Cultivating Immortality: I Can See the Script of Life

Although the Corpse Puppet Hall is considered a decent position in the outer sect, this kind of internal affairs with a fixed salary doesn't involve much danger, so the contributions aren't very high.

In particular, the only job of the steward on the first floor of the Corpse Puppet Hall is to distribute tasks.

Therefore, it is necessary to be on duty every day, unlike the morgue where it is a rotation system.

Moreover, the Corpse Puppet Hall's working hours are earlier and its closing time is later than the Corpse Sewing Room's, which significantly encroaches on cultivation time.

Having received an award from the Chen family, Jiang Chuan naturally wouldn't continue working there.

However, Jiang Chuan was just a scapegoat chosen by Wan Yi.

Now that Qian Zhuo is dead, Jiang Chuan is just an insignificant extra, not worth his time at all.

……

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Wan Yi arrived at the Yinshan Small Meeting in Crescent Moon Valley.

The outline of Crescent Moon Valley gradually became clear. In the distance, it was bustling with noise, and outer disciples were coming and going everywhere.

Wan Yi put away the apricot-yellow boat and squeezed into the crowd.

However, instead of setting up a stall directly, he walked deeper into the crowd.

The reason is simple: you have to pay a stall fee to set up a stall at the Yinshan Fair.

If you dare to set up a stall without paying the stall fee or obtaining a permit, you'll probably get ambushed by the Yinshan Society as soon as you step outside.

As for the booth fees at the Yinshan Small Fair, they are not fixed and are not charged at a fixed amount, but rather 10% of the transaction amount.

For monks who make large transactions, a 10% booth fee is very unfriendly.

Fortunately, Wan Yi is a small business, so there's no need to worry about not even making back the stall fee.

These rules were also established based on the actual situation of the Yinshan Small Meeting.

Most of the people who set up stalls here are outer disciples. Their cultivation level is not high, and they don't have any rare treasures. It's impossible for them to make any big transactions.

Moreover, this 10% is based on the transaction amount.

Even if they take 10%, it's still better than the Corpse Puppet Palace driving the price down to half.

Otherwise, who would bother to trade at the Yinshan Small Meeting?

Squeezing through the bustling crowd, Wan Yi quickly arrived at the highest point in the valley.

Here stands a rather magnificent palace, with upturned eaves and carved beams and painted rafters, exuding an air of grandeur from afar, forming a stark contrast with the simple stalls around it.

"This must be the Crescent Moon Pavilion, right?"

I heard that the Crescent Moon Pavilion is the territory of the Crescent Moon Fairy, who is in charge of the Yinshan Society and is responsible for managing the affairs of the Yinshan Society.

Wan Yi was only there to pay the stall fee and obtain a permit to set up a stall, so he naturally wouldn't see an inner sect master like Fairy Crescent Moon. He only needed to find a few deacons and disciples.

He arrived at the counter on the first floor, and as soon as he entered, he was stunned by the scene before him.

Behind the counter on the first floor stood several female disciples, all of them charming and beautiful with hot figures. They wore uniform light purple gauze dresses, had sweet smiles, and spoke in soft voices that made one's heart melt.

It must be said that the business practices of private organizations like the Yinshan Society are better than those of the Corpse Puppet Hall.

In comparison, the stewards of the Corpse Puppet Hall were simply a bunch of oddballs.

Yinshan Club's service is truly top-notch.

While secretly marveling at his own work, Wan Yi discreetly examined the data panels of the female cultivators.

But at that moment, a thought suddenly struck him.

One of the disciples was destined to be a supporting character, not just an extra.

Name: Chu Xiyin

[Talent: Average aptitude (green), somewhat attractive (white), eloquent (white)]

[Cultivation Level: Mid-stage Fetal Breathing]

[Destiny: Seeking Longevity (Supporting Role)]

"The Divination of Longevity?"

"It's a new script!"

"It seems there are indeed many scripts in the world."

