At midnight, the night is as cool as water. 56 Library's new website:

A little moonlight spilled down through the cracks in the roof, forming mottled patches like frost everywhere.

The temple has been abandoned for a long time and is unusually dilapidated.

The main hall is dedicated to an unknown mountain god, three-legged and six-armed, blue-faced fangs, and a fierce and gloomy look, but at this time, the clay statue has cracked, the face is less than half, and the paint on the body is also more falling off and broken, and the mud tire is exposed, which looks a little funny.

Under the statue of the mountain god, the original offering was missing a leg, which appeared crooked, and there were still three or two broken corners and broken thick bowls and plates left, and there were some black mold inside, which should be the remaining sacrifices from before.

As for the incense burner, candlestick, curtains and other items of little value, they were taken away by the nearby money-hungry mountain people when the temple was lost and began to be abandoned, and now this empty hall is left.

It's just that this abandoned temple has recently become a little more popular, but this time it is not the believers who have made incense in the past.

……

In the corner of the main hall away from the window door, Li Mingyu moved the arms and thighs that were pressed on his body one by one, and reluctantly sat up from the crowd, but in the space of more than ten square meters, it was crowded with more than 20 people, including old and young, men and women, but at this time they all had an identity, all of them were refugees who fled here because of the flood.

A gust of cold wind blew in from outside the door, Li Mingyu couldn't help but shiver, it was already late autumn at this time, and the autumn wind was blowing in the middle of the night, and he was still wearing a thin summer coat at this time, how not to be cold.

Came to the bonfire that was about to be extinguished, took some straw to rekindle the spark, added some dry firewood, and watched the fire gradually rise, Li Mingyu's little face was depressed, although there was a little more warmth on his body, but his heart was full of confusion.

In his memory, his name is Li Xiaoliu, and he is a native of Lijiawa Village, Jishui County, Minnan Province, under the rule of Qi State, because he is the sixth oldest in the clan, so everyone calls him Li Xiaoliu.

In the summer of today, the heavy rain in Qi country continued, the Minjiang River flooded, and the entire Minnan Province became an ocean, and Jishui is one of the three major tributaries of the Minjiang River, so Jishui County is also one of the most severely affected areas.

The flood inundated Li's family, and 12-year-old Li Xiaoliu's parents and sister were swept away by the flood, leaving him and a dozen of his clan survivors to flee north with the affected refugees.

After a few months, I barely survived by handing out wild vegetables, bark and wild fruits, and finally walked out of the two roads of southern Fujian and northern Fujian, which were the most severely affected by the floods, and came to Qishan Road, which was relatively rich and relatively affected by the floods.

However, another clearer memory told him that he was not Li Xiaoliu who fled, but Li Mingyu, the crown prince of the Tang Empire in another world, but he didn't know why he became Li Xiaoliu when he woke up, and this world is not the Tang Dynasty, but a completely strange world.

"I should have crossed over, and I was still soul piercing. When I was a child, my mother once told me that she had traveled from modern times to Datang, and she also told me a lot about the experience of the other world, the modern earth, and at that time I only thought it was a story, but I didn't expect it to be true!" Li Mingyu sighed in his heart.

After a few days, he was shocked, puzzled, confused and confused about the fact that he had crossed over, and he had begun to slowly calm down and calmly analyze his current situation.

In Li Mingyu's opinion, he has already penetrated into this other world, and he can't find a way to return to the Tang Dynasty in a short time, the only thing he can do at present is to live well in this other world, at least he can't beg for a living like now, and the former Prince Huanghuang of the Tang Empire can't collapse and become a beggar because he crossed into the other world.

……

In the morning, the red sun rises.

The warm sunlight shone into the house through the doors and windows, and the refugees slowly began to get up and move, and began to run for a new day.

After a while, the refugees in the ruined temple left in groups of threes and twos, leaving only Li Mingyu and a thin black boy about the same age as him.

