Chapter 51: Buying Rice
After the two of them were already quite far, Lin Yun spoke out, "Brother, they’re laughing at us."
"Don’t worry, they won’t be able to do that for long." Lin Xiao waved his hand with confidence. In this world, everyone respected those who were strong. All they needed to do was to train and train again so that no one would be able to look down on them anymore.
"We’re going to be much stronger than them."
"Yes!"
"By the way, do you bring so money?" Lin Xiao checked his pocket. There were more than enough money for them to buy so rice, but he needed to keep so too in case of ergency.
Lin Yun shook his head. "You’re the one who’s holding all the money, Brother."
Lin Xiao: "..." I completely forgot.
Checking the money again, Lin Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that he hadn’t wasted the money that he got from Shopkeeper Wang from the deadly testing back then. He was worrying for a mont that he had wasted the money.
The two of them headed to Shopkeeper Wang’s shop and noticed the old man was sweeping the ground.
"Old Wang, I want to buy so rice," Lin Xiao greeted from a distance.
Shopkeeper Wang raised his head. He arched his eyebrows when he saw Lin Xiao. "You’re here, Little Rascal. I thought that you have already forgotten about ever since you take the hunting squad test."
"Ah? I didn’t pass the test."
"I know, I know, Su Han told the story to everyone."
Lin Xiao’s eyes turned cold, but it quickly turned back to normal. He had learned how to mask his real feelings, though most of the ti, he chose to act according to his heart’s desire without caring for anything.
"The rice, Old Wang."
"Here. 1 silver."
Counting the weight, Lin Xiao nodded in satisfaction. Shopkeeper Wang always gave them the sa amount for 1 silver. It was usually more than enough for two people to eat for 3 months.
The only problem was to bring it back.
Shopkeeper Wang grinned when he saw Lin Xiao’s gaze. "Do you want to borrow a cart again? Just adding 10 coppers are enough."
Lin Xiao rolled his eyes. As he had though, Shopkeeper Wang was truly soone who was greedy for money.
"Not this ti, Old Wang."
Moving to the front, Lin Xiao grabbed the large sack with his right hand and lifted it up. Afterwards, he took the second sack and brought it up with his left hand. In the past, he would never be able to do this, but now he felt that the sack was not that heavy.
Shopkeeper Wang narrowed his eyes when he saw how easy it was for Lin Xiao to lift the sack.
"Are you already halfway to Body Training Rank 7, Lin Xiao?"
"Ah? I think so?" Lin Xiao tilted his head. When he advanced to Body Training rank 6 not long ago, he was also focusing on his bone. That way, he had already started to make his way to enter Body Training Rank 7.
But of course, he still needed to accumulate enough Qi before he could enter the rank. it would still take him weeks or even months if he chose the normal way of absorbing the Qi from the air.
Lin Yun took the third sack, the last one, and lifted it up. It was a bit heavy for him, but he still could bring it.
Once again, Shopkeeper Wang looked at Lin Yun. "Body Training Rank 5?"
"I’ll enter Body Training rank 6 soon," Lin Yun protested.
"But you haven’t entered it yet."
"I’ll train again after reaching ho."
"Yea, yea, yea."
"Brother!"
Lin Xiao laughed. He nodded at Shopkeeper Wang. "Thank you for the rice and that’s the money."
Shopkeeper Wang glanced at the silver that Lin Xiao left behind. His eyes were still watching the two siblings as he rubbed his chin. There was sothing strange about the two siblings recently. In such a short period of ti, they were growing much stronger.
’Is it because Lin Xiao could properly hunt and fill the nutrition they need?’
He had seen Lin Xiao hunting by himself but chose not to interfere. However, he was still not totally sure about Lin Xiao’s capabilities in hunting.
If Lin Xiao had been quite lucky and could provide more than enough food for the two siblings, their condition might have been improving. After all, Qi existed everywhere, including nature and naturally animal’s body.
When they eat animal’s at, their body would also absorb the Qi that was originally inside the at. That way, their training would beco much faster as they grew stronger. This was why many cultivators paid close attention to their diet during the early stage because all kinds of food were important for their growth.
’I must be thinking too much.’
Shopkeeper Wang shook his head and walked back to his store. He had no interest to ddle in the youngsters’ business at all.
Those two might have just been lucky.
...
The two of them returned back to their residence while carrying the three sacks. Considering that they now had Wenren Yu in the house, the rice might run out much faster than their expectation.
"Brother, how did you manage to carry two sacks at the sa ti?" Lin Yun asked.
Lin Xiao tilted his head. "My skin naturally harden and allow to bring greater force in my arms and legs. And as I’m going to reach Body Training Rank 7 soon, I think my bones are getting stronger?"
"But you’re still a long way to go from reaching Body Training rank 7, Brother."
"Well, close enough."
Lin Yun: "..." months are not close, Brother.
