He was wearing ragged clothes with patches all over his clothes, with unkempt hair and a bamboo stick in his hand and a black bowl beside him. At first glance, you could tell that he was a complete beggar. He had all the necessary equipment for a beggar, except to find a crowded place, shout a few times, and beg.
At this time, a song was heard coming from the beggar's mouth.
Go out early in the morning and stay till dusk
I feel dizzy after not eating a meal
Hey, kind uncle and auntie
Give me some change, a few coins
Go out early in the morning and stay till dusk
I feel dizzy after not eating a meal
Hey, kind uncle and auntie
Give me some change, a few coins
This song, coming out of the beggar's mouth, brings out the beggar's sigh and ups and downs. The helplessness from life makes people can't help but have strong sympathy, and subconsciously have a little more pity. An impulse to help him arises unconsciously in the heart.
"He's really pitiful. He's so hungry that he's dizzy. It must be hard to find food in this dilapidated temple. He's alone in this wilderness and could die at any time. I don't know how he managed to survive."
Wang Dahu shook his head and said.
"Give him a box of military lunch."
Yi Tianxing frowned slightly. He didn't like beggars. It wasn't because they were dirty, but because they had hands and feet but didn't know how to be self-reliant. He always hoped that the people of the human race could live up to the principle of "the heaven moves vigorously, and the gentleman strives for self-improvement". Rely on their own hands to create the future, instead of lying on the ground, holding a broken bowl, lazily waiting for others' charity. From the moment of begging, even their own dignity is lost.
He does not approve of this behavior.
People should live with dignity. If they don’t even have dignity, what is the difference between being alive and being a walking corpse
He didn't like beggars from the bottom of his heart.
"Yes, my lord."
Wang Dahu quickly took out a box of military lunch, came to the old beggar, put it down, and said, "There is food in it, which is a reward from the lord. It is not easy for you to survive here. If you are willing, you can go with us when we leave tomorrow. I will ask the lord to take you with us. When you arrive in Xuanhuang City, you don't have to beg for a living, and you can live the life you want."
Looking at the old beggar in front of him, Wang Dahu also felt a little compassion and couldn't help but speak. In fact, he didn't like beggars either. There were no beggars in Xuanhuang City. Even if they were beggars, they could practice martial arts and become self-reliant in the city. Even if they didn't have any skills, they could still find some work, such as hunting beasts or doing odd jobs in the city. They would not go hungry.
Beggars are looked down upon.
Even those who were physically disabled after fighting with ferocious beasts would not beg for alms.
When the old beggar heard this, he grinned and said, "Thank you very much, kind man."
As he spoke, he couldn't wait to open the lunch box. The sight of the steaming rice and the fragrant beast meat made him want to eat. Without hesitation, he opened his mouth and started to eat. He ate very carefully, not leaving out a single grain of rice.
"Let's set up camp here and be on guard tonight. We may encounter various attacks and assassinations."
Jia Xu looked around and saw that this was the best place to camp. He couldn't find a better place in a short period of time. He immediately gave the order.
All the soldiers in the army sat on the ground with ease, opened their lunch boxes and started eating.
"That Green Emperor guy hasn't come back yet. Don't let him be knocked out by those aliens and stewed in a big pot. To be honest, I'm a little uncomfortable without seeing that guy."
Ye Zhiqiu took out the lunch box, ate while glancing around and murmured.
The Green Emperor, after a battle with the Kobolds, mysteriously went into the wilderness and disappeared. Yi Tianxing naturally knew about this, but he also knew that the Green Emperor was full of evil. If someone really wanted to target it, they would end up losing more than they gain. In terms of safety, there was no need to worry too much. If you keep it with you, you're afraid that it will get excited and start howling.
Not being able to distinguish between friend and foe is not a good thing.
As for when it will come back, Yi Tianxing himself doesn’t care. Anyway, he has a contract and the Green Emperor will come back sooner or later.
"I don't want to see it."
Wang Dahu's body stiffened for a moment, and he immediately expressed his opinion.
That is a time bomb that can explode at any time.
There was not much chatter in the army. Everyone was eating in a hurry. After eating, they put away their lunch boxes. They began to practice their skills and continued to cultivate. The bloody evil spirits were constantly absorbed and refined, turning into true qi in their bodies. Or they were constantly condensing runes. They seized every minute to improve their cultivation and increase their combat power.
Night is gradually falling.
There were fires all around, so that there was still a glimmer of light in the darkness, making it not so scary.
