Chapter 24: Those things about stealing chickens and dogs

In Wangyou City, in the residence of Lin Xuanqing, the young master of the Xingyue Sect.

When she came back from her master, she put on a white gauze skirt, which made her temperament nearly 70% similar to her master's, which meant that her strength had not improved yet, otherwise, she would probably be another Mo Ruyue.

At this moment, Lin Xuanqing was walking in the garden. Today, the series of events from being spied on to seeing the strength of a first-grade sword cultivator to learning that she was going to the capital with her was enough for her to think about for a while.

Suddenly, she seemed to have stepped on something. She frowned and looked down, but it was a money bag.

She bent down to pick it up and looked at it carefully. She didn't care about how much silver was in it. To her, it was not bad. She just looked at the word "Su" sewn on the bag and seemed to think of something.

"Su...! The word 'Su' should be... the Su family in the capital!"

Lin Xuanqing tightened the money bag tightly. This was something left by the two lewd thieves. With her character, she would have to settle accounts with them sooner or later.



The three of them, who barely scraped together enough money to pay for the meal, walked out of the hotel under the cynicism of the waiter. None of them had a good look on each other.

"Su Ruyu! I told you, the money should be placed here with me. With my cautious character and love for money as much as my life. Even if I lose my life in the Xingyue Sect, I can't leave the money anywhere!"

When talking about the money, Jiang Ergou was angry. For the first time in his life, he had the opportunity to travel freely in the world, but Su Ruyu ruined it.

"What's the use of saying all this now? Do you think I'm willing to lose the money? It's not you! You pulled me and ran away without saying a word. With that level of turbulence, how could I not lose the money!"

"Okay, now you are blaming me. If I hadn't pulled you away, your head would have been moved. Can you still stand here and play tricks on me?"

On the side, the old man who remained silent seemed to be unable to bear it. The two people were bickering all the time, which made him very upset.

"Okay! Now that I don't have these, why did I go there earlier? How can the money run back on its own? If it were me, I should think about what to eat for the next meal! Now, the three of us are covered in blood

Shang Xia has lost all his money."

"What can I do? By the way, old man, aren't you a first-class expert? It's not difficult to hunt a pheasant and a mountain deer!"

Ergou had a sad look on his face when he mentioned money and food. He had already experienced what it felt like to be hungry without money, and now he really didn't want to experience it again.

"Pheasant? Mountain deer? Ergou, can you please keep your eyes open? This is the hinterland of Lingzhou, not in the mountain valleys before. If there are these things, it will be your turn to fight? It won't be long ago."

He was hunted and killed by the surrounding residents!"

"Then what do you think we should do? Although we just had a full meal in the store, we can only last until tomorrow morning at most. If we can't find anything to eat later, I don't think the three of us need to go to Qingzhou City.

, just go directly to dig three holes in the open space over there and lie down in them to wait for death!"

"What are you talking about that is depressing? How can a living person be choked to death by urine? Let's go, there is always a way!"

At the critical moment, it was the old man who stood up and made the final decision. After speaking, he ignored Jiang Ergou and Su Ruyu who were still angry with each other, and walked directly towards Qingzhou City!

Ergou and Su Ruyu stood there, looking at each other hatefully for several times, but saying nothing. Finally, the two of them stepped forward almost at the same time and followed the old man's footsteps.



The next day, the early morning sunlight was really dazzling, but what woke the three of them was not the uncomfortable sunlight, but their empty stomachs.

"Old man, I'm hungry

, what should we do! Don’t you think there is a way to find something to eat!”

Ergou was an impatient person and would just tell him what he had to say. Su Ruyu over there could still maintain a bit of a scholar's demeanor, but judging from the way he kept looking over here, he was probably too hungry to bear it.

After all, it is easy to get hungry when traveling and traveling. In addition, the three of them only ate one meal yesterday and camped in the open air all night. The sudden drop in temperature at night also consumed a lot of energy for the three of them.

"Why are you in a hurry? There is always a way, but I haven't figured it out yet!"

"Old man, by the time you come up with a solution, we will all starve to death, so what's the use of your solution!"

"You can think of it! You can even think of a way to break a big stone in my chest, why can't you do it now!"

The old man was also irritated by Ergou's words, and he spoke as if he was not hungry. Although my martial arts skills are good, old man, I am still hungry even if I don't eat!

"Let's do this! When we get to Qingzhou City, I will pawn my folding fan. This fan should be worth some money even in a pawn shop."

Su Ruyu felt that we were now three people who shared the same fate. In addition, the money was lost, so she had some responsibility. Although it was her own money that was lost, she still felt a little guilty, so she came up with the idea of ​​using it as a fan.

When Ergou heard Su Ruyu's words, his dimmed eyes brightened, but then dimmed again.

"Then we have to wait until we arrive in Qingzhou City! We are still half a month away from Qingzhou City! We have starved to death before we even reached Qingzhou City. Let me see, you still have to keep that fan

Let me bury you with you, maybe your family will be able to find your grave based on this in the future and move you back, and burn some paper money for me and the old man by the way!"

The three of them discussed for a long time but couldn't come up with any good ideas, so they had no choice but to continue on the road dejectedly. It was impossible to dig a hole and bury themselves like Ergou said!

