Chapter 780: The Other Side of the Lu Axe
The East Compound, simple, primitive, happy.
Looking at this warm picture, Zhou Sen felt a little distracted.
If it weren't for the chaos in the five star fields, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't let go of the third princess all the time, he might choose to die here, he liked this simple atmosphere, even if this atmosphere was more of a false appearance.
The celebration banquet did not end until the early hours of the morning, and the workers were drunk one by one, and each of them helped them into the room to sleep, leaving Sister-in-law Peng and Sister-in-law Sun and a few miscellaneous women to clean up the mess.
Lu Axe is still muffled to chop wood.
"Axe, why don't you rest?" Zhou Sen, who was sitting on the edge of the well, saw that Lu's axe was a little strange. shouted.
"Leave it to me." Lu Axe replied.
"......" Zhou Sen was suddenly dumbfounded, Lu Axe had never done this to him.
"Xiao Zhou, let him be quiet, hey...... Poor ......" Sister-in-law Peng, who was cleaning up the cauldron, shook her head and sighed.
"Something?" Zhou Sen immediately noticed.
"The subject of the reckless axe is dead." Sister-in-law Sun walked to Zhou Sen's side and said softly in her ear.
Zhou Sen's heart sank, he didn't have to guess to know that the girl must have died at the hands of the mob. Zhou Sen didn't go over to comfort Lu Axe, he also found an ax and accompanied Lu Axe to chop wood.
In this weather, in addition to chopping wood with an axe, there are no flies to vent.
Neither man spoke, silently chopping firewood.
Time passed little by little, the East Compound had been cleaned up, and even Sister-in-law Peng and Sister-in-law went to sleep after saying hello, while Zhou Sen and Lu Axe were still desperately chopping dry firewood, and both of them took off their clothes, revealing a strong muscle.
Finally, Lu Axe spoke.
"Zhou Sen, why do you have so many injuries on your body?" Lu Axe looked at the crisscrossed scars on Zhou Sen's body and asked in surprise.
"This is bitten by a dog, this is beaten by others, this is caught by a fierce beast, this one, it was scraped from a fall from ......the mountain," Zhou Sen was a little speechless, because, after the dragon scale armor disappeared, he suffered more and more skin injuries.
Lu Axe looked at the scars on Zhou Sen's body blankly and made no sound.
"In a person's life, except for death, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome." Zhou Sen looked at Lu Axe lightly.
"Hmm." Lu Axe answered, turned around and walked to the kitchen, and took out a jar of wine. "This is from Chef Peng's collection."
"Chef Peng's collection of ...... Then you ......"
"If you drink it, you drink it, is it possible that he dares to ask me to pay for it!" Lu Axe's eyes were horizontal, and the urn sounded and the urn aired.
ββ¦β¦ Yes, yes, drink it. Zhou Sen smiled dumbly.
"Come, let's compete to see who chops wood faster and wins the drink."
"Good!"
The two of them didn't say a word, and threw off their arms and went crazy.
"Stop!" Lu Axe glanced at the firewood on Zhou Sen's chest and said, "I won, but I will allow you to drink with me." β
"Good!"
The two of them drank wildly, chopping wood when they were tired, splitting wood when they were tired and drinking when they were tired, and in the weather of more than ten degrees below zero, the two big men were naked in the yard to vent the pressure in their hearts.
Zhou Sen was drunk.
Lu Axe is also drunk.
Neither of them knew how to climb into their beds, and when they got up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
No one bothered Zhou Sen and Lu Axe, obviously, someone knew that he was drinking late at night, and when the two of them got up, thousands of people in the Shen family were busy. Some people repaired the damaged courtyard walls and some infrastructure of the Shen family, and carried some of the grain used as the city wall back to the granary.
The vast majority of people are helping people in Niejiaqiao Town to repair damaged houses or bury the bodies of those affected.
The benevolence of the Shen family has won unanimous praise from the residents of Niejiaqiao.
Two days later, that is, the day before the Chinese New Year, Niejiaqiao returned to its former prosperity, and commercial activities gradually became more frequent.
Unlike the shops, the East Compound has become idle, and most of the time the East Compound is idle except for the occasional person from the shop to replenish the stock.
The workers have all gone home for the New Year, and even the two husbands and wives, Chef Peng and Chef Lei, have gone home for the New Year.
The East Compound became more and more deserted.
In the East Compound, in addition to the gatekeeper on duty, there were three bachelors left: Zhou Sen, Lu Axe and Jia Deaf. The meal was originally sent by the West Courtyard, but was rejected by Lu Axe.
Lu Axe has been working in the Shen family since he was a child, and he has been mixing in the kitchen for seven or eight years, and his skills are not bad.
