I Am Immortal In The Cultivation World

Xiaozhengzi took out a silver note from his cuff, fifty taels of denomination.

"When I have free time, I will go to Eunuch Zhu, the prison supervisor, and directly say to buy Yirong ointment, ten taels of silver per set, and five sets will be enough for half a year."

"Thank you Zhengzi for your advice."

Zhou Yi bowed and took the bank note, and the hurdle in front of him was over.

As for agreeing to do things for Xiaozhengzi, it sounds inferior, and I don't feel ashamed.

Zhou Yi was self-aware, and he was a poor man with mud legs. In the past years, when the guards went to the village to collect grain, they often kowtowed and begged, just to keep a handful of grain.

To be alive is better than anything else!

Xiaoyuanzi said: "Xiao Yizi, don't worry, it's not doing anything dangerous, just write down what you hear and see when you're on duty."

"Uh-huh."

Zhou Yi nodded again and again, while being obedient, he also thought carefully in private.

As long as we live long enough to kill all the benefactors and enemies in the palace, wouldn't we be debt-free and light-hearted?

Peasant cunning!

He continued to walk behind, but the relationship between the three became much closer at once. Zhou Yi felt that he had integrated into the circle, and Xiaozhengzi and Xiaoyuanzi's words were not as cold as before.

After practicing in the afternoon, Zhou Yi went to Duzhi Prison.

Eunuch Zhu is a very old eunuch, his fat body squeezed into the chair, I don't know if it is true.

Zhou Yi mentioned Xiaozhengzi, and Eunuch Zhu didn't hesitate, and sold five packs of off-white ointment.

When it is applied on the face, the complexion is pale and gray, and when it is washed in water, the black hair turns gray, and the age suddenly becomes much older.

Looking in the mirror, as long as you are not an acquaintance, you can't tell the exact age.

"It's safe for now!"

Zhou Yi was a little relieved, leaving early and returning late to practice hard.

The disguise technique is not without flaws, one day the secret will be exposed, relying on strong skills may be able to break out of the palace.

Talk to Xiaozhengzi and Xiaoyuanzi on weekdays, ask for advice on how to live a long life in the palace, record the experience gained in the book, and recite it three times in the morning, noon and evening.

"Listen less and watch less, don't talk and don't do anything, bend over when you meet people!"

"Give half of the monthly bill to the steward, remember not to give it directly to the Grand Duke!"

"The nobleman kowtows a lot when he speaks, the true energy condenses on his forehead, and blood oozes out."

"Pretend to be a son, find a godfather..."

Zhou Yi memorized dozens of items, and recited them back and forth to ensure that they will be remembered at any time.

Spring goes and autumn comes.

Half a year passed in a blink of an eye.

A group of servants came to watch the palace supervisor, and Zhou Yi was among them, not moving forward or backward.

Counting one by one, there were 43 students in the class last year, but now there are only 37 students left, and six of them died before they were assigned duties.

"I don't know if it's someone killing someone, or practicing the exercises!"

Zhou Yi bowed his head and shrank inconspicuously among the crowd, observing the servant in front to test his true energy.

The guard on duty poked a fine steel pillar in the middle, and the servants condensed their true energy to slap on it, and judged the quality according to the palm prints left, and then the admiral Xu Gonggong assigned the duties.

Boom! Boom! Boom...

A series of applause sounded from the supervisor on duty, deep or shallow, leaving palm prints.

Among them, the deepest one has two or three points, and the shallow one has one point. If it hits an ordinary person, it will definitely kill you. It's just one year of practice.

After ten years of cultivating the Epiphyllum Collection, you will either be invincible in the world, or die at the end of your life.

When it was Zhouyi's turn to test, he only used 10% of his true energy, leaving a minute and a half of palm prints on the fine steel pillar.

"good."

Eunuch Xu nodded slightly, looked Zhou Yi up and down, unlike the servants in front who assigned duties directly, he stretched out his male duck voice and said, "Jiangxuexuan in the Imperial Garden lacks a guard, you can go."

"Thank you, Eunuch Xu."

Zhou Yi was puzzled, but he knelt down very fast, and kowtowed like a drum.

