Chapter Twenty-Four: Stealing Chickens and Touching Dogs (I)

In the city, in the courtyard where Lin Xuanqing, the young sect master of the Xingyue Sect, was located.

When she came back from her master, she changed into a white gauze skirt, which made her temperament nearly seven points similar to her master, that is, her strength had not gone up yet, otherwise, it was estimated that it would be another Mo Ruyue.

At this moment, Lin Xuanqing was strolling through the garden, today, from being peeped at to seeing the strength of Yipin Sword Cultivation to learning that she was going to go to the capital with her, this series of things was enough for her to think about it for a while.

Suddenly, she seemed to have stepped on something, frowned and looked down, but it was a money bag.

Bending down to pick it up and looking at it carefully, she didn't care how much silver was inside, and for her, it wasn't bad silver. Just looking at the word 'Su' sewn on the bag, it seems to think of something.

"Su...!The word 'Su' should be... The Su family in the capital!"

Lin Xuanqing tightened the money bag, this was something left by those two lewd thieves, with her character, sooner or later she would have to settle accounts with them in the future.

...

The three of them, who barely scraped together enough money to pay for the meal, walked out of the hotel under the cynicism of the shopkeeper, and they didn't have a good face for each other.

"Su Ruyu, Lao Tzu told you, the silver should be put here for me, with my cautious and life-loving character. Even if you throw your life in the Star Moon Sect, you can't throw your money anywhere!"

Speaking of silver, Jiang Ergou was angry, for the first time in his life, he had the opportunity to go to the rivers and lakes in style, but he was broken by Su Ruyu.

"What's the use of you saying this now? Do you think the silver is something I'm willing to lose? It's not you! Without saying a word, pull me and run, how can the silver not fall off with that level of bumps!"

"Well, I'm to blame at this time, if I hadn't dragged you running, your head would have moved. Can you still stand here and play tricks with me?"

On the side, the old man who had never said a word seemed to be a little unbearable, and the two of them kept arguing all the time, which made him upset.

"Okay! Now that I don't have any of this, why would I have gone earlier? If it were me, I would have thought about what I would have eaten for the next meal! Now, the three of us had no money left on our bodies. ”

"What can I do! Anyway, old man, aren't you a master, it's not difficult to fight a pheasant deer!"

Ergou mentioned money and food with a sad face, he had already experienced what it was like to be hungry without money, and now he really didn't want to experience it again.

"Pheasant, mountain deer, two dogs, it's good to polish your eyes a little, this is the hinterland of Lingzhou, not in the mountain stream and ditch before. If there were these things, it would be your turn to fight them, wouldn't they have been hunted and killed by the surrounding residents a long time ago!"

"Then what do you say! Although I just had a full meal in the store, this will last until tomorrow morning at most, if we can't find anything to eat in the back, I don't think we need to go to Qingzhou City, just go to the open space over there and dig three pits to lie inside and wait for death!"

"What are you talking about? Can a living person be suffocated to death by urine? Let's go, there's always a way!"

At the critical moment, it was the old man who stood up and made a conclusion. After finishing speaking, he ignored Jiang Ergou and Su Ruyu, who were still angry with each other, and took a step directly and walked in the direction of Qingzhou City!

Ergou and Su Ruyu stood in place, looked at each other hatefully several times, but didn't say anything, and in the end, the two of them followed the old man's footsteps almost at the same time.

...

The next day, the morning sun was really dazzling, but what woke up the three of them was not the uncomfortable sunshine, but the empty stomach.

"Old man, I'm hungry, what can I do! Don't you say there is a way to find something to eat!"

Ergou is an anxious person, so let's just say what he has, Su Ruyu over there can still maintain a little bit of the demeanor of a scholar, but looking at the way he keeps looking here, it is estimated that he is a little hungry and can't stand it.

After all, it was easy to get hungry when they went out to travel or something, plus the three of them only ate one meal yesterday, and camped in an open-air place all night, and the sudden drop in temperature at night also made the three of them consume a lot of physical strength.

"What are you anxious about! There are always solutions, but I haven't figured it out yet!"

"Old man, when you come up with a way, we will all starve to death, what's the use of your method!"

"You can think of it, you can even think of a way to break a big stone in my chest, why can't I do it now!"

The old man was also annoyed by Ergou's words, and said as if he was not hungry. Although my martial arts are okay, old man, I don't eat, and I'm still hungry!

"That's it! When I get to Qingzhou City, I will pawn my folding fan, this fan, even if it is in a pawnshop, should be worth some silver. ”

Su Ruyu felt that everyone was now three people with the same fate, and if they lost their money, they had a little responsibility, although they lost their own money. But I still didn't want to go a little in my heart, so I put forward the idea of being a fan.

When Ergou heard Su Ruyu's words, his dimmed eyes brightened, but then they dimmed again.

"Then we'll have to wait until we arrive in Qingzhou City! It's still half a month away from Qingzhou City! We all starved to death before we even reached Qingzhou City. I see, your fan should be kept for your burial, and maybe, in the future, your family will be able to find your grave and move you back according to this, and burn some paper money for me and the old man by the way!"

