Chapter Seventy-Five: Help
As the sound approached, five shirtless men walked in, all of them had dark complexions, their bodies were as strong as oxen, and the muscles on their bodies were as perfect as carvings, faintly exuding a metallic luster against the background of sweat.
When the black man in charge saw them, he smacked the chests of the five people one by one with his fist, making five muffled sounds, and said with satisfaction, "It seems that you have made progress again!"
He smiled at Bai Mei and introduced, "This is the five elites of our wood-cutting group in the Shushan Miscellaneous Servants, and they can exceed the task by ten times every day, you can work with them in the future, remember to learn more from the senior brothers, even if you can't step into the avenue, you will never give up your pursuit." ”
After the strong man in charge left, the five strong men of the wood-chopping group immediately came over to say hello, and the leader was full of smiles, his voice was very rough, and said, "Oh! It turned out to be a new junior brother! From now on, we will be a family, my name is Da Zhuang, they are called Erzhuang, Sanzhuang, Sizhuang, and Wuzhuang, what is your name?"
Without waiting for Bai Mei to answer, the leading man said again, "Oh! Forget it, when you enter the Tao, you have to forget the mortal world, the name of the mortal world is not important, you were born with two white eyebrows, it is better to call it 'Liuzhuang'!"
In this way, Bai Mei changed his name from Erha to Liuzhuang.
The five strong men were all very enthusiastic, and Da Zhuang faced the other four Zhuang and said excitedly, "Oh! Let's hold a warm welcome ceremony for the new six strong men!"
After that, they centered on the white eyebrows, swayed their chest muscles one after another, and hugged each other.
At first, he was still able to eat, but as the five strong men hugged him tighter and tighter, and even the sound of muscle friction could be clearly heard, Bai Mei was already about to suffocate, and couldn't help but scream loudly, "Help!"
At this time, the five strong men all sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped back and let go of the white eyebrows, and the leading strong man said guiltily, "Oh! I'm sorry for the six strong, the wood-chopping group hasn't added new members for a long time, we just want to express our excitement." ”
Bai Mei gasped, and waved his hand again and again, "It's okay, it's okay! It's all because I'm too thin, I have to exercise more in the future, and become as strong as all my senior brothers as soon as possible!"
Seeing Bai Mei's determination, the other five Zhuang were very pleased, and they chatted with him one after another, looking happy and harmonious.
However, this happiness did not last long, and on a tree outside their house, Luo Qianhe was watching through the window. He didn't know what was going on in the room, but he heard a scream from Bai Mei, and he kept panting and shaking his hands, as if begging them to stop.
I thought to myself, "It turns out that the rumors that the miscellaneous servants are bullying newcomers is true, no, the junior brother needs my help!"
In the early morning of the next day, Bai Mei went to the mountains with the other five Zhuang to chop firewood. The sun is like fire, and the heat is scorching, as if the air is burning. He felt tired and thirsty after chopping two loads of firewood, and after swinging his axe a few times, he finally could not hold it anymore, and leaned against a large tree, and sat down.
But the other five Zhuang were completely tireless, like a tree-cutting machine, getting more and more energetic, and soon cut down a forest.
Bai Mei watched each of them chop at least twenty loads of firewood, and then looked at his pitiful two loads, feeling shy, and barely propped himself up to get the axe.
At this time, Da Zhuang came over and said to him gently, "Oh! You are not used to it when you first came, don't force yourself, rest first, let's go to other places to continue." ”
Bai Mei nodded in response, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "It's so hot, don't you feel tired!"
Da Zhuang smiled meaningfully, and said, "Oh, you just didn't understand, chopping wood is a man's romance!" After that, he turned to leave, and called Bai Mei to look at his strong back with a blank expression.
After a while, the five Zhuang of the wood-cutting group came to another mountain forest in the distance, looked at the trunk that was thicker than before, and Da Zhuang said with satisfaction, "Oh! This forest is so suitable for exercising muscles, brothers, let's start!"
As soon as they raised their axes, a ray of light fell from the sky, and Luo Qianhe appeared from it, holding a fairy sword, and his beautiful face was as cold as frost, as if he was angry.
When Da Zhuang saw him, he respectfully bowed his hand and greeted, "Oh! It turned out to be Senior Sister Luo, it's really a long way off!"
Luo Qianhe snorted coldly and said, "It turns out that you still know my senior sister, I thought that the miscellaneous servants were in Shushan, and they had their own faction!"
Hearing his words, Da Zhuang looked confused and asked, "Oh, senior sister, what do you mean by this?"
Luo Qianhe stretched out his right hand and pointed at him, his frosty white face turned red, and he said sharply, "Still pretending to be stupid, I know all about your bullying newcomers!"
Da Zhuang and the other four Zhuang looked at each other, and said aggrievedly, "Oh! We have never bullied a newcomer, and we have only been here for a few years in the wood-chopping group, we get along very well with each other, Senior Sister Luo, you must have misunderstood!"
