Chapter 54: The oil is exhausted and the lamp is dry, and the first place in the martial arts test is obtained (4k please subscribe)
Yu Que stood on top of the blast furnace and imitated Fang Mulian's method, but made some changes on his own.
The other party repeatedly threw the human-headed ghost chestnut into the molten iron and fried it. When it flew out, it was caught and soaked in fire oil to cool down.
Yu Que had the help of his spiritual consciousness, and he would not be stupid enough not to take advantage of this.
With the help of his spiritual consciousness, he can greatly increase his sensitivity. Although he cannot cover the nearly ten feet wide iron furnace, he can react immediately when the human-headed ghost flies up.
And when it comes to fried ghosts, although he is not as skilled as Fang Mulian, he is still at the threshold. Now that I have been enlightened, I naturally have many feasible ideas in my mind.
Bah!
Yu Que carried the gourd and gourd. When Gui Li was still in the air, he suddenly poured oil on it and hit it into the molten iron.
Wrapped in kerosene, the temperature of the human-headed ghost chestnut drops, and it burns fiercely on the molten iron, turning into a ball of fire, rolling against the molten iron, which is quite magical.
His action was seen by the examinee sitting on the same iron stove. The other candidate's eyes widened and he looked at him fiercely.
Perhaps he felt that Yu Que's method was more impressive and more worry-free than Fang Mulian's.
The other party also picked up the gourd and poured oil directly into the stove.
As a result, there was a pop, and the fire shot into the sky.
The opponent's attack was at the wrong time and with the wrong technique. Not only did the object not push the human-headed ghost chest into the molten iron, but the object carried the kerosene and rushed to his face.
The man screamed, and immediately grabbed his hands and feet, and even touched the iron stove. The kerosene on his body was ignited again, and his whole person turned into a burning man. Gulu rolled off the stove and rolled on the ground.
Unlike Fang Mulian who transformed into a burning man, this guy was unprepared and was immediately burned to pieces, and the pain was so painful that even the family god couldn't call out.
Yu Que only glanced at the other party coldly for a few times, then withdrew his gaze indifferently.
On the iron stove.
When the others saw the consequences of carelessly studying Yu Que, they all had stern expressions on their faces and did not dare to think any more. They honestly followed Fang Mulian's method and began to imitate it.
But even if Fang Mulian's method is used, not everyone among the many candidates present is a clever person, and there are still only a few who succeed.
So during this period, someone had a wrong idea.
They either want to snatch the other people's ghost chestnuts that are being roasted, or they see their own ghost chestnuts burnt and angrily throw the kerosene in front of the other person, intending to destroy the opponent's ghost chestnuts.
Bang!
There was such a person beside Yu Que. After the opponent failed, he first wanted to discuss with Yu Que and let Yu Que cook more ghost chestnuts for him.
When Yu Que ignored him, the man smashed the stove angrily, and then he got angry and kicked the oil drum at Yu Que's hand.
There was just a click and a scream.
Before the opponent's legs even landed on the bucket, his body flew up and hit the ground hard. One of his legs was twisted and bent, which was painful to watch.
Yu Que didn't even look at that person, and he didn't bother to be wary of this group of candidates anymore. He looked at the people standing on the same iron stove with a smile:
"Everyone, I'm doing this. I don't like people watching. Can you go down first?"
As he spoke, he gently knocked on the iron stove with his bare hands.
It was buzzing, and the whole furnace body was clanging.
When the candidates saw it, their expressions changed suddenly, and they didn't dare to say a word. They immediately saluted Yu Que and hurriedly climbed off the blast furnace, forgetting to take down the ghost chestnuts they brought up.
Yu Que then had an iron furnace all to himself, and fished chestnuts from the fire and gold from the molten iron as if the clouds were calm and the wind was gentle.
Soon, he had results.
I saw that his arm was covered with a layer of oil. With his bare hands, he easily touched the molten iron a few times with the help of his spiritual consciousness, and then he found a golden ghost chestnut!
