Chapter 411 Begging for Cultivation
I chose the location of the station, which was in a forest on the border of Autumn Leaves.
The station was built underground, so Suiju could avoid the sight of Qiu Luoye and all the weirdos, but he needed Li Banfeng's cover.
Qiu Luoye has no time to pay attention to anything else now. He has to deal with land reclamation and school examinations, and also has to guard against people coming from Neizhou. He is very busy all day long.
Li Banfeng covered the construction of the station, and at the same time contacted Luo Zhengnan, asking him to inform Ma Wu to continue recruiting people to open up wasteland.
Ma Wuting was curious about what it would be like for thousands of people to open up wasteland in a new land.
Is Lao Qi still recruiting people?
Ma Wu looked at the account book and saw that during this period, money was spent faster than water.
How big of a deal is he going to do?
…
A beggar, with abscesses all over his body, stood in front of the gate of Xiaoyaowu, quietly looking at the people who signed up to open up wasteland.
Li Qi's reward was so high that anyone in Green Water City who was living a hard life wanted to come here and give it a try.
Needless to say, those who have been to Xindi should dare to set off on the same day.
Some of them have never even been to the New Land, so they are brave enough to follow them.
Lu Huazi shook the bowl in his hand, trying to figure out Li Qi's intention.
He wants to turn Qiu Xiang's realm into a legitimate one?
If he really succeeds, he can become the earliest landowner in Zhengdi. If the entire land belongs to him, the benefits will be great.
But just opening up wasteland is not enough. How can he get 10,000 people to live there permanently?
How much would anyone be willing to live in that poor place in Qiu Xiangxiang?
And how does he manage it?
With just the little foundation he and Ma Wu had, how difficult would it be to run a decent business?
Not even the four major families can do this kind of thing.
If Li Qi wasn't a madman, he shouldn't have done such a thing.
But now that he has done it, it proves that there must be someone helping him behind the scenes.
Who is helping him?
Why recruit people in Green Water City with great fanfare?
Green Water Beggar left Xiaoyaowu with his begging bowl.
Li Qi, an interesting person.
Interesting people are dangerous.
Who is the person behind you coming for?
If you are coming for me, I should kill you as soon as possible.
If it's not for me.
There doesn't seem to be any harm in killing you.
…
The station was completed and built in the middle of the forest.
The entrance is usually invisible and is no different from the surrounding ground.
There are seven old trees around. These old trees are all eaten by insects, but the depth of the insects varies. Each tree can make a different sound when you knock it.
The entrance can be opened by knocking on these seven old trees and playing the song "False Sermon".
With enough safety guaranteed, Li Banfeng was ready to return to Lushui City, where he would personally handle the matter and continue to recruit people to open up wasteland.
He walked this road countless times, and Li Banfeng could walk back even with his eyes closed. He crossed Hulugou, and when he was about to reach Lanyang Village, a man sat on the ground holding a bowl and shouted: "This old man is passing by.
, have mercy on me, I haven’t eaten anything for a day.”
Because it is close to Green Water Bay, Li Banfeng will be very careful when seeing beggars.
This beggar's face is relatively smooth, with no abscesses or anything like that. His clothes are in tatters, made of various rags.
Seeing that he was almost seventy years old, with sunken lips and seemingly few teeth left, Li Banfeng took out a piece of dry food and asked, "Can it be eaten?"
"Yes!" The old beggar nodded vigorously.
Li Banfeng sent the dry food over, and the old beggar took it in a bowl.
As soon as Li Banfeng let go, the dry food was about to fall into the bowl, when he suddenly heard the old beggar say in a very fast voice: "I've given you all, then..."
The words were spoken too quickly and suddenly, and Li Banfeng did not react.
The Tang sword suddenly came out of its sheath and knocked over the beggar's bowl.
The dry food did not fall into the bowl and fell to the ground.
The beggar stretched out his hand to pick up the food. The Tang knife hit the dry food, and he flicked the blade and threw the dry food aside.
"Lord, be careful! This is a beggar cultivator!"
Begging for repair?
Li Banfeng has never been exposed to this Taoism.
He had only heard that Yuan Shoulu was a cultivator of this Taoist sect and the local god of Huaziwan.
