There are probably only a few places where homeless children usually end up: being kidnapped and sold by human traffickers, being caught by beggars who torture them and then release them to ask for money, or being adopted by kind people...

But the probability of being adopted by a kind-hearted person is too low.

Moreover, being adopted by a good person would not provide any positive help to Duger's current situation. In theory, affiliating with an organization is the best solution.

After so many days, he still hadn't awakened a single skill. In this world full of gods and demons, he had no skills and no sense of security.

I have to find a way to secretly make this world more vicious.

…

The town where Duger lived was called Fancheng, a remote county far away from Kyoto. As far as Tieniu could remember, it had never snowed here. Even when it was the coldest, people would just put on an extra layer of clothes.

so.

Fancheng's geographical location should be subtropical.

"Good man, please have mercy on me. I haven't eaten for three days."

On the streets of Fancheng, Du Ge walked and begged, observing the distribution of power in the city. There were both men and women walking on the streets, and occasionally young men and women walking together, as well as warriors or knights with swords on their waists.

Therefore, the customs in this world should be relatively relaxed.

period.

Du Ge passed by the county government office once.

There were two stone lions squatting at the gate of the county government office, and there were yamen runners on duty at the gate. The runners didn't even pay attention to him and didn't notice anything unusual about him, a little beggar.

Then, Duger walked around the Earth God Temple and the City God Temple.

The Earth God Temple is a small temple with a few incense sticks as offerings, while the City God Temple is much larger and is managed by a temple keeper. From time to time, people go in to burn incense and pray for blessings.

After worshipping the City God, pilgrims will ask for a lot from the temple keeper, who will interpret the lot for them.

Du Ge eavesdropped on the temple priest's interpretation of the divination. He heard all the words he said were clichés and were ambiguous. They could be interpreted in any way, and he seemed more like a liar.

If even such a person can openly serve as a temple priest, then the interference of the gods in this world in the mortal world can be said to be minimal.

Come to think of it, if everything is managed by gods and ghosts, what is the use of officials in the world? To be safe, Du Ge did not dare to enter the City God Temple to see the configuration inside.

His current strength is that of an adult. If he is seen through, he will be trapped. At that time, he will have no choice but to expose his supernatural powers.

Moreover, gods and ghosts have always been able to become invisible to mortals, so Duger has no idea how to face them at this stage.

Therefore, you still have to learn the magic.

I just don't know if it's easy to sneak into the Immortal Gate. Children's bodies are at a disadvantage. No matter what they do, they are very conspicuous. Once they get into the Immortal Gate, they can find anything unusual even without a magic mirror.

If it had not been discovered at the time, he would probably have been treated as a key observation target.

The most crucial point is that the person Duger possessed was a cowherd boy who had never received any education. He did not recognize the characters of this world. Even if he joined the Immortal Sect, he had to find a way to understand the characters of this world first.

Every step is a hurdle. This is the most difficult start in all the alien battlefields he has ever had. If he is not careful in the early stages, he will not be able to succeed.

…

Due to his physical fitness, Doug can only sense the surrounding area within 20 meters. However, in this small town, the perception of more than 20 meters is enough.

A child's body is an advantage when begging. After begging on a few streets, Dug earned a lot of money.

At that moment, Doug noticed that several eyes were staring at him.

A pilgrim coming out of the City God Temple, perhaps because he had prayed for a good fortune, saw Du Ge and rewarded him with a silver bean at once. Du Ge could even feel that the gazes that had been staring at him suddenly became warmer.

There were also a few beggars with broken limbs who occasionally cast sympathetic glances at Doug. They understood what was going to happen next, but no one spoke up to warn him.

…

What does it mean that there is a god above your head?

What is the saying that good is rewarded with good and evil is punished with evil? For evildoers, if the punishment does not really fall on them, they will not care about it.

For Doug, these villains who are targeting him are the basic foundation for him to contact and integrate into the world.

The street was crowded and it was difficult to start, so Doug bought a few sesame cakes on the roadside, put a few in his arms, held one in his hand, and ate while walking out of the city.

There are many people in the city, and cruel people are bound to hurt and kill people. At this sensitive moment, Doug must try his best to reduce the risk of exposure.

But the villains were obviously more anxious than Douger. When Douger walked a street corner, two carriages crossed each other, blocking the view of passers-by, and Douger's mouth was covered with a handkerchief.

A pungent smell came from the handkerchief. Doug struggled for a few times, his head tilted, and he fainted.

The power of Poseidon can control all forms of water. It is simply wishful thinking for these guys to use drugs to knock him out. Even if Douger inhales these drugs completely into his lungs, he can still expel them perfectly under the influence of water vapor.