"Jie jie jie..."

Eunuch Xu let out a piercing and strange smile: "No wonder you can fall into the eyes of Eunuch Wen. He is indeed a polite man. Our family still lacks a godson. Would you like it?"

Zhou Yi only hesitated for a moment, thinking of Xiao Xizi's expression before he died, and then he really said, "Godfather!"

"Eh."

Eunuch Xu agreed, and said: "Go down first, I will come to find my godfather in the evening, and I have something good to arrange for you."

"Thank you godfather."

Zhou Yi kowtowed a few more times, ignoring the envious eyes of the other servants, and bowed away from the guard on duty.

Later, the servants who tested their palm strength also kowtowed like Zhou Yi, but unfortunately, none of them could be seen by Eunuch Xu, because they did not have Eunuch Wen to support them.

Who is Eunuch Wen, so is Mr. Study!

Zhou Yi came out from the guard on duty and stood in front of the fence for a long time, taking deep breaths to calm down.

There is both the pressure of Eunuch Xu's scrutiny, and the excitement of assigning the imperial garden and being a godfather. With Eunuch Xu as his backer, he is not afraid of being bullied by the servants in the palace.

The servants on duty are responsible for the guards. The first-class boundaries are the Hall of Qinzheng and the Hall of Mental Cultivation. The two palaces are often accompanied by His Majesty, and it is very easy to get promoted.

The second is the Qianqing Palace, the Palace of the Favorite Concubine, the Imperial Garden and other land boundaries. His Majesty will show up from time to time.

The other palaces don't see His Majesty several times a year, which belong to the third class. As for the lowest class, they patrol the palace walls, and they almost never see His Majesty for a lifetime.

Zhou Yi was about to leave, and went to the study to kowtow to Eunuch Wen, when a friendly voice came from behind him.

"Brother Yi, we haven't seen each other for a long time!"

The person who spoke was Xiao Kangzi, a classmate of Zhou Yi's. He just ranked in the top five in the palm strength test and was assigned to Jingyang Palace.

Jingyang Palace used to be the residence of the Supreme Emperor, but the Supreme Emperor had long since passed away, and there was no one in the Jingyang Palace, His Majesty would not be idle to think about the past.

It is rumored that the relationship between His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor is bad, almost to the point of swordsmanship, after all, it is even better today.

Zhou Yi asked, "What's the matter with Xiaokangzi?"

Xiao Kangzi took out a bank note from his cuff, and said flatteringly in his voice, "It's nothing else, brother Yi will get rich in the future, so don't forget our classmate."

Zhou Yi glanced at the denomination, one hundred taels!

Parents have worked hard for half their lives, working from dawn to dusk, and only saved five pennies. I don't have to do anything, and I can get one hundred pennies with my hands!

I couldn't help reaching out to pick it up, but retracted it in mid-air.

Zhou Yi suddenly remembered Xiaozhengzi's warning that there is plenty of money in the palace, what should be taken, what should not be taken, what can be taken and what cannot be taken, you should distinguish clearly.

If you get it wrong, you will die!

"Xiao Kangzi, let's not be so polite."

Zhou Yi withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and pretended to be enthusiastic and said: "In the future, if there is a chance, let's introduce you to my godfather, and I will be transferred to a good place as an errand!"

Cake painting skills, self-taught!

No matter how much food can be produced in the field, blow out the cowhide first, who knows what will happen after autumn!

"Thank you, Eunuch Yi."

Xiao Kangzi bowed and nodded, looking quite funny, but it made Zhou Yi feel the pleasure of power for the first time.

The word father-in-law is not an ordinary servant's title, one must have a full-time job and rank.

This is just Eunuch Xu's godson, how prestige will he be in the position of Eunuch Xu in the future?

Zhou Yi has already begun to imagine being promoted to the admiral, and in the future, he will receive dozens of godsons, who are majestic and majestic. All the food servants who bullied him in the past will be sent to the sky prison one by one.

After all, he was poor since he was a child, and he didn't have much knowledge. Reading is limited to literacy.

After being cautious for half a year, once he gains power and is praised by others, he will feel like he is flying.

Come to the study.

