[Name: Levi Mojito (Zhong Shenxiu)]
[Bartending: Getting Started]
[Tianxiu Point: 188 (2%)]
[The Gate of Ten Thousand Doors: To be Opened]
…
In the birch forest.
There was a bloody man lying next to Zhong Shenxiu. His mind brought up the attribute bar, and his face glowed with a strange light.
"The loss of Tianxiu points was due to the previous treatment. Bartending was actually recognized as a skill in the attribute column. Although it is just an entry-level skill, Levi Mojito obviously spent a lot of effort practicing it."
"This world...should have extraordinary power, but why do I feel that the vitality of heaven and earth is different from before..."
He closed his eyes for a long time, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face.
"Perhaps, the vitality of heaven and earth in this world is expressed in another form, such as magic and magic? This also means that it is impossible to refine the evil spirit and restore magical powers?"
To be honest, even if he can recover, Zhong Shenxiu is not willing to waste Tianxiu points.
He travels across the world to harvest, not to consume.
Based on previous experiences, if you first actively integrate into the world and experience the different systems and paths of another world, you may gain unexpected gains.
"Martial arts magical powers... forget it, this should be enough, but it costs too much. It's too late to add more when the danger is real."
At this moment, Zhong Shenxiu heard the groan coming from Scarface next to him.
Although this guy had no vital injuries, he was hit by a bullet and had a big hole in his body. He was simply bandaged and then moved so far. He was already bleeding and looked like he was about to die.
In the hazy moonlight, Zhong Shenxiu's eyes were blurred, as if he saw a translucent soul that was about to leave Scarface's body.
That's his soul!
'Huh? What is so special about my body that I can see the soul with the naked eye? ’
Zhong Shenxiu was a little surprised, and immediately put the guess on himself: "Is it still the influence of [Herder]'s ability? Why didn't it exist in the two previous worlds? Is it because this world is more suitable for this kind of power? And... [Herder] It’s not about magical talismans and physical abilities, it’s more about the soul, so it can be transferred with the true spirit?”
He had a feeling that in this world, if Tianxiu Points were used to unlock martial arts magical powers and [Herder] abilities, the latter would definitely consume less.
'I don't even need to use the Tianxiu system. Following this inspiration and practicing a lot, I can find some superpowers. Just like in other worlds, I can get my own martial arts back through martial arts training. It is the most economical. practice. ’
But at this time, Zhong Shenxiu couldn't control that much anymore.
He saw that Scarface's soul was almost leaving his body, his body began to stiffen, and he exhaled his last breath. He immediately held out the idea of experimenting and stretched out his hand to push gently.
Scarface's soul was expressionless, but was pushed and curled back into his body.
Scarface, who was lying down, coughed and his whole body twitched.
Zhong Shenxiu's eyes moved, and he immediately started to deal with the wound again and bandage it carefully.
Half an hour later, Scarface opened his eyes: "Levi...you saved me?"
This title is a bit wrong.
Zhong Shenxiu felt a little weird, thinking about the ability of the [Herder], but he did not herd Scarface's soul.
'Perhaps... it just left a little impact during the contact, just like a deep psychological suggestion. ’
'With this hint, coupled with the life-saving grace, it's not a big problem to gain a die-hard loyalist. ’
This is also the reason why Zhong Shenxiu wants to give Scarface a hand.
"It's me, are you okay?"
Zhong Shenxiu turned around and smiled brightly.
His body is quite handsome, with short brown hair, blue eyes, angular facial features, and a high nose, giving him a model-like temperament.
"Before...I almost felt like I was dead..."
The scarred face had chapped lips and murmured vaguely: "But at the most critical moment, I seemed to see you, and I came back to life... I think everything that happened should be meaningful..."
‘Is this guy hypnotizing himself? This is hopeless...'
Zhong Shenxiu rolled his eyes secretly, thought for a while and said, "You'd better find a place to hide, and I'll find you some medicine and food..."
"I know there's a hunter's cabin nearby and I rested there while I was chopping down trees!"
Scarface smiled.
…
The city of Byron is located west of Baltimore Harbor and takes half a day by horse-drawn carriage.
Zhong Shenxiu walked for most of the night, plus another morning, and finally entered the urban area near noon. He walked through a few streets and came to a slum area.
Low-rise houses, dilapidated streets, and dirty and smelly sewers.
A few dirty-looking little boys wearing peaked caps and gray jackets squatted on the street corner and glanced at Zhong Shenxiu. After realizing that they were acquaintances, they all showed regretful expressions.
They are all golden fingers on this street, making a living by stealing, and they all have gang backgrounds behind them.
If you are a stranger and reveal that you are rich, you should be careful with your wallet.
These golden fingers are not only pickpockets. When necessary, the knives in their hands can also cut through other things.
Zhong Shenxiu secretly recalled Levi's memory and came to a shack.
This section is full of such buildings. The row houses are divided into small and closed rooms, which are rented to poor people and craftsmen who cannot afford the high rents in other areas.
Of course, the living conditions are very poor and there is no separate bathroom. The two younger sisters at home, Carmela and Jennifer, have always complained about this.
Zhong Shenxiu walked for a while and stopped in front of a door.
Before he could figure out where to take out the key, the door of the house opened, revealing the messy floor, tables, chairs and wooden stools at the back, and matchboxes piled up like a hill.
Two blond girls, one thirteen or fourteen years old, and the other younger, who seemed to be only eleven years old, were working hard to add stickers to the matchbox.
Many children from slums find jobs within their means, from delivering newspapers, delivering milk, starching clothes, gluing matchboxes, to gang informants, pickpockets... They do everything except go to school.
The person who opened the door for Zhong Shenxiu was a boy who looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old. His profile was somewhat similar to Levi's, but more immature.
This is Levi's brother, Jones, and the other two sisters, the older one is called Carmela and the younger one is Jennifer.
"you are late……"
Jones complained and looked at Zhong Shenxiu's empty hands: "The bread and butter at home are gone..."
Levi had previously boasted to his younger siblings that he had found a night job with a well-paid salary, and promised to bring bread and milk in the morning.
It was obvious that he had missed the date forever.
"Something bad happened, and to put it simply... I screwed up."
Zhong Shenxiu turned the pockets of his pants inside out, making a habitual helpless move that he remembered from Levi.
Jones sighed and seemed to confirm this the first time he saw his brother: "There is not much money left at home now. I want to go out to work. I am already sixteen years old. Even if I work as a coolie on the dock, I will not be able to do anything." If I can earn ten cents a day... I want to make money, I want to be a rich man!"
"Before that, I'm afraid you have to change your name first..."
Zhong Shenxiu shrugged his shoulders and told a joke that only he could understand: "How can you get rich when you are poor?"
