Chapter 5 On the Boat
It may not be accurate to say that he is an acquaintance, but more precisely, he should be a person who is more familiar with Li Jianxing, and he has only seen the person in front of him in Li Jianxing's understanding.
"Ah, Father Priest didn't expect to see you again, I thought I was wrong, but I didn't expect it to be you, did you come here to treat people?"
The visitor was wearing sunglasses, an old blue suit, and carrying a small suitcase in his hand, dressed like an office worker in the city. He greeted Li Jianxing with a somewhat reverent tone.
"Well, hello, I have indeed seen you, you are the boy back then, your name seems to be ...... Ray, Leoli, right? ”
"Yes, I'm Leoli, I didn't expect you to remember my name, Father Priest, last time my friend Pi Yeduo was able to continue his life by relying on your treatment, but ......" Leoli's tone was grateful, and at the same time he showed a painful look when he mentioned Pi Yaduo.
"It's that kid, I'm sorry to think about it, I'm just a priest, not a doctor, and there are some things that only doctors can solve."
Speaking of which, Li Jianxing and Leoli met a few years ago, when Leoli seemed to have heard that he would help people treat for free, so he brought his friends to ask Li Jianxing to help with treatment.
But his friend Pi Ye suffered from a rare viral disease, although Li Jianxing's healing magic and purification magic were magical, but the effect on some viruses was not too obvious, but it was good for external injuries such as disability, and Li Jianxing's own level was not high at that time, so he did not completely cure his friend, but only continued the life of that Pi Yeduo, according to the situation at that time, Li Jianxing estimated that if Pi Yeduo was still not treated, he would die in another year at most.
Thinking of this, Li Jianxing asked, "Speaking of which, how is your friend?" Have you been cured? Speaking of Pi Yeduo, Leoli's mood became a little heavy, and his tone became lower:
"No, although after your treatment, Pi Yeduo's body has improved a lot, and the money required for treatment has been greatly reduced, but that amount is still not something we can afford, so this skin and skin disease is gradually getting worse......
Li Jianxing could hear the pain and unwillingness in Leoli's heart, and Li Jianxing was also a little embarrassed when he saw him like this, but he didn't have anything to help him at the beginning, because Li Jianxing had no money at that time.
This is not a lie, Li Jianxing has not had a large amount of income in the past three years, except for the gold and diamonds before entering, all the expenses in the future are all earned by Billy, but although Billy earns back a lot of money, but cultivation requires a lot of cherished tonic medicinal materials to assist, many precious medicinal materials or ingredients can only be obtained by professional hunters, and the price in the market is also very high, so the money on hand Li Jianxing is all left hand in and right hand out, never more than 500,000 rings.
Although the number of 500,000 is not small, the purchasing power of the nuns themselves is not high, and a juice requires hundreds of nuns, so it is conceivable that 500,000 nuns are nothing at all. At that time, Li Jianxing had already given all the money on his body to Leoli, but the money was still not enough to pay for the cost of curing that skin. Listening to Leoli's words now, that Pi Duo must have died, otherwise he would have begged himself to help with the treatment again.
Just as Li Jianxing was about to say something to comfort Leoli, he suddenly said, "But it's okay, I've already decided that I'm going to take the hunter exam and become a hunter!" Leoli said this, as if to lift his spirit: "As long as you can become a hunter, you will definitely be able to make a lot of money, and when the time comes, you can help those who look down on the disease." ”
Seeing Leoli's hopeful appearance, Li Jianxing did not speak, the hunter exam is a very cruel exam, except for a small number of people who can get out of it every year, most of the rest will lose their lives or be disabled for life, he chose a dangerous path.
Li Jianxing can feel that Leoli's strength is much stronger than that of ordinary people, but this kind of strength is very reluctant to participate in the hunter exam, and it can even be said that it is not enough at all, unless the questions encountered by luck are not too difficult, and the level of candidates is generally low, otherwise Leoli will definitely fail. But looking at the persistence in Leoli's eyes, Li Jianxing knew that he would not listen to his advice.
Thinking of this, Li Jianxing could only pat Leoli on the shoulder and said: "Do you want to take the hunter exam, it just so happens that the three of us here are also going to participate, let's do it together, let me introduce you, this is my housekeeper Billy, this is Xiaojie, Billy, Xiaojie, this is Leoli." ”
"Really! Father, are you going to take the exam too! That's great! Ah, there's a good guy, my name is Leoli. Leoli seemed very happy, because he met acquaintances during the exam, especially Li Jianxing, who had helped him.
Billy nodded coldly at Leoli, he didn't really pay much attention to anyone other than Li Jianxing. Xiaojie said happily: "Hello, uncle, I'm Xiaojie." ”
"Don't call me uncle, I'm only 18 years old...... and Leoli's words naturally surprised those who heard it, and Xiaojie even let out a surprised cry.
