When the Great Dao Dies, I Remain; When Spiritual Energy Withers, I Endure

Two monks smashed the pawnshop clerk, robbed the money, and distributed the money to the onlookers, and then were chased by the police for three streets...

In an alley.

Zhao Qing pondered what had just happened, and his always serious face had a strange expression.

But it also became a little more lively.

It was the first time that he experienced such a strange thing.

But it seemed... a little interesting?

"Five hundred taels of silver."

"Then I will help with five hundred taels."

Li Chang smiled and patted the cloth bag on his body, which was heavy with five hundred taels.

He had never had so much silver.

"You knew that the pawnshop would lower the price early on, right? Why did you go to the pawnshop?" Zhao Qing asked.

"Well..." Li Changxiao said truthfully: "To beat them up."

He hated pawnshops.

The reason for this should be traced back to the exile of 30,000 miles.

When he arrived at his destination, his life became a problem, but he was smart and deposited some valuables in the dream space in advance.

He went to a pawnshop to pawn his item, but the price was pushed down to an extremely low level.

In a rage, he went to another pawnshop to pawn his item, but the price offered by the pawnshop clerk was still extremely low.

He went to all the pawnshops, and the price was lower than the other one, but he needed money, otherwise he would have a problem surviving, and in the end, the valuable item could only be pawned at a low price.

Later, he found out.

It turned out that the pawnshop not only lowered the price, but also marked the items.

Even if the marked items went to another pawnshop, the price would still be lowered.

All the pawnshops were of the same blood, and they specialized in harming the poor and short-of-money customers. No one was an exception, because this was the rule of the trade! It was an iron law that was hidden under the water, but was stronger than iron.

Li Changxiao was a person who would avenge his grudges, repay his favors, and pay his debts.

Normally, he didn't have any valuables. It was not good to just go into someone's shop and beat them up, right? That would be too domineering.

So, after learning that the hairpin was valuable, he immediately went to the pawnshop.

The whole thing was taken down.

Li Changxiao did not hide this history and told Zhao Qing.

Zhao Qing chuckled and said, "You are a cultivator, how can you care about others?"

Li Changxiao said that it can't be counted like this. He would feel guilty if he beat others for no reason, but beating the pawnshop would only make him feel happy. If there are valuables in the future, he will still go to the pawnshop to beat them up.

"By the way, you still left the hairpin there." Zhao Qing thought of something and felt that Li Changxiao was careless.

Li Changxiao smiled but didn't say anything, but for some reason, Zhao Qing felt a hint of insidiousness and cunning from his smile.

Get rid of the soldiers.

Li Changxiao walked into the fruit stall, bought a watermelon and a bag of melon seeds, and took Zhao Qing with him to the west side of the city.

Zhao Qing was curious, and his mentality had changed unconsciously.

From the beginning, when he walked into the restaurant to order food, he felt that this person was a waste of nature, but now he was curious about what he was going to do.

It took about an incense stick of time.

The destination was reached.

It was a private house with a high threshold and guarded by servants. It looked like they were quite wealthy.

"Zhou Mansion..."

"It looks like an ordinary residence. What are you doing here?"

Zhao Qing frowned.

Li Changxiao did not reply. He looked around and finally fixed his sight on a tall old tree a few meters away. He climbed up the branch, sat on it, and waved to Zhao Qing.

Zhao Qing spent some effort and climbed up the branch.

Li Changxiao unsheathed his Qingping and split the watermelon in half, handing one half to Zhao Qing.

"You don't have to come here to eat watermelon, right?" Zhao Qing said.

"Hush!"

Li Changxiao hushed, signaling to keep quiet, the show was about to begin.

That's it.

He sat on the branch, eating watermelon while waiting for the show to begin.

In the distance.

A group of people came in a mighty stream, and the servants carried several boxes of gifts.

It turned out that they were here to break off the engagement.

The son of the Zhou family who was broken off naturally refused, and in anger, the two families quarreled violently.

And all of this was seen clearly by two spectators not far away.

This farce lasted for half an hour. Seeing that it was difficult to stop the matter and no matter how the two families quarreled, it was difficult to reach a conclusion, so they invited the Qingtian Master.

With the entry of the Qingtian Master, the plot became more and more lively.

Later, it was revealed that the second son of the Zhou family embezzled the family money, the fourth son of the Zhou family had an affair with the eldest sister-in-law, and the woman who came to break off the engagement had an unruly private life and was unclear with several scholars.

The relationship between the two families was complicated.

At the beginning, Zhao Qing still had an indifferent attitude.

But the more she watched, the more the plot developed beyond her expectations.

Gradually, her attention was all invested in it, her eyes widened, trying to sort out the relationship between the two families.

She even substituted herself into it, if she were the Qingtian Master, how would she judge the case.

At the very end, the judge was so angry that he stamped his feet on the spot, shook his hands, and roared that he could not judge the case, and left angrily.

It is said that it is difficult for a judge to judge family affairs.

"Two thieves! So you are here!!"

The constable of the yamen also noticed the two people eating melons on the branches at this time.

He roared immediately.

He was determined to avenge the previous shame and arrest the two people.

Li Changxiao drank a mouthful of strong liquor and laughed.

This poor swordsman naturally chose to run away.

Zhao Qing found it strange that if she were hunted by officers and soldiers like this, she would immediately fight back. Even if she didn't use spiritual energy and didn't know martial arts, a dozen ordinary mortals would not be her match.

But at this moment.

Seeing Li Chang running away with a smile, she ran away too.

I couldn't help but murmur in my mind that this guy was willing to help him break through the deadlock, but he was always chased away by the officers and soldiers.

What a weirdo, with such a temperament, even in that era when the stars were shining, I'm afraid it was rare.

No wonder Nian'er...

...

Under the night, Li Changxiao lay on the grass.

Looking at the stars in the sky, my heart felt peaceful.

Zhao Qing sat down next to him and asked gently: "Have you always been like this?"

Li Changxiao unscrewed the stopper and took a sip of wine, "Yes."

Li Changxiao looked deeply and suddenly asked, "What about you? Zhao Qing is your pseudonym, right? I always feel that you should have been famous before. Your behavior reminds me of an old friend."

"Oh?" Zhao Qing was curious.

"She is also a woman." Li Changxiao said, "She also regards the great road as more important than anything else."

Zhao Qing knew that Li Changxiao was actually talking about Si Nian, but Si Nian's behavior was very similar to hers. It was for this reason that she accepted Si Nian as her disciple.

"The Dao is indeed more important than anything else." Zhao Qing tucked a few strands of hair behind his ears and laughed at himself, "But the Dao is hiding."
