Chapter 38 Go Home!

After leaving the prince's mansion,

Qin Wushuang wandered around in Tiandou City,
Haunted among various shops, bought a lot of daily necessities,
Of which rice and flour,
He even bought about [-] tons, enough for the villagers of Holy Soul Village to eat for decades.

All purchased,
The gold soul coins that Qin Wushuang carried with him did not consume much,
In the rest of the time, he simply found a bank and exchanged a large amount of Golden Soul Coins for Silver Soul Coins,
Only then was he contented to ride out of the city.

……

Notting City is a remote town located on the edge of Fasno Province in the southwest of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Coupled with the fact that the Heaven Dou Empire is extremely vast,

When Qin Wushuang rushed to Notting City,

It's almost the end of the year.

Notting City is not that big, and there are more than a dozen shops scattered on both sides of the narrow streets.
It makes people feel that the end of the year is approaching.

Qin Wushuang has never been to Notting City,

After a brief meal at the inn in the city, he asked the boy to find out the exact location of the Holy Soul Village.

At this time,

The conversation at the next table caught his attention.
"Did you know? The report of the empire's tax increase has reached the city lord, and it will be announced after the New Year."

"Another increase? I remember that there was only one increase last year?"

The people at the same table were surprised when they heard the words,
I couldn't help but continued, "Taxes are increasing every year, how can we live on?"

"The Fucheng next door had a severe drought last year, and there was no harvest. When taxes increased again, many people were starved to death."

"It's such a tragedy that the people of the Star Luo Empire thought they were bandits and killed them all at the border when they fled the famine overnight with their stored food."

The speaker sighed again,
"The people in Notting City are pretty good, and they have some family background."

"But what about the people outside the city?"

"After the New Year, I'm afraid there will be many more human tragedies."

The person at the same table drank the tea in the bowl in one gulp,
"Then what can we do? Who made us born civilians? We can only fight for the next life, and don't go to this world again."

"Bitter, it's really too bitter."

Having said that,

The two looked at each other, suddenly feeling sad and extremely painful.

And their conversation,

Also through the memory picture, it completely fell into the ears of everyone who participated in this trial.

They were silent again,
Even Oscar in the nameless town became silent.

He was an orphan adopted by Dean Fred,

It can be regarded as having experienced the hardships of that era.

Very true to say the last sentence,
If it weren't for his excellent martial arts talent, he might have become a pile of carrion in the mass grave.

He couldn't help sighing,
"At that time, it was really miserable. Many people's remaining rations were taken away by the imperial army."

"As for those families who lost their food, they could only leave their hometowns to beg all the way, but even so, they would still be oppressed and exploited by the checkpoints along the way and the nobles."

"The good ones may be directly beaten to death, and the bad ones are those women who are sold into the mines after being humiliated and become a tool for those miners to vent."

Speaking of which,

Oscar stopped talking further.

Because at that time, two-thirds of the mines and mines in the entire continent belonged to the "Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School", known as the number one chaebol in the mainland.

And the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, relying on these large mines,
In order to plunder countless wealth.

But what Oscar said,

For Ning Rongrong, who was spoiled and spoiled since childhood, it was like playing the piano to a cow,
She even naively asked,

"Since they can't afford rice, why don't they eat chicken, duck and fish?"

"Why don't they rent out the extra rooms and make money?"

"Why don't they use the empty carriage at home to solicit customers and make money?"

"I can think of so many ways to make money all of a sudden, why didn't any of them think of it?"

"Having said so much, the bottom line is that they are too lazy, they just want to dig food in the ground, and they are not willing to do more ways to make money."

"Such a person is not worthy of pity!"

Oscar: "..."

Holy Spirit Village.

From a distance, the Holy Soul Village is still very dilapidated.

The hills on all sides not only make it difficult for villagers to go out, but also hinder the entry of merchants.

This is why,
Tang Hao in the original book is so unbearable,

Old Jack is still willing to let him stay in the village because of his blacksmithing skills.

just walked into the village,
Qin Wushuang aroused the curiosity of many villagers.

There is no other reason,

It is really his temperament exuding from the inside out, which seems out of tune with the villagers of Holy Soul Village,

Dressed in white, with a firm face,

His tall but not burly figure made him look like a son of a noble family.

There are children who break free from the pull of adults,

Xiao ran over and asked,

"Big brother, who are you?"

"Why did you come to our holy soul village?"

see this scene,

Qin Wushuang smiled, knelt down and rubbed the child's messy hair,
"I'm going home."

child wondering,

Tilting his head, he continued to ask,

"Why do you want to go home?"

Qin Wushuang laughed,
"Because I am also from Holy Soul Village, of course I want to come back."

The child said "oh" seriously,
Then he turned and said loudly,

"Big Brother said he is also from Holy Soul Village."

boom!
The villagers who were scattered not far away and watched the excitement were all stunned.

The next moment, a swarm of bees rushed up and surrounded him,

"Young man, which family are you from? Why haven't we seen you before?"

"Young man, are you kidding me, my old lady? How can there be people like you in our holy soul village?"

"Hey, why do I feel that you seem to be a little familiar, but I don't remember very clearly."

"Youth..."

In the face of people's endless inquiries,
Qin Wushuang didn't feel displeased, but showed a smile from the heart,
said softly,

"I'm Qin Wushuang, the grandson of the village chief of Old Jack, don't you all know me?"

He recognized it immediately.
Among the people surrounding him, there was one who was obviously Huzi's mother.

It's just that the very sturdy woman in the past looks very old now,
on the stooped back,

It seems to always bear the burden of the family.

"Are you the grandson of the village chief?"

someone exclaimed,

With splendor in his eyes,
"The one who went to Wuhundian to study?"

Qin Wushuang had a smile on his face,
"If grandpa has no other grandson, that person should be me."

Suddenly,

Everyone in the Holy Soul Village was alarmed,
They walked out of the house one after another, wanting to see what he looks like now.

In fact, Holy Soul Village has, over the years,

It's not that there are no soul masters who have gone out of cultivation,
It's just that after they all left the village, they never came back again.

It was as if he had completely forgotten where he came from.

Just like the Lord Soul Sage back then, and Tang San in the original book,
The springboard you step on will always be just a springboard,

It's not worth them even looking back.

Human feelings are cold, nothing more than that...

……

This section of content has nothing to do with the main line.
It's just a whim,

I don't want a protagonist who completely forgets where he came from after finishing his studies.

I really like a saying that was circulated on the Internet last year,

"Reading is not to get you out of your poor hometown, but to get your hometown out of poverty."

But please rest assured that this episode will pass soon.
