Chapter Five: Blessings and Misfortunes (Part II)
"Ahem, I really can't imagine that Xinyue is actually looking for him as a foreign aid!"
Chen Xiang clenched his fists and coughed to hide his shock. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
His mood was very complicated at the moment, as he said, he really didn't expect Feng Xinyue to find this guy.
Ray Lo!
At the mention of this name, Chen Xiang felt the urge to grit his teeth.
He was born in a martial arts family, and he has the blood of the median 'Juyuan', and since he entered the Great Wind Martial Academy, he has been a leader among his peers.
Chen Xiang thought that he could always be the leader, and easily obtained the qualification to participate in the 'Qing Mansion Election Apprentice', who would have thought that he had been enrolled in school for less than a year, and was easily beaten into a dog in the year-end assessment.
That person is the boy who is busy on the stall, Lei Luo!
In the past few years, Chen Xiang has practiced almost every day until the early hours of the morning, just to wash away the shame of the year-end assessment of the new year.
However, that guy nicknamed 'Martial Maniac' worked even harder than him, and he practiced almost all the time!
It's okay to have perseverance and no talent, but although this guy's 'metal perception' bloodline is only lower, he can always overpower him in cultivation speed for some reason.
If it weren't for Lei Luo's initiative to drop out of school last year, Chen Xiang really didn't know if he could continue to insist on practicing in the martial arts academy.
Gao Chao was also surprised, he knew that Lei Luo was the most influential figure in the Martial Arts Academy in the past few years.
It's just that he has been silent since he dropped out of school a year ago, how did Feng Xinyue know that he set up a stall here?
Could it be that it is true that the two people who were rumored in the martial arts academy had a lot of friendship at the beginning?
Gao Chao was inexplicably a little jealous, and said indifferently: "I really didn't expect that the foreign aid you are looking for in Xinyue will actually be Lei Luo!"
"Really speaking, when this martial madman was discharged from the hospital, he had already cultivated to the realm of the four veins, and a year ago, I am afraid that Chen Xiang and I were not his opponents!"
Feng Xinyue smiled lightly, and her beautiful eyes were quite proud: "In terms of hard cultivation, this guy is indeed unmatched in the Martial Academy!"
Chen Xiang said sourly: "One year is enough to change a lot of things!"
Feng Xinyue raised her eyebrows, as if Chen Xiang's words made her feel displeased.
Gao Chao watched coldly from the sidelines, and his heart was stunned, but he said in his mouth: "Don't talk about martial arts, just resolutely quit school to pay off his father's debts, Lei Luo is extremely admirable!"
You must know that although his father Lei Yuanshan's gamble with all his family wealth was lost and lost half his life, those creditors admired him as a person and had already said that he would cancel his debts. ”
"In this case, if you are an ordinary person, you are afraid that you will accept it after half pushing! Who knows that Lei Luo is arrogant, takes the initiative to bear all the debts, gives up martial arts and enters Yunji to become a weapon scar appraiser! By the way, how could he set up a stall here?"
As if he had just reacted, Gao Chao's white face was full of surprise.
Chen Xiang said disdainfully: "What else can be the reason? His metal perception bloodline grade is too low, and he can only be regarded as the lowest-level entry-level appraiser in Yunji, and that salary is probably not enough for him to replenish his lost blood qi! At the beginning, he was ashamed to bear his father's debts, and he couldn't break his word and get fat, and setting up a stall here was also an income!"
Chen Xiang's words were harsh, but Gao Chao's heart became more and more happy.
Sure enough, he saw that Feng Xinyue's brows were already furrowed.
With a roll of his eyes, Gao Chao added fuel and vinegar: "After all, classmates, Chen Xiang, why did you say that Lei Luo was so unbearable!"
Chen Xiang sneered: "I'm just telling the truth, Lei Luo hasn't practiced for a whole year, who knows if he can still maintain the realm of the four veins." What's more, the appraiser consumes his own blood qi the most, I'm afraid that he has already fallen to the third vein!"
He said to himself, not noticing that Feng Xinyue's little face had some signs of blackening.
Seeing this, Gao Chao's heart blossomed.
In the past few years, he has tried his best to pursue Feng Xinyue, and has always regarded Chen Xiang as a rival in love, and now he is very happy to see that he has aroused Feng Xinyue's disgust.
However, at this time, it can't be stimulated anymore, otherwise Feng Xinyue will leave the two of them in a rage, and she will inevitably suffer from the pond fish.
Gao Chao looked up at Lei Luo, who was busy in front of the stall, this once high-spirited guy had completely reduced to a profit-seeking villain at this time.