Finally, in the desertion, the East Compound ushered in Chinese New Year's Eve.
Lu Axe lit a fire in the kitchen, and hung a bunch of dried chili peppers at the door, indicating that the coming year would be prosperous.
After the three of them had dinner, they gathered around the fire to drink, Jia Deaf was too old to drink, and after a few drinks, he went back to his room to sleep.
The two big men were relatively speechless, drinking stuffy wine, each thinking about their thoughts.
Zhou Sen...... Wait...... The lord and the lady will come over. Lu Axe drank and said suddenly. At this time, Lu Axe was already a little drunk and hazy.
"What for?" Zhou Sen was stunned.
"Give out red envelopes."
"Oh."
Zhou Sen immediately understood that usually, in some large households, a red envelope would be sent to the person on duty in the early morning to please the lottery.
The two sat by the fire in a daze, waiting for the lord and lady to come over and give out red envelopes, chatting with each other.
"Zhou Sen, will you stay in the Shen family?"
"No, it won't."
"I ...... I...... Know...... You're not going to stay here...... What's the point...... You are...... You're a dragon...... A dragon ......" Lu Axe poured a sip of wine and stammered.
"Dragon ......"
Zhou Sen shook his head and smiled bitterly, if he was a dragon, and he was also a dragon trapped in a stinky ditch, he not only lost his superpowers now, but also had no way to obtain the power of faith, because, his golden god was destroyed, and the gold god in the space ring could not be taken out, and he wanted to refine the god again, but he lost the ability to refine the weapon, if he did not lose his strength, why would he be reduced to following Lu Axe to learn how to chop flies.
"Zhou ...... Zhou Sen...... You're amazing...... I admire you...... I really admire you......"
"Axe, do you have any dreams?" Zhou Sen didn't want to put the topic on himself, so he asked.
"Yes...... There was ......"
"What it is, tell me about it."
"Marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to a ...... Having a lot of children......"
"This doesn't count, is there anything else?"
"This ...... This one...... When I was very young...... Think about it...... I want to be a general, the kind of general who rides a tall horse......" Lu Axe suddenly picked up the iron axe under his feet and pulled up a beautiful axe flower in the air.
"Well, this is a dream, so have you ever thought about becoming a general?"
"Someone said...... Say...... Being a general is more than just strength...... If you still want culture, what is it called a strategy...... What's going on? β
"Strategize and win a thousand miles. Refers to the art of war. β
"Yes, yes, that is, it is to make a strategic plan and win a thousand miles...... I don't even know how to read...... I don't know what the art of war is...... By the way, you commanded us to fight the victims...... Is it the art of war? β
"Yes."
Zhou Sen...... You're so good...... Amazing......"
"I can teach you literacy, and I can teach you the art of war."
"Really, that...... That's great...... I'm going to be a general...... When that kind ...... Slaughtered nine million generals...... Checkmate...... Ha ha...... When you become a general, are you still afraid that there will be no women...... Whew......"
Lu Axe actually tilted his head and fell asleep leaning back in his chair.
ββ¦β¦β
Zhou Sen looked at the snoring Lu axe, and was speechless for a moment.
Just then, a burst of firecrackers rang out outside.
Zhou Sen stared blankly at the burning fire, and there was a trace of grim coldness on his face.
It has been a few days since he came to the Shen family, but his path of cultivating the gods has not made the slightest progress.
When will I have the power to return to the Five Star Fields?!
Inexplicably, Zhou Sen thought of the "Invincible Cheats" to cultivate the mystery. At present, there is nothing wrong with Zhou Sen, who has cultivated the "Invincible Cheats" cultivation mystery, but the two superpowers that are like nothing are still soft and have not increased in the slightest, but Zhou Sen feels that the flexibility of his body has increased a lot.
According to the "Invincible Cheats", the realm of "state" in the "majestic realm" has been reached, and next, it is necessary to start cultivating the second stage of "quiet", the cultivation method of silence seems very simple, mainly meditation, feeling the changes in the body with your heart, so that the human body is in a state of outer tranquility and inner peng.
At present, Zhou Sen does not have any experience in cultivating gods, and even so, he does not know how long it takes to cultivate the first realm, the "Majestic Realm", and the concept of "state" is extremely vague, he can only grope in the dark alone, and make judgments based on the feelings of his body.
According to Shen Huimin, "Invincible Cheats" has seven realms, which are divided into "Majestic Realm", "Bright Eye Realm", "Wisdom Realm", "Mountains and Rivers Realm", "Exploration Realm", "Newborn Realm" and "Hongmeng Realm", and among them, it is very difficult to rise to a stage, even if it is calculated at the cultivation speed of the "state" in the first "Majestic Realm", it will take seven years to cultivate to the "Hongmeng Realm".
