Twenty-one, five clouds combined
"Thirteen years old, shouldn't you still be in school? At the very least, you should still need spiritual cultivation. ”
"Actually, that's what I'm here to cultivate. I came here every day after the meditation to earn some tuition and living expenses. Zhao Yundao.
"Don't you have a local funeral center?"
"Yes, yes, but those people said that I learned a little fast, and when I was eleven years old, I had already exceeded the nine-year compulsory education course, and they said that they could no longer teach me, so they asked me to come here and find the Great North Spiritual Hall to continue studying, but the tuition fees here are very expensive, I had to worship a master to learn and comment, and then come here every day to earn some money, I still have a semester to graduate, but I haven't paid the fees for this semester, and I don't know if I can find the fees for the next semester. If I don't get it right, I'm going to drop out. Zhao Yun smiled bitterly.
As soon as she said this, Liu Wu suddenly realized. From this point of view, the young hero is extremely talented, and it is indeed her. I didn't expect a thought of benevolence to get this reward. Since it's her, he has to keep her on good terms.
"So, you especially need this job, don't you?"
Zhao Yun nodded.
"That's okay, that's what I just said, you can help me accompani, I'm singing a cappella now, the effect is discounted, if you can help me sing, I believe the effect will be much better, and you can earn more money, so that your tuition can be solved, right? It's not enough, I'll try to give you as much as I can, I won't need it for a while anyway. ”
Zhao Yun nodded, looking at Liu Wu gratefully, tears shining in his eyes. Well, it turned out to be a crying little girl, and it can be seen that she must be a simple little girl.
Although she is a thirteen-year-old child, she has not developed enough, no, she is basically not developed, she is thin and smaller than children of the same age, but her appearance is really beautiful, she is a beauty embryo, and when she grows up, she will definitely be a big beauty.
Seeing her such innocent eyes, Liu Wu felt a little ashamed in his heart, in fact, he really wanted to help her before knowing her identity, after knowing her identity, there was already a utilitarian element in his help, and helping her now was actually helping himself.
Liu Wu did what he said, from this day on, the income he received every day, in addition to the stage rent paid to the boss, he always directly divided the reward money into two piles (not counting), and then gave the larger pile directly to Zhao Yun, he took a small pile himself, whenever Zhao Yun wanted to resign, Liu Wu told her, I have a sister who is the same age as you, and now her whereabouts are unknown, I now regard you as my sister. His words can earn Zhao Yun's tears every time.
In this way, Zhao Yun really regarded Liu Wu as a big brother from then on, she was the first girl Liu Wu saw in this world without any sexism, of course, there is a reason here, it is that Liu Wu brought her a stronger shock. He is not at all as timid and shy as other boys, he is so submissive, he is full of confidence as soon as he sings, and he is very charming.
Liu Wude admitted that the following days were a very beautiful time for him, who was already in his thirties with an actual psychological age, and for Zhao Yun, who was only thirteen years old, this was the first time in his more than ten years in this world that he felt that life could be so peaceful, so warm, and so happy, and even made him forget his hatred and responsibility for a while. Although subjectively she does have an investment in helping Zhao Yun (in fact, Liu Wu is not sure whether this investment will pay off), her respect for Liu Wu is something he has never had in this world, and he feels very warm and pure. They are steadfast because of each other's existence, and warmth, and strength, and self-confidence, and the occasional glance at each other has given each other a sunny day, if the days go on like this, how good it would be.
Not only that, but here, Liu Wu also met his first friends in life - several boys in the store.
In order to reduce costs, such shops usually call a few boys to do the service, because the boys have the lowest usage fee, and if they are untouchables, they are even equivalent to free use. However, Kyoto is extremely restrictive on the entry of untouchables, and the number of untouchables is small, and young untouchables are rarely found, and most of them are children of commoners. These boys are doing cleaning work in the background, responsible for carrying dishes, washing vegetables, sweeping the floor, etc., they earn less, so for Liu Wu, at first they were very resentful and jealous, and then one of the boys named Xiaoba was sick and had no money to treat, the store was worried that he would not be able to get better, and they would fire him after closing, and the boys collectively cried and begged to no avail, Liu Wu listened to it next to him, so he gave Xiaoba some money for him to treat, and after Xiaoba got better, this group of boys regarded Liu Wu as a friend.
It turned out that it was a good idea for Liu Wu to ask Zhao Yun to help with the accompaniment. Because her task is to accompaniment, she no longer wears the kind of bulky storytelling clothes, but wears her student makeup, and matches her two small braids, which makes her image much refreshing, so that they are like a combination of beautiful women and handsome men, pleasing to the eye. And her accompaniment melodies are all added by Liu Wu according to memory, although the effect is far less than that of modern electroacoustic bands, but compared to cappella, it is obviously much better. Liu Wu was smug and named the group Five Clouds Combination.
Two months later, Liu Wu whimsically bought a drum and a cymbal from the market, and copied an electronic drum and asked the little boys to help beat it. It completely subverts people's stereotypes about music.
Therefore, this combination of five clouds has been very popular for a while, and more and more people have come to admire it. The daily income ranges from $30 to $60. The rent of the restaurateur is three dollars per night, which is not a large proportion, but it is actually a very high rent. Because the normal daily rent of a restaurant is only more than ten dollars. In addition, their small stage has been set up, and the business of the restaurant is positive, and the boss has not increased the rent much, and she is even worried that Liu Wu will go to other restaurants, and if the income is slightly less on some days, she also takes the initiative to reduce the rent to compensate them.
After removing the rent, the band basically had about fifty knife coins a day, half of which was given to Zhao Yun, and the other half, most of which was earned by Liu Wu, and the boys such as Xiaoba belonged to the nature of cameos, and they usually only took a few knife coins when they took the money, but no matter what, Zhao Yun and Liu Wu had already exceeded the per capita income of the capital at that time.
Liu Wu took the money every day, and while he was happy, he couldn't help but think of Liu Chong and Liu Feng, he hoped that when Zhao Yun finished his studies and their money had accumulated enough, he could let her accompany him to find these two younger sisters, and she would see people alive and corpses when she died......
There is one thing that Liu Wu regrets, although the reputation of the small band in the restaurant is getting louder and louder, attracting more and more music lovers, some common words, and even a special seat to listen to songs, but only a few streets away from Situ Wangfu, no one has come...... Liu Wu's wishful thinking was not to think of being the master of the palace as a mink, but to let the people of the palace invite him, but in front of them, he opened the bounty in the box and showed them it, and then proudly refused...... It's a pity that this scene has never been realized, making him less fun for revenge.
Autumn goes to winter, happy days always pass in a hurry, a year has passed in a blink of an eye, Zhao Yun's spiritual cultivation in the Great North Pavilion has come to the last year, the longer and more handsome young Liu Wu, and the longer and more beautiful girl Zhao Yun, also entered the standard adolescence, when the two are alone, the words begin to become less, and the heart begins to beat fast...... When the color of life is getting thicker and stronger, on this day, a group of people suddenly came to the restaurant...... Liu Wu's life normalcy was once again broken.
