Cultivation Of Immortality: Starting From Working As A Cook In A Weapon-Refining Shop
Chapter 37 Captain Lu
After disposing of all his belongings, he barely raised enough 50,000 spiritual stones.
So, he bought a foundation-building pill without stopping, took a bath and burned incense, and began to retreat to build the foundation.
The foundation-building pill is obviously different from the pills you usually practice.
Practicing elixirs mainly provides spiritual power. The Foundation Establishment Pill cleanses the muscles and marrow and transforms the body.
As he ate the Foundation Establishment Pill, Lu Yu felt unbearably hot all over his body, as if he had entered a furnace, where his body was being continuously burned, destroyed, and rebuilt.
Every time it is destroyed and rebuilt, a layer of impurities leaks out of the body.
As the impurities were discharged, he felt that his body became lighter and stronger.
However, a month later, he still walked out in despair.
Foundation building failed!
At the last moment, the bottleneck in front of him was like an iron wall that could not be broken no matter what.
"It turns out that my qualifications are really so poor. Others have succeeded in building a foundation with just one foundation-building pill, but I have no hope at all."
He spent all his savings buying the Foundation Establishment Pill this time, and now he had nothing.
And I don’t know what year or month the next Foundation Establishment Pill will be.
Lu Yu had no choice but to return to Linyuan City again.
There is no other way, money comes quickly from the military camp.
…………………………………………
As soon as I entered the small courtyard of the station, I met Shen Jing's figure.
Their eyes met, and the air suddenly became quiet.
Shen Jing looked at Lu Yu blankly, with red eyes and a little resentment.
The expression on his face was even weirder, as if he wanted to laugh or cry.
"Hey, I know I'm handsome, but you don't have to look at me so affectionately, right?"
Lu Yu suddenly spoke out narcissistically, breaking the embarrassment.
"screw you!"
After Lu Yu's interruption, Shen Jing finally burst into laughter.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Shen Jing suddenly said:
"By the way, Captain Lu! The general is waiting for you."
"Captain Lu? What Captain Lu?" Lu Yu was a little confused.
"Go quickly, I'll explain to you later."
"OK!"
Lu Yu didn't hesitate and hurriedly walked towards the general's palace.
But when he came out of the general hall and looked at the captain's token in his hand, it felt unreal.
That silly girl Shen Jing was willing to give all the credit to herself?
Apart from anything else, this silly girl is quite loyal.
…………………………………………
Returning to the station, I just entered the small courtyard.
The courtyard was buzzing with people, and at some point, thirty monks including Shen Jing had gathered.
"I've met Captain Lu!"
As thirty people chanted in unison, Lu Yu felt a little dazed.
Are these all his own soldiers?
This made him feel like he had returned to Blue Star, back to those war-torn days.
He quickly pulled aside the smiling Shen Jing and asked in a low voice what was going on.
Following Shen Jing's narration, Lu Yu quickly understood what happened.
It turns out that these are the remnants of the defeated generals who were defeated and scattered. No one wants them. No wonder they are so respectful to themselves.
Shen Jing thought Lu Yu would be disappointed, but she didn't see any disappointed expression on his face.
"Ahem..." Lu Yu cleared his throat and walked to the middle of the crowd.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw an uninvited guest walking in at the door of the courtyard.
"Hey, there are so many people here!"
A sinister male foundation-building cultivator stepped in carelessly.
"Situ Ming! What are you doing here!" After seeing the person coming, Shen Jing's face turned cold and she asked.
The rest of the team members also looked unhappy when they saw the visitor.
"Haha, of course I'm here to see the squad leader you've always been thinking about."
The male foundation-building cultivator smiled slightly when he saw everyone's reaction, but didn't care.
Instead, he began to look at Lu Yu unscrupulously, shaking his head constantly while looking at him.
"I wonder who this senior brother is?" Lu Yu felt his heart tremble after being looked at, and said a little unhappy.
"The captain of the team next door has some problems with me." Shen Jing explained softly in Lu Yu's ear.
Lu Yu understood clearly after hearing this, no wonder the other party was so aggressive.
Resources are limited and competition among teams is fierce.
