Bang!

Between the lightning and flint, only a muffled sound was heard.

Li Fu flew out upside down and slammed into the ground, splashing a puff of smoke and dust.

The dirty little beggar stood still, keeping his fist out, motionless.

Moment.

The surroundings were quiet.

When everyone saw this scene, their eyes widened, their mouths opened slightly, and their faces were incredulous.

Not to mention them, even Xiao Rongxue was a little confused.

This little beggar clearly doesn't have the slightest aura fluctuation on his body, why can he punch the middle-aged man of Jiupin away?

But Ren Pingsheng realized something, and stared directly at the little beggar's red fist, his eyes were deep.

"Do you see something?"

After a few breaths, Xiao Rongxue looked at Ren Pingsheng beside her and asked softly.

Ren Pingsheng's expression was flat, and he replied in a low voice: "She is a barbarian cultivator." ”

Most of the monks in the world can be divided into two categories.

One type of cultivation is the power of luck.

The other type of cultivation is self-cultivation.

The former aside, as far as the latter is concerned, cultivation is inseparable from the three major elements, qi, blood, and primordial spirit.

Qi and blood are the so-called physique, and the primordial spirit is the so-called soul.

Different cultivation systems have different emphasis on these three.

For example, the Daomen mainly focuses on qi training, supplemented by the cultivation of the Yuan Shen, and does not attach importance to essence and blood.

Wufu cultivates both qi and blood, but does not pay attention to the original spirit.

And there is a cultivation system that only attaches importance to essence blood, neither refining qi nor cultivating the primordial spirit, and completely relies on a strong physique when fighting.

In the eyes of the world, martial arts are just vulgar, and this cultivation system is completely a symbol of barbarism, so it is called brute cultivation.

"Brute cultivation?"

Xiao Rongxue was slightly stunned.

It's a word she hasn't heard in a long time.

"After the Martial Saint preached, isn't there no brute cultivation in the territory of the Great Zhou?"

"If there is no big week, it doesn't mean that there are no other places."

Ren Pingsheng stared at the little beggar, and his voice unconsciously lowered.

Xiao Rongxue was stunned again, but quickly reacted, her pupils shrank, and she whispered: "You mean, she is a barbarian?" ”

Ren Pingsheng did not deny it, nor did he affirm it.

has lived in the north for twenty years, and he is much more familiar with barbarians than Xiao Rongxue.

The little beggar in front of him had a very strange accent, most likely the dialect of a certain tribe of the barbarians.

The cultivation system can also be correct.

The only problem is that she is too short, looking less than 1.6 meters.

You must know that the average height of adult women of the barbarian tribe is one meter nine, and women who are two meters tall can be seen everywhere.

The little beggar in front of him looked like although he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, he was one meter six tall, and he was still too short compared to barbarians of the same age, and it was no exaggeration to say that he was a dwarf.

Of course.

The most important thing is that the barbarian tribe is not much different from Yongning County, not to mention 108,000 miles.

How could a fourteen or fifteen-year-old barbarian girl come here alone?

Totally unconscionable.

Side.

Xiao Rongxue realized it and muttered: "No, this Yong'an County is remote and poor, far from the north, why did the barbarians come here?" ”

Ren Pingsheng glanced at her and asked rhetorically, "Why are you here?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Rongxue realized something, her eyes sank, and the voice came into her ears: "You mean, she is also for the secret realm?" ”

Ren Pingsheng is only a seventh grade, and he does not have the ability to transmit sound into his ears, so he replied in a low voice: "I don't rule out this possibility." ”

When Xiao Rongxue heard this, she turned her head to look at the little beggar and looked at it carefully.

The little face was dirty, the hair was shabby, and the clothes on the body were tattered and dusty, and those who didn't know thought they had been fished out of the mud.

The two slender arms that were exposed were tanned.

At first glance, it looks like a little beggar who has been wandering for months and has never bathed.

Take a closer look...... It's still the same.

"It's clearly a little beggar."

Xiao Nuxia watched it for a long time, but she didn't think that she could be connected with the secret realm.

The other side.

The passers-by around came back to their senses, lowered their voices, and persuaded the girl: "Then Li Fu is a member of the Li family, little girl, you can't afford to provoke it." ”

"Hurry up, it'll be too late if you don't leave."

The girl held the bowl and said in the crappy Da Zhou official dialect: "Wo is not beaten, I want to enter the scale, go into the city to find food." ”

"You are a little girl from out of town, you have offended the Li family, even if you know some punches and kicks, you can beat those officials when you enter the city, listen to uncle, run quickly."

