My Way

Chapter 6 Roast Duck
When Ling Wuyuan and others stepped down from the stage one after another.

Pei Zhizong asked the old man who was still packing his things with a normal expression:
"How are the kids this time?"

The old man immediately reported to him truthfully in a low voice:

"Master, the children this time are pretty good. Several of them have shown obvious changes. I think they are all good talents..."

After noticing that Ling Wuyuan was among the people reported by the old man, Pei Zhizong was immediately satisfied.

The character and maturity displayed by Ling Wuyuan, coupled with his clean background as a beggar, make him a good candidate for training.

If you add a very good talent for cultivation...

That can create the effect of 1+1>2.

It is not impossible for him to become one of the mainstays of the family in the future.

So, I think there will be no problem if I test it a few more times.

Then it would be a good idea to give it to the next head of the family as an assistant and confidant.

In a very short period of time.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Pei Zhizong's mind.

And asked him to make some general arrangements for Ling Wuyuan's future.

However, he did not show any of this, nor did he say that he was one of the future helpers he had chosen for his juniors. He just said to the people around him with a normal look:

"Did you hear all those kids I just listed?"

"Since they have good talents, then you can go to the backstage and ask them if they are willing to join the Pei family."

"Give them three days to think..."

The other party immediately accepted the order.

"Yes."

I didn't feel there was anything wrong at all.

During the entire process, Pei Zhizong never thought about whether Ling Wuyuan might refuse.

Because he could clearly see the reluctance in the other party's heart.

For a beggar who is unwilling to sink, no matter how small the chance is, it is still a chance...

Therefore, Pei Zhizong understood that Ling Wuyuan, as a beggar who had no one to rely on and had difficulty surviving, would definitely join the Pei family.

Next, he planned to wait for Ling Wuyuan to adapt to the family for a period of time and the various rules within the family before transferring him to the younger generation of the family.

After all, no matter how good the uncut jade is, it needs to be polished.

The steward in the family who specializes in training new servants can help him give the other person a rough training.
-
A few minutes later.

Backstage location.

"This is a token that our Pei family uses to recruit servants. As qualified personnel, if you are willing to join our Pei family, you can come and report within three days. At that time, not only can you get better training and have the opportunity to practice advanced martial arts, but your family can also receive some care from the Pei family. For example, your family can find a job in the Pei family's industry..."

The speaker was a middle-aged man wearing black clothes and looking quite capable.

After introducing himself and explaining his purpose, he also said something to Ling Wuyuan, who was more concerned about him:
"Little guy, it's not easy to wander around alone. Now that you have this good opportunity, it would be better for you to take the opportunity to join our Pei family..."

The reason why he said this to Ling Wuyuan was not because of Pei Zhizong's instruction, but was simply the other party's own idea.

As a guy who was once alone and helpless.

The other party knew very well how difficult it was for a little beggar like Ling Wuyuan to survive.

now.

Looking at Ling Wuyuan's pitiful and miserable appearance with tattered clothes and dirty body.

What he said above was also inspired by his feelings.

Done.

Without waiting for Ling Wuyuan to answer.

The other party, who felt that he had done his best by saying a few more words, immediately spoke to everyone:

"You should register your name and family background with me first, to prevent someone from pretending to be you and joining our Pei family with a token..."

Looking at this scene.

After thinking about it.

Ling Wuyuan could only let out a sigh of relief and stepped forward decisively to register his information.

[Name: Ling Wuyuan].

【Gender: Male】. 【Age: 10 years old】.

[Family situation: no family, no relatives or friends, no education, currently working as a professional beggar, good at catching mice and birds to fill his stomach, occasionally he also eats insects and weeds].

Among them, the age column is filled in randomly.

Ling Wuyuan himself didn't know how old he was.

Overall, the message is very simple, yet full of tragedy.

At least Ling Wuyuan himself felt it was tragic.

Although never said it out loud.

Because no one would listen even if I said it.

But he was really miserable...
-
A few hours later.

It was getting dark, with only a hint of sunset glow on the horizon.

Inside Blackrock City, in a dilapidated temple that was extremely damaged and had leaky walls on all sides.

Although I don’t know what time period it is now.

But Ling Wuyuan calculated the current time and it should be close to eight o'clock in the evening.

At this moment.

He had just started a fire in the dilapidated temple.

A faint heat accompanied by a dim flame was continuously released from the fire in front of him.

beside him.

In addition to some dry firewood and branches he picked up, there was also a ball of something wrapped in oil paper.

Vaguely.

You can smell a bit of meat from it.

That is a roast duck.

He spent most of his savings to buy the roast duck.

Ling Wuyuan bought this thing mainly to celebrate the fact that his hard days were finally coming to an end...

how to say?

Although the process was extremely simplified, he still wanted to celebrate?
Perhaps things can be understood this way.

The only small problem was that when he was buying the roast duck, the shopkeeper saw that he was a little beggar, and after choosing for a long time, he deliberately picked out the smallest and thinnest roast duck for him. In fact, if there hadn't been other people around who saw Ling Wuyuan giving the money, Ling Wuyuan felt that the other party would probably confiscate his money and then accuse him of not paying or something.

By then.

Not only will Ling Wuyuan not get the roast duck, he will probably also be severely beaten.

but.

All of that was actually within his expectations.

After all, the world has basically always been so cruel to him since his previous life.

Therefore, when buying roast duck, he would pay special attention to the time period and deliberately choose to go when there are the largest number of customers, so as to avoid the greatest risk.

but.

That being said.

Recalling those situations, Ling Wuyuan couldn't help but reveal a lot of anger in his eyes.

finally.

After being angry for a while.

He chose to give up his impotent rage.

Let your eyes follow the roof of the dilapidated temple that leaks light, air and rain to the sky outside, then take two deep breaths in silence and adjust your mood.

Ling Wuyuan understood that now, facing these losses, he had no other choice but to endure it.

"But... it will be soon... I will have my own strength and confidence..."

Think of this.

He clenched his fists hard.
