Knock knock knock...... Knock knock knock......

There was a slow and rhythmic knock on the door, and because the door was inserted by Chen Feng inside, no one outside could enter at all.

Chen Feng, who was sitting cross-legged, kept flashing a slight light on his forehead and eyebrows, and the light was so small that it was like the eye of a needle.

The constant knocking sound in his ears dragged Chen Feng back from the strange dark world, his spirit trembled, and his soul returned to the real world again. Suddenly, I only felt dizzy, stiff and weak, as if I had been fighting on the battlefield for a long time.

"It's coming. ”

With a sigh of harmony, Chen Feng walked to the door, stretching his muscles and bones simply as he walked, and there was a crackling sound from time to time at the bones.

Buckle the door and plug it in, opening the door, and the gentle and dazzling sunlight poured in, making Chen Feng unable to see what was in front of him clearly for a while, so he hurriedly blocked the light with his hand and took two steps back.

"Guest officer...... You...... Are you alright?"

There was a yellow-faced and skinny young man standing at the door, it was the same little guy who received Chen Feng when he first came. At this moment, the little guy is holding a box of food in his hand, and he is slowly steaming out.

"Of course. ”

Chen Feng nodded, pulled a chair and sat down, and at the same time motioned for the young man to enter the door, and said with a smile: "Your service here is really thoughtful, I didn't even order food, so you sent it over." ”

The young man was stunned when he heard this, and immediately put the lunch box on the table, and said with some trembling words: "Guest officer...... It's not that we serve well, it's just that ...... You haven't been out for ten days since you entered our inn, and I'm afraid you'll be hungry...... Starve to death ......"

......

This time it was Chen Feng's turn to be stunned, he had spent ten days cultivating the Gathering Spirit Tomb, why did he feel like it was just one night?

If it was really ten days, then it was no wonder that the young man was worried, if he had changed to another inn, someone might have broken into the door to see if he was dead.

"Guest, you must be a martial artist, right? You can only do it when you are in retreat without eating or drinking for such a long time. ”

Although the young man was young, his thoughts turned quickly, and he usually came into contact with many people, and he soon thought of Chen Feng's identity. The eyes of the little Danfeng were full of admiration, for ordinary people of their age, it was really glorious and wonderful to be able to become a martial artist.

Chen Feng didn't hide it, the person in front of him gave him a pretty good feeling, from this little guy's body, Chen Feng seemed to be able to see himself when he was a child, and he was eager to become a hero who flew away from the sky all the time.

Although I only knew the hardships of being a martial artist after experiencing it, that ignorant dream, looking back, is still gratifying.

"What's your name?"

The eyes of heaven are opened, the spirit mound is condensed, Chen Feng at this moment is full of relaxation, this first step, he is considered a success, and the success is very successful, far beyond his previous expectations.

"I don't have a name, I've been a wandering orphan since I was a child, and then I was taken in by this shopkeeper and has been helping here, and the shopkeeper named me Xiaoqi, and everyone else called me that. When it comes to his life experience, Xiao Qi does not have any sentimentality and resentment, his face is very peaceful, it seems that the experience of years of suffering has made him forget hatred, this meaningless thing.

“......”

Chen Feng didn't speak, his fingertips tapped lightly on the tabletop. He was born in Shengyan City, and his father was a general who protected the city, so he had a very dark way to deal with these wandering orphans, beggars, and the old, weak, sick and disabled.

First of all, for these people, the Amethyst Dynasty will not distribute relief money to them, and once these people disturb the order of the city, the city guards will beat or scold them, oppressing them to the extreme.

These oppressed people, in desperation, will apply for help from the labor offices of various cities. The Labour Department will give them "special" assistance according to their ability and age.

This kind of help, in fact, is trafficking.

Like the shopkeeper of this shop, if he privately gives some benefits to the labor office according to the price, he can take in some orphans in the name of a good man and go to help him.

Of course, he still has to pay the orphans every month, but the salary is very low. After working like this for a year or two, his cost will come back, and the few orphans in his hands will continue to work for him with a mentality of repaying his gratitude.

No matter how beautiful the city is, it has its dark side, which Chen Feng understands, but he doesn't tell Xiao Qi, because even if the latter knows, it will only add sadness in vain.

His own fate is in his own hands, and there are some things that cannot be controlled by others, although Chen Feng wants to help him.

"My name is Chen Feng, it's nice to meet you?" Chen Feng stretched out his right hand in a friendly manner as he spoke.

Looking at the man in front of him, who was four or five years older than himself, he actually took the initiative to stretch out his hand to him, and Xiao Qi froze in place. He had been here for nearly ten years, and he had received more than 100 people a day, but no one had ever treated him with such respect. Everyone looked at him with contempt, and everyone felt that he was nothing more than a lowly little fellow, who came when he was called, and went when he was called.

Xiao Qi trembled, slightly clumsily stretched out his slightly dark little hand, and held it tightly with Chen Feng's palm in mid-air. This simple action brought Xiao Qi incomparable warmth and hope.

People are equal.

and its simple truth, but there are a few people who can do it sincerely.

Tears rolled across his cheeks, Xiao Qi's body trembled, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't open his mouth for a while.

Chen Feng stood up, patted the former's immature shoulder, and said in a calm tone: "Man, don't cry, since we know each other, we will be friends in the future." If you have some free time, you can come to me, and if you want to learn martial arts, I can guide you. ”

"Really...... Really?"

Xiao Qi's eyes lit up, and he plucked out his ears in disbelief, and was even a little stunned, is this a dream?

Chen Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "Practicing martial arts is by no means as simple as you think, there is a lot of hardship to suffer, whether you can resist it depends on your own will." ”

"Yes, I can endure hardship, I can endure any kind of hardship...... Hehe, Brother Chen, let's make up our minds, as soon as I am free, you will teach me martial arts. ”

Xiao Qi smirked for a while, took out the food in the lunch box and put it on the table with his hands and feet, and then ran out with the empty lunch box, because he was too excited, he almost fell when he went out, which made Chen Feng laugh.

Looking at the back of Xiao Qi's departure, Chen Feng was a little sad alone, if his fate was the same as his, would he have such an optimistic attitude as the latter?

The answer is unknown, because fate cannot be changed. Chen Feng's spirit mound has been cultivated, and the next thing he has to cultivate is the swallowing pill, as long as he condenses a first-level spirit pill, it will be regarded as officially entering the threshold of the spirit pill master.
