Chapter 434 Jianghu

Shen Yuntian rents a small courtyard house with a rent of ten cents per day.

There were three households living in the yard, and Shen Yuntian rented the smallest one.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Xu Tianci smelled a musty smell, which made him choke.

"Brother Shen, do you live here?"

The young boy chattered for a long time along the way, and Shen Yuntian only occasionally replied with a sentence or two. This whole journey made him a little curious.

Is it possible that this young master from Xingjiang is so noisy?

Xu Tianci was an average scholar and was not considered a dandy. His only hobby was martial arts.

However, Mrs. Xu was born prematurely when she gave birth to him, and the doctor had carefully warned him not to overwork him.

The Xu family loved their son and were not willing to let him endure hardships, so they simply invited a storyteller to raise him at home when he was a child.

Whenever he wanted to learn martial arts, he would let the storytellers take turns telling him about the so-called martial arts.

This one had his head beheaded, that one had his hand cut off. The better ones had their faces disfigured and then kept their names anonymous. The worse ones were chased by enemies and thrown into the underworld with a sword. Some even more abominable ones had their bodies dug up and thrown away after death. .

After listening to a lot of things over and over again, Xu Tianci seriously stopped thinking about practicing martial arts and just listened to the storyteller vividly talking about the world every day at home.

Although I am scared, I still feel a little longing in my heart.

Now I saw a small vendor who not only had his own rules, but also had scars on his face.

With just one glance, he determined that Shen Yuntian must be the kind of "charlatan" the storyteller mentioned!

Maybe he was a knight wandering around the world, but he was just waiting to avenge his family one day because of a blood feud. Now he was setting up a stall at the night market in Ejiang just to hide his identity from others.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Xu Tianci wished he could become a brother with Shen Yuntian on the spot.

He didn't know any of the young masters from the aristocratic families in Ejiang. All of them either only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun, or they were 100 percent bookworms. There wasn't even one who was highly skilled in martial arts.

Now that he finally found a Jianghu man, of course he couldn't let him go.

If only, if only I could see the true loyalty of Jianghu, that would be great!

Thinking happily in his heart, the young man couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Seeing that he hadn't moved for a long time and was still standing at the door with a silly smile, Shen Yuntian subconsciously twitched his lips, wondering if his plan would still be useful.

He just felt that this young man was dressed in an unusual way. Although he looked a little silly, he might be able to help him find clues about his brother and sister-in-law.

But looking at it now, I'm afraid that my plan won't come true.

"There are only a few things left at home. See if you want them. If so, I'll light the stove."

Shen Yuntian raised his hand. There was a piece of meat weighing four ounces in a large porcelain bowl, and two large steamed buns in the other.

"I want it." Xu Tianci came to his senses and didn't see what he was holding in his hand, so he nodded quickly.

There were three families living in the small courtyard, and the buckets and other things were kept outside the house. The courtyard itself had a musty smell. As he got closer, Xu Tianci felt that his nose was no longer his own.

"Brother Shen, do you live here?"

The young boy poked his head into Shen Yuntian's house, but it was unexpectedly clean inside.

Shen Yuntian was reluctant to spend money to rent a better yard, so he could only try his best to keep the place clean.

"Um."

Shen Yuntian concentrated on lighting the stove and did not want to say more to him.

Seeing that he ignored her, Xu Tianci was not angry. Instead, he walked over with a smile: "Brother Shen, if you don't want my money, then what do you want me to do for you? If you need anything, just tell me, as long as it's me Whatever I can do, I can do!"

The charcoal fire was lit, and there was a subtle crackling sound. After a moment of silence, Shen Yuntian finally spoke.

"I want you to help me find someone."

The light in the room was very dark, with only a kerosene lamp swaying slightly on the table. Shen Yuntian's face was blurred, but Xu Tianci became excited.

He knew it!

Brother Shen must be a Jianghu person!

Maybe the person he asked to help find him was his enemy!

When he thought that he was about to kick the Jianghu, the young man's face flushed with excitement, and he only asked in a hurried tone.

"Brother Shen, who do you want me to help you find? Is it the enemy who killed your father or a fellow disciple? Could it be possible, could it be a traitor in the sect?"

After hearing what he said, Shen Yuntian stopped what he was doing and just looked at him with an expression that looked like he was a fool.

"I want you to help me find my family."

"ah?"

Xu Tianci's expression was stagnant, with disbelief written all over his face.

"Three years ago, I got separated from my family during the famine. It took me three years of searching before I came to Ejiang. I heard some news about them half a month ago, so I stayed in Ejiang.

If Master Xu really wants to help me, I want you to find out about them for me. "

Shen Yuntian returned to his original appearance, just looking down at the fire. Feeling that it was almost done, he put the meat skewers he had just cut and skewered on.

"Then, the injury on your face is..."

He never thought that he would guess wrong. Xu Tianci stammered for a long time and couldn't say a word.

"They were left behind by bandits on their way out of the desert."

His tone was calm, as if he was not talking about his own experience, but asking someone if they had dinner today.

"Bandits?"

Hearing that it was related to bandits, Xu Tianci got excited again.

He knows that bandits are extremely vicious and evil people!

Is it possible that Brother Shen has fought with bandits? Is that why there is such a big scar?

"It happened in previous years."

Shen Yuntian didn't really want to talk about the past.

Those days were extremely difficult, and even recalling them now made him feel a dull pain in the wounds on his face.

Dad, he...

"Brother Shen, just tell me. If, if you tell me, I will ask someone to help you find out the news!"

The young man's eyes were full of curiosity. Shen Yuntian glanced at him and didn't hesitate.

What happened in the past has become the past, and it doesn't matter if you say it now.

Now that we can find my brother and sister-in-law, it's business.

The charcoal fire in the stove was burning red, and the fat and thin meat skewers were grilled until they were sizzling with oil. The famous young master from Ejiang squatted on the ground with a look of surprise on his face.

He never knew that such a thing could happen in this world!

The storyteller at home only said that Jianghu is about loyalty, and all the knights in it are heroes among men, capable of climbing over walls and climbing over walls.

But they never said that someone would sell their son or daughter for a black-faced steamed bun.

In his memory, he had no idea what black-faced steamed buns were.

Even at home, people in the kitchen will use the finest wheat flour mixed with milk and powdered sugar to knead the steamed buns.

Seeing that he was a little confused, Shen Yuntian felt funny and broke off a piece of steamed bun from the bowl.

"This is made of black noodles, but it's thinner than what we ate before. Try it."

After taking the hard piece of steamed bun, Xu Tianci frowned after just one bite.

This thing bites the tongue.

But knowing that the food was precious, he didn't vomit it, he just swallowed it directly with a held breath.
