Chapter 7
"Get online quickly and help me take on a disciple!"
The team channel fell silent for a minute, and Ye Rensheng suddenly felt a bit nervous, though he did not know what exactly he was nervous about
The two agreed to be online every day from 6:30 PM to 11:00 PM. After a week of this, it is difficult to determine who the real drag is.
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: 200 taels
She stared gloomily at the line of ellipses, repeatedly savoring his earlier words. Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind: Did Linghu say this... ? ... Was he actually just hoping to have her join in with her friends?
Is there any need to ask? Giving three thousand taels of silver to a stranger, which woman would be so generous and foolish...
Hello
[Team] Flower King: (smirking expression) This is your obedient disciple, huh? Come on, quickly call me sister
Of course, she would not honestly admit that she is lost
Ye Rensheng hesitated as she entered the dungeon. Apart from her and Linghu, the other three were all at maximum level. Clearing a level 50 dungeon was as easy as drinking water. Moreover, ever since she received three thousand taels of silver from Linghu, Ye Rensheng felt confident buying loaches, allowing her to boldly place orders with the unscrupulous merchant Yun Mo Yun. Healing was also quick and efficient. After running through the dungeon three times, Linghu quickly reached level 50.

[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Is that automatically generated by the system considered valid (╰╯) #
Ye Rensheng trembled
Sheng Sheng Li Ren: With this amount of money, you can hire a high-level character, and in just a few days, they will help you level up to eighty.
Because aside from not being able to make money, Ye Rensheng actually has another rather annoying flaw, which is... a poor sense of direction
Team: Linghu: Hello to you all
What are you doing, Da Sheng Niu?
At first, Linghu would remind her a few times, but later he simply became too lazy to type. By the time Ye Rensheng reacted, she had already ridden back on her chestnut pony, bouncing along.
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: A woman's intuition is indeed remarkable
At the same time, Ye Rensheng was quite suspicious of whether Ling Hu was truly a novice. Many operational aspects did not require her to mention, and although he explained that he had researched the official website's strategies while she was away during the day, he was simply too talented. At level 19, he had already defeated a level 22 Shadow Mage in a PK match, which made Ye Rensheng want to gouge out her own eyes.
Alright... you heartless person who has no regard for the opposite sex...
Why does her disciple speak so sharply? Could it be that he possesses the attributes of a sharp-tongued person
She suddenly felt quite unfortunate, realizing that he only remembered the vague promise they made about the library, assuming that she would agree to help him level up, and thus came rushing to her...
After a while
Ye Rensheng recalled the absurd misunderstanding from a few days ago, and instinctively began to scratch his head in front of the screen, feeling a sense of guilt.
Linghu said to you: I will take on tasks myself when I turn fifty, you go ahead and upgrade first
Ling Hu clearly could not be bothered to pay her any attention. Ye Rensheng was exceptional at dealing with monsters; although she played a healer role, she was more than capable in small dungeons, and it would be a miracle if she missed any monsters.
Linghu: Use your intuition to navigate the way.
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: ... ... Do you dare not to embarrass yourself = =
So you have another account after all
You all actually exchanged phone numbers, and it hasn't even been two months yet
... ...
[Team] Empty Storage Mage: Sheng Sheng, what have you been up to lately? You haven't said anything when you come online, and Hua Hua, ever since you got married, you haven't been online either
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Disciple, why haven't I seen you being this polite to me usually...
Thus began the days of being a burden
... ...
Whispers: Linghu says to you: ... ...
... ...
You quietly said to Linghu: I believe the greatest joy of playing games lies in playing with friends. If one is always pursuing fame and equipment alone, then it is the game that is playing you, rather than you playing the game.
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Piao = 3 =
Kao has joined the team
Ye Rensheng's lips twitched; this fellow, Da Hehua, was always so unserious. However, his own disciple had a cold demeanor, and the two had completely different styles. It was best to avoid any conflicts, so he quickly stepped in to mediate.
Ye Rensheng was taken aback. Could it be that her earlier words had angered her esteemed disciple? ... However ... ... it was not that she did not wish to advance. ... ... ... Rather, it was that having taken so much money from others, it would be truly inappropriate to just leave like this ...
The whisper from Linghu to you: ... ... is quite unique
The impoverished individual, Ye Rensheng, gazed at her meager possessions, barely exceeding 200 taels of silver, feeling a profound sense of helplessness. Although her operational skills were consistently excellent, she was utterly inept in practical life skills and possessed no business acumen whatsoever. The 200 taels of silver she had were entirely earned through completing tasks. Had it not been for the need to cooperate with herbal gathering for the spellcasting at Yuqing Hall, she likely would have been too lazy to learn any life skills at all
[Team] The Void Mage: Shengsheng's disciple is my disciple (grinning emoji)
The team: Linghu: It is female
If she could also practice a magic art, how wonderful it would be... Such resentment, such resentment
Linghu: Now I understand
Ye Rensheng, feeling helpless, had no choice but to transfer the team leader position to Lu Meihe. Before long, a notification appeared in the lower left corner of the system.
