Beast

In the mining area of ​​Hantie Mining Area, Yang Qing was holding a hundred kilograms of Hantie raw ore and loading it on a four-wheeled cart. He looked relaxed and showed no sign of exertion.

I remember that day outside Fengju City, the middle-aged man asked everyone to move the hundred-jin stone. Those who could lift it could become the outer disciples of Hantie Mining District. At that time, Yang Qing, although he could lift the stone,

block, but it cannot be as easy as it is now.

It had only been a month since Yang Qing arrived in the Hantie Mining Area, and Yang Qing's strength in one arm was close to a hundred kilograms. With his arms clasped together, and the strength of his back, it would be easy to carry a stone weighing a hundred kilograms.

Yang Qing could feel the growth in strength, and the speed of growth surprised Yang Qing. Lu Zhen's strength also increased, but not as fast as Yang Qing's.

After Lu Zhen had no words to give to Yang Qing, Yang Qing helped him do half of the homework for another half month. After that, Lu Zhen had to do the full amount of homework every day. Every time he went to Akasuma to pick up the four-wheeled cart, he

Only then can you complete your daily homework.

This shows the difference in the growth rate of physical strength between Yang Qing and Lu Zhen.

After Lu Zhen mined the cold iron ore, he was exhausted. He didn't want to eat dinner. He just wanted to go back to the stone house and lie on the bed, muttering, "I really miss those half-months. I only did half of my homework every day."

"

When Yang Qing saw Lu Zhen's appearance, he asked him to get up and practice the "Sixteen Innate Styles" so that he could recover the physical strength that Lu Zhen had consumed in a day.

Lu Zhen was originally weak in health. He had been attending school at home and had never done heavy work. He mined about two thousand kilograms of cold iron ore a day in this cold iron mining area, which left him with no energy or interest to practice the "Ten Innate Ten"

Six Styles".

This Lu Zhen didn't listen to Yang Qing's advice to practice the "Sixteen Innate Movements". After eating the food Yang Qing brought him, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The next day, when Lu Zhen got up, the pain in his body had not disappeared much, and his strength and stamina had not recovered much. He was already in a hurry at work, but this time he completed the mining amount for that day with Yang Qing's help.

In Yang Qing's condition, it would take four hours to complete the daily mining amount. He planned to find a spacious and quiet place to practice in the remaining time. After all, when he completed his homework, there would be more than ten teenagers mining there.

, the sound of mining will affect Yang Qing’s practice.

Yang Qing and Lu Zhen have a very good relationship. Yang Qing cannot let Lu Zhen fail to complete his daily homework and be kicked out of the Han Iron Mining Area in the end. Therefore, Yang Qing has not been out of the Han Iron Mining Area so far.

area.

When Yang Qing and others came to this cold iron mining area for a month, deacon Zhou Tengyun gave each of the twenty new teenagers five taels of silver, and they would receive it every month in the future.

Yang Qing has never seen this kind of money in his life. His family does not have five taels of silver left at the end of the year except for expenses. You know, five taels of silver is enough for Yang Qing's family to have food and clothing for three to five months.

Holding the five taels of silver in his hand, Yang Qing looked at the silver and smiled stupidly. Lu Zhen saw Yang Qing's appearance and laughed at him for being a money-mad. His family is well-off, so naturally he doesn't understand Yang Qing's past life and his mood at this time.

.

Yang Qing didn't pay attention to Lu Zhen's teasing. He was not so happy because of the five taels of silver, but he was glad in his heart that he didn't give up in the first place and sighed about his luck.

These five taels of silver allow Yang Qing to see returns and real benefits. Yang Qing's current experience and knowledge are limited. He is still looking forward to gold and silver. Maybe in the future, these real gold and silver will be just ordinary weapon refining to him.

Just materials.

"Yang Qing, thank you so much for your help, otherwise I wouldn't be able to finish this damn homework." Lu Zhen said weakly, pulling his head.