Those villains had done such things many times, so their movements were quick and decisive. After knocking Doug unconscious, they carried him into the carriage. Even the half piece of pancake that fell from Doug's hand was caught by him, as if there had never been a beggar walking on the street.

A hand reached into Douger's arms, took away all the copper coins and silver beans he begged, and laughed: "This little bastard is so lucky. He begged for three coins in a short time. If he breaks his legs, he will be another cash cow..."

A scarred young man on the other side of the carriage turned Doug's face around and looked at him carefully. "Old Five, you've made a mistake. This kid must have run away from some rich family. Although his face is a little dirty, he has delicate skin and tender flesh, and he looks very good. If we clean him up and sell him to Longliu Villa, we can probably make a lot of money."

Tietou herds cattle every day, exposed to the wind and sun, and not having enough food to eat, so he is pale and thin, with very rough skin. But in the past few days, with the nourishment of Douger's mental power and some attribute transformation, a layer of rough and dull skin has been replaced.

Apart from being a little dirty, the skin is really delicate and tender.

The guy called Lao Wu carefully pinched Doug's face with his big hands, and said with surprise in his tone: "Brother Niu, you are really careful. This little guy might have really run away from some rich family. We are rich this time, but it's a pity for this little guy. I'm afraid he will suffer..."

"Don't rush to send them to Longliu Villa." Brother Niu chuckled, "I'll ask the brothers to find out if there are any children missing in the surrounding counties. See if the price they offer is high enough. Maybe we can earn more by sending them back, and save some trouble.

Otherwise, if a nobleman goes to Longliu Villa and sleeps with his own son, we will be the ones who suffer in the end. Lao Wu, in our line of work, we must be extremely cautious, bold and careful in order to live long..."

"Brother Niu is teaching us a lesson, otherwise we brothers would obey you!" Lao Wu took a bite of the pancake and said while chewing, "It's a pity that we brothers are not good enough. Otherwise, with Brother Niu's brain, we can also make a name for ourselves in the world."

"That's far from enough." Brother Niu stroked the scar on his face. "There are always people who are better than you. If you meet someone who knows martial arts, you'd better stay away from him. Those guys really don't take human life seriously!"

"Brother Niu is right..." Lao Wu agreed hesitantly.

The carriage did not stop and drove away along the alley.

Doug could sense that there were three other people in the yard, two of them were drinking under a tree, and one was carrying a stone lock to build up his strength.

I heard a knock on the door.

The man who had been gathering his strength dropped the stone lock and hurried over to open the door. Seeing Brother Niu and the other man, he bowed and nodded to them, "Brother Niu, Fifth Brother."

Then, he reached out to pick up Doug.

But his hand had not yet reached Doug.

Doug's eyes suddenly opened, and he reached down and grabbed the dagger that was inserted into Lao Wu's waist.

Under the astonished gaze of the opposite person, Doug raised his knife-holding hand hard and cut off Lao Wu's wrist.

Lao Wu screamed in pain and let go of Douger.

Brother Niu, who was walking in front of him, reacted very quickly. Without looking back, he suddenly jumped forward, trying to distance himself from Dugra.

But how could Douger give him a chance? Although he only had the strength of an adult, he had played in so many alien battlefields, and his fighting skills were not comparable to those of a few scoundrels who cut and mutilated people. What's more, he was still calculating without any intention.

Brother Niu was not prepared at all for an unconscious child to suddenly attack them.

"Puff! " A muffled sound came out.

The dagger in Doug's hand had already stabbed into Brother Niu's lower back.

There was another scream, and Brother Niu rushed out even faster than before.

The young man who came to open the door for them finally reacted, roared, and punched Doug on the head.

Doug tilted his head, raised the dagger, and stabbed it into his lower abdomen.

The young man seemed to have never suffered such a serious injury. He widened his eyes in disbelief, looked at Doug, rolled his eyes, fell to the ground, and fainted from fright.

At this time.

The two drunken men also reacted. They picked up the single-edged swords placed beside them and rushed towards Doug. However, after two steps, they stopped at the same time and looked at Doug with fear in their eyes.

Then.

One of them felt his knees weaken and he fell to the ground with a thud.

The other man loosened his hand, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.

Doug did not chase Brother Niu. Instead, he pulled the dagger that had stabbed into the young man's abdomen downwards, ripped him open, pulled out his intestines with one hand, and then showed a ferocious smile to the two people who were rushing towards him.

Chop hands, poke kidneys, stab lower abdomen...

