Man is in the midst of the mysteries of the spirit, and the flesh is infinitely deduced

Yin Feichen even hoped that Anle would destroy the Dong family to relieve his hatred.

But his sister apparently had different ideas.

Yin Yu secretly glanced at Anle in front of him, and the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger.

The strength displayed by Senior Wuxu was indeed extraordinary, but killing the Dong family's steward so blatantly would inevitably lead to their revenge.

If it was just the Dong family, it would be fine. Senior Wuxu could fight them alone. But what if they attracted the government officials?

Thinking of the war that she had witnessed with her own eyes, Yin Yu could not help but tremble slightly and her face turned pale.

Like all feudal dynasties, the Great Tai Dynasty also had a dedicated army.

Some warriors with advanced martial arts skills will even be forcibly conscripted into the army to serve.

In Yin Yu's opinion, no matter how strong Senior Wuxu was, he was only one man. He might be able to withstand one or two waves of encirclement and suppression from the government, but when a real army approached, he would probably have no choice but to flee in panic.

By then, Senior Wuxu might be able to escape, but they and their brother would definitely not be able to escape.

With this in mind, Yin Yu whispered, "Senior, our Great Tai Dynasty governs the country by force. The warriors in the government are of high level and numerous, so it is better not to provoke them."

"Oh, is it so?"

Anle saw Yin Yu's worry and smiled: "You think too much. I have always been kind to others."

"I always adhere to the principle that I will not offend others unless they offend me."

"I will not commit murder without reason."

Yin Yu glanced at the four people from the Dong family who had long been silent, and was speechless for a moment.

"Don't worry, not only will I not take action against the Dong family, I will also give them a big gift."

Hearing Anle's words, Yin Yu got goose bumps all over his body and felt cold all over. He couldn't help but feel some sympathy for the Dong family.

******

After getting the assurance of safety, Yin Yu and his sister finally returned to Nanlin Village and pretended that nothing had happened.

After all, this is where they have lived since childhood. If they were not forced to do so, how could they be willing to leave their hometown and flee to another place.

Now that the people from the Dong family have been dealt with, they are safe at least for a short period of time.

As for Anle, it was naturally impossible for her to return to the village with her siblings.

Even if he was wearing a yellow robe, this image was still too eye-catching. People could tell at a glance that this stranger was abnormal, which would cause trouble.

At this time, he was heading to the nearest Baoqi County.

Although Anle's strength has not yet recovered, under the infection of the void, he has acquired many strange characteristics, and his combat power is enough to compete with ordinary enemies.

Only by going to the county town in person can the problem be solved as soon as possible.

Along the way, Anle would certainly not let go of any monsters he encountered, and would also observe the customs and habits of the Datai Divine Dynasty.

He passed by many farmlands, where farmers with weather-beaten faces were working in the fields.

However, some of the land does not belong to the farmers, but is occupied by landlords.

The ordinary people in the fields were just tenants of the landlords, and most of the grain they harvested had to be handed over to the landlords.

When they saw Anle's appearance, they were all terrified and hid far away, not daring to get close at all.

There are rural women washing clothes by the river. The fabrics of the clothes look very novel.

Combined with Yin Yu's description of the Dong family, it is not difficult to see that the textile industry here is actually quite developed and has a considerable market and consumption capacity.

"Based on the small peasant economy, have handicrafts and commodity economy gradually begun to sprout?"

After observing these situations, Anle took out the silver and banknotes he had searched from the manager of the Dong family.

The Great Tai Dynasty not only used gold and silver as transaction currencies, but also derived silver notes issued by the Great Tai Dynasty.

There is a seal of "Min'an Money House" on the silver note.

The combined assets of the Dong family's steward and several servants amounted to over a hundred taels of silver, which was a huge sum of money in a small place like Nanlin Village.

This shows the financial resources of the Dong family as a country landlord.

An Le thought to himself, "This level of development is close to the Ming Dynasty on Earth, but... the number of practitioners here doesn't seem to be that large?"

"The method of cultivation doesn't seem to be very popular?"

In the territory of the Chiyu Sect, it is very difficult to break through the foundation-building stage, but it is still very easy to find a technique and practice to the Qi training stage.

But ordinary people in Baoqi County, even if they practiced martial arts, often did not even break through the first realm. They only used it to strengthen their bodies and make it easier to work.

It is completely impossible to tell where the “God” of “Divine Dynasty” is.

However, Anle knew very well that he was still in the most marginal area of ​​the Great Tai Divine Dynasty and must not generalize.

Only when we reach those prosperous places can we perhaps get a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of this divine dynasty.

In this way, Anle walked and stopped, spent half a day, and arrived at the gate of Baoqi County late at night.

Compared to the desolate and dilapidated village, there is a flat and wide post road outside the county town, which is covered with traces of wheel tracks. Horse-drawn carriages and caravans pass by during the day.

The city wall was tall and made of gray-white bricks, but Anle saw no traces of magic circles.

On the surface, it is just an ordinary mortal county town.

"Ok?"

Anle looked towards the county town, an expression of interest appearing on his face beneath his robe.

There were two or three auras there that concerned him.

