Haji Hui
"My Lord."
Di Tian appeared silently beside Gu Yue, and passersby seemed not to see the two of them, continuing on their way.
"Is this gun the footprint of that person?"
As Gu Yue gazed at the blazing white spear, which resembled white jade, and felt the boundless power of faith emanating from it, she couldn't help but become curious about the spear.
"Indeed, this is one of the Twelve Divine Weapons personally created by that person, possessing the power to support the heavens and the earth and sustain the vitality of all living beings."
Di Tian slowly recounted the origin of this spear, which currently only Di Tian himself, the two rulers of the Far North, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and the Hongchen siblings are capable of touching.
Over the course of ten thousand years, countless prodigies with gun-wielding Martial Soul have come to comprehend this knowledge, creating countless geniuses.
When Yun Ming challenged the Star Dou Spirit Transmission Academy back then, it wasn't just to confess his feelings to the Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li, but also to witness the divine power of this towering white jade pillar.
At that time, the academy sent 150 titled experts to the competition, including 50 Super Douluo, all of whom were around 40 or 50 years old.
Yun Ming was no match for them and ultimately used his Space-Banning power to suppress his numerous opponents on the ground. However, he dared not go down himself, for that would mean being ganged up on by a hundred people—who could withstand that?
In the end, it was Xiong Jun who made the move. With 500,000 years of cultivation, False Demigod level, but possessed Demigod- level combat power. In addition, with the amplification of the Four-Word Battle Armor at the Quasi-God level, he was able to unleash the power of Quasi-God.
In addition, the inherent advantage of Soul Beast of the same level was enough to drive Yun Ming away. However, before leaving, Yun Ming also examined the divine spear and felt an absolute suppression from it.
His Atlas Spear was meant to support the Qingtian for him alone. At that time, Yun Ming was young and impetuous, acting without any scruples. He was a typical individualist who believed himself to be no less than anyone else and wanted to compete with this legendary Sky-Supporting Divine Spear.
However, the Atlas Spear was Qingtian by him alone, but the Sky-Supporting Divine Spear was Qingtian by an entire world, carrying the faith of billions of people on Douluo Star.
Both humans and Soul Beasts are His people. To protect His people, He upholds His might. Yun Ming's Qingtian to support the heavens is a joke in front of Him.
Finally, Yun Ming left. His temper had also calmed down a lot. He was no longer young and impetuous, and only had consideration. Later, Yue Tian Douluo also came to pay his respects to the gun. He was very polite and even brought resources to apologize.
This spear was once wielded by the Ice Empress and used to suppress millions of flying Abyss Creatures during the Abyss War. Now it is placed here for the students to study and comprehend.
After hearing the story of the gun, Gu Yue fell into a long silence. She couldn't understand why the Spirit Transferring Douluo, who was clearly a human, would spare no effort to protect all living beings.
According to her estimation, if the other party had wanted to escape back then, the Sea God Asura God would never have been able to kill them, until she saw the words on the back of the stone tablet.
"Great love for all people, taking from the people and using for the people."
He was made by the power of faith, and he will give back this power to its source. This statement is regarded as the truth by the Holy Spirit Douluo.
All beings give me faith, and I save all beings from suffering. Without a doubt, this is God-Level Intent and mentality. Although Gu Yue does not understand it, he respects it. After all, this great love for all people includes Soul Beasts.
On the other side, Chen Jianshu was unaware that Gu Yue was admiring the divine artifact after him and was currently strolling around Star Dou Street.
"Hello boss, are you hiring?"
"Hiring... little kid, how old are you? You have to be at least fourteen to be eligible to hire."
He looked up at the sound and saw a dirty-looking figure wrapped in a black robe asking for job openings at the entrance of a barbecue restaurant.
"I... I'm sorry to have bothered you..."
Chen Jianshu knew about the other party's difficulties, but when this petite figure ran away from home, she did not take her ID card with her, nor did she take much money. Only the ancestor came out with her.
There's still about a month until the Star Dou Spirit Transmission Academy starts enrolling students, so it needs to figure out a good place to stay and a way to make money here.
Of course, she had considered other options. The ancestor recommended that she join the Spirit Pagoda, but she remembered that her grandfather was an elder of the Spirit Pagoda. What if she joined the Spirit Pagoda and her grandfather found out about her?
Four years ago, when she was seven years old, the Demon Gate opened, and a group of dark, bloodthirsty demons swept through her family.
She didn't know what had happened; she only knew that her father had sent her into a safe barrier.
