In this ancient city, there is poverty and weakness, and the gap between the rich and the poor is beyond imagination.
Jiang Chi was sitting in a restaurant, looking at the street with people coming and going, and couldn't help but frown secretly, "Now it seems that this is undoubtedly a Chinese chat room, but how can I get the benefits?"
Collect cheats like before?
I'm afraid there aren't many secrets in this world, and there aren't many secrets that can be collected.
"Unless the troubled times are brought to an end and great merits are achieved in this world, such merits will inevitably come. Then naturally some diamond bracelets can be stolen. This should be much more than the power of the origin of the world obtained by collecting secret books." Jiang Que thought secretly.
With.
After all, there aren't many secrets.
It’s already hard to win by relying on cheats.
In this way, stealing by doing something beneficial to the world and doing great merit has become his current only way to maximize profits.
While he was thinking, a voice came slowly, "Ning Caichen, a young student, has met my brother. I wonder if I can have a table with him?"
Jiang Chi took a casual look and saw that everyone around him was full, so he nodded in agreement.
But then he suddenly realized it and asked in surprise, "You...what did you just say your name was?"
The scholar was startled and quickly said, "Ning Caichen, a young student, is a scholar who has been unsuccessful for many years. Brother, why are you so surprised?"
He was not a famous person, so there was no need to be so surprised. Instead, he felt a little confused and frowned secretly.
At this time, Jiang Que said, "I was lucky enough to hear that Mr. Ning was a man of great talent. Now that I heard about it, I was very surprised."
After hearing this, Ning Caichen suddenly realized, "So that's it. Ning Caichen, a young student, has met my brother. Thank you very much for your kindness!"
"It doesn't matter." Jiang Chi waved his hand and said, "I am the only one here, so it is a kind of fate that I can sit on Brother Ning's stage."
There are not many people he admires, but there are a few special guys.
Xu Xian is one of them, and Ning Caichen in front of him is the second.
There is another person whom I might be able to meet.
"Brother, what you said is serious." Ning Caichen said quickly, "A young man is just a poor scholar. Although he has read a lot of poems and books and learned some books from saints and sages, it is far from enough."
Neither arrogant nor impatient, Ning Caichen has good character.
Compared with many scholars who have won the title of scholar or scholar, he is of higher quality.
It's rare.
It's a pity that after years of hard study, it was still difficult to get the illusory fame in the exam.
"Dare I ask my brother's name?" Ning Caichen asked quickly, "Meeting each other is fate. Ning Caichen, a young student, wanted to make friends with me, and I hope he can agree to it."
He also seemed to think Jiang Chi was a good person.
If you can make good friends with him, you may have a close friend.
Jiang Chi smiled faintly and said, "Jiang Chi was once a down-and-out scholar, but now he has no intention of continuing to obtain fame."
To him, fame, fortune and wealth are like passing clouds, like a floating cloud covering his eyes, he no longer cares about them.
For Ning Caichen, fame is his only way out.
Hearing Jiang Chi's words, Ning Caichen felt happy and said quickly, "I have seen Brother Jiang for such a young man. I hope you will take good care of me in the future."
"It's easy to say." Jiang Chi chuckled and said, "Now that the world is in chaos, life for us scholars is also difficult. Brother Ning, a talented person, failed to pass the exam. It is really a great misfortune for the world."
"Brother Jiang is right. I used to think that reading books about saints and sages and getting fame and fortune is the best way out. But after all these years, I still make a living by helping others collect accounts. Alas." Ning Caichen sighed inwardly.
.
Two days later, he went to collect the bill again.
Even this time when I came to the restaurant, I just ordered steamed buns.
Don't dare to eat anything else.
Seeing this, Jiang Chi had no choice but to say, "Brother Ning, since we are acquainted, why don't I treat you to this meal?"
Then, without waiting for Ning Caichen's consent, he asked the waiter to bring the food and wanted to have a drink with Ning Caichen. Ning Caichen, who had never received such courtesy before, couldn't help being surprised.
"Brother Ning, there is no need to worry. I have a small amount of money, so I can treat you to a meal." Jiang Chi explained, "Maybe there will be some things to trouble Brother Ning in the future. Brother Ning, just don't refuse."
"
After saying this, Ning Caichen suddenly woke up.
It turned out to be for the future.
Ning Caichen immediately held up his hands and said solemnly, "Since Brother Jiang is so generous, I will go through fire and water no matter what my instructions are from now on."
He spoke with sincerity and a sense of assurance.
After hearing Ning Caichen's assurance, Jiang Chi nodded with satisfaction and thought, "This is better. Maybe I can use you when I end the chaos in the world."
It’s better to get to know each other first.
But he, who was sitting next to Jiang Chi with a happy face, had no idea what Jiang Chi was thinking.
Little did he know that his future had already been planned by Jiang Chi.
After the meal was finished, Jiang Que calmly told Ning Caichen, "Brother Ning, you must never go to Lanruo Temple in the future. You are not allowed to go to that place. Remember!"
After saying this, he left directly.
But after hearing this, Ning Caichen was a little confused and murmured, "Where is Lanruo Temple? Why does Brother Jiang want me not to go there? Does he still know how to tell fortunes?"
This is quite possible.
After finishing the meal, Ning Caichen wanted to collect the bill.
But before he could get to the place where he collected the bill, it started to rain heavily, like tidal clouds, and like a violent storm.
His tattered little umbrella couldn't stop him at all, so that the account book in his backpack was soaked by the rain. When he arrived at the collection place, he took out the account book with blurred handwriting, but the shopkeeper didn't buy it at all.
It was only then that Ning Caichen felt like crying but had no tears left.
If the account is not received, then all the money he has will be used up, and he will have no food or shelter. For a weak scholar with no power to tie a chicken, it is simply a huge problem.
After discussing with the shopkeeper to no avail, he had no choice but to return home.
But he was shy about his money, so he had to ask passers-by, "Brother, is there any free accommodation nearby?"
on the street.
The man in question was slightly startled, glanced at Ning Caichen in surprise, and said with a smile, "Scholar, you are quite interesting. If you want to live for free, go to Lanruo Temple."
Ning Caichen "..."
He patted his forehead and suddenly remembered Jiang Chi's advice.
"Brother Jiang told me two days ago that I must never go to Lanruo Temple. This man also said that there are free accommodations in Lanruo Temple." Ning Caichen began to think about it and said thoughtfully, "Can it be said that Lanruo Temple is a terrible place?"
Can't go to the place?
But now I am penniless and have nowhere to go.
I don't have the choice either, so this is a bit difficult.
Should I go to Lanruo Temple or not?"
Ning Caichen was very hesitant!
It might be dangerous to go.
But if he doesn't go, he has nowhere to go now, which is an embarrassing problem.
However, all this was seen by Jiang Chi, who secretly thought, "The repair ability is really strong. It seems that Ning Caichen has no choice but to go to Lanruo Temple, but how can such a big drama be without me!"
