"Miss, what are you looking at?" a maid approached and looked into the eyes of the young lady below.

"Hey, what a handsome boy. Miss, are you tempted?" the maid pursed her lips and smiled.

"Xin'er, if you talk nonsense, I will punish you for carrying water every day. ”

"Ah, don't do that, miss, I'm just joking with you. ”

Long Yuan was dancing with strips of wet cloth, and suddenly felt a peeping gaze, turned around to look, and saw two girls standing in the attic not far away.

After experiencing the pursuit of the killer, Long Yuan was extremely sensitive to the gaze of peeping in the dark and did not like it, he moved to the cloth to dry, and his body disappeared as soon as he moved.

The lady in the attic snorted, and when she couldn't find the figure below, she walked away through the window.

At night, Long Yuan was hungry and there was no food in the canteen, so he went to the kitchen to find a few spoiled sweet potatoes, cut off the scars with a woodcutter, cut off the inedible parts, and roasted them on a fire next to the construction site.

Long Yuan also received a lot of wages, but after he learned about Pingyang's family background, he kept these wages, for him money is an external object, but for Pingyang, it is different.

Therefore, Long Yuan didn't go to the city to eat. With Long Yuan's greedy character, even if he is not in the city to eat and spend money after being hungry for so long, he will definitely go outside the city to hunt some prey and catch some mountain treasures to feast on, but the true qi in his body has been disordered a few months ago and seems to be hidden, and now he is a young man with a lot of strength.

This is also the reason why Long Yuan has stopped in Jiecaifang for so long, with his state, if he travels in the mountains and wilderness again, a few hyenas will be enough for him to drink a pot, not to mention that he may meet a killer at any time.

Long Yuan was hidden among the civilians, and it was not easy for the killers of the Kui Wolf Sect to find him. Before the real temperature cultivation is completed, he doesn't want to leave Jiecai Fang for the time being.

"There are so many injustices and pitiful things in this world, you can't help everyone, you are not God, you are just a person. Everyone has their own life and life trajectory, in a word, what kind of person has what kind of life, you can't interfere. ”

Long Yuan looked at the rising fire and remembered what Pingyang had said to him. He used to help people in the dye vat department, but then he stopped helping, and many people were not happy, and their attitude towards him became cold. That was the first time that Long Yuan had experienced what human affection was in the world. Since then, he has gradually understood that he is only a human being, and that he cannot control many things in this world, and that people are unpredictable. Some of the workers he had helped also came to him in order to curry favor with Niu Er.

However, Pingyang's eldest brother Long Yuan felt that he had to help, and he still knew who was good to him. Long Yuan took out the money bag in his arms, which was quite weighty.

"I hope that these coins will enable Brother Binh Duong to find a good man and cure his wife and daughter's illness. Earlier, let him go back to reunite with his family. Long Yuan said. He was very happy to meet Pingyang in Jiecaifang, Pingyang taught him many truths and took great care of him. However, Binh Duong's family background is not very good, and his wife and daughter are sick, so Binh Duong has been working outside for many years and rarely can reunite with his family.

"Miss, these two buckets of rice are so heavy. There were also two roast chickens, exhausted to death. The maid carried a bucket of rice in one hand and struggled to follow the young lady.

"Steward Wang had a lot of food before his death, these were specially prepared for him, if you can't take it, I don't care if he comes to you at night. "The young lady deliberately scared the maid, but she scared the maid a lot.

"Miss...... That...... There's ghost fire there. ”

"Huh?" As the two of them passed by the construction site, they looked at the edge of the construction site in the distance, and there was indeed a fire beating, like a bewitching one.

"There seems to be someone there, go, go and have a look. The young lady said.

When the two approached, they found a teenager sitting by the fire.

It was Long Yuan.

When Long Yuan saw the two of them coming, he didn't react. He has been angry with Niu Er a lot these days, but he has endured it all. But Niu Er saw that Long Yuan didn't say a word, but stumbled Pingyang all day long, which really angered Long Yuan, and he couldn't help but be stopped by Pingyang several times.

During this time, he was already in a bad mood, and his personality gradually became a little ruthless. In addition, when studying the Void Dancing Technique, something went wrong, and the breath that melted into the body could not flow in the body, making it difficult to maintain its circulation. As a result, Long Yuan could not use the breath in the Qi Sea, as soon as the Qi in the Qi Sea entered the body, it would be mixed with the Qi that was fused into the body, and eventually returned to the Qi Sea, causing Long Yuan's Qi refining practice to stop for a short time.

So when Long Yuan was fine, he found a place where no one was to practice physical arts and vent the depression in his heart. Now he knew someone was coming, but he didn't bother to bother.

The young lady in the blue dress saw Long Yuan roasting sweet potatoes with a few completely spoiled sweet potatoes beside her, frowned slightly, and said in her heart: "How can this person eat bad food." ”

"Xin'er, give him the food you are carrying. The young lady said.

"Miss, isn't this for the dead?" asked the maid named Xin'er.

"Can a dead man eat what a living man eats?"

"Oh. Xin'er Nunu mouthed, approached Long Yuan with a heavy lunch box, and placed it beside Long Yuan.

"My lady gave you food. Xin'er said to Long Yuan. Then she went back to Miss.

"Let's go. The young lady said.

