Chapter 50 Absolutely Impossible! (+3) "Speaking of which, Brother Liu, have you received another mission to dig a well? I really envy your ability to find water veins." The monk named Liu Er waved his hands repeatedly: "Except that it's easier to take on missions, there's nothing good about it. Isn't it tiring? This time, an outer disciple of the Piaoxue Sect asked me to go back and dig a well for her brother and sister-in-law. It's winter, and if the reward wasn't enough, I wouldn't bother to make this trip." "Alas, these sect disciples are like this. They can't let go of their families at home, but they don't like to go to the mortal world to build things. In the end, they can only pay a high price to hire people to go." "It's good enough that you are willing to spend spirit stones. But there are those who are so heartless that they forget their parents and the elders and fellow villagers when they set foot on the path of cultivating immortals. In my opinion, cultivating immortals is just in vain!" "Haha! Those chosen ones are different from us, the mundane cultivators. Some of them even practice the Way of Mercilessness!" "That's true. If they don't mind the dirt and tiredness, how can we, the little cultivators, survive?" "Speaking of which, I heard from my sister-in-law next door that the Wanjian Sect has developed a new mining method. After it is implemented in a few years, there will be no need for so many miners. I heard that her brothers from her mother's family are very worried and don't know how to make a living in the future." The younger sister-in-law was married into the Wanjian Sect. She had many brothers from her mother's side, most of whom made a living by mining in the Wanjian Sect's mines. Because she was beautiful, she was also very famous in the market town, and many people present knew her. After hearing Liu Niangzi talk about this, someone asked, "What new mining method? No matter how much it is improved, people still need to go into the mine, right? How can we not need miners anymore?"
Wei Wenxin didn't expect that she would hear gossip about herself whenever she went out. She was very glad that in order to reduce trouble, she deliberately performed a mind-confusing technique when entering the market town, so that ordinary low-level cultivators would not be able to remember her appearance at all. "You don't know this, right? The news has already spread. It was the eldest sister of the Wanjian Sect who did it. It is said that she can empty a large spiritual stone mine in just a few months!" "What? A few months? One person? Digging out a large spiritual stone mine?! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" After hearing such shocking news, everyone exclaimed in surprise, saying it was impossible! Among them, Wei's tone was the most exaggerated. "There used to be a mid-level spirit stone mine near my home. It was mined from my grandfather's generation until my nephew was born. There were more than 2,000 miners in the mine all year round. Think about it, how is it possible? One person! For several months! And it's a large spirit stone mine? Absolutely impossible!" "That's nothing. For our senior sister, nothing is impossible! And this is true. The Wanjian Sect and the Nanhai Sect discovered the spiritual stone mine at the same time. The Nanhai Sect was defeated and asked the Wanfa Sect for help. In the end, it was decided that each side would get what they dug based on their own abilities, and the other side was not allowed to raise any objections." The female cultivator sitting on the far right in the back row was very petite. She had not spoken a word before, but now she held her head high and began to talk about the inside information she knew. Unexpectedly, there was a disciple from Wanjian City here. Wei Wenxin hurriedly checked the accessories on his body and was relieved to see that the ones he usually used had been replaced. However, everyone's focus was a bit off. "Your family is just a wine-making business in the suburbs of Wanjian City, and no one in your family has joined the Wanjian Sect. How can you have the nerve to call someone Senior Sister?" "Humph! That's our senior sister!" "Your senior sister is so powerful, why do you have to come to our Piaoxue Sect to make a living? Humph!" "Besides, because of your senior sister, many of you will be unemployed. Then you might all come to our Piaoxue Sect to steal our jobs! It's so annoying!" The petite female cultivator didn't dare to say anything more. Many of my relatives and friends at home are worried about this! They are all acquaintances, and it is impossible for them to really fight over a few casual chats. Besides, the back of this spiritual bird is only the size of a palm. Seeing that she had shut up, the others didn't care and continued chatting. "After coming up with something like this, Wei Wenxin will probably never dare to go out again in her life. Otherwise, other sects will definitely put a sack around her and take her back to mine for their own clan."