The three of them discussed for a long time and couldn't come up with any good ideas, so they had to hang their heads and continue on the road, it was impossible to dig a pit and bury themselves as Ergou said!

In the afternoon, the second dog was a little better, no matter how he practiced, although he was very hungry, he could barely bear it, and the old man seemed to have nothing to do, the most normal one.

Probably, the most uncomfortable is Su Ruyu, who grew up in a silver soup and golden spoon since she was a child, where has she suffered from this! Now she is so hungry that she is almost unhuman, and she no longer has the demeanor of a scholar.

"Ergou, I can't do it, I really can't walk! I think you better go with the old man! Take my folding fan too, go to Qingzhou City as a plate and go to the capital, tell my family, let them come and move my bones back. Also, tell my dad that this son of mine has let him down. ”

"What are you talking about, Su Ruyu! This person will starve to death without eating for many days, you just haven't been hungry since you were a child, and you are so hungry that you can't walk anymore, and when you really can't stand it, I'll grab a meal for you." ”

Then, Ergou helped Su Ruyu and walked for a while, and suddenly, a farmer family appeared in the eyes of the three of them, and Ergou's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

"Xiao Yuyu, if you hold on for a while, I have a way. ”

"What's the way, how to do it! I'll go too."

Hearing that she could find something to eat, Su Ruyu suddenly recovered a lot of physical strength, which can be regarded as Wangmei's thirst!

"Hahaha, I saw the farmer in front of me, this matter is in power, we have to go and get a little secretly. ”

"Ergou, this is not good!"

Su Ruyu still can't let go of the bearing of a scholar, just like the first time Ergou went to the Qinglou. I'm a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong, don't think of yourself as a scholar at this time, you are a Jianghu person. As a bastard, you don't need to care about these many details, but you have to remember how much you have taken, and when you have money in the future, you will have to pay it back to others a hundred times and a thousand times. ”

"It's... Ergou, like you said, what are we going to do!"

"Let's go, let's go over and see the situation first!"

Then, the three of them sneakily touched it, and soon came to the side of the farmhouse, and walked around the yard.

"It seems that this family should have gone to the field and not returned. Let's go in and get something to eat and go. Old man, you just stay outside to let the wind out, and run away with us at the critical moment. ”

Ergou quickly clarified the division of labor between the three of them, but he pitied the old man, obviously only second-grade masters and above deserve the ability to control the sky, but now, it has to be used to run away.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ergou and Su Ruyu climbed in with their hands and feet.

Not to mention anything else, there are quite enough things in the yard. There is a vegetable garden that is not small, and there is a chicken coop with a dozen or twenty chickens. There is also a white and fat little fat pig in the pigsty, which shows that this family has paid a lot of attention to this little fat pig.

The second dog rushed to the chicken coop and drove all the chickens out, and saw more than a dozen eggs scattered around.

Outside, Su Ruyu was attacking the chickens that were driven out by Ergou, but probably because she had never done this kind of rough work, she was busy for a while, and she couldn't catch a chicken. Instead, he was played around by a group of hens.

"Xiao Yuyu, don't touch those chickens! That's someone's laying hens! Don't take one! Go to the vegetable garden over there, pull more radishes and pick some cucumbers or something, that's the staple food." ”

Ergou glanced back at Su Ruyu, who was catching chickens, and told him, Su Ruyu heard Ergou's words, his eyes lingered on those chickens for a while, and then turned around and went to the vegetable garden.

After the second dog saw Su Ruyu go to the vegetable garden, he also bent down to pick up the eggs on the ground and carefully put them in his arms.

Stealing this time. Forehead... No, in the eyes of Ergou, this is not stealing, this is borrowing!

After taking their things, the three of them ran a long way non-stop, for fear of being caught by the farmers who suddenly returned home, and by the time they stopped, it was already dark.

...

At night, in an unknown forest in Lingzhou, three people were munching on a few eggs and a bunch of radishes and cucumbers. Looking at the fragrant appearance, I don't know, I thought they were eating the Manchu and Han full banquets!

"Ergou, it's really you! You're still smart, if I run out alone, I'm sure I'll starve to death. ”

Su Ruyu said while dealing with a half-baked radish.

"Hahaha, that's natural, but, Xiao Yuyu, just like I told you before, in the future, if you have a chance, you must remember this favor. These are all things that must be returned! This is also the rule of the rivers and lakes. ”

"Mmmmmmmmmm ”

Su Ruyu, who was chewing a mouthful of radish, replied inarticulately.

The old man on the side also felt a little relieved when he heard these words, and finally did not bother to cultivate these two little teenagers in vain. In them, he can see the righteousness of the rivers and lakes that he has not seen for a long time, just like him and another person when he was young.

Just when Su Ruyu finished gnawing on a radish and was about to go and take down the next one, he was slapped by Ergou with his outstretched hand.

"Okay, it's almost full, we still have to eat for a few days?

Hearing Ergou's words, Su Ruyu felt that there was a great truth in this, so she withdrew her hand in a daze.
