Chapter 42: Temptation
Qiu Tong looked at Wang Lung rising into the air, the corners of his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't seem to be very optimistic about the results of this incense lighting.
In fact, Wang Lung has no bottom in his heart, he wants to do two things, after all, he has not tried, and now he has no time to think of other methods, so he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
When he jumped to the bottom of the black incense, and the top of his head was almost parallel to it, Wang Lung took a strong breath, stabilized his body, and fixed his eyes on the hat buckle in his right hand, as if he was slowly and urgently placing the hat buckle on the top of the black incense.
Due to the nervousness, the hat buckle was not placed properly, a little left deviation, Wang Lung was shocked, the right hand that was about to leave just wanted to straighten the hat buckle, suddenly remembered that the left hand was next to it, the right hand withdrew, the left hand handed the small fireball to the hat buckle, lit the hat buckle and straightened it at the same time.
As soon as his left hand touched the hat button, his body could no longer be maintained, Wang Lung watched the hat button come out with a faint fire, which seemed to be extinguished in the wind, and quickly held his breath, for fear that one would accidentally blow out the flame.
Until he landed, Wang Lung's eyes never left the black incense, and it was only a second or two between this vertical leap, Wang Lung felt like a thousand years, looking at the small flame at the top of the hat buckle, slowly burning, Wang Lung's heart was raised to his throat.
Not only Wang Lung is concerned, even Qiu Tong is also staring, his cultivation is much higher than Wang Long, and he looks more carefully, Wang Lung is under the black incense, even if his eyesight is outstanding, he can't see the whole picture clearly, but Qiu Tong is different, he always stands in place, how the hat buckle above the black incense burns, you can see it clearly at a glance.
Qiu Tong shook his head, similar to what he had guessed, this time Wang Lung was afraid that he would fail again.
After all, Wang Lung is limited in age and has experienced a few things, he uses cotton thread as a guide, makes a hat into a buckle and ignites black incense, which is no problem, but unfortunately Wang Lung ignored a little. That's the design of the buckle.
When Wang Lung lit the hat buckle, he was afraid that the black incense would not be lit from the top, so he lit the top of the hat buckle. But he forgot that if the top of the buckle was burned, the cotton thread would turn to ash and could not be forced, and even if the buckle was still burning, it would have lost its effect and would slide down the black incense.
As Qiu Tong guessed, at the beginning, the hat button was on fire, and Wang Lung was overjoyed. But in just a moment, the top of the hat buckle seemed to be pierced by the black incense, and most of the hat buckles slid through the black smoke and fell straight to the ground, Wang Lung was shocked, and looked sideways at the distant pupil, thinking that the other party was making trouble.
Qiu Tong had already expected Wang Lung to think like this, so he snorted coldly and ignored the other party, and Wang Lung was even more puzzled. When the buckle hits the ground, lean over and pick it up. When I looked at it, I instantly understood that I had made such a stupid mistake, and I blamed it on my head.
Now that the three chances have been used twice, the buckle is broken, and even if there is a new one, it may not be able to ignite. Time waits for no one, Wang Lung is in a hurry but has no way at all.
Wang Lung was angry that he had made such a childish mistake, and now even if he slapped himself, it would be useless, and he was in a lonely mood, and raised his eyes to the top of his head. He was about to admit defeat, when suddenly a faint light of fire entered his eyes, and there was a trace of green smoke rising from the top of the black incense.
Wang Lung thought he was dazzled, raised his right hand and looked at it again, just like what he saw just now, he couldn't see completely under the black incense, his body retreated, and after leaving a distance, Wang Lung found that the hat buckle was not completely useless, and at the same time as it fell, the fire at the top had ignited the black incense, but there was a bit of a problem.
Because the fire at the top of the hat buckle is too small, even if the black incense is lit, it is only one-third of the cross-section of the black incense, which is less than the size of a grain of rice.
As we all know, once the incense is lit, if the area is small, it is easy to extinguish, if you blow twice with your mouth, give a little wind, it will burn normally, although Wang Lung has not lit much incense, but this kind of common sense is still known, the heart is overjoyed, quickly run back to the lower end of the black incense, kick the right leg, and the body rises in the air.
Because the ignition was on Wang Lung's side, Qiu Tong couldn't see it with the naked eye, and the green smoke coming out of the black incense was thought to be caused by the residue of the hat buckle, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
Who knew that Wang Lung was actually sad and happy under the black incense, looking like crazy, which made Qiu Tong suspicious, only to see Wang Lung soaring into the air again, this time, there was no hat buckle in his hand, and there was no fireball in his left hand, which made him not suspicious.
