Another world: I loaded the career panel

Chapter 111 109. Discussion
Rumble!
There was a deafening thunder.

Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of rapid rain hitting the eaves.

In the dark and small house, Raymond lay on his back on the small bed in the small corner with a lifeless look on his face, staring blankly at the blackened roof.

Just two months ago, he was lying on the sofa, cracking melon seeds, drinking Feizhai Happy Water, and watching videos comfortably.

As a young man who just wanted to sleep peacefully, Raymond stayed at the construction site for three months after graduation and then decisively quit his job.

Unexpectedly, I later traveled to a different world, stayed there for two months, and ended up traveling here again.

"It's really unnecessary..." Raymond could only sigh helplessly in the end.

According to some of the memories he had absorbed from the original owner, the original owner of this body had the same name as him, also named Raymond.

And he is also the immortal cultivator mentioned in Xianxia novels!
But... they are the lowest level of casual cultivators.

Not only was the original owner not a genius in cultivating immortals, he was also the type with extremely poor qualifications.

"According to memory, the original owner of this body's cultivation aptitude is the Four Spiritual Roots, which are known as pseudo-spiritual roots. He has been practicing for 12 years. He is 36 years old this year, and he has only reached the third level of Qi training." Raymond covered his hands. My face felt so helpless.

This level of cultivation can be said to be at the lowest level even among casual cultivators.

From the memory of this body, what Raymond felt the most was humiliation and numbness, as well as fear and uneasiness!

If given the choice, Raymond would rather return to his own world.

"I don't know if I can go back if I commit suicide now..." Raymond was a little eager to try, but in the end he still didn't have the courage.

Raymond still cherished his own life very much.

Now even if I die, it is still life.

Don't dare to try it easily and risk your life as an experiment.

There were all kinds of distracting thoughts in his mind. I didn't know how long I lay there. When Raymond came back to his senses, the rain had stopped.

"Go out and see how different this world of cultivating immortals is."

Raymond wanted to see what this world looked like.

Get up from the bed and kick away the metal wine bottles and glasses scattered on the ground to make room for your feet.

Ignoring the tinkling sound behind him, Raymond stepped out and walked towards the door.

creak.

As the door opened, the dark room couldn't help but become a little brighter.

Raymond took a deep breath, and the fresh air after the rain mixed with a hint of earth flowed into his chest, soothing his originally irritable mood.

Looking up, there are a large number of self-built houses, large or small, tall or short, scattered in a messy way.

Can't see the end.

At first glance, many of them were built haphazardly, and they could only be said to have the function of living and sheltering from wind and rain. Some of them looked shaky, as if they would fall down in the next moment.

Raymond looked back at his house, which was also in a mess and rickety. It was not much better than those houses.

"What kind of broken house is there for dogs? Dogs won't even live in it!" Raymond was furious and said angrily.

clap clap clap!
The soles of the shoes made a sound in the mud after the rain.

Raymond had just closed the door when he heard a voice coming from behind him.

When he turned around, he saw a tall man wearing a brown bunt and a fierce look walking towards him with sinister eyes.

Obviously, he came to see Raymond.

And it's definitely not a good thing.

The vicious man came to Raymond in a few steps.

Looking at the ferocious man in front of him who was a head taller than him, staring at him with eyes that seemed to be murderous, Raymond felt as if his whole body had shrunk in size.

I couldn't help but take a few steps back, and finally pressed against the door, unable to retreat.

Raymond swallowed a mouthful of saliva, pretended to be calm in his heart, and tried his best to smile:

"This good man, what do you want from me?"

"Ha." The ferocious man glanced at Raymond with a joking look and said: "Friend Liu Dao, don't forget about the spirit stone. Otherwise, don't blame us when the time comes. Hum..."

The ferocious man said the last words with a threatening low voice, then turned and left.

Lingshi?

Raymond was stunned for a moment, and then the corresponding memory fragment flashed in his mind.

Soon, he figured out the ins and outs.

It turns out that the shantytown where Raymond and his friends live is attached to the city called "Sishui Fang".

Although he built the house and no one takes care of the land, as long as you live in this shantytown, the city will collect rent from you.

And this is something that everyone living in this shanty town takes for granted.

Shanty towns belong to Fangshi's sphere of influence, and Fangshi was built by the foundation-building families, so not many people dare to make trouble here.

