Chapter 959
Chapter 959
Zhang Fei, Zhang Xiaofei, and Zhang Xiaofei's mother had been wandering around the area all day. At this moment, they were walking among a group of refugees with their heads held high.
Wherever the three of them went, the refugees would nod and bow to them. In response, the three of them only snorted coldly.
Although the three of them were disliked, they knew that Zhang Xiaofei had saved the lives of powerful cultivators, so no one dared to offend them.
"Hey, newcomers."
Zhang Fei walked up to an outsider. It was a family of three. They had just arrived, and there was a man with a woman and a child who was not even one year old.
At this moment, the child was still wearing thin clothes. His little face was red from the cold, and his big black eyes were staring at Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei walked over and hugged the woman and child. The man who was hugging the three of them quickly stood up with a respectful expression.
"Do you know the rules for coming here to seek shelter?" Zhang Fei asked coldly.
"Rules?" The man's eyes were filled with confusion.
"Hmph, do you think you came here for free?" Zhang Fei lowered his voice and said to the man. At the same time, he stretched out his hand toward the man.
The man naturally understood what he meant. He quickly reached into his bag and rummaged through it. Only then did he find a piece of silver. It was about one tael.
"That's all." Zhang Fei took the silver and stared at the man.
The man nodded with a sad face and said, "My child was sick a while ago, so I spent quite a bit on the treatment."
"Hmph, consider yourself lucky." Zhang Fei coldly snorted. Then, he fiercely stared at the woman's face and chest before leaving.
Zhang Fei had done this kind of thing countless times every day, so he was very familiar with it. Even Zhang Xiaofei and his mother had become veterans.
Zi Chen didn't pay attention to what was happening here, so he naturally didn't know. As for Old Zhang and Bing 'er, they were busy thinking of ways to help everyone, so they naturally didn't know either.
As for the refugees, because they knew that Zhang Xiaofei was the savior of powerful cultivators, they didn't dare to speak carelessly.
"It's time to eat." Bing 'er's voice rang out. It was mealtime again.
There was a big pot with fragrant meat soup boiling in it. However, compared to before, the meat soup was a lot thinner.
Every time it was mealtime, Bing 'er would look around. At this moment, she noticed that Zhang Fei's family seemed a bit sneaky.
"Uncle Zhang, what are you doing?" Bing 'er asked.
Zhang Fei put away the silver without a trace and said with a smile, "Nothing, nothing. Is it time for dinner?"
"Yes." Bing 'er did not care about this matter.
"Haha, it's time to eat. Uncle Zhang, let's see what good food we made today." Zhang Fei squeezed through the crowd and walked over.
It was a big pot with meat soup simmering in it. Zhang Fei leaned over the pot and took a deep breath. He sighed, "It smells so good. Little Fei, call your mother. Come, it's time to eat."
Zhang Xiao Fei brought three big bowls over. Zhang Xiao Fei handed one to Bing'er and said with a smile, "Bing'er, give Uncle Zhang a bowl and two extra pieces of meat."
The other refugees did not dare to say anything. However, when the villagers saw Zhang Fei's back, they spat on the ground.
This family was really tasteless. They clearly had winter food at home, but they didn't eat it at home. All day long, they followed everyone here to eat and drink. Moreover, during the last rescue, many people who were rescued found that some of their money had disappeared.
When Bing 'er was distributing the meat soup, she had a smile on her face. However, when she went back, her smile turned into a worried look.
Because the stored food was running out, they had to find a way to get some. But now, there were battles everywhere. It was uncertain whether the market would still be around. It was unrealistic to buy food.
Bing 'er looked at Zi Chen and pouted. She muttered, "Stingy guy. You clearly have the ability to help everyone, but you're just watching from the sidelines."
Zi Chen closed his eyes and pretended not to hear anything.
"Hmph." She snorted at Zi Chen again and walked back to her room.
In the room, Bing 'er was thinking of a way to get food. She lay on the bed and muttered, "Should I go out and hunt?"
She grabbed the sleeping white fox and woke it up, saying, "Little White, let's go out to hunt wild beasts tomorrow, okay?"
The white fox had been sleeping a lot recently. It would only wake up when it was hungry. Moreover, its body had grown a lot and it was more agile.
The white fox was still a little confused when it was suddenly woken up.
Bing 'er grabbed its two front legs and lifted it up. She pouted and said, "Zi Chen is such a stingy guy. He doesn't want to help everyone. Why don't we go and help everyone? Let me tell you, I'm very powerful now. I'm already at the fifth level of true energy. I've secretly tested it and I'm very strong. I can definitely hunt some wild beasts."
"Squeak squeak." The white fox called out twice. No one knew what it meant.
Even if Zi Chen was here, he might not be able to understand. However, Bing 'er's eyes lit up. She said in surprise, "What? You agree? That's great. We'll leave early tomorrow morning. I'm going to cultivate tonight. Oh right, Little White, do you know what cultivation is?"
"Squeak squeak."
"Ah, you don't know. It's okay. I'll teach you when I'm powerful."
The sky darkened. Another day had passed. Bing 'er and Little White chatted for a while in the room, then fell into a deep sleep.
Zi Chen got up and walked towards his room. Zhang Feng looked at Zi Chen's back and said, "You're a good person. You're also one."
It was not clear whether this sentence was praise or criticism.