What's more, Shen Jing was almost wiped out last time, so the other party would not give up this opportunity to suppress him.
It was just this intimate gesture between the two that aroused Situ Ming.
He has coveted Shen Jing for a long time, but has never been able to get what he wanted.
I didn’t expect that such a young person would get there first!
"Junior sister Shen, your squad leader doesn't look very good. He can't be your old friend, can he?" Situ Ming said in a sour tone.
"Situ Ming! What nonsense are you talking about!" Shen Jing's face turned red when she heard this, and she glanced at Lu Yu unnaturally, for fear that the other party would think too much.
"Otherwise, why don't you be a good captain and insist on giving it to this kid?"
"That's because I don't deserve it!"
"Okay, then why don't you come to our team and have to bring such a bunch of crooked melons and dates?"
"This..." Shen Jing was speechless for a moment after hearing this.
Even the other team members looked over.
"Can't you tell me?" Situ Ming said with a triumphant expression.
"This is my business! It has nothing to do with you!"
Shen Jing panicked and could only say coldly.
But everyone could see how feeble her explanation was.
Could it be true?
"Senior brother, could it be because of your lack of charm?" Lu Yu suddenly pushed away the somewhat overwhelmed Shen Jing and said with a smile.
"What? What did you say?" Situ Ming was shocked and a little unbelievable.
Even the team members below were a little surprised.
The record of Situ Ming's team is ranked among the best in the entire Linyuan City, and many people can only secretly envy it.
Unexpectedly, he was despised by his own captain.
It’s true that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers!
"I mean, Senior Sister Shen would rather choose me than you, it must be because I am excellent and you are so bad!" Lu Yu continued indifferently.
As soon as Lu Yu said this, everyone was stunned.
Even Shen Jing turned around and looked over.
Seems to make sense?
Even if we are in love, why not you?
In this reality of the world of immortality, is it possible that some people are still letting go of good things?
For a moment, everyone looked at Situ Ming strangely.
"Okay! You kid really dares to say that, you simply don't know the heights of the world!"
Situ Ming was very angry when he heard this.
"I really don't know how high the sky is, but I only know that you are not welcome here!" Lu Yu issued an eviction order without ceremony.
"Okay! Okay! Just wait and see! Let's see how long you can be proud." Situ Ming said a harsh word and rushed out the door angrily.
"Then don't worry about me, senior brother! Let's go slowly without seeing him off!" Lu Yu continued with a smile.
…………………………………………
After seeing Situ Ming off, the yard finally became quiet.
Although Shen Jing felt that Lu Yu's words just now relieved her, she couldn't be happy at all.
After all, he had offended Situ Ming, and life would be difficult in the future.
However, all the team members looked at Lu Yu with admiration.
They all wanted to see what this young man was capable of and how he captured the heart of this cold beauty.
However, Lu Yu ignored everyone's scrutiny and just walked calmly among them and said calmly:
"They say you are all rubbish! Because everyone else died in the battle, and you are the only one who is still alive!"
Everyone trembled when they heard the words, and they couldn't calm down for a while.
Obviously, this sentence has deeply hurt their hearts during this period of time.
"But I don't think so." Lu Yu suddenly continued.
"On the contrary, I think you are all precious!"
After hearing this, everyone raised their heads.
"In fighting on the battlefield, life is the first priority. There is no shame in this! Fight if you can win, and retreat if you can't! Keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood!"
Everyone looked at Lu Yu at this time and were a little surprised.
This captain is actually encouraging everyone to become deserters?
"On the contrary, if you have experienced failure, you will know better how to assess the situation and act within your capabilities!"
"I don't expect you to march forward bravely every time you fight! I just hope that when you have a chance of winning, you fight hard, and when you don't have a chance of winning, you retreat quickly!"
"In short, one sentence! We only fight to win! If we can't win, then we don't fight!"
"???"
Everyone suddenly had a lot of questions, and even Shen Jing looked confused.
What the hell is this kid doing?
However, although Lu Yu's theory is very nonsense, it has won the hearts of everyone.
Therefore, no one raised any objection.
"Okay, now I announce that Shen Jing is the vice-captain. You always listen to her and don't bother me if you have nothing to do!"
"???"
