Chapter 2 Meeting Hong Qigong by chance

Qian Xiaoxing wandered around barefoot for a while without purpose. He didn't know how long it took. Until he saw that the streets were basically closed, he realized that it would be better to stay still. At least he could save some energy. Seeing that a small alley was a little dark, he walked in and survived the night here...

"Hey! There are people here!"

Qian Xiaoxing was shocked when he heard someone talking. He looked carefully in the moonlight and found that this was a dead end. There was a beggar lying in the middle of the alley. The beggar was about forty years old, with hair randomly covered with dark faces, and could not see clearly his facial features. He was wearing a torn coat, with a broken bowl, a few bags and a bamboo stick next to it. He hadn't taken a shower for a long time, and a sour smell came over him.

"Do you have any food?" Qian Xiaoxing, who had never been hungry, felt how much a threat to people. Hunger made him desperately ask whenever he saw people.

"I actually asked me if you are a fool, get out!" the beggar said in a tough tone and cursed.

"I'm really hungry. Can you give me some food first?" Qian Xiaoxing sat next to the beggar, covering his croaking stomach, so hungry that he couldn't walk anymore.

"I will leave you with food! I'll let you leave quickly, have you heard it?" Seeing Qian Xiaoxing's weird dress, the beggar thought that Qian Xiaoxing was also begging for food. The beggar also has territory. He doesn't want his territory to be snatched away.

"Let me sleep for one night, I can't walk anymore." It seems that I was too lucky today. There are people rushing to find a place to sleep. As a typical example of failure, I was so successful. Qian Xiaoxing thought to himself depressedly.

"Then let's sleep for one night!" The beggar felt much more relieved when he saw that he was not here to grab the territory. He was bored at night, so he could find someone to accompany him and would not rush Qian Xiaoxing away anymore.

"Thank you, haven't asked for your surname?" Qian Xiaoxing was very curious about the Beggars' Sect in the previous martial arts films, so he started talking to the Beggar.

"My surname is Hong, and my family ranks seventh. Everyone calls me Hong Qi. What's your name?"

"Qian Xiaoxing."

"Little brother is kidding. There is money in the beggar, so be careful!" The beggar pointed at Qian Xiaoxing with his fingers and said with a smile.

"It's not Qian Xiaoxin. My surname is Qian, Chunxiao's Xiao, Xingxing's Xing." Qian Xiaoxing explained helplessly again, why did my father give this name, it was really a harsh person.

"Oh, it's not that you ask Qian to be careful!"

"My name is Qian Xiaoxing."

"Then why did you say no?"

"My Qian Xiaoxing is not what you said to be careful about money."

"Who is the money to be careful?"

"I...I..." For the illiterate Hong Qi, it seems that he can't explain clearly: "Just call me Xiao Qian!"

"Why is it small money? Why is it not big money or silver? Your name is so funny!"

Qian Xiaoxing almost collapsed: "My surname is Qian!"

"So it's Brother Qian, I'm always thinking about you."

"What do you want me to do?" Qian Xiaoxing asked curiously.

"Who doesn't want the money!"

"Okay, let's not mention my name. You said your name is Hong Qi. Could it be that Hong Qigong in the Beggars' Sect?"

"That's how my distant cousin's nephew's nephew calls me."

When Qian Xiaoxing heard that he finally found the Beggars' Sect, he couldn't help but be very happy. He forgot how much hungry he was. He asked excitedly: "Then how many bags do you have now?"

"How many bags? What kind of bags?"

"Just a few pockets?" Qian Xiaoxing remembered that the highest among the Beggars' Sect was nine bags.

"Oh, four bags." Hong Qi thought about putting things on his own and used four bags.

"Hong Qi, I think this name is quite strange. Why do you want to give it such a name?"

Hong Qi thought about it, but he was not very clear, so he couldn't answer for a while.

"Can't remember it? There is no need to answer. As the elder of the Four Bags, do you feel pressured?"

"Of course there will be some pressure." Hong Qi thought that sometimes he would not have enough food to eat.

Hong Qi is indeed the boss, and whoever is the leader of his territory, Qian Xiaoxing began to admire him and continued to ask: "Then what color do you like?"

"I like the color, white, I like it when I see white rice."

Fortunately, I wore a white vest, and Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but think: "Then can I join your Beggars' Sect?"

"No! Want to compete with me for territory?" Hong Qi refused firmly.

"No, I admire you very much. Please accept me as my younger brother." Qian Xiaoxing thought that if he got into the Beggars' Sect, he would not be starved to death.

"Really? Then I'll accept you." Hong Qi felt that this little brother was very fun and was very close to him. The two of them started chatting with each other.

Qian Xiaoxing and Hong Qi asked some begging methods, and planned to beg when they really starved to death, but they could only beg for some. Unexpectedly, the one who was a time traveler would fall into the Beggars' Sect, and they couldn't help but feel sad inexplicably.

As we chatted, Qian Xiaoxing's stomach began to roar again. Hong Qi heard Qian Xiaoxing's stomach roaring and said, "Brother Qian is indeed hungry. I originally prepared my midnight snack. I will give it to you if I am destined to do it!" As he said that, he took out half a bowl of white rice from the cloth bag and handed it to Qian Xiaoxing.

Qian Xiaoxing seemed to have seen a naked woman, her eyes shining and she stared at the rice.

Qian Xiaoxing never thought that he would be so eager for a bowl of white rice, and that a bowl of white rice would have such a great temptation.

"Thank you, Brother Hong." Qian Xiaoxing was not polite, grabbed the rice with his hands and brought it to his mouth and started eating: "Wow, there are shredded pork in the rice, no, it's pork chop. Brother Hong is so amazing that he can actually get such a good meal."