Yuan Shoulu was later defeated by Lu Huazi, and his territory was taken away. Huazi Bay became today's Lushui Bay.
Could this beggar be Yuan Shoulu?
Li Banfeng opened his golden eyes and took a look, he saw that there was a will-o'-the-wisp on his body.
This is a local god, he might actually be Yuan Shoulu!
He has actually been living next to Lu Huazi's land.
Tang Dao stabbed the beggar between the eyebrows.
The beggar didn't hide, he just picked it up with his hands and said quickly: "Have mercy on me!"
Tang Dao suddenly retracted and did not dare to stab upward.
This is not a timid fight with Tang Dao, there are techniques here.
Jiu Gulu shouted: "Begging for mercy, Brother Xiaolang, if you can't give him anything, you will lose your fighting power!"
If a beggar catches the Tang Dao, even if Li Banfeng gives him a sword, Li Banfeng will lose some combat power, not much, but he will still be exposed to other techniques.
The beggar failed to grab the Tang Dao and reached out to grab Li Banfeng.
Li Banfeng did not dare to parry and tried his best to dodge.
He was so unfamiliar with Qi Xiu that he was afraid that if he parried this, he would cause trouble again.
Facts have proved that his choice was right. If he chose to parry or fight back now, the beggar would probably take something from him.
Maybe he took a piece of debris from his body, or pulled a rag from his clothes.
Once something is snatched away from him, the beggar's skills can be used to obtain it.
Seeing Li Banfeng dodge, the beggar came to grab Li Banfeng's lapel again. Li Banfeng was fast and could always dodge first.
The beggar couldn't catch Li Banfeng, so he suddenly took out a bamboo from his arms.
Li Banfeng thought it was a weapon or a magic weapon, but he didn't expect the beggar to take the bamboo and put it to his mouth and started playing music.
This is a musical instrument called Chi (pronounced Chi).
Not to mention, the beggar's blowing was really nice, and Li Banfeng sincerely thought it sounded nice.
Gourd shouted: "Brother Xiaolang, you can't listen! This is begging for food!"
While he was talking, Tang Dao had already stabbed the bamboo pipe.
What will happen if you hear this?
After listening to this piece of music, Li Banfeng must give something to the beggar. If he doesn't give it, he will feel uncomfortable.
It doesn't matter whether it's food or money. As long as you give him something, you'll fall victim to his skills and you'll also lose part of your combat power.
Li Banfeng didn't know the reason for this, he only knew that the bamboo pipe was powerful.
Tang Dao shrank, not daring to fight the beggar. Li Banfeng picked up a stone from the ground and threw it towards the bamboo pipe.
Within five meters, never miss.
The stone accurately hit the bamboo pipe and broke it.
The bamboo pipes used by beggars are specially made and need to be maintained using special methods. A beggar can usually only carry one bamboo pipe. Now that the bamboo pipe is broken, there is nowhere to repair it, and the skill of blowing the chi to beg is no longer available.
.
Unexpectedly, the beggar threw away the bamboo pipe, leaned over to pick up the stones that fell at his feet, and said in his mouth: "I gave it to you..."
The Tang Dao swung its blade and came to chop the beggar's hand. The beggar grabbed the Tang Dao, and the Tang Dao hurriedly dodged, and the beggar went to pick up stones again.
Jiu Gourd shouted: "If you push too hard, you can't let him pick up stones!"
Li Banfeng really didn't expect that a stone could be considered a charity.
When you meet an ordinary beggar, you have to give something useful to be considered alms, but this beggar has such a high level of cultivation that even if he spits on him, this beggar will accept it.
Begging for mercy and begging for food are all techniques for taking away combat power. What you gain is not too much, and the loss is not too big.
What's really scary is that as long as you are hit by these techniques, subsequent extravagant techniques will be triggered.
This is the ninth-level skill of the begging cultivator. Once he receives alms, the begging cultivator will continue to ask for things. He may ask for limbs, internal organs, or magic weapons. If the gap in cultivation is large enough, it may even cost his life. At this time, even if you don't give it, you have to give it.
.
The beggar lowered his head to look for a stone, and Li Banfeng had an opportunity.
His figure suddenly disappeared.
The beggar raised his eyebrows and said, "Just looking at the flowers?"
