There is no future for menial disciples? I draw talismans to achieve immortality

In the afternoon, we had a spiritual meal.

After Xu Changshou's spiritual energy recovered a little, Yang Bailao took him to Li Daitu's Taoist temple.

"Disciple Yang Bailao, I pay my respects to Uncle Master Li."

"Disciple Xu Changshou pays homage to Uncle Li."

"What's the matter with you two?" Li Daitu frowned slightly.

Yang Bailao said respectfully, "Uncle Li, Junior Brother Xu has already learned how to draw talismans, so I brought him here to see you."

Li Daotu pinched his fingers and said, "Four months... Yeah, not bad."

"Xu Changshou."

"The disciple is here."

"From now on, you will be responsible for drawing Wind-Moving Talismans. Draw five every day. The first and fifteenth days of the lunar month are days off. You will be required to hand in 140 Wind-Moving Talismans every month. Your monthly salary is one spirit stone.

If the task is not completed on time, the penalty will be double the monthly salary."

hiss~

After hearing what Li Daitu said, Xu Changshou couldn't help but gasp.

I didn't expect the penalty for failing to complete the task to be so severe.

The penalty is double the monthly salary, which means that if he fails to complete the task, not only will he not receive the monthly salary, but he will also be fined two spirit stones.

No wonder Yang Bailao and the menial disciples of Lvmo Peak worked so hard to draw talismans.

You have to risk your life.

You can't survive without playing for your life.

"By the way, these two bottles of Qi-boosting pills are given to you. Draw the talisman well."

Li Daitu waved his sleeves and two jade bottles flew over.

"Thank you, Uncle Li, for the reward."

Xu Changshou accepted the jade bottle with gratitude.

Qi-replenishing pills are good things. For a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage, one pill can restore all lost spiritual energy.

A bottle of Qi Replenishing Pills contains ten pills and costs thirty Broken Spirit Stones, which is much cheaper than Qi Gathering Pills.

This thing is hard currency whether it is in Green Ink Peak or in other mountains.

Any disciple who does menial tasks needs Qi-replenishing pills.

The reason why Li Datu gave Xu Changshou the task was because he felt that Xu Changshou was a newcomer and was afraid that he did not have spirit stones to buy Qi-replenishing pills, which would delay the drawing of talismans.

Xu Changshou secretly calculated in his mind.

If he didn't have the Blood Jade Talisman, he could only draw five talismans a day. While drawing the talismans, he had to use at least one Qi-replenishing pill every day.

Based on the calculation of thirty Qi-replenishing pills per month, he has to spend ninety Broken Spirit Stones every month to buy Qi-replenishing pills.

These ninety pieces of broken spirit stones are equivalent to losses.

So, in other words, the sect gives a monthly salary of one spirit stone, but in reality, one only gets ten broken spirit stones.

What can you do with ten pieces of broken spirit stones? If you use them for cultivation, you can only buy one Qi Gathering Pill.

Thinking of this, Xu Changshou couldn't help but feel frightened.

Without the Blood Jade Talisman, his path to becoming an immortal would definitely be a hundred times more difficult.

It is incredible that Yang Bailao and others could survive in such an environment.

"Go!"

"Goodbye, Uncle Li."

The two men bowed and then left Li Daotu's dojo respectfully.

"Brother Yang, it's just as you said. Uncle Li really asked me to draw the Wind Walking Talisman."

Yang Bailao smiled and said, "Of course, we have few menial disciples with wind-attributed spiritual roots in Green Ink Peak, and few who can draw wind talismans, so wind talismans are always in short supply.

You happen to have the wind attribute, so naturally you can draw wind talismans.

"By the way, Junior Brother, can you handle drawing five Wind-Speed ​​Talismans every day?"

Xu Changshou patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Senior Brother Yang, I can do it."

Yang Bailao said solemnly, "Junior Brother Xu, remember, the first month is the most difficult. No matter what, you must complete the mission, otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Ok!"

