Chapter Twenty-Three: The Joys and Sorrows of the Little People
The Black Curtain City resumed its own liveliness, and as the days passed, Daqin, whether he was sincere or not, finally pinched his nose and recognized the Great Ghost Alliance, which was turned over by the slave, and the two countries began to conduct orderly and large-scale trade. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info has come and gone like this, but it is the shady city that has benefited the most, after all, it has taken advantage of the right time and place and now it has added policies, but it is in the limelight, and it suddenly shines a little.
There is no real city lord in the Black Curtain City, for this city that aims to have several cities in the fairy world, Daqin surprisingly remained silent, go with you, if you want to be really successful, then I don't have to worry about the border. This is not without examples, such as the Great Qin Kingdom, which should now be said to be the southerner end of the Great You Alliance, and there is a small country in the south wind that is connected to it, just because of a Baiyun City, there has been no gunpowder for thousands of years.
The shady city has embarked on the road of ascent in this way, but for these, the low-level people don't care too much, whether it is a wealthy businessman who rivals the country, or a monk who comes and goes, for them, it is still a city with two worlds, and there are tens of thousands of miles in between, which is far less real than a steamed bun. So their most intuitive impression is that there are more people. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, but where there are many people? That is the place where there are many dead people in strife.
For the peripheral members of their own gangs, the general gang chooses to ignore the management method, after all, one of the two is responsible for pulling the tiger's skin, and the other has the right to promote the gang for free, and each has its own benefits.
The monkey is a peripheral member of the LTTE, a leader of the peripheral members of the LTTE that was and should be called now. Don't underestimate this title, you used to be able to eat a few more bites of steamed buns at most, but now it's different. With the rapid increase in the number of residents in Shady City, as well as the backwardness of education, the market for outlying gang members is full of competition.
The monkey stands out in it, the monkey is as its name suggests, the person is thin and sharp-mouthed, and at first glance it belongs to the kind of person who is not a pity even if he is killed by mistake, and he is not a good person at first glance. The success of the monkey's promotion depends on this pair, no, this dexterous brain......
Many days ago, when the monkey was still a low-level person, he secretly collected protection money every day, and he was afraid that he would be seen by others, and he was accidentally charged protection money. The object of the protection money collected by the monkey, that is, three or four beggars, must be careful about this, otherwise they will be caught by the beggar behind the people, not to mention breaking their arms and legs, and beating them is indispensable.
One day, the sun had just set, and the shattered walls of the Black Curtain City were still in full swing...... The hungry monkey grabbed the sticks and went to South Street, targeting the little beggars.
But before he could say the lines, a little beggar who looked a little strange in the lead spoke first: "We're going to call it a day, and the money I asked for today is too small, so I can't give it to you." If you're going to grab it, we'll drag you down with a few people, and one person will call our leader. ”
Then he threw over a gadget, "This is what I found on the construction site the day before yesterday, maybe it was left by a monk, it depends on whether you can eat or not." Then the little beggar walked away haughtily, leaving behind the fragrance of a string of steamed buns, and the stunned monkey, only to think that this strange little beggar was really imposing.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, or if I'm dazzled by hunger, the monkey looks at this thumb-sized thing, and the more I look at it, the more I feel that he doesn't look like an ordinary thing, a crystal clear feeling. Then as soon as he gritted his teeth, he was ready to go to the Bafang Pavilion. After all, it is recognized as a shady store in the entire shady city, and the price is not necessarily affordable, but it must be childish.
As for why the little beggar didn't go? The monkey spat and deserved to be a beggar for the rest of his life. The monkey is ready to meet the judgment along the way, is it in exchange for a huge fortune to embark on the pinnacle of life? When the time comes, he doesn't need so much money, just be a steward in the Bafang Pavilion, the monkey is deeply impressed by his wisdom, and ordinary people don't have this idea, don't have this courage?
Because it was so close to the Bafang Pavilion, the monkey had already arrived before he could think of anything else. The service of the Bafang Pavilion is really not blown, he is dressed so sloppily, and people are still smiling meticulously. Knowing that he has the news of a heavy treasure, the best snacks and the best tea are supplied first, and you can eat and drink as much as you want, not enough, and there are all kinds of things.
Then an old man in a green robe carefully began to examine this heavy treasure. People don't tell themselves politely that it's a piece of rubbish. The monkey sighed a little, feeling that the good life was far away from him again. Packed this waste, turned grief and anger into appetite...... I ate a lot of snacks. Then he was beaten up inexplicably when he went out, and by the way, he broke a hand. The monkey didn't understand, so didn't he eat more?
The monkey collapsed in a pool of blood, and the story did not end. The monkey lay down from the night and the next afternoon, moved, came back to life, and crawled out of some remote alley. When I opened my eyes, it was still the afterglow of the sunset, just like the moment I took the wooden stick yesterday...... But I'm not the same person anymore. The monkey fumbled for the "waste" and finally found it on the ground not far away. Then stomp on it hard......
This "waste" swelled and became bigger. The monkey hesitated and stepped on it again, waste, no, the treasure, it has become bigger again! Is this kind of thing mortal? This is a magic weapon, this is a fairy paraphernalia! The monkey laughed, he groped for a long time, and found that there were three buttons under the treasure, one became larger, one became smaller, and one was unknown...... The monkey's eyes show madness, and wealth is in danger.
He turned a corner and went to the knife boss, who was said to drink human blood every day, and this was the person he could find who was most unlike ordinary people...... He still remembered the expression of the knife boss crying and laughing when he saw this treasure...... It's indelible.
But it's all over, and the distress is over. The monkey is now wearing a big staff suit every day, and he keeps swaying in the north of the city, and when he meets an idler, he has to raise his head in advance, and after others shout a good monkey brother, he snorts heavily, and lowers his head by the way.
But my biggest hobby is staring at my hands...... The broken hand, which was not broken at all, had a crow on it, and it was alive. With a slight handshake, the crow transformed into black qi and wrapped around the palm, and a powerful force was generated. The monkey feels that he is no longer an ordinary person, not to mention a monk, and the name of a half-cultivator is not too much, right?
As for the knife boss's explanation, the monkey took it to heart, didn't he just turn around a lot and come across something similar to it? Just kidding, do you think this is writing a novel, or do you think I'm talking about the main character in the book? So in terms of action, the monkey is still spinning around, looking forward to being able to hold up this dress after eating fat......
Of course, it's not every day that the weather is good, and there are occasional accidents. For example, the person whose head will glow......
