Why do we say that ordinary heroic spirits are arbitrary for eternity?

Chapter 56 Huang Zhong, the salt-boiler

Lu Yu never thought about hiding anything.

He and Bai Yuyao, as Yuling and Master, have the same interests.

Bai Yuyao can become stronger and learn more spells, which does no harm to Lu Yu.

No matter how hard a practitioner works, he or she will end up working behind closed doors.

Teach the technique to Bai Yuyao and let her learn it together. With someone who can discuss it, Lu Yu can also gain some experience.

So basically as soon as Lu Yu had the technique, he passed it on to Bai Yuyao.

After passing on the thunder method.

Taking advantage of Bai Yuyao's study, Lu Yu began to try to use this spiritual body to practice.

After just a brief try, there was indeed spiritual energy entering the body. With the operation of the technique, the spiritual energy in the air and the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone in his hand were continuously transformed into strands of spiritual power.

There is no doubt that it can be practiced.

And it’s a lot faster!

Although it can't be compared with a talented guy like Bai Yuyao, it is at least much faster than his own time and space!
  It seems that my idea is correct!

"Fortunately, when I was summoned, with my intervention, the time flow rate on both sides was equal."

"Otherwise, if you practice a little bit, ten days and a half will pass by, and the gain will outweigh the loss."

"The only question that needs to be considered now is whether these transformed spiritual powers can be brought back..."

Lu Yu didn't think too much, he just started practicing seriously.

A blink of an eye.

It was already getting late.

Lu Yu opened his eyes, felt tired, and stopped practicing.

This half-day's effort is equivalent to several days of practice over there.

It's several times faster.

If you can come here often, you can indeed speed up your practice.

It's a pity that the speed is still far from the speed I expected...

Lu Yu speculated that it might be because he had only reached the warrior level.

If you reach the level of hero, hero or even legend in the future, your cultivation speed will definitely be faster!
  Right now, not far away.

Bai Yuyao actually 'floated' over.

"What do you think of my move?" Bai Yuyao said proudly.

"Hey." Lu Yu looked at this scene with some surprise.

Under Bai Yuyao's body, there was a steady stream of updrafts, as if he was carrying a jetpack and levitating briefly.

That was Bai Yuyao using her spiritual power to influence the airflow and lift herself up!

The angle of this move is very novel!

The second step of Thunder Method, affecting nature, can still be played like this?
  "You have so many clever ideas..." Lu Yu couldn't help but complain.

"It's just that the consumption of spiritual power is a bit high, and it's hard to turn." Bai Yuyao said while struggling to control the airflow in her upper body.

"It's so big, it makes you float." Lu Yu smiled.

This move is not a serious floating technique, so the consumption of spiritual power is a bit too scary.

After chatting for a while and exchanging their thoughts on Lei Fa, Lu Yu and Bai Yuyao agreed on a summoning time and went back.

No surprise, the spiritual power was brought back and quickly integrated into Lu Yu's body!
  But what followed was the feeling of exhaustion from practicing for a long time.

It is obviously impossible to seamlessly connect here and continue practicing.

……

A young man with a Chinese character face walked to the recruitment desk on Taiping Road.

"Name?" Shen Tu, the Taiping Taoist who wrote the name, asked casually without raising his head.

"Huang Zhong." The young man replied.

"Where do you live?" Shentu Meng continued to ask.

"Wan County." Huang Zhong said.

"Oh, it's quite far."

Shentu suddenly raised his head and realized that the person in front of him was tall, eight feet tall.

He is so strong and cannot afford it if his family has no assets. He seems to be a martial arts practitioner, so it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Although he was dressed a little more plainly and didn't look like a powerful person from a wealthy family, he still wasn't qualified for this job.

"This little brother, from the looks of it, you don't seem to need this job, do you?" Shentu said with a smile.

"My family is so poor that I have no choice but to go out and find a job." Huang Zhong said helplessly.

"Okay, what position do you want to apply for?" Shentu asked.

"Boil saltpeter." Huang Zhong replied decisively.

Taiping Road recruits people who work hard, and because of the special and hard work, the treatment is very high. The monthly salary is [-] yuan, which is [-] yuan a year! Of course, it cannot be calculated like this.

