On a carriage heading to Xinyuefang City
“Brother, I don’t know your name yet…”
“My name is Song Jie.”
“Oh, brother Song Jie~” What about the dog in front that can only drive? “
“It’s called the Golden Horn…
“In addition, Golden Horn is not a dog, but a unicorn beast.”
“Hmm, Jin Jiao is also very good, he can drive a car.
“Big brother, can A’nan learn spells like big brother in the future?”
“When you grow up, you’ll know if you can learn spells.”
“That’s it~ Grandma really wants to grow up quickly.”
……
In the blink of an eye, several days passed.
After more than half a month of long journey, Xinyuefang City finally appeared in Song Jie’s sight.
Sitting on the carriage and looking at the familiar city from a distance, Song Jie suddenly felt at ease.
“Finally home.”
Song Jie smiled softly.
This trip, originally I just wanted to send Shi Ning to the Alchemy Sect to participate in the introductory trial, but I didn’t expect that so many things would happen later.
First, he learned that the Alchemy Sect was going to hold a “Conference on Immortal Alchemy”, which made him temporarily change his return plan.
Later, he obtained a “Lingyuan Immortal Fruit” at the “Elixir Forum”, which allowed him to directly save a level of cultivation time.
It can be said to be Song Jie’s biggest gain from this trip.
Of course, the sermon given by the leader of the Alchemy Sect later also made him gain a lot.
However, the value of the content preached by the leader of the Alchemy Sect requires a long period of time to be discovered.
The value of “Lingyuan Immortal Fruit” is currently what Song Jie needs most urgently.
After all, with his attribute panel, he hardly has to worry about getting into a bottleneck in the alchemy path.
The content of the lectures given by the leader of the Alchemy Sect can only be regarded as the icing on the cake for him, helping him to understand the alchemy way faster and thus improve his proficiency in various spiritual elixirs.
But the “Lingyuan Immortal Fruit” is different. It can directly raise a level of cultivation realm. For Song Jie, whose cultivation progress is slow, it is definitely a timely help.
So in comparison, Song Jie still thinks that the “Lingyuan Immortal Fruit” is more important.
In addition, Song Jie also used this “Elixir Discussion Conference” to get acquainted with some Taoist friends and gained a lot of fame.
These will give Song Jie a certain amount of help in his future journey of cultivating immortality.
In addition to the gains from the “Elixir Forum”, the appearance of the demon and the secret behind “Xuyuan” also made Song Jie a little more worried about the future of the world of immortality.
However, he is still too weak now.
It was not his turn to worry about the matter between the demon and “Xu Yuan”, nor was he qualified to worry about it.
Therefore, Song Jie did not pay attention to this matter for the time being, so as not to cause more troubles to himself.
The above are all his gains from the Alchemy Sect.
On the way back, Song Jie unexpectedly took in a little girl and named her “Chen Siyao”.
At this time, hearing Song Jie say “I’m finally back,” Chen Siyao, who was staying in the carriage, immediately stuck her little head out and looked at Fangshi, which was vaguely visible in the distance.
“Is that the Xinyuefang City that big brother mentioned?”
Chen Siyao looked forward with expectation.
These days, Song Jie has shared with her some basic common sense in the world of immortality.
She also knew that in the world of immortality, those who could cast spells like Song Jie were not the immortals in the rumors, but people who cultivated immortality, also known as monks.
In Xinyuefang City where Song Jie settled, there was a group of monks living there.
Chen Siyao has been looking forward to the Xinyuefang City that Song Jie mentioned for a long time.
Now, the Xiuxianfang City that I have longed for is finally here.
“Yes.” Song Jie nodded and said, “The one in front is Xinyuefang City.”
Chen Siyao smiled and said happily: “The streets are full of monks’ markets, I’m so looking forward to it~”
She knew that she would have to live in that Xinyuefang City for a long time to come.
Not long after, the carriage slowly drove into Xinyuefang City.
Looking at the shops lined on both sides of the street and the monks coming and going.
Chen Siyao looked left and right excitedly.
I wish I could have more eyes so I could take care of all directions at the same time.
She had lived in a small village since she was a child. When she came to Xinyuefang City for the first time, she felt as if she had arrived in a big city.
There are novel things everywhere, and there are too many questions that I want to ask Song Jie who is driving.
But because the question was so big, Chen Siyao didn’t know what question to ask first.