Xu Changshou nodded, then said, "Brother Yang, I'm out of jute paper. Can you take me to the paper room to get some? I've never been to the paper room, so I don't know where it is."

"That's easy. I don't have much paper left. Come on, I'll take you there."

Yang Bailao took Xu Changshou and rushed in one direction.

On the way, Xu Changshou asked, "Brother Yang, this is my first time taking on a mission. What if I waste too much jute paper? Will there be any problems?"

Yang Bailao smiled and said, "Junior Brother Xu, don't worry. The sect next door doesn't restrict the use of jute paper. Even if you use a thousand sheets of jute paper a month, no one will ask. Jute paper is not worth much."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Xu Changshou nodded.

Since jute paper is freely available, it would be no problem for him to draw more talismans and sell them for money.

Soon, Yang Bailao brought Xu Changshou to a hall. Xu Changshou took a look inside the hall and saw that the three halls were full of jute paper.

"Is Senior Brother Zhong here?"

There was no one in the hall, and Yang Bailao raised his voice and shouted.

"Cough cough!"

There was a cough coming from the talisman room next door.

"Senior Brother Zhong is next door, let's go!"

Yang Bailao brought Xu Changshou to the next room, where an old man with white hair and beard was drawing talismans.

Xu Changshou looked at the old man, who was probably in his seventies, with dirty clothes and unkempt appearance.

This is probably the tradition of Green Ink Peak. From my impression, none of the disciples of Green Ink Peak seem to care much about their image.

"Senior Brother Zhong, let us get some paper." Yang Bailao said respectfully.

The old man said without turning his head: "The paper is next door, go get it yourself, and then report to me when you have it."

"Yes!"

Yang Bailao's face lit up with joy, and he quickly pulled Xu Changshou to the hall where the paper was placed.

When they arrived at the main hall, Yang Bailao waved his hand and secretly put three or four thousand sheets of jute paper into the storage bag, and then took a thousand sheets of jute paper in his hand.

"Brother Yang, what are you doing..."

Xu Changshou was somewhat curious about Yang Bailao's actions.

Yang Bailao smiled and said, "When Senior Brother Zhong is not busy, he usually takes the papers. He takes a thousand sheets at a time and reports a thousand sheets. If he takes it himself, he can take a little more and also report a thousand sheets."

"That's it!"

Xu Changshou understood immediately and followed Yang Bailao's example by taking three or four thousand more tickets.

After getting the talisman paper, the two went to the next room again. At this time, the old man was almost done drawing the talisman.

The two of them didn't disturb him and just watched from the side.

The talisman drawn by the old man was of earth attribute, and Xu Changshou guessed that it should be an earth shield talisman.

Soon, the old man finished drawing the talisman and then looked at the two of them: "This junior brother looks unfamiliar, could he be the new disciple who just joined this year?"

"It's me, my younger brother." Xu Changshou bowed.

Yang Bailao smiled and said, "Senior Brother Zhong, let me introduce you to Junior Brother Xu Changshou. Junior Brother Xu, this is Zhong Xiuping, Senior Brother Zhong."

Xu Changshou bowed again: "Greetings, Senior Brother Zhong."

"Hello, Junior Brother Xu."

Zhong Xiuping nodded slightly, then took out a pen and paper and reported to the two of them.

Simply record it and that's it.

Yang Bailao suddenly said, "By the way, Senior Brother Zhong, I heard that you will soon be retiring. Please let me know when you will be retiring. Junior Brother Xu and I will attend your retirement ceremony on time."

Zhong Xiuping smiled when he heard this: "Almost there, only three months left."

"So quickly, congratulations to Senior Brother Zhong for escaping from the sea of ​​suffering."

Yang Bailao was filled with envy, and then he sighed, "When I first entered Green Ink Peak, I learned to draw talismans from Senior Brother Zhong. It's been almost forty years now, and Senior Brother Zhong is about to retire. It's a pity that I still have to endure another fifty years."
