Chapter 347 Adult cultivators certainly want them all.
If the two-layered repair paper was a handicraft workshop, then the three-layered jade slip was a spiritual power-based accounting system for data entry.
It's so familiar it brings back fond memories.
The only problem is that it's too quiet.
It was so quiet that he could only have tea in a private room in the west corner.
It was so quiet that no one came to ask him where the bookshelf was.
It was so quiet that Lin Wanqing's booklet didn't pop out from the side.
After finishing carving a piece of jade, Mo Chengyue looked up at the direction of the stairs.
no one.
He looked back.
well.
Less interaction, less recording, less hassle.
He lowered his head and continued working.
But after a moment, he looked up again.
Still no one.
Mo Chengyue put the jade piece down and mentally prepared himself.
People need to adapt to changes in their job positions.
The second floor has its own liveliness, and the third floor has its own tranquility.
Adult monks must learn to stand guard independently.
I can't keep thinking about whether my junior sister has osmanthus cake in her sleeve.
This is immature.
Very immature.
At this moment, Gu Yanqiu walked over from the main desk.
"What are you looking at?"
Mo Chengyue said, "Look at the flowing light of the restriction."
Gu Yanqiu followed his gaze to the stairs.
"There are no restrictions on the light flowing over the stairs."
Mo Chengyue calmly changed his tune.
"The disciple is observing the movement of people."
Gu Yanqiu said, "No one will be coming up to deliver the book to the second floor today."
Mo Chengyue said, "This disciple did not ask."
Gu Yanqiu said, "You watched it three times."
Mo Chengyue remained silent for a moment.
Three layers of danger.
The people here are not only highly skilled, but also have excellent memories.
Gu Yanqiu placed a new jade slip on his desk.
"This one has been replaced as well."
Mo Chengyue accepted it.
"Yes."
Gu Yanqiu said, "If you want to go to the second floor, you can return the roster later."
Mo Chengyue replied, "It is my duty, and I am willing to go."
Gu Yanqiu looked at him.
"Don't bring the osmanthus cake up."
Mo Chengyue looked up.
"What makes you say that, Senior Brother Gu?"
Gu Yanqiu said, "Lin Wanqing has tried it before."
Mo Chengyue asked, "And then?"
Gu Yanqiu said, "Elder Chen punished her by making her clean the bookshelf for half a month."
Mo Chengyue's tone was heavy.
"This should serve as a warning to others."
Gu Yanqiu asked, "So you knew she could hide it?"
Mo Chengyue said, "This disciple is merely making a reasonable deduction."
Gu Yanqiu turned and left.
"Be a little less reasonable."
Mo Chengyue lowered his head to finish the jade slip, almost unable to suppress his laughter.
The third floor is indeed quiet.
But it's not entirely boring.
Before dusk, Mo Chengyue went through the indexes of the two rows of jade cabinets on the east side and then registered the jade slips that had been completed that day.
Xu Qingluo peeked out as she passed by.
"Wow, that was quick."
Mo Chengyue said, "Jade slips are more convenient than paper."
Xu Qingluo asked, "Can your true essence withstand it?"
Mo Chengyue said, "It's acceptable."
Xu Qingluo said, "Don't be so modest. An ordinary newly promoted Golden Core cultivator who has been replenishing for so long should have gone to the private room to drink spiritual water long ago."
Mo Chengyue said, "This disciple has just drunk some."
Xu Qingluo asked, "How many drinks did you have?"
Mo Chengyue said, "Half a cup."
Xu Qingluo looked in Gu Yanqiu's direction.
"Senior Brother Gu, he's even afraid of leaving a trace when he drinks water."
Mo Chengyue said, "Senior sister, this is called self-control."
Xu Qingluo said, "That's called professional self-preservation."
Mo Chengyue said, "Any professional habit that can save your life deserves respect."
Gu Yanqiu said from afar, "That's all for today."
Mo Chengyue immediately stood up.
"May I leave duty?"
Gu Yanqiu said, "Send the list of returnees to the second floor first."
Mo Chengyue said, "This disciple will go immediately."
Xu Qingluo raised an eyebrow as she watched how quickly he packed his things.
"You were just saying it was necessary for your duty, why are you walking so lightly now?"
Mo Chengyue picked up the roster, his expression solemn.
"Senior sister misunderstands. I'm just being proactive in my work."
Xu Qingluo said, "Then could you deliver the portion from the magic section for me as well?"
Mo Chengyue paused for a moment.
"If Senior Brother Gu permits."
Gu Yanqiu said, "No."
Mo Chengyue immediately said, "It's a pity."
Xu Qingluo laughed and scolded.
"You regret it too soon."
Mo Chengyue bowed and took his leave, carrying the roster as he headed for the stairs.
The three doors closed behind them, and the sounds from the second floor gradually rose from below.
Someone asked about the location of the exercise.
Some people were arguing quietly about the notes and annotations.
And then there's Lin Wanqing's sweet voice, quietly reminding others not to put their books upside down among the bookshelves.
