Whether a person can stand out and make others look at him differently must have essential characteristics.

And will or perseverance is one of them.

When a person devotes himself wholeheartedly to something, according to modern psychology, he enters flow.

In this state, no matter what you do, you will get twice the result with half the effort, if God helps you.

At this moment, Wang Tianba seemed to have entered this state.

Wang Tianba didn't know how long it had been since he couldn't touch the mountain gate to now kneeling outside the mountain gate begging for shelter.

At this time, his knees were already submerged in the soil.

Just like the traces of Chen Xiang kneeling when he worshiped Sun Wukong as his disciple.

The clothes on his body were already in tatters, and the only strips of cloth that were left could barely cover his appearance.

But looking at his body, you can tell that he is strong enough.

Although his face was covered by beard and hair, the look in his eyes showed that he was a man of pursuit.

At this moment, he is no longer the Wang Tianba who just entered the chat group.

At that time, he just wanted to get some secrets of cultivating immortals and sell them to chat groups.

Then I buy some exercises from the chat group that can be practiced.

His original purpose was to accumulate some original capital, become a second-hand dealer, and use resources to grow himself.

But now, he has no thoughts at all and only thinks about seeking the truth.

Over the past two years, he has slowly transformed from an ordinary person into a person with a firm goal and a heart for seeking the truth.

At this moment, even if he does not worship Patriarch Bodhi as his teacher, he can still make a name for himself in modern society.

"Squeak~"

The door opened, but Wang Tianba seemed not to hear it and continued to kneel where he was.

He didn't even raise his head and continued to close his eyes and meditate.

He no longer knows what time is.

For more than two years, he hasn't had a bite to eat or a mouthful of water to drink.

But his body was countless times stronger than before.

Although he heard the sound, he didn't think it had anything to do with him.

"Hey~ hello~"

Wang Tianba raised his head and saw a little Taoist boy at the door calling him.

As if seeing Wang Tianba's doubts, the little Taoist boy said: "Come in! Master wants to see you."

"...Master? See me?"

"Yes, Master wants to see you. By the way, you have an hour to get up. If you can't get up, it means the fate has not arrived. Please do it as soon as possible!"

At this moment, Wang Tianba only heard the first sentence and didn't pay attention to the latter sentence at all.

"Xiao Qian, did you hear Xiao Qian? Master wants to call me, Master wants to call me.

Xiaoqian, Xiaoqian, ha~, it turns out that I am the only one left."

Looking around, Wang Tianba finally realized that Xiao Qian had left at some point.

And he himself fell into the mud.

"Um?"

I looked at the deep hole under my knee, but I didn’t even pull it out?

"rise!"

This time, Wang Tianba pulled hard, but his knees that were about to be raised fell down again.

"An hour?"

At this time, Wang Tianba remembered that this seemed to be what Xiao Daotong was talking about just now!

He raised his head and glanced at the mountain gate. At this time, the mountain gate was wide open, as if for preparation.

But now, the gate with the words "Lingtai Fangcun Mountain" and "Xie Yue Sanxing Cave" engraved on it is only three steps away from him.

But these three steps seem like a long way to go.

It seems to be close at hand, but in fact it is far away.

"Hoo~"

Wang Tianba let out a breath and prepared to fight with all his strength.

Although there is a time limit of one hour, if he cannot pull it out, he will not be able to pull it out even if he is given another day.

If you can stand up in one go, you will stand up completely.

There is no time limit. It makes no difference whether there is an hour or not.

"Hoo~"

Taking a deep breath, Wang Tianba tried his best and prepared to fight for the last time.

This time, no matter whether it succeeds or not, Wang Tianba is not going to try again.

"rise!"

I saw Wang Tianba's legs forcefully exerted force, and the long-broken trousers on his legs became shattered again.

Fortunately, he still has a pair of underwear.

But Wang Tianba didn't have the heart to think about this at this time.

My thighs and calves exerted force at the same time, and my knees, which had not changed after kneeling for more than a year, suddenly lifted up.

In an instant, Wang Tianba almost stood up.

But there seemed to be some suction in the deep underground pit, tempting Wang Tianba's knees to return home again.

It's simply more outrageous than gravity.

But Wang Tianba knew that if he knelt down again, he might not be able to get up again in this life.

Therefore, relying on the strong willpower he had honed over the past two years, Wang Tianba resisted the suction force.

Visible sweat fell from his head.

But Wang Tianba didn't dare to relax at all, as if he was walking on the edge of a cliff, for fear that he would fall to the bottom accidentally.

At this time, it was a tug-of-war between Wang Tianba's will and the suction at the bottom of the pit.

Wang Tianba could not relax for a moment, for fear that he would kneel down again by accident.

The feet walked back bit by bit, and the knees also broke free bit by bit.

Just like that, after one stick of incense, Wang Tianba completely got out of the pit he had spent more than a year kneeling out of.

This is also the past that he cannot bear to look back on.

…

"Oh, what a talented scholar! Why are you out working again?

Your current job is to update the Legend of the Withered Heroes, you are not here to be a bookkeeper."

"Shopkeeper, I just came out to get some fresh air.

Besides, if you don’t touch the account book for a long time, it will happen..."

"I'm such a scholar, you won't be in the future, no, you are no longer the accountant.

It hasn’t been the case since I finished writing The Eight Parts of the Dragon.

Whether you want to get some fresh air or collect some scenery, you can let Zhantang accompany you!

There’s no need to come to the counter to settle the bill!”

"Shopkeeper, I..."

"I, Lao Bai, will accompany the scholar to Xiliang River or Shibalipu."

"clear!"

Seeing the shopkeeper and Lao Bai who had changed into different people, Lu Xiucai didn't know what to say.

Since he established the chat group, he met someone he liked at first, but his pursuit was to become an emperor.

Then, he felt that he was not worthy of others, so he gave up this plan.

But after that, he didn't know what to do.

In this world, he alone has a communication channel that can communicate with other worlds.

He felt that he should do something.
