Men wear women, and Lu Ding is forced to marry

Chapter 5: Discovering the secret of the senior brother, will he be silenced?

At dusk, Gu Chenzhou finally finished his afternoon work.

The sorted items were piled into clusters, packed into small boxes and sent to the craftsman.

His face was sweating and he had been bending and standing up all afternoon, which made his waist and legs sore. But the good news was that he earned twenty low-grade spirit stones in just one afternoon.

These are twenty low-grade spirit stones!

The satisfaction level when settling the payment was off the charts.

If he were not in Mihe City, these twenty low-grade spirit stones would be enough for him to spend for several months.

Gu Chenzhou looked up at the sky and thought to himself. It was not dark yet, so he should go find someone who was hiring for the evening shift. If he worked for a while longer, his small goal for today would be achieved.

He pounded his waist, kneaded his legs, rubbed his shoulders, and moved around a few times, using the method taught in the school of his previous life to relieve the pain. Then he exhaled, and the slightly bulging bag on his back, he rarely spent a low-grade spirit stone, and ordered a bowl of clear beef noodles at a stall outside to reward himself.

It has beautiful coriander floating on top and is steaming hot, it looks delicious.

The entrance is really good.

He ate the entire bowl and finally felt alive again.

The monk’s stall was really great, and the meals contained spiritual energy, which relieved a lot of the fatigue in the afternoon.

It's still a long time before bedtime. Based on yesterday's experience, most shops will be open for another three or four hours. Unfortunately, the late work is more popular than the daytime work, and the competition is fierce. Most of the good jobs have been snatched up.

The remaining odd jobs are all thankless, and some pay too little, making them uncompetitive among the night shift jobs.

These are what Gu Chenzhou is targeting.

It was clearly busier at night, as most of the tasks were urgent and had to be completed before midnight, and the shop owner who had said during the day that he didn't want to run errands for him didn't have the time to even glance at him at this moment.

He stood there for a while, then went to take on an errand task that had been left on the task board for a long time without anyone paying attention to it.

The price was a bit low. For the same distance, others offered ten low-grade spirit stones and required foundation-building cultivation, but this one only offered six and didn't require anything else. Gu Chenzhou got a bargain and was very content.

The task was to deliver a package to Du's house four kilometers away.

It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to walk one kilometer, and about two hours to walk four kilometers. Gu Chenzhou counted on his fingers and estimated that if he walked slowly, it would take about two hours to go there and come back. By then, it should be just enough time to walk back to the inn.

If I could fly a sword, I would probably be back in ten minutes.

I can earn six spirit stones in just over ten minutes. How much can I earn in a day?

Gu Chenzhou was shocked by the gap between cultivators and mortals.

The gap between the rich and the poor is really huge.

He silently put on his own package, picked up another package that the store had packed, and turned to leave.

Late at night.

A white figure was slowly approaching Linglong Inn.

The inn was still bustling with people who had finished their night shifts gathering together and having a midnight snack.

As soon as Gu Chenzhou entered, he saw Yu Shiwen and Xin Man sitting in the corner, laughing and talking.

"How much did you earn today?"

"It's about twice as much as before, three hundred low-grade spirit stones."

"What about you?"

"I, I am like that..."

"Why are you being so modest? I said it for her. This is the number." The man made a "five" gesture.

Xin Man and Yu Shiwen asked one by one, and the starting price was about a few hundred, and the lowest was two hundred low-grade spirit stones.

"Big Sister, Second Sister, did everything go well for you today?"

Yu Shiwen nodded and told them: "Today I hunted a Xuan-level spirit beast, the Ice Soul White Spirit Rabbit, and exchanged it for twenty mid-grade spirit stones."

One middle-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit stones. Everyone present took a deep breath. They really had a great harvest today. Such good luck does not come often.

Gu Chenzhou was so shocked that he almost stumbled.

Roll it, let your uncle roll it.

He was about to turn around and quietly go upstairs, but as a cultivator, his five senses were sharp, and someone saw him and said to Yu Shiwen, "Junior brother is back."

Xin Man, who was sitting on the inside, spoke first: "Hurry up, everyone waiting for you is hungry."

He had no choice but to walk forward and sit next to Yu Shiwen.

Some of his hair was slightly messy, his cheeks were stained with dirt, and there was dust on the tip of his nose. He looked like a dirty guy who was running away.

Everyone was stunned when they saw him.

"Are you going to fight?" Xin Man asked suddenly.

Gu Chenzhou's chin was pinched, and before he could react, Yu Shiwen wiped his face with the handkerchief in her hand. The force was very light. After wiping, she put the handkerchief away, smoothed his hair, and said, "Okay, you must be hungry, let's eat."