The black and thin young man is called Li Jing, the fourth oldest in the clan, Li Mingyu calls him four, and now there are more than a dozen people in Lijiawa Village who fled with Li Mingyu in the past few months, and only the two brothers remain.

After cautiously looking around, and finding that there was indeed no one else, Li Jing used a branch to open the fire, and then carefully dug up the ground with a wooden stick, and after a while, two black balls were dug out of it.

"Let's eat!" Li Jing hesitated, but still threw one to Li Mingyu, and the other rubbed on his body, and he couldn't wait to eat it.

Li Mingyu took it and looked at it carefully, only to recognize that it was a yam.

"Where did it come from?"

"I dug it in the back mountain when I was collecting firewood last night, but fortunately, I was smart enough to hide under the bonfire when I lit the fire, so I escaped Shi Yiba and a few of them!" he said with some smugness.

Shi Yiba is the head of the refugees, relying on his strong body, his style is very arrogant and domineering, whoever has anything delicious among the refugees, as long as he sees it, he will definitely grab it.

After eating the yam, Li Mingyu and the others found themselves even hungrier, as the so-called half-grown child eats the poor old man, at their age, it is the time to grow their bodies, a piece of yam in their stomachs, just makes the stomach acid secretion more, so they feel more hungry.

The two of them had to go to the stream at the foot of the mountain, and poured half of their stomachs with cold water, barely mixed with water, and their stomachs were finally not so hungry.

For the next plan, the two discussed it and decided to go to the nearby Qingshan Town to see if they could find something to eat, and it was best to find a place to work. After escaping the disaster for several months, they finally left the disaster area, and the two of them were almost hungry and tired to the extreme, and they really did not want to go further north.

However, due to the poor physique, the two walked and rested, but three or two miles of mountain roads, Li Mingyu and the two took nearly half an hour to finish, and when they came to the town gate, it was almost noon, and seventy or eighty people had gathered at the town gate, and they were lining up to enter the town, and two soldiers with spears were lazily maintaining order.

Seeing such a scene, Li Mingyu's faces suddenly became ugly.

Most of these people were ragged, tattered, unkempt, covered in mud and dirt, tired, numb and lifeless in their eyes, and they were obviously refugees who had fled here like Li Mingyu and the others, and they were all extremely poor, and they all went to the town to find food and work with the same goals as the two of them.

However, Qingshan Town is just an ordinary mountain town under Fuyang County, and it is said that the population is only more than 1,000, so how many places can it provide for part-time work?

The current situation is obviously that there are more people and less meat, and the competition is fierce!

……

"Go, you little beggar, don't get in the way of our business."

"Hei Yo! you want to come to work even if you ask for food, hurry up, hurry up."

"Oops, I said who asked you to put Hanako in, it's disgusting, that customer still dares to come in to eat, hurry up and beat this stinky one out for me."

"Phew", spat out the blood from the corner of his mouth, and sat down under a wall on the corner of the street. Smelling the fragrance from the steamed bun shop not far away, Li Mingyu's stomach gurgled even louder.

As he imagined, as soon as he entered Deqingshan Town, he found that there were refugees looking for jobs everywhere. Every shop owner who wants to recruit workers is happy.

Not only did the monthly salary drop from 3 taels and 2 yuan to 1 tael and 3 yuan, but also picked the fat and thin, don't be strong, don't be honest........ ,, where would a thin teenager like Li Mingyu be recruited.

After separating from Li Jing, Li Mingyu asked about the store more than a dozen times, politely refused directly, and blasted him out directly, and the most hateful thing was the fat pig shopkeeper in Sihai Restaurant, who directly beat Li Mingyu out.

Now thinking of the slap on his face, Li Mingyu hates it so much that the root of his teeth itches, he was the prince in the Tang Dynasty, under one person, above ten thousand people, everyone flattered him, how could he have suffered this kind of anger, and now he is bullied by a lowly businessman like an ant.

