Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 77: The Ocean of Books
Chapter 77: Chapter 77: The Ocean of Books
"Everyone disperse!"
Finally, Li Yunjing gave an order and went to find an empty wooden house to settle in.
"Brother Li, are you in?"
The next day, just as Li Yunjing woke up, a deep voice came from outside the door.
"Squeak!"
Li Yunjing pushed open the door and looked at the visitor, not recognizing him, but seeing that he was also dressed as an Outer Disciple.
"Brother, who are you?"
Li Yunjing asked.
"I am Yan Dingzhi, the steward of the first duty squad."
The visitor smiled gently and introduced himself.
"Oh! So it’s Steward Yan, please come in!"
Li Yunjing nodded and invited him into his house.
This wooden house was built well, with three rooms and a living room, totaling about one hundred fifty square meters, enough to entertain a friend without any problem.
"Brother Yan comes to visit, is there something you need? If so, please just instruct me!"
After inviting the guest to sit down, Li Yunjing personally made a cup of tea for Yan Dingzhi and spoke boldly.
"Hahaha! There’s no big deal, but there’s a matter of mutual benefit that I want to discuss with Brother Li."
Seeing Li Yunjing being so sensible, Yan Dingzhi smiled, took a sip of tea, and started speaking.
"Brother Yan, please go ahead!"
Li Yunjing nodded slightly and continued to ask.
"It’s like this! On the first floor of our ’Scripture Pavilion,’ there are two squads on duty, normally rotating every three days."
"For us cultivators, this is actually rather troublesome. Rotating every three days, whether for cultivation or doing other things, time is insufficient."
Pausing for a moment, seeing that Li Yunjing was listening attentively, Yan Dingzhi continued: "Earlier, the leaders of our two squads discussed a solution: one squad would be on duty for half a month, then the other squad would take over. This way, during our off time, we can have half a month to ourselves."
"Both sides will have enough time to do their own things."
"This time, the second squad is led by Brother Li, so I naturally have to come over and discuss this with you. What do you think, Brother Li?"
After speaking, Yan Dingzhi looked directly at Li Yunjing, eager to know his thoughts.
As Yan Dingzhi said, changing the rotation time in the past had indeed benefited both squads greatly.
"Hmm! If this is the usual practice, then everything will go as usual!"
Considering this to be a good method, Li Yunjing agreed after thinking for a moment.
Cultivators have abundant energy, being on duty for half a month is nothing. Having the off-time together to concentrate on cultivation is certainly a good thing!
Li Yunjing found no reason to refuse and agreed readily!
"Good! Brother Li is straightforward! Then everything will go as usual. Tomorrow is the handover between our two squads, and the next time our squad takes over will be in fifteen days!"
Yan Dingzhi’s face lit up with joy, Li Yunjing was straightforward!
He was worried that the sect might assign them an idiot who wouldn’t know how to be flexible, which would create a lot of trouble.
Obviously, Li Yunjing was not such a person; he was a smart man.
Smart people choose the methods within the rules that benefit them the most.
After discussing business, Yan Dingzhi talked about some matters of the ’Scripture Pavilion.’ Near noon, when Li Yunjing wanted to invite him for lunch, Yan Dingzhi excused himself and left.
It was their first meeting, and their relationship wasn’t yet familiar enough for that.
Being a considerate person, Yan Dingzhi wouldn’t do something so unrefined as to overstay his welcome.
After seeing Yan Dingzhi off, Li Yunjing called Su Guo over to ask him about what Yan Dingzhi had said.
"Steward Li, that’s right! We used to have one squad on duty for half a month, which benefited everyone."
Su Guo’s words made Li Yunjing entirely relieved.
"Hmm, and the higher-ups don’t mind?"
Finally, Li Yunjing asked.
"It’s fine! The higher-ups follow the same practice. Everyone’s cultivation time is insufficient, and fragmenting their own time would be a waste, not helping cultivation at all, just wasting time."
Su Guo said nonchalantly.
"I see! Then everything will go as usual, rotating shifts with the other squad, one squad on duty for half a month!"
Since it was the usual practice, Li Yunjing nodded. He had no reason to object.
Early the next morning, Li Yunjing gathered his team members and headed to the Central Treasure Tower.
That was the most important place of ’Brocade Peak,’ the ’Scripture Pavilion.’
The entire ’Scripture Pavilion’ was a nine-story tower.
Li Yunjing and his team were only allowed into the first floor.
Upon arriving, Li Yunjing presented his identity token again.
The first floor of the tower had a unique operational system; identity information had to be recorded to register as a manager, allowing free entry to the first floor.
The space on the first floor of the tower was vast, covering ten acres. Inside, the books were like mountains, neatly arranged row by row, column by column.
This place was simply an ocean of books.
Smelling the scent of ink and books, Li Yunjing felt invigorated.
How wonderful it was to have so many books available for him to read!
Especially after being struck by lightning, his brain had been developed to an extraordinary degree; his memory was remarkable, his intellect exceptional, making him enjoy dealing with these complex books even more.
The second duty squad, familiar with the routines, seamlessly took over from the first squad, meticulously ensuring no book was missing.
Meanwhile, Li Yunjing and Yan Dingzhi, the two stewards, sat in a quiet corner watching their subordinates work while engaging in idle chatter.
As the two Outer Sect Stewards said, this really was an easy job...
"Brother Li, farewell! We’ll meet again in half a month!"
Once the handover was complete and confirmed to be trouble-free, Yan Dingzhi bade farewell, leading his group to enjoy their leisure.
With fifteen days off, there were plenty of things to do...
However, Li Yunjing did not change his team’s work assignments.
Everything went as usual, with some responsible for recording borrowed books, some for deducting contribution points, some organizing the shelves, and others cleaning...
In short, everyone got busy.
In the second duty squad, only Li Yunjing was left idle without tasks.
Such a leisurely job made Li Yunjing’s mood much more relaxed, and he always had a faint smile on his face.
Without disturbing others’ work, Li Yunjing started reading from the beginning of the book ocean. fгeewebnovёl.com
"Great Ming Dynasty Chronicles," "Hundred Skills of Cultivation," "Basic Techniques of Artifact Refining," "Rational Use of Spirit Stones," "Exotic Flower and Herb Recognition"...
Li Yunjing searched from the first row of the eastern shelf, here were the most basic items.
There were no fellow disciples coming to borrow these books, as observed by Li Yunjing, those who did were mostly interested in magic and cultivation techniques.
