Chapter 8 Worries about Beanbags!

Dinner is pie, porridge, and pickles.

The pie is the leftover stuffing from the steamed buns eaten in the morning, and the bean buns are filled with half a fan of pork and four heads of cabbage, and fried.

The porridge is white porridge, and the crispy ones are specially fried bean buns.

The pickles are not radish, but spicy cabbage and shredded bamboo shoots.

The pie has a thin crust and large fillings, and is fried to a crispy texture. Especially the pie, which has a diameter as large as a basin. Jason's mouth is full of oil when he eats it.

A bite of pie, a bite of porridge, a bite of pickles.

It's really just right.

It even made Jason feel like he was back at the dinner table in his hometown.

It can be called delicious.

With the slightest hint of "hometown" flavor, it immediately becomes delicious.

Suddenly, Jason swept away the dinner table like a whirlwind.

At this time, Doubao had just brought out a bowl of white porridge from the kitchen.

Where are the ten cakes I baked?

Where is the Yitong porridge I cooked?

Where is the pot of vegetables I mixed?

Doubao stood there blankly.

She thought that after experiencing it twice, she had figured out Jason's appetite. Each meal was prepared by adding 30% of the previous meal, but why wasn't it enough?

Why is the owner's stomach like a bottomless pit?

Are all warriors so edible?

No wonder the owner has so much ability but doesn’t have much money. He must have eaten everything, right?

According to the restaurant owner's appetite, these apprentices' tuition fees will not leave much left except for buying groceries.

Especially recently, the price of pork has increased again.

Why don't we fire those two old ladies?

It's worth saving a little bit.

Doubao frowned as he thought about it.

She didn't mind Jason eating too much. On the contrary, she liked Jason sitting at the dining table and eating happily.

However, she thought she needed to save Jason some money.

After all, everything has just begun to get on track, and there are still many places to spend money.

The sandbags and wooden dummies in the martial arts hall are all wear and tear, as well as the uniform clothes for apprentices, etc. These are all the face of the martial arts hall and cannot be saved.

Sure enough, not only did I have to quit two old ladies, I also had to eat less!

Doubao thought silently.

Then--

Wow!

Crisp, the sound of ocean friction and collision.

Even if you don't pay attention, you can clearly distinguish the bean bags.

It's like seeing a 100-watt light bulb at night.

When Doubao looked up, he saw a money bag.

Very familiar, she sewed it for Jason.

It was flat when I gave it to you, but now it's so bulging that I can't put it down at all.

"I have some savings."

Jason said very calmly, opened the money bag and poured out the ocean, gold leaves and paper notes inside.

Originally there were 21 yuan in the money bag, but later 103 yuan, 10 gold leaves and 31 yuan in paper notes were seized from Zhao Yang's group.

The 100 gold leaves obtained from Chen Tong were placed elsewhere.

"so much?!"

Doubao's eyes suddenly widened.

Except for the apprentices paying tuition on the opening day, she had never seen so much money.

You know, when buying food every day, she only brings 2-3 yuan. This is because the restaurant owner can eat and must have meat. Otherwise, an ordinary family of four only takes 1 yuan a week, or

Had a pretty good time.

After all, the best restaurant outside Wuguan Street, Zuixianglou, only costs less than 5 oceans per table for a high-end table.

And when she went to the wet market to buy a pound of pork leg, it only cost 1 dime. This was because of the recent price increase. Before, it was only 9 cents. For people like her, if she bought more, she could also take some pig intestines and big bones with her.

"Leave it to you."

Jason put the 31-yuan note back into his money bag, and then pushed the rest of the ocean and gold leaves to Doubao.

Doubao, who had never directly dealt with so much money, was immediately stunned.

She raised her head and looked at the face that was usually serious but now had a smile on her face. She opened her lips slightly and wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything at all. All that was left was a warmth in her chest.

Her owner trusts her wholeheartedly.

From saving her, to teaching her to practice boxing, to letting her manage the martial arts gym, and now to entrusting her with all his wealth, these are all trusts.

No one has ever believed her so much.

Deeply moved, Doubao's eye circles turned red.

"Don't worry, owner, I will definitely save this money..."

"No need to save, just buy more food."

"Don't worry, the money will not be short."

"Don't forget that you can get a bonus of five hundred yuan from me tonight."

Jason said with a smile.

At this time, Doubao finally thought of what his owner was going to do that night.

She didn't stop it.

How can you go back on something you promised in public?

A warrior's promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold.

