number one leader

Chapter 132

Chapter 132

This old guy was clearly pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, Chu Sheng listened to it as funny, but ignored him.He stopped for a while, and then turned his gaze to Qiu Tu. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt someone's gaze on him. He turned around and saw a young man hiding in a corner, his eyes never looked away from him. .The two looked at each other, his face was slightly pale, but he still didn't turn his eyes.

Chu Sheng secretly realized something in his heart, but he didn't reveal it for a while. Instead, he walked to Qiu Tu's side and said in a low voice: "Stay here, and watch this old man's alchemy process carefully. Be sure not to teach it to me. It's lazy."

Seven hours, that is, fourteen hours. At this time, Haishi is around ten o'clock in the night, and seven hours is already noon on the second day.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Sheng actually sent this person away to facilitate his own affairs. As the altar master, Qiu Tu naturally did not dare to disobey his orders, but he hesitated and said: "This matter of alchemy, I will also do it." I can't get in, let alone understand what it means."

"You don't need to understand!" Chu Sheng tossed his sleeve robe, and said with anger in his tone; "You just need to watch this old guy for me, and he fell asleep after seven hours. Think, if you succeed in alchemy, what kind of reward will you and I receive from the leader? How can this person be allowed to cheat here?"

Qiu Tu thought about it carefully, and it was indeed the case, and the hesitation in his heart naturally dissipated, so he nodded in response to the matter.

Only then did Chu Sheng secretly smile in his heart, nodded calmly on his face, and then turned away.

After walking a dozen steps along the exit, the young man in front of him suddenly came out from a fork in the side, his face was full of determination, and he suddenly stepped forward and bowed: "I hope the hero will save me!"

Chu Sheng's face remained motionless, and he stepped forward with his sword. The young man was also very dexterous, so he turned around and led Chu Sheng to a remote and deserted place in the fork in the road. After walking for a long time, he turned into a wide stone room. They are all herbal medicines such as Ganoderma lucidum, filled with a strong medicinal smell.

There is no one around at the moment, and no one will come here unless it is preparations for alchemy, it is extremely secretive.

The young man immediately knelt down on his knees and silently kowtowed a few times. When he got up, his face was covered with tears, and he said in a low voice, "Hero, please save me!"

Chu Sheng stood with his sword in his arms, his eyes were calm and unconscious, but he said in a flat tone; "So you have two hearts? Do you know that I am the altar master here, and asking me to ask for it, is it not asking for death?"

The young man leaned over again and said in a low voice: "The hero has come here as the altar master, so why bother to lie to me again."

"How do you know I'm not that person?"

"The man surnamed Gan has also come to urge him several times." The young man said in a deep voice, "I have observed carefully on weekdays. He steps out with his left foot first, and the hero is not like this, so I noticed it."

"The observation is very meticulous." Chu Sheng concealed his surprise in his heart, his face still remained motionless, but he slowly drew out his long sword, and said suddenly, "It's just that I want to step on my right foot today, what do you say?"

The young man raised his head slightly and saw the cold light of the sword, he couldn't help trembling all over, but his eyes remained firm and he said: "It's fine if it happens once or twice, but every time he will definitely put his left foot out first, it doesn't change from time to time. "

"The hero has sneaked here pretending to be him, and he must not have come here for nothing. I am also desperately trying. If the hero is not here to save me, then I will be killed here first." The young man Shen spoke with restraint and responded appropriately, he said: "This is the medicine storage room, there are still eight or nine hours before the next time to take medicine and make alchemy, no one will find my dead body in a while, you It’s good to have time to leave calmly.”

"Interesting." Chu Sheng smiled, closed the Changle sword, grabbed the young man's arm and pulled it up. He looked at the person in front of him, but he was only eleven or twelve years old, and his face was somewhat relieved. With the appearance of Xin'an, it seems that he knows that he has escaped a catastrophe, and his eyes are full of gratitude.

"You're still a teenager, but you're so mature and prudent." Chu Sheng shook his head, and the collection addiction surged up in his heart again, and he asked again; "What's your name, and where are you from?"

"My name is Ju Heng." The young man saluted, and Chu Sheng could see the outline of a scholar from it, and heard him speak humanely; "He is from Zhangshui County, Puyang City."

"Have you read poetry books?"

"My father is strict in teaching, and he has never fallen behind in the past."

"When was he taken captive to the mountain?"

".Four years ago." The young man named Juheng lowered his head, with unconcealable sadness and resentment in his eyes, "My family was originally a wealthy family in the county. They were doing some business and had accumulated tens of millions of wealth."

"But one day when the family went to Puyang City for business, they were stopped by the bandits on the mountain halfway. Fortunately, the family general was brave and repelled these bandits. But half a month later, hundreds of bandits came down the mountain .butchered my family."

"Because I was only eight years old and met the standards of these gangsters, they took me up to the mountain and kept me as a 'medicine man' for them to take blood and make alchemy. Two years later, because I was ten years old, I was taken away. I was going to kill me, but because I am usually well-behaved, many old men in this cave like me, and it happened that there was a shortage of manpower, so I was treated as a medicine boy to do these trivial things."

Chu Sheng nodded, and said again, "The rest of the young people are also in the same situation as you?"

"Either they were tricked into coming up the mountain, or were abducted here, there will be more than [-] children in two years." The boy's eyes were full of pain, his voice trembling; "but taking blood from the eight veins will hurt the body. Origin, most of them died during the period."

"Originally there were more than 40 children who survived, and more than 20 were cut off from arms, legs and feet, and their tongues were pulled out because of constant discipline on weekdays, and they were sent out to beg. There are only 23 people who are medicine boys in the cave, and they have never left the cave for two years, and most of them have gradually become numb. Because I have read poems and books in the past, and I know the truth, I was able to keep my heart and wait until the heroes came to rescue them."

