Lonely Immortal
Chapter 14 Team
Zhang Zhiwen sat in the house with Yan Ling and others. He said almost nothing and basically just listened to them.
After struggling to survive outside for these years, Zhang Zhiwen understood a truth, that is, no matter when, you should speak less, because there is a saying that goes, trouble comes from the mouth.
At this time, Yan Ling and others were discussing tomorrow's itinerary.
As the eldest brother, Yan Ling naturally has the most say. On the one hand, he is experienced, and on the other hand, he is also the most powerful among these people.
Therefore, he pointed to a map on the table and said, "My opinion is to go to Wuping River and go west along the river to avoid the road of Xueling. After all, wild beasts have frequently appeared there recently. If we encounter bandits again, we will be in trouble."
"Well, Brother Yan is right, but it has been raining these days. Will it be difficult to go west along the river?"
Zhou Wan was a little worried, because he was responsible for exploring the way. If the terrain and environment were not good, he would definitely be in trouble.
"It's okay. After so many years of drought, a little rain is nothing. Besides, if there is any disturbance, there is no need to be afraid with the senior brother here."
Li Xiaoqing was a little disapproving. She felt that Zhou Wan was always too cautious.
Seeing that Li Xiaoqing said so, Zhou Wan didn't know what to say. After all, he was not the senior brother, but it could be seen that he still didn't agree with this route.
So, he looked at Zhang Zhiwen and asked, "Junior brother, what do you think?"
"I'm fine with it. I'll listen to everyone."
Zhang Zhiwen naturally wouldn't express any opinions. On the one hand, he had no experience. On the other hand, he also saw that even in this small team, people's hearts were not very united.
Yan Ling and Li Xiaoqing were obviously closer, while Zhou Wan was a little distant. Zhou Wan came to ask him for his opinion, and it was obvious that he was also planning to pull someone to his side to balance the strength of the team.
But Zhang Zhiwen was not stupid. He would not let others be used as guns.
Zhou Wan saw that Zhang Zhiwen had no opinion, so he could only reluctantly agree to Yan Ling's proposal.
"Okay, let's assign our responsibilities now."
Yan Ling nodded and continued, "I'll still lead the charge, there's nothing to say about this. Brother Zhou, you'll be responsible for exploring the way, as usual, as for Xiaoqing, you'll be the last, and then what about Junior Brother Zhang..."
Speaking of this, Yan Ling looked at Zhang Zhiwen, "Junior Brother Zhang, you'll be responsible for logistics and keep our belongings safe, what do you think?"
Zhang Zhiwen naturally had no objection and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to Senior Brother's arrangements."
Seeing Zhang Zhiwen so cooperative, Yan Ling was naturally quite satisfied.
But Zhou Wan was a little bit dissatisfied, so he said, "Brother Yan, this arrangement is probably not appropriate, right? Li Huan was responsible for guarding with Xiaoqing before, and now there is one less helper, I'm afraid Xiaoqing will be under a lot of pressure, right?"
Hearing this, Li Xiaoqing also showed a trace of worry, but she looked at Yan Ling first, wanting to hear what Yan Ling meant.
"It's okay, it's okay. Think about it. There are no people along the river going west. I'm leading the charge. What are you worried about? Besides, Junior Brother Zhang is new here and doesn't have any martial arts skills. How can you ask him to help Xiaoqing?"
Yan Ling's words are reasonable, but Zhang Zhiwen knows that Yan Ling is trying to win him over. Although he doesn't have any martial arts skills, he is still a member of the team. If he stands on Zhou Wan's side, then he, the so-called senior brother, will face challenges immediately.
But if Zhang Zhiwen is given a favor, then Zhang Zhiwen will definitely stand on his side. His position in the team will be stable, and he will basically have the final say in the future.
"That's true. I think it's a good arrangement for the senior brother. After all, Junior Brother Zhang doesn't have any martial arts skills. If he follows me, I'm afraid he will implicate me."
Li Xiaoqing also agreed with Yan Ling's proposal. It can be seen that she is not stupid. Standing on Zhou Wan's side will not benefit her, and it will offend the senior brother. It's not worth it.
Now that Yan Ling and Li Xiaoqing have expressed their opinions, Zhou Wan has no choice but to accept Yan Ling's arrangement.
Zhang Zhiwen saw their situation clearly, but he pretended to know nothing on the surface. However, he understood that the people in this team were not united, and each had their own interests. It seemed that it was unknown how far they could go.
But that was a matter for the future. It was more appropriate to follow them for now.
"Well, let's decide on the division of labor, and then let's talk about the distribution. If Junior Brother Li Huan was here, we would basically share it equally. Junior Brother Li Huan also practiced external martial arts, and he had no objection. I certainly had no objection either, but now..."
Yan Ling glanced around, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and he said meaningfully: "But now it's different. Junior Brother Li Huan is gone, so naturally I am responsible for the safety of the whole team. I'm not going to mince words. I want 40%. Isn't that too much?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Wen and Li Xiaoqing looked at each other and did not object.
Seeing that they had no objection, Yan Ling continued: "Well, Junior Brother Zhang is a newcomer after all, and he has worked hard. We can't let him get too little. He should get 20% like you guys. What do you think?"
"How can that be possible?"
Zhou Wan objected immediately.
In his opinion, Zhang Zhiwen just memorized some things and didn't have to do anything, but he got the same share as him. He would not accept it.
But when Yan Ling saw his reaction, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes, and then he seemed helpless and said, "There is no other way. Can we let Junior Brother Zhang get 10%?"
