Nan Ran, an overworked professional, finally got a chance for a vacation, but while touring Huangshan, she missed her footing and fell into a ravine. When she woke up again, she had become Nan Ran,...
Chapter 281: Punishment to Serving Hard Labor at the Hundred Beasts Peak
“Without rules, there will be no order.”
Nan Shu said calmly, "If everyone were like her, and would fight violence with violence when they get the point, what would the law enforcement team be for?"
"How do you manage the sect?"
"Don't riots happen all the time?"
"not to mention--"
Nan Shu glanced at Nan Ran and said, "If the opponent is strong, and we confront him recklessly like this, getting hurt is the least of our worries, but if we lose our lives, wouldn't it be too late to regret it?"
Several people were at a loss for words for a moment, but they still couldn't help but want to plead: "But..."
"What's more, as the current sect leader, I should take good care of the orphans of the previous sect leader, only then can I live up to the trust placed in me!"
Nan Ran looked up at the man who emphasized the word "trusted".
Did her father entrust this man to take care of her?
The tone is not quite like that.
"Nanran, do you accept the punishment?" When Nanran looked over, Nanshu also looked over and asked.
Nan Ran immediately lowered his brows and looked very obedient: "Sect Master is right, I have learned my lesson and am willing to accept the punishment."
I hope the punishment is not too severe, otherwise——
She won't stay here!
Run away!
Nan Shu saw through her thoughts at a glance, a smile that seemed both helpless and doting spread across the corners of his mouth. His voice was as clear as water: "Then I will punish you by sending you to the Hundred Beasts Peak to help take care of the young beasts there for fifteen days. It's a small punishment but a big warning."
Nan Ran was slightly stunned.
As one of the three outer sect peaks, Baishou Peak is responsible for arranging teaching for its disciples and is also responsible for the cultivation of demon beasts for the Beast Taming Sect.
Basically, every disciple who enters the outer sect will receive a low-level monster cub to better assist their learning progress.
Most of these young beasts come from the Hundred Beasts Peak.
Most of them were bred in Baishou Peak, and only a small part were captured from outside.
At the same time, this is also one of the main sources of income for the Beastmaster Sect.
After the great changes, many people awakened their talent for cultivation, possessed spiritual roots, and could absorb spiritual energy for cultivation.
However, his talent was limited, and it was impossible for him to enter a large sect like the Beast Taming Sect.
Not to mention the big sects, even some small forces and small sects would find it very difficult.
But life still has to go on, so most of these people became independent cultivators, and they would go alone or in teams to collect resources in some resource-rich but less dangerous forests on a daily basis.
Because of poor talent, the improvement of strength is inevitably slow.
Therefore, the monsters that have been cultivated by the contract and have certain combat capabilities become the best choice!
The Beast Taming Sect would sell the bred monster cubs or semi-adult monsters to these people.
Of course, the Beast Taming Sect will also provide higher-level monsters to those large families, or companion monsters or pet monsters.
Going to work at Baishou Peak?
Nan Ran thought about it and felt that he could still accept it.
"Disciple obeys."
She agreed obediently, and it seemed as if she had really learned her lesson and reflected on it.
Nan Shu got the expected result, so he didn't care about her "lip service".
He didn't say anything more.
Afterwards, people from the sect’s law enforcement team came to maintain order.
Hui Yao and others couldn't help but step forward to comfort Nan Ran.
"...Don't worry, we'll go back and ask the teaching elder for leave, and then we'll accompany you to serve in the Hundred Beasts Peak."
The others nodded.
Nan Ran blinked his eyes. "There's no need to mobilize so many people. We're just going to feed the monster cubs for a few days..."
What they said made her a little nervous.
Could it be that things were not as she thought, that the Hundred Beasts Peak was very difficult, and that Nanshu was deliberately trying to trick her because she knew nothing?
Otherwise, why would such a serious word as "serving forced labor" be used?
Hui Yao and the others shook their heads: "You think things are too easy and too simple!"
"If it was really just to feed the monster cubs, how could Hundred Beasts Peak be regarded as a scourge? Many disciples who were assigned there would rather complete tasks day and night to accumulate sect contribution points in order to transfer themselves to other peaks, even if it meant going to the lower three peaks!"
Nan Ran was completely confused this time.
"ah?"
So serious?
Seeing her clueless expression, Hui Yao, thinking of her past experience of being bound by a pure spirit, felt even more distressed. She patiently explained, "You were exempted from all the outer sect courses, so I'm afraid you don't understand a lot of information."