Chu Sheng nodded his head to indicate clarity, and then asked, "What kind of elixir has been refining here for two years?"

"There are only two elixirs, one is called 'Returning Heart Pill' which is refined from the essence and blood of eight meridians; the other is 'Huanxue Pill' which is refined from the normal essence and blood of young children."

Before Gan Zong had something to say, Huanxin Dan was refined with the blood of his heart.The so-called "heart blood" does not literally refer to the blood drawn from the heart, but the blood governed by the heart. It comes from the essence of water and grain metabolized by the spleen and stomach, and is driven by the heart energy to flow through the eight channels of the whole body.And in this heart and blood, there is a weak innate qi, the innate qi contained in everyone's body, which is the basis of the internal force of practice.

Thinking about it, Chu Sheng already guessed in his heart that the Huanxin Pill was dedicated to the so-called mysterious leader, and he must be a master of the field of exterior scenes, and he must be in the realm of the strange scriptures of the six veins. In order to pass through the master of Rendu.

As for the Huanxue Pill, its effect is much less common than the Huanxin Pill, but it is also a pill that prolongs life and nourishes blood and nourishes Qi. It is divided into two uses by Si Mingshan.One is dedicated to many sects in Puyang City Mansion, which makes all sects turn a blind eye to such a green forest force in Puyang City Mansion, causing it to grow slowly; the other is to use it for personal use, that is, to practice the evil sect skills The method and knife method are consumed.

Chu Sheng already understood the ins and outs, but he still asked as if to supplement; "What else do you know?"

"There are three people in the cave, they are different from the usual gangsters." Ju Heng thought about it carefully and said, "They are very similar to the person following you."

"That's like Qiu Tu." Chu Sheng nodded. Regarding the masters on Siming Mountain, he asked many people one after another. What happened is that the information on young children provided has a lot of mistakes and omissions.As for Gan Zong, he might not have the intention of concealing the real situation, so as to teach Chu Sheng to make a mistake in his judgment and get stuck in it.

It's just that he never thought that Chu Sheng's human leather mask and other tools did not act recklessly, directly disturbing the cottage.Instead, he used his identity to find out the details of the village first.

"The truth on the surface is that Deng Ming, the former master of the three major villages, is dead, and Li Ying and Dong Ping are still there." Chu Sheng thought secretly in his heart, carefully deduced, "In the dark water, Gan Zong, Qiu Tuguan The matter of gathering bandits and attracting people from outside, the former is dead, but the latter is still there."

"There is another side of alchemy. Although Fan Laogou looks very sloppy, his technique of alchemy is not bad, and this method must be acquired by the Taoist alchemy school. I think his skill is not weak. In addition In addition, there are three more people guarding the cave, responsible for secretly guarding."

"Seven people like this are by no means easy to manage." While thinking about it, Chu Sheng had already made a decision, so he pressed his thoughts and said in a gentle voice: "Don't worry, since I have spent all my time sneaking in, it is just to replace the sky." Come on the road."

"As in the past, you can remain as you are. I have already thought about it in my heart."

Ju Heng thanked him again, and Chu Sheng comforted him for a while, and then he was about to leave first, but when he was about to leave, he was still a little worried and confessed: "This matter must not be said outside."

Ju Heng nodded in agreement and said, "Go away, great hero. I know how to deal with it, and I will not let the news leak out."

This is a calm young man, and Chu Sheng was actually not too worried, but the thoughts just burst out in his heart, and he said: "Don't call me that, I am the dragon head of the three mountains and thirteen peaks in Luolongcheng Mansion. The head of the sect is Junzi Jian Chusheng."

Ju Heng bowed and saluted, "I would like to thank Master Chu for the rescue."

Chu Sheng thought about it, but still asked, "Is there a place to go here?"

Ju Heng was stunned for a moment, but still said honestly: "The family was slaughtered, and there is nowhere to go."

"Are you interested in the imperial examination?"

"I am dissatisfied with the head of Chu. My father is a merchant, so he always places high hopes on me, hoping that I will be named on the gold list one day. Although I was young at that time, I finally lived up to the entrustment. The name of the child prodigy is heard everywhere." Ju Heng said something sadly, but turned around and said: "It's just that after this battle, my family was slaughtered and I was imprisoned for four years. I also gave up thinking about the imperial examination. If there is a chance in the future, I would like to transfer to Wutu. Holding a long sword is the only way to protect yourself, so as not to cause disasters to happen again."

"That's very good." Chu Sheng nodded, his eyes burning hotly said; "Since that's the case, you and I are destined to have both. Would you like to follow me up the mountain and come under my sect?"

silence

Ju Heng bowed his head and said nothing, this is a young man with a firm heart and a sense of balance in his actions, Chu Sheng did not seduce or force him, but just quietly waited for him to make a decision.

After a while, this person finally said: "Dare to ask Master Chu, does Master Chu have anything to do with the other children on the mountain?"

"When things are done, the government here will naturally send him home."

"What if I am homeless like me?"

Chu Sheng glanced at him, and said: "You don't need to test me, homeless people can be sent to my Longshoumen martial arts hall, and according to the old rules, they can worship at my peak gate."

"Those"

"Those with disabilities, if the original family is still willing to take care of them, they will be sent home; if there is nowhere to go, those with qualifications will remain as before; if the qualifications are mediocre, they will be servants on the peak."

"It should be noted that I don't support idlers above my peak gate. Although their experience is heartbreaking, they should not live their lives according to others." Chu Sheng said lightly; "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Ju Heng was silent for a moment, then suddenly knelt down on one knee and said, "Disciple Ju Heng, thank you for your kindness."

　Happy New Year everyone~
