Chapter 22 The Biggest Time Bomb
Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading! Don't forget to spread the word.
After explaining to the three sisters of the Yu family that the herringbone-shaped room is this size, and that the inn does not provide a dressing table to enter the door and other common sense issues, Jiang Beiran finally settled all five junior sisters into the room, although this time they five All are a hundred reluctance.
"boom."
Closing the door of his own room, Jiang Beiran breathed a sigh of relief. These five daughters were even more lacking in common sense than when they first came here. In their worldview, the inn could provide silk quilts and purple forest grass. Incense and flower bath, etc.
This made Jiang Beiran curious about what kind of inn they used to live in, because as far as he knew, even the Tianzihao rooms in some county towns would not provide these luxuries.
‘Is it true that being rich means doing whatever you want? ’
After taking a short rest, Jiang Beiran took off his obscured suit, put on an inconspicuous sackcloth and walked out of the inn. It was rare to go down the mountain once. Of course, he had to go out and trigger several more options.
...
"Hey! Master Wu is here, what are you going to do today?"
"Get me two pieces of fat meat and chop it into a puree, the more chopped the better."
"Okay~ You can take a look."
Passing by a meat stall, Jiang Beiran, who heard the conversation, watched the owner of the butcher chop two pieces of top-quality front leg meat into puree, then carefully pulled out two pieces of bamboo hemp paper, wrapped them separately, and skewered them with a string. up.
"Master Wu, your meat is ready, a total of 20 wen."
The strong man who was called Master Wu by the owner of the meat stall took the meat and said casually: "Old rules, credit first, and we will settle it together at the end of the month."
The meat stall owner's face collapsed after hearing this, and his tone was both nervous and flattering: "Master Wu... You were..."
"Yep!?"
Just as the meat stall owner was halfway through his words, the brawny man named Wu Ye gave him a stern look.
"Why, can't you believe me Wu Kui?"
The courage that the meat stall owner finally mustered up just now disappeared in an instant, and he repeatedly said with apologetic smiles: "How dare you, how dare you, the little one is just asking casually, just asking casually, you go slowly."
At the same time, three options popped out in front of Jiang Beiran's eyes.
[Option 1: Go forward and help the meat stall owner to do justice. Completion Reward: Sirius Sword (Yellow Rank High Grade)]
[Option 2: Take action secretly and teach Wu Kui a lesson. Completion Reward: Pilu Helmet (Yellow Grade Middle Grade)]
[Option 3: Stay where you are. Completion Reward: Random Basic Attribute Point +1]
After choosing three, Jiang Beiran looked at Wu Kui and said "sensible", then left dashingly and disappeared at the corner of the street.
"Hey...how are you going to live these days?" The meat stall owner sighed with a melancholy face, and finally couldn't help but pick up the cloth on the chopping board and put it in front of his eyes, and wiped it again and again.
"Boss, bring two catties of pork."
The owner of the meat stall, who was suffering, quickly put down the cloth and said with a big smile, "Okay, which part of the meat do you want?"
"Neck meat, let's have some pig ears."
"As soon as you hear it, the guest is an expert. Do you need to cut it for you?"
"No need, just give it to me directly."
"One piece of neck meat~one piece of pig ears~ Come, you can keep it, the pig ears are cheaper, you can just give 18 cents."
"The money is here."
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll count... Hey, where are you going!? Hey! Come back! I haven't counted yet! Come back!
But as soon as the meat stall owner chased out the stall with a knife, he found that the young customer had disappeared from the crowd, and he could not find it no matter how much he looked for.
"Damn it! Don't let Lao Tzu catch you! I caught Lao Tzu and peeled you off!"
As soon as he finished yelling, the owner of the meat stall saw a group of townspeople looking over. In anger, he waved his kitchen knife and shouted, "What are you looking at! Go your way!"
Seeing that the meat stall owner was already crazy, the townspeople who were yelled at didn't dare to answer, and dispersed.
"Ugh……"
When all the onlookers left, the meat stall owner sighed, his body seemed to have lost all strength.
Returning to the meat stall with a blank eye, the boss glanced at the small cloth bag that had been placed in the corner of the stall just now.
"Damn it!"
The meat stall owner roared and took the cloth bag and was about to throw it on the ground, but found that there seemed to be some weight inside. Although he thought it was unlikely to be money, the meat stall owner still pulled the cloth bag away with a glimmer of hope.
