Chapter 14: Insult
A bald man with a height of six feet, standing five feet away, was holding his arms with both hands, slanting his eyes and sneering at this side, revealing two big golden teeth.
I saw that he was wearing a short black coat from the Refining Hall, with a copper-colored fist pattern embroidered on his chest, the black hair on his chest, and the full and strong chest muscles were squeezed out from between his arms, and those two arms were as thick as ordinary people's thighs, which was very scary to look at.
He was accompanied by two retinues, who were also quite sturdy, but they were both dressed as servants, not alchemists.
Zhang Di saw the fist pattern on this person's chest clearly, and couldn't help but be shocked: "The first-level body refiner of the Body Refining Hall!"
As soon as Lu Tian'er saw this bald man, she trembled with fright and hurriedly shrank behind her grandfather.
The bald man stepped forward and said with a hippie smile at Lu Tian'er: "Lu Tian'er, I haven't seen you for a few days and you've been in the water again?" Hehe, this is the candy man I bought from the outside market, take it and try it." As he spoke, he took out a handful of candy from his bosom and handed it over with his big fluffy hand.
"Get out!" the old donkey's head shouted violently, picked up the spirit hoe and drew a spiritual light, which quickly slashed towards the man's legs.
The man didn't expect the old donkey's head to be so fast, and he retreated backwards in embarrassment, and he was able to avoid the hoe, but he hid in front of the thorn tree wall on the edge of the spiritual field.
The old donkey's head pinched the trick in his hand, and a ring on his wrist lit up, and shouted: "Winding!"
Immediately, more than a dozen thorny rattans rushed out, and when they were about to be entangled, the bald man shouted angrily, pulled out his hands from in front of him, revealing the two black and heavy fists on his fists, and crossed them in front of him.
Bang!
The glove of the fist was full of inspiration, and it just collided with the dozen or so thorny rattans that pounced on him, blocking all the rattan attacks, and he did a backward somersault and jumped a foot away, avoiding the attack range of the thorny rattans.
His two attendants were so frightened that they retreated again and again, until they hid several feet away, and looked at them in disbelief, but they didn't expect the old donkey's head to be so powerful, and they forced their master back in a few strokes.
Zhang Di, who was watching from the sidelines, saw the electric and flint fights in his eyes, and was excited and surprised: "It's amazing! That fist glove is also a spirit tool, right?"
This kind of scene of the use of spirit tools and spirit plants fighting between body refiners really made him unimaginable, the thorn rattan could directly entangle the stone, but it was blocked by the opponent's spirit tool fist gloves, indicating that the power of the opponent's punch was enough to open the stone crack.
He moved lightly and moved behind the old donkey's head, intending to hide behind his master and watch the battle again, this kind of battle between body refiners was extremely rare, and he had to find a safe place to see it clearly.
The bald man stood still, gasped for a few moments, then glared angrily at him, and scolded: "Okay, you old donkey!
"No, get out of here!" the old donkey's eyes lit up, and he waved the hoe in his hand and shouted angrily.
The bald man's face was full of anger, snorting and snorting, his eyes were about to pop out, and he seemed to want to do it immediately, but he was finally afraid of the old donkey's means, and snorted: "Lao Tzu is not here to fight today, let you go for the time being, hurry up and hand over the money of the mountain patrol, and Lao Tzu will leave!"
The old donkey didn't talk nonsense with him, reached into his arms, took out a few ingots of silver, threw them over, and shouted: "Take the silver and get out of here! The next time I see you pestering my little granddaughter, break your two dog legs!"
The bald man sneered, copied the silver, saw the number clearly, and turned his face and said: "You, new little guy, don't think that I won't see you if you hide behind the old immortal!
Zhang Di's heart was full of anger, and he wanted to ask him why he was and who he represented?
But the old donkey held his shoulder: "Disciple, give him the silver, and I'll explain this matter to you." ”
Zhang Di held back his anger, so he had to take out two ingots of silver and throw them to him, feeling very unhappy, the three ingots of silver were not yet hot, and in a blink of an eye, two ingots were missing.
The bald man took the silver, swiped it in his hand a few times, showed out his big gold teeth and sneered: "Let's go!" and swaggered away with two entourage.