"Haha, I'm also surprised. Today I went to beg for food. The owner of the family told me that I would ask me to answer two questions and give me a bowl of white rice. Of course I said it would be OK. It's okay to try it."

"Oh, what's the problem?" Qian Xiaoxing asked vaguely with rice in his mouth.

"The first question is, what is it that you can't see or touch?"

Qian Xiaoxing thought about it, but he didn't think it out for a moment: "Then how did you answer?"

"I don't know how to do such a question either. I was embarrassed to grab the back of my head. I was about to leave, but he said I answered it correctly. I was surprised, and I didn't say anything."

"I can't see and touch it, isn't it just the back of my head? Brother Hong is so smart." Seeing this bowl of rice, Qian Xiaoxing kept flattering.

"The second question, he asked me what I could see but couldn't touch. I don't know anything about such a question. Thinking about God doesn't want me to eat this bowl of rice, I glared at the sky."

"What did that person say?" Qian Xiaoxing had finished the meal and was checking everywhere about the unfallen rice grains, and found them one by one and fed them into his mouth.

"The man said I answered correctly and gave me this bowl of rice."

"Isn't that the sun in the sky? The sun is just invisible and cannot be touched. Brother Hong accidentally solved two major problems. It really makes me admire him. My admiration for you is like the continuous river, and the flooding of the Yellow River is uncontrollable."

"Look at you, kid, are very smart, don't worry, I, Hong Qi, will be free from my meal in the future." Hong Qi said happily after hearing this.

"By the way, your Beggars' Sect's treasure, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, will you?"

"Ten slaps? What's the difficulty?"

"Wow, senior is indeed very skilled in martial arts, and he is still a hero."

Hong Qi was so happy that he was photographed by Qian Xiaoxing's horse. He thought it was really good to accept such a little brother, at least he could make him happier.

The two sat on the ground and kept talking. The waning moon quietly rose to the sky, and the streets were pounding the clapper, causing several barkings.

The two chatted happily until late at night. Hong Qi fell asleep slowly. Qian Xiaoxing finished half of Hong Qi's rice. Although he was not full, he didn't feel hungry. The excitement of traveling through time had not passed, and he didn't feel sleepy at all. He lay on his back and looked at the stars in the sky. There were sounds of grasshoppers around him from time to time.

After chatting with Hong Qi for a while, Qian Xiaoxing felt much better. He was looking forward to his future life in his mind. What would he do when traveling to ancient times? Is it like those traveling novels that he can get an official position? If possible, he can still live with the emperor?

However, your historical achievements are very bad. Can you use sporadic historical knowledge to come in handy? Moreover, your food and clothing problem has not been solved, so don’t be starved to death.

I will never see my relatives in my life. I am an orphan in this world. Without my family around me, I have to rely on myself for everything. Can I deal with it? Will I get used to this identity?

Qian Xiaoxing thought about it and finally fell asleep unknowingly.

In the morning, Qian Xiaoxing was awakened by the noisy voices on the street. When he opened his eyes, he saw Hong Qi's dirty face. Hong Qi was lying beside Qian Xiaoxing, staring at Qian Xiaoxing's face from close range.

Qian Xiaoxing was startled and hurriedly sat up and checked. Seeing that he had not been molested by Hong Qi at night, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but found that he had a blanket covered with it, only Hong Qi's, and he couldn't help but feel warm.

However, Hong Qi stared at him and looked a little strange. Does Hong Qi have a hobby of liking men?

"Get up soon, early birds eat insects!" Hong Qi said while packing his things.

"Why did I hear that early insects are eaten by birds? Brother Hong, what are you staring at me just now?" Qian Xiaoxing wanted to confirm whether Hong Qi was suspected of glass. Although he had followed him in the future, he didn't want to be exposed to analm.

"Look at your slender skin and tender flesh, and you are so handsome. How can you ask for food like this? I want to put on makeup for you." Hong Qi picked up some mud from the ground and applied it to Qian Xiaoxing's face.

"It turns out that I have to put on makeup. It seems that beggars are also a masterpiece. But you painted me three fingers on both sides. Will I look like a cat?" Qian Xiaoxing confirmed that Hong Qi was not suspected of glass, so he felt much more at ease.

"You also want me to wipe your face for you? If you are a little lady, I would be very willing." Hong Qi said with a smile.

"No need for Brother Hong, I will do it myself." Qian Xiaoxing painted his face with both hands, and his whole face became dirty. Hong Qi tidied his hair again. After dipped some soil on his hair, he deliberately sorted it out in a mess. He nodded with satisfaction until the weeds ran around.

"Brother Hong, where are we going to the first stop?"

"No need to go, just guard here. Do you see the door? Someone will come out to pay later." Hong Qi said, pointing to a door in the alley.

Qian Xiaoxing looked around. At this time, the sun had just risen. The alley was not deep. There was a family on both sides. The door that Hong Qi had just pointed to looked like a yard inside, with blue bricks and black tiles on the yard wall, but now the double doors were closed.

"It's so good. You can get money when sleeping here. Beggars are indeed a good job!"

"I just discovered this. This family is very kind and will give me some money every time. Don't spread it."

"Understand that I will strictly follow professional ethics and codes of conduct and will never disclose trade secrets. But when will they come out?"

"I guess I'll count thirty times, and I should come out. Listen to you, one, two, three, four...3156, three, one hundred and fifty-seven, three, one hundred and fifty-eight..."

"Brother Hong, have you calculated it wrong?" Qian Xiaoxing saw that he had counted more than 3,000 yuan, and he was sleepy again, and he was so hungry that he was pressed against his back. He asked weakly.

“Three thousand three hundred and thirty.”

When Hong Qishu arrived here, the door finally opened.
