Huang'an Town.

Indispensable liveliness, indispensable people.

The street was full of people from the morning with the small vendors shouting and selling their things.

Such a lively bazaar is naturally indispensable for people who want to eat and drink for nothing, and this person not only eats and drinks for nothing, but also drinks and eats a lot of food, and even others think that he will definitely not be able to eat for a while - a beggar.

Xiao Er has been staring at him since he came in, because he is ragged and smells all over his body, and people will deliberately avoid him wherever he goes.

How could such a person enter the famous "Fengyun Restaurant" in Huang'an Town?

Although the beggar is a beggar, he is not a poor beggar. He is very rich, but people only glance at the gold he holds in his hand, and the shopkeeper of Fengyun Restaurant naturally wants to take this big gold into his pocket, so it doesn't matter how smelly and dirty this person is, as long as he has money.

But he still found two miscellaneous men to keep an eye on him, for fear that he would run away on his debts.

The beggar asked for a table of good food and two jars of old wine.

The movement of his meal is not large, but just such a person is enough to attract people's attention, after all, it is really a novelty for beggars to enter the restaurant.

The beggar sat at a table on the second floor, from which he could see the pedestrians coming and going, but he seldom looked down, and many people pointed at him, but he didn't care at all.

The beggar was nibbling on a chicken leg, his mouth was full of hands, his hands were dirty, but he didn't mind sucking his fingers and licking all the oil and sauce off his hands.

The beggar burped, and the table was a mess, but there was not a single meal left, and some only ate the remaining bones, which were cleaner than the bones in the dog's mouth.

The two guys in the shop were strong and broad-shouldered, with horizontal eyebrows and cold eyes, dark skin, and thick arms.

The other man was much more clever and thin, but his eyes were purring and rolling, and he seemed to be a frequent pleaser with his customers.

When the two men saw that the beggar had almost eaten, they set up their shelves, for fear that the beggar would take the opportunity to slip away.

But the beggar did not slip away, but called them over, and they looked at each other and walked over.

The clever fellow spoke first, "Are you old enough to eat?"

"When you are full, you are full of wine. ”

The man saw that the two wine jars were empty, and thought to himself that this beggar could drink so much?

"Would you like another altar, then officer?" the shopkeeper had already instructed him - no matter how much wine and food he wanted, he would serve him, but the gold ingot must be in his hands.

"One altar? You dare to underestimate me, and I can drink ten more altars and eight altars!" the beggar scratched his teeth with his nails.

The clever guy thought that he had drunk too much, and was afraid that he would give birth to right and wrong, so it was the right thing to get the gold in his hands quickly, so he said: "Yes, yes, you have a lot of guest officer, so are you going to leave?"

"Why? I can't rest when I'm full, and you want to drive me away?"

"No, no, look at what you always say, how dare you go?"

The beggar glanced at the strong man standing next to the flamboyant guy, and snorted coldly: "I think you are afraid that I will not pay for the meal!"

The clever fellow's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Look, you're wrong again, how can you be so rich, how can you repay your debts?" ”

He touched his fellow brawny man with his elbow, but the stout man did not move, not even expression.

The beggar said, "I wanted to pay you, but now I can't give it to you." ”

The faces of the two guys changed slightly, becoming obvious but leaving room for them, and the clever guy said: "Guest officer, you can't laugh at it, our family has all the wine and food for you, and you are full of food and drink, why don't you give money?"

The beggar was very bland, and he didn't seem to notice that Xiao Er's words were there, and said: "It's not that I don't want to pay, it's just that I suddenly remembered that my money has other uses, so I can only grieve you, and when I come to your house for dinner again in the future, I will naturally make up for it." ”

The clever guy's face was bruised and purple with anger, and he slapped the table and said angrily: "Good guy! ”

The man who spoke little on the side was the tiger, he glared angrily, and his hands were stretched out in front of him, as if a tiger was about to pounce on food.

The guests also stopped their chopsticks and wine glasses to watch the excitement.

Tiger let out a low roar in his throat, and the clever guy had a villain grin.

The clever guy said: "You old name Hanako, if you want to eat and drink for nothing, pat your ass and leave, then spit out all the wine and rice for me!"

The beggar was not afraid, and plucked his ears and said, "Even if I vomit it, you can neither go back to the pot and redo it nor eat it in your mouth, so why should you let me vomit?"

Some of the guests were amused when they heard it, and some were disgusted.

The guy was so angry that his face turned white, "Okay, then take out the money and fuck off!"

"Why don't you understand? I'm not not going to give it, I'll give it next time!"

"We don't allow credit here!"

"That can't be helped. ”

"Why? Scared, I still obediently hand over the money, so as not to suffer some flesh and skin. ”

"No, I mean, since I can't help it, I'll have to walk away. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the beggar turn over and fall from the upper floor.

