It's not just words and memories.

Through the projection above the river of time, Jiang He was already able to substitute into it.

Just like interfering in person, you can make your own choices, but you don't have a corresponding power bonus.

In this way, it seems that there are only four general directions.

In terms of details, there is too much room for operation.

For example, at this time, Jiang He sat weakly in the dark, heard a slight footstep not far away, and groaned slightly.

"The power bonus of interference can restore me to my peak state on the spot, and I can get rid of hunger and powerlessness......"

"However, as a weak and disabled beggar, I don't know how many dangers I will encounter if I want to regain my qi."

"Every opportunity to intervene is precious."

"You can try to solve your hunger and thirst first, and then use the opportunity to interfere when you are really desperate."

Thinking of this, Jiang He made a decision.

【Looking for Swill】

Compared to the precious opportunity to interfere, it is not unacceptable to eat some swill or something.

Jiang He struggled to get up, hunched his body, and walked in the direction where the smell of swill came from little by little in the dark.

Emaciated camels are bigger than horses.

Although the predecessor was abolished by the sea of qi and fell from a monk to a mortal, he also experienced the reiki quenching, and his physical foundation was much stronger than that of ordinary people.

In particular, the senses, although they have lost their vision, their sense of smell and hearing is still much sharper than that of ordinary people.

Able to smell rich scents and hear a variety of subtle sounds.

In addition, Jiang He had established an incomparably large perception domain through the powerful perception of the white wolf projection, and he had a similar experience.

Now, though there was darkness before his eyes.

But the world is not empty—

The abundant smell in all directions, the footsteps of people, the sound of the breeze whistling through the trees, the slight sound of the cat's pads falling to the ground......

These rich elements formed a unique world in Jiang He's mind.

In the endless darkness, there were still blurred figures.

With this sense, he managed to avoid pedestrians and walked little by little in the direction of the swill.

Of course, the impact of losing vision is just as great.

Not everything makes a sound or smells distinct.

The ruggedness, depressions, and stones that can be seen everywhere on the road pose a great threat to Ega.

If you are not careful, you will step on the air and trip.

makes the already weak state even worse.

Jiang He had to walk more slowly and cautiously, exploring every obstacle in his path.

However, not all obstacles can be overcome.

The once-once walls that could be seen everywhere became a stumbling block, and his long exploration was in vain, and he had to make a detour again.

I don't know how long it took or how many times I fell.

The smell of swill became stronger and stronger, as if it was a delicacy in the world, which made Jiang He's heartbeat accelerate slightly, but his chapped lips could no longer secrete much saliva.

He was about to quicken his pace, but suddenly stopped.

Breathing, heartbeat, footsteps......

In his world, in the direction of the swill, several vague figures appeared.

The figure stood in the distance, giving a warning.

"Get out!"

“……”

It's broken.

Jiang He's heart sank.

The chaotic situation of the Ying dynasty made the number of displaced people greatly increased compared with several dynasties in later generations.

These homeless people have nowhere to go but to become beggars and use all means to keep themselves alive.

At this time, the shabu-shabu swill of large families has become a precious resource, occupied by strong beggars.

Jiang He is currently so weak that he belongs to the bottom among the beggars, and it is impossible to take food from them.

"I don't even have to eat swill......

"Is there any other way?"

Jiang He didn't have a conflict with these people, slowly retreated, avoided the crowd, found a corner where no one was around, and sat down for a while.

He pursed his dry lips and looked up at the sky, but there was no light.

Hunger can be resisted, and lack of water is the real enemy.

As long as he replenishes enough water, with his monk foundation, he can at least recover a small half of his physical strength.

"It would be nice if it rained......"

Jiang He sighed lightly, feeling that his strength had recovered a little.

He was about to stand up and ask for a bowl of water from a passer-by along the road.

Suddenly, footsteps came from a distance, mixed with the sound of water shaking.

A somewhat immature voice sounded, like a heavenly sound.

"Do you want water?"

"Thou hast been thirsty and thirsty, and hast sought swill. 】

[However, you worked hard to approach, but you were blocked by the beggars, forced to retreat, and took a short rest by the roadside, lamenting that the heavy rain had not arrived. 】

[I want to get up again, get the help of nobles, drink a scoop of water, and gradually recover my physical strength. 】

The nobleman is not a big family-

On the contrary, Jiang He could smell the stench of the other party's body that had not been cleaned for a long time, very similar to the group of people who had occupied the swill before.

It is clear that this is the same beggar.

And listening to the voice, it was a young beggar.

But this does not affect Jiang He, he is a noble man who sends charcoal in the snow.

