The master of the system wants money

Chapter 54 Poor Scholar 【2 more】

For the next five days, Tong Huan followed Pei Heng. In Anping City, after visiting here and there, he bought everything delicious, fun, and beautiful. After spending huge sums of money to buy a house, Tong Huan was speechless.

"Buy a house here, do you plan to come and live here often?" Speaking of which, the mission world in the system, can the inspector still come in and out at will?Didn't it mean that only the mission world where the host appears can the patrolman enter?

"Anyway, it's not expensive..." Pei Heng said innocently, not feeling that there was anything wrong with what he did.

This house is priced at 5 taels of silver, so goddamn cheap!It is good to have money, but it is shameful to waste it!

"Don't buy it!" Tong Huan was so angry that he wanted to punch someone, his fists were clenched, he gave the order through gritted teeth, and turned away.

Seeing him like this, of course Pei Heng can only be cowardly, who can't beat him with force!

However, why do you feel that Master Tong's angry appearance is so interesting?Being by Tong Huan's side was definitely the wisest choice in his life.

Tong Huan was too lazy to talk to Pei Heng, a money-spreading boy, and rushed into the busiest South Street in Anping City with a little breathlessness. Then, he saw the young man he had rescued when he first arrived in this world. He is holding a small calligraphy and painting booth, and is handing out letters written for others to customers. It seems that he is a poor scholar.

It's just that Tong Huan saw his appearance clearly, and saw him suddenly rushing out diagonally, and got into a tussle with some bastards. With the strength of this poor scholar... he was pushed to the ground and beaten in seconds. The old lady on the side, anxiously trying to stop her, was thrown by a bastard, and she was about to fall into the air. Tong Huan stepped forward without thinking, and helped the old lady before she fell to the ground.

"Aiyo...Aiyo...don't beat him, I'll give you the money...all of it..." The old woman was so anxious that she burst into tears, struggling and trying to stop her, but was pulled by Tong Huan I can't move a step at all.

"Grandma, you stay here, I'm going to persuade the fight." Tong Huan smiled and helped the old woman to sit beside the stone steps, talking about trying to persuade the fight, but...

"Apprentice, can you beat me up? I can't do it for my master." Tong Huan raised his chin at Pei Heng, who was watching the fun, and signaled him to step forward to try the water. After all, this is a brave act, and it has nothing to do with his mission.

Pei Heng's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he immediately rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward. With a straight punch, one person was sent flying in an instant, another kicked in the face, and the second one also screamed and flew out. There was only one left. Already stunned by the sudden turn of events, he grabbed the poor scholar by the collar, not knowing what to do next.

"Master, I can beat you." Two of them have already been beaten away, so I can't do it anymore!

"Then beat the other one out too, it's an eyesore." A 70-year-old old lady bullied her, and she couldn't stand it no matter what!Tong Huan lightly gave an order, and Pei Heng immediately executed it cheerfully, and punched the third bastard flying away with a ruthless punch.

Obviously, these three bastards should have been doing bad things on weekdays. When they flew out and fell to the ground and wailed, the onlookers took advantage of the chaos and kicked and kicked each other. When the son came back to his senses, he couldn't find which leg was attacking them.

"Hey, Xiao Li, why are you bothering? Isn't this causing trouble for yourself? You just..." The matter was resolved so quickly that people had no time to react. The old woman was stunned for a while before she recovered her senses Come on, hurry up and help the poor scholar up. Judging from the tone of the speech, the two are quite familiar.

"Mother-in-law, how can I watch you being bullied by them!" The poor scholar looked angry, wishing he could beat up those three bastards again, but he knew himself, so why would he ask for trouble again?So, wisely, he quickly sent the old woman home first, and then turned back to collect his small calligraphy and painting booth.

Tong Huan and Pei Heng had never been able to touch the missions of this world, and they were bored, so they followed the poor scholar, and they didn't see the poor scholar return until they watched him send the old woman home.

