Xiang Nan was stunned when he heard this.
"We have one in Qixia Town?! Are you sure?" He looked at Yan Xiaoliu doubtfully.
"Of course I am sure, he is on Dengshi Street." Yan Xiaoliu explained, "It was said that there was a famine in his hometown and he could no longer survive, so he came here to seek refuge with his relatives. Unexpectedly, his relatives moved away, so he planned to sell himself. . Many people are gathered around to watch."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan nodded, "In that case, let's go over and have a look."
With that said, he and Yan Xiaoliu left home and came to Dengshi Street.
Sure enough, at the entrance of Dengshi Street, there was a crowd of people surrounding them. There are three floors inside and three floors outside, which are watertight.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the Yamen is handling the case!" Yan Xiaoliu shouted.
Hearing his shout, the people got out of the way.
Xiang Nan took a closer look and saw a beautiful and fair-skinned young woman with a straw stick in her head and a wooden board in her hand with four big words written on it: "Sell into slavery".
When Xiang Nan saw her appearance, he immediately recognized her as the female snitch Liu Xingyu.
Looking at her harmless look, I felt pity for her. Who would have thought that she could be a thief?
"Why is this girl so obsessed with selling herself into slavery?" Xiang Nan asked.
"We, Capt. Li, are asking you a question." Yan Xiaoliu helped from the side.
"Lord Qi, there was a drought in my hometown and there was no harvest. My parents and I fled the famine and came here to join my relatives. I didn't want my parents to fall ill and die on the road, leaving me alone. When I came here, I found that my relatives had also moved away.
The little girl had no choice but to sell herself into slavery. I sincerely ask the kindhearted gentlemen everywhere to kindly take this little girl in. The little girl must act like a cow or a horse, and wear a grass ring in her mouth to repay the great kindness. "As she said this, she began to sob.
"Oh, how pitiful~"
"Yeah, it's so miserable~"
"It's better to buy her."
"If I had money, I would have bought it long ago."
"Such a beautiful girl, and she is also literate. Not to mention buying her back as a slave, even marrying her back as a wife is worth living."
"It's a pity that the price she charges is too high. I heard it costs one hundred taels of silver. The girls from the dental shop are only as good as twenty or thirty taels."
Everyone was talking about it.
…
Just as he was talking, Xiang Nan took out a hundred taels of silver notes from his pocket and handed it to the girl, "Okay, don't cry, take this money and go home. After you go back, find a good family to marry, don't Sell yourself into slavery again.”
"Sir..." Liu Xingyu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw this.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan gave her so much money but didn't take her home as a slave.
"Captain Li is so generous."
"Good guy, one hundred taels of silver, that's really rich."
"It's no wonder. They have a big business, an inn, and a silk and satin shop. How can they not make a fortune?"
"Captain Li is such a good man. He shows kindness without seeking repayment. No wonder his reputation is spread far and wide~"
When the people saw it, they started talking again.
When Liu Xingyu heard what they said, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he looked at Xiang Nan and said, "Sir, thank you for your kindness. But my parents taught me that I must be grateful as a human being.
returning a Favour many times more. Just let me be a slave in your house. I will work like a cow and a horse, working hard without complaining. "
"No need, it's not a gentleman's behavior to take advantage of others' danger." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, then turned and left.
"Oh, what a gentleman."
"Captain Li deserves to be Capt. Li~"
“Our Seven Heroes Town has Capt. Li, it’s really an honor for the town~”
When the people saw this, they gave thumbs up one after another.
When Liu Xingyu saw this, he bit his lip.
…
"Brother Li, you have already spent money, why don't you take her back? Wouldn't the money be wasted?" Yan Xiaoliu asked doubtfully.
I spent a hundred taels of silver, but I didn't want anyone. He really couldn't understand Xiang Nan's operation.
Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Everyone is in trouble, so help if you can."
In fact, he wanted to make up for the regrets of Li Dazui and Liu Xingyu and successfully bring the couple together.
But as a female thief, Liu Xingyu is actually as sinister and cunning as a snake, and is wary of everyone.
In the play, the reason why Li Dazui moved her. First, Li Dazui ignored her, who was young and beautiful and wanted to marry him, and waited wholeheartedly for Yang Huilan to come back and let her know that there was such an infatuated man in the world;
Second, after Da Zui agreed to marry her, he was 100% kind to her. Peel the apple, eat the peel yourself, and let her eat the pulp. He was very busy in the kitchen, but he didn't even want to let her carry the plate.
Such kindness and righteousness purified her dusty heart, and she was finally willing to give up "stealing the holy treasure".
But that’s about it.
Although Liu Xingyu was very touched, she didn't like being loudmouthed. In the end, he gave it to Big Mouth Moon without giving himself away. The intention was already obvious.
But you can't blame her.
After all, Li Dazui was incompetent in writing and martial arts, and he had no money, no house, and no ability. Even the chef at his job did a careless job. Moreover, they are stingy, cowardly, stubborn, and stupid, and almost no one takes action.
It's not surprising that Liu Xingyu doesn't love him.
Therefore, Xiang Nan prepared to bait Liu Xingyu.
He directly gave her one hundred taels of silver to let her know that she was rich. And he doesn't accept her as a slave, which is a pure gentleman's behavior.
Try to make a great first impression.
As a snitch, Liu Xingyu knew that he had money, so he would definitely not be satisfied with this one hundred taels of silver. When the time comes, they will definitely work hard to get into Li's house to work and wait for opportunities to steal.
And in this period of hard work, that is when I show my charm.
Of course, Liu Xingyu might not take the bait and walk away with the one hundred taels of silver.
It is acceptable to forget each other in the world like this.
…
After Xiang Nan returned home, he began to practice Vajra Zen.
He has read the original work of "The Swordsman". In Jin Yong's narration, this internal skill is defined as "The Supreme Internal Skill of the Shaolin School".
The definition of the Chinese "Yi Jin Jing" is just "the foundation of advanced martial arts", which is even worse than Vajra Zen.
It can be seen from this that this internal skill is really no small matter.
Now that Xiang Nan was practicing, he was really good, because he didn't understand it.
Xiang Nan has practiced many internal skills, such as Toad Kung Fu, Rama Magic Kung Fu, Xiao Wu Xiang Kung Fu, Zixia Magic Kung Fu, Crane Jiu Xiao Magic Kung Fu, Yi Qi Su Ni Sheng and so on.
He even learned the Tian Can Kung Fu, which went against common sense.
But he couldn't even get started in the inner skill of Vajra Zen.
Because there is nothing written in the book about how to transport the inner breath and cultivate the true energy. On the contrary, the above records are all Buddhist Zen sayings, which are suitable for cultivating the mind. It is impossible to talk about practicing Qi.
"What's going on? Is this mental method fake?" Xiang Nan couldn't help but think, but then he gave up the idea.
Because when he returned the "Vajra Zen Lion's Roar" secret book to Zhi Kong, the surprise in his eyes could not be disguised at all. If this secret book is fake, he doesn't have to be so happy at all.
"Is it possible that there is a threshold for practicing martial arts? You have to put aside your obsessions, identify yourself and others, and have no desire to practice martial arts in order to succeed?" Xiang Nan thought.