In the dark of the abandoned temple, waves of terrifying roars of beasts and howls of wolves kept ringing. If it were an ordinary person, he would be scared to death on the spot. In the night sky, there were gusts of cold wind. It seemed that there were ghosts hiding. In many strange stories, temples were regarded as important places for ghosts to live. I don't know why ghosts like places like temples.
Before I knew it, it was already late at night.
At this time, people's attention is almost exhausted. They are most likely to be absent-minded and have difficulty concentrating.
Ding ding ding!!
At this moment, suddenly, a clear knocking sound was heard. In the dark night, it was almost harsh. All the soldiers opened their eyes instantly and looked in the direction of the sound. Their bodies were filled with energy, as if they would launch an attack in the next second.
"It's the old beggar."
When I looked over, I found that the sound was made by the old beggar hitting the broken bowl beside him with chopsticks.
"Little brother, you treated this old beggar to a meal. In return, how about I treat you to a drink of water? Do you dare to drink a beggar's water?" The old beggar saw Yi Tianxing turning his head to look at him, and grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"Why not?"
When Yi Tianxing saw this, a strange light flashed in his eyes. He stood up suddenly and agreed.
"My lord, be careful of fraud."
Jia Xu's face darkened and he spoke.
"It's okay, this is a human, not an alien." Yi Tianxing said with a calm smile, and walked towards the old beggar decisively.
"He walks like a dragon and strode like a tiger. He has the aura of a king, luck like the sea, murderous spirit like blood, and will like iron. This is the aura of a pioneer, but his fate is too strange, like a fog, difficult to see through. If nothing unexpected happens, this is a person favored by heaven. The fate of a person favored by heaven is unpredictable."
The old beggar leaned against the wall, sat up, and looked at Yi Tianxing carefully. His cloudy old eyes seemed to be able to see unusual things. He could actually tell the identity of the person favored by heaven at a glance, and even see his luck and fate. Even Master Lu's eyes of seeing qi could not see this.
"This beggar is really not simple."
Long before, Yi Tianxing had secretly guessed that this beggar should not be an ordinary beggar. He could not only survive in such a temple, but also be alone. No matter how you look at it, it reveals a bit of weirdness. If it were an ordinary beggar, he believed that even if there were a hundred of them, they would have been dead. This might also be a strange person.
"Little brother, I see a ray of spiritual light gushing out from your crown. It is shining brightly, and you have a body of well-trained muscles and bones. If you embark on the path of physical training, you will definitely make rapid progress. The most amazing thing is that you have the aura of a king, and you are destined to be a regional overlord. A regional overlord will definitely not be short of women. With three thousand concubines in the harem, a man will be under a lot of pressure. How many emperors have died on women's bellies."
The old beggar looked at Yi Tianxing with shining eyes, saliva flying from his mouth, and spat out words one by one like firecrackers.
"But don't be afraid, this old beggar has a solution. Look here."
The old beggar grinned and lifted up his clothes.
All I saw was a number of ancient jade books hidden inside the clothes.
At a glance, there are probably at least dozens of books.
Hiss!!
Seeing this scene, Jia Xu, Wang Dahu, Ye Zhiqiu and others who followed him gasped on the spot. The light on these jade books could be seen at a glance. These were definitely martial arts books. In today's troubled times, they were the most precious and valuable resources.
Importance is absolutely the most important.
An old beggar actually had dozens of martial arts manuals in his hands. This made them feel dizzy the moment they saw it. Their minds were greatly shocked.
"Are you kidding me? There are so many techniques, how can I not find one?"
"Wow, you're almost as good as a bookseller. What kind of skills are these?"
"It's incredible, it's really incredible. This beggar is a strange person."
Ye Zhiqiu and the others secretly took a deep breath, and then looked at the jade book skills with shining eyes.
You know, there are quite a few martial arts books in the Sutra Library. It can even be said that, at present, it is definitely the most abundant in the entire human race, from low-level to the most advanced martial arts. But there is one thing, the martial arts in the Sutra Library can only be practiced by oneself and cannot be passed on to others after making a great oath. Many cultivators still hope to have their own unique magical skills.
This can greatly increase one's combat effectiveness and make it less likely to be targeted.
Now seeing so many skills, my heart is burning with excitement.
"Hey, beggar, I have the best dual cultivation techniques here. As long as you practice them, I guarantee that you will be able to seduce a thousand women every day and your penis will never fall. Moreover, your cultivation and mana will increase significantly. I guarantee that you will have a son if you want to, and a daughter if you want to. To dominate a place, having offspring is very important. With these techniques, you will not only be a real man, but also a man among men."
The old beggar began to spit again and kept talking.
