Chapter 331 Chance Encounter
Chapter 331 Chance Encounter
After seeing the prosperity of West City, Xuanfeng, who left the Chen family, naturally did not want to stay in East City, a place dominated by migrant workers.
Moreover, if I continue to stay in Dongcheng, then what's the point of leaving the Chen family?
Therefore, after saying goodbye to Chen Qing, Xuanfeng went straight to Xicheng.
However, in Xicheng, the consumption in the central area, mainly around the fifth district of the Concession, is too high. The three thousand yuan that Xuanfeng brought is not enough here at all.
Therefore, he could only settle for the second best and move to other areas in Xicheng where the consumption level was not so exaggerated.
There are thirty districts in "Huhai", nine of which are in East City and twenty-one in West City.
Among the twenty-one districts of the West City, the five districts closest to the river, the most central, and the most prosperous were lent by the Ning Dynasty royal family to the Liege Empire, the Lika Empire, and the Lanxi Empire in the western continent during the Ning Dynasty.
The remaining sixteen relatively marginal districts still belong to the central area.
But except for the districts close to the concessions and along the river, such as Jiabei, Jiangwan, Yinxiang, Pengpu, Yinhang and Wusong, other districts are actually not that prosperous.
Some districts are not even as prosperous as the dock, port and bridge areas in East City.
The Dachang District where Xuanfeng came is one of the least prosperous districts in Xicheng.
Dachang District is next to Jiangwan District and Pengpu District, but because it is not close to the fifth concession district and is separated from the "Hongjiang" by several districts, it has basically not developed.
The people living here are all locals who rely on the sea, and the main source of income for most of these locals is to partition the old houses and then rent them out to office workers working in the prosperous area of Xicheng at a higher rent than in Dongcheng.
Because there are many young people who want to work in Xicheng, and Dachang District is only one district away from prosperous central areas such as Jiangwan and Pengpu, there is no need to worry about rent.
Xuanfeng searched for several days before he found a house built on the rooftop that was relatively inexpensive and had plenty of space for activities.
Apart from the need to climb very high floors, there are basically no disadvantages.
And for him, climbing stairs is not a disadvantage.
After settling down here temporarily, he began to go to prosperous areas such as Jiangwan, Pengpu and Jiabei every day to look for opportunities.
As a master of "divine transformation" and one who has practiced kung fu to the extreme of ordinary people, it is not difficult for Xuanfeng to find a job.
But the mistake was that Chen Qing had taken him to enjoy a period of time when they went to the Paramount every night.
Having enjoyed a life of luxury and decadence, and having real strength, he is not satisfied with ordinary job opportunities.
What he wanted was an opportunity that would allow him to soar to the sky!
With his ability and the 3,000 yuan start-up capital, he shouldn't have ended up like this in less than a month.
But as luck would have it, his keen five senses as a master of "divine transformation" allowed him to smell a hint of blood on the road one night last week, and he also discovered something unusual from various clues.
So he followed these clues and the smell of blood, and finally found the unconscious figure with the broken arm in front of him in an abandoned garbage dump in the Dachang area.
From the marks revealed on the other party's body, such as the development of muscle groups, the wounds on the broken arms, the long breathing and so on, Xuanfeng judged that the other party was a master of "fine transformation" and "divine transformation". He thought he had finally encountered an opportunity, so he rescued the man.
After he spent all the remaining two thousand yuan on medicine, bandages and other things, and then used the medical skills he had learned to treat the other person, he realized that the other person did not have a penny, but the amount of cash was indeed pitifully small.
The most important thing is that after the other party woke up, he seemed to have fallen into autism and confusion. He couldn't fart for several days and had no idea of the other party's identity.
This made Xuanfeng extremely conflicted for a while.
In order to treat the other party, he spent all his money. He decided to drive the other party away. Not to mention what the result would be if he did so, considering the other party's current condition. If he died accidentally, would it cause trouble for him?
Even without considering these, the money he spent was wasted!
But if he doesn't give up, he will be unable to continue.
The other party didn't say a word for several days. Not only could he not wait for the other party's payment, but he couldn't even get his capital back!
Under the sunk cost effect, he had no choice but to continue.
But fortunately, after a few days of isolation, this person finally gave him a simple reply.
Just when he thought he would be rewarded for his good deed soon, today's incident happened!
