#670 - An An

Ying Zhi and Qin Liang both saw the little girl's amazing aptitude, as well as her long-term malnutrition.

The little girl opened her innocent eyes and said, "My name is An'an."

"As long as I can remember, the little friends who beg for food with me have called me that."

Qin Buyi frowned slightly. The name An'an was fine as a pet name, but it was really inappropriate as a formal name.

Looking at the little girl's tattered clothes and her mention of begging for food, she was definitely a beggar.

Despite the unparalleled prosperity of the Great Ming Dynasty, there was no shortage of beggars at the bottom.

These beggars were often reduced to begging for various reasons.

In fact, more than 90% of the forces could not avoid the appearance of beggars.

As long as the bottom structure of this force was mortal, then beggars would inevitably be derived, which was inevitable.

Qin Buyi looked at Lan Wenhao, and Lan Wenhao nodded to him, meaning that the little girl was not lying.

Before bringing the little girl to Qin Buyi, Lan Wenhao had already investigated the little girl's identity and background thoroughly, and even tested the little girl's memory through various secret methods.

Until it was determined that this little girl had no problem, she was brought to Qin Buyi.

Qin Buyi said softly: "An'an, who sent you to participate in the selection?"

An'an said: "Two days ago, I heard someone say while begging for food that Emperor Qin was holding a selection, and children under the age of six could participate."

Speaking of this, An'an broke her fingers and said: "I don't know how old I am, but I heard that I can have enough to eat if I participate in this selection, so I came..."

Qin Buyi and others looked at each other. Qin Buyi transmitted the voice to several people: "What a poor child."

Qin Liang said: "It's very pitiful."

Ying Zhi said: "After I go back this time, I will let Nantian Long thoroughly investigate the number of beggars in the Great Ming Imperial Capital and give them some help, at least they must have enough to eat."

Qin Liang complained: "Brother Ying Zhi, you are embarrassed to say that there are still people under your rule who can't even get enough to eat. I am ashamed for you."

Ying Zhi smiled awkwardly: "That's true, but this is normal. Every dynasty and every force is like this."

"You are now in charge of the Small Thousand World, dare you say that there are no beggars among the bottom mortals?"

After Qin Liang heard what Ying Zhi said, he suddenly stopped talking.

There are indeed beggars in the Small Thousand World, and the number is not too large now, but it is gradually increasing.

If this matter is really debated with Ying Zhi, it will only end up hurting each other.

An'an continued, but her voice began to be a little aggrieved: "I have been participating in this selection for four days, and I haven't eaten a full meal."

"The guy who told me I could have enough to eat must be lying to me!"

An'an's innocent and aggrieved voice made several men present couldn't help but focus their eyes on Lan Wenhao.

This time it was Lan Wenhao's turn to be embarrassed. He scratched his head and smiled brightly: "Why are you all looking at me?"

Ying Zhi said: "Look at the good things you have done. You haven't even given the little girl a full meal for four days. I really don't know what to say about you."

Qin Liang said: "Brother Wenhao, you... sigh~"

Lan Wenhao said: "In good conscience, I am to select all the children with the fastest and most efficient speed, and screen out the last person."

"I haven't even had a sip of water these days..."

Speaking of the end, Lan Wenhao's tone revealed a guilty conscience.

He really didn't expect this. Fortunately, these children participating in the test and selection have spiritual energy to nourish their bodies during this process, so there is no major problem.

Ying Zhi said: "Brother Wenhao, with your current cultivation level, it would not be a problem not to drink water or eat for a hundred years..."

Qin Liang echoed: "That's right, that's right, but this little girl can't do it. How can a mortal body be so hungry."

Lan Wenhao looked at Qin Buyi for help.

Qin Buyi said: "Okay, don't talk about Brother Wenhao, he didn't do it on purpose."

Qin Buyi said to An'an: "Do you know who I am?"

An'an looked at Qin Buyi with clear black and white eyes and said, "I heard this uncle say when I came that you are Emperor Qin!"

Qin Buyi smiled and said: "Haha, yes, I am Emperor Qin!"

"Then I will ask you now, are you willing to be my official disciple?"

An'an's small face suddenly became a little cautious, and she looked at Qin Buyi and others suspiciously and said: "If I become your disciple, are you going to teach me those stealing skills?"

"Can I not learn these skills... It's better to steal things than to be a beggar and not have enough to eat."

"I once saw an aunt crying loudly on the spot after her things were stolen. An'an doesn't want to let others be like this in the future."

Everyone present was amused by An'an's words.

At this time, Qin Buyi couldn't help but think of a story from Blue Star.

This story does have something to do with beggars.

The story is very short. A beggar saw the emperor and looked at the luxuriously dressed emperor, thinking in his heart: It's better to be an emperor. At least you can eat three big white steamed buns a day.

It seems like an absurd sentence, but it actually reveals that a person is limited by his vision and experience and can only see so much.

For beggars, being able to eat big white steamed buns is the ultimate dream in life... He has never seen or known anything higher.

What is the difference between An'an's words just now and the beggar who wanted to eat three big white steamed buns that day?

Lan Wenhao transmitted the voice: "This little girl is very interesting. Our dignified Emperor Qin of the Great Ming Dynasty is actually like this in her eyes."

Ying Zhi said: "Hehe, if it spreads out, Emperor Qin is actually a teacher of stealing in the eyes of the little girl, it can really shock the territory of the Great Ming Dynasty."

Qin Liang said: "This little girl is really innocent."

In addition to feeling dumbfounded by what Qin Buyi said to An'an, he also made an evaluation of An'an's temperament.

Being able to survive in this smoky environment of beggars to this day and still have kindness in her heart is enough to show her temperament.

Qin Buyi said: "An'an, I won't teach you stealing skills, do you want to be my teacher?"

An'an pretended to be very fierce and said: "Don't lie to me! I am very powerful!"

This appearance made several people with the highest status in the Great Ming Dynasty laugh again.

Lan Wenhao didn't transmit the voice anymore and said directly: "Brother Qin, your future disciple is very interesting, very interesting!"

Ying Zhi said: "I hope my daughter will be so cute in the future."

Thinking of this, a trace of sadness flashed in Ying Zhi's eyes.

Once upon a time, he had a relationship with Wang Zhirou of the Wang family in Qingyang City.

Heaven did not fulfill people's wishes. Wang Zhirou could not practice since she was born, and her physical condition was getting worse every day.

She passed away from illness a few years ago...

Ying Zhi's feelings for this relationship were unforgettable, and this also became a relatively big regret in his heart.

Qin Buyi said to An'an: "I won't lie to you."

An'an hesitated and said: "Then... if I become your teacher, can you let me eat a full meal every three days... no... two days!"

"You are Emperor Qin, so powerful, you must be able to let me eat a full meal every two days, right."

An'an looked at Qin Buyi with anticipation.

Qin Buyi sighed in his heart. Since he embarked on the path of cultivation, he has never worried about having enough to eat.

If it were other children, knowing that there was such an opportunity to become Qin Buyi's disciple, they would happily agree.

How could they be like An'an, hesitating and hesitating, not understanding at all that the person in front of them is the man who can determine her fate.

But this is also good, this shows that the other party is not coming for Qin Buyi's status and status.

Lacking utilitarianism, Qin Buyi prefers such a pure disciple.
