Chapter 33: The helplessness of the casual cultivators in the city outside the city
For a moment.
Fan Ze, the deacon of Xianxia Sect, was immediately satisfied when he saw the monks coming out of each house: "If you want to continue renting this house, go to the Deacon Hall of Miyun City to register and pay the rent, so that you can get a residence permit." right.
Of course, if you don’t have so many spirit stones, you can also become a miner for our Xianxia Sect. Then you can live in Miyun City for free and get a salary of one medium-grade spirit stone every month.
If you don’t want to become a miner, our Xianxia Sect has recently been reclaiming spiritual fields and needs a large number of farmers. You can also join, but the salary will be lower, and you will only have ten low-grade spiritual stones per month. "
He briefly talked about the current recruitment situation of Xianxia Sect.
After saying that, the deacon led a group of patrolmen and continued walking towards the next alley.
But he remembered this bad breath.
“Be a miner?”
After returning home, Zhou Sui immediately noticed that his neighbor Zhang Cheng seemed to be packing his luggage.
"Isn't it right? If we really pay the rent, we will really go to eat the northwest wind, where can we practice cultivation."
But he can't afford to offend Xianxia Sect at all.
Zhou Sui clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. His house was robbed for no reason and he had to pay a high rent. No one could bear this feeling.
"You can't say that. How can the city outside be compared with Miyun City? At least Miyun City has patrol protection. Those Jie Cultivators don't dare to act rashly in the city, and their safety is guaranteed."
“Haha, that’s not bad. This is all a conspiracy of the Xianxia Sect. They deliberately raise the price of houses to force us to mine.”
At this time, Zhou Sui also saw some familiar neighbor monks starting to pack their things and leave Miyun City one after another.
Many monks clenched their fists.
“Haha, to be honest, I won’t leave. There are no other cities for casual cultivators that are better than this one.”
“That’s right, there are no laws outside. Jie Xiu can do it at any time and he doesn’t even know how to die.”
Although their qualifications are not good, they all want to cultivate immortality and become a major foundation-building cultivator.
When his cultivation is complete, he will be rewarded sooner or later.
In fact, it’s not just me who made this choice. Many of my neighbors also chose to become miners and signed contracts with the Xianxia Sect to mine for the Xianxia Sect. This is also a good way out. "
…
“Well, it is said that the Xianxia Sect suffered heavy losses this time in order to develop the mineral veins of the Yunwu Mountains. Even two foundation-building monks died. Such losses must be recovered from us casual cultivators.”
“Uncle Zhang, where are you going?”
After all, his cultivation level is only at the fifth level of Qi training, and he can't stand on the stage at all.
"If that's the case, what should we do? We can't leave Miyun City."
But he is not a reckless person and cannot rashly confront the Xianxia Sect. After all, this is the Jindan Sect.
After these people left, the surrounding monks dared to speak out.
They are not fools either. There is no way to see Xianxia Sect’s intentions. They clearly want to force them, casual cultivators, to become miners, dig mineral veins for Xianxia Sect, and act as coolies.
“The vicious Xianxia Sect clearly treats us casual cultivators as consumables.”
"If we stay in the red gold vein for too long, the body will be eroded by the red gold energy and damage the body's meridians. By then we will have no hope of building a foundation."
Because they don’t have so many spiritual stones on them, and they can’t afford such expensive rent, they can only live in the Sanxiufang City outside the city. After all, most of the monks are actually from the Moonlight clan, and they basically buy elixirs if they have any spiritual stones. Take the medicine and improve your cultivation.
Hearing this, Zhou Sui couldn't help being surprised: "But Uncle Zhang, aren't you an alchemist? You shouldn't need to be a miner, and if you work as a miner in the red gold veins for a long time, I'm afraid there will be no hope of building a foundation in this life."
But now, we can only tolerate it for the time being.
Of course Zhou Sui was not so miserable. He had a lot of spiritual stones on his body, so he went to the Deacon Hall in Miyun City and paid half a year's rent and the price of twelve middle-grade spiritual stones.
Some poor monks began to pack their things and planned to live in the scattered repair city outside. After all, the prices outside the city were relatively cheap, but the prices in the city were too expensive.
This is also the ambition of the casual cultivators, but now the Xianxia Sect wants to deprive them of even this hope.
“Why don’t we work as miners? Food and accommodation are included, and we get a monthly salary. The benefits look good.”
"Isn't it? In comparison, Miyun City is not bad. At least we have food, drink, and a lot of resources. If we go to other places, we will not be able to survive."
“Isn’t that so? It’s really shameless for such a large sect to compete with casual cultivators like us for food.”
"In this case, let's move out of the city. It is said that many casual cultivators have formed an alliance and plan to establish a market outside the city. We, the casual cultivators, can survive in the Yunwu Mountains as a group, and the rent is very cheap. , only one low-grade spiritual stone is enough every month.”
Zhang Cheng said helplessly.
“Indeed, if mining is really a good job, those Xianxia Sect disciples would have done it long ago, so where would it be for us casual cultivators to do it.”
If he buys a house in the future, he will be like a dog. There is no guarantee for the property rights of houses in this world.
It is true that there will be side effects of red gold gas entering the body, but it is better than being killed by Jie Xiu, and such side effects may not be impossible to solve, it just requires a lot of spiritual stones.
"Yes, although Miyun City is big, there is no place for us." "Miyun City is no longer the city of casual cultivators it used to be. It can't even afford sewers."
Zhang Cheng was very helpless: "But, the Sanxiufang City outside is very unsafe. If I, the alchemist, go to Sanxiufang City, I will definitely be slaughtered as a fat sheep.
He did not expect Zhang Cheng to make such a choice.
"Damn Xianxia Sect, sooner or later you will have to pay the price."
“Haha, who doesn’t know that the city is safe? The question is, can you afford to live there? Two medium-grade spiritual stones a month. With so many spiritual stones, I might as well buy pills to improve my cultivation.”
Because the property rights of this house were confiscated, it was equivalent to losing thousands of spiritual stones. Who can bear such a loss?
Many casual cultivators were talking about it, but they were helpless.
“A low-grade spiritual stone? Isn’t this almost free? Only dogs live in Miyun City if there is a place like this.”
“Well, I plan to work as a miner, I’m afraid I’ll have to leave soon.”
Thinking about it, I might as well join the Xianxia Sect as a miner. In this case, I can live in Miyun City for free and earn a lot of money every month.
“That’s too cruel, two medium-grade spiritual stones per month, and this is the house we bought. It’s too overbearing to confiscate it if we say it’s confiscated.” Zhang Cheng clenched his fists, very unwilling to accept it.
“If you can’t twist your thigh with your arm, can you really fight with the Xianxia Sect? But the rent has doubled, and we simply can’t afford such an expensive rent.”
"There is no way. Although I am a first-level alchemist, I am only at the level of a first-level mid-level alchemist. At most, I can refine ordinary elixirs. I have already exhausted my family wealth because of refining the elixirs, and I have no way to pay for it. The rent here.”
After saying these words, he sighed, helpless, this is the helplessness of casual cultivators.
He also wanted not to be squeezed by Xianxia Sect, but reality forced him.