Seeing them, the poor scholar didn't speak, just stared at them silently, and then continued to walk forward, showing no intention of answering them at all, which caused Pei Heng to raise his eyebrows, and stretched out his hand to stop them.

"My master saved you, and didn't even say a word of thanks?" Pei Heng acted like an apprentice, and every word and deed was all about defending the master. When facing others, the aura of the master came naturally. Show it, very domineering.

"Thank you. I still have something to do, so I'll go first." The poor scholar obviously didn't want to get involved with them. Seeing his virtue, Pei Heng stopped him like a kitten and kept him from leaving. Seeing the situation, Tong Huan couldn't help but want to laugh a little. Finally, seeing that the poor scholar was really annoyed, he took two steps forward, grabbed Pei Heng by the collar, and pulled him back.

"You went to prison because of that old woman?" Otherwise, he really couldn't figure out what kind of crime such a poor scholar with no strength could do.Moreover, it was obvious that the old woman was a little secretive in her speech before, probably because she didn't want to cause trouble for the poor scholar.

In other words, he met this poor scholar once or twice, it shouldn't be...by chance, right?

The old woman was mentioned in Tong Huan's words, and now the poor scholar was finally willing to pay attention to him. He first looked around cautiously, then looked at Tong Huan, and then bowed down and saluted Tong Huan politely, "Under Li Qingyun, Thank you to the two young masters for your help, but... the young master is probably not a local, those three gangsters have the Jin family as their backing, you can't afford to provoke them, why don't you leave earlier, so as not to get into trouble."

Li Qingyun's persuasion was very sincere, but Tong Huan didn't take it seriously at all. On the contrary, there was a faint smile on his lips, "It's okay, they won't tell the matter."

"..." Li Qingyun was startled when he heard the words, then seemed to think of something, and pursed his lips lightly, "Like...that jailer?"

In fact, after he got out of the prison that day, he was also very anxious, afraid that he would be chased back before he ran home, but he had a sense of righteousness in his heart, and he did nothing wrong, just because After stopping those gangsters from bullying his mother-in-law, he was thrown into a prison, and almost even his mother's jade pendant was taken away. How could he be calm?

It's not fair, so what?In the face of power, he is a poor scholar, and all he has left is helplessness and unwillingness.

Li Qingyun hid at home for two days, making sure nothing happened before going out to set up a calligraphy and painting stall. The most important thing is... his family is too poor, there is no rice for cooking, and if he doesn't go out to make money, he probably won't even have the chance to get a job. If not, you will starve to death at home.

Suddenly meeting Tong Huan, a strange person, in Li Qingyun's heart, apart from being afraid and grateful, in fact, he was more envious, and even yearning. If he had Tong Huan's ability, wouldn't he be bullied everywhere? up?

"Yes, as long as I think about it, I have plenty of ways to make them forget everything." Tong Huan still smiled lightly, but Li Qingyun suddenly felt that most of the stuffiness in his chest had suddenly dissipated.

In just five days, they met twice. Is it a godsend?

"If the young master is not afraid of trouble, Qingyun is willing to become friends with the young master." Li Qingyun turned the corner, but he was very straightforward, and he took the initiative to make friends without ambiguity, which amused Tong Huan, and the smile on his lips obviously deepened .

"You're not stupid. You know my master is great. Let's go. Master and I are free anyway. Let's go to collect the stall with you." Pei Heng also felt that Li Qingyun, a poor scholar, was not annoying. Ah, so much better than those rigid nerds.

After speaking to Li Qingyun, Pei Heng winked at Tong Huan again, "Right, Master?"

Tong Huan gave him a cool sideways glance, didn't bother to talk to him, and walked forward side by side with Li Qingyun. After asking and answering, the two actually discussed calligraphy and painting techniques, which was quite speculative.

Back in the market again, the three of them saw someone guarding the small calligraphy and painting booth from a long distance away, when Li Qingyun saw that person, a smile appeared on his face, and he walked over quickly to say hello: "Zifeng, why are you here? Aren't you repairing paintings at Jin's house?"

