I'm not a drama god

Jian Changsheng has nothing.

He has no talent, no background, and all he can trade with Bai Qi is his soul and body in the next life... He is willing to gamble his next life in exchange for reaching the peak of this life.

For Bai Qi, this is indeed the best choice. After all, he has no hope in this life. If Chen Ling can restart the world, then he will have another chance to start over... and next time, he can directly have a body.

It's a really good deal.

"I can help you." After a long time, Bai Qi spoke slowly.

Before Jian Changsheng could show any joy, Bai Qi said again:

"However, I am now just a regret. I don't have enough murderous energy to help you from within... If you want to break through, you can only forcibly introduce murderous energy from outside and use it to temper yourself..."

"The murderous aura outside..." Jian Changsheng seemed to realize something, "Ancient Treasure of the Way of War?"

In this world, the only place where that ancient murderous aura could possibly still exist is in the deepest part of the ancient military treasure house.

"That's right... But I'll tell you in advance, this is a very painful and difficult process. You might even lose everything in the process, your soul scattered... If you die, I won't be held responsible, and our deal will continue."

Bai Qi's conditions were extremely harsh, even extremely unequal. Not only was there no guarantee that Jian Changsheng would survive, but even if he succumbed to the pressure and died, Jian Changsheng would still be Bai Qi's appendage in his next life... and the only thing Bai Qi had to pay for this process was a "method."

But Jian Changsheng didn't hesitate much, and nodded with gritted teeth:

"Okay, I promise you!"

"Since that's the case, swear an oath before Bai Qiling... This is an item I created using the foundation of the Way of War. Even if the world restarts, as long as the next world still contains the Ancient Treasure of the Way of War, as long as our souls are close together, this oath will still be valid."

Bai Qi threw the token casually at Jian Changsheng's feet.

He paused for a moment and added:

"No matter what the process is, since I will teach you personally, from now on, you can be considered half of my student..."

"After we take the oath..."

"Please pay your respects to me as your disciple."

……

"Ku ...

"Clack~~~~"

Chen Ling opened his eyes sleepily, and the loud cries of a hen came into his ears.

The dim sunset shone through the bridge, gilding the flowing river. Chen Ling slowly sat up, peering outside through the crude cardboard and creaking "beams." Proud hens were passing by, their heads held high and their chests puffed out.

"here it is……"

Chen Ling rubbed her eyes to make sure she was not dreaming.

Isn’t this Jin Fugui’s “property”?

How did I get here?

He got off the broken bed that seemed like it would fall apart at any moment and staggered out. Although he had woken up, he was still a little dizzy. His brain felt like it had been drained out, and he was filled with weakness and fatigue.

"What's going on? How come General Jian can't even catch a fish?!"

"You...I...you wait until my injuries are fully recovered!"

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm telling you, let's be fair. Even brothers have to settle accounts. You guys have been staying here for so many days for nothing. If you don't catch me some more fish to improve the food... hehe..."

"Hey, Jin Fugui, what if I don't catch you?"

"I'll spread the word that the Sixth Generation is a bunch of freeloaders! I wonder if you still have any shame!"

"you……!!"

"Hurry up and work! You won't eat if you don't catch ten fish today!"

"No, why don't you care about Meihua?! Why should he lie in the dirt while I have to work like a slave?!"

"He paid for his board, a whole silver coin! Have you any money?"

"I... Meihua, can you help me pay it too?"

"Spades, I'm out of money QAQ..."

"..."

In the setting sun, Jin Fugui was holding a piece of dogtail grass that he had picked up from somewhere, using it as a whip, and swinging it at Jian Changsheng, who was wrapped in bandages. Although it did almost no harm, it was extremely insulting.

Jian Changsheng gritted his teeth and couldn't get angry. He could only roll up his trouser legs, step into the water, and try hard to catch fish.

Everyone was stunned when they saw Chen Ling coming from a distance.

"Heart? Are you awake?"

"Lord Red King~!! Oh, why did you come here in person? I was just about to bring some fish over to you later, hahahaha..."

"??? You're so good, Jin Fugui! I'm the only one who's vulnerable, right?"

Chen Ling chatted with them for a few words in a daze, and then he realized that five days had passed since they came out of the Ghost Path Ancient Treasure.

Among the six generations, the first one to wake up was Jiang Xiaohua, who had the lightest injuries. After confirming that the others were not in danger of life, he found a place to bury himself; the second one to wake up was Jian Changsheng. After waking up, he was forced to work like a slave. He went to the fields to work before his injuries were fully healed. He did almost everything, such as catching fish, turning the soil, and feeding chickens.

Chen Ling was the third one to wake up, while Sun Bumian, who had consumed a lot of reincarnation power, was still sleeping.

"Are you hungry, Lord Red King? We have quite a lot of ingredients. How about making some hot pot?"

As Jin Fugui spoke, he pointed to a corner where a pile of food was piled up, from rice, flour, grain, oil, pork, beef, and everything in between.

Chen Ling was stunned: "Aren't you broke? Where did you get all these ingredients?"

"Oh, it's strange. I've been begging every day lately, and when I come back I find some wild food ingredients... um... and some wild medicines. I don't know who sent them here."

"I tried it, it's not poisonous." Jiang Xiaohua's muffled voice came from the soil.

Chen Ling stared at these things for a long time, as if he realized something. He looked in a certain direction with a complicated expression.

"You guys eat first, I have to go out for a while."

Although Chen Ling was also hungry, she waved her hand and walked straight to another street.

"Be careful when you go out. The Tianshu Realm is now... a little more chaotic than you imagined." Jin Fugui kindly reminded.

"understood."

Chen Ling's mental strength has not fully recovered yet, so he naturally won't take any risks.

He walked through the narrow and secluded streets, and when he came to a deserted corner, he spoke softly:

"Come out."

As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, a shadowy figure quietly stood up from the shadows in the corner... It seemed that she was not here from the beginning, but followed Chen Ling all the way from the direction of the bridge hole.

No... Even when Chen Ling was unconscious, she had been guarding in secret, and even Jin Fugui and others did not notice her existence.

"I am Liu Qingyan, greeting His Majesty the Red King." Liu Qingyan lifted her skirt and spoke respectfully.
