The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

The next day, when the young man handed over the completed message jade slip and received 10 spirit stones, both of them were beaming with joy.

Don't underestimate Xin Mo and the others just because they're only at the Qi Refining Perfection stage. They're disciples of Ma Changshou, the prospective sect leader. A mere spirit stone is nothing to them.

Although the question was a bit tricky for this new disciple, it was worth ten spirit stones!

Thus, the two sides began their cooperation.

Three days later, the new disciple was scratching his head frantically as he looked at the problem.

"Ugh, why are there always so many questions?!"

Unfortunately, at first he thought this business was pretty good; he could make a fortune by spending just a few hours each day.

But after three consecutive days, he started scratching his head frantically.

He couldn't help but sigh immediately.

"I wish someone could help me!"

"Hey, I can just transfer this to someone else later and give them half!"

"No, half is too much. Two yuan, no, one yuan. Let's just have five receipts!"

"They must be very happy!"

He actually wanted to offer even less, but when he thought about how he would get nine and a half spirit stones in the blink of an eye, he decided to be generous this time.

But to his surprise, his good friend only glanced at the details and then subcontracted the job for a small fee.

After many twists and turns, the contents of the jade slip quickly transformed into a sheet of paper full of questions, and ended up in the hands of a five-year-old child.

"Quick, quick, brothers, let's think of a way to solve this, and we can get 10 taels of silver. Then we can buy lots of candy!"

As he spoke, he shook the papers in his hand.

As the saying goes, one in three men will come up with a brilliant idea, and these kids are no exception.

"Hey, why think so much? We can just let Big Yellow help us choose!"

"Whoever Big Yellow chooses is the righteous one!"

The others' eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"Yeah, it's just filling out a form, you can just fill it out casually and call it a day!"

Before long, the group of children arrived at the woods outside the Azure Dragon Gate.

"Big Yellow, Big Yellow, come quick! I brought you some delicious chicken bones and steamed buns!"

As soon as the voice fell, a large yellow dog, about a meter tall, rushed out of the bushes. Although the dog was big, its eyes were very bright and intelligent. You could tell without even looking that it had definitely become intelligent.

Upon seeing that Big Yellow had arrived, the group immediately began to carry out their plan.

Just then, Lu Changfeng and Ma Changshou happened to be passing by in the sky. When they noticed what was happening, he was still in surprise.

"Hey, these kids are interesting. I didn't expect them to be so unafraid of such a big dog!"

Lu Changfeng glanced at it and his eyes narrowed instantly. Almost immediately, he noticed something unusual about the jade slip.

Without hesitation, he immediately began using the divination technique.

The results came out quickly, and he almost burst out laughing when he saw the divination results.

Good heavens, he's seen through the layers of outsourcing in the cultivation world!

The task of filling in the blanks with 10 spirit stones ended up with only 10 taels of silver left, or rather, some leftover chicken bones and two steamed buns.

One spirit stone is equivalent to 100 taels of gold and 1,000 taels of silver.

So, if you calculate it that way, the middleman takes 99.99% of the profits. To be honest, that's really shady!

He immediately glanced at Ma Changshou beside him and knew in one glance that the guy hadn't noticed yet!

He immediately said with a smile,

"Indeed, but these kids are actually making this dog make a choice here!"

"This is interesting! You look a bit like me! Let's keep watching!"

That's right, his idea was to deliberately lead him in that direction.

As expected, Ma Changshou had no objection upon hearing this.

Watching the three children questioning the big yellow dog, he couldn't help but think of his three apprentices.

"Hey, what are you saying? I'm not one of these kids, and my apprentice isn't this big yellow dog!"

"Now that you mention it, I do have a bit to say!"

"I did it for a month according to your description, and that month was really easy!"

"You were right after all!"

"Look at these kids, they have almost the same problems I've encountered!"

Ma Changshou was smiling perfectly fine until those words came out, and he immediately sensed something was wrong.

He landed quickly on the ground, startling the three children and the dog. The big yellow dog bared its teeth and protected the three children behind it, barking wildly at Ma Changshou.

However, Ma Changshou didn't care about that at the moment.

"Kid, let me see this. Don't worry, I'll give it back to you later!"

Without paying any attention to the three children and the dog, he reached out and grabbed the form from the child's hand.

However, it would have been better if I hadn't looked, because what I saw was quite shocking.

It should be noted that the questions Ma Changshou left for his apprentices were carefully selected. Although I hadn't looked at them carefully, I still had some recollection of some of them.

Surprisingly, some of these questions are indeed among them.

He immediately thought of his three apprentices' plan.

"Good, good, good, you three little rascals really made me proud!"

However, as soon as he turned his head, he saw Lu Changfeng smirking. Seeing this, he knew exactly what Lu Changfeng was thinking!

"Brother Lu, you did that on purpose, didn't you!"

Lu Changfeng spread his hands innocently.

"Would you believe me if I said no?"

Ma Changshou immediately rolled his eyes.

"I don't believe you for a second!"

"Those three little brats really need to be taught a lesson!"

"Brother Lu, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now!"

Lu Changfeng smiled and nodded in response.

"Alright, go ahead!"

Although he really wanted to see this spectacle live, Ma Changshou hadn't invited him, so he had to give up.

However, just because he gave up watching the fun live doesn't mean he won't see it at all.

He was immediately informed by Song Yikan's message, and soon received a reply. After reading it, he burst out laughing.

On the other side, Ma Changshou also quickly arrived at his small palace.

The three apprentices, who had been chatting happily, immediately bowed and greeted Ma Changshou upon his arrival.

"Greetings, Master."

However, the three of them had just looked up when they saw Ma Changshou's gloomy face, and their hearts skipped a beat.

"What's wrong with Master today? He seems really angry!"

"Wait a minute, didn't he go out to play with Uncle Changfeng? Didn't he have fun?"

"You're all wrong. Master must have suffered a setback with Uncle Changfeng!"

The three of them chuckled, which made Ma Changshou's face darken even more.

Finally, he couldn't help but speak up.

"Disciples, how's the handling of the messages on the jade slips going lately?"

Upon hearing this, the three immediately began to showcase themselves.

"Master, hehehe, don't worry, we'll handle this kind of thing perfectly!"

"That's right, Master, we've got experience handling these things, no problem!"

"Yeah, yeah, we're all veterans, no problem!"

However, upon hearing his three apprentices' words, Ma Changshou couldn't help but laugh in anger.

"You've gained experience in handling these things, that's impressive! Tell me, what kind of experience do you all have?"
