[Martial arts]: chopping firewood (20% success)

Seeing that the progress of chopping firewood unexpectedly increased to 20%, Gu Sheng couldn't help being stunned.

He began to think back to the magical knife last night. At that time, he only felt that the wild wolf was like a firewood in his eyes. It was not only a firewood, but also had layers of texture in his eyes.

Following the texture, it is easy to split.

He vaguely understood which direction Pichai should work hard in if he wanted to break through to perfection.

The mechanical liver experience has never been the real purpose of the panel, and the combination of diligence and thinking can play the greatest role.

"In this way, maybe it doesn't take 20 days to be promoted to the state of consummation by chopping firewood!"

Gu Sheng was excited.

Last night he knew the strength of Dacheng Pichai, and he could kill wild wolves with his current thin body.

If the body is stronger in the future, the power will only be stronger.

"I don't know if I can achieve perfection in chopping firewood, can I compete with warriors?"

Gu Sheng couldn't help but think of Gu Jingang's ferocious power last night, with one punch, the wolf's head was as brittle as a watermelon.

Shaking his head, putting aside the unrealistic thoughts, Gu Sheng started to pack his things.

The wound on the back is not too deep, and it still hurts after applying the ointment. I have to continue chopping firewood today. Even if I lose my arms and legs, I still have to continue working.

If you don't work, you won't have food.

Finding a large wooden board to block the hole in the door, Gu Sheng rushed towards the master's house.

Head bowed all the way forward, weeping could be heard faintly from the wooden house by the roadside.

Dozens of wild wolves attacked at night, which is a disaster for ordinary villagers.

"That's... Uncle Gen's house?"

Gu Sheng was stunned, and saw someone in a wooden house on the right side collecting corpses.

Three, a couple, and a boy.

Gu Sheng looked complicated and stood there blankly.

Uncle Gen suffered a leg injury in his early years, so he couldn't do heavy work, so he could only do some small handicrafts, and Mrs. Gen did some odd jobs to barely make ends meet.

The wolves raided last night.

Even a wild wolf is not something such a family can handle.

"Ugh……"

Gu Sheng buried his head and walked forward, feeling a little bored.

If he had to do it all over again, he would still choose to stay at Gu Erniu's house and wait for rescue. No one else's life was more important than his own.

It's just that seeing Uncle Gen's family being wiped out at this time, I feel a little bit sad.

"When the body grows stronger, we will see if there is any way to practice martial arts in advance."

Gu Sheng let out a long sigh of relief and stepped into the North courtyard.

Unexpectedly, Gu He was waiting there, seeing Gu Sheng, Gu He heaved a sigh of relief.

"According to the news from the village, you were attacked by wolves in your direction last night, as long as you are fine."

Gu Sheng said gratefully:
"Thank you for your concern, the steward. Fortunately, I have a big life. I just suffered a small injury, which will not affect today's work."

Gu He waved his hand and said:
"Leave the work in advance. If you were injured today, you can recuperate at home."

Gu Sheng shook his head and refused:

"It's okay, I can handle it."

There is no way, the daily expenses are there, if you don't work, Gu Sheng can't save money, and the back injury doesn't affect his strength, although it hurts a little, but Gu Sheng can bear it.

As if seeing Gu Sheng's firmness, Gu He didn't try to persuade him anymore, but just sighed in his heart.

"Steward, how many people died last night?"

Gu Sheng asked suddenly.

Gu He was silent for a moment, then sighed with a long breath:

"Thirteen households, 43 people, and some who lost their hands and legs and were bitten. Fortunately, Teacher Gu went to them in time, otherwise more people would die."

After getting the news early in the morning, he also felt a little sad. Although his status in the village was not bad, but looking at the Liang Dynasty, even in Canghe County, he was no different from the dead villager.

Gu Sheng was shocked in his heart, but also remained silent.

Not to mention the dead, those who lost their arms and legs will have an equally difficult life in the future.

Gu Sheng said dryly:
"Wild wolves are generally intelligent and will not approach places where people gather easily. How could they..."

Gu He stared at Gu Sheng for a moment, then shook his head and turned around, only to hear a voice:

"Has Gu Erniu come back?"

Gu Sheng's spirit was shocked, and he froze for a moment, with ripples in his heart.

"Sure enough...is it related to the purpose of Zhuangai warrior entering the mountain?"

He had guessed before that the wild wolf last night was too unusual, as if he had been disturbed by some kind of disturbance, but there was too little information to confirm it. Now that he got Gu He's suggestion, he immediately understood.

