Longevity begins with Orion

Li Yuan knocked on the door a few times, then did not continue, but waited patiently.

He stepped back slightly and took the opportunity to look at the house in Baiyun Lane of Yinxi Fang.

It doesn't have any sense of high-end, it's just an ordinary house with black tiles and white walls, a bit plain.

The ground was pitted with dirt, and there was no flooring.

The alley is not spacious and even a little cramped.

However, the houses seemed a bit densely packed together. After walking out the door and taking two steps to the side, you arrived at your neighbor's house.

However, such an ordinary residential area is already a mid-range residential area in Yinxifang.

Like the manager yesterday, he still lives in a wooden shed, which is worse than Xiaomofang. The only good thing is that he can walk on the main road of Yinxifang not far away, which is convenient for shopping.

Li Yuan was just thinking when he suddenly heard a small "creak" sound.

But the door on the side opened.

He turned his head slightly and saw a pretty girl with rouge and pink yawning walking out of the next door.

With "0~1" floating on her side, the girl glanced at him arrogantly, then walked away without looking again.

This left Li Yuan in a daze.

Could it be that the girl saw right away that he was a country bumpkin who didn't belong here?

However, after seeing the girl walking outside, combined with some scenes he saw while lying on the railing of Tianxiangfang last night, Li Yuan was sure that the security here was indeed better than that of Xiaomofang.

She is still walking out dressed so beautifully, and there are ordinary people wandering the streets in the middle of the night. The security here is already many times better than that of Xiaomofang.

After a while, someone opened the door of the room where Li Yuan was waiting.

The person who opened the door was a strange woman dressed as a maid. She looked quite pretty.

The maid glanced at Li Yuan and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Li Yuan handed over the breakfast box from Yichan Pavilion and said with a smile: "My name is Li Yuan. I am here to see Brother Cai Ze and Cai. Please inform me."

The maid glanced at the breakfast box, stepped forward to take it, and said politely: "Wait a moment, the master hasn't gotten up yet."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "There's no rush."

After a long time, a young man who had changed into a government uniform came out. When he saw Li Yuan standing at the door, he smiled and said, "Brother Li, here you go, sit inside."

Li Yuandao: "Yuan knows that Brother Cai has many affairs during the day, so he doesn't dare to bother him too much. He just collected the money and came to submit it."

As he spoke, he took out two prepared small bags. One bag contained 10 taels of small silver ingots, and the other bag contained 5 silver beans.

Cai Ze took the two bags, looked at them, and said with satisfaction: "Did you get it all together so quickly?"

Li Yuandao: "I went into the mountains and forests yesterday and fought to death. I was lucky and caught a wild boar. I just sold it for some money."

Cai Ze nodded and said: "Brother Li is a capable and up-to-date person. Cai will help you handle this matter within five days. After five days, you come to me to get the residence permit."

"Thank you, Brother Cai!" Li Yuan saluted sincerely, and then said, "If Brother Cai has no instructions, I won't bother you anymore."

After Li Yuan's operation, 30 taels of silver became 7 taels.

He felt bad, but these were all money that should be spent.

If this is omitted and the matter is not completed, it will be regrettable.

Back at Xiaomofang, Yan Yu looked at his man's red eyes and the smell of alcohol and rouge. He said nothing and silently boiled water, helped him bathe, and then let him go to bed to sleep for a while.

Just when Yan Yu was about to do the laundry, his wrist was suddenly grabbed.

Lady Yan looked back.

Li Yuanzheng held her hand.

The two looked at each other, and Li Yuandao said: "Sister Yan, I have not slept with other women."

"Yes." Lady Yan smiled happily. It was clear that winter had not passed yet, but spring seemed to have appeared in her bright and shining apricot eyes.

After a short silence, Mrs. Yan said coquettishly: "You have spent money and still don't sleep. How can you be such a stupid man?"

After saying that, the young lady seemed to be really happy. She took off her clothes, half-carried the wooden basin, and took Aunt Wang to the river to wash herself.

Li Yuan slept until dusk. After getting up, he had dinner and was ready to go out for a walk.

He walked to the courtyard and glanced at Xiaomo Mountain in the distance, feeling a little heavy in his heart.

He went hunting in the mountains two days ago and didn't see Xiao Huang.

You know, in the past, Xiao Huang would follow the scent to find him.

Even if he was in Xiao Mo Fang, Xiao Huang would still find his way down the mountain road quietly.

But it's been so long, and Xiao Huang hasn't appeared.

Li Yuan sighed deeply when he remembered that Xiao Huang tried his best to prevent him from moving forward and gave him a timely warning to turn around and run away.

This is a favor owed to a beast.

As for returning to the mountains to find Xiao Huang, forget it.

He would never go to the inaccessible mountains and forests again.

This is a lesson learned at the cost of half a life.

He walked for a while, and suddenly a middle-aged man walked out tremblingly in front of him.