After spending this period of time with Song Jie, Chen Siyao received a lot of knowledge about cultivating immortals.
At this time, they came to Fangshi where the streets were full of monks. Chen Siyao seemed to have temporarily forgotten those sad past.
Song Jie sat aside and continued to drive the carriage towards his residence without saying anything.
Soon, the carriage stopped at the house where Song Jie rented.
“Get off the car, we’re home.”
Song Jie smiled slightly and jumped out of the carriage first, then raised his hand to hug Chen Siyao out of the carriage.
Given Chen Siyao’s age and height, it was still somewhat difficult to climb out of the carriage entirely by herself.
The last person to get off the bus was naturally the Golden Horn.
With just a slight jump, the golden horn landed on the ground gracefully.
“The Golden Horn is so powerful!” Chen Siyao clapped her little hands and exclaimed.
After receiving Chen Siyao’s admiring gaze, Jin Jiao unconsciously raised his head and put on a proud look.
“Brother, will this beautiful big house be Yaoyao’s home in the future?”
In the past, she never thought that one day she would be able to live in such a beautiful big house.
It was more beautiful than any house in their village.
Of course, if possible, she still hopes that her father, mother, and everyone in the village can survive and continue to live in that village.
It’s a pity that such a scene can only appear in sleep in the future.
“Yes, you will live here from now on.”
Song Jie nodded and then tied the horse.
Chen Siyao’s big eyes suddenly turned red and she whispered, “Thank you, big brother~”
Song Jie smiled and touched Chen Siyao’s head. Without saying anything, he stepped forward and opened the courtyard door.
I haven’t been back for nearly two months and some weeds have grown in the yard.
Song Jie first brought Chen Siyao to the guest room, then pointed at this room and said, “From now on, you and Jin Jiao can sleep in this room together.
“That little den is where Golden Horn sleeps, and that bed is yours.
“I’ll make the bed for you in a moment.”
The house he rented had only one master room and one guest room that could be used for sleeping.
With Jin Jiao by her side, Chen Siyao would not feel lonely at night, nor would she be afraid of sleeping alone in the same room.
“Yeah~” Chen Siyao nodded and said thank you to Song Jie again.
Then he took Chen Siyao to visit the entire house and introduced to her the purpose of each room.
After getting familiar with the whole house, Song Jie saw that it was already getting late, so he stopped going to the store and decided to go there tomorrow.
“Let’s go out and have a good meal tonight. It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten spiritual food from Lingshan Pavilion.”
“Ouch~”
When he heard that he was going to Lingshan Pavilion to eat spiritual food, Jinjiao was the first to howl with joy.
Chen Siyao on the side looked puzzled and said: “Spiritual food? Is it delicious?”
“Hahaha, of course it’s delicious.” Song Jie smiled and said, “However, spiritual food is something only monks can eat.
“Yao Yao is not a monk yet, and she is so young. She can only eat a little spiritual food, not too much.”
“Yeah, yeah, Yaoyao listen to big brother.”
Chen Siyao nodded obediently.
So Song Jie took Jin Jiao and Chen Siyao out and went straight to Lingshan Pavilion.
Of course, before going out, Song Jie took out some fodder from the storage bag and placed it in front of the horse, letting it eat by itself.
When he bought the horse and carriage, Song Jie originally planned to sell them when he returned to Xinyuefang City.
But because he plans to go to the original owner’s hometown in a few days, he still needs to use this carriage.
So I kept the carriage for the time being and planned to sell the carriage after visiting the original owner’s hometown.
……
“Master Song, I haven’t seen you here for a long time. Have you been traveling far away during this time?”
The waiter at Lingshan Pavilion saw Song Jie coming in and immediately greeted him warmly.
Song Jie smiled and said: “I went to the Alchemy Sect to attend a gathering of alchemists some time ago. As soon as I come back, I will be here with you.”
For these laymen, Song Jie didn’t go into too much detail, he just talked about it in one sentence.
The waiter at the shop also knew what to ask and what not to ask.
He immediately led the way and took Song Jie to the box he usually used.
Because he brought an extra Chen Siyao with him this time, Song Jie not only ordered food for himself and Jin Jiao, but also asked the waiter to prepare some spiritual food with extremely low spiritual energy content that could be eaten by children.
Among the guests that Lingshan Pavilion usually receives, there are also many who bring their children to eat here.
