The First Beastmaster of the Nine Realms

Chapter 54 Seniority Upgrade
Li Laishun avoided the injury on his palm, held a cold sesame pancake between his fingers, hooked a string of small fish two fingers wide, jumped off a small boat on the Lushui River, and rushed into Qingyi Street.

Li Laishun ran wildly all the way, passing Miss Hu who was selling flowers, Zhu's tea shop selling tea, and Aunt Gong who was selling vegetables, only to hear a pair of tattered straw sandals on the soles of his feet pattering against the chilly bricks and stones.

"Hey! Li Laishun!"

Aunt Gong stopped him and looked at him suspiciously.

"What have you been doing these two days? I used to quit work, and I felt as if I was going to live on the street every day. I was unwilling to leave. These two days. I watched you go into the alley every day after getting off the boat. I don’t see anyone, and it doesn’t look like I’ve found another good job, and I’m smiling like a blossoming flower.”

"Did you find the gold or the silver in that shabby house?"

Li Laishun had an adventure, but he didn't want to say anything, let alone this philistine and vicious old lady.I think he has worked as a helper for half a block of merchants, but this Gong Cui tried every means to deduct wages, deducting half a piece of Lingshi from him, and even scratched people when he was angry.

No one likes her, but she prefers to chat with people.

He rolled his eyes, pretending to be shy, and said: "Ah, Mrs. Gong! You don't know that there is a new oiran lady named Xiao Miaoxian in the Gongzhu Hall. She shows her face every night, and everyone rushes to see her. , if you don’t go early, you won’t get a good seat!”

This aunt's men are used to whoring, and when Li Laishun poked her sore foot, the aunt's expression changed: "Shameless, shameless, shameless little hooligan, don't learn well. Speech!"

Li Laishun was not angry, and ran away quickly.

Holding the pancakes that hadn't been blown through by the cold wind in one hand, he imagined that he would become a fairy in the future, with his mouth almost grinning to the bottom of his ears.

Turning around to Baini Lane, he jumped over the dirty water, bamboo baskets, and wooden boxes thrown on the ground by neighbors, and got into a hut at the end of the alley without a chain.

The house is all made of earthen walls, the inside is earthy, dark, and the air is turbid, making it very cramped.

A layer of cushions stuffed with reeds was spread on the straw in the corner of the wall, and a person lay on it, covered with a layer of cushions, and pressed a broken stool.

Fortunately, there was a yellow dog at the feet of the lying person.

It can be seen that in this small house with four walls, the most warm things are the two layers of cushions and the dog.

Li Laishun carefully touched it with the sesame pancakes, and was about to speak, but found that the person lying on the mat was already awake, with a pair of lifeless eyes open, but he was motionless.

Li Laishun rubbed his hands together and said, "Well, Grandma Immortal, are you okay? Are you free?"

Feeling too abrupt, he added rather painfully: "I brought pancakes and fish, and I'll give you both if you can leave me a bite."

The man sat up with support, his voice was very hoarse, and he said, "Give me some pancakes, and you can eat the rest."

Li Laishun was overjoyed, and hurriedly responded: "Hey, hey, okay."

After speaking, scooped water in the jar and boiled it.

After a while, the water boiled, and he quickly brought it to the man.

The water was boiled in the pot that his adoptive father used to boil the medicine. The smell of the medicine was so strong that it was no different from real medicine, but she drank it without frowning.

He brought this man back in the middle of the night two days ago.

At that time, he was so hungry that he couldn't sleep, and he ran out in the middle of the night to see who had leftovers thrown away at the door, and maybe he could pick up some secretly. He had just arrived at the entrance of the alley when he found someone lying on the ground.

The man was wearing a black suit, with bulging wrists, as if he was wearing a bracelet.

He could tell by the moonlight that her complexion was abnormally red, presumably she had a fever and passed out.

But judging by the material of her clothes, it was better than his tattered, unstitched linen.Maybe, there are spirit stones on his body.

Li Laishun was raised by his sick adoptive father like a free range, and he has experienced all the difficulties in the world, and he knows that the most difficult suffering in the world is poverty.As long as you can get the spirit stone, let alone steal it, if you grow up and have strength, you are willing to rob him.

Although he didn't really steal, but with such a great opportunity in front of him, what a hero he is if he doesn't know it!
Take half of her money and the bracelet as pawn.

