Ye Qian frowned. He really didn't expect that in a city of mortals, the beggars' business was as brutal as in the world of cultivators.
But, would this little beggar choose this way?
Ye Qian was very curious.
The little beggar was silent and put the spoon with food in his hand to the old man's mouth. He tried hard to control his little face, but the uncontrollable trembling of his little hands betrayed the little beggar's fear. He said in a daze: "You are so
If you do it, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"Oh, retribution..." The little beggar with thick eyebrows laughed, and said with a strange expression: "We are a bunch of beggars who are like mud, like shit, there is no tomorrow, today, you are telling us retribution? You are here to make fun of us!"
From now on, half of the food you ask for every time will be handed over to us!"
Having said this, the eyes of several little beggars fell on the little beggar's face. The little beggar with thick eyebrows also looked from the old man to the little beggar's aqua eyes. A bowl was placed in front of the little beggar.
He asked in a solemn voice: "No objection?"
The little beggar's face showed a look of hesitation and difficulty in making a decision.
The thumb of his right hand was holding his chin, and the other four fingers were rubbing his lips, as if he was trying to consider the pros and cons.
Ye Qian was hiding on the beam, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. The little beggars couldn't see it, but through Ye Qian's mental induction, he noticed that the little beggar used his small movements just now to move a pill-shaped thing.
Put it in your mouth.
Haha, what a twist!
It seems that it is impossible to see the old man from the Xinghai Sect take action.
The little beggar took the pill and shook his head, but did not speak.
No objection? The few beggars suddenly laughed.
The little beggar with thick eyebrows frowned slightly and looked at the little beggar suspiciously.
The old man, who had been lying expressionless and watching everything silently, opened his mouth after the little beggar shook his head, with naked contempt in his tone: "I abide by your rules and still turn it in? Do you deserve it?"
Hey, this brings out a lot of hatred, and the taunting skill is absolutely maxed out!
Ye Qian's interest increased greatly. Ordinarily, this old man who seemed to be dying should not speak out at this time.
As soon as the old man said the words, the faces of the little beggars became ugly. The strong little beggar was even more angry. He took a step forward, reached out his right hand angrily, grabbed the old man's neck, took a few steps back, and pulled half of the old man's body.
He raised it and shouted: "Old guy, what did you say? Are you looking for death?"
Seeing the strong little beggar take action, the little beggar's face turned completely cold, his throat rolled, and a faint aroma of wine spread into the air with the little beggar's breath.
"Put him down, I don't want to hurt anyone." The little beggar squinted at the strong little beggar, his eyes were as cold as stars, and his tone seemed to be a bit colder than the weather in the snowy field.
"Don't want to hurt anyone? I really want to see how you, a little brat, can hurt me, haha..."
The sturdy little beggar laughed wildly and strengthened his hands a little more. A trace of pain appeared on the old man's wrinkled face.
"You, a seven or eight-year-old brat, still want to hurt our elder brother, just wait until you dream at night."
"Don't say that, you can dream during the day, haha..."
Several little beggars laughed wildly. The little beggar with thick eyebrows sighed and couldn't bear to persuade: "Wake up, a phoenix in trouble is not as good as a chicken. This is the way of the world. Look at me, from a scholarly family, I am living like this now. I am convinced."
Be soft."
"I'm not you." In the cold rejection, the little beggar was already where he disappeared.
"Crack..." The crisp sound of broken bones sounded immediately. The sturdy little beggar looked at the little beggar who suddenly appeared next to him in horror. He instinctively took a step back, only to realize that at some point, the palm of his hand holding the old man's hand had already touched his arm.
In the separation section, as his body retreated, his arms swung back and forth in the air.
Immediately, bone-crushing pain spread throughout his body, and he instinctively covered only the part of his broken hand. The strong little beggar burst into an unprecedented painful howl from his throat, staggered, and fell to the ground rolling back and forth, as if this would relieve the pain.
"That's so fast. Did any of you see what weapon he used to cut off Big Brother's hand?"
"No, I didn't even see how he got to the boss..."
"Isn't he the legendary immortal cultivator?"
"Fortunately, fortunately, my eldest brother has always been irritable and likes to take matters into his own hands, otherwise we would be in trouble this time..."
Several little beggars let their so-called big brother roll and howl on the ground, talking quietly while watching the little beggar's expression carefully.
The sturdy little beggar was their eldest brother, and even though his hands were cut off, they were still in the mood to discuss what the other party had done. Even if they didn't agree with the eldest brother who used violence to force him to recognize him, the thick-browed little beggar couldn't help but feel desolate.
When he came to the strong little beggar, the thick-browed little beggar kicked him unconscious, then quickly sealed his acupuncture points to stop the bleeding, tore off the linen clothes close to his body, tightened the strong little beggar's broken wrist, and bandaged it tightly.
Picking up the strong little beggar, the thick-browed little beggar turned around and said to the little beggar: "You don't even have the strength to see your movements. We admit failure. It's because we are blind. We admit failure. Since it was just a break of the wrist, not a slit of the throat, think about it.
You don’t want my eldest brother’s life either. If there’s nothing else, I’m going to send him to get treatment.”