Just looking at his nodding and bowing appearance, Gao Chao can be sure that Feng Xinyue's trip will not be satisfactory.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "No matter what, since you have met, you should come forward and say hello! You can buy a few masks, which can be regarded as a cheer for this former classmate!"
Chen Xiang was about to object, but Feng Xinyue's face improved slightly and said, "Gao Chao is right!"
She walked to the stall first, but she didn't see the superb smug smile behind her and Chen Xiang's gloomy face.
Lei Luo didn't notice it at all, and the three classmates not far away stared at him for a long time.
As the night deepened, the black market grew more crowded, and six or seven customers had gathered in front of the stalls to buy masks.
Lei Luo had a smile on his face, but he calculated tonight's income in his heart.
In less than two hours, he had sold thirty-two masks, which meant that he had already received sixteen taels of silver.
The cost of a mask is about ten cents, and after removing the weight of the leaves, nine taels of silver have already fallen into the bag.
And after dark, it is the real trading time of the black market, and his income will only increase.
By the way, it seems that the labor cost of removing the leaves to remake the mask should also be removed.
But what is the labor cost?
A profiteer's smile jumped in Lei Luo's eyes.
The cooperation with Ye Zizhong can increase his income by eighty taels of silver every month, which does not seem to be much, but he can also save a thousand taels in a year.
This money can already pay off the debts of the last family.
He worked harder and harder, but he didn't see three more boys and girls in front of the stall.
"How much is a mask? Bring me ten!"
The energetic girl's voice woke up Lei Luo, who was immersed in joy.
He looked up suddenly, and saw the flower-like face that had once been so familiar.
The eyebrows are like willow leaves, and the beautiful eyes are like a dream.
Especially when you laugh, it is like a hundred flowers blooming, and it is addictive.
Feng Xinyue!
Lei Luo was stunned, how did she know that she was setting up a stall here?
"Was it a surprise to see me, a surprise?"
Feng Xinyue stared at Lei Luo, who showed a stunned expression, her beautiful eyes smiling.
Indeed unexpected, as for surprises...... Hehe!
Lei Luo secretly scolded himself, but he made a happy expression on his face: "What a coincidence!
The qualified peddler watched and listened to all directions, and after a moment of shock, he suddenly found that one left and one right were as superb as the Dharma Protector King Kong and Chen Xiang.
This combination did not surprise him, as early as when he was in the Martial Academy, he had heard about the two of them entangled Feng Xinyue.
However, at that time, he was dedicated to cultivation, and Chen Xiang was a defeated general, so he disdained to pay attention to these ups and downs.
Now seeing the three of them standing together, the white-clothed Shengxue is full of heroism, but it is inevitable that he is a little sad.
If you don't drop out of school......
The eyes of his father Lei Yuanshan appeared in his heart again, and Lei Luo shook his head silently.
"It's indeed a coincidence that the young genius of the famous martial arts academy in the past has actually fallen into the situation of setting up stalls on the black market!"
Chen Xiang recalled the tragic days when he was abused as a dog, and couldn't help but have a little more ridicule in his words: "Oh, I remember, the lower 'metal perception' bloodline can certainly become an appraiser, but the essence blood consumed in each laboratory is quite amazing, with your pitiful salary in Yunji, I'm afraid it won't be enough to supplement the consumption!"
"How about this, as long as you open your mouth and call me Master Chen, I will have all the in this stall!"
"Chen Xiang!"
Feng Xinyue didn't expect his words to be so mean, and her pretty face suddenly turned pink with anger.
Although Gao Chao looked at Lei Luo also unpleasantly, he naturally did not echo Chen Xiang at this time, and said in a deep voice: "Chen Xiang, I said before, everyone is always in the same class, even if there is a conflict, it has passed, why are you so stingy!"
Without giving Chen Xiang a chance to refute, he took out a silver ticket from his arms and handed it to Lei Luo, and said apologetically: "Lei Luo, don't blame Chen Xiang for being straightforward, to be honest, I still admire what happened to you! I didn't expect you to set up a stall here before, otherwise I would have prepared some more silver taels! You can use this money first, and I will send someone to send you some more when I go back!"
Under the dim oil lamp, the silver ticket has a big 'five' character written on it, five taels of silver!
The calm gaze swept over Chen Xiang, who was pale, and Feng Xinyue, who was pink, and finally landed on Gao Chao's face that seemed sympathetic but was actually contemptuous.
Lei Luo suddenly smiled lightly, he took the silver ticket, put it in his pocket casually, and picked out ten masks from the stall: "Xinyue asked for ten masks just now, I hesitate that everyone is so familiar, I'm embarrassed to accept money." But since you insist on paying for it, how can I bear to brush off your kindness?"
A thick stack of masks was stuffed into the stunned Gao Chao's arms, and Lei Luo reminded lightly: "It's not early, if you buy something, don't delay here!"
