Chapter 1: Beggars

Dongsheng Shenzhou is ninety million miles wide and as round as the full moon.

There are numerous prosperous capitals in the territory, which are divided into Yongzhou, Yuzhou, and Ningzhou. Each of the three states occupies one side.

Outside Mubing City in Yongzhou, there is an endless stream of people coming and going. This city is the largest city in Yongzhou.

At this time, a white-haired old man in a green gown rode a green bull and slowly followed the crowd into the city. Somehow, the pedestrians were not surprised at all by the old man riding the bull. No one looked at him, and no one came forward.

Talk to him.

"Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to all things..." The white-haired old man sang the incomprehensible words with a smile, but the old man's voice did not ring in the ears of these pedestrians, and they were actually shocked.

"This Dongsheng Shenzhou is indeed the most treasured land in the world. It is truly the blessing of heaven and earth." The old man patted the green cow, and the green cow mooed and shook its tail to drive away mosquitoes, but its speed did not increase.

Mubing City is the largest city in Yongzhou, with countless people coming in and out every day. The city gate is huge, several feet high, and wide enough to accommodate dozens of people entering side by side.

Soon, the old man in green shirt and white hair entered Mu Bing City driving a green ox.

There is no comparison between the city and the outside. There are many bustling streets in the city, the crowds are constantly shouting, and from time to time, there are groups of soldiers wandering around.

The old man drove the green bull along the crowded road. The green bull's huge size did not cause other people to notice it. Along the way, the green bull mooed, and its huge eyes looked at the surrounding stalls from time to time.

Showing joy!

"Alas, there is nothingness behind this bustling scene. Mortals cannot escape the suffering of the six paths of reincarnation." The old man said in a low voice, "Although there are not a few people cultivating these days, and the cultivation sects in this mortal world are large and small, everyone has

I want to transcend life and death, but...this journey is difficult and painful."

While sighing, the green cow did not stop. The cow walked slowly and aimlessly, going wherever it liked, and the old man did not call it to stop.

The old man in green shirt was thinking about other things, but at this moment the green cow stopped there, mooed back and yelled at the old man. Only then did the old man wake up and said: "Why don't you leave?"

Qing Niu replied a few times, then looked forward.

The old man looked in the direction of the green cow and couldn't help but become speechless.

He sighed: "People who cultivate immortality are divided into different levels, and mortals are also divided into rich and poor. This is where those poor people gather."

"You, a Taoist old cow, brought me here. Since you followed the laws of Tao, let me figure out what is worthy of your attention here."

After that, the old man counted with his fingers, and he looked like a street magician, but the old man's expression was focused, he was mumbling words, and his vague aura was very natural, completely different from those street magicians.

The old man opened his eyes with bright eyes and said in surprise: "I didn't expect that after I had not cared about world affairs for countless years, a person whose fate I could not calculate would appear in the mortal world!"

The green bull seemed to be a psychic, turning back with eyes wide open in disbelief, and mooed.

"You have made great achievements today, let's go see what that person looks like." The old man smiled, patted the green cow and walked forward.

Qingniu led the old man in green clothes and drove into the poor area of ​​Mubing City. This was a black area with no color. Pedestrians did not come here at all and stayed away for fear of attracting bad luck.

The beggars are all here. Because Mu Bingcheng is the largest city in Yongzhou and has a large population, there are beggars who come to this city to beg. These beggars cannot be driven away, so Mu Bingcheng thought of a way

, put them all in one area and let them fend for themselves there.

The old man in green shirt sighed again, and the green cow attracted the attention of others for the first time. Its arrival attracted the dim eyes of the beggars, who all got up and rushed forward.

"Please give me some money!"

"Help me! I'm going to starve to death!"



For a moment, all the beggars here gathered around Qing Niu. The old man on his back looked at these beggars but did not pity them. Instead, he whispered: "Since you have become beggars, it means giving up your dignity, and you

Many of them are lazy and lazy people!”

As the old man spoke, his aura grew stronger and stronger, causing the beggars to feel inexplicably flustered, but don't forget, they are still beggars.

"What is a magician doing here? It's really unlucky. I wasted all my energy and was thirsty!" A beggar walked back to his site with disdain, lay down on the ground and ignored the old man.

Another beggar said: "Don't say it's useless if you don't give me money!" Then he also returned.

The beggars scolded the old man one after another, but the old man did not have any temper. He just sighed silently: "Let nature take its course. It is in line with nature. I shouldn't say those words to them. Since they chose it, it is God's will."

The old man did not leave. The green bull knelt on the ground with its front hooves. The old man got down from it and walked towards the group of beggars.

The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the place exuded a musty smell. The beggars felt nothing, but the pedestrians who passed by here did evil and ran away.

"Why don't you leave, you idiot!" a beggar said angrily.

The old man in green shirt didn't look at him, his eyes were fixed on a young man beside him.

This boy was fifteen or sixteen years old, with unkempt hair and a dirty face. He was no different from the beggars here, but his bright eyes were very attractive.

This young man was the only beggar who did not rush towards the old man. The old man smiled slightly, put his hand in his sleeve, and a piece of silver appeared in his hand.

Then, the old man took out the ingot of silver, lowered his body and placed it in the beggar's bowl next to the young man.

When the silver was taken out, its shiny color was very conspicuous in this black area. Some beggars unconsciously changed from lying down to sitting up, and some even swallowed their saliva.

The beggar who was given alms widened his eyes and couldn't believe that this was true, but the ingot of silver was in the bowl in front of him. He picked up the ingot of silver with trembling hands, put it to his mouth and took a bite.

"Really! Really! This is real! Hahaha..." The beggar laughed.

This voice immediately aroused the greed of the beggars, and their eyes were full of jealousy. However, because that man was considered to be physically strong among these beggars, no beggars dared to fight for him.

"Haha, I have to go to Miaoqixiang this time for a good meal!" The beggar ran out without thanking the old man.

The old man was still staring at the young man, and the young man was also looking at the old man with clear eyes, but there was no greed in his eyes.

"The true nature of a beggar is that he will not be jealous of a rich man with millions of dollars, but he will definitely be jealous of a beggar with a higher income." The old man has a clear heart and knows people's hearts well.

Immediately, the old man knelt down and looked at the young man.

The old man asked kindly: "Why didn't you come up with them at the beginning? Why didn't you covet the ingot of silver?"

The young man was startled. He didn't expect the old man in green clothes to speak to him. His big, pure eyes without a trace of impurity were shining brightly at this moment. He said without thinking: "When you first came here, your clothes were flat on both sides. If you put money in them, it would be

It creates an imbalance; and it is true that one bite of silver can leave teeth marks. Just now Liu Laoer almost lost his teeth when he bit into it, so it must be fake!"

The old man in green shirt was slightly surprised. He did not expect that the little beggar in front of him was so observant and smart. Moreover, the little beggar was the one whose fate he had not calculated!

The Dedao Qingniu in the distance also mooed, its eyes looked at the boy, its nostrils changed in size, and its tail swayed randomly.

"Okay, okay, okay." The old man in green said three good words in succession, stood up and said: "You are destined to me, how about I treat you to a meal of Mu Bingcheng's most sumptuous dishes today?"

"Really?" the little beggar asked after wiping his saliva.

The old man smiled, picked up the little beggar, approached the green cow, and put him on the cow's back. The old cow did not lose his temper, but acquiesced to the old man's approach.

The old man stroked his long white beard and led the green cow away from this black area.

After the old man left with the little beggar, the group of beggars lay lazily on the ground, basking in the sun, waiting for the next person passing by.

After all these years, who will remember this scene?

The story of the little beggar unfolds here.
