The next morning at the hour of Yin, on the back mountain.
A red mark of a scabbard appeared on the right side of Xu Xiaoyi's face. He was doing a horse stance with a sharp spear head under his buttocks and a bowl full of water on his head.
"Master, I'm only one minute late. How could you treat my handsome face like this?" Xu Xiaoyi said with sweat on his forehead, aggrieved.
"If your attitude towards martial arts training is not sincere, you should be beaten and punished."
Xu Xiaoyi maintained this posture until six o'clock in the morning, a full two hours. He put down the bowl on his head and felt his legs and feet were numb. Then he lay on the ground. When he was about to use the smoke to clear the negative state, the scabbard blew directly towards the other side of his face.
“Ah!!! (Wailing)”
"Go get those two buckets, fill them with water, then jump to the foot of the mountain on one foot. Pour the water into the vat, then jump back up with the other foot. Continue to collect water until the vat at the foot of the mountain is full. Don't switch feet or be lazy during this time. Otherwise, you know the consequences." Luo Qingcheng instructed Xu Xiaoyi:
"Master, are you serious? Do you want me to become a cockfighting king?" Xu Xiaoyi said, covering his burning left cheek.
"Huh? You can't do it?"
"Can't do it? Oh my! Don't underestimate me! I have to show my strength and produce results to convince you, Master."
Xu Xiaoyi stood up and picked up the bucket beside him. He walked forward and filled it with the river water he had used for artificial rainfall. Then he lifted the bucket with both hands and started jumping. He originally thought it would be easy, but now he felt the difficulty. In the process of jumping, not only would the water overflow, but it was also difficult to operate, which made him feel difficult.
Da da da!
Bang!
While jumping, Xu Xiaoyi stepped into a pit covered with leaves.
Caught off guard, he stumbled and fell to the ground. He stood up and shook his head to shake off the dust on his face. Then he watched as the two buckets of water in his hands were poured out, and there was an instant explosion.
"Why the hell is there a trap!!!"
The angry Xu Xiaoyi continued to jump with two buckets of water. This time he observed carefully. After passing the trap in the first level, he jumped triumphantly. Then his feet slipped and he slid down the mountain like skiing on the grass. His butt almost rubbed out sparks, and he hit a tree halfway through the slide.
He stood up again and looked back, only to see that the area was actually covered with fine sand. Damn it! How could there be so much sand on the mountain road?
He was even more unwilling to accept it and went up to refill the bucket with water. This time he began to jump slowly in order to be steady. He gradually found the feeling and mastered the jumping technique. He didn't pay attention to the water in the bucket. Finally, he saw the small tank at the foot of the mountain, as if he saw hope.
Hey, hey, hey, are you looking down on me with such a small tank? I only need one bucket of water to fill it up!
He jumped to the small vat, then picked up the bucket and prepared to pour water into it.
Da…da…
Only a few drops of water dripped out of the bucket in his hand, and Xu Xiaoyi was petrified instantly when he saw it.
He lifted the bucket and looked inside in disbelief, only to discover a small hole underneath. His face instantly turned pale as death.
What a joke! How could there still be a hole?! I finally made it to the bottom of the mountain, and now they tell me all the water has leaked out! It was supposed to leak out! And it still leaks!
Things are really getting interesting. Is this the price of becoming a peerless master? Don't even think I'll give up! I didn't even blink when I was punished to copy the school rules a hundred times!
【Didn’t you copy it?】
Shut up!
Xu Xiaoyi picked up the bucket and jumped on it with his other foot to fill it with water. After repeating this process many times...
Oioioi~ I'm so amazing! I'm a shining star! It's unbelievable!
Xu Xiaoyi looked at the small jar in front of him that he had filled with water in a disheveled manner, and instantly felt proud.
"not bad."
"Yeah, I'm the best... Ah, Master, don't stand behind me suddenly! It's scary." Xu Xiaoyi's body shook, and he looked at the person who came behind him silently in surprise.
"Well, I'll stand on your left next time."
Is this what I meant?
"It's really beyond my expectation. I thought it would take you a long time."
"Of course! I'm the strongest man in Xiqing County! And I didn't give up. Isn't that incredible perseverance?"
"That's all for today. Let's continue tomorrow. Don't be late again."
After saying this, Luo Qingcheng disappeared from the spot.
Xu Xiaoyi didn't hear the answer he wanted to hear, and instantly felt lost. He said to the system weakly:
System, tell me! Because you are the best, you can persevere.
[When Luo Qingcheng was 7 years old, the first tank she filled was ten times bigger than yours, and the hole in the bucket was even bigger than yours.]
. . . . .
What a stinky system! If you don't want to praise me, just say it! You're still playing tricks on me!
[Don't be so incompetent and rage! Incompetent hosts only blame the virtuous system! ]
Exhausted, Xu Xiaoyi returned to the county magistrate's mansion. He was in a dishevel and wanted to take off his clothes and take a bath.
"Where have you been? How can you be so dirty?" Lin Shengwan asked in confusion when she saw Xu Xiaoyi's dirty appearance:
"Alas, I am the magistrate of this county after all. If I don't lead by example, how can people trust me?"
"You went to work?"
Xu Xiaoyi shook his head.
"It's just a small contribution, nothing to mention compared to my previous great achievements."
"Then what's with the red marks on your face?"
"That's the warning line I use to constantly remind myself to put the people first!"
