I rely on length to cultivate immortality

Chapter 4 The Cursed Donggeng District

Senior Brother Song Yu handed Li Xiuchang and Chi Hui to the Xianchen Sect's outer sect's guide disciple, and left with Pang Yuanfu.

Before leaving, Senior Brother Song Yu also told Li Xiuchang and Chi Hui:

"When you choose to practice the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation in a few days, if you can't make up your mind, you can come to me."

"Thank you, Senior Brother!"

Li Xiuchang hurriedly thanked him, feeling lucky to meet such a kind-hearted Senior Brother Song Yu.

The guide disciple who was responsible for placing Li Xiuchang and Chi Hui was named Wang Long. Seeing that Li Xiuchang and Chi Hui had a relationship with Song Yu, he was also very polite to them.

Wang Long first took Li Xiuchang and Chi Hui to the outer sect's guide office to register their identities and received identity tokens, and then took them to choose a place to live.

"This is a map of the outer disciples' residential area. The houses marked in red represent those that have already been occupied. Each of our outer disciples has a house. You can choose any of the vacant houses."

Wang Long took out a jade slip and injected a trace of spiritual energy into it. A map composed of light and shadow was immediately projected from the jade slip.

Li Xiuchang asked Chi Hui to choose first, while he took the opportunity to carefully examine the map.

The residential area of ​​the outer disciples of Xianchen Sect is divided into four large areas, namely the southeast, northwest and northeast. Each large area is divided into ten small areas according to the ten heavenly stems: Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren and Gui.

Each small area contains dozens or hundreds of houses, which are numbered.

Li Xiuchang's eyes wandered over the map and found that many areas were fully occupied. Excluding the areas that were not open for occupancy, the general occupancy rate was more than 70%!

Li Xiuchang was a person with a cheat, and he did not want to have too much contact with others, so as not to be seen as abnormal.

He originally wanted to find a quiet residence with few people, but it seemed not easy.

As his eyes wandered, he was soon attracted by a spot on the map.

It was hard not to be attracted, because compared to the densely packed red dots in other areas, the red dots in one area seemed too sparse.

Something must be wrong when things are abnormal, Li Xiuchang asked: "Brother Wang, why are there so few people living in Donggeng District? Is it newly opened?"

"That's not it." Wang Long was not surprised to see Li Xiuchang asking about Donggeng District. He was taking in new disciples, and there were often people interested in Donggeng District.

He then skillfully repeated to Li Xiuchang what he had said to other new disciples:

"This Donggeng District is a bit weird. We do not recommend new disciples to move in. Junior Brother Li, you should find another good place."

His words aroused Chi Hui's curiosity. She stared at him with her big watery eyes and asked, "Brother Wang, what's so weird about it? Tell us."

Under the girl's expectant eyes, Wang Long lowered his voice and said, "There are two ways for us outer disciples to rise in the sect. One is to practice quickly and build a foundation before the age of 40, and then we can be promoted to the inner sect as an exception;

"The second is to have superior skills. If you have a skill that reaches the third level, you can become an outer sect worshiper and even have the hope of becoming an outer sect elder in the future.

"Although these two roads are difficult, each residential area can produce an inner disciple or outer priest every few decades or even hundreds of years. Only the Donggeng District is said to be stagnant for two thousand years, without even one inner disciple or outer priest.

"Over time, there were rumors that the Donggeng District was cursed. Once you move in, your future will be bleak. We cultivators are most taboo about fate and luck. We would rather believe in it than not believe in it. Naturally, no one dared to move in. Some people who moved in because they didn't believe in it eventually moved out. "

When Chi Hui heard this, she immediately kept her distance from Donggeng District and chose an area with more female disciples to live in under Wang Long's suggestion.

But Li Xiuchang was thinking in his heart that Donggeng District was a small residential area with only more than 30 houses, and only four houses were occupied.

