Chapter 17

Qiu?

"What is that thing." Someone didn't understand.

Xu Ming said: "Qiu might be very strange to everyone, but it has another name, Qiu Dragon."

"Dragon?" Everyone was shocked.

Qiu Dragon actually has a relationship with the dragon in mythology.

"Qiu Dragon is not a dragon, it is a kind of big snake with horns. This kind of creature does not exist on Earth. It is an extraordinary creature that invaded us from another world after the Sky Tilt incident. That Qiu was found in a dangerous area of a city and was hunted by a group of cultivators together. The body was sold to a pharmaceutical company. The cultivation pod is something produced and manufactured by dissecting and researching the bodies of various extraordinary creatures." Xu Ming said.

"There are quite a few things similar to this. If you have confidence in your strength, you can try to enter the dangerous area. If you can capture or hunt an extraordinary creature alive, you can earn a considerable income."

Zhang Gao waved his hands repeatedly: "Forget it, our physique going to the dangerous area is just to feed, facing those extraordinary creatures is not enough to fill the gaps in our teeth. I'd better honestly be a guide to work and earn money. Li Yi, you say right."

Li Yi said: "Working is just a transition. Have you seen any worker get rich? If I had that ability, I would definitely go to the dangerous area to catch an extraordinary creature. As long as I succeed, the money earned is enough for you to spend for a lifetime. If there is no sufficient benefit, do you think that Qiu Dragon became an accessory on the cultivation pod?"

"Those cultivators walking in front are not fools, they must be profitable to be willing to risk hunting Qiu Dragon."

Xu Ming nodded and said: "Not bad, in the face of huge benefits, even powerful cultivators are willing to risk their lives to do some dangerous things."

"Okay, everyone eat first. There is rich food in the cafeteria. If you don't want to waste a lot of time eating, we also provide nutrient solution here, but it can only be drunk in the cafeteria and cannot be packed away."

Everyone saw that there were all kinds of exquisite food in the cafeteria on this floor, with a lot of steak, fresh raw fish, large pots of meat soup, and piles of fruits and vegetables.

These can supplement a large amount of nutrition for cultivators.

"Since there is food, I will definitely eat." Zhang Gao said: "Nutrient solution is only suitable for use when cultivating. Now that I am not cultivating, it is better to eat."

"Why is this? Isn't nutrient solution more convenient?" Li Yi asked.

Zhang Gao immediately explained: "That's because the bodies of us cultivators are transforming and evolving. A large amount of diet can activate our ability to digest and absorb food. If we drink nutrient solution for a long time, our gastrointestinal function will gradually weaken, and finally fail to keep up with the speed of body evolution, leaving hidden dangers. And most of our time is spent on cultivation, and the opportunity to exercise digestion and absorption ability is already small, so we should try to eat when we can eat."

"So that's how it is." Li Yi suddenly realized, and learned a little new cultivation knowledge.

"Thanks for your answer, since that's the case, I also choose to eat."

Zhang Gao smiled immediately, and then continued: "Li Yi, it is best to choose meat such as steak, chicken, and duck when you eat. If you can, it is best to eat the bones together, so that the exercise effect on our gastrointestinal tract will be better."

"Not bad, some fierce beasts in nature can even digest large bones. We cultivators are constantly evolving, and our body functions will sooner or later exceed any fierce beast in nature, so the ability to digest bones is something we will sooner or later master. Necessary exercise is indispensable. Okay, don't talk nonsense, start eating." Another cultivator on the side expressed agreement.

Soon, several people began to frantically take food, and then found a place to sit down and eat.

Li Yi was also not polite, taking all kinds of delicacies at will. He wanted to have a good meal this time, because he usually couldn't bear to eat many things here, and now that he finally encountered an opportunity, of course he had to eat it back fiercely.

"Li Yi, the previous matter was a misunderstanding. I solemnly apologize to you here, I hope you don't take it to heart. If you need help with anything in the future, I will definitely help."

At this time, a cultivator walked over with a dinner plate and apologized solemnly.

His name is Lu Jue, and he didn't want to offend a cultivator with potential to death because of such a small matter, and he was not the initiator, so he wanted to take this meal opportunity to resolve the misunderstanding.

If this misunderstanding is not resolved in time, if the contradiction breaks out again in the future, it will really become an enemy.

After all, the circle of cultivators in Tianchang City is not large, and they will see each other when they look down in the future.

