Liu Feng followed Jiang Tong all the way, and kept shouting in his ear to get his money back, but Jiang Tong was helpless.

After a long time, this Jiang Tong seems to have gotten used to it, no longer paying attention to Liu Feng, no matter how he calls, Jiang Tong just continues to swim with him. Liu Feng saw that he ignored himself, and his heart was horizontal, anyway, he had no place to go now, seeing that this Jiang Tong was also a Jiangdu person, and no matter how bad it was, he had a place to stay, so he thought about following him, and he had a place to settle.

And Jiang Tong didn't seem to care that Liu Feng had been following, and the two walked tacitly on this Jiangdu Street. Along the way, Liu Feng saw this Jiang Tong walking around, not like he was going home, and Jiang Tong didn't seem to be in a hurry. I don't know where he got the money, he bought a lot of food along the way, Liu Feng thought to himself that he stole it from someone on the street because he was not paying attention!

Although Liu Feng was a little sneering at his behavior, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart, what he admired was that this Jiang Tong was so good, but unfortunately it was not used in the right way.

In other words, this Jiang Tong is also righteous, seeing that Liu Feng followed him all the way, he also threw some food to Liu Feng from time to time, and Liu Feng was not polite, no matter how he got the money to buy it, anyway, when he was hungry, he took it and ate it. Seeing that it was not early, this Jiang Tong was still leisurely, and it seemed that he would not go home if it was not dark.

In this way, the day was coming to an end soon, and Liu Feng was a little tired following Jiang Tong, that is, he was slightly inattentive, and his eyes were not on Jiang Tong for a while, and Jiang Tong disappeared.

Liu Feng slapped his thigh angrily, as if he was blaming himself for his carelessness, but he had no choice but to be helpless.

On the edge of Jiangdu City, in front of a ruined temple, Jiang Tong came with the food he bought. As soon as Jiang Tong walked into the temple, six or seven children, all about three or four years old, ran out of the temple, and they shouted happily, "Brother Ah Tong is back." "Brother Ah Tong brought something delicious?" "Why did you come back so late today, we are all worried about you." ”

Jiang Tong distributed the food to them, touched their heads with his hand, and said with a smile: "Brother brought you delicious food, you all have it, you are too busy today, and you came back late, are you all obedient?"

A child with snot said with a smile: "Brother Ah Tong, we are all very well-behaved, we haven't gone out randomly, and we have been waiting for you to come back." ”

"Yes, we have been waiting for you in the temple all this time, and we are all worried about you at such a late hour. The other children responded.

Jiang Tong helped the kid wipe the snot that was about to fall into his mouth, and said with a smile: "I know, Xiaowen is the most well-behaved." ”

Seeing that Jiang Tong was a little 'eccentric', the other children also responded: "We are also well-behaved!"

Jiang Tong was helpless, so he had to comfort him one by one: "Good, all good, that's why Brother Tong brought you so much delicious food." ”

While they were hip-hopping with each other, Liu Feng suddenly appeared outside the temple gate, and in the face of the sudden stranger, the children stopped making noise and looked a little scared. Jiang Tong looked at it and comforted the children: "Don't be afraid, this brother is my friend, he won't hurt you, don't be afraid!"

"Then why haven't we seen him, Brother Ah Tong, you have never talked to us!" a little girl with a dirty face said in a low voice, a little scared.

"yes, yes, we've never seen him before. The other children also responded.

Liu Feng stood at the door, looking at the scene in front of him, and didn't know what to do for a while. At this time, Jiang Tong walked to Liu Feng's side and said to the children: "Of course you haven't seen it, this is my new friend today, called ......"

Jiang Tong put his hand on Liu Feng's shoulder and squeezed him, winked at him, and whispered, "What's your name?"

Although Liu Feng was a little reluctant to this Jiang Tong, he still reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said: "My name is Liu Feng, the willow of the willow tree, the wind of the big wind, and I only met him today." ”

Jiang Tong smiled and bumped into Liu Feng, Liu Feng rolled his eyes at him, Liu Feng still had a trace of disgust for this Jiang Tong in his heart, after all, he stole his own silver taels.

And those children saw that the two were really like friends as Jiang Tong said, so they hugged up, surrounded Liu Feng, and called Liu Feng very happily, Liu Feng couldn't bear the enthusiasm of the children, and was pulled into the temple by them.

Maybe it was a new friend, the children asked Liu Feng this and that, and when they saw Liu Feng carrying a sword, they asked him if he was a hero with strong martial arts. Liu Feng was always blushing from the children's questions, and hurriedly explained that he was not a hero, and that he was carrying a wooden sword. But in order not to disappoint the children, he said that this wooden sword was given by a very powerful sword cultivator, and he took this wooden sword to find that very powerful sword cultivator. After that, everyone asked Liu Feng again, and Liu Feng also responded patiently to what he knew, and this night, because of Liu Feng's arrival, it became particularly lively.

