A Mortal's Story of Cultivation into Immortality

Han Li set out from his hometown and headed southeast, heading straight for Lanzhou.

On the way, he would sometimes partner up with others and walk through the busy urban areas together, and sometimes he would walk alone in the wilderness because he wanted to take a shortcut. Halfway through the journey, there was no major danger. The only accident was when he encountered a few wild wolves with red eyes while sleeping in the wild somewhere, and they ended up being Han Li's dinner.

Along the way, he was full of travels and traveled through two other states before arriving at Lanzhou after a very hard work.

As soon as he entered the territory of Lanzhou, Han Li was greatly surprised by the waterways extending in all directions. You know, the Yuezhou where he was originally located was mostly barren mountains, mostly hills and mountains. Not to mention canals and lakes, there were not many decent rivers, and most of the water depended on wells and streams.

Therefore, Han Li was very interested in the various boats that shuttled on the waterway. Finally, driven by curiosity, he chartered this small boat and tasted the feeling of going down the river for the first time.

As a result, more than ten days later, Han Li arrived at the Jiayuan City mentioned in Doctor Mo's letter and set foot on this inconspicuous dock.

The first thing Han Li saw at this dock was that it was terrible.

The entire pier is made of simple wooden boards. Not only is the place small and crude, but there are rotten baskets and bags piled everywhere in the east and west corners, making it extremely dirty. In the only two bamboo sheds built on the pier, there were dozens of strong men standing in each. The upper bodies of these men were either shirtless or wearing only a short coat, and they all gave off a tough look.

Now these men were all looking at him and Qu Hun without blinking, and some of them even had eager eyes in their eyes.

Han Li was stunned for a moment, but then he smiled slightly.

Before leaving the boat and boarding the dock, the boatman enthusiastically reminded him that there was an unwritten rule at the dock in Jiayuan City. No matter how much items the merchants brought ashore, they had to pay to hire a porter. A coolie helped carry things. If not, you will encounter poor treatment by these coolie porters, and you may even be beaten severely.

When Han Li first arrived here, he had no intention of breaking other people's rules, so he greeted him honestly:

"I want to hire a porter, is there anyone here?"

Sun Ergou had withdrawn his gaze at this time. Through his inspection just now, he had already determined in his mind that the young man who had just got off the boat was probably the young master of a wealthy family, and the giant man must be a somewhat clumsy and strong bodyguard. Many such combinations appear in Jiayuan City every year. They come here to broaden their horizons, spend a little money, and then go back to show off, so there is nothing to worry about.

However, such people also love to slap people in the face and pretend to be fat. They are a good enemy! As long as you give them a few nice compliments, these country bumpkins will usually give you a lot of extra rewards in addition to paying the agreed moving fees. Therefore, it is still a very lucrative business for the individuals who are employed.

However, this time the business was not their turn. Because according to the agreement he and Black Bear made in advance, both parties took turns taking in the business, and no one was allowed to compete. The size of the business was determined by the luck of both parties, and they just took over a deal yesterday, so This time it was up to the people from the black bear across the street to pick him up.

Thinking of this, Sun Ergou glanced across and saw Black Bear whispering a few words to the men around him, and then a man happily ran out of the crowd and rushed towards the young man.

"No, you can't move it alone. It's best to call someone else." Han Li looked at the very strong man in front of him, then at the oversized package on Qu Hun's body, and shook his head gently.

"Young Master, I can carry such a small thing with one hand. I don't need to look for anyone else." The man didn't want anyone else to share his reward. Besides, he didn't think that even if the package was bigger, it wouldn't be worth it. You won't be able to move it unless it's full of rocks.

After saying that, the man walked up to Qu Hun and grabbed the package without any explanation.

Han Li sighed. There were thousands of taels of silver in this package, as well as other miscellaneous things. The weight was really heavy and beyond the reach of ordinary people.

But when he saw how enthusiastic this person was, he had no choice but to secretly ask Qu Hun to hand over the package to this person instead of fighting with him.

Sure enough, as soon as the strong man took the big bag, his expression suddenly changed. He was already red-faced and out of breath after struggling to carry it on his body for a few steps. He had no choice but to put the package down in shame, and went back to call another person.

When Han Li saw that the two men could finally lift the package, he nodded with satisfaction and quickly left the dock and walked along the road towards the city.

Han Li didn't know that due to his inexperience in the world, two pairs of greedy eyes were staring at him, and he was about to get into some trouble that he shouldn't have.

Sun Ergou looked at the young man's retreating figure and finally withdrew his salivating eyes. He suppressed the surprise in his heart and couldn't help but turn his head and look at the black bear opposite. He knew very well that the huge wealth hidden in the package would definitely not be hidden from the other party's eyes.

Sure enough, Black Bear was also looking surprised. After hesitating for a moment, he still winked at Sun Ergou. Sun Ergou immediately understood and walked with him to a nearby garbage dump. In front of such a large sum of money, even if he had the hatred of killing his father and seizing his wife, Sun Ergou would cooperate with him. After all, "people die for money and birds die for food."

"Fifty-fifty split!" Sun Ergou went straight to the point in a low voice.

"Thirty-seven points, this is our business." Black Bear refused unceremoniously.

"Four or six points, no more. You should know that the reason you just mentioned is untenable at all." Sun Ergou said with a sullen face and to the point.

"This..." Black Bear hesitated, obviously still reluctant to give up this benefit.

"Hmph! If you think about it for a while, I'm afraid the other gang members will be eyeing this fat sheep." After snorting, Sun Ergou said coldly.

"Okay! It's settled, let's high-five each other." Black Bear was clearly touched by these words and finally agreed.

"Pa" "Pa" "Pa" After Sun Ergou and Black Bear each spit on their hands, they slapped each other three times and formed a temporary alliance.

"Okay, let's catch up with each other quickly. Don't let this kid run into a crowded place." Sun Ergou urged.

"Hehe! Don't worry. I asked the two men to take them away to Blackwater Alley. I'm going to stop them now." Black Bear suddenly showed a sinister smile that didn't match his appearance.

"This is great, what a plan, brother!" Sun Ergou showed a look of surprise on the surface, but his heart was trembling, and he secretly became more wary of the black bear.
