The two women rented a separate courtyard and continued to live in the same place, while he stayed there on the pretext that he had hired the two women to look after the courtyard for them.
This was discussed last night.
It is not unusual for outside disciples to do things for family members in exchange for rewards.
In any case, the labor force is sold to supplement the shortage of cultivation resources. Whether the labor force is sold to a sect or an individual is the same.
This is true for the outer disciples, let alone the handyman disciples.
The sect is also the default attitude.
From the perspective of cultivating disciples, the feeling of being subordinate to others can stimulate a person's competitive spirit. Only by letting go of undue self-esteem can the path of martial arts go further.
As for why the two women didn't move into the other house they rented, since it was vacant and they couldn't live in it, why did they hire Lin Ansheng to look after the house?
These two doubtful points that can easily arouse suspicion from others have also been discussed and explained to the outside world.
It was the idea of the two women's families to rent this villa. They wanted them to have a better living environment when the sect's general election was coming. However, the two women made this determination and would not enter the villa unless they entered the inner gate.
After receiving Lin Ansheng's permission, both women looked happy. Immediately, Qin Qianqian said: "The three of us will share the rent equally, each of us will get twenty yuan for a first-grade spiritual stone."
Lin Ansheng slapped his forehead, failure!
"Besides, the sect's general election is coming soon, and we also want to find a quieter place to live."
There are two steps in refining the medicine. Heating to combine the medicinal power of the six herbs to achieve the appropriate benefits is only the first step. The second step is to convert the liquid into a solid state.
According to a practicing prescription, six herbs and six herbs were put into the copper furnace.
As if she was afraid that Lin Ansheng would reject her, Shi Yurou added: "Other brothers and sisters also share the situation equally."
Under normal circumstances, everyone is not surprised and accepts it easily.
Lin Ansheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, failure!
Pour out the discarded chemical liquid in the copper furnace, clean it, and start over.
Is this what the ancients said, that women are fickle?
Before Lin Ansheng could speak, Qin Qianqian spread her hands and said with some helplessness: "When I returned to my residence last night, Sister Yurou and I discussed it again. If this matter is known to the family, they will definitely become suspicious."
Lin Ansheng was a little embarrassed: "It's nothing else. I'm just a man living with you."
Lin Ansheng gradually realized that the internal layout of all other courtyards was like this, which was equivalent to a small building with three independent households. When the landlord rented it out, how could he ask that all three households must be male or all?
female.
This time it was Shi Yurou who answered him, with a clear and soft voice: "All the senior brothers and sisters from the inner sect live in courtyards like this. I haven't heard any rumors."
Qin Qianqian listened halfway and immediately said: "We can trust your character. If you have plans for us, we would not be safe the night before yesterday."
Two days later, the medicinal materials that Qin's family exchanged for arrived, and they were loaded into most of the carriage.
We can't blame him for overthinking, but we can only blame him for being stuck in the kitchen and not having enough experience.
Once everything is ready, the practice of alchemy begins.
When talking about such a topic, Shi Yurou couldn't be as calm as Qin Qianqian, who had regained her liveliness and a bit of petiteness. She lowered her eyes a little shyly, but still nodded her chin and hummed softly.
Qin Qianqian looked very surprised when she heard this, and Shi Yurou also raised her eyes with confusion.
Qin Qianqian echoed: "Yes, there are several other courtyards in the outer gate where men and women live together. Senior Brother Fei, Senior Sister Ling, and Senior Sister Tong live in the same courtyard. Gu Changning, Qin Feng, and Junior Sister Ji also live in the same courtyard.
There are no rumors, sister Yurou and I were originally planning to live in a separate courtyard with a senior brother, but later that senior brother took over the sect's mission and did not come back after going down the mountain."
Anyway, since the two girls do not live in separate courtyards, and Lin Ansheng lives alone, it will not make people think more about their relationship.
Why did we go back on something we had agreed upon after one night?
In addition to medicinal materials, there are also a number of necessities for refining medicine.
After half a stick of incense, the liquid in the copper furnace turned dark red. Lin Ansheng realized that the internal force was too strong, and it was useless to try to reduce the internal force. After a while, he heard "bang"
There was a sound, and the liquid splashed out, quickly turning black and red.
This time, Lin Ansheng became cautious. From the beginning, the output of his internal force was much lower than what he deliberately suppressed. As a result, the activation of his internal force was too small. Half a quarter of an hour later, the liquid was just red and began to turn into a paste.
There is still a long way to go before successfully refining a finished product.
Their reactions confused Lin Ansheng: "Am I wrong?"
In other words, he spent thirty yuan of first-grade spiritual stones this night.
Shi Yurou on the side stared at Lin Ansheng with bright eyes and nodded her head heavily.
The raw materials plus the consumption of black charcoal each time are almost two and a half yuan of first-grade spiritual stones, which is twenty-seven and a half yuan for eleven times.
That night, the three of them moved into the other courtyard. Shi Yurou lived in the left area, Qin Qianqian lived in the right area, and Lin Ansheng lived in the middle area closest to the backyard.
Then, use internal force to control the intensity of the flame.
That night, in the room that Lin Ansheng used as his alchemy, Lin Ansheng lit a pile of charcoal fire, with a small copper stove on top, and hot water boiling in the copper stove.
After a short break, he continued for the third time
This continued for three and a half hours, and Lin Ansheng tried again and again eleven times, but failed without exception.
Without this worry, it would be okay for the two girls to move in together. Lin Ansheng thought about it again and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so he nodded and said, "Okay, you can just move in together."
Hiring Lin Ansheng to look after the hospital was a friendship formed the night before when they were in danger together. The two women were determined to help a group of handyman disciples who were paid a meager monthly salary.
Lin Ansheng shook his head and said: "People's words are terrible. I am worried that if someone notices me, some rumors will spread, which will damage the reputation of the two senior sisters."
Another day, the medicinal materials exchanged by the master's family also arrived and were loaded into half a carriage.
The high concentration when refining the medicine took a huge toll on physical strength and energy, and a full two and a half pieces of first-grade spiritual stones were used as supplements.
Hearing what they said, Lin Ansheng didn't show any pretense and said hello.
Any deviation in the second step means the loss of medicinal properties, which is related to the medicinal properties of the final product. Controlling the heat is much more difficult than the first step.
"Made, this is not refining medicine. It's just a waste of money." After cleaning the six copper furnaces, Lin Ansheng took a rough inventory. The corners of his eyes twitched so hard that he couldn't help but curse.
Thirty pieces of first-grade spiritual stones were the total of his share of the small pot dishes for eight or nine days, and they were just like this.
If the three coachmen hadn't left behind a rich legacy, they probably wouldn't have been able to practice alchemy for even ten days.
