Chapter Eighty-Eight: Rumors

With previous experience, Liu Chu broke through to the seventh layer in a row, the seventh layer is a row of knife formations, surrounded from all sides, only by jumping up can you dodge, but when jumping up, you must find the right foothold, otherwise jumping out of the range of steps is equivalent to failure.

Liu Chu kicked hard, jumped into the air three meters high, three meters, is the most suitable jump height that Liu Chu researched, when it fell, the knife array just dispersed, and at the same time it could also fall within the range of steps, and it could also step up and down the next step in one step.

If the speed of the stride is not fast enough, the second round of knife formations will attack, so the difficulty of this seventh step is still quite large.

Call.

Liu Chu stood on the eighth floor of the steps, let out a long breath, and finally went up another step.

"Wow! it's the eighth staircase!"

There were some onlookers who were exclaiming, and some of the academy disciples were disdainful, some of them were jealous, and some of them were because they had gone to a higher level.

"Huh?"

Liu Chu was startled, a piece of smoke and sand suddenly appeared in front of him, Liu Chu subconsciously bent down to dodge, and when he bent over, a wooden fist suddenly popped out from the side of the steps.

Liu Chu turned his head to look, and with a bang, his fist smashed on Liu Chu's left eye, and the person was also smashed and flew out.

After Liu Chu landed, he covered his left eye with a wry smile on his face, and failed again.

"Scattered, failed, the next layer is more difficult than the first, I don't know how many steps he can break through. The onlookers discussed and left the scene.

The mechanism on this layer actually seems very simple, but don't forget, Liu Chu has already broken through seven layers in a row in front of him, and the physical consumption is also amazing. It's like a camel that has reached its upper limit, and then a straw can crush it to death.

"Hey, you're looking very unique. After October and the others came back, they saw Liu Chu's dark eyes, and they were very curious about the situation.

"Phew! This hundred-step ladder is too time-consuming, and it can be difficult to climb up. Even if I break through the first level in a day, it will take me a hundred days, not to mention that it is impossible to break through the first level in a day. ”

Liu Chu sat in the courtyard and spit out the melon seed shell in his mouth, looking a little shocked.

"This hundred-step ladder is already very difficult, I inquired, since the establishment of the academy for sixteen years, no one has ever climbed up, the most powerful one, that is, climbed the seventy-second step, and the day he climbed the stairs, he just finished graduating. October said.

Graduated......

Liu Chu was speechless, that is to say, it may have taken three full years for that person to break through to the seventy-second floor.

"I have to think of a way, honestly climb up layer by layer, I have to climb to the Year of the Monkey?"

Liu Chu got up, stuffed the melon seeds into October's hand, and then went back to the room.

"It can't be that you're going to kill yourself if you're hit too hard, right?" Wei Suo said with a swish.

"Fuck off!" October kicked him.

After Liu Chu returned to the room, he lay on the bed for a long time, and formed a peculiar idea in his mind, if it could be done, then he should have a great chance of being accepted as a disciple by Tong Zhenghai.

Since then, for fifteen days, Liu Chu seems to have been out of this world, except for daily eating and sleeping, he has basically not communicated with October and others, which makes October and others very worried.

Another fifteen days have passed, and Liu Chu is still like this.

And those who waited to see Liu Chu continue to break through the hundred steps ladder, they didn't see Liu Chu come for a month, thinking that he had given up, many people let out a hearty smile, and even some villains deliberately passed on the news, comparing Liu Chu to a toad who failed to eat swan meat.

It used to be something that only a few people knew about, but now it's almost everyone's known, and the taste has changed a lot in everyone's mouth.

"Hey, do you know, that Liu Chu lost a bet with someone, so he is not qualified to break through the Hundred Steps Ladder again. ”

"I heard that it was his arrogance that provoked Teacher Tong Zhenghai, so the teacher didn't allow him to break in. ”

"Anyway, it's almost the same, this kid, is a toad who wants to eat swan meat, and wants to break through the hundred ladders?

"That's it, it's so unbelievable that he provoked Teacher Tong, don't let him break it now, he just deserves it!"

I don't know what's going on, and the nature of this matter has completely changed, and it has become that Liu Chu disrespects the division commander and is too arrogant, and he contradicts Tong Zhenghai, so he is punished and can never break through the hundred steps ladder.

And Liu Chu has also become a "madman" in the mouth of the students of the academy.

"It's so annoying, who the fuck broke these unwarranted news from his mouth!" Xi Feichen jumped to his feet in anger.

"That's it, don't let the Buddha me find out, the Buddha I will overtake him and be reincarnated as a pig!" Monk Zhiyi also scolded in a different way.

"Anyway, what's going on with this kid Liu Chu? wouldn't he be really stupid?" Xi Feichen looked at October.

"You ask me, who do I ask. "October spread his hands.

From all aspects, Liu Chu is quite normal, but he doesn't communicate with people and doesn't care about the outside world, so they temporarily settled down in October and didn't bother Liu Chu, maybe he was in a certain state.

