XVIII. Tribulation
The old woman said: "Lord Wang, you can listen to the wild children in the countryside singing, let me go away first, I don't want to pollute my ears." As he spoke, he said to a man who looked like an attendant next to him: "Take my cloak, I will leave quickly, I can't delay Lord Wang from appreciating this beautiful song of a country genius, and a stupid person like me can't appreciate such a singing." ”
The little mink whispered, "Master, don't be angry. ”
The old woman said: "How dare I be angry, there are beautiful men singing, I don't want to listen to it, do I dare to let others not listen?" ”
Wang Situ said: "Okay, okay, Master Lin, what you said makes sense, what serious things can a civilian boy from the countryside sing?" If you don't listen, go and go to the tent to take your round-trip fare, and don't do such a ridiculous thing in the future, and if you do such a thing again, you will bear your own losses. ”
Xiao Shi heard that the travel fee could be returned, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and pulled Liu Wu to leave while pleading guilty, Liu Wu was very angry and didn't want to leave, but looking at the attitude of this old woman, there was really no room for maneuver, so she had to leave hatefully.
Xiao Shi came to the account room and got the money in his hand, a total of 1,200 knife coins back and forth, and the total number of the two of them was 1,000 knife coins, out of Situ Mansion, Xiao Shi immediately changed his former harmony, sneered and took out a few knife coins and said: "Liu Wu, you are wandering everywhere anyway, you don't have to go back with me, you take the thirty knife coins and fend for yourself." ”
Liu Wu is not a fool, people are sent according to the subsidy of 300 dollars per person for a one-way trip, she doesn't let Liu Wu go back, but she actually plans to use 30 dollars to send him away, how can he be willing, but it is useless, a boy, fighting with any adult woman can only endure hardships and be beaten, and finally Xiao Shi viciously threw 30 dollars to the ground and walked away, and warned him: "You are just a stupid man in the countryside, what is my identity, I have been with you so hard for so long, this money is not enough for my hard work, Give you thirty knife coins, I have already done my duty, hum, that is, I still have a little sympathy for a homeless man, and if you meet someone else, it will be your good luck if you don't snatch it all from you. ”
She is a woman, she has spiritual power, she is stronger than Liu Wu, a hero does not suffer immediate losses, and Liu Wu did not say anything more. Xiao Shi sang proudly and left. And the tune she sang was something he inadvertently uttered for her to learn.
Liu Wu picked up the thirty knife coins from the ground, and watched Xiao Shitou leave without looking back, he really wanted to cry.
The world is so difficult, these thirty knife coins, plus the fifteen knife coins and forty-five knife coins that Li Tong gave him last time, how can he live? Liu Wu has always been grateful to Xiao Shi who cared about him along the way, but he didn't expect that she just came to Situ Mansion to sing master, and she didn't take him seriously at all.
Is there a good woman in this Han Dynasty, why are these women he meets, whether they are middle-aged or young, so cruel to him?
And as a boy, is he really destined to become useless waste?
No, I won't give in. Never give in! One day, I will let the women of this world know that men are not all so easy to bully, and what you took from me, I must double it back.
Fortunately, this is Luoyang City, the capital of the Han Dynasty, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, there must be a chance here, okay, my destiny, I am in charge of myself, I don't rely on anyone, I want to rely on my own expertise, gain a foothold here, and create my own world.
That's it.
Of course, if you want to develop, you must survive. If you want to change your fate, you must first survive.
Although Liu Wu has no other body, he is handsome, has a good singing voice, and has songs from the memories of his previous life. He is convinced that this is the capital of his survival.
Liu Wu found a small cheap hotel nearby, the kind that costs two dollars a day's accommodation.
Because Liu Wu is not dead. He always felt that Wang Situ's hesitation was caused by the old woman, but in fact, she should still want to listen to Liu Wu sing. After all, Liu Wu knew her ultimate goal. If this goal is not achieved, she will not be reconciled.
Liu Wu regretted it a little, in fact, he should have sung it desperately, everyone has come here, it's better to give it a try, it's better than leaving in the dust. However, maybe he was afraid of the aura of the big official, or he was still a little weak-hearted. didn't dare to open his voice, so that he was unwilling to do so.
