Chapter 386: Life in the Mortal World
Chapter 386: Life in the Mortal World
Luo Shan followed the direction pointed by the farmer, and along the way, he saw many people from Liujia Village.
When the villagers saw her passing by, they were all stunned, but no one dared to approach her.
After all, Luo San's attire made her look like a lady from a wealthy family. Poor people like them couldn't even avoid her, so how could they dare to provoke her?
After hiking over three mountains and walking for dozens of miles, Luo Shan finally arrived at Xixi Town.
Xixi Town was built on the bank of Yingxi River, with a stone arch bridge in the middle. The town was much more lively than the previous Liujia Village. Luo Shan saw at least three or four large houses in the town.
Luo Shan walked into a small pawnshop and pretended to take out two golden hairpins from his sleeves in exchange for silver from the secular world.
This was something she had prepared in the corpse puppet. After all, now that she had come to the mortal world, it was impossible for her to trade with spirit stones.
The pawnshop owner saw the two gold hairpins and wanted to bargain for them, but when he saw Luo San's extraordinary aura and the spotless white brocade dress, he suppressed his thoughts.
After exchanging the silver, Luo Shan bought a small house in Xixi Town and began to settle down.
Life in Xixi Town was very leisurely. Although the town looked small, it was extremely lively and had everything. Luo Shan even discovered a small brothel.
The life span of a Jindan cultivator is 2,000 years, but Luo Shan's bones are only 500 years old now. Time is plenty for her.
Xixi Town is not big, but it is bustling. Next door to Luoshan lives a poor student who often recites poems and composes essays facing the banyan tree with its branches sticking out in Luoshan's yard.
Today he sang a poem, and the banyan tree sighed. Tomorrow he sang a poem, and the banyan tree sighed. On the third day, Luo San was so depressed that he hired someone to spend a large sum of money to move the tree away.
So, on the fourth day, the scholar who claimed to be a talented man began to recite the Book of Songs.
Luo San: “…”
This is also the mortal world! You need to endure before you can understand the mortal world!
After enduring for only three days, Luo Shan finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Just because she met the self-proclaimed scholar when she went out, it was just a one-time encounter. That night, under the gray wall, a poem "My Fair Lady..."
After chanting only four words, Luo Shan flew over and beat the man up.
The depression in the chest is harmful to spiritual practice and has no benefit at all. This guy deserves a beating.
After the beating, Luo San finally got some peace and quiet.
The scholar family next door originally wanted an explanation from Luo San, but Luo San's fighting power was too high, so they had to give up.
But after this incident, the story of a fierce woman in Tongzi Lane in Xixi Town began to spread.
Luo Shan: This is also a mortal experience...
He wandered around during the day, playing with cats and dogs, and went to brothels and gambling houses at night. Luo Shan's days passed slowly like this.
The days passed slowly, and one day, Luo Shan saw yamen runners wearing officer uniforms coming to Xixi Town.
The entire Xixi Town seemed to be filled with a gloomy atmosphere.
"Another tax increase. The harvest is so bad this year. How are we going to survive?"
"Alas, I heard there is going to be another war. When will it end?"
"..."
Luo Shan sat on a big rock on the street, listening to the sighs of people passing by.
She saw that everyone had a miserable look on their faces, and some even looked deathly.
Luo San lowered his eyes and began to fall into deep thought.
Only by experiencing the worldly life can one gain insights.
After thinking it through, Luo Shan bought some clothes and decided to leave Xixi Town.
The slender figure held a pole with a canvas hung on it in his left hand, and a thick yellowed book in his right hand. He began to slowly leave Xixi Town and head towards the direction where the evil spirit was the strongest.
The closer we got to the border, the more refugees we saw. They were dressed in rags, had pale faces and thin bodies, and there was no light in their eyes.
Just like that, Luo Shan, holding the canvas with the word "life" on it, walked into the sight of the group of refugees.
She was carrying a box on her back and when she saw the group of refugees, she took the initiative to walk over.
Perhaps it was because her attire was too special. She was clearly a female cultivator, and her clothes were unusual, yet she acted like this.
The refugees looked alert, but there was death in their eyes.
Luo Shan glanced at everyone one by one, and after a long time, he walked to an old man with a hunched back.
"Old man, I have a handful of seeds, a pound of grain, and a good medicine. Are you willing to make a deal with me?"
Luo Shan looked at the old man with a calm expression.
The old man raised his eyes to look at Luo Shan and smiled sadly.
"I am penniless and cannot afford what the girl has."
"How could that be?" Luo San smiled and looked at the old man.
"One tear from yours is enough." Luo San said, and took out a set of herbs, a bag of grain, and a handful of seeds from the box at the back.
The moment they saw the food, the refugees' eyes glowed green, like hungry wolves seeing fresh meat.
Some people couldn't hold back any longer and rushed over to grab the items.
Luo Shan took out a sword and held it between the crowd.
"Everyone, I am a friendly person, but if anyone starts a fight first..." As he said this, he raised his hand and threw out the sword. The sword spun in the air and flew back.
Everyone was startled and stepped back at the same time.
The old man took a while to react.
No money, just a tear from him?
How could there be such absurd things in this world?
But now he was almost starving to death, just a tear.
Thinking of this, the old man readily agreed.
"I want that pound of food."
He stared at the pound of grain without blinking.
Luo Shan took out the table and chairs from the storage bag, and then inserted the canvas flag aside.
"it is good."
Luo Shan put the food on the table and asked the old man to sit down.
"Please stretch out your hand and I will feel your pulse."
Although she could know the old man's condition with just a scan with her spiritual sense, Luo Shan couldn't always use spiritual energy to treat him, so she bought medical books and read them along the way. In addition, she was also a doctor in modern times, so she could be a medical practitioner.
With the temptation of that pound of food, the old man let down his guard. After all, he was old, so what was there to be afraid of?
Seeing Luo Shan like this, everyone realized that this girl was a doctor, and the refugees immediately became much more respectful.
As they headed north, Luo San would stop to provide free medical treatment to refugees they met along the way, and became quite famous.
By the time we arrived at the border, it was already the third year, and Luosan's name had become well-known in the Daqing Kingdom.
At the foot of Zhenci Pass, Luo Shan did not enter the city, but directly built a simple shed not far outside the city and hung the canvas on it.
After simply building a few tables, Luo Shan dug a well and started a tea shop outside the city.
Outside the city, the sky was full of dust and soldiers passed by from time to time. Luo San's tea shop was located not far outside the city, so soldiers from the city soon saw it.
However, because of these three years, Luosan has gained some fame in Daqing State, so when some people saw the canvas with the word "生" hanging next to the tea shop, they recognized it.
As a result, many people in the city came to seek medical treatment.