"This Hundred Beasts Peak, although it is one of the three outer sect peaks, is even more prestigious than the other two peaks because it breeds demonic beasts and also oversees many of the Beastmaster Sect's businesses in the secular world!"
"But the problem lies in breeding monsters!"
"It's not easy to breed that monster, let alone feed it!"
"If we're not careful and something goes wrong, hundreds of cubs will die!"
"Even if we can support them, the situation is not optimistic!"
"After all, there's still training to do! Hundred Beasts Peak not only has to ensure the survival of those monster cubs, but also improve their combat capabilities!"
Nan Ran roughly understood it. To put it simply, Baishou Peak, as a breeding place, requires certain skills!
but--
"What does this have to do with the disciples of Hundred Beasts Peak?"
It's impossible that the breeding work should be left to the disciples who have just entered the outer sect, right?
Can't it?
The Beast Taming Sect wouldn't be so careless, right?
But think about it, in her previous life, the world she lived in was just a huge makeshift team, and now... maybe it is the same.
Seeing that Nan Ran seemed to be thinking in the wrong direction, Hui Yao hurriedly explained, "...that wouldn't mean we would let newly promoted disciples, or outer disciples whose cultivation is still low and whose knowledge is not yet solid, rashly participate in the breeding of demon beasts."
"Professional things will naturally be done by professionals."
"However, even though these breeders at the Hundred Beasts Peak are all very professional beast taming elders, it is inevitable that some monster cubs will die."
And a huge number of monster cubs died.
In order to find out the cause of death of those monster cubs, it is inevitable to conduct certain dissections and studies on the monster corpses.
But there are limits to what one person can do.
"...So, helping to deal with the corpses of the demon beast cubs, responsible for dissecting, recording, researching, and even handling the corpses, will naturally be the responsibility of the disciples of the Hundred Beasts Peak."
Hui Yao hesitated to speak, as if she was worried that if she explained it in too much detail, the bloody content would scare Nan Ran. For a moment, she hesitated, not knowing whether she should continue.
Nan Ran already roughly understood it.
Simply put, Baishou Peak is a... veterinary training base!
During this learning process, it is inevitable to dissect the monster cubs, and many people cannot bear the pressure brought by such bloody scenes.
It is even more likely that in addition to teaching veterinary medicine, Baishou Peak will also be responsible for providing forensic examinations on monster beasts.
The scenes these disciples have to face may be even more terrifying.
That's why many disciples assigned to the Hundred Beasts Peak tried their best to escape.
Huiyao and the others had naturally heard about how the Hundred Beasts Peak was a hell on earth and how great the psychological impact was on people.
Of course they couldn't bear to let Nan Ran face such a scene alone.
What if you get scared silly?
In case I get scared and have a problem...
In just a few moments, they had already thought of all the bad things that might happen.
-
Hundred Beasts Peak.
"Peak Master, now that most of the disciples have left, do you think you should ask the Sect Master to hold an additional assessment to select some new disciples?"
Previously, the main purpose of the promotion assessment that Huiyao and Nanran teamed up to participate in was to recruit some new disciples for Baishou Peak.
Unexpectedly.
People were recruited, and the sect leader even allowed Baishou Peak to recruit an additional 100 disciples this year.
result--
"...What's the point of adding another promotion assessment?"
The head of the Hundred Beasts Peak said sullenly, "Don't you understand? The bottom line is, we can't keep anyone here!"
"If they can't leave if they come, what's the point of more people coming?"
That’s right, just yesterday, not only were all the 300 newly recruited disciples transferred to other peaks using various methods and means.
Some who could not accumulate enough contribution points to the sect would even leave the Beast Taming Sect and return home, rather than stay at the Hundred Beasts Peak and continue to participate in the breeding work.
And all the disciples who were still alive before were completely wiped out this time.
Now, only a few of his direct disciples remain.
"Then what should we do?" The disciple said with a worried look on his face. "We've tried everything we can think of. Even if we tripled the cultivation resources, those people still wouldn't stay."
How would the master of Baishou Peak know what to do?
He is worried too!
But I can't think of a solution no matter how worried I am.
Just as he was frowning and looking worried, the second disciple of the master of Baishou Peak hurried in: "Master, there are a few outer disciples outside. They said they were arranged by the sect master."
"Did the Sect Master arrange for this?"
The master of Baishou Peak suddenly became excited: "Quick, please come in!"