She understands.

Therefore, after Jason agreed, Doubao would not stop him.

However, the bean bag is not nothing.

Doubao got up and returned to his room, then mysteriously placed a bag in front of Jason.

"Master, please change into this."

Doubao said in a low voice.

"This is?"

Jason twitched his nose and looked at the opened baggage. Inside was a black outfit, a top and trousers, and a pair of cloth shoes with milled soles.

The fine stitching on it is exactly the same as that on the money bag, so it is obviously sewn from a bean bag.

However, that's not what Jason focused on.

What he was concerned about was that in his perception, which was ten times higher than that of ordinary people, this powerful outfit had some "flavor".

The smell was very familiar to him.

And immediately, Doubao gave the answer.

"lime!"

“I sewed lime into the sleeves and trouser legs!”

Doubao said directly, and then, after Doubao carefully opened a corner for Jason to see, he immediately picked up the needle and thread to sew the top.

While sewing, Doubao said: "Master, have you seen this thread? During the fight, you pinched the thread with your hands, and then punched hard, and the lime in your sleeves was able to scatter! Master, you

Remember, the left sleeve is ordinary lime, the right sleeve is mixed with croton powder, the left trouser leg is mixed with aconite powder, and the right trouser leg is mixed with lily of the valley powder."

"Master, please remember that this time is not a fight in the ring, but a real battle of life and death. Any accident may happen. Therefore, if you encounter a strong man, Master, please don't hesitate to strike directly. You will be better off alive than before."

Everything is important, Doubao will be here waiting for you to come back!"

As Doubao spoke, he looked at Jason with tears in his eyes.

A pitiful look.

However, holding this set of clothes, Jason felt a little numb.

When he watched Doubao practice boxing before, he even wondered whether he should tell Doubao to prepare some lime or something.

It looks like now?

He is completely dwarfed by the big witch.

Croton, a common laxative, is just fine.

However, aconite and lily of the valley are both very poisonous.

It is fatal in the true sense of the word.

Paired with lime, these things will smear the face, let alone ordinary people, even he may be affected by it.

Sure enough, it would not be that simple for a weak woman to escape from the wilderness to a mountain city.

Jason thought, but didn't ask further questions.

Instead, he picked up his clothes and went back to his room to change.

Life in the 'City That Never Sleeps' has already given him his own fighting habits.

What happened to lime?

He also used 'golden juice' as a weapon.

Although it is not very harmful and insulting, it is extremely powerful and really useful.

The clothes fit well, and there is no snagging between the legs when punching or shaking, and the lime and medicinal powder hidden inside are not a bit sluggish.

Pushing the door open, Doubao stood there holding a black cloak.

He raised his hand and put the cloak on Jason.

The cloak was made of satin, but Jason felt that there was liquid flowing inside. Then, while Doubao carefully helped Jason sort out his clothes, he said in a low voice: "I used animal skin as the base for the cloak, and inside it is stored the juice of the dripping Guanyin."

The outside is covered with satin. Master, when you encounter a strong man with a weapon, just take off your cloak and throw it at him."

Following Doubao's words, Jason could already imagine that scene.

The strong man will most likely split the cloak with one strike.

Then……

Juice bath of Dripping Water Guanyin.

When he was chopping, he opened his mouth like he was shouting.

Hmm...

It's a bit unimaginable.

"Well, I'll be careful."

Jason nodded.

Seeing Jason's expression unchanged, Doubao breathed a sigh of relief.

She has been hesitant to hand over these things to her owner.

She was really worried that her owner would look down on her because of these things.

Fortunately, no.

The owner of the hotel is still the same as before.

It's really great.

Doubao let out a sigh of relief, followed Jason, and sent Jason out of the martial arts gym.

Outside the door, Jia Youcai was already waiting.

Four patrolmen, two rickshaws.

"Master, I will guard the martial arts gym carefully and wait for you to come back."

As Jason boarded the rickshaw, Beanbao waved.

"Mr. Mu, how about I leave two brothers to help guard the door?"

"Sister Doubao is the only one in the martial arts gym, which is a bit unsafe."

"In the afternoon, a big case happened. Strong men who came from nowhere killed Zhao Yang and his gang of desperadoes, and also set fire to everything."

Jia Youcai, who was sitting in another rickshaw, did not forget to seize the opportunity to show his courtesy.

With a wave of his hand, the two patrol officers stood at the door of the Mu Shi Martial Arts Gym.

That guy's name is Zhao Yang?

