The girl tugged at the pouch twice, but found that Lu Chen's grip was exceptionally firm, and she couldn't pull it back. After her expression changed, the gentleness and carefulness on her face suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a kind of annoyance.
With a snort, her other hand suddenly raised, and a paper bag actually flew out from her sleeve, smashing towards Lu Chen's face.
Lu Chen reached out to catch it, and casually grabbed it with his hand, then nodded and let go.
The girl took a step back, and first hid the small bag in her bosom, then looked up and down at Lu Chen, coldly snorted, and said, "I can't tell, you actually know such despicable methods."
Lu Chen laughed, and said, "I used to rely on this to make a living." As he said that, his gaze fell on the girl's exceptionally beautiful face, and he frowned, saying, "Little girl, since you have such a beautiful appearance, why can't you do anything? Do you really have to do this? Don't blame me for not warning you, these despicable people are not good. With your beautiful face, if you aren't careful, I'm afraid you'll be eaten alive. "
"Oh …" The girl didn't look old, only about ten years old, but at this moment, after removing her disguise, her body suddenly had an additional mature aura. Her young face revealed a disdainful look, and she looked at Lu Chen, saying, "So, you are still a good person?"
Lu Chen said, "I can't say that I'm a good person, but it's not bad to remind you, what do you think?"
"Cheh!" The girl sneered, and said, "You're just saying it casually. Less nonsense, do you have anything else? If not, I'm leaving! "
This swindler was actually so self-righteous, as if not stealing from Lu Chen, but Lu Chen's fault.
Lu Chen also couldn't help but laugh, but first, this girl was really too young, and second, her face was already very beautiful at such a young age, it really made people unable to harden their hearts to do anything. He immediately waved his hand, and said, "You can leave, anyway, next time you're caught, I won't be so polite."
"This broken shop, I'm not just passing by, even if you pay me money, I won't come again!" The girl angrily shouted, then turned around and walked out of the door.
The Black Dog next to her wagged its tail and came over, jumping enthusiastically beside the girl.
The girl looked at the black dog, and especially saw the lame Atsu's hind legs. She was first startled, but then her eyes became slightly soft, and she reached out her hand to touch the head of the Atsu, and said, "This dog is much cuter than your master."
The Atsu tilted its head, and stuck out its tongue, and looked affectionate. Suddenly, Lu Chen from behind, and said, "Atsu! That's a bad guy, he wants to steal our things. "
The Atsu didn't seem to react for a moment, and blankly looked back at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen sternly said, "Be fierce to her! Bite her! "
Ah-Tu jumped up, as if he had suddenly come to his senses. Immediately, the hair on his neck stood up, and he let out a low growl, baring his fangs at the young girl. He looked like a hungry wolf, ready to pounce and bite someone in the next moment.
"Ah!" The girl was shocked, and suddenly jumped away as if she was electrocuted. She quickly ran out of the door, and then cursed at the shop, "A house full of monsters, bad people, and stupid dogs!"
"Woof woof woof woof …"
As the Atsu roared, it suddenly rushed out. The girl screamed and ran away. Her speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, she ran out of the alley.
The Atsu chased a step, but was stopped by Lu Chen from behind, and then turned back bitterly. But then it seemed to be happy again, and quite proud. It circled around Lu Chen a few times, and kept barking, as if it wanted to take credit.
Lu Chen sighed, looked at it, squatted down, and grabbed the head of the Atsu in front of his eyes, pulled its ears, and scratched the dog's fur. After looking left and right, he frowned and said, "Strange, I remember that snow wolves and black jackals are intelligent and cunning monsters, why do you always look stupid …"
"Woof woof, woof woof …" The Atsu stuck out half of its tongue and licked Lu Chen, and looked very happy.
…
In the evening, Old Ma came back.
As soon as he entered the house, he pulled Lu Chen to close the door and went to the backyard. Then he said with a smile, "It's finally done."
Lu Chen nodded and said, "That's good. When do we go up the mountain?"
Old Ma said, "In three days. A few days ago, the Kunlun Party just held the annual Immortal Appraisal Meeting, and they accepted a new batch of disciples. Recently, it's the time for those who have no chance to officially join the sect to display their supernatural powers. You're not conspicuous at all among them. "
Lu Chen looked at him, and said with a smile, "What do you mean by displaying their supernatural powers?"
Old Ma laughed, and said in a low voice, "On the surface, the Kunlun Party wants to accept so many disciples, but in fact, there are a lot of people who want to squeeze their own children into the sect. Don't tell me you don't know about this."
Lu Chen shrugged and said, "From what you said, there are quite a lot of disciples like me who sneak into the sect in a roundabout way."
Old Ma said with a smile, "Of course. The Immortal Appraisal Meeting has accepted five hundred people, and they can at least squeeze another two or three hundred in."
"Damn!" Lu Chen was shocked, and said, "There are so many!"
Old Ma snorted, and said, "The more they accept, the more spirit stones they can collect. This business is better than anything else!"
Lu Chen said with emotion, "You're right!"
…
At night, two people and a dog sat in the small courtyard again. Old Ma took a sip of wine, and said to Lu Chen with a frown, "You let that little girl go just like that?"
Lu Chen said helplessly, "What else can I do? I can't really detain her, can I?"
Old Ma thought for a while, and said, "At least you should ask about her identity, background, and name, right?"
Lu Chen shook his head, and said, "It's useless to ask. It's all fake."
Old Ma clicked his tongue, and his eyes suddenly became a little strange. He looked at Lu Chen, and said, "Speaking of which, why didn't I notice that you have this trick before? I didn't see you learn it from that person."
Lu Chen smiled, picked up a cup of wine, and lightly said, "That was before I met him. I was muddling around in this city, trying to survive. Aside from picking up trash, I also learned how to steal and swindle people."
Old Ma was stunned, and looked at Lu Chen for a long time without saying anything. After a long time, he said in a low voice, "It's not easy to be a lowly person. You were so young back then. Did you suffer a lot?"
"Yes."
Listening to Lu Chen's extremely simple answer, Old Ma didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, he laughed dryly and changed the topic, and said, "Haha, that little girl is really unlucky. She happened to pass by here and wanted to do some business, but she actually met an expert. She must have been half dead with anger …"
"No." Lu Chen suddenly interrupted Old Ma.
Old Ma was startled, and said, "What's wrong?"
Lu Chen smiled, and then he gazed at the cold and dark night sky in the distance. After that, he took a sip of wine and said, "All those years ago, when I did all these things that harmed people, I'd always checked and calculated carefully, and there was no such thing as a 'coincidence'."
"As for whether she happened to pass by, I don't know."