Gao Chao never thought that this would be the result, since he came to the black market, he naturally brought enough money.
deliberately took out five taels of silver to Lei Luo, not because he had no money, but because he was humiliating him.
As for what nonsense to say about sending some back, it was purely for fear that Feng Xinyue would see it.
Unexpectedly, Lei Luo reacted so quickly, and as soon as the ten masks were shot, not only did he lose his humiliating thoughts, but also blocked him from having nothing to say.
It's just, what are you doing with so much rags yourself?
Looking at the stack of masks in his arms, Gao Chao threw it, and he didn't throw it, it was very heartbroken.
At this time, Feng Xinyue had already reacted, and before she could say her purpose, Lei Luo was already planning to send off the guests.
She glared at Chen Xiang angrily, and said with a straight face: "Lei Luo, I want to invite you to participate in the trial in three days!"
"Trials?"
Lei Luo was slightly stunned, and then came to his senses: "You plan to find me as a foreign aid?"
Chen Xiang sneered: "I'm afraid you don't have the ability!"
Lei Luo glanced at him and ignored it as air.
Chen Xiangqi's face turned dark, but when he saw Feng Xinyue's annoyance, he could only shut up.
Feng Xinyue was extremely annoyed with Chen Xiang at the moment, but the matter was important, so she made up her mind not to pay attention to Chen Xiang after tonight, and nodded to Lei Luo seriously: "That's true!"
"Impossible!"
Relo refused without hesitation.
Feng Xinyue was stunned by his resolute attitude, and after a while, she said with a little resentment: "I've been looking for you this year, if I hadn't occasionally learned that you were here from Ye Zizhong's mouth, I wouldn't have made a special trip here." ”
It turned out to be Ye Zizhong's bastard!
Lei Luo has always wondered why the three of them knew that they were setting up a stall here, he didn't believe in any chance encounters, and when he heard Feng Xinyue say this, he couldn't help but be surprised.
Since leaving the martial arts academy, he has completely cut off contact with the classmates he once knew, and even if he encounters occasionally, he tries to avoid it.
In addition, the appraiser did not have to show his face, even though these people knew that he was working there, it was difficult for them to catch his whereabouts.
Who would have thought that Ye Zizhong's bastard would sell him backhanded!
Lei Luo secretly wondered how to settle accounts with him, but said coldly: "No matter what, I won't be your foreign aid!"
There was almost no room for maneuver in these words, and Feng Xinyue's pretty face instantly lost its brilliance.
Gao Chao was distressed when he watched from the sidelines, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Fellow classmates, Lei Luo, you don't have to be so ruthless! Don't mention it if you refuse, I know you are very short of money, oh, this is five hundred taels of silver tickets!"
He took out the silver ticket again, but it was no longer five taels, but five hundred taels: "As long as you promise to come down, I will give you another five hundred taels after the trial is over!"
When Lei Luo saw him take out the silver ticket, he was about to throw it back, but when he heard Gao Chao's last words, the coldness on his face disappeared in an instant.
Instead, he smiled: "Gao Chao is right, everyone is in the same class, and they should help each other! Xinyue, I have decided, be your foreign aid!"
Feng Xinyue was dumbfounded, and her little face was full of confusion.
Chen Xiang muttered disdainfully: "See the money and open your eyes!"
Only Gao Chao, when Lei Luo reached out to take the silver ticket, suddenly retracted his hand and laughed.
His smile was a little gloomy: "It's best if you can agree, it's just, as sincerity, you always have to show some skills and prove that you have the ability to be this foreign aid, right?"
Lei Luo scratched his head: "This year, I almost gave up martial arts, and my cultivation fell to the realm of the three veins, but I am familiar with Yunmeng Daze, but this can't be proven!"
Blow it!
Chen Xiang and Gao Chao sneered together, they had been classmates for several years, but they had never heard that this guy in front of them had entered Yunmeng Daze.
Besides, that place was full of dangers, and even if they entered with their current strength far superior to Lei Luo, they might not be able to get out alive.
The two only thought that Lei Luo was talking nonsense in order to make money, and they became more and more disdainful of him in their hearts.
Even Feng Xinyue couldn't help but wonder if she had found the right person.
Gao Chao also seemed to be stumped, he thought for a moment, and then smiled and said: "In that case, then you can help us choose a few weapons to take advantage of in the black market!
It's really not a difficult task, but in order to crack that iron gall, the bloodline power in his body has already been exhausted!
Lei Luo thought in embarrassment, and his eyes fell on the silver ticket in Gao Chao's hand.
1,000 taels of silver, that's a year's income from his stall!
With this money, my father's debts can be settled a lot!
He hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Deal!"