Everyone made a "yo-" sound, and they all left their seats and looked down with their heads on their stomachs.

The second floor of this Fengyun Building is more than two feet high from the ground, and no one thought that the beggar would be able to climb down.

The two men hurriedly went to look, but they couldn't find any trace of the beggar, and many people were babbling there-"Yo, I don't think the beggar is simple." "It's so high, it's definitely not an ordinary person. "Look at the table he eats, who can eat so much......?"

The guy could only scold and grit his teeth, but there was nothing else he could do.

The beggar rolled over and ran away. A beggar running wildly down the street would not attract the attention of others, and soon he flashed into a dark rumbling alley.

"Hmph, you want my gold? He took the gold he had taken out of his bosom and smiled triumphantly.

"Don't you think money is dirty?"

A voice came from the other end of the dark alley, and the beggar stopped, squinted at the figure, and then smiled: "Of course other people's money is dirty, but mine is clean." ”

The man said, "Could it be that your money is not someone else's?"

The beggar sighed and said, "Why are there so many stupid people in the world, I said it's my money, of course it's not someone else's." It was mine from the beginning, and I dug it out of the soil. Then I knocked it myself into an ingot. You see...... "the beggar took the gold and showed it to the man," and there was no official seal on it. ”

The man couldn't see it, but he didn't care either. The beggar put the gold in his bosom again, and straightened his rags.

The beggar said, "Are you also for my gold?"

"You say it's your gold, why do I want it?"

"Don't be right, I'm leaving. ”

"It's not my way either, you can go whatever you want. ”

The beggar stared at him, as if very suspicious. But he still walked to the other end of the alley.

Getting closer and closer.

He saw the man's appearance clearly, with a huge physique, but with the face of a white-faced scholar, as if the body and head were two people. It sounds funny, but if someone sees him, they won't laugh.

If ordinary people saw him, they would be frightened and weak.

The beggar was no ordinary man, and he walked over as if nothing had happened, as if the man had become transparent.

Although the beggar seemed to care about him indifferently, he had already looked at him, especially his hand, which was slender and fair, with clean and beautiful nails, completely different from the beggar's dirty hand.

And those hands are dangerous!

The beggar had just walked past him, and suddenly felt a strong palm wind coming from behind, and this palm would inevitably not die or be seriously injured, but the beggar's face did not change, and he just shook his body and dodged it.

Then he smiled and said, "Didn't you say I would go casually?

The man said, "I don't want your gold, but I want another thing from you." ”

"What?"

"Your head!"

In an instant, the man had already slapped ten palms at the beggar, but all of them were in vain.

The man let out a strange laugh, not only did he not feel discouraged, but he was very happy, "Sure enough, it's you, there are not many people in the rivers and lakes who can avoid my ten palms." ”

The beggar also smiled: "Wrong, there are many people who can avoid your ten slaps, but there are not many people who can avoid Qiao Lin Qiao Erlang's 'embroidered palm'." ”

A smile appeared on the man's white face, "How do you know that I am the Qiao Erlang you said?"

The beggar put his hands behind his back and said, "There are few handsome men in the world, and their thin hands are comparable to embroidery girls." The face of an eight-foot-tall scholar, Qiao Erlang in Yunmeng Pavilion. ”

The man laughed, "You know I hate this assessment the most." ”

"Don't like the poem?"

"Can this be considered poetry?"

The beggar stopped talking, and Qiao Lin stopped talking, and the two looked at each other silently.

The noise of the streets, the sound of cars and horses, neither of them seemed to be able to hear.

After a while, sweat broke out on Qiao Lin's face, and the beggar's breathing became a little shorter, but his face was still relaxed.

The two of them stood still and did not move, like two trees, long rooted in the ground, and like two swords, their edges intertwined, appearing and disappearing.

After a long time, the beggar seemed to be unable to support it, and staggered to the ground, panting for breath. Qiao Lin also leaned against the wall, as if he had just run thousands of miles in one go.

The beggar rested for a while and said, "I, I can't beat you, what do you want to do?"

Qiao Lin stabilized his body and slowly walked towards the beggar, who looked at him, but it was difficult to move half a step.

Qiao Lin said: "You naturally know what I want. ”

"Joke, you came to me, how do I know what you want. ”

"If you know me, you know why I'm looking for you. ”

The beggar suddenly laughed and said, "Looks like I have to hand it over?"

Qiao Lin bowed slightly: "Otherwise, it's okay to hand over your life!"

After saying that, Qiao Lin had already choked the beggar's neck with one hand, and no one would have thought that this slender hand would be so fast and powerful, although the beggar struggled but had no choice.