Later, she witnessed her grandfather severely injure her mother and was about to kill her when snowflakes fell, and all the surrounding demons turned into ice sculptures and died, turning into specks of black light that disappeared back into the Demon Gate.
Afterwards, his mother was expelled from the family and taken away by the woman dressed in white and wearing a straw hat.
Because their family is located in Titan City in the north, which is closest to the Far North, it was the Snow Empress who came to their aid.
After that, she was ostracized within the family. Her father became despondent, and her grandfather became taciturn. In the end, she ran away from there. Before leaving, she unexpectedly discovered that the ancestral item had appeared in her pocket.
The simple-minded girl thought that the ancestor was worried about her, which was why he followed her closely. She was deeply moved, thinking that the ancestor really loved her the most.
Having traveled at a leisurely pace, she has now arrived in Star Dou City, but she has run out of money and probably doesn't even have enough for food. Of course, if she joins the Spirit Pagoda, all her problems will be solved.
After joining the Spirit Pagoda, she not only has access to a hotel specifically for Spirit Pagoda members, but also benefits such as free food. However, she is afraid that after joining the Spirit Pagoda, her grandfather will find her and take her back to the family that everyone in the clan ostracizes her.
Simply put, it's the Will of Domination. Her family members bullied and neglected her, and various sharp voices often echoed in her ears.
After receiving the same rejection from another shop, she had no choice but to leave.
Chen Jianshu raised an eyebrow. Oh ho! A wild Haji Mi! First come, first served! The opponent was wrapped in a black robe, but under Chen Jianchu's Spiritual Power at the Spirit Abyss Realm level, the opponent's concealment was completely ineffective.
The red-haired tomboy, surrounded by an aura of darkness—who else could it be but Haji Hui?
It seems like the time is about right. In the original story, Haji Hui is a senior student one year ahead of Tang Wulin and the others, and Shrek only recruits students once every three years.
Chen Jianshu and the others are now ten years old. In the original story, Tang Wulin and the others will not enroll until three years later. There is still a month before Shrek Academy's enrollment. Calculating the time, Haji Hui will arrive here around the same time.
There's a wild Haji Mi here, and since nobody else wants it, I'll take it! First come, first served!
Chen Jianshu's figure vanished from the spot in an instant. Then he took out his phone, opened the Spirit Pagoda's Official Account, and clicked on the shop option. The shops displayed here were all under the Spirit Pagoda.
He could buy the right to use the shop, and after a quick online transfer, Chen Jianshu soon owned his own shop.
It has to be said that being a core disciple of the Spirit Pagoda is very convenient. When shopping at stores under the Spirit Pagoda, you don't need to queue up or sign any contracts offline; you can sign them online.
The reason I was able to buy the shop so easily is because my side job is the most profitable thing right now. It's hard to imagine that a piece of Spirit-Forged Metal costs at least a million.
Shops are usually run by large families, such as the Phoenix Family, the Xiao Family, and the Qiangu Family. They have many members, so they need to create some jobs for them, right?
Therefore, Chen Jianshu's purchase of this shop went quite smoothly. It seemed to be a wine shop, but the previous owner's skills were not very good. In addition, because Star Dou City had concentrated all the major local brewing manufacturers, business was very slow. This shop was also located in the alley with the least foot traffic on the street.
But it doesn't matter, it's just for luring little girls anyway, hehehe, red-haired little Haji Hui, here I come~ You can't escape my grasp!
Chen Jianshu arrived at the Little Alley and handed over the goods to the shop owner. It seemed that only the shop owner and three or four relatives remained in the shop. Seeing that someone had come to take over the mess, they packed up their things and ran away.
There were no brewing tools at all, as if they knew the others weren't cut out for brewing, so they didn't touch those things. Chen Jianshu curiously opened a jar of wine and took a sip, immediately feeling a bit speechless. Why did it taste sour?
He looked closer and exclaimed, "Holy crap!" The jars used for brewing wine seemed to have been used to pickle sauerkraut before! Sauerkraut that smelled like feet!
"Ugh... Damn it! You threw it all away!"
He finally understood why their business was struggling; it turned out it was because of the brewing jars.
Of course, if it's Na'er's pickled cabbage, he'll definitely eat it with gusto. Snow Empress's is fine too. If possible, I'd like one of each of Gu Yue, Xu Xiaoyan, Ye Xinglan, Wu Siduo, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Meng Hongchen. I'm not picky.
After disposing of all the jars, he started preparing other things. Since he was going to do something, he needed to find some work to do, otherwise, what if he scared Haji Hui away?
I can't just say, "Haji Hui, I'll take care of you," or she'll probably call the police! I'm just giving this poor Haji Hui -haired little girl a home, what did I do wrong?
