As soon as I entered the door, I saw an old woman with sparse white hair lying on a messy bed.

Her eyes were full of tears, and she was crying and talking inarticulately.

It's just that whether it is her crying or her words, it seems very weak and weak.

At the head of the bed, an adult man was half-squatting there,

He held a coarse cloth in his hand and tightly covered half of the other party's neck, and at the same time, he scolded the other party in dialect for why he did stupid things, and so on.

The young man looked towards the spot where the man's hand was holding, only to realize that there seemed to be a thick stream of blood gushing there.

Even if it was a dark gray coarse cloth, it was now dyed crimson.

Even if you can't see it directly, just looking at the amount of bleeding can already make people feel a shock.

From the very beginning, young people have been listening to the conversation between the old woman and the man.

It was only now, from their conversation, that the young man learned that it was the old woman who had paid the so-called tax on the little food she had left, and that she thought that she could no longer live, that she personally stabbed herself in the neck, wanting to give herself a good time.

Knowing this, the young people also remembered that today is the tax payment day that the Xi family will initiate once a month.

But the so-called tax is nothing, and what is the point of saying it?

That can only be said to temporarily stop the Xi family's unprovoked murder knife so that it will not fall on his head.

Other than that, there is no meaning or practical effect.

Let's talk about the so-called payment of taxes, that is, those who have money pay money, and those who have grain pay food.

Open all year round, no credit is allowed, no matter what the circumstances.

In short, if they can't pay it, Xi's family will make trouble in the house of someone who can't afford to pay taxes.

At the very least, they rummaged through the cabinets and smashed the belongings until they found some food and money that could be used as taxes.

In the worst case, start beating people.

In serious cases, some people can even be beaten to the point of disability and die of depression.

No matter how serious it was, the man was beaten to death on the spot.

The old woman did not encounter any of the above special circumstances, but chose to kill herself after obediently handing over the last bit of her own belongings.

This is not an exception, but a norm that can be heard from time to time.

It's just now, when this kind of thing really happens in front of my eyes......

Whether it was the young man who stood still looking at this scene, or the man who was unwilling to hide a little impotent anger, or the girl who was holding back tears outside the door......

It was only when they realized that they really could not accept such a tragedy.

Click, click......

Suddenly, the footsteps of the young man sounded slightly abruptly in the scene.

He turned and walked out the door.

After that, he neither walked back to his house nor paid attention to the girl in front of him.

Instead, he ran out briskly in a certain direction.

He ran at a fast pace, and the girl stared at his soon-to-be-disappear back in the darkness, and quickly realized the anomaly.

But compared to this, she cares more about where the other party is going and what to do.

In this regard, she actually had a rough idea in her mind, but before the results really surfaced, she didn't dare to admit that expectation.

Because in her eyes, that move must have been a failure and meaningless.

And that could well only lead to another tragedy.

Every time I think of this, and then think of the old woman Weng Yuan who is bleeding and dying in the house, the girl's tears can no longer hold back and fall silently.

On the other side, I saw that the young man's speed was getting faster and faster, and in the end, it could be seen that he actually rose into the air, and jumped between the treetops on the way as light as a swallow!

Obviously, this young man is a monk who has already opened up the veins.

But this is something that no one knows about in the whole area.

As for why the youth are hiding this fact, no one knows.

In short, I saw that he kept running towards the outside of the village at such a flying speed.

Until in the midst of this wood, a group of men and horses with torches approached, and the young men stopped there.

After that, the group of people directly opposite him also stopped moving forward, and looked at him, who seemed to be a little unkind.

Among them, an adult man who rode a horse at the forefront could be said to have seen his extraordinaryness from the beginning, and his face showed a slight solemn look of unknown meaning.

After all, it fell from the sky, if it was a mortal who had no cultivation, let alone falling from the sky, even if he could jump half a meter high, he was considered talented, far beyond ordinary people.

The man on the horse had a vigorous face and was wrapped in a coarse cloth of an unclear color.

He was a monk under the command of the Xi family, and in addition to him, there was another cultivator in this team who had already opened up the Yun vein, and he was also an adult man.

On his right was another horse at the front of the group, alongside him.

At this moment, the two of them looked at the young man in front of them, except for the necessary secret vigilance, and soon, it can be seen that the man on the left spoke first: "Who is coming?"

"I'm a villager in Yue'erpo.

Today you have come to collect your taxes, and an old woman has paid you what little food she has left.

Now she is trying to kill herself.

Considering the special situation, can you get back the little thing she handed in?"

