Chapter 7 The Old Rascal Abner
"This stupid fool! if you don't say it, it's hard to let me be a girl!" Musk secretly cursed in her heart, how could she not see the little bit of caution in Star Marks. In the past two years, Starmark has seen and remembered Starmark's care and dedication to herself, and in her heart, Starmark has already been accepted. But there is always a sentence between them, a sentence that makes the relationship between the two clear!
Seeing that Starmark was still hesitating, Musk Stamped her feet angrily, she wanted to take the initiative to say it, but due to the girl's shyness, that sentence was also difficult for her to say.
In a hurry, Musk suddenly said to Xingji: "What are you, do you say it or not, if you don't say it, I'll leave! I'm going back to Feiyang with my parents tomorrow, and it's going to be a few months!"
"Ah, you're leaving, why are you going back to Feiyang? Hearing this, Starmark immediately became anxious.
Seeing that the star mark was in a hurry, Musk Shi felt a little proud in his heart, and said secretly: "See if you say it!"
Immediately, Musk Shi turned his head and showed a look of ignoring the star trace: "I want you to care, whether you say it or not, if you don't say it, I'll leave." ā
"I... Iā" Starmark blushed, and Musk was so anxious that she wanted to stomp her feet. However, just when Musk thought that Starmark would open his mouth to say that sentence, Starmark mustered up the courage for a long time and said the words, "Then be careful on the way back, I'll wait for you... Can you come back for your birthday? I'll have a great gift for you!"
"You stupid!" the musk deer screamed, and without waiting for the star mark to speak, she turned her head and left, and this time she left, she would never have thought that what they missed was not a moment, but a lifetime...
......
The next day, Starmark changed places, thinking that he had escaped the "plague god" Abner, but he didn't expect that the "business" had just been completed three orders, and Abner appeared again, and Abner stood next to Starmark with a faint smile on his face. The two of them did not communicate at all, except that whenever Starmark was about to succeed in begging, Abner would step forward and persuade others not to give alms to Starmark.
In this way, Abner followed the star mark for many days in a row, and although the star mark changed places every day, he could not successfully get rid of Abner. Later, even Abner seemed to have the power of an unpredictable prophet, and when Starmark came to the site where he was about to "start work" today, Abner was already standing there waiting for him with a smile on his face.
"Do you know you're annoying like this! I don't think you're a great sage at all, but a complete old rascal!" "Starmark finally can't stand it anymore, he can be said to be unable to make ends meet these days, although the savings are still very full, but for Starmark, who has a strong desire for money, it is simply torment to see his small treasury shrink day by day.
Abner listened to Starmark angrily reprimanding himself, not only was he not angry, but he was a little embarrassed to rub his finger across his nose, showing an embarrassed expression and said: "It seems a little annoying, but this time you should understand that begging can't give you a guarantee of life, right?"
Whether it was Abner's words or his appearance, it was a little unexpected for the galaxy, making him angry and even a little funny. Of course, there is still more anger, Xingji snorted coldly, and said angrily: "At such an age, you are still cute! Knowing that others are annoying you, it's not too far, how far to go!"
Abner shook his head and said with an innocent expression. "I'm just proving to you that I'm right, and when you understand, I'll leave. ā
"You're just sabotaging like this, you can't prove it at all!" Starmark roared. Suddenly, it attracted the attention of the people around him. Especially when they found out that the protagonist turned out to be a little beggar quarreling with the great savior in their hearts, they immediately surrounded them, this kind of scene, I am afraid that they can only see such a scene once in their lives.
When some people found out that it was Abner, they immediately rebuked Starmark, because in their eyes, Abner was the right pointer, and the great sage could not make a mistake.
Abner did not shy away from the eyes of the others, as if they did not see himself, and continued to look at Starmark one by one: "You see, begging is not a long-term solution, although you can get money now, but what about in the future? It is true that I have used my fame to interfere with your begging work, and this is also because after the number of people who know me is increased, I can persuade others, and it is also the improvement of fame, but it has gone to two extremes, do you still think that begging is very promising? If it is paid by your own hands, then even with my fame, I believe that many people will be willing to pay, and if I insist on blocking it, it will be questioned, right?"
