Helen smiled and asked Mo Lingshan: "Can you lend me your cell phone?"
Mo Lingshan looked helpless: "What a coincidence, my phone is broken, and the weather has been bad recently, the cell phone signal is very poor. If you want to contact anyone, go to the town at the foot of the mountain tomorrow and call."
Helen wanted to contact Earl Cran, since she had come out of the world of immortality, and she wanted to at least make a phone call to let him know she was safe.
"Then go to town and make a phone call tomorrow morning."
Xiao Mile arranged temporary accommodation for Sister Ajuan, Lao Qintou and others. There are at least 800 disciples in Fangcun Mountain. The entire mountain is the territory of Fangcun Mountain. There are always places to live, but the only difference is the quality of the environment.
The temporary residence was in a small courtyard in the back mountain. Close to the backyard, there was a newly built three-story building with seventeen or eighteen rooms, which was originally intended for new disciples.
Because the matter of accepting new disciples has been put on hold, these rooms have been vacant, and Sister Juan and the others can stay there temporarily.
After everything is settled, we can move to a place that is more suitable for cultivation.
The room was spacious and bright, fully equipped and decorated in a more modern style. Mo Yun, who was used to living in a simple wooden house, was very satisfied.
The disciples laid out bedding for them and prepared toiletries. Xiao Maitreya said with a smile, "Ancestor Elder, it is getting late today. You and your friends should stay here first. I will prepare a better place for you."
Mo Yun smiled and said, "This place is great. We are all ancient warriors, and we don't have too many requirements for the living and eating environment. As long as it doesn't affect our practice, it's fine."
"Then we will leave first so as not to disturb your rest. I live in the first room in the first row in the backyard not far away. If the ancestors and elders need anything, please feel free to contact me. Just shout "Laughing Maitreya" and I will be there at your beck and call."
Sister Ajuan, Lao Qintou and Helen were also very satisfied with the room, but Grandma Butterfly was a bit picky.
"Why isn't there a TV here?"
"I'm sorry, except for the reception room and the guest room, there are no televisions in the disciples' dormitories, not even in the sect master's room. The sect master has told us to focus on cultivation..."
Sister Juan glared at Grandma and said, "What are you watching on TV, girl? You don't practice well, you just enjoy yourself. Pay attention."
Grandma Butterfly was not very happy, but she could do nothing about it as she was controlled by Sister Ajuan.
Mo Lingshan smiled and said, "Grandma Butterfly, few people watch TV nowadays. When we go to town tomorrow, I will buy you a mobile phone. It will allow you to watch videos, listen to music, and chat online. It is much more interesting than TV."
Grandma Butterfly was overjoyed: "Is it the kind of little box that can take pictures and make me look prettier?"
Helen smiled and said, "Yes, that's it. I even took a picture of you."
Grandma Butterfly asked in confusion: "Helen, where is your cell phone? Let me play with it."
"I dropped him into the world of immortality."
"You are such an unstable girl. You even lost something so important."
Sister Juan spoke up: "It's just a toy, and you're talking about Helen. Is it more important that we came from the immortal world or that we have fun? Helen lost her phone. Is it a blessing in disguise?"
Grandma Butterfly pouted and made a deal with Sister Juan: "I must go to town to buy one tomorrow. I don't have a TV to watch. I must have a cell phone to practice with you. Isn't that too much?"
"As long as it doesn't affect your practice, you can have one. Helen, buy one for me too."
Helen smiled. Sister Juan was not out of touch with the world. She actually wanted a mobile phone as well. She was an ancient warrior, but she was also a woman.
Sister Ajuan did not object to some of Grandma Butterfly's ideas. They had been in the world of immortality for hundreds of years and had missed many things that ordinary people should have experienced.
Sister Ajuan and Grandma Butterfly entered the world of immortality when they were young. In order to practice, they gave up love and everything they needed to become normal women.
They practiced in the world of immortality like ascetics, but achieved nothing. Regret, sadness and sorrow often tormented them. They were torn between insisting on practicing or being an ordinary woman.
It's like the devil and the angel, fighting in their hearts, and neither can tell the winner.
The night view of Fangcun Mountain was very beautiful. Although everyone was lying in bed, they could not fall asleep and had no intention of practicing meditation. Looking at the distant mountains outside the window, their hearts felt like a bottle of overturned five flavors, with all kinds of feelings: confusion, noise, and wild thoughts.
Sister Ajuan sighed in her heart. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of years had passed. Compared to when she had first entered the world of immortality, this was a completely unfamiliar world and everything had changed.
Times, clothing, food, and even her own state of mind were changing. She didn't know whether she should come to this strange world.
While having supper, Old Qin drank some wine with Mo Yun and Mr. Mo Da. A drunk can relieve all worries. No matter how the world changes, wine is always a good thing. As long as there is still wine in the world, he doesn't have to worry about anything.
Mo Yun was half happy and half worried. After talking with Mo Daqin, he understood the current situation in the ancient martial arts world.
What made him happy was that under the leadership of Mo Da, Fangcun Mountain had become the most powerful sect today. The Tianquan Sect was destroyed, and the Shangqing Sect, Xuankong Temple, and Taiyi Sect became much weaker, which gave him a sense of accomplishment.
What worries me is that the world today is no longer the era where one could travel the world with a sword.
Ancient martial arts are declining, and the resources for cultivation are becoming increasingly scarce. The development of science and technology has had a great impact on ancient martial arts, and it hides a variety of threats.
Everyone fell asleep in the chaos. The mountains and forests were filled with fog in early winter. The sky became gloomy. The moon and stars could not be seen. The sky turned red, as if a faint blood color was flowing.
In the early morning, the sky changed color again. A black fog rose from the mountains and forests, surrounding the entire Fangcun Mountain, and darkness shrouded the earth.
Mr. Mo Da prepared to get up and do morning exercises as usual. He drank too much last night and missed the evening class, so he couldn't miss the morning exercises.
But when he looked out through the curtains, the sky and the earth were still dark. He checked the time and it should be seven o'clock in the morning. Normally at this time, no matter how dark the sky was, it would appear gray instead of being as black as ink.
The sky was as black as ink.
He jumped out of bed; the weather was not right.
I put on my clothes and rushed to the yard. There was a faint fishy smell in the air, as if someone had left some salted fish hanging nearby that had been rotting for many days.
Not only Mr. Mo Da felt something was wrong, but Grandma Mo also looked at the sky in surprise: "It's already seven o'clock, why is it still so dark? Although the nights are longer in winter, they are not this dark. Oh no, could it be that someone has cast a formation in our Fangcun Mountain?"
