Chapter 26: Gossip (Ask for Collection)
"I'll take you there. ”
The woman didn't dare to hesitate at all, for fear that Zhong Xingyue would attack her again.
"Okay, thank you then. ”
Zhong Xingyue maintained her proper polite tone, turned around and followed behind the woman.
The woman complained in her heart, when she was arrested just now, she was not the honest she is now!
"Wait!"
Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind.
Could it be that someone is not used to seeing it and wants to do the right thing for heaven?" the woman thought to herself
The two stopped and turned to look, only to see a gray-clothed young man parting from the crowd and walking towards Zhong Xingyue with steady steps.
Isn't this the Ji Xunchen? Didn't he say that he wanted to find a place by himself, why did he come here again? Zhong Xingyue thought suspiciously.
"I'm going to be with you. He didn't look at Zhong Xingyue, he only looked at the middle-aged woman, his eyes were very serious, as if he was telling the woman that she couldn't refuse.
Zhong Xingyue was even more puzzled, there were many women pulling people on the street, and he was not like himself, so he should be easy to find a place to live, why did he have to live with her?
Ji Xunchen's appearance was already cold, and her face was serious at this time, the woman was doing a private business near the National College, and she could see at a glance that this person had an extraordinary temperament, she must not be an ordinary person, this kind of person, she didn't dare to offend, but Zhong Xingyue She didn't want to offend, and finally had to look at Zhong Xingyue with an inquiring gaze.
"Let's be together, then. ”
Although she didn't know why Ji Zhuochen wanted to join her, she wouldn't make trouble with him for this trivial matter.
"Okay. The woman breathed a sigh of relief, so that she was not in a dilemma.
The woman's home is not far from here, in a relatively quiet alley, it is a clean and simple courtyard, the environment is elegant, Zhong Xingyue is very satisfied, she likes this kind of quiet place with few people.
In the inn outside, the high-grade room has two low-grade spirit stones a night, the medium-class room has five high-grade spirit beads a night, and the low-grade room has one high-grade spirit bead per night, while the rooms provided by the private houses here only need five low-grade spirit beads a night, and the price is half cheaper than the low-grade rooms in the inn outside.
Zhong Xingyue didn't know if it was her delusion, she always felt that since she came to live in this place, Ji Zhuochen seemed to have been watching her, whether she came out to eat or relax, she could always see that Ji Zhuochen in the room next to her was also coming out, and he didn't have anything to do, just to stay in the courtyard for a while.
"This man is probably sick. Zhong Xingyue couldn't help but complain in her heart
No matter what he thought, Zhong Xingyue didn't have time to guess, she had recently become obsessed with chopping wood, because Sora told her that chopping wood could practice her degree of control over things.
When she can chop firewood and accurately split the firewood in half, without leaving any traces on the stake, it proves that she has made progress and can proceed to the second step, the second step is to use the true yuan to chop the wood, ensure that the stake has no traces, and at the same time, make sure that the firewood cannot be chopped into pieces.
Zhong Xingyue began to think that chopping firewood was just a trivial matter, that farmer brother could cut firewood so well, I believe it wouldn't take long for her to do it, but after she really got started, she found that this matter was not so simple, it was easy to split firewood, but it was really difficult to ensure that there was not a trace left on the stake.
Either the axe went down, and the strength was small, and the firewood did not change, or the firewood simply split in half, and at the same time left a deep crack in the stake.
It's so hard to control your strength now, and when you use the True Element, wouldn't it be even worse?
The happiest thing is the male owner of this house, since Zhong Xingyue became obsessed with chopping wood, he no longer has to get up early to chop wood, every day Zhong Xingyue can cut out more firewood than he can cut out in three days, he is even wondering, is his wife really looking for a guest? Why does it look like finding a free labor?
The woman was also surprised, but people were willing to work, and she couldn't control it.
"What are you doing?"
Finally, on the afternoon of June 30, Ji Zhuochen couldn't help it, and came over to ask her curiously.
It stands to reason that the students who come to the national college to register will use the first few days of registration to conduct intense training and preparation, but this girl, she is here calmly chopping wood from beginning to end, as if this is her original job.
I didn't prepare, it was because I was sure of victory, but what about her? a little girl with a broken arm......
"Chopping wood. ”
Well, I know you're chopping wood, I can see it, but the question is, what are you chopping wood for?
Ji Xunchen was speechless at her answer.
Probably feeling the sudden silence in the air, Zhong Xingyue stopped the movements in his hand, "I'm practicing the grasp of strength, you can see it, I don't control my true yuan very well." ”
"Well, it's a bit rusty. Ji Xunchen replied
Can chopping wood practice the control of the true element? This cultivation method is unheard of.
Because he came to chat with him for the first time, and he was also a little tired, Zhong Xingyue put down the axe in his hand, and wiped the sweat on his face with the handkerchief around his neck.
"Sit down. ”
The place to chop firewood is on the south side of the yard, there is a stout jujube tree growing here, the branches and leaves of the jujube tree are luxuriant, and there are many long small and delicate green jujubes hanging on it, cutting firewood under the jujube tree, the branches and leaves cover part of the sun, and there is less heat, it is a very good place.
The place where Zhong Xingyue pointed out to Ji Xunchen was not a table or chair, but a boxy piece of wood, which was ground flat and could sit on it.
Ji Xunchen did not hesitate, sat down on the wood, Zhong Xingyue saw that he was no longer indifferent, so he sat next to him with a smile.
"You are at a young age, and your cultivation has already reached the early stage of the Transformation Yuan Realm, you should have very good qualifications, why are you so unfamiliar with the control of the True Yuan like a person who has just started to cultivate?" he directly asked his doubts
"Because I haven't received systematic cultivation, I don't have a master, I don't have exercises, I secretly learned them while others were practicing. ”
I still remember when I was a child, the Zhong family brothers invited a very good gentleman in the county town to teach the exercises, she was a woman, and she was a waste recognized by the family, so she was naturally not qualified to practice with her, but she liked to practice, so she hid behind a tree or in the grass every time, and quietly followed the teacher's teachings to practice, and then the Zhong family brothers went to Fucheng, and she never saw others practice again.
