"One, two, three! Let's go!" the leader roared roughly.
Everyone trotted all the way to push the car over the slope, and the whole process was completed in one go.
Lin Chuan's face turned red, and he thought that the sealing spirit stone was really not light. No matter how big it was, he wouldn't be able to bear it. Looking at the men around him who were winking and looking as usual, he felt convinced that he had been plotted by these sneaky grandsons.
After going down the slope, the headman started distributing pancakes, and specially picked a thick and large piece for Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan was not polite and took it with both hands. He slept in the open for half a month and barely had a full meal. Not only did he become pitifully thin, but even Qiao Waner's round face became thinner.
Lin Chuan broke off a piece of the pie and gave it to Qiao Waner beside him, while he hugged the pie and ate it wildly.
Lin Chuan stuffed the remaining half of the cake directly into Wan'er's pocket, declined the invitation from the leader to stay, and headed straight for Licheng with Wan'er.
The last and highest slope three miles away from Licheng is called Sanli Slope. The men gritted their teeth and were deadlocked at the waist of the slope, while the iron wheel was sliding down little by little.
Just as they were about to give up, the car suddenly stopped. The men looked up and saw that there was someone else in the car.
The tall and thin figure, wearing black cloak and black cloak, is exactly Ying Shiqi who has been searching for clues along the way.
"Have you ever seen this person in the painting?" Shadow Seventeen flashed a portrait. The young man in the portrait has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a straight nose, and thin lips. He looks handsome, isn't he?
Who is Lin Chuan?!
All the men kept silent, not because they were loyal, but because they lost their temper when they opened their mouths, and the car started to slide down again.
Shadow Seventeen was displeased at first, but then he realized it after looking at their expressions. He turned over and jumped back, kicking his toes on the rear panel of the car, and the car rushed uphill.
The leader stumbled and almost fell down. Fortunately, he had long legs. He stepped forward violently and followed the car down the slope.
"Can we talk now?" Ying Qiqi asked in a deep voice.
"Huh... I've seen it before... Even though the man smeared mud on his face, he can be seen to be eighty-nine times similar to the person in the painting. He must have entered the city by now." The leader let out a heavy sigh.
He quickly and respectfully replied that he would not dare to lie to such a powerful spiritual master.
"Licheng..." Ying Qiqi squinted and looked at the hazy city and whispered to himself.
"Yes, sir... Huh? Where is the person?" When the leader raised his head, Shadow Seventeen had disappeared.
"Alas... the spiritual master is the spiritual master... he comes and goes without a trace... Hey! Why don't you guys come over quickly and wait for dark to spend the night outside the city?!" The leader wiped the scars on his forehead.
In a cold sweat, he sighed first and then roared when he saw the other men dawdling down the slope.
Licheng is the second largest city in the Eastern Kingdom after Yuyao, the capital of the country. It is rumored that the city lord who guards the city is a female spiritual commander. Lingshuai is a military position title, and her strength is equivalent to that of a spiritual master in the heavenly realm. This woman
Not only is his cultivation extremely high, but his talent and appearance are also among the best.
Outside the city walls of Licheng are piled up with various sealing stones, and outsiders must pass through the city gate guards for interrogation before entering the city.
Lin Chuan and Qiao Wan'er naturally sneaked into the city easily in this state. The spirit generals guarding the city did not take low-level spiritual masters like Lin Chuan seriously at all.
Lin Chuan looked at the children playing and playing in the streets of the city, innocent and well-dressed.
Looking at Wan'er's coarse and tattered clothes next to him, he felt sad, thinking that he could not let Wan'er suffer with him. As long as he did not die, Hua Ran would not give up the pursuit of him. If Qiao Wan'er had been with him all the time, he would not only suffer hardships but also suffer the consequences.
There is fear for life.
But he couldn't leave her alone. Regardless of his relationship with Wan'er, Lin Chuan's character would not leave her alone based on Wan'er's pitiful life experience. According to Lin Xichun, Qiao Wan'er was not the biological child of the Qiao family.
