Chapter 8 Begging is also a craft

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Lin woke up from a coma, not so much a coma as a coma, and the superimposed effect of the seven heaven and earth positive symbols made the boy stimulate most of the potential in his body, so the body's protective mechanism automatically made the boy fall into a coma so that he could slowly recover.

Wang Lin looked at his hands, because of the shocking punch yesterday, his right hand has been peeled open, even after a night, the wound on the back of the hand is still deep and bone, and there are still many scabs. He tried to stand up, but felt a sharp numbness all over his body, and then fell back to the ground, gasping for air.

Wu Chi was woken up by Wang Lin's sound, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and said to Wang Lin: "You used the power that doesn't belong to you in advance to cause you to be like this." You can recover slowly in three or four days, but if you bump all day, you won't be able to recover for half a month, so we still don't want to go out of Broken Water City before that. ”

Wang Lin was extremely sore, and after some weighing, he decided to wait for his body to recover before setting off.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, Wu Chi swallowed and spit, and moved slightly behind Wang Lin. After a while, the old horse appeared in front of the two teenagers, and two sets of clothes were hunched on their backs.

Wang Lin looked at the old horse suspiciously, and the old horse silently shook off the clothes on his body, which were two beggar's tattered clothes. The old horse looked at the clothes and then at the two teenagers, and the meaning was self-evident. Wu Chi comprehended, took off his robe, grabbed a tattered dress and put it on, and did not forget to scratch his hair and touch the ashes on his face, which was extremely skillful.

Wang Lin looked at Wu Chi dumbfounded, Wu Chi was not hypocritical, and proudly followed Wang Lin and said: "When I went out with my master in the past, my senior brother sometimes watched closely and didn't let us bring too much money at all, so often Master and I were begging to travel to the rivers and lakes. ”

"Do you still have a senior brother?" asked Wang Lin.

"Yes, but he is always serious, and neither Master nor I are willing to take him out to play. Wu Chi said with a look of disgust.

Looking at Wu Chi's appearance, Wang Lin was speechless, endured the pain all over his body, and it took a long time to change his clothes, and then Wu Chi carried him on his back and walked to the street outside.

Although it was early in the morning, there were already a lot of pedestrians on the streets of Broken Water City, and there were many more customers in the teahouses and restaurants.

Everyone is talking about three strange things that happened last night in Broken Water City.

The first is that a mansion surnamed Liu in a wealthy area collapsed inexplicably for some reason, turning into a large area of ruins, crushing an old housekeeper to death, but what is even more strange is that more than a dozen white bones were dug up in the courtyard of the mansion, and according to the calculations made, the earliest has been dead for ten years, and the latest has just been dead for half a year! At this time, the government has intervened.

The second thing, last night, a four-legged monster suddenly appeared in the city of Broken Water, neither killing people and robbing money nor eating people and meat, but rushed into the alley to snatch the beggar's clothes, many of the already fragile tattered clothes were torn in the beggar's struggle, and finally after successfully snatching away two "intact" torn clothes, it disappeared into the night in a hurry, and this morning there was a group of shirtless beggars at the entrance of the yamen wailing and shouting grievances.

The third thing was that Generalissimo Cao Yuanpeng, who was supposed to be in the camp of Xiyue Broken Mountain, suddenly appeared in Broken Water City in the middle of the night. Stopped at the gate of Broken Water City, did not move for a long time, and then did not enter the city, but turned around and disappeared again in an instant.

Wu Chi carried Wang Lin on his back to the edge of the teahouse with the most family, put down Wang Lin, and then walked in front of him and knelt on the ground again.

"Grandparents, parents, brothers and sisters, take pity on our two brothers, give some money to pass away, I haven't eaten anything for three days and three nights, I don't care, but my poor brother can't wait, and he is still sick, but there is no money to treat him, he is paralyzed, and there are few days to live, please give me some money to buy him some food." Woo woo, my hard-working brother!" Wu Chi knelt on the ground, his hands weakly supporting the ground, and tears broke down as he spoke, and in the end he could even say that he was crying.

Wang Lin was lying on the ground because of his physical weakness, looking at Wu Chi's profound acting skills in a daze, he was already dumbfounded, his mouth was open, and it was difficult to close for a long time, and this stunned expression invisibly added drama to Wu Chi's performance, making the onlookers not only believe that Wang Lin was a paralyzed, but also a fool.

Many people on the street and in the teahouse heard Wu Chi's tragic and pitiful story. Many young boys and girls couldn't help it, and came over one after another and threw a few pennies into the broken bowl that Wu Chi put in front of him.