"Did you hear everything?"
"Yes! Captain!" Shen Jing took the lead and everyone shouted in unison.
Lu Yu nodded with satisfaction and went back to his room to practice alone.
Nothing about connecting feelings and cultivating tacit understanding is not necessary.
As for the heroic words he said to Situ Ming, he had long forgotten them.
As a result, the captain Lu Yu completely became the hands-off shopkeeper.
All matters are handled by Shen Jing.
He had no choice but to seize the time to refine weapons and earn spiritual stones.
Only Shen Jing has always been worried, thinking about how to take on tasks and improve the strength of the team.
"Report to the captain, there is a mission,..."
"No answer!"
"Captain, there is..."
"No answer!"
…
Shen Jing reported to Lu Yu the tasks he thought were good in two and a half days, hoping that Lu Yu would take over.
However, Lu Yu refused every time without listening to the end.
This confused everyone who was staring at Lu Yu.
…………………………………………
A month later, Shen Jing found Lu Yu again.
"Report to the captain, there is a mission. This time it was assigned by the commander himself. You must take it!"
Shen Jing said quickly, fearing that Lu Yu would refuse again.
"Oh? What mission?" Lu Yu was a little surprised.
"The commander asked us to attack a mineral stronghold."
"What's going on with the stronghold defenders?" Lu Yu stopped what he was doing, raised his head and asked.
"The news says that there is one person in the defenders building foundation, 10 people at the peak of Qi training, and dozens of miners, all of whom are around the middle stage of Qi training."
"Oh, let's go then." Lu Yu nodded and put down the newly refined magic weapon.
This time it was a task directly assigned by his superiors, and he couldn't refuse even if he wanted to.
So I had to accept it reluctantly.
Shen Jing was very efficient in doing things, and it didn't take long for the entire team to pack their bags and set off to the Million Mountains together.
Along the way, Lu Yu closed his eyes and rested his mind, not caring about worldly affairs.
Shen Jing had no choice but to work hard and do everything for her.
No way, I owe him!
After several days and nights of wind and rain, we are getting closer and closer to the target base.
It is estimated that after climbing a few hills, we can see the mine.
Suddenly, Lu Yu stopped and issued his first command: "Stop!"
"What's wrong?" Shen Jing was stunned when he heard this and quickly called the team.
"Return immediately along the same path!"
Lu Yu didn't explain, just said something lightly, then turned and walked back.
"Ah? But the commander's order..."
"It's okay, I'll be responsible if something goes wrong!"
"That's...okay."
Shen Jing was a little helpless and had to order the team to follow.
Everyone in the team was a little confused at this time.
Could it be that this captain is used to being a coward?
It was just that he kept refusing to accept tasks before, but now that things have come to a head, he is still shrinking.
But under Shen Jing's shock, no one asked any more questions.
At this time, in a valley ten miles ahead, there was a team of Nanming monks lurking quietly.
Among them, there are three foundation-building captains, one captain and two auxiliaries, and there are 70 Qi-training ninth-level team members.
The team of Nanming monks had long ago discovered that Lu Yu and others were coming, and had formulated a beheading strategy.
However, they waited and waited, but they never waited until Lu Yu's people approached.
When the spies went to inquire again, they were told that the other party had run away!
"What's going on? Did the other party find out?" Captain Fan Yan was so angry that he wanted to curse.
I and others have been drinking the northwest wind like this all day, seeing that the other party is about to enter an ambush, and now I just watch them run away?
no! After learning that Xuantian Continent's team indeed only had thirty-one people, Nanming Continent captain Fan Yan decisively issued the order to pursue!
…………………………………………
"Turn left!"
Xuantian's team returned along the original route. After jogging for a while, they suddenly received Lu Yu's order again.
But now that he has decided to give up, it doesn't matter where he goes, and no one has any doubts.
"Turn right!"
Not long after, Lu Yu suddenly said again.
"..."
"Speed up!"
"..."
As Lu Yu issued strange orders one after another, everyone gradually started to complain.
However, under Shen Jing's constraints, they could only comply with it.
If viewed from a high place, Lu Yu seemed to have a God's perspective at this moment, leading the team of Nanming monks behind him in circles.