A middle-aged farmer anxiously persuaded.

But the girl turned a deaf ear, opened her mouth, and wanted to say something.

Then.

There was a rush of footsteps.

Immediately after, several hunters dressed in power suits and swords at their waists walked over.

It's not there yet.

Li Fu, who was paralyzed on the ground, shouted loudly: "She committed violence against me in broad daylight!" Hurry up and grab her! ”

The leader of the catcher walked straight to the girl, and his tone was cold: "Come with us." ”

The girl's dirty little face showed a look of vigilance, and her accent was strange: "I don't know you, where are you going to take me?" ”

Another catcher sneered: "Where are you going?" Go to jail for dinner! ”

As soon as the words fell.

A bright light burst out of the girl's eyes, and she was excited: "Eat? ”

These two words are said in a straight and round tone, and I can't hear the accent at all.

“……”

Several catchers were stunned.

"Lao Tzu is talking about eating prison food, not eating!"

The fast face was twisted together, with a fierce and vicious look, and said sharply.

"You're going to take me to dinner......"

The girl was in tears, and she looked like she was moved: "You are a good person." ”

“……”

Seeing that she was not pretending, she was speechless for a while.

After a while, he scolded: "At this time, you dare to pretend to be stupid!" Don't talk nonsense, go with Lao Tzu! ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw the girl chick nodding like pecking rice: "I'll go with you and eat rice." ”

"Prison rice, not rice."

Catching up a little helplessly, looking at the girl, he said angrily: "Lao Tzu warns you, don't think about running away......"

Talking and talking.

I saw the girl looking at her with clear and expectant eyes.

I can't say the rest of the words.

"Forget it, come with me."

Catcher sighed and turned to walk towards the city.

The girl did not resist and happily followed him.

When Li Fu saw this scene, he was a little confused.

He always felt that things should not be this way, but he didn't know what was wrong.

People obediently followed the arrester to go to prison.

And what could he say?

You can't drag someone over and beat them up.

Passers-by didn't know what to say.

After all, the little girl was walking with the catcher by herself, and she was very happy to watch.

Stop her, she may be angry.

Time.

There was an eerie silence on both sides of the official road.

It was at this time.

Ren Pingsheng suddenly spoke: "Wait!" ”

Caught up and stopped, turned his head to look at him, frowned slightly, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Ren Pingsheng said coldly: "I have taken a fancy to this person, you can't take her away." ”

Caught up for a moment, and looked at him carefully.

Seeing him riding a high-headed horse with three jade pendants pinned to his waist, his face showed hesitation.

The boy in front of him, who has come out to experience at a glance, there is no need to argue with him for a stupid little beggar.

After thinking for a few seconds, he said in a deep voice: "According to the law, whoever commits murder and hurts others shall be punished with twenty lashes, and if he wants to be exempted from punishment, he must pay ten taels of silver." ”

In other words, pay ten taels of silver, and the matter will be revealed.

As for Li Fu......

A housekeeper of the Li family, who has a dispute with the poor, can face him.

Compared with the son of the family, or the experienced young man, he is a fart.

"Murder and wounding?"

Ren Pingsheng sneered, stretched out his hand to Li Fu, and said sharply: "This person is forced to buy and sell, oppress the people, she sees that the road is uneven, and she acts chivalrous and righteous, what's wrong?" ”

Side.

When Xiao Rongxue heard this, she was slightly stunned, and her expression when she looked at Ren Pingsheng changed a little.

She originally thought that with Ren Pingsheng's calm style, she would pay ten taels of silver to settle things.

But he didn't expect him to be tough.

Opposite side.

Li Fu and the catchers were also stunned, but they didn't expect that they would give the steps, and this boy would not go down.

There was silence for a few seconds.

The leader of the hunt said in a deep voice: "Whether it is a murder and injury or a chivalrous act, it doesn't matter if you two say it, it doesn't count, and the dispute is nothing more than going to the yamen to find the magistrate to judge, how to deal with it, you weigh it yourself." ”

After saying that, he silently took a few steps back.

The meaning is very clear, what to do, you two discuss, if the discussion is not good, let's go to the yamen.

Well...... standard and dilute mud.

Li Fu saw that he was about to stay out of the matter, scolded a few words in his heart, raised his eyes and carefully looked at Ren Pingsheng.

Although he was just an ordinary power suit, the noble temperament displayed in his gestures was unmatched by anyone he had seen.

"This person is unfathomable, I'm afraid that even the master may not be able to provoke him."

That's it.

