Chapter 170 Le Zi Ren, Shi Le Zhi
The practice of the mirror power of Shadow Hiding Skill is very difficult, which is why Qian Jin has only achieved a small success after practicing for so many years.
Gu Sheng practiced for a while and gradually found some tricks. Of course, all this is the credit of the panel and has little to do with Gu Sheng's understanding.
There is no time in practice. Gu Sheng, who was immersed in practice, had no perception of the passage of time. He had not finished practicing until the afternoon of the next day.
Fire Bamboo Forest
At this time, the sun had begun to set in the west. Most of the errand disciples had completed their tasks. Only a few people who worked slowly were still finishing. One of them was sweating profusely and working very efficiently. He was Liu Yiming.
At this time, he was taking care of the area that Gu Sheng was responsible for. At this time, a man wearing the uniform of the Shengdan Sect and holding a small notebook in his hand came over arrogantly.
The man was much older than Liu Yiming and the others. He was about 30 years old, with a pointed face and a small tuft of pitiful hair on his head, and the rest of his body was covered with large patches of red spots.
He was Shi Lezhi, the manager of the errand disciples.
Shi Lezhi's cultivation level is not high, only the Bronze Bone Realm. Logically speaking, with his qualifications, it is impossible for him to become a disciple of the Shengdan Sect, but he has a good father.
Shi Lezhi's father is a manager of the outer sect of Lingdan Peak.
Shi Lezhi's father also knew that his son's talent was impossible to become a formal disciple, so he used elixirs to force Shi Lezhi to the Bronze Bone Realm and then found some connections to arrange such an idle position for Shi Lezhi in the sect.
The work of this position is very easy, just check the work of the chores disciples every once in a while, and then send the fire bamboo to Lingdan Peak at a fixed time.
The salary of this position does not have cultivation resources, but there is one thousand taels of silver every month. Shi Lezhi also knows his talent, so he simply does not work hard to cultivate, and often soaks in the major brothels in Shengdan City.
The daily expenses are huge, and the salary alone is not enough to support his entertainment, so he often uses the convenience of his job to find some unfounded charges to blackmail the chores disciples.
The errand disciples were also angry but dared not speak out. They hated him so much in their hearts that they called him Shi Ba Pi behind his back!
After seeing Shi Lezhi, the errand disciples who had finished their work and were resting immediately stood up and pretended to be working.
Shi Lezhi walked to the edge of the fire bamboo in the front and pretended to check it. His expression became serious.
"Who is responsible for this piece?"
A person in the Jade Skin Realm hurriedly nodded and bowed to Shi Lezhi and said, "Master Shi, I am responsible for this piece! I have always worked diligently and conscientiously and have never made any mistakes. You know that, right?"
As he said that, he took out two silver ingots and stuffed them into Shi Lezhi's hands.
Shi Lezhi often blackmailed these errand disciples. He was familiar with this process. After touching the size of the ingot, he knew that there were fifty taels here! He put the ingot into the cloth bag on his waist and smiled, "Well! Not bad, you work very carefully, do a good job!"
Then he walked to the next area.
The errand disciples worked so hard every month that they could only get a salary of 300 taels. However, Shi Lezhi came to check twice a month, and each time was 50 taels. Although it was painful, they had no other choice. Who told Shi Lezhi that he had a good father?
There were more than 50 errand disciples, and 50 taels per person was not a small amount.
These errand disciples were used to it. The process went by very quickly. Shi Lezhi soon came to the area in charge of Liu Yiming. When Shi Lezhi didn't see anyone, he immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Who is in charge of this area? Where are the people?"
At this time, Liu Yiming had just finished taking care of the area in charge of Gu Sheng. He hurried over and took out a silver note of 100 taels and stuffed it into Shi Lezhi's hand and said with a smile: "Master Shi, I am in charge of this area! You know how I work, and I have never made any mistakes. In addition, I also helped to take care of Junior Brother Gu's area."
Shi Lezhi glanced at the silver note in his hand and smiled : "Oh, you are so energetic, you even help others with work?"
Shi Lezhi put the banknotes in his pocket, walked to the area that Gu Sheng was in charge of, and sneered: "Oh, you are here to show off? Don't you know that today is my inspection day? Even no one came to see me, this is not taking me seriously!"
Liu Yiming had a bad feeling when he heard this, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Master Shi, he just feels a little uncomfortable today, it's not intentional. You see, he also knows the rules, you can just bypass him this time." Liu Yiming patted the money bag on Shi Lezhi's waist to emphasize that Gu Sheng also gave money.
