Chapter 49 The Second Miss Visits the Prisoner
At present, fetching water is definitely a thankless task, but chopping firewood is different. With the help of the rusty sword, it is easy on the one hand, and on the other hand, you can further exercise your control over the strange power of the rusty sword.
When everyone arrived in the yard to start work, Zhou Cheng gathered everyone together and made a deal. Others helped him fill the water tank with water, and he chopped other people's firewood.
This deal was accepted by everyone without too many words. In their opinion, chopping firewood is a more difficult task than carrying water. Two people who worked hard to chop firewood like Zhou Cheng yesterday were unable to move today.
Zhou Cheng's group plus him, a total of ten people, had to chop ten thousand loads of firewood in three days. Even with a rusty sword, it was not something that could be easily accomplished.
They chopped firewood until twelve o'clock every night, and finally managed to complete the task after three days. On the other hand, because there was no need to chop wood, the nine people also successfully filled ten water tanks.
When Steward Fei came to inspect, he was very surprised that these new outer disciples had actually completed their tasks. This was said to be a task, but in fact it was also a kind of training. All along, even the carefully selected inner disciples,
It is rare to complete a task on the first try during the Qi training period. It is almost invisible when everyone completes it like this.
Some disciples from the inner sect came over and collected all the chopped firewood using some unknown method while waving their hands. Someone also brought new wood and piled it up in the yard.
The following days were very monotonous, resting, chopping firewood, resting, chopping firewood, repeated day by day. However, Zhou Cheng was rare and did not feel any boredom, and he was very dedicated to cultivating the strange power that controlled the rusty sword.
It's not that his character has undergone any huge changes, it's actually because of his mentality of not letting the hawk know the rabbit. In the past, even the skills taught by his master were slow to show results and required a long time of hard practice. But now it's different. You can do it with just a wave of your hand.
He was extremely excited to do something he had always dreamed of.
Such hard training not only made him more comfortable with the power of the rusty sword, but also gave him a headache.
Maybe there was something wrong with the exercises taught by the sloppy old man. He easily felt weak and sweaty. Now after practicing hard, this feeling has not improved at all, but has become more serious. Especially when the new internal energy in the body is vigorously mobilized.
Afterwards, I often feel an indescribable pain in my lower back, which is very uncomfortable.
After chopping the last few pieces of wood into pieces, Zhou Cheng felt as if he had been fished out of water.
This was not going to work and he had to find a way to solve it. Zhou Cheng sheathed his sword and began to wonder whether he should report it to the Danhua sect and let people from the Danhua sect heal his injuries.
Perhaps because the Danhua Sect divides people into different levels, even though he has become an outer disciple, Zhou Cheng does not have the slightest sense of belonging and always feels that he is not a member of the Danhua Sect.
"Boss, someone is coming for you!" Someone shouted at the door.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, these people couldn't imagine that a person similar to themselves could chop ten thousand loads of firewood in three days. Needless to say, these people also knew that Zhou Cheng was definitely stronger than them. Unconsciously, the same group
The nine people began to call Zhou Cheng the boss, after all, he had completed half of the tasks of everyone.
"Who is it?" Zhou Cheng walked out with a frown.
During these times, I don't know if the news about Pichai was leaked or something else. Steward Fei often came to see him and asked some strange questions, but he made no further comment.
When he walked out of the yard, he didn't see Guanshi Fei. He only saw a girl in yellow walking around the door under the moonlight, kicking the stones on the ground out of boredom.
Wearing a golden swallow on her head, a pair of crystal moon earrings on her ears, and a pair of big, spiritual eyes flickering, who is she if it's not Su Yuexi?
"Second Miss!" Zhou Cheng immediately shouted in surprise. When they arrived at the Danhua Sect, Su Yuexi and Su Yuexin had gone to other places since the initiation ceremony that day. Unknowingly, they had not seen each other for nearly half a year.
When she heard Zhou Cheng calling her, Su Yuexi also exclaimed: "Xiao Chengzi!" Then she jumped over.
"Second Miss, you have already..."
Although it was only one jump, Zhou Cheng felt keenly that Su Yuexi's strength seemed to have made considerable progress.
With a smile on her face, Su Yuexi said very proudly: "I am already in the foundation building stage."
"So fast!" Zhou Cheng said in surprise. This was not to satisfy Su Yuexi's vanity, but to be truly surprised.
Although I am illiterate, there are still advantages to becoming a boss. I have even coaxed and deceived others to explain the things in the book to me. Because those people do not know how to express themselves through drawing, or the pictures they draw are perfect.
I couldn’t understand it, so I only understood a few things.
But even if he doesn't understand it very well, Zhou Cheng also knows some of the most basic things. During the Qi training period, you can use elixirs to get there, but from the beginning of the Qi training period, you have to practice steadily, and when you reach a certain level, you can use the foundation building elixir to help.
promote.
Most people need at least several years of hard work, but Su Yuexi has gone from the innate realm to the foundation building stage in less than half a year, and she is naturally surprised.
I remember that day the evil man said that the two sisters Su Yuexi and Su Yuexin were spiritual people and suitable for cultivation. Could this be the reason?
Seeing Zhou Cheng's surprise, Su Yuexi was very satisfied: "Of course, it doesn't matter who I am. I am the first among this group of people to reach the foundation building stage, so the elder who taught me the technique gave me a day off.
Others don’t get this treatment.”
Because these are disciples who are going to be sent to the Baiyun Sect, even though there are a lot of criticisms from the Danhua Sect, they are still very attentive professors. They constantly supervise and urge these disciples day and night so that they can excel after being sent to the Baiyun Sect.
, to bring glory to Danhua Sect.
As soon as the words stopped, Su Yuexi asked seriously: "You see, I came to see you as soon as I had a vacation. Are you very touched? You haven't seen me for so many days. Do you miss me?"
"More than just moved, look, tears are streaming down my face." Zhou Cheng quickly touched the corners of his eyes and pretended to be crying.
As for the latter question, it goes without saying. The two of them grew up together and were separated for such a long time. How could they not think about it? It should be noted that Zhou Cheng came to Danhua Sect because of Su Yuexi.
After the two chatted for a while, Su Yuexi suddenly said mysteriously: "Do you have a place that is relatively private and will not be disturbed by others?"
"Yes!" Zhou Cheng nodded, and immediately asked very strangely: "Why do you need a place like this?"
The yard for chopping firewood is one such place. There are wood and dry firewood everywhere. It is also night now, and most people will not go in if they have nothing to do.
