Although Ye Dong comes from a small place, the Ye family is the largest aristocratic family in Qiuye Town, so his clothes are relatively high-end.
Coupled with Ye Dong's reaction when he saw the spectacular scene in Yunyao City, it is easy for people to mistake him for the son of a nouveau riche family in the countryside.
Naturally, with this status, in the eyes of some people with ill intentions, he is definitely a standard fat sheep!
Ye Dong followed the footsteps of the people around him with great interest and watched casually on the street. After walking like this for a while, he felt a little hungry.
With Ye Dong's current strength, nothing will happen to him even if he doesn't eat or drink for three days. But in order to rush on the road, he has been frantically consuming his spiritual energy for a day and a half without sleeping. Naturally, he will feel a little hungry, and
It's noon now, and it's time to eat.
There happened to be a majestic restaurant on the street not far away, and bursts of guessing and playing were coming from inside, making it very lively.
Ye Dong touched the money bag his grandfather had given him before he left, as well as his savings over the years. Ye Dong thought to himself that since he had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place, he might as well go have something to eat first and also ask the waiter at the shop.
Find out where you can buy cauldrons.
After making up his mind, Ye Dong walked towards the restaurant. People were rubbing shoulders with each other on the street. Suddenly, a hand gently stretched out towards Ye Dong's arms.
Ye Dong himself is a master of the Nine Levels of Spiritual Seal. Coupled with the training of various parts of the body in "The Battle of the Sea of Blood", his six senses are far stronger than others.
Therefore, when this hand was just about to appear, he had already felt it, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart. This thief was so short-sighted that he actually planned to target himself.
Ye Dong continued to walk forward without realizing it. When the hand had completely reached into his arms and he could even feel that his fingers had pinched the money bag, Ye Dong raised his hand lightly and flicked it.
, the three fingers of his right hand, like iron pliers, tightly pinched the opponent's wrist.
The six acupuncture points at the fingertips of Ye Dong's right hand have been completely opened. The fingertips are as hard as metal. When he pinches them like this, the opponent feels that his wrist is about to break. He wants to pull out but can't pull back at all. He can't help but say something in his mouth.
A cry of pain.
As soon as the cry came out, Ye Dong's hand was strong, and he dragged the other person forcefully into an alley next to him.
At this time, Ye Dongcai raised his eyes and looked at the owner of the hand he was holding. He was a thin man in his thirties with a scorched face.
At this moment, the man's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he looked at Ye Dong with a pleading look on his face.
Ye Dong snorted coldly and let go of his hand. The man immediately held his wrist and rubbed it fiercely. After the pain subsided a little, he hurriedly raised his head and said pitifully to Ye Dong: "Master, the villain has no eyesight. How can I help you?"
Please be kind to me, sir, and let me go."
"What's your name? I see you also have spiritual energy in your body. Why don't you practice hard instead of doing such sneaky things?"
When Ye Dong pinched the opponent's wrist just now, he could clearly feel the flow of spiritual energy, but it was extremely weak, which showed that the opponent's cultivation level was not high.
There was a look of shame on the face of the thin man, and he lowered his head and said: "My name is Hou Jian. How dare I call myself a practitioner? I just learned a few exercises and formulas from others when I was young. I originally wanted to join the sect, but
I had no money, no power, mediocre qualifications, and no one to take me in. I had no choice but to embark on this path."
After listening, Ye Dong had a thoughtful look on his face. After a long time, he sighed in his heart and believed Hou Jian's words.
Because what Hou Jian said is true. On the Suzaku Continent, everyone actually wants to become a practitioner. Everyone wants to enter the mortal realm, become a master, be respected by thousands of people, and be superior to others everywhere. But this
It's simply impossible.
As the saying goes, the poor are poor in literature and rich in martial arts, and those who have no money go to school. Learning martial arts and practicing martial arts can only be done by the rich.
Whether it's martial arts, weapons, elixirs, or combat skills, none of these things are free of charge. In fact, there are many children with outstanding talents who were completely buried because they had no money, no power, and no family like Hou Jian.
.
Therefore, if you have no money and no power, your qualifications are half good. No matter how hard you work and how ideal you are, you must be content with reality. You are destined to be a common man in this life.
The reason why Ye Dong is where he is today is entirely because Ye Yuanjun established the Ye family and laid a good foundation for their practice.
After a moment of silence, Ye Dong said, "Have you eaten yet?"
Hou Jian's face turned red and he muttered: "No, no!"
"Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal!"
After saying that, Ye Dong turned around and walked out of the alley. After Hou Jian was stunned for a moment, he chased after him in fear and whispered: "Young master, no need. You can be so generous and let me go. I can't thank you enough."
After all, where can I still dare to eat!"
Ye Dong turned around, glanced at him coldly and said, "If I don't treat you to food, do you still want to steal other people's money?"
At this glance, Hou Jian couldn't help but trembled all over, and said hurriedly: "Don't dare!"
Ye Dong withdrew his gaze and said in a calm tone: "It's up to you whether you come or not. If you feel embarrassed, you can give me directions later and we'll be settled."
Ignoring Hou Jian, Ye Dong walked directly towards the restaurant, while Hou Jian stood there and pondered for a moment, and finally followed Ye Dong.
When the two of them arrived at the restaurant, a waiter immediately came to greet them and said with a smile: "Two guests, please come inside!"
The waiter took the two of them to a table by the window and arranged for them to sit down. Ye Dong also ordered four dishes. After looking at Hou Jian, he added a bottle of wine and then remained silent.
sitting there.
Hou Jian felt like there were thorns on his butt. He felt uncomfortable sitting down, but he didn't dare to speak, so he could only hold on.
Fortunately, within a short time, the waiter had already brought the wine and food. Ye Dong stretched out his hand and nodded on the table and said: "Hou Jian, eat first, and we'll talk about it after you finish!"
Hou Jian gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"
I don’t know if he was really hungry or if he really relaxed. He grabbed his chopsticks and started eating.
Just like the wind and the lingering clouds, after a while, the plate was empty and the wine bottle was empty. After burping loudly, Hou Jian looked at Ye Dong who barely moved his chopsticks with a little embarrassment and said: "Young Master
Master, I'm sorry to make you laugh, I've been hungry for several days."
At this time, Ye Dong was not as indifferent as before, but smiled slightly and said: "Are you full? If not, I will order two more dishes."
Hou Jian hurriedly waved his hands and said: "I'm full, I'm full, I can't eat anymore."
"Yes!" Ye Dong asked the waiter to remove the dinner plate and asked for another pot of tea. Then he looked at Hou Jian and said, "Are you a local?"
"I'm not a local, but I've been here for some time, and I'm quite familiar with this place. Just now, I asked you to show me the way. I wonder where you want to go?"
"I want to buy a cauldron for refining medicine. Do you know where I can get one?"