Shi Lezhi is not a fool. The time of these menial disciples is precious. Basically, they will seize the time to practice after finishing their work. Gu Sheng, a newcomer who has no friendship with Liu Yiming, how could he help Gu Sheng with work for no reason? There must be an exchange of interests!
Shi Lezhi immediately pretended to be furious and slapped Liu Yiming in the face. The slap was so heavy that blood came out of Liu Yiming's nose and mouth.
"You are speaking for him like this, I'm afraid you have received money from him! Ha, the sect asked you to take care of the fire bamboo to train you, and he actually asked you to do it for him. If the people above find out, they will accuse me of dereliction of duty?"
Shi Lezhi shouted at Liu Yiming: "Where is he now? Let him come to see me!"
Liu Yiming was bleeding profusely at this time. When he saw the anger on Shi Lezhi's face, he was a little scared and dared not continue talking. He could only endure the pain and come to Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng locked the door and was practicing in the room.
Liu Yiming knocked for a while and saw no movement, then increased his strength and shouted: "Senior Brother Gu, are you there? Senior Brother Gu?"
Gu Sheng, who was practicing, heard Liu Yiming's voice and hurriedly ended his practice and opened the door.
After seeing Liu Yiming's tragic situation, Gu Sheng was a little surprised: "What did you do? Were you beaten?"
Among the handyman disciples, Liu Yiming's cultivation level was already in the first echelon. Logically speaking, no one should be able to beat him into this state.
"Come in quickly and tell me why you were beaten."
Gu Sheng thought Liu Yiming came to him for help, so he pulled him into the house to understand the cause and effect.
Liu Yiming covered his nose and did not enter the room. He said with an anxious expression: "Senior Brother Gu, the person in charge of our handyman disciples came to inspect the work. When he saw that you were not around, he used this as an excuse to ask you to see him. This person is a Zhou. It's all about money, just give him a little bit and that's it."
Gu Sheng frowned slightly, "Is this why you got beaten?"
Liu Yiming nodded and admitted, and Gu Sheng suddenly felt angry in his heart.
"By the way, Senior Brother Gu, you're going to pretend to be sick soon. Don't let him know that I'm working for you because I took your money, otherwise he'll have to squeeze both of us dry!"
Gu Sheng's face was full of coldness at this time. He snorted coldly and pulled Liu Yiming out of the wooden house: "Let's go, take me to see him!"
Soon, the two came to the fire bamboo forest.
Shi Lezhi saw Gu Sheng coming and sneered: "Don't you look quite healthy? You are so brave, you dare to pretend to be sick! Don't you know that today is the day when I come to inspect? How dare a newcomer not come to see me? , did you not take me seriously?"
Gu Sheng glanced at him with a cold face and asked, "See you? I have completed the work assigned to me by the sect. What do you want me to do?"
A playful smile appeared on Shi Lezhi's face: "Did you complete that work? He did it for you! Why, didn't I see that you are a rich man? You can still afford to hire people to do the work. I But let me tell you, this is not feasible here! Unless..."
As he spoke, Shi Lezhi patted the money bag on his waist, and the silver inside swayed and made a clicking sound. His intention was very obvious, which was to ask Gu Sheng to pay him a sum of money.
Although Gu Sheng didn't care about the hundreds or so taels, he didn't like the feeling of being blackmailed! Moreover, this man even beat Liu Yiming for this, which made him even angrier!
Gu Sheng had a lot of chats with Mo Buwen on the way back yesterday. Mo Buwen told him that fighting within the sect was not prohibited, as long as no lives were lost.
Although Lu Junyi asked him to start as a handyman disciple, Gu Sheng guessed from his behavior when he saw Ge Qing's token that if he really committed a crime, Lu Junyi would definitely protect him!
Therefore, he did not take Shi Lezhi seriously!
Gu Sheng took out a one hundred tael silver note and waved it in front of Shi Lezhi: "Want this?"
Shi Lezhi saw that the expression on Yinqiao's face softened a lot, and he even smiled lightly and said, "If you were sensible, this matter would be easier to handle!"
However, just as he reached out to take it, Gu Sheng stuffed the banknote into Liu Yiming's hand: "This is the medical expenses Master Shi gave you. Why don't you thank Master Shi quickly?"
Liu Yiming and Shi Lezhi were both stunned by Gu Sheng's operation.
After reacting, Shi Lezhi's face turned red with anger: "Are you kidding me?"
Gu Sheng smiled and said: "Tricking you? Are you worthy?"
When the former handyman disciple saw Shi Lezhi, he was not respectful. Over the years, he was used to being domineering. When he saw that Gu Sheng dared to humiliate him like this, he was so angry that he slapped Gu Sheng: "You've rebelled against him. You! If I don’t take care of you today, you won’t be able to tell the difference between the king and the king, right?”
