37 Crowding out and provoking

Under the loud urging of the foreman, all the warriors began to work one after another, and the sound of bells sounded in the courtyard.

In a remote corner of the backyard of the workshop, several strong middle-aged warriors who were working unhurriedly discussed in a low voice and angrily, looking at Ye Chen's gaze from time to time with strong hostility.

"This kid really doesn't understand the rules! Why is it that the newcomer is here, just making such a show, one person doing the work of three people, doesn't this clearly show the faces of the old people in the workshop! He works so hard, don't we people seem very incompetent?!"

A warrior hammered the ore and whispered in a low voice.

"Brother Hu, your strength is the strongest, the ninth layer of the body refining period. Wait a minute, let's teach him a lesson, and let this kid know whose territory this is!" another martial artist, who was forty or fifty years older, also said complainingly.

"Foreman Zhang is here, it's hard to do it. I'll talk about it when the work is finished in the evening!"

The shirtless strong man surnamed Hu wiped his face with a sweat towel and said lukewarmly.

Ye Chen was concentrating on using a heavy iron hammer to smash the dark iron ore and smash it into fine sand, but he didn't notice the hostile gazes of the few people in the corner.

Even if he saw it, he wouldn't particularly care.

Ye Chen understood very well in his heart.

After he smashed the dark iron ore with a hammer, he expected that the warriors in the courtyard would not look at him kindly, and most of them were envious and sneering.

Ye Chen started working in Beilu Academy at the age of five, and he has been doing odd labor for ten years, and he has seen a lot of such things. In those ten years, he got up early and worked late at night, ran the most diligently to the miscellaneous compound, and earned more money by doing the most miscellaneous work. If he preempts the job, it will definitely make other students who come to do chores feel unhappy.

I have offended many people for this, and I have not fought once or twice.

Therefore, when Ye Chen received miscellaneous labor in Beilu Academy, he did not talk too much with other students.

Working in this small workshop, Ye Chen didn't need to look much to know that he used the Tiger Leap to smash the Xuaniron ore with three consecutive slashes, which would make many martial artists feel very unhappy. But can he not try his best to smash it! He only earns one spirit stone a month in rent, and if he only earns one spirit stone a month in the workshop, it is not equivalent to working in vain! So even if he offends people, he has to work hard.

When it was almost evening, Foreman Zhang left the backyard first.

The remaining dozen or so warriors left the courtyard one after another, but unlike the hurried departure in the past, many people slowed down intentionally or unintentionally, waiting to see a lively scene. Warriors who have worked in this workshop know that this workshop belongs to the owner, but this backyard is the territory of several veteran martial artists.

Ye Chen was the last to call it a day, and after he completely smashed the third piece of dark iron ore into fine sand, he put down the hundred-pound hammer.

"I've finally finished today's work! I smashed three pieces of dark iron ore into fine sand every day, and it is estimated that I can earn three spirit stones in a month. Pay the rent one piece, and buy the rest of the quenching herbs, which should be enough for your own use for the time being. ”

Ye Chen put down the hammer and exhaled slowly, secretly saying in his heart.

"Brother, it's over, you've done a good job today!"

A shirtless man passed by, greeted Ye Chen with a smile, and then continued over.

"Uh, yes!"

Ye Chen was slightly stunned, nodded with a smile, and wiped his sweat from his sleeve.

Call!

The shirtless man took a step over, suddenly turned around without warning, his face was extremely fierce, and he shouted, "Eat your uncle's punch!" His figure was strong and tall, and his punch was right in Ye Chen's upper body.

"Sure enough, it's here again!"

Ye Chen was already prepared in his heart, his eyes were cold, and his body suddenly slammed into the shirtless man, his right fist clenched, his whole body was infused with energy, and a punch blasted out.

Bang!

There was a muffled sound, and the two fists collided hard.

The difference between the two ninth-level martial artists in the refining stage is not much in strength.

Ye Chen finished punching, and a fierce wind on his feet kicked towards the shirtless man like lightning, as sharp as a knife.

Bang!

There was another muffled thud.

The sneak attack on the shirtless man blocked it with both fists, and took a big step back, only then did he gain a firm foothold, and his face changed slightly, "What a solid fist and foot kung fu, the chassis is solid, not a martial artist from a wild road!"

Ye Chen also took a step back, and opened a distance of a zhang from the shirtless man, his right hand stopped above the handle of the treasure knife at his waist.

"What do you mean by punching me?"

Ye Chen stared at the shirtless man with his eyes dead, and said coldly.

