Chapter 133: Street Encounters
Luo Junan earned a little silver by relying on human sandbags. This amount of silver can be said to be insignificant compared to when he was in Huashan, but in the days of Luo Junan's wanderings, it was already a large amount of money. Luo Junan used some silver to let himself take a good bath in the bathhouse, and then bought himself a set of clothes. It had been a long time since he had worn clean clothes, and Luo Junan was more happy to wear them among a group of wandering and begging with him. Some of these eyes show envy, some show jealousy, and some show greedy eyes. This Luo Junan, who used to beg like him or even inferior to them, has now turned into a "rich man", some people are happy for him from the bottom of their hearts, and some express their happiness for him. Luo Junan has lived with them in the days of hardship these days, and he already has a deep affection for them in his heart. Luo Junan said that tonight, I will buy you a few roast chickens and a few pots of wine, and come together to have fun. Whether it is envy, jealousy or greed, today they can actually eat roast chicken and drink wine, it is a feast they haven't had for many years, and they are all very happy, saying that Luo Junan is really their good brother. Some people in the crowd said that Luo Junan's clothes were clean, and our group of beggars were dressed in tatters, and they smelled all over their bodies, and they asked for food in street restaurants on weekdays, and some restaurant owners not only did not give away the leftover food, but also did not even allow them to stand at the door, for fear of affecting the business of their restaurants. Luo Junan said so, I'll go to the restaurant to buy roast chicken and wine, we have a good drink here, no one cares about us, no one looks down on us, we can drink here all night. Okay, okay, everyone's echoing voices drove Luo Junan to the hotel one after another like a wave. Luo Junan bought a large bag of roast chicken and a few bottles of wine and rushed back to the ruined temple where he lived with other beggars. The temple had already been cleaned up before the ruin, and he was waiting for Luo Junan to carry the roast chicken and wine. They saw Luo Junan coming back from a distance, hugged Luo Junan one by one, took the roast chicken and wine from Luo Junan's hands and put them in the broken bowls or broken dishes that had been prepared on the grass. After a night of eating and drinking, the beggars lost their spirits during the day. Last night they ate one by one with swollen stomachs, and during the day they were full and sleepy, so they decided to have a good rest this morning and not go out to ask for food.
Luo Junan walked out of the ruined temple at about ten o'clock in the morning. Luo Junan slept early last night and was not very sleepy. It's okay to be idle, it's better to go to the city to make a human punching bag to make money, and buy some cheap but at least clean clothes for your beggar friends. When he arrived in the city, Luo Junan chose a place with many people, and started his own one-day human sandbag performance.
Lu Junliang led his disciples into Kaifeng City. The Kongtong faction is located in the Western Regions, with a sparse population and a backward economy. These people were very excited when they saw the bustling metropolis for the first time. Lu Junliang's original intention of coming to Kaifeng City was just to have a stroll, and he didn't take He Quandao's death and the pursuit of Luo Junan to heart at all. Right now, He Dudao has just died, and his disciples are still not convinced of him, in order to buy people's hearts, He Dudao said to all the disciples of the Kongtong Sect, our Kongtong Sect is located in the desolate Saibei, and many disciples of the Kongtong Sect, including you, have never seen such a prosperous metropolis. Now, in order to give you a time to rest, let you have a good walk in Kaifeng City today, and let you visit Kaifeng City during your rest. There were so many delicious foods, drinks, and fun in Kaifeng City, except for Guo Yuntian, that the other Kongtong Sect disciples were crazy, and they completely forgot about the death of their master or uncle for the time being.
A beggar walked up to Guo Yuntian and begged him for some alms. Guo Yuntian smelled the sour smell on the beggar's body, and said hurry up, get out of here. Although the beggar is used to hearing these abusive words and sentences, he still feels uncomfortable listening to them. The beggar said look at your appearance, your martial arts will not be very high, I have a brother, whose martial arts are much higher than yours, and he is kind and generous to others. Get out, Guo Yuntian pulled out his sword. The beggar was so frightened that he ran away.
A disciple of the Kongtong faction thought that the clothes he didn't put away were so special, so he bought a set of his own and put on the clothes of the Central Plains region to play. In a downtown area, he saw a group of people forming a circle, standing on their tiptoes and stretching their necks to look in. Whether it is a person from the Central Plains or the Western Regions, as long as he is Chinese, he has the nature of watching excitement in his bones. He was full of curiosity, what these people were looking at in a circle, and I went in to see what I was looking at. He relied on his martial arts to forcibly squeeze through the people who were blocking his way, and finally squeezed to the front of the crowd. A burly man with a big fist was slamming Luo Junan's body hard. He once fought Luo Junan at the foot of Mount Hua, but it was at night, and there were swords and swords everywhere, so he couldn't see Luo Junan's appearance clearly. Therefore, he didn't recognize that the person in front of him who was making human flesh sandbags was Luo Junan. His curiosity led him to ask the people around him why the two were fighting, and you all watched them fight one by one, and neither of them tried to persuade them. People around say, outsiders, you don't know, this person is voluntarily beaten. He felt even more strange why a person was voluntarily beaten, he asked the person next to him. The person next to him said that this person is now poor and forced by life, so he started to make a human flesh sandbag, and gave a penny for a punch, and not only did he not want money when he was defeated, but also gave the beater a tael of silver. The pie in the sky quickly spread throughout Kaifeng City. The able-bodied people in Kaifeng City came, some were curious, some wanted to earn silver, but no matter which one it was, no one had ever knocked him down. He looked at the big man in front of him, this person was physically strong, but it was only brute force. He is now a disciple of the Kongtong Sect, and he has been practicing martial arts for about ten years, although he is thin and small, he is much stronger than these big men in front of him. The big man sat on the ground panting. After fighting for a long time, he didn't knock Luo Junan down, but he sat on the ground tired. Luo Junan repeated the rules of making human flesh sandbags and asked if anyone else came to challenge. The silver of the white flowers on the ground is for the challengers. It is a good thing to be able to earn silver, with his martial arts, it is easy to knock down Luo Junan, he stepped forward and said I am willing to challenge. He stretched out a punch and struck Luo Junan. Luo Junan didn't move at all. Only then did he realize that he had underestimated Luo Junan, he used enough internal strength and put on a good posture, but Luo Junan still did not move. After these two blows, he knew that he was not Luo Junan's opponent, he took a step back, held his aching hand, and then let go, took out two pennies and handed them to Luo Junan, and left.
