Chapter 9: Health, Longevity, Blessing, and Longevity
How can I, Du Kang, be the kind of person who eats soft food? Before I was Tao Shiyu, later I was Feng Shangjun, and now I am Hei Rulan. Why do everyone regard me as someone who is easy to sleep?
Shivering with cold breath, when will a good-looking boy stand up?
Du Kang roared crazily in his heart.
Thinking of the old face as black as blue, the severe burns, and the charming body that looked like an ice corpse, Du Kang felt that this bowl of soft rice was still too hard. Although he had a cow's stomach, he still wanted to eat something soft.
and.
"Boss Lin might as well think about it seriously. Although my mother is old, she is still as beautiful as a flower. Being with her is a blessing that no one can ask for. Besides, a boat costs 90,000 taels of silver. Although Boss Lin has a big family,
But no one’s money comes from strong winds. Opportunities are rare. If you pass this village, there won’t be a shop like this.”
Gong Cancan on the side finally said the first words after entering the door, but he opened his mouth to admit his father.
Du Kang was a little overwhelmed when he thought that the man in his forties might become his eldest son. He then turned to look at the gorgeous Hei Rulan on the rocking chair. Not to mention, although it looked a bit scary at first
, but if you taste it carefully, this woman with a cold body really has a different and unique charm.
Du Kang lowered his head in thought, the room fell into silence, and Hei Rulan quietly waited for his answer.
After repeatedly weighing the difference between a bowl of hard rice and ninety thousand taels of silver, Du Kang, who had been thinking for a long time, finally raised his head under Gong Cancan's expectant eyes, and saw a look of perseverance in his eyes.
"Sister is so beautiful that she likes her, and Lin Chun likes her very much. But Lin Chun cannot agree to the companionship that sister just said. A man is born between heaven and earth. He should carry a three-foot sword to stand upright.
How can I bend my knees and charm my beloved because of my great achievements? Thank you very much for your love, sister, and Lin Chun takes leave."
Du Kang saluted Hei Rulan, and without waiting for the other party's response, he turned around and strode outside.
Gong Cancan looked at Hei Rulan asking for instructions. She just shook her head slightly. Gong Cancan did not chase after him, nor did he take action against Du Kang. He still stood there respectfully.
It wasn't until Du Kang's footsteps faded away that Hei Rulan's slightly hoarse voice asked.
"What is the identity of this person? Have you checked? The smell on his body makes the demons in my body feel restless."
"This person came to our door by himself. Most of the goods he sells are produced in the southeast of Haizhou. It didn't seem to be a problem, but my subordinates checked it out out of caution. I thought that the mountains in the southeast were high and the roads were far away, so it would take a long time to get any news.
In return, our spy sent me his information within half an hour."
"So, he is not a nobody."
"Not only is he famous, he is also the person the Wu Sheng Sect and the Rakshasa Sect are looking for. His portrait was passed to the local branch two months ago. The two sects call him Du Kang. I don't know which one is the real name, Du Kang or Lin Chun.
The Canglan City branches of the two religions have been secretly paying attention to people from the southeast recently. They are afraid that this person will not just offend them. If they just kill their masters, they can be captured directly with great fanfare. Can they be secretly captured?
What we are looking for is either someone who has stolen something from them, someone who has learned some of their secrets, or someone who has something they covet."
Gong Cancan's words stopped here. The implication was that he should not do anything to this man, for the sake of something in him that was of concern to both religions.
"Forget it, we still focus on collecting intelligence in Canglan City, and don't cause too many troubles. Firstly, this person is not easy to deal with, and secondly, what good things can be found in the southeast of Haizhou. Besides, my body is almost exhausted. I can’t live anymore. I’ll sell everything I can sell in the past few months. When the time comes, I’ll just take the money and go back to the island. I don’t want to deal with the mess here. Whoever wants to come will come.”
The frozen rocking chair creaked again, and Hei Rulan's words were full of lifeless numbness.
These words made Gong Cancan bend his knees and kneel directly on the ground. His eyes were full of enthusiasm and he respectfully said to the woman in front of him.
"The island owner's lineage of magic practice has always had a narrow escape. You have survived all the previous four expansions of the demon prison. Miss Sixteen has been blessed. You will definitely survive this time smoothly."
"Cancan, you can also say some auspicious words. I have a feeling that I won't be able to survive this time. At the same time, I sealed the Snow Queen and the Six-winged Phoenix in my body. I thought I could balance them with ice and fire, but the reality is But their power burst my demon prison first. I must die on the island, and the Snow Queen and the Six-winged Phoenix must be taken back to my father."
"I will obey Miss Sixteen's will. Your will is my direction."
Gong Cancan shouted loudly. After hearing the sound, the two gatekeepers outside the door knelt down and repeated the same words in a low voice.
"After I die, the creatures in the Demon Hell will be taken away by my father, but their power will still remain in my body, and all kinds of weird and unpredictable things will happen around the body. Therefore, I must use silver after my death. As a coffin, gold as a symbol, so that my heroic spirit can rest in peace. As my bodyguard, are you willing to protect me forever? From birth to death, until the end of time?"
