Chapter 22: Luck is a bit back

"Peace, the situation on the front line, is even more dangerous than the rumors."

"Do you think it will directly affect our sweeping miscellaneous disciples?"

Wang Cripple looked uneasy and asked Zhao Ping'an.

He was mainly worried about the last words Deng Zhi said before leaving, that the Medicine Garden had recently begun to forcibly arrange for miscellaneous disciples to participate in the task of transporting medicines.

"Probably not."

"Senior Brother Wang, don't worry."

Zhao Ping'an saw through his mind at a glance, smiled slightly, and comforted.

Under normal circumstances, both of them are sweeping and miscellaneous disciples in the medicine garden, and their main responsibility is to clean the corresponding area in the medicine garden every day, even if they want to go to the forefront of danger, it should not be their turn.

"I hope so."

"Eh, I don't know what happened to the big cow."

Wang Cripple was a little stunned, before Zhao Ping'an came to the medicine garden, Da Niu was the closest person to him, but now half a year has passed, but the other party has no news at all.

Seeing the appearance of Wang Cripple, Zhao Ping'an didn't say anything and continued to clean up the remaining area.

Although the work of the sweeping and miscellaneous disciples is a bit boring, Zhao Ping'an has long been used to it.

……

The days passed, and just when Zhao Ping'an thought that he and Wang Cripple should not be affected too much by the sect dispute, they still couldn't avoid it after all.

On this day, Zhao Ping'an and Wang Cripple had just finished cleaning the corresponding area, and before the two of them could put down their brooms, a miscellaneous disciple suddenly arrived and said indifferently: "Pass on Senior Brother Sun's password, sweep the miscellaneous disciples, and go to the square to gather for a meeting." ”

"Senior Brother Lin, what happened, can you reveal a thing or two?" Wang Cripple recognized the person, and the other party was a close confidant under Sun Fatzi, named Lin Jie.

The lame man deliberately stepped forward to get close, wanting to hear some information from the other party's mouth.

"Cripple Wang, don't ask more, you'll know when you go." Who knew that Lin Jie's attitude was indifferent, and he turned around and left directly.

"It's such a big shelf, you can't even ask." The lame king shook his head, but he was helpless.

"Senior Brother Wang, in the past, Sun Fatzi could have convened a meeting of the miscellaneous disciples?" Zhao Ping'an realized that something was wrong and asked casually.

"Very little."

"And convening the miscellaneous disciples to gather in the square for a meeting, it is obvious that something big has happened."

"I have a sense of foreboding."

"Peace, you and I should be more careful."

The lame king's face was solemn and he said in a deep voice.

The two did not delay much, and soon came to the square in the medicine garden.

As soon as he arrived, Zhao Ping'an noticed that in addition to him and Zhao Ping'an, there were already many miscellaneous disciples gathered in the square, including men and women, densely packed, and it seemed that there were eighty or ninety people.

There are quite a few miscellaneous disciples in the medicine garden, all of them add up to hundreds of people, but in the past six months, as some miscellaneous disciples have participated in the transportation of medicines, there have been casualties, and now there are less than 100 people left.

"You're all here."

Sun Fatzi put his hands behind his back, glanced at the audience, and said with a smile: "The main reason for summoning you here this time is to announce one thing. ”

"In recent days, everyone has also known that there has been a conflict between the sect and the frost moon sect, and there have been a lot of casualties on the side of the official disciples, and the healing herbs and pills in our medicine garden are items that the disciples of the frontier sect urgently need."

Speaking of this, Sun Fatzi's voice raised by three points, and continued: "In order to be able to help the sect reduce casualties, the caretaker decided to increase the supply of cutting-edge medicines, so it is necessary to allocate more manpower to be responsible for transporting medicines. ”

As soon as his words fell, the miscellaneous disciples around him looked at each other, and many of them showed a trace of astonishment and panic.

"Senior Brother Sun, what do you mean by that?"

"Do we have to go to the front line to transport medicines? I heard that it was very dangerous over there, and that many people were killed or injured by the brothers who went to participate in the mission of transporting medicines. ”

At this time, a miscellaneous disciple was a little dissatisfied and shouted directly.

"That is, we don't want to participate in the task of transporting medicines, if anyone is concerned about the rewarded spirit stones, they will sign up for it themselves."

As his words fell, someone soon chimed in.

For a while, the square became a little noisy, and many miscellaneous disciples expressed their opinions and were unwilling to participate in this troubled water.

Just kidding, helping the sect transport medicines to the forefront can get rich rewards, but that also requires fighting with your life.

If you are not careful, your life will be gone, and no matter how many spirit stones you want, there is no point.

