Chapter 20 Your Master is Broke

"You are shameless! Youyou, let's go!"

Ji Liu quickly stopped Dou Youyou.

"Jun Wan, if you don't want to see me, that's fine. I'm here for Youyou today!"

Dou Jun Wan's face was displeased.

"What do you want?"

Ji Liu said, "I heard that Youyou is the disciple of the village chief of Novice Village No. 88. It's precisely because of this that Youyou has become so powerful, especially that cleaver. Youyou, name your price, how much for the cleaver!"

Dou Youyou neither disliked nor liked Ji Liu. On the contrary, she had gained many good things from him.

"I'm not selling it. That's my master's cleaver."

Ji Liu knew it wouldn't be easy to get.

"Youyou, you know my capabilities. Besides the top three guilds, there are very few guilds that can be my opponent. If I had this cleaver, I could bring down even the top three guilds. At that time, I'll make you the true Goddess of War."

Dou Youyou couldn't give the cleaver to Ji Liu, and moreover, she couldn't. She had already returned it to her master.

"There's nothing I can do about that. The cleaver belongs to my master. I returned it to him after the beast tide. Do you want to find my master?"

Ji Liu's brows twitched. If he could enter Novice Village No. 88, would he still need to beg you here?

If the game company hadn't suddenly modified the delete character button, he would have entered Novice Village No. 88 long ago, and perhaps the cleaver would have been in his hands already.

"Youyou, you know that no one can enter Novice Village No. 88 now. Only you have a good relationship with that village chief. Once you leave the novice village, you won't see that village chief again. He has so many good things, you should at least get some, right?"

Dou Youyou: "What are you thinking? Don't you know my master's temper?"

"Uh!" Ji Liu had indeed heard about it. He heard that he held grudges and that most people wouldn't dare to ask for quests. He didn't know what luck this girl had to even become his disciple.

"You're his disciple, he shouldn't be..."

"That's enough, Youyou has already said she can't help you. Youyou, let's go!"

Saying that, she directly pulled Dou Youyou away from the hall.

Seeing the two leave, Ji Liu's face instantly darkened.

"If my Ji family didn't depend on your Dou family in certain aspects, do you really think you are anything!"

...

Looking at the instant noodles made with "technology and ruthless business" in front of him, although they lacked nutrition, they at least filled his stomach.

He opened his secondhand phone worth a hundred yuan and started looking for a new place to live.

"Hiss, I didn't know until I looked, but these cramped rooms are so cheap. How can they be at least 1500 a month, with the expensive ones costing three to four thousand?"

Zhang Pingfan had lived in such cramped rooms since he started working. They were economical. Now that prices had increased, they were no longer cheap.

After searching for a long time, he finally found a single room nearby, which was shared, and it cost 1800 a month.

Although it was a bit expensive, it was equipped with everything, and it was already very good.

After some communication, Zhang Pingfan confirmed it, but he had to wait a few days as the landlord was away on a business trip.

Since the rent wouldn't expire for a few more days anyway, he would wait.

When Zhang Pingfan logged in again, the entire novice village had returned to its quiet and peaceful state, as it was before the beast tide.

"It's better in the game. Even though it was all smashed up, it was repaired so quickly."

Zhang Pingfan returned to his small courtyard, and Hei Huang was still diligently tilling the wasteland.

Seeing Zhang Pingfan return, he bowed respectfully to Zhang Pingfan.

Zhang Pingfan looked at Hei Huang. The black robe made him look a bit awkward. He thought a thief had broken into his house.

"Xiao Hei, can you change your clothes? This black robe looks quite creepy."

Hei Huang waved his hand, and the black robe disappeared. In its place was a common coarse cloth outfit for a farmer.

This way, he really looked like an old farmer.

"Good, good. Wear it like this from now on. We need to be low-key, understand!"

"Yes, Master!"

Zhang Pingfan leaned back on the lounge chair, pondering how to make money next. He had earned a lot yesterday, but he hadn't made any money today.

Just as Zhang Pingfan was racking his brain... Dou Youyou logged in.

"Master~"

A sweet, coquettish voice came from Dou Youyou's mouth.

"Pfft!"

The tea he was drinking, Zhang Pingfan, spat it out directly.

"Cough, cough, Youyou, let's talk properly!"

Dou Youyou said with a giggle, "Hehe, Master, I have a question."

Zhang Pingfan rolled his eyes. He knew it wasn't anything good, otherwise, she wouldn't have made such a sweet sound.

"What question? I promise I can't necessarily agree to it!"

"Uh, Master, how can you be like this? You know, after we players reach level ten, we have to leave the novice village, and then you won't see your cute and beautiful disciple anymore."

She could really praise herself. Although what she said was not wrong, praising herself like this in front of her master, did she really think her master was an NPC?

"If I don't see you, I don't see you. A stupid disciple like you, it's fine to lose you!"

"Hey, Master, how can you be like this? Can't you teach me something before I leave, like giving me some equipment or teaching me some skills?"

Zhang Pingfan's face darkened. It was already good that he hadn't asked her for anything, but she was trying to scheme against her master. Did she really think I was a complete fool?

"No, your master is destitute and has nothing!"

This was actually true. Zhang Pingfan indeed had nothing to show off.

Dou Youyou coquettishly hugged Zhang Pingfan's arm.

"Master, just teach me something, anything. You're my only master. If I leave the novice village, this account will be useless!"

Zhang Pingfan had no choice. He really couldn't teach her anything.

"Master, perhaps I can teach the young master something!"

An old farmer appeared in front of Zhang Pingfan.

Dou Youyou pointed at the old farmer and said, "He's probably that guy in the black robe, right?"

Zhang Pingfan nodded. Hei Huang was so powerful, he could indeed teach Youyou on his behalf.

"If that's the case, then teach her something, but don't teach her how to cultivate medicinal herbs!"

"Yes!"

Hei Huang made a hand gesture, and a magical scene occurred. An old farmer identical to Hei Huang separated from his body, picked up a hoe, and continued to till the wasteland.

Dou Youyou's eyes widened.

"So amazing! Is this a clone technique? I want to learn it!"

Hei Huang said, "The young master's current ability is too low, so she cannot learn it for now!"

Dou Youyou pouted. Her ability was too low, and then the word "too" was added, which was too hurtful.

"Then what can you teach me?"

Hei Huang: "Some offensive spells. Currently, the young master's ability is too low, and she can only barely learn two!"

"...Saying it once is enough. Do you need to say it a second time!"

Zhang Pingfan beside them couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Dou Youyou said indignantly, "Master, you're still laughing!"

"Haha, you guys continue, just treat me like air!"

Who was Hei Huang? None of the skills he knew were ordinary. The two skills that could only be barely learned were Hei Huang's most unpresentable Profound-grade skills.

But for Dou Youyou, it was a great opportunity.

"Oh my god, it's the Profound-grade skill Dark Swamp, and the Profound-grade skill Dark Flame!"
