Chapter 58: Laurus Kaitch
A small meteor's momentum woke him up, and the first thing he thought of wasn't that astonishing momentum going out, but rather the debris of a house he saw. With his rich experience, he naturally knew why this happened. Looking at the still intact door, the old man couldn't help but break into a cold sweat, while also secretly rejoicing in his heart that he had woken up in time.
If that door is shattered by its own momentum, someone outside will definitely see the situation inside. According to "their" power, it won't take long for "them" to know that they broke the seal and opened it. At that time, they will definitely send people over to eliminate themselves. With their current strength, which has just been unsealed halfway, they cannot protect themselves, so what they need to do now is hide!
The old man, who had been startled out of his wits and was drenched in cold sweat, calmed down his excited emotions and then came to the front of Xiaoliu Xing and Xiaochun Tian. To their astonishment, he suddenly knelt down in front of them and kowtowed with his entire body on the ground. This is the highest courtesy that humans use to express respect! It's only used when ordinary people worship their gods.
With his own strength, he expresses his respect for Xiao Liuxing in this way. If outsiders see it, they will be extremely shocked! Treating a person as a god-like figure to worship, this world has never heard of it before!
The old man indeed regarded Xiaoliuxing as a god and worshipped him, although it was Xiaochuntian who saved him. Many years ago, the old man had stopped believing in gods and vowed not to worship them again. Now, Xiaoliuxing not only eliminated the deadly poison on his body but also cured his physical ailments, most importantly, he unsealed the seal on his own body!
In this world, only two people know how powerful their seal is. The entire world knows that there are only two people who can help him break the seal, one of whom is an enemy and the other he cannot see. On the day he was sealed, he also knew that his chances of recovering his powers were almost zero. However, he did not dare to die because he had a reason for not being able to die, so he persisted in living, even though he knew that by the time he died, there might not be a miracle, but he still persisted!
Yesterday afternoon, when his poison relapsed again, he felt that he was about to die, so after suddenly getting better, he would think that he was going to die soon, and feel so desperate! Now Xiaoliu Xing has taken away his two biggest worries, and it's no longer a dream for him to recover to his peak state, equivalent to giving him a second life!
So the old man's heartfelt thanks to Little Meteor, he who no longer believed in gods would use the rituals of worship on Little Meteor. He had just recovered a bit of his strength and didn't know that his meridians had been strengthened, or else he would be even more excited.
"If I don't die after settling my own affairs, then I will stay by your side forever." The old man made this silent decision in his heart after crawling, and he didn't know that it was because of this decision that he later became a true "god"!
Facing the old man's sudden action, Xiaoliuxing originally had the ability to make him get up, but when he saw that sincere expression, he gave up and also stopped Xiaochuntian. For such a strong person, if you don't let him express his gratitude, it will leave a shadow in his heart, making him feel like he owes you all the time. If you let him bow afterwards, he will feel much better in his heart. The stronger one is, the higher the requirement for his heart nature!
So let him kowtow to me instead of stopping him, and if it weren't for being saved by myself, he would have been a dead man poisoned to death now, and it's no problem for him to kowtow to me.
Indeed, just as Little Meteor said, the old man's spirit and appearance were much stronger after bowing to Little Meteor. "Master, Laborius. Kaito thanks you for saving his life," the old man stood up with his left hand on his chest, speaking in beast language. "Laborius, don't call me master, rescuing you was just a small matter, don't mind it," Little Meteor said calmly to the old man, which was also the first time he spoke to him.
This is still due to his good conscience, knowing the true gratitude for saving him. As for Xiaoliu's words, Laolis was a bit puzzled, as a slave who was bought, what should he call his master? Although his strength has recovered by half and now has the power of around Holy Rank, it is still hard to see the strength of the two young masters in front of him! It's hard to imagine what realm they are in now. With these two strong men saving him again, Laolis was willing to call them "master" for the first time.
"Master, then how should I address you?" Old Lai Si asked Xiao Liu Xing in confusion. "Huh?" Xiao Liu Xing was taken aback by Lai Si's words, "Yes, what should he call himself indeed?" Xiao Liu Xing thought to himself. If he called himself Xiao Liu Xing, it would sound too familiar, and they weren't that close yet. Calling him Young Master felt awkward, "Call me Young Master, my name is Fu Liu Xing, and my sister's name is Chun Tian." Xiao Liu Xing said after some thought.
