Becoming Stronger After Death: I Keep Seeking Death in the World of the Universe.

Chapter 269 Damn it! Cat man!
"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of sticks hitting flesh continued to be heard in the hotel.

The man who ate the free meal screamed a few times and then fell silent.

I really didn't realize that he was actually such a tough guy.

The shopkeeper glared at the man fiercely, then gave Xu Wang an apologetic smile.

After all, the shopkeeper felt a little embarrassed for disturbing the customers' meals.

When Xu Wang saw the shopkeeper looking at him, he was so scared that he sat up straight, feeling very embarrassed, and looked around busily.

The shopkeeper still had a smile on his face.

Seeing Xu Wang's performance at this moment, his smile suddenly froze.

No way? !

Isn't this another freeloader?!
Only three people came to the opening today.

Among them was a monk begging for alms.

If Xu Wang is also a freeloader, then he might as well just close down his shop!
With doubts in his heart and scrutiny in his eyes, the shopkeeper slowly moved to Xu Wang's side.

When Xu Wang saw that his eyes met the shopkeeper's, he immediately turned his head to look the other way!
Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper also walked over there with a rag in his hand. He pretended to clean the place, but still turned his head to look at Xu Wang.

So Xu Wang yawned exaggeratedly: "Hey! There are spider webs in the sky."

As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the spider webs on the beams.

As if that thing really was that good looking.

"Boom!"

A wooden ladder was placed on the beam of the house. The shopkeeper climbed up in three or two steps, quickly cleaned up the cobwebs, then lowered his head and stared at Xu Wang.

The suspicion in his eyes became more and more certain.

Xu Wang was silent for a while, then he lowered his head and began to count ants.

"Sir, may I be of assistance?"

Just as Xu Wang lowered his head, the shopkeeper's old face appeared from under the bench and looked up at Xu Wang with a forced smile.

"Oh, I'm going!"

The shopkeeper's move frightened Xu Wang so much that he leaned back and fell off the bench.

"Old man, you have practiced it before. You are so elusive."

Xu Wang sat on the ground with a strange expression.

The shopkeeper stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, fiddled with the abacus and said, "Sir, five catties of cooked beef is 80 wen, and a pot of wine is 30 wen. I'll charge you wen. What do you think?"

Xu Wang knew that he couldn't avoid it, so he patted his butt and stood up.

He looked up at the shopkeeper with his chest puffed out and said seriously, "To be honest, I don't have a penny on me."

It is true!!!

My intuition was not wrong!
The shopkeeper suddenly felt a heartache.

This store is really going to fail!

There was also some anger in his eyes when he looked at Xu Wang.

The two cooks on the other side also cast dangerous glances in this direction.

"Give me……"

The shopkeeper pointed at Xu Wang and wanted to have someone beat Xu Wang up and teach him a lesson.

Xu Wang quickly raised his hand: "Wait!"

The shopkeeper said angrily: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Xu Wang pointed to the empty Nuka-Cola bottle next to him and said, "I really don't have any money, but I have a lot of things here that can pay off my debts."

The shopkeeper also noticed the bottle of Nuka-Cola on Xu Wang's desk.

This crystal clear glass bottle is indeed rare.

If he could exchange it for a meal, it wouldn't be a loss.

Thinking of this, the shopkeeper's face looked much better.

He smiled again, looked at Xu Wang and asked, "Is this from the West?"

Xu Wang said casually: "Anyway, it's not from your place."

"Okay, okay, can I take a look?"

The smile on the shopkeeper's face became more sincere.

"up to you."

Xu Wang raised his hand, straightened his clothes, and sat back on the bench.

Watching the shopkeeper carefully rubbing a large number of glass bottles of Nuka-Cola, Xu Wang asked: "How is it? Is this a good deal?"

"Not a loss! Not a loss! Sir, do you really want to use this glass bottle to buy the meal?"

The shopkeeper looked very happy and confirmed it again.

"How can it be!"

Xu Wang curled his lips.

Hearing this, the shopkeeper's face turned bitter again.

Xu Wang pointed at the freeloader lying on the ground like a dead dog on the other side and said, "His meal money should also be included in this."

The shopkeeper was a little surprised that Xu Wang would say this.

But it didn't do him any harm.

Even if it is really counted as the cost of two meals, the shopkeeper still makes some profit.

So he readily agreed, asked the cook to stop beating the customer, and gave Xu Wang a thumbs up: "Young Master, you are so kind and righteous."

Xu Wang didn't really want to be a good person or do good things.

But when the man who ate and ate for free was beaten, Xu Wang saw some hair on his face grow out and then shrink back.

Think about this, this is a world full of demons.

I guess it might be some kind of monster.

So I just want to establish a connection.

Watching the shopkeeper leave, Xu Wang finished the remaining beef in the bowl.

