The blind old man has a very good skill in opening his mouth and can talk endlessly.
From those knights and knights, to today's world martial arts evaluation list.
Dayu, Dayin, and Dayin dynasties coexisted, and the martial arts review was divided into these three dynasties.
The list is divided into nine categories.
The best quality.
In the eyes of ordinary people, all masters who have reached the highest level are regarded as immortals.
The old man's voice was ups and downs, and the stories that were half fabricated and half true were particularly exciting.
Especially when it comes to how those masters turned over rivers and seas, gratified and grudged each other, or used swords to fight and kill demons and barbarians.
He immediately won applause from the whole house.
Nowadays, demons and barbarians are causing trouble, and the war at the border has been going on for many years.
The people were frightened and uneasy, so they loved to hear these happy stories.
Listening to the diners' reactions, the old man knew that the heat was about the same, so he touched his granddaughter's head.
The little girl immediately went to the table with a cloth bag to ask for a reward.
Some people put steamed buns and noodles in, and some threw a copper coin as a reward.
No matter what was given, the girl thanked her sweetly.
Wait until you arrive at Chu Qiu’s table.
Chu Qiu folded up a piece of flour cake, put a small piece of broken silver inside, stuffed it into a cloth bag, and praised with a smile: "Your grandpa's speech is very wonderful."
The girl didn't notice Chu Qiu's movements, but she secretly glanced at him.
She had only seen such a good-looking person in paintings before, but she didn't dare to take a second look. She quickly lowered her gaze and said sweetly, "Thank you, uncle, for the meal."
Then she went back to find her grandfather.
At the end of the story-telling, after asking for a reward, the blind old man cupped his fists and cupped his hands, thanking him again and again.
According to the rules, if they earned a living in the inn, they had to split the bill with the shopkeeper.
The lame shopkeeper limped and led the grandfather and grandson to the side to discuss how to divide the money.
Chu Qiu looked at it and didn't do anything extra.
A chance meeting can only help so much.
After eating and drinking enough, Chu Qiu picked up his baggage and long sword, ready to inspect the customs and customs of Taiping Town.
If it's suitable, buy a small courtyard here and settle down, and wait until ten or eight years to develop your skills.
Old Taoist Xuanjing was hard-spoken and soft-hearted, so he packed a handful of copper coins and a lot of broken silver in his baggage.
In total, there is about ten taels.
This money will be enough for Chu Qiu to eat and drink for a period of time.
If I go back and find another way to make a living, at least my life will be more secure.
Turning around and going to the stable, Chu Qiu untied the second donkey, who was already impatient. Chu Qiu smoothed the white hair on its head and said, "Don't be impatient. Maybe we brothers will settle down here in the future."
As he spoke, he stuffed a wild fruit into the mouth of the second donkey, comforted it, and then led it outside.
Before he could go far, he suddenly heard a shout from in front of the inn door.
"Old blind man, do you really think that this man is made of clay!?"
There was a loud bang!
I saw that the old storyteller just now had been thrown onto the shelf drying wild vegetables on the street, and his whole body was in a mess.
Several gangsters with open arms blocked the grandfather and grandson with extremely unkind expressions.
The leader, a muscular man with a round waist, strode forward, lifted the old man up with one hand, as easily as lifting a chicken, and said coldly: "You say Mr. Zhou is robbing you of your money? Do you know what a fee is? Mr. Zhou tells you! In You can earn a living on the street and pay according to the rules, this is the fee!"
Hiss!
The blind old man's old robe had several holes torn in it.
"Master, don't fight, don't fight... I really don't make much money, please spare me..."
The old man kept rubbing his hands and said soft words to beg for mercy.
The man had a fierce look in his eyes, raised his hand and slapped her across the face, yelling: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will make your granddaughter blind too. You go begging on the street to earn this money for me!"
The trembling little girl immediately knelt down, kowtowed, and cried: "Don't hit my grandpa! We were wrong! We were wrong!"
The blind old man's mouth was full of blood. He also rubbed his hands and begged for mercy: "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to pay the fee... We walk around the streets and only earn a living every day. You want fifteen coppers." I really can’t take it out, little old man!”
Seeing the commotion here, Heyao quickly gathered some onlookers.
Some people couldn't bear it and seemed to want to say something.
But he was forced to retreat by the looks of the gangsters. He shrank his neck in fear and did not dare to say a word.
Even though the kind-hearted people are like this, the rest of the people have long been accustomed to it and just watch the excitement. No one wants to meddle in other people's business.
Just because this group of people are famous local gangsters.