When Mo Chengyue reached the corner on the second floor, Lin Wanqing was looking up while holding a stack of books.
When she saw him, her dimples immediately appeared.
"Senior Brother Mo, you're down here?"
Mo Chengyue held up the roster.
"As required by duty."
Lin Wanqing jogged over.
"How about the third floor?"
Mo Chengyue thought for a moment.
"Quiet, behave, and don't copy by hand."
Lin Wanqing blinked.
"You're most satisfied with the last sentence, aren't you?"
Mo Chengyue said, "Junior Sister Lin, don't be too clever for your own good."
Lin Wanqing smiled and reached out to take the roster.
"Is Senior Brother Gu fierce?"
Mo Chengyue said, "It's not ominous."
Lin Wanqing asked, "Is it strict?"
Mo Chengyue said, "It's very strict."
Lin Wanqing then asked, "Isn't Senior Sister Xu very pretty?"
Mo Chengyue glanced at her.
How did you know?
Lin Wanqing held the roster in her arms.
"She always smells wonderful when she comes down, and she even brings me flower tokens."
Mo Chengyue said, "The Scripture Pavilion forbids the buying and selling of people's hearts."
Lin Wanqing said, "The flower token doesn't count as bribery, does it?"
Mo Chengyue said, "It depends on the purpose."
Lin Wanqing pressed down her cuffs.
"What about osmanthus cake?"
Mo Chengyue looked at her cuffs.
"You brought it again?"
Lin Wanqing immediately shook her head.
"no."
Mo Chengyue said, "The three layers of forbidden cakes were used by Elder Chen to punish people."
Lin Wanqing's face fell.
"Did Senior Brother Gu tell you?"
Mo Chengyue said, "There are no secrets in the Sutra Repository."
Lin Wanqing whispered, "Are you coming down again tomorrow?"
Mo Chengyue said, "If there is a list of names to be returned."
Lin Wanqing asked, "What if there isn't one?"
Mo Chengyue said, "Then let's see if the third floor has returned the register."
Lin Wanqing's eyes crinkled into a smile.
"Senior Brother Mo's words were roundabout, but he really just means he'll come down."
Mo Chengyue said, "Junior sister, please write down that the third-floor guards should take their duties seriously and the second-floor fellow disciples should cooperate enthusiastically."
Lin Wanqing took out the booklet.
"Could you please write down how well Senior Brother Mo adapted today?"
Mo Chengyue thought for a moment.
"Can."
Lin Wanqing then asked, "Could you write that Senior Brother Mo misses the Second Floor?"
Mo Chengyue said, "No."
Lin Wanqing asked, "Then is Senior Brother Xie Mo concerned about matters on the second floor?"
Mo Chengyue said, "It's barely acceptable."
Lin Wanqing lowered her head and wrote a couple of strokes, then suddenly looked up.
"Senior Brother Mo."
Mo Chengyue said, "Hmm?"
Lin Wanqing said, "There are fewer people on the third floor, so don't overwork yourself."
Mo Chengyue was stunned for a moment.
This girl can be so gossipy that you want to seal the booklet away in a safe, and at other times she's so attentive that you can't pretend you didn't hear her.
He shifted his gaze to the bookshelf next to him.
"understood."
Lin Wanqing asked, "You really know?"
Mo Chengyue said, "I will cherish my life."
Lin Wanqing nodded earnestly.
"This sentence can be written."
Mo Chengyue immediately said, "No."
Lin Wanqing had already lowered her head and started writing.
"Senior Brother Mo said today that he will cherish his life."
Mo Chengyue watched her finish writing and sighed.
"Junior Sister Lin, you will become the most dangerous person in the Scripture Pavilion sooner or later."
Lin Wanqing held the booklet and smiled sweetly.
Elder Chen said, "I'm serious."
Mo Chengyue said, "Elder Chen's definition of danger is clearly different from mine."
Gu Yanqiu's voice could be faintly heard coming from upstairs.
"Mo Chengyue, after the handover is complete, return to the third floor to finish up."
Mo Chengyue looked up and responded.
"I'll be right there."
Lin Wanqing carefully put away the roster.
"Go quickly, Senior Brother Gu has a very good memory."
Mo Chengyue said, "I have already sensed it."
Lin Wanqing waved.
See you tomorrow.
Mo Chengyue walked up the stairs, his steps slowing down by half a breath compared to when he came.
The third floor is quiet, while the second floor is lively.
One is suitable for longevity, and the other is suitable for reminding people that they are still alive.
Mo Chengyue sighed inwardly.
Adult monks do not make a choice.
The best strategy is to be able to survive on both sides.
He returned to the third-floor gate and pressed the forbidden mark onto the token.
A light shone from inside the door, but the rules remained strict.
Mo Chengyue straightened his sleeves, reverting to his harmless, guard-like expression.
From today onwards, he will be on temporary duty at the third level.
Don't copy books, supplement jade slips, speak less, keep more accounts.
As for trouble.
It's best not to come.
When you arrive, go find Senior Brother Gu first.