Li Yi was stunned, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and looked at him calmly: "I am not that kind of narrow-minded person. Since you take the initiative to apologize to me and are willing to resolve this misunderstanding, I am very happy to accept it. Everyone goes out to earn money, not to form enemies, and I don't have any deep hatred with you."

"Thanks."

Lu Jue took a deep breath, and his whole person relaxed: "I was also coerced at that time, and I didn't expect Wu Zhen to do that."

"The previous matter is all in the past, eat." Li Yi nodded.

Only the strong deserve to be treated well. The weaker you are, the more you will be bullied. He understood this truth long ago.

"Li Yi, I also have to apologize to you. I should have stood up at that time, and shouldn't have hidden in the room and ignored it." Zhang Gao also came over at this time, and he said with some annoyance.

Li Yi said: "This has nothing to do with you, you don't need to apologize to me, and I didn't blame you."

He wouldn't resent Zhang Gao for not helping. After all, they met for the first time, everyone was a stranger, and it was normal for Zhang Gao to choose to protect himself. Where are there so many good people who see justice and act in this world.

"That's good, so some misunderstandings must be resolved as soon as possible. Going out, having more friends is better than having more enemies. Forget it, don't talk about this, eat, eat." Zhang Gao smiled, and then began to bury his head in dry food.

Li Yi didn't speak, and continued to eat and drink.

And Zhao Xiaoxiao, who saw this scene not far away, had a hesitant expression.

"Should I also apologize to Li Yi and resolve this misunderstanding?" She was very hesitant.

"Is your apology useful?"

At this moment, Wu Zhen, who was bruised and swollen, sneered and walked over: "You looked down on others from the beginning."

Zhao Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and said: "I looked down on others from the beginning, but I didn't think about bullying others. Besides, what's wrong with being snobbish? I just misjudged."

"The process is not important, you have a share in this matter, your hatred with Li Yi is considered settled. Instead of apologizing, it is better to think of some way to make this Li Yi lose his job. He is not going well in cultivation now because he lacks money. If he saves a large sum of money in this job and then cultivates in this environment, it will be really dangerous."

Wu Zhen said, trying to pull Zhao Xiaoxiao to his side.

"If you want to deal with Li Yi, go yourself, I won't drag you into the water again." Zhao Xiaoxiao said angrily.

At this time, Supervisor Xu Ming, who had just left, returned again, and he was followed by two assistants, each assistant holding a box in his hand.

"Sorry, disturbed everyone's meal time, but considering that I have other work to do, I can only settle everyone's first day salary here."

"Salary paid? Great."

Suddenly, everyone stopped eating and gathered one after another.

Xu Ming took a salary sheet and looked at it: "Zhang Gao, six hours of working time, no interruption of guidance work in the middle, the salary is a total of 54,000."

Subsequently, an assistant opened the box, quickly took out a stack of money and counted it. Soon, the salary of 54,000 was handed to Zhang Gao.

However, the salary of 54,000 looks like a lot, but in fact it is only a small stack, because the largest denomination now is 1,000 yuan, not the previous 100 yuan.

But Zhang Gao was still very excited after getting it, because this was the largest daily salary he had received since he was a guide.

"Zhao Xiaoxiao, six hours of working time, the guidance work was not broken in the middle, salary 54,000." Xu Ming said, continuing to let the assistant distribute the salary.

After Zhao Xiaoxiao took the salary, she counted it, then nodded and put it away.

Subsequently, Lu Jue and another cultivator also received their salaries, they were all 54,000.

"Wu Zhen, six hours of working time, but you woke up from meditation once in the middle, so according to the contract, the salary is halved, a total of 27,000." Supervisor Xu Ming said: "I hope you will be more serious when you work next time."

"I will adjust my state tomorrow." Wu Zhen's expression was a bit ugly. He didn't leave immediately after taking the salary, but looked at Li Yi.

He wanted to know how much Li Yi earned for six hours of guidance work.

After all, among the seven people, only he signed the second contract, and the second contract has no base salary. How much you earn depends entirely on how much cosmic energy you guide.

Li Yi was also very curious at this moment, how much money he earned.

Xu Ming glanced at the salary sheet, and was a bit surprised at this moment, then said: "Li Yi, your working time is six hours. During this period, you guided a total of 2,200 units of cosmic energy, so your salary is 220,000."

220,000?

Hearing this sentence, others looked at Li Yi in surprise. ===== CHAPTER 18 =====
