Chapter 48 Uncle!
"Stinky boy, if you run away again, I won't be polite with this knife...Huh?"

The middle-aged man came chasing him with a kitchen knife, and when he saw a man standing in front of the young man suddenly, he immediately expressed displeasure: "You, get out of the way, don't prevent me from dealing with him!"

"How many buns does he owe you?"

Li Qingmu asked calmly. He asked how many buns he owed rather than how much money he owed. If he asked about the money, the other party might open his mouth, but asking about buns... how many buns can a young man eat? ?Three or five are amazing!

Sure enough, the middle-aged man was a little confused when asked, subconsciously nodded and said: "Two..."

Li Qingmu took out ten copper coins and gave them to him: "This is my cousin, too noisy to cause trouble for you, this is bun money, and I will buy two more buns."

The market price of a steamed stuffed bun is around one penny, and for ten penny to buy four steamed stuffed buns, this big man has earned a lot.

Hearing that it was for business, the big man nodded subconsciously, and then went to get two buns, which were still wrapped in oiled paper, looking very attentive.

"Thank you!"

Li Qingmu took the bun and gave it to the young man.

"Oh, I was tricked!"

There was an annoyed voice from a big man in the distance, but the business has been settled, and it is difficult for him to find trouble again.

"Are you starving?"

Seeing the boy snatch the buns without saying a word and gobble them up, Li Qingmu couldn't help but shake his head, is this kid crazy from hunger?
Which son of a rich and powerful family didn't like it, and actually sneaked out?It's so embarrassing...

Li Qingmu judged that he was a powerful man rather than a wealthy family, that is, the inside of his clothes was embroidered with gold and silver threads, which can only be used by the rich and powerful, and it is taboo for ordinary people to use it. Lingnan.

The young man ignored Li Qingmu and just knelt down to eat by himself, but he ate too fast, choked and coughed violently.

There are black lines on Li Qingmu's forehead, is this kid really a son of a powerful family?It was too ugly, he had no choice but to ask the boss to have another bowl of noodles.

"It's better to eat with soup!"

The young man raised his head and glanced at Li Qingmu, then took the noodle soup unceremoniously and ate it.

The sound of "sucking and sucking" continued, and the little guy ate very quickly and quickly, and finished eating a bowl of noodle soup and two meat buns in a short while, the speed made people dumbfounded.

Li Qingmu couldn't help asking: "Have you eaten for a few days?"

"Three days."

The young man wiped the corners of his greasy mouth, looked up at him with his dirty little face, his eyes were black and bright, as bright as the starry sky.

Li Qingmu stared blankly for a while, then came back to his senses and said with a smile: "Hurry up and go home, if you encounter human traffickers when you go out, you will be in trouble."

"I've met it before, and I won't meet it a second time."

Uh……

It seems that this boy is also a tricky guy, probably because he is easy to talk, so many diners here come to him to call for help.

Oh, do I look like a bully?

He touched his chin subconsciously, only to realize that he had been traveling for days, slovenly, with a small tuft of beard scum growing on his chin.

Hey, no wonder the boy called him uncle just now.

"gone!"

He said lightly, took the package and left.

"Big cousin, you can't leave me alone!"

The young man followed closely, this title made Li Qingmu stagger and almost fell, who is your big cousin?

He turned around and said depressedly: "What are you following me for? I'm going to Ling'an City, didn't you come from there?"

The young man looked shocked, "You...how did you know that I came from Ling'an..."

This man actually told his story out loud, does he know who I am?
The young man was a little flustered, he didn't know whether he should follow, and then he noticed that there were a few burly men with malicious looks in their eyes... Could this be a human trafficker?

He was startled, and hurriedly ran away: "Big cousin, wait for me!"

……

Li Qingmu felt a little headache when he saw the little tail following behind him.

Making friends with powerful people is something that many people dream of. It should be a joy to be met by him, but he can't be happy.

Too much trouble!

This young man looks stupid and cute, but in fact he is very cunning. He wanted a young man to escape from the heavily guarded provincial capital of Ling'an, pass through mountains, rivers and dense forests, and then travel through several cities to come here, yet he was not caught. The trafficker abducted and ran away, which shows his vigilance.

Such a brat wants to follow him all the way... Li Qingmu is uncomfortable thinking about it.

"Big cousin, you won't ignore me, will you?"

Seeing that Li Qingmu was walking in a hurry, the young man looked like he wanted to dump him, but he was in a hurry. He came all the way very dangerously. He thought it was fun at first, but gradually he became tired. Now he wants to go home, but he can go back home. Home... Daddy won't beat me to death, will he?
Thinking about running away from home with a small burden on my back without saying a word, this... hey, daddy will definitely kill me!

"If you're safe, I'll take you home!"

The cold voice drifted over, which reassured the young man a lot.

"Also, don't call me big cousin!"

This address made Li Qingmu feel awkward.

The boy looked puzzled: "But you are my big cousin, you said it yourself!"

"..."

With black lines on Li Qingmu's face, he turned around and yelled at the back of the boy's head, "If I hadn't said that just now, would the big guy let you go so easily?"

"Oh—" the boy stuck out his tongue and made a face, "Then call your uncle, okay?"

"Um……"

Uncle, it's a little more pleasing to the ear, Li Qingmu doesn't know what kind of mentality he is in. Seeing that this young man always likes to let him call himself to the elders, maybe he thinks that this can clean him up?

"The next city is Ling'an. We will separate when we get to Ling'an. You go back to your own home. You should be familiar with Ling'an City."

"it is good!"

Hearing what Li Qingmu said, the young man secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked at Li Qingmu, his eyes were filled with gratitude. If it were someone else, he would definitely seek benefits from his parents, but he didn't.

"Uncle. Are you going to Ling'an to prepare for the imperial examination?"

"Ok!"

"Is Uncle doing his homework okay?"

"Uh... so-so!"

"Hey, aren't you bored? Doing homework is so annoying!"

"Is that why you ran away from home?"

"Yes!"

This was the daily life of Li Qingmu and the young man. After listening to his chirping and calling, they finally came to Ling'an City.

Ling'an is the provincial capital of Jiangling County. The city gate is majestic and majestic, towering and solemn. There are two stone lions squatting at the gate of the city, breathing fireballs, which is very powerful.

As soon as he entered the city gate, the young man saw a group of people coming from a distance, he quickly grabbed Li Qingmu's sleeve, and said pitifully: "Uncle, if someone comes later, you will say that I was abducted by human traffickers, and you sent me back. No?"

"Well, are you afraid of being beaten and scolded by your family?"

Li Qingmu's question was very tricky, which made the young man feel a little ashamed, and then he saw those people approaching, he threw off Li Qingmu's hand and ran away: "Help, help, this trafficker almost abducted me!"

"..." Li Qingmu.
