Burning Flames 烈焰 Episode 7

Because Wu Geng defeated Bigfoot, he also made all the slaves very happy. Wu Geng became the new centurion, and everyone was happy to see it happen. Wu Geng requested that the reward be changed into six hours a day for everyone's work, and one day off for every ten days of work. If someone was sick, a doctor should be asked to help diagnose and treat them. Chen Jing didn't want to break his promise in front of his son, so he could only agree to Wu Geng's request.

Wu Geng's idea of ​​sharing blessings and hardships made him even more popular among the slaves. Wu Geng came to visit the injured Bigfoot late at night, and he also gave Bigfoot medicine for his injuries. Wu Geng told Bigfoot that everyone lived a life of oppression and slavery, but life should not be trampled on, and because of Wu Geng's move, Bigfoot changed his mind.

Wu Geng abolished all the previous rules and vowed to take the lead and advance and retreat together with everyone. Wu Geng also improved the food for everyone and asked everyone to queue up to receive the food in an orderly manner, so that all the old, weak, women and children could have food to eat. A slave in the mine was injured by Bigfoot. Wu Geng heard that the mine would send slaves he disliked to the Colosseum to fight beasts, so he went to the Colosseum to check. Bigfoot was beaten by the official and forced him to fight with the slave. Bigfoot couldn't bear it and injured the slave. Wu Geng stepped in to stop Bigfoot and told the official and others that if Bigfoot injured the slave, it would delay the mining. At the time of blood stone, Master Chen Jing cannot afford to blame them. Under Wu Geng's threat, these official officials calmed down and left.

Wu Geng saw that Bigfoot was being deprived of food and brought him food late at night. He asked Bigfoot not to hurt others because of eating, so that he would not be taken advantage of because of eating. In order to take care of the old, weak, sick and disabled, Wu Geng divided the slaves into groups to work and stipulated that they could rest as long as they completed their workload that day. Everyone was very grateful to Wu Geng for his decision.

Wu Geng accidentally discovered that Chen Jing was very good at Qi training and wondered why he still stayed in this dark mine. Chen Jing discovered that Wu Geng was secretly watching him practice Qi, and warned him to avoid it if he saw him practicing Qi in the future. Wu Geng counted the mining tools that needed to be replaced in the mine and asked Chen Jing for replacement work, and Chen Jing agreed to his request. Day after day, Wu Geng gradually adapted to life in the mine. He also learned tenacity and compassion from Baicai, and he gradually found his own way.

Four years later, Zhou Qiao brought his adoptive father Gui Mu to Beishan Mine. When Chen Jing and Gui Mu met, they taunted each other. It turned out that Chen Jing was actually the subjugated king of Wanqu Kingdom. Over the years, Zhou Qiao has found young girls of the right age for Guimu to eat so that his seriously injured body can get better. Guimu is grateful to him and accepts him as his adopted son. Now Zhou Qiao wants to learn some skills to be used by the Yi clan, but because of his mortal body Unable to practice Qi skills, Guimu asked Chen Jing to teach Zhou Qiao how to practice Qi skills. Although Chen Jing politely refused on the grounds that qi practitioners need to reconcile with their physical constitution, Zhou Qiao still insisted on trying the practice first. Since then, Chen Jing had no choice but to agree to teach qi training. Chen Jing said that a man-eating monster appeared in the mine today and had eaten nearly a hundred people. He could not concentrate on teaching Zhou Qiao how to practice Qi, and he hoped they could understand.

Chen Jing took Guimu and Zhou Qiao to visit the mine, and specially asked Wu Geng to come to meet the two. Wu Geng deliberately disfigured his face in order to prevent the two from recognizing him.