Wan Yi pretended to be nonchalant while queuing, secretly observing Chu Xiyin and pondering what was going on in his mind.

"The Divination of Longevity..."

"Just from the name, could it be that the protagonist's special ability can discern good and bad fortune?"

"Or does the protagonist know how to tell fortunes?"

Just from the title of the script, there's no way to know who the main character is.

Biyang Sect doesn't have a divination lineage at all, unlike "The Immortal Path of Array Inquiry," where you can immediately guess that the protagonist is in the Array Hall.

The protagonist of "Seeking Longevity through Divination" could be in any of the six outer halls.

They might not even be outer disciples; they could be inner disciples.

They could also be members of the Yinshan Society.

It could even be one of the disciples who set up a stall today.

Because the license was obtained from Chu Xiyin, she was given a role in the script.

However, no matter where the main character is, Chu Xiyin is a supporting character in this script. As long as you get to know her more, you will definitely be able to find traces of the main character.

There are always intricate connections between supporting characters and main characters.

At this point, it was Wan Yi's turn to join the group.

Chu Xiyin looked up, a sweet smile on her face, her voice soft and gentle, making one's heart melt: "Senior brother, do you want to exchange for a stall permit?"

Wan Yi nodded quickly and said with a smile, "That's right, thank you for your trouble, Junior Sister."

Chu Xiyin smiled and patiently explained, "Senior brother, you're too kind. To obtain a stall permit, you need to pay 100 contribution points as a deposit. After the meeting ends, you can use the recording stone to prove the transaction amount, and we will take 10% of the stall fee. Your deposit will then be refunded directly."

Wan Yi was speechless: "A deposit of 100 contribution points?"

As expected, the Yinshan Society would not allow its disciples any opportunity to take advantage of the situation and escape the booth fee.

But Wan Yi had no choice; he couldn't set up a stall without paying the deposit, so he had to deduct 100 contribution points from his jade token.

"No problem, I've paid the deposit. Thank you."

Chu Xiyin smiled and handed over a memory stone and a jade pendant.

The jade plaque is engraved with the three small characters "乙廿四".

She said gently, "Senior brother, here is your photo stone and stall sign. Your stall is number 24. Remember to keep the photo stone safe. Make sure to record the transaction, otherwise we won't be able to calculate the stall fee."

Wan Yi took the recording stone and jade token, put them into his storage bag, and said with a smile, "Thank you for reminding me, Junior Sister. I'll remember it."

……

Wan Yi found stall number 24 and displayed the items he wanted to sell.

The two old storage bags belonging to Xiong Bi and Xiong Fu contained a pile of talismans and several bottles of unused pills.

I must say, there were a lot of people at the Yinshan Small Gathering.

Before long, several outer disciples gathered around.

In less than half a day, Wan Yi had finished dealing with everything in his hands.

The two storage bags sold for 160 contribution points, and with the talismans and pills, I made a total of over 300 contribution points.

After paying 10% of the stall fee, you can still make 300 contribution points.

Adding the 1,200+ contribution points I already had, I would have over 1,500 contribution points in total.

That's great, I don't have to worry about the loan anymore.

Although the repayment date is still far away, Wan Yi De guarantees that it always has 1400 in hand, giving it the ability to repay at any time.

Otherwise, if you can't repay the loan by the due date, you'll fall into the trap of borrowing to pay off other loans.

That's a bottomless pit; once you fall in, you basically can't climb out.

Although Wan Yi can see the script and has foresight, even if he gets caught up in it, he can still seize a few opportunities to climb out.

But how much contribution would that be at stake?

We can't let the hard-earned contributions go to waste; it's better to be more cautious.

After selling his goods, Wan Yi didn't waste any time continuing to set up his stall, since he had sold out everything he wanted to sell.

With the photo stone in his pocket, he went to the Crescent Moon Pavilion to pay the stall fee and retrieved his deposit of 100 contribution points. Then he wandered around the Yinshan Small Meeting, looking for traces of a new script.