Li Fu stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and squeezed out a smile: "Misunderstanding, it's all misunderstanding......

"You oppress the good, I have seen it with my own eyes, there is nothing to misunderstand."

Ren Pingsheng controlled the horses, came to Li Fu, looked down at him condescendingly, and said in a cold tone: "You just have to tell me, which dog are you?" ”

The voice fell.

It was quiet again.

"Something big is going to happen."

The leader's heart sank, and he said in a low voice: "You guys are guarding here, I'll go back and inform the county lord." ”

With that, leave quickly.

A strong killing intent came to his face, Li Fu held his head high, looked at Ren Pingsheng who was high above, and his heart sank to the bottom.

After a little hesitation, he squeezed out a smile and replied obediently: "Small, the little one is the housekeeper of the Li Mansion." ”

His voice trembled, and he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction from beginning to end.

Ren Pingsheng looked at him coldly, his voice was full of coldness: "Give you a chance, tell you all about what the Li family has done behind your back in recent years, and I will spare you from dying." ”

What is it to do?

Could he be a messenger sent by the imperial court?

This thought came to mind, Li Fu was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, the Li Mansion is all law-abiding people, good people, my lord will take out silver on weekdays to help the people, where will it ......"

The words are not finished yet.

A chill appeared, and a blood streak appeared on his face out of thin air.

This was followed by a scolding: "Less nonsense!" Say it or die! ”

"Spare your life!"

Li Fu stretched out his hand and touched his face, and when he saw the bloodstains, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy loudly.

Around.

Whether it is a catcher, a passerby, or a farmer, they are all stunned when they see this scene.

They never thought of it.

The steward of the Li Mansion, who has always been high and invincible, is like a dog at this moment, kneeling at the feet of a strange young man, wagging his tail and begging for mercy.

Behind.

When Xiao Rongxue saw this scene, she was also a little confused.

Not because of Li Fu, but because of Ren Pingsheng.

How does she feel that today's Ren Pingsheng is a little different?

After all, in the past, he probably wouldn't care about the evil deeds he hadn't seen with his own eyes.

"Looks like you want to die."

Ren Pingsheng's tone was cold, and he held the broken knife.

The sun shines on the blade, reflecting a little cold.

In the face of death, Li Fu's psychological defense line collapsed instantly, and he cried and explained: "The adults spare their lives, and the little ones all say!" ”

Immediately after, he began to list the crimes that had been committed by the Li Mansion.

This includes, but is not limited to, forcibly robbing people's women, committing murders, colluding with officials and businessmen, raising grain prices, seeking benefits, and so on.

"That's all, I can't think of the little ones."

After two pillars of incense, Li Fu knelt on the ground and said tremblingly.

Ren Pingsheng took everything he said to heart, and turned his head to look at the ragged brute girl.

She stood there, her bright, dark eyes revealing a clear knowledge tainted with it.

At the same time, I was a little dazed.

As if he didn't understand, the man didn't believe his words and promised to take him to prison, but he turned around and ran away.

"What's your name?"

Ren Pingsheng looked at her and asked softly.

Hearing him ask his name, the girl's dirty little face showed a look of wariness and did not answer.

"What about the stupidity that was abducted from someone else's prison just now? This will be alarming. ”

Ren Pingsheng complained in his heart, thought about it, and asked again: "Please eat, do you want to go?" ”

"Go!"

Hearing that he was going to invite herself to dinner, the girl's eyes lit up and she nodded excitedly.

"It's been a few days of hunger, and when I hear about eating, my eyes light up."

Ren Pingsheng scolded him, looked at Xiao Rongxue, and admonished: "You are watching her here, I will go to the city and come back immediately." ”

"Would you like to help?"

Xiao Rongxue knew what he was going to do and asked in a low voice.

Ren Pingsheng said lightly: "No need." ”

With that, he tugged on the reins and controlled the horses to gallop towards the city.

Li Fu has already explained.

Up and down the Li Mansion, the strongest one is an offering, and he just stepped into the five grades some time ago, and the foundation is not stable.

Although Ren Pingsheng is only a seventh grade, there is no problem in dealing with him.

Even if the information is wrong, with the soft armor rewarded by the emperor and the talisman of the little heavenly master, he can easily get out of trouble.

Behind.

Xiao Rongxue watched Ren Pingsheng's back gradually disappear from her sight, and an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.

In the past two days, she and Ren Pingsheng have robbed the rich and helped the poor, and she has become more and more aware that this is not the sword battle she dreams of?

If only we could keep going like this.

It's a pity......

