roots of earth, wood and fire, low aptitude, next."

………………

"Cang Su, two years old, dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, excellent aptitude, next one"

"Cang Mo, two years old, no spiritual roots."

"Okay, everyone stand in place. Those of you without spiritual roots, please step forward. Don't be discouraged. People can cultivate their bodies, souls, or find other ways to achieve success. I think you can do it too. Those who want to try, please stand over here." After Song Nan finished the test, he clicked on the thirteen people who had spiritual roots, which accounted for half of the total, which was far beyond expectations. Now he would screen them for the second time.

Soon, some people came over. The first one to come over was Lun Mo, followed by the three elders of the little monkey, and finally a sika deer named Lu Sen.

"Now for the remaining nine, here are the spirit beast pills. They are given to you. You can leave after you take them." Song Nan was very grateful for their participation. Although they were not recruited into the sect, they might get along for a long time in the future, so he gave each of them ten pills.

After sending these nine away, Song Nan took the selected eighteen back to Song Xi Pavilion with a wave of his sleeves, and then handed them over to Ling Xi, asking her to cleanse the marrow and soul of these disciples according to the situation, and select suitable demon cultivation functions for them to practice.

This busy schedule lasted until three days later, when the people recruited by Lingxi arrived one after another, and the three were freed up. Now only alchemy and printing were left and no one could replace them for the time being. Song An's schedule was fully scheduled because his teacher had arrived, and he had no time to travel around the three places of the mountain palace and Qilin Mansion.

"Lingxi, Jun Jinghao's scattered light spots are increasing every day, but it's not okay for them to just float around in the main palace. Is there any way to gather them into shape?" Song Nan thought about it for a few days, but couldn't figure it out, so he asked Lingxi if there was any precedent in this regard.

"Sister, why worry? There is a contract between you two. Your body can naturally bear and tolerate these debris." After listening to Song Nan's worries, Lingxi was speechless as to why she didn't come to her senses and even forgot the ready-made use of the contract.

"Is that so? Then why don't they enter on their own initiative?" Song Nan asked puzzledly. She still didn't understand.
