"Who is the greater Demon Suppressor in Anping County than He Bo of the Weishui River?" Li Jun's question struck a chord directly in his heart.
Hu Mingsheng's complexion suddenly turned bad.
a long time.
"He Bo usually doesn't care about human affairs."
Li Jun sneered: "You mean, if He Bo interferes with human affairs, the Demon Suppressor still has to listen to He Bo?"
"Yes, we humans are still too weak after all. When powerful ghosts harm the world, He Bo must step in to suppress them."
Hu Mingsheng did not dare to look into Li Jun's eyes.
Li Jun let out a long sigh.
It has been so long since he traveled to this world, and for the first time he felt a deep sadness.
What are humans?
Perhaps, humans are just sheep raised by ghosts and monsters, and practitioners, represented by the Demon Suppressor, are sheepdogs.
Li Jun thought of a scary word... shepherd ghost
Yes, these ghosts regard humans as their own private sheep, although Hu Mingsheng said that He Bo only eats ten young girls a year.
I'm afraid Hu Mingsheng himself doesn't believe this, let alone Li Jun?
When Li Jun was a child, he went to his grandma's house. His grandma lived in the countryside and raised many sheep at home, and she would kill them every year.
Grandma told him not to kill sheep in front of other sheep. Sheep are not stupid and they know some things. Sheep live in a muddle and gain weight.
Li Jun slowly took a sip of rice wine and said calmly: "Li Jun, I have gained some strength through some opportunities, but I have no ambitions and just want to live in peace and contentment."
Hu Mingsheng smiled: "I didn't say that you are required to join the Demon Suppression Division. In fact, many practitioners are quite free and unorganized."
"It's easy to live a peaceful life. Just don't provoke the underworld. You can kill the ghosts at will. After killing them, you can go to the Demon Suppression Division to receive the reward."
"Actually, there are advantages to being in the Demon Suppressing Division. You can get a salary, and you can also know some inside information. For example, this time the imperial concubine, if you knew that she was the ghost of He Bochao, you wouldn't touch her, right?"
Li Jun looked at him expressionlessly.
Hu Mingsheng was not embarrassed, he laughed loudly: "That's all, let's not mention these things, let's eat meat and drink wine."
Hu Mingsheng grabbed the fish and stuffed it into his mouth. His mouth was filled with oil, as if a hungry ghost had reincarnated.
The tattered monk's robe was dripping with oil and dirty, and he didn't pay attention to his image at all.
After eating, Hu Mingsheng wiped his mouth and said with a grin: "Brother Li Jun, it's almost dawn. Let's break up. We'll keep in touch in the future. You don't go out much these days. Let's wait until the limelight passes."
Li Jun nodded: "I understand, do you have money? Lend me some money."
Hu Mingsheng almost spit out his drink, rolled his eyes, and threw a bag of silver over.
Have you ever seen a practitioner who is short of money?
Li Jun took the silver and estimated that it was about twenty taels, which was a huge sum of money.
One tael of silver is worth one thousand copper coins.
One copper coin can buy a big bowl of steaming noodles, five copper coins can buy half a catty of fish, and ten copper coins can buy you a delicious meal in a restaurant.
Prices are low in this world, and of course the common people don't have much money. Li Junyuan would not be able to save twenty taels of silver in his lifetime.
…
When we came out of the brothel, it was already dawn.
Li Jun squinted his eyes and looked back. The rows of red lanterns from last night had been put away long ago, and the bustling prostitute alley fell into silence.
wrong.
Li Jun suddenly thought of a problem. There are ghosts in this world, so people generally don't go out at night.
But Prostitute Lane is an exception.
Prostitutes in Anping County do business at night.
This has almost become common sense that everyone knows. Li Jun accepted the memory of his original body and accepted this common sense.
But does common sense always make sense?
Li Jun walked out of the alley step by step, feeling his steps were sloppy and top-heavy, and his heart was extremely heavy.
"There must be something I've overlooked?"
I shook my head and stopped thinking about these worries. The morning air was very fresh, carrying the moist moisture blowing from the Weishui River.
"Baozi, buy steamed buns, delicious fish buns."
"Fortunate fish rice noodles, lucky fish rice noodles, fresh lucky fish rice noodles are delicious."
The morning market has opened, and the hard-working vendors have opened their stalls early. The steamed buns in the steamer are steaming, and the fish rice noodles in the pot are fragrant.
You can rely on mountains to eat mountains, and you can rely on water to eat water.
Anping County is close to the Wei River and is rich in fish and shrimp resources. Fish buns, fish rice noodles, etc. are all special snacks here.
Li Jun shrugged his nose and smelled the tempting fragrance, but he was not ready to buy it or eat it.
After leaving the prostitute alley, Li Jun walked towards the fish market. Today he planned to buy some mussels and crabs and cooked them himself.
When we arrived at the fish market, we smelled a strong fishy smell before we even entered, which was almost nauseating.
"Sister Xiuzhu, weigh me a few kilograms of river mussels and a basket of crabs. I want them all."
Li Jun is rich and powerful.
"okay!"
The fish seller's name is Bai Xiuzhu, and she has a very good relationship with Li Junyuan. To be precise, she pities this young man very much.
He had no father or mother since he was a child, so he grew up alone. He finally married his mother-in-law, but her mother-in-law disliked him for being poor and ran away with him.
Bai Xiuzhu quickly grabbed a few big river clams, cut open the shells, dug out the clean meat, wrapped them in lotus leaves, and handed them to Li Jun.
"Li Jun, have you found a job?" Bai Xiuzhu washed her hands with the fish water.
Start chattering.
"If you can't find any work, you can go fishing with my father and you won't starve to death. I'll give you this dead fish to eat."
"I'll give you half the price for that basket of crabs. You can take the ten cents away. Hey, mussels and crabs are not good things. Those who eat too much will get sick. How pitiful."
The crabs and mussels in this world are very cheap, and rich people will never eat them.
The poor only buy some when they are hungry for meat.
Bai Xiuzhu obviously thought that Li Jun was greedy for meat again, so she simply gave him a dead fish for nothing.
"Damn girl."
Suddenly, a loud shout came: "This fish has just died, and it doesn't smell bad. How can you give it away for nothing? Is there anyone as wasteful as you?"
A strong man in coarse cloth trotted over, snatched the dead fish from Li Jun's hand, and glared at Li Jun fiercely.
This man is Bai Xiuzhu's father. Li Jun calls him Uncle Bai.
"Uncle Bai, hello." Li Jun smiled lightly.
Uncle Bai was stunned. He obviously felt that Li Jun had changed. In the past, Li Jun always looked submissive when he saw him.
When have you ever had such a calm temperament?
Li Junyuan was particularly afraid of Uncle Bai and particularly liked Bai Xiuzhu.
Uncle Bai naturally doesn't want his daughter to marry a poor man. Li Junyuan is not only poor, but also extremely incompetent. If his daughter follows such a man, her life will be ruined.
If you marry Zhuangzi, a fisherman, you can't marry a bastard like Li Jun. Zhuangzi is a bit ugly, and there is no Li Junjun.
But the strong man is strong and can do all kinds of work and fishing, while Li Jun is just an embroidered pillow.
