Chapter 5: Eat a Full Meal
Gu Luosheng has clearly realized that it is impossible to make further progress by farming alone.
Digging for food in the soil all the time is not only extremely hard and tiring, but also your life is completely controlled by others.
The land belongs to the village chief. If others want you to live, you live, and if they want you to die, you die.
Gu Luosheng simply cannot accept this situation and instinctively wants to find a way out for himself.
Cultivation and mastering power are undoubtedly the most direct methods.
This is also the only method Gu Luosheng can see!
Even if he fights his life, he will not hesitate.
He holds the book of reincarnation in his hand, so how can he be afraid of death?
Just face the danger. Even if he dies, he can gain experience. The next time he encounters the same death situation, he can face it calmly and find the only chance of survival.
So.
Gu Luosheng came to the village chief's house.
Zhu Village is not small in scale, with about nearly a thousand people, a large number of fertile fields and ponds.
After walking for a long time, Gu Luosheng finally came to the village chief's house in the center.
As the leader of Zhu Village, the village chief's residence is much more majestic, all built with dark green iron bamboo.
It is said that this kind of bamboo is impervious to water and fire, and is hard to be damaged by swords and knives. It takes an adult a day to cut it.
A house built with this kind of bamboo is not much different from a fortress paved with fine bricks and stones.
Extremely safe!
Outside the bamboo building, there were two guards standing. One of the guards recognized Gu Luosheng and said lightly: "Gu Luosheng? The tree next to it, hit it with all your strength, and you will pass if there is a fist mark."
Gu Luosheng looked along the line of sight and found an ancient tree that several people could not hug together.
There were potholes and fist marks everywhere on it. It seemed that it had always been a test prop for the hunting team.
One of the most exaggerated ones was sunken three inches, which was scary to look at.
Three inches is about ten centimeters in modern units, which is equivalent to a whole fist punched in.
If this hits a person...
Gu Luosheng did not use his internal energy, and tentatively punched a few times, but the ancient tree did not move at all.
He probably knew the situation, took a deep breath, and mobilized his internal energy.
Ten strands of silk-thin internal energy converged in the palm of the fist, and the burning sensation was intense.
"Bang!"
A punch hit hard, and the bark that had just been indestructible suddenly became rotten wood, and was directly crushed and sunk in.
However, this kind of pleasure only lasted for a moment, and the fist immediately stopped sinking.
The tyrannical force rebounded from the tree trunk, and the momentum was instantly eliminated without a trace.
Gu Luosheng raised his fist and took a look. He found that although he left a fist mark, it was very shallow, probably only two or three points thick.
"You can have a sense of energy and leave a fist mark after practicing for a year. You passed, follow me."
The guard said, turning around and walking towards the side yard.
"Yes!"
Gu Luosheng hurriedly followed.
The side yard was an ordinary building, very simple, but after the door was opened, there were seven or eight kinds of weapons lined up, longbows, spears, long swords, horizontal swords, hammers, sticks...
Arsenal?
The guard who spoke was a middle-aged man named Wang Tong. He sat on a wooden chair with a big horse and a golden sword. He glanced at Gu Luosheng and said after a while: "The task of the hunting team is to hunt down the monsters and evil spirits that threaten the village, which requires actual combat ability."
"The village chief has no intention of letting you die, so you have a year to practice swordsmanship before the official task! The rule set by the village chief is that you will be provided with food and drink within a year, and you only need to practice. After a year, we will see the actual performance!"
"You kid choose a sword and practice well, otherwise you can't blame others if you die!"
"I know, I will practice hard and repay the village chief!"
Gu Luosheng clasped his fists.
Obviously, although there are many weapons here, newcomers only have the option of horizontal sword, which is easy to train.
"Very good, go and choose a sword, and then I will teach you the sword method of beheading monsters."
Wang Tong nodded, which was quite reasonable.
Gu Luosheng walked to the weapon rack, and didn't know how to choose, so he tried them one by one.
"It doesn't feel right..."
"Too heavy..."
Soon, Gu Luosheng chose a weapon that was relatively handy based on his feeling.
He was only 13 years old and had not grown up yet, so the knife he chose was relatively short, which was convenient for him to use.
Wang Tong didn't care what knife Gu Luosheng chose, maybe it was not important to him.
In short, he just shouted, took Gu Luosheng to the open space, and then began to demonstrate the knife skills.
"The offensive thinking against people and beasts is completely different, so the knife skills are also very different."
"The sword technique for beheading monsters is a pure sword technique for beasts, striving to be simple and direct, and one-hit kill."
"A person can be killed with one sword, but monsters are often tenacious and can survive if they are cut in half. The focus of the attack must be on the head, heart and other vital parts, either chopping and beheading with great force, or piercing through with one point!"
"The sword technique for beheading monsters is the former, and each blow is powerful and heavy, aiming to cut in two!"
Wang Tong demonstrated, and his movements were exactly the same as Wang Yue's style, fierce and fast!
"Write down the movements and practice accordingly!"
After a day of practice, with Wang Tong constantly correcting the movements, the so-called demon-slaying sword technique gradually took shape in Gu Luosheng's mind. Unfortunately, it was just a copycat and was not very successful.
Evening.
Wang Tong suddenly said, "That's all for today. Let's go to the cafeteria for lunch."
"Yes..."
Gu Luosheng nodded weakly.
There was no lunch at noon. After practicing until now, he suspected that Wang Tong was trying to kill him.
The cafeteria was at the outermost edge of the village, with a training ground and a pond next to it.
At this time, smoke was billowing and people were talking.
There are more than a thousand people in the village, and the hunting team also has 20 to 30 members. In addition, the appetite for cultivation is amazing, so a large number of chefs are needed to cook. The canteen looks very lively.
"Captain Wang Tong, it's so late, it seems there is a newcomer?"
A fat man came out with a spatula and said.
"Yes, give him a sign."
Wang Tong nodded, "A farmer can cultivate internal energy in a year, which is quite something."
"Hehe, at most two or three layers." The fat chef reached into his pocket and took out an iron plate, scratched it with his nails a few times, and threw it directly to Gu Luosheng.
Gu Luosheng subconsciously caught it, but an amazing force was transmitted from the small iron plate.
"Dengdengdeng!"
His face changed drastically, and he quickly used his internal energy to resist. Even so, he retreated three steps in succession before stopping.
"Three steps, it seems that there is still strength left. It's really okay. Let's serve!"
The fat chef knocked on the table with a spatula, turned around and continued to pick up the big pot to cook, and various ingredients rolled.
Wang Tong turned around and said, "You will come here to eat from now on, two meals a day, no waiting after the time. Eat as much as you want, haha, being able to eat is also a talent."
Bang!
With just one sentence, the fat chef has brought the dishes. There is no fragrance, but the portion is full.
Without waiting for Gu Luosheng to say anything, Wang Tong picked up a large bowl of rice and buried his head in eating.
"..."
Gu Luosheng's stomach was also drumming, and he was so hungry that he hurried to get a large bowl of rice and started eating.
Compared with the embarrassment of the Gu family, the hunting team canteen is already extremely rich.
There is plenty of oil and water, and there are side dishes similar to potatoes, which are very addictive and satisfying to eat.
In this life, he has eaten plain rice for thirteen years, let alone meat, and most of the time there are no vegetables.
This kind of terrible living environment, even if he originally had a good talent, has been almost destroyed.
"Dangdangdang!"
The chopsticks kept making sounds, and Gu Luosheng was wolfing down, finishing a large bowl in minutes.
