Chapter 100 Cost-effectiveness
Just as Qin Ai was just passing by the tundra everywhere and wanted to continue climbing down, suddenly, a thick sea of clouds appeared instantly, blocking Qin Ai's way down the mountain.
This sea of clouds is very thick. If you enter it, you can't see things clearly five meters away. And if you go deeper, you will find that the sea of clouds is as physical as it goes. The more you go down, the greater the resistance. After Qin Ai took this pressure down for about ten meters, he found that his whole body was extremely heavy, as if he was in the deep sea of high pressure, sweating all over and could no longer take a step forward.
After discovering that with his current strength, he could not continue to break through, Qin Ai also understood a little. The sea of clouds in his feelings was a barrier. This barrier was so solid and dense that he suspected that he had to reach the Dan Killing Stage before he could break through here.
After realizing this, Qin Ai stopped trying and began to turn around and return to the mountain while he still had the strength. It was strange that when he walked back, although he was still under pressure in the fog, he was much easier than before, just as if the fog was conscious and knew that you would stop blocking it.
Back to the foggy mountainside, Qin Ai collected yellow and red moss again. After he couldn't get it, he returned to the small wooden house on the top of the mountain.
Looking down from the top of the mountain, the sea of clouds has disappeared. From above, there are still mountains and waters. The scenery is pleasant, especially the vast ocean around the mountain, which is endless and vast. I don’t know whether it is true or false, but what is more interesting in it.
In any case, after such an unsuccessful adventure, Qin Aimu vaguely realized that this small world seems to have its own consciousness, and with this hill as the center, the lower the level of species seems to be higher, the more species, and the more complex it is. But if you reach a certain level, you must reach a certain level to break through the barrier, otherwise you will have to stop at the top of the mountain.
As for those mosses containing spiritual energy, it may be good things to help you break through the realm. In fact, if the spiritual energy contained in these mosses is similar, it should not be too difficult to break through the realm to the elixir stage.
"Sorry." After looking at Ruan Yuzhen, Qin Ailio shook his head in disappointment, "I didn't expect there was a barrier. My strength is not enough now, and I can't go down. I can't help you find something that will help you."
"It's okay, boss." Ruan Yuzhen said indifferently, "I said, what our spiritual body is most afraid of is waiting. Well, in fact, it's mainly for you, boss, and you should improve your strength as soon as possible. Otherwise, if something happens to you, I will suffer. After all, I am dependent on you now. If something happens to you, I'm not good either. Therefore, if you really think about me, you should still care more about yourself, such as going to less unsafe places in the future, or trying to let your subordinates go first, and don't always do it yourself."
When Qin Ai heard Ruan Yuzhen say this, he knew that the other party was a little complaining, and complained that he had rushed to fight Songchai before.
Because of the Ruyi Life and Death Talisman, they can sense it when they are in danger. However, until now, only Ruan Yuzhen has told her about this, and no one else has any movement, nor do they know whether they don’t know what to do, or they don’t know what this situation is, or they don’t know that they are in danger, or they know that they are in danger, but they are secretly happy that they think that if they die, they will be free.
With a smile, Qin Ai nodded to Ruan Yuzhen: "I understand what you mean, don't worry, I won't take any more risks in the future. You are right, and your subordinates have to move in any event. I never thought of them before because their level in the past was too poor. For example, Songchai, even if they went there, it would be useless. Well, they have never practiced before, and I have no good way to quickly improve their abilities, but now with this, everything is easy to say."
"Are you planning to give these to Xie Yangguang and others?" Ruan Yuzhen was slightly surprised when he found that Qin Ai pointed to the pile of fresh moss on the ground, "Are you not going to use it yourself? Why give it to them?"
"The cost-effectiveness issue." Qin Ai shook his head, "I have reached the late stage of foundation building. What I need is not only huge spiritual energy, but also a quiet place to retreat without interruption, to build all the meridians in my body bit by bit, then penetrate the qi, and finally break through to the Dan Killing stage. This project is very huge. After all, the meridians of the human body are very complicated, and if you are not careful, you will become possessed by the demons. Therefore, you must be cautious and cautious. It is not just for spiritual energy. However, based on my current troubles, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to have a relatively stable place to retreat in the short term. Therefore, at this stage, solving the troubles on my body is the most important thing. To solve my troubles, you must improve my strength, so you must find another way and improve the abilities of your subordinates."
"So, can you improve your strength by using these for those people?" Ruan Yuzhen asked.
"Of course." Qin Ai said, "These things have the greatest effect on people in the early stage of foundation building. The lower their cultivation level, the faster they can use these improvements. If Xie Yangguang and others are elevated to the realm of opening up the Ren and Du meridians in a short period of time, their power will not be the same. At that time, quantitative change will produce qualitative changes, which means that my power will be greatly improved? In this way, if there is anything, I will be relieved that it is not."
"But, they have improved their strength, will it threaten you?" Ruan Yuzhen said, "You are now at the level of the Ren and Du meridians being connected. At most, it is more pure. If you quickly improve them, will they backfire when their strength is similar to yours?"
