Sun Chu aimed at the target through the gap in the fabric of the hood, then pulled off the crossbow and shot an arrow into the Liao horse's hind leg.
The Liao horse man stood up, but his hind legs could not bear the strength and he fell down heavily.
Sun Chu immediately rushed out from the mound where she was hiding, and killed the fallen Liao soldiers with several swords. She wiped the blood and dirt from her face, looked around, and saw a large group of Liao cavalry retreating.
There was a cheer.
Before she could recover from the fight, the captain found her, looked her up and down, and asked, "Are she injured?"
"No!"
"Very good, you are lucky! Now go back and pack your luggage and go to Qingming. If you can become a Taoist master, you will be on the same level as me when you come back."
Until he boarded the flying boat and looked at the five thousand colleagues traveling with him, Sun Chu was still in a daze.
She was originally an ordinary Taoist soldier from the Taichu Palace. After fighting for several years, she finally completed her body, but she never had the luxury of hoping for a Taoist foundation. At that time, the high cultivator of the Taichu Palace had already seen her luck and concluded that there was no hope of a Taoist foundation in this life.
However, she had a father, brother and a large family of relatives to support, so as the most talented person in the family, she chose to become a Taoist soldier and embarked on the battlefield.
By fighting for the Taichu Palace, you can not only support your family, but also provide opportunities for future generations. If you die on the battlefield, the pension will be generous enough to allow your family to live without worries for the rest of their lives.
The flying boat arrived at Qingming a few days later. Sun Chu disembarked with a group of Taoist soldiers, and was immediately pulled into the mine to polish his Taoist heart.
Sun Chu was still a little confused until someone pushed the tool into her hand. She couldn't figure out why mining could sharpen the Taoist heart, but years of fighting on the battlefield had developed her habit of obeying orders absolutely, so she took the tool and
Focus on mining.
As she dug, she felt that this mine was a little different from mines in other places.
The mine tunnels here are exceptionally wide, and the support structure is meticulously made. From time to time, Daoji monks will patrol back and forth, carefully recording everything. Once, a Daoji monk stood behind Sun Chu for half an hour, recording Sun Chu non-stop.
Chu even suspected that he even remembered how high he lifted his mining pick and what route he followed to dig.
There was no sun or moon underground, so after working like this for five or six hours, she was so tired that her thinking was a little slow. At this time, the bell rang, and another group of people came to the well to replace Sun Chu and other Taoist soldiers.
When the two parties handed over, Sun Chu found that these people were quite gorgeous in their clothes, and some of them were even more expensive than she dared to imagine. These people were obviously either rich or noble, and perhaps some of them came from aristocratic families.
Why do they want to mine underground? Is there really something magical about this mine, and mining for a long time can improve your mood?
When she returned to the ground, she found that the sky was slightly bright and it was already early morning.
The Taoist soldiers were brought to the cafeteria, and meals had been prepared early. After breakfast, the monks took Sun Chu and others to the nearby barracks to rest. Every day, they had a full hour to sleep.
There is a Datong bunk in the barracks, and it has three floors, and there is no distinction between men and women. Before entering the barracks, a monk cast a cleansing technique on them, and then let them go into the room to rest. All the Taoist soldiers did not complain, and slept together in their clothes.
, the conditions on the battlefield are much more difficult than here.
At least Qingming Barracks is full of spiritual energy, and the food they eat is all spiritual rice and spiritual vegetables. In the Northern Mountain Gate, it takes three to five days to have a spiritual meal, so everyone has nothing to complain about.
Sun Chu was very tired at this time and fell asleep.
Just as she fell asleep, she suddenly stood up and found herself in another world.
A monk came over with the list and asked: "Taoist Sun Chu?"
"It's me."
"Okay, come with me."
Soon Sun Chu was taken to a large hall. There were hundreds of tables and chairs in the hall. Many of the tables and chairs were already occupied by people. Everyone was busy working on their own, and the whole hall was silent.
The monk led Sun Chu to an empty seat, ordered her to sit down, and then placed a stack of jade paper in front of her and asked her to copy the information.