The dull hoarse voice told about the cruel burial matters, but to Gong Cancan, this seemed to be a supreme honor. He shed tears of excitement and bowed to the ground more respectfully to express his loyalty.
"Gong Cancan will always follow Miss Sixteen until the end of time."
…
Du Kang, who was walking in the backyard of the inn, stopped and listened. There seemed to be some faint sound coming from behind him, but he couldn't hear it clearly. However, after confirming that the sound was not dangerous and had nothing to do with him, he forgot about the matter. back.
"Sure enough, I made the right choice. As a spy from Blackwood Island, I will not take the risk of falling out with me. If we really want to fight, regardless of whether we can beat me, the commotion will also alarm the ruler of this city. .”
Du Kang refused to accept this bowl of hard rice, of course not because Hei Rulan's painting style was a bit curious. He could even kill peach trees like Tao Shiyu and birdies like Feng Shangjun. This shows how powerful Du Kang's aesthetics is. How unusual and how unique the understanding of beauty is.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Du Kang did not agree because based on his rich experience, Hei Rulan did not seem to be a womanizer. What she just said was probably just a woman in the enemy camp. A lurker's instinct is to test all those who approach him. If Du Kang really agreed to her, it would be an act that was inconsistent with his status at this time and would arouse her suspicion.
Moreover, Du Kang came to Bibohai to develop in a low-key manner and did not want to rashly get involved in the struggles of these big forces. Even if he wanted to participate in the future, he would only choose a position that would benefit him the most after he became stronger.
Instead of taking a rash plunge into the muddy waters like now when we still don’t understand the underlying situation of Bibohai.
However, when it comes to people being so careful about lurking, Du Kang, a fugitive who offended the two major sects of the Liang Kingdom, is a little too relaxed. Even if the two sects of Wu Sheng and Rakshasa are not completely powerful in the Bibo Sea, they are just peace and harmony.
Comparing the two houses with one island, one palace and one view, they only changed their names but not their faces, which is really too careless.
When he left Fulai Inn, Du Kang planned to change his face into a face from his previous life. It was a handsome face that was no less handsome than in this life. Even if he hid his identity, his ugly appearance must not affect Du Kang's way of dealing with others.
Du Kang couldn't afford the 90,000 taels of silver on the sea-going ship. He said money was not a problem in front of Hei Rulan, just to maintain his identity.
If you want to raise enough money to buy a boat, or get a boat from other channels, you will have to stay in Canglan City for a while.
Returning to the main building of the inn, a group of snakes were already full of food and wine and were waiting for him in the lobby.
Seeing that Du Kang had returned safely, Tan Hua hurriedly ran to him: "Sir, has the business been settled?"
"No, a ship costs ninety thousand taels. Your young master doesn't have the financial resources."
"Sir, since the goods have been sold and the boat purchase has not been completed, let's just move out of this inn tonight. I always feel that both the shopkeeper and the waiter at Fulai Inn are a bit weird and make people feel uneasy."
Tan Hua handed a tray of gold and silver to Du Kang. Du Kang looked around and saw that the entire hall was full of his own people. He waved his hand and put most of it directly into his stomach.
"Don't go to such trouble. We'll stay here for one night and nothing will happen. Tomorrow morning, you can go out and buy a big house that can accommodate dozens of people. It will be our resting place in Lancang City."
Du Tray had forty taels of gold left, enough to buy a large courtyard in a market town that was not yet surrounded by city walls.
Tan Hua believed in his master's judgment and didn't say much at the moment. He just put away the gold and followed Du Kang upstairs. The other slaves who had been sitting in the entire hall also got up silently and headed towards their rooms.
Only the four half-grown children with green faces and turtle shells on their backs in the corner looked at each other, got up and walked towards their room.
Du Kang, who had already reached the door of the second-floor room, caught sight of these four green figures from the corner of his eye and stopped.
"You four come up."
When the four of them heard Du Kang's voice, they were overjoyed and hurriedly ran upstairs on the wooden stairs.
Since Du Kang cultivated the water talisman yesterday, he has never taken the initiative to talk to them again, which makes these four children who have experienced many changes feel terrified, thinking that they have no use value and may be sold or abandoned by Du Kang.
At this time, I can hear the call from the master of my own destiny, and I can't help but feel happy.
Du Kang stopped at the door of the room and saw four children, the oldest being fifteen or sixteen years old and the youngest being thirteen or fourteen, standing in a row in front of him. He also felt that they had a bad fate.
I used to live a good life in the market town of my hometown. Although my life was poor, I was happy. Suddenly one day, my home was invaded by horse bandits, and my parents and relatives were killed. I was lucky enough to survive, but my head was shaved and I became a reserve force for the horse bandits.
Later, this group of horse bandits were killed by others. They finally escaped from the tiger's mouth and were attacked by a turtle demon. When they woke up from the coma, although they became monks, they already had a big turtle shell on their backs, and even their appearance changed drastically.
Already.