Zi Chen did not return to his room. Instead, he walked towards Bing 'er's room. At this moment, Bing' er was sleeping with the white fox in her arms.
Because Zi Chen was a cultivator, the entire stone house was not cold. Bing 'er's arm was still exposed as she slept soundly.
Zi Chen sat beside Bing 'er's bed. He extended two fingers and pressed on her arm. Then, his fingers glowed. A gentle golden energy flowed through his fingers and into her arm. Then, it entered Bing' er's body.
This energy flowed through Bing 'er's meridians. It used an extremely gentle method to transform her body and remove the impurities in her body.
Bing'er, who didn't have an outstanding aptitude, was able to reach the fifth level of True Qi Realm in a short period of time just by cultivating in her sleep. This was closely related to Zi Chen clearing her meridians every night and refining her True Qi.
Helping Bing 'er break through was just following the rules. Zi Chen did not spoil things by excessive enthusiasm. After a few circulations, he got up and covered Bing' er with a blanket. Looking at Bing 'er who was sleeping soundly, Zi Chen sighed, "If only I had someone like her to help me when I was cultivating."
Thinking back to the time when Zi Chen wanted to enter the inner sect of the Nimbus Martial Ancestor, he worked very hard. In the end, he was schemed against by his brothers and almost died. At that time, he was extremely difficult. He was not like Bing 'er, who could reach True Qi Level Six in her sleep. If she was in the Nimbus Martial Ancestor, she would be an inner sect disciple.
Walking back to his room, the devil ape stuck its head out. Zi Chen said, "Tomorrow, Bing 'er is going to hunt wild beasts. Follow and protect her to prevent any accidents."
Even though the devil ape was still a miniature version, it nodded when it heard Zi Chen's words.
Bing 'er woke up before the sun rose. When she found that she had reached True Qi Level Six, her face was immediately filled with excitement and surprise, "I actually broke through. This is really great. I have great confidence in hunting wild beasts."
Afterwards, she dragged the extremely unwilling white fox and tiptoed towards Zi Chen's room. She pushed open the door to Zi Chen's room and saw Zi Chen sitting cross-legged in cultivation. She wrinkled her nose at Zi Chen and stuck out her tongue. She did not disturb him and quietly left after closing the door.
Just as she and the white fox walked out of the room, the devil ape turned into a black light and followed them.
"Hehe, today I will definitely hunt a lot of wild beasts."
Bing 'er proudly raised the ring in her hand. This was given to her by the voice in her dreams. It was a storage ring that could store things.
Currently, there were some female household items in the ring. The space inside the ring was also very large. Bing 'er wanted to hunt wild beasts because there was not enough food and also because she wanted to feel how it felt to store other things in the ring.
Bing 'er headed straight for the forest in the distance. The white fox followed behind her with light steps. At the back, there was also a black light following behind.
Not long after arriving at the forest, Bing 'er found a wild beast. It was a huge wild boar that could barely be considered a vicious beast. Two fangs protruded from its mouth, like curved blades.
This was a big guy. Bing 'er was thinking about how many people could eat such a wild boar. At this moment, the wild boar attacked Bing' er.
The wild boar's strength was very strong. As it ran, there was a gust of wind, which really scared Bing 'er.
She waved her palm and used her True Qi to block. The two sides exchanged blows and collided.
She was at True Qi Level Six. The wild boar was at most a level one vicious beast, which was equivalent to a human at True Qi Level One. However, the one who was pushed back this time was Bing 'er.
The wild boar's body swayed, and then it charged towards Bing 'er again. The two curved fangs flashed with a cold light.
Bing 'er was pushed back again, but she was not injured. She usually only cultivated in her dreams. In real life, she almost never used her True Qi. Now that she was fighting, she was obviously panicking.
At this moment, she finally understood how difficult it was to hunt wild beasts. During this time, the white fox came to help. It was also cultivating, so its strength was not weak. Although it was not very skilled in using its True Qi, it was much stronger than Bing 'er.
The man and the beast, who were obviously stronger than the wild boar, finally managed to kill the wild boar after attacking it for half an hour.
The wild boar fell to the ground, its face pale. Bing 'er, who had used up a lot of her True Qi, immediately had an excited look on her face.
She walked towards the wild boar, and with a flash of light in her hand, the wild boar disappeared. In the next moment, she felt that there was one more thing in the Spiritual Ring.
"Wow, this is too magical." Bing 'er said in amazement.
However, killing a wild boar was obviously not enough. At this moment, Bing 'er heard a loud roar from afar.
"There are still wild beasts. Whitey, quickly go and kill them."
Bing 'er was so excited that she did not realize that the True Qi in her body had become very little. Moreover, according to her True Qi usage, even if she joined forces with Whitey, they would not be able to kill another wild beast.
However, Bing 'er was so excited that she did not think about this at all.
She quickly came to the place where the roar came from, and then she saw a huge black bear. This was an Ice Bear, a Level 0 Vicious Beast. Bing 'er could not fight against it.
Fortunately, this Vicious Beast was not alive, but dead. Apparently, it had just died.
Seeing that there was no one around, Bing 'er shouted twice, asking who the prey was. However, she found that no one answered, and there were no other wild beasts around. She simply thought that this was an Ice Bear that had just been frozen to death.
Therefore, she put away the Ice Bear and decided to return.
She brought Whitey back. Seeing the light shield from afar, her face was filled with excitement, and then she entered the light shield.
