I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 20 - : Qi Blood Pill (Seeking Follow-Up Reads)

Tian Lin and the others noticed that when the young master caressed the dog's head, his gaze was actually fixed on them.

They weren't sure if his words carried any implied meaning and quickly bowed their heads, clasping their fists in greeting, "Your humble servants have seen the young master."

The voice of the man in green rose, "Don't be afraid, I don't have the habit of feeding Little Black with living people. I didn't come here to kill today, just to see how well you've been mining this past month."

Manager Xu then came over, obsequiously saying, "Young Master, all the stones have been mined and are ready to be sent to Yao Yue Sect at any time."

The young master said, "There's no hurry to send the stones, I'm going to rest here for half a month."

Leading the big black dog, the young master walked towards the mine, leaving the maidservants who accompanied him behind.

A few steps out, he suddenly seemed to recall something and turned around to look at Tian Lin and the others, saying,

"Right, on my return to the sect this time, I'm considering taking someone with me to help at Yao Yue Sect. Although he can't become an Outer Disciple like me, he can still become a servant disciple. Though servant disciples can't cultivate Immortal Techniques, they have even more chances to be accepted into the immortal gate."

As soon as these words were spoken, Six Points immediately knelt down and loudly said, "Your humble servant Six Points is willing to toil like a dog or horse for the young master."

The young master laughed heartily and said, "The task of selecting someone to enter the sect will be left to Little Yue; if you want to show your loyalty, go find her. I don't care who I bring into the sect; as long as I find them agreeable, that's good enough."

Even as the young master's words drifted away and he left, Tian Lin and the others turned their gaze to the young lady in a blue long dress.

The girl looked at Tian Lin and the others, and just as Six Points was about to speak, the girl had already slapped Six Points across the face.

While Six Points was shocked and furious, the girl coldly said to him, "The young master doesn't like those who play clever tricks. If you want to show your loyalty in the future, better curb your ambitions first."

After receiving a slap, Six Points could only swallow his anger and lower his head in front of this girl, who was younger and shorter than him.

Manager Xu then sycophantically asked the girl, "Miss, is there any chance for your father to enter Yao Yue Sect as a servant disciple?"

The girl treated Manager Xu with the same indifference, coldly responding, "At your age, bringing you into the sect would just be trouble for the young master, wouldn't it?"

Not waiting for Manager Xu to plead, she cut him off, saying:

"Call back the several Supervisors who have been working for you outside; I will first test their abilities. If their qualifications and strength are good enough, then they can follow the young master into the sect for cultivation."

After saying this, she flicked her sleeves and strode confidently into the Supervisors' living quarters, heading up to the second floor.

Though she had gone up to the second floor, her voice echoed as though she was still on the ground floor:

"The young master's return to the mine today is a great joy for the merchant. Each Mine Slave present today gets an extra bowl of braised pork, consider it a grace from the young master. The money for the meat will come from me."

Her voice wasn't shouted out loud but resonated in the ears of all the Mine Slaves.

In an instant, the Mine Slaves at the site burst into cheering and jubilation.

Manager Xu, flushed with annoyance, scolded, "Just because you have meat to eat, does it mean you can stop working? Everyone, get back to work immediately. Anyone caught slacking will miss out on the meat."

Although the Mine Slaves were scolded, they weren't upset at that moment.

Thinking of the braised pork they would eat, they felt like they had endless energy and started to work vigorously and diligently.

Tian Lin and Da Liu were carrying the body of the Supervisor up the rear mountain, but Liu looked ahead at Da Liu and said,

"Brother, the girl will be selecting people for the sect based on strength. I'm afraid I and the fourth brother won't stand a chance; you and the big brother, however, might have a chance to compete."

He and Tian Lin were both third-rate experts; by convention, it was impossible for them to advance to second-rate or even first-rate experts in a short time.

Furthermore, considering talent, Tian Lin was only fourteen or fifteen years old and was already among the third-rate experts.

Even against Da Liu and Zhang Laoda, it would be difficult to claim they had more talent than Tian Lin.

"The opportunity to become a servant disciple is probably only contestable by the big brother and Leopard brother. Though they aren't young, to cultivate their Inner Strength to the first-rate level means they truly possess exceptional talent."

