"Are you Master Ji's disciple?" Although the man's image was much different from that of Lin Haoming, he didn't look down on Lin Haoming and instead asked.
Lin Haoming put down the hatchet and said, "No, I'm just doing odd jobs for Mr. Ji temporarily!"
"Lin Haoming, keep working. As for the boys outside, they are going back and forth from where they are. Old guy, I don't have time to see you, a junior like you." At this moment, Ji Lao's voice came out from the wooden house, and he seemed not to care about the visitor. Not very friendly.
"Uncle Ji, Master..."
"If your master wants to see me, let him come by himself!" Mr. Ji interrupted the man again and issued an eviction order.
The man in brocade clothes did not leave. Instead, he took out a jade slip from his arms and said respectfully: "Uncle, the master knows that you may not be willing to leave, so he asked me to bring this slip. I believe that after reading it, the master will Agreeing with what he meant, the master also explained before he asked me to come, "Among the four of us, the third junior brother actually has the highest qualifications. But why is it that only the eldest senior brother has achieved Tianhe and is still ranked as the Eastern King? It shows that the qualifications are not as good as the destiny." In this case, why don't you seek destiny? 'Master, he is going to snatch a little bit of destiny with you this time."
"Hehe, your master has become possessed. Secrets are opportunities. If you can snatch them at will, you can still call them secrets. If you don't look at them, go back!" Mr. Ji unexpectedly refused again.
"Uncle, this is the first time that Master has sent me to do something. If I can't handle this matter well, I have no way to go back and explain! Uncle, since I was quite popular with you when I was a kid, don't be embarrassed. How am I?" The man in brocade suddenly started acting coquettishly.
"Hey, since it's not easy for you to go back and explain, it's a good thing. Have you seen that kid on the side? His name is Lin Haoming. Since you won't go, just follow him and do odd jobs here!" Mr. Ji said impatiently.
"Uncle Master..."
"Stop shouting, Lin Haoming, the fire of Snake Geng is about to go out, what fun is there!" Mr. Ji seemed to care about Snake Geng far more than the things at hand.
"Master uncle, master uncle..."
Ever since Mr. Ji said these words, no matter what the man in brocade said, he would not reply, as if he had not heard anything.
"Young Master, what should we do?" Seeing the man in brocade sigh, the maid in white asked worriedly.
"What should I do? Didn't you hear that my uncle asked me to stay and do odd jobs?" said the man in brocade clothes.
"Ah!" The two maids exclaimed at the same time after hearing this.
Lin Haoming, who was adding firewood, looked at the man in brocade clothes with some surprise at this time. Mr. Ji's words before seemed to be a joke. Could it be that this boy had really made up his mind.
"You go back first, find a place to rest, and wait for me to send you a message!" said the man in brocade clothes.
"Young Master, how is this possible!" The maid in black looked at Lin Haoming's dirty look, and then at her own young master, she really didn't want him to suffer the same fate.
"What are you talking about? Don't you want to listen to me? Go find a place and wait!" the man in brocade clothes urged.
Seeing that the young master was so determined, the two maids could only nod helplessly, and then the Tianpeng speedster flew away.
As soon as the speeding car left, the man in brocade walked up to Lin Haoming with a smile, cupped his hands towards Lin Haoming and said: "Haha, this is Brother Lin, my brother Liu Tiangeng, if you need anything, just ask me!"
Lin Haoming felt a little bit dumbfounded when he heard the somewhat vulgar name of this man in brocade clothes and his apologetic look.
At this time, Mr. Ji followed: "Since he is willing to stay, let him work with you. You can tell him how I told you!"
"Yes, Mr. Ji!" After hearing this, Lin Haoming knew that this time Mr. Ji really wanted to polish the kid in front of him. In this case, Lin Haoming simply pointed to the hatchet beside him and said, "Did you see it? Split firewood!"
"Okay!" Liu Tiangeng immediately agreed to Lin Haoming's instructions, then grabbed the hatchet with one hand and sucked it into his hand.
When Lin Haoming saw it, he immediately followed suit and said, "Brother Liu! According to the rules here, Mr. Ji, you are not allowed to use any magic power, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!"
Although Lin Haoming himself has not tasted what it feels like to relax his muscles and bones, it is definitely much more painful than the hardships he encountered during this period. It is natural not to touch it if it is not necessary.
Liu Tiangeng frowned slightly after hearing this, then rolled up his sleeves and started chopping firewood.
Liu Tiangeng's cultivation level is actually similar to that of Lin Haoming, but when it comes to chopping firewood, he is much worse than Lin Haoming. Obviously, his physical toughness is much worse than Lin Haoming's, let alone his strength.
It took him a while to split a piece of wood crookedly. Lin Haoming saw that the firewood was getting less and less, and he was afraid that it would be too late to burn it. He sighed helplessly and asked Liu Tiangeng to climb up the ladder and stir the snake soup. Take the hatchet and chop the firewood.
Looking at Lin Haoming, he chopped up a pile in three strokes, five divided by two, Liu Tiangeng was somewhat impressed this time and said: "Brother Lin is really good at it."
Lin Haoming could only laugh at this. Although he didn't know Ji Lao's intentions, since this guy stayed, Ji Lao would definitely not give him a comfortable life.
Not long after, the snake soup was ready, and Mr. Ji walked out leisurely.
When Liu Tiangeng saw him, he immediately went over to greet him with a smile. As a result, Mr. Ji rolled his eyes at him and said, "You can't even chop firewood. Is it because your master doesn't know how to teach you, or are you a waste yourself?"
Being scolded by Mr. Ji like this, Liu Tiangeng couldn't answer. He could only watch Mr. Ji jump into the pot and eat the snake soup in his own way.
"Lin Haoming, starting today, you don't have to carry water. You will be responsible for carrying water from now on. It's really useless!" Ji Lao finished eating, shook his head, and returned to the wooden house while giving instructions, regardless of Liu Tiangeng.
Seeing this, Lin Haoming could only hand the bucket to Liu Tiangeng and told him that he must finish picking up the water in the big bucket today, otherwise he would bear the consequences.
Because he didn't need to carry water, Lin Haoming felt at ease today. However, he had been busy and suddenly felt at ease, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
After washing the pot and putting it back in the house, Lin Haoming took out the medicinal wine made from some kind of centipede that Mr. Ji had given him before and took a sip to absorb the power of the wine.
By the time half a kilogram of wine was gone, it was already dark, and Liu Tiangeng had only made two trips back and forth. He didn’t know when he would come back for the third time. As for the water in the big wooden barrel, it was only less than a quarter. Look at the sky. I'm afraid he won't be finished until dawn.
At this moment, Lin Haoming suddenly heard Mr. Ji saying, "Come to my house!"
Since arriving here, Lin Haoming has never been to the wooden house where Ji Lao lives. This sudden order made Lin Haoming vaguely feel that with the arrival of Liu Tiangeng and his previous performance, perhaps Ji Lao's training on him would have to enter. It's the next stage.