Liu Wu thought, maybe even Wang Situ might regret not insisting on letting him sing it.
His idea now is to sing near Situ's mansion so that Wang Situ can hear his singing.
Actually, the old woman was right, a little boy from the countryside shouldn't have been able to sing much. After all, this is not the world where there are singing voices everywhere, there are too few people here who can sing, under normal circumstances, what kind of singing ability can a country boy have?
However, Liu Wu is not so normal, not only does he retain the memories of his previous life, but this memory is not like the legend, the older he gets, the more blurred it becomes, perhaps because he has not been able to let go of everything in his previous life, these memories have always been so clear. Songs that haven't been sung for more than ten years can be remembered so clearly.
Now, Liu Wu wants to use such memories to help him survive in this world. It's a little bit of cheating, but what's the solution, it's all because the world is so upside down and confused, which stimulates him and makes him even more locked in the memories of his past life.
However, after a few days of trying, Liu Wu found that singing on the streets of the neighborhood was completely unworkable.
Maybe because this is the capital, there are a lot of city cleaners, and they have been patrolling, every time Liu Wu has just opened a stall, there are city cleaners who come over, carry Liu Wu away with chickens, and warn him that if he goes down, he will be fined, although Liu Wu does not dress like a homeless man at all, but the boys singing on the street itself is an act of polluting the city air, and other places can turn a blind eye, but this is Kyoto, under the feet of the goddess, there is no room for sand.
In fact, if it weren't for Liu Wu being too handsome and dressed very cleanly, so that the cleaners would have a good impression, I'm afraid that there would be no need for a warning, and he would have been punished directly.
But Liu Wu didn't give up, he just had such a temper, he didn't let him sing, he had to sing, he just wanted to sing it, at best let the people in the palace hear it, and take the initiative to respectfully find him back, so that the damn old brick family could taste the taste of being slapped in the face, so he had to sing, and as a result, he was finally fined, ten dollars each time...... The city cleaner of the capital, Liu Wu is estimated to be the elite of the cleaners of the Han Dynasty, and his spiritual power value is even higher than that of ordinary township chiefs, once they see it, he can't even run.
On the fifth day, Liu Wu looked at the only two knife coins left in his hand, and he didn't dare to try to sing here anymore. After all, survival is all that matters. He has no relatives here, and he doesn't have any capital that can be capricious.
Is it really time to leave the city in disgrace and start his wandering journey again? It was already late autumn, and it would be a long winter, and the thought of the cold north wind made Liu Wu's heart chill. He didn't have the spiritual power that women had, and he couldn't resist the cold wind outside, but staying here, he could only hide in the streets of Tibet like the homeless, which was even more unacceptable to him.
He struggled for a night and decided to leave the city anyway.
On the morning of the sixth day, he packed up everything and was about to leave, but was stopped by the shopkeeper's husband. He is a kind old man from other places, and he has always been very kind to this handsome boy who wanders here alone in the standard official language, and every day when he sees him return in frustration, he will be kind to him, but now he can see something from Liu Wu's expression, and immediately said: "Are you leaving?" ”
Liu Wu could still feel the kindness of this old man, and said with a wry smile: "No way......"
The old man said: "It's a pity that I'm not a restaurant here, so I don't need a fireman, otherwise...... Don't you want to try it in a restaurant, you can pay for accommodation until you get a job. ”
A word to wake up the dreamer.
Liu Wu walked into a snack bar with a hard head, after all, this is the capital, and there must still be work such as lighting the fire, washing vegetables, serving dishes, etc., even if the salary is not much, it can also solve the problem of food and clothing. After entering, he saw that there was actually a small stage in this restaurant, and a twelve or thirteen-year-old storyteller girl was telling a story on it, talking about an old storytelling, basically no one listened carefully, and the little girl's mood did not seem to be high, and she was talking listlessly, Liu Wu suddenly had an idea, and a bold idea came up - he bravely found the owner of the restaurant, a fat old woman.
