Chapter 17 Moving!
The kitten did not comment on his words, choosing to look away.
At this moment it finally became clear that it was not the clothes that were hopeless, but the person's aesthetic taste.
After packing up the wooden boxes all night, Lin Zhusheng gave up on the spot, took out the tools and the excess wood, and stayed up all night to build a wooden box 2.0.
After reaching LV2, the system mall has been opened. Primary items such as wooden boxes, primary healing herbs and the like can be purchased without limit. Kitty tried his best to promote them, but he did not feel like a sucker for spending 50 silvers on a wooden box.
Although the wooden box I made myself is simple and rough, and looks shaky and may fall apart at any time, it is usable and free. Although it looks dangerous, it is actually quite sturdy.
It just doesn't look very good, which is a minor problem. As long as it can be used, it's fine. He made a box late at night, stuffing all the things that couldn't fit into the wooden box 1.0 into the 2.0. After he was done, he fell on the bed.
The next day was a nice day, the temperature was significantly higher than before, and when I woke up from bed the air was filled with the scent of spring flowers.
Thinking that the assessment had just ended yesterday and that it would take some time for the new school uniforms to be delivered, Lin Zhusheng got up in the morning and prepared some snacks.
He had originally intended to feed the steward, the teacher who was supposed to be in the academy today, and a few fellow students he knew as usual, but as he was leaning against the window waiting for the snacks to come out of the oven, he noticed something flying in the sky.
A big bird flew closer and you could see a little green. It was flapping its wings and flying very seriously.
He was originally just watching the big bird flying by, but the bird flew closer and closer, until it was close enough that he could clearly see its size and feathers, and then it began to circle and descend.
A large green bird, with something in its beak, flew straight to his door.
—and without any slowdown.
“…”
Realizing that something was wrong, Lin Zhusheng quickly climbed down from the windowsill and opened the door just before the bird's beak pierced through it.
The door opened, and a pointed bird's beak slid in perfectly, making a "whoosh" sound, and its feathers rubbed the floor cleanly, making it cleaner than ever before.
If it was half a second later, the door would have opened a hole big enough for him to show his entire face, allowing him to have a friendly communication with the nature outside while indoors.
After wiping the non-existent sweat from his forehead, Lin Zhusheng half squatted down and exhaled.
He recognized this kind of bird. He had seen it many times in the game before, and his inexplicably wise eyes remembered its appearance.
The bird is as blue as its color, and is called the Blue Bird. Tianzong often uses it as a good helper in transporting things. The bird may not look very smart, and in fact it is not very wise, but it is good at accomplishing its mission.
As for what happened on the way to the destination, such as the door that was almost pierced, that is another story and we will put it aside for now.
The wise bluebird put down what it was holding in its beak and called out "quack". A pocket, tightly wrapped, with the three words "Lin Zhusheng" written on it.
Lin Zhusheng took the pocket and took a look at it, then put it aside without opening it immediately. He remembered that there were still a few fruits in his backpack that he had picked when he went down the mountain yesterday, so he took them out and threw them into the bird's mouth.
The bluebird loved to eat the sweet and juicy fruit, and it quacked twice more.
Lin Zhusheng stood up by supporting himself on the floor, plucked the bird's head, patted it, and said, "It's gone, let's go."
The bluebird tilted its head to look at him twice, as if confirming something, then turned its head back, quacked, turned around and retreated, flapping its wings on the ground to create a gust of wind, and flew away amid the fallen leaves.
Putting aside the wise eyes for the moment, just looking at the back, the big blue bird is quite beautiful, with feathers of varying shades, like satin.
After guarding his own door and watching the blue bird leave, Lin Zhusheng withdrew his gaze, closed the door, and returned to the desk with the newly delivered package.
The only things delivered at this time are the necessities for the outer disciples. The kitten came over curiously and asked me to open it and take a look.
He opened it and the first thing that appeared was a white envelope. Inside the envelope was a handwritten notice, similar to an admission letter, signed by an elder from the outer sect.
The content of the letter was very simple, first expressing congratulations and then stating the reporting time. A very distinctive feature of the sect is its swift and decisive actions. The test and assessment results are all out within one day, and the same goes for these disciples. The results came out yesterday, and they have to move into the outer sect tomorrow.
He looked around a few more times, picked up the envelope and shook it again to make sure there was nothing else inside. He put it aside and continued to unpack.
Under the envelope was a jade plate, half the size of a palm, white and almost blue, with intricate patterns engraved on it, like some kind of flower, and it felt a little heavy in the hand.
[You have obtained: Tianzong Outer Disciple Order (Protection bonus 5%) x1]
5% protection, good stuff, Lin Zhusheng quickly put it away, temporarily put it in his sleeve, and then rummaged through the package.
What remains are two sets of school uniforms for daily activities, which are mountain mist colors, simple and light. More importantly, they also have protective bonuses and even come with built-in headbands.