As for spiritual food that children can eat, Lingshan Pavilion naturally has many dishes, all of which are delicious spiritual food with very low spiritual energy content and will not have any adverse effects on children.
After recording the food ordered by Song Jie, the waiter stepped back and helped Song Jie close the door of the box.
Chen Siyao was sitting in this luxuriously decorated box with eyes full of expectation.
Although she didn’t know exactly what spiritual food was, Song Jie said that if it was delicious, it must be delicious.
While Chen Siyao was thinking about spiritual food, she asked, “Big brother, why did the big brother just now call me Alchemist Song?”
Song Jie told Chen Siyao his name once, but Chen Siyao still kept Song Jie’s name firmly in his heart.
She knew that Song Jie’s name was not Alchemist Song, so she was a little curious about others calling Song Jie Alchemist Song.
Song Jie smiled slightly and said, “Well, it seems that I haven’t told you about the profession of cultivating immortals.
“A monk only needs to practice cultivation, but also has a profession of cultivating immortals.
“Each monk must earn spiritual stones through his or her own profession of cultivating immortals to support his daily life and cultivation needs.
“My profession of cultivating immortals is to be an alchemist…”
Taking advantage of the time when the spiritual food had not yet arrived, Song Jie began to spread common sense to Chen Siyao about the profession of cultivating immortals.
Because Chen Siyao showed intelligence beyond that of children of the same age, Song Jie also consciously wanted to train her.
If you want to expand your business scale and develop your own power in the future, you will definitely not be able to do it alone.
He must also have a trusted helper to assist him and help him with some chores.
Song Jie observed during this period and found that Chen Siyao was quite suitable to be trained as his first right-hand man.
Therefore, when faced with Chen Siyao’s problems, Song Jie took the trouble to answer her questions.
Not long after, the waiters at the shop brought out the spiritual food ordered by Song Jie one after another.
The moment Chen Siyao took the first bite of spiritual food, her eyes narrowed uncontrollably, showing a happy expression.
“It’s delicious~”Brother, this spiritual food is delicious~”
When she was in the village, she mostly ate coarse grains, and she could only eat fish during festivals.
Following Song Jie these days, she ate game every day. She thought that game was already a delicacy in the world.
Unexpectedly, the spiritual food in front of me was ten times more delicious than those game meats.
It turns out that the food that cultivators eat is so delicious, which is so happy.
Chen Siyao took bite after bite, chewing her share of spiritual food carefully.
Because it was so delicious, she was reluctant to eat it too fast. She was afraid of the delicious food and finished it in one go.
Seeing how careful Chen Siyao was when eating spiritual food, Song Jie couldn’t help but smile.
After enjoying the delicious spiritual food, the sky outside slowly began to get dark.
Song Jie did not go anywhere else and returned to his home with Jin Jiao and Chen Siyao.
He turned to look at the house next door, and saw that the lights were already on.
Obviously, Shi Lei and his wife had returned from the shop.
Song Jie almost didn’t think much and immediately decided to go and visit.
He is back, but if he doesn’t go to visit, it will be somewhat unjustifiable in terms of human relations.
So, Song Jie took Jin Jiao and Chen Siyao to the door of the courtyard next door and gently shook the door bowl a few times.
At the same time, he shouted loudly: “Brother, sister-in-law, I’m back.”
Shi Lei and his wife inside the house heard Song Jie’s shouts and quickly opened the courtyard door.
“Hahaha, Brother Song, you are indeed back.
“When I came home just now, I saw a carriage parked in front of your courtyard, so I knew you must be back.
“As expected, hahaha…”
Not to mention how happy Shi Lei was to see Song Jie back safe and sound.
“When I went to the Alchemy Sect this time, I found that the Alchemy Sect was going to hold the ‘Elixir Discussion Conference’. As an alchemist, I naturally couldn’t miss this grand event, so I delayed it for some time.”
Song Jie briefly explained the reason for his late return.
When Shi Lei heard this, he immediately asked with concern: “So, what did Brother Song gain from this ‘Elixir Discussion Conference’?”
Li Caiwei on the side glanced at the little girl who was hiding behind Song Jie and sticking half of her head out to observe them.
Covering his mouth and chuckling, he said: “It seems that Brother Song has gained a lot this time, and he even brought a little girl back.
“Won’t you introduce it to us?”
As she said that, Li Caiwei winked playfully.
