Chapter Thirty-Four: Brother is just a legend...
In a certain place in the Forbidden City of China, Chen Yi was suddenly spat out by a rift in space-time. "The rifts of Ba Yunzi are really convenient, if it were modern times, even taking a plane would take several hours... but where is this place?"
Chen Yi looked at several eunuchs around him who were staring in shock and said, "Hmph! I know... Ba Yunzi, you must have done it on purpose!!"
"There are monsters! There are assassins! Protect the Emperor!!" Several small eunuchs suddenly scattered, pulling out duck-like voices and shouting loudly, the entire Forbidden City immediately became lively.
Damn it, that old hag is a monster... Looking at the distant fires lighting up one after another, let's retreat first...
Chen Yi started jumping continuously on the rooftop, and the gathered army also discovered Chen Yi.
"Release arrows! Release arrows!" An officer loudly gave orders.
Suddenly, a hail of arrows shot towards Chen Yi. No joke, if he got hit by these, his life would be over.
With both hands grasping an arrow that flew in, Chen Yi's playful heart was stirred up, and with a series of clashing sounds, he deflected the arrows. The officer below looked on in shock.
"Is this still human? It can't be... Could he really be the legendary monster?" As soon as he thought of this, the officer slapped himself. How could such a thing as a monster possibly exist?
Looking at the group of soldiers behind him who were unable to remain calm, the officer hastily shouted: "Everyone, don't panic! No matter how formidable he is, he's still just one person. Continue firing... Cough cough cough!"
Whoa! Whoa!
Two arrows brushed against the officer's crotch and stuck in the ground, the officer only felt a chill in his crotch, and suddenly swallowed back what he was about to shout, coughing loudly instead.
Chen Yi continued to jump outwards, trying to see if he could make the ghost hand return to normal. As a result, without the main god's interference, the ghost hand obediently transformed into something similar to his original arm, but there was still a layer of pale red color that couldn't be dispelled from Chen Yi's ghost hand.
But being able to change back is enough, for some minor flaws, Chen Yi can still tolerate them, as long as they don't stare at Chen Yi's arm all the time, generally speaking, it's hard to notice the abnormality on Chen Yi's arm. As for hair and eyes, Chen Yi tried many times before thoroughly giving up, feeling helpless.
From time to time passing by the place where some palace maids lived, seeing those palace maids who were hastily dressing, Chen Yi immediately covered his eyes and almost fell over...
I saw online that the palace maids of the Qing dynasty were quite ugly (those who don't believe can go check online, but in my guess, it should be that the empress was afraid that the palace maids would compete for favor, so she intentionally chose a group of ugly ones as palace maids), but I didn't expect...
Covering his eyes, which were almost blinded by the bright light of the Terra Cotta Dog's gaze, Chen Yi didn't dare to linger any longer. He quickly arrived at the foot of the city wall and looked up at the high wall. With a burst of energy, Chen Yi jumped up from where he was standing and leaped over the high city wall, landing on the other side.
A group of soldiers in a state of shock stared blankly as Zhen Yi jumped out of the city wall and left calmly.
"My goodness! A monster!" The soldiers below didn't see clearly what it was, but the soldiers on the city wall saw it clearly - long white hair and red eyes. What else could it be if not a monster?
With a calm and collected demeanor, Chen Yi ignored the commotion behind him in the Forbidden City and began to wander around. In this era, people with special abilities had almost disappeared, and even if there were still some who existed, no one knew where they were hiding. As long as he disguised himself slightly, he didn't have to worry about being discovered, for example... pretending to be blind.
……
……
As a result, there was a rumor among the common people that a young and strange blind man would often appear in different places, wandering around. Originally, it would have been fine if that's all there was to it, but in the rumors, this blind man would often help the common people.
When encountering bandits and robbers, he would proactively go forward alone to fight them, astonishing the common people. This blind man won every time, emerging unscathed.
When a disaster or famine occurs, the blind man would appear and bring a large amount of financial aid. As for those who had evil intentions? The common people found that anyone who had tried to take advantage of this blind man never appeared again.
Like this, Chen Yi's deeds were passed on from one person to another, and his abilities were increasingly exaggerated. Chen Yi was also talked about more and more mysteriously, until a few years later, when a village that had been rescued by Chen Yi saw him passing through again, they found that Chen Yi's face had not changed at all, and the rumors were once again exaggerated. For a time, Chen Yi almost became known as a god...
Chen Yi's experience was like this, after finding a piece of black cloth to cover his eyes, Chen Yi began his journey, and with his vision, even covering his eyes couldn't stop him from seeing clearly.
While traveling, Chen Yi also discovered the problem of 'having MONEY to travel all over the world, without MONEY it's difficult to take a step'. So he started trying to change his route, looking for places with many bandits and robbers, planning to rob the rich and help the poor, turning black into black...
