I walked in the wilderness for three consecutive days. When I was thirsty, I drank dew. When I was hungry, I ate some roots of plants. I saw wild animals but not caught them. There were also birds in the sky that flew by.
At some point, Zhou Tai felt that if a white tiger appeared in front of him, he would have the courage to hold a shovel and fight for meat even if he was hungry.
However, he did not encounter a ferocious beast, so he did not even have a chance to fight for his life. It was not until he saw a road that Zhou Tai realized that the scope of his activities in the past few days was not far from the designated human gathering area. If a ferocious beast appeared, it would be too long.
It will be cleaned up by people, and animals will be hunted. Over time, it will naturally be difficult to encounter wild beasts here.
I thought I was very capable of enduring hardship, but judging from my experiences these past few days, I still can't. I was raised by my family when I was a child, then sold, and worked in a mine to take care of the food, without even a chance to work and save money.
People always try to save themselves, and suddenly he saw some people passing by in a group in the distance. Zhou Tai hid his belongings nearby, and after these people passed by, he lay down on the side of the road and waited for the help of kind-hearted people.
It was indeed time to need help, and the reason why I missed those people just now was because I could see them. If I lay down on the roadside, they could see me lying down, which would be unreal.
In order to appear real, I also removed all the strengthening points on my body. After the removal, my whole body felt much weaker.
This road seemed to be very remote. After waiting for a long time, no more passers-by were seen.
Fortunately, there were trees on both sides of the road, and Zhou Tai lay down under the shade of the trees on the roadside. As for why he didn't lie down in the middle of the road? What if he was stepped on or crushed by an unscrupulous person? Just on the roadside, without rescue,
It doesn't block other people's roads either. And the sun is shining in the middle of the road, which is also very bad.
Just when Zhou Tai felt like he was about to fall asleep, another group of people finally passed by, pretending to be unconscious. He heard the sounds of more than ten people passing by, but they were just passing by.
Yes, just passing by, a half-year-old child like Zhou Tai was unconscious on the roadside, and it was as if he couldn't see it.
Thinking that people are different, I waited for the next batch, but when I finally waited for the next batch, I was still fine.
Thinking that failure is the mother of success, Zhou Tai continued to wait. On the third time, someone passing by finally came to him.
Before Zhou Tai could react, a pair of hands groped him all over, made sure he didn't have any money, kicked him, and cursed "You're a poor guy." He turned around and left.
Fortunately, the clothes were in tatters, otherwise they would have been taken away.
After thinking about it again and again, Zhou Tai decided to endure it. This time there were the most people passing by. You could tell they were a group by the sound of their voices. If you act violently, you may not be able to take advantage.
After the group of people had gone away, Zhou Tai, who was still lying on the roadside, began to reflect on whether his method was wrong and whether he thought people were too simple and kind?
At the same time, I feel even more that as a mortal, life is not easy and full of difficulties.
When something happens or is tragic, most people in the world will just look at the joke coldly.
Many times, the big fist really makes sense.
Try robbing! No one is born to want to do bad things. If you are starving to death, you really can't take care of that much.
While you still have some strength, if the robbery fails, you can still run away. If you drag on, you won't be far from Liangliang.
…
It was a sunny afternoon, cool and comfortable, and the wild flowers on the roadside swayed in the wind.
A carriage was coming from far away. The carriage was being led by the driver. There was a young woman sitting in the driver's seat, holding a bag of cakes in her hand and eating small bites. She looked like she was a maid in her dress.
There were four servants following the carriage, all of them men, with knives in their waists. They looked more like bodyguards protecting the courtyard.
Zhou Tai was very hesitant when he observed the situation of these people. There were not many people, but he felt that it was not easy to mess with. However, this was already the second day here. Until dark yesterday, he did not meet any lone passers-by.
.
I also thought that if I met someone who could read and tied it up, I would have a chance to know what kind of book was in my cave.
Looking at the carriage, Zhou Tai gritted his teeth, thinking that this might be the last moment of his career as an immortal.
He also thought about putting down his dignity and begging, because he still looked like a child anyway, but the experience of lying on the roadside yesterday made him know that if he begged, he would probably not be able to change anything, and would instead make himself suffer humiliation in the last moments of his life.
Originally he was inclined to let it go, but the woman in front of the carriage who kept eating pastries aroused Zhou Tai, and he didn't want to control himself anymore.
"Robbery!" He said as loudly as possible, trying to sound domineering.