This object was in the shape of a gold ingot, and it was heavy. The moment it appeared, he felt the cat-faced family god in his body suddenly move, expressing hunger and thirst.
"This is indeed delicious ghost food!" Yu Que thought to himself.
Not to mention the mind of the family was moved, even he himself, because he used his brain first and then his body, consumed a lot of energy, and was hungry in his belly.
At this moment, he smelled the alluring aroma of chestnuts from "Golden Yuan Baoli", and he really wanted to swallow it in one bite.
But he held back.
The way ghosts and gods enjoy offerings is different from that of living people. The way ghosts eat chestnuts is probably not by chewing them. If you swallow it randomly, you will most likely be poisoned, and you may even "die from swallowing gold" and die.
Holding a gold ingot chestnut, Yu Que was full of energy. He picked up the ghost chestnuts left by other candidates on the stove and continued to cook them.
Having had a successful experience, he used it again and became familiar with it.
In the meantime, he raised his eyes and looked towards where Fang Mulian was, wanting to see if the other party had finished refining the golden ingot chestnut.
If this person finishes practicing first, the other person will be the top in this martial arts test.
Although the first place in the martial arts examination is not as famous as the first place in the literary examination due to various reasons, it is also the first place in one subject!
If Fang Mulian can get this first place, not to mention that he is basically admitted to the county school, and the other party has become a county student by virtue of his performance in the martial arts examination, he can directly abandon Zheng Laohei and join Liandu as an exception. In the master's guild, seek a better master again.
Yu Que planned that if Fang Mulian had finished the exam and still didn't know this, he would go with Qian Huazhen to find him, pull him out of Old Zheng's nigger shop, and form a good relationship.
But when he took a closer look at Fang Mulian's side, the scene made him a little surprised.
Seeing the examiner Lu Tiehua, she suddenly jumped onto the iron stove and pinched Fang Mulian, not letting her continue to cook the last ghost chestnut.
He allowed the ghost chestnut, whose shell had been peeled off, to tumble in the molten iron and finally turn into a streak of charred smoke.
At this moment, Fang Mulian already had two gold ingot chestnuts in his hand, and he only had to fish out the last one before he could successfully pass the level!
Not only Fang Mulian was shocked by the examiner's behavior, but the other candidates around, especially those who were watching the academic performance, were whispering:
"Good guy, did this big brother offend someone? Even the examiner came out to stop him."
"Hey, it's not necessarily because I offended someone. Maybe it's just that the guy surnamed Lu has been bribed and decided to be the first in the martial arts exam, and he doesn't want the first place to be taken away by others."
Fang Mulian stood stunned on the iron stove. When he saw that the last ghost chestnut was completely hopeless, he looked so anxious that he almost cried.
Facing Lu Tiehua, Fang Mulian did not dare to resist. With a look of crying on his face, he lowered his eyebrows and just begged: "Examiner, please let me go, I still have to take the exam."
Examiner Lu Tiehua listened to Fang Mulian's cries and begged. The man's cold and sneer expression changed, his brows furrowed, hesitant and unbearable.
But this person still suddenly spoke:
"You were also eliminated."
"What?!" Fang Mulian's eyes widened, suspecting that she heard wrongly.
Suddenly there was a burst of noise all around, and everyone thought they heard wrongly: "What's going on!"
Including Yu Que on another blast furnace not far away, he heard it from a distance and frowned, beginning to wonder if Fang Mulian had really offended someone.
"Quiet!"
But the next moment, the examiner Lu Tiehua suddenly shouted, and the other party let go of Fang Mulian, and said with a kind tone:
"Boy, who did you study under, and where did you learn this training technique?"
Fang Mulian murmured, but his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly moved out of Zheng Laohei, hoping that he could hug him and make the examiner change his mind about eliminating him:
"It's Master Zheng Laohei from the county!"
When the clinker examiner Lu Tiehua heard this, her eyes were startled, and then she suddenly showed a look of surprise. Her expression became even more regretful and complicated.