These four houses were not adjacent to each other, which meant that the four brothers or sisters who moved in were all people who valued privacy.

If he chose a house in the corner of Donggeng District to live in, it would be his dream house!

As for the curse, Li Xiuchang didn't take it too seriously. Xianchen Sect was a well-known righteous sect in the entire Xianyin Realm. If there was a curse, how could the sect leaders not eliminate it?

"Brother Wang, I like quietness, so I'll live in Donggeng District." Li Xiuchang said.

"Are you sure?" Wang Long blinked. He didn't expect Li Xiuchang to be so stubborn.

"Sure. "Li Xiuchang nodded.

"You have to think clearly..." Wang Long lowered his voice, "Originally, I shouldn't criticize others behind their backs, but according to the disciples who moved out of Donggeng District before, several senior brothers in Donggeng District have strange tempers and are not easy to get along with. "

There are only four senior brothers in Donggeng District. How many are "several"?

But it doesn't matter. When Li Xiuchang heard this, he was more satisfied with Donggeng District.

Difficult to get along with?

Then just don't get along with them, which is exactly what he wants.

If the neighbors are warm people, Li Xiuchang's deliberate alienation would seem a bit rude, but now he has no such concerns.

"Thank you for your reminder, senior brother, I will try it first. If I am not used to living here, it will not be too late to move out. "

Seeing Li Xiuchang insisting, Wang Long stopped trying to persuade him.

Every few years, there are always a few stubborn people who insist on living in Donggeng District...such as the four people living in Donggeng District now.

...

Wang Long drove the flying boat and sent Li Xiuchang to Donggeng District.

On the flying boat, Li Xiuchang got a glimpse of the whole Donggeng District. The entire Donggeng District was similar to the "community" in his previous life, and it was a high-end villa area.

There are a total of thirty-two houses, all of which are identical two-story buildings with a medium-sized yard attached.

"Senior Brother Wang, didn't you say that those who cultivate immortals all live in caves, why are there buildings and bungalows everywhere in our Xianchen Sect?" Li Xiuchang asked curiously.

"Hahaha, you are an old man." Wang Long said with a smile, "Caves are often built close to mountains in order to be close to the spiritual veins in the mountains and absorb spiritual energy more easily. But since the 'spiritual energy pipeline transmission technology' has matured, who can still Are you okay living on the mountain?"

Chi Hui looked at the house below with a look of joy on her face. The living conditions of the outer disciples of the Xianchen Sect were quite good, beyond her imagination.

She asked in disbelief: "Senior Brother Wang, is such a big house really just for us to live in?"

"Of course!"

As Wang Long landed on the flying boat, he explained: "We cultivators are afraid of being disturbed when we practice, and living together has many inconveniences... However, we outer disciples must practice the various arts of cultivating immortals. In the future, we will learn the skills. We will recruit one or two apprentices to help, and these apprentices may also live with us."

"I see."

After the flying boat stopped, Li Xiuchang followed Wang Long into Donggeng District.

Li Xiuchang chose a number among the vacant houses in the corner with an auspicious number: No. 18, Donggeng District!

“From now on, your identity token is the key to your house.”

Wang Long used Li Xiuchang's identity token to complete the match with the guardian array of House No. 18 in Donggeng District, and demonstrated to Li Xiuchang how to use the token to switch the array on and off.

Every house is protected by the courtyard guard formation, so that the safety and privacy of the disciples are guaranteed, which makes Li Xiuchang very satisfied.

After doing all this, Wang Long was about to say goodbye and leave, continuing to see Chi Hui to her residence.

Li Xiuchang quickly stopped him: "Senior Brother Wang, what should I do next?"

"Look at my memory!" Wang Long slapped his forehead, then remembered, took out a book from the storage bag on his waist and stuffed it into Li Xiuchang's hand.

Li Xiuchang took a closer look at the book cover:

"Introductory Guide" - compiled by the guide office of the outer gate of Xianchen Sect.