The leader had some martial arts training and was ruthless. Being arrested in the county government office was as good as going home. Even the police officers on patrol could not do anything to him.
"Can't you take it out?" The man laughed ferociously and winked.
Immediately, someone reached out and snatched the cloth bag from the little girl's waist.
With a rough movement, several copper coins were caught in the palm of his hand.
Then he took out pancakes and steamed buns.
Snap.
The ruffian scratched the cake and felt a little clumsy, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
He opened his palm and found that it was a small piece of broken silver.
"Didn't you say I couldn't get it out? What is this silver!?"
The ruffian gnashed his teeth and said, "Brother Dao, I think this old immortal is playing tricks on you!"
The little girl looked at the broken silver in his hand, her face pale.
The blind old man was even more at a loss: "What, what money? I really don't know!"
Chu Qiu, who was holding the second donkey, stopped and looked over expressionlessly.
That money was given by me, and now I am giving it to cause trouble?
He frowned silently and prepared to go over and say something.
An old voice sounded from behind: "Little Taoist priest, you've just arrived, so you'd better stay calm. If something happens to a stranger in Taiping Town, no one will stand up and speak for you."
Hearing this, Chu Qiu looked back.
I found out that it was the lame shopkeeper who came out to watch the fun.
The lame shopkeeper held the pipe and took two puffs. He looked over and said calmly: "You can't offend him."
Chu Qiu glanced at the gangster in the crowd: "How can a gangster be considered untouchable?"
"Ruffians also have backers." The old shopkeeper exhaled smoke and said calmly: "The gangster nicknamed San Dao is just a scoundrel, but his backer is Dirty Street. In Taiping Town, the streets have street rules, and the dirty streets have their own rules. It's easier to use your reputation than the county government. These people are very measured in their actions. They will let the blind storyteller off when they vent their anger, and mind their own business to avoid getting into trouble."
Chu Qiu showed a thoughtful expression, touched the white hair on the head of the second donkey, and remained silent.
The old shopkeeper looked at him deeply and stopped talking.
On the other end, Zhou Zhoudao grabbed the blind old man and slapped him several times, then pulled out the short knife from his waist.
He leaned against the old man's belly and said: "You stinky beggar, why don't you follow the rules when you go to Taiping Town to ask for food? Let me tell you, fifteen coppers is a day's fee. You have paid it today. If I come back tomorrow, you You have to bring out fifteen more copper coins! If you can’t get them out, Master Zhou will stab you in the belly and make two holes to give you a long memory!"
"Sir, have mercy, sir, have mercy! I'm leaving today, please spare us two..."
The blind old man's knees felt weak, and he quickly begged San Dao to let his grandfather and grandson go.
He is a blind man and has no other skills except storytelling.
At the best time, you can just make money by chewing money.
Don't say that you can't raise enough money, so what if you can?
Give it today, give it tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow they, the grandfather and the grandson, will have no choice but to die.
But his words made Zhou Zhou's eyes gleam coldly.
"Still want to leave?" He looked around and suddenly pointed at the little girl kneeling on the ground: "Catch this girl!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a rogue immediately reached out to grab the little girl.
This girl looks decent enough, so she can be used as a conservatory maid for someone, and she can earn at least a few taels of silver.
The little girl was frightened, crawled back desperately, and tried her best to get into the crowd.
"Step aside!"
The ruffian pointed at the onlookers, his eyes widened: "They are all locals with children. Before you stand up for others, think about the consequences. Do you want to hang out in Taiping Town in the future?"
When the local residents heard this, although they couldn't bear it, they hurriedly got out of the way.
In this world, it is not even a big deal to catch a foreigner who is doing business in the world. How can he live in Taiping Town if he offends the gangsters in the dirty streets?
As soon as the crowd dispersed, the little girl suddenly had nowhere to hide.
"Let me run away again!"
The naughty man had a sinister smile on his face, and he reached out to grab her clothes, trying to lift them up.
Before he could turn around, a black shadow suddenly flew in front of him.
The rogue reacted a moment slowly, but all he could see in front of him was the sole of a shoe getting closer and closer.
The next second, he was kicked so hard that he flipped over and fell to the ground, his mouth was bleeding, and even his front teeth were kicked out!
"Is there really anyone who is not afraid of death?" Zhou Dao's eyes widened: "Who dares to meddle in Dirty Street's business!?"
"your dad!"
Chu Qiu stood a few steps away and finished speaking expressionlessly.
Then he raised his foot and kicked Zhou Dao in the chest!
