Chapter 54 Seniority Upgrade

Author: Unlucky Caffeine

Li Laishun avoided the injury on his palm, held a cold sesame pancake between his fingers, hooked a string of two small fish two fingers wide, jumped off a small boat on the Lushui River, and rushed into Qingyi Street.

Li Laishun ran wildly all the way, passing Mrs. Hu who sold flowers, Zhu's Tea House selling tea, and Aunt Gong selling vegetables. He could only hear the pattering of a pair of tattered straw sandals on the soles of his feet against the cold bricks.

"Hey! Li Laishun!"

Aunt Gong stopped him and looked at him suspiciously.

"What have you been doing these two days? I used to get off work, and it was as if I was living on the street every day, unwilling to leave. In the past two days, I have watched you get off the boat and go into the alley every day. In the afternoon, There was no trace of me, and it didn't look like I had found another good job. I was smiling like a flower."

"Did you find gold or silver in that shabby house?"

Li Laishun had an unexpected encounter, but he didn't want to say anything, let alone this cruel old woman. He worked for all the merchants in half the street, but Gong Cui was the only one who tried every means to deduct his wages and deducted half of his spiritual stone. He was furious. It even scratches people.

No one likes her, but she just likes to catch people chatting.

He rolled his eyes, pretending to be shy, and said: "Ah, Aunt Gong! You don't know, there is a new oiran in the Gongzhu Pavilion, named Xiao Miaoxian. She shows up every night, and everyone rushes to see it. , if you don’t go early, you won’t be able to get a good seat!”

This aunt's man is always fond of whoring. When Li Laishun poked her painful foot, the aunt's expression changed as expected: "Shameless, skinless, shameless, shameless little hooligan, don't learn from others. Sigh!"

Li Laishun was not angry and ran away again.

He was holding the pancake that had not been blown through by the cold wind with one hand, and he was imagining how he would look like an immortal in the future, grinning from ear to ear.

After twisting and turning all the way to Baini Alley, I jumped over the dirty water, bamboo baskets, and wooden boxes thrown by the neighbors, and got into an unchained hut at the end of the alley.

This house is made of earthen walls. The inside is earthy, dark, and the air is turbid. It is very cramped.

There was a mat stuffed with reeds spread on the straw in the corner, and a person was lying on it, covered with a layer of mat and resting on a broken stool.

Fortunately, there was a yellow dog lying at the feet of the lying man.

It can be seen that in this small house with four bare walls, the most warm things are the two layers of mats and the dog.

Li Laishun carried the sesame cake and touched it carefully. Just as he was about to speak, he found that the person lying on the mat was already awake, with a pair of lifeless eyes open, but he was motionless.

Li Laishun rubbed his hands and said, "Um, Grandma Immortal, are you okay? Are you free?"

Feeling that it was too abrupt, he added rather painfully: "I brought pancakes and fish. I'll give them to you. If you can leave a bite for me, that's fine."

The man sat up and said in a hoarse voice: "Give me some pancakes and you can eat the rest."

Li Laishun was overjoyed and hurriedly responded: "Hey, hey, okay."

After saying that, he scooped water into the jar and boiled it.

After a while, the water boiled, and he hurriedly served it to the man.

The water was boiled in a jar where her adoptive father had made medicine before his death. The smell of the medicine was so strong that it was no different from real medicine, but she drank it without frowning.

He brought this man back late at night two days ago.

At that time, he was so hungry that he couldn't sleep. He ran out in the middle of the night to see who had left leftover food at their door, and maybe he could pick up some secretly. As soon as he reached the entrance of the alley, he found someone lying on the ground.

This man was wearing a black suit, and his wrists were bulging, as if he were wearing bracelets.

He could tell by the moonlight that her face was unusually red, and he thought she had a fever and was unconscious.

But looking at the material of her clothes, they are better than his tattered linen that no one has patched. Maybe she has a spiritual stone on her.

Li Laishun was raised like a free rein by his ill adoptive father. He has experienced all the difficulties in the world. He knows the most difficult hardship in the world is poverty. As long as he can get spiritual stones, let alone steal them, if he can

When he grows up and has strength, he is willing to rob him.

Although he has never actually stolen it, he has such a great opportunity in front of him. What a good man he is if he doesn’t seize it!

He took half of her money and pawned her bracelet.

Seeing how pitiful the girl was on the ground, he comforted himself and thought: In return, he would drag her to the end of the alley and give her a bowl of water. Otherwise, she would lie on the ground at the entrance of the alley without knowing where she was, waiting for morning.

