Chapter 43

I didn't expect that the book had so many shots and could attract the attention of everyone present.

As the author of the book, Shen Yuqing said he would have to be low-key and humble.

The game has a high degree of freedom in operation, and this book is the product of an activity to create cheats for the game. As for Shen Yuqing, it was naturally for the event costume. Although it was just a white dress, he, who has a bit of a collecting habit, would not let it go.

Game planner: What do you mean by just a white coat? Are you so lacking in thought? Think carefully, do those hermits wear white coats and stand alone? Tell me yes!

Qiu Muli: As expected, everyone’s mental state is unstable.

Because it is very easy to operate, the cheats are also varied. After all, everyone has grasped the key points and created their own. Things like "108 Tricks of Licking Dogs" and "Self-cultivation of Green Tea" and Shen Yuqing's "36 Strategies to Get Rich Overnight" are not particularly unusual.

After the self-created secret book is completed, the game planner will sell it at a unified price, and the ranking will be selected according to the number of book IDs purchased. In order to increase sales, his sub-accounts naturally each got a copy. At the end of the event, he achieved sixth place. This result is not low or high, but fortunately the top ten have the same fashion rewards. After all, the world of martial arts is noisy, and everyone pays more attention to the skills and weapons in the rewards, and only a few prefer clothes.

Bandits who are being robbed more and more often: Is no one speaking up for me?

The boy who was rescued from the river finally woke up. His injuries were not serious, but the wound had started to become infected after he had been soaking in the river for an unknown amount of time. He now needs to rest, otherwise it will easily leave hidden dangers.

Seeing the vigilance in the eyes of the young man who walked out of the room turn into surprise, and looking at his excited look, Shen Yuqing was worried that the other party would take advantage of him.

Just as Shen Yuqing was still thinking about how to support him, the young man walked up to Jiang Chichen in two or three steps and shouted excitedly, "Benefactor!"

Shen Yuqing: ???

Jiang Chichen: ???

"It was the shopkeeper who rescued you from the river, not me."

Although Jiang Chichen didn't know why the boy thought he saved him, seeing that he seemed like he would catch up with him at any time, he took a step back calmly.

The young man was obviously startled, and his cheeks instantly turned red, as if he was regretting his impulsiveness, but his burning gaze towards Jiang Chichen did not diminish.

"No...I...thank you...cough cough cough cough."

Looking at the young man stuttering and seeming to be choked by his own saliva due to his anxiety, Shen Yuqing handed the drink he had prepared to him.

"Take your time. There's no rush."

Perhaps he was not used to being treated so kindly, the boy's expression was a little unnatural, but he still took the cup. He lowered his head and took a small sip like a puppy trying to eat for the first time. But after feeling the taste in his mouth, the boy's eyes lit up instantly, and he drank the rest in a short while.

To all the people who have been poisoned by the drinks prepared by Shen Yuqing in the past few days: !!!

Recalling the shivering sweet taste, Jiang Chichen looked at the boy with a more serious look in his eyes.

"Thank you, shopkeeper, for saving my life." The boy said in a low voice.

Perhaps it was because the inn's guests looked at him too strangely, the boy tightened his grip on the cup a little. The sweetness in his mouth had not yet dissipated, but he seemed to realize that his rustic behavior of drinking the cup in one gulp was too rude, so the sweetness became a little bitter.

"Good boy, do you know Xiao Jiang?" Shen Yuqing pointed at Jiang Chichen who was standing beside her.

The other party drank the drink he made in one gulp. This pleasing behavior made Shen Yuqing more confident. It turned out that those people did not know how to appreciate the drink.

Feeling the shopkeeper still treating him gently and offering him a glass of sweet water, the young man's originally uneasy heart actually calmed down gradually. In fact, he didn't know the name of his benefactor, but the shock he got that day turned his life upside down, so after hearing the shopkeeper's words, he nodded immediately.

"Don't be impatient. Speak slowly."

"Yeah." Yuxing held the cup in her hand and said slowly, "I don't know whether I was kidnapped or abandoned. Anyway, since I can remember, I have lived in Black Crow. Ah, you probably don't know what Black Crow is. Black Crow is a human trafficking organization. Anyway, it's not too much to say that it's a heinous crime."

"My name is Elm Star. It sounds nice, right? I chose it myself. Elm trees are sweet. At night, I won't be afraid as long as I count the stars. Black Crow will pick out a group of people to send away every few months. Sometimes those who are pretty or disobedient will disappear quietly. I have a flexible mind and I am not a natural at learning skills, so I am in charge of the old, weak, sick and disabled people in Black Crow who go out to beg. Of course, if I don't beg for enough money, my punishment will be doubled. It's not that no one has thought about escaping, but those who escape will be sent back the next day. The lucky ones will be disabled and have their hands and feet chopped off, while the unlucky ones will only have a cold corpse."

