Lin Xi walked aimlessly in a large circle along the huge college. Fortunately, he had a good sense of direction and carried a college map with him. Otherwise, he would have got lost in this college with many corners and dense buildings.
During this period, Lin Xi walked in a forest just north of his dormitory building. The college is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is full of dense forests. When he came to a small valley in the mountain, Lin Xi found a flat land.
There are only some small stones and gravel chips, and almost no grass grows. Directly in front of the flat land is a huge granite rock wall, surrounded by various unknown green trees.
After just walking around this place, Lin Xi made a decision in his mind and regarded this place as his future training place.
It turned out that Lin Xi had already learned through the student rules and regulations issued by the college that, except for the courses that took up a small part of the time, the college left most of the time to the students themselves. Therefore, he thought of choosing a suitable and quiet place to practice alone.
After choosing a place, Lin Xi was very happy and returned to the dormitory humming a tuneless song. When she opened the door, she saw that the other two roommates still hadn't appeared.
Lin Xi, who was bored, hummed twice, not wanting to stay in this slightly quiet and empty room any longer. After taking a shower and changing into decent clothes, she closed the door with a bang and prepared to go out for a walk.
Take a look and feel the atmosphere of the streets surrounding the college.
The street is very spacious, clean and beautiful, and very lively with people coming and going.
Lin Xi changed into a white deerskin coat and put on thick and bright cowhide boots. After wearing it like this, she actually gained a lot of aristocratic temperament.
"Young Master, you are so pitiful, please give some money to me and my grandson!" At this moment, an old and trembling voice called Lin Xi from the side.
Lin Xi turned his head sideways, and with his gaze, he saw a hand that was as skinny as firewood and only covered with dark brown chicken skin, stretching out and standing in the air.
This hand held an old porcelain bowl facing him.
The old man's withered mouth opened wide, revealing the last few yellow teeth that had not fallen out, and his eyes were full of hope.
The old man's left hand was tightly protecting a little girl of about five or six years old. The little girl was wearing a tattered black jacket, hiding behind her grandfather, with only her head exposed, and a pair of timid eyes staring uneasily.
Linxi.
Being called out by the old man, many people around him stopped in their tracks, including some richly dressed nobles, who were all waiting to watch the excitement.
In the imperial capital of the Noqi Empire, the concept of hierarchy is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. There has been a huge difference in status between the nobles and the common people since ancient times, not to mention that the humble party is a pair of beggars who make a living by begging.
After Lin Xi changed into clothes, her already delicate and resolute face became even more elegant, with two sword-shaped eyebrows slanting into her temples, and a pair of blue eyes that were cold and deep, giving her a full aristocratic look.
The old man's pitiful cry made Lin Xi's heart tighten for no reason. He didn't expect that there were such poor, hungry and cold people in the world, so he was stunned on the spot.
Seeing that the young man with extraordinary clothing and temperament did not move, the old man murmured at the corner of his mouth, trembling and wanted to take back his hand, and left quickly with his granddaughter. The old man thought he had encountered an unreasonable and evil young man. But the little girl behind him was dying
He tugged at the old man's clothes and wanted to leave quickly.
"Old man, do you live near here?" Lin Xi took the initiative to say to the old man after coming back to his senses, with a friendly face.
The old man glanced at Lin Xi with his cloudy eyes, then hurriedly withdrew his gaze and muttered: "Yes, Master."
"Old man, this is my little thought, please keep it." Lin Xi took out a small cloth bag from his arms and put it in the old man's skinny hand. There were almost ninety gold coins in the bag.
The leftovers after buying a parrot on Notch Street the first time.
The onlookers' eyes suddenly widened, and they all sighed: Is this aristocratic boy with water in his head, and he actually gave money to a lowly beggar?
Feeling the heavy feeling coming from the bag, the old man couldn't believe his eyes. There was actually a noble nobleman who would take out a bag of money for him? You know, he and his granddaughter had to endure so many nobles while begging along the way.
He rolled his eyes, made sarcastic comments and shouted angrily. On several occasions, he even received a kick or a whip!
After a brief moment of confusion, the old man spread his right hand and said hesitantly: "Master, I can't take this money."
"Just take it." Lin Xi didn't say much, but always had a smile on his face.
After hearing this, the old man's withered face showed a happy expression, and he kept saying thank you.
At this time, the little girl who had been hiding behind the old man also jumped out happily, smiled sweetly at Lin Xi, showing a few white and small teeth, "Thank you, Master!"
"Master, let's leave first. You are a good person and you will be rewarded." The old man said sincerely, then he took his little granddaughter by the hand and turned around to cross the street to the other side.
Seeing the old man's staggering steps, Lin Xi still couldn't bear it. Suddenly he remembered that when he asked the old man if he lived nearby, the old man murmured "yes", but there were not many houses near Chulin College and the land price was very high.