"No." Qin Ai smiled, "You underestimate the power of Ruyi Life and Death Talisman. As long as this thing is planted, unless the person who lowers the Talisman will be freed by me for the rest of his life. Even if his power level is much higher than mine, it will be the same! In other words, if I have won my Ruyi Life and Death Talisman, unless I am happy in this life, they will be bound and controlled by me forever."
Of course, Qin Ai's words are not true, because although Ruyi's Life and Death Talisman is powerful, it is also limited. If the power level of the person receiving the Talisman is above three levels higher than that of the person who is the mother Talisman, such as reaching the Nascent Soul Realm, he can break through the constraints of the Life and Death Talisman and restore freedom.
However, Qin Ai definitely couldn't tell Ruan Yuzhen about these things. Even if Ruan Yuzhen was still more convinced, he was not wrong when he was careful. Who knows what Ruan Yuzhen thought deep down? You must know that people's thoughts are constantly changing. They may still be very loyal at this moment, but they may change their minds in the next moment. Even if it is soul searching, it is impossible to really fully interpret a person's thoughts, let alone others.
"I'll feel relieved this way." Ruan Yuzhen, who didn't know that Qin Ai had hidden a hand, nodded.
"Since that's the case, then we'll start now without further ado."
After saying that, Qin Ai took off his clothes and used them as a baggage. Then he put all the collected quick-growing spiritual moss inside, tied a knot, and then he left the small world and returned to his newly rented house.
Afterwards, he took out all the quick-growing spirit mosses from his clothes and wrapped them in a large plastic bag. Then he carried three large plastic bags and went out to take a car and headed to Wang Yanhong's local villa.
After coming to the villa, as soon as I entered the door, I found that Zhang Yong, who had already changed into a precious suit, ran over happily. He bowed to Qin Ai, and rushed to take the plastic bag in Qin Ai's hand, saying that he looked like a waiter, and he looked like a housekeeper, but he said that he was like a housekeeper, but he was clearly a security guard in a community. In short, it gave people a feeling of inappropriateness.
However, considering the other party's life experience, Qin Ai stopped thinking about it. Instead, after Zhang Yong took the things for him, he asked lightly: "Where is Wang Yanhong and the others?"
"Reply to the boss." Zhang Yong lowered his head and bowed his head and said, "Ms. Wang and the others are still practicing. They are all in their own room and have never come out."
"I haven't come out?"
"Yes, boss." Zhang Yong nodded, "Since you left here last time, they have been locking themselves in the room and not coming out except for eating, drinking, defecating, and practicing constantly. They really have perseverance."
"Perseverance? Haha." Qin Ai smiled slightly and stopped making a sound.
Qin Ai did not deny that Xie Yangguang and others were very persevering. Even his fiancée, Lin Shasha, was also a very persevering person. However, if he had perseverance, he might not be able to make them forget to eat and sleep so much.
The key problem is that the "Taixuan Ruyi Wuzhen Gong" taught by Qin Ai will make people feel happy in the early stages of cultivation. Once they get angry, the feeling of guiding the true qi to flow in their body will make people unable to stop and become addicted from now on. This is also the common feature of this type of martial arts, which attracts practitioners with a faint sense of pleasure. After all, this martial arts itself is very slow to enter the realm. If there is no more pleasure or something seduced, then who would practice this thing all day long?
In addition, when Qin Ai taught them before, he planted a ray of light true qi in their bodies in advance to accelerate their qi guidance process, and they could indeed get benefits. Once they practiced their qi wholeheartedly, they would not feel tired at all, and then they would be out of control and practice so hard.
However, this is the beginning. If after this period of time, they find that the entry is still slow and they are adapted to the feeling of true qi flowing in their bodies, they will probably lose interest greatly. This is like playing games. When they have never played before, they are naturally very interested. If they keep playing, they find that they have only been back and forth for a few moments, and they probably have no interest.
"By the way, boss," Seeing Qin Ai smile without saying a word, Zhang Yong smiled carefully, "Is it okay to tell you something?"
"What's the matter?"
"That's right. There are so many people living in this house, and there are many things inside and outside. We clean and buy vegetables and cook. We brother and sister are a little too busy." Zhang Yong said, "Look, can we add more staff? It won't cost a lot. Otherwise, we can hire a hourly worker. We are only responsible for cleaning and letting the hourly worker come to cook, so that our workload will be much less."
"Oh?" After hearing what he said, Qin Ai turned his head and looked at him, "Why, I've just been crying for a few days? Do you feel that I can't do it? I want to leave?"
"No, no, no, absolutely no, that's not the case." Zhang Yong was so scared that he waved his hand and headed, "Actually... Hi, let me tell the truth, that, boss, actually, the gentlemen in this house have too much appetite. When you were there, you were not picky about food, but as soon as you left, they all chose what they like to eat. However, the brother and sister had never learned to cook, so they could cook the food in the countryside. They were fine at the beginning, but they couldn't get used to eating it once or twice, so they insisted on us going out to buy it.
