Chapter 12 Disaster
The disciples of Xinhuo Hall work the hardest. No matter you are good at martial arts or not, under the pressure of Wang Ba Dao, the work is divided according to strength. Those who are good at martial arts and strong may have to chop down five or six old yellow trees a day.
Think of that old yellow tree, an extraordinary tree, as hard as iron, specially used to burn it into yellow old charcoal to make elixirs. No matter how high your martial arts skills are, even if you chop down two trees in one day, they will still be ground into dead donkeys.
Zhou Chen and Le Jiang's daily tasks are still one tree for the time being. The main reason is that neither of them is very good at martial arts. Wang Ba Dao is too busy squeezing the others and doesn't bother to discipline these two usually cautious people.
Seeing the others sweating like rain, Zhou Chen couldn't bear it, but he could only hide in a remote place and cut down the trees. Even because Le Jiang was there, he controlled his strength when cutting down the trees, only spending about three cents less per day.
One day, I used the saved time to practice the Heavenly Sword Technique.
Even so, Le Jiang was so shocked that he didn't know why. Fortunately, he wouldn't say anything nonsense.
Compared to others, the two of them spent the day very relaxedly. They sawed the tree and put it on the stove. When they were about to go back, they saw the disciples from the porter hall coming.
Why were there so many people this time? Zhou Chen was a little confused, and he and Le Jiang stood in the distance, watching boredly.
"This is Master Qian Zhongxian of the Alchemy Hall. From now on, everyone's Huang Lao Tan will have to be opened and counted with the nod from his old man." A disciple from the Moving Hall said loudly. It turned out that this person was the supervisor.
Qian Zhong's eyebrows turned a little white, he wore a purple crown, snorted coldly, and said: "Huang Laotan is of great importance, it is the foundation of my alchemy hall. Since I have been released from seclusion, I can't tolerate it."
Some people are lazy and idle. But if a piece of it is missing after being tempered in the furnace of this characteristic, your life will have to be paid for it."
The disciples of the Xinhuo Hall bowed their heads and dared not to praise, but they cursed the new supervisor in their hearts. The lives of people like themselves are really cheap, and anyone else would threaten them with their own lives. Wang Badao is
In this way, this is also the case with the death penalty officer. Who in the world is the good master!!!
The dignity of the weak is ruthlessly trampled and reprimanded by the strong, leaving no one able to refute.
Zhou Chen's face was natural, but he had already scolded him in his heart. One day, Qian Zhongdan, you, would not dare to lecture in front of him in such a arrogant manner.
Treat me like an ant, and one day I will make you worse than an ant.
After Qian Zhong left, all the disciples of Xinhuo Hall cursed a lot in private. After greeting Qian Zhong's ancestors, they greeted Wang Badao's ancestors again and again. The scolding was that these two people did not regard themselves as the poor disciples of Xinhuo Hall.
Human beasts.
After all, Zhou Chen is a modern man and is used to conspiracy and conspiracy, so he asked Le Jiang more questions. If there was no one to guard the big copper furnace that night, would something happen? As a result, Le Jiang told him that Wang Ba Dao would send his trusted eagle dog to take care of it.
They or the moving hall disciples don’t need to worry about taking care of the furnace.
However, Zhou Chen always felt that something was wrong. Qian Zhong was considered a number one figure after all, at least he was not something someone like Wang Ba Dao could afford to offend. However, Wang Ba Dao did not come to this scene that was almost like taking over power.
It seems that things are not that simple.
As a weakling, Zhou Chen had to be cautious and secretly told Le Jiang not to run around alone these days. No matter what changes happened, he should stay where he could take care of him.
As soon as the sky darkened, a figure appeared in the charcoal field by the lake. It turned out that the figure was the obscene and cruel Wang Badao.
Wang BaDao casually opened a large copper stove and looked at it. He didn't see any movement, but he heard him whisper to himself: "Humph, I'll let you be proud for a few days. By then, I'm afraid you will be Lian Dantang."
I can’t stay any longer.”
…
In the evening, Zhou Chen first found a place two blocks away, and while looking at the moon, he sat and finished eating steamed buns with Le Jiang. The disciples of Xinhuo Hall were miserable, eating only steamed buns and salted radish. Zhou Chen didn't want to live such a hard life.