Of course, Zhou Sen was not naΓ―ve enough to think that he could cultivate to the highest level of the "Invincible Cheats" in seven years, even if he was not a superpower, he also knew very well that any cultivation method should be easy first and then difficult.
If it really only takes seven years to be able to cultivate to the highest level, then the people who cultivate the God Realm will not only cultivate the first level.
There is no end in sight to returning to the five star fields.
Distraught, Zhou Sen gradually entered a state of "quiet", he didn't want to have too many negative emotions, he had to keep himself positive and optimistic. In this world, no one pities him, and no one will help him, he can only rely on himself.
One year is not ten years, ten years is not a hundred years!
The lifespan of a superpowered person far exceeds that of ordinary people, and Zhou Sen believes that as long as he cultivates diligently, his lifespan will definitely surpass that of ordinary people, and he has the hope of returning to the Five Star Domains.
Soon, Zhou Sen's brain abandoned the complicated worldly emotions and became extremely clear, he felt the quiet night with his mind, the cold of the air with his skin, and the slight winter breeze with his pores......
The fire gradually went out, and Zhou Sen was cultivating like a machine that didn't know how to get tired.
Zhou Sen didn't know that Shen Huimin didn't tell him that many people with superpowers in the early stage spent a lifetime and couldn't complete the cultivation of "state", while Zhou Sen only entered the second level of "quiet" cultivation in just over a month.
In fact, Shen Huimin didn't know how difficult it was to cultivate the first level of "Invincible Cheats".
Of course, Shen Huimin didn't know that Zhou Sennai was a genius of the Five Star Domains!
In the realm of cultivating gods, cultivating the "state" of the first "majestic realm" of the "Invincible Cheats" is only the preliminary work of building the foundation, and it is not necessary to reach the realm described in the "Invincible Cheats", because once the superpower person has cultivated the superpower in his body, the cultivation of the majestic realm of the "Invincible Cheats" will become a chicken rib.
Even if you have superpowers, it will take decades to reach the "Realm of Bright Eyes" in the "Invincible Cheats", and this has no meaning for superpowers, because the "Majestic Realm" and "Realm of Bright Eyes" of the Invincible Cheats do not have superpowers, and even the flight of the sword, which symbolizes the hall of superpowers, is not even possible, it is better to spend time on cultivating primary superpowers.
In addition to superpowers with extremely poor talents, superpowers who are generally slightly gifted can enter the hall of superpowers and reach primary superpowers in ten to thirty years. A superpower person with amazing qualifications like Pang Bing of the Jiupan Sect has reached the primary second-order superpower when he is only a teenager, which is extremely rare in the god cultivation world, you must know that in the Jiupan Sect, many superpowers who are more than 100 years old are still lingering in the primary first-order superpower.
However, in the Divine Cultivation Realm, the most important thing is to enter the primary level, because only with superpowers can it be possible to prolong life, and with a long life, you will have the opportunity to enter a higher realm.
This is a virtuous circle, after entering a higher realm, the lifespan may be extended, and after the life is extended, the chances of entering the next realm are infinitely increased.
In the world of cultivating gods, there are also some superpowers who can make up for their clumsiness diligently, such as the martial idiot Gong Shaochang of the Jiupan Sect, who is dull by nature, aware of hindsight, and has a strong temperament, and is not suitable for cultivating gods, however, because of his persistence, he has no distractions, and almost all his time is spent on cultivation, so his achievements are extremely high, and he has reached the intermediate level four superpowers. If nothing else, he would be able to enter the high level, enter the world of the cultivator powerhouse, and approach the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao is an extremely vague concept among superpowers, because ordinary superpowered people don't know about the realm after reaching the Heavenly Dao, just some rumors that cannot be traced.
For Zhou Sen, he didn't care what the highest level of cultivation looked like, he only cared about when he would recover his strength and find a way to return to the Five Star Domains.
Zhou Sen didn't know that he was on the list of bandits again on this strange planet.
Of course, no one told Zhou Sen what kind of list the bandit list was, and Zhou Sen didn't know that the bandit list existed......
The sky is gradually getting brighter, and the sunrise in winter makes people feel endless cold.
Zhou Sen didn't feel cold, he was already immersed in a wonderful world that he had never paid attention to, a world outside of human sight, this world, intoxicating, amazing.
The rats are whirling around the tank.
A fat fly dying from the cold winter plucks on the chimney to keep warm.
At the tail end of a piece of burning wood, countless panicked ants are looking for a way out of life.
This is a planet suitable for cultivation......
