But the feeling of hunger has not subsided. He still feels hungry after just having a full meal. Ding Yi knows that ordinary meat cannot satisfy his current energy needs.
In Longwu Continent, all cultivators below the level of Qi Ding need a lot of monster meat to supplement their cultivation. Now Ding Yi is half-stepped into the ranks of cultivators, so he also needs to eat monster meat to further improve his strength. , otherwise, he would not even be able to practice now.
To eat monster beast meat, one has to hunt it himself, and the other has to buy it. The former, Ding Yi knows, is impossible. First-level monster beasts are all in the Qi Ding realm, and there is no way he can kill them. Then there is only one way to buy monster meat.
Monster meat is very expensive, not ordinary, so expensive that ordinary people need to look up to it.
For example, for a family, about five taels of silver a month is enough, and the cheapest first-level monster meat costs one tael of silver per pound. Is it expensive? It's terribly expensive!
With Ding Yi's conditions, Shen Luoyan gave him big fish and meat every day, but only three taels of silver a month was enough. These three taels of silver were earned by Shen Luoyan's hard work day and night on embroidery. And the money earned from this was only enough to buy him three kilograms of the lowest-grade monster meat.
Three kilograms was not enough for him to finish in a few meals.
Therefore, Ding Yi must find a way to make money and make more money to buy monster meat.
Now that he has entered the meditation stage, he is considered to be half a cultivator. He can choose some ways to make money while studying, because these paths are all for cultivators. Most people either do business or work to make money. Fortunately, they are not suffering. He said he couldn't make much money yet.
But practitioners are different, they have special channels to make money.
After all, not all cultivators are from famous families or have wealthy families. Most cultivators are from ordinary people. Therefore, considering that cultivators need a lot of monster meat to supplement their cultivation, many specialties have been opened specifically for the special group of cultivators. ways to make money.
These channels include employment tasks, government tasks, and serving as training instructors for children from aristocratic families, etc.
However, most of these tasks take up a lot of time and earn less money, so they are not suitable for Ding Yi.
Ding Yi thought about it and thought of a short-term and profitable channel, which was the most famous fighting arena in the Western Continent.
The fighting arena is a cruel and bloody place. Likewise, there is gold everywhere.
The fighting arena can be seen as a place where rich people play games, or it can be seen as a place where crazy people hone their skills, but no matter what the reason, a lot of money can indeed be made here.
However, the higher the reward for making money, the greater the risk. In this kind of place, life and death are determined by fate and wealth. Every fighter who enters has signed a life and death certificate. Therefore, the fighting arena has no control over the death of the fighter on the venue. bear any responsibility.
Ding Yi is not a madman, nor is he an arrogant man. One of the reasons why he chose the fighting arena is because he has a large relic that can help him recover from his injuries. The other reason is naturally that he can make the most money in a short time.
As long as he is not fatally injured, Ding Yi can admit defeat if he cannot beat him. Although the fighting arena is bloody, it is not so cruel that life and death will be decided upon entering. After admitting defeat, he can exit.
In addition, as a cultivator, Ding Yi is still looking forward to fighting deep down in his heart, and he also firmly believes that only through constant fighting can he grow up faster.
In this way, Ding Yi made a decision in his heart, carried the basket to the edge of the field and started cutting grass.
Not long after Ding Yi went out, something happened at home.
"Hey, it's really clear today and the moon is bright. Look, the seedlings in the wheat field are twisting their tender waists and they are so juicy!" A man with a fleshy face and a sturdy body was standing in front of Shen Luoyan, smiling. He looked at her with lewd eyes.
That look seemed to look right through the other person, which was quite disgusting.
At this moment, beside him, a tall and thin man said hurriedly: "Boss, there is no moon at the moment..."
"Go!" The man suddenly felt unhappy. He blocked the tall and thin man's head and said angrily, "I'll do it if I say so!"
The tall and thin man nodded immediately, but the short and fat man beside him was happy and said: "Boss, let alone the moon, if you say there is a pretty girl, I will believe it, right?"
As he said that, the short fat man also looked at Shen Luoyan with his narrow eyes, especially at the chest, scanning up and down, almost drooling.
Shen Luoyan glanced at them with disgust and took a few steps back: "What are you doing here? If nothing happens, you can leave quickly, I'm still busy!"
"Hahaha, what are you in a hurry for? I have business with you!" The man looked at Shen Luoyan proudly, and then said frivolously, "My dear, you are so handsome, but you are always reneging on your debts. Ah, hehe, people should not be judged by their appearance."
As he said that, the man stretched out his hand to hook Shen Luoyan's chin. Shen Luoyan immediately slapped his hand away in disgust and said angrily: "Du Qing, don't stop spitting on me. When will I ever take the blame?"
"Hey, look, you're so proud of your debts?" Du Qing tilted his head and laughed at the other two people. Then he looked at Shen Luoyan, smiled sinisterly, took out a book from his arms and flipped through it. Opened, read:
"Hey, don't say that I'm a slanderer. I, Du Qing, am not that kind of person. Look, I'll give you a thought..." On April 23rd of the third year of Longwu, Shen Luoyan volunteered to rent Liu Qisheng's gourd A house in the lane homestead, and promised to pay the rent of five taels of silver on time every month..."