A scoop of water was slowly drained, and then I sat down and rested for a while.

Jiang He's mouth and lips are still dry, but his physical strength has recovered a lot, the feeling of weakness has dissipated a lot, and his movements on his feet are more stable.

Such a solid physical fitness brought Jiang He a lot of confidence.

He simply groped the ground, found a few weeds, pulled them directly and stuffed them into his mouth, chewed and swallowed.

The dry and hard weeds fell into the abdomen, and with the water just now, they were forcibly digested by the hungry stomach, turned into a little strength, and poured all over the body.

Jiang He breathed a long sigh of relief.

I finally got through the near-death period and entered a period of weakness.

Next, as long as there is enough water, even if he is gnawing grass, he can live normally.

Then find a way to get some normal food to replenish your strength.

As long as you can recover the strength of a normal person, even if you lose your vision, with your rich combat experience, it is absolutely no problem to defeat some street beggars and gangsters.

Then, it's time to recharge your energy and find a way to reshape the sea of qi.

Dawn is just around the corner.

Jiang He was in a steady state of mind, looked in the direction of the nobleman, opened his mouth to make a sound, attracted attention, and pointed to the water scoop.

Without words, the other party understood what Jiang He meant.

"Still need water?"

A few days ago, the little beggar had noticed this blind and dumb stranger.

The reason why he is said to be a strange man, he seems to be unclothed and dirty, but he does not look like a beggar, but a waste man who has been tortured and thrown to the side of the road.

His body was full of healed scars, and he was depressed, without the slightest will to live.

Except for the first few days, I barely found something to feed my stomach, and lay down directly in the back and waited for death.

The beggars in the city have survived until now, and they are not fools, and they guess that this person is hiding a huge trouble, so they dare not approach.

Don't bully, don't help.

The little beggar was the same, watching this strange man from afar, a little decaying, and dying.

However, on the eve of the strange man's complete decay, he suddenly figured it out and radiated the vitality of life-

No longer bent on dying, but struggling to get up and find food.

The little beggar watched him from afar, fell several times, got up with difficulty, and walked forward firmly.

The little beggar didn't understand where his strong desire to survive came from, but he was also touched.

After hesitating for a long time, he scooped up a scoop of water.

At this point, he saw that the strange man wanted more water, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

"I'll take you."

Just a little water, it shouldn't be a problem.

Blind to the strange man's eyes, the little beggar grabbed him by his clothes, pulled him to the river in the city, scooped up another scoop of water, and handed it to him.

Then, quietly depart.

This weirdo is not a small trouble, so it's better to be less troublesome.

However, the little beggar did not go far when he found that the strange man had chased after him with a water scoop.

“…… I don't want it, I'll send it away. ”

The little beggar thought that the strange man had come to return the scoop, and after saying a word, he hurriedly ran away.

In order to prevent the strange man from catching up again, he also slowed down and tiptoed away.

However, the strange man has changed from his previous clumsiness and dullness to become extremely sharp.

Even if he slows his steps, the weirdo can still lock his position and never leave.

He ran wildly, walked through the streets, and even climbed over low walls—

The strange man still chased after him, avoiding pedestrians, and crossed the low wall in three or two steps, which was more skilful and light than his movements, and even gave people a pleasing feeling.

Is this blind?

The little beggar was stunned.

He found that he really couldn't get rid of this strange man, so he had to stop and pant out of breath.

"You...... What are you following me for? ”

The strange man couldn't speak, so he took out the scoop and gestured with his hand.

The little beggar couldn't understand his gesture, but vaguely understood what he meant.

"Because of the water?"

The little beggar wanted to cry without tears.

Sure enough, I shouldn't be nosy.

Well, now, because of a scoop of water, there is an extra heel worm around me who can't get rid of it.

[A scoop of water, a life. 】

[You want to follow the nobleman, keep him safe, and repay his kindness.] 】

[The noble man readily agreed. 】

[Instead of living in the city, you sleep in the lanes, eat grass and get fruits, and occasionally get alms, and eat them. 】

[Don't make trouble, just accumulate sharpness, and grow stronger and stronger. 】

Jiang He has always been the grace of dripping water, and the spring reciprocates.

Not to mention the grace of life?

decisively chose to follow the little beggar and protect him.

As for doing so, is there a risk of attracting evil cultivators and implicating benefactors......

Not at all.

Not to mention, Wanping City is the territory of the thirty-two families, and after the evil cultivator abolished the predecessor, he had already left, and it was impossible to stay here for a long time, just to have fun.

You must know that the evil cultivators torture the children of the family in order to let the other party live lowly, not die happily.

