Chapter 185: The First Partner
"I think a cultivator's leg is much more valuable than these medicinal herbs of yours!" The blood-drinking sword in Zheng Jia's hand glowed with a faint red light, and after cutting off the villager's farm tools with a sword, he said lightly.
"This is a matter between us, what is lost is our things, you outsiders should not interfere!" The middle-aged man shouted inwardly, looking at Zheng Jia's eyes, his tone couldn't be raised.
Putting the blood-drinking sword back into the wrench, Zheng Jia first glanced at the people around him who rushed over to make trouble, and then took out a silver ticket from the wrench, "You can divide this ten thousand taels, don't trouble him in the future!"
After throwing the silver ticket to the middle-aged man, Zheng Jia picked up Che Xiao, who was kneeling on the ground. These people got the benefit, and their faces were not so ugly, and they withdrew one after another.
Although Zheng Jia took action to solve this matter, but Zhao Po passed away and the house collapsed, which means that Che Xiao once again returned to the lonely days at that time, although Che Xiao is not good at words, but for Zheng Jia and the three are full of gratitude, looking at the three brothers, almost crying.
After the crowd moved away, Fei Xuan stood in front of the half-crippled thatched hut, and the vitality around him turned into a flame and burned it. In an instant, a raging fire ignited in front of the four of them, although Che Xiao didn't maintain this simple house much, but he still felt a little sad in his heart.
Looking at this huge flame, Che Yan seemed to see the scenes of the year again. Ever since he could remember, he has been living a life of drinking blood.
Eat raw meat, hunt wild beasts, pick berries, and live in caves. These are the lives he has had with a pack of wolves, and I still remember that when he was only eight years old, he became the leader of the wolf pack, leading the wolf pack to grow gradually, the original seven or eight wolves in a group, to the later growth of thirty or forty wolves.
But the good times didn't last long, but in a hunt, he happened to encounter a mercenary team, thirty or forty wolves were wiped out by this mercenary team in three or five days, and Che Xiao finally ended his beast-like life, until he was nine years old and was adopted by Zhao Po.
Zhao Po taught him to speak human language, taught him to learn the most basic skills in life, such as chopping wood and making fires, etc., of course, the quick and efficient adaptation to this human life is also due to the vitality in his body.
The same is true for being able to become the leader of the wolf pack at the age of eight, cultivating this vitality unconsciously, and becoming a cultivator of the Double Mountain at the age of fifteen, even compared to the current Zheng Jia, it is also an existence that is beyond it.
Of course, even when he was a cultivator, he would not socialize with him, and once Zhao Po also asked Che Xiao to try to find a job, but every job was done for no more than a whole month and was sent away by the store, until Zhao Po was ill and had no money for treatment, so she started the "three hands" industry.
Although the house was burned by Fei Xuan, this does not mean that Che Xiao has nowhere to go.
"I see that your nature is not bad, if you are interested, join us, it just so happens that we also need more talents!" Fei Xuan stretched out his hand, wanting to make friends with Che Xiao, but the other party refused, "Zhao Po said, I hope I will live this life ordinarily, and I will not be allowed to use my strength again, I think, I should learn how to accept this society, join you, then forget it." ”
was rejected by the other party, Fei Xuan's outstretched hand was a little embarrassed, but this is not an important matter, after all, a wild child, his strength is not necessarily very high, but Zheng Jia quietly fell on the small brand on Che Xiao's waist, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he seemed to be seriously recalling something.
After a moment of silence, Zheng Jia broke the peace, "If you want to figure it out, feel free to come to the Dongtu Inn to find me." After speaking, he led Fei Xuan and Hong Mingtian to leave.
Looking at the three backs in the distance, Che Xiao's eyes were a little more hollow, and the flames behind him burned less and less, and finally turned into ashes, but the residual temperature was still there......
In order not to meet those who have been offended by him, Che Xiao chose to stay away from the central area near the Sunset Gladiatorial Arena and go to the southwest to beg for a living, but he was persuaded to retreat one by one when he looked for something to do several times in a row.
Fortunately, it's winter, otherwise if it's summer, wouldn't it be more flavorful if there were a few flies around the head of such a stinky teenager.
Until dusk, the surrounding pedestrians and vendors hurriedly finished their busy work and went back to their homes. Lying on a thick branch, with a dry grass root in his mouth, Che Xiao put his hands behind his head, and swept the returning passers-by with his residual vision, they are going home, what about me......
However, there are such two people among them, which attracted the attention of Che Xiao. These two people are in the opposite direction of the flow of people, and they are most conspicuous from this high place, a woman leading a man, as if he has just come out of a large family.