, I dug some wild vegetables with fat roots at the foot of the mountain during the day, and brought them back to make salad by myself.
"Hmm, Brother Chen, this salted radish mixed with Pleurotus leucophylla is really delicious. I've never eaten it before."
"Yeah, I didn't expect that there is also a Pleurotus genus here. Haha, Lejiang, do you know what it's called in my hometown?"
"What?"
"Pig ears, hahaha..."
"Brother Chen, look at your smile, it's so bad."
…
Like the closest brothers, the two of them finished the extremely crude dinner while talking and laughing, and then began to prepare to practice and read martial arts manuals.
This time Zhou Chen did not rush to meditate and divide Baoyan. Instead, he sat next to Le Jiang and urged him to take out a book and read it. Every time Le Jiang just refused to practice, Zhou Chen wondered if he was too lazy.
.
"Let me see what martial arts manual you are reading."
Zhou Chen grabbed the martial arts book in his hand, looked at the name, and flipped through it casually, frowning slightly: "Le Jiang, you are the same as me, you have no qualifications for cultivating immortals, and you are missing an immortal bone.
The Immortal Fate of Cultivation. Do you understand this introduction to the Five Elements Formation?"
He really couldn't understand how Le Jiang could choose this introductory book of formations from the bookstore where the handyman disciples were selecting martial arts books, and still read it with gusto every night. Could it be that he was suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder?
Le Jiang took back the formation booklet, held it in front of his chest, closed his eyes slightly, and said, "Brother Chen, do you know what my dream has always been?"
"What?"
"Cultivation of immortals. My dream has always been to cultivate immortality, and I must succeed in cultivation." Le Jiang said with a rare trace of persistence on his face: "Although I have no immortal bones and no immortal destiny, I have a heart for the Tao.
.When I found this introduction to the Five Elements Formation in the bookstore, I knew that God had not abandoned me in the end. I firmly believed that I would definitely meet the destiny of immortality."
"Besides, the direction of your future cultivation will be formations, right? Because you are a genius in formations!" Zhou Chen joked about Le Jiang as usual.
"Yes, I am really a genius."
Le Jiang gritted his teeth slightly, closed the martial arts book, walked a few steps, kicked away the gravel under his feet, and revealed a small open space. He picked up a stone, squatted down, and drew something on it very quickly.
"This is the golden formation of the five elements. The five elements of heaven and earth are made of gold. The western Gengxin gold is the main killer."
"This is the wooden formation of the five elements, the five elements of heaven and earth, the eastern wood A and B, which governs life."
"This is the water formation at the entrance to the five elements, the five elements of heaven and earth, the Rengui water in the north, and the main change."
"This is the fire formation of the Five Elements Entrance, the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth, Bing Ding Fire in the South, the main extinguisher."
"This is the earth formation at the entrance to the five elements. The five elements of heaven and earth, with Wuji earth in the center, governs sleep."
"The essence of the Five Elements Formation is the five-character mantra: trapped life turns into destruction!!" Le Jiang almost finished it in one go and drew the five basic formations. Those weird curves and some weird patterns, although Zhou Chen didn't notice any of them.
I recognize it, but those battle formation sketches don’t look fake at first glance. Could this Le Jiang really be the legendary genius?
"You have already entered the gate of the formation, you are just waiting for an opportunity."
"Yes. I think one day, my destiny will come. Brother Chen, as long as I have destiny, I will definitely find it for you in the future." Le Jiang said seriously.
Zhou Chen felt a little guilty in his heart, and responded with a haha and thanked him. This Le Jiang is not only a genius, but also a very persistent person. But it’s right to think about it. If he hadn’t been persistent, he wouldn’t have behaved like this.
Despite his frail body, he still asked himself to stay in Xinhuo Hall as a handyman disciple.
I am much luckier than others.
Zhou Chen, who was deeply touched, asked Le Jiang Haosheng to read the formation booklet, and he meditated in Fenbao Rock, practicing the Heavenly Sword Technique as if he was racing against time.
Le Jiang, who does not yet have immortal bones and immortal destiny, has studied hard and studied hard, and he has all the conditions to get ahead. If he does not work hard, he will really be sorry for this huge immortal destiny.