"Damn, this fat man called us, and there was really nothing good." The lame king secretly cursed and scolded.

Zhao Ping'an was silent, he wanted to see what kind of tricks this fat man had in his life.

"Don't worry, I don't want to force you to participate in the task of transporting medicines, but now that the sect is in difficulty, we miscellaneous disciples must also come forward, right?"

Sun Fatzi glanced at it, and there was a glint in his eyes.

He cleared his throat and continued, "After my discussion with the Guard, I think that it is very fair to every senior brother and sister to use the form of drawing lots to decide the candidates for each miscellaneous disciple who will transport medicines. ”

"Of course, the miscellaneous disciples who have been selected as long as they participate in a mission to transport medicines, they will be able to obtain a generous reward of spirit stones, and they do not need to participate in the next round of lottery."

After speaking, Sun Fatzi didn't pay attention to everyone's reactions at all, and motioned to his confidant Lin Jie to take out the lottery holder.

Under the gaze of everyone, as the holder rotates, a wooden skewer with a name written on it is shaken out every time.

"Jiang Sheng."

"Yu Wei."

"Hu Xuelian."

……

Every miscellaneous disciple who was read by Sun Fatzi's name showed a desperate expression.

After a while, Sun Fatzi drew out the names of six people, and the lottery was not over at this time.

"God and Buddha bless, don't read my name, I don't want to die young yet."

The lame king folded his hands and read the words.

He was a little nervous and uneasy, for fear that Sun Fatzi would read his name.

"Senior Brother Wang, don't be nervous. There are so many miscellaneous disciples here, according to the probability, even if you are a little unlucky, you and I will not be able to pronounce your and my names. ”

Zhao Ping'an smiled slightly and comforted Wang Cripple.

"Zhao Ping'an."

In the next second, the smile on Zhao Ping'an's face froze, and the slap in the face came a little fast!

"Senior Brother Zhao......"

Wang was taken aback and cast a sympathetic look at Zhao Ping'an.

"The king is lame."

Before the cripple Wang could finish speaking, another voice came, which made him almost roll his eyes and faint and fall to the ground.

Fortunately, Zhao Ping'an's eyes were quick and he supported Wang Cripple.

"Senior Brother Zhao, have you ever opened your mouth? said that he couldn't pronounce our names, but he immediately pronounced our names. ”

The lame king wanted to cry without tears, and after a long time, he begged for the gods and Buddhas in vain.

"Our luck is really a bit back."

The corners of Zhao Ping'an's mouth twitched, and he was also quite helpless.

When the crowd dispersed, there were only eight unlucky people left in the square, including Zhao Ping'an and Wang Cripple.

"Senior Brother Sun, Zhao Ping'an and I are sweeping miscellaneous disciples, if we participate in the task of transporting medicines, then who will be the turn to clean the medicine garden?"

"Senior Brother Sun, if you really can't do it, you can tell others to go."

Holding on to a glimmer of hope, the lame man cheekily stepped forward and pleaded with Sun Fatzi.

In front of Sun Fatzi, he became respectful, but not long ago, he scolded the former.

"Cripple Wang, don't talk nonsense with me, this is the result of the lottery, don't say that you are a sweeping and miscellaneous disciple, even if you are the son of the caretaker, you have to participate in this task of transporting medicines if you are drawn to the name."

"Besides, it's just a mission for you to deliver medicines, and it won't take a few days to wait until you come back to clean the medicine garden."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, this is a rare opportunity, if the medicine is successfully delivered to the front, the reward obtained in one trip will be on top of the spirit stones distributed by your sweeping and miscellaneous disciples for several months."

After speaking, Sun Fatzi didn't continue to pay attention to Wang Cripple, and directly led people away.

"It's over."

Wang is lame and has nothing to love.

"Senior Brother Wang, don't be frustrated, maybe the mission we participated in to transport medicines may not encounter too many dangers." Zhao Ping'an was quite optimistic, and opened his mouth to comfort.

"Peace, I beg you to stop talking."

"I'm really afraid that as soon as you open your mouth, you will send me away directly."

The cripple king's face was full of frustration and begged.

Zhao Ping'an smiled, not knowing how to answer.

He also didn't expect that the two of them would be so coincidental, in front of so many people, they were directly drawn by Sun Fatzi.

If it weren't for the public in plain sight, Zhao Ping'an would even have reason to guess whether it was deliberately arranged by Sun Fatzi.

Although Zhao Ping'an didn't want to take risks, this was the result of a public lottery, and unless he left the medicine garden, he couldn't refuse this arrangement at all.