My family is on a business trip, and I am accompanying him with messages
Whisper: Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Of course, as long as you don't mind that I'm not at max level and still a healer, I definitely won't be as fast as Liu Yun and Tian Jian.
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: We are going to the novice village to receive a quest from Elder Liang and pay our respects to our master
Liu Hu whispered to you: It doesn't matter
The sun has risen from the north
Just as I had made up my mind, a dialog box suddenly appeared in front of me
Linghu: I was called when I became a disciple
Ye Rensheng was very conscious not to be a third wheel and focused on improving himself. Later, he heard others say that Lin Feng Ting Yu was a leader, a standard RMB player, and very generous towards Lu Mei He, frequently gifting her various divine mounts. Although Ye Rensheng felt that Lu Mei He had married rather hastily, he thought it inappropriate to comment too much on his friend's matters
Why isn't this NPC going to rob something!
Although it is not uncommon to encounter fallen angels who come to disrupt the game by killing the support characters, this was the first time she had died while farming monsters. Ye Rensheng was furious; she was already so delicate and nurturing, yet there were still people who mistook her for a male!
[Team] Flower King: Why are you getting hung up on such unproductive issues? Sister Linghu will take you to the dungeon.
Sheng Sheng Li Ren: I haven't even called Master before TAT
Ye Rensheng suddenly laughed, why, is there even a need to ask
Liu Hu: It's given by others, and I don't like it
Ye Rensheng was staring intently at these two lines of text when suddenly the scene shifted. They had exited the dungeon, and the screen transformed into a scenic progress bar of the dungeon exit. At this moment, it was peak gaming time, and Ye Rensheng's computer was lagging. By the time her screen transitioned to outside the dungeon, the four of them had already been waiting outside for quite a while
Ye Rensheng has died.
A wealthy individual! Absolutely a wealthy individual! I have never seen anyone spend three thousand taels of silver so casually, no matter how rich they are
[Team] Flower King: I am the Flowing Cloud (╰╯) # Do you think you can use a tank? Find a chance to bring them over.
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren
Ye Rensheng is quite indifferent; although taking on disciples comes with substantial prestige rewards, her primary objective is to reach the maximum level, and accepting disciples would significantly delay her progress
Sheng Sheng Li Ren: ... ... Recently, I haven't accompanied my disciples in dungeons and libraries, so I feel a bit embarrassed to call them.
Team: Sheng Sheng Li Ren
Ye Rensheng pressed the answer button
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Haven't you been maxed out by your family member Lin Feng? ... It's just a level 50 dungeon ...
Ye Rensheng waited in place for a while, suddenly feeling a bit disdainful of herself. After all, she was a level 80 character, yet she had to rely on a newcomer to cover the 200 taels of silver, which was indeed quite embarrassing. Therefore, she went to the warehouse owner's wife and sold off all the outdated items she had accumulated but was reluctant to discard. In the end, she managed to gather over 50 taels. This way, she could pay the apprenticeship fee. Since she wasn't spending on dungeons or buying equipment and mounts, her expenses were limited to some potions, and this amount of silver would be sufficient to support her for a while.
You whispered to Linghu: It's alright
The path just walked, she turned around to take on a task and no longer recognized it... Not being able to distinguish between east, south, west, and north is one thing, but in a basic dungeon where there is only one path leading straight through, she could also finish off the monsters and then walk back in reverse...
You whispered to Linghu: You find me too low-level TAT
Thus, Linghu also lay down dead
Sheng Sheng Li Ren: We have been playing together for a month, and you still don't know whether I am male or female
Thus, with the money in hand, the process of apprenticeship became remarkably swift. Ye Rensheng saw before her a man in novice attire, with black hair and dark eyes, handsome and tall. The words "Linghu" were prominently accompanied by the phrase "Sheng Sheng Li Ren's disciple." In that moment, she suddenly felt a profound sense of mission, as if she had the great responsibility of being a teacher for a day and a mother for a lifetime.
Linghu: Even bringing a secondary account requires spending money, you can take it first
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: There is no need to take me as your master
However, the atmosphere felt somewhat off
[Team] Piao Fairy: Sheng Sheng! Hua Hua! Long time no see! ( ^ o ^ ) / ~
Linghu did not speak, and Ye Rensheng was transported to the novice village. He searched for the small blue dot representing him on the mini-map and suddenly realized that he was right in front of Elder Liang.