, but was picked up from a wooden basin floating in the river to Midi Village. In addition, Qiao Wan'er is the only person with a spirit in the village. The kindness of the people in the village is hidden from Wan'er. She doesn't know that she still has a mystery about her life experience.
If she falls into the hands of someone with sinister intentions at such a young age, the consequences will be unimaginable. I can only hope to meet a kind-hearted person and entrust Wan'er to them, so that I can settle down and complete my revenge.
Lin Chuan recovered his thoughts and lowered his head but did not see Qiao Wan'er. He turned around and couldn't help but laugh. Wan'er was standing in front of an old woman selling candied haws, her big eyes unblinkingly looking at the candied haws in the old woman's hand, her saliva hanging on the porcelain white roundness.
His chin is in danger.
He called "Wan'er" several times, but she ignored him. Lin Chuan smiled bitterly and shook his head. He went back and took her little hand before taking her away.
Suddenly, a porcelain bowl rolled to the foot of Linchuan. It swayed for a while before stopping. There were many gaps in the mouth of the bowl, and the inside of the bowl was full of black dirt.
Lin Chuan followed the path of the porcelain bowl and saw an old beggar lying on the corner of the street, looking at him with a half-smile.
Lin Chuanxin said, "What are you looking at? We are both miserable and pitiful. You must be crazy to beg from me." She avoided the black bowl and prepared to leave, but Wan'er held on to the corner of his clothes and refused to leave, with a pitiful face.
He looked at the old beggar sadly.
The old beggar had a greasy head and dirty face, and a rotten smell emanated from his linen clothes full of holes. He was still looking at him with a half-smiling smile.
Lin Chuan frowned and sighed. After all, he couldn't resist Qiao Waner and nodded to her.
Wan'er took out the remaining half of the cake from her sleeve pocket, ran over and handed it to the old beggar with both hands as if she was offering a treasure.
The old beggar took the noodle cake, and without looking at Wan'er, he grinned at Lin Chuan, showing his white and neat teeth, took a small bite of the noodle cake, and chewed it slowly.
Lin Chuan was stunned when he saw it, and thought to himself, are these the kind of teeth a beggar should have?
I thought about bending down to pick up the porcelain bowl, but there was still a shadow of the porcelain bowl. When I looked up, I saw that it was the same porcelain bowl at the old beggar's feet.
"Let's go, Wan'er." Could it be that he was dazzled just now? Lin Chuan scratched his head. This sloppy old beggar looked weird in everything, so it was best to leave quickly.
The sky was getting dark, and in the streets and alleys of Licheng, Lin and Chuan were walking slowly looking around.
"Brother Achuan, Wan'er is hungry..." Qiao Wan'er looked up at Lin Chuan and said weakly with a flushed face.
"While it's still dark, let's try a few more houses. There will definitely be someone who needs a nursing home worker. When I find a job, we won't be hungry anymore." Lin Chuan touched Wan'er's head.
He said softly, his stomach was also complaining.
The two of them stood in front of a vermilion-red door. There was a plaque on the door with the word "Jia Mansion" engraved on it. In front of the door squatted two stone lions as tall as one person, which was really impressive.
"Wan'er, externally we treat each other as brothers and sisters. From now on, people will call me brother. Remember!" Lin Chuan lowered his head and warned softly.
Wan'er nodded sensibly.
Lin Chuan took a deep breath and stepped forward to knock the door twice. On the third knock, the door suddenly opened, and a head with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks poked out, startling Lin Chuan.
"Is this a place where you can come? Go away and beg for food!" Jianzui shouted at Lin Chuan, and then he was about to close the door.
"I'm not a beggar. I just saw the recruitment notice posted by your mansion on the city wall, so I came to your mansion to get a job as a nurse! May I ask who you are from your mansion?" Lin Chuan smiled stiffly and held up one hand.
