Chapter 17 The Beggar Gang
A few days passed after the first robbery, and Jiang Li's life gradually got back on track.

Since Jiang Li came to Shanzhai, Shanzhai has increased his income by 160 taels, which is enough money to keep Shanzhai happy for a long time.

During the day, Jiang Li walked around the village.

A few days ago, she made an agreement with the third master to teach her kung fu, but the third master only saw her doing various handsome poses.

"What are you doing?"

"Practice the sultry pose after victory. Isn't this cool?"

Jiang Li's left leg was bent and his right leg was stretched, his left arm was raised and bent, his right arm was tilted downward, and his head was lowered in his left arm.If the third master has seen struggle propaganda posters, he will be familiar with this posture.

But the third master just watched silently for a while, then turned and left.

After that, the third master was unwilling to teach Jiang Li.But this didn't stop Jiang Li from practicing martial arts.

When the three heads of the family always practiced martial arts, Jiang Li would hold some food and watch beside them. After watching, he would follow suit.Sometimes when she couldn't keep up with them, she would interrupt the other person and ask him to do it again in slow motion.

Within a few days, the three masters found a room to practice martial arts and locked the door. There was a sign on the door saying "Commentary is not allowed to enter."

So Jiang Li planned to move a ladder and climb to the roof to uncover the tiles and take a peek.However, the military advisor gave up this idea when Zhongdao fell from the roof before planning.

Occasionally when she had nothing to do, she would go down the mountain and walk around the city.Every time there were some brothers who came down the mountain together, but they were responsible for purchasing things or going to the brothel. After Jiang Li entered the city, he separated from them and wandered around alone.

For some brothers on the mountain who wanted to learn to read, Jiang Li also began to teach them some basic characters.Having been a student all year round, Jiang Li still knew very well what the teacher's teaching methods were like, and he became more proficient in it after a few classes.

The former military advisor praised Jiang Li's behavior very much, and even supervised everyone's writing when Jiang Li was away.

In the evening, after listening to everyone's stories about the rivers and lakes, Jiang Li continued to talk about "Water Margin".

The Demon Lord appeared after Jiang Li finished telling "Water Margin" again.

As soon as Jiang Li returned to the room, he saw the Demon Lord already waiting for him there.

"It's midnight, a man and a woman alone, what do you want to do?"

"Don't talk about me like I'm a flower picker, okay?"

The Demon Lord's tone was calm as usual, but there was no room for doubt.

Jiang Li also sat down and said to the Demon Lord.

"There is no tea in the house, so I won't pour you tea."

The Demon Lord waved his hand on the table, and after a burst of black energy, a pot of freshly boiled tea appeared on the table.

Jiang Li picked it up and smelled it. It was indeed tea.

"Can you change the wine?"

The Demon Lord waved his hand again, and a bottle of wine appeared on the table.

"Can you change it to some juice? Orange juice will do. I haven't had it since I came here."

"Don't take an inch."

"You can change back into either of these, but I really want some orange juice."

"...What kind of orange juice is it?"

Oranges are a hybrid between oranges and grapefruits, which did not exist in this era. Jiang Li really didn't know how to describe it to someone who had never seen an orange before.

The Demon Lord became impatient, put his hand on Jiang Li's head, and used the Soul Searching Technique.

Jiang Li only felt that he and reality seemed to be misaligned, and the Demon Lord retracted his hand, and a glass of orange juice appeared on the table.

Jiang Li picked it up and took a sip. In her previous life, she could only have one drink during holidays because her parents thought it was unhealthy.This glass of orange juice tastes exactly like I remembered.

After putting it in the cup, Jiang Li asked the Demon Lord.

"Are you here to persuade me to become an immortal?"

"Those seven idiots promised you, but I didn't. I think you are just wasting your time here."

"I really don't understand why you want me. Didn't you tell me that I might not be the savior?"

"I have been waiting for more than 2000 years. Whether you are or not, you are my only hope. You must go to become an immortal."

The Demon Lord was very excited when he spoke, and Jiang Li could clearly see that the black energy around him became more intense.

Moreover, the Demon Lord had an inherent advantage in forcing Jiang Li.

He is the villain.

"I'm not like those seven idiots. According to the divination results, you need to have great hatred for me. So I can do whatever I want to you."

"Oh, so what are you going to do?"

It has always been the case that only bandits threaten others, and no one else threatens bandits.

Jiang Li is a bandit.

She looked at the Demon Lord, and then heard the Demon Lord say.

"I've been waiting for so many days for you to have feelings for Shanzhai. If I destroy Shanzhai at this time, what will happen to you?"

"hate you."

"Is there any problem then?"

"Then let me ask you, if I hate someone, and that person lives for a war, what do you think I will do?" This was Jiang Li's attitude towards the demon lord's threat.

The Demon Lord did not answer because the answer was obvious.Becoming an Immortal Lord and fighting the Demon Lord is just following the Demon Lord's wishes. Doing everything possible to prevent the war is the real revenge.

