I Pushed Through The Weird World

Chapter 4 Curse and Hidden Dangers

After the heavy rain, the dark clouds dissipated.

Gu Yan struggled to get up from the ground, took off his shabby clothes and threw them aside. He was naked, grabbed the butcher knife, and entered the house.

In the house, except for a wooden bed, you can see the whole thing at a glance.

On the wooden bed was a patched quilt and several neatly folded clothes.

Putting the butcher's knife within reach, Gu Yan quickly dried his body, grabbed dry clothes and put them on.

When he saw the ferocious black tiger tattoo on his chest, his quick movements froze slightly.

After changing his clothes and touching the cold blade of the butcher knife again, Gu Yan calmed down again after feeling slightly anxious.

The crisis is temporarily over.

But the ferocious black tiger mark on his chest is always reminding Gu Yan: "The stability now is all fake!!!"

Gu Yan took out the meat he had hidden under the bed and chewed it to replenish his lost energy. Then he set some simple warning traps, then he closed his eyes and took a nap while holding the butcher knife, waiting for dawn.

Just this sleep lasted a whole day.

The sun is setting over the western mountains and the sky is gloomy.

"boom!"

A huge crash accompanied by screams came from outside the yard.

Gu Yan, who was sleeping, rolled over and retreated to the corner, looking warily outside the room.

A noisy voice sounded outside the house: "Young man, who can kill a thousand swords and put so many traps at the door!"

Hearing this, Gu Yan frowned: "Li Siping?"

The sky is gloomy outside, and you can vaguely hear the shouts of vendors closing their stalls.

Usually at this time, it is approaching evening.

"Did I sleep all day long?"

He first looked out through a small hole in the wall and found outside the yard, a tall, thick man sitting on the ground with his legs covered and cursing. His body was covered with mud and he looked very embarrassed.

This man is none other than Li Siping, the butcher shop's clerk.

"No, it must be because I haven't returned for a long time, so the butcher shop sent someone to look for me." Gu Yan glanced around, jumped off the bed, and took the thick wooden stick stuck at the door in his hand.

Clang.

The closed wooden door was opened.

When Li Siping heard the news, he saw Gu Yan walking out of the house with a pale face.

"Gu Yan, hold it tender."

Li Siping covered his legs and cursed directly at Gu Yan.

The next moment.

call!

A wooden stick, with a whistling sound, hit his forehead!

Before Li Siping finished speaking, he rolled his eyes and fell into the muddy water.

After knocking Li Siping over with a stick, Gu Yan's body softened and he almost fell to the ground.

"My physique is now comparable to that of an adult. Why do I feel out of breath whenever I exert myself!"

Not caring about dealing with Li Siping, Gu Yan quickly whispered in his heart: "Panel!"

"Essence: 1, Qi: 0, Shen: 1.5.

Talent: Slight knife sense.

Basic knife skills: Xiaocheng (15/50).

Energy: 0.

Status: normal.

Tiger Curse: The tiger was seriously injured and did not want to attract attention, so he chose to give up the pursuit and turned the mark into a curse to absorb your body energy. Your physical strength will be consumed ten times faster until you die.

Note: The consumption is caused by the curse absorbing energy in your body. The frequency limit is fixed and can be alleviated by strengthening your physique. "

Looking at the last line of the panel, Gu Yan's eyes widened.

He jerked off his shirt.

I saw that the lines on the black tiger tattoo were getting deeper and deeper.

Especially those tiger eyes, the strange red light in them almost penetrates the skin and reflects to the outside world!

curse!

The thing you least expected to happen happened!

Gu Yan looked gloomy and sat on the threshold to regain his strength.

"Ten times the consumption!"

His mind was racing.

Fortunately, this does not mean that everything he does is ten times more expensive.

Rather, it means that he has a negative BUFF that continuously absorbs the energy in his body.

According to the panel.

If your physique is strong enough, you can still resist this kind of devouring.

It’s just that the human body has limits.

If the body does not have a certain strength, it will continue to be overdrawn and eventually die suddenly.

With his current physique, Gu Yan suspected that he might only be able to sustain it for a day or two.

“Since you can’t solve these problems on your own, let’s use external help!”

If the government really knew about these things, then there would probably be relevant records in the county annals!

Moreover, the butcher shop is also in trouble.