Xingji gritted his teeth angrily after hearing this, although he also knew in his heart that what Abner said was right, but he refused to admit defeat on his lips: "You are not your own ability at all, it's just that you are older, let alone shameless!"
Hearing Starmark scolding Abner, there were noisy voices all around, most of these voices were accusing Starmark, and many people were upset by Abner's previous careful teaching, and they were even more worried that Abner would be angry after being abused.
But who expected Abner to smile calmly: "Actually, being thick-skinned and living for a long time is also an ability." ā
"You !?" Xingji was so angry that his teeth itched, but in the face of this kind of "old scoundrel", he was still young, and he really couldn't argue with the other party.
Abner spread his hands and continued, "Isn't that right?"
ā...... Count you ruthless, hum!" Saying that it was not Abner, Starmark had to rush into the crowd and squeeze out.
That's it, a month ... Two months... Trimester... Abner always followed Starmark, so that Starmark had no chance to make a move, and his small full treasury gradually depleted.
And seeing that his vault was gradually drying up, Starmark was like an ant on a hot pot, because he needed money, and he needed it very urgently!
One day three months later, Starmark set out again, ready to repeat the journey of each day for the past three months, only to find that something seemed to be missing from his side today.
"Huh, he's not there!?"
Starmark immediately looked around as he spoke, and even searched the nearby alley, seeing that there was no sign of Abner, Starmark jumped up excitedly, he was really happy. Starmark thinks that he has won, he finally used his perseverance to drive away the plague god, according to the plan in his heart, there is still enough time now, as long as he works hard, then he will definitely be able to complete it!
In addition to the excitement, Starmark immediately carefully dressed up, ready to take advantage of the fact that Abner was no longer fishing today, and re-grasped his somewhat unfamiliar skills.
However, when he just walked towards a young man and woman, the other party walked away briskly after seeing him, and did not give him a chance to speak at all. Starmark was a little surprised by their actions, but he didn't take it seriously, after all, such people also existed. But soon Starmark found that things were not what he imagined, and every time he walked over with his target, as soon as people found him approaching, they would quickly leave, as if he was infected by Abner, and instead of him, he became the "plague god" in his mouth.
"How could this be..."Starmark frowned, could it be that the old guy had used some new means?
Just when Starmark was puzzled, a man who looked very good-looking quietly walked to Starmark's edge and whispered, "Little beggar, don't beg here, go to another city." Poor boy, how did you offend Master Abner, and why didn't he let others give you alms? ā
When Xingji heard the man's words, he said angrily and angrily: "I didn't offend him, it was that old plague god who pestered me and deliberately made trouble for me!"
When the man heard this, he hurriedly covered Starmark's mouth: "Shhh After looking around and no one was paying attention, the good-faced man let go of Starmark's mouth and continued in a low voice: "You little beggar, I reminded you because I saw that you were pitiful, you still don't tell me the truth, if you didn't offend him, why did you ask me for money last time, Master Abner intervened to stop you." And I've seen it several times that the master follows you and doesn't let others give you alms. If it is not you who have offended him, then you have made a mistake, and Master Abner is educating you. ā
Hearing the man's words, Starmark had a heart to cry, and he finally understood why Abner didn't follow him today, because in the past three months, almost everyone in Prontera City had seen Abner prevent others from giving him alms, so even if Abner no longer followed him, it would be difficult for him to get money again. Anyone would be more inclined to the latter than a beggar or a great sage.
"Stinky old man, old rascal, you ruined my business, if you don't take revenge, I won't call it Starmark!" Gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.
"You kid... Hey" The man sighed regretfully when he heard Starmark's words, and instead of comforting Starmark, he chose to leave. In the Kingdom of Rune, Abner's identity is so special that even if this man has some sympathy for Starmark, all he can do is kindly remind him.
Starmark didn't continue begging, because that was just a wasted effort. He went straight home, changed into clean and decent clothes, and after asking a few people, went to a place, and that place was Abner's residence!
