Wuling Xianyuan

Chapter 18

"This junior, please stay here first." Zhu Youcai stared at Wang Chong and said with a smile.

"Yes." Although he was unhappy, Wang Chong could only admit that he was unlucky. He was keenly aware of the danger hidden behind Senior Brother Zhu's smile. He was afraid that as long as he had a slight objection, a series of troubles would follow.

Seeing that Wang Chong was so obedient, Zhu Youcai was very satisfied. He nodded, and then his eyes swept over the others, but he didn't choose a second person for a long time, as if he was very embarrassed.

Seeing this, Wang Chong sneered in his heart. The purpose of this Senior Brother Zhu is already very obvious. He gave something to Senior Uncle Liu in front of everyone, but now he hesitates after pointing out the person with the worst qualifications. This kind of hint is just right. .

All the people present were smart people, and soon someone figured out that senior brother Zhu's attention was nothing more than wanting to get some benefits from the new disciples, but right now there is a lack of a pathfinder, and it seems that no one is willing to be the first to stand up .

Just when Zhu Youcai was waiting a little impatiently, someone finally made a move. I saw a thug young man running to Senior Brother Zhu's side, first flattered him, and then everyone clearly saw that the young man stuffed something into it Brother Zhu's hand, but immediately after the two opened and closed their mouths, the others couldn't hear anything.

"Enclosures!"

Some people's eyes lit up when they saw this scene, and then they saw that the two seemed to be chatting happily, and the young man seemed to hear something, his face was overjoyed, and he said something, and finally Senior Brother Zhu was on his shoulder. After patting it, I sent it back.

And that disciple had a proud face at this time, like a general who had won a battle. Seeing someone make a good start, the other disciples became more courageous, and another disciple tried to walk over, with an expression on his face. Although he hesitated, the speed under his feet was not slow, as if he was afraid of being preempted by others.

And the next scene was similar to what Wang Chong had imagined. Senior brother Ma had a mysterious and friendly 'silent' conversation with most of the new disciples, and these disciples also looked happy when they came back, but when they looked at Wang Chong Chong's eyes were more or less gloating, so Wang Chong could only sigh secretly and watch with cold eyes.

However, there was also a disciple who got into the horns and stared at his eyes angrily, but refused to go forward to communicate with him, and Zhu Youcai sneered after his eyes swept over him, and ignored him.

On the other hand, the little fat man Wang Dahu was not like the others. Instead, he stood in place, his eyes kept rolling, and he obviously didn't have any good ideas. When he noticed Wang Chong's gaze, he smiled. But he didn't say anything, and even when Zhu Youcai cast his gaze on him suggestively many times, he didn't respond.

Seeing that he didn't get the desired effect, Zhu Youcai didn't wait any longer. He put his hands behind his back, removed the soundproof cover calmly, and looked at everyone with embarrassment: "Everyone has their own difficulties. But this makes it very difficult for me, senior brother, if this is the case, then I will choose fewer people, and that is the only way to go."

Speaking of Zhu Youcai, he seemed to order four more people at random without looking up. Among these four people, apart from the little fat man Wang Dahu and another young man with an angry face, there were actually two other disciples who had talked with him, but looking at the two The disciple didn't seem to be surprised at all, but had a smile on his face, as if he knew it a long time ago.

"That's it. Brother, I'm already in a difficult situation. Don't complain. Others can leave on their own. This is a map. There are marks on it where disciples in the Yunling stage can go and where they can't. go."

Speaking of which, Zhu Youcai took out a few pieces of parchment, and generously gave them to the five people who were not selected. The five people looked very happy, took the map and quickly thanked them, and then left in a hurry, and Zhu Youcai just watched and stayed The few people in the group smiled, folded their arms in front of their chests, seemed to be thinking about something, and let out intriguing long sighs from time to time.

Just as Senior Brother Zhu was thinking, a ray of red light suddenly fell from the sky, and the red light dissipated, revealing a fat middle-aged man with two wide-eyed eyes, sweeping across everyone.

Zhu Youcai was taken aback by the sudden visitor, and quickly walked up with a smile on his face, and said, "Master Wang! Why are you here? I blame my nephew for my negligence. Uncle Liu sent some new disciples. Didn't notice you beforehand."

"Okay, okay, stop flattering, I'm here to pick up my nephew. Little bastard, don't let me out yet!" The man Zhu Youcai called Master Wang shouted, and the fat man next to Wang Chong Wang Dahu Immediately, he drooped his head and walked over. Brother Zhu's face turned green when he saw this.

"Oh, it turns out that Junior Brother Dahu is the nephew of Uncle Wang. He really is a good-looking talent. The real person doesn't show his face. It's all because of my poor eyesight. Otherwise, Junior Brother Dahu would have been sent to you in person." Zhu Youcai wanted to slap himself twice at this moment. , To actually want to make an idea of ​​the nephew of the alchemy master's uncle, wouldn't that cut off his own way.

And the chubby Uncle Wang didn't seem to have heard Zhu Youcai's words, grabbed Wang Dahu's ear, and said bitterly: "Stinky boy, just make trouble for me, and I'll take care of you when I get back."

I saw a red glow gushing out from his body, and after wrapping Wang Dahu, the two of them soared into the sky, disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye, and ignored Zhu Youcai at all.

When Uncle Wang left, Zhu Youcai's face darkened immediately, he turned around and looked at the remaining four people coldly, and said, "All follow me." Then he turned around and walked out quickly.