Seeing the pitifulness of the girl on the ground, he thought about it again: as a reward, he would drag her to the end of the alley and give her a bowl of water to drink.Otherwise, it would just lie on the ground at the entrance of the alley without knowing anything, and when those dirty old bachelors in the alley found it in the morning, they would not know what to do.

Being mentally prepared, Li Laishun gulped down a mouthful of saliva, and stretched out his hand to reach out to the girl's hand wearing the bracelet.

It rained all day the day before, and this night the moon shines like a wash.

Facing the moonlight, Li Laishun only heard a sound of "Zeng", and a pale knife light flashed suddenly.

When the neck was cold and touched, it was full of blood.

Only then did he react, and looked at the man tremblingly, but first he saw the sharp knife tip a few inches away from his neck.

He didn't even see when the man brought out the knife—he was so nervous just now that he didn't even see the two short knives on the man's waist.

When he was a sophomore in a teahouse, he had heard storytelling, and knew that this was a meeting of a legendary capable man and stranger.Even a fairy.

The man didn't open his eyes, as if doubting that he was not dead, he flicked his wrist slightly, as if he wanted to continue to draw the knife.

Li Laishun hurriedly knelt down, holding a shred of hope that he would not be killed, and kowtowed desperately: "The immortal! The little one is a mortal! Just now, the little one is ignorant and wants to steal your things! Don't dare again! I wish I am a cow and a horse for the immortal, and I beg the immortal to spare my life!"

Pressing his head against the dirty bricks, he saw blood beads from his neck dripping into the cracks in the blue bricks.

After waiting for a while, the man didn't make a sound.

There was only a "clang" sound, and the knife fell to the ground.

fainted again.

Li Laishun thought about it for a long time, then he just gritted his teeth and didn't dare to make a move.

It was said that he was asking for wealth and danger, so he simply dragged her back home and waited on her for the time being, hoping that this person would wake up and do him some good.

If you can teach him some immortal spells and get rid of his mortal status, of course it would be the best!

Half an hour later, a dog came to the house, holding half a steamed bun from unknown where, and refused to let him touch it. It just stayed by the girl's side, it should be her fairy dog.

In order to claim credit when the time came, Li Laishun covered her with the only mattress in the house, and shivered most of the night.

When the man woke up, Li Laishun hurriedly paid him a big favor.

The man ate the steamed buns brought by the dog, drank three bowls of water he brought, and turned his head in his direction, only then did he realize that the man was blind.

The blind man's first words surprised him.

The blind man said, "Thank you."

Li Laishun was even more convinced that this guy was a fairy.How could an ordinary neighbor be so polite? He could count the number of times he heard this sentence in the past ten years.

Look, this is self-restraint!

The blind man said the second sentence: "Do you know Yuebin City, where blind people are recruited to work?"

"It's been three days since I've been here, and I've asked for all kinds of jobs, but no one wants them. I'm very short of spirit stones now."

You are missing, so am I!
Li Laishun, who was expecting a good salary, was discouraged, and said bluntly, "Yuebin City does not recruit disabled people."

The man's tone was quite puzzled: "Why?"

"All living beings reincarnate in the six realms. People who were born with disabilities were reincarnated as disabled after committing crimes in their previous lives."

"what?"

Seeing that the blind man didn't understand at all, Li Laishun spent a long time talking.

The man didn't interrupt, just listened carefully, and he seemed to have a good temper.From time to time, he frowned or asked questions.

Li Laishun looked at her, and after speaking, he became courageous again, his thoughts changed, his heart suddenly started beating wildly, and flatteringly said: "Little one saved your life, do you know if there is any reward for you?"

This was a help, far from being called "saving a life", but the blind man still responded with a good temper: "What do you want?"

"You have great supernatural powers. You look like a fairy in the legend. Can you teach the villain one or two tricks of immortality? I don't want to seek wealth and death, but to defend myself."

"I'm not a fairy, and I don't know how to use magic." The blind man responded quickly.

Think about it too.It is impossible for an immortal's immortality to be passed on to someone like him who has no serious background.

Li Laishun made fun of himself, smiled awkwardly, but heard her say: "However, if you want to learn the knife, I can teach you the basics."

Li Laishun's eyes lit up: "Thank you, Master Immortal! Thank you, Master Immortal!"

"Don't call me master"

Li Laishun changed his words even faster: "Thank you, Grandma Xianren, thank you Grandma Xianren!"

After hearing this, the blind man's expression twisted, but his lips pursed, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't refute anyway.

Li Laishun acquiesced to this title as a fairy.

　New spirit beasts are coming!