The man sneered and said, "I'm not afraid of offending anyone. I'm going to come here today to give you a good talk and remind you guys."
Lu Tiehua pointed at Fang Mulian and said:
"Although your alchemy skills come from a somewhat wild background, in terms of fire magic alone, most of the serious ninth-grade alchemists in the alchemist guild are not as good as you. Just relying on this skill, you can If you go to the Refiner's Guild for an assessment, the Refiner's Guild will most likely admit you."
These words made the people who were originally shocked become an uproar again.
Fang Mulian himself was also stunned.
Yu Que on the side looked strange when he saw this.
He muttered secretly: "I can get such a high evaluation from the county school examiner. No wonder I feel that even if I have inheritance and the help of spiritual consciousness, I am still not as good as Brother Fang when it comes to fried ghosts."
< br>
It seems that this matter is not because of his incompetence, but because Fang Mulian is too good and has been immersed in it for a long time!
"Judging from the content of your first test that you were able to pass this level, you also have some talent in developing your understanding."
Lu Tiehua said with a smile: "Hey, when I thought about this test question, I asked an old guy from the Master Refiner's Guild to try it. The other person's speed in solving the question was not as fast as yours."
He patted Fang Mulian with his big hand and sighed: "You are really a talent!
Bold and careful, with a tenacious temperament. If possible, I really want to accept you as my disciple. ”
Fang Mulian's eyes were stunned and his face was dark and red. He said embarrassedly:
"Thank you, examiner. Actually, Master Zheng has been calling me stupid."
When Lu Tiehua heard this, the smile on her face immediately turned cold, and she cursed: "This piece of shit is totally misleading people.
Also, you are too honest. If you are really a fool, how can you be a training apprentice? ”
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
These words made Fang Mulian stunned again, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Others in the audience nodded in agreement.
Someone laughed and shouted: "Brother, don't belittle yourself. Anyone who can be a training apprentice is either rich or extremely talented."
These words entered Fang Mulian's ears, making him even more uneasy.
And when he looked at the attitude of the examiner in front of him, his heart skipped a beat. The more the examiner praised him now, the more he felt that the examiner had bad news to tell him.
Sure enough, Lu Tiehua patted Fang Mulian in front of everyone and sighed again:
"It's a pity, it's a pity that your origins have been burned dry, your lifespan has been ruined, your aura is strong and weak, and you have been almost exhausted by that old thing."
The man cursed again: "What a shame, if I catch Zheng Laohei next time, I will have to skin him."
Fang Mulian froze, and the candidates around him also whispered to each other.
Everyone present had passed the Literary Examination, and they were all from the same cultural background. They all had a solid foundation in immortality, so they naturally understood what Lu Tiehua meant.
"Hiss! The essence is burned out, and the appearance is strong and weak? Doesn't it mean that you won't be able to live for a few years?"
"Really? It doesn't look like it."
"Tsk, he has exhausted his body at such a young age. Not to mention supporting the family, I'm afraid he will be out of shape in a few years. He will be worse than those white-haired candidates. No wonder the examiner didn't want him."
< br>
Yu Que watched, his heart sinking.
Others were still doubting the truth of what Lu Tiehua said, but he believed it subconsciously.
Because he only worked in Zheng Laohei's shop for more than a month, and it took him nearly three months to recover, and he relied on the power of spiritual consciousness. And that Fang Mulian was struggling in the paper-made ghost shop. Four or five years!
As for Fang Mulian himself, he is a student of alchemy, and he knows very clearly about the issue of the oil running out and the lamp drying up.
The boy's face instantly turned pale, and he kept saying: "No, it's impossible. Every day my mother boils cow's and goat's milk for me to keep me healthy...
Look at me, I'm much stronger! ”
Fang Mulian put a smile on her face and patted her strong chest with a bang, showing that she was not exhausted at all.
The clinker Lu Tiehua looked at him with more and more pity and pity.
"You don't believe it, right?" Lu Tiehua sighed, "You don't have spiritual consciousness, so it's normal to see clearly. Then I'll let you see it with your own eyes!"
