The sect is full of evildoers, but I am the eldest brother.

Gu Gu Gu Gu...

My stomach growls from time to time.

Mu Haochen was so hungry that his chest was sticking to his back. He endured the disgusting stench of decay and moved away the upper garbage, hoping to find something to eat.

However, when he lowered his head and looked at the bottom, all he saw was filthy waste, maggots, and even dead rats, without a single piece of food that could satisfy his hunger.

A feeling of disappointment suddenly welled up in my heart.

"I was able to find some last time, but this time someone got there first?"

Mu Haochen continued to search in disbelief until the Zuiyuexuan waiter came out with a new bag of garbage. He then stopped and looked at the waiter with hope.

"Hey! You damn beggar! I just cleaned up this place. If you dare to mess it up, I'll kill you!"

The guy pushed Mu Haochen down without any courtesy and threw the bag of garbage into the bin.

Afterwards, the waiter clapped his hands, spat on Mu Haochen's patched clothes, and sneered, "I knew you would come here at this time every day."

"I've already told the higher-ups that all leftover food and rice will be given to the stall owner to feed the pigs. I'll starve you to death, you unwanted little bastard!"

"I'm warning you, if you dare to come here and mess around again, I'll break both of your hands and make you a complete piece of trash from now on! Haha, a piece of trash."

"Zhao Si! Zhao Si!"

"You're going to die, taking your time to throw away the garbage? Can you do it? If not, get out!!!"

A woman's roar was heard from Zuiyuexuan.

The waiter turned pale with fright upon hearing this and quickly replied, "I'm here, I'll be right back!"

"What are you looking at, you piece of trash... Hehe——"

The spit landed directly on Mu Haochen's face.

"Zhao Si!!!"

"Hey, here I come~"

Mu Haochen lowered his head silently. He felt very wronged, but he did not cry.

He knew this was not good and would cause inconvenience to others, but he had no choice.

He also thought about being self-reliant and finding a job to support himself, but others don't want to be disabled...

"I'm sorry, I won't come here again."

Mu Haochen casually wiped the dirty foam off his face with his shoulder sleeve, turned around and prepared to go to the next place.

But he didn't take two steps.

Suddenly bumping into someone, Mu Haochen was so scared that he lowered his head and apologized repeatedly as if it was a conditioned reflex:

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'm blind. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience... I'll disappear right away. Please don't hit me. I'll disappear right away..."

It is heartbreaking to grow used to it. Wen Zixi turned his eyes away and could not bear to see the sufferings in the world.

Wei Zhou, who witnessed the whole process, was furious and immediately went to find the guy named "Zhao Si" to argue with him.

But Qi Chuan sneered:

"You want to show off your abilities again, huh?"

"Heh... Xiaoyao doesn't even know whether she's alive or dead, and you still have the mind to care about others."

"Wei Zhou, how could you have the nerve to make such a promise to his parents?"

Wei Zhou clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth, but did not refute immediately.

"You're right, it's all my fault..."

Gu Junming ignored the two of them, but quickly reached out and grabbed Mu Haochen.

"I say...when old friends meet, why are they in such a hurry?" He chuckled.

Hearing this familiar voice.

Mu Haochen raised his head hesitantly and saw that the person coming was Gu Junming. His first thought was not to reminisce with the so-called "old friend", but to escape from here as quickly as possible.

He didn't want to be humiliated again.

"Hey, don't leave in such a hurry."

Gu Junming stretched out his big hand and firmly grasped the arm that was thinner than a stick of firewood.

The moment he made his move, his thick eyebrows wrinkled slightly, but he still managed to grab the other person with a little force.

"Would you like to have a good meal inside?"

Gu Junming pointed to Zuiyuexuan with its carved beams and painted buildings.

Mu Haochen was stunned for a moment, but before he could say anything, his stomach had already answered for him.

"Cuckoo cuckoo..."

"Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch."

Gu Junming smiled slightly and said:

"How about you do me a small favor for free? In exchange, I'll treat you to a free meal?"

Wen Zixi seemed to be lost in thought...

Did the little beggar say anything just now?

"Cuckoo cuckoo..."

"Haha, that's great."

Gu Junming asked Wen Zixi to buy two pancakes from the pancake stall across the street, and generously stuffed them into the hands of Mu Haochen who looked dazed.

Then half squat down, parallel to the other person's height.

"I ask you......"

Gu Junming restrained his smile and said seriously:

"Where did you go after you left the Zhengmeng? Or did you meet any strange people?"

Mu Haochen looked at the pancake in his arms, then looked at Gu Junming in front of him.

He hesitated.

The childish voice said honestly, "I went to the river to clean myself, and then came here."

At first glance, Mu Haochen was indeed much whiter, and his clothes were still the same as before, but when they got close to him, the stench lingering in the air had dissipated.

Well, my hair dries pretty fast.

"Bathing...is it the creek in the back street?"

Gu Junming asked.

In his memory, there was a small river in the back street of Liuyun Township with gurgling water. Women often washed their hair or old clothes there with wooden basins.

If that's the case, the scope is narrowed down immediately.

"No."

Mu Haochen shook his head and said, "I went to Qingbujian."

"So it's Qingbujian... You went to Qingbujian?!" Gu Junming was a little surprised.

Did he hear correctly? Qingbujian?

Qingbujian is five miles away from Liuyun Township.

It’s not that it’s particularly far.

The key point is that in such a short time, the little beggar not only left Liuyun Township and ran there to take a bath.

After taking a shower, he ran back without stopping.

Can my knees handle this? No wonder my hair dries so quickly, it's the wind...

Wen Zixi was also stunned for two seconds.

Although I knew that the little beggar was a fast runner and was a warrior who had one foot in the path of cultivation, I couldn't even imagine such a thing happening to him given his disabled lower limbs!

"Hiss, this is troublesome."

Gu Junming frowned and thought. He wanted to say that he could find the hiding place of the evil cultivator, but unexpectedly, the little beggar refreshed his horizons again and brought him back to the starting point.

"this......"

Mu Haochen looked at the pancake in his hand and gulped down a mouthful of water. He looked at Gu Junming eagerly, his expression stiff, and asked weakly, "Can I eat it?"

"What?" Gu Junming didn't hear clearly

"I...can I eat this..."

He lowered his head again, and even though he was swallowing saliva with hunger, he still held on to his principles.

"Ah? Oh oh!"

Gu Junming slapped his head and said with a smile: "Eat it, I bought it for you, don't be polite...Junior Sister!"

"Go, buy another cup of warm soy milk."