You know, this place is remote, and you have to drive up and down the mountain, but my sister and I don’t know how to drive, so we ride electric bikes in and out. But that’s all, but you see, since they practice, their appetite has increased greatly. In addition to buying food for them every day, we also have to buy household items and clean the house... My God, we are both ordinary people and we can’t be busy at all. It can be said that we have been busy from morning to dark, and we have no empty space at all. If this continues, we are tired and sick, but we are afraid that we will be tired and sick. If they lack our service, they will not get used to it."
"Why don't you order takeout?" Qin Ai asked, "Those restaurants or places where food can be sold can be delivered. Why don't you order takeout?"
"Because Ms. Wang and the others don't allow this." Zhang Yong shook his head, "They said that it is too dangerous to order takeout, and it is easy for people to know how many people live in this house. Therefore, we have to buy food in different restaurants. That's how we are tired."
"I understand." Qin Ai nodded, "It's like this, I can't make a decision on this matter easily. I'll give you a reply after I discuss it with them. How about it?"
"Then, that's all." Zhang Yong nodded, "By the way, there is another one, well, there is a reluctant request, I don't know if I can say it."
"Haha, tell me." Qin Ai smiled.
"That's right, can we ask for a leave?" Zhang Yong said, "It's not that we are together, but my sister and I take turns to ask for leave. We will definitely leave someone here and we can't escape."
"It doesn't matter whether you run or not. I said before, you can just leave. I'm just wondering, why are you going to do it after you take a leave?"
"It's not my father and mother yet." Zhang Yong sighed, "We have been out for so long and haven't been back to see it for a long time. Although I'm not doing well outside, I have to go back to see my parents in the end. Especially, I just got the news that my mother is sick and is hospitalized now, so I wonder if I can take a leave and let me go back and fulfill my filial piety, even if I give some money."
"If this is the case, you don't have to mention it to me at all." Qin Ai said in surprise, "Just say hello to the people in the house, didn't you say it? We didn't restrain you. You can leave if you want, stay if you want. If you want to leave, we don't stop you. If you want to stay, we will pay you a salary. As you hire you, didn't you say it well at that time?"
"This, that's not, that...hehe." Zhang Yong touched his head, obviously he didn't take Qin Ai's words seriously at all, but he didn't dare to say anything to refute.
Seeing him like this, Qin Ai smiled bitterly, knowing that the other party was still scaring him, or thinking that he was saying beautiful words to test them. He probably still thought that once they left, we would kill him. After all, except for his subordinates, only dead people can keep it secret.
Thinking of this, Qin Ai nodded: "Okay, I have approved your leave. You can arrange it yourself and take turns to visit the old man. In addition, given that you have worked so hard, I will give you some money before leaving to settle your family."
"Thank you, boss, thank you!" Zhang Yong nodded immediately and then said, "Don't worry, I will definitely arrange everything here before I will go back. It will definitely not delay everyone's practice."
"Yeah, that's it." Qin Ai nodded, "Is there anything else?"
"No, no more."
"If there is nothing else, just call them out, I have something to say."
"Yes, boss, you wait, I'll call you now." After Zhang Yong said that, he turned around and ran away, but soon realized something, ran back, picked up the plastic bag in his hand, and smiled awkwardly, "Boss, where is this thing placed?"
"Just put it in the living room." Qin Ai smiled.
"Yes, I understand!" Zhang Yong, who received the exact instructions, turned over again.
Seeing his slightest disregard for the past, Qin Ai smiled slightly, unable to associate it with the previous image of a liar.
Therefore, people are always multifaceted. Before being restrained, good people will expose some ugly things. However, if they are subject to certain constraints, even if they are born evil, they can be as well-behaved as a little white rabbit. Therefore, kindness or evil is ultimately a game of power.
Thinking of this, Qin Ai came to the living room and sat on the sofa. In less than five minutes, everyone in the villa gathered over. Looking around, Xie Yangguang, Wang Yanhong, Li Gangqiang, Zhang Yong and Zhang Lan brothers and sisters were all standing in the hall in a regular manner. It seemed that the soldiers waiting for inspection were the only soldiers waiting for inspection. It seemed that Lin Shasha, who seemed to rely on her special identity, sat on the sofa opposite Qin Ai as soon as she came in, and then said reluctantly: "My fiancé, what's the matter? She hurriedly asked us to come here as soon as she came. I don't know that the key to my qi training?"
"Haha, in fact, I'm so anxious to call you here because there is something good." Qin Ai smiled.
"Good thing, what good thing?" Lin Shasha was the first to ask.
"That's these things." Qin Ai pointed to the three large plastic bags that were placed on the coffee table by Zhang Yong.
"What are these?" No one else was asking. Lin Shasha was the first to stand up and looked around the plastic bag left and right, "It seems to be some moss? Lichen? What are you doing?"
"It's hard to explain clearly for a moment." Qin Ai shook his head, "Let's do this, I'd better let you experience it yourself and talk about other things."
After saying that, Qin Ai also stood up, walked to the coffee table, opened one of the plastic bags filled with green fast-growing spirit moss, took out a fast-growing spirit moss, and pinched it into four small pieces, giving Lin Shasha, Wang Yanhong, Xie Yangguang and Li Gangqiang one by one.