This is really timely relief!
He is short of manpower here!
Nan Ran and his companions were brought in by the second disciple with strange looks on their faces.
Why does it feel like this person's smile is a little weird?
It seems like flattery, but also like seeing a savior.
Can--
Aren’t you here to do labor?
Meng Duanyue and the others also came along.
I was just worried that Nan Ran would be bullied at the Beast Summit, so I came here to help hold things up and act as a backer.
Given the status and position of her master, Elder Jiarong, even the masters of the three inner sect peaks would have to give him some respect.
Not to mention the outer gate!
but--
Things seemed to be different from what they imagined.
Isn’t the master of Baishou Peak too enthusiastic?
"Are you the ones the Sect Master has arranged to help? Let's get going now! We have a lot of things to do, and we really can't delay any longer..."
Everyone was confused.
It was Nan Ran who came to her senses the fastest and told everyone the whole story of why she came here to perform labor service.
When the head of Baishou Peak heard her say she would only stay for fifteen days, he looked regretful and said in a melancholy voice, "Only fifteen days..."
Nan Ran: It’s a bit scary. What’s going on?
But the master of Baishou Peak has probably been hit by the facts too many times, so he is very accepting.
After feeling uncomfortable for a moment, he hurriedly called for people to follow him again.
If it can be used for fifteen days, then it’s fifteen days!
only--
"You just said that the Sect Master punished you to come to Hundred Beasts Peak for fifteen days of hard labor. So who are these people?"
"We're here to help!"
Meng Duanyue said this, and then was about to use his status as a master to ask the master of the Hundred Beasts Peak to take better care of Nan Ran, and not to let Nan Ran do all the dirty and tiring work alone.
Just now, as they walked along the way, they all saw that the Hundred Beasts Peak was surprisingly deserted, without a single disciple to be seen!
They searched for a long time before they found the second disciple who had just led them here deep in a cage.
Unexpectedly, the master of Baishou Peak became even more excited when he heard that they were there to help, and without saying a word, he invited them to work together.
"That's great! Come on, come on, all of you!"
With so many people working day and night for fifteen days, they can solve a lot of problems!
As for what happens in the future, let’s talk about it later!
Everyone came in in a daze, and followed the master of the Hundred Beasts Peak and left in a daze.
"Your main task today is to clean up the monster carcasses in the cages here. Besides cleaning and burning the carcasses, you also need to perform a detailed autopsy on each monster cub and keep records. Ideally, you can also analyze the cause of death!"
The leader of the Hundred Beasts Peak quickly and decisively assigned tasks to everyone.
Everyone was still confused.
"ah?"
No? They are not veterinarians!
How to analyze the cause of death of these monster cubs?
However, before they could say or ask anything, the Lord of the Hundred Beasts Peak had already left in a hurry.
Only a distant echo remained: "This Peak Master still needs to go clean up the other cages with the others. I'll leave everything here to you!"
Everyone: ...
"No? He just left like that? Left us all here? Trusted us so much..."
How could these people analyze the cause of death of a monster?
It’s not that he doesn’t know anything at all, at least Nangong Chui still understands medical principles.
They also learned a small amount of knowledge about monster breeding, which naturally included disease treatment.
But that is just knowing some basic medical principles.
Analyzing the reasons for the mass death of monster cubs is a bit far-fetched, right?
"Since we're here and the Peak Master has assigned us a task, let's get started."
"Yes! We may not be able to analyze the cause of death of the monster cubs, but we can still clean out these cages, burn these monster carcasses, and conduct autopsy records."
Huiyao and a few others quickly rolled up their sleeves and prepared to work.
Meng Duanyue and others naturally couldn't just stand by and watch.
Nan Ran did try to persuade her a few times. After all, these tasks should have been done by her, but now she had implicated many of her senior sisters.
"How long will it take you to do this alone? There's strength in numbers. Besides, I see that Hundred Beasts Peak is really short of manpower."
Meng Duanyue pondered and said, "But we are free now. If we can help you, we can also help our fellow disciples!"
After they returned from the Water Monster Forest, they exchanged the resources they had obtained. Not only did they earn a large amount of sect contribution points, but they also gained a lot of cultivation resources.
The inner sect does not need to attend classes regularly like the outer sect, and the disciples can practice freely.
In addition, there is no rush to join the special training team, as there is still a long time before the registration time.
They all plan to have a good rest during this period.
"I see there's a big problem here..."
