Chapter 42: Pieces of Paper
After three days like this, all the methods that could be considered have been considered, Zhang Feiyang also fulfilled his promise to Sister Qiao, and helped refine the healing pill, but there was still no progress in how to deal with Song Cuifu.
Seeing that the time was getting closer and closer to the martial arts competition, he was also a little overwhelmed.
After staying up for three days and three nights without closing his eyes, when Zhang Feiyang came back from Sister Qiao, he was exhausted, and as soon as he entered the hut, he slammed and fell on the bed, thinking about nothing anymore, and fell asleep deeply.
When I woke up again, it was already afternoon.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door outside.
Zhang Feiyang looked at the door and saw that it was Sister Qiao who came over with a harmless smile.
She came to send Zhang Feiyang back to the Alchemy Department.
Zhang Feiyang didn't dare to go back, so he naturally shook his head, and said that he would stay here for a while on the grounds that he wanted to continue to stay here for a while.
Sister Qiao had expected it.
She waved her hand indifferently, agreed, and took Zhang Feiyang to the warehouse of the laundry department, and said, "Then please wash the clothes here." During the previous time, our sisters were all helping you with alchemy, and the clothes had accumulated so much unconsciously. Now there are so many clothes every day, they can't keep busy. ”
I saw that more than a dozen buckets of clothes were piled up in the warehouse, occupying two-thirds of the warehouse space, and if I didn't clean up some of them, I would not be able to stuff them.
Zhang Feiyang felt bitter in his heart, a hundred reluctant, but he didn't dare to show it, pretending that his clothes didn't matter, nodding with a smile, and agreeing.
Seeing that Zhang Feiyang really didn't refuse, Sister Qiao was even more vigilant about him, how dare she waste time if she had time to continue chatting with him here, patted Zhang Feiyang on the shoulder, and casually explained a few words, after these clothes are cleaned, they should be placed there and handed them over, and then, they anxiously ran back to their huts, closed the door, and began to cultivate.
She already regarded Zhang Feiyang as an opponent of the same level as herself, but she didn't dare to underestimate the enemy.
Zhang Feiyang didn't know Sister Qiao's thoughts, seeing that she was the same as before, she specially handed over the dirty work and tiring work to herself, and she dared not speak out, as if she had just returned to the time when she had just entered the Fire Fox Sect, she could only shake her head, sighed, and carried two half-person-high wooden barrels to the river to wash her clothes.
At this time, it was the time when the sisters in the laundry department washed their clothes together, and when Zhang Feiyang came to the river, he was sought after by countless sisters, and they kept coming up to talk to Zhang Feiyang, and the excuses were naturally some words that cared about him and liked him, but I don't know if Sister Qiao had instructed them in advance, as long as they heard Zhang Feiyang ask for help to share the work, their reactions were very consistent.
"Senior Brother Zhang. I'm sorry. Look at us. We still have a lot of clothes in our hands that we don't have time to wash. I can't help you. ”
Zhang Feiyang didn't believe it.
Because, it is clear that many female disciples only have one or two pieces of clothes in their hands, and some female disciples stay and do not leave, obviously to see him from a distance, or to come over more to talk to him, talk to him, so that they want other sisters to show off and satisfy their vanity.
He couldn't blame anything, let alone show even the slightest hint of dissatisfaction.
Who made this the laundry department?
He has been with these female disciples for so long, he knows very well what the consequences will be if he provokes them, as the so-called Hades is easy to provoke, and the little ghosts are difficult, as long as they really provoke themselves, then when they change their ways to put on their own shoes, the idea of staying in the laundry department and wanting to take the opportunity to think of a strategy to deal with Song Cuifu will definitely not be realized.
Zhang Feiyang's choice is to deal with the three axes of patience and cooperation, as well as the harmless smile of humans and animals.
Every day, he tried his best to show a very enthusiastic appearance, and when he was fascinated by these female disciples and indulged in them, he hurried up the time, while washing the clothes in stock, and trying to think about how to deal with Song Cuifu.
Unfortunately, this method has continued for many days without the slightest progress.
