In the middle of the night, there was no sound in the small city except for the occasional light coming from some rooms, Jingchen was confused now, he couldn't stay here at all, he didn't know where to go except for hurrying.

"Forget it, let's get out of here first. Jing Chen muttered in a low voice, fortunately, the Seven Star Chixiao Sword is back, so that he won't go to the desert to find it again.

When he walked to the entrance of the city, Jingchen couldn't help but look back, sighed lightly and left the city.

He took out the map and looked at it, and found that after leaving the Taganla Desert, he was only less than half the way to Fengyun Academy, which was probably the second good news he had gotten in recent times.

Now I can only look for the four of them while walking, and it depends on luck whether we can meet them again.

It's been a while since they've been separated, and they must have been out of the desert too. There is only one end to being caught in the black storm, and that is to die by default, how Jing Chen survived the black storm, no one knows, he himself doesn't know.

Before coming out, I never thought that the road to the academy would be so bumpy, and it seemed that everywhere I went, I could be involved in some disputes, but fortunately, Feng Xuan of the Spirit Sect Realm was by my side, otherwise it was difficult to say whether the two of them could safely walk half the way.

Now that Black Feather is with them, there is no need to think about safety for the time being, and it is himself who should really worry about safety.

Jingchen's next destination was located in the eastern part of the Chasing Wind Continent, and as long as he kept heading east, he could reach Fengyun Academy.

In terms of supplies, there is no need to worry, many things have been prepared when he entered the Taganla Desert, and they are all stored in Yiye Zhiqiu, which is enough for him to use alone for a while.

Taking advantage of the night, Jingchen walked alone on the road to Fengyun Academy.

For half a month, Jingchen has been in a hurry except for resting, and his hard work has paid off, seeing that the distance is shortening little by little, Jingchen is a little nervous.

I don't know how powerful those so-called genius students on the mainland are, judging from Xuan Lin's strength, Jing Chen's seventh-order Yuan Force Realm may not be enough to see.

Just as Jingchen was thinking wildly, the outline of a small town not far away loomed. He's running out of stuff now, and the next town is still some distance away, so it's time to resupply him.

This small city is not big, it is similar to the town when he first met Lu Qian, and there are not many residents, although the sparrows are small, they are all complete, and there are still things such as food that Jingchen wants.

However, when he entered the city, he found that there were very few young people in the streets, mostly old people and women, and there were many homeless people.

He didn't understand what was going on here, and he didn't want to worry about it, so it was the right thing to do when he got his things ready and hit the road.

In the center of the city, in front of a mansion that looked more luxurious, a scrawny old man stood there and kept shouting: "Dog officer, pay back my son's life!"

Several people around him kept driving the old man, and there were several old people who were also old people around him who were also persuading him, although they were persuading, but the expressions on their faces were also very angry.

It seems to be commonplace for people to come and go around and not watch the farce here.

Several family members kept angrily scolding the old man and said, "Old man, don't quarrel here, give you another chance, leave quickly." If the adults are not happy, let alone the gold coins, you won't even be able to save your life!"

Hear the word "adult". A trace of fear flashed in the depths of the old man's eyes, but the voice on his mouth remained undiminished: "Come on, the old man is cheap, he can't live anyway, what's the difference between being beaten to death and starving to death!"

The patience of the family members has long been exhausted, and before the old man finished speaking, a stick hit him, although it was to use Yuan Qi, but the strength of the stick was not small.

Jingchen saw all this in his eyes, although he didn't want to cause trouble, but it was really unbearable to watch an old man being beaten.

A faint flash of thunder flashed, and Jingchen's body suddenly disappeared strangely.

The sticks of the housekeepers did not fall in the air for a long time, and when they looked closely, a pair of immature hands grasped the end of the stick. There was an irresistible force coming from the seemingly weak arm.

The man who raised the stick was stunned for a moment, and he didn't want to pay attention to it after seeing that the person who stopped him was a child, since someone wanted to be this up-and-coming bird, let him do it well, the strength in his hand continued to increase, and a faint Yuan Qi gushed out from the dantian, and the corners of his mouth also raised a trace of arc, as if he was laughing at Jingchen's incompetence.

But as his strength increased, Jing Chen's little hand still held the stick, and no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't shake Jing Chen's thin body, which was only about 1.7 meters.

Jing Chen smiled, the highest strength of this group of family members is only the ninth-order Qi Yuan Realm, with the blessing of Yuan Qi, the strength alone is much greater than these ordinary adults.

With Jingchen's move, the attention of people on the road was quickly attracted to this side, and they glanced at it casually, and found that in addition to gloating, there was more sympathy.

When Jingchen was about to make a move, the old man behind him suddenly grabbed him and whispered, "Little friend, forget it, let's go quickly." ”

Before Jingchen could speak, he was pulled aside by the old man, and those family members seemed to be aware of Jingchen's strength, but they didn't follow up with interest.

