Chapter 20 A lot of money
At that time in the square, Gu Chi heard several of his fellow disciples say: "The top ten places in the sect competition have already been reserved by the powerful children of the Suzaku and Azure Dragon halls. It is basically unrealistic for outer disciples to take the top spot."
At that time, she scoffed at such remarks, thinking that those people were just jealous of the rich. She never expected that such a thing was actually true and was no longer an unknown secret.
Gu Chi remembered a sentence he had seen on the Internet before: Why can't my three generations of business compare to your ten years of hard study?
Although it may make people feel uncomfortable, the fact is indeed like that. The family foundation accumulated by three generations cannot be easily shaken or surpassed by you studying hard for ten years.
"By the way, Senior Sister Hua Xin, you seem to be from the Qinglong Hall, right? In that case, the family behind you should also be..."
Le Huaxin interrupted, saying, "They're only slightly better off than ordinary people. They can't compare to the aristocratic families that have long been deeply rooted in the Qian Kingdom."
Gu Chi didn't have the chance to say the phrase "rich woman seeking support" so he could only change the subject and say, "Senior Sister Hua Xin, didn't you sign up for this year's sect competition?"
Le Huaxin said, "I've signed up."
Gu Chi asked, "Then why didn't you go up and fight them? Or did they fight yesterday, and I left too early and didn't see it?"
Le Huaxin chuckled and said, "I'm an inner disciple, one of the top 1,000 recommended. I haven't had a chance to play yet, so I can only watch them shine from below."
Is this Versailles?
Gu Chi was speechless for a moment, and he didn't want to continue chatting with her. He thought to himself, "Comparison is the thief of anger. I'd better continue selling my skewers."
At this time, a burly man nearly two meters tall walked over, held up two fingers, and said, "Give me two skewers to try first."
This man's upper body was naked, his muscles were like coiled dragons, his bronze skin gleamed with a metallic luster, and he was full of power.
Gu Chi recognized this person. He had seen him fight yesterday. He had a very beautiful and cold-looking lady in a close fight. It was a duel between masculinity and femininity. Unfortunately, Gu Chi left before he could finish watching the whole thing. He didn't know who would win or lose in the end.
Gu Chi was horrified when he noticed that this senior brother had sword wounds on his face and chest.
It's obvious that this man is a physical cultivator, who focuses on tempering his limbs and every inch of flesh and blood.
The man who had duelled with Senior Brother Du Yu the day before, using talismans to stimulate his physical strength and strengthen his body, was able to fight Senior Brother Du Yu back and forth. What about a true physical cultivator? Who could possibly hurt him?
"My dear brother, I have lamb kidneys, lamb spears, tiger spears... These things are full of yang energy. I recommend you to have some of them. I guarantee that you will feel very powerful after eating them!" Gu Chi said seriously with a thumbs up.
Lamb kidneys are alright, but what about the sheep spear and tiger spear? Why are they considered to be a yang-boosting tonic?
Le Huaxin twirled her hair with her hands, tilting her head as she pondered. After a while, she reacted. Her fair and pretty face turned red as an apple, and she snorted angrily, "Junior Sister Gu! How can you, a girl,…"
It was difficult to say, she couldn't pronounce those names.
Gu Chi smiled and said, "Senior Sister Hua Xin, don't overthink it. These things are indeed described in medical books as tonics that boost yang energy."
As an open-minded modern person, she really didn't think there was anything difficult to talk about.
"In that case, give me twenty skewers each!"
"Alright! Then I'll take this opportunity to congratulate you on your success in the upcoming matches!"
Anyone who hears nice words will feel happy. The burly man threw a bag full of gold crystals and copper coins in front of the big black dog and said generously, "No need to change if there are more."
Le Huaxin on the side simply turned her head away, not listening or thinking about it.
"By the way, Senior Brother, I watched your competition yesterday. Who was the sister you fought against?"
"Her name is Ye Yujing, and she works in the White Tiger Hall." said the burly man.
His name is Wei Bao, and he also works in the White Tiger Hall. He joined the Heming Sect two years earlier than Ye Yujing.
"The duel yesterday..."
"I lost."
Wei Bao said frankly that he did not feel ashamed of losing to a woman. He was not as skilled as the other person and lost, so there was nothing wrong with admitting it.
Wei Bao added, "She has extensive combat experience and is able to calmly handle every detail during a fight. Every move she makes is the optimal solution based on the current situation. This is something I lack. I am deeply convinced that I lost to someone like her."
In the next few days, Gu Chi took the big black dog to set up a stall in the square every day, making a lot of money by selling at low prices and making a lot of money.
The elders of Heming Sect saw it, but didn't say much.
The Spiritual Medicine Garden is a secret place that has been opened up separately. It is full of spiritual energy. The birds and beasts living in the surrounding mountains reproduce at an astonishing rate. Basically, several disciples need to be sent there to clear them out every four or five years. Now that Gu Chi has done this, they don't have to worry about it.
"You can eat any other animals you want, but our Heming Sect is named after the crane. You are not allowed to have any ideas about any crane in this sect, understand?"
This was the advice given by an elder to Gu Chi when he came to buy skewers, to prevent her from making a big mistake one day and not being able to eat the skewers.
On the fourth day, the sect competition finally ended. Wei Bao stopped at the top 1,000, while Du Yu and Ye Yujing, who were favored by countless people in the outer sect and regarded as the face of the sect, barely made it into the top 500.
As for Le Huaxin, she eventually made it into the top 100 based on her personal ability, despite being ranked in the top 1,000 by recommendation.
Finally, the elders of the sect distributed rewards and gave speeches to encourage the disciples. What they said was nothing more than nonsense about keeping up the good work and that the future would definitely be bright.
On the way back, Gu Chi and the big black dog couldn't stop laughing.
I could actually see the word "obscene" on the faces of the girl and the black dog.
"Lao Hei, we made a lot of money this time thanks to the traffic from the sect competition!" Gu Chi couldn't stop smiling.
With the help of the traffic from this sect competition, they earned a total of more than 10,000 gold crystals and copper coins.
"It has to be Sister Gu Chi!" The big black dog also grinned. Now it is also a rich dog with a lot of money!
"Let's come back next year! Then we can come up with some new tricks and make a lot of money from him, how about that?"
"it is good!"
"Let's go, let's go back to farming first."
A man and a dog trotted along, and their laughter could be heard from the mountains from time to time.
After returning to the medicine garden, they first began to take care of the medicine field, and then quietly picked a few plants of Qigong grass that could be used to make Qigong pills. After cultivating the seeds, they planted them back.
