Mortal Mirror

Li Ergou took the silver, stuffed it into his pocket, and casually asked, "Young Master, what is this 'Essence-Fortifying and Origin-Nurturing Pill'? What's it for?"

Huang Batian's face turned cold and said, "This is not something you should know. Remember, do your job honestly. Don't ask what you shouldn't, don't listen to what you shouldn't, and don't look at what you shouldn't. Alright, it's getting late, hurry up and go, don't delay my important business."

As he spoke, he waved his hand at Li Ergou, a look of impatience on his face.

Li Ergou curled his lips, really wanting to slap him twice, but when he thought about the silver and the pill, he felt much better. Although he didn't know the effect of this Essence-Fortifying and Origin-Nurturing Pill, he figured it was a good thing.

Anyway, he could copy it, so his share was guaranteed.

With a smile on his face, he ran outside. Upon reaching the door, he asked a few people for directions to the clinic and set off.

The night was dark, and there were very few people walking around in the town at this hour. Fortunately, there was still a crescent moon in the sky, so it wasn't completely dark.

The entire Tiangou Town was rectangular in shape, with the best shops located on the main street, including wineries, gambling dens, and brothels, all readily available.

These places had larger storefronts and would hang a few lanterns in front of their doors, adding some color and light to the dark night.

Li Ergou hurried along. The gambling dens were noisy, the taverns were boisterous, and in front of the brothels, flamboyantly dressed women constantly waved at passersby.

A beautiful sister stopped him, her tender little hand grabbing his arm, trying to drag him into the brothel.

Li Ergou had never seen such a scene before. The tender little hand made him feel a shiver all over, a sense of comfort spreading through him. His face immediately turned red, and he shook off the woman's little hand, then quickened his pace and walked forward quickly, looking quite embarrassed.

He had never been in contact with women since he was a child, let alone been touched by a woman, not to mention seeing so many women together. They were dressed gorgeously, smelled fragrant, and were all very beautiful, making his little heart thump wildly.

"Hehehe, hehehe, look at that silly boy, he's running so fast."

"Tch, I think he looks like a dog!"

Li Ergou's heart was racing. Hearing the women's ridicule, he didn't want to pay attention to them. It was said that women were tigers, and he had finally seen it for himself. They not only wanted to eat people, but also made people tremble all over.

He almost ran away, never daring to look back.

Far away from the brothel, he trembled, found a dark corner of a wall, took out the thing between his legs, and aimed a fierce stream at it.

"Damn it, who is it, who is so wicked!"

In the dim light, a beggar in tattered clothes suddenly stood up. The beggar's hair was messy, like an explosion. One eye was normal, and the other eye was squinting outwards, not knowing where he was looking.

This beggar was burly, with a fierce face, holding a broken stick in one hand and a chipped broken bowl in the other. There was still some leftover porridge in the bowl, emitting a sour smell, which was very pungent.

At this moment, he glared at Li Ergou and said, "Damn it, why are you peeing on people? Do you know who I am? Don't you want to live?"

Li Ergou was a little dumbfounded. He was in a hurry just now, and he didn't look carefully in the dark. He didn't expect anyone to be in this corner. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he immediately smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't know anyone was there. I only peed halfway, wait for me, wait for me to finish peeing and then we'll talk."

Li Ergou was really helpless. He immediately turned around and continued to pee, but after being frightened like this, he felt that his thing was a little soft, and he didn't have the strength to pee. Seeing this scene, Li Ergou wanted to cry but had no tears.

The beggar was furious when he saw Li Ergou being so perfunctory, and shouted loudly, "Little brat, you don't know my reputation in the martial world. Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar, the famous Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar, do you know? Look at me, I am the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar."

Li Ergou looked at him with a helpless expression, thinking to himself, who knows what kind of beggar you are? What does it have to do with me if you are the lowest of the low? I don't want to join the Beggar Clan.

Besides, you don't look as good as me, what's the point of yelling? Isn't it just peeing on you? I'll just let you pee back.

Seeing the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar yelling, he was about to speak when he heard a sinister and sharp voice in the darkness say, "Damn it, Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar, I've finally found you."

In the darkness, a dazzling light flashed, and a sharp sword came from the darkness. There was a soft sound of 'poof', and a burst of blood splattered on Li Ergou's face.

"Ouch!" A scream came from the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar's mouth, but it was a sword that had wounded the person's shoulder.

In the darkness, he saw the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar's shoulder flesh rolling, blood flowing non-stop.

He also heard the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar shout loudly, "Damn it, Wu Lao Jiu, isn't it just stealing a little something from your family? Is it necessary to chase me for thousands of miles without giving up? I'll fight you."

Wu Lao Jiu said angrily, "Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar, you're talking nonsense. What you stole was our family's ancestral treasure book. It was bought back by our ancestors with the strength of the entire family, spending a full thousand taels of gold. Do you know how much we paid for this book?

If you are sensible today, return it quickly, otherwise, even if it is thousands of miles away, I will never give up with you."

The two fought together with a few bangs. Li Ergou then realized that the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar was indeed not lying. This guy did have some skills. When he struck out with his palm, there was a whistling wind, scraping people's cheeks.

After fighting a few times, perhaps the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar was injured, or perhaps the wound was painful, he said with a trembling voice, "Damn it, I don't believe I can't shake you off. I'm running."

He suddenly stomped on the ground, and then used this force to instantly fly into the sky. Then he saw him kicking his right leg with his left leg, leaving a few wisps of dust and smoke in the dark night, and gradually drifted away. What a light skill, Li Ergou sighed.

Wu Lao Jiu was not ambiguous either, shouting loudly, "Don't go, even if it's to the ends of the earth, I will not let you go, I will never die... die..."

Under the night sky, only a few afterimages were left, and the two people who had just fought disappeared.

Li Ergou was a little dumbfounded. The battle came and went quickly, as if it were a dream. He thought to himself, could this be considered a bloody case caused by a splash of urine?

If it weren't for the stone slabs on the ground full of cracks, he would have really thought it was all an illusion.

"Good heavens!" He looked down, and the place where the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar had stepped on and flew up, the entire bluestone slab, cracked in the shape of a spider web. The center point within a foot or so had become powder-like gravel.

Based on his many years of being beaten, this kick must have at least seven hundred pounds of force. Good heavens, this Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar did not lie, he was indeed a master.

It was a good thing he didn't fight him, otherwise, even if he was resistant to beatings, he couldn't bear seven hundred pounds of force. At least a few bones would have to be broken. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think that in the future, no matter what, he had to be kind to others, maybe someday he would encounter a master who looked unremarkable on the outside, but was a fierce horse in the bones.
