Chapter 141 Fairy Waste 3
Xining ran back home according to the body owner's memory.
The owner's parents had died long ago, and her brother was married. However, her brother and sister-in-law were not always kind to her, so they gave her the original woodshed in a yard.
Xining looked around, tore off the door curtain, packed the owner's second set of tattered clothes into a bag, then went to the kitchen to get a few hard buns, stuffed them together into the bag, and carried them out.
As soon as they went out, they saw Hei Xiaozi and three other boys coming in a menacing manner with their parents, bruised and swollen.
Annoyed by being held back, Xining quickly slipped aside and ran around the wall to the outside of the village.
I heard a lot of noise in the yard, and the parents of the beaten boy were asking for an explanation.
Naturally, her sister-in-law and brother refused to admit it. If they did, they would have to pay for it. They shouted at the top of their lungs: "What nonsense are you talking about? Four boys can't beat a girl in my family? Erya will only be bullied by your sons..."< br>
Yep, when I was bullied, I never saw you come to ask for an explanation. It was his turn to come to the door and ask for money, so he defended himself.
Farewell, my unscrupulous relatives!
Xining didn't know where Wuling Mountain was, so he could only ask around.
Judging from her appearance, although she is a child from a poor family, everyone knows that the major fairy mountains are recruiting disciples once a year. Even though some children are dressed in rags, they might become immortals in the future. So most of them answered patiently.
At night, Xining went to ruined temples and empty houses to make bonfires and spend the night.
Thinking about the body owner's previous hardships in order to take the exam, he was almost sold by a trafficker.
Don't expect a little cannon fodder to encounter any chance encounters, encounter a fight with an immortal, pick up some treasures from the corpse; rush out of an injured monster, die in front of her, dig out a big inner elixir; If you meet a distinguished person, give him a letter of recommendation.
Don't think about anything. As long as you don't run into a bad person or a beast, thank God.
When I don't have enough cold buns, I pick some wild fruits or something. Sometimes I pass by a farmer's house and ask for a bite.
Fortunately, the country is now peaceful and the people are safe. When farmers see a little girl in ragged clothes, who looks very pitiful, they will give her some steamed buns or steamed buns. If you are kind, you can add some vegetables to the bowl of rice.
At the best time, a wealthy family held a birthday banquet and gave a bowl of white rice with some vegetables on top and a spoonful of broth.
In this way, hungry and full, we finally reached Luo City.
They also need to collect city fees, one copper per person!
Only children under five years old are free. The owner is already ten years old. Even if he lacks nutrition and grows short, he still doesn't look like a five-year-old child.
Looking at the towering city wall, the two words "Luocheng" beautifully written on the stone tablet above the city gate, and the queues at the door. When entering the city, they threw a penny into the tax box in front of the city guard. Xining Just a headache.
"Immortal, look at Immortal!" someone shouted.
Everyone raised their heads and looked up.
Xining also raised his head and saw two figures passing by in the sky. Two people wearing blue robes. Because the distance was a bit far, it was difficult to tell the male and female. They were flying with swords. With her clothes fluttering and her body standing upright to face the wind, she really looks like a fairy.
The two of them did not stop and flew directly into the sky above the city, towards the smoky top of Wuling Mountain behind the city.
It’s great to cultivate immortality, and save the entry fee.
Although the entry fee is not high, only one copper coin, a single penny can defeat a heroic man. Is it a detour? If we take a detour, we will have to travel an extra five or six days, and we don’t know if we can still catch up with the exam.
I recalled what the body owner had done before... hiding in the empty slop bucket entering the city.
Okay, let's go find the truck that delivers the swill bucket. After waiting for a long time, I finally saw an ox cart pulling a swill bucket. Every day, people would drag their feet from various restaurants out of the city to feed the pigs, and then return to the city after feeding them.
Taking advantage of the other party's convenience before entering the city, Xining jumped on the bullock cart and opened the lid when he was facing a tree.
There was a sour smell of food, as if it was carrying fermented heat.
Oh my god, I endured it for the mission! Xining pinched her nose, got in bravely, and closed the lid.
The smell in the bucket was even worse. Xining covered his nose with his sleeves, but the smell still penetrated through the fabric on his sleeves and penetrated into his nose with every breath. It was so smokey that I could barely open my eyes, so I could only squint.
Thinking about how pitiful the ninth-rate female supporting character is, she suffered so much, only to die the first time the monster attacked Wuling Mountain, which became one of the reasons to motivate the male protagonist. In the end, the male protagonist may not remember what he looked like. At most, he remembers the miserable appearance of corpses lying on the ground when he died.
The convenience of catching the bus is over, so continue to catch the bus. The bullock cart moved, and the bucket on it swayed slightly as the cart moved.
When Xining was almost fainted from the smoke, the bullock cart finally entered the city and stopped.
She stood up suddenly, holding the lid and gasping for air. Ah, the air outside is so fresh and comfortable.
At this time, we stopped at the back door of a restaurant. The driver probably went in to look for someone, and took advantage of this moment to leave quickly.
Xining was walking on the street. Luo City was very prosperous, just like the picture of Along the River During the Qingming Festival. Restaurants and shops were lined up in rows. On the road paved with bluestones, pedestrians crowded around each other, making it very lively.
But she discovered that a vacuum formed within one meter around her. Even those who came towards me would cover their noses and avoid them with disgust on their faces.
Well, she smelled like the sour swill in the bucket.
You can't sign up for the exam like this. At that time, you signed up like this and got kicked out.
It was raining heavily, and she knelt in front of the mountain gate, refusing to leave despite the wind and rain. It probably diluted the stench on her body. If the senior uncles above saw it, they would think it was unfair, so she was allowed to go in and try it.
Tsk tsk tsk, it’s pitiful when you think about it, but the body owner doesn’t have the halo of the protagonist, no matter how hard he works, he still died at the age of fifteen.
Xining found a house, stole a pair of ordinary clothes hanging outside, and found a more secluded place. After changing into them, he threw away the tattered clothes, then went to the public well to wash his face and hands, and washed his hair with his hands. Pull it up, get some water, and comb it into a braid.
Looking at the girl reflected in the water, the dark blue in her eyes has faded over the past few days. The whole face can't be considered beautiful, it can only be considered attractive to the eyes. It doesn't look as good as the previous Jianqiu. The flat, featureless face looks like a passerby.
But at least he looked somewhat decent, whereas before he had messy hair, patched clothes, and a sour smell.
When passing by, Xining also picked up a pair of cloth shoes that had just been washed and hung outside to dry. Regardless of whether they are still wet or the size is too big, putting them on first is better than wearing straw sandals with ropes that are about to break.
After leaving Luocheng, we walked for another day and finally reached the registration point in front of Wuling Mountain.