Before leaving, he also glanced at Lu Tian'er with malicious eyes, and stayed on Zhang Di for a moment by the way.
Zhang Di felt it very clearly, his eyes were full of disdain and mockery, as if to say: "Stinky boy, let you follow the old thing, sooner or later you will suffer!"
Seeing the group leave, the old donkey stomped his foot heavily and let out a sigh of hatred.
At this time, he was in no mood to continue to teach Zhang Di to farm, so he called Zhang Di and Lu Tian'er home and told the ins and outs in detail.
It turned out that the bald man nicknamed "Big Golden Tooth" was the small leader of the mountain patrol guard team on this mountain, and his duty was to patrol the mountains and prevent wild beasts or demon beasts from running out of the back mountain, that is, the peaks of the black forest, scourge the spiritual field and devour the spiritual valley.
Every time the spirit valley is ripe, it will exude a rich sweet smell, which has been floating for dozens of miles, attracting some beasts and monsters in the back mountains to come and steal food.
In order to maintain the patrol fee of the escort team, the sect stipulated that the large and small spiritual farmers needed to pay a share of the money according to their respective levels and harvests. Generally, the newcomer is one-fifth of the monthly profit, and the old man will increase a little, and he needs to take a cut of the harvest of the year's Linggu.
This was originally a good thing, but the problem was that the patrol guard was directly managed by the deputy hall master Hao Ren, who he said would participate in the election; he said that the amount of money should be paid; he said that where he should inspect, it was where he was, and he appointed his son Hao Yan as the head of the guard, turning this matter into a tool for him to extort money.
Zhong Lingnong didn't want to do much, so he had to pinch his nose and pay this money obediently, generally as long as he was obedient, he wouldn't have any trouble, but he was a little angry, the cost was higher, and he could still live.
That Hao Ren is not stupid, he really wants to squeeze all the spirit farmers to the point that he can't survive, and his position is not stable.
When Zhang Di heard this, he asked puzzledly: "Master, can't we Lingnong go to the sect together to complain? Wouldn't he violate the rules of the sect by bullying Lingnong like this, and should be punished by the sect?"
The old donkey shook his head with a wry smile: "You think too simply, although Hao Ren's son is not an immortal master, but only a second-level body refiner, Hao Ren is a real immortal master, I heard that there is enough to refine the fifth layer of qi! Besides, he has a big backer behind him, it seems that he is an elder of the sect, and he also has a relationship with him."
Besides, the status of our mortal body refiners is already low, and it is normal to be bullied by immortal masters, and the high-level members of the sect also turn a blind eye, as long as they don't make too much trouble, they still protect their own interests of immortal masters. Before, a Lingnong had a big conflict with Hao Ren, and went to the top of the sect to complain, but in the end, Hao Ren didn't do anything, but Lingnong was inexplicably driven out of the sect, and I heard that he died tragically outside!"
When Zhang Di heard this, he couldn't help but shudder, and suddenly felt that the water of this Qingyue faction was very deep, far more complicated than he imagined, and that Hao Ren couldn't look down on himself alive or dead, he was only afraid of ...... I'm afraid it won't be easy to do in the future!
The old donkey head seemed to see what he was thinking, stretched out his big hand and touched his head, and encouraged: "Don't be afraid, that Hao Yi is here for the teacher, you just need to farm well, hand over the Linggu on time and in quantity, don't conflict with them, I don't think it will embarrass you." ”
Zhang nodded and asked, "How did Master provoke them?"
The old donkey's head sighed, and when he said something, it almost blew up his lungs.
It turns out that Hao Yu is a swinger, he is just a mess of flowers, he has no spiritual roots, he can't cultivate immortals, so he wants to increase his vitality and improve his longevity through the crooked evil ways of yin and yang.
happened to be protected by his father, and he was searching for mortal beauties openly and secretly to satisfy his **. Later, I don't know who I believed.,Not long ago, I began to like young girls.,That is, girls around thirteen years old.。 As a result, he accidentally took a fancy to Lu Tian'er and wanted to accept him as a concubine, but the old donkey's head was young with his granddaughter, and he waited for three or five years to talk about it, thinking about it for a long time, the other party might forget it.
