"So, if we can help him here, we will try our best to help him, but fortunately, after joining here, he rarely suffers from the hardships he used to have. ”

Although Qi Qiu was a little improper, his eyes showed true feelings when he said this.

"Don't just stand, find a place to sit. ”

Beggar Qiu beckoned Jiang Xiaoyu to sit at the wooden table, and ran to the wine cabinet to bring two barrels of wine and a few large plates of fragrant meat.

"Boy, do you want to call a few girls to play. ”

Beggar Qiu put the wine and meat on the table, raised his eyebrows at Jiang Xiaoyu, and shouted extremely obscenely.

"No, no, no, I don't like that. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu refused, he himself was a little disobedient when he said this, in his previous life, he also had another resounding name, called Huadu Swordsman, and when he heard this name, he knew that he was the master of the vertical and horizontal flower field.

The beggar seemed to be relieved when she heard this, and called the girl to spend a lot of money, and if the other party was unwilling, it would be better if she could save some silver, so she stopped talking, for fear that the other party would change her words.

After being silent for a long time, the beggar swallowed a piece of meat, tasted the wine, and asked his own question: "You said that you used to be a slave, where did this start?"

Jiang Xiaoyu, who was immersed in the sound of the piano and the dancing girl, stopped the chopsticks in his hand and said plainly all his experience of escaping from the mine, of course, the part of the internal force was selectively concealed in the words.

Jiang Xiaoyu seemed to be telling other people's life and death stories, and his tone didn't have too many ups and downs, but the beggar Qiu on the side was stunned, this was not something that a sixteen-year-old teenager could do at all.

"Your name?"

The kid shouted for a long time, and the beggar Qiu forgot to ask his name, and when he heard his experience again, he paid attention to the other party in his heart.

"Jiang Xiaoyu. ”

After hearing this, Qiqiu leaned forward and said in an aggravated tone: "Jiang Xiaoyu, are you willing to join the Free Capital?"

Jiang Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and then asked back, "Why did you suddenly want me to join the Free Capital?"

Beggar Qiu thought for a while, and then explained to Jiang Xiaoyu: In terms of the sphere of influence, the entire empire is not comparable to the free capital, almost every big city has the power of the free capital, and the eyeliner is all over the country, you can inquire about the whole empire What you want to know, that is to say, what you don't know, freedom knows, you don't dare to kill, freedom can help you assassinate, and the goods you dare not trade outside, freedom is allowed to trade, of course, the premise of these things is that you have to have enough silver.

However, although the power of freedom is extensive, after all, it is only a force with mortals as the grassroots, and there are no big people and masters who can support the façade, and other big forces don't want to provoke freedom, they just don't want to provoke lice, and besides, even the royal family needs information to be obtained from the free capital, so there is no threat to freedom for the time being, but the future is not easy to say, so the current urgency is to recruit more potential cultivators to ensure that there is a solid door panel to support the free capital in the future.

After learning all this, Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't help but value freedom a little more, but he still asked: "Then why do you think I will be able to support such a big force in the future." ”

Beggar Qiu smiled, as if he knew that the other party would ask like this, and replied slowly: "The first time I saw you, I really couldn't see anything special about you, at most I was more sophisticated, but after listening to your experience just now, I think you have a word written all over your body." ”

"What word?" Jiang Xiaoyu wondered.

"Inverse"

"You will not be satisfied with the status quo for anything, if you are in adversity at any time, you will want to break through, people like you, there are only two results in the future, one is to stand at the peak, the other is to fall at the peak, and there will never be that kind of result of living a life smoothly and steadily. ”

Beggar Qiu said with a smile, he used to say this to them as long as he brought it in, but this is also for the sake of freedom, and he casts a large net in a large area, and the chance will be greater, but when he said this sentence to Jiang Xiaoyu, he felt that this sentence was to describe the other party, and he believed it when he said it.

Jiang Xiaoyu only held a half-believing posture at this time, and smiled slightly: "Hahaha, don't praise me, but if you really do what you say, then freedom is also a good place, but I'm really sorry, I still have to think about this matter." ”

Jiang Xiaoyu's words were obviously also expected by Qi Qiu, and he didn't force the other party to join the other party's idea in his heart, nodded and said: "Well, if you have difficulties in the future, you can also come here to find me, we are free to our own people, and we have always been in trouble on one side, and all sides are supportive." ”

"Hahaha, thank you brother beggar. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu smiled gratefully, and at this time, an old hoarse voice came to them on the field: "Stinky boy, hasn't your leg been broken today?"

When Qiqiu heard this familiar voice, he was stunned for a moment, then showed a sincere smile, turned his head and turned into a look of disgust, and said in his mouth: "My leg is very good, and I can continue to fight tomorrow, but you old man, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I thought you were in the ground." ”

The two spoke-for-tat, you don't spare me, I won't spare you, but there was a feeling of meeting old friends in his tone, Jiang Xiaoyu looked at an old man with gray hair but a tough body walking towards their table with vigorous steps, and consciously quieted down and let the two of them reminisce.

"You kid, your mouth still stinks. ”

The old man sat next to Beggar Qiu with a smile, and greeted Jiang Xiaoyu opposite with a smile: "The beggar boy is a thief, Xiaoyou didn't suffer, right?"

Jiang Xiaoyu smiled and said embarrassedly: "Thank you seniors for reminding me, but the beggar brother takes care of me, and this meal of wine and meat is his guest." ”

"Okay, you kid can't get a drop of oil here, this time it's hard to be generous, or take advantage of my absence. ”

Looking at the old man and the beggar Qiu, the two of them quarreled at every turn, Jiang Xiaoyu was also infected, this is the sincere friendship between men, it turns out that this world is not as emotionless as it seems, but this cruel world is also trying to erase this feeling.

After Qiqiu's introduction, Jiang Xiaoyu knew that the people here called this old man He Laojiu, as for why he was called this name, Qiqiu didn't say much, only told him that there was a very miserable history behind this name.

"Okay, okay, Lao Jiu, let's get down to business. ”

"Say it. ”

The two finally ended their quarrel, and their tones changed from frivolous to solemn.

"I entered the puppet cave this time, can you help me sell the treasure I get. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoyu's brows also tightened, and when He Laojiu heard this, he was shocked and said: "Sell it, it's all treasures, and if you exchange a bunch of silver, you can't increase your strength." ”

Beggar Qiu sighed, and replied sadly: "I want to too, but this time our beggar gang finally got this quota, and all the gang friends gave this quota to me, you know, our beggar gang is only interested in eating and drinking, and they don't dare to hope for the growth of strength, so I promised them to go back this time, at least I have to bring back more than 100,000 silver taels, and only in this way can I repay them for giving up." ”

"Of course, I certainly wouldn't sell some particularly precious treasures, and I'm not that stupid. ”