Zhou Yi stood at the door and waited quietly. After the literate servant left, he pushed the door in and knelt down and kowtowed.

"Thank you sir for your cooperation!"

"Jie jie jie!"

Eunuch Wen's eyes rolled, and his voice changed: "Today, the person who kowtowed today is not as careful as before, but it is true, who in this palace can have sincerity?"

Zhou Yi looked terrified, he didn't understand the meaning of the words, but he could hear that Eunuch Wen was unhappy.

Eunuch Wen can make Eunuch Xu accept his son, and he can also take it back with one sentence, knocking Zhou Yi from the sky to the ground, and losing the power he just gained.

Eunuch Wen waved his hands: "Get out, get out."

How could Zhou Yi dare to speak, he even scrambled away, and would have to walk around when he met Eunuch Wen in the future.

night.

Xiaozhengzi and Xiaoyuanzi came back and learned that Zhou Yi was on duty in the Imperial Garden, and recognized Eunuch Xu as godfather, and they all expressed their congratulations.

"The fifty taels don't have to be paid back."

Xiao Zhengzi said: "Brother Yi, when you are on duty, remember what His Majesty says and does, and tell me when you come back."

Zhou Yi nodded and agreed: "We remember."

Your Majesty doesn't go to the Imperial Garden every day, and he doesn't necessarily go to Jiangxuexuan when he goes, but there are not many things he can see and hear. If you really hear something secret, just hide it and pretend you didn't hear it.

...

the next day.

Zhou Yi changed into brand new clothes, and went to the Imperial Garden with a badge on his waist.

After six rounds of inspections in a row, Zhou Yi was let in, and followed the guidance of the guard on duty to Jiangxuexuan.

The servants on duty heard that Zhou Yi was the godson of Eunuch Xu, all of them looked respectful, and told the secrets of the guards, how to be lazy and fish, how to prevent dozing off and so on.

Jiang Xuexuan.

Located in the southeast corner of the Imperial Garden, it is a palace leaning against the city wall.

The seat faces east and west, and is five rooms wide.

The so-called crimson snow is not real snow, but several century-old begonias in front of the hall, whose petals are like red snow when they fall.

A total of 18 internal servants were on duty in Jiangxuexuan, four at the gate, ten around the door of the five rooms, and four for steles and stone pavilions.

Zhou Yi stood beside the stone pavilion, with a wide view and no one around, so he was quite relaxed.

On duty for ten days in a row.

There are only servants in the imperial garden. Zhou Yi goes to stand guard in the afternoon, returns to his room at sunset, and goes to the practice room to practice Epiphyllum in the morning.

until the eleventh day.

Standing under the pavilion, Zhou Yi was thinking about how to move his true qi, when he suddenly heard a male duck's voice.

"His Majesty is here!"

All the servants knelt down and waited quietly for His Majesty to pass by.

It was May.

Begonias are in full bloom, in clusters, like clouds and snow.

Four old eunuchs lead the way in front, and His Majesty walks like a dragon and a tiger. Behind, more than a dozen servants are holding fans, holding flags, or carrying various utensils.

After His Majesty passed by, Zhou Yi saw the other servants get up, and he also stood up.

I can't help but secretly regret that I only saw a broad back, but I couldn't see His Majesty's true face.

When I was a child, I often heard my father tell me that His Majesty is like a god in the temple. When he sees a real person, he is a god who descends to the earth. He can become a great success with just a word, and make his ancestors shine.

Zhou Yi once asked, why does His Majesty ignore corrupt officials?

Father told him that His Majesty has too many territories to manage, so bear with it slowly and wait, it will always be our turn to take care of us!

After a while.

His Majesty climbed up to the second floor and admired the snow-covered begonias. Perhaps he was thinking of something happy, so he let out a hearty laugh.

Zhou Yi bowed and stood beside the stone pavilion, and glanced towards the second floor out of the corner of his eyes. After more than two years in the palace, he finally saw His Majesty's true face.

The beard and hair are white and the face is clear.

Wearing a golden crown of shining wings and a shining nine-dragon robe, with deep eye sockets, there is an inexplicable majesty between Gu Pan.