The old man pulled Jingchen and left in a hurry, and the onlookers parted unhappily.

After talking, Jingchen probably knew the ins and outs of the matter.

The old man has lived in the city all his life, and originally had a son under his knees, but two years ago, the war in the Heavenly Soul Empire was tight, and most of the young people in the city were taken away, and the old man's son was also among them.

It is understandable that the war is tight and takes some young people into the army, and most people are not disgusted with it, anyway, it can't prevent the war from happening, so it is better to contribute to their own country, and they can get a good salary for them every month, in addition to enough for their family's monthly expenses, there can also be a little surplus.

Every two to three months, his son would ask someone to bring the money back, but since half a year ago, he has never sent the money back, and the old man is not stupid, and there is no other possibility than sacrifice.

The only son is gone, only their old couple is left to rely on each other, and the old man with grief in his heart has no other way but to accept it, and life has to go on.

But after losing their financial resources, the old couple barely survived by relying on some gold coins saved during this time, but the only money left was spent after just half a year.

According to the rules of the Heavenly Soul Empire, after the sacrifice of the warrior, he will give his family a wave of gold coins sufficient to maintain daily expenses, but the old man has been waiting for half a year, waiting, waiting, and waiting, and in the end there is no result.

After hard inquiry, I learned that the money had been included in the pockets of the officials in the city, and the old man went to the officials' mansions many times to ask for it, but he was either scolded or beaten back.

This situation has become commonplace in the city, and in addition to him, there are several lonely old people who have lost their children, and in the end there is no compensation to them.

It's a pity that they don't have the strength and don't know any big names, so they have no choice but to give up, and in the end they can only live on the streets, relying on the handouts of some well-wishers every day to survive.

And the officials of the Heavenly Soul Empire are powerful, and the geographical location of the town is on the edge of the Heavenly Soul Empire, so they are used to being powerful.

"Alas, child, I also know that you are kind, but you don't care about this matter, you are not his opponent, that person has a sixth-order Yuan Force Realm!" the old man sighed and said helplessly. Jingchen was just a teenager, how could he be the opponent of that official.

"Sixth-Order Yuan Force Realm, old man, can the Sixth-Order Yuan Force Realm also become an official in this city?" Jing Chen was a little puzzled, some people from the Sixth Order Yuan Force Realm in other places could only be mixed in the Beast Hunting Group or the Mercenary Group as a member of a good strength, how could it be their turn to come here to be powerful.

"Who said it wasn't, it wasn't his turn in terms of strength and qualifications, but I heard that it was arranged by his family, and I don't know what the specific family is. The old man sighed.

Jing Chen clenched his fists, it was said that in the past, the sixth-order Yuan Force Realm was not too troublesome...

"Old man, isn't there a Qi cultivator here who is more powerful than him?"

"There used to be, but then the powerful people left here, besides, even if they are powerful, they don't dare to mess with others. The old man said helplessly.

"Didn't the people on there come to check it either?" Jingchen then asked.

"No, it's a poor country here, how can anyone find out here. Forget it, little friend, let this matter go for a while, I don't have anything to eat here, I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain you, so you can be wronged, if you want to rest, take a rest here. The old man looked around, and there was nothing left in the house except a few simple pieces of furniture and his wife, both of whom had not eaten for two days.

"Old man, I've got it here. Jingchen said, with a slight wave of his palm, he took out what he was going to eat on the road from Yiye Zhiqiu.

"Little friend, this..."The old man saw that Jingchen took out so many things from nowhere, as if he was playing a trick, and he was a little distracted at the moment, and at the same time, he couldn't see through Jingchen more and more.

He had only heard of storage ornaments, never seen them, and this kind of thing was the most worthless and cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of gold coins, so much money was enough for them to live for a lifetime.

"Grandpa, call all the old people who are in a similar situation to you, and I'll be covered with everything for today. Jingchen said with a smile.

The old man nodded immediately, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, for them, the help of a stranger was already a luxury.

Looking at the back of the old man turning away, Jingchen sighed again. No matter how much the subsidy of the Heavenly Soul Empire is, it is only a few hundred or thousands of gold coins, but such a few gold coins are the hope of their lives.

If the two old people maintain food and clothing every day, they can't even use a silver coin, and a thousand gold coins are enough for them to improve their lives.

After coming to Shenzhou, Jingchen has never been embarrassed in life, the troubles of life are so simple, simple to ordinary firewood, rice, oil and salt can make an old man who is more than old to tears.

At the last auction, Jingchen's entire savings were spent when he bought the Shanhe Society map, and this time the supply was still with the little pocket money that his father gave him when he was in Yangcheng.

Jingchen has the heart to help these hard-working old people, but this kind of thing is too common in the whole world, how can he help by himself?

Not to mention a thousand gold coins, he may not even be able to take out five hundred gold coins now.
