Chapter 21
"You've grown up, Xiao Yao." Bai Yuejian shed tears of relief.

"Don't look like you saw your daughter getting married! Hey! Stop watching TV dramas!"

"Okay, let's get down to business." The senior sister changed her face faster than turning the pages of a book
"Junior Sister, your thinking is correct, you can only survive in the world of heaven and man if you find ways to make money, but you can't fall behind in your cultivation.

This day, Haishi's aura is almost zero, and it's not suitable for cultivation at all. We don't care, but Xiaoye can't wait, her age is the easiest time to get started, and I'm afraid it will delay her growth a few years later. "

"So what does Senior Sister mean?"

"We still don't know when we will be able to go back, and we must make long-term plans. One is to restore our cultivation as soon as possible, which is fundamental; the other is that we also need to develop our own power on Lingyuan Planet, so that we will not be controlled by others everywhere. So we better act separately."

"Senior sister, I understand! As Xiaoye's master, I will take good care of her..."

"You stay here."

Chu Yao's bitter face.

"Why! I also want to go out to play... No, I mean take Xiaoye well."

"That's it, I don't worry about you taking her out! I have already thought about it. The Lingyuan star is so big, it is impossible to only have the Beishan Mine as a suitable place for cultivation. In a few days, I will take her Walk."

"You just want to finish watching the finale of 'Runaway' in the supermarket at the intersection..."

The senior sister turned her head with a serious face, as if she didn't hear Chu Yao's words.

-

Three days later, Chu Yao bid farewell to the two outside the city.

Xiaoye finally chose to agree. She had no worries in Tianhai and had nowhere to go.After hearing Chu Yao tell her own story, she also wanted to go out and see the world.

"Oh, I'm busy, please be busy." Chu Yao was like a lonely old man who stayed behind, and began to think about the next plan.

The slightly pale sunlight spreads from overhead, leaving long shadows on the corners and alleys of high-rise buildings of various colors.The sky is gloomy and cold, not only because of the unique climate of Lingyuan Star, but also because of the smog of the city's industry.

Chu Yao is now in the Eighth Ring Road, Dark Street area of ​​Tianhai City.

Not counting the small towns outside the city, the real urban area of ​​Tianhai can be divided into one to ten rings.Within the fourth ring is the central area; from the fifth to the seventh ring is the civilian area; from the eighth to the tenth ring is the lawless dark street.

The narrow alleys are criss-crossed, the old walls are full of graffiti and small advertisements, and the disorderly wires are tangled into a messy net overhead.

The haggard drug addict, the homeless man living in the corner, the street girl with heavy makeup, the sneaky peddler...

The deeper you go, the more people you see.

The Eighth Ring Road and the Seventh Ring Road are obviously separated by a street, but their appearances are very different.

The majestic and beautiful Sky Sea City exposed its bright and rotten corner on the edge of the city.

It seems that no matter which civilization, there are such abandoned people.Even if it is as developed as a heavenly man, there is no exception.

The basement where Chu Yao and the others hid before was located between the Seventh Ring Road and the Eighth Ring Road. After some comparison, she was also a little emotional, but what came to her heart was an inexplicable sense of stability.

Since there are still places like the dark street that the law enforcement bureau can't control, the Yali company is not blocking the sky with one hand in Lingyuan star.

She has been practicing as a mortal until now, and she has also walked through many places similar to dark streets on Fengyuanxing.Although it is chaotic here, for Chu Yao, it feels like returning to his hometown.

Give me time to develop, and I can always soar into the sky!
Hmph, wait and see, Senior Sister, I will surprise you when you come back...

That's what I said, but Chu Yao is also a little confused right now.There is another reason why she came to Dark Street,
She is a black household.

Chu Yao tried to find a job within the Seventh Ring Road a few days ago. She had lowered her qualifications very low, but when all the bosses heard that she couldn't show her ID, they immediately got up to see off the customers.

The serious citizens of Tianhai all have something called an ID card, which is their identification card, and Chu Yao, an outsider, naturally does not have it.

Fortunately, the last boss was kind (?) and suggested that she try it in the dark street, as there are no rules here.

"Buy discs, miss, four yuan for one piece, ten yuan for three..."

"Don't buy it, don't buy it, refund it!" Chu Yao dismissed a peddler who was close to her impatiently.

I can't buy it even if I want to, I have no money!
As she walked, she saw that at the corner of a certain street, there was a small restaurant with a sign looking for handymen:
"Hiring a kitchen helper, no male or female, no age limit. Two thousand a month, including food and housing."

Hey, food and lodging included, this is not bad!
Let's talk about a place to live first, she doesn't want to live in that damp basement forever.

Chu Yao pushed open the door and walked in. The owner of the store was a fat middle-aged aunt who was lying on the front desk, brushing Feiyu boredly, making a lot of noise.

"Feiyu" is an app for watching short videos, which is found in almost every celestial being's mobile phone.

Chu Yao looked around, the storefront was very small, with five or six small wooden tables that were old and white, and various posters were pasted on the walls.