How do you know that Hao Yu is a hungry ghost, personally or send his subordinates to have big gold teeth, come over to harass ** twice in three days, or find trouble with the old donkey's head in farming.
Fortunately, after all, the old donkey head has been in Linggutang for more than 20 years, and he also has his own connections, and he has united several senior old farmers to resist, so Hao Yu didn't dare to go too far, but the ridicule and harassment of the little ones are indispensable, which makes the old donkey head have a headache, so as soon as he saw the big gold tooth appear, he didn't give a good face at all, and directly scolded and drove away.
Zhang Di was young and didn't quite understand what yin and yang ** meant, but he also knew that the other party wanted to bully Lu Tian'er's junior sister, so he was so angry that he said loudly: "Master, you are so powerful, just fight with that Hao Yu sect, I mentioned in the door rules that there is a grudge between the disciples of the sect, you can fight in the sect, and the loser must not be entangled anymore, otherwise he will be punished by the sect law enforcement hall!"
The old donkey shook his head with a wry smile: "Apprentice, you really think highly of the master, I am just a big man in the pond, shaking in front of you! Although I have not gone to the Refining Hall for assessment, with the assistance of the Thorn Tree in Lingtian, it is estimated that my strength is almost the second-level refiner, but without the Thorn Tree, I am only a little more first-level refiner."
This is not a problem to deal with that Teng Great Golden Tooth, but it is not enough to deal with Hao Yu, who is a second-level body refiner! You must know, that Hao Yu has an immortal master's father, and he doesn't have any powerful spiritual tools in his hand? There is no elixir for rapid improvement of cultivation? I heard that he uses Linggu as his daily rice to eat!
Alas, I guess that Hao Yan's true strength is probably close to that of a third-level body refiner, and he can't afford to provoke it, he can't afford to provoke it!" Speaking of this, he shook his head again and again.
"That'...... So what should I do?"
The old donkey touched his head and said with a wry smile: "For today's plan, only to drag on one day is one day, I plan to tell Tian Er about her mother-in-law as soon as possible, preferably a more powerful body refiner, so that someone can protect her." ”
"No, grandpa, I'm not going anywhere, I'll accompany you!" Lu Tian'er, who had not spoken, cried and threw herself into the arms of the old donkey.
Zhang Di really didn't have a taste in his heart, and he didn't know how to comfort him, now he couldn't protect himself, and there was such a big trouble with the previous master, it seemed that God was sneering in the dark, and he wanted to step on himself into the mud, just get up and step on it, until he couldn't get up at all, and mixed with the mud.
At this time, the stubbornness hidden in his heart jumped up, he raised his head and said loudly: "Master, junior sister, don't be discouraged, think that there is no endless road that day, as long as we work together, we will be able to find a way to crack it!
The old donkey head was stunned when he heard this, and slowly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he stretched out his cigarette pouch and knocked on his head and said, "Okay, you little guy, you are really bold!"
Lu Tian'er raised her head, tears hung on her tender white face, and she nodded vigorously at Zhang Di: "Well, Brother Zhang, I listen to you, Tian'er won't cry!"
The three of them talked for a while, and then said goodbye and left.
Lu Tian'er looked at the back of Zhang Di leaving, and asked his grandfather: "Grandpa, you never accept apprentices, how can you accept him as an apprentice? Do you think he is obedient?"
The old donkey shook his head and smiled: "It's not for you?"
"For me?" Lu Tian'er was puzzled.
The old donkey reached out and stroked her hair, and asked earnestly: "Tian'er, grandpa is old and can't protect you for a lifetime, if you are promised to your brother of the Zhang family, will you?"
Lu Tian'er was stunned for a moment, and then understood the meaning of grandpa's apprenticeship, a large flush appeared on his little face, and he was bright and unparalleled for a while, and he bowed his head and said shyly: "Grandpa......"
The old donkey's mouth smiled, lit a dry tobacco, and smoked a few times, as if talking to himself, and seemed to be saying to Lu Tian'er: "Hehe, then don't worry, let's take a look more, I believe that the person who Deacon Huang of the Formation Hall has a great future." There was a twinkle in his eyes.
