Yuan is the currency unit commonly used in the world of cultivation; in the ordinary world, it is still gold, silver and copper.
One yuan is roughly equivalent to one thousand penny or one tael of silver, so the amount of money Xin Buqi wants to borrow is probably three yuan...
Lin Tuo was slightly sweaty. He was used to being a rich man, and he really had no idea about the consumption of ordinary people.
He took out a piece of silver from his interdimensional bag and crushed it into soybean-sized pieces with his fingers. He murmured in his mind: This is something heroes often do in martial arts books.
However, in the world of martial arts, heroes have been able to conquer the world. In this cheating world, you are still a gangster at the bottom. There is a long road ahead, and you have to keep working hard!
After weighing the silver beans, he actually measured it with the bronze precious eye. The net weight was four taels and seven cents. He also took out dozens of ten green cents and handed them to Xin Buqi.
Xin Buqi took the money without saying anything, turned around and ran back: "Brother Long, wait here, I'll be right back!"
Lin Tuo was curious. Xin Buqi was running ahead, so he hid in the grass by the river and followed him quietly. He watched Xin Buqi run along the dirt road and quickly reached the dilapidated small town not far from the river. Village.
Then, he went door to door and gradually distributed the money he had just received. In his bronze eyes, he heard him say: "Uncle, aunt, uncle, aunt... Thank you for taking care of you these three months. I told you that I Not a beggar, this is money to buy your stuff!”
Each household gave different amounts of money, some had none, and some had a lot. Xin Buqi seemed to remember it clearly, but he finished distributing it within a quarter of an hour, took the remaining money, and returned to the river.
Lin Tuo sneaked back into the grass, waited for Xin Buqi to come over, took the remaining silver and copper coins, and counted them briefly. Sure enough, he had lost three taels of silver, 190 Wen, and the account was not satisfactory at all.
Lin Tuo was secretly surprised and couldn't help but ask Xin Buqi what he did with the money. Xin Buqi looked shy for a long time: "Brother Long, you lent me the money and I told you this, but don't tell anyone else." Ah, when I return to the village and pay you the money, I will pay you back."
Lin Tuo promised with all his heart, and Xin Buqi finally said it.
It turned out that three months ago, he had come here to lurk on the orders of the village master to meet Brother Yi who might be in trouble. He had received the package at the time, but he was not careful on the road and the package was stolen or lost. So, I came here empty-handed. In order to ensure that I could respond at any time, but also had no time to work to make money, I could only survive by begging in the nearest small village...hence the previous words.
It’s so particular!
For an irregular mission, I had to live by begging every day. I didn’t know how to be humiliated and ridiculed by others. I didn’t know where I was going to rest day and night. I didn’t know where to rest and sleep in the open. Stay for three months...
If it were Lin Tuo, Lin Tuo knew that he would never have that much patience, nor that strong perseverance.
He is already like this at a young age. When he grows up, he will definitely be Brother Yi again!
Suddenly, Lin Tuo became very interested in Danfeng Village...
According to what Er Ge Yi and his brothers said inadvertently, their Danfeng Village did not have an official background or cultivation backer like Qianshan Village. It was purely a bandit den and a target for annihilation by the state army.
But look at Brother Yi, look at Xin Buqi, Qianshan Village is more like a bandit's nest, while Danfeng Village is more like an army that obeys orders and prohibits them, and never commits any crime.
"Okay, Brother Long, the things here are over, let's set off!" From a hidden cave under the bridge tunnel, Xin Buqi took out a baggage. Inside the baggage, there were weird leather jackets, vests, waistcoats... and... There are a few green scales.
He asked Lin Tuo to change into clothes that were obviously several sizes too big, and carefully glued a few sticky green scales to the outer edge of Lin Tuo's jaw, making it look like he had two beards.
Xin Buqi took two steps back to take a closer look, nodded and said, "Yao Luhai has been under a lot of pressure recently, and the investigation is very strict. We still have to take the mountain road to avoid questioning at the checkpoint."
Lin Tuo touched his "beard" and suddenly felt confused: "I'm wearing makeup, what should you do?"
Xin Buqi smiled and lifted his collar: "I don't need to put on makeup."
There is a solitary diamond-like scale at the Adam's apple, which reflects seven colors of light in the sun: "I have demon blood. Otherwise, it would not be my turn to do this job."
So that's it. Take a closer look. Not only are there scales on his neck, but Xin Buqi's skin has a faint gem color and shines brightly. It is indeed not an ordinary mortal's blood. Lin Tuo nodded and stopped Xin Buqi, who was very intent on leaving: "However, when I leave here, I don't want to go back to Danfeng Village, but I have other important matters."
What's up? Of course I was treating Sister Yue!
Sister Yue's condition is getting worse and worse. This is Yao Luhai, which is 500 miles away from Suo Mo Ridge, and it has to cross the Liangjie Mountain, or Yao Luhai and the Ganzhou front line. Even if she has no worries, It may not be possible to go on the road, let alone the emergency situation now? You can only find someone nearby to treat you.
After hearing Lin Tuo's explanation of the situation, Xin Buqi was slightly startled, but he was not very surprised. He nodded: "There are not many good doctors in this small place. There are hundreds of miles nearby, and there is only Nanlu Port where the army is stationed. I should be able to find some, but... I think... It is also the most difficult to sneak into Nanlu Port."
Lin Tuo had heard of the name Nanlu Port. It was basically the Suo Mo Ridge in the direction of Yao Luhai. There were many garrisons and many cultivators. He nodded: "Then let's go to Nanlu Port!"
For the sake of sister Yue's life, I have to fight even if it means going through mountains of swords and seas of fire!
They had just decided on where to go, but before they had time to put it into action, a few half-grown men suddenly ran out from a small village not far away, heading straight for the bridge opening in a hurry.
"Someone is coming." Bronze Bao saw it clearly in his eyes, and Lin Tuo was about to leave with Xin Buqi in hand.
Looking at the way he came, Xin Buqi shook his head: "It's okay, he's my friend." He took the initiative to greet him, "Gouzi, Er Zhuang, and Dan Niu, why are you here?"
"Brother Xin, leave quickly, leave quickly! I heard that the Gou family sent people to Zhenshan to find the security chief, saying they would report you..." the young men said anxiously.
"Report on me? Report on me for what?" Xin Buqi was confused.
"I'm reporting you for unknown reasons, and you just... gave away money to the village, but not to his family!"
"Despicable villains, they are just jealous. Seeing Brother Xin that you gave double money to other people, they are jealous! I don't want to think about the fact that other families had entertained Brother Xin before, but his family was the richest and he didn't get a dime!"
"However, the Gou family has a backer in the town. Brother Xin, you'd better leave quickly and go somewhere else to avoid the limelight!"
A few half-year-olds talked all over the place and quickly talked about everything.
Xin Buqi nodded when he heard the words: "It doesn't matter, I was about to leave, and I was just looking for a chance to say goodbye to you... Your family is kind-hearted, so I will repay you double. As for the Gou family... are you willing to entertain? We can’t blame him for his family’s affairs, and we can’t make mistakes by reporting them to the town... Don’t worry, the people in the town will definitely not find us!”