If it weren't for the fact that this body was too weak to resist, Li Mingyu would definitely beat the fat pig shopkeeper into a pig's head, but he hated it in his heart, and he would definitely get the field back when he had the strength in the future.

"Gollum......" Li Mingyu touched his stomach, his eyes were a little blue with hunger.

"It seems that there is no hope of finding a job, is it true that he is a prince of the Tang Dynasty who wants to beg!" Li Mingyu really couldn't pull off that face.

"Little Liu, look at your hunger!" At this time, Li Jing came over with a smile and sat down beside Li Mingyu. What made Li Mingyu pay more attention was that he was holding two white steamed buns wrapped in yellow paper in his hands.

"What, you're going to divide one of me!" Li Mingyu said angrily, although the two were brothers of the same clan, he knew that this Li Jing was very stingy, and the yam in the morning was already a rare time for the other party.

"Steamed buns can't be divided between you, but I know where there are steamed buns" Li Jing shook his head and said with a smile.

"How can there be steamed buns?" saw Li Jing selling Guanzi, so he cooperated with him.

"Hehe, Simon, Zhang Juren's daughter, Miss Zhang is limited to two per person in Shi Mantou, and no more than one is allowed, and I got it from there. Hurry up and get it, or you'll be snatched up in a while!"

After chatting with Li Jing for a while, he learned from him that the medical hall in the town was buying all kinds of medicinal materials at a high price, and he planned to go to the mountains in the afternoon to see if he could collect medicinal materials and sell them to the medical hall for money, and invited Li Mingyu to go with him.

Li Mingyu thought about it, but still refused, so Li Jing had to leave with some regrets

Li Mingyu went to the place where Ximen Shi steamed buns and received two steamed buns, ate them in three or two bites, barely filled his stomach, and then he found a remote place at the base of the wall, lay down, squinted his eyes, and began to recuperate.

Although he couldn't find a job to do, he didn't plan to go up to the mountains to collect medicine or chop firewood like Li Jing and other refugees.

Don't say that his weak body can't do physical work, even if he can do it, Li Mingyu won't go. He grew up in the palace since he was a child, and there are people to serve him for everything, and where can he collect medicine and chop wood!

If you encounter wolves, tigers and other wild beasts in the mountains, your life will be lost.

Li Mingyu thought of a person who was not tired, and he was happy to live with money, but he needed to take some risks. All he needs to do now is to gather his stamina and wait until it gets dark before he has the strength to work.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Li Mingyu estimated that most people should go to bed (ancient people rarely had any entertainment at night, and generally went to bed early). Only then did he get up from the ground and walk towards Qingshan Street, the most prosperous street in Qingshan Town.

Although Li Mingyu is said to be a prince and has received a royal elite education, he is not a business genius, he does not have so many ideas to make money, and he only thinks of two ideas when he is not tired and comes to make money quickly. One is to rob, the other is to steal.

His body is so weak that he can't rob it, so he can only steal it, as long as he is careful not to be caught when stealing, anyway, he is a homeless person, as long as he leaves Qingshan Town, even if he has an incident, where will the government go to find him!

And Li Mingyu knows very well that there are definitely many homeless people who have the same idea as him. And the target he chose was the Four Seas Restaurant, which happened to beat him up with the fat pig shopkeeper, and first recovered some interest.

Sihai Restaurant is located in the most conspicuous and prosperous middle section of Qinglong Street, with two floors and more luxurious decoration, and is definitely one of the highest-income shops in Qinglong Town.

Seeing the closed door of the Four Seas Restaurant, Li Mingyu took out a broken sickle blade from his arms. It took him more than an hour to dig through the garbage heap in the afternoon.

Li Mingyu gently sent the sickle blade and inserted it through the crack in the door, and then slowly inserted the door into the strand one by one, slowly separating it. Then with a slight push of the "button", the door was pushed open a small crack, and then Li Mingyu let out a long breath.