It was late at night, and the children were tired, so they all fell asleep first.

Outside the temple, Liu Feng walked over, and Jiang Tong, who was sitting on the side, turned his head slightly and looked at it, and said very calmly: "Thank you, I have been panicked for me, so as not to embarrass me in front of this group of children." ”

Liu Feng also sat down and said, "What's the matter with these children? You stole money just to buy food for them?"

Jiang Tong was silent for a while, looked at the sky, frowned, and said slowly: "Otherwise, you can't let me watch them starve to death." ”

Liu Feng looked at Jiang Tong at this time, feeling that he seemed to have misunderstood him, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. Jiang Tong saw that Liu Feng didn't speak, so he spoke again: "These children are all orphans, don't look at this Jiangdu City is magnificent and prosperous. Who knows how many poor and impoverished, unrelated and homeless people there are. ”

"I thought you were a ......"

"Shameless thief, groveling coward, hmph! I don't care what others say, I just know that the important thing is to be able to eat enough to survive, that's all, I don't care what people think of me. Jiang Tong's tone of voice was obviously a little different from before.

Liu Feng didn't speak, just looked at Jiang Tong, he didn't know what kind of story was behind this young man who looked like a scoundrel on the surface.

Jiang Tong snorted.

"That's right, I'm also an orphan, born here, and I didn't have parents at a very young age. I've been bullied by many people like Hai Ge since I was a child, and I'm used to it. Anyway, it's the same, instead of being beaten in vain, it's better to let go of that face and beg in a low voice, so as to avoid the pain of the flesh and skin. After Jiang Tong finished speaking, he said with a smug expression: "Besides, what's bad about stealing, being stolen without people knowing anything about it, that's also my ability." ”

Liu Feng listened to him, although he had a little sympathy for him, but he still didn't agree with his obedient and unashamed words, but he couldn't say anything for a while.

"Since I was a child, I have been begging for food from door to door, and I can be regarded as a person who eats hundreds of meals. When I grow a little older, that's the first time, I, that's real, I'm real," Jiang Tong's tone was a little hurried.

"I saw that other people had a lot of money, why? Why didn't I have it, so the first time, it was what you call stealing! Anyway, that time I was caught, and it was Brother Hai's money that I was stolen, and I was beaten very badly, and then Brother Hai told me to steal people everywhere on the street, and most of the money I got was given to him, so that I could pay the price for stealing his money. ”

"Then why don't you resist, haven't you thought about leaving here?" Liu Feng said.

Jiang Tong looked at Liu Feng blankly, then turned his face and said: "If I meet those who want to bully me, I will also resist, but when I meet Brother Hai, I can run and run, and I can hide, if I don't meet you, I will be blocked in a dead alley by him, and I can't run." I've thought about leaving, but where can I go? There are more bad people than good people in this world, and who can guarantee that there won't be someone like Brother Hai when I go to another place?"

Jiang Tong turned his head and glanced at the sleeping children in the ruined temple again, and said: "These children are all taken in by me on weekdays, they are all orphans, like me, I can't bear to see them become people like me in the future, so I took them in and brought them back here to settle down." What will happen to them when I'm gone? Who would think if they were to be submissive, but a lot of times, many things are not changed by us, all I can do is not let them starve, that's all. ”

"No, we can. Liu Feng said seriously: "I am similar to you, I used to live day after day. But then I met her and let me know that there is another way to live in this world, and that is to become a sword cultivator, so I left my hometown and went alone to find the ideal that haunted my dreams, hoping that one day I could also become the most powerful sword cultivator standing on the top of a high mountain. ”

Jiang Tong opened his mouth and looked at his confident and resolute appearance blankly, his face full of doubt. At this moment, Jiang Tong felt very dissatisfied with what this young man of the same age in front of him was doing.

"I thought you were a swordsman, but I didn't expect you to be an ordinary person who doesn't even have a sword, that's not our way, at least never think about it again in this life. Jiang Tong turned his head to the side, covering Liu Feng so that he could not see that his eyes were already a little dull.

"I haven't tried it, how do you know that this is not our way? No matter how many immortal swordsmen are like us, as long as they have a dream in their hearts, they must pursue it, even if they can't reach it in the end, I admit it, at least I have been." Liu Feng's eyes were full of this persistence, and he swore solemnly.

"Hmph, I won't tell you this, I stole your money, although you still helped me cover up in front of them, I am grateful. I know you won't want what I stole from you, and I don't think you've got anywhere to go now, so let's stay here first. When I have money, I mean I didn't steal it, I'll pay you back, and then you can chase your dreams again!" Jiang Tong got up and walked towards the temple. Suddenly he stopped, turned his head back slightly, and said, "If you were my friend, I would do it." ”

After Jiang Tong finished speaking, he turned around and walked away, while the corners of Liu Feng's mouth rose slightly, showing a hint of relief in his heart, at least now Liu Feng already thought that this Jiang Tong was a good person.