"I originally thought that my life would be like this. I might be beaten to death one day just because I didn't have enough money to beg. There are too many accidents in this world. Alcohol makes them more brutal. When whipping me, they just said that my unharmed appearance would not arouse sympathy from others and I was not suitable for begging. They whipped me to help me. I was powerless to resist. I didn't expect that when I was desperate, the benefactor would appear." Yuxing said this and looked at Jiang Chichen with gratitude. Everyone present could see the tears flashing in his eyes.

"My benefactor was just like the god who came down from the sky as people on the street said, defeating the evil spirits and saving the world. Black Crow became vulnerable in the hands of my benefactor. Unfortunately, my injuries were too severe and I passed out soon after. When I woke up, my companions had already moved me to a safe place. They smiled at me with a light in their eyes that I had not seen for a long time and told me that we were free. I have always wanted to say thank you to my benefactor, but I didn't expect that I would really see him again."

Yuxing could no longer hold back his tears. Looking at the face that was exactly the same as the one in his memory, he bent down, knelt down and kowtowed heavily, "Thank you for saving my life."

Jiang Chichen pursed his lips lightly and said coldly: "I didn't save you, I just took revenge."

Yu Xingsi was not frightened by Jiang Chichen's sudden cold voice. He raised his head and said seriously, "No matter what the reason is, I only know that I escaped from that dark place because of you, my benefactor.

Shen Yuqing recalled the first time she saw Jiang Chichen in a black suit that was nearly soaked with blood. The blood on his clothes had already solidified, but it happened to flow again on a rainy night. Although his great revenge was achieved, it left more space in his heart. It was precisely because of this that Jiang Chichen, who didn't know where to go, was kept in the inn by him with just a few words.

"Get up first. You are still injured. Since you have successfully escaped from the Black Crow, why are you now..." Shen Yuqing asked after helping Yuxing up.

"I don't know why. My companions and I stayed far away from the Black Crow base. When I was unconscious, they also stole a few boxes from the Black Crow warehouse. Therefore, we had enough silver to support our lives. Since they all had some physical defects, I was afraid of attracting other people's attention, so I went out to buy food every time. But on my way to buy food one time, I found that I was being followed. I couldn't get rid of them, and it was even more impossible to find my companions and put them in danger. Therefore, I could only lead them to a place farther away from my companions. Maybe they noticed my intention and began to stop restraining. They forced me to the edge of a cliff and fell down when I resisted. I originally thought that I would die like this, but I didn't expect that I would not only survive but also meet my benefactor."

What Yuxing said didn't sound like a lie, but it was too unbelievable that Zhou suddenly appeared and followed him and forced him to fall off the cliff.

"Ding-a-ling..."

The crisp sound of the silver bell attracted the attention of everyone present. They saw that Shen Yuqing had a golden bracelet in her hand. There was a hollow bead in the mouth of the beast head on the bracelet. The sound just now was the ringing of the bell inside the bead.

"Is this a pair?" Shen Yuqing looked at Yuxing while playing with the bracelet in her hand.

Yuxing subconsciously touched his waist and found that something was missing. He did not take any other action but began to answer Shen Yuqing's questions.

"yes."

"You went to the pawnshop." Shen Yuqing's tone was no longer inquiring.

"How did the shopkeeper know that?"

Yuxing looked at Shen Yuqing in surprise. Among the boxes that his companions brought back that day, there was very little silver. Most of them were jade and jewelry. In order to exchange them for silver to buy food, he could only pawn some things at the pawnshop.

"Do you know what this beast is?" Shen Yuqing did not answer the other party's question, but asked back.

After hearing what Shen Yuqing said, several people began to carefully observe the beast shape on the bracelet. After seeing the beast shape clearly, the expressions of several people changed to some extent.

Yuxing noticed the changes in the expressions of several people. He looked at the bracelet in Shen Yuqing's hand with some confusion, as if he had no idea what was going on.

"Although it's just an animal head, if you look carefully, it shouldn't be hard to tell it's a Qilin." Shen Yuqing said slowly, "I remember that since the establishment of Beiyou Kingdom, only the royal family can wear the Qilin pattern."

Yuxing's eyes widened, he never thought that this small bracelet was actually related to the royal family. Growing up in Black Crow, he had never seen a Qilin and did not know about such a vital matter.

Shen Yuqing seemed to see the shock in Yuxing's eyes. He continued to ask, "This bracelet is not yours, right?"

Yuxing nodded immediately and quickly replied, "I found it in Black Crow's warehouse."

really......

Shen Yuqing once again confirmed his guess.