Meat is not cheap in this world.

Just losing a fat pig is worth no less than seven or eight dollars of silver, which is equivalent to the purchasing power of seven to eight thousand dollars in the previous life.

The key point is that he is still an apprentice with a bad status, and the owner who can monopolize the meat business in a county is not an ordinary person.

In his current state, it is difficult to resist the butcher's pursuit of responsibility.

"In this case, only Li Xiaoli can help me now!"

His courtyard was located on the edge of the street, close to the East City Gate. It was dark at this time, and no pedestrians noticed the movement here.

After resting for a while, your physical strength will be almost restored.

Gu Yan dragged Li Siping into the house, tore his clothes into strips and tied him up before going out panting.

What he was looking for on this trip was Li Xiaoli, whom the county government knew.

Li Xiaoli is a lonely old man in his fifties who is responsible for handling case files in the county government. He only has a nephew who works as an errand in the army in Fucheng and does not come back all year round. He is considered to be of some importance in Xiahe County.

The key is that Li Xiaoli is addicted to alcohol and enjoys meat. He often comes to the butcher shop to buy some meat to make with wine.

Isn't this a typical lonely old man from his previous life?

This kind of person is a good guide.

After discovering that the other party's identity might be helpful to him, Gu Yan took advantage of his identity and naturally got to know the other party little by little.

With the help of his cooking skills in his previous life, he got close to Li Xiaoli and asked about his welfare.

Intentionally, coupled with Gu Yan's confusing age, the other party's need for companionship, and various factors.

Within a year, Li Xiaoli, who was considered to be well-informed, almost regarded him as his own grandson, and more than once wanted to help Gu Yan get a job in the county government.

Originally, this incident had not happened. It is estimated that in another month, Gu Yan would be able to "passively" accept Li Xiaoli's help, change his identity, and start his own class leap.

However, fate is unpredictable.

Fortunately, with the foundation laid in the previous year, I finally got some hope by sneaking into the yamen to inquire about the tiger's records!

Li Xiaoli has accumulated a lot of money over the years and his family has a small amount of money. He lives in the middle of Nan Town in the county seat, some distance away from his Dong Town.

He was pressed for time and didn't want any more accidents.

Along the way, Gu Yan watched the four roads, and from time to time took advantage of the thin blind spots in the pedestrian vision on the road, moving forward like a ghost, using the tracking skills of his previous life to the limit.

When the sky thundered again and almost no pedestrians were seen on the street, Li Xiaoli's small green brick courtyard finally came into view of Gu Yan.

Through the gap in the wall, Gu Yan saw the lights on in the courtyard. He couldn't help but a flash of joy in his eyes, and knocked on the courtyard door outside.

After a while, a strong voice sounded in the yard.

"Who is it!"

crunch.

The courtyard door was opened.

A strong man, who was a full body taller than Gu Yan, was almost leaning against the top of the courtyard gate and stretched out half of his body from the courtyard.

The man has a rough face, a leopard head and eyes.

Just glancing at Gu Yan, a fierce aura rushed towards him!

Gu Yan was hit by this invisible evil spirit and felt a tightness in his chest, as if he had been hit with a sledgehammer. He couldn't help but stumble back a few steps, and his face became paler.

What a man!

In ancient times, this person would have been a peerless general like Zhang Fei and Lu Bu!

Seeing Gu Yan's reaction, the man realized that he had not restrained his aura, and his exposed body retreated slightly, and the evil aura emitted immediately restrained.

"call"

Without the impact of the evil spirit, Gu Yan let out a sigh of relief.

He was just glanced at by the other party.

In just a short moment, his back was already wet with sweat!

This man is not simple!

Thinking of this, Gu Yan's face immediately switched to his most friendly smile: "This big brother, my name is Gu Yan, I came to see Uncle Li for something urgent."

At this time, thunder flashed under the dark clouds in the sky, and the light reflected on Gu Yan's face, faintly shining.

Most people's first impression starts with their face.

Seeing the warm and clean smile of the young man in front of him, the strong man felt inexplicably not the slightest bit disgusted with this young man he had only met once.

He forced an ugly smile and opened the door: "Come in!"

Boom.

Thunder exploded.

After the two of them entered the yard, the accumulated rainstorm was released to the earth again with strong winds.

This night was a little colder.

Please vote, brothers.