"Oh. ”

Long Yuan threw the sweet potato in his hand aside and opened the food box, which contained two roasted golden roast chickens. The other two wooden barrels contained fragrant and hot rice.

Seeing the food in front of him, Long Yuan felt even more hungry in his stomach, he grabbed the roast chicken in one hand and the rice spoon in the other, and feasted on it, and the food box and wooden barrel in front of him were empty for a long time.

The feeling of eating a full meal for the first time in months made Long Yuan feel indescribably comfortable, and his whole body felt full of strength. During this period of time in Jiecaifang, Long Yuan did not have a quarter of the amount of each meal, although this amount did not affect Long Yuan's normal survival, but he would always be hungry and panicked at the meal.

After eating his fill, Long Yuan suddenly found that the aura that had been melted into his body by cultivating the Void Dance Technique automatically began to circulate.

"Huh?"

Long Yuan was stunned for a while, and said in his heart: "Could it be that the previous cultivation of the Void Dance Technique has not made progress because he has not eaten enough?" For such a reason, Long Yuan also felt a little crying and laughing.

The feeling of fullness in his belly, coupled with the progress in the cultivation of the Void Dance Technique, made Long Yuan's mood slightly better.

"If these breaths melted into the body are recuperated for more than a month, you can once again mobilize the breath in the sea of qi to carry out the cultivation of qi refining. At that time, Brother Pingyang was almost gone, and I could continue to look for the "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas". The breath of the sea of qi can't be used, so let's stay here for the time being. With these plans in mind, Long Yuan extinguished the fire, cleaned it up, and went back to rest.

One day, when several workers were in a sea camp again, one of them said: "Do you know that the leader of the horse thieves in the mountains outside the city wants to buy the picture of Magpie Mountain in our Jiecaifang." ”

"Isn't the Queshan Diagram the treasure of our workshop?" said an older worker, "how can you sell it?" ”

"What's the Queshan Diagram?"

"I don't know, I also listen to other people. ”

Long Yuan heard it clearly on the side, and said in his heart: "There is a picture of Magpie Mountain in the Jiecai Fang, is it related to the "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas"? Could it be that this horse thief also wants to fight the idea of "Treasure Book of Mountains and Seas"?"

There was a suspicion in his heart, and Long Yuan kept an eye on it. When that group of workers were talking nonsense, Long Yuan's ears were propped up, filtering the useful and useless idle chatter from his ears.

Long Yuan stayed in Jiecai Fang for another month, and after learning the reason why he couldn't make progress in practicing the Dancing Void Technique, he also went to other places to buy some food after dinner, so the progress of cultivating True Qi was much faster than before. Long Yuan handed over the wages he had saved to Pingyang, so that he could reunite with his family earlier.

After finishing their work, Pingyang and Long Yuan rested at their residence.

"Long Yuan, I want to quit my job at Jiecaifang before the Mid-Autumn Festival and go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival, if you don't have a place to go during the Mid-Autumn Festival, go to my house. Pingyang said as he cleaned up his salute.

"Brother Pingyang, have you finished your long-term work?"

"It was supposed to be another month, but now I can add a lot of wages every month, and I have some gold coins in my hand, and you have added a lot of money to me, I can redeem a month, and go back early." ”

Long Yuan nodded, thinking that Brother Pingyang's early departure had more or less something to do with that Niu Er, he was really a little depressed, thinking that he was about to leave anyway, so it was better to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with Brother Pingyang's family.

Thinking of this, Long Yuan said, "Okay, I don't want to be separated from Brother Pingyang so early." Is it too late for my eldest brother to go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival?"

"Today is thirteen, and we won't enter the city when we come back tomorrow, otherwise we will have to go back out of the city. If you travel overnight, you will be able to get home in the evening of about 15 days. I haven't been back in years. Pingyang sighed.

In previous years, Binh Duong never returned home, and some time he worked part-time in the city, even at the end of the year. Long Yuan and Pingyang never asked each other about their background, which is also a kind of mutual respect, but after getting acquainted with each other, they will occasionally reveal some when they talk.

"This purchase is more important, and Madame asked Miss to accompany her. I told the foreman that you have great strength, and asked him to arrange for you to go too. You also pack your bags, and you won't be back tomorrow, and I'll go to the foreman in the evening to talk about it and settle the wages. ”

"Good. Long Yuan replied.

In the evening, Long Yuan went to the street to buy some items, as soon as he thought of going out of the city, he thought of roasting pheasants, and now that the true qi in Long Yuan's body can flow again, he had to catch a few pheasants to comfort and comfort his stomach, so he also collected a few bottles of condiments in the city.

On the same day, Jiecaifang and his party went to the neighboring city to buy goods, and they had rushed back at dusk. When there were about fifty miles left on the return journey, the group rested in place.

"A little further on, we can be separated from these carriages and horses. Binh Duong Road.

Long Yuan nodded and said, "Brother Pingyang, while I can't go now, I'm going to hunt some prey, and it's almost night after separating from these people, and I can't find anything to eat all over the mountains." ”

"Well, go ahead, be careful. ”

Long Yuan left the carriage and entered the mountains and forests. After a short time, he grabbed four wild pheasants in his hands, and because he couldn't use the breath of the sea of qi excessively, he didn't have the qi, so the harvest was less.