Raymond's monthly rent is one spiritual stone.

But even so, Raymond couldn't come up with this month's rent.

If you can't pay the rent, you can't continue to rent here. As for living outside, Raymond would never dare.

Not to mention monsters, even vicious people who come out to rob the road at night can kill him!

Human life is like a mustard.

As a last resort, Raymond could only find someone to borrow the spirit stone, but how could a rotten person like Raymond have friends.

In desperation, he could only borrow a spiritual stone from someone similar to the loan shark in his previous life.

After seven days, two spirit stones must be returned to the other party.

And these two days are the deadline to return the spirit stone.

Understanding the whole story made Raymond feel despair.

Because now, let alone two spirit stones, he can't even get out the residue of the spirit stones!
Casual practitioners in shantytowns can generally be divided into three categories:
One is to make a living by hunting monsters. These people are all mid-level and high-level monks. They live a life of licking blood with the tip of a knife. They have experienced hundreds of battles and are good at fighting. Sometimes they also play a guest role in robbery.

This type of people, in the entire shanty town, can be said to be the type of people who live the most nourishing lives except for alchemists, but they also have the highest mortality rate.

The second is craftsmen. These people mainly make a living by refining alchemy, drawing talismans, and refining weapons. With these skills, no matter how bad their lives are, they will not be any worse off.

The third is to make a living by collecting herbs. Most of these people have low cultivation levels and are basically low-level monks. They have no other means of making a living and can only make a living by collecting herbs. An income of five or six spiritual stones every month is already good.

This type of people is the largest in number and is also at the bottom of the shanty towns.

Obviously, Raymond falls into the third category.

But in recent days, Raymond has not been able to find a single elixir.

The deadline for returning the spirit stone is the day after tomorrow. If the elixir cannot be found in exchange for the spirit stone, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Why bother..." Raymond couldn't help but lamented.

After this episode, Raymond's original intention of going out for a walk was gone. Just as he was about to turn around and go back to the house, he heard someone calling him again.

"Fellow Daoist Raymond."

Raymond followed the sound and looked where it came from. A pair of young men and women came face to face. Their faces were full of fatigue, as if they had been returning in a hurry.

However, it was raining heavily before, but there was no trace of rain on the two of them.

The man looked to be in his 20s. Although he was tired, his eyes were extremely sharp and his expression was cold, giving people the impression that strangers should not enter.

The woman was about 20 years old. She was wearing a light green robe. She had an oval face and was extremely outstanding in both figure and appearance.

It was this woman who stopped Raymond just now.

Based on his memory, Raymond quickly learned their names.

Ren Ling and Ren Qingqiong are a brother and sister who live not far from him.

Make a living by hunting monsters.

Raymond didn't dare to make excuses, so he smiled and replied:

"It turns out they are two fellow Taoists, haha." Ren Ling just glanced at Raymond with a lowered eyebrow and ignored him.

Raymond knew that this person had always been like this and was not annoyed.

Ren Qingqiong glanced in the direction where the vicious man left, frowned slightly, and obviously knew the identity of the vicious man, so she turned to remind Raymond:

"Young Daoyou Liu, you should have less contact with that kind of people in the future. Many people who deal with them end up with their families ruined. There is nothing these people can't do."

"What Fellow Daoist Ren said is that I will pay attention to it in the future." Raymond's smile froze, and he didn't know the nature of these people.

But now it's a done deal, what else can be done?

I could only curse the original owner again in my heart for leaving such a mess for myself.

When Ren Qingqiong wanted to say something more, a cold voice came.

"Okay, Qingqiong, why bother caring about the life and death of this kind of people? This kind of people bring their own fault." Ren Ling said coldly.

Raymond couldn't help but choked when he heard this, and frowned slightly. It seemed that he had never provoked him.

Without even looking at Raymond, Ren Ling pulled his sister towards a two-story luxury wooden house not far away.

Not only was this the best house in the neighborhood, it was also the only one with a formation outside.

Raymond was left alone, and the conversation between the Ren family brother and sister could be heard in his ears.

"Brother, this Raymond is so pitiful. He can't even pay the rent for a spiritual stone. Why don't you help him?"

"Huh, pitiful? Last month I saw him go to Goulan in Fangshi. The cheapest Lingji there costs three Lingshi."

