Zhang Lian's body turned into a streamer and fell into a hidden alley, coupled with the shrouding of the night, even if the lights were bright, no one noticed that a person fell from the sky.

After the divine sense spread out and investigated, after making sure that no one noticed him, Zhang Lian walked out of the alley leisurely, since he was entering the world to practice, he had to be like an ordinary person, and he couldn't let others see the cultivation spell, causing an unnecessary sensation.

When he came to the side of the road and stood under the street lamp, Zhang Lian became uncomfortable, and the pedestrians who came and went looked at him with very strange eyes, after all, it is still very rare to wear a simple navy blue robe and dress up in a bun in the city.

Zhang Lian was uncomfortable to look at, so he simply looked at his nose and nose, ignored people's sights, and thought about how to live in the city.

"Big brother, are you cosplaying?"

A little girl like a porcelain doll stood in front of Zhang Lian, asked in a milky voice, biting her fingers and raising her head, her big flickering eyes full of curiosity.

Zhang Lian couldn't understand what the little girl meant, but looking at the little girl's innocent appearance and clean eyes, he couldn't help but feel happy, so he took out a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to the little girl.

"Well, I'll give you something to eat. Zhang Lian didn't know how to answer her, so he expressed his friendliness in this way.

Smelling the sweet smell, the little girl subconsciously swallowed her saliva, this is the osmanthus cake cooked by the osmanthus and Qingquan on Longhu Mountain, but it is not comparable to the dim sum made of various additives in the city.

The girl couldn't help the temptation, took it and took a bite, her big eyes suddenly lit up, she swallowed the osmanthus cake in two or three bites, licked her lips, stretched out her little hand to Zhang Lian coquettishly, and asked hopefully, "Is there anything else?"

Seeing that the little girl liked to eat, Zhang Lian was very happy, so he took out an oily paper bag, which was full of a bag of osmanthus cake, so on the side of the road, two figures, one big and one small, sat on the curb stone, and you and I ate happily.

Suddenly, a woman rushed over in a hurry and grabbed the little girl, "Niuniu, you child, scared your mother to death, you know, I'll settle the account, why did you come here!"

The little girl licked her mouth, looked at the oiled paper bag in Zhang Lian's hand, looked up at the woman again, and asked weakly: "Mom, big brother's dim sum is delicious, can you buy it for me in the future?"

The woman originally stared at Zhang Lian with a defensive face, but when she saw Zhang Lian's harmless appearance and a kind of dusty temperament that could not be concealed, she knew that he was not a bad person, so she was relieved.

Although Zhang Lian's dress is very rare in the city, she can also see that Zhang Lian is wearing a Taoist robe, so she said slightly apologetically: "This little ...... Master, I'm really sorry that the child is so young and ignorant that I'm causing you trouble. ”

Zhang Lian hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome." "The first time I was called Master, I felt a little weird, but I didn't know what to say, I looked at the woman and the little girl, and smiled stupidly with a little restraint.

The little girl just stared at the oil paper bag in Zhang Lian's hand, looking greedy, the woman pulled the little girl and blamed: "How did your mother teach you, how can you eat other people's things casually, it's rude." ”

Zhang Lian also noticed the little girl's gaze, so he stuffed the oil paper bag into the little girl's hand, and the woman hurriedly said: "Niu Niu can't ask for other people's things, hurry up and return it to my brother!" But the little girl hugged the oil paper bag tightly, as if she was holding a baby, and she didn't let go at all.

The woman was a little angry when she saw this, and her raised hand was about to fall on the little girl's buttocks, the little girl's eyes were already full of tears, and she was about to fall, Zhang Lian hurriedly protected the little girl: "Don't worry, the snacks made at home are not valuable, give them to Niuniu!"