During this period, Zhou Zhou Xian also came once.
He heard that Zhang Feiyang had successfully completed the task and came back to say hello to Zhang Feiyang, but when he heard that Zhang Feiyang was not in the Alchemy Department, he searched for it one department after another.
finally returned to the laundry department, and when he saw that Zhang Feiyang was really back, he was surprised and talked a lot to Zhang Feiyang.
Zhang Feiyang gradually became depressed because of the lack of progress in his strategy to deal with Song Cuifu, and finally recovered a little.
By the time Zhou Zhou Xian went back, he had already regained his fighting spirit, put all his mind on business, and began to stop caring with those senior sisters and junior sisters.
Because, time is running out, and if there is no progress like this, it will really be over.
Fortunately, by this time, the freshness of those senior sisters and junior sisters to the idol Zhang Feiyang has also passed.
Seeing that they were discussing the next martial arts competition every day and night, and how handsome and powerful the senior brothers who participated in the competition were, their eyes were shining and their expressions were flying, and Zhang Feiyang breathed a sigh of relief, so that he could finally be quiet and concentrate on dealing with Song Cuifu's big things.
On this day, since I got up in the morning, the situation has not been very good.
In order to speed up the washing of all the clothes in stock, Zhang Feiyang had already changed the time to start washing clothes in the morning, staying by the river for a whole day, and did not return until the sun set in the evening.
This way, you can get rid of more clothes every day.
But just after a morning, there was still no progress, Zhang Feiyang thought about it, only to feel that his heart was a mess, and he was about to collapse.
At this moment, while washing a piece of clothing with a missing button, he found a broken piece of paper in his arms.
This piece of paper was torn from some book, and there are only two words - post-stage.
Zhang Feiyang had doubts in his heart, and he looked at the two words on the piece of paper again and again, but he didn't understand what it meant, but when he wanted to throw away the piece of paper, he suddenly thought of "Qi Refining Technique".
Because, he was surprised to find that the font and size of these two words were exactly the same as the text on the "Qi Refining Technique".
"Could it be that this is a fragment of one of the pages of the Qi Refining Technique?"
Zhang Feiyang's brain was running rapidly, searching for the source of these two words.
After a moment, he was stunned for a moment, a trace of doubt rose on his face, and he put the piece of paper a little closer, staring at the two words and carefully identifying them without blinking: "Strange." That's not right. There are only more than 2,000 words on "Qi Refining Formula". I've memorized more than 2,000 words word for word. There are no late two words on it. ”
As soon as he finished saying this, suddenly, Zhang Feiyang trembled, as if he had been struck by lightning, his heart moved, he laughed excitedly, his eyes were shining, and his hands continued to grope in this robe, as if he was looking for treasure, and his movements were crazy, as if he had returned to the time when he was still a homeless man.
After three breaths, sure enough, there was a gain.
Seeing that in the depths of the sleeves, there was a small hole in one area, and the hole was also mixed with this piece of shredded paper with the same provenance, but the size was different, and the words on it were also different, Zhang Feiyang excitedly continued to grope for this dress.
Unfortunately, no matter how many times I turned over and over the clothes, I didn't get anything.
Zhang Feiyang was even more motivated, put away the two pieces of paper, and began to grope for the rest of the clothes in the same batch, starting a new round of rummaging.
Seeing that one piece of clothing was empty, he didn't care about resting, and immediately set his sights on the next piece of clothing.
In this way, after looking for one piece, I continued to look for another piece if I didn't find it, and so on, and so on, and so on, and the cycle went on dozens of times, and by the evening, the sun had sunk in the west, and the beautiful sunset sprinkled down, stretching Zhang Feiyang's shadow very long.
Zhang Feiyang didn't have the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery, picked up a wooden barrel in one hand, and returned to the warehouse in a hurry, and then continued to start a new round of search.
In order to continue to get more shredded paper, this night, Zhang Feiyang couldn't even take care of eating, and he was even more unwilling to rest, until he found the dawn from dusk.
