Chapter 993 – Little Beggar

　　Lu Baoyu looked at the broken bowl, as well as the several worn out bills clutched in her hand, and fell into silence.

　　He pulled out a twenty-dollar denomination bill from his pocket and stuffed it into the little beggar’s hand, speaking faintly, “I’m going to sleep here for three nights.”

　　The little beggar froze.

　　She looked at the banknote in her hand, and then looked at Lu Baoyu who continued to rest her eyes, after hesitating for a long time, she still stuffed this money into her bosom, and walked alone to sit down on the wall opposite to Lu Baoyu.

　　”Oh …… good.”

　　She set the broken bowl aside, piled the collected firewood with the weeds, and used a candle to start a bonfire, briefly dispelling the cold of the winter night.

　　She then took out a stack of ragged blankets from the cave in the back and wrapped them around her body, amidst the icy cold wind, she only revealed a red face outside, a pair of eyes curiously sizing up Lu Baoyu across from her.

　　Lu Baoyu re-closed her eyes.

　　”You are not a beggar, right?” After a long time, the little beggar couldn’t help but ask.

　　”No.” Lu Baoyu replied indifferently.

　　”I don’t think it’s like that either, the clothes on your body are very clean …… Then are you running away from home?”

　　”No.”

　　”Then were you abducted by human traffickers?”

　　”No.”

　　”…… Then why did you come here?” The little beggar opened his mouth in disbelief, “You have money, why don’t you go live in an inn?”

　　For the matter of his nest being occupied by someone, the little beggar was a little dissatisfied.

　　Lu Baozui did not answer, his right hand in his pocket, silently rubbed the body of the only remaining one ten dollar bill and two coins, the heart is somewhat helpless ……

　　The money on his body was not much, on the way to Shangjing, almost all have been used up, left zero whole thirty-three dollars, this period of time in the training camp does not need money, but once the vacation leave the training camp, this more than thirty dollars in the city of Shangjing, can not be put to any use at all.

　　Borrow money from other recruits? Follow them and dabble with their food and drink?

　　No way.

　　Lu Baozui is not never had a hard time, so a little difficulty is nothing to him, in the bridge hole, use the rest of the money to buy some steamed buns or eat a bowl of noodles, three days will pass, and here is far from the city, very clean, he can continue to train here, and in the meantime, practice sword skills.

　　He can have no place to live, can blow cold wind, but training is not a day can not fall.

　　Seeing that Lu Baoyu didn’t say anything, the little beggar shrugged his shoulders and dropped his gaze back on the black box beside Lu Baoyu, blinking curiously.

　　”What’s in this box?”

　　Lu Baoyu remained silent.

　　Seeing that he had no intention of taking care of himself, the little beggar muttered and silently shrunk his body into a ball, leaned against the fire and began to sleep with his eyes closed.

　　The long night is long.

　　Seeing the little beggar fell into a deep sleep, Lu Baozui put his hands into his sleeves, gazed at the bonfire for a moment, also gradually sank into the dreamland.

　　A little beggar, a one-eyed teenager, just leaning against the fire, drifting off to sleep.

　　Don’t know how long.

　　A cold and strange wind blew by, instantly extinguishing the dancing fire in the bridge hole.

　　A weird and morose teeth grinding sound came from the darkness, like fingernails rubbing on a blackboard that pierced the ears, Lu Baoyu snapped his eyes open and turned his head to look into the darkness beside the bridge hole, and one of his palms grabbed the handle of the black box.

　　Seemingly sensing the cold, the little beggar also opened her sleepy eyes, she raised her head, only to see a beast silhouette in the shadows beside the bridge hole, being slowly outlined.

　　That is a long seven-eyed blood-colored wolf dog, the body is almost taller than the small beggar’s person, blood-colored hair fluttering in the wind, low whimpering sound from the throat, seven eyes staggered open and closed, chilling.

　　The little beggar let out a cry of alarm and fiercely tried to get up from the ground, but his legs went limp.

　　”Hey! Hurry up!” The little beggar moved his body backwards while shouting to Lu Baoyu who was still leaning against the wall beside him.

　　Lu Baoyu’s eyes narrowed slightly and he did not reply, he just stood up from the ground carrying the black box, and with a press of his fingertips on the handle, a straight sword popped out of the box.

　　Lu Baoyu steadily held it in his hand.

　　This one-eyed teenager carried the knife, stepped over the fire mass with only embers left, and walked between the little beggar and the seven-eyed wolf dog, a flash of crimson light flared up from his eyes.

　　”A mere ‘Mysterious’ of the ‘Pool’ realm ……”

　　Lu Baoyu muttered and was about to strike when his mind suddenly recalled Lin Qiye’s advice when he left the training camp, and his gaze fell on the little beggar behind him with a terrified expression.

　　”Hey.” Lu Baoyu calmly said, “Close your eyes.”

　　”Huh?”

　　”Close your eyes.”

　　”Oh ……”

　　Lu Baoyu’s figure blocked the little beggar’s line of sight from looking at the wolf dog, and she sat paralyzed on the ground, her gaze moving away from Lu Baoyu’s body, obediently closing her eyes.

　　Seeing this, only then did Lu Baoyu turn his head, carrying his sword towards the seven-eyed wolfdog, the corner of his mouth hooked into a cold smile.

　　”Not a bad training opponent ……”

　　Above the tall building.

　　Chen Han gazed at the city below, a patch of shadows that was expanding silently.

　　After he hesitated for a moment, he was about to step out, when Shao Pingge’s voice leisurely sounded, “No need to be anxious, the ones who are coming out right now, are all small fishes, those youngsters can handle it.

　　The real big heads are all still hiding in the shadows and observing, they are your target.”

　　Chen Han slowly retracted his right foot that had stepped out.

　　Right at this moment, a flash of night color blossomed from the nothingness behind the two of them, and a figure clad in a crimson cloak, carrying a black box on its back, slowly approached.

　　”Eh?” Shao Pingge raised an eyebrow and looked back, seeing the familiar face, he laughed, “You’re here too?”

　　”I was a bit bored after dinner and came out to join in the fun.”

　　Lin Qiye smiled faintly, “Moreover, the identity of the new captain of the Shangjing City squad …… I am really a little curious.”

　　His gaze landed on Chen Han, who was wearing a military coat on the side, and he froze slightly.

　　Chen Han saw Lin Qiye and froze in place as well.

　　The two looked at each other for a long time before Lin Qiye spoke in surprise:

　　”Chen Han?”

　　”It’s me.” Chen Han smiled helplessly, “Surprise?”

　　Lin Qiye carefully sized him up for a long time before nodding and saying, “Indeed, it’s a bit unexpected, and the aura you have on you ……”

　　Ever since the first time Lin Qiye saw Chen Han, he realized that Chen Han’s aura had undergone a sea change, and the kind of temperament that exuded from him reminded Lin Qiye of another person ……

　　or rather, another god.

　　”Li …… Fengdu Emperor?” Lin Qiye spoke in surprise, “You became his agent? What’s going on here?”

　　”Two years ago, when Anta County returned from the mists, I met Uncle Li.” The color of memories surfaced in Chen Han’s eyes, “At that time, I was already on the verge of dying from a high fever, and he used a force to repair my body, and told me everything again ……

　　After that, I could feel that there was something more in my body.”

　　”Later I realized that it was Uncle Li’s Divine Ruin.”