Wang Chong sighed inwardly, and followed, while the other boy sneered secretly when he saw this, and the other two looked at each other with bitterness on their faces.

Zhu Youcai brought Wang Chong and others to a row of dilapidated thatched huts. There were many disciples here, but when they saw Zhu Youcai, they all looked fearful. The person involved, Zhu Youcai, didn't care about it at all, but shouted with a gloomy face: "Are you all free? Are you done with today's tasks? Do you want me to find something for you to do!"

Hearing the words, the other people present immediately dispersed, and some staring people were also pulled away by the disciples beside them, obviously not daring to offend Zhu Youcai.

Immediately, Zhu Youcai walked into a thatched hut, and when he came out, he held four axes in his hands, and threw them in front of Wang Chong and the others, "Follow me with the axes."

Although Wang Chong was furious in his heart, Zhu Youcai's aura was undisguised. It was even stronger than Senior Brother Ma who died in his hands before. Furthermore, this place was within the sect. , can only pick up the ax and follow up like the other three.

Zhu Youcai led several people into a forest, pointed to the forest in front of him, and said with a sneer to Wang Chong, another disciple who had stared at him before: "From today onwards, you must chop a thousand catties of iron every day." Wood pine, otherwise there will be no food."

"One thousand catties? How is that possible..." Another disciple immediately expressed his dissatisfaction when he heard the words, but before he finished speaking, he heard a muffled groan from his mouth, and his body backed away involuntarily. After five steps, he looked at Zhu Youcai with horror on his face.

On the other hand, Wang Chong, even though he was also defenseless, just swayed his body and stood firmly on the spot. Seeing the flash of surprise in Zhu Youcai's eyes, Zhu Youcai immediately put away his breath, and said with a sneer: " Here I have the final say, obediently obey if you don’t have the strength, and don’t think that you have some skills and make any crooked ideas, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat.”

Wang Chong knew that the other party's last words were meant for him, and when he heard the other party asked him to chop wood here, he had already guessed that things might not be as simple as he imagined, but he had just used his divine sense to move the firewood in front of him. I scanned the woods, but found nothing wrong.

Walking to an arm-thin ironwood pine, Wang Chong raised the ax in his hand and swung it down.

"Ding!" There was a sound of metal colliding, and my hands couldn't help but feel numb.

"What is this? How can it be so hard!" Wang Chong was surprised, and saw only a very shallow white mark where the ax cut, not even scratching the bark.

He knows the power of this ax best. After all, he has also practiced body forging for three years, and his explosive power is not bad at all. With just one stroke of the ax, the thick wood of his arm can be cut off from the middle immediately, but the iron wood pine in front of him But nothing happened.

"Sure enough, there are some skills. No wonder Zhu Youcai asked us to chop a thousand catties of wood each. He thought it was a leisurely job, a thousand catties? Hehe, do you really think you can beat me?"

With a sneer in his heart, Wang Chong's face became serious, and the arm he raised again suddenly became thicker, and an ax fell down with a clanging sound, and the sawdust flew. After the sentence, he also found a small tree that was as thick as an arm, picked up the ax and chopped it down.

"Ouch!"

With a scream, the ax in the boy's hand had been bounced away, and he sat down on the ground, his outstretched right hand trembling uncontrollably. "Why is it so hard, is it wood or iron?"

However, when he set his eyes on Wang Chong, who was falling with his axe in his hand, his eyes almost fell off. After a while, Wang Chong had already chopped down a thigh-thin ironwood pine, and was heading towards another An ironwood pine of the same thickness walked.

Even so, Wang Chong had already scolded Zhu Youcai countless times in his heart. He seemed to have easily chopped down a Tiemu pine, but his arm was already a little numb. The reason why he was crazy just now was because he used his hand to The ax vented the resentment in his heart, and now he had to calm down and think about countermeasures.

At this time, the rhythm of his tree-cutting also slowed down. Although the speed has slowed down, his arms have been relaxed, and Wang Chong can't help but recall the time when he practiced body training, and the ax in his hand can't help. It started to enter a very stable rhythm.

Body training is separated from more advanced body training. Although it is very different from body training, you can vaguely see some of them. It is just simpler, and the effect is naturally far worse, but it is very It is suitable for outer disciples, but Wang Chong is now an inner disciple of Thunder Fire Sect, so he can naturally try body training, but right now he still needs to complete the task assigned by Zhu Youcai first.

"I don't know if Su Mei is still angry with me. She doesn't know the news that I entered the inner sect."

For some reason, Wang Chong suddenly thought of Su Mei, and couldn't help but recall the strange dream that day in the inn in the underground imitation city. When he thought of Su Mei crying sadly, Wang Chong felt a pain in his heart, and at the same time, Yang Tai The face that made him hate also appeared in Wang Chong's mind.

"Bang!" The strength in Wang Chong's hand increased unconsciously, and another tree fell down.

Unknowingly, the night was getting darker. After Wang Chong cut down the last ironwood pine, a thousand catties was enough. On the other hand, the other person only cut down one tree in one day, which is already very rare. , I'm already tired and lying down, and Fang Gang's blood energy was almost consumed by the tree cutting.

Wang Chong didn't intend to help. He wouldn't act as a bad guy and help people cut down trees?Just kidding, it seems that he did it out of good intentions. Being a good person requires a certain degree of control. Wang Chong thinks he can't grasp it well, so he won't help.