The image of a man with no grass on his head, covered in green skin, and carrying a turtle shell on his back is not acceptable to everyone.
Du Kang could have directly saved them with the Rejuvenation Technique, but he directly helped them practice the Turtle Shell Technique so that he could cultivate the Water Talisman. He didn't know whether they had made a profit or a loss, so he was comforting them at the moment.
"This appearance before you is only temporary. When you grow up, you will be able to control the power of the spell and transform this half-demon freely."
"Master allowed us to become monks, which is already a blessing we obtained in our previous lives. As for how we look like, we have never cared about it."
Liu Erdan, the oldest among the four, spoke directly. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be more happy than distressed about his status as a monk.
None of these people had the demon seal of enlistment, and they did not gain Du Kang's trust. Du Kang only listened to and believed what they said, and even if they resented him in their hearts, he would not take it seriously.
"You have been following me for a month, and I have been on the road before. I have not asked you about your future plans. Now that you have arrived in Canglan City, a big city, if you want to leave, I can give you a sum of money to let you go.
Make a living on your own. You don't have to worry about your livelihood. With the status of a monk, you can live well wherever you go."
Even gangs like the Blood Clothes Society know that if they want to give the gang members who become monks a chance to choose whether to stay or go, Du Kang will naturally not force those who yearn for freedom to stay with him.
They are different from the others under Du Kang. They neither have the demon seal to enlist nor are they the slaves controlled by Tan Hua. They should be given a chance to choose. The reward Du Kang should receive for saving them has already been paid the moment the water talisman is completed.
Taken back.
The four of them looked at each other and knelt down. The leader, Liu Erdan, started crying.
"Master, you can't drive us away. You saved us from the bandits and taught us magic. We are willing to work as cows and horses for the rest of our lives to repay you."
Is it because you lost a loved one at a young age and you instinctively feel close to me as your savior?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Du Kang came to this conclusion in his heart, walked forward and helped them up one by one.
"Since you don't want to leave, I won't force you to leave. After all, you've been following me for so long, and I haven't asked you your names yet."
"My name is Liu Erdan."
"My name is Liu Sangou."
"My name is Liu Shitou."
"My name is Liu Goudan."
Several people rushed to answer, fearing to be left behind.
Du Kang personally helped them practice the spells. Of course he knew their names. At this time, he just wanted to change their names. What are the names of the Chakravartin King's men called Goudan and Erdan? It was really unworthy.
"These are all nicknames. It seems that you adults haven't given you a big name yet. According to the legend, there is a demon saint in the demon clan who was enlightened by the turtle demon. It has always been regarded as a symbol of health and longevity, and continuous blessings and longevity, so I gave them to you respectively.
Please name them Liu Kang, Liu Chang, Liu Fu, and Liu Shou. I hope you will all become blessed people."
"Thank you, Master, for giving us your name. We will be loyal to you all our lives."
The voices of the four people who were in the stage of voice change were uniform, and they had obviously been rehearsed for a long time. Du Kang saw through it and continued.
"Furthermore, your master has a keen eye and can identify the weapons that a person is naturally good at. The four of you are destined to be matched with four weapons. Liu Kang is good at using double swords, Liu Chang is good at using three-pronged stabs, Liu Fu is good at using nunchucks and Liu Shou is good at using long sticks."
If you have some free time in a few days, I will buy these types of magic weapons for you."
The four people thanked them profusely for a while, and then Du Kang rushed them back to his room on the pretext that he was tired.
After everything was arranged, Tan Hua closed the door, walked to the bed, took one of Du Kang's big feet in his arms and squeezed it gently.
"Young master, you want to keep these four children who have practiced the turtle shell technique?"
"You are not much older than them. Are they also children in your eyes?"
"Whether they grow up or not depends not only on their age, but more importantly on their mind and strength. From these two aspects, they are just children to me."
The power of the Snake Mother Technique to control people's hearts quickly matured Tan Hua's mind, making her look nothing like she had just grown up. Although the power of the Snake Mother Technique was weak in the early stage, forty people took monster supplements for three months.
She is a snake guard, and her power is not weak among low-level monks.
"With the completion of the Talisman Technique, I have some new ideas about magic. I have my own intentions in keeping them by my side."
Tan Hua's hands pressing his feet had a subtle demonic power seeping out, slowly stimulating the acupuncture points on the soles of Du Kang's feet, speeding up the blood flow.
"I know the young master has his own plans in mind, but today you directly promised each of them a magic weapon. Tan Hua has been with you for so long, and I haven't received anything from you. Tan Hua is unhappy!"
"I've been busy with various things these days, so I've been neglecting you. Well, a few days ago, you said that the demon snake egg on your body could jump. I have little knowledge and want to see the world. If it jumps well, I'll give it to you.
How about a magic weapon!"
"Sir, how bad are you..."
The green-faced boy and the white-faced boy were now too weak to bear the responsibility of guarding. The yellow-faced boy and the red-faced boy had to guard the Zhendiding, which made Du Kang highly vigilant all night and he didn't sleep until dawn...
