Health Martial Saints: Start with soaking your feet

Chapter 17: Seventeen

Since entering the Body Tempering Realm, Li Suian's physique has become increasingly plump.

Sense of security +1.

Recently, I also like to walk.

In this kind of weather, even if you put on unlined clothes, you won't feel too cold.

But he is still used to wrapping himself tightly.

"Shopkeeper Li got up so early, and the city was closed by heavy snow today, so I thought there would be no business." Baozi Xi Shi warmly welcomed him.

The end of the year is approaching, and the city gradually has a festive atmosphere.

The number of people hoarding new year's goods has increased, setting off the homeless refugees, showing that "there are so many cold and warm things in the world, and some families are happy and some are sad."

Seeing the beautiful woman smiling at me, I felt refreshed, "Miss Yu, first give me fifteen... no, twenty buns and three bowls of porridge. Then count the remaining buns and steamed buns in your shop, I'll take them all with me later."

"Ah, do you want both?"

"It's all."

"okay."

Baozi Xishi was overjoyed, "It's better to send it to Guishoutang, and let the head of my family deliver it for you."

Li Suian waved his hand, "Not this time, let's get ready first."

After gulping down twenty big meat buns, I was [-]% full, which was just right.

Seeing this, Lao Yu immediately put down what he was doing, and followed Li Suian with the steaming buns in his hands without saying a word.

Li Suian seemed to be walking aimlessly, and unknowingly came to Silk Street, when suddenly two green lights flew out of an alleyway, drilled into his mind and disappeared.He paused, "Lao Yu, is the Xu family's house over there?"

Old Yu who followed silently was taken aback when he heard the words, "It seems so."

Li Suian looked for it, and it turned out to be a near-abandoned house, half of the roof collapsed, and there were scorched marks everywhere on the walls and eaves.

Not only did evil spirits cause disasters that night, but a big fire was also set alight?
He did not see the fire that night.

Most of the seal on the gate had been ripped open, fluttering in the wind.

It's only been a long time since the evil spirits have passed, and this place has already rotted like this.

Li Suian tore off the seal without hesitation, and threw it away.

Unexpectedly, the moment he tore off the seal, a man who was meditating with his eyes closed in a certain house on the street suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed a knife and jumped onto the roof.Turning into afterimages, he quickly rushed towards the Xu family compound.

The door was pushed open, and the sound suddenly woke up the people in the house.

The huge Xu family's ancestral house was actually completely occupied by beggars.

This place has been ravaged by evil spirits, and other people dare not bring bad luck, but they have made it easier for these beggars.

Some powerful beggar chieftains occupy a hut alone.The largest main room is full of old, weak, sick and disabled beggars, and a bonfire is lit in the middle of the room.

There are also children who are begging with their families. The weather is too cold, and the young ones squeeze into the thatched nest next to each other to keep warm.

The gaps in the surrounding walls are also plugged with thatch to prevent the cold wind from entering.Although it can't prevent the cold, it is a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

Seeing someone break in, the beggars were all very flustered and looked at the two of them anxiously.

Li Suian glanced at him, the youngest was skinny, only as tall as his thigh.

"Are you hungry, does anyone want to eat buns?"

He asked, but no one answered.

Nod to Lao Yu, motioning him to open it.

Old Yu quickly unwrapped the package, and the steaming big white steamed bun came into view. The room was full of commotion, but he hesitated to go forward.

"If you want to eat, just come forward and talk to me boldly."

Finally, a little man just past his knees couldn't stand the hunger, and boldly stepped forward.

Li Suian saw a pair of bright eyes full of hope, squatted down and said kindly: "Little guy, how many can you eat?"

"Fawns can eat three...five, no, ten."

She gestured with a slap, and added another slap if it wasn't enough.

Li Suian smiled, she was still a little girl.

Grabbed two and stuffed them into her hands.

With a dirty little face and bright eyes, she stared at the bun in her hand that was bigger than her palm, and then looked at Li Suian, as if confirming that this was not a dream.Until the temperature in her palm kept stimulating her appetite, she couldn't help it, and immediately stuffed the bun into her mouth quickly, and started to gobble it up.

"Eat slowly, there are still more."

Now the whole dilapidated house was in a commotion, and they all came in a swarm.

"Everyone is lined up, no grabbing is allowed. Anyone who doesn't line up won't be able to eat buns. After eating, there are still some buns left, one by one line up to get them." Li Suian yelled loudly.

The beggar leaders in the other rooms rushed over when they got the news.

After a while, the buns were all distributed, the little guy who came up first ate fast, and then came up again after eating, and ate four of them, stuffing his stomach full, and hiccupping non-stop .

"Thank you benefactor."

She also knew how to be grateful, and when she bent her legs, she was about to kneel down and kowtow to Li Suian, but was lifted up by Li Suian.

The little man was lifted in mid-air like a package.

Her little legs kicked restlessly in the air.

Li Suian put her on the ground

"Don't kneel, I'm a kind-hearted person, but not many. It's almost Chinese New Year, and it's just a whim to bring you some food. It's just a few buns, it's not worth kneeling."

"The grace of a meal is worth kneeling." Xiaolu shouted in a crisp voice.

