The First Cause of All Realms

Chapter 18: late autumn is coming

The red sun leaps eastward, and the morning light breaks.

The sun that is not warm brings a touch of warmth to the earth.

Qingzhou is located in the northwest. It is extremely hot in summer and extremely cold in winter, but at this time, it was just after the beginning of autumn, and the weather suddenly turned cold.

On the streets of Heishan City, there were already a lot fewer pedestrians, but there were not too many vendors on the side of the road, but more.

At this time of year, the best birthday is the charcoal seller who pushes a wooden cart to sell along the street.

This is a villager from a nearby village who has prepared charcoal for several months to come to the city in exchange for some necessary supplies.

"Cough, cough, cough~"

The rickety old man wearing only a thin rag was turning over the charcoal, suddenly feeling a lot quieter, coughing and raising his head.

I saw a few scrawny men walking over with each other's arms.

"you you…"

The old charcoal seller trembled, and bitterness flashed across his wrinkled face, he handed over the gray-black copper plate:

"A few, a few masters, that's all the little old man..."

"Who, who wants your money?"

When the man with a stubble face saw the copper plates, he seemed to be taking a few steps back when he was electrocuted.

He was too weak, and this time he moved too violently, and it took a while to recover before panting heavily.

Under the astonished gazes of all the pedestrians, he gritted his teeth and handed over pieces of silver:

"Buy, buy charcoal! I want this car..."

The old man was stunned, and the rest of the people who bought and sold charcoal were also shocked.

It wasn't until the old man pushed the wooden cart and followed him away that he started to talk about it.

"Isn't this the scumbags from the Viper Society? Why did they change their sex?"

Someone was surprised.

There are also people who understand and gloat at the misfortune: "It is said that these few straight thieves have provoked people they shouldn't. In the past three months, no matter where they go, they will be beaten violently."

"Ah? They are members of the Viper Society. Who dares to beat them? The Viper Society, don't care?"

The man was even more surprised.

The Viper Club was originally a small gang in the outer city, and after joining the royal family in the inner city, it quickly rose to become a tyrant on the North Street.

They act extremely greedy and cruel, who would dare to provoke them?

"Manage? How?"

Someone sneered: "However, with a few little **** patrolling the streets, can the Viper Gang guard them every day?"

"Furthermore, if they were beaten like this, how could the poisonous snake want them?"

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and many people felt extremely happy.

This group of people ran rampant on North Street, and I don't know how many people they harmed. The yamen arrested and released several times, and many people wished that they would die immediately.

Seeing them look like this, they naturally feel very happy.

"These people seem to be familiar, as if they came to the teahouse to receive monthly payment?"

On the third floor of the restaurant, Li Eryi retracted his gaze and looked at Yang Yu, who was eating and drinking by himself, his eyelids couldn't help jumping.

Compared with more than two months ago, Yang Prison is at least half a head taller. Although he is still a little thin, he is extremely refined.

Well-proportioned and full of energy.

If he hadn't seen him change, Li Eryi would never have believed that the person in front of him would be the skinny boy from before.

Thoughts flashed in his mind, seeing that the table was about to be swept away, Li Eryi hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab it:

"How come your appetite is getting bigger and bigger? I'm afraid one meal won't be enough for me for three to five days!"

"Huh!"

After dipping the remaining steamed buns into the soup and eating them, Yang Yu patted his stomach with a satisfied expression:

"Just having dinner with you is the most comfortable."

"I bother!"

At the mention of these words, Li Eryi jumped up and became angry:

"You brat is as thick-skinned as a city wall. I'm afraid that the money in the past two months is more than mine, and you come to me from time to time to eat and drink!"

Li Eryi blew his beard and stared.

Two months ago, when the two of them set up the document, this kid suggested that if the daily income after deducting the necessary costs does not exceed one or two, then he will not take a penny.

At that time, of course, he fully agreed.

Thinking about it now, it's a blood loss.

But I also have to admire this kid. You must know that he walked three times a day and played six games, and he only made eight or nine coins at most.

How could he dare to gamble like that?

"How to divide the money, but you agreed."

Yang Yu slowly took a sip of tea and said:

"I spend more money than you do. This time, I want to advance a year's worth of money."

"What second half year?"

Li Eryi was stunned for a moment, but when he came to his senses, he immediately put his hands in afterimages:

"You think my money belongs to you? Do you know how many people I'm going to pay? How much money?! You've already paid in advance for half a year.

Do you want to pay for another year in advance? ! "

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse."

After getting along for two months, Yang Yu's reaction was naturally clear in his heart, and he didn't say much, just dropped a note:

"After you sign this receipt, all the proceeds will be yours!"

"Um?!"

Li Eryi's heart trembled, and after reading the documents carefully, he was serious and shocked:

"Are you going to 'exchange blood'?!"

It was just his habit to tease Yang Yu that he ate a lot.

He naturally knows that Yang Prison spends money like running water, and he also knows that these days, he is in a medicinal bath, and his progress is visible to the naked eye.

But it's still a little weird.

Although he only has some superficial skills, he relies on hidden arrows and hidden weapons to walk the rivers and lakes, but of course he knows a lot about 'exchange blood'.

Ordinary people exchange blood, even if it succeeds once and everything goes smoothly, it will take at least half a year or more than a year.

This kid, why is he a martial arts genius? !

"good."

Yang Yu nodded, with hope and longing in his eyes.

In the past two months, he discussed the story with Li Eryi in the early morning.

Also practicing knives.

Apart from the few little pranksters who occasionally went out to beat the Viper Gang, he hardly had any entertainment or pastime.

His hard work was not in vain.

On the ninety-ninth day of his medicated bath, that is, yesterday, he finally felt the opportunity to exchange blood.

Just one more time, he can 'exchange blood'.

"me…"

Li Eryi paced back and forth, wanting to refuse, but was reluctant to give up the letter, and walked back and forth for dozens of steps before sitting down panting.

With a painful look on his face, he took out the last silver note and broken silver, and signed his name.

Then he collapsed on the chair as if he collapsed.

Before he came to Heishan City, he never thought that he, who just wanted to make some money, even took out the coffin book.

"Thank you, Old Li!"

Yang Yu sincerely thanked him and reached out to get the silver note.

Li Eryi pressed it tightly: "You, do you leave some for me too?"

slap!

Yang Yu pressed his finger on the table lightly, and Li Eryi seemed to jump up when he was electrocuted.

"My money~~"

Li Eryi groaned and couldn't bear to look anymore.

"Go, go."

Hearing the footsteps go away, Li Eryi sighed and looked at his back:

"I hope you can succeed..."

"what?"

After a long while, Li Eryi recovered from the pain of losing money, and was about to leave when he caught a glimpse of a mess of yellow paper on the table.

"Is there any unfinished story in the Water Margin?"

Li Eryi was surprised. After all, he couldn't help but bring it over out of curiosity, and read out in his mouth:

"Ximen Qingre made ten brothers, Wu Erlang met his brother and sister-in-law coldly..."
