"Alas!" The old hunter waved his hand and said very depressedly: "Don't mention it, after the death of my son and daughter-in-law, I left a grandson who was only eight years old, and followed our old couple to depend on each other, but two months ago, when my wife and I took him to the town to catch the market, he was seen by the housekeeper of the rich man's family, and forced the child to be a scholar in the Tang family!"

"Originally, this is a good thing, the child went to a big family, can read, see the world, but in this way, we two old, it will be difficult to reunite with the grandson, the housekeeper said okay, every other month, the grandson will come back to visit us, the first few months the grandson came back as scheduled, but in the last two months, the grandson has never come back! My wife and I are anxious! I don't know what happened to the grandson. ”

When the old hunter said this, the old woman on the side, thinking of her grandson, was already teary-eyed.

So that's what happened!

Hearing this, I was a little stunned, so I gently comforted a few words. I thought to myself, when I have a chance, I will go to the town and help the old couple inquire about their grandchildren.

After chatting for a while, I said goodbye to the old couple.

I was in a very happy mood when I set off again this time, and I didn't release the Golden Winged Roc, so I walked towards the town that the old hunter said.

Ten minutes later, I walked through a forest, and I saw a small town in front of me, the town is not big, only 100 households, an official road passes through the middle, surrounded by the surrounding mountains and forests, it seems to be very quiet, next to the official road, there are several shops, a tavern.

When I saw the tavern, I thought about resting first, anyway, the Valley of Eagle Sorrow was not far away.

But when I entered the town, I saw strangers, busy people in the shops on both sides of the official road, and they all looked at it curiously, and I didn't care, and went straight to the tavern!

Because of the remote location, although this tavern is clean, but there are few people, I found a window position on the second floor, asked for a pot of wine, two plates of side dishes, ready to eat, and then ask for a room to rest, and then go to the Valley of Eagle Sorrow.

That is, in five or six minutes, the wine and food were served, although it was not a mountain delicacy, but it looked like it was full of color and flavor, I poured a glass of wine, and suddenly thought of something, so I stopped the shop Xiaoer who was about to leave.

When the shopkeeper heard me call him, he looked at me with a smile on his face: "What else does the guest officer command?"

"I heard that there is a rich man in this town, I want to ask him about his situation!" At this moment, thinking of the old couple on the mountain, I felt a little pitiful, so I wanted to help them inquire about their grandson.

However, I didn't expect that as soon as I mentioned the word Tang Rich Master, the shopkeeper's face changed, and he shook his head at me again and again, and then he was about to turn around and leave.

Syllable!

Seeing his reaction, I frowned secretly, and without thinking, I took out a gold ingot from my body, slapped it on the table, looked at him and said, "As long as you tell me, this gold is yours!"

Suddenly, seeing the eyes of the little two people in the gold ingot shop, he swallowed his saliva, looked at no one on the left and right, quickly put away the gold ingot, and told me about the situation of the rich man's house.

I learned from the mouth of the shopkeeper that the rich man of Tang is a big family in the town, he is very rich, has dozens of acres of fertile land, and is also a tyrant in the town, there are dozens of thugs in the family, and he often does some things that bully men and women.

As for the grandson of the old hunter, he did become a scholar for the rich Tang family, but the situation is not as simple as I imagined!

The rich man of Tang has an only son, named Tang Xin, is a living second lord, only sixteen years old this year, he is indeed arrogant and domineering, the rich man of Tang specially invited a teacher to teach him to read, but he has no interest, and fantasizes all day long that he can become a powerful cultivator.

Although all continents now advocate the strength of cultivators, but for ordinary people, being able to become a cultivator is still an unattainable thing, you know, the Holy Pill alone is not something that ordinary people can get, as for this rich man of Tang, although he has some financial resources, but he is only in this small place, and when he arrives in the capital, compared to those real magnates, he is not even touched.

So when the shopkeeper said that Tang Xin, I want to become a cultivator, and I suddenly sneered to myself. Thinking in my mind: Such a person will also bully and bully the poor people, and if he really meets a cultivator, he is afraid that he will be like a dog.

Scolding coldly in my heart, I continued to listen!

At this time, the shopkeeper also wiped the sweat on his face and talked about Tang Xin's scholar!

Because of his resistance to reading, Tang Xin didn't dare to contradict Mr. Teach, so he could spread his anger on the people around him, so his scholars were miserable, Tang Xin was unhappy, he beat and scolded them, those scholars were all children of poor families in the town, where he could withstand his destruction, and he was killed several times in just a few months! And the grandson of the old hunter couple was forcibly snatched from the old hunter couple on the street by them after Tang Xin was killed by him!

When it came to the end, the shopkeeper looked at me with a jealous face: "Guest officer, I can only tell you so much, the Tang family has a lot of power here, I don't dare to offend them!"

I nodded, motioned for the shopkeeper to leave, and drank alone.

Speaking of which, this kind of thing like what Dian Xiaoer said should be common at the bottom of the poor people in the Xuanzi Continent, so although I feel angry in my heart, I also know that this situation, relying on my own strength, cannot be changed.

So I can only pray that the grandson of the old hunter couple can be clever and not be beaten to death like the few scholars before Tang Xin.

After drinking alone for a while, I asked for a room, and I rested on the bed with my eyes closed for a while.

I don't know how long it took, but in a daze, I heard a commotion on the street outside the tavern!

I opened my eyes vigilantly, turned over, and heard the sound of the old man crying in the midst of the noise.

I frowned, and walked out quickly, standing in the hallway, looking into the distance!

I saw the door of a large family more than a hundred meters away, for a group of people, a young man in a brocade robe, standing there domineeringly, scolding something, behind him, there were several burly men, wearing uniform nursing clothes.

On the ground in front of them, an old man was half-lying there, covered with dust, with a clear footprint on his chest, the old man's face was pale and full of grief and indignation, and behind him, an old woman knelt on the ground, crying and crying for the earth.

"My poor grandson..."

At this moment, there were many people around them, but they were all watching from a distance, and it was obvious that the brocade-robed young man was very jealous, standing there one by one, shaking his head and sighing.

"Young Master Ben has already told you that your grandson is dead! I didn't harm him, nor did I kill him, it was his bad luck!"

At this time, the soaked young man looked coldly at the old couple in front of him, with an unruly coldness on his face, and said without the slightest emotion, when he said these words, his eyes looked at the sky arrogantly, obviously not treating the old couple in front of him as human beings! It seemed that in his eyes, the death of a person was as simple as the death of an animal.

"You said he was dead! What about the corpse, you want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you die, you give him back to me!"

"You return my grandson..."

As soon as the brocade-robed young man's words fell, the old man who was lying there struggled to stand up, screaming very sadly, and at the same time, the old woman also cried and threw herself towards the brocade-robed young man, shouting extremely sadly.

However, before the old woman could get closer, the two big men behind the brocade-robed young man raised their feet and kicked the two old men.

"What's the matter, you two old things are still energetic, right, Young Master Ben said that the kid is dead, you are endless, let me tell you, your grandson has been in our Tang family for a few months, eating my family's and wearing my family, I didn't let you take the money, it's good!