In the afternoon, Ergou was a little better. He had been trained no matter what. Although he was very hungry, he could barely bear it. The old man looked like nothing had happened and he was the most normal person.

Probably, the one who suffered the most was Su Ruyu. She had grown up in a world of silver soup and gold spoons. How could she have ever suffered like this? Now she is so hungry that she is almost out of shape, and she no longer has the demeanor of a scholar.

"Er Gou, I'm dying. I really can't walk! I think you should go with the old man! Take my folding fan as well and pawn it as a pawn in Qingzhou City to go to the capital. Tell my family and let them come.

Take my bones back. Also, tell my father that my son has let him down."

"What are you talking about, Su Ruyu! This person will starve to death after not eating for many days. You have never been hungry since you were a child. Now you are so hungry that you can't walk. When you really can't stand it anymore, I will grab it and give it to you."

Come grab a meal."

Then, Er Gou supported Su Ruyu and walked for a while. Suddenly, a farmhouse appeared in the eyes of the three of them, and Er Gou's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Xiao Yuyu, if you hold on a little longer, I will find a way."

"What method, how to do it! I will go too"

When Su Ruyu heard that she could find something to eat, she regained a lot of her strength. This could be regarded as looking at the plum blossoms to quench her thirst!

"Hahaha, you saw the farmer in front of you. It's a matter of discretion. We have to go and get some secretly."

"Ergou, isn't this bad!"

Su Ruyu still couldn't let go of her scholarly attitude, just like Ergou did when he went to a brothel for the first time. She felt a little embarrassed for some reason.

"What's wrong, don't think of yourself as a scholar now, you are just a charlatan. As a charlatan, you don't need to care about these many details, but you have to remember how much you took.

, When you have money in the future, you will return it to others a hundred times a thousand times."

"This..., okay then! Ergou, just like you said, what should we do!"

"Come on, let's go over and check the situation first!"

Then, the three people walked over furtively, and soon arrived at the farmyard, and walked around the yard.

"It seems that this family has gone to the fields and hasn't come back yet. Let's go in and get some food and then leave. Old man, just stay outside and take us out at the critical moment."

Ergou quickly clarified the division of labor between the three of them, but it was a pity for the old man that the ability to control the sky, which only second-grade masters and above were worthy of possessing, now had to be used to run away.

As soon as they finished speaking, Ergou and Su Ruyu climbed in quickly.

Apart from anything else, there are quite a lot of things in the yard. There is a vegetable garden that is not too small, and a chicken coop with more than ten or twenty chickens. There is also a fat white chicken in the pig pen.

A fat little pig. This shows that this family puts a lot of thought into this little fat pig.

Ergou rushed to the chicken coop and drove all the chickens out, and saw more than a dozen eggs scattered around.

Outside, Su Ruyu was attacking the chickens that had been driven out by Ergou, but probably because she had never done such rough work before, she worked hard for a while and failed to catch a single chicken. Instead, she was caught by a group of hens.

It was so fun to play around with.

"Xiao Yuyu, don't touch those chickens! Those are other people's egg-laying chickens! Don't take any of them! Go to the vegetable garden over there and pull out more radishes and cucumbers. That's the staple food."

Ergou looked back at Su Ruyu who was catching chickens and gave him a warning. Su Ruyu heard Ergou's words and lingered on the chickens for a while, then turned around and went to the vegetable garden.

After Ergou saw Su Ruyu going to the vegetable garden, he also bent down to pick up the eggs on the ground and carefully placed them in his arms.

This time he stole something. Um...no, in Ergou's eyes, this is not stealing, it's borrowing! It's just an emergency. When he becomes successful, these will all be paid back. Every bit of it along the way, he can

I kept them all in my heart silently.

After grabbing their things, the three of them ran for a long distance without stopping, fearing that they would be caught by farmers who suddenly returned home. By the time they stopped, the sky had already darkened.



At night, in an unknown forest in Lingzhou, three people were munching on a few eggs and a pile of radishes and cucumbers. Looking at the delicious smell, someone who didn't know it might have thought they were eating a Manchu-Han banquet!

"Er Gou, I really belong to you! You are still smart. If I run out alone, I will definitely starve to death."

Su Ruyu said while handling a half-cooked radish.

"Hahaha, that's natural. However, Xiao Yuyu, just like I told you before, if you become successful in the future, you must remember this favor. These must be paid back! This is also a world of martial arts.

The rules above.”

"Yeah, yeah! I will definitely come back and pay you back later."

Su Ruyu, who was chewing a mouthful of radish, answered inarticulately.

The old man on the side felt a little nostalgic and relieved when he heard these words. Finally, he did not waste his efforts in cultivating these two young boys. In them, he could see the loyalty of the world that he had not seen for a long time, just like when he and he were young.

Same as the other person.

Just when Su Ruyu finished chewing one radish and was about to take another one, Ergou patted her outstretched hand.

"Okay, as long as you're almost full, we still have to eat for several days? Why, if you're full after one meal, don't worry about being hungry the next one?"

After hearing Ergou's words, Su Ruyu felt that there was a great truth in it, so she took back her hand angrily.