There were more than ten bodies of the Supervisors and the Workers, and it took five people two trips to finally dispose of all the bodies down the rear mountain.

The six o'clock crowd has become a lonely and desolate group, one that certainly wouldn't easily provoke Tian Lin and his friends now.

Furthermore, the young master of the merchant family has returned, and Xiao Yue intends to select individuals from among them to join Yao Yue Sect.

Compared to joining Yao Yue Sect, compared to currying favor with the young master of the merchant family, all past grudges are not worth mentioning.

Watching Ban Deng and Liudian descend the back mountain, Tian Lin gazed into the abyss of the Heavenly Pit below the cliff and said somberly, "Who would have thought, this mine is also the young master's dog kennel?"

When the big black dog was mentioned, Da Liu expressed lingering fear:

"If that dog were let out, I'm afraid it might have the cultivation of a first-rate expert, right? And that girl called Xiao Yue, do you guys think she's in the Grandmaster Realm, or like her father, someone who relies on Immortal Techniques to achieve a strong physique?"

"It should be Immortal Techniques."

Envy flashed in Da Liu's eyes as he said, "Inner Qi, True Qi, a world of difference lies in a single word. I don't desire immortality, I just want to see what the True Qi cultivated by immortals is really like."

Tian Lin had been silent the whole way, only picking a few more Soul Burying Flowers on the way back.

According to this Xiao Yue, she will choose from among everyone those who have talent and strength to enter Yao Yue Sect.

Although young, I'm only a third-rate expert and probably insignificant in Xiao Yue's eyes.

But what if I were a second-rate or even a first-rate expert?

Among all the supervisors in the mine, who is younger than me?

When that time comes, who would dare to claim a higher talent than mine?

"Half a month; that's more than enough time."

Tian Lin thought to himself, hiding the Soul Burying Flowers in his pocket, and returned to the mines with Da Liu and Xiao Liu.

At this time, the mine had finished its shift; beside the two large pots usually filled with hot porridge, now there was also a large wooden barrel.

A mine slave, drawn by the scent of meat, came with a bowl to the wooden barrel only to be fended off by the chubby cook with her ladle.

The chubby cook scolded, "What are you getting so close for, letting your drool fall into the bathing barrel, will others still want to eat?"

The mine slave laughed instead of getting angry, excitedly saying, "I smelled your scent in this barrel, aunty, that's why I drooled. Tell us honestly, aunty, is this your own bathing barrel?"

A group of mine slaves laughed, but Tian Lin frowned as he approached the barrel.

[Defective Qi Blood Pill: Used by cultivators in the early stages to temper the body, these elixirs have become defective due to mistakes in their concoction, offering a minuscule benefit for body strengthening but are still edible]

Tian Lin stared at the braised meat in the barrel, lost in thought, while the fawning aunty beside him offered, "Supervisor Tian, would you like to try a bowl first?"

This was the privilege of a supervisor, others could not object.

Tian Lin turned to look at the mine slaves behind him, noticing everyone looking at him pitifully and swallowing their saliva, but no one dared to speak out.

Tian Lin smiled and said, "Just save a bowl for me later; I'm afraid there might not be enough for everyone else."

The mine slaves breathed a sigh of relief, all uttering insincerely, "Supervisor Tian, eat if you want; a bit of braised meat, what's it worth? You can't eat that much anyway."

Their words were ridiculously insincere; even if braised meat was nothing special for rich families, for these mine slaves constantly struggling with thin porridge, it was a rare delicacy, almost unavailable even during New Year's.

Tian Lin smiled and shook his head as he returned to his cabin, where Da Liu watched Tian Lin with a smile:

"You really crave meat, I'll share some with you later, but it wouldn't be good to compete with the mine slaves now. Firstly, those mine slaves have suffered too long, no need to rob them of a bite of meat and breed hatred. Secondly, that meat was bought by Miss Xiao Yue for everyone; taking advantage of her generosity might not settle well with her."

Tian Lin nodded and responded, "Second brother, rest assured, I know what's important."

Imagine, someone like Xiao Liu who would fight over thin porridge, wouldn't scramble for braised meat today--is it because he has become self-respecting since becoming a supervisor?

Or is it because there's a living bodhisattva staying on the second floor, making him afraid to act recklessly?