After saying that, he asked the waiter to start serving the dishes.

Gu Chenzhou looked over and she just smiled without asking anything.

"Thank you, senior sister..." Gu Chenzhou also smiled at her, which seemed a bit clumsy considering his embarrassed look.

"Yes, yes, let's eat."

On the table were arranged plates, a plate of colorful stir-fried meat, shiny and oily, smelling fragrant and spicy, a plate of juicy Chinese cabbage, a plate of delicious shredded tofu, and a bowl of hot rice.

Gu Chenzhou's eyes narrowed into two straight lines.

So happy.

He used his chopsticks very quickly and started eating without paying attention.

Several people took the initiative to pick up food for him, even Xin Man coldly picked up a little meat for him, and soon his bowl was full.

He was a little touched, so.

I ate too much again.

Gu Chenzhou pinched his stomach, feeling a little worried.

After eating, the senior sisters went back to their rooms to practice one after another. Gu Chenzhou took the package he had placed aside, counted out twenty low-grade spirit stones, and handed them to Yu Shiwen.

Yu Shiwen's gaze fell on his face, with mixed emotions, but she didn't reach out to take it.

"Today's room fee."

She held her forehead and sighed, but Xin Man took it, counted it, and threw ten back, "Sixth Junior Brother, there are still ten."

Gu Chenzhou insisted that they accept it. Xin Man was straightforward and she thought that everyone should be treated equally, so she accepted it.

"...Oh."

He carefully collected the few pieces that were thrown back to him, stuffed them into his package, and smiled without any gloom.

After saving fifteen low-grade spirit stones in one day, he will be very motivated for tomorrow.

There were still a few days left before the martial arts competition, so he worked hard and waited until he returned to the Hehuan Sect, where prices were low and he would be able to live a comfortable life for a while.

More poultry can be raised in the back mountain, and more vegetables, wheat and rice can be planted. The fish pond can also be rebuilt. He will go buy some fish fry and then change his clothes.

This way you can be self-sufficient and don’t have to spend spirit stones frequently.

Gu Chenzhou thought silently to himself and went upstairs.

Yu Shiwen and Xin Man were still sitting below, watching his somewhat stubborn figure gradually disappear into the distance, and they looked at each other.

Sixth Senior Brother came back very early today and was already lying on the couch. Seeing that he seemed sleepy, Gu Chenzhou moved even more gently.

He wants to be a good roommate and try to get to know his sixth senior brother as soon as possible.

After bathing, he used the disposable drying talismans provided free of charge by the inn. He felt refreshed and got into bed comfortably.

During this time, the Sixth Senior Brother didn't say a word and was probably asleep. Just as he was about to blow out the light, he seemed to hear some unusual movement.

After carefully identifying it for a while, I realized that the voice came from Sixth Senior Brother.

"Sixth Senior Brother?" Gu Chen walked in a strange manner.

No one responded.

He got out of bed with his hair loose and walked over. Chi Feiyu was wrapped in a quilt. He seemed to be very hot, with his cheeks flushed.

Gu Chenzhou was shocked when he touched it.

So hot.

This is going to be confusing.

"I'm going to see the doctor."

He stood up, and his wrist was grabbed. Chi Feiyu opened his eyes, "...No, go to sleep."

"How can this be done? Although the mortality rate of fever is low, if it is not treated properly, it can cause encephalitis and myocarditis, and it may leave sequelae. If other diseases are brought on one day, the person will die."

Chi Feiyu couldn't understand what he was mumbling. It was already late at night and there was no doctor outside. He felt dizzy and just wanted to curl up and not move. He refused to get up from the bed no matter what.

Seeing that he was stubborn, Gu Chenzhou brought a basin of warm water and said he would wipe his body to dissipate the heat quickly, and then let him sleep.

He wrung out the handkerchief, undressed the other person, and wiped very diligently. It was dark and although he could not see clearly, the color of Chi Feiyu's waist seemed to be darker than other places. Gu Chenzhou looked at it for a while and vaguely felt that it was a very brutal pinching mark.

He thought it was an illusion and looked away, but soon he was stunned.

Why is there also something behind the neck...

He felt a chill on his back, his mind went blank for a moment, and his heart was pounding. After wiping the area skillfully, he silently closed his senior brother's clothes and took the basin away.

God bless him, he didn't see anything just now. He might as well be blind. What should he do when his senior brother wakes up and asks him? Should he pretend he doesn't know?

After getting on the bed, he hid his face in the quilt and tossed and turned many times but couldn't fall asleep. In a daze, he thought of the servant who was taken to the mass grave by a ox cart when he just came here.

Suddenly my hair stood up and I broke out in a cold sweat.

He had seen those empty eyes, and they remained open until his death.