Fortunately, the door was not blocked, otherwise it would be impossible to sneak in without alerting the vigil guys, and he Li Mingyu now has no ability to rob him.

Li Mingyu walked in lightly and rummaged through the counter. There is not much money in the counter, only 5 taels of loose silver and a lot of copper plates, and most of the day's operating income should be called the fat pig shopkeeper to put it away, these should be changed tomorrow, so it is not locked.

Li Mingyu first put all the loose silver into the pocket of his pants, then thought for a while, took off his dirty shirt, and spread it on the ground. Then he took the copper plate out of the counter and put it on his shirt, until there was not a single copper plate left, and he stopped and wrapped the copper plate.

After pondering for a while, Li Mingyu felt that these were not enough, and then lightly touched the kitchen, found a roast chicken, two sweet and sour elbows, and two sets of coarse cloth clothes in the utility house, until he couldn't take them in his hands, and then secretly left the Four Seas Restaurant.

After leaving the Four Seas Restaurant, Qin Jin walked briskly towards the middle of the town, where there was a deep well, which was where the townspeople usually took water.

Putting the stolen things aside, Li Mingyu shook a large bucket of well water, then took off all the dirty clothes on his body, scooped the well water and took a cold shower happily, and then changed the stolen clean clothes, he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, and finally evacuated a lot of depression during the day.

Make a butt on the edge of the well, eat an elbow, take a bite of roast chicken, and count the copper plates in the package.

A large bag of copper plates looks like a lot, and Li Mingyu counted a total of more than 2,800 yuan, that is, 2 taels and 8 coins of silver. But with the addition of the 5 taels of scattered silver, it is almost 8 taels.

If you are desperate to work for people, I am afraid that you need to work for half a year without eating or drinking to save it, and now you have it in a circle at night, and sure enough, there is still no money to buy and sell!

However, this kind of business is too dangerous to do for a long time, and if you miss it and are caught and twisted to the government, you will have to suffer a lot, not to mention, you may have to eat in prison for the next few years.

After eating and drinking, he knocked on the door of the inn and asked for a single room of the lowest class, 15 copper coins each. Lying on the guest bed, Li Mingyu felt a wave of sleepiness coming, this body was too tired, and immediately fell into a deep sleep.

When Li Mingyuxing woke up, the sun had already set in the west, and he had slept until the afternoon.

I asked the guy for a stack of cooked beef, two steamed buns, and a bowl of vegetable soup, and gobbled it up to fill my stomach, and it only cost a total of 12 copper plates.

In addition, during dinner, Li Mingyu learned from his friends that there were six or seven thefts in the town last night, two of which were caught by the residents on the spot and sent to the government, and four of the burglars had been reported.

Among them is Li Mingyu's master, the pig-headed shopkeeper of Sihai Restaurant.

The occurrence of a number of thefts has alarmed the magistrate of Yangshan County, and the residence has sent Dong Zhutou to bring a team of officials to Qingshan Town to investigate and solve the case, and most of the residents in the town have also stepped up their awareness of preventing thieves.

After hearing the news, Li Mingyu secretly rejoiced in his heart.

Thankfully, it started early. The residents of the town have been peaceful for a long time, and they don't close their doors at night and have no sense of anti-theft, which makes it so easy for him to get it.

Now that the displaced people have been moved around, they have become vigilant, have a sense of anti-thief, and the government has intervened. It seems that in a short period of time, it is no longer possible to rely on this kind of capitalless trading to make money.

The phone would be too small, and the risk would be too great.

Li Mingyu calculated, 7 taels and 8 yuan of silver, saving a little, including meals and accommodation, more than 50 yuan a day, enough for him to use for nearly two months.

For such a long time, it is enough to take care of your body, and even bribe the yamen to get a household registration, and then you will have a black household and a homeless person whose identity is not there, and the way to make money will be much broader, and there will be no need for such sneaky means.

……

A month later

Qishan Road, Shannan County, Pingyang Mansion, Jushimen martial arts field.