Before Xiaojie could express his surprise, a strange sound sounded, and everyone looked at the source ......of the sound.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I haven't eaten in a while, and I've spent all my travel expenses......" Leoli said, clutching his stomach and looking embarrassed.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's time for us to eat, anyway, there is still time, if you don't mind, let's eat together." Li Jianxing said with a smile. At this point, everyone burst out laughing, and in an instant, the distance between several people narrowed.
So the four of them chose to eat at a restaurant next to the pier, and the payment was naturally Billy, but Li Jianxing himself basically had no money.
After eating, Leoli and Xiaojie both covered their filled stomachs and followed behind Li Jianxing and Billy with a satisfied face, Leoli's meal was not small, although Xiaojie had just eaten more than an hour ago, but he also ate a lot when he saw Leoli gobbling up, Billy and Li Jianxing tasted it lightly, after all, they had just eaten, and the two of them just ate a few fruits.
However, at the time of checkout, what Li Jianxing didn't expect was that the manager of this store turned out to be a patient treated by Li Jianxing, and the store manager greeted Li Jianxing warmly, and exempted Li Jianxing from the cost of this meal. Seeing that the store manager was so enthusiastic, Li Jianxing did not refuse, but Li Jianxing blessed the store manager with a blessing before leaving, which could make the store manager energetic and refreshed in the past few days, and after feeling the changes in his body, the store manager treated Li Jianxing more enthusiastically.
Because there was a little delay in eating, the boat lifted anchor and set off shortly after the four of them got on the boat together. There were a lot of people on the dock to see off Li Jianxing and Xiaojie, they all came here from Whale Island, but Li Jianxing didn't find Mitte among these people, she should be hiding aside, and sure enough, Li Jianxing saw Mitte watching this side from a tree farther away.
Li Jianxing and Xiao Jie both stood at the stern of the boat and waved to those who saw them off, and at this time Xiao Jie shouted loudly: "I will definitely become the world's No. 1 hunter, and I will come back when I become the world's No. 1 hunter!" ”
Hearing such childish words, Li Jianxing couldn't help but touch Xiaojie's head and smiled: "Hehe, it's not so easy to become the world's No. 1 hunter, you still need to learn a lot, but you have to work hard." ”
"Yes!" Xiaojie said with a smile. Xiaojie is a very cheerful and sunny child, who seems to be happy at any time, and having him by his side over the years has also made Li Jianxing feel a lot of joy in addition to his boring practice, so Li Jianxing also likes Xiaojie very much.
Over the years, Xiaojie has also followed Li Jianxing to do some physical exercises, because considering his young age, Li Jianxing's training of Xiaojie is very simple, but the talent shown by Xiaojie also surprised Li Jianxing. With just a simple physical exercise, his progress could even be compared to Li Jianxing, who had a complete cultivation method and the assistance of light element crystallization.
Li Jianxing can take Xiao Jie's words as similar to a child's ignorance of the world, but in the eyes of many people on the ship, this is simply a provocation, hearing Xiao Jie say that he wants to become the world's number one hunter, many people on the ship feel that Xiao Jie's tone is too big, plus Xiao Jie is still a twelve-year-old child, they have a contempt for Xiao Jie invisibly, if it weren't for the fact that Li Jianxing exuding a heavy power next to Xiao Jie, maybe someone who has impulsiveness will come up and teach Xiao Jie a little lesson.
Even so, someone next to him couldn't help but say fiercely: "The world's number one hunter? Hum! We've also been underestimated, the hunter exam, every year there are millions of talented people around the world to participate, but only a handful of people can be selected, this is not something that can be easily spoken, little ghost. Speaking of which, many people stared at Xiaojie fiercely, as if they had been insulted.
And at this time, Li Jianxing suddenly stared at the person who spoke, and said, "Hmph, do you still think you are good?" Don't insult the four words of high skill! ”
Li Jianxing knew that he would never be able to retreat in the face of the other party's provocation, otherwise these guys would definitely bite like hungry wolves, fighting was not forbidden on the ship, and even the captain and crew had intentional or unintentional connivance, Li Jianxing also saw a person thrown into the sea just now, as long as these people did not disturb the crew's work, the captain would not pay attention to it at all.
The people here are all going to take the hunter exam, it can be said that everyone is a competitor to each other, and once Li Jianxing shows weakness, these people around him definitely don't mind taking the opportunity to eliminate Li Jianxing and a few people here.
Listening to Li Jianxing's words, the man jumped up suddenly, held the dagger in his hand and rushed towards Li Jianxing, Billy wanted to make a move, but was stopped by Li Jianxing with a gesture, Li Jianxing looked indifferently at the person rushed to his face, and then the people around just saw an afterimage flashing in front of Li Jianxing, and followed the guy and flew out of the deck and fell into the sea.
Fortunately, this place is not far from the shore, and Li Jianxing has not used too much strength, so that the guy can have the strength to swim back to the shore. The other people on the boat watched Li Jianxing withdraw his fist, and all of them looked at Li Jianxing differently.
With just one move, they already knew that Li Jianxing and them were no longer at the same level at all, and that person was as ridiculous as an ant provoking an elephant.