On the top of the hundred-step ladder, Tong Zhenghai was lying on the recliner with Erlang's legs crossed, humming a little song in his mouth, and taking a sip of tea from time to time, looking quite leisurely.

"Second uncle, why hasn't my friend come to break through the hundred steps ladder for so many days. The young man sat aside, pulling a bunch of grapes in his hand, and asked as he ate.

"You ask the second uncle, who is the second uncle asking?" Tong Zhenghai yawned, it was warm and sleepy.

"I've heard a lot of rumors, saying that you won't let him break through the Hundred Steps Ladder. The boy said.

"Fart! Where didn't Lao Tzu break into him? Don't pay attention to these rumors. However, it may cause psychological pressure on that kid. Tong Zhenghai smashed his mouth, today's tea seems to be a little more Chen than yesterday's.

Crunch.

In the compound, Liu Chu's door was pushed open, Liu Chu walked out of it, and everyone's eyes fell on Liu Chu, feeling that he seemed to be a little different.

"Hey, hey. Liu Chu laughed and walked towards everyone.

"Come with me to buy something later. Liu Chu took a cluster of melons and said to October.

Everyone looked at each other, how is this person?

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Liu Chu looked at everyone suspiciously.

"You don't know, you were weird for a month, and you didn't talk to us, we were worried about you. You're back to normal now, and we're getting a little uncomfortable. Wei Suo explained.

"Get out!" Liu Chu threw the melon skin at Wei Suo.

In the afternoon, Liu Chu went to rent two carriages, and October and Xi Feichen accompanied Liu Chu to the business district of Lulu City to purchase.

"What do you want to buy?" asked October during the period.

"You'll know when you buy it. Liu Chu didn't say much.

Liu Chu first came to a lumber shop.

"Boss, do you have a good ash here?" asked Liu Chu loudly after entering the store.

"Yes, how much does the little brother want?" The timber shop owner looked Liu Chu up and down, but he didn't see the depth of Liu Chu.

"It's about six inches wide, about three inches high, and about eight feet long, and it's about fifty of these specifications, is there any?" Liu Chu said his request.

"So much, little brother is going to make ash rods?" the timber shop owner was slightly surprised.

The ash rod is the body of an ordinary spear, the ash is extremely tough, not easy to break, and the weight is also appropriate, which is a good spear material.

"No, just ask you if you have it, I won't go to another house without me. Liu Chuxin said, how can this boss manage so wide.

"Yes, my ash wood is the best in the city! Our wood is for the Wu royal family! You should understand how good it is?" said the timber shop owner with some pride.

"Are you from Wu Guo?" Liu Chu looked the timber shop owner up and down, and the accent didn't look like it, but it looked like someone from Zhao Guo's side.

"That's not, I'm from Zhao, but my brother-in-law is from Wu, my brother-in-law and his uncle are craftsmen from the Wu royal family, and there are several timber shops under his hands. Said the owner of the lumber shop.

"I see, although the relationship is a bit complicated, but since it is the wood of the Wu Kingdom, it is definitely the best. ”

Liu Chu nodded slightly, the wood of Wu is the best in the world, and most of the wood of Karakuri City is imported from Wu State, so the quality is absolutely first-class and guaranteed.

"Can you get another ash log with a diameter of three feet and a height of eight feet?" asked Liu Chu again.

"Yes, no problem, when will the little brother want it?" asked the timber shop owner.

"Is there one now?" Liu Chu thought, of course, the sooner the better.

"In the evening, I'll drive out the fifty roots, you logs, it may take a few days, five days at the earliest. Said the owner of the lumber shop.

"Okay, I'll take the fifty in five days, and I'll deposit ten taels of silver. Liu Chu said that he gave the timber shop owner ten taels of silver, which was enough to pay a deposit.

Fei Yuquan felt that Liu Chu was also a big customer, and there were not many retail investors who bought so much timber at one time, so he intended to make friends.

"Liu Chu. Liu Chu returned the salute.

"Ah, little brother is Liu Chu?" Fei Yuquan was slightly surprised.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Liu Chu frowned slightly when he saw Fei Yuquan's surprised expression.

"It's rumored that you were punished by the master of Karakuri City and can't break through the Hundred Steps of Heaven Ladder anymore, but is it true?" Fei Yuquan asked.

"I don't know who spread this kind of rumor, but I will go to the hundred steps of the ladder soon, and I have a great deal of confidence that I will break through, and when the time comes, the rumors will naturally be self-defeating. Liu Chu said with an indifferent face.

The rumors stop at the wise, and when everyone becomes a stupid donkey, Liu Chu himself proves it with practical actions, that is, when the time comes, let those stupid donkeys shut up the donkey's mouth.

Fei Yuquan was thoughtful.

"Then I wish Xiaoyou a smooth passage of the Hundred Steps Ladder. ”

"I promise you. ”
