Seventeen: This is very familiar

Since entering the quenching realm, Li Sui'an's physique has become more and more plump.

+1 security gains.

Recently, I have also been fond of strolling.

In this kind of weather, you won't feel too cold even if you wear a single coat.

But he is still used to wrapping himself tightly.

"Shopkeeper Li got up so early, and today is the heavy snow closing the city, I thought there would be no business." Bun Shih Tzu's warm hospitality.

The New Year is approaching, and there is gradually a festive atmosphere in the city.

There are more people hoarding New Year's goods, which sets off those homeless homeless people, and shows that "there are a lot of warmth and coldness in the world, and a few families are happy and a few are sad".

Seeing the beautiful woman smiling at me, she felt refreshed, "Lady of the Yu family, bring me fifteen first...... No, twenty buns, three bowls of porridge. Then count the remaining buns and steamed buns in your shop, and I'll take them all away later. ”

"Ah, do you want it all?"

"It's all there."

"Okay."

Baozi Xi Shi was overjoyed, "It's better to send it to Guishoutang, let my family head help you send it." ”

Li Sui'an waved his hand, "Not this time, let's get ready first." ”

After eating twenty large meat buns in a big gulp, seventy percent full, just right.

Seeing this, Lao Yu immediately put down the work in his hand and followed behind Li Sui'an without saying a word.

Li Sui'an seemed to be walking aimlessly, and unconsciously came to Silk Street, when suddenly two points of green flew out of a laneway, burrowed into his mind and disappeared. Paused in his footsteps, "Lao Yu, is the Xu family's mansion over there?" ”

Lao Yu, who followed silently, was stunned when he heard this, "It seems to be." ”

Li Sui'an looked for it, and sure enough, it was a nearly deserted mansion, with the roof half collapsed, and the walls and eaves were full of scorched marks.

That night was not only a curse by evil spirits, but also a fire?

He didn't see the fire that night.

The seal on the gate had also been torn open and swayed in the wind.

It's only been a long time since the evil scourge has passed, and this place has rotted like this.

Li Sui'an tore off the seal and threw it away.

As everyone knows, the moment he tore off the seal, a man meditating with his eyes closed in a house on the street suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed a knife and jumped onto the roof. turned into an afterimage of the Dao Dao, and quickly rushed towards the Xu family's compound.

The door was pushed open, and the sound woke up the occupants of the room.

The huge ancestral house of the Xu family was all occupied by beggars.

This place has been ravaged by evil spirits, and the others dare not mess with bad luck, but they have cheapened these beggars.

Some powerful beggar leaders, alone occupy a hut. The largest room was full of old and sick beggars, and a bonfire was lit in the middle of the room.

There are also nurseries who lead the whole family to beg, the weather is too cold, and the young ones are crowded into thatched nests next to each other to keep warm.

The gaps in the walls around it are also plugged with thatch to prevent the cold wind from penetrating it. Although it can't prevent the cold, it is a shelter from the wind and rain.

Seeing someone break in, the beggars were very panicked and looked at the two of them with uneasy eyes.

Li Sui'an glanced at it, the youngest skinny was only thigh-high.

"Are you hungry, does anyone want to eat steamed buns?"

He asked, but no one answered.

Nodding at Lao Yu, he motioned for him to open it.

Old Yu Lisuo unwrapped the package, and the big white bun that was still steaming a little hot came into view, and the room was suddenly in a commotion, but he hesitated and didn't dare to step forward.

"If you want to eat, come up and talk to me."

At last a little man who had just passed his knees, unable to bear the hunger, boldly stepped forward.

Li Sui'an saw a pair of bright eyes full of hope, squatted down and said kindly: "Little guy, how many can you eat?" ”

"The fawn can eat three...... Five, no, ten. ”

She made a slap, but it wasn't enough to add another slap.

Li Sui'an smiled, she was still a little girl.

Grabbed two and shoved them into her hands.

With a dirty little face and sparkling eyes, she stared at the bun in her hand that was bigger than her palm, and looked at Li Sui'an again, as if to confirm that this was not a dream. Until the temperature of the palm kept teasing her appetite, she couldn't help it, and immediately stuffed the bun into her mouth and gobbled it up.

"Eat slowly, there's more."

Now the whole dilapidated house was in a commotion, and everyone was swarming.

"All lined up, no robbing. Whoever doesn't line up won't be able to eat steamed buns. After eating, there are still ones, and they are lined up one by one to receive them. Li Sui'an scolded loudly.

The beggars in the other houses also hurried to hear the news.

After a while, the buns were all distributed, and the little man who came up first ate quickly, and when he finished eating, he came up again, and ate four of them, stuffing his little belly full, and burping.

"Thank you, benefactor."

She also knew that she was grateful, and she was about to kneel down and kowtow to Li Sui'an as soon as her legs were bent, but she was picked up by Li Sui'an.

The little man was lifted up in mid-air, like a package.

Her legs kicked restlessly in the air.

Li Sui'an put her on the ground

"Don't kneel, I'm a little kind, but not much. It's almost the New Year, and it's just a whim to send you something to eat. It's just a few buns, it's not worth kneeling. ”

"The grace of a meal is worth kneeling in." The fawn shouted in a crisp voice.

