As a result, walking was naturally much slower, but Ling Qing didn't care and walked forward step by step.

On the road, many senior brothers passed him with flying strides, but he was not in a hurry.

When we arrived at the woodshed, the senior brother in charge of chopping firewood didn't even look at it, he just picked it up and threw it on a pile of thin firewood.

Those were hacked by their uninitiated disciples.

I saw that those senior brothers had already returned two or three times carrying small mountains of firewood.

The two bundles put together are not as thick as an armful, and they are all thin wood.

He doesn't feel ashamed. He is at his limit now. When his strength increases in the future, he can naturally be like those senior brothers.

However, I don’t see much being cooked in this canteen, and I don’t know why so much firewood is used every day.

Thinking about all this, Lingqing didn't rest even after putting down the firewood, turned around and walked towards Chaishan.

On the way, I also took an empty load to familiarize myself with the method just now.

In such an afternoon, not to mention getting to know the people around him, even Zhang Zhe, who was not far away from him, didn't say a word.

Being in a state of physical and mental exhaustion all the time is really torturous.

He had to put all his energy into chopping and carrying firewood.

Otherwise, if you are even slightly distracted, you may misunderstand the strength of the burden. Fortunately, if you are injured, there is magic to treat it.

If you practice poorly, your effort will be wasted and your time will be wasted.

It wasn't until the sun had risen to the center that Lingqing found a place under the shade of a tree and took out a piece of bread from his arms.

When Zhang Zhe saw this, he also sat over. The two of them were not in the mood to talk, so they just ate the water from the water gourd and took a short rest.

This biscuit is dry and hard, but it weighs quite a bit.

Not to mention, it doesn’t look good and tastes difficult to eat, but it looks like a really good thing.

After finishing a piece of cake, not only did I feel the hunger in my belly dissipate, but I also felt a sense of satisfaction in my heart, and my tense spirit also relaxed a lot.

He even feels a little more agile mentally and seems to have a little more energy in his body.

However, there is no prompt about attribute increase or any training progress, so the increase must not be enough.

But fortunately, the proficiency of Wu Qin Xi has increased visibly to the naked eye.

There are two ways to upgrade the general skills learned.

One is to directly use experience to upgrade. A little general experience can improve a little proficiency.

If there are no special requirements, or if the corresponding requirements are met, you can also use experience points to directly upgrade your skills to Grand Master perfection.

The other is to practice over and over again like ordinary people, which can also increase skill proficiency.

However, such an improvement method will encounter a bottleneck during upgrade.

You need to understand the key points to level up.

But you can also directly invest some general experience to directly improve it.

This is only possible because the accumulation itself is enough.

This bit of experience is naturally not very noticeable when it comes to improving proficiency.

But at this moment, it is like a flash of inspiration, which can make people realize the key point immediately.

The two of them were not in the mood to talk. After feeling that the food in his stomach was almost digested, Ling Qing stood up and climbed up the tree again.

It wasn't until the sun set in the west that Lingqing returned with a load of firewood and was told that the work was done for the day, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

For a moment, I felt as if all my energy and energy had been drained from my body. I sat in the courtyard and rested for a long time before I recovered.

The fatigue of this day really reached his limit, and it also made him realize how hard it is to live in the mountains.

Fortunately, there is some magical magic cast in this mountain, so no matter how hard you work, your body will not be hurt by it.

Otherwise, based on his workload today, even with magical treatment, his body would be in ruins now.

After a while, Zhang Zhe also came back and sat down next to him without saying a word.

Thinking about it, I had to work hard and was very tired.

"Let's go, it's almost time to eat after taking a shower."

Seeing that he had almost rested, Ling Qing stood up and said.

There is a small hot spring in the temple. I don't know whether it is naturally formed or caused by magic.

Several bathhouses were built around this hot spring. After working every day, everyone would come here to wash themselves.

Firstly, it can remove sweat stains, and secondly, it can also wash away fatigue.

After taking a shower and eating in the cafeteria, there was nothing else going on except for the main hall and some important places.

You can move around at will inside the temple.

Having just arrived yesterday, Lingqing and the other three were not aware of the ban on the temple and did not dare to wander around.

But everyone is a little curious about the difference between Laoshan at this time and modern Laoshan.

In addition, after understanding some situations today, I feel much better after taking a bath and eating.

Ling Qing and Zhang Zhe called their uncle and nephew from the Li family and planned to go for a walk in the mountains together.

As for Zhu Guang, he was still busy in the kitchen at this time.

Unlike the modern Shangqing Palace which occupies a small area, at this time the top of Laoshan Mountain was entirely wrapped in the temple.

In addition to the bluestone steps in front of the mountain, there is a rugged path leading to Chaishan Mountain.

When you enter the door from outside the temple, you will see a screen wall with bell and drum towers on both sides.

Behind it is the main hall where the master is, with side halls on both sides.

Further back there are three main halls, the Jade Emperor's Hall in the middle, the Three Emperors' Hall on the left, and the Sanguan's Hall on the right.

Finally, in the northwest corner of the temple is a Sutra Collection Hall, with an Alchemy Pavilion and a pharmacy next to it.

To the east of the hall is the living place for the disciples. The disciples who have already started are in the front yard, close to the main hall.

There is a door to the east of the Three Emperors Hall, leading to the courtyard of Lingqing and others and the martial arts stage near the east cliff.

You can also go south to the courtyards of the initiate brothers.

At the back are the canteen, woodshed and the vegetable patch in the temple.

The layout is roughly the same, but the buildings rise and fall along the mountain, with winding paths leading to seclusion, and various palaces and pavilions arranged in between.

In the seclusion of the jungle, there are small places full of Taoism everywhere, where people practice martial arts and chant scriptures in their spare time.

Each hall is guarded by disciples on duty, most of whom are a Taoist priest with one or two Taoist boys.

The temple does not often receive foreign visitors, so most of the disciples who are on duty are cleaning the main hall and practicing martial arts and Taoism in their free time.

Lingqing and the four of them just walked around the courtyard, went to the martial arts stage to have a look, and then went back.

I don’t know whether it’s because the secret technique is not allowed to be revealed or for some other reason, but no one saw anyone practicing the spell.

I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but I didn't doubt that there was no immortal magic on the mountain.

I met a few senior brothers who were practicing boxing and kicking, breathing and practicing Qi.

Several people did not dare to take a closer look, fearing that they had violated some taboo, so they left in a hurry.

Seeing that it was almost time, the four of them started to turn around and walk towards the dormitory.

Although the stars and moon are bright on the mountain, it is not advisable to walk around much in the dark.

Furthermore, it means that we will continue chopping firewood early tomorrow morning.
Chapter completed!