Looking at Wang Long's upward trend, a faint trace of green smoke came out from the top of the black incense, and his eyes twisted his eyebrows, thinking, did he really let that little guy light it?
It is difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and the pupil directly released his divine sense, and at a glance, the faint firelight came into his eyes, and at this time, Wang Lung happened to put his head on the prohibition, and his eyes happened to fall on the faint firelight.
Because the top of the black incense was too close to the roof, Wang Lung couldn't blow it with his mouth, so he had to stretch out his hands and fan the wind quickly.
After landing on the ground, Wang Lung raised his eyes to look at the top of the black incense, at this time, the light smoke was filling, and the fire was fierce, and it would not be extinguished.
It took an hour, all the three opportunities were used up, and finally the black incense was lit, Wang Long's joy was overflowing, and he looked sideways at Qiu Tong, the meaning could not be more obvious.
Qiu Tong smiled and shook his head, this action made Wang Lung puzzled, thinking that I didn't foul or fail, could it be that time had passed, and quickly asked: "Uncle Hitomi, now that the incense has been lit, I ......"
Qiu Tong waved his hand and said: "Even if you succeed, but don't be too proud, just order a broken incense, you are really stupid enough to toss for so long and almost fail." ”
Wang Lung thought to himself that what you said was light, and I don't have the strength of a cultivator, it is not easy to light the incense at the specified time and times, although there are some lucky ingredients, but I finally completed the task.
Seeing that Wang Lung sneered at what he said, Qiu Tong sneered and said, "Don't think that what I said is too heavy, it's really something that you don't use your own brain, and you can do it in an instant, but it takes you an hour to live." ”
Wang Lung was puzzled and asked, "Uncle Tong, I don't have the strength of a cultivator and can't control the fire, do you have a better way?" ”
Qiu Tong snorted coldly and said, "Isn't it enough to gather fire with one hand and use the strength of the other hand to let the body stay in the air for a while longer?"
Wang Lung was puzzled and asked, "I understand this, but there is no borrowing point around the black incense, how can it be borrowed?"
"Stupid, say you're stupid. You're not happy yet. Qiu Tong said angrily: "Since the black incense can be suspended in the air, won't you use the black incense as a borrowing point." ”
Wang Lung was stunned, and after thinking about it, what the other party said made some sense, but the black incense was easy to break, if he accidentally broke the black incense. Isn't it asking for hardship, Wang Lung was puzzled, and asked: "The black incense is easy to break, I'm afraid it can't be forced." ”
"Idiot!" the pupil scolded, and continued, "There is a body of skin, but he is a guy who only knows how to use brute force. ”
After speaking, Qiu Tong no longer paid attention to Wang Lung, and Wang Lung was abused by the other party three times and twice, and he was no longer angry, but lowered his head and pondered. How to use the power of black incense.
Wang Lung lowered his head and pondered, Qiu Tong ignored it, and his divine sense released that he had reported the situation to Ao Qing, and Ao Qing was still struggling with the rumors he said, and he didn't notice Qiu Tong calling her for a while.
Ao Qing pondered about his personal feelings, whether he should make some changes in the face of Xiaotian in the future, but he really didn't know what Xiaotian liked about himself, whether it was his original self or his gentle self. This made Ao Qing distressed.
Suddenly, hearing a low voice from Hitomi, Ao Qing raised his head and asked, "Uncle Hitomi." What's wrong?"
Qiu Tong didn't answer immediately, but asked with concern: "Miss, you have nothing to do, right?"
Ao Qing showed a smile and said, "It's okay, I was thinking about something just now, and I was too involved." ”
Hitomi nodded and said, "That's good, miss." Wang Lung had already lit the black incense according to the regulations, but the method was stupid. ”
"Oh!" Ao Qing didn't pay attention to the situation outside, and didn't know how Wang Lung lit incense, so he continued: "Let's hear it." ”
According to his words, Qian Tong explained how Wang Lung thought hard about how to light incense and how to summon Han Yan. How to light incense, Tsai carefully told the other party everything, Ao Qing chuckled lightly after hearing this, shook his head and said: "That little guy has just been cultivating for a short time, and his knowledge and experience are limited, this time lighting incense is just a temporary addition to the topic, and it is not easy for him to complete it on time." ”
Qiu Tong smiled and said, "What Miss said is that the old slave told the little guy some keys, and he was thinking about it at this time. ”
Ao Qing nodded, and then remembered that now that the incense had been lit, Qiu Tong and Wang Lung should fight immediately, how could Wang Lung fall into deep thought, could it be that Qiu Tong had any problems to take the school Wang Long?