"Well, you're a talker."

His face turned pale: "If I say it's not worth it, it's not worth it." ”

But the fawn was not afraid of him, blinked his eyes, and snickered at him.

Li Sui'an also smiled, "Don't trust strangers easily, if you are sold, you will still help count the money." This is the way of the world, people who live well are more likely to become good people. But in a world where everyone is in danger, there are not many good people, and fate must be controlled by oneself after all. ”

"I ask you, what about the next meal after this full meal? Continue to beg along the street, it snows so much, I'm afraid I'll freeze to death when I go out. ”

There was more hustle and bustle in the crowd.

Most of them are helpless.

Li Sui'an also sighed, "Does anyone know about the Ruyi Fang on Liufeng Street next door?" ”

"I know!"

An older teenager stepped forward.

"I am the shopkeeper of Ruyi Fang, and some guys in the restaurant are coming home from vacation for the New Year, and now there are still a few temporary guys who wash dishes and pick vegetables. The salary is not much, but it can provide you with food, clothing, and shelter from the wind and rain. Wait until the beginning of the next year to disband, do a good job, you can also be left behind, you can also choose to leave by yourself, is anyone willing to go? ”

"Me, I, fawn."

The little man raised his hands high and jumped.

Li Sui'an smiled, "Okay, there is one of you." ”

"And me, my name is Xu Huairong." The boy shouted.

"I, I, the big man, take me with you, I'm very diligent and can do any job!"

The other beggars didn't hesitate and swarmed over.

Every day someone starves to death, and at this time someone can give a bite to eat, even if they are asked to kill people and set fires.

There were a lot of people, and Li Sui'an hurriedly shouted again, "Only those under the age of eighteen are accepted, and the older ones should please fend for themselves." Forgive me, I'm also a small business, and I really can't take care of everyone. ”

"The benefactor is fine, I can not go, please bring my lady. My child is too young, and he hasn't eaten for two days before, and he can't live without his mother. A middle-aged man kept kowtowing to a one-year-old child, and a middle-aged woman with dry hair next to him also kowtowed.

"Get up and speak, I ask you, is this your child?"

"It's mine, it's my flesh and blood."

"How old are you?"

"Back to my benefactor, I am twenty-three this year, and my wife is nineteen years old."

Twenty-three......

Looking like forty or fifty, he almost suspected that these two were human traffickers.

"Count your family."

"Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor." As soon as your knees are weak, you have to kneel down again.

"Don't kneel, don't kneel again."

Li Sui'an counted the heads one by one and distributed buns.

Those who have been hungry are not willing to eat at all, and they have to save it if they hide it and pinch it, for fear that they will not have a meal after eating it.

Luckily, I brought a lot of them today.

"Shopkeeper Li, there are two corpses."

Lao Yu suddenly leaned into his ear to remind him, and looked at the two figures in the straw who had not moved from beginning to end.

Li Sui'an walked over and peeled off the thatched pile, revealing the two corpses of young men who had long been iron-greened.

"It's a little monkey, a little shell."

There was an exclamation from the crowd, and many children who knew the corpse were sad, but that was all.

If the day is precarious, who can take care of whom.

"Lao Yu, please inform the corpse collector later, it is easy to change after a long time."

"Okay." Lao Yu responded.

Early in the morning, Li Sui'an went out, and on the way back, he led a large group of ragged beggars.

After going back, Uncle Fu should count down again.

Thinking so, as soon as he stepped out of the gate, he was stopped.

Dressed in a black flying fish brocade robe, he held a night slashing knife in his hand, and suddenly a seal in his other hand.

"Stop, take out the tooth tag and take a look." The voice is crisp, and she is still a female night watchman. Wearing a hat, it covers most of his face, revealing only a very characteristic beauty groove chin.

But this is ...... Baba's momentum made Li Sui'an feel familiar.

If you look closely, this is ...... He knows.

It's the lantern bearer.

Lao Yu was a little uneasy, Li Sui'an calmly arched his hand and said: "Back to my lord, we are nearby residents, we went out for breakfast in the morning, walked casually, and forgot to bring the tooth card." If you want to see it, we can go back and pick it up immediately. ”

"Why are you here, you opened this seal?"

"Back to my lord, the Xu family and my family are also old, and I came here today just to remember my friends. Today is the first time I have come here since the accident, and there are already many people living in it. I don't know who opened the seal, such a strong wind, maybe it was blown off. ”

The night watchman looked at him for serious nonsense, and then at the large group of young beggars who followed behind him.

After being silent for a long time, he said: "Teach you to be a good man, the seal of the Lantern Division next time must not be torn off, even if it is almost off, don't take it off, understand." ”

"Yes, thank you for your teachings, and the people will keep it in mind."

"Let's go."

She got out of the way.

Li Sui'an immediately took a large group of people and left quickly.

When they were far away, the woman reattached the seal, still only halfway through, so that the door could be opened and closed.

Finally, he took out a large seal and made a heavy seal on the seal. A flash of blue light flashed, then faded into obscurity.

looked in the direction where Li Sui'an left, and chuckled lightly, "Don't kneel." ”

"It's easier for a person who lives well to become a good person......"

She laughed, revealing a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, and her figure flashed, and she had disappeared in place.
