Chapter 231
Cheng Hui has a very good impression of a veteran who defended his country.
During the conversation with Cheng Hui, Brother Li also revealed a lot of things about the bloody battlefield to him.
Since he was from a lower social class and had not been exposed to many things, he had limited things to say. However, just this common sense alone benefited Cheng Hui a lot.
At least he knew that the existence of these cultivators was no secret, and that the attitudes of the countries on the continent towards them were also contradictory. Some people welcomed them, but others were extremely disgusted with their existence.
This is not difficult to understand. After all, there are good and bad people in the group of cultivators, and...how to say it, Cheng Hui comes from a world where everyone is equal, and he is used to abiding by the law. Even after coming to the world of cultivation and seeing blood on his hands, he is still not used to the people here fighting and killing each other at every turn.
Of course, he was well aware that different worlds had different rules, but whenever he saw those cultivators being arrogant and looking down on ordinary mortals, he still felt very unhappy.
Will cultivators who are used to treating mortals as ants change their attitude when they come to this magic-forbidden world?
You're overthinking it...
Even if they can't use magic, these people still have some martial arts skills - at most they can't use spiritual power and can't produce various effects, but they still have basic attack power.
For a cultivator like this, how could you ask him to treat these ordinary mortal soldiers as people of equal status? Is it possible?
Not to mention that there are many demon cultivators mixed in. Here they cannot use slaughter to improve their cultivation or magic, which makes them much less dangerous. After all, no one wants to do something that has no gain, but this does not mean that they will not kill people.
It would be even worse if there were some psychopathic demon cultivator... In short, the status of cultivators in this world is very precarious.
Moreover, Cheng Hui discovered one thing from Brother Li, that is, these cultivators seemed very happy to serve in various countries and actually participate in the court.
This seemed a bit outrageous to him. He didn't think these people would do something meaningless.
Unfortunately, Brother Li didn’t know much about the situation in this regard, so he could only look for information elsewhere.
Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Cheng Hui was awakened by the sound of a gong coming from outside the village.
Hearing the noise coming from next door, he quickly got up and followed him out. Brother Li didn't even bother to open the door and just climbed over the wall to get out. Cheng Hui hurriedly followed.
The two men arrived at the entrance of the village, where the villagers gathered together and heard shrill cries from inside.
"What's going on?"
Seeing Brother Li appear, the villagers quickly made way for him. Cheng Hui followed him in and saw a man with blood on his stomach being held by a woman. He was breathing more than breathing in.
The woman cried miserably, and the people around her were also in a panic.
Someone came forward to explain to Brother Li, and Cheng Hui then realized that the man got up early and went up the mountain to pick mountain products. Unexpectedly, he encountered a wild boar and was pushed off the cliff. Thanks to his good luck, he was stopped by a few small branches and happened to meet villagers who went up the mountain to chop firewood, so he was carried down.
Unfortunately, his injuries were extremely serious and it seemed that he could not be saved, so his wife cried so sadly.
"Here he comes, the doctor is here."
An old man was dragged over panting, carrying a medicine box on his back. He was pushed in front of the man before he could even catch his breath.
The old man took one look and said, "There's no hope."
Cheng Hui: ...
Is it so straightforward?
The woman cried even louder, choking and begging, "Master Doctor, please...save my master..."
The old man sighed, "It's not that I didn't want to save him, but he was too badly injured. On the surface, he only had some minor injuries, but in reality, his internal organs were shattered. No matter how powerful I am, I can't put his internal organs back together through his belly..."
The woman burst into tears, and the people around her couldn't bear to watch. But in this remote mountain village, it was a blessing to have a doctor. If even the doctor said that she couldn't be saved, who else could do anything?
Brother Li couldn't help but glance at Cheng Hui, then smiled bitterly in his heart. What was he thinking? He knew that people from other worlds had some magical items, but those were so precious, how could they be used on a stranger villager...
Uh-huh?
Brother Li’s eyes widened and his jaw almost dropped to the ground in surprise.
What did he see?
He actually saw Cheng Hui take out a small porcelain bottle. As soon as the bottle was opened, a strange fragrance instantly emanated. Just the smell made him feel refreshed.
He actually took out the magic medicine?
Brother Li was so shocked that he could hardly control his expression. He stared blankly as Cheng Hui stuffed a pill the size of a fingernail into the mouth of the seriously injured man.
The woman was hugging the man in agony and didn't notice Cheng Hui's actions at all. When she reacted, she looked up at him blankly, and saw Brother Li slap his thigh: "Why are you still in a daze? Hurry and find some water so that Daniu can swallow the magic medicine!"
"Oh, here it comes..." Someone cleverly ran to a nearby villager's house and brought a bowl of water for Da Niu to drink.
The woman's reaction was a little slow. She looked down at her husband blankly and saw that the man who was originally vomiting blood, his pale face turned rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Even the wounds on his body began to grow granulation tissue and healed in just a few breaths!
