Chapter 247: Inspecting Disciples
The sun gradually set in the west, but the number of tourists in Jiuxuan Sect did not decrease, and the hotels near the sect gate were full of people.
The volunteer team composed of players has been replaced by a new group of people. The volunteers who have slowed down gathered together to eat and discuss the matter of Shen Yijin accepting disciples.
"Have you heard? Today, four college students were lucky enough to be accepted as apprentices by Sister Shen!"
"I heard about it. Hey, I thought Sister Shen chose her apprentice based on who worked hard, and she even found a physical job for me. I worked in the kitchen all day, and the neighbors were jealous... If I had known, I would have found an easier job!"
"You can't say that. Although we were not accepted as disciples by the sect master, haven't you discovered that the Jiuxuan Sect is very special? I worked hard for a day and survived. I am a little tired, but my body feels more comfortable than ever before. I don't feel the old joint pains anymore."
As soon as these words were spoken, the volunteers who were eating stopped what they were doing immediately. No one spoke anymore, and everyone began to carefully feel the changes in themselves.
After this person's reminder, more and more people found that they were different from before. Some became stronger, some had less old ailments, and some had more active minds.
"It's true! In fact, as soon as I entered Jiuxuan Sect, I knew this place was special. The air here is different from the outside!"
"Hey, the food here is different, the quality is much higher than outside! I run a restaurant, you may not be able to tell, but I deal with ingredients frequently, and I can tell at a glance that this dish is not ordinary. It looks ordinary, but it tastes delicious!" As he said that, the man took a few big bites of the food, as if to show that he was not lying.
The volunteers discovered the benefits of staying in Jiuxuan Sect before the tourists. Those who thought that Shen Yijin had finished recruiting disciples and did not want to stay to work any longer immediately changed their minds and decided to stay in Jiuxuan Sect for as many days as possible.
Chen Yijin was originally worried that after the first day of high-pressure work, some volunteers would run away, but unexpectedly, almost all of them stayed.
The corners of her mouth rose unconsciously. Shan Shunan, who came to ask Chen Yijin for advice with a manual on spiritual plant maintenance, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master, has anything good happened in our Jiuxuan Sect?"
"I guess so. It's my free labor... Well, the players who come to participate in the offline activities are all actively participating in the offline activities. It seems that the game is well made and everyone is working hard for the special rewards." Chen Yijin has not yet adapted to the fact that he has accepted an apprentice. He thought the person asking the question was Nan Mingcheng and almost let the cat out of the bag.
Shan Shunan's mouth twitched. It seemed that in the eyes of his new master, this group of volunteers were just free labor that came to his doorstep.
However, Shan Shunan had already learned about the specific situation of Jiuxuan Sect yesterday. If the players hadn't come to help, it would have been extremely difficult for Jiuxuan Sect to receive so many tourists.
Chen Yijin turned to look at his newly accepted senior disciple: "Why did you come to see me at this time? Aren't you out with your fellow disciples to entertain the tourists?"
Last night, Jin Huihui and a few others came to her to become her apprentices, so Shan Shunan had three more junior brothers and sisters on the day of becoming her apprentices.
The secret books that Jin Huihui and others received from Chen Yijin were similar to those from Shan Shunan, except for the lack of books related to operations. Generally speaking, these apprentices were all at the same starting line.
On the second day of Jiuxuan Sect's opening to the public, the number of tourists increased instead of decreased. Shen Yijin was ready to blur her own face and go out to entertain the guests. Seeing that Shan Shunan did not go out to work, she was a little unhappy. Shan Shunan lowered his head a little embarrassedly, pointed to a place in the book and said, "Today I am responsible for taking tourists to experience growing vegetables, but I only learned relevant knowledge yesterday. I am afraid that I will tell the tourists wrong things, so I came to ask the master for advice."
Not only volunteers but also tourists are being used for free labor.
The original fruits and vegetables in the sect are not enough to sustain the daily consumption of tourists. Now no one has time to farm, so they can only let tourists participate in it as an experience project.
Fortunately, there is a spirit gathering formation in the Jiuxuan Sect, so the fruits and vegetables can be harvested soon after being planted in the fields.
After listening to Shan Shunan, Shen Yijin's anger subsided a lot. She patiently explained the contents of the book to Shan Shunan, and then pushed him out to practice.
Shan Shunan was worried that he might mess up and wanted to ask a few more questions.
Chen Yijin waved his hand and let him explore on his own: "Tourists can just plant whatever they want in the ground. The soil of our Jiuxuan Sect can support it. Everything planted can grow into food. You don't have to worry too much. If you have anything else, come and ask me. The master will lead you to the door, but cultivation depends on yourself. Only what you figure out on your own is yours. Young man, you have to keep working hard!"
Shan Shunan watched Chen Yijin's figure gradually walk away, and once again felt like he was on a pirate ship.
After Chen Yijin left, she did not become a hands-off boss.
She blurred her own face and took turns helping out at each stall, while also checking to see if the personalities of the disciples she favored were suitable.
After a round, Shen Yijin was very satisfied with the performance of his future disciples.
She originally wanted to wait a few more days until all the tourists went to work before announcing the candidates for disciples, but since few volunteers left yesterday, she planned to announce the list little by little starting from today.
So, when the volunteers were changing shifts, some volunteers who had just finished work and were able to rest received text messages from the game officials.
After reading the contents of the letter, the person who got the disciple quota jumped up happily: "Great! Sister Shen accepted me as a disciple!"
Fearing that the message they sent would be withdrawn the next second, these people did not even have time to wait until the meal was over, and hurried to find Shen Yijin and became his apprentice on the spot.
Chen Yijin explained the precautions as usual, and told them that they could give up if they couldn't accept it. She didn't force anyone to become her disciple, but without exception, no one chose to leave.
Then, all the new disciples who joined the Jiuxuan Sect received the same basic secrets as Shan Shunan and his companions.
After reading the names on each secret book, the new disciples were dumbfounded, and their feelings were similar to Shan Shunan's when he got these books.
After the five-day holiday, the number of tourists in Jiuxuan Sect decreased, and most of the volunteers left to go back to work. As for the disciples who had worshipped Shen Yijin as their master, some had to go back to work, while others stayed and were responsible for the daily operations of the sect while studying the basic secrets.
The first one to finish learning was Shan Shunan. He did not prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination and put all his attention on learning the secrets. He soon mastered the contents of the spiritual plant maintenance manual and began to be responsible for the planting and distribution of spiritual plants on the special department's purchase list.