Some of the materials distributed were historical books, and some were various medicinal classics, alchemy classics, records of physical properties, etc. Although she knew nothing about these materials, for some reason, she couldn't help but think while copying them, so she copied them.
Extremely exhausting.
An entire hour passed, and only half of the information was copied. Then she woke up when she heard the sound of a bell.
Sun Chu opened her eyes and saw that she was obviously lying in the barracks, but what she had just dreamed about was so vivid that it didn't look like she was dreaming. She was copying books during the whole sleeping process, which made her mentally exhausted, but her body was indeed asleep.
Enough, my physical strength has returned to its peak.
All the Taoist soldiers were similar to her, each one was full of physical strength but weak in spirit.
After getting up, the Taoist soldiers went down the mine again and dug for another six hours. They were exhausted. Then they had to eat and go back to their rooms to rest. Sun Chu was exhausted both physically and mentally at this time, and fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she came to that magical world again.
Yesterday's monk came over with the list, called her and hundreds of other Taoist soldiers, went to a stone quarry, and then taught her the mental skills. He picked up a stone, rubbed it a few times, and it turned into a stone.
It became a flying sword without jaws.
"This is a sample. I have told you the production method and all the data. Just follow the sample. Once you make a qualified flying sword, put it on the shelf over there. Today, you will have an hour to polish your xinxing. Okay, let's start now.
!”
Sun Chu picked up a stone, tried to inject the true meaning of the sword according to her mental method, and then adjusted the shape. The resulting flying sword was crooked. She made repeated modifications until she made the first qualified flying sword after a stick of incense. Other Taoist soldiers
The progress of her companions is similar to hers.
At this time, the monk brought in another group of people, and Sun Chu recognized that several of them seemed to be children of large families who were mining together. They were also taught how to make flying swords, and then joined in the work.
Sun Chu gradually became more proficient, and by the time the bell rang, she had already made seven flying swords.
Sun Chu opened her eyes and found that she was still lying on the bed. What happened in her dream seemed to be real. She struggled to get up and yawned. Making flying swords in her dream was not easy at all.
The monks from Qingming came in to wake everyone up, and then went to eat and go to the mines as usual. In this way, the days passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye it was already January.
Only then did someone bring Sun Chu and others out of the mine, let them bathe and change clothes, and prepare to try to cast the foundation.
Is this about to start? But he has not prepared anything yet. Sun Chu is a little confused.
When she arrived at the school, Sun Chu met some other Taoist soldiers who had come with her. After chatting with her, she found out that they had spent the past month polishing their minds in the spiritual field, experiencing the wonders of the germination of all things, and going to a magical place when sleeping.
Create a flying sword in the world.
When everyone gathered and handed out the foundation-making information, Sun Chu suddenly discovered that what he wanted to forge was actually the flying sword he had been forging every night!
After getting familiar with the information, a magical power suddenly came, and Sun Chu actually sensed her own Taoist foundation! After a moment, all living beings disappeared, and Sun Chu was still immersed in the magical feeling. At that moment, she cast
Six flying swords.
After activating sentient beings for two more moments in this way, the foundation casting officially begins.
With the experience of working day and night for the past month, Sun Chu was already extremely familiar with this kind of flying sword, and finally successfully cast the Tao Foundation, a total of five flying swords.
After the Dao Foundation is cast, it is time to return to the northern mountain gate. The five thousand casts that came when they came have already had one thousand more Dao Foundation monks when they returned.
Although the Dao Foundation forged by most people is the most common flying sword, after training in the use of flying swords, Sun Chu already knows that this Dao Foundation has strong practical capabilities and is most suitable for battlefield battles.
The airship slowly lifted off and returned to the north. Sun Chu stood on the side of the ship and watched the magnificent country below gradually shrink and even disappear. In the past month, everything had been like a dream.
It's just that she always has a question in her heart, but she doesn't dare to tell anyone. After all, the one who presides over Qing Ming is the most outstanding disciple in the palace in the past hundred years, a peerless genius who achieved Dharma before the age of eighteen. She is the only one
How dare you question this, a little Taoist soldier?
But that question always lingered like a ghost, and she still couldn't help but think about it: during that month underground, was it really about polishing one's mind, rather than just mining?
Chapter completed!
