[Douluo x Jian Wang 3] The sun and moon remain the same

The results of the soul power test satisfied both Tang San and Lu Jiu. Tang San was satisfied that the soul power was actually level thirteen, but Lu Jiu was happy because he had money. Tang San smiled helplessly: "You should go back first." Lu Jiu turned his head strangely and looked at Tang San who stopped, asking with his eyes why.

"I promised Dad that I would find a place in Notting City to continue practicing blacksmithing." He turned to look at a shop on the left, and there was a tinkling, tinkling sound coming from inside. It was the blacksmith's shop. Lu Jiu raised his hand and patted his forehead, but he completely forgot about it.

When Tang Hao agreed to let Tang San come to the academy to study, he gave Tang San three requests. Lu Jiu was listening by the side. But after leaving Holy Soul Village, he completely forgot about Tang Hao's words. He knew that Tang San would definitely try his best to achieve whatever he promised.

[Then I’ll go back first. 】

"Be careful on the road." Tang San warned. Lu Jiu felt that Tang San was very much like an old lady. In his previous life, when he went to the oasis to play, there would always be an aunt with caring eyes who told him to be careful on the way back. There were horse thieves and so on.

After separating from Tang San, Lu Jiu took a long detour. He had not been in Notting City for a long time. The last time he left school was to get the soul ring with the master. At that time, he was feeling dizzy the whole way because he didn't sleep well at night. , just followed the master and Tang San blankly.

After finally going out today, he didn't want to go back to school directly. Lu Jiu used to like to visit Chang'an West Market and Yangzhou City. He originally wanted to go to Luoyang, but when he came to the Central Plains, Luoyang had already fallen and was no longer as prosperous as it once was.

Now he naturally wanted to take a good stroll in Notting City, but it was actually because Tang San was not here. Lu Jiu felt that Tang San had too many rules and regulations in his mind, and being so constrained was too tiring. He thought of sitting by the campfire with his brothers and sisters in the desert, dancing and barbecuing, and he really could never go back to the past.

Suddenly a loud noise pulled Lu Jiu out of his memories.

A woman's high-pitched voice came from the front: "If you dare to steal my things, I won't break your legs!" A middle-aged woman in an apron stood in front of a bakery with her waist in her hands. Waving a leather rope, he was still yelling: "You ungrateful thing."

Lu Jiu felt as if he had seen this scene before, and fragments of it flashed uncontrollably in his mind.

"You uneducated thing, is this how you study in school?!" A man with a red face, smelling of alcohol, was waving a belt in his hand, as if he was hitting the person kneeling on the ground with all his strength every time. .

"I spent money to support a thing like you!" The man cut off his belt, still angry, kicked the man, and then put out the still burning cigarette butt on the man's arm... …

"If we continue fighting like this, I'm afraid someone will die."

"This brat is always stealing things to eat. If he dies, he will die."

More and more people gathered around him, and they began to discuss each other. Lu Jiu suddenly came back to his senses. His back was already covered in cold sweat. He only heard someone in the crowd discussing again: "Ever since his mother died. It’s a pity that no one cares about it anymore…”

"What's such a pity? People like this used to steal food when they were young, but they might do something when they grow up."

Lu Jiu didn't want to care about this matter. It had nothing to do with him in the first place, but for some reason, his body involuntarily walked out and reached out to catch the leather rope that was swinging towards him.

When he saw the boy lying on the ground, his hair full of dirt, his tattered clothes, and his bruised skin, it was as if he saw the person in his memory who was beaten and huddled on the ground unable to get up, although he saw the person in his memory. Not sure what he looks like.

The owner of the bakery put his hands on his waist and yelled: "You're a little brat that came out of nowhere!" After she finished speaking, she realized that Lu Jiu was wearing the uniform of the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, and her arrogance suddenly dropped. , withdrew the hand holding the leather rope.

[Return the things to others, and I will take you to dinner. ] Lu Jiu handed the paper to the boy. Inside the paper bag the boy was holding was a small piece of bread that he had just stolen from the store. He looked at Lu Jiu with hesitation in his eyes. Lu Jiu took out the badge of Wuhun Palace, and the surrounding area suddenly became quiet.

The hesitation in the boy's eyes also faded a little, and he returned the paper bag to the bakery owner with shaking hands. The boss didn't dare to do anything when she saw the uniform of the Soul Master Academy. When she saw the logo of Wuhun Temple, she felt even more... I couldn't afford to offend ten thousand people, so I collected the paper bag and found the steps for myself: "Forget it this time, hum!" This humming obviously lacked confidence: "It's all gone! What are you looking at!"

The crowd of ordinary people who were watching were afraid of the power of Wuhun Palace and did not dare to say anything. They also did not dare to offend the hot-tempered bakery owner.

The crowd dispersed, and the boy stood there with his waist bent, his head almost hanging to his chest. Lu Jiu stood there without moving. He was still facing the bakery, with a dazzling array of breads in the window, which looked very delicious.

He took a deep breath and turned around to look at the boy who was stealing. The boy noticed that Lu Jiu turned to face him. The boy raised his head slightly and looked at Lu Jiu. Lu Jiu motioned for him to follow him.

The two of them walked in tandem, one clean and the other dirty, on the streets of Notting City. This strange combination made passersby look at them. Lu Jiu ignored these people's gaze. He took the boy to a noodle shop and ordered a bowl of noodles.

The waiter quickly brought a bowl of hot noodles. Lu Jiu pushed the noodles in front of the boy and let him eat.

The boy picked up the chopsticks, hugged the noodle bowl and almost put his head into the bowl. Lu Jiu looked away. He didn't want to see the boy crying while holding the noodle bowl and filling it with noodles.

Which is more terrible, hunger or cold?

Actually it's the same.

No matter which one it is, it will bring death.

But people can use all their strength and means to drive away hunger and cold,

But it can't drive away the despair of indifference.