Jason instantly knew who Jia Youcai was talking about.

It may not be him who kills people.

It's not necessarily him who set the fire.

However, there is a high probability that he will be the one responsible for murder and arson this afternoon.

"Zhao Yang is just a bastard. He once wiped out his master's whole family because of a trivial matter. We have been hunting for this bastard for many years but still haven't found him. It's a good thing that he was killed by a strong man this time."

As if he was worried that Jason didn't know who Zhao Yang was, Jia Youcai said quickly.

"Um."

"Where are those bodies?"

"The corpses of the four chief catchers from the east, west, south, and north, and more than a dozen masters."

Jason changed the subject without any trace.

"It's in the widow's office of the government office."

"The master also lives in the government office."

"Just a drop in."

Jia Youcai answered, and then urged his subordinates to go faster.

Although his ability is not strong, after so many years, Jia Youcai also knows what to do when encountering trouble.

This is especially true when it comes to examining corpses.

Corpses can talk!

This is what the old man often said in the past.

He listened to it countless times.

Although I don’t know how to speak, some people always have the ability to make corpses speak. The master of the Mu Pavilion in front of me should be such a person.

With Jia Youcai leading the way, Jason arrived at the widow's house unimpeded.

Including the corpses of the four chief arresters from the southeast, northwest and northwest, a total of fifteen corpses were neatly placed in the brothel and covered with white linen cloth.

"Master Mu, please watch first. I'm at the door. If you need anything, call me."

As Jia Youcai said this, he withdrew with a look of fear on his face.

It's not like he hasn't seen corpses before.

As a head catcher, Jia Youcai has seen more corpses than most people.

However, it was the first time for Jia Youcai to see such a tragic corpse as in this incident.

Moreover, I don’t want to see him a second time.

Jason doesn't care.

After Jia Youcai exited the room, he opened the white linen and looked at them one by one.

Most of the corpses were cut in half, including that of Beicheng's chief arrester.

The two chief arresters, Nan and Xicheng, had their throats crushed, and their hands and feet were twisted into twists. It was obvious that the person who took action was a person who was very good at grappling.

However, what Jason was more concerned about was the corpse of the East City Chief Constable.

Because, he found traces of projectiles on the other party's body.

It's the kind of projectile fired from a musket.

"gunpowder?!"

Jason narrowed his eyes.

He spent too much time in this copy world and received too little information.

You can only infer something by observing your surroundings.

For example: gunpowder weapons.

According to what he saw, gunpowder weapons should exist in this copy world, and had already gone through their initial rudimentary development and entered a near-modern scale.

But that's just speculation.

Until this moment, I saw the projectiles of the fire gun.

"The development is slower than expected...but the power is a bit beyond imagination."

Jason looked at the corpse of the East City Chief Constable and fell into deep thought.

The opponent was extremely tall, with extremely strong bones and muscles. Even after death, there was still a faint metallic glow left on his skin. Obviously, the so-called invulnerability should be true.

But unfortunately, he was shot down.

"Did you hit the cover by accident?"

"still……"

"Is this weapon specially made?"

Jason thought as he walked out of the widow's workshop.

"Master Mu, what do you think?"

Jia Youcai came over immediately.

"That's almost it."

Jason answered.

"Then you come with me, the elder is already waiting."

After Jia Youcai finished speaking, he led the way.

In the living room, a thin man with a pale face was waiting there.

The other person's face was pale and he coughed from time to time.

However, his eyes were still bright, especially when he saw Jason walking in, he felt a lot more energetic.

"Thank you, Master Mu, for lending a helping hand. I would be very grateful to you."

The eldest man of the mountain city had a humble attitude at this time, and even changed his name.

"You should be paid, as you should be."

Jason answered calmly.

This made Li Deshang stunned for a moment, and then he laughed.

"But he also has real abilities."

"It's not like the guys on other martial arts streets who are just fishing for fame."

"After this difficult time, I will definitely take care of these bastards."

When Li Deshang said this, he couldn't help but become angry again.

He even started coughing violently.

Jia Youcai on the side immediately came over and slapped his back.

"Don't worry, sir. With Master Mu here, there will definitely be no problem."

Jia Youcai comforted him.

"Um."

Li Deshang nodded.

He knew much more than Jia Youcai. Looking at the silent Jason sitting aside, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and said: "Master Mu, if you can help Xiaguan through the crisis this time, Xiaguan

I am willing to provide you with a 'secret medicine'."
