Chapter 38: Start becoming a man today
In the blink of an eye, four days passed.
Because the news of the new house has not yet been released, Ning Ye and her daughter have been temporarily staying in Chu Ran's super mansion for the past four days.
Although living in Chu Ran's house was indeed very comfortable, and Chu's father and mother did not treat him and his daughter as outsiders, Ning Ye always felt that it was not good to live and eat like this all the time.
In the meantime, he contacted Zhou Mu and asked him about the new house. Every time, the answer he got was that it would be soon. He asked Ning Ye to calm down and said that they were making full preparations and the new house would definitely satisfy him by then. .
If it weren't for the fact that Zhou Mu's attitude during the brief contact was very friendly and didn't look like a treacherous person, Ning Ye would have almost thought that these people in the Taoist Alliance were not prepared to admit their guilt and were crazy about taking over their own house. .
What Ning Ye didn't know was that, thanks to him, the life of Zhou Mu's Taoist Alliance group of four had been extremely miserable these past few days due to the house change.
These four people were directly forcibly recruited by the beautiful woman who was the protector of the Dao Alliance as construction workers.
In fact, not only the four of them, but also all the members of the Jiangcheng Taoist Alliance branch suffered, and their young men were ruthlessly recruited.
"Don't be lazy, cheer up and give me a good job!"
Under the afternoon sunshine of Xihe, the daughter of a beautiful woman, the girl in green, who was called Qingqing, waved the long whip in her hand. At this moment, as the supervisor, she commanded a large number of Taoist monks below, as well as many strange-looking people. members of the demon clan.
Hanging on her waist are two simple tokens, one is the demon alliance guardian token from her mother, and the other is the hall leader token from the Jiangcheng Dao Alliance branch.
When he heard that a palace was to be built for the little princess of the demon clan, Master Shou Ji, as the hall master, immediately donated the hall master's token, making a huge contribution to the peace and friendship between the human race and the demon clan.
It was precisely by relying on these two tokens that Qingqing was able to mobilize the forces of the Taoist Alliance and the Demonic Alliance and let them come over to build a house.
If you disobey, it will be regarded as rebellion within the alliance, and you will be punished.
The place where they built their house was a famous water forest attraction not far from the center of Jiangcheng City, with a quiet environment and pleasant scenery.
Originally, according to the government's plan, a high-end villa community was planned to be built here. The bidding results of the construction company have been announced long ago, and even the community planning plan has been released, and groundbreaking will be started at the end of the month.
But now, the plan to build a high-end villa community is naturally cancelled.
This entire piece of land had been purchased directly by the beautiful woman who was the protector of the Demon Alliance, spending ten times the profit from building a high-end villa community, and used it as private land to build the little princess's palace in Jiangcheng.
In the view of the beautiful woman, since the house is for the little princess to live in, even if it is only for one night, it is too careless and must be of the highest standard! Anyway, for the Demon League, worldly money is just a number. Money is not a problem at all, as long as the little princess is happy!
Because she shoulders the heavy responsibility of protecting the little princess, the task of supervising the work is handed over to her daughter Qingqing.
Therefore, those cultivators who could wield swords, volley in the air, swallow clouds and spit smoke, as well as the members of the Demon Alliance scattered throughout Jiangcheng, were all forcibly recruited as strong men, working hard every day and night, using their various magical powers Come and build a house...
An eight-foot-tall bull demon wielded a huge mountain-cutting ax, splitting the rocky mountain in front of him and throwing huge stones out of it.
At this time, another immortal cultivator who was good at swordsmanship unsheathed his natal flying sword, transformed into thousands of sword lights, and cut the stones into regular and even stone slabs in the air. They were used as materials for paving the floor. On the front of the stone slabs, there were also engraved Use the sword to carve beautiful patterns as decoration...
There are many examples of humans and monsters cooperating with each other to achieve success here.
What a harmonious scene.
Although many of them were forcibly recruited by tokens, and some were even forcibly dragged out during retreat practice, but after the initial dissatisfaction and anger, they saw the generous rewards of their own choice for their hard work. In the end, everyone was working hard and full of motivation.
Most of these Dao League monks are practitioners in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and only a few can reach the Golden Core Stage. As for none of them, there are none in the Nascent Soul Stage. In this world where spiritual energy is scarce, there are very few cultivation resources.
But now, they only need to work hard for a few days. After the house is built, they can be ranked according to their contribution and exchange for many rich rewards ranging from spirit-gathering pills to low-level spirit treasures. It is simply not too satisfying.
Needless to say about low-level spiritual treasures, even a monk at the Golden Core stage would find it difficult to own one.
Among the rewards, even the lowest-grade Spirit Gathering Pill is a rare treasure for these monks. If you take one, it can be worth a year of hard work of breathing out spiritual energy. Of course, after taking one Spirit Gathering Pill, the effect will be greatly reduced if taken again, and cannot be stacked repeatedly.
But even so, it is also very good to exchange the elixirs with other Taoists.
"Miss Qingqing, we found another Dao League practitioner, but he was very uncooperative and refused to come to work no matter what." A deacon from the Dao League branch came over and said.
"Ah! There is such a thing. Did you ask him the reason?"
Qingqing was very surprised, because after four days, the practitioners of the Jiangcheng Dao League now knew that the rewards here were generous, and many of them came spontaneously to join the work.
"I asked, but his answer was hesitant and he couldn't explain why."
"Then go and take a look."
Qingqing put away the whip in her hand and followed the Dao League deacon.
Although her long whip looks scary, it is really just a decoration. In order to make herself look more majestic, it is considered a kind of bad taste of hers, and she has never used it.
Arriving at the destination, Qingqing suddenly became interested when she saw the red-haired boy squatting on the ground with a look of despair.
This red-haired boy turned out to be Yan Ri.
These days, in order to fulfill the instructions of Senior Daochu, he was racing against time to search for the whereabouts of Jiang Jingyi, but the other party seemed to have mysteriously disappeared. No matter how hard he tried, he could not find any trace.
What makes Yanri even more strange is that he, who is already ready to take the blame for his senior, has not received any punishment from the Taoist Alliance for so long. He does not believe that Sun Bai, who is determined to retaliate, and his master of the same temperament, will just settle the matter like this.
On this day, after wandering outside for a long time, he was going to go to the branch headquarters to inquire about the situation. As soon as he entered, he found that the alliance was completely empty, not even a single person. Before he could think about it and react, he was immediately struck by the sudden appearance. The deacons within the alliance took control.
I originally thought this was revenge from Sun Bai, but I never thought that he would be asked to help build a house.
What? Build a house?
At that time, Yanri thought there was something wrong with his ears, but the deacon opposite had a serious look on his face and repeated it again, saying that this was an urgent task assigned by the hall master and that all practitioners were required to participate.
When he heard about those generous rewards, Yanri couldn't help but feel excited, but when he thought of Senior Daochu's life-saving grace and the tasks entrusted to him, he still refused.
So, he was caught here.
