I, seal everything

Chapter 8 You need to be hard on yourself

That night, Chen Zheng had a rare good sleep.

No nightmares, no hesitation at the beginning of time travel, I slept peacefully until dawn.

After getting up, he fetched water to wash and went straight to the dining hall.

Wu San and He Daming's two attendants showed up on time, and after a hearty meal, he bid them farewell and returned to the sparse forest near his residence, where he began to cut down shrubs and branches.

The fence in the small courtyard where I live now has grown to a height of seven or eight feet, which can just cover the courtyard and protect privacy.

However, because no one has lived in it for a long time and there is no one to take care of it, the fence wall has been damaged by someone who has made a few big holes. He plans to repair it first, and then formally start his own cultivation plan.

A large number of branches are obtained from local materials, and there is no difficulty in repairing.

In less than half an hour, all the gaps in the wall were repaired. Chen Zheng wandered around the courtyard, and after confirming that he couldn't see the courtyard from the outside, he nodded in satisfaction and prepared to go back to the house.

"Wait, stay!"

However, at this moment, a sudden call came from not far away.

As soon as Chen Zheng turned his gaze, he saw a slovenly rough man in a purple-patterned robe, holding a deer's hind leg, coming with a smile on his face:

"Are you Chen Zheng, a new senior teacher?"

The senior trainees who were promoted normally are internal masters who have started to practice viscera. The memory of the original owner seems to have some impressions, and Chen Zheng is vigilant:

"It's me, Your Excellency."

"My servant, Xu Jiehu, lives in Courtyard No. [-]."

The man who called himself Xu Jiehu laughed, and raised the deer leg in his hand:

"It's rare to hear that there is a third-eyed person who was promoted to a high-ranking congregation by his wife. I was curious and came to have a look. This deer leg should be a congratulatory gift for promotion. Don't be disgusted."

The other party's appearance looked quite normal, plus he didn't raise his hand to hit the smiling face, Chen Zheng evaded and said:
"Your Excellency is too polite. I'm just here for the first time. How can I be embarrassed?"

Xu Jiehu threw the deer leg directly: "What's the matter, be careful, just accept it."

Chen Zheng, who was too short to refuse, caught this fresh deer leg and said politely:

"The house is simple, if Brother Xu doesn't dislike it, why don't you come in and talk about it?"

"Okay, then I'll interrupt."

Xu Jiehu readily agreed, and entered the courtyard and house at the invitation.

Sitting down and looking around, he said:

"This room is much cleaner than mine, but there are several empty yards. Why did Brother Chen choose this place?"

"Nothing else, it just looks quieter here."

Chen Zheng heard something, and his heart moved slightly:

"Why, is there something wrong with this yard?"

Xu Jiehu asked unexpectedly: "Did the person who arranged the accommodation for you tell you?"

Chen Zheng was confused: "What are you talking about?"

Xu Jiehu said meaningfully:

"No. 17 yard next door to you, lives in Zhong Ming. This person can be regarded as a senior senior congregation with senior qualifications, but something went wrong in the previous practice process, and his heart was injured due to his insanity.

After going mad, he has been reclusive and in a state of recuperation.But I heard that he has been getting worse both physically and mentally recently, so you'd better be careful on weekdays. "

"Going crazy?"

Chen Zheng's heart shuddered slightly upon hearing this.

Those of them who have alienated bodies are walking a tightrope in their practice. Once they become obsessed, it will often lead to intensified physical alienation and the risk of losing control.

Living next door to such an unstable factor, who can sleep peacefully?
The point is, the internal affairs believer who took him to choose a residence didn't remind him a word!
Xu Jiehu saw something, and said clearly:
"You were directly promoted from a low-level believer, and it is said that you were awarded the Great Eye Pill by your wife. It is inevitable that you will be jealous. That person deliberately didn't tell you that he was just envious and jealous, waiting to see your jokes.

But don't worry too much, Zhong Ming is also a master at practicing viscera, and he won't get out of control so easily.No matter how serious it is, you can apply for it and change to another yard. "

The human heart is so fucking sinister
Chen Zheng, who understood that he had been put together, thanked Xu Jiehu:
"Thank you, brother, for reminding me, otherwise I would still be kept in the dark."

Xu Jiehu smiled indifferently:

"It doesn't matter, everyone was a hard-working person before joining the religion. We should benefit and help each other. What does it look like to intrigue in this corner? If you have any questions in the future, you can come to me."

Chen Zheng nodded: "Definitely, definitely."

After that, there was nothing to say, and the two sides just chattered for a while.

Under Chen Zheng's inquiry, Xu Jiehu, who is quite senior, gave him a general introduction to the situation of other senior congregants, and incidentally talked about their daily responsibilities and tasks.

At present, there are less than ten senior congregants stationed in the stronghold, plus Chen Zheng. On weekdays, they lead ordinary congregants to practice, or station in villages, patrol mountains and hunt, and perform their duties.

Needless to say the drill, the garrisoned village is outside the mountains not far from the stronghold, and there are about [-] people living there.

In the wilderness area, the power of the imperial court is beyond the reach. Most of these people are the people who have been plundered by the Tianmu God Sect in recent years. The whole village is equivalent to the logistics base of the stronghold, providing food, livestock, etc. People need to be stationed for a long time.

Hunting in the mountains is easier, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and relying on the water to drink water, the mountains and forests behind the sub-rudder stronghold stretch for tens of miles, there are birds and animals, herbs and mountain products, barely considered a treasure land of resources.

In addition to these, another part of the qualifications and outstanding performance will be appointed by Mrs. Wumu to go out to other cities to perform various tasks, mainly lurking, assassinating, and robbing people and other dirty things.

Hearing this, Chen Zheng was very moved, thinking that this seemed to be a way to leave this ghostly place.

However, he has only just practiced skinning now, and it seems that he is still far away from getting to this point.

In this way, the two sides talked for a long time, and after the guests and the host had enjoyed themselves, Xu Jiehu got up and said goodbye.

Chen Zheng also got up very enthusiastically and walked all the way to the entrance of the courtyard, watching the other party leave.

And when Xu Jiehu's figure completely disappeared from sight, Chen Zheng's smile suddenly disappeared, and his brows frowned slightly
Although the other party seemed straightforward and harmless, and even mentioned something about the neighbor next door, he always felt that something was wrong.

In his opinion, except for those who have just been robbed in this ghost place, most of the other high-ranking believers have been brainwashed by the teachings and have distorted thinking.

This Xu Jiehu is not related to him, so why would he be so kind?

"Forget it, whether he is good or bad."

"Forging iron requires hardening yourself. If there is something wrong, speak with a knife!"

Without worrying about this trivial matter, Chen Zheng took the knife and returned to the courtyard, took a deep breath, and immediately started practicing "Sura's Deadly Knife".