Thinking of this, Xuanfeng looked at the unconscious figure with the broken arm on the bed, and he was still a little angry.
But in the end, with no other choice, he had no choice but to go back.
"Ugh……"
After letting out a sigh, Xuan Feng stepped forward and carefully helped the broken-armed figure on the bed again...
……
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding~"
In the kitchen of the villa, the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding could be heard continuously.
Liu Yilin changed out of her protective suit and put on a dress. She stood at the kitchen door and looked at Chen Qing who was eating the food prepared by the chef in the kitchen at a whirlwind. For a moment, she was afraid to go in.
"If you're not full later, you won't eat me, will you?"
Liu Yilin thought of what Yue Suchun had said before, about ancient generals who would eat people. Then, when she saw Chen Qing in the kitchen swallowing up the chicken, duck, and fish without even spitting out the bones, and chewing them up directly, she became even more frightened.
At this time, it was already past eight or almost nine o'clock in the evening.
After completing the first "Qi training", Yue Suchun left early because of Kamiizumi Seiji's matter.
Now only Liu Yilin and Chen Qing are left in the villa, along with a group of bodyguards.
After coming up from underground, Chen Qing asked Liu Yilin to ask the chef to make him something to eat.
And now, Chen Qing is eating the food prepared by the chef.
Suddenly, Chen Qing, who was eating and drinking voraciously, stopped and turned to look at Liu Yilin at the kitchen door.
Liu Yilin was startled and quickly stepped back, saying, "Brother, if you are still not full, I will ask the chef to come and make another meal for you. Don't eat me!"
"..."
Chen Qing couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this and said, "My stomach is full."
"Oh, you're full."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yilin patted his chest with relief.
Unexpectedly, Chen Qing shook his head and said, "No, my stomach is full."
This immediately made Liu Yilin's heart tighten again. She trembled and said, "Brother, I don't understand what you are saying. Are you crazy with hunger..."
She did not understand.
What do you mean by not full? It’s just that your stomach can’t hold more!
She knew all these words, but when they were put together she couldn't understand them at all.
Chen Qing found it difficult to explain for a moment.
If he hadn't experienced this kind of thing himself, it would be difficult for him to understand.
He had eaten so much that his stomach could no longer hold any more.
However, the "feeling of hunger" still lingered around him.
It's hard to describe, but that's the feeling.
"Forget it, you don't have to understand."
Chen Qing looked at Liu Yilin, shook his head and said, "That's all for today. I'm leaving. Come back when your equipment is repaired." Liu Yilin understood what he said, and she immediately waved and said, "Goodbye, Senior Brother. I won't see you off."
Chen Qing rolled his eyes at her again, then walked out of the kitchen and headed straight towards the front door of the villa...
After leaving Liu Yilin's house, Chen Qing hailed a rickshaw on Yongyuan Road and headed towards the "Hongjiang" Bund.
By the time the rickshaw took him to the "Hongjiang" Bund, it was already a little after nine o'clock in the evening.
For West City, this time is when the nightlife just begins.
But for those migrant workers in Dongcheng on the other side of the river, it is already late at night and time for them to go to bed.
Looking at the East City on the other side of the river, except for street lamps and some scattered spots of light, the lights in most houses have been turned off.
However, at the ferry crossing on the Bund of "Hongjiang", there are still people coming or leaving by boat.
Chen Qing walked through the crowd and took a random ferry back to East City.
More than twenty minutes later.
The ferry gradually approached the "Sanyang" ferry.
Chen Qing also came out from the awning to the bow, ready to get off the boat.
But soon, a figure at the "Sanyang" ferry attracted Chen Qing's attention.
It was a figure that had just gotten off a ferry.
The figure was carrying a door panel on his back, and on the door panel, a person was lying with ropes tied to him.
The boatman lifted the door panel and helped the man to the shore. The man kept half-bending and carrying the door panel on his back. He tilted his head to thank the boatman and said, "Boatman, thank you so much. Although my brother has a hard life and is born with a disability, I have met good people along the way."
"Alas, we are all poor people, and it is only natural for us to help others when we are out and about."
After hearing this, the boatman sighed repeatedly.
The "Sanyang" ferry side is not like the "Hongjiang" Bund ferry side, where there are lights on the river bank.