The grandfather and grandson could afford to live there, and considering the old man's shrinking expression at that time, Lin Xi understood that he might only have a place nearby that could barely accommodate him.
Seeing that the old man and his young granddaughter were wandering in a foreign land, Lin Xi turned around and prepared to catch up and inquire more carefully to see if the old man's settlement problem could be completely solved. After all, less than ninety gold coins, and
It's not a big sum, and no matter how frugal it is, there's no guarantee that the grandfather and grandson will have enough food and clothing in the future.
But what Lin Xi didn't know was that while he was in a daze, an accident happened to the old man.
"You old man, you don't have eyes when you walk. You broke my white jade bracelet. What should I do?"
A handsome young man wearing a gold cotton-padded coat was staring at the ground with his arms folded, a stern smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
The poor old man was lying on the ground with his legs bent, his helpless eyes staring at the pile of broken white jade fragments in front of him, and he struggled to say a sentence: "Master, I didn't mean it.
, please forgive me this time for the sake of my pity."
"I'm sorry, but do you know how much this white jade bracelet cost my young master? Let me tell you, old man, it's a thousand gold coins! It was touched blindly by you without eyesight, and it was gone in an instant. Can you afford to pay for it?"
A big man next to the young man said fiercely, his fierce eyes wide open, as if they were about to burst into flames, and he looked very angry.
The old man did not dare to get up. In fact, he could not get up at all.
After getting help from a kind-hearted young man in a white leather coat, I happily crossed the road with my granddaughter, preparing to return to the home that was drafty but still considered a shelter. Unexpectedly, I suddenly walked straight ahead.
Passing by a young nobleman, his eyes were fixed on the white jade bracelet in his hand, not looking at the road at all. Seeing that it was a nobleman, he hurriedly prepared to get out of the way. But unexpectedly, the young man was almost charging, walking very fast. He walked very fast.
Unable to dodge, the young man's body came forward and collided with his own. The precious white jade bracelet fell out of his hand and shattered to pieces. Seeing this scene, the young man's color suddenly changed, and he pushed him to the ground.
On the ground, even now my waist still hurts terribly.
The old man's granddaughter was very angry when she saw her grandfather being wronged and being pushed to the ground and hurled evil words at her. She opened her mouth and her clear childish voice was full of anger. "It's obviously you."
You accidentally hit my grandpa when you were walking, and you want to make my grandpa pay for it. You are bad people!"
"Baby, what are you talking about?" The big man who just spoke shouted loudly, scaring the little girl.
But the young man waved his hand back, indicating not to say anything further, and then he said: "How can I, a noble young master, still accuse others unjustly? If you break other people's things and deny it, I have to make you pay. If you can't afford it, I will let you."
Give it to the city guards so that you can taste the feeling of imprisonment and being whipped."
The old man's face was pale, and he lowered his head and looked at the pile of debris, his eyes full of regret. At this moment, how he hoped that some kind-hearted people in the crowd of onlookers would come out and say something fair for him, but he felt like
To his dismay, the onlookers turned a deaf ear and only watched the excitement themselves.
"Look at you, you are quite pitiful. You are not a master who can afford to pay a thousand gold coins. If you are given to the city guards, I'm afraid you will suffer a lot. Well, who said that my lord has a lot of money? Let's keep it private.
!" The smile on the young man's lips became even brighter, indescribably feminine.
After hearing these words, the old man's heart rekindled a little fire of hope.
"Master, I can do anything you ask me to do. Although I look older, I can do any job. I can use the money I earn to compensate, okay?" The old man responded cautiously.
The joking look on the young man's face became even more intense.
"Old man, I think you misunderstood. What I said is private. You accept everything from me, and we will have nothing to do with each other after that. As for whether you can save your life under everything I do, it depends on your fate.
"The young man laughed happily, as if he didn't take the old man's life seriously at all.
When there is a conflict or conflict between a noble and a lowly beggar, the noble can kill the beggar without even asking for permission. This is a common rule in the Yanin continent.
Who is this young man? He is the young master of the first family in the Nuoqi Empire! Beating or killing one or two beggars is like squeezing an ant to death, so why should there be any scruples?
The old man lay paralyzed on the ground, his body trembling, and he kept repeating one sentence: "Please forgive me, Master! My granddaughter is still young and she still needs to be taken care of!"
The little girl next to the old man had a look of grief and anger on her face, with crystal tears on her face. She was also pleading, hoping that the boy would not hurt her grandfather.
Unfortunately, the old man's pleading had no effect on the young man. The middle-aged man next to the young man stared at the old man coldly, as if he were looking at a dead person.
Sure enough, a cruel smile appeared on the young man's face, "Since you can't compensate for my white jade bracelet, then we have to keep it private. Violent legs!" The young man's right leg brought up a sinister wind and slashed down from a high place.
The first move he made was a ruthless attack, making it clear that he wanted to kick the old man's body to pieces!