[Team] Flower King: Little Gourd (pouting expression)
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Ah ha ha, I will go check if there are any monsters I missed (grinning emoji)
As they were typing, a few people had already run outside the dungeon, planning to clear it once more. Ye Rensheng chose to follow the Kōzō Mage. At that moment, he glanced around and saw that the other three had also chosen to follow the Kōzō Mage. The five of them ran in a line, resembling a little train, which was quite amusing, infuriating the Kōzō Mage who shouted and scolded them for being too lazy
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Hey mhetushu.com.com Hey, I have a disciple, Linghu is my disciple
Sister knows her limits
[Team] Linghu: How much do you need
The Fairy of the Gourd has joined the team
Team: Sheng Sheng Li Ren
Not far away, a handsome swordsman sat on a Qilin, holding a petite red-haired woman in his arms
She unexpectedly started rambling without realizing it
... ...
You whispered to Linghu: You are just like them, all my friends (grinning emoji)
Team: Linghu: Wait
You whispered to Linghu: Because we have known each other since we first entered the game, back then he was so clumsy and couldn't tank the monsters. The others were also new players, and no guild accepted us, so we formed a small group to tackle dungeons on our own, gradually leveling up, dying countless times, being hunted by the demon faction until we became martyrs at Demon Cliff, competing to see who could die the farthest... Haha, those days were truly miserable, but also the happiest.
As soon as the message was sent, Ye Rensheng felt a wave of jealousy wash over him. Unexpectedly, Linghu seemed to be oblivious to it. After half a minute, he suddenly sent two messages.
Thus, during one occasion when Ye Rensheng was single-handedly tackling a level 50 minor boss, Ling Hu asked a personal question unrelated to the game for the first time
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Well... heh, I'll just take you to run the dungeon directly = = It's too troublesome to become a disciple.
Wow, you haven't even reached the maximum level yet, what are you making excuses for to flirt with younger guys
Whispers: Linghu says to you: ... ...
[Team] Linghu: Why?
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Disciple, you must be a male.
Team: Flower King: You haven't reached the maximum level, so it doesn't matter if you don't go. Just give me the captain.
Where did you get the money from
Even though Linghu is such a cold person, after all, they share a master-disciple relationship. After spending so many days together, with Ye Rensheng being quite talkative, the two have finally become familiar with each other
Well, actually, it is taking advantage of others by receiving so much money without proper care, which would make her feel guilty...
Ye Rensheng was immediately moved. Although her own disciple was sharp-tongued and aloof, he was ultimately good to her. Thus, in a moment of impulse, she typed out a line of text
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren
Team: Linghu: Too lazy to look for it
It seems that after carefully examining the characters, they studied the names of their guilds, and Linghu unexpectedly sent a private message.
Ye Rensheng instinctively chose to agree, but was suddenly dazzled by the numbers on the coin counter.
You said to Linghu: Uh, I'm not forcing it... Anyway, our gang doesn't have much fame, and our progress in the exploration is not ahead either
Sister is not as lewd as you... By the way, why haven't you been playing the game recently
You are the one who lacks humanity towards the opposite sex, Ye Rensheng muttered as she hung up the phone. She had no idea who had disappeared after getting married in the game in a flash. Initially, she had leveled up with Lu Meihe and had a chance encounter with Lin Feng Ting Yu, who had taken them on a few runs. By the time Ye Rensheng returned from her three-day trip, she found that... the two had already gotten married...
[Team] Void Mage: Hahaha, at level 50 you can choose a faction to join a guild, quickly select the Divine Faction to join our guild, our guild's name is quite unique (smug expression)
He seemed to be silent for a while
Ye Rensheng stood dejectedly in front of the dungeon. Now Ling Hu had reached level 49, and she was tasked with taking him through a level 50 dungeon. Her attributes were all focused on healing and status effects, and not only were her offensive skills few, but her damage output was also quite limited. It was indeed a bit challenging for her to manage alone. Just as she was at a loss, her phone suddenly rang.
Since the conversation has reached this point, Ye Rensheng was also quite candid and directly invited Linghu to join the team
[Team] Kao: Just the three of us?
[Team] Linghu : ... ...
Team: Linghu: It was transferred from the previous account
Ye Rensheng, in a fit of excitement, began to speak without thinking.
Master Kongzang has joined the team
... ...
[Team] Sheng Sheng Li Ren: Come to Green Willow Villa == Complete in twenty minutes.
[Team] Empty Storage Mage: You are a bad silver!!! (Tears streaming down face)
Team: Piao Fairy: Hello there ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Linghu remained silent for a long while
Linghu whispers to you: I have joined the gang
Linghu says to you: Add me
Team: Flower King: Sister is busy with love; someone like you who has never been in love wouldn't understand...
Liu Hu: Are you a man
Linghu wishes to engage in a transaction with you, [Agree] [Decline]
Sister is mentoring her apprentice
The deity is wandering, and on this side, Mei He has already gone online. Ye Rensheng sent an invitation to join the team.
Liu Hu said to you: Then why do you still want to join his gang
Did he anticipate that she would agree? Ye Rensheng pouted, rode up to the NPC on her little red horse, and just as she clicked a few times, the dialogue could not proceed. Confused, she opened the quest, and it clearly stated that a master-apprentice gift of 200 taels of silver was required.
