Lu Jing stepped out of the window and punched Li Bufan, then flew onto the roof of the restaurant.
Then without stopping, he stepped on the tiles and jumped into the alley behind the restaurant.
Because the turbulent waves were too noisy, Lu Jing did not use Qing Kung Fu, but simply channeled his internal energy to his legs.
But in this way, it would be difficult to outrun the man behind him.
Lu Jing had already guessed the identity of the other party - Li Bufan, the leader of the Changle Gang.
This person has outstanding martial arts skills and has already reached the top level sixteen years ago. Now he has practiced the Jiuding Changchun Kung Fu, the secret technique of the Changle Gang, to the eighth level. He is among the top masters in the world.
Therefore, he would definitely not be able to escape just by pouring his internal strength into his legs. Fortunately, Lu Jing also had foreign aid.
He had asked Amu and Black Cat to wait for him outside the pastry shop nearby.
However, the black cat probably slipped over because he was attracted by Jiang Yuanmao's luck, while Amu should still be staying there obediently.
Lu Jing planned to use the lightness skills of the small wooden dummy to see if he could get rid of Li Bufan.
However, after running for two steps in the alley, he did not see Li Bufan's shadow, nor did he hear the footsteps behind him.
Well, you didn’t catch up?
Lu Jing was a little surprised. He knew that Li Bufan was the master invited by Qi Ganban of the Imperial City Division to assist him. In addition, Jiang Yuanmao also had a good relationship with the Changle Gang. He helped the Changle Gang manage a lot of properties, and every year The turnover of more than 100,000 taels of silver was recorded in the account.
Seeing that he was put to death like this, it makes sense that Li Bufan's gang mainly wanted to help him stand out.
But now it seems that Li Bufan is not very interested in avenging Jiang Yuanmao.
After one punch failed to achieve any success, he actually just gave up the burden.
As a result, Lu Jing's pace also slowed down, but out of caution, he walked around again to make sure there was no suspicious person waiting behind him, and then returned to the pastry shop.
I found a small wooden man squatting there in a deserted alley next to me.
It was completely dark at this time, but most of the shops on the street were still open, with lanterns hung outside the doors for lighting.
In order to attract customers, some stores have made many ingenious paper light boxes, with oil lamps inside to illuminate the calligraphy and paintings on the light boxes. They look a bit like neon lights and billboards.
In addition, the night market by the river has also opened.
The pergola was bustling with people, selling everything from calligraphy and paintings to candy figures. It seemed more lively than during the day, especially the freshly cooked sheep's head tripe and lungs, wild duck meat, fried tongs, plated rabbit meat... What's more, Lu Jing's stomach couldn't help but growl.
Only then did he remember that he hadn't had dinner yet.
Although he had just visited Jiang Yuanmao's birthday banquet, the banquet had not started yet and only a few cold dishes were served. And he was busy being his Batman, so in the end he only drank a few sips of tea. , and ran out with an empty stomach again.
But it doesn't matter. He actually ate a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas in his previous life, so it's not that unusual. But now, it's the fresh snacks from roadside stalls that appeal to him more.
Lu Jing ordered a portion of roasted pork rind, a portion of tripe eel, a bowl of sugared mung bean and licorice ice cream and a portion of lychee cake. The total cost was less than fifty cents.
Then he found a stone bench and sat on it while eating and looking at the people coming and going in front of him.
The location he chose is located in the night market with the largest flow of people. There is a stone bridge on the right hand side. There are many pedestrians on the bridge, shoulder to shoulder.
There was naturally a reason why Lu Jing chose to eat here. He sneaked into Jiang Yuanmao's birthday banquet to help Gu Caiwei solve the problem, but he unexpectedly discovered a new ability of the black cat.
And this became his biggest gain tonight.
When Ye Gongmei taught him the art of controlling animals, he left him a homework assignment, asking him to think carefully about how to make good use of the black cat around him.
However, Lu Jing thought about it for a while, but his thoughts basically stayed on transshipment and disaster relief.
But this is a bit incompatible with the business of Taoist monks, and it does not help Lu Jing himself. At most, he will charge a service fee afterwards, and people may not believe it.
But tonight, Lu Jing finally saw another solution to this problem.
——Exchange lives.
It's not like Lu Jing has never thought about this kind of thing before. After all, this black cat can spit out the life it swallowed in its stomach, but it has no control over what kind of life it will spit out, and when it will spit out. It doesn't seem to be able to decide on its own.
This made Lu Jing a little troubled.
Because he doesn’t want to play Russian Roulette every time he changes his life. He doesn’t know what life he will get. In addition, not being able to determine the time is also a big problem. Just in case he is in urgent need of luck, the black cat will There is nothing to vomit, which is naturally very inconvenient.
But everything is different now.
Lu Jing found that the black cat seemed to be able to catch the fortune and not swallow it directly, but turned around and vomited it to another person.
In this way, the luck and object of life exchange are no longer random, but can be chosen independently.
It feels...a bit powerful.
Lu Jing thought that if he could have the miraculous fate of winning every gamble he had in his previous dream, and then go to the gambling house and kill everyone, wouldn't it mean that in a few months, he would be as rich as the enemy?
Once this thought arises, it can no longer be contained.
There is no way, but in that dynasty, money looked very cute.
So Lu Jing turned to the black cat while biting the pork skin, "Have you found the target?"
The black cat did not answer immediately, but kept looking at the crowd with its seemingly blind eye. Lu Jing also appeared to be very patient and did not rush any more.
He waited for two sticks of incense, and the black cat's nose twitched, and then jumped off the stone bench without hesitation. Lu Jing put the unfinished lychee cake into his arms, He also took Amu after him.
I saw the black cat flexibly jumping between thighs, first ran about three feet away, and then kicked off its legs and ran up the stone bridge next to it.
Standing on the handrail of the stone carving, he looked around again, and then ran to somewhere.
And Lu Jing also looked in the direction it was going.
At a glance, he saw a fair-faced and beardless scholar, tall and quite handsome, looking around on the bridge with a purse in his hand that didn't look like his own.
Lu Jing couldn't help but be shocked. Is this what he was thinking about?
He was just thinking about how to make money, when he came face to face with his fortune. He could still pick up a purse in such a crowded place, and the purse looked bulging, which showed that this scholar's fortune was definitely not simple.