Luo Qianhe looked disdainful about Da Zhuang's explanation, and said awe-inspiringly, "Don't pretend to be garlic, I already know everything about your bullying Erha." ”
He pointed his finger in front of everyone again, and said angrily, "Remember, if you dare to bully him in the future, I will let you see the rules of Shushan!"
After saying that, he turned into light and left, leaving the five Zhuang of the wood-chopping group in place, and after they thought for a while, the second Zhuang said angrily, "It must be the sixth Zhuang who beat a small report!"
Da Zhuang was puzzled, "Why did he make a small report, could it be any good for him?"
Sanzhuang answered, "He must have felt that he couldn't get along with us with perfect muscles, he didn't want to be with us, and he couldn't find a reason, so he ran to Senior Sister Luo to sue us!"
Hearing this, the other four Zhuang nodded one after another, and Da Zhuang said, "Unexpectedly, the six Zhuang look honest, but in fact, their stomachs are full of bad water!"
On another hill, Bai Mei waited in place for a long time and did not see Wuzhuang return, so he went up to the mountain to look for it, but no matter how he shouted, he did not get half a response.
After a while, he was so hungry that he walked back to the servants' office alone, and when he returned to the dormitory, he saw that they were eating.
People who cultivate the truth generally eat lightly, and they can even eat without eating above the tenth layer of condensation, but the round table in front of them is unreasonably filled with all kinds of good dishes.
Bai Mei walked into the round table and asked Wu Zhuang with a smile, "Senior brothers, why don't you call me when you come back?"
Da Zhuang changed his previous kind appearance, and said coldly, "Oh! We forgot about the wood-chopping group and you, and we forgot to prepare your meal, since you are close to Senior Sister Luo, why don't you go to her place to eat!"
Bai Mei couldn't adapt to the change in Da Zhuang's attitude, and asked, "Why did Senior Brother say that?
Da Zhuang didn't speak, and Er Zhuang interjected, "We don't dare to drive you away, in case you go to Senior Sister Luo to complain again, it may be us who will have to leave!"
Regarding the trumped-up charges, Bai Mei repeatedly defended, "I didn't! The senior brothers are so good to me, how can I go to sue the senior sister?"
Da Zhuang suddenly became furious, slapped the table, shook the food all over the table, and said, "Then you have to ask yourself!"
Bai Mei was so frightened that he took a few steps back, slammed on the door, and repeated again, "I didn't!
Da Zhuang felt that he had heard enough of his quibbles, and said angrily, "Senior Sister Luo has already told us, so don't be coy here!
Seeing that he couldn't explain clearly, it was useless to continue, his eyes were moist with grievance, he rushed out of the door, hid his face and ran outside the house.
In the huge Shu Mountain, there was no one to confide in the grievances in his heart, and he had nowhere to go when he left the wood-cutting group, so he had to go back to the mountain where he had just chopped wood, and hid and cried.
He thought of his deceased father, if Luo Qianhe hadn't driven away the river god, how could he have risked collecting medicine and fell to his death because he had no livelihood.
If it weren't for his father's death, how could his mother leave him alone and remarry in another country. And the new friends I just met, how could I mistake myself for a villain who loves to report.
Thinking of this, his tears poured out like a bursting embankment, and he felt a trace of hatred for Luo Qianhe in his heart.
At this time, a pretty figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and the owner of this figure was Luo Qianhe.
Luo Qianhe looked at him sadly, his willow eyebrows tightened, and he said angrily, "It must be that the five strong people of the wood-chopping group are bullying you again, go and take you to teach them a lesson!"
Seeing Luo Qianhe's righteous and awe-inspiring look, Bai Mei didn't know where the courage came from, stood up straight, pointed at her and scolded, "You don't want to help people anymore! If it weren't for you, the five strong people in the wood-chopping group wouldn't have targeted me!"
Luo Qianhe was stunned, she didn't know what to say for a while, she lowered her head, as if she remembered some past, her eyes were moist because of this, and she whispered from her mouth, "I just want to help." ”
Bai Mei then said sternly, "Then you can send me back to the village! I can't stay in the miscellaneous service anymore, and I no longer want to be an immortal." What's more, I don't want to see you again, a fool who spends all day helping around!"
Bai Mei's last sentence was like a sharp knife piercing her heart, and she secretly thought to herself, "If someone is willing to help us at that time, then my mother will not die of illness, and my brother will not starve to death." I just want more fairness and justice in the world, I just don't want the tragedy I experienced to happen to someone else at once, that's all. ”
However, Bai Mei didn't hear this, took a step closer, and said aloud to her, "I beg you, just find someone to take me down the mountain, and don't come to help me from now on!"
At this point, Luo Qianhe sighed lightly, and quietly formed a magic seal in her right hand, and then a gust of wind blew, and when she was distracted by her white eyebrows, she hurriedly wiped away the tears that were about to be left, forced a smile, and said, "Since I took you up the mountain, then I will send you away!"
