You, a druid, go to practice Taoism?.

Chapter 10 Fushenghui

Wang Shan? Jie Xiu?
Jie Xiu is coming again?
When Qi Ping heard what Old Man Zhou said, he couldn't help but frown.

This is not the first time that Jie Xiu has appeared.

In recent years, the robbery cultivators would wreak havoc from time to time, specifically targeting independent cultivators.

What is even more unusual is that the cultivators of Qingyuan Sect are like blind people, and only occasionally send people to suppress the robbers when they are causing trouble.

This would have been impossible in the past!

A few years ago in Qingtian Territory, under the governance of Qingyuan Sect, the planting and breeding industries in the entire Qingtian Territory were quite developed, and the trade industry was also quite prosperous.

Qingshi County is under the jurisdiction of Qingtian Territory, and black bees, golden-feathered chickens, and soul-enhancing fruits are typical representatives of the industries here.

The Qingyuan Sect also earned a large amount of spirit stone taxes through prosperous agriculture, animal husbandry and commercial transactions.

When Qi Ping first came to the world of immortal cultivation, he was also shocked by the Qingtian Realm governed by the Qingyuan Sect.

The industry is prosperous and public security is in order!
It’s so different from the world of immortal cultivation depicted in many novels!
Although it is not easy to be a monk at the lower level, life is acceptable. By raising bees, growing fruits, etc., they can lead a pretty good life.

This is how Old Man Zhou spent most of his life. Without so many life and death disputes, his life was still quite enjoyable.

Unless there is some disease, animal disaster or something like that.

When encountering these disasters, not only will the initial investment of ordinary monks be wasted, but they will also have to pay several years of rent. However, these situations are not frequent.

Overall, we can still make a living, and if there is a good harvest, we can even make a small profit.

But starting from two or three years ago, everything seemed to have changed!

The robbery cultivator appeared!
As soon as they appeared, they began to plunder the wealth of the lower-level cultivators.

The casual cultivators who were plundered not only had their wealth plundered after years of hard work, but sometimes even their lives were lost!

However, when the Tribulation Cultivator first appeared, although everyone was worried, they were not that worried.

Everyone believed that the Qingyuan Sect would capture and kill these robbers and restore law and order in the Qingtian Domain.

No one believed that the Qingyuan Sect would allow the robbers to wreak havoc in their own backyard.

At the beginning, Qingyuan Sect did exactly that. They began to send their disciples to intensify patrols and issued orders to ensure the security environment in Qingtian Domain.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they got here.

But before they could relax for long, Qingyuan Sect withdrew the disciples who were responsible for security patrols!

And this situation has continued for two or three years until now!
Without the protection of Qingyuan Sect, the robbers became increasingly unscrupulous, appearing and plundering every once in a while.

However, the rent and taxes that everyone paid to Qingyuan Sect every year did not decrease, but increased instead!

Resentment boiled over for a moment, but it didn't have much effect.

Everyone is unclear as to why Qing Yuan Sect is acting this way. Is it because of internal problems or external pressure?
This is something that no one can understand. As a low-level casual cultivator, one can only accept the situation of being at the mercy of others.

When the Qingyuan Sect is willing to maintain public order and develop industries, independent cultivators can follow suit and enjoy the benefits; but when they stop maintaining the order, although everyone is dissatisfied, they dare not say anything.

What can a weak independent cultivator do if he is dissatisfied?

Life must go on.

At least compared to the huge number of independent cultivators, those who were robbed were only a small part of them, and everyone gradually got used to it.

It's just that life has become more vigilant.

They also began to gradually organize their own alliances of independent cultivators to deal with possible dangers together.

Like Wang Shan mentioned by Old Man Zhou, including Old Man Zhou and Qi Ping, they all belong to a loose cultivator alliance called Fushenghui. Fushenghui is not big, with only more than ten people, and it was established decades ago.

This alliance was formed by several independent cultivators from nearby areas, who helped each other and kept each other warm.

The name Fushenghui also implies great fortune and prosperity of livestock, which is an expectation of ordinary cultivators for life.

People within the Fusheng Association are mostly friendly and familiar with each other, and they will help each other when needed.

One time, Qi Ping's black bee escaped, and Qi Ping searched for it for a long time but couldn't find it. It was only with the help of the people in the Fusheng Society who searched for it together for a long time that he finally found it.

Wang Shan is a mature and steady middle-aged elder brother in the Fusheng Club. He is an expert in raising first-grade golden-feathered chickens and has dozens of them.

Qi Ping's impression of him was that he was steady and meticulous in his work, friendly and kind to others, and he took the lead in many things within the Fusheng Society.

"Don't worry, old man Zhou. Don't you know me? I won't tell anyone except you."

In response to Old Man Zhou's instructions, Qi Ping patted his chest and promised not to tell anyone else so as not to worry Old Man Zhou.

"Well, you are very careful and steadfast in your work. Normally, I would not worry about you. But recently, there are too many robbery cultivators, so I have to be extra careful!"

"For an old man like me who only has ten years left to live, it doesn't matter. But Qi, you are still young, so you must live well and carry forward the beekeeping business."

As he spoke of this, Old Man Zhou's tone gradually became relaxed.

"Just relax! I guarantee you'll have enough wine in the future, and I haven't married yet." Qi Ping grinned.

"You young people, that's all you can think of! I'm going to sleep now, so don't bother me, an old man, unless you have something to do with me."

After saying that, Old Man Zhou stretched and returned to his lazy state.

He turned around and walked slowly back to the yard at a leisurely pace.

The golden marrow bee that caused the black bee to become agitated has been successfully contracted by Qi Ping, so the problem of agitation can naturally be solved.

Qi Ping can just figure out how to do it himself, Old Man Zhou is too lazy to worry about it.

Moreover, Qi Ping has now contracted the powerful Golden Marrow Bee, so his own safety can basically be guaranteed.

If he encounters an enemy that even a swarm of golden marrow bees cannot defeat, his old bones will be of basically no use.

In Old Man Zhou's impression, Qi Ping was quite careful in his work and he didn't need to worry too much, and it seemed that worrying was useless.

So after thinking all this through, Old Man Zhou returned to his leisurely and carefree state of mind.

Just practice to overcome the difficulties, life and death are determined by fate, the longer you live the more you can enjoy, if you live less that’s no big deal.

After eating a few bites of the fresh fruit on the table, Old Man Zhou lay back on the bamboo recliner.

After a while, a snoring sound began to sound quietly.

Don’t worry about anything!
Qi Ping looked at the leisurely back of Old Man Zhou as he walked away, feeling a little amused and helpless.

He was so shocked just now that his jaw almost dropped, but now he has returned to his relaxed and contented state.

It's not bad to be able to live such an open-minded life.

"But it's not time for me to give up yet!"

Qi Ping had just awakened the Druid profession and had also contracted a Golden Marrow Bee. Now was the time to be in high spirits. How could he slack off?

"First, tell the black bee colony that the issue with the golden marrow bees has been resolved, so they don't have to be afraid anymore. After that, start refining the golden marrow honey and improve your cultivation as quickly as possible..."