He jumped into the middle of the road, stopped the group of people, and holding a shovel that he had strengthened three times, Zhou Tai said: "Leave some money and food to let you pass. Otherwise, I will fight with you." Although his words were a bit timid,
But when it comes to temperament, Zhou Tai feels that he has a good handle on it.
Zhou Tai suddenly jumped out, causing the moving carriage and entourage to stop. The scene was briefly quiet, and the maid eating cakes also stopped with the cakes on her lips.
Then, it was clear that there was only a young man blocking the road. The four attendants and the driver all laughed. The maid looked at Zhou Taipong's appearance and moved her eyes again, looking at it completely lazily.
"Boy, what did you say? You'd better think about it carefully. Do you dare to say it again?" One of the servants pulled out a knife and stepped forward, the blade of the knife shining with cold light.
"Robbery!" These two words were spoken without hesitation. This is like a man chasing a woman. After chasing for a hundred kilometers, he only missed the last ten centimeters and gave up after someone shouted?
We all tried our best. If we don't fight to the death, how can we count ourselves as desperate?
Seeing the servant with the knife approaching, Zhou Tai also tightened his grip on his shovel. He had already thought about using his powerful shovel to cut off the opponent's knife and then the other person.
At this critical moment, a nice and mature female voice came from the carriage: "Come back."
The servant holding the sword stepped back after hearing what he said.
"Uncle Fu, give him some money from the carriage." The pleasant female voice continued.
"Yes, madam." The coachman nodded and replied.
Seeing the changes in the situation, Zhou Tai decided to remain unchanged in response to the changes. But when the coachman handed over the silver, he cautiously took it with a shovel, not caring about the looks on the other side, and gave it a shake with the shovel.
After confirming that the touch felt right, he opened the bag containing the silver with his hands.
Comparing the large and small silver ingots with the silver he had been sold for back then, he felt that these could be worth twenty taels. Thinking that he had only sold them for a high price of ten taels, Zhou Tai said: "There is too much silver, I will just keep half of it.
"
While saying this, he took out about ten taels of silver, returned the bag to the coachman, and said, "Can you get something to eat? Or give me that pastry." He pointed to the maid's pastry.
Knowing that the other party was helping me, I accepted it as soon as it was good and took only half of the silver. But at this moment in the wild, there was nowhere to spend the money, so food must be needed.
"Uncle Fu, get him some more food." Another voice came from the carriage. I don't know if it was an illusion. This time, Zhou Tai felt that the voice was much gentler.
When the coachman Fu Bo went back to get the food, Zhou Tai recovered all the strengthening points on the shovel, and then strengthened the nails to level three. Then he squatted down, turned around, turned his back to everyone, and used the nails to scratch a square piece of iron on the shovel.
Come down, and quickly write the Chinese character Tai on top, and add a little strengthening point to the iron piece.
There are also some worries that abnormalities will be discovered during the operation, but thinking about it, the chance of discovery is not great.
The shovel is black in its enhanced level 3 and normal form, making it difficult to detect. Although the change in the nail is obvious, it is almost completely in my hand. I still operate it with my back to you, even if I can guess it.
It was made on site, but it only included the sharp weapon he was carrying. In the world of cultivating immortals, sharp weapons are unlikely to be considered treasures.
When he took the small bag of food handed over by Uncle Fu, he handed the iron piece to the other person's hand. Then before the other person could react, he ducked to the side of the road and said loudly: "My name is Zhou Tai, and today my wife is alive."
Enyong remembers that this iron plate is a token. If you become successful in the future, if something happens to my wife or her descendants, I will hold this iron plate and go through fire and water, no matter what."
"Hey, look at you kid, you are so kind. You are willing to go with me and follow me from now on." The lady in the carriage opened the curtain and said softly to Zhou Tai.
The lady wore a veil, a bun with a high bun, and a plump body. The few exposed skins were snowy. And beside the lady, there was a little girl with pink crystal jade, looking at her with big twinkling eyes.
"Thank you madam, but I still like to make my own way!" He had also been betrayed before, and when he heard that he was leaving with someone else, Zhou Tai always felt like he was being betrayed. He wanted to pursue the fate of immortality, so he could only cut off this opportunity.
"This kind of robbery?" The lady smiled softly and closed the curtain. The coachman handed the iron plate given by Zhou Tai into the car, and then led the carriage forward. The maid on the carriage said something that Zhou Tai can listen to.
If it comes to words: "I don't know how to praise."
Watching the carriage go away, Zhou Tai bowed deeply.