"What exactly is Zhuang Nei calling Orion into the mountain for?"

Gu Sheng couldn't figure it out, but the only good news was that, judging from Gu He's tone, Gu Erniu shouldn't be in too much danger.

He put aside his distracting thoughts, walked into the woodshed and started working.

Although the wound has some effect, it is not big.

Gu Sheng was diligently chopping firewood.

Every piece of firewood is a hope for the future with him.

time flies.

Sunset West Mountain.

Gu Sheng wiped off his sweat and finished chopping wood for today. The cloth wrapped around his back was a little red, and he only chopped [-] pieces of firewood today.

Gu He nodded approvingly, very satisfied with the boy's perseverance.

Gu Sheng took eight copper coins and went home.

In the days that followed, Shonai gradually returned to calm.

Because the trauma caused by the wolf attack will heal over time, or numb, and the living have to continue.

Gu Sheng's life finally became easier.

The back injury has completely healed, and it does not affect the chopping of firewood. Now Gu Sheng can chop a thousand pieces of firewood a day, and besides eating, he can also save two pennies.

However, this has basically reached the upper limit. Even if the main family has a large population, it does not need too much firewood consumption, let alone other odd jobs of chopping firewood.

Ten Wen a day is pretty good for the average person.

After Gu Sheng saves a few years of money, he can marry a daughter-in-law to carry on the family line. This is the life of an ordinary villager.

But Gu Sheng is definitely not willing to spend his whole life in such a muddle.

The dozens of catties of wolf meat provided by the two wild wolves made Gu Sheng a feast. With the intake of meat and the exercise of chopping thousands of firewood every day, Gu Sheng's body became stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Since the two wolf skins were incomplete and gray, they only got two hundred copper coins, but it was considered a windfall.

Now Gu Sheng's wealth can be regarded as more than [-] Wen.

Everything is developing in a good direction.

It’s just that Gu Sheng is not satisfied. He feels that the speed of accumulating wealth is still too slow. If he really wants to practice martial arts, the tuition fee alone is definitely not enough, and the consumption of martial arts training also needs to be taken into account.

But there is no good solution yet, Gu Sheng intends to wait until the firewood chopping is complete before thinking about it.

……

Gu Erniu's house.

Gu Wan squatted in the corner talking to the ants, holding a brand new weed grasshopper in his hand. After knowing that Gu Wan liked it, Gu Sheng would make up something to tease him from time to time.

Li Lian was washing the clothes, but her face was full of worry.

At this time, it has been half a month since Gu Erniu entered the mountain, but he has not returned, which is far beyond the three to five days mentioned at the beginning.

Sometimes Li Lian even wondered whether all those who entered the mountain in the village had been wiped out.

Thinking about it, I felt a little colic in my heart, and my tears couldn't help sliding down.

Afraid that Gu Wan would see it, he hurriedly wiped it off without leaving any traces.

"Girl!"

"Mother, I'm back!"

In the distance, eager shouts came, and Li Lian's scrubbing action froze immediately, and she looked into the distance in disbelief.

He saw a tall and strong figure running towards him, it was Gu Erniu whom he had been thinking about day and night.

"Two cows!"

Li Lian's suffocated tears burst out of her eyes, and she staggered towards Gu Erniu. She felt like she was dreaming, but when her body was embraced by those powerful arms, she realized that all of this was real.

Gu Erniu is really back!
"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

Li Lian's tears wet Gu Erniu's chest, and slapped Gu Erniu fiercely. The uneasiness, fear, and anxiety of the past few days were completely vented at this moment, and she burst into tears.

Gu Wan, who was playing with ants, didn't know why, but he also burst into tears and rushed over to hug his father's thigh tightly.

Gu Erniu hugged his wife and son, his eyes full of guilt.

He had just returned to the village, and when he learned that there was a wild wolf attack in the village a few days ago, he was about to go crazy and ran home desperately.

Seeing that Li Lian and Gu Wan were safe and sound at this time, a huge stone fell from his heart.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

Gu Erniu comforted his wife, his eyes were also flushed.

After a while, the two stopped their emotions, and the family of three showed smiles.

The two hugged each other and talked about what had happened in recent days. When they heard that wild wolves had entered the house, Gu Erniu broke into a cold sweat from fright.

Li Lian said to Gu Erniu seriously:

"Er Niu, if it weren't for Ah Sheng, you might never see our mother and child. Ah Sheng risked his life to rescue us. We must thank him well!"