Although it was strange that Little Meteor and Little Spring were called such strange names, Laurie still respectfully said yes. "Young master, since you and the young lady seem to be unable to speak human language, would you like me to teach you? Once you learn, everything about life here will become much more convenient." Laurie thought of Little Meteor's and Little Spring's "identities" and suddenly had an idea, then said to Little Meteor and Little Spring.
But he wasn't stupid enough to directly ask about Xiaoliu Xing's identity. Don't say what shouldn't be said, don't ask what shouldn't be asked, this is the first and most important principle of surviving outside!
Originally, Xiaoliu Xing was still thinking about how to tell this matter to Luolis, but he didn't expect him to take the initiative to say it out. This also saved himself a lot of trouble. It's also Xiaoliu Xing's lack of experience, if he were a bit more mature, he would naturally hear that Luolis had completely excluded them from the group of humans.
"Not just language, but also writing," Little Meteor said, following Laurice's words. "Alright, young master, shall we start now?" Laurice asked. Little Meteor thought for a moment and felt that there was nothing else to do, so he nodded in agreement. Little Meteor did not intend to ask Laurice why he had been poisoned or why he had been made a slave.
This is personal privacy, if he doesn't say it, Xiaoliuxing also has no interest in it. Anyway, saving him was just because of admiration for his perseverance and incidentally to exercise Xiaochuntian's practical ability. Being able to learn human language is already quite good, so Xiaoliuxing thought that after they both learned, he would remove the ring from his neck and set him free. Of course, before setting him free, he still needs to completely remove his seal, this is a promise made to him, definitely has to be done.
Although Luo Ya City is one of the largest and most luxurious cities on the mainland, there are still many ordinary people living inside. The northern gate of Luo Ya City is exactly where the famous civilian slum is located, gathering a large number of civilians who have wandered from other places or were originally poor people in Luo Ya City. They basically have no power and mainly rely on doing odd jobs or physical labor to barely make a living, but most people are struggling to survive from one meal to the next.
The lord of the castle would not care about these things, but he would give them some clothes every year before winter to show his benevolence and gain a good reputation for himself. Although the lord's motives were not good, those unwanted clothes still allowed many people who could not afford clothes here to barely get through the winter.
People with a slightly better status in the city would not come to this place, because it's a mixed bag of people, all sorts are here, and the environment is particularly poor, there's simply no fun to be had. So this place has become a real "commoner's den".
When Xiaoliu and Xiaochuntian arrived, they saw that everyone here was wearing tattered clothes and hurrying to and fro. The houses were all made of wood, which could only block out the sunlight but not the wind or rain. Moreover, the wood looked like it had been there for many years. Inside or beside these houses were old people and children. Furthermore, a foul smell permeated the air here.
The people here seem to have no feeling at all, but they just gave the newly arrived Xiaoliu Xing and Xiaochun Tian a good scolding. Of course, this also includes Laolius who followed behind them.
It's been three days since Laolis started teaching the two children human language, and because Little Meteor and Little Spring had a photographic memory since they were very young, now that they are in their yuanling period, this ability has become even stronger. As a result, learning human language and writing is really like making rapid progress, which scared Laolis badly.
Laurice estimated that if things continued at this rate, it wouldn't take a month for him to have nothing left to teach. It was truly crazy, and he had no idea what kind of breed his two little masters were. This was what Laurice thought in his heart.
Learning a language can't just be about learning, that's definitely not efficient. So Little Meteor brings Laboris with him every day and then he and Little Spring wander around the streets together, turning wandering into learning, which is much more effective than in a tavern, and also gets to practice listening for free! Killing two birds with one stone. That's how Little Meteor and Little Spring ended up here. And that's when this scene appeared.
Standing at the entrance of the slum, looking at the dilapidated and humid environment inside, and then glancing at the bright and luxurious places next to it; looking at the old people and children wearing tattered clothes and being skinny, and then looking at those who are dressed in finery, strolling on the street. Little Meteor felt a lump in his chest, wanting to cry but unable to.
He let out a deep breath, Xiao Liuxing knew that every world would have such people. Now he couldn't completely solve their problems, but if there was an opportunity in the future, he would definitely do it, not for anything else, just because he used to be one of them! Holding Xia Chun Tian's hand and walking slowly inside, Xiao Liuxing thought about letting Luolis district buy some clothes later. He had just received a payment, so he still had some money left.
Sincerely recommend, collect...
