Wuling Xianyuan

Chapter 20 Aoki Temple

When Wang Chong saw Zhu Youcai, he couldn't help being startled. He saw that the other party was sitting cross-legged at the moment, holding a jade slip in his hand. He seemed to be comprehending something, and the latter was obviously a little unhappy when he found someone appeared. , his closed eyelids were slightly raised, and when he saw Wang Chong panting like a cow and sweating profusely, there was a hint of disdain and sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, it seemed that he had misunderstood something.

Seeing that the other party stopped, Wang Chong immediately put on a flattering smile, came to Zhu Youcai's side, and said, "Morning, Senior Brother Zhu. I didn't expect Senior Brother Zhu to work so hard. He is indeed a model for new disciples to learn from."

Although he knew that what Wang Chong said was not from his heart, Zhu Youcai still felt very comfortable after hearing it, and said, "I thought you didn't talk much, but I didn't expect you to be quite good at talking. Why, what can I do for you?"

"Brother's advice, it's understandable for a new student to do sundries for a period of time under the senior brother's hands, but the younger brother's qualifications are mediocre, but he hopes to make up for his weakness with hard work. I also hope that the senior brother can hold his hand high and give him some convenience beyond the deadline."

Immediately, Wang Chong took out the pre-prepared spirit stone from his cuff and put it in Zhu Youcai's hand. The latter glanced at it and did not refuse it. I was mistaken, although a cultivator seeks longevity, time is also very precious to us, how can I not understand this principle, senior brother."

"The disciples of the great sect are different. When it comes to the principles, they are all the same." Although he thought so in his heart, Wang Chong didn't dare to say so on the surface, he could only nod and laugh apologetically.

"But junior brother, you don't know something. Senior brother, I also have difficulties. According to the rules of the school, since you have arrived here, you must complete a certain period of time and leave in the middle."

Wang Chong sneered in his heart when he heard the words. Last night, he carefully studied the jade slip that recorded the Thunder Fire Sect's sect rules. The reason why some disciples were left to do some miscellaneous things after entering the inner sect was only for For those who don't obey the discipline, the longest period is one year, and the managers can also let the disciples here leave in advance at their discretion, so there must be more to Zhu Youcai's words.

Wang Chong put on a look of panic and hesitation on his face. Then he gritted his teeth, took out a spirit stone from the storage bag newly issued by his cuff, and handed it to Zhu Youcai. He said with a heartbroken expression: "Brother Zhu is kind-hearted, please think of a way for the younger brother."

At the same time as Wang Chong opened the storage bag, Zhu Youcai took the opportunity to glance inside, and found that it seemed to be the last piece of spirit stone, so he put it away, but pretended to be in a dilemma, finally sighed softly, and said: "Brother, you are also a person who is dedicated to the Tao. That's all. I will think of a way, brother. You will come again in a month. Brother will definitely help you. In addition, your current task can also be halved. See Senior brother can't bear the way you look tired."

Wang Chong was ecstatic when he heard the words. He wiped the sweat off his face and thanked him repeatedly. Finally, he flattered him before leaving. After he walked away, Senior Brother Ma snorted coldly and said, "A poor man, don't you?" How about squeezing you new disciples a little more, wasting my time."

Then he went back to the place before and sat cross-legged, looked at the jade slip in his hand and muttered to himself: "The spirit cane technique is the simplest, and it can save a lot of trouble if it is used on those disobedient disciples. Don't worry about the Lingshi coming soon, hehe..."

Wang Chong left the side hall all the way, and now he was already thinking about it, but he couldn't help but feel a little funny when he thought of the hypocritical conversation between the two of them just now. Work without delay.

And Zhu Youcai didn't have any good intentions in asking Wang Chong to go to him again in a month. If Wang Chong guessed correctly, one month later would be the day when the sect would distribute free pills and spirit stones, but the other party delayed the time until then. One day, apparently something else was going on.

The task of one thousand catties was not difficult for Wang Chong, but now Zhu Youcai has reduced the task by half, which just happened to give him more free time.

After leaving the side hall, Wang Chong didn't go to Ironwood Forest immediately, but went directly back to the thatched hut where he lived before. When he opened the door and walked in, he didn't find the boy from before, but that's fine.

I saw Wang Chong sitting cross-legged on a futon, patted the storage bag, and had a jade bottle in his hand. He opened the bottle and poured out a pea-sized beige elixir. After swallowing the elixir, Wang Chong He began to close his eyes and adjust his breath.

This kind of elixir can quickly restore the consumed mana in his body, but if there is a corresponding exercise, Wang Chong doesn't have to be so extravagant. As a disciple who has just entered the inner sect, the recovery of mana depends on swallowing the elixir, even Some high-level disciples did not dare to do so.

When he opened his eyes again, the feeling of full mana came again, and the corner of his mouth curved, and Wang Chong got up and walked out.

