Chapter 53: The Old Beggar
Tang Ye guessed many possibilities, but none of them could be directly confirmed.
"It seems that we still have to investigate it carefully to see what kind of goods this Chen Feng is."
After thinking about it, Tang Ye regained his speed and began to exercise in a more high-quality manner.
Jank's words last night undoubtedly stimulated him. Now he has begun to take the initiative to improve his physical strength.
In order to be in bed in the future...... Phew, in order to have a higher survival rate on the battlefield.
After running for nearly an hour and a half in the morning, Tang Ye returned to the restaurant where he stayed last night. After taking a hot shower and changing into clean clothes, it was about nine o'clock in the morning.
Yang Ke didn't know where to go to vent his "murderous desire", so Tang Ye had to go out alone and stroll through the wide streets of Bailu City.
There are already more people at this point, and many people who look like old women have rushed back from the market, carrying flower baskets full of vegetables in their hands, with inexplicable joyful smiles on their faces.
According to the location noted during the morning run, Tang Ye walked into the medical hall or pharmacy that had opened the door in turn.
However, what made him a little disappointed was that after visiting three or four stores, none of them had the formula of [Killing Fruit], and even if it was just an antidote, he didn't have the slightest clue.
However, after asking to no avail, Tang Ye also pretended to inadvertently ask some about the situation of the partial general Chen Feng. The result was unanimously praised, which made him very distressed.
Kill, it's very simple, send Yank to go, you can definitely get it in one day. But this can lead him to mistakenly kill a good one.
Although he Tang Ye didn't plan to be a good person, he didn't want to be infamous as a "wicked person".
Especially if you kill innocents indiscriminately, it will chill your subordinates and reduce their loyalty.
But if you don't kill, you can't complete the task, and when the time comes, the punishment of heaven will come, and maybe more people will die.
Just as Tang Ye was struggling as he walked, suddenly, he felt something kicked under his feet.
Hard, but with a little bit of toughness.
Tang Ye lowered his head and saw a leg exposed to the air like skin and bones!
Shocked, Tang Ye looked up along the yellow and wrinkled legs, and saw a face that made him feel terrified!
The wrinkled black skin, the deeply sunken eye sockets, the hollow gaze, the slight black marks left by the completely lost eyebrows, the nose almost like an awl......
Finally, it is accompanied by a mouth with a silent and weird smile -
In an instant, Tang Ye thought that he had become the male protagonist in "The Walking Dead"!
Instinctively taking a step back, Tang Ye noticed that what was in front of him was not a terrifying, extremely aggressive zombie, but a weak beggar with little to no mobility.
Tsk, this is a genuine beggar, who is already so hungry that he only has skin and bones, and is completely different from the guys who earned tens of thousands of dollars a month in Tang Ye's previous life.
In the war years, starvation was everywhere, and corpses were everywhere, in fact, it was a normal phenomenon. Even under the relatively stable Liu Pei's forces, there is no shortage of such scrawny beggars.
Compared with them, the villagers of Niuyin Village live a good life.
Tang Ye sighed lightly, reached out and took out a bronze Lingjue from his arms, intending to give alms to the other party.
However, as soon as he bent down, he suddenly caught a glimpse of some other beggars not far away, staring at him with hungry wolf eyes.
After hesitating for a moment, Tang Ye silently retracted the hand that had been stretched out.
He could give alms to one person, but he couldn't give alms to all the beggars in the city. He is not Liu Pei, nor is he Chen Feng, he is not capable of helping the world now, and he has no intention of being such a fool.
Looking at the beggar in front of him again, Tang Ye's mood was a little weird.
Because at this moment, the beggar still had the weird smile on his face that had not changed, which made him panic.
He shook his head, intending to leave. At that moment, a hoarse, obscure, non-human voice rang out.
Tang Ye felt that this voice was even more unpleasant than the voice of the Six Dao!
"It's hard to listen to your sister! Grinding and chirping, wasting time to get stronger! Six dissatisfied voices rang out.
Tang Ye's face changed slightly, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, and listened carefully to the voice of the beggar:
"Young people...... What do you think...... Chen Feng is a person...... What do you think? β
"Huh? Chen Feng again? β
Tang Ye smiled slightly. It seems that the Fortune Sword is still playing its due role, and his luck value has indeed been improved a lot, and what he thinks about in his heart can always meet relevant people and things.
Looking at the iconic smile on the beggar's face, Tang Ye didn't know how much the other party had been stimulated to keep showing such an exaggerated expression.
He didn't leave in a hurry, and carefully recalled the investigation of Chen Feng this morning, it was really zero bad reviews! It's better than a mysterious organization dressed in yellow.
"I ...... Not very clear, but from what I know, he seems to be a good guy. Tang Ye replied.
Hearing this, the strange smile on the scrawny old beggar's face gradually expanded.
"Oh, everyone in the world is drunk, and I am sober...... Hehe, everyone in the world is drunk, how can I wake up alone......"
The old beggar laughed, like a skeleton monster covered in a layer of skin, and the wrinkled skin on his face that was clinging to the bones was constantly pulled, giving Tang Ye a terrible feeling that it would tear at any time.
"Everyone in the world is drunk, and you are sober...... Do you mean to say that what everyone sees is fake, and only what you see is true? Tang Ye keenly captured the meaning of the other party's words.
The old beggar's laughter came to an abrupt end, and the strange smile gradually retracted.
He looked at Tang Ye, and a glimmer of light appeared in his cloudy old eyes.
Saw the light of the kind!
"I can't imagine that before my Zhuge Xuanzong died, I could still see an insightful person, haha! There are no regrets about dying! I don't regret dyingβ"
The old beggar looked happy, and there were wisps of tears running down his cheeks in his deeply sunken eyes!
Tang Ye's heart was slightly moved. From the other party's slightly crepe words, weird smile, and name that didn't sound simple, he could see that this beggar had a faint sense of extraordinary!
Could it be that he is a character of the same level as Yanke?
He took a step forward, endured a foul smell, squatted in front of the other party, and asked in a somewhat respectful tone, "Who is the gentleman, and why did he fall here?" β
The old beggar glanced at Tang Ye, and a trace of pain appeared on his face. But after a long silence, he still spoke slowly and recounted his past......
"I am a strategist under Ma Long's subordinates in the central part of Yunzhou, and he has made countless suggestions and established the position of the overlord of the central part for Ma Long, but a year ago, because of a mistake I made, a young and beautiful woman under Ma Long's command was captured by Jiang Yao's forces......"
