Comprehensive Martial Arts: Starting the Game in Snow Moon City

Chapter 362 Xiao Se: Money is something outside of our body, but without money you can’t do anything

Sikong Changfeng took the bill and wanted to find Lin Heng to discuss it, but he couldn't find Lin Heng after looking for a long time. Then he learned that Lin Heng had returned to the Sword Sect.

Sikong Changfeng sighed helplessly and flicked his sleeves.

"Why doesn't Lin Heng ever say hello to anyone?"

Sikong Changfeng was a little annoyed. If it was someone else, he could still say a few words, but if it was Lin Heng, Sikong Changfeng believed that even if he said everything, Lin Heng would still do his own thing.

Seeing Sikong Changfeng standing there with the bill in his hand, as if thinking hard about something, Xiao Se stood up and went to meet him.

"Third City Lord, what do you want to talk to Master about?"

Sikong Changfeng finally came to his senses and raised the bill in his hand.

"It's nothing serious, actually. I just got some silver from Xiaoyao Sword Immortal last time, and I didn't use it up during the Hundred Flowers Festival. I wanted to ask him what to do with it."

After hearing this, Xiao Se took the bill and saw the remaining amount on it, which was indeed a considerable sum.

However, Xiao Se thought that his master would not care about the money.

So Xiao Se just shook his head.

"I'm sure Master won't care. The Third City Lord might as well make the decision and spend the money where it should be spent."

Lei Wujie, who was standing by, widened his eyes when he heard this and looked at Xiao Se in disbelief. Since he knew Xiao Se, Xiao Se had never been so generous.

Every time he wanted to eat another plate of pork belly, he would ask Xiao Se for a long time, and Xiao Se probably would not agree.

Although he didn't know how much was left on the bill, Lei Wujie thought that the three city lords had come in person, so it must be a considerable amount.

As a result, Xiao Se said lightly, "Forget it. The key point is that this is not his money!"

Sikong Changfeng also looked embarrassed.

"I'm afraid this isn't a good idea. Let's wait for Xiaoyao Sword Immortal to come back. I'm not in a hurry, but I just think that I have nothing to do now..."

Sikong Changfeng still didn't dare to make the decision on his own. He thought that if he borrowed something, he would repay it. It would not be difficult to borrow again. Although Lin Heng did not say that the money was lent to him, brothers should also settle accounts clearly. It is better not to take other people's help for granted.

After Sikong Changfeng had left, Lei Wujie came directly to Xiao Se.

"No, Xiao Se, what's wrong with you today? That's my brother-in-law's money. Although I think he probably won't ask for it back, you can just let it go."

Xiao Se glared at Lei Wujie fiercely.

"I once asked Master when I was sorting out the accounts, and Master said that the money should be regarded as the expenses of the Hundred Flowers Association. If it is not used up, we can just let the people of Xueyue City deal with it."

"But I think the Third City Lord seems to have something else in his words. Maybe he doesn't just want to talk about this matter, so I didn't delve into it any further."

"Don't think that everyone else is the same as you. Don't fall into the money trap and can't get out..."

Xiao Se glanced at Lei Wujie lightly, then walked past him and went to study new skills on the side.

Lei Wujie was left with a depressed look on his face, pointing at himself.

"I'm obsessed with money? Why did you ask me for five hundred taels of silver?"

Xiao Se, who was reading a book nearby, lazily stretched out three fingers.

"Wrong, add another three hundred taels, it will be eight hundred taels of silver."

But when he said this, Xiao Se suddenly laughed at himself.

"At that time, I was still struggling with the business of eight million taels of silver, but now I don't have that thought at all. No matter how much silver is, it is just a thing outside of my body. It can be exchanged for what I need, and that is its only value."

“But if one day these things are no longer the most important, and you have changed your pursuit, then money is truly just a thing outside of your body.”

Lei Wujie looked puzzled and turned away.

"The last time we went out, I asked you to lend me one ounce of silver, but you haggled over it, and even turned the last ounce into a hundred ounces."

Lei Wujie's face was full of indignation when he said this, because he had seen Xiao Se's penny-pinching nature.

As a result, this person is still here saying that money is external to the body, and he looks like he has no desires or requests. People who don’t know him would actually think what he said is true.

What’s even more terrifying is that if it were me back then, I might have believed it.

The world is treacherous, and this old fox is becoming more and more smooth.

Xiao Se immediately rolled up the book and hit Lei Wujie on the head.

"But without money, you can't do anything. You can see that any martial arts master is penniless and doesn't even have money to eat. Even if the master is so powerful, doesn't he have enormous wealth? This is not contradictory at all, okay?"

Lei Wujie blinked and thought carefully that what Xiao Se said seemed to be right, but then he thought again and seemed to have been tricked again. He always felt that something was wrong.

But before he could think about it, he was suddenly shocked and stood up immediately.

"Who?"

Lei Wujie immediately drew out his heart sword. He looked outside the door with a wary look on his face, and his hand holding the sword tightened a little.

The smile on Xiao Se's face immediately faded, and the Wuji Stick appeared in his hand.

Only a few laughs were heard outside, and then a gust of wind pushed the door open.

Li Changsheng pushed the door open and saw the two people so nervous, he couldn't help but shook his head.

"What are you afraid of? This is Xueyue City. There are so many people guarding it. How could anyone sneak in without being noticed?"

When Lei Wujie saw Li Changsheng, he slowly put away his sword. In fact, he was so alert because his heart sword suddenly vibrated.

I originally thought it was an enemy, but who knew it turned out to be this strange senior.

Li Changsheng lowered his head and saw the heart sword in Lei Wujie's hand. His eyes paused for a moment, as if he thought of something, but he immediately recovered.

"You are their child, and you will be fine in the future. Besides, you are born with a delicate heart. The Sword of Protection will eventually fall into your hands."

"The martial arts world I was familiar with has disappeared, but its traces still exist, and its heritage is still passed down from generation to generation. Seeing this, I feel a little comforted."

Xiao Se also had a blank expression on his face and put away the Wuji Stick. If Lei Wujie hadn't been suddenly startled, he wouldn't even have noticed Li Changsheng's arrival.

This may be the difference in realm.

After seeing Xiao Se, Li Changsheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"You don't look like your father at all, but you do look a bit like your uncle. If I had met you earlier, I might have accepted you as my apprentice."

Xiao Se just gave Li Changsheng a faint look.

"My master is the free and easy swordsman Lin Heng, and it will only be him. Isn't it enough for Mr. Li to have so many disciples?"