There was a click, and before everyone could react, Lu Tiehua suddenly stretched out her palm and lightly scratched Fang Mulian's left arm with her nails.
Like a lotus root being torn apart, Fang Mulian's left arm was broken from the middle, exposing the tendons and bones, but not even a drop of blood was shed during the whole process.
Examiner Lu Tiehua took Fang Mulian's arm, looked through it carefully, and muttered: "What the fuck, the situation is more serious than I thought."
The others in the audience, as well as Yu Que, only heard what the other party said and didn't understand why.
But they could see that Fang Mulian's already pale face was now as pale as paper, lifeless, his eyes were dull, and he even looked at his broken arm in despair.
Finally, the examiner Lu Tiehua held the opponent's arm and gestured to the people on the left and right sides of the stove and below: "You can see clearly. Don't be tricked by others in the future."
hiss!
Fang Mulian's arm bones were covered with holes, and the bone marrow inside was empty, as if it had been sucked dry or burnt. It was black and there was no trace of bone marrow.
Everyone who saw this scene suddenly took a breath: "The bone marrow has been squeezed dry!"
“This damn thing, it’s not that I don’t have a few more years left to live, I’m afraid I won’t survive this year.”
Yu Que also stared blankly at Fang Mulian's bone marrow, and the thought suddenly came to his mind.
Fang Mulian once proudly said that no one could stay under Zheng Laohei for four or five years, and he was the first!
"I don't believe it." Fang Mulian said hoarsely, squeezing out the sound from her throat.
Examiner Lu Tiehua sneered, and then gently opened Fang Mulian's other arm, and opened the bones. The inside was also hollow and black, supported entirely by a ghostly aura.
"Get it, kid."
The other party said coldly: "It's not that I have to stop you from completing the martial arts test, but that you have consumed too much energy today. If you dare to get the third ghost chestnut, you will definitely die!"
After saying this, the man first closed Fang Mulian's right arm again, then rubbed a layer of oil from his body, glued it to Mulian's left arm, and rubbed it off from nowhere. A mud ball popped into the mouth of Fang Mulian, who was in a daze.
Lu Tiehua explained:
"I'll resign immediately when I get back, refine two golden ingot chestnuts, take a good rest, and don't use the family spirit from now on. Maybe I can still live for a few more years."
As soon as the words fell, the examiner grabbed Fang Mulian and handed her to the government officials, asking them to take Fang Mulian out of the examination room.
Unlike the candidates who were eliminated before, Fang Mulian seemed to be hysterical. He just clutched the two gold ingots tightly, his eyes were dazed, his face seemed to be smiling and crying, but he was speechless.
He was dumbfounded, his feet hanging to the ground, and he was dragged stiffly out of the examination room by the government officials like they were dragging a corpse, and the limelight disappeared for a while.
After he left, there was silence at the examination site.
After a few breaths, the crowd burst into unprecedented discussions.
"What a sin!"
Some people kept shaking their heads and sighing, pretending to be sad and making comments.
Yu Que stood alone on the iron stove, also stunned.
Suddenly, he came back to his senses, flicked his sleeves, took out the contents of the molten iron, and held them in his hands.
I saw only three things, yellow and golden, which were really beautiful.
It turned out that his chestnuts were fully ripe and all his gold coins were out.
At this time, there was a loud shout not far away:
"Alas, Brother Yu, you are still one step ahead of me. I haven't concocted the third one yet... It seems that the top spot in the martial arts test is yours again!"
It's the voice of Qian Hua Zhen, and the other party can also practice it. After knowing the method of solving the problem, it is natural to make the ghost chestnut with both hands. However, this person will be slow in the end.
Oops!
The shouts spread, and the people in the examination room who had just calmed down started making noise again, and they couldn't help but look at Yu Que.
Obviously, the first place in the second level of the county examination appeared, and it was Yu Que!
It was just that Yu Que stood alone on the iron stove. He looked at the three gold ingot chestnuts in his hand, and for a moment he didn't know whether to be happy or sigh...