Small, but not cluttered, it looks neat.

"What do you want to eat? The menu is on the wall over there, let's see for yourself." The aunt looked up, and then focused on swiping her phone again.

"Miss Boss, are you still recruiting helpers? I see a notice hanging outside the door."

The proprietress was taken aback for a moment, and finally looked up at Chu Yao seriously, scanning her back and forth.

"Take it, of course I do."

The landlady's eyes were full of doubts, as if hesitating to speak.

"Why, I don't look like I can work?"

Not really.

Chu Yao is now wearing a pair of ripped jeans, a purple-black sweater on her upper body, and a baseball cap on her head.

The security team uniform she wore earlier has been thrown away, and she can't keep wearing it, it's too eye-catching.

As for the source of this suit... Ahem, don't ask me, ask the senior sister.

In addition, she cut half of her waist-length hair ruthlessly. Don't worry, it can be restored at any time with her cultivation base.

Such a dress made her look like a street girl, not a worker.

"Girl, listen to my aunt's persuasion, it's normal for you to quarrel with your family at your age..."

The proprietress regarded her as a student who had run away from home.

"I really came here to work..." Chu Yao couldn't laugh or cry.

"We don't recruit minors here."

"I'm an adult, I just turned eighteen this year!"

Chu Yao Yao forever!

The proprietress was still a little unbelievable.So Chu Yao launched her three-inch tongue, began to grind hard, and finally moved the other party.

"Okay, okay, then live with me first. Call your family when you have time, and don't let them worry..." The proprietress has already identified Chu Yao's "girl who left home" and imagined it An eighty-episode family ethics drama was released.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Chu...Chu Ye. You can call me Xiao Ye."

To be prudent, it is better not to report your real name.

"Okay, Xiao Ye, go to the kitchen at the back first." After the proprietress finished speaking, she turned around and shouted:
"Old man! The helper has been found."

"understood!"

Chu Yao followed the sound and saw a man with a vicissitudes in the kitchen.It really is a small shop here, only run by the husband and wife.

The man was also a little surprised to see Chu Yao's appearance, but let Chu Yao try to cut some dishes first, and then he was shocked to find that the little girl was good at knives and seemed very used to working in the kitchen.

"Little girl is not easy, have you done it before?"

"Of course, otherwise, why would I apply for the job?"

Not only did she do it before, before she practiced cultivation, she had this background, doing odd jobs and helping the cook in restaurants, doing everything.

Chu Yao cut a magical blue cabbage into pieces according to the boss's instructions, and put them in a small bowl for later use, methodically.

"Well, good, I'm qualified! My surname is Hou, so I don't need to be called the boss. You can call me Uncle Hou. The one who collects the bill outside is my wife. Don't worry about it now. I won't be busy until lunchtime. I'm now Arrange a place with you."

Chu Yao followed Uncle Hou, walked from the back door to a room next door, and was ushered into a clean small room by him.

A small bed, complete tables, chairs and benches, and a bookshelf with books and some small items on it.

"You can live here first. It turned out to be my son's house, and it has been tidied up now."

"Your son now..." Chu Yao actually thought this Uncle Hou looked familiar just now.

It shouldn't be such a coincidence, right?

"Oh, that brat didn't mention it! He said he was going out to start a business, but he ran away for several years without even a phone call." Uncle Hou lit a cigarette and smoked as he spoke.
"He wanted to be strong since he was a child. He didn't tell his family anything. He only wanted to make a lot of money. In fact, what can we do no matter how much money we make? As parents, we only want our children to be safe...

I made you laugh at me, little girl, and I'll talk too much when I mention him.You rest here first, and I will call you later when I am busy. "

"Okay, thank you Uncle Hou."

"Well, it's okay. You often call your family when you are free. Don't be like my kid, who is always missed by others." Uncle Hou sighed and walked away.

family...

Chu Yao's parents had already passed away.Cultivators have a long lifespan, but ordinary people can't. She also experienced the parting of her loved ones with her own eyes.

The Chu family is still there, but to her, it is no longer the Chu family it used to be.

When everyone she was familiar with turned into a handful of loess, the only blood connection left between those clansmen who had lasted for several generations and her.

For her now, perhaps the only one who can be called family is the senior sister.Well, there are also leaflets.

Then there are the peers and disciples of Tianyin Sect.

One name after another came to mind.

Give me a good life, and I will pick you up one by one after my ancestors get rich!

Chu Yao lay down on the small bed and rolled comfortably, like a kitten.

In any case, I finally have a place to live, so gratifying, congratulations, congratulations.

As for this Uncle Hou, Chu Yao is almost certain that he is the father of Shouhou.The proprietress should be his mother.

It was the man surnamed Hou who wanted to steal her things in the mine and was later bribed.

But she still held back the thought of speaking.

Chu Yao remembered that on the day of fleeing, Skinny Monkey snatched the car behind them, but she was not sure if she escaped successfully in the end.

Instead of making the old couple more troubles, let them still believe that their children are wandering outside.

Pity the parents of the world.

 Thank you very much for your support