When he came out again, he saw that the sun had risen again in the middle of the sky, and at noon, the scorching sun sprinkled down, dispelling most of the chill in his body, Zhang Feiyang sighed, went to Sister Qiao's to get breakfast, and after a simple meal, he went back to his cabin to rest.
Seeing his tired appearance, Sister Qiao thought that the laundry task assigned to him was too heavy, but she didn't say anything about him and allowed him to rest for a day.
Zhang Feiyang was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to rest, and when he returned to the house, he couldn't wait to take out two pieces of shredded paper, put them on the bed, and stared carefully.
The piece of paper on the left, which he had already seen, had only two words on it, "post-production".
Zhang Feiyang's main eyes fell on the shredded piece of paper on the right, his brain was running rapidly, analyzing the meaning of the above four words: "What is written on this piece of paper is invulnerability." That one is written in the late period. The words on these two pieces of paper are obviously from the same handwriting as the "Qi Refining Formula", but they have not appeared in the "Qi Refining Formula". ”
Zhang Feiyang smiled slightly and nodded affirmatively.
This means that they should be the exercises practiced by monks in the late stage of the Qi refining period. In other words, as long as the cultivation successfully broke through the bottleneck and reached the late stage from the early stage of the Qi refining period, then the cultivator himself could achieve the effect of being invulnerable. You can't go wrong. ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered the scene when Song Cuifu did not suffer the slightest damage to her eyes when she came into contact with the Heart Destroying Dagger, and his heart was more and more affirmative and more and more excited.
"Yes. It must be so. Otherwise, it would not be possible to explain Song Cuifu's situation at that time. The cultivation of the inner disciples is all in the late stage of the Qi refining period. That's how it should be. It's just that now only the effect after the cultivation in the late stage of the Qi refining period can be achieved, but there is no way to achieve such an exercise through how to cultivate the aura. How can we fill this void?
Zhang Feiyang shook his head, feeling that this method is not reliable, the danger is too great, the probability of failure is far greater than success, and he must not take the risk of this kind of success rate infinitely close to zero.
But rejecting this proposal also means that it will be difficult to fill this big hole.
At this time, Zhang Feiyang felt as if he was standing by a river, with a turbulent torrent in front of him, and farther away was the opposite bank of the road to higher immortal cultivation.
It's a pity that Song Cuifu, a strong enemy from the other side, has already stood in the center of the bridge to intercept it.
If you force a breakthrough, there is only a dead end.
If you choose to make compromises, it is equivalent to taking the initiative to give your neck to Song Cuifu. She had a collar and chain in her hand.
The more Zhang Feiyang thought about it, the more difficult he felt, and a feeling of exhaustion became stronger and stronger.
As time went by and his sleepiness increased, he gradually had the idea of giving up.
But if you just embark on the road of cultivating immortals, and you give up on yourself, if you encounter more difficult things in the future, wouldn't it be even more impossible to become an immortal?
Thinking of this, the more Zhang Feiyang thought about it, the more angry he became, he looked up at Song Cuifu who was sneering at him on the bridge, snorted, glanced at the turbulent water, walked to a more steep bank, stared at the opposite bank with his eyes, and slowly stepped into the water, while touching the stones in the rapids, while carefully crossing the river.
He planned to cross the river by feeling the stones, always holding hope firmly in his own hands, and walking out of his own path of cultivating immortals.
Since we already know what effect the cultivation exercises in the late stage of the Qi refining period can achieve, isn't it just that the cultivation exercises in the middle are missing now, so we can create them ourselves.
Anyway, any cultivation method cannot be naturally conceived by heaven and earth at the earliest, and going back to the roots, there will always be the first person to create the exercises.
Why can't we do what our ancestors could do?
Thinking of this, Zhang Feiyang clenched his fists, swept away any sleepiness and exhaustion, walked back and forth in the house, and began to think about what methods should be used to make himself as invulnerable as Song Cuifu.
He believed that as long as he did it, the stagnant cultivation would definitely be able to break through the bottleneck and reach the late stage of the Qi refining period.
With the cultivation in the late stage of the Qi Refining Period, if he ran into Song Cuifu again, he would not be so powerless. At least, it can be a fight.
