Chapter 55: The Beggar's Self-Realization

Zhixian is a county seat located on the border of Shannan Province in China, but because its geographical location is at the border of Shannan Province, Qingzhou Province and Jiangnan Province, it has become an important transportation hub between the three provinces.

Convenient transportation has brought rapid development to it, and the planning and construction of the county town is not far from the general second- and third-tier cities, and there are signs of withdrawing from the county city in recent years.

At this time, a ragged and unkempt man walked beside the road out of the city in Zhixian County with a cat with black and white lines in his arms.

Because this highway is connected to the highway, and the expansion of the county seat also happens to extend here, so there are still acres of farmland on both sides of this place, and one or two farmers walk through it.

There weren't many pedestrians on either side of the road, but there were quite a few cars whizzing along the road, but even one or two pedestrians avoided the man when they saw him, as if they were afraid that the man would come and ask them for change.

The man was Chen Qi, who had just walked out of the mountains, and he was not fast along the way, so it was already the third day at this time, and he had just come out of the mountains and he was embarrassed like a beggar at this time.

Chen Qi took a deep breath, and the exhaust fume of the car mixed with the smell of sand and dust poured into his nose.

Although it is not comparable to the fragrance of plants and trees in the mountains, it also has a unique atmosphere of human society, familiar and warm, which makes Chen Qi, who has been in the mountains for more than half a month, feel particularly cordial.

After all, he has lived in such a society for twenty-two years.

It may be that a person has been in the mountains for a long time, so Chen Qi saw the disgusting eyes of those others, not only did he not mind, but also deliberately showed a smile that he thought was kind.

However, his smile was supported by his dirty clothes, and the feeling that it was a beggar's cheekiness before begging, for fear that he would stick it in the next second, so when passers-by saw Chen Qi's smiling face, they walked faster.

Chen Qi subconsciously touched his face, is he so terrible......

He took out his phone, which was completely out of battery, from his backpack and took a picture of his face, which was messy, and his hair was unkempt and almost solidified.

And his clothes and pants have been devastated in the mountains for more than half a month, especially the pants, which have also suffered from Chen Qi's demon beast form before, and it is not easy to cover the vital point now.

From the outside, he is no different from a beggar in every aspect except that his soul is not a beggar, and it is impossible for ordinary people to see through a person's soul.

Therefore, Chen Qi has to admit that he is a beggar now......

After looking around, there was obviously no place for him to clean, Chen Qi regretted a little, he should take a bath in the mountains and clean up before coming out.

Chen Qi was quite dissatisfied with his image at this time, he had never been so embarrassed when he was so big, and he stroked the stupid white head in his arms vigorously.

Silly Bai came to human society for the first time, and was curious about everything, the kind of square stones in the distance of the iron box that could run on the road, were things it had never seen before.

Especially the tender meat that walks unsuspectingly on the road......

If it hadn't understood that those meats were the same kind as Chen Qi, Silly Bai would have wanted to grab two of them and let Chen Qi roast them for it to taste.

So Silly Bai thought about it in his heart, lying in your arms in the morning, staring at one or two pedestrians on the side of the street, with a green light in his eyes, and a string of saliva slowly flowing from the corners of his mouth.

At this time, its head was stroked by Chen Qi for a while, and I thought that Chen Qi was angry when he felt its thoughts, so he immediately wiped the saliva from the corners of his mouth with his little paws, and threw his previous thoughts out of his head, pretending to be a good cat.

Although it didn't know what the cat Chen Qi was talking about, in short, it was just right to look pitiful, just like the expressions of the rabbits who were shocked by its demonic spirit......

found that his master seemed to like his expression very much, so Silly Bai had already used this expression perfectly at this time, and immediately dragged it out as a talisman when something was wrong.

However, Chen Qi didn't make much trouble with it at this time, just rubbed it on the head a few times, and then walked along the highway towards the urban area of Zhixian County.

Chen Qi planned to go to the city to change his outfit first, he was not really a beggar, but he couldn't stand the eyes of others who treated him as a beggar.

As Chen Qi walked into the county seat, there were gradually more people on the road, but passers-by still avoided him from a distance, and occasionally two children showed curious eyes to him and were immediately dragged away by his parents.

Fortunately, Zhixian is not far from Qingzhou Province, and the language is not too different from Qingzhou Province, and Chen Qi can understand it.

Chen Qi walked very fast, only an hour or two into the urban area of Zhixian.

Just when he was about to choose a random clothing store to buy a dress first, he suddenly remembered that he was now penniless, and his mobile phone was long dead......

Under the vigilant gaze of the clerk, Chen Qi withdrew half of the foot that had already stepped into the store, smiled at it embarrassedly, and turned around and left in embarrassment.

When he left, the clerk breathed a sigh of relief, apparently afraid that the beggar would come into the shop and beg with them.