In Dongcheng, there are basically no street lights except on the main roads.
At night, the "Sanyang" ferry is basically lit by moonlight, the oil lamps on the boatman's boat, and the torches or flashlights brought by the passengers passing by.
But recently, because it is close to the Reunion Festival, the moonlight is very bright.
With his sensitive hearing, Chen Qing heard the sound of conversation at the ferry terminal carried by the river breeze.
Suddenly, he felt that the voice sounded familiar.
But under the influence of "hunger", he was unable to concentrate and think deeply for a while, which made him unable to remember who it was.
Subconsciously, his eyes were looking at the figure who was carrying the door panel, facing the river bank, with his back to the river.
Under the bright moonlight, he saw the figure tied to the door panel.
The figure was wrapped in a bed sheet like a mummy, and then his legs, waist and neck were tied with ropes.
However, this figure seemed to be "asleep" at this moment, with his eyes closed, head tilted, and leaning weakly to one side.
Although the moonlight did not illuminate the man's appearance as clearly as in daylight, the general outline of his face was clearly visible.
"Why does it feel a little familiar..."
Looking at the facial features of this figure, Chen Qing, who was standing at the bow, frowned slightly.
The voice sounded familiar too.
The facial features of the figure on the door panel also look somewhat familiar.
Faced with such a coincidence, Chen Qing had to suppress his "hunger" and concentrate himself to think carefully.
suddenly!
He was stunned.
"No way...how could these two people meet each other?!"
After thinking carefully and attentively, he finally remembered who the familiar voice was!
Xuanfeng!
At the same time, his mind was also thinking about who the familiar figure on the door panel was.
However, since he had only seen it once, he wasn't very sure.
But with a reference object, his eyes subconsciously looked at the right hand of the figure tied to the door panel.
When he saw that although the figure was wrapped in a bed sheet, but the bed sheet on the right arm was obviously flatter than the left arm, Chen Qing frowned slightly and finally confirmed his guess.
Just as he was looking at the two figures on the river bank, suddenly, the figure carrying the door panel turned around as if he sensed something and looked towards him.
The next second, the figure stood up joyfully, waved towards Chen Qing and shouted, "Brother Bing! Here, here! Great! I didn't expect to meet you here!"
"I forgot that this guy's eyesight and sensing abilities are better than mine."
Hearing Xuanfeng's shout, Chen Qing narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xuanfeng is a master of "divine transformation". The sensitivity of his five senses and keenness of vision are much stronger than him who has not yet achieved "divine transformation".
Under the influence of "hunger", he did not maintain a state of visualization and looked over, so it was normal for the other party to sense it.
However, it seems that the situation of the "Jueying" on the door panel is not optimistic.
The other party was a great master who had mastered the "Three Huas Transformation". Unexpectedly, he had no reaction despite being watched by people around him and with emotional eyes. It was obvious that he was seriously injured.
Come to think of it, although broken limbs will not kill you if the bleeding is stopped in time, they are definitely considered serious injuries!
With the current social development process in this world, the medical skills, level and conditions of roadside clinics are all limited. After so many days, the only reason he survived was thanks to "Jueying"'s own strength and vitality!
If it were an ordinary person, I don’t know how many times I would have died.
Without responding to Xuan Feng, Chen Qing just quietly waited for the ferry he was on to dock. After paying the fare and getting on shore, he came to Xuan Feng and said, "Let's go up first."
As he spoke, he stretched out a hand and lifted the edge of the door panel that Xuanfeng was standing behind.
With his current [Energy] value of over 30 and his strong physique, Xuanfeng could no longer feel the weight of the door panel and the "Jueying" on the door with just a slight lift.
Although he has trained his physique to the limit of an ordinary person and can carry it, he will feel tired after a long time.
After Chen Qing lifted it like this, he suddenly felt much more relaxed!
"it is good."
Xuanfeng also sensed something unusual from Chen Qing's few words.
He didn't say much. After responding, the two of them went up to Kowloon Avenue from the "Sanyang" ferry.
Then, the two of them walked along Kowloon Avenue towards "Sanlin".
At this time, the time came to half past nine in the evening.
There are basically no lights on in the houses along Kowloon Avenue.
After the two of them reached a deserted section of the road, Chen Qing said, "Let's just put him down first, and then tell me what happened."