The people around them suddenly let out a huge exclamation, and the woman cried with joy after her husband opened his eyes, choking with sobs and unable to speak.
"What happened? Madam...why are you crying?" Da Niu said in a daze.
"Okay, Da Niu is fine!" a villager said excitedly.
The improvement of Da Niu was visible to the naked eye, and what Cheng Hui took out was just the most common Yuan-replenishing Pill.
It’s not that he doesn’t have better ones, but the main thing is that he can’t use them, otherwise the big bull will become a big bull sauce…
The eyes of the people around looked at Cheng Hui eagerly. Everyone knew what it meant to have a bottle of elixir that could bring the dead back to life.
However, these villagers obviously knew that this kind of medicine was expensive, so no one had the nerve to ask for it, despite their eagerness.
At this time, Brother Li came out to smooth things over and sent the villagers away with just a few words.
Brother Li looked at Cheng Hui and gave a wry smile. "I'm very grateful that you saved Daniu. I know what I'm about to say might seem a bit indecent, but I still have to say that it's best to do less of this kind of thing in the future. Not every kindness is rewarded. I know the people in our village well; they're generally kindhearted, but people from other places..."
He sighed, "You people from the other world have a lot of good stuff in your hands, but you're going to be here for a long time, right? Anyway... you better be more careful in the future. Although you people from the other world are powerful, we here also have things that can hurt you."
Cheng Hui smiled and thanked him for the reminder.
The idea of not showing off one's wealth is true everywhere. It is true that the cultivators are very powerful in martial arts, but as the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. If someone really wants to plot against you on someone else's territory, they have plenty of ways to do it.
The simplest way is to poison, but the monks did not claim to be immune to all poisons.
However, he was still very grateful to Brother Li for saying such words. At least this man was upright and reliable.
After the two of them returned, Li Qing was soon called away again and did not return until noon.
After returning, Li Qing did not show any abnormality, but Cheng Hui noticed that there seemed to be someone walking back and forth outside the yard, as if waiting for something.
He looked at Li Qing silently. Li Qing seemed to have noticed the people outside. He could only smile bitterly and waved his hand: "Ignore those brats. They don't use their brains all day long and just think about useless things."
Cheng Hui smiled slightly. Li Qing was a little restless and went to the door to scold the guy who was walking around.
Cheng Hui listened and it seemed that the people in the village wanted him to help get rid of the wild boars.
He heard Li Qing scolding the other party, which roughly meant that Cheng Hui's status was very special and how could he give instructions casually. The young man retorted that they were not giving instructions casually, but were sincerely asking for his help, and the village was willing to pay a certain price.
Cheng Hui found it amusing. Li Qing obviously knew that he could hear what he was saying, and his intention was precisely to let him know. If he was willing, then when Li Qing came back, he would naturally ask, and he could then tell him what he had said.
If he didn't ask anything, Li Qing would understand that he had no intention of taking action, and then he wouldn't even need to mention it, and it could also avoid embarrassment for both parties.
Cheng Hui didn't mind giving them a hand. After all, the wild boars that were difficult for them to deal with were just a matter of one punch for him... If one punch couldn't solve the problem, he would just throw two more punches.
With his silver-armored corpse physique, he could easily knock out any wild beasts or demonic beasts below the Golden Core stage with one punch.
That’s why people say that physical cultivators are so popular in this world and have a special advantage in fights.
When Li Qing came back, Cheng Hui took the opportunity to ask about the wild boar herd. Li Qing really told him that their village could not afford much money, but Li Qing himself could provide Cheng Hui with a certificate.
If you take this certificate to the Prince of Zhennan's Palace, there is a high chance that you will be directly selected into the Prince of Cheng's Palace guard.
The national strength of Fengyu Kingdom is not strong, and there are only a few teams qualified to enter the bloody battlefield. The team of King Zhennan is definitely Cheng Hui's best choice.
After hearing the conditions proposed by Li Qing, Cheng Hui readily agreed.
For him, the proof that Li Qing gave him could help him overcome many early troubles and gain a foothold on the battlefield as soon as possible.
He analyzed a lot of things from Li Qing's words, the most important of which was... The battlefield has never been a place for one person to show off his heroism. The more subordinates you have, the more results you can reap. Moreover, they seem to have a special battle formation that can gather the power of the soldiers into one and bless the chief officer.
In this case, the commander can even use spells to a limited extent to cause greater damage on the battlefield.
In short, fighting on the battlefield requires the commander and the soldiers to cooperate well with each other, and to achieve this, it is natural to train better from the beginning.
The two made an agreement. Cheng Hui didn't want to waste the world, so he took Li Qing directly to find the wild boars.
Li Qing originally wanted to bring other hunters to help him, but was rejected by Cheng Hui. He thought Cheng Hui was a little arrogant at first, but after he saw with his own eyes how Cheng Hui dealt with those wild boars, he was completely numb.
When he came down from the mountain at night, his eyes were still a little straight, which made many villagers feel nervous, fearing that something might happen.