Suddenly, I was inspired and said to myself, "Everywhere is desolate and dilapidated, people are evil, and they can trade with Nuka-Cola. I understand, this is also a wasteland."

After saying that, since Xu Wang had eaten and drunk his fill, he stood up and prepared to leave the tavern.

Just as Xu Wang was about to leave, the shop owner suddenly ran out and put a package in Xu Wang's hand.

Look at Xu Wang’s puzzled look.

The shopkeeper said, "You seem to have no money and you have to travel a long way. These cakes are freshly cooked. You can take them as dry food on your journey.

I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I've taken advantage of your glass bottle."

From the previous conversation between the shop owner and the little monk, it can be seen that this guy is pretty good.

Now it seems that although he is a little greedy, he is indeed a sincere person.

There are really not many people like this in this world.

Xu Wang didn't hesitate to say thank you, then took the package and stuffed it into his waist bag.

The shopkeeper's eyes widened when he saw it, and he almost knelt down to Xu Wang: "God!"

"Don't worship randomly, you haven't become a god yet."

Xu Wang waved his hand, and the motorized Pegasus in the stable drove automatically behind Xu Wang.

"Please stay, benefactor! Please stay, benefactor!"

Xu Wang had just gotten on his bike and was planning to leave Jinshan Village.

The little monk Baiyun also finished his vegetarian noodles and ran out.

Seeing Xu Wang's puzzled look, the young monk Baiyun stood still, clasped his hands together, and bowed slightly to Xu Wang: "I am Baiyun, a monk. I am going down the mountain to gain experience. I wonder if I can go with you, young master, so that we can take care of each other along the way?"

"Your name is Baiyun?"

When Xu Wang heard the name, the first thing he thought of was the Spring Festival Gala sketch, Black Soil and White Clouds.

But he quickly realized that this Baiyun should be the Zen Master Baiyun who appeared in "A Chinese Ghost Story 3".

"A Chinese Ghost Story 3" takes place a hundred years after the second part.

By that time, Bai Yun had already become an accomplished monk with great magical powers and a golden body.

It was far from the time of "A Chinese Ghost Story 3" at this time, and Bai Yun was just a young monk who had just started out, which was normal.

But I didn’t expect that the white clouds also came from Jinshan Temple.

Xu Wang did not refuse. He patted the back seat and said, "Okay, come on in. I have something to ask you."

"Thank you, benefactor." The young monk Baiyun sat on the motorcycle awkwardly, twisting his buttocks twice, feeling very strange.

This was the first time in his life that he had ridden such a strange thing.

However, he usually practiced in the temple, and when he went down the mountain occasionally, he only moved around Jinshan Village and never went to any larger cities farther away.

I guess the rich people out there probably travel by this kind of bicycle.

The young monk was worried that Xu Wang would look down on him for being ignorant, so he could only pretend to be normal to hide his inner embarrassment and nervousness.

After Baiyun sat down, Xu Wang started the motorcycle and headed south.

He didn't ride very fast this time.

The main thing is to wait for the freeloader behind him who is eating and drinking freely.

If he was really a monster, he would have revealed himself after Xu Wang and the others left the village and reached a deserted place.

Xu Wang is quite interested in those monsters and demons.

I wanted to see what kind of monster that guy was, as he actually ran into a human village to eat a free meal.

Even if he was beaten, he would not fight back.

Sitting on the motorcycle, watching the scenery on both sides recede, Baiyun was full of surprise, and his little face was a little red with excitement.

But he had not forgotten the important matter and looked back secretly.

Just then, he saw a dark shadow flash by and immediately narrowed his eyes.

Considering that Xu Wang was not an ordinary person, the young monk Bai Yun moved closer to Xu Wang and whispered, "Donor."

Xu Wang narcissistically corrected him: "Call me Young Master Xu."

Bai Yun looked at Xu Wang, who was wearing a scholar's coat, with doubt, but he changed his words obediently: "Xu Shaoxia, there is a demon behind you. The man who ate a free meal in the restaurant should be a demon."

Xu Wang nodded: "I know."

Bai Yun suddenly understood: "I see, I understand. No wonder Young Master Xu wanted to pay for his meal."

He went there to beg for alms because he sensed a slight evil aura in the tavern.

The little monk Baiyun also came to exorcise demons.

So he asked admiringly, "Young Master Xu, are you planning to lure the monster out of the village and then subdue it to prevent it from harming the villagers?"

Xu Wang denied it decisively: "Oh, no, I'm just curious about what kind of monster it is and want to take a look. As for whether to take action, it depends on it itself."

Bai Yun was now very confused: "Why? Since we know it is a monster, of course we should directly eradicate it to prevent it from harming innocent people."

Xu Wang said lazily, "Although it ate a free meal, it was beaten by the store owner. It shouldn't be punished with death, right? There are good monsters and bad people.

