Chapter 975: No Hope
"Boss, don't bring such a blow. ”
The tavernkeeper's words were too realistic, so realistic that Junlin felt that this world was not beautiful at all.
The "correct" thing the boss said was awakening and cultivating. This is what the secular world thinks is right, that is, it is absolutely right. And if you want to live in peace, you must abide by what the secular world thinks is correct, that is, awakening and cultivating.
According to this, without Yuan Li, he stands on the opposite side of the secular world and stands on the wrong side. There is only one dead end in the future...
However, the hotel owner, who did not know Junlin's actual situation, was dissatisfied with Junlin's complaints, and replied calmly: "This is the reality, you have to accept it sooner or later." Tell you this in advance now to avoid regrets in the future. ”
The tavern owner had no ill intentions, he persuaded him purely to make Jun Lin break off the idea of not waking up. After all, in his opinion, Jun Lin's idea of "not wanting to wake up" was too stupid, and it was the first time he had met someone with such thoughts.
If you don't wake up, how will you survive in this world in the future?
The tavernkeeper's words, Jun Lin listened.
Although it was better to keep listening, Junlin still actively adjusted his mentality, and decided that he didn't want to do anything in the future, and solved the current problem first.
"Boss, do you know which city in Linghuang Country has the lowest consumption level?"
Hearing Jun Lin suddenly ask such a question, the tavern owner subconsciously replied: "I don't know the cheapest, but the consumption level of the neighboring big cities in the south of our Cloud City is quite low. After answering, the tavern owner who reacted asked, "Why are you asking this?"
Jun Lin replied, "I'll go there tomorrow." ”
Tavernkeeper: "... ”
Why are you asking this, and you just replied that you were going there tomorrow? What are you doing? A child running away to another big city? Running away from home?
Next, out of concern and curiosity, the tavern owner asked Jun Lin why he wanted to go there, but in the end, he still didn't ask any facts from Jun Lin's mouth. I had no choice but to give up.
The tavern owner asked Jun Lin to ask nothing, but when Jun Lin asked the tavern owner, the tavern owner still knew everything.
After inquiry, Jun Lin learned that the tavern he was currently in was located on the edge of the northern city of Cloud City, and it would take about eleven hours to take the Phoenix Rail to the teleportation array leading to the neighboring big city in the south on the edge of the southern city.
Eleven hours... It's too late to leave today. In the final analysis, it is because of the rule that you are not allowed to sleep on the Phoenix Rail, and Jun Lin is really difficult to let go of this. Why is it that the Phoenix Rail can run 24 hours a day, but passengers are not allowed to sleep in it?
At first, Jun Lin didn't have the courage to speak, but now after chatting with the tavern owner for a while, Jun Lin asked the tavern owner if he could spend the night in that locker room in order to save money for tonight's accommodation. And offered to continue working tomorrow morning without pay.
Faced with Junlin's proposal, the tavern owner agreed. But the premise is that Junlin wants to tell the truth, why should he go south to another big city.
In this regard, Jun Lin thought about it, and finally chose to tell the truth: "I am alone now, and I can only support myself if I want to live." So find a place where the consumption level is low and it is convenient to live. ”
"Alone, what about the elders in your family?" asked the tavernkeeper.
Jun Lin replied: "I am an orphan. ”
The tavernkeeper's expression couldn't help but change.
Orphan. No wonder he hasn't woken up until now. Whether you enter the academy or the sect, you have to pay money. If you can't pay the money, you can't get in. If you can't enter the gate of the academy or sect, there will be no way to awaken.
The tavern owner didn't know how Junlin, who had no support since he was a child, grew up like this, but he wouldn't ask.
Without saying anything sympathetic, the tavern owner just agreed with Junlin's choice: "If that's the case, going to the big city to the south is the right choice." There may be tuition-free academies out there, and even if it's almost, at least it will awaken you. When you wake up, there is hope. ”
Jun Lin heard the last sentence, and his heart was bitter. Awakening that there is hope for all ... I have no hope.
After a pause, the tavern owner made an official reply to Junlin's previous proposal: "You can stay here tonight." Doors open tomorrow morning at 7 a.m., remember to wake up early. ”
The proposal to spend the night here was agreed to by the tavern owner, and Junlin's face finally showed a happy smile again: "Thank you, boss." ”
Junlin is not familiar with the place, and it is a trouble to find a hotel here. Finding a hotel that is affordable to you can afford is even more troublesome. And it's unknown whether there are any available rooms.
Now that there is a ready-made place to spend the night, although there is no bed, it can shelter from the wind and rain, and it is indoors, and Junlin is already content. Anyway, Junlin is used to sleeping on the floor.
In fact, Jun Lin doesn't mind sleeping on the street if he can, but after the last encounter of "sleeping on the street at night and being in prison the next day when he woke up", Jun Lin didn't dare. Because now I have no Yuan Li, and I have no ability to protect myself. If something happens again, it's really over.
After solving the accommodation problem tonight, Junlin's work is also up. Now there are no guests, so there is no need for Junlin to do anything. But when you have nothing to do, you can find something to do, such as cleaning.
The inside of the tavern is very clean and does not need to be cleaned, even if it is carefully planned. But the tavern owner didn't stop Junlin from taking the initiative to be courteous, and let Junlin wipe the table with a wet rag.
。。。
In less than ten minutes, a sudden crisp sound of "jingle bells" broke the quiet atmosphere in the tavern. There are guests coming.
Hearing the movement, Jun Lin immediately stopped what he was doing and went to receive the first customer he met here.
"Welcome. ”
The guest who came was a woman, and she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she saw Jun Lin, and then began to look at Jun Lin carefully. After looking at it for a while, the female guest asked the tavernkeeper, "How did you find a waiter?"
The tavern owner explained: "It's a temporary worker. ”
The female guest was relieved when she heard this, and the first time she saw Junlin, she thought that the child was malnourished. Now that he has been recruited as a temporary worker, he should see that he is pitiful and help him.
In the next second, the woman looked at Jun Lin again, and beckoned to Jun Lin with a smile: "Come on." ”
Jun Lin did not resist, and immediately walked over obediently, and asked politely, "Hello, what do you want?"
Hearing that Jun Lin was the first to come to this sentence, the female guest couldn't help laughing: "I'm much more familiar than you here." As she spoke, she took out a small copper-colored can from her spatial ring and handed it to Jun Lin.
"Since the boss helped you, I mean it too. When you're growing your body, take more nutrients. ”
Looking at the small copper-colored can that the female guest handed to him, Jun Lin was stunned for a moment and didn't answer.
Seeing that Junlin didn't move, the female customer thought that Junlin didn't know what it was and felt scared and at a loss, so she said gently: "Don't be afraid, it's a nutrient." ”
And the next second, the tavern owner suddenly said: "He is afraid that this thing is precious, so he doesn't dare to accept it." After a pause, the tavern owner explained to Jun Lin, "This thing is quite expensive. ”
"Hey!"
The tavernkeeper's words caused the female customer to scream in dissatisfaction. Knowing that this little guy was worried that Guicai wouldn't dare to accept it, why did he tell the truth and prevent her from sending out her kindness.