Chen Qi turned around and walked into a no-man's corner of the dilapidated community next to him, leaning against the wall and feeling a little big, and secretly scolded himself in his heart for being stupid in the mountains, why did he forget that everything in human society requires money?

He had planned to buy a train ticket here and go home first, because he didn't know if he would have time to go home after training at the Abilities Party School.

But now it seems that he can't afford even a meal in the city......

You can't go back into the mountains...... Do you really want to beg?

"Brother, brother. At this time, a voice sounded in Chen Qi's ears.

Chen Qi turned his head to look and found a man who looked like him standing in the corner, looking straight at him, but this man was more like a beggar than Chen Qi because he was pulling a tattered quilt in his hand.

Obviously, this is a real beggar.

"You're calling me?"

Chen Qi stretched out his hand and pointed to his face.

"Don't call you, who else do you call!

The beggar walked in scolding, squeezed Chen Qi out, spread the quilt in the corner, lay it upright, then rose to a lazy waist, moaned comfortably, and then closed his eyes, as if he was going to sleep like this.

Chen Qi looked at all this in a daze, until the beggar lay down for a long time he was still in a sluggish state, beggar, are they all so casual?

Perhaps sensing that Chen Qi hadn't left yet, the beggar looked at Chen Qi with half-squinted eyes, and suddenly said, "Brother, I think you're new here!"

Chen Qi blinked, and subconsciously said, "How do you know ......?"

The beggar rolled over and got up, triumphantly stretched out his finger and pointed to his eyes, and said:

"Brother! Brother, there are a lot of people who have seen these eyes! You look like a chick at first glance, I thought you still wanted to go to that store and ask for money. ”

"No, I'm not ......," Chen Qi interrupted as he tried to explain that he wasn't actually a beggar.

But the beggar didn't give him a chance to explain, and interrupted Chen Qi's words with a wave of his hand and continued:

"Brother understands! That's how they all came, and they were a little embarrassed at first, and you don't want to think about it, how can that kind of place give you money! They all make money, and you still want to go there, you don't have the consciousness of a beggar at all. ”

Chen Qi was a little speechless, he didn't know what to say, you must know that he didn't plan to ask for money at all!

He knew that he had nothing to say to the two beggars, so he prepared to turn and leave.

But just as Chen Qi was about to leave, a group of people walked out of a building next to Chen Qi with passion, and then turned into a hidden store behind the community.

Those people gave Chen Qi the feeling of being like a group of fanatics, subconsciously furrowed his eyebrows, turned his head sideways, and looked over there a few more times.

The beggar also saw Chen Qi's movements, and said unhurriedly:

"A group of pyramid schemers are in a meeting!"

"Pyramid schemes, no one cares?" Chen Qi was not in a hurry to leave, turned to the beggar and asked, this was the first time he had seen a pyramid scheme gang.

"These people have been brainwashed! When they find out that the police are coming, they run away, and then they start again in another place, and they can't catch them cleanly. The beggar buckled a handful of his shoes and said casually.

"You beggar know a lot...... Chen Qi muttered after hearing this.

"Of course! There is no brother in this county, I don't know! Where there are fights, where there are dead, I know better than those policemen. The beggar said triumphantly, but his posture looked like bragging.

Chen Qi scoffed at his words and said disdainfully: "You know so much, why are you still a beggar? Besides, I see that you are also healthy, even if you go to work, you can support yourself!"

After hearing this, the beggar glanced at Chen Qi, looked at the sky, and said meaningfully:

"I can't work in this life! I can't do business, so I have to be a beggar." ”

The corners of Chen Qi's mouth twitched, how did he feel that this was so familiar?

"Oh, go, go, go, I'm going to sleep, don't stand there in the sun. ”

But before Chen Qi could remember, the beggar turned over and prepared to sleep, and ordered Chen Qi to be evicted.

Chen Qi was a little speechless, how could this beggar feel so skinny! Doesn't he have a little psychological burden when he is a beggar? However, seeing that the other party does not intend to take care of himself, he does not continue to be bored with himself.

Turning around and walking out of this corner, he planned to find a place to borrow a charger to charge the phone first, because his charger was still in the student dormitory.

In this information-based society, as long as the mobile phone has power, it can be paid.

But soon Chen Qi found out that his appearance, not to mention finding someone to borrow a charger, couldn't even enter the store, and when he was going to talk to someone, that person avoided it from afar.

It's as if he's trying to cheat them out of money.

So when Chen Qi slipped down the street until it was getting dark, he didn't find anyone willing to borrow a charger to charge him.

Chen Qi sat dejectedly on a chair in a park in the county town, scratching the wood on the side, and screaming at Chen Qi through the contract mark.

This is one of the few human words that Silly Bai has learned now, but this is the most mature word it has used at this time.

Chen Qi didn't pay attention to it, because it had been called like this for an afternoon, and when Chen Qi entered the county seat with it, it was attracted by the aroma of all kinds of food.