Wang Chong appeared at the place yesterday according to the route he remembered. He was surprised to find that a sapling had grown from the place where the ironwood pine had been cut down by him before, and that sapling had grown to two heights overnight. It's unbelievably tall.

Although he was surprised at the growth rate of the seedlings of this tree, Wang Chong knew that the ironwood pine was not a kind of spiritual wood. Its seedlings would release poison before the wood became as hard as iron, but they were not yet cultivators. Ironwood pine will become as hard as iron when it grows to the second year, making it difficult to cut.

The reason why Lei Huozong asked some low-level disciples to come here to cut down this tree is to use this to kill those disciples who are arrogant, and it is considered well-intentioned.

With his previous experience, Wang Chong felled trees much faster. In just half a day, he had cut enough [-] catties of ironwood pine. Looking at the bundle of ironwood pine in front of him, Wang Chong heaved a sigh of relief, and then put away the tree. Picked up the axe, went back to the hut to freshen up, and then walked up the mountain.

Although they don't know where the library is, some of the brothers in the door must know that Wang Chong is walking on the main road of a mountain road in Leihuozong. Leihuozong saw a man in his 20s walking towards him with a hurried expression.

Wang Chong secretly urged his spiritual eyes to scan, and he could see the fifth level of Yun Ling's cultivation at a glance. After knowing it, Wang Chong stopped him.

Suddenly a young man appeared in front of him. The man frowned, but before he could speak, Wang Chong apologized and said, "Brother, don't blame me. I'm just getting started, so I don't know much about the sect. , I hope senior brother don’t blame me for disturbing things.”

A look of amazement flashed across the man's face when he heard the words, and Wang Chong's cultivation naturally couldn't hide from the other party's eyes, "Junior Brother, just speak up if you have something to say, and it's not a matter of bothering or not."

The other party's straightforwardness was somewhat beyond Wang Chong's expectations. He thought he was comparing Zhu Youcai with the man in front of him.

"I'm just getting started, but I don't have the corresponding exercises, so I went to the library to find a solution today, but the main peak is so big that it's far beyond my imagination, so I can't find a place. I hope my brother can give me some pointers." Wang Wang Chong said very politely, but the other party was a little puzzled when he heard it.

"It stands to reason that new disciples will be given out a map, why..." The man seemed to have thought of something in the middle of the sentence, shook his head, then took out a jade slip from the storage bag, and pasted it on the forehead.

Seeing the man like this, Wang Chong's eyes flashed. He probably guessed what the other party was thinking, but he didn't say anything. Throw it to Wang Chong.

"You must be going to the Cyanwood Hall under the care of Uncle Wu. I have marked the route from here to the Cyanwood Hall. After you go, you can get a complete map. You can do it yourself." After finishing speaking, the man didn't look back. Wang Chong hurriedly left, and the other party just waved his hand from a distance.

"Cyanwood Hall..." Wang Chong muttered to himself, and then his spiritual sense penetrated into the jade slip. Sure enough, there was a road marked in it, and some simple explanations were made on the side. Wang Chong happily accepted the jade slip. Get up, lift your feet and walk in the direction of the Cyanwood Hall.

Although the main peak of Leihuo Sect is large, some important places that do not require terrain are built not very far away. Wang Chong had already appeared outside the Cyanwood Hall in just half an hour. It was all the way on foot.

As soon as he entered the Cyanwood Hall, Wang Chong saw an old man in green robes, frowning, holding a jade slip in his hand, muttering something in his mouth, and as if he didn't see Wang Chong, He muttered to himself.

Seeing this, Wang Chong's heart shuddered. As soon as he entered the door just now, he secretly cast his spiritual eyes, but under the spiritual eyes, the other party looked like an ordinary old man. Wang Chong's heart shuddered. Naturally, he would not treat the other party as an ordinary person , the old man in front of him is probably just the Uncle Wu that the man said before.

The other party ignored him, Wang Chong didn't dare to speak out rashly, and there were no other disciples in the Cyanwood Hall at the moment, but Wang Chong didn't understand the rules, so he had no choice but to wait quietly.

Just like that, the two of them ignored each other and stood quietly at the same spot. Martial Uncle Wu held the jade slip in his hand and frowned, obviously thinking about something, while Wang Chong stood aside with a respectful face, even more motionless. , like a piece of wood, an hour has passed, and he has not moved from the beginning to the end.

"Boy, just come to the Cyanwood Hall and take a look. You don't have to stand there like an idiot. You just need to tell me the jade slips you selected. The exercises from the first to third levels of the Yunling Stage are over there. Go and see for yourself. Bar."

Just when Wang Chong was thinking about whether to leave, Martial Uncle Wu's voice suddenly rang in his ears, and he saw that the other party had put away the jade slip in his hand at this time, and his eyes fell on Wang Chong at some point, and he said softly .