After all, all this is just an episode on the way to the secret realm, and when the mission to explore the secret realm is over, it will be back to the same state.

That's it.

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, turned over and dismounted, and came to the brute cultivator girl.

I was about to talk, but before I could speak, I saw the girl look worried and asked in a low voice, "Will he come back?" ”

"Nature."

After speaking, he added: "Since he promised to invite the girl to dinner, he will definitely not break his promise, and the girl can rest assured." ”

"Hmm."

The girl nodded, didn't say anything, but looked in the direction where Ren Pingsheng left from time to time.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Rongxue asked tentatively, "Why don't you take the girl to the restaurant to fill your stomach first?" ”

"Stomach ...... every day"

There was a blank look in the girl's eyes, as if she didn't understand what it meant.

Xiao Rongxue explained: "It's just eating. ”

Hearing the word "eat", the girl's eyes lit up instantly, and without the slightest hesitation, she nodded heavily: "Okay!" ”

It's been a long time since I've been hungry.

His eyes glowed green.

Xiao Rongxue thought so in her heart and said, "Follow me." ”

After speaking, he led the horse and walked towards the county seat.

The girl did not hesitate and obediently followed.

After two pillars of incense.

Xiao Rongxue found a noodle stall near the city gate, took out a few copper plates from her arms and slapped them on the table: "Let's have a bowl of somen noodles." ”

"Okay! Wait a minute, guest officer! ”

The owner of the noodle stall answered and began to pull the noodles.

"The girl will eat a bowl of noodles first, and when Ren Pingsheng, the one who invited you to dinner just now, comes back, let's go to the restaurant to have a good meal...... Hey, what about people? ”

Xiao Rongxue was halfway through speaking, turned her head to look, and found that her side was empty.

After looking around, I saw that the girl was standing next to the noodle stall owner, staring at the dough without blinking, swallowing her saliva.

"You can swallow saliva when you look at the dough?" Xiao Rongxue was speechless for a while.

The stall owner was a little uncomfortable being stared at like this, and waved his hand, trying to kick her out.

That's when it happened.

The girl lifted the broken bowl in her hand, held it to her chest, looked at the noodle stall owner with teary eyes, and said pitifully: "The old man has a good heart, do a good deed, give me a bite to eat." ”

This sentence is said in a round tone, and there is no accent at all.

"How many times do you have to say it to be so familiar."

The corners of Xiao Rongxue's eyes twitched, and she reminded: "Girl, the bowl of somen noodles I want is yours." ”

Listening to her reminder, the girl reacted, walked up to her, and scratched her head a little embarrassed: "Get used to it." ”

You can see it.

Xiao Rongxue replied in her heart and pulled a bench: "Sit and rest, a bowl of somen noodles, it won't take long." ”

"Thank you."

The girl sat down obediently, looked at Xiao Rongxue with clear eyes, and said movingly: "You are a good person." ”

Xiao Rongxue was just silent.

At this moment, the voice of the noodle stall owner sounded.

"A bowl of somen noodles!"

A steaming bowl of somen noodles was placed on the table.

Moment.

The girl's gaze shifted to the plain noodles and swallowed.

"Eat."

Xiao Rongxue's voice just fell.

The girl picked up her chopsticks and devoured them.

"Hot! Slow down! ”

Xiao Rongxue was shocked and hurriedly reminded.

The girl turned a deaf ear and worked hard.

Not for a while.

A bowl of somen noodles is about to bottom.

This time.

The girl suddenly stopped, staring directly at the remaining noodles in the bowl, her dirty little face showing a tangled look, as if facing some important choice.

After a few breaths, she finally made up her mind, pushed the bowl to Xiao Rongxue opposite, and whispered, "Also, to Ni." ”

"It's ...... Left for me? ”

Xiao Rongxue was stunned.

looked at the bowl with only a few noodles left, and then looked at the girl who was staring at the bowl and swallowed her saliva, a warm current surged in her heart, and she smiled: "I'm not hungry." ”

"Really?" The girl blinked and asked.

"Really." Xiao Rongxue nodded.

"Then I'll eat ......"

Before the words fell, the girl had already put the remaining noodles into her mouth, followed closely, picked up the bowl, and drank the noodle soup in a big gulp.

Before Xiao Rongxue could react, a bowl of somen noodles was completely bottomed out, and there was not even a little noodle soup left.

It's no exaggeration to say that the bowl is cleaner than a dog has ever licked.

“……”

Xiao Rongxue was silent for a long time, and asked tentatively, "Why don't you ...... Another bowl? ”
