Chapter 4 Encounter the Thunder Tiger Again
In front of a dilapidated hut stood a handsome young man, dressed in a cyan robe, his long hair fluttering in the wind, his eyes fixed on the partially collapsed hut in front of him.
This person is Xuanxing, and after he left the mountain, he first returned to the small village where he was born. Xuan Xing still has a lot of affection for this place, after all, he has lived here for several years, if it weren't for the villagers here giving him some food, maybe he would have starved to death.
Looking at the dilapidated appearance of his previous house, Xuan Xing sighed in his heart, he spent his childhood in this small dilapidated house.
More than ten years have passed, and this wooden house has long been broken and can no longer be broken. Anyway, I don't plan to stay here, and my return this time is just to end my own heart.
After going around the village, I found that everyone was still living a stable life as before, but I didn't see Lei Hu who bullied him when he was a child, and now Xuan Xing didn't hate him in his heart, but he still had a trace of gratitude, if it wasn't for Lei Hu who injured himself back then, maybe he hadn't recovered his memory now.
Since everyone is doing well, Xuanxing is not ready to stay longer.
Qing'an City, which is a town near Xuanxing.
At this time, Xuanxing was walking on this bustling street, listening to the shouts of roadside shops swinging on the beach, and his heart was quiet, he hadn't felt this atmosphere for a long time.
In his previous life, his parents were killed, and the three major sects continued to search for his traces, so Xuan Xing almost didn't dare to show his face in public, so he could only hide and practice alone.
"Shopkeeper Li, you have to give me a salary, why do you have to give me five taels of silver after I have worked for you for half a year?" Xuan Xing, who was walking, suddenly heard the angry words of a man in front of him.
"Lei Hu, don't forget that you borrowed five taels of silver from me last year, and your salary will be regarded as a debt repayment, and you will still have to pay for it, hum!" said the shopkeeper Li angrily.
"But I didn't say I wouldn't pay you back, others have two taels of silver here every month, so I'll earn more than a dozen taels of silver in half a year, I'm only asking you for five taels of silver now, isn't it too much?"
"Hmph, did I ask you to come in the first place, did I say I would pay you every month?"
Xuanxing's eyes lit up when he heard that shopkeeper Li call that person Lei Hu, could it be that person really the Lei Hu he knew?
Hurriedly stepped forward and looked at the man carefully, although more than ten years have passed, Lei Hu's appearance has changed a lot, but Xuan Xing can still recognize him.
Xuan Xing already understood what they said after listening to these words, and it was obvious that this shopkeeper Li was not going to pay Lei Hu any wages.
Lei Hu's face was red with anger now, panting heavily, and staring angrily at the shopkeeper Li.
The pedestrians on the street also looked at Lei Hu with sympathy, but no one went to persuade the shopkeeper Li.
Xuan Xing can't stand it anymore, and this Thunder Tiger can be regarded as helping himself. Under normal circumstances, people who cultivate the truth will not owe favors to others, because what favors they owe will be detrimental to their future cultivation, so they will try their best to pay off these emotional debts.
"This shopkeeper, you can't say this right, why do others have wages but he doesn't?
Lei Hu looked at Xuan Xing gratefully at this time, he didn't know the person in front of him, but people were helping him, how could he not be grateful.
At this time, Shopkeeper Li was stopped by Xuan Xing's words, did he admit that he just didn't want to give it?
"It's between us, you'd better leave it alone. Shopkeeper Li said angrily to Xuan Xing.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, this brother and I grew up playing with me, do you think I can leave it alone?" Xuan Xing said to the shopkeeper Li with a smile.
When Shopkeeper Li heard that they were acquaintances, he knew that this matter was a little troublesome today, but it was also a little troublesome, and there were a lot of thugs in his restaurant, and few people in Qing'an City dared not to give him face.
Lei Hu also looked at Xuan Xing in surprise at this time, he was sure that he had not seen the person in front of him, but he looked a little familiar carefully, but he still couldn't remember who this person was.
"Oh, so you have to take care of it, then don't blame me for being rude, Liu Quan, get these two people away for me. Shopkeeper Li directly ordered someone to blow the two away.
As soon as the onlookers heard what Shopkeeper Li said, they all ran away from the distance, as if this kind of thing was common to them.
Suddenly, more than a dozen people poured out of the restaurant, and each holding a wooden stick in his hand.
Xuan Xing frowned when he looked at the scene in front of him, the other party was obviously going to be hard, he was not afraid, the cultivation of the Jindan period would not care about some mortals at all, even if there were dozens more, it would be in vain.
What disgusted me was that this shopkeeper Li was obviously not a good thing, just look at what he had just done and the reactions of the people on the street.
"This brother, there are a lot of them, let's go, I don't want the silver, brother, you can't fight with them. Seeing Xuanxing standing there still, Lei Hu said to Xuanxing anxiously.
Xuan Xing looked at Lei Hu in surprise, at this time, Lei Hu seemed to have changed compared to when he was a child, and now he actually knows how to think about others.
"Lei Hu, we'll talk about it later, I'll send these people away first. Xuan Xing said to Lei Hu and walked directly to the group of thugs.