Looking from the direction when they came, it was a big house, fortunately, Che Xiao's eyesight was enough, and he could see the two gold-inlaid characters of the Li family from a distance, and then he looked at the man and woman, who had disappeared into the flow of people, and they didn't know where to go.
The twilight of winter is the time period when the temperature drops the fastest, which is not enough for a quarter of an hour, Che Xiao sneezed again and again, and the chill gradually hit his heart, even if he wrapped his body with vitality, he also felt cold, if compared, the life of this human being is not as good as the life of a beast.
After all, wild beasts only need to fight for food and water, territory and mates, while humans, not to mention intrigue, also need to live for seven emotions and six desires, and the whole is a slave, a slave of desire.
"Goo ......" his stomach rang very angrily, and Che Xiao jumped off the tree helplessly, wanting to find something to eat, but in this winter, whether it is the predation of wild beasts or begging for food from the human side, it is a difficult thing.
In this dilemma, Che Xiao saw that there was also a person like himself, a dirty and emaciated figure rummaging for something in the garbage can on a street corner.
is different from Che Xiao, this person is holding a cane in his hand and a broken bowl, although he is wearing more clothes than Che Xiao, but they are all broken and rotten, and he can't find anything valuable.
After a long time, the man took out a piece of bread from the bucket that was only half a piece of bread that was only half eaten, wiped the stains around it with his cuff, and chewed it slowly in his mouth without hesitation.
This is the beggar living on the street, to put it nicely, called Hanako, who has hands and feet but lives a life of begging for garbage, watching this beggar eat garbage deliciously, Che Xiao's stomach also made up a lively and cooing sound.
After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Che Xiao's throat let out a grunt, and then his feet seemed to begin to become disobedient, and he took a step ...... Two-step ......
Quietly approaching the beggar's position, Che Xiao finally made a sprint, the beggar saw that someone suddenly rushed over, and thought that someone was going to come and beat him, so he hurriedly fled here with a broken bowl and a turn.
After driving away the beggars, Che Xiao also learned to look like this, rummaging around in this small bucket, and finally only found half of the apple with the core that was eaten by others. After swallowing hard, Che Xiao closed his eyes vigorously and chewed in his mouth.
......
"Third brother, what do you think, how is that Che Xiao?" The three brothers sat at the dinner table and were about to eat, Fei Xuan first asked Zheng Jia, seeing that his question failed to pull him from his thoughts, he couldn't help frowning slightly, "What's wrong with you?"
Finally, he grabbed Zheng Jia's shoulder with his hand and shook him a few times, which shook him back from deep thought, "Ah, nothing, nothing......"
"It's nothing, you clearly have something. Come on, come on, tell me what you're thinking. Fei Xuan was originally the kind of person who was very arrogant, but when he saw Zheng Jia meditating so hard, he was aroused by it.
Taking a deep breath, Zheng Jia looked around again, although there were a few customers inside, but it was still a little far away from them, and then he said softly with confidence: "Don't you know? ”
"No, where did you get the news?" Hong Mingtian and Fei Xuan glanced at each other and couldn't help but ask curiously. As for the Che family, they are not particularly interested, but where did Zheng Jia's gossip come from, which is a bit strange.
"What do you care about where this news came from, let me tell you again, that Che Xiao's cultivation talent is not below the three of us, he is a second mountain, it's no problem, right? But he is one or two years younger than me, so I want to pull him into the gang, do you have any opinions?"
Fei Xuan and Hong Mingtian glanced at each other again, Fei Xuan has the most say in the fact that Che Xiao has the strength of the double mountain, but how old he is, can he see it with his eyes?
Zheng Jia's answer was very simple, looking at his face, he looked like he was smaller than himself, and this also focused on showing that Che Xiao's cultivation talent was indeed good.
Such a casual perfunctory approach also made Hong Mingtian feel bored for a while, "Forget it, you guys wait for it, I'll go back to accompany my daughter-in-law first, hehe......."
The two of them were embarrassed, cast a disdainful gaze, and then raised their middle fingers at Hong Mingtian, watching him leave, just when Hong Mingtian was about to step out of the threshold, Zheng Jia suddenly remembered something, and immediately pulled out the ghost dodge gun from his finger and threw it over, "Don't forget, even if you get a beauty, don't forget to improve your marksmanship." ”
After receiving the ghost dodging the gun, Hong Mingtian answered, and walked towards the Jiang family without looking back. The two watched Hong Mingtian leave, scoffed at this, and then drank and ate.
At this meal, the two of them always felt that something was missing from eating and drinking, and exchanged their future development routes, and Zheng Jia also agreed to buy a new weapon for Fei Xuan.