The dirty old bachelors in the alley found out and didn't know what to do.

After being mentally prepared, Li Laishun swallowed hard and reached out for the girl's bracelet-wearing hand.

It rained the day before, and the moonlight was shining brightly this night.

Facing the moonlight, Li Laishun only heard a "bang" sound, and a pale sword flashed suddenly.

When my neck felt cold and touched, it was covered in blood.

Only then did he react and looked at the man tremblingly, but first he saw the sharp tip of the knife a few inches away from his neck.

He didn't even see clearly when the man pulled out the knife - he was so nervous just now that he didn't even see the two short knives hanging on the man's waist.

When he was working as a waiter in a teahouse, he listened to storytellers and knew that he was meeting a legendary capable person. He was even an immortal.

The man did not open his eyes, as if he was doubtful that he was not dead, and flicked his wrist slightly, as if he was going to continue to use the knife.

Li Laishun quickly knelt down, holding the slightest hope of not being killed, and kowtowed desperately: "Immortal, have mercy on me! I am just a mortal! I was just ignorant and wanted to steal your things! I won't dare to do it again! I am willing

I work as a cow and a horse for the immortal, and I beg the immortal to spare my life!"

Pressing his head against the dirty bricks, he saw blood drops from his neck dripping into the cracks of the blue bricks.

After waiting for a long time, the man made no sound.

There was only a "clang" sound, and the knife fell to the ground.

Fainted again.

Li Laishun thought about it for a long time, then gritted his teeth and didn't dare to take action anymore.

It was said that wealth was gained through danger, so he simply dragged her back home and took care of her for the time being, hoping that she would wake up and do some good to him.

It would be best if you could teach him some immortal magic and get rid of his mortal identity!

Half an hour later, a dog came to the house, holding half a meat bun from nowhere in its mouth. It refused to let him touch it, and only stayed by the girl's side. It must be her fairy dog.

In order to take credit when the time came, Li Laishun covered her with the only mat in the house, and she shivered most of the night.

When the man woke up, Li Laishun quickly offered him a lot of credit.

The man ate the steamed buns brought by the dog, drank three bowls of water brought by him, and turned his head in his direction. Only then did he realize that this man was blind.

The blind man's first words surprised him.

The blind man said: "Thank you."

Li Laishun was even more convinced that this guy was an immortal. How could ordinary neighbors be so polite? He could count the number of times he had heard this sentence in the past ten years on both hands.

Look, this is self-cultivation!

The blind man said the second sentence: "Do you know where blind men are recruited to work in Yuebin City?"

"It's been three days since I came here. I've asked for all kinds of jobs, but no one wants them. I'm really short of spiritual stones now."

You are in need, and so am I!

Li Laishun, who had expected good remuneration, became discouraged and said bluntly: "Yuebin City does not recruit people with disabilities."

The man's tone was quite puzzled: "Why?"

"All living beings reincarnate in the six paths of reincarnation. People who are born with disabilities have done evil in their previous lives and were reincarnated as disabled people."

"ah?"

The blind man didn't understand at all, so Li Laishun spent a long time talking.

The man didn't interrupt, just listened carefully. He seemed to have a really good temper. From time to time he would frown or ask questions.

Li Laishun looked at her look and became bolder again after speaking. His mind changed and his heart suddenly started beating wildly. He said flatteringly: "I save your life, I wonder if there will be any reward.?"

This was a help, but it was far from "saving a life", but the blind man still responded in a good-natured manner: "What do you want?"

"You have great magical powers. You look like a legendary immortal at first glance. Can you teach this villain one or two immortal tricks? I'm not seeking wealth or life, just self-defense."

"I'm not an immortal, and I don't know magic." The blind man responded quickly.

I think so. It's impossible for the immortal's magic to be passed on to someone like him who doesn't have a serious family.

Li Laishun asked for trouble and smiled awkwardly, but then he heard her say: "But if you want to learn swordsmanship, I can teach you the basics."

Li Laishun's eyes lit up: "Thank you, Master Immortal! Thank you, Master Immortal!"

"Don't call me Master"

Li Laishun changed his tune even faster: "Thank you, Grandma Immortal, thank you, Grandma Immortal!"

After hearing this, the blind man's face twisted, but his lips murmured, as if he wanted to say something, but he did not refute.

Li Laishun accepted this title as an immortal.

A new spirit beast is coming!