"this!?"
The meat stall owner's eyes widened, because it contained three pieces of silver.
"Three...three coins!?"
The meat stall owner shouted in disbelief.
Suddenly looking up again in the direction where the young man disappeared, the boss of the meat stall owner opened his mouth.
In the end, he came to his senses, "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" He kowtowed three times, and slapped himself hard.
"I told you to kill a thousand knives, and you didn't even say thank you to your benefactor!"
After scolding himself, the meat stall owner swears in his heart that if he sees his benefactor next time, he must thank him well, but he can't remember what the young man looks like.
'It's strange... I can remember the face of every guest, but I forgot the appearance of my benefactor! ? oops! Wang Fugui, ah Wang Fugui! You are so stupid! It's useless in a pinch! ’
After he finished speaking, he gave himself a slap in the face.
At this time, Jiang Beiran, who was carrying two packs of meat, had come to the end of the street, thinking about the expression of the boss when he went back and saw that there were three coins in the cloth bag.
'Well, it's not easy for everyone to survive in this troubled world, that's all I can help. ’
Although various tragic encounters made Jiang Beiran determined to be a refined egoist when he first crossed over, he was still unable to maintain his "hard heart" after seeing countless tragic encounters with the common people.
To this end, after carefully studying the various meanings of the system options, he formulated a complete set of "helping rules".
To put it simply, on the premise that his own safety can be guaranteed, under which circumstances he can turn a corner and help.
First of all, people who often have the opportunity to contact cannot help, such as those senior brothers in Guixin Sect, whether they know or don’t know, Jiang Beiran will not bypass the system’s options to help, because it is easy to provoke follow-up event.
For example, this time Liu Zijin will find him, which is very likely because Jiang Beiran is always hard-hearted when he is an iron seal.
Most of the time, Jiang Beiran, who knew that he had to keep a low profile, would try to make himself look very "ordinary" when he did everything, so when he was Tie Yin several times, he thought about deliberately not doing it, causing the new disciple's trial mission to fail. So that the 100% success rate of the iron seal on your file can be less eye-catching.
But whenever those little brothers looked at themselves helplessly and asked, "Senior brother, what should I do?" Jiang Beiran couldn't help himself. In the end, he could only use "Anyway, the system didn't pop up an option to remind me that I maintain this success rate." There will be danger' this reason to console yourself.
This led to his high iron seal reputation. Although Jiang Beiran told them not to promote himself, it was inevitable that there would be a few accidents like Liu Zijin.
The second is that Jiang Beiran will not help when words such as [stay away from this place], [passing by], [do nothing] and other words appear in the system options.
Under these two absolute preconditions, sometimes Jiang Beiran would also help those oppressed people as a reward for a little attribute or a little skill.
...
Two hours later, Jiang Beiran, who had triggered nearly a dozen options, was satisfied, and was not ready to continue "walking" around the town streets.
It's not that he thinks he has too many points, but once he triggered the options 30 times in a row in a day, and felt that after he had made all the money, he went out the next day and found that the system options suddenly didn't come out.
This made Jiang Beiran, who was used to relying on options to avoid disasters, very insecure and insecure. He stayed in the room for a whole day and did not go out. After that, the options returned to normal on the third day. At the same time, Jiang Beiran understood that he could not go too far. Trigger system options, otherwise the latter will "strike".
In addition, after walking down this night, he not only gained a lot of points, but also gained a preliminary understanding of the evil forces in Luoxia Town.
Before transmigration, Jiang Beiran always admired the heroes who acted in chivalry and punished evildoers when he read martial arts novels, but after transmigrating into this world, he suddenly discovered that these "heroes" are sometimes actually related to the underworld. No difference.
Are there any heroes who truly serve the country and the people without asking for anything in return? Of course there are, but very, very few.
Many rangers or Qingxia formed various gangs at every turn, and often became brothers with different surnames, forming one force after another. In the eyes of these forces, there is no national law, only the rules of the rivers and lakes. If someone dares to violate these rules, there will be others. Acting as a judge, come to a conclusion.
And when such a force expands enough, it becomes an extremely powerful force.
Some of them developed into "cults" in the eyes of officials and decent people, and some of them formed heroic clans with strong clan and familial colors.