"What? Five taels of silver?" Shen Luoyan was shocked when he heard this and said angrily, "When did I agree to do this? At that time, it was clearly agreed that it would be 500 taels of silver, so why did it suddenly become 50 taels of silver? You are talking nonsense. !”
"Am I talking nonsense?" Du Qing's eyes widened, and he said disgustedly as if he was being bullied. "Look, the black and white words on the paper were all written by you. Am I talking nonsense? I am wronged!"
When Shen Luoyan looked at the booklet, he was so angry that he almost fainted, because the place where "five hundred dollars" was supposed to be written on the booklet was suddenly obliterated, and then replaced with "five taels of silver" in a grand manner!
This was simply blackmail, so Shen Luoyan naturally refused to admit it: "This was clearly altered by you, and it was not my signature at all!"
"Hey, you don't have the final say on this matter. If you are not convinced, we can go to the Yamen to ask the elder to make a decision!" Du Qing put away the book and stared at Shen Luoyan with confidence, with a sneer on his lips.
"You!... You are bullying me too much. I won't rent this house anymore. I'll move out of the head office, right?" Shen Luoyan knew in his heart that Mr. Liu was very powerful. He might have colluded with the Yamen a long time ago. When he got to the Yamen, he might be even more reasonable. I can't explain it clearly, otherwise the other party wouldn't be so confident.
Du Qing smiled coldly and said, "Hey, you don't want to rent anymore? That's fine, Mr. Liu is a compassionate person and won't force others, but please pay off this month's rent!"
Saying that, Du Qing stretched out his hand.
"What's settled? I just paid this month's rent a few days ago, are you still being unreasonable?" Shen Luoyan was angry and annoyed.
Du Qing laughed, stared at Shen Luoyan obscenely and said: "Is it clear? You can say it lightly. The rent is obviously five taels of silver, but you only gave five hundred yuan, which is not enough to stuff your teeth. You actually said Cleared?"
Shen Luoyan finally understood what the other party wanted to do. The other party wanted to blackmail her, but what could she, a weak woman, do? A good man would not suffer the consequences before him. As a woman, she was even less likely to resist. Although she was angry and aggrieved, the situation was Being stronger than others, she had to bow her head.
Therefore, Shen Luoyan took a few deep breaths and said solemnly: "Okay, I will pay you back the money, but I don't have the money now, it will take a few days!"
Just use this money to feed the dogs! Shen Luoyan cursed silently in his heart.
"What? No money?" Du Qing showed a look of panic, and then laughed loudly, "You still want to move out without money? There is no way! Hey, you two, escort her to see the official, I still don't believe it. , it is natural to pay back debts, how dare she refuse to pay them back?"
As soon as the two men heard this, their eyes lit up and they rushed towards Shen Luoyan. They stretched out their claws to grab Shen Luoyan's waist and chest. Their actions were very obscene.
Shen Luoyan screamed immediately and hurriedly backed away.
The old lady next door heard the screams and hurriedly ran out to take a look. She saw two bullies trying to catch Shen Luoyan. She immediately said angrily: "Stop! You bunch of beasts are going to do this in broad daylight." Is it a beast?"
It must be said that the old lady's words were still very powerful, and the two of them stopped immediately.
Du Qing was not happy, the fat in his mouth actually flew away? He had put a lot of effort into performing such a drama today just to catch Shen Luoyan back. As long as he caught it back, Shen Luoyan would still be there. Can it escape from his grasp?
Therefore, Du Qing said angrily: "Old woman, this is none of your business, just go and do what you have to do!"
The old lady was not afraid of the other party. She came to Shen Luoyan and asked with concern: "Yan'er, what happened?"
When Shen Luoyan saw the old lady coming, her grievance suddenly turned into tears. She cried and talked, and the old lady finally understood.
The old lady was also a sensible person and knew that the other party must have manipulated this matter, but since the other party was so confident, she must have been prepared. Therefore, the old lady thought about it and said: "Du Qing, please stop talking nonsense, she owes you How much do you pay?"
"Fifty taels of silver!" Du Qing glared at the old lady and said unhappily.
"Well, I'll just pay it back to you for her!" The old lady simply took out a silver coin from her arms and handed it to Du Qing.
Du Qing slapped her money away and said angrily: "Old woman, she owes me what she owes me, not what you owe me. Why are you meddling in your own business? She has to pay her back today, what are you going to do?"
Obviously, at this moment, Du Qing had lost his patience.
"You!...You heartless beast!" The old lady yelled angrily. She finally understood that the other party was coming for Shen Luoyan today.
Du Qing was so angry at being scolded that he kicked the old lady down, and then said angrily: "Why are you two so stunned? Why don't you arrest her and bring her to court?"
"Oh, yes..." The two men were actually very guilty, but due to Du Qing's usual power, they had no choice but to catch Shen Luoyan.
Shen Luoyan was going to help the old lady, but saw that the two were trying to catch her again. She panicked and wanted to escape, but how could a weak woman fight against two grown men? Therefore, the two quickly grabbed her. She also planned to take advantage of her.
Shen Luoyan was ashamed and angry, grabbing and kicking, but the two of them failed, but she still couldn't break away from their clutches. For a moment, she burst into tears, and felt an unprecedented helplessness in her heart. At this moment, she I wish someone could help her, but no one can.
In my ears, I heard the proud and obscene laughter of these villains, which sounded so harsh...