He did not rush to search for traces of Li Banfeng, but stood there and waited quietly.
After succeeding in the technique, Li Banfeng was afraid that he would not die, so he prepared to use another move to break through Wanchuan, but was stopped by Tang Dao.
What did he do to stop me...
Li Banfeng was startled, but saw that the beggar was still standing, not much changed.
Crack!
The beggar had a gash on his face.
How big is the opening?
It was more than an inch long, and there was a little blood, but it was obviously not deep.
Li Banfeng was startled. He knew that the Yunshang cultivator could withstand the power of a quickie, and he never thought of using one fatal move, but he did not expect that the quickie technique would cause such little damage.
"Hehe~" the beggar smiled, touched his face and said, "It hurts a lot."
Gourd whispered: "Thick-skinned."
The skill of Qi Xiu, Thick-Skinned, can transform fatal injuries on the body into a scar on the face. Because the face is extremely thick-skinned, the damage caused by this scar is extremely limited.
The defensive power of this technique is comparable to that of Zhaixinrenhou, but unlike Zhaixinrenhou, it has a limit on the number of times. As long as the physical strength is sufficient, Qixiu can always use the shameless and thick-skinned technique. The only flaw is that the preparation time of the technique is a bit long.
The beggar has more combat experience than Li Banfeng. When he lowers his head to pick up stones, he is tempting Li Banfeng to take action. He is already prepared to be thick-skinned.
He expected that Li Banfeng would be ferocious enough with his speedy skills and would continue to pursue the victory, but he did not expect to be stopped by Tang Dao.
Hulu took the time to whisper in Li Banfeng's ear: "Brother Xiaolang, don't run away, that stone is still on the ground."
A few seconds have passed since the stone was thrown. Is the beggar's technique still effective?
It stands to reason that it should have failed, but Hulu dare not bet on it.
"I'm not too familiar with Qixiu. His cultivation level is too high. It's hard to say how long the technique will last. Brother Xiaolang, please wait a little longer and try to delay it for one minute."
One minute?
When encountering such a master, delaying for even one second could be fatal.
While thinking, the Tang Dao suddenly returned to Li Banfeng's pocket, and Li Banfeng ran away.
The beggar did not pick up the stones, but chased after him.
Li Banfeng made the right bet.
Why is he so bold to gamble?
The reason came from the moment he threw the dry food.
Before the dry food fell into the bowl, the beggar shouted: "Everyone is coming..."
He only had to wait a little longer for the dry food to go into the bowl before shouting, and Li Banfeng would fall into the trap.
But why was he shouting so urgently?
Then the dry food was knocked away by Tang Dao. Why didn't the beggar pick it up?
Li Banfeng deduced from this that Qixiu's technique is subject to strict time restrictions in its use. From the beginning of giving alms to the execution of the technique, it should be completed in a very short time. It is possible that a thrown stone is not picked up for a few seconds.
The statute of limitations has expired.
This is too suspenseful. What if the bet is wrong?
If the bet was wrong, the beggar would definitely pick up the stone. Before he picked it up, Li Banfeng turned back and fought with him. Anyway, he was faster than him and still had a chance.
After running for less than a minute, the beggar stopped chasing him. He could not catch up.
"Okay, boy, you can still run so fast even if you use horse racing."
The beggar looked around and felt a little uneasy when Li Banfeng escaped.
It's okay, if you don't tell him, he won't know.
The beggar returned to his original place and was about to continue squatting when he suddenly saw another beggar with a face full of abscesses walking over from a distance.
Green flowers!
The beggar quickly stood up and smiled at Lu Huazi.
Lu Huazi looked at the beggar's face: "Are you injured?"
The beggar shook his head and said, "No, my face is itchy and I scratched it myself."
The corners of Luhuazi's eyes trembled: "Shameless and thick-skinned, you used your skills. He has been here before, right?" Luhuazi smiled.
The beggar pursed his lips: "There is someone, it seems to be him, I can't tell..."
Luhuazi touched the beggar's cheek, and a pimple appeared on the beggar's face.
The beggar trembled and said, "I really don't know if that's him!"
Luhuazi smiled and said: "Let him go again, and I will kill you!"
PS: Luhuazi is too ruthless. He will kill someone without even finding out the reason!