β¦β¦
"Zhou Sen."
"Hmm."
Zhou Sen opened his eyes suddenly, only to see Lu Axe looking out of the half-hidden door in a daze.
"Didn't the lord and the lady come?"
"Nope."
ββ¦β¦ But...... But...... There are red envelopes every year......" Lu Axe wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and looked disappointed.
"Perhaps, the old lady is too tired during this time, so forget it."
"Oh...... Today's first day of junior high school, Zhou Sen, what is your source? Lu Axe asked as he added dry wood to the fire.
"Nowhere to go." Zhou Sen shook his head.
"Why don't we go to the 'Bridge Tower'." Lu Axe's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Bridge?"
"It's the Xiao family...... Hey...... It was set on fire by the mob...... Look at my memory, I have forgotten it......" Lu Axe patted his head, took out the iron axe from under his feet, and slashed a few times in the air, as if he wanted to vent his dissatisfaction.
"You go often?" Zhou Sen couldn't help but be stunned, he really couldn't imagine that an honest person like Lu Axe would actually visit the Qinglou.
"No, no...... Or did I sneak there with Chef Peng two years ago...... It took me half a year's salary......" Lu Axe showed a complicated expression on his face, reluctant, but more of a look of nostalgia, obviously, that experience made him unforgettable.
"Is there anyone else going to the East Compound?" Zhou Sen asked curiously.
"Most of them have been...... However, it is too expensive, and some only go once in a few years. β
"Interesting?" Zhou Sen suddenly had a prank pleasure, he wanted to know what low-level characters like Lu Axe thought of Qinglou, of course, Zhou Sen also had a deeper meaning, he hoped that Lu Axe could come out of the shadows.
"There's a woman who likes me very much...... But...... But I don't have the money to see her. Lu Axe showed a trace of honest shyness on his face, and twisted and pinched.
"As long as they have money, they like it." Zhou Sen said disapprovingly.
"No, no...... It's true...... She said...... She also said...... She likes me for being simple...... Wish I had seen her often, she didn't want my money. Seeing that Zhou Sen didn't believe it, the green tendons on his neck burst out, and argued.
"Hehe, then why don't you look at her?" Zhou Sen said with a smile.
"I'm afraid...... I'm afraid that people will laugh at me......" Lu Axe said.
"And do you like her?"
"This ......" Lu Axe was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to answer, after all, he had only met the woman once, and he was far from liking.
"Don't say you like it, have you thought about her?"
"Think...... Ever thought about it...... Often think about ...... at night Sometimes, I would deliberately go to the bridge tower, hoping to meet her, but I never saw her......" Lu Axe looked frustrated.
"If she is willing to marry you, will you marry her?" Zhou Sen stared at Lu Axe.
"......" Lu Axe looked at Zhou Sen dumbfounded, obviously, he had never thought about this problem.
"Well, you don't have to answer, let's go see her."
"Now?"
"Yes, now."
"I don't have any money...... I still have to save money to marry my daughter-in-law......" Lu Axe blushed.
"I have."
"But ......"
"Let's go."
β¦β¦
Under Zhou Sen's pull, Lu Axe half pushed and half got up, judging from the expression on his face, there was a sense of hope.
Mr. Seven and another old man in the East Courtyard were dozing off around the charcoal stove, when Zhou Sen knocked on the door, the two of them were in good spirits, and at the same time opened their eyes, with a look of excitement, and then, they were disappointed, obviously, the two mistakenly thought that the old lady was sending a red envelope.
After Zhou Sen and Lu Axe went out, they immediately went straight to the bridge tower.
The morning of Nie Jiaqiao's first day of junior high school was quiet, and the street was covered with a layer of white snow, like a white carpet.
"Zhou Sen, the bridge tower has been burned, what are we going to do?"
"If it burns, there will be a place to go."
"Oh......"
Soon, the two arrived at the burned bridge.
As Zhou Sen expected, the bridge tower was manned, because the bridge tower was not completely burned down, and there were still many expensive furniture inside, and the Xiao family would definitely send someone to guard it.
The two asked the guards and knew that the women of the bridge tower were temporarily living in the "Moling Inn", and the two were immediately overjoyed, the Moling Inn was the property of the Shen family, so it was naturally much more convenient and bolder.
The two went straight to the Moling Inn again.
Moling Inn is not the best inn in Niejiaqiao, in Niejiaqiao, the best inn is the Zhao family's "Wanfu Inn", obviously, the Xiao family arranged the women to the Moling Inn to show favor to the Shen family.
Although it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Moling Inn was still open, the red lantern was hung high, and at the door, there were some traces of damage, obviously, this place had also been hit by the mob.
