"Brother Chu Feng, you..." Seeing Chu Feng chasing him, Li Xiang was at a loss.
He really couldn't understand that when the elders of the Copper Bamboo Forest and the Iron Bamboo Forest personally invited Chu Feng and put forward so many favorable conditions, Chu Feng would still choose to join his Abandoned Bamboo Forest. This was really unreasonable.
After all, let alone the strength of the Waste Bamboo Forest, it was far inferior to the Iron Bamboo Forest and the Copper Bamboo Forest. Moreover, the Waste Bamboo Forest could not give Chu Feng anything. Compared with the Iron Bamboo Forest and the Copper Bamboo Forest, there was no advantage at all.
"Senior Brother Li Xiang, aren't you willing to let me join the Waste Bamboo Forest and become a nominal disciple?" Chu Feng said with a smile.
"Yes, of course I am." Although he was very puzzled, Li Xiang still nodded tightly, fearing that he would miss such a good talent like Chu Feng.
"Then write my name on the list of nominal disciples of the Waste Bamboo Forest." Chu Feng pointed to the scroll in Li Xiang's hand. As long as Chu Feng's name is written on it, Chu Feng will officially become the nominal disciple of the Waste Bamboo Forest.
"Okay, okay, let's write." Naturally, Li Xiang did not hesitate and started writing.
"Stop." But at this moment, the elder of the Copper Bamboo Forest suddenly shouted loudly. At the same time, he walked up to Chu Feng again and advised Chu Feng earnestly:
"Little friend Chu Feng, Feilin is a place for trash. Even the elders there are trash. They can't give you anything. If you go there, you will simply destroy your future."
"Yes, little friend Chu Feng, you have to think carefully and don't delay yourself." At the same time, other elders also rushed forward. They didn't want to miss a genius like Chu Feng, and they all tried their best to persuade him.
"Ha... It's not worth your trouble." But in response to their persuasion, Chu Feng smiled faintly and didn't even bother to say anything more, showing an extremely indifferent tone.
After saying this, Chu Feng actually snatched the scroll and pen from Li Xiang's hand and wrote his name on it.
Everyone present was dumbfounded by this scene. They didn't expect that Chu Feng would be so determined to join the Waste Bamboo Forest. That was a place even the waste didn't want to go.
"Senior Brother Li Xiang, let's go."
However, Chu Feng ignored everyone's reaction and said to Li Xiang with a smile.
"Uh... okay..." At this moment, Li Xiang was also stunned. After hearing Chu Feng's words, he calmed down and turned around to lead the way for Chu Feng.
In this way, Chu Feng and Li Xiang left here and headed to the Wasted Bamboo Forest, leaving behind only a group of disciples with puzzled faces and elders with ugly faces.
Under Li Xiang's guidance, Chu Feng finally saw what kind of place this abandoned bamboo forest, which even the trash despised, was.
This place is actually very big, a vast land, but the scenery is really not that good. There is no magic here at all like the Holy Land of Martial Arts, let alone the wonders of the deciduous bamboo forest.
The bamboos in the deciduous bamboo forest not only sparkle with light, but can reach as high as the sky, but the bamboos in this abandoned bamboo forest are neither strong nor distinctive, and are even withered and yellow, as if they are extremely lacking in nutrients and will wither to death.
In fact, this place is indeed an abandoned land. Compared with the beautiful bamboo forest in the distance, this place is simply miserable, like a ruin.
Not only is there no pleasing natural scenery, even the buildings are in a state of disrepair and dilapidation.
Along the way, Chu Feng didn't even see a single person, as if there were only two people in this desolate land, Chu Feng and Li Xiang.
"Senior Brother Li Xiang, are we alone in this ruined bamboo forest?" Chu Feng asked curiously.
"Of course not. Although there are few people in our Waste Bamboo Forest, we still have dozens of senior fellow apprentices." Li Xiang replied with a smile.
"A few dozen?" Chu Feng had already realized something.
"It's dozens, you'll find out later." Li Xiang smiled and nodded.
Afterwards, Chu Feng didn't ask any more questions until he arrived at an ancient palace and Li Xiang sent a signal. The brothers and sisters from the abandoned bamboo forest appeared in front of Chu Feng one after another.
Except for Li Xiang, there were a total of fifty-nine people, ranging in age from teenagers to hundreds of years old.
Some of them are lame, some are mute, and some are blind, but none of them are normal. In short, some are missing arms or have broken legs. They are all disabled.
As for their cultivation level, it is also appalling. Most of them are in the Martial Lord Realm, and the weakest ones are even in the Xuanwu Realm.