The beggar struggled to squeeze a few words out of his throat: "Kill me, you won't get anything." ”

When Qiao Lin heard this, he really let go of his hand, and the beggar lay on the ground coughing.

Qiao Lin said: "Look at you are also a former hero, I won't let you die too ugly, as long as you give me something, I will let you have a whole corpse." ”

The beggar snorted, "Do you want me to die?"

Suddenly, the beggar struck at Qiao Lin's lower abdomen, Qiao Lin flashed, dodging his move, who knew that the beggar had a second move, and spit out two silver needles from his mouth, and the silver needles were so small that they could not be detected by the naked eye.

These two needles were inserted into Qiao Lin's legs, and Qiao Lin suddenly became weak and fell to his knees.

Qiao Lin said angrily: "I didn't expect you to hurt people with a secret weapon, I really underestimated you." His eyes were not as gentle as before, but like a beast, as if he wanted to tear the beggar apart.

The beggar smiled: "In order to survive, I have also learned a lot. I don't kill you because I'm a good person. If you're going to kill me, come ahead. ”

The beggar turned his back and said, "But even if I die, it will never fall into your hands." ”

The beggar glanced back at Qiao Lin: "These two needles will soon be forced out by you, but you can't find me at that time." Go back and tell Nangong He that his days are coming to an end. ”

The beggar left with a smile, but Qiao Lin could only watch him leave slowly with hatred.

Late at night.

The beggar had nowhere to go, and he was so hungry that he lay down under a tree.

He has long been accustomed to this kind of day, using the earth as a bed and the sky as a quilt, but he can always find food on weekdays, but today he ......

He did eat a lot today, and usually this meal would allow him not to eat for a day, but today he met a troublesome person.

After competing with Qiao Lin, the physical exertion was very great, and the food disappeared from the stomach.

He originally wanted to leave Huang'an Town, but after thinking about it, he still planned to stay, after all, the most dangerous places are often the safest.

He thought that Qiao Lin must have rushed back to inform Nangong He at this time.

"Nangong He's days are coming to an end......" he muttered, smiling happily, leaving tears and sadness.

Suddenly, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps, and the beggar was on alert, at first he thought it was Qiao Lin, but then he saw that it was a passer-by in a hurry.

But it was already late at night, and it became strange that even ordinary people were in such a hurry at night.

The beggar thought, since it wasn't Qiao Lin, it wouldn't be much of a threat, so why not go and explore.

He suddenly appeared in front of the man, and the man was startled. At a second look, the man's lean face was dressed like a shopkeeper.

The little two said in a trembling voice: "In the middle of the night, are you a human or a ghost?"

The beggar said, "Have you ever seen a ghost?

Xiao Er took a closer look and saw that it was a beggar, and then took out a few copper coins from his bulging waist bag and gave them to the beggar. The beggar was disdainful, knocked off the copper coin with one hand and said, "This is dirty, I don't want it!"

Xiao Er said: "This is money, why don't you want it?"

The beggar snorted coldly: "This is poison, more poisonous than arsenic!"

Although Xiao Er thought the beggar was strange and funny, now he just wanted to quickly withdraw and leave, so that he could hide the money he had won from gambling, so he walked away without looking back.

The beggar looked at him for a while, patted his stomach, and suddenly said to himself: "Since he is the second shopkeeper, he must be back to a nearby restaurant inn, why don't you follow him to his store to find some food?"

So the beggar followed him, and on the way, Xiao Er turned his head several times, and the beggar flashed and hid in the shadow that Xiao Er couldn't see.

Xiao Er is going faster and faster, and he is following more and more.

After a while, I saw an inn with lights on. The beggar thought that he must not swagger in through the main entrance, so he climbed over the wall and went into the backyard. Sniffing his nose, he really found the kitchen. And he crept in.

It was pitch black in the kitchen, but he seemed to have eye for night vision, and he found some pots from the pot and chewed them secretly.

I found a few steamed buns in the steamer, although they were already a little hard, but some were better than nothing.

He peeled a green onion, ate the steamed bun, and ate it with a taste.

Then he heard movement in the doorway, so he crept over, held his breath, and looked out through the crack in the door.

There was a monk and a boy at the door, and the monk said something to the boy, and the boy went to the well and scooped up water and sprinkled the ground where he had been standing.

After a while, there was a golden light on the ground, but he couldn't see what it was, so the beggar slowly stood up and looked.

But the monk suddenly blocked his view and turned to himself, and the beggar thought that he had been discovered, and immediately fell to the ground in fright.

After a long time, when he looked again, there was only a boy and a young girl left, and the monk was gone.

The beggar wondered, what was that golden light? Could it be gold? He didn't care about money, but he cared about new and strange things.

"That monk, I think I've seen it somewhere. He muttered to himself.
