Of course, although he was suffocated by their scolding, he did not resist, because he wanted to take care of the little girl that would become the ruthless empress.
It doesn't matter if he suffers a little loss in this world. Just doing it does not affect him, but he can't let this girl be pitied by others with him around.
In case the other gamers knew that the ruthless empress was this sad because of him when she was a child, he would get canceled
The current situation is that we must find a job in Cloud Rhythm City and let this sister have enough food. As for finding her brother, we can only talk about it later.
With the weak Ye Xianxing on his back along the way, Ye Xiu came to the end of the street. At the corner, it was the slums.
However, this passage is full of weeds. It seems that the people here walked too much and completely implanted their footsteps. From the previous sarcasm of the nobles, it can be concluded that the poor and the wealthy are in complete discord. People in the slums do not come to the wealthy areas, and the wealthy areas will not go to the slums.
The only thing that can still connect them is probably the three words of Cloud Rhythm City, The Cloud Rhythm City Wealth District, and Cloud Rhythm City Slum District...
"The wealthy part of this city can be considered impossible to find a job, and no one will want it, or go to the slums." Ye Xiu paused and immediately entered.
"Brother, when will you take me to my brother?" Ye Xianxing behind him lay on Ye Xiu's shoulder and asked tenderly.
"This world is very big. I'm afraid we can't go to the Splendid Sunlight Dynasty during this lifetime. So we need to do it step by step. First, we need money. If you have money, we can travel through the domain gate and ride on flying beasts." Ye Xiu smiled and said, "At that same time, we can spend more money to obtain news. I believe we can find your brother soon."
"Uh-huh," Ye Xianxing nodded when he heard the words.
Gringling...
On the way, Ye Xiu's stomach began to turn upside down. He hasn't eaten for several days.
Fortunately, with his tenacious will, he finally came to the end of the slums
The rubble of the houses here is very dilapidated, and it is centuries away from the magnificent buildings in the wealthy district.
"Is it to be so miserable?" Ye Xiu had a bitter face.
The worst one is yet to come.
Walking through more than a dozen streets along the way, no one was willing to take him and Ye Xianxing in.
The day had very little time remaining.
He came to a relatively shabby and simple blacksmith's shop, and there were bursts of hot stoves inside.
"Is anyone there?"
Ye Xiu looked inside and shouted.
"Hang on!"
At this time, a middle-aged man was wearing blacksmith clothes with greasy sweat and sour taste, and dirty clothes came out.
"Uncle, I want to be an apprentice! No salary! Just have enough to eat!" Ye Xiu said calmly. His mouth was dry, and he was afraid of being driven away again.
He didn't even want his salary directly. As long as he took care of the food, it could be seen that he was also determined.
"You are quite tall, but you have lost some weight. Can you do it? I'm doing all the heavy work here." Although the middle-aged man had big lips. He was more kind-faced. Looking at Ye Xiu, who was still carrying a little girl on his back, he couldn't bear to say it.
"Of course. Of course, I have been without food for over half a month, resulting in a slight dehydration of my body. When I recover for a day, one day will be fine. My body is still quite strong!" Ye Xiu pleaded, "Uncle, please take me in. There is no problem. My sister hasn't eaten for a long time like me..."
"Brother, I ..." Ye Xianxing, who was eight-and-a-half years old behind him, wanted to say something, but she immediately interrupted by Ye Xiu.
"Don't talk, ssh, children, don't interrupt." Ye Xiu immediately glanced at Ye Xianxing behind him and then looked at the middle-aged man again.
"Your sister is about the same age as my daughter." Looking at the little girl with dry lips, the middle-aged man exhaled a thick smoke coming from his pipe and said, "Okay, I'll give you a half-month internship. If you are qualified, a salary will be handed over."
"Thank you, uncle!" Ye Xiu immediately nodded in surprise, not to mention how excited he was! For the first time in his life, he was so excited and happy!
In the past, Ye Xiu heard the teacher say the word "hope" and described it. He only knew that it was a word, but now he felt its true meaning. It is everywhere and anywhere.
...
The blacksmith who took in Ye Xiu and Xianxing was called Zhang. His workshop is located in the center of the slum, which is also an excellent location, but there is only a middle-aged man in the blacksmith shop to man it.
His name is Zhang San, and his daughter is nine years old. Her name is Zhang Beihai. She is indeed the same age as the ruthless empress Ye Xianxing. They all look like future beauties, but now they are very cute.
When they grow up, these two will most likely shock the world.
After settling down in the blacksmith's shop, although Ye Xiu ate a lot every day, he also worked very hard, he was very eager to obtain Zhang San's knowledge and gave him all the refining skills handed down from his ancestors so that he could understand blacksmithing.
"We are all commoners. Everywhere there is talent. What you mainly need to understand is the first part of blacksmithing. Remember the type of materials, the control of the flames, and the aura fusion behind them? Right now, I cannot do this." Zhang San took a deep breath and continued, "My grandfather's generation lost the following skill of aura fusion."
"Uncle, are any of your ancestors a cultivator?" Ye Xiu opened his mouth in surprise. He had been in the world for so long. This was the first time he found cultivators. If there was a chance, he also wanted to witness it with his own eyes.
"Well, my great-grandfather was a cultivator before. They all cultivated their Sea of Consciousness in their bodies and became living immortals in the eyes of mortals." Zhang San looked at the sky outside very yearningly and immediately shook his head again to look back. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's a pity that my grandfather, my father, and I have not achieved the possibility of cultivating since then, tsk..."
Ye Xiu is a little serious. He has played this game during beta and knows how much effort a cultivator needs to put in everyday to expand their lifespan. The first is to activate the sea of consciousness. Only by activating the sea of consciousness can one be regarded as an actual cultivator.
If one wants to fly to the sky, they must constantly research the wheel of life in their own body, infuse the tao into a bridge, and connect with their sea of consciousness to supply energy to temper their body. Finally, cultivating the last realm of rebirth lets your body become reborn and tempers your body further to reach the next step in cultivation..
However, at present, he is still very busy and doesn't think so much. It's important to fill his stomach.
Time flies.
Soon after staying in this blacksmith's shop for half a year, Ye Xiu even had very solid muscles, and his whole body became no longer loose and fat, looking shiny with more black hair.
In the past, if people considered him a simple, handsome man, now he exudes charm. His muscles are solid but not compact, and his handsome appearance seems to have a little hint of evil charm because of his skin tone.
"Uncle Zhang, is there any immortal sect such as a female sect taking in a male disciple in this city?" One day, Ye Xiu suddenly asked Zhang San.
After living for half a year, he will naturally not be content with the status quo. He knows very well that it is not a long-term plan here, because he has to find her brother for Xianxing.
Even if Ye Xiu was here for a lifetime, Ye Xiu can't earn enough money from blacksmithing as a mortal, so He must find another way out. This way out is to cultivate.