However, the Demon Lord is not someone who is easily threatened.

"I have killed countless people and seen a lot of people's hatred. Do you think you can do such a sensible thing under extreme hatred?"

"You just read my memory. You should know that I only have my own thoughts, emotions and emotions recently. Destroying everything I have now will only return me to the purely rational past. In the end, If not, I can still die."

"You have died once, will you commit suicide?"

Jiang Li put his left arm on the table and pulled up his sleeve, revealing several scars on his wrist.

"Who told you that I would die just once? Betting on life and death with a suicidal person is stupid."

Jiang Li looked at the Demon Lord silently, and then suddenly saw a line of blue words.

"It has been detected that someone nearby is hostile to the host."

As soon as these words appeared, the black energy behind the Demon Lord gradually condensed, and then he rushed towards Jiang Li, wrapped around her neck and lifted her into the air.

"You are very interesting and courageous. But you don't know what means we have. With your current ability, your death is not yours to decide."

Jiang Li's neck was pinched and he couldn't speak in the air.However, she still had to remain calm. She knew that the Demon Lord would never kill her here.

So, she pointed at her neck, and the Demon Lord put her down.

Jiang Li waited until his neck was no longer so uncomfortable before speaking to the Demon Lord.

"I believe you can control everything about me and make me a puppet easily. But, can you ensure that you can make me a fairy master? If it was me who traveled through time instead of Ye Wuchen, what do you think? Is the script still right?”

After saying this, Jiang Li approached the Demon Lord again and spoke softly.

"If I really were the savior, what would my script be like? Do you dare to try and make mistakes?"

Being so close, Jiang Li actually wanted to see what the face behind the black air looked like, but he didn't see it.

Jiang Li sat back and picked up the glass of orange juice.

"Walk slowly."

As soon as the cup came close to the mouth, it suddenly disappeared.She smiled and the Demon Lord left.

The devil's stakes are high, but he doesn't know the rules of the game, so he can't act at will.

However, Jiang Li also felt very tired.She lay down on the bed.

The immortal cultivator, the demon lord, and the system all want to follow the script and become the immortal master.And every one of them is to the extent that she can only reason and cannot use violence.

This made Jiang Li feel that he was not competent enough as a bandit.

"System! System!"

Jiang Li shouted twice, but the system didn't appear, so she gave up and started to sleep.

In order to change his mood, Jiang Li went down the mountain to go shopping again the next day.There were no other brothers going down the mountain this time, so Jiang Li went alone.

With more experience, the people in the village are not worried that something will happen to Jiang Li in the city. Moreover, Jiang Li said that he has backup and can run back if something happens.

The Lantern Festival is over, and the city is much deserted. After all, a lot of people spend their money on the New Year and the Lantern Festival.

The owner of that noodle shop turned out to be a refugee. He originally planned to go to Niutoushan to become a bandit, but he was not born for this type of material, so he relied on the skills of the second tutor in the cottage to open a noodle shop in the city. He was also responsible for the people who came to the cottage. Help keep an eye on things, or alert you to the situation in the city.

A non-staff bandit, this is how Jiang Li described him.

After buying a bunch of things, Jiang Li came to the noodle shop and the boss came over.

"Military advisor, something happened."

"what happened?"

"The Beggar Gang may be planning something against the Shanzhai. Maybe they want to attack the Shanzhai."

"The beggar gang and our well water..."

As soon as Jiang Li finished saying this, he suddenly thought of the beggar in the temple.

The Third Master said that the beggar might be a member of the Beggar Gang.

However, something seems wrong here.First of all, that incident has been in the past for a long time. Even if the Beggar Gang wants to cause trouble for the copycat, they shouldn't wait until now.

Secondly, the boss also said that this time they were unreasonable and it was understandable that Jiang Li beat them.It would be nice if the Beggar Clan didn't come to apologize to them. How could they still think about attacking the cottage?

And the Beggar Clan is not something to be underestimated.In terms of power and status, they may not be the strongest and tallest, but they must be the most numerous.

The entire Sifang City, including the nearby villages, only has a population of about 4000. There are only 200 people in the Beggar Clan, and there are only about [-] people in the village.Moreover, beggars' gang fights are always group fights, and they must at least ensure that there are twice as many people as the other party.

The matter was serious, so Jiang Li asked his boss.

"Are you sure?"

"Basically sure. No one here knows my identity. The little food I have left every day will be distributed to the beggars nearby. They told me last night that the branch leader of Sifang City said they were going to attack Niutoushan. It is said that there are two more Reliance. They have low status and don’t know what Reliance is. It may be a weapon or a person. Today I saw that all the beggars in the city have disappeared. I asked the guards guarding the city and they said there was a large group of them early in the morning. The beggar has left the city. But they may have discussed it first at the ruined temple outside the city, and they haven’t started yet.”

"It's too late to verify it. I'll go back to the village and talk to the boss first."

As Jiang Li spoke, he took out the teleportation talisman from the props.