The rags that had been changed several times before flashed through Lin Zhusheng's mind, and he smacked his lips: "What a great treatment."
It can be said that it is completely different from being a menial disciple. At least he doesn’t have to pull weeds every month.
The kitten stretched out its claws and touched his clothes twice. Although it didn't understand that the criterion for judging his treatment was whether he had a headband, it still took over the conversation and said, "After all, only outer disciples are considered official disciples of Tianzong."
A more accurate description of menial disciples is as reserve disciples for formal disciples, and they can only become formal disciples after passing the assessment. There must be a big difference between formal disciples and reserve disciples.
They still have to go to the mountains today, so it would not be appropriate to change into new school uniforms. Although Lin Zhusheng really likes the attribute bonuses that come with it, he temporarily puts the clothes and jade pendant into his backpack, washes his hands, takes the snacks from the kitchen table, and strolls out.
He might not come back often after leaving here, so he had to gain as much favorability as possible before that.
The manager's favorability had unknowingly become quite high. This time he brought his own snacks to improve his favorability, but ended up getting his favorability improved instead.
A good-for-nothing who had skipped classes and failed to complete his missions and was facing expulsion from the sect made a dramatic turnaround within half a month and successfully entered the outer sect. The steward was very moved and gave him a packet of seeds and several food recipes so that he could eat something good after entering the outer sect.
The seeds are very mixed, including common seeds and rare seeds. It depends on luck what you grow. A packet of growth liquid to promote seed growth is also included.
It completely touched the heart of a cyber farmer. Lin Zhusheng returned with a full load. His whole face was smiling, and he even had a smile on his face when he went back in the middle of the night.
“…”
The prospective farmer went to bed early and got up early, which was unusual. On the next day, when the kitten moved, when he woke up and opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that the person who was supposed to be lying on the bed was not there, and there was a vague figure by the window.
After rolling twice on the bed, it opened its eyes miraculously. Its round pupils turned into a pair of vertical pupils, and it looked up again.
The person standing by the window was changing clothes. His gray coat was placed on the table, and his green robe hung loosely. The white shirt underneath was close in color to his cold white skin, and it cast a blurry glow under the sunlight. The ends of his long hair hung on the table, winding and smooth.
The wind caused the outer robe to lift up slightly, making a slight rustling sound. The tassel of the green jade pendant hanging diagonally on the belt swayed slightly, brushing against the thin, cold white wrist.
Thinking that he had seen it wrong, the kitten lost his focus for a moment, and fell flat on his face while walking on all fours, landing on the bed with a big thump. Hearing the noise coming from here, the person standing by the window turned around and a familiar face appeared.
A very down-to-earth face, with a bit of a grin, and breathing in the air-conditioned air.
“…”
The ethereal feeling like a gauze disappeared in an instant, and the kitten covered its face with its paws and looked away reluctantly.
Lin Zhusheng got up early and was changing his clothes. He put them on carefully and pulled his hair carefully. When he turned his head, it was pulled again. He felt that his soul had ascended to heaven.
The new disciple uniform was quite different from the previous ones. The only thing in common was that he didn't know how to put it on and couldn't find the end after pulling it.
After trying for a while, he finally gave up. He tied his hair up with two hairbands and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
——Both the previous headband and the new headband have bonuses, so after making a choice, he decided to take both.
There is no difference between two and one, they both just make a mess when wrapped around your hair. This was considered the end of the cleaning. He bent down and patted the kitten lying motionless on the bed, saying, "Get up, it's time to go."
He woke up early and cleaned up the room, including the cooking table in the corner, which he packed up in his backpack and took away.
The kitten struggled to stand up, jumped off the bed, and looked at the empty room with only two wooden boxes left. It was the first time he saw what it meant to be completely empty, and his cat eyes widened.
After everything was packed up, they went out, leaving the room key in front of the door, and a steward would come to collect it later.
Although menial disciples and outer disciples are both in the outer peak, their usual range of activities is very different. Outer disciples are in more central locations, and part of their range of activities overlaps with that of inner disciples.
From the usual place of activities to Jingming Peak where the outer disciples are, the number of people on the road gradually decreases, and there is a long jade-white staircase before reaching the top.
There are three thousand steps, and the end extends to a higher place covered by mountain fog, so you can't see the end at a glance. Rather than suffer, Lin Zhusheng chose to take the small path.
Flowers are blooming halfway up the Jingming Peak. As you walk along the mountain, the wind is filled with the scent of peach blossoms.
Passing through a large peach grove, he pushed aside the drooping peach branches with one hand, casually plucked the petals from his eyelashes, and finally saw a row of houses behind the peach grove.
He lowered his head and took out the admission letter. He looked at the address name on it for a second longer. Then he raised his head and glanced at the house with white walls, gray tiles and a small courtyard at the end.
Patting the kitten that had fallen asleep in his clothes, he said, "We're here."