The thugs saw that Xuan Xing dared to deal with them alone, so they didn't care how much they bullied, and directly picked up their sticks and beckoned Xuan Xing.
Xuan Xing kept swimming between them, and from time to time he slapped a palm, as long as Xuan Xing came out of his palm, someone would fall to the ground, and in a moment, these people were knocked to the ground by Xuan Xing. Xuan Xing didn't use his true element, he just relied on his body method and relied on his own ** energy to fight them, otherwise these people would have died a long time ago.
Those people were convulsing on the ground in pain, and Shopkeeper Li looked at the thugs who fell to the ground and knew that he had encountered a hard idea today. "This little brother's skills are admired by Li, can the two of you go inside, let's have a good talk?"
Xuan Xing didn't want to pay attention to him anymore, but seeing that Lei Hu seemed to be very short of money, he might as well extort this Li shopkeeper for a sum, anyway, he didn't look like a good thing.
Lei Hu is very excited now, but he didn't expect that this person who helped him was still a master, and it seemed that he was expected to get his salary back.
The three of them entered the restaurant, and the shopkeeper Li personally led the two to a private room. poured tea for the two of them, and asked people to bring fruit to greet the two.
"Little brother, if you were offended just now, please don't take it to heart, as for Lei Hu's salary, it's easy to discuss. Shopkeeper Li said with a cheeky smile, after rolling in the red dust for so many years, he can still handle these things. But he met Xuanxing, although Xuanxing didn't go out much in his previous life, his experience is still not comparable to this shopkeeper Li.
"Shopkeeper Li, I don't want to talk nonsense with you, just be careful, what are you going to do?" Xuan Xing said directly.
"Anthracene...... This, I will send Lei Hu's salary to him, twelve taels, and the five taels that borrowed me will be forgotten, hehe, how about Lei Hu?"
Lei Hu's eyes lit up when he heard that he could take all twelve taels of silver, and now he felt that Shopkeeper Li was too cute, and he completely forgot what happened outside just now.
"Shopkeeper Li, is this a little less? My brother is not easy for him, if it weren't for me today, I think, he wouldn't get a penny, right?" When Lei Hu was hot-headed, Xuanxing's words sobered him up, yes, if it wasn't for Xuanxing today, I'm afraid he wouldn't get anything now, so he stared at Shopkeeper Li with that angry look again.
Shopkeeper Li was also uncomfortable when Xuan Xingyi said it, and what they said was right, "Hehe, two, what do you say you should do?"
"One thousand taels, one point less is not good. Xuanxing said lazily, and took a sip of tea lightly after speaking.
Shopkeeper Li was so angry in his heart, his small restaurant would earn five hundred taels of silver in a year, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked for one thousand taels!
"Hehe, brother, see if you can do less, it's not easy for me to trade this small book......"
"To give or not to give, to be direct, I don't have time to talk to you. Before the shopkeeper could finish speaking, Xuan Xing interrupted him, and also released some of his momentum.
Shopkeeper Li only felt that the person opposite was too terrible now, and he couldn't breathe smoothly in front of him. A good man doesn't eat the loss in front of him, he can earn it again when the silver is gone, but if his life is gone, he will have nothing.
"Okay, okay, a thousand taels, I'll get you a silver ticket." Shopkeeper Li hurriedly said.
After a while, he handed over the silver ticket to Xuan Xing.
The goal has been achieved, and Xuanxing called Lei Hu out of the restaurant.
"Lei Hu, you really don't remember me? I'm Xiaoxing. On the way, Xuanxing told Lei Hu.
"Xiaoxing...?You're Xiaoxing!" Lei Hu said in surprise. remembered that he often bullied Xiaoxing when he was a child, but he didn't expect that now Xiaoxing would help him in turn, Lei Hu was very ashamed.
After the conversation between them, Xuan Xing realized that Lei Hu moved to the city with his parents three years ago, but his father fell ill last year, and the family had no money to buy a house, so Lei Hu borrowed five taels of silver from the shopkeeper to treat his father first, but his father's condition still did not improve, so he went to the restaurant to do a small job, and there was the scene just now.
"You can use the money to treat your father's illness, and you can keep the rest for some business, I have something to do elsewhere." Xuan Xing handed all the silver tickets given by the shopkeeper Li to Lei Hu.
"Xiaoxing, how can this work, I can't ask for this money, you can take it back. Lei Hu resolutely refused to accept it.
"Lei Hu, I'm not short of money, but you need money, don't be polite to me, take it, otherwise I'll be angry." Xuan Xing said angrily.
Lei Hu also knew that Xuan Xing had been a stubborn person since he was a child, and it seemed that nothing had changed now, so he had to put it away. "Xiaoxing, this is a piece of jade pendant that I occasionally get, you can accept it, just keep it as a souvenir." Lei Hu took out a purple-red jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Xuan Xing.
Xuanxing knew that if he didn't want it, Lei Hu would definitely not want it, just as Lei Hu said, it was not bad to be a souvenir, so he put away the jade pendant.
Holding the jade pendant in his hand, Xuan Xing had an indescribable feeling in his heart, but he didn't find anything special when he looked at it carefully, maybe he felt wrong, so he didn't think about it anymore.