"If you hadn't taught me how to read, I wouldn't even be able to master the "Sixteen Innate Forms" now, let alone practice it. If you want to say thank you, I would also like to thank you." Yang Qing said sternly, completing his mining amount and helping

Lu Zhen.

In addition to Yang Qing and Lu Zhen, there are two other people who are also hammering the cold iron ore and doing their homework.

One of them, a round-faced boy who was shorter than Yang Qing and handsome in appearance, raised the hammer high and smashed it hard against the cold iron ore in front of him.

Yang Qing, a round-faced boy, knew Yang Qing and Lu Zhen quite well. His name was Tian Bo. He was the same age as Yang Qing. He was more honest than Yang Qing. He was usually reticent and always smiled at everyone.

Tian Bo had been mining cold iron ore for such a long time. He felt exhausted all over. He felt pain even when he straightened his waist. The muscles in his arms were swollen, and the hand holding the handle of the hammer kept shaking.

Tian Bo, who was in this state, failed to control the strength and direction when he dropped the hammer. The long hammer fell sideways. The hammer head rubbed against the edge of the cold iron ore and hit it. Only a small piece of stone bounced off.

The stones flew outward.

"Who is your mother? Come out!" The stone rubbed a young man's feet and flew over. He was startled, and he reacted and cursed loudly.

This young man is twenty-four or five years old, with a square face, thick eyebrows and a square mouth, and a black stubble on his chin. Such a rough face has a pair of narrow eyes, which are radiating anger at the moment.

"Brother, I'm sorry. It was the pebbles I flew that shocked you. I'm really sorry." Tian Bo threw away the hammer in his hand and hurried forward to accompany him, his face full of apologies.

"What the hell did you do? Did you scare me? Did you know that the pebble hit my foot?" The young man saw that the other person was a round-faced boy who was new here. He lowered his head and asked fiercely.

"Brother, that pebble didn't hit you. I saw it. How could you be hit by a pebble with such skill?" Tian Bo hurriedly waved his hand to deny. Seeing that the pebble didn't knock down anyone, he naturally wouldn't admit it.

"Oh, you bastard, you still don't admit it. If I say you hit me, I hit you. Pay the damn money right away so that I can repair you." The young man's eyes stood up and his nose trembled. As he spoke, he rolled up the sleeves of his robe.

, it was about to take action.

"Brother, you can't bully others. That stone really didn't hit you. Everyone here saw it," Tian Bo said anxiously, looking at others for help.

"You kid still wants to deny it? Damn it, go find someone and see who can testify for you. There are two of them. Come here, hurry up." The young man sneered and saw Yang Qing not far away.

and Lu Zhen, extending their hands to greet each other.

Even if the young man didn't look for them, Yang Qing still had to step forward to prove this. Yang Qing saw with his own eyes that the stone flew past the man's feet and landed next to the man's feet.

"Brother, I saw that pebble flew over and hit your shoe and fell next to it." Yang Qing stood next to Tian Bo and looked directly at the young man. His voice was not loud and he spoke clearly.

said.

"Who are you kid? What is it? Just say it, you, tell me." The young man glared at Yang Qing and pointed at Lu Zhen to tell him.

"I was smashing rocks at that time, so I didn't see it." Lu Zhen glanced at the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said expressionlessly.

"This kid must be on the same team as you. He's talking nonsense here." The young man looked irritable and impatient, "Hurry up and pay me five taels of silver, and this matter will be settled."

"I'll go find the stone and let you take a good look to see if I've hit it." Yang Qing's tone remained unchanged, but with a hint of dissatisfaction in his heart, he stepped forward and searched carefully not far from the young man's feet.

"It's just this stone. If you don't believe me, compare it with that stone." Yang Qing was delighted and raised his voice slightly. He held a stone and raised it in front of the young man.

He saw where the stones fell. Although the ground was full of stones, it was not difficult to find them.

