His sneeze was quite loud, startling the others who were traveling with him. The prey all ran away in fright. However, seeing that it was him who sneezed, none of them got angry. Instead, they asked with concern:
"Sixth brother, have you caught a cold?"
Ever since they heard Shen Lili call him "Old Six" last time, everyone in the team started calling him that, either "Old Six Brother" or "Old Six Brother".
Every time An Liu heard this, he had an illusion that these people were secretly cursing him, but looking at their sincere eyes, it seemed that was not the case.
"No problem."
After saying that, he led his men to continue looking for prey. If the prey was scared away, they would have to look for it again.
Pei Yu returned to the carriage and took out three thin books and handed them to Chen Li. "These are relatively mild and not very picky about people and qualifications. Of course, they are not as powerful as yours."
"It's just that your brothers are all quite old. Perhaps they can only strengthen their bodies throughout their lives and it will be difficult for them to enter the Dao."
Chen Li knew very well that what he said was the truth. Some things cannot be forced. In fact, it is good to be able to strengthen the body. At least it is much better than ordinary people.
But she has spiritual fruits, so maybe she can get some unexpected gains.
"I understand. Thank you, Master Wei."
Chen Li looked at them one by one. There was a book on internal energy: Hunyuan Sutra; a book on swordsmanship: Arhat Swordsmanship; and a book on palm techniques: Gale Palm.
I nodded in my heart, yes, this person is very reliable most of the time.
Seeing her expression, Pei Yu knew that he was very satisfied with the martial arts he chose, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
However, after he noticed it, he quickly suppressed the smile on his face, and this scene of his facial change was not seen by others.
After collecting the things in his hands, he realized that he was only half an arm's length away from Wei Zian. He took two steps back and said, "Thank you, Master Wei. I'm leaving."
Pei Yu was speechless. He was unhappy. What did her action just now mean?
Tianqing, who was standing aside, felt a headache when he saw this. It seemed that the master's mood had been controlled by Miss Shen recently?
Can't it?
Otherwise, let’s observe for a while longer!
Chen Li put away the three martial arts secret manuals. Her elder brother and cousin could only practice in the morning, noon and evening. They had to take turns driving the cart during the day, but they could still take turns practicing.
She was in a good mood at the moment, and anyone could see it.
Soon, An Liu and Shen Changshan led a group of people back. Except for the few prey that were scared away, there was no other harvest. All the wild vegetables had been picked.
Lin Cuicui was frying pork, which she bought when she left the city this morning. It wasn't much, but just enough for lunch. She put a lot of fresh peppers in the pot to fry together.
The smell of pork mixed with the smell of chili wafted out, instantly stimulating Chenli's taste buds.
The meal started soon. Just as they put down their bowls, a dozen refugees knelt in front of them.
Everyone stopped what they were doing, and the only ones still eating were Chen Li, Pei Yu, and Shen Yuanzhou.
The refugees looked at them with longing eyes, including a few skinny children.
"Please, kind people, buy me something to eat!"
“Please!”
"Woo, wow wow wow~"
While praying, these people kowtowed on the ground. There were a lot of gravel on the ground, and they kowtowed with great force, and soon their foreheads became red and swollen.
I've encountered this situation before, but now these refugees are kowtowed too hard.
Shen Changshan put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand and glanced to the side. Now many refugees nearby were looking at them with burning eyes.
Looking over at their side, two women had expressions of pity on their faces.
"Go ahead. We don't have any extra food for you." After speaking to the refugees, he whispered to his own team, "Eat. We can't take care of that."
After hearing this, the others immediately started eating with their bowls and chopsticks, no longer looking at the person kneeling on the ground.
They also knew in their hearts that they couldn't take the lead, otherwise the refugees would rush in.
Shen Changshan and Lin Hu stood up, drew out their big knives and placed them aside. There were traces of dried blood on the blades, which they had left there on purpose.
The dozen or so refugees did not stand up, but continued to kneel on the ground, looking at them with pleading eyes.
They looked resentful, and the group quickly finished their lunch and put it away.
Seeing that they were really hard-hearted and refused to give them any food, the refugees finally got up and left angrily.
Chen Li was quite satisfied with the decision made by his father. There was no shortage of water in Luozhou, so naturally there would be food to eat. As long as he was willing to work hard, survival would not be a problem.
The dozen or so refugees simply saw that they had so many carriages and thought that they were the kind of people who spent money lavishly, so they wanted to try their luck.
Unfortunately, they were wrong. Their identities were the same, so how could we sympathize with them?
After they left, Shen Changshan warned them again: "Next time this happens, don't be soft on them. Otherwise, the refugees around here won't be pushovers. If they rush over, we'll suffer a great loss."
Everyone nodded, they also understood this logic.
"Okay, leave two people to watch over it, and the others can go and rest."
It's quite cool in this woods, so I can have a good nap at noon.
Chen Li originally planned to show the secret book to his brothers in the evening, but unexpectedly, when he was chatting with Pei Yu just now, his third brother saw this scene and came up to find out.
"Ali, is that a martial arts secret that you just received from Master Wei?"
Shen Yuanzhou looked at Shen Li expectantly, his puppy eyes wide and round.
Wanting to tease her third brother, Shen Li shook her head: "No, third brother, you are wrong!"
"Is that so?"
Her thick eyelashes immediately drooped, and she pulled her head closer, looking as if she had lost all hope in life.
Just as he was about to turn around and go back to sleep, he heard his little sister say, "Third brother, I just lied to you."
Shen Yuanzhou immediately turned around and looked at Shen Li expectantly, "A Li, hurry up, take it out and show it to Third Brother!"
Chen Li took out all three books without hesitation. Shen Yuanzhou took them, flipped through them and looked at them for a few seconds. Then his brows furrowed, and he no longer looked happy.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Yuanzhou found it a little difficult to speak, but when he thought about it, this secret book must be very rare, and it was no big deal to embarrass himself in front of his younger sister.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to speak, she heard Shen Qi'an come over and explain to Shen Li: "Little sister, you don't know, but my third brother was lazy when he was learning to read, so he can't recognize all the words in this book."
Shen Li was silent, she never thought it was because of this reason.
Shen Yuanzhou would have been angry if he had seen his fourth brother expose him in front of his younger sister, but that was not the point now.
He grabbed Shen Qi'an as if he was a life-saving straw. He was too embarrassed to ask about his younger sister, but it was different for the fourth one.
Pointing to a word in the book, he said, "Lao Si, come here, how do you pronounce this word?"