The woman looked at Zhang Lian very apologetically, then took out a stack of red tickets from her bag, and said with a sincere face: "The child is so naughty, if I don't meet the little master, I don't know where she is going, I don't know how to thank you, this money is not a tribute, and please accept it." ”

After speaking, he stuffed the money into Zhang Lian's hand, then bowed slightly, and pulled the little girl into a very high-end car next to him.

Zhang Lian hadn't reacted yet, he didn't know why the woman wanted to give him money for a few pastries, but he looked at the car that had gone away, looked down at the money in his hand, and smiled helplessly.

I secretly said in my heart: "Is this the most cheesy thing in the world?" But he also understood that to live in this world, it was impossible to live without this vulgar thing.

Zhang Lian walked aimlessly along the road, looking at the scenery of the city, and actually missed the tranquility on Longhu Mountain.

At this time, he suddenly realized something, leaving Longhu Mountain to enter the world to practice, and now he is already a vulgar body, and he can no longer wear a Taoist robe, just the eyes of pedestrians on the road make him very uncomfortable.

It just so happened that he looked up and saw the words department store written on a building next to him, touched the wad of banknotes in his pocket, and walked in.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Lian was dumbfounded, one shop after another in the huge shopping mall was close together, and there was a dazzling array of goods in it that he had never seen before, and there was an escalator in the middle that spiraled to the upper floor.

Zhang Lian was very surprised, he didn't expect that life in the city was so convenient, and he didn't have to climb the stairs by himself, unlike Longhu Mountain, which was thousands of miles high, but there was only a bluestone paved step path, and it took at least three or four hours to walk up and down the mountain.

Zhang Lian stepped on the escalator, and after a while, he found a store that sold clothes, so he chose a dress to change, a long-sleeved shirt, a pair of slacks, and a pair of casual shoes, Zhang Lian thought to himself, it is still such a dress that is comfortable to wear, much lighter than a robe, with a wave of his hand, the changed robe actually disappeared out of thin air, Zhang Lian walked towards the cash register in new clothes.

But after settling the account, he was dumbfounded, looking at the only three banknotes left in his hand, he couldn't help but smack his tongue: "Obediently knock, are these few pieces of fabric so expensive, how can you live in the future." ”

Walking out of the mall, Zhang Lian felt the pressure for the first time in twenty years, let him have a heavenly cultivation, but if he didn't have money, he wouldn't even be able to eat.

At present, there is a pressing problem, he has no place to live, he can't sleep on the street, what's even more embarrassing, and after he found a few hotels, he found that if he wants to live in this city, he also needs an ID card, and he doesn't have an ID card, he seems to be called a ...... in people's mouths Black ......

Zhang Lian wanted to cry without tears, did he just want to return to Longhu Mountain to continue to be a Taoist priest, then he had to be scolded to death by the master, quickly eliminated this idea from his mind, there will always be a way, he secretly cheered himself up in his heart.

Unconsciously came to an overpass, looking at the cars coming and going under the bridge, Zhang Lian sighed and sat on the ground against the railing.

I don't know how long later, a person came to sit next to Zhang Lian, Zhang Lian turned his head and saw an unkempt middle-aged man, his clothes were also dirty, and his body exuded a sour smell.

This person didn't feel the consciousness of others at all, and said to Zhang Lian with a grin: "Young man, it seems that life has encountered ups and downs." ”

Zhang Lian sighed and didn't speak.

The man continued: "Look at the point, how can life not encounter some storms, brother, I was also in the limelight, driving a luxury car and living in a luxury house, and women are all revolving around me, although I am now mixed into this bear, but one day I will be developed." ”

The middle-aged man chattered, but Zhang Lian didn't interrupt him, compared to this person, he was obviously much luckier.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man threw a broken iron can to Zhang Lian, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "No matter how hard it is, life has to go on, let's mess with my brother to ensure that you have something to eat." ”

Zhang Lian looked at the tattered tin can in front of him without tears, and shouted in despair: "Master, don't you tell me that you can marry a daughter-in-law when you go down the mountain, why do you want to eat!"
