Chapter 513 - 513 Meeting the Old Beggar Again
Late at night, Lu Benwei lay in bed to pass the time in boredom.
With Lucifer’s Bloodline, he could absorb energy in the night to make up for his mental exhaustion.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
In the dead of night, there was a knock on the door. Lu Benwei instinctively raised his guard. He did not know anyone in Ha City, nor did he order takeout.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
Someone knocked on the door again. The other party seemed to have chosen this room.
‘The eight great families?’ Lu Benwei thought to himself.
However, Ha City was in the northernmost part of the Dragon Kingdom. Among the great eight families, only two or three families had some arrangements. The Zhu family and the Qi family were not included.
‘Could it be the Yan family?’ Lu Benwei thought.
At this moment, his soul was damaged, and his strength was not even one-tenth of his peak. If he could avoid a battle, he would do his best.
Since the other party did not break in, Lu Benwei still had to treat him with respect. When he opened the door, a black shadow slipped in.
After glancing at Lu Benwei, he walked straight in, covered himself with the blanket, and fell asleep.
Looking at the bamboo cane that was half covered in mud on the ground, Lu Benwei blinked crazily.
Then, Lu Benwei walked to the bed in his slippers and kicked the lump of flesh on the bed.
“Old b*stard, get up!”
“Ouch!”
The old beggar screamed and hid under the blanket. “What are you doing? Shut up and go to sleep.”
Lu Benwei’s eyes immediately widened. “No, how can I sleep like this?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the old beggar moved his body under the blanket and curled up into a ball.
“No. Answer my question before you go to sleep.”
Lu Benwei kicked his butt.
The old beggar lifted the blanket impatiently and said, “I came by teleportation array. I asked the little beggars in Ha City to find you. It took me half a day to find you.”
Lu Benwei was stunned.
Obviously, the old beggar’s answer was the question he wanted to ask.
After thinking carefully for a while, Lu Benwei kicked him again. “Then what’s wrong with your face?”
Only then did the old beggar reveal his head. His face was bruised, and half of his face was swollen. It was very comical.
“You saw it when I came in.” The old beggar opened his mouth slightly in surprise.
“Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have recognized you at first.”
As Lu Benwei spoke, he picked up the bamboo cane on the ground.
He took him to the bathroom to wash off the mud and placed him at the door.
“Tell me the truth!”
Lu Benwei raised his leg and kicked the old beggar’s butt again.
The old beggar leaned against the head of the bed. “I was bitten by a dog.”
Lu Benwei was amused. “And then you accidentally fell and hit your face?”
“Young man, you’re so boring!”
The old beggar shook his head and looked at Lu Benwei with disdain. Then, he sat up from the bed, put on his slippers, and looked around the room.
“I’m hungry. Do you have anything to eat?” The old beggar touched his stomach and smacked his lips.
“You’re occupying my bed and you still want me to take care of your meals?”
Lu Benwei rolled his eyes, speechless by the old beggar’s shamelessness.
“There’s leftover roast chicken. Do you want it?”
The old beggar shook his head. “Ha City’s roasted chicken isn’t as delicious as Shen City’s.”
With that, he picked up a piece of chicken and put it into his mouth. His other hand was not idle either. He stuffed it into his mouth with all his might, unwilling to even spit out the bones.
Seeing that there was still half a can of beer left on the table, he did not mind Lu Benwei’s saliva and took a big gulp.
Lu Benwei frowned as he watched. How long had this old beggar been hungry? Why was he wolfing down the food like this?
“Is it enough for you? Shall I order more takeout?”
The old beggar nodded like he was pounding garlic. He said in a muffled voice, “Just order whatever you want. Just remember to give me a bottle of beer.”
“Alright!”
Lu Benwei was never careless when it came to money. He ordered a few takeaways with a good reputation.
“It’s indeed a blessing to be with my eldest grandson!”
The old beggar looked at the sumptuous dishes on the table and was so excited that he drooled.
“F*ck you. I’m not your grandson.”
The old beggar ignored Lu Benwei and focused on eating and drinking. Lu Benwei also drank a few glasses and started chatting.
When discussing the old beggar’s background, he would always be fooled by the old beggar at the critical moment.
...
From the scattered information, he learned that the old beggar had been traveling around since he was born.
The Beggar’s Sect was quite famous in various cities.
Lu Benwei wanted to pry some confidence in ancient martial arts from him, and then the old beggar began to pretend to be crazy. It was difficult to pry out a single word.
In the Three Mountains Secret Realm, under that destructive situation, the old beggar only suffered bone injuries. In less than two days, he could still jump around unscathed.
They traveled more than a thousand miles from Jinmen City to Ha City.
Moreover, the old beggar had once used his unique secret technique, the Vajra Zen Finger, on the peak of a mountain. Although the result was not satisfactory, the aura was very terrifying.
Lu Benwei guessed that for some reason, the old beggar could not use this move.
No one would believe that the old beggar did not have any martial arts skills!
“Old b*stard, seriously, teach me a few moves!” Lu Benwei took a big gulp of beer and begged.
“Teach you what?”
“Anything is fine. For example, Wave-like Subtle Steps or if you’re from the Beggar’s Sect, you’ll definitely know Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, right? That’s fine too!”
...
Seeing that the old beggar was quite stubborn, Lu Benwei did not dwell on this matter.
“By the way, eldest grandson, why did you come to Ha City?” The old beggar wiped his mouth. It was still greasy.
“To pick herbs,” Lu Benwei said calmly.
“Pick herbs… Let me think” The old beggar smacked his lips and made a smacking sound.
“It’s the Ice Lotus! Right!”
The old beggar shouted and clapped for himself.
Lu Benwei’s pupils constricted, and then the corners of his mouth curled up. “Ice Lotus, I have it.”
“You do?”
The old beggar was shocked and jumped down from the chair.
“Show me!”
Lu Benwei summoned the Ice Lotus from his divine sense. At this moment, a layer of frost spread from Lu Benwei’s feet to the entire room.
“You even have such a supreme treasure. You’re really something, you brat!”
The old beggar held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.
“Eh, that’s not right. Where are your Ice Lotus Seeds?”