After all, no one can work for a full year.

But even so, it is still a very good salary.

This is also the reason why Huang Zhong came here specially.

"Is there a guarantor?" Shentu asked.

"Yes, I know someone with Lu Qushuai who can vouch for me." Huang Zhong said quickly, and then took out the letter of introduction and guarantee.

This thing is the most important thing.

Without a guarantee, it would be impossible to get a job at Taiping Road.

Seeing the letter of guarantee, Shentu nodded fiercely: "Okay! It's absolutely no problem for you to go to Botaner with your conditions. They need people like you over there!"

"Thank you, brother!" Huang Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and said with some gratitude.

"By the way, do you want to join the Taiping Dao? I think with your conditions, it is absolutely no problem to become a believer." Shen Tumeng said.

"This..." After hearing this, Huang Zhong hesitated and couldn't help but think about it.

"If you join Taiping Dao and make saltpeter, you can get [-] yuan a month!" Shentu said with a smile.

"Two thousand five hundred dollars?! I want to join!!" Huang Zhong's eyes lit up and he changed his mind instantly.

How can you miss such a high salary?
  A penny stumps a heroic man. Huang Zhong was originally a concubine of the Huang family, a wealthy family in Nanyang.

When his father was not dead, he could still get some credit, and he could practice martial arts and read and write.

After his father died, his life suddenly became difficult. Not to mention continuing to practice martial arts, even eating became a problem.

In the beginning, I could borrow some money to make ends meet, but as I borrowed money, I became bored.

Huang Zhong could only find a way to survive on his own.

I did a lot of work, but it only cost me a few hundred dollars a month. I could barely afford to eat, and there was no way I could continue practicing martial arts.

Finally, through an introduction, I found a job on Taiping Road and worked tirelessly to get there.

To him, the face of the so-called 'rich family' means nothing at all.

You can't live anymore, why do you care about this?

The same is true for joining Taipingdao now.

a few days later.

After a long journey, the group finally arrived at their destination - a naturally formed sinkhole!

At first glance, the tiankeng was so dark that it was impossible to see the bottom. Even Huang Zhong, who had seen a lot of the world, could not help but turn pale. He subconsciously asked: "Are we going down?"

Wang Yong, the accompanying deacon of Taiping Road, said with a smile: "Don't worry, you won't fall to death. We have prepared a long enough rope, just slide down slowly!"

Huang Zhong swallowed hard, and only now did he finally understand why Taipingdao paid such a high salary.

It's too dangerous!

Ordinary people simply can’t do it, and without a high enough salary, who would be willing to work?

At this moment, some people's legs were weak and they were retreating.

Seeing this scene, Wang Yong, the deacon of Taiping Dao, did not mean to stop him. Instead, he said with a smile: "We at Taiping Dao are not a government. If you want to quit, of course you can. We will not force you to continue."

"It's just that if you quit now and want to come back later, it will be impossible."

"It is absolutely impossible for us to recruit people who come back."

"I kindly advise you, think carefully now and don't make a decision easily, otherwise you will regret it and there is no point in asking me for mercy."

As soon as these words came out, the people who had originally retreated fell silent.

Wang Yong is right. If they quit now, they won't be able to get such a high salary.

That’s fifteen hundred dollars, and there are two meals a day!

This kind of treatment is impossible to get outside.

These days, even if you sell yourself to a powerful man as a cow or horse, it will only cost three to four hundred yuan a month.

What ability do they have to get so much money?

A very real question: Which is more terrifying, death or poverty?
  Death is terrible, but poverty is even more terrible.

People will die sooner or later, and they will die a hundred times, but poverty is different.

If you are alone, you will be penniless at best, helpless, and living like a zombie, with nothing to eat but nothing to eat.

But if you are not alone, if your parents are seriously ill and cannot afford medical treatment, your children will cry heartbrokenly because of hunger, but have no food to feed them.

The pain of being tortured by life is far greater than death.

For people at the bottom like them, death is really not scary, poverty is more scary!
  Thinking about it this way, the danger at this moment seems to be nothing.

After all, you don't really die.

Just be careful.

If you leave, you will really suffer poverty.