The series of actions were completed almost in a flash, and each action was accompanied by blood splashing, and Doug's attributes made it impossible for him to dodge.

He was short, and the blood of the three people sprayed all over his head and face. In addition, his expressionless action of pulling his intestines made him look like an evil ghost collecting debts. Who wouldn't be scared when seeing him! Moreover, they had done so many evil things and harmed so many children. When they saw Douge, they immediately thought of the evil ghost demanding their lives. How could they dare to resist? Brother Niu turned around and saw the scene of the intestines being pulled. He screamed, and regardless of the injury in his lower back, he struggled to climb over the wall to escape, while Lao Wu, whose left hand was chopped off by Douge, turned around and rushed out of the yard.

Doug stretched out his foot and hooked Lao Wu, tripping him, then threw the bloody dagger in his hand away.

The dagger was nailed to the wall, and Brother Niu was so frightened that he trembled and sat down on the ground with a plop.

"You've offended me and you still want to run away?" Doug looked around at the people in the yard, grinned grimly, stepped on Lao Wu, turned around to close the gate, and bolted it. Then he bent down again, pulled Lao Wu with one hand and the young man with his intestines exposed with the other hand, and came to the middle of the yard step by step, as lightly as dragging two dead dogs.

A long trail of blood was left behind him.

This horrifying and incongruous scene frightened the two uninjured people so much that they trembled all over, tears streaming down their faces, and begged for mercy tremblingly.

"Please spare my life, Grandpa Ghost, please spare my life. Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. It was Niu Sanbao who killed you. He was the instigator of all the evil deeds. You can seek revenge on him. It has nothing to do with us!"

"Grandpa Ghost, spare me, it's all because of Niu Sanbao, we were forced into this!"

Niu Sanbao glared at them fiercely, then looked at Duger, who swallowed his saliva, knelt on the ground, and said stutteringly: "Senior, I was blind and didn't recognize the great man. I offended you. Please spare my life for my ignorance. I am willing to give you all the money I have accumulated over the years..."

He had a strong observation ability. When he saw the shadow under Duger's feet, he naturally knew that he was not a ghost. And when he heard him say "old man", he naturally regarded him as a master in the martial arts world. He might also be a demon monk or a monster who had taken over someone else's body. According to legend, after an evil monk is defeated, it is possible for him to take over the body of another person and be reborn.

"Do you know me?" Duger laughed evilly, sat on the stool with a big horse and a golden sword, looked at Niu Sanbao, and was cutting open the abdomen and pulling out the intestines. It was really cruel. His attributes jumped up a lot.

"..." Niu Sanbao was stunned and shook his head, "I don't know him."

"I don't know him. What do you mean by ignoring a great man?" Doug snorted and kicked the knife at his feet. "Which hand touched my face just now? Cut it off yourself..."

"..." Niu Sanbao was stunned for a moment, gritted his teeth, picked up the knife on the ground, closed his eyes, and chopped off his right hand. He didn't dare to scream, dropped the steel knife in his hand, clenched his wrist tightly, and forced an ugly smile on his face, "Please forgive me, senior."

"Although what you did was not very good, you are a real man, and it is worth my training you." Duger looked at Niu Sanbao with approval and chuckled.

Cultivation?

Niu Sanbao was stunned, beads of sweat the size of soybeans oozing from his forehead. He said with difficulty: "I don't know what you mean, senior?"

"You are quite good. Follow me and be my boy!" Duger snorted and said, "Killing one is a sin. Killing ten thousand makes you a hero. Killing ten thousand out of ten thousand makes you the best of the best. In life, we should take revenge and take pleasure in revenge. Kill gods if gods stand in our way, and kill Buddhas if Buddhas stand in our way. What I hate most is villains like you who bully the weak. If it weren't for the fact that my power has not yet recovered, you scum wouldn't be the ones to serve me..."

"Thank you, senior." Niu Sanbao was stunned again, then bowed his head, "I am willing to serve you until you recover your strength."

"You don't mean what you say." Doug snorted.

"Senior, I am sincere and not saying a word of falsehood." Niu Sanbao knew that this was his last chance to survive, and he kowtowed repeatedly.

"I cut off your hand, don't you blame me?" Doug asked.

"I dare not." Niu Sanbao said hurriedly, "I have offended you, senior. You should punish me."

"Coward." Doug snorted and said, "If you don't even have the courage to seek revenge, you are not worthy of being my boy. You'd better die!"

"..." Niu Sanbao was stunned. Are you sick? "If I were you, and someone cut off my hand, I would pretend to be nice to him, and kill him when I get the chance. That's what a man should do." Doug glanced at him and taught him a lesson.
