Chapter 20: The Abandoned Pill Room
"Nuo, this is your token, take it."
A low ranked cultivator around forty years old, threw a waist plate into Lin Xuan's hands, his expression was cold, squinting his eyes and sizing up this somewhat dull looking teenager, Waste Dan Room Steward, this was the most trashy position, there was not a bit of oil and water, this teenager must have been cheated by Steward Feng.
For the contempt in his eyes, Lin Xuan pretended not to see it, now that he was harboring a big secret, of course he had to act in a low profile, it was best to pretend to be dumb.
"Thank you senior brother."
Lin Xuan looked at the waist plate in his hand, it was half the size of a palm, it was not gold or wood, the front side was engraved with the words "Waste Dan Room", while the reverse side was engraved with "Steward".
This is the token that represents one's identity, with it, in the first floor of Danxia Mountain, one can break the ban, travel unimpeded, and freely come and go in and out of the Waste Dan Room.
Danxia Mountain, as an important place for this sect, was divided into three layers.
The second layer of which was dozens of alchemy chambers that introduced the fire of the earth's veins, while the third layer stored all kinds of finished pills as well as medicinal herbs, all of which were very important, covered with layers of prohibitions and countless dark and light barriers, making it extremely difficult to enter.
The first floor is including the waste dan room, hospitality room, as well as a variety of miscellaneous places, the ban to be less, Lin Xuan has this waist plate, as a Danxia Mountain periphery of a low-ranking steward, can be in the first floor unimpeded.
Holding the waist plate, Lin Xuan's heart was joyful, but his face remained a dull look as he bid farewell like that low-ranked cultivator.
When he walked out of the room and came to an unoccupied location, Lin Xuan held the waist plate in his hand, the aura of a newcomer who knew nothing about anything immediately disappeared without a trace, and the whole person appeared to be shrewd and mature, with a sneering smile flowing out of the corner of his mouth.
Waste Dan room steward position, finally arrived, just pay a price of crystal stone debris, to achieve their goals, so that the future of the Dan source of security, but also not the slightest will not cause the suspicion of the crowd, one shot, two birds with one stone.
After a moment of silence, Lin Xuan fished out a jade cylinder brief from his bosom and injected his divine sense into it, what was contained inside was not a technique, but a map of the first floor of the Danxia Mountain, as well as some precautions on what places could be walked on, and what places were strictly forbidden to enter.
After browsing around for a bit, Lin Xuan found the seat of the waste dan storage room from within and then took a big step over.
"This waste dan is really trash in the eyes of other cultivators, on the way to other places, there are more or less a few prohibitions, but only this waste dan storage room, there's actually nothing." Lin Xuan walked while muttering to himself in his mind, but the more it was like this, the more favorable it was for himself, the fact that the waste dan was not taken seriously made it more convenient for him to act.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Lin Xuan finally arrived at the waste dan storage room, it was a small courtyard type of building, the largest room was the storehouse, the others were where the stewards and the children under them lived.
It was relatively simple, but the area was quite spacious, Lin Xuan surveyed it and nodded in satisfaction before directly lifting his foot and walking into the courtyard.
In the courtyard, a few fifteen or six year old children were boredly sunbathing, it was obvious that no one had come here for a long time, so when they saw Lin Xuan, they were taken aback, but when they saw clearly that Lin Xuan was wearing a costume representing the cultivators of this sect, they immediately revealed a respectful expression, ran over, and bowed, and one of the children who seemed to be a little bit older, and seemed to be the head of the group, respectfully said:" Immortal Master, may I ask what is your business here?"
"What is your name?"
"Junior's name is Zhao Ming." The boy was not the least bit dissatisfied with Lin Xuan's answer, but instead said respectfully.
The other children also didn't dare to breathe a breath of air, which allowed Lin Xuan to fully realize the superiority of being superior, in the eyes of ordinary people, cultivators were superior, and it was a comfortable feeling to be the superior one.
"You're their leader?"
"Yes!" Zhao Ming answered truthfully, "I am the acting steward here."
"Acting Steward?" Lin Xuan was stunned, although it was a chore, the position of steward in the sect had always been held by a cultivator, and he was an outside disciple...
As if he could see Lin Xuan's doubts, Zhao Ming smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not hiding it from you, but the position of steward in the Waste Dan Room has been vacant for quite some time, and since there's been no new Immortal Master assigned to it from above, it's been taken over by the youngest of them temporarily."
"I see." Lin Xuan nodded, for other cultivators, there was no oil and water in the Waste Dan Room Stewardship, so none of them were willing to come.
After thinking clearly about this point, Lin Xuan said in a big manner, "I'm the new steward sent by the sect, from now on, the Waste Dan Room is under my control, this is the token waist plate, take a look."
Zhao Ming wasn't stupid, and obviously expected a few things, so there wasn't much of a surprised expression on his face, he took the waist plate, and after checking that it was correct, he led the other children to salute together, "Disciples see Lord Steward."
"That's all." Lin Xuan waved his hand, "You guys busy yourselves!"
He dismissed the other children, leaving only Zhao Ming behind, "Take me around."
In the future, this would be his own territory, of course Lin Xuan would want to clarify the situation first, Zhao Ming nodded and respectfully led the way in front.
"Creak!"
A heavy door slowly opened, countless dust fell from overhead, Lin Xuan's expression was a bit stunned, looking at the bottles and jars piled up in a mess in front of him, "This... this is the storage room for the waste pills?"
"Yes, Immortal Master."
"Why is it like no one has cleaned it for a long time, and it hasn't been organized, it's piled up in a mess like this, where's the chart of accounts, how many waste pills are there here?"
"This..." Zhao Ming opened his mouth, after a while, before carefully said: "Immortal Master, exactly how much waste Dan, I'm not sure, the chart of accounts, has not been done for a long time."
"How can this be, aren't you the steward here, how come you don't know anything?"
"Master Immortal, it's like this..." Zhao Ming peeked at Lin Xuan's face, carefully weighing the words, "You also know that the waste pills have too many impurities, and they are not useful to cultivators, and harmful to the body, although they are not thrown away, but they are really chicken ribs, piled up here. , the management is naturally very chaotic, who will still do the accounts, it is not that I am slacking off when I do the temporary stewardship, but it has always been so, Piaoyun Valley also has a history of thousands of years, the rules of the successive generations of waste dan room are all like this, anyway, these waste dan is just garbage, there will not be anyone to steal it at all, what to do with inventorying it?"