Although Shi Lezhi is also in the Bronze Bone Realm, his cultivation relies heavily on the accumulation of elixirs. In addition, his body has long been hollowed out by his life of sensuality, so his combat power is only stronger than that of a person who has perfected the Blood Refining Realm. Then throw it away.
Gu Sheng grabbed Shi Lezhi's hand and quickly kicked him in the stomach.
Shi Lezhi immediately arched his body into a shrimp shape in pain, clutching his stomach and screaming repeatedly. This was all the result of Gu Sheng deliberately withholding his strength, otherwise if he kicked with all his strength, Shi Lezhi would be disabled even if he did not die.
The disciple who originally wanted to watch a show was stunned for a moment when he saw that Gu Sheng actually hit Shi Lezhi.
After coming back to their senses, although they were secretly happy, they all dispersed in panic. Shi Lezhi's father was more or less a steward, and he was also a superior being to handyman disciples like them. They didn't dare to watch any more, lest they get hurt. Time was implicated.
Liu Yiming was also so frightened that his face turned pale and he shouted in his heart that he was finished.
"You! You dare to hit me, you are finished! I will make your life worse than death!"
Shi Lezhi clutched his stomach and growled at Gu Sheng with a ferocious expression.
Liu Yiming also wanted to drag Gu Sheng away and said quickly: "Senior Brother Gu, leave quickly! His father is the manager of the outer sect of Lingdan Peak. If he is caught, he will definitely torture you! Hurry up! Run away, as long as you leave the mountain gate, his father won't be able to mobilize much power to catch you for such a small thing!"
Gu Sheng, however, remained motionless and comforted Liu Yiming: "You don't have to be too nervous. The sect has rules. Fighting between people of the same level of cultivation is allowed, as long as no one is killed. His skills are inferior to others, no matter where he ends up." I’m right too!”
Liu Yiming has been in Shengdan Sect for a while. He naturally knows this rule, but Gu Sheng ignored one. They are not official disciples. There is a level difference between them!
"Hey! Isn't this Shi Lezhi? Why are you lying on the ground rolling around? What did you do today?"
While he was anxious, a joking voice came from the distance.
Following the sound, there was a bright figure in the distance. Gu Sheng also knew this person, officially the senior sister of the outer sect of Ares Peak, Lin Miaomiao!
Shi Lezhi is also somewhat famous among the outer disciples of the Shengdan Sect, and is known as a fun person.
Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but make a joke when she saw this scene.
Shi Lezhi, who was in pain and looked hideous, immediately became happy when he saw Lin Miaomiao, and immediately shouted to Lin Miaomiao: "Senior Sister Lin, please help me take down this murderer!"
Lin Miaomiao walked to Gu Sheng, looked at Gu Sheng and then at Shi Lezhi, looked at Gu Sheng and asked, "What's going on?"
Gu Sheng spread his hands: "It's normal for sects to fight, but his skills are inferior to others."
When Shi Lezhi heard this, he immediately became furious: "Bah! You're still fighting normally, you're worthy of being a handyman disciple? Do you know who my father is?"
After saying that, he looked at Lin Miaomiao: "Senior Sister Lin! Help me capture him quickly. When you go to Lingdan Peak to ask for medicine in the future, I will let my father take the lead in arranging it for you!"
Lin Miaomiao was not confused. He knew that Gu Sheng had an extraordinary background. Although he didn't know why the elder asked him to start as a handyman disciple, this did not mean that he was really the same as other handyman disciples.
Lin Miaomiao squatted down and whispered in Shi Lezhi's ear: "Shi Lezhi, have you really lost your mind? Junior Brother Gu is already at the Bronze Bone Realm at the age of seventeen. Do you really think he is an ordinary miscellaneous person? Disciple? By the way, don’t you usually hang out with the core disciple Chen Kesi? Why, he didn’t tell you that Junior Brother Gu was personally arranged to come in? You don’t really think that your father is an outsider? As a steward, you can really do whatever you want!"
Shi Lezhi was shocked when he heard this. He just blamed his defeat on himself for not being good at fighting, and his body was drained by alcohol and sex. He never expected that Gu Sheng would be at the Bronze Bone Realm. Of course, this is what Gu Sheng is used to. He had to use the breath shooting technique to hide his breath, which led to his misjudgment.
When he looked at Gu Sheng again, he realized that the man in front of him was so young! At this time, Shi Lezhi was horrified, and for a while he did not dare to ask Lin Miaomiao to take down Gu Sheng.
Lin Miaomiao stood up and shrugged: "Let's go, it's okay!" (End of Chapter)