When the middle-aged man saw Li Yuan, he hurriedly walked up to him and shouted: "Brother Yuan."

Li Yuan took a look, isn't this Uncle Cai?

Uncle Youcai is Tian Bao's father, what is he doing to come to me?

When Uncle Cai stepped forward, the grown man's eyes turned red, "Brother Yuan, A Bao won't let me talk to you, but I..."

"What's the matter, Uncle Cai?"

"A Bao was beaten so badly when he came back yesterday that one of his eyes was blinded. He is lying at home."

"What?!"

After a while.

Li Yuan came to Uncle Youcai's house.

Upstairs, the tall and thin young man's right eye was wrapped with a bandage, and there were blood marks on the bandage. When he saw Li Yuan coming, he glared at Uncle Youcai anxiously and yelled: "Who told you to tell Brother Yuan?" Yes! Who let?”

Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "What happened?"

Tian Bao immediately calmed down and said, "Brother, it's nothing."

"Didn't I say anything?"

"No. Brother, he was robbed by three people when he came back.

The three people asked me where the money from selling the wild boar was. I said I had deposited it in the bank. They looked for the receipt and couldn't find it, so they beat me up and I was blinded at that time.

But hey, one of those three people got scratched on the face by me, and it doesn’t feel good either.

They also asked me where you were and what your name was, but I didn’t say anything. I didn’t say anything. I would never betray Brother Yuan. "

Li Yuan's expression moved slightly.

Sure enough, as long as you have some benefits, you will be targeted.

That whole wild boar could be sold for a lot of money. No one in Xiaomofang was eyeing it, but someone from somewhere was eyeing it.

"Take good care of yourself."

Li Yuanguan looked after him, then turned back, took five kilograms of meat from home, and gave it to Uncle Youcai.

When he left, Tian Bao's voice came from behind.

"Brother Yuan, when I get better, I will follow you."

Li Yuan paused and said: "Recuperate first."

Two days later.

Li Yuan hunted a wild boar and pushed it out of the mountains on a cart with great effort.

He went to Hengwu Restaurant with ease, picked up 30 taels of silver, rested for a while, ate a bowl of noodles, and then pushed the cart back the same way.

The way he went back was not the official road, but a shortcut.

On one side of this trail is a yellow reed swamp, and on the other side is a small dark forest, with only a few houses in front and behind it.

Li Yuan asked clearly. This was also the path Tian Bao took a few days ago.

At this time, the sky was dark and the moon was waning.

The pale moonlight illuminates this road.

Li Yuan walked forward quickly.

Suddenly, he paused because he caught a glimpse of a figure walking out of the woods next to him.

Immediately afterwards, another one came out from the side and the back.

The face of the figure walking from the side was still red and there were some blood marks, as if he had been caught.

The man in front smiled and said: "Let me tell you, they will come again. They won't miss it this time."

The other two people laughed and said nothing.

Li Yuan looked at two "2~3" and one "3~4". He was startled and said in a panic: "Three of you, you guys"

The person in front said: "Spend some money to stay safe. We are bringing knives this time."

The man behind said: "If you run out of money, you can make more money, but you only have one life."

The man on the side didn't say anything, he just approached with a knife with a look of hatred.

The three of them got closer and closer.

Li Yuan shivered.

The man at the front walked up to Li Yuan and was about to threaten him.

Suddenly, Li Yuan took out the hatchet stuck in his waist with his right hand, and struck hard with it.

The man was stunned for a moment and hurriedly raised his knife to block it.

Bang! !

The raised knife was directly smashed open by the huge force.

There was only a "crash" sound, and the hatchet slashed off the head at an angle.

The two people on the side and behind were stunned. The person behind didn't see clearly and thought he was taking action, so he rushed towards him with a knife, but the person on the side was frightened and turned around and ran away.

Li Yuan chopped off his head, took another step forward, turned around to see the man behind him clearly, turned over and stepped forward, rushed out like an arrow, knocked away the man's knife with one strike, and then swung it out.

Another bloody head flew up.

Seeing that there was another person running away, Li Yuan inserted the knife into the mud, turned his left hand to grab the big bow behind his back, took the arrow with his right hand, and nocked it.

The bowstring is as tight as the full moon.

Bang!

As soon as the sound was heard, the fleeing man in the distance fell down, and an arrow penetrated the back of his neck and came out from his throat.

Li Yuan put back his bow, drew his hatchet, rushed forward and made a stabbing blow, cutting off the head from the neck to avoid showing the arrow wound.

Then, he quickly dragged the three corpses up one by one, put them into the prepared sacks, quickly filled them with some stones, tied the holes, then ran to the riverside, and threw them into the river from a distance away from the reeds.

After throwing them away, he threw three more knives into the river far away.

The river is not shallow. Once you enter the water, you won't be able to be discovered for a while.

After doing this, Li Yuan threw the cart on the road and quickly hid in the small forest next to him. After waiting for half an hour and seeing no one, he walked out again and returned with the cart.