When the young man said this, his voice was not high, but it inexplicably and clearly entered the ear holes of everyone on the field, so that people could hear his words in their ears.

In the darkness, the faint light of the fire was reflected weakly on the young man's face, and he could only listen to his voice, but he could not see any change in his countenance.

Speaking of the opposite side of him, hearing this, the man on the left smiled inexplicably, and at the same time, he answered: "Yue'erpo?

When did Yue'erpo produce such a young monk?

And it's so hidden, isn't it plotting a rebellion?"

The young man did not answer, and after that, he just repeated the phrase lukewarmly: "Give that little thing back." ”

Seeing him behave like this, the man who was talking to him was also interested, and he also laughed again with his own words: "Yo?

That would be a pity.

Yue'erpo put all her hopes on you, this kid, and hoped that you would lead their to turn over in the future.

As a result, you can't bear it anymore halfway, you don't know how thick the sky is, and you desperately want to show how heroic you are.

You even found it directly?"

With that, he got off his horse's back and got off the ground.

Facing the young man in front of him, he walked slowly towards the other party.

At the same time, he continued to say to himself: "Alas, it's a pity.

Looks like you're going to have to be dragged out of our group's view today.

Besides, we're not going to dig a hole for you. ”

At last, the man had already walked to the youth.

As the words fell, he could be seen raising and opening a hand.

Next, a slap slapped the young man's head, mixed with a sharp sound of breaking the air.

In the face of this blow, the young man's face still did not show the slightest change, and he did not make any movements.

The people around looked at this scene, and they all subconsciously felt that he had given up resistance or was already frightened by the momentum displayed by the other party and stood in that position.

However, what happened next completely shattered their expectations.

In the dimly lit darkness, the sight they had imagined did not actually happen.

Rather, it was after a small, unknown sound was fleeting.

The hairy man was knocked to the front of the horse behind him, and was resting in front of the horse's legs, lying on his side.

"Give that little thing back. ”

After knocking the man away, the young man remained in his original position, standing motionless.

At the same time, once again, the phrase was repeated lukewarmly.

As for the man who had been knocked away by the youth, he temporarily propped up his upper body with one hand and sat there.

There were no scars or anything unusual on the surface of his body, but he knew it in his heart......

After he was attacked by an attack that was far faster than lightning and even invisible to everyone, including himself, what vicious changes occurred in his body.

Although the blow didn't cause him any pain, the result of the direct knock really surprised him.

He looked at the young man in front of him, his eyes full of disbelief and shock.

Behind him, those little soldiers saw this scene, and immediately showed similar expressions.

If it weren't for the fear of the majesty of these two cultivators, I was afraid that the people behind me would already be talking about it, or laughing or commenting on the man who was knocked down.

On the other side, the man who was knocked to the ground did not hear any noise rising around him.

But for him, this deliberately contrived silence was far more shameful and annoying than the unbridled mockery.

In an instant, he had secretly made up all kinds of evaluations of others in his mind.

"Why did you fall in one move? This is the so-called monk?"

"What kind of garbage? I feel like I'll be able to resist him more than he even if I go up and get beaten, at least I won't end up in such an embarrassing situation!"

"That's what the Xi family has spent a lot of money on cultivating?

Why don't you use that money to raise a few fierce dogs, I think. ”

Words like these kept ringing in his head, making him feel a burst of inexplicable shame!

Immediately afterward, I saw him quickly stand up directly from the ground.

At the same time, his face turned to show a murderous look, and he said to the young man with a threatening tone of indignation: "Boy, I just wanted to say hello to you casually.

I didn't expect you to be so ignorant of what to do, and suddenly attack with such a despicable means as a sneak attack!

If I hadn't reacted quickly and stepped back like this in time, maybe I would have really fallen on your way!

I'm not going to say hello to you anymore!"

As he spoke, he put on a fighting stance, making a look of being ready to attack, and it seemed that he really had a little momentum.

The young man did not show any expression in the face of his behavior, but once again lukewarmly restated the only purpose for which he had come here: "Give back that little thing." ”

"When you're dead, we'll burn you what you want!"

The man spat out viciously again.

After speaking, I saw him rushing directly towards the young man.

Between the opening and closing of the rushing action, there was a burst of sound of tigers and tigers breaking through the sky, which looked very powerful and domineering.

In the meantime, wisps of faint fluorescence can be seen, dancing happily around him.

However, that's it, when he rushed straight to the front of the youth, he was still kicked away by the young man's spinning and charging kick!

And it rolled straight down into the line behind him!