The black incense has been burned, everyone knows, but Wang Lung was tempted by the words of the pupil, and fell into contemplation, he was just thinking about how to light the incense in a simpler way with the help of the black incense at this time, but he didn't know that the black incense had been burning, and when he woke up, he was afraid that the black incense had burned a piece.
Originally, Wang Lung only had time for a stick of incense, as long as he survived a stick of incense, even if he succeeded, Qiu Tong's strength was there, and he didn't worry about Wang Lung's tricks, if a third of the incense was over, Wang Lung hadn't figured it out, and Qian Tong would also wake him up, and at that time, Qiu Tong would fight Wang Lung with the strength of the Great Perfection of the Foundation Building Period.
Even if Wang Lung is unwilling, there is nothing to say, who let him himself not grasp the opportunity and waste time at will.
As the saying goes, people become old and fine, the body of the pupil is blue, belongs to the dragon clan, and the life span is not known for many thousands of years, how rich its experience is, in a few words, Wang Lung will be trapped, and he can't extricate himself.
Ao Qing, as the chief examiner, did not stop what Qiu Tong did, but gloated and watched Wang Lung make a fool of herself, she originally intended to teach Wang Lung a lesson, and at this time, the drama increased, how could she not be happy.
Wang Lung only cared about contemplation, completely unaware of the trap set by Qiu Tong, in fact, Wang Lung himself drilled the tip of the horns, and now where he is there to think hard about a good strategy, first fight with Qiu Tong, after the fight, let a brother and two help put incense, according to Qiu Tong said, a try to know, now Wang Lung is still considering whether Hei Xiang can bear his weight, how to hold the incense to borrow strength.
Wang Lung's current situation is just like those Chinese medicine professors he met in Jinan, when Wang Lung first taught them Chinese medicine, those guys forgot to sleep and eat, and they didn't even care about Wang Lung's food, they just wanted to dig out what Wang Lung had learned for their own use.
Wang Lung was unlucky because of his lack of experience, he fell into the trap of Qiu Tong and didn't know it, the two brothers were not around, no one reminded him, Qiu Tong and Ao Qing were willing to see Wang Lung's jokes, and they would not wake up Wang Lung in advance.
It can't be said that there is no one, but there is one who is paying attention to Wang Lung, that is Han Yan, who was Wang Lung's younger brother, and was woken up by Wang Lung at the beginning and complained, and then returned to Wang Lung's body.
After going back, it is said that Han Yan should directly cultivate well, but he was afraid that Wang Lung would not grasp the essentials well, and he would take it out and bake his clothes, so he observed Wang Lung's movements first.
Seeing that Wang Lung had baked his clothes as he wished, Han Yan wanted to practice immediately, but after closing his eyes, he was always worried about whether Wang Lung could successfully light incense, and he couldn't settle down for a while.
Wang Lung lit the incense with twists and turns, Han Yan looked thrilling, its divine sense surrounded Wang Lung, and naturally saw the external situation clearly, after Wang Lung lit the black incense, the words of the pupil made Wang Lung fall into contemplation, and Han Yan was also puzzled.
Han Yan's child's temperament, after thinking for a while, he didn't know the essentials and stopped thinking, but found that Wang Lung was still pondering in place, looking at the black incense that was constantly burning outside, Han Yan suddenly realized that the old guy didn't follow his kindness, and he was afraid that he was deceiving his own boss.
Han Yan knew that Wang Long had a refining topic, a stick of incense was limited, and he could meet Ao Qing face to face through it, if the incense burned to one-third, the strength of the pupil would be increased by one layer, and the more he reached the bottom, the greater the pressure on Wang Long.
Spotting through the conspiracy of the pupils, Han Yan immediately woke up Wang Lung, and Wang Lung realized that he had been fooled again.
I had the intention to curse the pupils, but when I thought about the other party's cultivation, I had to swallow the words when they came to my mouth.
Seeing that Wang Lung woke up by himself, Qiu Tong and Ao Qing were puzzled, the trap had been solved, and the two were no longer embarrassed for each other, so Qiu Tong was ready to fight Wang Lung according to the original agreement. (To be continued......)