We can't just kill people without asking questions based on their race."

"But……"

Bai Yun felt that what Xu Wang said made sense, but the teachings he received in the temple were that no matter what kind of demons and monsters they were, they should all be killed and suppressed.

For a moment, my mind was a little stuck.

At this time, Xu Wang, who was riding a bicycle in front, spoke again: "Just follow your heart. No one can guarantee that they will not make mistakes in judgment. If you see someone doing something bad, just do it. I won't stop you anyway.

I have killed many people myself, and in the eyes of many wastelanders, I am a villain."

Bai Yun was a little confused.

Then he sighed deeply, clasped his hands together, and chanted softly.

What Master and Senior Brother said was indeed right.

Only by going down the mountain can you train your mind.

This Young Master Xu seems to be a man of great wisdom.

Following him might be of better help in cultivating your mind in this worldly affairs.

Baiyun stopped talking.

Xu Wang asked curiously, "I heard that you are from Jinshan Temple. Do you know Fahai?"

Fahai has a great reputation.

Countless demons died at his hands.

It's not surprising that Xu Wang knew Fahai and the little monk Baiyun.

Speaking of his senior brother, he seemed a little proud: "Of course I know him, he is my senior brother!"

"Your senior brother..."

Xu Wang was immediately happy. He didn’t expect that there really was a Fahai. This was going to be fun!

Well known.

When mentioning Fahai, one will inevitably think of the Legend of the White Snake.

Xu Wang wanted to know whether the story of the Legend of the White Snake had already happened, so he asked, "Has your Jinshan Temple ever been flooded? Has Fahai ever caught a thousand-year-old white snake? Is he a young man or an old man with a white beard?

Does he have a dragon tattooed on his back?"

Although Xu Wang's questions were a bit strange, the little monk Baiyun still answered them all obediently.

Jinshan Temple has never been flooded.

Fahai has captured many snake spirits, but he has never captured a thousand-year-old white snake spirit.

As for the image of Fahai.

He is a handsome young man.

He did have a golden dragon tattooed on his back.

The young monk Baiyun also gave a special explanation.

He said that it was not an ordinary tattoo and it was not tattooed on.

That was the magical power to subdue dragons that Fahai cultivated.

It is the method taught personally by the Dragon Arhat who descended from the seat of Tathagata in the West.

Xu Wang understood after hearing this: "Okay, I get it. It seems to be the most handsome Fahai from the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon. This is getting more and more fun. No wonder you were taught like this."

Little monk Baiyun was confused again.

Xu Wang always said something he couldn't understand.

Soon, the mobile Pegasus carried the two out of the village and came to an uninhabited forest.

Just then, the leaves on both sides shook, making a rustling sound.

Bai Yun immediately held the rosary in his hand and said seriously: "It's coming!"

As he spoke, Bai Yun had already jumped off the motorcycle, landed on the ground with his feet, and scanned the surroundings, guarding against possible sneak attacks.

Xu Wang also stopped his motorcycle.

But he did not get off the car, but waited for the other party to come out with interest.

Didn’t make Xu Wang wait any longer.

As soon as Xu Wang parked the car, a black shadow somersaulted in front of him.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the man who was beaten for eating and dashing in the restaurant before.

But this time, this man no longer hid his demon features. Hair grew on his face, he had sharp teeth, and his eyes were golden and bright.

There is also a pair of erect triangular pointed ears on the head.

"I am the tiger demon Yinhu! Thank you for saving me just now! I will remember your kindness of giving me a meal! I see that you two are not ordinary people, so I will show you my true face!"

The goblin who called himself Yinhu said this and patted his chest vigorously in a heroic manner.

When they met for the first time, he dared to expose his identity as a demon.

It is indeed domineering and generous, giving people a very good feeling.

But Xu Wang has always been a man who speaks his mind. Looking at the guy in front of him, he immediately exclaimed: "Fuck! Cat man! And it's an orange cat!"

The little monk Baiyun beside him also questioned: "How dare you, a little cat demon, take the title of Liu Ding Liu Jia at will? You are really brave!"

The cat pretending to be a tiger suddenly couldn't hold it anymore.

He roared in grief and anger: "Meow--!"

After roaring, he realized something was wrong, and quickly covered his mouth with his claws, then immediately said, "What's the point of lying to you? I said I'm a tiger, so I am a tiger! It's you who are nagging, not like real men!
That's enough! Anyway, I've conveyed my message. I've remembered your scent and will definitely repay you in the future. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Having said that, Yin Mao turned around, jumped, and disappeared.

This gave Xu Wang an inexplicable strong sense of déjà vu.

After feeding the wild cats on the roadside.

The wild cat would try to get close to you, but would then leave you mercilessly.

It will only appear again when it is hungry.

Xu Wang curled his lips immediately: "You still say you are not a cat."
