The Host in Quick Transmigration Always Wants to Break Her Character

Upon hearing this, the four robbers began to introduce themselves in the order in which they stood.

The first, tall and imposing robber said, "My name is Zhang San."

Lin Jingyi turned his gaze to the short, thin robber.

"My name is Li Si, sir."

Before Lin Jingyi could even look over, he began to introduce himself in turn: "My name is Wang Er."

"My name is Pockmarked." That's what One-Eyed said.

Lin Jingyi: Zhang San, Li Si, Wang Ermazi? ? This name is too casual.

Lin Jingyi asked the four people with a puzzled look, "Aren't you brothers?"

Li Si seemed to be the leader of the four people here. She explained to Lin Jingyi:

“Great hero, the four of us are not blood brothers. We were abandoned during the famine years ago.”

"Later, the four of us depended on each other for survival and lived here. The village head took pity on us and gave us some land to live on."

Lin Jingyi nodded; there was nothing she could do to change the situation.

That's just how this generation is; there's never a shortage of pitiful people.

With her current abilities, she cannot change the world, and can only listen patiently.

"Understood. Go do what you need to do." Lin Jingyi waved to the four people who were still standing in front of her.

"Um, may I ask your honorable name, sir?" Li Si asked Lin Jingyi cautiously.

“Yan Zhao,” Lin Jingyi said calmly.

"Okay, Master Yan, please wait a moment, we'll go get you dinner."

After receiving the answer, the four dispersed.

They had a clear division of labor and worked together very well.

Lin Jingyi moved a chair to the doorway and watched the rain drip from the eaves, fall to the ground, gather into a stream, erode the ground to form small ditches, and the rainwater gathered together and flowed to lower ground.

This was the heaviest rain Lin Jingyi had ever seen in his lifetime.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and some rainwater splashed onto Lin Jingyi, who was sitting at the door. She had no choice but to sit inside.

Unexpectedly, it was raining heavily outside, but drizzling inside.

"Great hero, my humble abode is simple and unassuming, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you," Li Si said to Lin Jingyi, feeling embarrassed.

Lin Jingyi waved her hand. Since Li Si had already said that, what else could she say? She could only silently move to a place where there was no leak.

Afterwards, she ate a bowl of rice soup with the four of them in the light rain inside the house; yes, there wasn't even any porridge.

It's clear that these four people are really poor. Lin Jingyi isn't picky; as long as they can eat, it's fine.

They quickly finished the bowl of rice soup. The four brothers didn't seem to be full, and Lin Jingyi was only about half full.

Because of the rain, it got dark faster than usual.

After they finished eating, they went to bed. The five of them squeezed onto one kang (a heated brick bed), and the rest of the room leaked water to some extent.

Lin Jingyi: ...

In short, she didn't sleep well that night.

The rain fell all night and showed no sign of stopping.

Lin Jingyi then remembered that in Yan Zhao's memory, the heavy rain lasted for six days and eventually caused floods, leaving people homeless.

At that time, Yan Zhao was only thinking about revenge and rescuing Nie Shuangshuang, and he didn't care about these natural disasters at all.

Lin Jingyi, on the contrary, was trapped in the home of Li Si and his four brothers because of the rain.

There's no way to stop this from going on; she'll have to stay here for another five days.

Lin Jingyi didn't want to drink rice porridge anymore; it still wasn't enough to fill her up.

So she turned to Li Si, who was tending the fire, and asked, "Is there a market around here?"

Li Si nodded upon hearing this and said, "The market is half a day's journey from here."

"Can you make it back in one round trip now?" Lin Jingyi then asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhang San turned to Lin Jingyi and said, "Wang Er and I are faster and can make it back, but the roads are slippery from the rain, so it might be difficult."

"It's alright. Here's twenty taels of silver. Take it and go to the market to buy some food. The rest is up to you." Lin Jingyi said, taking out twenty taels of silver from his pocket.

Lin Jingyi thought for a moment and then added, "The roads are slippery because of the rain. You can stay at the market for the night and return early the next morning."

Upon hearing this, Li Si said to Lin Jingyi with embarrassment, "Hero Yan, we can't possibly accept your money. You should keep it for yourself."

Zhang San and the others stared longingly at the silver in Lin Jingyi's hand, but since their elder brother had said no, they couldn't take it and could only watch helplessly.

Seeing this, Lin Jingyi handed the silver to Zhang San and said, "The rain probably won't stop for the next few days, so I'll stay here with you. I don't want to eat rice porridge with no oil or water anymore, and I still won't be full."

Zhang San took five taels of silver and said to Lin Jingyi, "Hero Yan, you've given too much. This is enough."

Twenty taels of silver could last a year for a normal farming family.

"Here you go, take the money and spend it however you want. Buy me some meat, and the rest is for your escape expenses."

Lin Jingyi said boldly.

In the end, the four brothers could not persuade Lin Jingyi otherwise. After lunch, Zhang San and Wang Er put on raincoats and straw hats, and with the twenty taels of silver given to them by Lin Jingyi, they headed towards the market.

Li Si and Ma Zi repaired the leaks inside the house, while Ma Zi went to cut grass for Lin Jingyi's horse, wearing a straw raincoat and hat.

Lin Jingyi sat idly, analyzing the unparalleled martial arts techniques he had memorized.

She didn't intend to teach these four men martial arts. Although they weren't inherently bad now, Lin Jingyi couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't change once they gained strength.

Sleeping together as a group of three at night didn't feel crowded, and the room stopped leaking. Lin Jingyi slept better than the first night.

She wasn't afraid they would harm her; although she was asleep, she remained vigilant towards them.

Fortunately, these men didn't dare to have any bad intentions towards her.

The next day at noon, Zhang San and Wang Er returned, carrying a full load of food.

Lin Jingyi was finally able to have a full meal.

She stayed at the four brothers' house for a total of six days. After the rain stopped, she left resolutely despite their attempts to persuade her to stay.

When you're traveling the world, you'll often meet strangers by chance.

Lin Jingyi mounted the horse she had bought and slowly rode forward.

After another half month of travel, she finally arrived at a small town under the jurisdiction of the Demonic Sect.

As the Lunar New Year drew closer, a somber atmosphere permeated the small town.

At this moment, Lin Jingyi changed into a plain gray robe, tied up all his hair, and walked into the town.

Lin Jingyi led her horse into the town. There were a few vendors on the street, and the people around her looked at her strangely when they saw her, an outsider, leading her horse in so openly.

Lin Jingyi was somewhat puzzled, but she had no intention of leaving.

As she approached the entrance of an inn, a friendly servant led her horse to the stable and looked after it.

Upon entering, I saw a person sitting at the front desk, looking drowsy.

Lin Jingyi went over and tapped the table with his sword, saying calmly, "Manager, a superior room."

The man was woken up by Lin Jingyi and was about to start cursing when he saw that it was a guest, so he quickly put on a smile.

"Alright, please wait a moment, sir."

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he went to find the waiter, and Lin Jingyi stood there waiting.