"Ah? This... this... eh? Brother, how do you know that the cheapest Ling Ji in there is three Ling Stones?"

"Uh... what we are discussing now is..."

As the two walked away, Raymond could no longer hear what was said behind them.

"Goulan Lingji?" Raymond was not impressed by this.

Two seconds later, Raymond's face became stiff and he almost lost his breath:
"Raymon, I'll fuck you!"

Raymond did go to Goulan and ordered a Lingji.

"No wonder people say you brought it on yourself and don't deserve pity. You really deserve it!" Raymond returned to the room and cursed: "You have finished enjoying all the blessings. I will bear the suffering for you, your uncle!"

Looking at the wine bottles and glasses scattered on the ground, I became even more angry.

"But Ling Ji seems to be quite... bah bah bah."

Especially when Raymond looked in the mirror, he was obviously only 36 years old, but he looked so haggard that he looked like he was in his 40s. Everyone was shocked.

murmured:
"I didn't expect that I would be so haggard due to the injuries caused by drinking and sex."

He immediately made up his mind: "From today on, I will stop drinking!"

After scolding and getting angry, Raymond crawled back onto the bed. After these two incidents, Raymond became more aware of his difficult situation.

But no matter how sad it is, as long as people are still alive, life must go on.

As the saying goes, if you practice skills again and again, you will have no worries about food. The reason why Raymond dared to leave his job and go home from the construction site in his previous life was because he could write novels.

Even though he's a loser, at least he won't starve to death.

"It's a pity that this body can't do anything. It can't refine weapons, it can't make talismans, let alone refining alchemy."

"Forget it, I'll go to the wild to collect herbs tomorrow. If I have better luck and find one or two herbs, I can solve the current predicament. Especially since it rained today, I might actually be able to harvest something tomorrow."

After saying that, Raymond seemed to remember something and started groping around on his body.

Soon, he took out a dark green flying knife from his waist.

This is a low-grade magical weapon, the 'Blue Moon Flying Knife'. It is about [-] centimeters long, is dark green in color, and is made of jade-like material. There are some complicated and delicate patterns on the flying knife, and it looks good.

This is the most valuable thing about Raymond.

The magic weapon is a life-saving tool that every monk must carry when going out. It may not be useful, but it cannot be lived without.

"If I really can't find the herbal medicine in the end, I will have no choice but to sell this magic weapon." Raymond sighed in his heart.

Unless they can't survive, no one will sell their life-saving guy, because that will make them lose their biggest support in the wild.

……

night.

The bright moon is like frost.

The dirty shanty towns are a little more peaceful.

However, from time to time, there were shrill screams coming from far away, as well as the sound of collision of magic weapons. Raymond knew that the peace was just an illusion.

Night is the carnival of hunters.

Raymond huddled in the corner of the bed and wrapped himself tightly in the quilt.

Under the quilt is the clenched Biyue Flying Knife.

Uneasiness and fear took over his body and mind.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

……

I don't know how long it took, but the constant concentration made Raymond exhausted physically and mentally, and his eyelids were fighting crazily.

When he just closed his eyes, a voice resounded in his mind!

[If you find an object that can be "deprived", should you activate it? 】

【whether】

The sudden sound suddenly woke up Raymond.

Looking at the blue panel that suddenly appeared in front of him and the text on it, Raymond stared blankly for a while.

Fortunately, Raymond had also read some novels in his previous life, and he soon realized that this was his golden finger!
Raymond felt like his eyes were filled with tears at this time.

Although I don't know what this golden finger does, it is enough as long as it can help me get out of the current predicament.

So, with agitated emotions, Raymond slowly stretched out his finger and clicked on 'Yes'.

The next moment, the text changes.

[Object to be deprived: Wang Ming (fifth level of Qi training)]

【Obtained by deprivation:】

[3. Skill: Talisman Making-Amulet]

【Whether to extract? 】

"There is actually a talisman!" Raymond was stunned, a little surprised.

The 'Five Elements Kung Fu' is exactly what Lei Meng practiced.

Looking at the text on the blue panel and suppressing the excitement in his heart, Raymond clicked 'Yes' without even thinking!
I am afraid that these things will disappear in the next moment.

The next moment, the content of the blue panel changes.