"Brother, look, this is it." Tian Bo breathed a long sigh of relief and said with the same joy, seeing someone testifying on his behalf, he no longer had to be unjustly accused.

"What the hell are you looking at? How dare you meddle in my business?" The young man became angry and recognized that the stone was exactly the one that flew over.

This young man came to this cold iron mining area to hunt for treasures. If he is lucky enough to find a magic weapon or even a fragment of a spiritual treasure, he will be rich. His cultivation level does not have the ability to refine it, so it is a deal.

If you give it to others, that's a lot of spiritual stones.

The vast majority of outer disciples don't even have low-level magical weapons, let alone fragments of magical treasures. The fragments of magical treasures are much more powerful than the magical weapons.

As for spiritual stones, they are indispensable for monks. They can not only be used as currency in the world of cultivation, but can also be used to improve their cultivation. Deacons among the outer disciples can only receive a few spiritual stones every month.

After searching for a long time, I didn't see any hair, just rocks. When I was in a bad mood, I was startled by the sudden flying rocks. I saw that the round-faced boy was new here, so I came out to get some money.

Flowery thoughts.

Young people are no better than teenagers. They need more material things, including clothes and clothing. Which one does not need silver? Five taels of silver a month is not enough.

Yang Qing interfered with that young man's good deeds, so there was no reason not to be angry.

"Boy, you are quite capable, aren't you? Come and let me see how much your half-haired hair weighs," the young man said angrily and contemptuously.

As the young man spoke, he started to move his hands and reached out to grab Yang Qing's lapel. Yang Qing did not expect that the young man would do it as soon as he said so. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and hurriedly hid behind him. The young man missed the opportunity.

"Boy, let me repair you." The young man squeezed out these words through his teeth. He grabbed it casually and failed. He took a step forward with his left foot, turned sideways, raised his right foot, and kicked it out suddenly.

Yang Qing moved backwards to avoid the young man's grasping hand. As soon as his feet hit the ground, the young man raised his legs and kicked him. The speed was so fast that Yang Qing had no time to hide, so he had to raise his legs and bend his arms to protect his side.

This kick was so strong that Yang Qing was lifted up into the air and thrown backwards. He didn't know martial arts and didn't know how to exert force in the air to change his posture. He could only fall to the ground and roll a foot or two away.

Yang Qing's thighs and arms were numb with pain, and he felt that his bones were about to break. The stones on the ground hurt his whole body. If he hadn't protected his arms and thighs by his side in time, several ribs would have been broken.

"Kick him." When Lu Zhen saw Yang Qing being kicked to the ground, he screamed strangely and rushed towards the young man.

Tian Bo saw that Yang Qing was beaten for helping him because he started a fight. How could he just stand there and stare at him? He picked up a stone and rushed forward.

"Bad boy!" The young man kicked Lu Zhen on the lower abdomen, slapped Tian Bo on the face, and then said arrogantly, "If I had used my true energy, you would have burped your ass a long time ago, haha."

Lu Zhen and Tian Bo were knocked to the ground with a casual blow before they could rush in front of the young man.

They were no match for the young man.

This is not only a gap in age, but also a huge gap in cultivation.

Yang Qing and the others have not yet entered the first level of innate heaven, but the young man has entered the third level of innate heaven. The gap is too big.

It is absolutely true that if the young man had used his true energy, Yang Qing and the other three would have died long ago.

"What kind of bad guy are you going to attack? Today I will skin you first." The young man narrowed his eyes and ignored Lu Zhen and the others, and sneered and ran towards Yang Qing.

"You four are tired of staying here, aren't you? If you don't want to be around, get out of here." Zhou Tengyun walked out of his stone house and shouted angrily at Yang Qing and the others.

"Zhou Tenghai, Yang Qing, Lu Zhen, and Tian Bo, all four of you, come in," Zhou Tengyun said expressionlessly.;
