I rely on talismans to seek longevity

Chapter 20: Great Gains from the First Job Application

Luo Ling hurriedly ran outside, and after searching for a while, he finally found the yellow skin that had already smoked. Then he grabbed its tail with one hand and twisted it. At this time, other people in the Qin Mansion heard the noise and ran over. Seeing Luo Ling, everyone stared at the yellow skin in his hand. The old housekeeper came over and took a look: "Brother Luo, your calculations are really accurate. This guy really came to take revenge. Now it's good, finally this supernatural incident has been solved." After speaking, he asked someone to deal with the yellow skin, but no one dared. Luo Ling had to go out and deal with it himself and burned it with fire. He got two green beads, which looked a bit like emeralds, and Luo Ling put them away.

The old housekeeper dispersed everyone, and Luo Ling continued to rest. Perhaps because of the fight, Luo Ling fell asleep quickly. At dawn, you can hear all kinds of hawking. In the town, many things are carried around first, usually shouted and walked, and finally sold in a fixed place.

Luo Ling woke up on time, finished his training, and walked out. After taking a few steps, he saw the old housekeeper hurried over and smiled: "Brother Luo, you worked hard last night. Did you rest well?"

Luo Ling also greeted the old butler: "You had a good rest."

The old housekeeper: "Let's go and have breakfast. The master is waiting for you!"

Luo Ling and the old housekeeper walked through a courtyard and came to the living room, where they saw more than ten kinds of snacks on the table, all of which were very exquisite. When Master Qin saw Luo Ling coming, he quickly stood up and asked Luo Ling to sit down and have breakfast.

Luo Ling took a piece of exquisite osmanthus cake, which was made of many layers and was crystal clear. After taking a bite, it had a faint fragrance of osmanthus, sweet but not greasy, and a little chewy, very delicious.

Master Qin kept looking at Luo Ling. After he finished a piece of osmanthus cake, he asked, "Brother Luo, is it tasted okay?"

Luo Ling: "Master Qin, you are too polite. It is so delicious. I have never eaten it before."

Mr. Qin: "Oh, where are you from?"

Luo Ling: "From this town, Luojia Village."

"Wow, I didn't expect that there is a heroic young man like you in our town. Not bad, not bad." Master Qin said while stroking his beard.

The old housekeeper said, "It's mainly because our head guard has gone home to visit his family these days, and the previous guards have also gone back, so this happened. Oh, this is a hundred taels of silver, Brother Luo, keep it."

Luo Ling took the banknote and looked at it again and again. He couldn't believe that it was worth one hundred taels. But he still believed in this old master Qin. Old master Qin seemed to see Luo Ling's worry and said, "This is a banknote from Wanbao Pavilion. It can be exchanged at any Wanbao Pavilion."

Luo Ling asked doubtfully: "Wanbao Pavilion?"

Master Qin laughed loudly: "Look at me, you forgot that this is Brother Luo's first time traveling far away. Wanbao is the largest chamber of commerce in our continent. It does not belong to any country. They only do business and do not ask about the political power of various countries. In our Daqian Dynasty, as long as it is a city, there will be corresponding shops in it. So you can rest assured."

Luo Ling accepted the banknote without question and finished his breakfast soon. The old housekeeper found a carriage and a driver, and then said, "Old Li, this is Brother Luo. Are you responsible for sending him out of the county town? Our master will pay for the expenses."

Old Li was a middle-aged man in his 50s, with a face full of vicissitudes. He looked very experienced. He probably had not been out there for long. He also looked at Luo Ling and nodded. Then the old housekeeper handed Luo Ling another package: "There are some dry food in it, and the master has prepared some books for you. I hope it will be useful to you."

Luo Ling clasped his fists to the old housekeeper: "Master Qin is so thoughtful. Please thank Master Qin for me."

Old Li pulled up the carriage, asked Luo Ling to get in, and then walked out. The old housekeeper waved to Luo Ling and shouted, "Brother Luo, next time you come back, remember to come and see our master. Be safe on the road."

Old Li whipped the horse's buttocks, then shouted, "Go!" The carriage started running. Luo Ling had only ridden in ox carts before, not horse carts. Ox carts moved very slowly and swayed. The horse cart was running quite fast. Luo Ling looked around, very curious.

Old Li seemed to see that this was Luo Ling's first time going out, and asked, "Is this your first time going to the county town, Brother Luo?"

Luo Ling: "Uncle Li, yes."

Old Li smiled and said, "You don't have to call me Uncle Li, just call me Old Li. Everyone calls me that. I often drive a carriage on this road, so I'm very familiar with it. In less than 10 days, we can reach the county city. That is, Broken Moon City."

Luo Ling was surprised and said, "10 days? That's pretty fast. If I had gone by myself, it would have taken at least 15 days."

Old Li said, "Brother Luo is a martial artist, otherwise it would take an ordinary person 10 days to walk to the county town."

Luo Ling said modestly: "I have been practicing for some time, but my skills are still not up to par?"

Old Li laughed: "Brother Luo is really modest. Judging from the old housekeeper's attitude towards you, you are definitely not an ordinary person." Then he continued: "This is the first time I see him being so polite to someone. Master Qin was once the Shangshu Lord, a seventh-rank official of the prime minister's family. You must have heard of this."