"There are still some strong people in Baoqi County."

However, Anle's purpose of this trip was not to cause trouble.

He suppressed the aura around him, straightened his robes, controlled the tentacles on his body to not move, and then quietly sneaked into the night.

******

Deep inside the magnificent mansion.

"No! Dad, don't chase me away!"

Dong Gaohan suddenly woke up from his dream, cold sweat broke out on his back, and he couldn't help but scream out loud.

"Master?"

The maid beside the bed was also awakened and asked sleepily, "What happened?"

Dong Gaohan took two heavy breaths and managed to say, "...It's okay."

"Oh."

The little maid replied sullenly, "Then I'll go back to sleep."

Soon, the sound of even and steady breathing could be heard in the darkness.

Dong Gaohan lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling above his head. Thinking of the scene in his dream just now, he couldn't fall asleep.

He dreamed that he was driven out of the Dong family by his father and moved to a small village under Baoqi County. Even his maid was kidnapped by someone, and he ended up living out his life in loneliness.

Even though it was just a dream, Dong Gaohan still felt a little scared.

He sighed: "What you think about during the day, you dream about at night."

"If I still can't break through the first level..."

Dong Gaohan's nightmare was certainly not groundless, as he had just been scolded by his father during the day.

It was said that he was not ambitious and did not put his energy into cultivation, which was why he had not yet broken through to the first level.

He also said that if Dong Gaohan failed to break through within a month, his daily pocket money would be cut off.

"Alas, I have tried so hard, why haven't I reached the first level yet?"

Dong Gaohan was very puzzled.

He only went to a brothel once every five days, practiced martial arts once every three days, and drank delicious food that nourished his qi and blood every day. He was many times more diligent than his brother who lingered in brothels every day.

However, the Qi and blood did not increase but decreased, and has not yet broken through.

After thinking for a moment, Dong Gaohan came to a conclusion.

"It must be that the martial arts teacher at home didn't teach me well! I need to ask Dad to change him immediately!"

Dong Gaohan is the sixth son of the Dong family and the youngest of this generation. He was originally given high hopes by Dong's father. The martial arts master said that he was a good material for martial arts training and might even pass the military examination and become an official to bring honor to the family.

But who would have thought that he is sixteen years old this year and has not yet broken through the first level.

Dong's father gradually became disappointed with him and slowly reduced his treatment.

After moving from the original large house to this remote courtyard, the amount of spiritual food consumed on a daily basis was reduced a lot.

Thinking of this, Dong Gaohan frowned: "This won't work!"

It would be fine if his living quarters and food became worse, but if he lost his pocket money, wouldn't he be unable to go to brothels?

Dong Gaohan could never accept this.

"The Avon girl is still waiting for me!"

When Dong Gaohan thought that he might not be able to see the beautiful face of the Avon girl, he felt depressed and uncomfortable all over, as if ants were crawling on his body.

"No! You have to work harder and be more diligent!"

With the Avon girl as his target, Dong Gaohan instantly became excited. He simply stopped sleeping, got up from the bed, opened the door, and went to the yard to start practicing martial arts.

"Master, what are you doing again?"

"Humph! Young Master, I'm going to work hard to become stronger!"

Dong Gaohan looked stern and confident: "I want to make those who look down on me look at me in a new light!"

******

"Oh... No, I can't do that anymore!"

"so tired……"

After finishing two sets of boxing, Dong Gaohan fell to the ground, gasping for breath, sweat all over his body, and he was as tired as a dead dog, not wanting to move even a finger.

"I've tried my best today, or should I continue tomorrow... oh no, the day after tomorrow!"

"If you don't rest well, how can you have the energy to practice martial arts?"

After convincing himself in his heart, Dong Gaohan just wanted to take a shower and then lie back down on the bed.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew through the courtyard.

The wind made Dong Gaohan's hair stand on end, his heart skipped a beat, and he opened his eyes slightly.

The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds in the sky. The night seemed darker than usual, and a vague sense of depression fell on Dong Gaohan's heart.

'Wait, what is that?'

Dong Gaohan stared at a corner of the courtyard and couldn't help swallowing.

He seemed to have seen a dark, living creature crawling past, but when he looked closely, it no longer existed, as if it was just an illusion.

Dong Gaohan thought: "Could it be that a warrior broke into my house?"

"What a courage! He must be taught a lesson!"

At this moment, he took a breath: "Hiss... so cold..."

A sticky and cold touch gradually emerged on the surface of Dong Gaohan's skin.

An unknown sound of squirming and twisting came into his ears.

"Xiao Cui! Where are you?"

At this point, Dong Gaohan panicked and shouted the maid's name.

But Xiao Cui, who was clearly in the room, never responded and was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water.

Dong Gaohan turned his head and was surprised to find that the house behind him had been swallowed up by a solid and heavy shadow.

Beside him, even the ground beneath his feet was covered with a layer of black.

It seemed as if Dong Gaohan was trapped alone in this dark, cold, enclosed space, surrounded by endless darkness, and unprecedented fear rose from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, a hoarse but bewitching voice sounded in Dong Gaohan's ears.