Here, the patriarch is the boss, the family law is the gang rules, and all the gang members share weal and woe like a family.
Regardless of whether it is a cult or a heroic clan, there is never a shortage of masters. After all, not every cultivator is brave, and he cultivates his skills to repay the society and benefit mankind.
Most of them are for selfishness.
So even if it's just a stronger ruffian in a certain town, after someone beat him up, he found out that he was actually a member of a certain sect or a certain gang.
Suddenly, he took out a cannonball and shouted at you: "One cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops will meet!"
The most important thing for these gangs is face. Even if the peripheral member you fight has nothing to do with them, they will come out in full force. There is no other reason, it is because you do not give face to their gang members.
Therefore, whenever Jiang Beiran goes to a new place, he will check whose chassis is here while triggering the option, so as to prevent it from happening.
And the investigation process is also very simple, as long as you go to those wine shops or small houses, it won't take long before you hear a few pranksters shouting, "We're here today!" XX meeting face?"
For example, when Jiang Beiran was passing by a tavern just now, he heard a drunk man shouting: "Brother, don't worry, in Luoxia Town, as long as you call me the name of Huang Bangma, everyone will give you three points of face. "
Jiang Beiran heard the name Huang Gang many times when he went down the mountain. It is a gang organization that has emerged in recent years. I heard that there are masters at the level of great profound masters in this gang, so the development speed is quite fast.
After earning enough points and knowing the information he needed to know, Jiang Beiran walked back to the inn and entered his room.
After closing the door and lighting the oil lamp on the square table, Jiang Beiran sat down and took out a few uran grass from the Qiankun Ring.
In the end of the day, the performance of the obliterate suit was very good, so that the five junior sisters did not attract any attention at all, so Jiang Beiran decided to continue to improve this suit and further strengthen its hidden performance.
This research was carried out into the middle of the night. Looking at the dozens of straw hats with different images on the table, Jiang Beiran fell into contemplation, thinking about what other functions could be added.
"Ha~"
Thinking about it, Jiang Beiran yawned and felt a sense of drowsiness, and put all the straw hats into the Qiankun Ring, and decided to talk about it tomorrow.
After chewing a "mouth fragrant pill" made by himself with pure heart grass, Jiang Beiran, who had finished oral cleaning, was about to fall on the bed when he saw three options pop up.
[Option 1: Go to sleep directly. Completion Reward: Douzhuanxingzhu (earth-level middle-grade)]
[Option 2: Go and tell the junior sisters not to run around. Completion Reward: Golden Snake Capture Crane Fist (Xuan-level mid-grade)]
[Option 3: Go to the entrance of the inn to observe secretly. Completion Reward: Random Basic Skill Point +1]
The rewards of the middle grade of the prefecture level directly scare Jiang Beiran, so why sleep? Decisively chose the third queen, Jiang Beiran, took out a set of his special night clothes from the Qiankun ring and put it on, turned out the window, and came to the door of the inn.
In less than ten minutes, Jiang Beiran saw a figure walking out of the inn. It was Fang Qiuyao, who should have been obediently staying in the room now, but fortunately, she was still wearing the obscure suit.
'Oh... this girl really is the biggest ticking time bomb. ’
Jiang Beiran thought that her words in the afternoon would wake her up a bit, so she wanted her to digest it slowly, but now it seems that she digested the loneliness...
Looking out, she found that no one was paying attention to her. Qiuyao swaggered out of the inn and walked towards the place where the tofu brain stall was overturned when they first arrived.
At the same time, three options appeared in front of Jiang Beiran.
[Option 1: Take Fang Qiuyao back to the inn. Completion reward: Qingyun Dance (high-grade Xuan level)]
[Option 2: Make Fang Qiuyao aware of your existence and consciously go back to the room. Completion Reward: Swallowtail Spear (Xuan-level low-grade)]
[Option 3: Follow her quietly. Completion Reward: Random Basic Skill Point +1]
Seeing these three options, Jiang Beiran thought for a while and then understood the meaning of the system.
'Is this a plan to let this girl be beaten by the society? ’
Shrugging, Jiang Beiran thought it was a good idea, so he chose three, and jumped on the roof to keep up with Fang Qiuyao quietly.
PS: The 4000-word chapter, two chapters are combined into one chapter, otherwise there will be a very ecstasy broken chapter. (I'm afraid of your blades)