When Chen Yi went to find the mountain bandits' den, he encountered the mountain bandits who were robbing. Chen Yi would always go forward and give them a severe education, telling them that robbery was wrong. As for tuition, it was a bit expensive - life and property would be taken away.
After discovering that he had looted too much, Chen Yit found that his inventory was bloated. Although items of the same type only occupied one slot in the inventory, there were still too many. Not wanting to go find those bandits again, Chen Yit began to focus on traveling once more.
When encountering a village that is experiencing famine or natural disasters, provide some assistance. If the village is plagued by an epidemic, bring a bucket of clean water and mix in a few bottles of antidote medicine. Have each person drink a bowlful; it will cure those who are ill and prevent illness for those who are not.
Like this, Chen Yi relied on walking to travel everywhere, until several years later when Chen Yi had enough and started rushing back. Unintentionally, he heard rumors about himself, after which Chen Yi thought, "When did I become so great?"
Isn't it just robbing a few (Chen Yi can't remember how many) bandit dens, and helping a few (Chen Yi still can't remember how many) villages? Why did it spread like this?
Fortunately, due to the rumors being false, apart from those who had actually seen Chen Yi, not many people knew what he truly looked like, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Chen Yi, who had been running around China for almost ten years, was also tired and returned to the starting point. Chen Yi looked at the high walls of the Forbidden City in the distance and decided not to cause trouble for the imperial palace...
Afterwards, Chen Yi bought a shop in a not-so-prosperous and not-so-deserted street district in Beijing City. He opened a grocery store and put on shelves some strange items he had collected during his many years of travel. After that, Chen Yi started to stay at home all day without going out.
Wow! The golden child shines everywhere, and soon the Cenyi general store attracted the attention of the old people in the neighborhood. The things sold here are all rare items, even if they can't be bought, some idle old people will come to Cenyi's store to take a look and play with some objects.
Chen Yi's original intention for opening the store was just to alleviate boredom, and he went along with these ordinary people. As long as they didn't steal things or intentionally damage them, that was fine. Those who committed offenses were immediately broken off by Chen Yi without hesitation, their third leg severed and thrown out. There were also some people who thought Chen Yi was blind (pretending) and easy to bully, wanting to secretly take away a few items, but after being brutally beaten again, they were thrown out by Chen Yi.
For a time, many ordinary people suspected that Chen Yi was pretending to be blind. Later, seeing that Chen Yi had never pulled down the black cloth covering his eyes, they regarded him as an extraordinary person.
Chen Yi sometimes puts some primary potions on sale, and they are immediately sold out. These potions have no effect on Chen Yi, but for ordinary people, they are incredibly effective. When you're tired, drink a mouthful, and you'll be refreshed instantly. If you're injured, drink a mouthful, and you'll recover instantly. They're more valuable than gold, unfortunately, there's just not enough of them. This is what the villagers have been thinking for the past four weeks.
As for Yiyunzi, she often comes to Chenyit's store with or without reason, and occasionally takes something from Chenyit on the sly. However, as a result, one time when Yiyunzi brought Youyouzi to Chenyit's store, they were discovered by the surrounding villagers, and the rumor of Chenyit having two wives of calamity level immediately spread like wildfire.
However, at that time, Chen Yi guessed that this must be Ba Yunzi who was not in a good mood and wanted to find trouble for herself. Otherwise, why would she suddenly bring Youyouzi to the store when there were many people inside, entering from the back door of the store without any hesitation, and hugging one of Chen Yi's arms...
The locals had already gotten used to Chen Yi's weird white hair, so when he showed up with two more women with unusual hair colors, they weren't too surprised. Birds of a feather flock together, after all.
As a result, Chen Yi's grocery store became even more famous, and every day there were streams of customers (to see the beauty), while Chen Yi also faced the envy, jealousy and hatred in the eyes of countless young men.
How can a mere blind man possess two peerless beauties as his wives... the inner voice of countless young bachelors.
With a life of leisure, Chen Yi couldn't calm down. Ba Yunzi would appear from time to time, sometimes with Youyouzi together. At the same time, she would maliciously hug Chen Yi's arm and sell things together. Although the two soft lumps on Ba Yunzi's chest made Chen Yi feel comfortable, what about the gaze of a group of old men who seemed to want to devour him?
Ba Yunzi, who had lost all sense of shame, was harboring a sinister idea about Chen Yi. In a crowded store, Ba Yunzi and Youyouzi stood beside Chen Yi, putting him under immense pressure, when suddenly the back door of the store opened...
A blonde beauty with a white soft hat exposed half of her body (the lower part transformed into a tail...) and then shrunk back, Chen Yi was Spartan at that time, this...this isn't making people even more misunderstand.
Sure, here is the translation:
As expected, at that time a group of old men in the store suddenly turned red-eyed, damn it, there's another one!!