Two hours later...
Yuanen Yehui sighed as she refused to hire anyone again on Swan Street. She was running out of money; she had left in such a hurry that she hadn't brought much with her. If it weren't for the help of a few kind people along the way, she probably wouldn't have even made it to Star Dou City.
Her stomach was already rumbling, and looking at the meager 50,000 Federation Coins she had left, she knew she could only last another month at most.
Just as she was about to give it a try, she happened to see a job advertisement posted at the port of the Little Alley.
"Let's try one last time. If it really doesn't work, we'll try again tomorrow."
Yuanen Yehui murmured to himself, then followed the directions into the Little Alley, and soon found a small shop that looked somewhat new at the very end.
"Um... hello, is anyone there?"
She peeked out from the doorway and tentatively greeted the people inside. She observed that the interior furnishings suggested the building was relatively new, having been constructed only a few years prior; the original shops here had closed down after a year or two.
Yes, it's here.
Upon hearing the sound, Chen Jianshu, who was playing games at the front desk, immediately stood up and waved. Seeing someone her age there, a look of confusion flashed in her eyes.
"Um, where's your boss? I wanted to ask if you're hiring?"
Although this shop seemed a bit deserted and unreliable, since it belonged to the Spirit Pagoda, it must be trustworthy. That's what reputation is all about. Just then, a child about his age patted his chest and said:
"I'm the owner here. We are indeed hiring. You want to work here? Here are the employee benefits; take a look."
Chen Jianshu pulled out a contract of servitude... no! a formal contract, and handed it to the other party, who was completely bewildered.
"You're the boss? But you seem to be about the same age as me."
"You don't understand, do you? I'm just here to experience life. I've been bored and suddenly thought of opening a shop for fun."
After hearing the explanation, Yuanen Yehui glanced at the benefits: room and board included, 500,000 yuan a month, five social insurances and one housing fund, the benefits were very good, which made her very tempted.
However, because it was so good, she felt it was somewhat unreal and was afraid that she had been deceived.
"Um... Boss, is everything written on it true?"
"Really, this is Star Dou City! The world's largest Judgment Court is located here. Would I dare to fake it?"
"Won't hiring me cause you trouble? I'm only eleven years old."
"No, just call me brother then. I'll say we're relatives, and everything will be fine. So, are you going to sign or not? If you don't, I'm about to leave."
After a series of questions, the other party breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there were no problems.
I'll sign.
"Alright, welcome!"
As Yuanen Yehui signed the contract, Yuanen Yehui officially became an employee of Chen Jianshu. After signing, an untimely gurgling sound rang out.
Chen Jianshu subconsciously glanced at the other person's lower abdomen and saw that the other person's cheeks immediately turned red, filled with shame and indignation.
"Hungry? Let's eat first. I'll Chou Tuan. What do you want to eat?"
He opened his phone, opened the app, and started ordering food. Then his gaze fell on Yuanen Yehui, who was blushing and looking down, so embarrassed that he wished he could disappear into the ground.
"I... I'm fine with anything, I'm not picky about food."
"Okay, I'll order one for you."
"What?"
Hearing his words, a look of confusion flashed in the other person's eyes. What did he mean by "I can order anything"? Seeing the other person's expression, he raised the screen on his phone and said:
"Look, there's a dish here called 'Anything', it costs 300 Federation Coins."
Yuanen Yehui looked over and indeed saw the menu above.
Either way is fine, 150 Federation Coins.
Either is fine, 300 Federation Coins.
Whatever, five hundred Federation Coins.
You choose, one hundred Federation Coins.
I'm fine with anything, 100 Federation Coins.
The bizarre menu names above shocked her, and a thought flashed through her mind, "What respectable restaurant would name its menu like this?"
"Is this restaurant legitimate? Something feels off about it."
She immediately asked herself a profound question; she just felt that something was off about the menu.
"It's all official, it's just that the boss is a real talent. Okay, we've finished ordering. Now let's introduce ourselves. My name is Chen Jianshu, and I'll be your boss from now on."
"Hello boss, my name is Yuanen Yehui. I'll be relying on you from now on..."
"No trouble at all. It's rare to have someone accompany me in starting a business; it's quite an exciting experience. After we've eaten, I'll show you around your job."
The first and second updates were on September 7th. Today, I had 8 AM, and a full schedule of classes in the morning and afternoon, so I only had two updates.
Wait, what? The sky fell when I got back from class. My Douluo Dalu III: The Legend of the Dragon King Grass Block, which I'd been playing for almost two years, was banned.
