Chapter 18: Hardworking Spirits
"Chi chi chi chi!"
(Hurry up, hurry up, the dead branches here need to be picked up, and the fallen leaves need to be swept up.)
The monkey spirit commanded a group of monkeys to jump up and down.
As long as there are dead branches and leaves near the villa where the immortal lives, it will immediately order the monkeys to clean them up.
Especially on the white steps in front of the immortal gate.
That's where fallen leaves and dust are most likely to accumulate. Although Chongfan would occasionally use his authority as the Lord of the Home to summon the wind to blow them away, another layer would accumulate there after a while.
These monkeys got the brooms from somewhere and were sweeping the floor like humans.
The monkey spirit was not idle either.
In addition to directing, it is also doing work.
Dead branches?
Throw it away!
gravel?
Throw it away!
snake?
Throw it away!
At the same time, the peacock spirit couple, the pigeon spirit, and several bird monsters such as the starling bird made use of their natural advantage as bird monsters - catching insects.
As soon as these monsters arrive here, they can clearly feel that the concentration of spiritual energy here is several times higher than that of other places!
It smells refreshing and comfortable.
If I could practice here, one day's practice would probably be equivalent to several days' practice!
In this regard, Chongfan said that the small spirit gathering formation has great merit and fame.
It is because the spiritual energy here is thicker than other places, so those poisonous insects, snakes, ants and the like instinctively run here.
Even though there was a protective shield for their home, they couldn't get in, and there were some terrifying auras inside that were quite terrifying to them.
But, for this breath of spiritual energy, I have to fight!
Some bold poisonous insects, snakes and ants even hide in corners and secretly absorb spiritual energy.
Others hide themselves in various cracks.
And several bird monsters set their sights on these guys.
Mynah birds know that humans use special powders to repel insects.
Humans don't like these guys.
I guess the same applies to immortals.
As it happens, as bird demons, they don’t like it either.
Thus, a vigorous insect extermination operation began.
They first used their aura as bird demons to scare away a group of poisonous insects, snakes and ants. As for those stubborn ones, they were not polite at all.
Peck it to death directly.
Several bird demons have very sharp eyes and can almost spot any corner where these guys are hiding.
In just one morning, the area around Yudu Villa became noticeably cleaner.
Above the attic.
Chongfan naturally saw all of this.
To be honest, looking at the diligence of these little demons, she was also a little touched.
But she knew that the time had not yet come.
Although with the dual enhancement of her pure body and the small spirit gathering formation, her cultivation speed is no different from riding a rocket.
It took others nearly ten years to reach the bone-strengthening stage, but she achieved it in less than a month.
But the time was still too short and her foundation was still too little.
She doesn't have the confidence to instruct others now.
You have to develop slowly.
-
in the afternoon.
Chongfan, who was practicing magic, felt something in his heart.
Ok?
Why are they here again?
She used her spiritual sense to take a look and saw that these little demons had brought some flowers, fruits and delicacies to offer at the gate.
After praying devoutly several times, they waited for a while, and when they saw that no one opened the door, they shook their heads and went down the mountain.
In the next few days, these little demons would come here, either to clean or to offer flowers and fruits.
Sometimes some strange little gadgets are also offered as sacrifices.
It seems that this place has become their daily check-in spot.
Even though they are rejected every day, they still enjoy doing it.
Every morning, the unwanted items offered to the immortals yesterday are taken away. After a morning sweep, new items are offered in the afternoon.
They even agreed to take turns guarding the immortal's gate to prevent other blind creatures from disturbing them.
After all, the immortal's reputation has now spread to the town, and it is inevitable that some idle people will want to come and find out more.
At first, Chongfan sent someone to persuade them not to do so.
But these little guys didn't listen at all.
They claim to do things voluntarily.
Persuasion was fruitless, so Chongfan simply let them go.
-
Luoxia Town.
The starling flew to the second floor of a restaurant and flew in through the open window of a private room on the second floor.
It flew skillfully to the wine table.
Then he put down the herb in his mouth.
"Hey, old man, I knew you were drinking here again."
There was a small bowl on the table, filled with clear wine.
The starling put its beak in and took a small sip.
Then he shook his head and said, "Although the wine you humans drink tastes strange, it somehow makes me feel a little drunk."
The white-haired old man sitting opposite it laughed out loud.
He stroked his gray beard, pointed at the starling and joked:
"You!"
I didn't find the starling strange at all. Instead, I felt like I was very familiar with it.
"By the way, old man, although I failed in my mission, I still want to thank you for the pot of wine. This is a hundred-year-old Polygonatum odoratum that I picked from Yudu Mountain. Just consider it as a token of my gratitude for your kindness."
The old man with white beard was not polite and took the herbs with a smile.
"You said you failed in that thing?"
The old man inquired.
Speaking of this, the starling sighed.
"Oh, forget it. The immortal refused it outright and even refused to accept the gift we sent."
The old man suddenly pretended to be dissatisfied.
"What about my jug of good wine? You won't give it back?"
The starling bird immediately avoided his gaze.
"Well, no, I just wanted to taste it myself."
The old man burst into laughter.
"You, you, you!"
He suddenly said casually: "I have a good friend who is also a cultivator. Do you want to try it there?"
He said in a confident tone: "Don't worry, he and I have been friends for many years. With my recommendation, there will be no problem. He is more than qualified to be a demon master."
The starling's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Brother, I believe your recommendation, but I have five brothers and sisters at home. Can they go too?"
The old man shook his head.
"No."
The starling's eyes dimmed.
"That's it..."
"Don't you want to go by yourself?"
The old man stroked his beard and said.
The starling shook his head.
"Of course I do, but I'm worried about them. The six of us have been together for decades since we became sworn brothers, and we once swore to 'share happiness and difficulties together'."
It sighed.
"How can I abandon them and enjoy myself? Wouldn't that be a violation of my promise?"
After hearing this, the old man looked at the starling with satisfaction and admiration.
I admire its bird's character and am glad that I did not make a mistake.
Since his demon friend has made his own choice, he can only respect its decision.
"In that case, I respect your choice. Come, have a drink, hahaha!"
The old man drank the glass happily.
The starling also put its beak into the small bowl and took a sip.
-
A few days later.
Shuitian Village.
Looking at the sleeping old man, Li Xiaoman seemed to have made up his mind.
He walked out of the room quietly, looked at the still early sky, packed his bag of dry food and went up the mountain.
Grandpa, I'm afraid I won't have to listen to you this time.
