Dongxuan Kingdom Hagi City.

The dilapidated street at the gate of the North City is a special feature of Hagi City. It is not only a slum, but also a place of joy. Beggars, gangsters, thieves, daughters-in-law, gamblers and other low-level people in the city gather here.

Duan Xu nestled at the corner, staring at everything rotten here.

Hagi Castle, it rained heavily yesterday.

The damp, damp and cold environment stimulated his old wound, which was swollen and painful. The wound festered and oozes, dripping everywhere, making it extremely disgusting.

But these are not the most deadly.

Hunger - is the most vicious killer.

Duan Xu nestled, like a half-dead mouse in a stinking ditch, lingering on his last breath.

*

Duan Xu is 22 years old this year. He is in the prime of his life. He has excellent bones and a very high talent in martial arts.

He lay on the ground and licked the traces left by the rain, looking at the hustle and bustle of the street with a pair of dull eyes.

It was a long time ago that he was hungry, but it was a pity that he was too lazy to speak up for himself, and he was too lazy to hope for it.

This is the "Street of Wicked People", and no one will be kind enough to help.

He was thinking decadently, thinking about the way he was rotting and dead.

At this moment, a faint smell of meat wafted over from the street.

The scent drove his stomach to move unconsciously, and this subconscious reaction made him frustrated and ashamed.

Duan Xu suddenly cursed in a low voice, the words were so weak that he couldn't hear clearly.

So hungry, really hungry.

If he couldn't chew, he might have swallowed the torn clothes on his body. In fact, he had already gnawed all the grass in the corner. As for the beggars guarding the garbage dump, this broken body couldn't beat it. I didn't even have the strength to fight.

As he thought, the breath was getting closer and closer.

Duan Xu's stomach started to make loud noises, he was very hungry, and he was eager to eat, this reaction made him want to cry suddenly in embarrassment.

Being framed, he didn't cry;

He didn't cry when his cultivation base was abolished;

Wandering so far, he did not cry.

But now, he really wanted to cry.

A feeling of grievance and shame arises spontaneously.

No matter how proud he was in the past, he still fell on the ground after all, defeated by the most primitive instinct.

His eyes were red and he looked up with difficulty.

A thin figure over there walked slowly towards him from the street.

The other party was a very young man with a pale face and a very indifferent brow.

His ink-like long hair was tied high, and he was wearing a black robe. The workmanship of the clothes was very simple, but the temperament was outstanding. He probably belonged to a young master of some aristocratic family.

Duan Xu looked at him, feeling a little dazed, wondering if he remembered the past.

But when he saw that person getting closer, he quickly lowered his head to hide his inexplicable indignation.

He humbly, jealously and resentfully said: Go away!go!go!

But what he didn't expect was that the man was not in a hurry, and finally stopped in front of him.

Even if the cultivation base is gone, the ear power of the past is still there.

Staring at the hem of the clothes embroidered with unknown characters, Duan Xu bumped into a pair of dark eyes just as he raised his head.

Hiss, it's so cold, as deep as ice.

"Take it."

Duan Xu subconsciously took the steamed stuffed bun that flashed in front of his eyes.

His palm was very hot, and he stared at it blankly, as if he didn't react.

A childish voice sounded from around the corner.

"that……"

Duan Xu raised his eyes and looked over there, there stood a little beggar in ragged clothes, staring straight at the young man in black robe beside him.

The latter asked, "Do you want it too?"

His voice was cold and flat, sounding like a very easy-going person.

Duan Xu actually knew that little beggar. When it was raining yesterday, he saw this little ghost and some big beggars robbing others.

Thinking of this, he quickly reminded the other party: "Don't pay attention to him! This kid is not a good person, you go away."

The little beggar didn't seem to expect that Duan Xu would dare to meddle in his own business in person, his eyes were gloomy for a moment, but returned to normal the next second.

He timidly ran over to pick up the steamed stuffed bun given by Mr. Heipao, his eyes were very shy, and then he ran away without saying a word, very fast.

Looking at the child's back, Duan Xu suddenly became a little depressed: "He wants to call someone, you should go, the farther you can get away from the ruined street, the better."

Been in a daze for so long.

Today, finally made a decision.

Compared with the embarrassment of whether I can fill my stomach.

Death may be his best destination now.

Feeling the warm touch in the palm, Duan Xu felt that it would be good to help someone before death.

It's just that he thought so, but the black-robed young man didn't care at all.