"This is my residence from now on, don't let me see you." The little beggar looked at the thick-browed little beggar in surprise, secretly praised in his heart, and supported the old man and said simply.
"When big brother wakes up, I will tell him." The little beggar with thick eyebrows looked at the little beggar's white, clean, empty little hands, frowned, and shook his head slightly.
Staring at several other little beggars with dissatisfaction, the little beggar with thick eyebrows shouted resentfully: "Why are you still standing here? Why don't you go out and steal some hemostatic herbs?"
When several little beggars heard this, their eyes immediately became strange when they looked at the little beggar with thick eyebrows. How dare this thick-browed boy, who usually has the lowest status, dare to yell at them? Or is it because of the has-been brother who has broken off his right palm and is destined to become a useless person?
They exchanged glances with each other, and the beggars responded with flattering smiles and bowed their hands to the little beggar before leaving the ruined temple and going out to look for styptic grass.
Holding the strong little beggar who fainted, the thick-browed little beggar stepped out of the temple threshold, turned his head and asked the little beggar: "If you don't agree, why did you shake your head just now?"
The little beggar helped the old man lie down again and said: "I shake my head not to mean that I have no objection to your words. What I mean is that I don't have anything to beg for, let alone anything to 'hand over'..."
Looking at the thick-browed little beggar intently, the little beggar said calmly: "When I don't have food, I will eat grass and leaves, steal, cheat and rob, but I will not beg from others."
Hearing this, the little beggar with thick eyebrows was speechless for a long time and left directly.
Even Ye Qian, who was watching the whole process, was a little surprised, what a unique answer.
This view really suits his taste.
He liked this little beggar even more.
"May I have your name?"
Ye Qian descended from the sky, dressed in green clothes, with a spring-breathing smile, and asked the little beggar.
"Who are you?"
A person suddenly appeared. The little beggar was startled and asked subconsciously.
The dying old man on the ground had a flash of shock in his eyes, his breath became weaker and weaker, and he looked like he might die at any time.
"It doesn't matter who I am, do you know who this old man on the ground is?"
Ye Qian asked with a smile. From what he heard just now, he could infer that the old man and the young man had only known each other for two days.
He was very curious about what the little beggar would do when he revealed his identity as an old man.
"Does it matter who he is?" the little beggar tilted his head and asked.
Of course he knew that the old man was an immortal, knew the magic of immortality, and gave him the elixir.
But he had a very bad feeling.
This person who suddenly appeared was not something he could deal with, even if he took the immortal's elixir.
"The entire Liangzhou is looking for the remnants of the Xinghai Sect, and he is one of them. If you hand him over to the people in the City Lord's Mansion, let alone a lifetime of prosperity, even if you want to enter Taoism and practice, it won't be a problem!"
Ye Qian made a brief introduction.
As soon as these words came out, the old man on the ground was filled with shock and despair.
He is already like this, how can anyone still recognize his legs!
Is it really God who wants to destroy his Xinghai Sect?
"Xinghai Sect, I know!"
There was a hint of longing in the little beggar's eyes. Of course he had heard of the name Xinghai Sect, it was an immortal sect.
He also knew that Xinghai Sect disciples were wanted in Liangzhou and the news spread throughout the city.
It is said that Xinghai Sect was punished by heaven!
"Old man, are you really an immortal from the Xinghai Sect?" the little beggar asked the old man on the ground eagerly.
"Yes!" The old man who was about to die suddenly regained some vitality, but it was still difficult to speak: "How did you find out that I am a disciple of Xinghai Sect?"
"After your cultivation reaches the seventh level of the Dao Peeping Realm, your soul will change in quality and will be tainted with the flavor of the cultivation techniques!" Ye Qian smiled calmly and said: "There is a flavor of the Xinghai Sect's techniques in your soul! If I read it correctly, you should be
Take away this body!"
This is not Ye Qian's nonsense. If not, he cannot really be sure that the old man is a disciple of Xinghai Sect.
Moreover, looking at the incompatibility between the old man's soul and his physical body, life and death hang on a thread, which is obviously a sign that the body seizing is not successful.
Ye Qian himself guessed this.
"Good eyesight!" The old man smiled bitterly, "I was originally an elder of the Xinghai Sect. The sect underwent great changes, and I was lucky enough to escape with my soul. The first time I took the body, I suffered a disaster not long after. This second time, it was not so good.
Good luck!"
The elder of the Xinghai Sect, that is at least a glimpse of the cultivation of the eighth level of the Tao Realm!
With this level of cultivation, I can take over two lives. Even if I am unlucky the second time and cast myself into a mortal who is about to expire, I am still lucky.
It is better than having to seize the body of a wild beast as a last resort.
"How about, I know someone from the City Lord's Mansion, how about I take him with me and we can receive the reward?"
Ye Qian ignored the Xinghai Sect old man and asked the little beggar.
If it was because he wanted to repay the favor of Xinghai Sect for such a token before, now he really appreciates this little beggar.
The answer was satisfactory, and Ye Qian did not hesitate to give this little beggar a chance.
Come anyway!
"No!" The little beggar shook his head, "Whatever you want, you can steal, cheat, or rob, but you can't betray others!"