A tall, dark-skinned middle-aged man stood under the sun, speaking loudly and viciously.

Under his hands, dozens of teenagers, including Li Mingyu, were neatly arranged in rows, and their eyes did not dare to look directly, and their faces were awe-inspiring.

"This sect has been established for a hundred years, according to the rules of the sect every three years will recruit a group of new disciples to enter, your group of forty-eight people, although my Jushimen is not a famous sect, but in the entire Pingyang Mansion is still quite famous. And you can stand out from the selection of hundreds or thousands of people, most of them are not badly qualified, and your family is also quite powerful and wealthy. ”

The swarthy man's eyes rolled, silently observing the changes in the expressions of the newcomers, and the words changed: "However, don't be too happy, the entry is just a proof that you have the qualifications to practice martial arts, as for how many people can have small achievements in the future? I don't think there will be more than one!"

Seeing that many teenagers were showing resentment, the swarthy man was secretly happy in his heart, but his mouth became more and more derogatory.

"How can someone not be convinced, I have seen a lot of newcomers like you, most of them are full of interest at the beginning of martial arts, but after a few days, they are tired and tired, and they may not even be able to pass the simplest level of body refining, so they give up, maybe the next you are such a garbage and waste material. ”

After a few more words of belittlement, and the strength of the teenagers jumped, the swarthy man changed his words and began to explain.

"Even if many people don't practice martial arts, they also know that martial arts are divided into two parts: innate and acquired, innate for you today, too far away not to mention for the time being, and the acquired is subdivided into two major realms, the power realm and the qi realm, of which the force realm is divided into three small realms: forging the body, working force, and qi and blood...... And these three levels are also known as the three levels of martial arts entry, which are the foundation of the beginning of the martial arts road. ”

Through the explanation of the swarthy man, Li Mingyu gradually had a superficial understanding of the martial arts of this world.

……

Over the past month, as Li Mingyu learned more about the world, the more things surprised and shocked him.

He has seen the masters of martial arts stories who always fly the eaves and walls, and he has also seen the Taoist priests and demons in the stories of wild foxes, obviously this is not an ordinary world similar to the Tang Dynasty, but an extraordinary world with martial arts, internal strength, immortals, and spells.

Li Mingyu realized that maybe it was the extraordinary power of this world that made his soul penetrate here, and maybe only by mastering the extraordinary power could he have a chance to find a way to return to Datang.

For cultivating or practicing martial arts, Li Mingyu has carefully considered it before, it is true that the immortal path and mana far exceed the secular martial arts and internal strength, but the immortal fate is ethereal and difficult to find, and many people from generation to generation have been deep in the mountains and overseas, and they have not had the opportunity to encounter it for decades or even a lifetime. Li Mingyu is very self-aware, and he doesn't think that he will be a special case, and he can meet the fairy in a short time.

So he chose the most practical and reliable choice to enter the martial arts sect to practice martial arts.

Facts have proved that Li Mingyu's choice is correct, even if it is just a sect like Jushimen, which is still a little famous in Pingyang Mansion, but only a third-rate sect in the Qi Kingdom, and is not even in the Three Kingdoms of the East China Sea, even if he has good qualifications, he still wasted a lot of effort to barely worship the entrance wall.

There is no need for those famous sects, or even immortal sects, the difficulty of getting started can be imagined.

……

After explaining in detail the division of the martial arts realm, the swarthy man taught a set of basic martial arts for beginners, and after leaving a sentence of "After you have achieved the completion of the exercise, I will hand over the content after you", and left leisurely with his hands behind his back.

The level of forging the body is the foundation of the foundation of martial arts, which is to exercise the strength of the body, the resistance to blows and the instinctive reaction of martial artists when fighting through martial arts routines.

As long as you are not afraid of pain and tiredness, and are willing to endure hardships, even ordinary people who do not have any martial arts qualifications can be successful in three months to half a year, not to mention Li Mingyu, a teenager with good martial arts qualifications.
