Let's walk together for the rest of our lives. If the host says to leave, she will leave.

Jiang Nian had no idea what Gu Ling was up to, and before he could finish his words, he saw Gu Ling exert force and throw the stone lion up.

Jiang Nian: (?｀?Д?′)!!

The huge stone lion was thrown into the air, spun a few times, and with a "boom" sound like a bomb, it landed precisely in front of the rice merchant.

The stone lion smashed a big hole in the ground. With such great power, if it had hit a little higher, the rice merchant would have turned into rice cakes.

The people around were stunned. The rice merchant's legs went weak, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Gu Ling looked at Jiang Nian: "Wake him up."

Jiang Nian obediently used a little spiritual power to wake the man up, and then he realized why he had listened to Gu Ling?

Mi Shang woke up slowly. Gu Ling slapped the stone lion. Mi Shang shivered and woke up completely.

Gu Ling said: "My brother and I are naturally strong. We can easily lift a few bags of rice, or even a stone lion. You'd better pay me the wages for the past few days, otherwise-"

Gu Ling exerted force with his hands, and irregular cracks appeared on the stone lion: "The next time will fall on you."

The little girl was very small, with a few strands of grass in her messy hair, but she was quite intimidating, and spoke and acted like a typical gangster.

The rice merchant had not yet fully recovered from his shock and was completely led by Gu Ling. Upon hearing this, he took out his purse tremblingly and handed it to Gu Ling without even looking at it.

Gu Ling lowered his head and counted the wages that Jiang Nian should have received, and returned the rest to the rice merchant: "If you do too much evil, you will eventually perish. You should take care of yourself in the future."

The rice merchant nodded cautiously: "Yes, yes, I'll remember it."

Gu Ling walked towards Jiang Nian with the money in her pocket. Before she could show him her achievements, Jiang Nian grabbed her by the belt, hugged her, put her under his arm and ran away.

He ran all the way out of the city and stopped only when he reached the wilderness.

Jiang Nian put the man down and collapsed to the ground without any image. Gu Ling asked him, "Why are you running? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate?"

Jiang Nian took a breath and then spoke: "Sister, can I call you sister? Who taught you to ask for money like this?"

Seeing Gu Ling threatening people in public, Jiang Nian's heart almost jumped out of his chest.

"There are two ways to make things right: one is with your mouth, the other is with your fists."

"What should I do if I can't beat him?"

Gu Ling: "My master said, if you can't win, just run away."

OK, so it was a tradition of the sect. No wonder her master ran away so quickly after the incident at the clinic.

Jiang Nian wiped his face and felt a little tired.

Gu Ling felt like she had done something bad, so she handed her purse along with her wages to Jiang Nian.

"I lost, the money is yours."

If it weren't for Gu Ling's threat, the two of them would normally not have received their wages.

Jiang Nian took it and took a look. Inside was all of Gu Ling’s belongings.

Jiang Nian did not touch the fifty taels of silver from the pawned clothes. He only took the remaining money and then returned the purse to Gu Ling.

Gu Ling walked over hesitantly and took it. Jiang Nian stretched out a finger and hooked it at her: "Do you know why I can't ask for money in your way?"

Gu Ling sat down next to Jiang Nian and asked curiously, "Why?"

"Stupid! Because your lair is nearby, so you have to stay away when doing bad things, right?"

Gu Ling:?

The rice merchant had a good business in the city, and businessmen had some financial relationship with local officials. This was why even though the rice merchant had cheated so many people, no one dared to report to the authorities. Instead, the rice merchant kept on talking about reporting to the authorities.

The rice merchant was frightened at the time, and was at a loss for a moment, so he was intimidated by Gu Ling. Once he calmed down, he would definitely charge the two with extortion and intimidation.

But Gu Ling said those words on the street, and many people can testify to it.

As for the truth, it is something only a few people want.

Most of the beggars in this area of ​​West Street live in dilapidated temples, so it is easy to catch them.

Once the rice merchants take revenge, the ruined temple will definitely not be able to be restored.

After listening to Jiang Nian's analysis, Gu Ling lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry."

"Forget it. I am just a beggar who has no home anywhere. It doesn't matter where I sleep. I am tired of staying here. Let's go and have a look somewhere else."

Jiang Nian stood up. At this moment, the sun was setting. The huge orange-red sunset slowly sank behind him. He was against the light, his face was not very clear, and he stretched his arms lazily.

"Hey! Kid, I'm leaving. Do you want to come with me?"

The naive Gu Ling did not understand that now was the best time to say goodbye.

The phrase "depending on each other" is too deeply binding. For Jiangnian, since Gu Ling is not leaving now, they will be on the same path from now on.

He can't let go, and he won't let go.

At this moment, Gu Ling looked at Jiang Nian and only saw the afterglow casting a soft halo on the young man.

The unattached boy looked free and unrestrained, the wind was blowing gently and softly, and everything slowed down.

At that moment, Gu Ling didn't know what she was thinking, or maybe she was thinking nothing. She just uttered a very ordinary word as usual.

"it is good."

……

Although Jiang Nian has some extraordinary abilities, his tricks are just the tip of the iceberg.

The old beggar who adopted him was a cultivator in the foundation-building stage. He had poor talent and was only in the foundation-building stage after practicing for his entire life. Later, he became a beggar because he offended someone.

Although Jiang Nian has great talent, he is a person who just goes with the flow. In addition, he does not have any good skills, so his current level is just the entry level of cultivating immortals.

He himself is still a half-grown child, and if he brings Gu Ling with him, the two of them are equally bad. If he really wants to go out into the world, he might be beheaded one day.

Jiang Nian has an advantage, which is that he knows how to deal with current affairs. He knows exactly his own strengths and weaknesses.

He took Gu Ling and walked along the official road for a day and a night, and arrived at a small town that was not very rich.

If Jiang Nian was alone, he could live well by stealing some money, but when Gu Ling was with him, for some reason, he didn't want Gu Ling to live such an undignified life with him.

Before entering the town, he prepared new clothes for himself and Gu Ling. The two of them entered the town on the pretext of going out to look for their relatives, just like an ordinary pair of siblings.

Jiang Nian spent a lot of time and effort to find a job as an errand runner in the town's inn.

Gu Ling was not idle either. She read many and diverse books and had a first-rate comprehension. She hung out outside the school all day, making money by doing homework for others.

Once when he was "doing business", he was accidentally discovered by the teacher, and his source of income was cut off.

Master Xu looked at the little girl in front of him, puffing his beard and glaring: "Where did this naughty girl come from?! You did all the homework these days? Where are your elders?"

The naughty boy didn't say anything and was detained in the private school by Master Xu. Jiang Nian learned about this at night and hurried to rescue him.
