Then, Zhang Chenggu looked at Su Yun and said, "Very well, I'm not the kind of person who would take things by force. I can entrust the task of looking after the medicine garden to you."

"You'll contribute at least seventy points daily, which will be directly distributed by the elders in the herb garden. Sometimes there will be extra rewards. If you exchange this job for your body-refining technique, you won't lose out."

Upon hearing this, Su Yun's eyes lit up; she hadn't expected to actually win it.

However, he scoffed at Zhang Chenggu's words.

A job only earns you a thousand contribution points, is that considered not losing out?

Although he didn't actually lose out and instead made a fortune, he still disliked the two of them.

Although he was disdainful in his heart, he did not show it on the surface, but nodded and said, "In that case, I can hand over the Body Refining Technique without losing too much."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xuan couldn't help but grin.

I got a body-refining technique without spending a single contribution point. How wonderful!

Wang Xuan chuckled and said, "In that case, go back and retrieve the cultivation manual. We'll be waiting for you here."

"it is good."

Su Yun returned to his residence, retrieved the image stone inscribed with the Python Elephant Technique, and handed it to Wang Xuan.

"Okay, okay, Su Yun, thank you very much this time."

Wang Xuan smiled broadly and said thank you, but his tone was more of a disdainful mockery.

Su Yun wasn't angry. After all, he was the one who profited the most by exchanging a trashy cultivation technique for an easier job that earned him more contribution points.

Zhang Chenggu waved his hand and said, "Alright, everyone get back to work. Su Yun, go report to the herb garden."

Within the Qingyun Sect, there are several medicinal gardens, where valuable and precious herbs are grown. These gardens are managed by formal disciples and even elders.

The lowest-grade medicinal herb gardens were managed by the handyman disciples.

Su Yun had passed by the herb garden more than once before, so he knew its location and arrived there quickly.

This medicinal herb garden is situated on a flat area, covering only a few acres.

Through the outermost fence of the herb garden, Su Yun could see several houses inside.

Without hesitation, he stepped inside.

As soon as I entered the herb garden, I felt that the air was fresher, giving me a refreshing feeling.

Su Yun couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.

"Hey! That kid!"

Just then, a cold shout came from ahead.

Su Yun immediately turned her head to look.

From a house a few dozen meters to the east, an elderly man with white hair and beard emerged. His face was full of wrinkles, and his skin was dry, making him look quite old.

His old eyes were staring at Su Yun.

This person is the head of the herb garden and holds the title of Junior Elder bestowed by the sect. He's rather special.

Su Yun didn't dare to delay and immediately went up to them.

"Elder Sun."

Su Yun spoke respectfully.

The person in front of me is named Sun Wuyan. He is at the fourth level of Body Refinement and lives in the medicine garden.

Although his cultivation level was only one level higher than Zhang Chenggu's, the other party possessed the ability to refine pills.

This is precisely why he can continue to live in the herb garden.

The pills he refined were supplied to the sect, enough for many disciples to use, which helped him maintain his position. Even some formal disciples had to show him some respect when they saw him.

"Are you the new handyman? Why are you so late? You've wasted so much of my time!"

Sun Wuyan glared at Su Yun, his face full of displeasure.

Su Yun said, "I apologize, Elder Sun. I was delayed by some matters. This disciple, Su Yun, came to look after the medicine garden."

Sun Wuyan said somewhat impatiently, "Alright, stop talking nonsense and hurry up and come with me."

With that, he turned and went into the house.

Su Yun muttered to himself, "This Sun Wuyan has quite a temper."

They followed the other person into the room.

Instantly, a rich fragrance of cinnamon wafted over.

Su Yun's eyes lit up. The room was filled with a lot of equipment for alchemy, but there was no alchemy furnace, so it was not an alchemy room.

Sun Wuyan then took out a thick book from the drawer, stared at Su Yun, and shouted, "Listen carefully to what I'm about to say, kid. These are the rules of the herb garden."

Su Yun replied, "Please speak, Elder."

Sun Wuyan continued, "First, guarding the herb garden and preventing others from stealing herbs is secondary, because not many disciples have the guts to do so!"

"The most important thing is that you need to water and fertilize the planted medicine every day, on time and in the correct amount!"

Hearing this, Su Yun raised an eyebrow. What's so difficult about that?

Seemingly sensing Su Yun's thoughts, Sun Wuyan continued, "Don't think that planting herbs is the same as planting flowers and grass. Every kind of spiritual herb has different needs. For example, some need watering, while others can only be fertilized with medicinal liquid extracted from other herbs!"

"Some of them can only be cultivated with strong liquor; not a drop more or less will do!"

Hearing this, Su Yun was speechless, not expecting that this job had so many rules.

It seems that my body will feel lighter in the future, but it will take a lot of mental effort.

"Here are the properties of all the medicinal herbs, as well as the methods for planting and watering them. Look carefully!"

Sun Wuyan handed the book in his hand to Su Yun.

Su Yun flipped through the pages; each page contained descriptions of the various characteristics, cultivation methods, medicinal properties, and so on of a spiritual herb.

Sun Wuyan continued, "I've already fertilized all the herbs in the garden once. You have a few hours to look at them; that's enough time to look at them several times!"

"At that time, fertilize the different spiritual herbs according to the requirements above!"

"Look carefully, or you'll kill the elixir, and you'll be held responsible!"

Su Yun took a deep breath and said, "This disciple understands."

After Sun Wu finished speaking, he picked up some tools from the side and said, "I'm going to refine some pills now. Don't bother me unless it's something important!"

"clear."

After Sun Wu finished speaking, he left the room and went to a larger house to the west, slamming the door shut.

Su Yun withdrew her gaze.

Now, he was all alone in the entire herb garden.

Su Yun began to peruse the annotations on the spiritual herbs in his hand.

Despite the thick book, the actual number of herbs planted in the garden was not that many. Sun Wuyan had marked all the herbs that were in the garden, so there weren't that many.

Now he only needs to get a general idea and know which categories there are. When the time comes, he just needs to cultivate them according to the methods described there.

After reading it once, Su Yun put down the book and went outside.

He arrived at the area where spiritual herbs were planted, staring at the various herbs in front of him and examining them closely.

Closest to him was a spiritual herb with blue roots and stems, bearing several flowers that looked quite alluring.

"This is the Three Blue Flower, a low-grade spiritual herb. Watering it with water can be used to refine Qi-restoring pills..."

Looking up at the emerald green spiritual herb on the other side, he muttered to himself, "This is the Netherworld Purple Thorn, a low-grade spiritual herb. If watered, it can be used to refine the Exploding Yuan Pill..."

"This is the stem of a wild celery plant, a low-grade spiritual herb, used..."

Su Yun glanced around and spoke unconsciously.

The next moment, he suddenly came to his senses, his whole body trembled, and his eyes showed surprise.

He only glanced at the annotations once, yet he knew all about these medicinal herbs perfectly!