When Zhou Wan heard this, he seemed to notice something different.
Yes, this was Yan Ling's intention to exclude him.
Because originally four people shared it equally, that is, each person could get 25%, but now it is only half a percent less, which is nothing.
But Zhou Wan obviously planned to get more, and the extra money would naturally be divided from Zhang Zhiwen's side.
But Yan Ling noticed this and took the opportunity to exclude him.
Li Xiaoqing didn't say anything. She was a woman, and with Yan Ling protecting her, what else could she say?
But the atmosphere was obviously a little stiff for a while.
At this time, Zhang Zhiwen spoke: "Senior Brother, I will divide one of the achievements, and leave the rest to Senior Brother Zhou. After all, I am a newbie here, and I don't have much ability. I am not as good as Senior Brother Zhou."
Yan Ling and the others were stunned when they heard Zhang Zhiwen's words.
They didn't expect Zhang Zhiwen to take the initiative to be humble. If it were an ordinary person, they probably wouldn't be like this.
But Zhang Zhiwen knew in his heart that if Zhou Wan was offended because of him, there would be trouble in the future, and he didn't want to cause trouble.
Another thing is that he doesn't want anyone to be a gun user. The worst he can do is make concessions and take less, and more importantly, he should follow them to learn some experience and come back.
"Haha, look, Junior Brother Zhang is still brave."
Yan Ling was the first to break the silence and seemed to appreciate Zhang Zhiwen very much.
There was some uncertainty in Zhou Wan's eyes, but he was naturally quite pleased with Zhang Zhiwen's humility. He couldn't help but nodded and said with a smile: "Junior Brother Zhang, you're welcome. If you need anything from Zhou in the future, just ask."
Li Xiaoqing looked at Zhang Zhiwen a little differently. Although she was a woman, she had experienced a lot of life and death. If she could stand here, how could she be a brainless person?
She thought Zhang Zhiwen was a bit interesting. She was more or less impressed by how calm and calm a newcomer was.
In this way, the team's assignments were finally settled, and then we talked about the mission.
There is not much to say about the tasks. Everyone goes to get the tasks, take down all the tasks that need to be completed in a month, and then turn in the tasks later.
However, Zhang Zhiwen also learned something. It turns out that the medicinal materials from Qishan are also available along the Wuping River. In other words, he does not have to go all the way to some remote and dangerous place to collect medicines. But if he had not joined Yanling, Team, he would probably go all the way to Qishan to collect herbs.
Therefore, he felt that joining Yan Ling's team was still beneficial, and his choice was very wise.
In this way, after everyone reached an agreement, they all went back to their houses to rest and wait for departure the next day.
After Zhang Zhiwen returned to the house, he continued to meditate and practice the determination of immortality.
He has no other martial arts to practice now, and he has almost read the Medicine Sutra, so he has nothing to do but continue to practice the Immortality Determination.
But now that he has a trace of inner strength in his body, he naturally continues to practice, that is, he starts to practice the first level of the key to longevity.
The first-level exercises are similar to those in the general chapter, except that the energy of the meridians that need to be circulated are different. They go through the solar meridian. The so-called solar meridian is on the surface.
It means that this energy travels on the surface of the body, travels between the skin and muscles, and strengthens these places, which is also in line with the purpose of the Longevity Sutra.
Therefore, as the energy circulated, Zhang Zhiwen felt a little itchy and hot all over his body. Although it was very slight, it was as if he had been exposed to the sun. It was numb and numb, but it was quite comfortable.
The Qi energy traveled around the Taiyang Meridian and then returned to the Dantian. Zhang Zhiwen felt that the little internal force in the Dantian seemed to have increased a little, but the increase rate was extremely slow. Zhang Zhiwen felt that if he wanted to practice to the second I'm afraid it won't be possible for a few years to achieve this level of skill.
But there is nothing he can do. He can only make little progress now, but this internal strength is of little use and can only be used to strengthen his body.
However, Zhang Zhiwen has been wandering outside all year round, and his mind has long been very calm. He will just keep fit to keep fit. When he has some money in the future, he will think of ways to learn a more lethal martial arts.
In this way, after the Qi Jin circulates in the meridians seven or seven forty-nine times, a small week is completed.
He opened his eyes and it was already light.
Practicing the Sutra of Immortality indeed made him full of energy even if he didn't sleep all night, even more energetic than sleeping. This made Zhang Zhiwen feel that this technique was not useless.
Today, he was going to complete the mission with Yan Ling and others, so he came to the yard early, and Yan Ling and others also came out one after another.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Yan Ling went out and carried a large basket. It contained daily necessities for the team, such as hatchets for medicine, food, clothes, etc.
It can be seen that this big basket is quite heavy, and it is a bit difficult for a martial arts practitioner like Yan Ling to hold it. When he came to Zhang Zhiwen, he couldn't help but worry a little: "Junior Brother Zhang, this basket is a little heavy, you Be careful."
With that said, he handed the big basket to Zhang Zhiwen.
Zhang Zhiwen nodded and took it carefully, but as soon as he took it, he felt that this thing was not very heavy. Why did it look so heavy?
Thinking of this, he waved his hand and easily carried the large basket on his back.
This scene surprised Yan Ling and others. The contents of this large basket weighed less than a hundred kilograms.
But here with Zhang Zhiwen, it seems like carrying a chicken.
Zhang Zhiwen didn’t look that strong, just a little thicker than Zhou Wan, but his strength was so great that Yan Ling was a little surprised.