Emperor Hongwu.

Today is the thirty-two year of Hongwu.

Emperor Hongwu stayed in the imperial garden for an hour, and most of the time he enjoyed the flowers in Jiangxuexuan, but unfortunately his voice was too low, so Zhou Yi only listened to the content intermittently.

Northern Border, Aliens, Covenant, etc...

back to the residence.

Before Zhou Yi could speak to Xiao Zhengzi, Eunuch Xu's godson came over and asked about what he saw and heard today.

"Brother Yun, His Majesty is in Jiangxuexuan..."

Xiao Yunzi wrote it down carefully, and took out the bank note from his cuff: "Godfather said that you did a good job, this bank note is safe to keep, and you can send someone to take it back to your hometown in Wannian County."

Zhou Yi was slightly taken aback, and bowed in the direction of the supervisor on duty: "Thank you godfather."

After receiving the bank note, before Xiao Yunzi left, he stuffed it back.

"Brother Yun is always by my godfather's side, please give me a few kind words, this is our little wish!"

"It's easy to talk about."

Xiao Yunzi nodded in satisfaction, skillfully put away the bank notes, and disappeared in an instant with light footsteps like ghosts.

Zhou Yi showed heartache, went back to the house, and asked.

"Brother Zheng, why did the sound transmission ask us to return the reward money that we finally got?"

Xiaozhengzi said: "Little Yunzi has a gloomy temperament and a narrow mind. If you don't give me any favors, I will speak ill of you to Eunuch Xu later!"

Suddenly, Zhou Yi bowed and said, "Thank you Brother Zheng, your Majesty today..."

"Just heard it."

Xiaozhengzi said: "Let's teach you a method of listening to breathing. The vital energy circulates in the acupoints of both ears, which can improve hearing ability, and you will be able to hear what His Majesty said clearly in the future."

Zhou Yi wrote down the exercises carefully, and tried to circulate his true energy in his ears, when he suddenly felt various sounds coming from all directions.

There are whispers, snoring and teeth grinding, creaking beds, wind blowing leaves, birds and insects...

Noisy and noisy pierced into the ears, and the noisy chest was stuffy and dizzy.

He quickly withdrew his true energy from his ears, the voice disappeared immediately, and Zhou Yi slowly recovered.

"It's the first time I practice the method of listening and resting. It's uncomfortable to hear the crowd's voice, just practice more frequently."

Xiao Yuanzi said: "Brother Yi's zhenqi is shallow, he can only listen to three or four zhang, but in the future, his zhenqi is strong, and he can listen to more than ten zhang away!"

There are many walls and trees in the palace, and it is difficult for the sound to spread far. It is already extraordinary to be able to hear the words behind the three-foot-long outer wall by listening to the breath.

Zhou Yi didn't refute aloud, just now he heard Xiaokangzi's words, Ding Jiushe was at least twenty feet away from his Bingsanshe, which showed the strength of his true energy.

"Brother Zheng, Brother Yuan, the method of listening and breathing is not like ordinary martial arts, where did you learn it?"

"Daqing Buddhist Scripture Pavilion!"

Xiaozhengzi said: "The servant has been on duty for three years, and he can go to the Sutra Pavilion to choose a skill. Among them, martial arts are all-encompassing, and there is everything, and the method of listening and resting is one of them."

Zhou Yi wondered: "Why not choose a powerful trick?"

Xiaoyuanzi explained: "The palace is the safest place in the world. It's useless for us to learn the trick, but the method of listening to breath is quite useful. Knowing more information, we can also deal with it in advance."

"I see."

Zhou Yi still had doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask. At least for now, Xiaozhengzi and Xiaoyuanzi were harmless.

Since then.

Zhou Yi was on duty in the imperial garden, using the method of listening and breathing to listen to the sounds from all directions.

At the beginning, it can hear twenty feet, one year later it can hear forty feet, and two years later it can hear sixty feet, almost covering the entire imperial garden.

No sound can escape, but instead of getting top-secret information, I heard the servant maid who was meeting privately in the rockery.

The extravagant voice made Zhou Yi blush.

"What a pair of dogs and men, don't be shy like this!"