When mentioning the Jin family, Li Qingyun's voice subconsciously became colder, but his enthusiasm for his friends did not cool down at all.

"Qingyun, I just came out to look for you. My aunt's house had an accident, and my mother asked me to accompany her back to her hometown. Can you finish this job of repairing books for me? Your painting skills are better than mine. I have already mentioned it to the stewards of the Jin Mansion, and they agreed, please, please do me this favor." Wu Zifeng clasped his hands together and pleaded sincerely, Li Qingyun's expression...it was hard to describe.

He is one of the 1 people who doesn't want to have anything to do with the Jin family, because the Jin family has been in prison for a while, and he is in a panic in his heart!But... Wu Zifeng was his best friend, and he helped him a lot on weekdays. He had already asked for it. Li Qingyun really couldn't bear to refuse, so he just agreed with aggrieved.

Looking at the back of his friend who hastily left after thanking him for his gratitude, Li Qingyun froze on the spot, the tangled expression on his face amused Pei Heng and caused Li Qingyun to roll his eyes several times.

After putting away the small calligraphy and painting stall, Tong Huan and Pei Heng followed Li Qingyun back to his house. His house was really a typical house with bare walls, and there was not even a grain of rice in the rice jar, and it was so poor.

"...I forgot to buy rice today..." Li Qingyun was embarrassed. After making such a fuss today, he had earned some money, but he forgot to buy rice at all. They are all sitting at home, but they can't even order porridge, and they are almost ashamed to see others.

"Hehe...we understand! I understand..." However, after understanding, he still had to laugh, and Pei Heng laughed so loudly that Li Qingyun wanted to chase away people with a broom.

Of course, it's too careless to chase Pei Heng alone!

However, after Pei Heng finished laughing, he had someone bring a large table of good wine and food to celebrate their friendship, and then, naturally, they chatted about the Golden Mansion.

"Is it possible... that it was a trap? After all, according to what you said, you offended the... dog of the Jin family!" Of course, the backers behind the three bastards could not be the master of the Jin family, but the Jin family's owner. Just a little steward.

"Impossible! Zifeng is not that kind of person!" Li Qingyun was sure that his friends would not harm him, but he was not sure whether the members of the Jin family would take revenge.

However, is it really necessary to argue with a poor scholar like him?Just because of those three punks?Even a nerd is not so ignorant of common sense, so after thinking about it, the possibility of coincidence is extremely high.

Unknowingly, Li Qingyun and Pei Heng chatted lively back and forth, arguing a few words from time to time. It took a while for the two of them to realize that Tong Huan had been silent and hadn't spoken or even moved at all.

"Master?" Pei Heng called softly, intuitively thinking that Tong Huan's reaction should be related to the mission.

Could it be that Li Qingyun in front of me is the target of the mission?

"Well, go ahead and take the two of us with you." Tong Huan smiled slightly when he spoke, and looked at Li Qingyun with a hint of a smile in his eyes.

When I first entered this world, I immediately met Li Qingyun. It really wasn't a coincidence!

"Ah? Bring the two of you? You are my home! I can't promise you!" Li Qingyun was almost annoyed when he heard this, shaking his head like a rattle. At this moment, there is no literati at all. Elegant, but a little more childish.

"Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble." Tong Huan still smiled lightly, stretching out his chopsticks to pick up vegetables, eating leisurely.

Li Qingyun felt strange, this person looked younger than himself, so calm and composed, what kind of ability did he have?

"Just like that day...you suddenly disappeared?" Li Qingyun suddenly remembered the scene when he escaped from the prison a few days ago, his back felt cold, and he stared at Tong Huan suspiciously.

"That's right, I have a way to make myself disappear, and I'm sure no one will find out." If you want to break his invisibility talisman, unless someone else is more powerful than him.

However, if he can't fight, can he still hide?

Escaping for one's life is a basic skill, but he never thought that he was invincible in the world and could be tough with anyone!