"Hmph, it's not interesting. This is a warning for you. This small workshop can't support a few people, you do the work of three people by yourself, you work so hard, it won't be long before the owner will reduce people, you want us to roll up and get out!!"

The shirtless man said fiercely, "Lao Tzu has been here for ten years, and no one can let Lao Tzu get out, and no one can let Lao Tzu's brother get out." Today, Lao Tzu will tell you that you kid had better be more restrained and put away your skills, otherwise there will be no place for you here. ”

In the courtyard, all the warriors stopped, in twos and threes, with a look of watching the show, watching this scene, but no one tried to interfere. Many of them were probably gloating, and they were happy to see someone come forward to clean up Ye Chen.

Ye Chen's eyes sank.

Of course, he understood that he had been ostracized by other martial artists in this small workshop, and he was very squeezed out. The more work he did in a day, the more he was excluded.

"What if I keep doing this!!"

Ye Chen said coldly, stretched out his five fingers, and slowly put his hand on the handle of the treasure knife on his waist.

"Then uncle, I'll weigh your skills today!"

The shirtless man's pupils shrank, and he slowly took a step back, grabbing a heavy hammer for work.

Shirtless men don't dare to take it lightly.

Ye Chen's tiger leap slashed three times in a row, and more than 2,700 catties of violent dao shattered the Xuaniron ore with one blow, the power made people's hearts palpitate, and it was definitely not a joke to take a knife on the flesh and blood, it was crippled at least and killed at worst.

Moreover, the shirtless man could see that Ye Chen was resolute in his killing, with murderous intent, and he was by no means a martial artist who had just come out to mix.

"Wait! Brother Hu, this old brother, don't do it!"

A forty or fifty-year-old martial artist who was watching saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly persuaded him, "The rules of Tianwu Immortal Yuan City are big, only Dou Xiantai can fight, and fighting is strictly prohibited in other places. If you cause trouble and brawl in the city, no matter who is injured or killed, you two will definitely be driven out of the fairy city. It's better for everyone to take a step back, brother, you do less work, and Brother Hu don't look at him unpleasantly, so that everyone's life in this workshop will be better!"

Ye Chen glanced at the martial artist and sneered, "Why didn't you keep quiet when he attacked me just now? You are clearly in a group, one pair and one sing, fooling me! If he hurt me just now, you guys will join forces and push everything on me! Unfortunately, his chances of winning are not very big, and they will definitely not exceed four or five percent." Even if he can seriously hurt me, I'll pull him on his back!"

"I don't know what to do, I'm thinking about you! When you are kicked out of the fairy city, don't blame me for not reminding you. ”

The forty or fifty-year-old warrior was recognized, and his old face couldn't be hung up, and he was suddenly a little annoyed.

"I have to get three spirit stones this month!"

Ye Chen ignored the martial artist and said coldly to the shirtless man, "But don't worry, since this is your territory, I won't take the lead and I won't stay here for long." After this month, I'll leave here after taking three spirit stones!"

"A month, really a month and then leave?"

The shirtless man said, his brows slowly relaxed. If Ye Chen only worked for a month, he really didn't need to make another move. If he really wants to fight, he is not very sure. It's better to take a step back.

"Yes, I came to Tianwu Immortal Yuan City to seek the Immortal Dao, not to compete with you for a job here. I'm only going to stay for a month, and I won't stop you from continuing to work here!"

Ye Chen took the treasure knife and left the small refining workshop.

"This kid has a big mouth!"

The shirtless man had a calm face, watching Ye Chen leave, he didn't make a move, and he didn't stop it. Ye Chen's words stung him even more.

"This kid is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers!"

"This martial artist in the Heavenly Misty Immortal Yuan City, who doesn't aspire to become a high-ranking and honorable immortal cultivator!?

"But to take this step, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, and it is easier said than done!!"

The more than ten martial artists in the small courtyard looked at each other, their faces were very embarrassed, and even their expressions were gloomy, and they sighed.

The vast majority of the martial artists in the city, more than ninety percent of them, have been doing nothing after ten or twenty years of cultivation, and their enterprising spirit has gradually worn off.

Seeking the heart of the immortal path is fading day by day. But they are reluctant to leave this fairy city that has brought them countless dreams, just want to eat peacefully in the fairy city, and be able to keep a handy job in the fairy city, and it is already safe to get by.

"Let's go, go back to cultivating! That kid is not willing to be just a martial artist, we can't be too slack!"

In the small workshop, the warriors gradually dispersed.