Some people chuckled, thinking themselves clever, and made firm inferences. "Ha, you don't know this?" The petite female cultivator jumped out again, proudly showing off the inside information she knew: "The spiritual stone mine in Tukong Mountain was dug out right under the nose of the Nanhai Sect. Do you think the Nanhai Sect was not tempted?" "Oh? Is there something else going on here? Please don't keep me in suspense, and tell me quickly!" News doesn't spread that fast among ordinary cultivators. Plus, the two places are quite far away from each other. So even more than half a year has passed since the Nanhai Sect came to their doorstep, many people in the Piaoxue Sect still don't know about it. "I wasn't there at the time, but I heard it from my mother. She said that when the senior sister brought the spirit stone mine and the disciples back to the sect, she kidnapped the son of the Nanhai Sect's chief elder, Yun Jingyi, as a talisman. The Nanhai Sect immediately came to our house to demand an explanation. The two sides fought fiercely at the time. It was so exciting that the entire Wanjian City was deserted, and the mountain outside the mountain gate was almost trampled bare!" "Tsk, how dare you come to my house when you are not as strong as them! I don't understand, I really don't understand!" "Hey, if you use your brain you can figure it out! Do you think that Yun Jingyi can be captured by anyone? If the Yunhai and the other families are not more aggressive, then anyone can kidnap him in the future, right?" The gray-robed guy on the upper floor was coughing so hard that his lungs were about to burst. Tu Liuniang threw a water bag at him and said, "If you're thirsty, just drink some water. Why are you making so many noises? What does the Hai family and the Yun family's affairs have to do with your Shui family?" The Flying Bird Station of Piaoxue Sect is managed by the Shui family of the Nanhai faction. The Shui family and the Yunhai family have been in a competitive relationship for many years, but when they are away from home, they are still a sect after all, and they still have to maintain their reputation. But everyone was talking so enthusiastically that who would care about him? After being rebuked, he didn't dare to continue to be annoying, but just listened silently with his ears perked up. Everyone laughed, and couldn't help but ask the petite female cultivator: "And then?" "Then the Nanhai Sect took advantage of this to stir up trouble and wanted our senior sister to marry that Yun guy. Not only did they covet the mining secrets, they also coveted our senior sister. Bah! Why don't they take a piss and look at themselves!" The petite female cultivator spoke purely from the perspective of the Wanjian Sect. After all, she was from Wanjian City and particularly admired Wei Wenxin. The others didn't want to listen to her nonsense and continued to urge her to tell them what happened that day. Too many people knew about this, so the female cultivator didn't hide anything and told everything. After hearing the words "leading the dead peak" and the straightforward ten-hit kills at the same level, all of which were like "cutting melons and vegetables", Wei Wenxin couldn't help but also started to cough dryly. Wei Wenxin didn't expect that while riding a spiritual bird he would meet others and start talking about himself. He felt a little embarrassed for some reason. "Hey, I really envy your senior sister. She has the strength to dare to play like this!" "You have to be very strong!" "It's fine for us to just listen, but we still have to be careful with what we say and do on a daily basis. If someone else dared to tie up Yun Jingyi, they would have been chopped into meat sauce long ago!" "That's true." "Speaking of which, the female cultivators in the Nanhai Sect are really pitiful. They are cultivating immortals, but they are always thinking about dual cultivation and having children. I once heard that when a female cultivator got married, her mother-in-law for more than ten generations was still alive. Those days are really scary to think about!" The grey-robed fellow couldn't help himself, "You people, if you don't understand our customs, don't talk nonsense. We don't do apprenticeship. If we don't have more children, how can the family be passed down? If any male cultivator can have children, I want to have one with my wife! Twice as many children in the family means twice as much hope, okay?! Every wife is the ancestor. If she gets pregnant, they want to support her and don't have to work. But we male cultivators can't rest all year round. No matter how hard or tired we are, we have to persevere. What's so pitiful about this?" That is indeed the truth, but it is so funny to say it! It was indeed not a good idea to discuss these things in front of the people from the South Sea faction. After everyone laughed for a while, they simply put the matter aside and talked about things in the mortal world again. "If you ask me, the most difficult infrastructure task in the mortal world is tunnel drilling. Many people don't know the techniques involved. When they drill in from one side, they often come out from the other side far more wrong than expected!" "It is said that a few years ago there was an inner sect disciple of Piaoxue Sect who seemed to be very arrogant and looked down upon others. As a result, he dug a tunnel. The exit should have been in Fan Country, but he dug it to Qi Country. “Although the two countries are neighbors, they have never gotten along. After all this, they still have the nerve to force Fan to issue a certificate of mission completion. The king of Fan has always been tough and naturally refused.
"Qiguo got an advantage, and the king almost smiled crookedly, but the disciple asked the king of Qiguo to sign the mission completion certificate, and he naturally refused. After all, whoever signs it has to pay the reward. "The inner disciples naturally didn't want to work for nothing, so the three parties started arguing. "In the end, the case was brought before Taoist Master Piaoxue, and it was only after Taoist Master personally intervened that the matter was settled. "If you have time to go to Yinfengjian, you can see the tunnel standing on the bridge. It has one entrance and two exits, and the middle is like a tree branch, splitting the road in the belly of the mountain. Outsiders can easily go the wrong way, and then they can't turn back halfway. I heard that there is a clamor to widen the tunnel and make it a two-way street recently! I don't know if it will be possible." Disciples of powerful forces hate infrastructure tasks, but they are something that lower-level cultivators come into contact with all year round. They usually like to talk about these topics very much. Now this spiritual bird flight goes directly to the mortal world. Most of these passengers have accepted this kind of mission. In addition, they will have to stay on the back of this spiritual eagle for the next ten days. They are bored and like to talk even more. "If you ask me, why do we have to build bridges through mountains? Mortals can also ride on the spirit bird carriage~" "It's easy to say, but spiritual birds don't need spiritual beast pills? How can mortals afford to buy spiritual birds? Another thing is, if we cultivators encounter an accident, even if we are in the Qi Refining Stage, we won't lose our lives if we fall off. If we were mortals, how could we dare to sit on it?" "That's true!" "I think that building that cross-river bridge is not easy either. I wonder if you have ever experienced undercurrents?" "Hiss...I almost fell into this trap a few years ago!" Wei Wenxin had previously received a huge sum of money donated to her by fans from the nine sects and eighteen schools. She was embarrassed to accept it, but couldn't return it, so she had always wanted to do something for the world. Listening to everyone talking about infrastructure tasks, I suddenly had some ideas. Yesterday I boasted that I would be debt-free by mid-month, so just treat it as a fart. Because the sister who ranked first appeared out of nowhere and continued the ten chapters for everyone, it will take at least the second half of the month to complete this big project. It hurts but I am happy, I will work hard. Thank you all for supporting the genuine version, I will do my best ('ω') Now 23-3=20! (End of this chapter)