"Eh, you can talk."

His face was stern: "I said it's not worth it."

Xiaolu was not afraid of him anymore, blinked and smiled at him.

Li Suian also chuckled, "Don't trust strangers easily. You are still helping to count the money after you are sold. This is the way of the world. People who live well are more likely to become good people. But in a world where everyone is in danger , there are not many good people, after all, you have to control your own destiny."

"Let me ask you, after this full meal, what about the next meal? Do you continue to beg along the street? It's snowing so much, I'm afraid you'll be frozen to death when you go out."

There were more bustling voices in the crowd.

Mostly helpless.

Li Suian also sighed, "Does anyone know about Ruyifang on Liufeng Street next door?"

"I know!"

An older boy stood up.

"I'm the shopkeeper of Ruyifang. It's almost Chinese New Year in the restaurant. Some of the guys have gone home on vacation. Now there are still a few temporary guys who wash dishes and pick vegetables. The salary is not much, but it can feed you and keep you warm. I will live in a shelter from the wind and rain. I will disband in the spring of next year. If you do a good job, you can also be left behind. You can also choose to leave by yourself. Is there anyone willing to go?"

"Me, Xiaolu."

The little man raised his hands high and jumped up and down.

Li Suian smiled, "Okay, I have you."

"And me, my name is Xu Huairong." The boy shouted.

"I, my master, please take me with you, I work very hard and can do anything!"

The other beggars didn't hesitate any longer, and swarmed over.

People starve to death every day. At this time, someone can give them a bite to eat, even if they are asked to kill and set fire.

There were too many people, Li Suian hurriedly shouted again, "Only accept those below, please make a living for the older ones. Forgive me, I am also a small business, and I really can't take care of everyone."

"Benefactor, please be kind, I don't have to go, please bring my wife. My child is too young, and I haven't eaten for two days. I can't live without my mother." A middle-aged man hugged his one-year-old son. The child kowtowed non-stop, and a middle-aged woman with dry hair next to him also kowtowed non-stop.

"Get up and talk, I ask you, is this your child?"

"It's mine, it's my own flesh and blood."

"How old are you this year?"

"Return to benefactor, I am 23 years old, and my wife is 19 years old."

23...

Looking like forty or fifty, he almost suspected that the two were human traffickers.

"It counts as your family."

"Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor." As soon as his knees softened, he was about to kneel down again.

"Stop kneeling, and don't come if you kneel again."

Li Suian counted the heads one by one and handed out buns.

Those who have been hungry are not willing to eat at all, and they have to save it if they hide it, fearing that they will not eat the next meal.

Fortunately, I brought a lot today.

"Treasurer Li, there are two corpses."

Lao Yu suddenly leaned close to his ear and sounded a reminder, and looked at the two figures in the straw that had not moved from beginning to end.

Li Suian walked over and pushed aside the thatch pile, revealing the two livid young corpses.

"It's a little monkey, a little shell."

The crowd exclaimed, and many children who knew the corpse felt sad, but that was all.

When the day and night are at stake, who can take care of whom?

"Old Yu, please inform the body collector later, it will easily change after a long time."

"Okay." Old Yu replied.

Early in the morning, Li Suian went out for a trip, and on the way back, he led a large group of ragged beggars.

After going back, it's time for Uncle Fu to scold him again.

Thinking this way, he was stopped by someone as soon as he stepped out of the gate.

Dressed in a black flying fish brocade suit, he held the Ye Zan Ye Dao in one hand, and suddenly it was a seal in the other hand.

"Stop, take out the tooth card and have a look." The voice was crisp and clear, and it was still a female night watchman.Wearing a bamboo hat, covering most of the face, only revealing a very characteristic beauty groove chin.

But this fierce... Baba's aura made Li Suian feel familiar.

Take a closer look, this fierce...he knows it.

It was the bearer of the lantern.

Lao Yu was a little uneasy, and Li Suian calmly cupped his hands and said, "My lord, we are nearby residents. We went out to have breakfast in the morning and went for a casual walk. We forgot our tooth card. If your lord wants to check, we can go back and get it immediately."

"Why did you come here, you opened this seal?"

"Returning to my lord, the Xu family and my family are old. I came here today just to remember my friends. Today is the first time I came here after the accident. Many people have lived in it. I don't know who opened the seal. Such a big wind , maybe it was blown away by the wind."

The night watchman looked at him talking nonsense in a serious manner, and then at the large group of young beggars following him.

After a long silence, he said: "Teach you a good boy, next time you lift the seal of the lantern department, you must not tear it off, even if it is about to fall off, don't take it off, understand."

"Yes, thank you for your teaching, my lord, please remember."

"Let's go."

She stepped out of the way.

Li Suian immediately left with a large group of people.

When they were far away, the woman re-attached the seal, or only half of it, so that it was convenient to open and close the door.

At the end, he took out a large seal and stamped it heavily on the seal.A blue light flashed, and then faded out of sight.

Looking in the direction where Li Suian left, he smiled lightly, "Don't kneel."

"It's easier for a person who lives a good life to become a good person..."

She laughed out loud, revealing a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, her figure flashed, and she disappeared in place.
