Going Out

So after that, he had to shift this hobby to planting herbs and collecting pill recipes.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have planted such a large field of medicinal herbs in the Green Field Secret Realm back then.

Now he had actually run into a good seedling with extremely high alchemy talent like Sun Yigao. He was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and under his guidance, he had only refined his second batch of pills, yet he was able to produce a mid-grade pill!

Although it wasn't a very rare pill, just a fairly conventional detoxifying pill.

But from this, one could see his astonishing talent!

The more Liao Pantu thought about this kid, the more satisfied he became. He really wanted to take him in as a disciple...

It was just a pity that he was already Lin Xiao's disciple.

Thinking of Lin Xiao, Liao Pantu shook his head and sighed.

Alas, this kid.

But on second thought, he wondered if they could accept something like a second master...?

The crowd came to the Sun family, and Landlord Sun and Aunt Sun warmly received them.

Liao Pantu didn't follow them over.

After all, his appearance looked too scary, making it inappropriate to walk around the village recklessly.

Everyone squeezed into Sun Yigao's room and started chatting one by one with Sun Yigao, whose spirit looked fairly good.

Lin Xiao lightly punched his left chest and said:

"Good brother, I won't say much in thanks. When you've recovered, let's go up the mountain together to barbecue!"

Sun Yigao smiled gently and said somewhat weakly:

"Okay."

Jiang Youfu gave him a thumbs up and said:

"Yigao, you're the best! Brother Xiao is my big brother, and from now on, you're my second brother!"

Tietou nodded repeatedly on the side:

"Me too!"

Looking at the crowd gathered around his bed, Sun Yigao only felt that his weak body had been injected with a bit of strength. He smiled and nodded at everyone, then said to Lin Xiao:

"Brother Xiao, the imperial examination is starting next month, and I plan to participate."

Hearing this, everyone was very surprised and said one after another:

"We're all cultivating immortality now, what are you going to take the exam for?"

Now everyone in the sect had entered the Qi Refining stage, and among these teenagers present, even Tietou, who had the slowest cultivation progress, was already at the second level of Qi Refining. Everyone had more or less learned some spells, and only then did they gradually experience the wonders of being a cultivator.

Therefore, everyone didn't understand why he didn't hurry up and cultivate, but instead planned to spend a lot of time participating in some imperial examination.

However, Lin Xiao wasn't very surprised to hear his plan. If he had been studying for so many years since childhood, he would definitely want to take the exam to see how his grades were, which could be considered as giving an answer to his past self who had buried his head in hard study for many years.

He nodded to show his understanding:

"Alright, but you must also be careful when reviewing, don't tire yourself out."

Sun Yigao smiled and explained to everyone:

"After all, having studied hard for so many years, I just want to try and see what level I can reach in the exam. Don't worry, everyone, as soon as I finish the exam, I will come back and continue cultivating with you."

Although nowadays he cultivated on the mountain every day during the day, when he returned home at night, he would still pick up the books in his house. These were the good teachers and helpful friends that had accompanied him for the past ten years.

Qin Jianghe on the side immediately said:

"It's only right! You've read books for so many years, and the whole village has seen it. We're also curious about how well you can do in the exam!"

Saying that, he changed the subject and said to Lin Xiao:

"Brother Xiao, recently I also plan to go out for a walk. I want to go out and see if I can open up some financial resources for our sect!"

These days, he watched all the things Lin Xiao did for the sect. Almost all the current changes in the sect were built by Lin Xiao alone.

Even for the safety of the village, he went to face such a huge monster all by himself. He thought that he couldn't let Brother Xiao work so hard, he had to share the burden for him.

Hearing him say this, Lin Xiao was a little surprised. He looked at Qin Jianghe and said:

"Do you have any ideas?"

Qin Jianghe scratched his head, chuckled, and said:

"Nothing much, I just plan to first wander around a few towns near our town, learn from you to do that teeth cleaning business, and when I've earned some silver, I'll go to the county or prefecture to see if I can use it to do some business."

Hearing this, Lin Xiao pondered for a moment. Now he was indeed a bit short-handed. It would of course be best if everyone could contribute to the construction of the sect, so if they had ideas, he naturally wouldn't refuse. Thus he said:

"That's not bad either, it's just that it will delay your cultivation. Do you plan to go out by yourself, or find someone to go with?"

"Sigh, sharpening the axe won't delay the wood-chopping. I plan to find two brothers from my uncle's family to go together and let them help me. When I smooth out the business path, I'll just throw the matters aside and be a hands-off boss, hehe."

Qin Jianghe was still quite confident about his ability to make money,

"It's just that Brother Xiao, in this way I will inevitably have to expose our sect to my two cousins, but don't worry, they are both absolutely honest people! They will never shoot their mouths off to others."

Lin Xiao nodded and said:

"It's fine, if you think it's appropriate, you can also include them in our sect and make them your disciples.

It's just that when you are out and about, although we are very far from the cultivation world here, who knows if there might be cultivators coming to the mortal realm? Or there might be demons and the like. In short, you all have to pay attention to your own safety."

Saying that, he turned his head and said to Sun Yigao and Qin Jianghe:

"These two days I will prepare some things for the two of you to use when you go out."

He planned to study and see if he could make some self-defense items for them to bring along, and incidentally prepare some other items they could use.

Suddenly, a system notification sound rang in his mind.

[Ding—The host has automatically unlocked the function of delegating the authority to recruit sect members. This function allows the host to independently modify the authority of sect members to recruit other members. Friendly reminder: Those who have not obtained the qualification of a sect member cannot cultivate the sect's mental cultivation methods.]

Receiving this message, Lin Xiao thought that the system was quite copyright-conscious.

The other few people who had been quiet on the side saw that they had finished chatting, and only then did they put their arms around Qin Jianghe's shoulders and start joking around,

"Not bad, Jianghe! You're not marrying a wife anymore and are going out to roam by yourself!"

"If you see anything delicious when you go out, remember to bring some back for me!"

"And mine, and mine!"

Although Liu Yunan and the others were joking around, seeing Qin Jianghe contributing and thinking so much for the sect, they also started to ponder in their hearts whether there was anything they could do for the sect.

Not to mention Sun Yigao. In their sect, apart from Aunt Yang taking care of Liu Shengsheng, almost everyone's mental cultivation methods were taught by him hand in hand.

The few teenagers were still laughing and joking on the surface, but in their hearts, they had already begun to ponder.

They also wanted to do their part for the sect.

By the time everyone came out of the Sun family's house, it was already dusk.

The warm light of the setting sun shone on Xiushui Village, and the whole village seemed to emit a rosy glow.