The little beggar rescued Jiang He, which was a good thing for the evil cultivators.

can make Jiang He be tortured for a longer time.

Secondly, in troubled times, people are like mustard.

The monk is not yet at peace, let alone a little beggar?

During Jiang He's stay in Yunping City, the smell of beggars in the city changed many rounds, and I don't know how many died.

Instead of thinking about implication, it is better to save the life of the benefactor first.

And that's exactly what happened.

After the little beggar got together with Jiang He, he encountered a lot less of all kinds of things.

The beggars in the city avoided the strangers, but instead reduced the incident.

As for the diet......

At first, Jiang He could only drink water and eat grass, and most of the occasionally stolen and unripe sour fruits were left for the little beggars.

After all, the impact of loss of vision is too great.

Even if Jiang He regained some physical strength, at most he could catch up with a slow-running minor like a little beggar, and even picking fruits was very difficult, so he could only grope a little bit.

However, occasionally rub some wild fruits, plus begging food.

Jiang He's physical strength gradually increased, and his strength began to return to the level of a normal person.

The most important thing is that he gradually adapts and gets used to life without vision, and tries to use this as a basis to develop his abilities.

Put aside the sight, use the sense of hearing, taste, and touch to feel the world.

So, when the two hid in the alleyway and the open space to rest.

The little beggar can always see that Jiang He closed his eyes and crossed his knees, motionless, as if he had turned into a stone carving.

It's like a legendary immortal, weird, mysterious.

Since Jiang He was mute, the little beggar couldn't ask what he was doing, so he could only hide his doubts in his heart.

Until a certain day.

Jiang He sat cross-legged, and suddenly raised his hand and threw it, and the cold light flew by.

With a birdsong, a big fat bird was planted on the ground.

On this day, in the shock and saliva of the little beggar, the two finally tasted the taste of meat.

It was on this day that life began to change.

The range of life of the two has expanded from the city to the wild mountains and forests of the city, often going out to hunt and hunting one or two wild birds to feed their stomachs.

And that's just the beginning.

The sound of birds flying is loud and easily recognizable.

Creatures have a heartbeat, breathe, and can also confirm location.

However, motionless dead objects, especially those with smaller bodies, are difficult to orient.

Jiang He can only judge by the direction of the wind.

So, in order to go further, he went out of the city and stood in the stream.

Feel the impact of every flow of water on the sense of touch, feel every ripple in the water, and feel the action of the creatures in the water.

This is an intensive training for the sense of touch.

At first, for a whole month, nothing was gained.

Until a certain day.

Jiang He poked the wooden stick in his hand, and when he raised it again, a grass carp was struggling on the wooden stick.

The little beggar was dumbfounded, looking at Jiang He's gaze, and became more and more shocked.

Is Jiang He blind......

Or is he blind?

When Ega dodged many obstacles with his bare hands, he caught a wild hare in the woods.

The little beggar finally couldn't help it.

"Who the hell are you, dumb?"

“……”

Ega closed his eyes and wrote on the ground with a wooden stick.

The little beggar also closed his eyes.

He was illiterate.

No matter how difficult the communication was, the relationship between the little beggar and Jiang He became more and more harmonious.

He initially saw the weirdos as trouble, with a hint of fear.

However, after a long time together, these emotions gradually dissipated.

The little beggar discovers that the mute seems to be a strange man, but in fact he is gentle and reliable.

Not only did he help him drive away those who had ulterior motives, but he also occasionally got one or two wild fruits, or alms from well-wishers, and most of the mutes were given to him, and he usually only ate wild grass to survive.

It is completely different from those beggars who fight like wild beasts in dark corners in order to fight for territory and food.

The little beggar gradually let go of his guard and regarded the mute as a companion.

often look up at the starry night and chat with him-

Well, it's actually a one-sided outpouring.

"Dumb, you are so powerful, and you are literate, you must have been a very powerful person before, right?"

"Actually, I used to live well, I was a young master from a rich family, and I used a golden rice bowl for dinner!"

"Okay, I lied to you, I don't have a father, I was picked up by my grandfather."

"Grandpa was beaten to death, so I had to come out and beg for food by myself......"

"Dumb, grandpa said that there are immortals in the sky, who can soar the clouds and drive the fog, and call the wind and rain...... Do you know what an immortal is? ”

"I really want to become an immortal and go to the sky to see it."

"Don't worry, mute, when I grow up, I will definitely help you avenge and kill all the people who hurt you."

The boy had bathed in the river, his young face was free of dirt, and he lay down looking at the starry sky, his eyes full of anticipation for the future.

The young man lay beside him, his eyes closed, as if he had long since fallen asleep.