Such a level of cultivation is nothing in the Eastern Sea. If it were on the Kyushu Continent, it would even be considered a master.
But in the Holy Land of Martialism, in such a big force as the Fallen Leaf Bamboo Forest, it is simply unimaginable.
Because, this is really too weak and has no place to stand at all.
Moreover, according to what Li Xiang said, these people are all the people in the Waste Bamboo Forest. They are all disciples. There are no elders. The only elder is the person in charge of the Waste Bamboo Forest, and that is Hong Qiang.
Now that things have happened, Chu Feng finally knows why he can't even look down on the trash in the Abandoned Bamboo Forest, because this place is really miserable.
"I wonder where Elder Hong Qiang is now?"
Chu Feng asked, no matter how miserable the Abandoned Bamboo Forest was, Hong Qiang was the reason why he joined the Abandoned Bamboo Forest. He came here just to meet Hong Qiang.
"Master Hong Qiang has been in seclusion for many years. I have been here for three years and I have only met him once," Li Xiang said.
"Having been in seclusion for many years? Then you don't know where he is in seclusion?" Chu Feng asked.
"We don't know this either." Li Xiang shook his head.
At this moment, Chu Feng looked at the other disciples, and those people all shook their heads, expressing that they did not know where Hong Qiang was retreating.
At this time, Chu Feng became depressed. He came all the way and tried his best to sneak into the abandoned bamboo forest, just because he wanted to see Hong Qiang.
But now, it's good that Hong Qiang has been in seclusion for many years, and no one knows where he is in seclusion. Where should Chu Feng go to see him?
"Senior Hong Qiang!!!"
"Senior Hong Qiang!!!!!"
"Senior Hong Qiang!!!!!!!"
When he was helpless, Chu Feng had no choice but to shout at the top of his voice.
His voice was extremely loud, louder than thunder, causing the bamboos to shake and the earth to tremble.
Some of the disciples from the Disciplined Bamboo Forest who were present were so frightened that they quickly blocked their ears and backed away. Their eyes looking at Chu Feng were full of fear and awe.
Unfortunately, Chu Feng shouted for a long time, frightening all the disciples and frightening away the birds and beasts, but there was no response from Hong Qiang.
"Junior brother Chu Feng, are you here to find Hong Qiang's boss?" Suddenly, Li Xiang asked.
"Yes." Chu Feng did not deny it and nodded.
"I wonder what the relationship between Junior Brother Chu Feng and Chief Hong Qiang is?" Li Xiang asked curiously.
"We had a chance encounter." Chu Feng said.
"That's it. Although I don't know what Junior Brother Chu Feng has to do with Hong Qiang, if you have nothing urgent, you might as well wait here for a while. Elder Hong Qiang is the chief here and will always show up."
"Because I heard that although Chief Hong Qiang has been in seclusion for many years, and no one knows where he is in seclusion, he has never left the abandoned bamboo forest." Li Xiang said.
"So, Senior Hong Qiang is still in this abandoned bamboo forest?" Chu Feng asked.
"Logically speaking, he should be here." Li Xiang replied.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Li Xiang, for your advice." After hearing these words, Chu Feng, who was already desperate, felt a little hope in his heart.
He decided to search carefully in this abandoned bamboo forest. He had the eyes of the sky. If Hong Qiang was really in the abandoned bamboo forest, then he would definitely be able to find it.
But if he couldn't even find his Heavenly Eye, it meant that Hong Qiang was probably not in the abandoned bamboo forest, which meant that he had no chance of meeting Hong Qiang. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only give up.
In that case, Chu Feng would not waste time by staying here, but would leave directly. After all, he still had many important things to do.
So, Chu Feng began to wander in the abandoned bamboo forest, observing carefully with his eyes, and carefully searching every corner.
And this waste bamboo forest is also very big. Even if Chu Feng wants to visit every corner of this waste bamboo forest, it will take a long time.
At this moment, the sky was already dark. Chu Feng searched for several hours in the abandoned bamboo forest, but found nothing.
It seems that he has really gone away and is destined to not get what he wants and not see Hong Qiang.
"Oh, it seems that the trip was really in vain. God's will cannot be violated."
At this moment, Chu Feng stood above the night sky, looking at the abandoned bamboo forest below, his face full of helplessness and disappointment, and he sighed unwillingly.
"That is……"
But suddenly, Chu Feng's pupils shrank, his eyes lit up, and he began to observe carefully below.
"Oh my God, this can't be true..."
It didn't matter if he took a closer look, Chu Feng's expression had already changed drastically. His disappointed eyes were filled with surprise and ecstasy, and a bright smile bloomed on his depressed face.