Wu Chi kept thanking these kind-hearted people who gave money, his head banged, and he quietly turned his head from time to time, looking at Wang Lin with very embarrassed eyes, as if he was showing his invincible way of making money in front of Wang Lin, and then turned around and changed into a pitiful appearance, and shouted in the street.

Although Wang Lin was paralyzed all over, his thoughts were clear, and he responded to Wu Chi who came over with disdain early. Wu Chi, it's shameless not to lose.

"Brother, there's a big brother over there begging for his brother! Can we give him some money?" said a cute little girl dressed very richly about ten years old to a graceful and graceful young boy beside her.

"Our little Xue'er has the best heart, this is fifty taels of silver tickets, take it to those two people. The handsome young man took out a silver ticket and handed it to the little hand of the cute girl.

The girl called Xiao Xue'er by her brother took the silver ticket and jumped up and walked towards the two young men who were lying and kneeling next to the teahouse.

"Thank you, this master!" Wu Chi wiped his tears, and was thanking a wealthy middle-aged man who walked by, he had just given Wu Chi a copper plate, and at this moment, a timid, slightly childish and nervous voice sounded in Wu Chi's ears, "That... That, I have some money here, you go and see your brother, I guess this money should be enough, na, give it to you" The little girl handed over the fifty taels of silver tickets to Wu Chi, and then looked back at her brother.

I saw that the dignified man looked at his sister and nodded, showing a smile as warm as the sun, the girl seemed to be flattered, and the child forgot about the two young men around her, and then returned to her brother, only the girl who was half the height of the man grabbed her brother's belt, and said coquettishly: "Brother bought me a sugar gourd, Xiao Xue'er wants to eat it." Let's go. With that, the brother and sister took the big hand and walked to the next street.

Wu Chi stayed there, looking at the fifty taels of silver tickets in his hand, his hands trembling. "Mother, what a good person you have met! Fifty taels, in the past, it took me and Master half a year to get it" Wu Chi shed two lines of tears on his cheeks, but this time it was tears of excitement. Lying behind him, Wang Lin didn't look at Wu Chi's reaction, just looked at the pair of brothers and sisters who had disappeared, and silently remembered the two of them in his heart, Wang Lin felt that if he had the opportunity to meet again, he must apologize for Wu Chi's deception first, and if the other party forgives, then he must make friends. A teenager who lives in a border town with frequent wars cherishes every good person he meets.

I don't know how many times Wu Chi knocked his head, time flies, it is evening, the sun is setting, and many people who go out of the stall have already closed their stalls and gone home for dinner.

Wang Lin rested for a day and a night, although his whole body was still very sore, but he could already lift his hands and feet slightly, Wu Chi clicked a little bit of the copper plate in the broken bowl, and naturally muttered to himself: "I begged grandpa to tell grandma all day, there are many people who give money, but the total is less than half a tael of silver, sure enough, this Xixia Prefecture is poor" and took out the fifty taels of silver tickets from under the soles of his shoes, and continued with bright eyes: "Looking at the outfit of that brother and sister, it must be the son of a big family in Zhongzhou." It is worthy of us Zhongzhou people, that is, there is money!"

Wang Lin looked at Wu Chi with disdain, "Shameless, this money is the hard-earned money of the people." ”

"You don't understand this, just take that little girl with a generous hand, at first glance, she is the daughter of a big family, innocent, her family must have taught her early to have good thoughts, we are beggars," Wu Chi said and proudly fiddled with his tattered clothes, "You should accept it gratefully, otherwise where will the little girl have the opportunity to be kind!"

Wu Chi then said as a matter of course: "Besides, although the three sects do not have enough control over this Xixia Prefecture, and none of them are dominant, but Cao Yuanpeng, who guards this Xixia Prefecture, is a great Arhat of Buddhism, and his reputation is so sufficient, most of the ordinary people in Xixia Prefecture believe that charity will bring good luck to their families, so they give us money is actually a kind of business, just buy peace of mind." ”

"I can't tell you, but I know it's not right, and we could have found other ways to make money. Wang Lin said helplessly.

"Big brother, you are a paralyzed person, and I am an aspiring Taoist priest with internal injuries, neither can I do physical work, and you and I are not those celebrities of Confucianism, you can go to the homes of those romantic celebrities, and report your name and title to borrow money. Begging is the most suitable job. Don't be so demanding, look at how many kowtows Lao Tzu has today, look, it's all red, isn't this physical work?"