Duan Xu waited for a while, but he couldn't help but looked up before the other party answered.

The young man also gave him the last bun in his hand.

Duan Xu watched suspiciously, before he had time to say anything, the runaway child ran back, saying that something happened to his family, and stretched out his hand to pull the black-robed young man to help.

This set of movements was as proficient as flowing clouds and flowing water, and he was about to pull the man away, he didn't know where he got the strength from his brain, and grabbed the young man's other hand.

"He lied, don't believe it!"

The little beggar glared at him viciously, and said in a sticky voice, "Brother, I didn't lie to you, this is a liar."

Beat it down?Duan Xu opened his mouth but didn't say anything, the black-robed young man pulled out his hand: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Those words were light, but very soothing.

Duan Xu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't hold back, and the other party disappeared across the street with the little beggar in a leisurely manner.

Come on, it's hard to persuade the damn ghost, don't listen to others, I care about you, do you love it to death?

He silently rolled his eyes, looking like he didn't want to bother and meddle, but the next second he wolfed down the two buns, then propped himself up against the wall, panicked, and limped over there rush to.

Good words are hard to persuade, damn it--fuck you, damn it!

During the time when his cultivation was abolished, he was lying on the ground like mud, his dignity was already shattered.

But people are still a little different after all, Duan Xu doesn't know what he is obsessed with now, or what he is chasing after, he just wants to go there, as if he can find some lost things when he gets there.

He staggered all the way, fell and got up again.

For a moment, he forgot that he was no longer a martial arts master.

"what!!!"

There was a scream in the alley.

The distance was a little far, he couldn't hear clearly, so he could only grit his teeth and fight back the pain in his body, and rushed there desperately. When he finally arrived at the place, he was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him.

A man lying on the floor screaming ouch, the black-robed young man who he thought would be bullied was standing among the "dead corpses", with a shivering little beggar beside him.

Duan Xu heard the man whisper: "Don't do this in the future."

As soon as the words fell, the little beggar turned his head and ran away, not knowing whether he listened or not.

"you……"

Duan Xu stopped speaking, obviously he guessed wrong, this man is a master, although his body is so slender, he is indeed a master, but his breath is restrained like an ordinary person, I am afraid that few people in the world can do it , It's terrifying to have such skill at such a young age.

The other party turned around, his deep eyes swept over him, and Duan Xu's back was chilled from the cold.

"You are seriously injured." The man looked at him and said.

Duan Xu didn't answer this question, he looked left and right, as if avoiding something, then slightly bent down to the man: "... Baozi... Thank you."

"It's okay, what's your name?"

When Duan Xu heard the other party ask his name, his eyes suddenly flashed with a struggle: "Duan Xu."

Anyone who has been in the rivers and lakes for a while will definitely have heard of this name. Of course, that is not a good thing, but his stigma has reached the point where everyone knows it.

The black-robed young man said indifferently: "It's a pleasure to meet you." His expression didn't change at all.

Duan Xu took a deep breath: "Dare to ask the young master's name?"

"Jiangmu."

Jiang Mu?He recited it several times in his mind, but he still had no impression. This name had never been heard in Jiang Hu.

But did you hear it? It's not a big deal right now. He tremblingly clasped his fists at the man: "You must remember the kindness you have received today. If you don't die in the future, you will definitely repay the kindness to the young master."

He spoke very solemnly, as if he had really received some great favor.

Although Duan Xu felt that this repayment would probably have to wait until the next life.

Jiang Mu still looked at him, his eyes swept across his body, the chill was so cold that his scalp was numb.

Finally, the other party said: "Not another day, just today, I am short of manpower, you help me do chores."

Duan Xu's mind has been chaotic for many days, and he can't turn it around. He feels that he can't keep up with this young man's jumping thoughts.

"Can I?"

Jiang Mu circled around him twice: "It's true that you can't see people with your face, but it should be okay to tidy up."

As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and tapped his brow quickly.

Duan Xu couldn't dodge in time, he just felt that he couldn't move his body, and then his mind exploded, and his limbs began to stretch and relax. Before he had time to be happy, he heard the other party say something lightly.

"Do you want to restore your cultivation?"

think!Dream about it!

This was Duan Xu's real thought, so he just followed the person as soon as his mind became hot.

But when he came to a very shabby shop, full of dust and cobwebs, he admitted that he had a moment of sobriety.

"This is you?"

Jiang Mu took out a rusty key from his sleeve, and waved at him: "My new pharmacy, you can stay as a clerk."
