Chapter 497 Firewood Team
After the new outer disciples were assigned, they went to the assigned places to report.
There were five people assigned to the Firewood Team, including Jin Ling. In terms of strength, they were roughly the worst among the 460 outer disciples who passed the assessment, and they basically had serious injuries on **.
A thirty-one and two-year-old outer disciple was tall and tall, with a mature appearance and a kind expression. After the order was read out, he took the five of them over and introduced himself that he was the captain of the Firewood Team in Waigen District, named Cheng Song.
After introducing himself, he took everyone to the Firewood Team.
The Firewood Team is located in the area closest to the outer edge of the Outer Area of Waigen, and is basically the closest to the outer edge of the outer gate of Shanhai Zong except for the guard post.
It has its own territory, and it is a large territory, an extremely huge courtyard surrounded by walls. There are huge open spaces and many warehouses. On the open spaces and in the warehouses, there are piles of barn-shaped firewood.
This scene reminded Jin Ling of the forage farm outside the grassland village.
There were more than a dozen disciples of the firewood team, wielding axes and chopping thick raw materials under the scorching sun, sweating profusely.
"Everyone line up, welcome our new junior brothers!" With Cheng Song's shout, the disciples of the Firewood Team put down their axes and lined up in an orderly manner to applaud the newcomers to welcome them.
Cheng Song then introduced the name of the newcomer and also mentioned the composition of the Firewood Team. In addition to the five newcomers, the Firewood Team now has a total of 37 disciples, all of whom are at the junior to senior immortal masters.
Captain Cheng Song, a senior immortal master, has been in the art for fifteen years.
"We welcome everyone to join here. Let me first introduce the main situation of the team to the new people. Our firewood team's main task is to provide thousands of people in the Waigen District of Shanhai Zongwai Geng District, and some of the firewood needs to be burned into high-quality charcoal and sent to the inner door and several upper-level areas. To put it bluntly, our identity is to chop firewood."
The three words "cooking wood" made the new young disciples feel cold.
"The firewood team is divided into three groups, each group of about ten people. Generally, three groups take turns to do things every day, one group goes down the mountain to chop firewood, the second group chops firewood in the team, and the third group practices in the training ground. Each group has the same strength, and the daily tasks are the same. In order to ensure the balance of strength of each group, you five, Jin Ling goes to the third group, and the other two groups in each group."
Everyone had no objection to Cheng Song's distribution on the surface, after all, they could see that Jin Ling's strength was far superior to the other four. Just looking at his calm and gentle clouds while the other four were seriously injured.
But for some reason, I knew that this kid was a senior immortal master but couldn't see the fluctuations in his immortal power.
The leader of the third group is Lin Zheng, who is a young man of twenty-two or three years old, and his cultivation is also a senior immortal master. However, seeing his frowning, he seemed to have something to say.
"Lin Zheng, are you a little dissatisfied with my assignment?" Cheng Songhu asked with a face.
Lin Zheng said with a bitter face: "Captain Cheng, I'm not dissatisfied. The people who come here here are not very important in their cultivation. Anyway, they are abandoned children and servants. What's there to be dissatisfied with?"
Cheng Song was a little angry, his voice became stern, and he said, "Team Leader Lin, don't complain! What are abandoned sons and servants? Others look down on us, we should look down on ourselves! I tell you, Director Wen told me privately, this kid's potential is not something you can imagine. Don't dislike him!"
Lin Zheng shouted: "Captain Hong? Do you think I look down on people like that? But you also know that among the eight areas of the outer gate, only our Firewood Team in the Outer Geng District is going to go to the middle of Baiyue Peak to chop firewood. The mountains are high and dense, and powerful monsters are often present. Moreover, we have few people, and our cultivation is relatively low, not even an immortal level! I heard that there are at least ten new disciples assigned by the Firewood Team in the other Outer Gate District. Why are there only five people here? "
"So what about the five people?" Cheng Song became even more harsh. "Even if there is no increase in one person, will the sect not do the tasks assigned to us?
"If you talk about a monster
There are also some at the foot of the mountain. The middle of the mountain is still at the foot of the mountain. For the primary immortals, stronger monsters are no different from weaker monsters. Those who cultivate immortals are fighting with the heavens and fighting with monsters is very common. They are sad and afraid of death, and have fear in their hearts. How can they achieve great success by cultivating?"
"If you are so sad and afraid of death, why should you work hard to come to Shanhai Sect to practice? Leaving this sect and going home to have a peaceful life, wouldn't you get what you want?"
"I just saw them and thought of injustice, and I had no other intentions." Lin Zheng's tone softened and he stopped talking.
Seeing that he was like this, Cheng Song did not continue to get into trouble and continued to speak.
"You new disciples, don't think that chopping firewood is easy. The firewood area of Shanhai Sect is not above the Tianji Peak of Beihai, but in another peak of the Shidong Mountains, commonly known as the foot of Baiyue Peak and the central area. To get to Baiyue Peak, you must first go down from Shanhai Sect early in the morning. Walk up a dozen miles of mountain roads, go down to the foot of the peak and then walk northward on a twenty-mile mountain road to reach Baiyue Peak. Then go up the mountain and walk up a dozen miles to reach the Chaihe area. After chopping the firewood, it is basically dark."
"Captain." A new disciple gritted his teeth, "We spend all our day chopping wood, where can we have time to practice?"
"Cultivation?" Cheng Song looked at him in surprise, "I just said that the Firewood Team is divided into three teams and takes turns to do things. Each team has only one day to practice in three days."
"We are immortals. If we can only practice for one day in three days, wouldn't we be two-thirds behind the cultivation effect and progress compared to immortals of the same level?" The new disciple's face looked ugly. The same was true for the other people.
"That's right, this is the life of the disciples of the outer sect of Shanhai Sect." Cheng Song nodded seriously, "not only the firewood team, but other beast-training halls, medicinal halls, mine-refining halls, Xinying Halls, etc., are all like this. If not, I, a disciple who has been in the school for fifteen years, have no bad qualifications. Why did I only cultivate from an intermediate immortal master to a high-level immortal master within fifteen years?"
As soon as these words were said, not only newcomers, but even those disciples of the Firewood Team who had joined the original face were full of Qi Ran.
"I know you are not satisfied! But!" Cheng Song changed his voice, "But who said that you have the lowest cultivation level and the worst performance in the assessment? If you don't want to, go down the mountain! Shanhai Sect will not make it difficult for people! In the secular world, many wealthy families are willing to pay a lot of money to get a quota for a firewood-cutting outer disciple, and there is no way out!"
"It is our own choice to stay here! We must be responsible for our own choice!"
