After stepping out of the dwelling and feeling the slightly cool air and the warm sunshine in the sky again, Rowan not only stretched comfortably. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info looking at such a good weather, Rowan smiled and said:

"Sure enough, you shouldn't go out for a walk in such good weather, why are you bored in that room?" After speaking, Rowan walked towards the outside of the Imperial Palace with very brisk steps.

After coming to the outside of the palace, Rowan did not continue to wander around in the imperial capital, but walked directly towards the outskirts of the imperial capital, after all, no matter how much he looked at the imperial capital, he couldn't see any tricks, and Rowan would not waste time on this.

About half an hour later, Luo Wen walked out of the gate of the imperial capital at a slightly faster pace, he found a place where many herbs grew on the road when he first came to the imperial capital, and walked directly there.

Not only was the place where the herbs grew luxuriant, but there was also a small village nearby for Rowan to settle down, so even if he didn't want to go back at noon, he could rest and eat in that village without having to run back to the imperial capital.

However, as he walked towards the place where he was picking herbs, the weather that had been clear and sunny began to darken for some reason, and clouds covered the entire sky, and soon, small pieces of snow fell from the sky.

Looking at the sudden change in the weather, Rowan couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and said in a low voice: "What the hell is going on with this weather, it was still a sunny sky just now, why is it like a light snow now, even if the country of the Cutting Pupil Empire is more biased towards the north, it will not change the weather so much." ”

"Forget it, it's just a little snow anyway, it's not a big problem, let's continue to collect medicine." After saying that, Rowan repacked his mood and moved on.

After about half an hour, Rowan finally came to the place where he had seen a large expanse of herbs growing.

However, at this time, what caught Rowan's eyes was a bare, slightly charred land, and the trees that had grown vigorously like trees had been turned into stumps with their trunks cut off.

The place he had seen was full of birds and flowers, and the place where flowers and plants flourished had become such a bleak scene as an uncultivated wasteland.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Rowan's face instantly became gloomy, and he quickly ran to a tree stump, squatted down and checked the traces on the stump.

After inspecting it, he looked at the ground that had a trace of charred black.

After a few minutes, he slowly shook himself up and said in a deep voice, "This stump has obviously been cut like this in the last few days, but the scorched black marks on this land are obviously much earlier than the time when the tree was cut down. ”

"It is estimated that within two days after I entered the imperial capital, this land was set on fire. But there was such a large cargo missing an entire grove, but there was no rumor in the imperial capital. ”

"This is obviously something done by officials or nobles, these damn fools, so many high-quality and excellent herbs should be burned to ashes by them, it's really hateful." With that, Rowan slammed his fist into the stump.

Under Rowan's punch, the thick and hard stump was like paper paste, and it was scattered and shattered in an instant, and even the roots of the tree buried deep in the ground were directly beaten and sank into the soil again.

After venting a little, Rowan slowly stood up with a calm face, shook his fist slightly, shook off the sawdust on it, and walked straight towards the nearby small village.

A few minutes later, Rowan was at the door of the village. When Rowan and the others passed through this village, although the village was relatively poor, the people were still relatively prosperous, and there were at least dozens of families in the village, large and small.

The people lived in poverty, but they were very harmonious. Rowan has a lot of affection for the village.

But at this time, there were only a few people left in the village, and most of them were old people and children. They sat down beside a small fire in distraction, quietly watching the flames in the fire, without saying a word.

Seeing this scene that also became quite bleak, the anger in Luo Wen's heart surged up in an instant again, but this was in someone's village, and he couldn't vent casually, so after easing his mood a little, Luo Wen walked to the small fire and said:

"Old man, I came here to collect medicine, but after I went, I found that all the places where flowers and plants were flourishing had disappeared, and even the trees had been cut down, can I ask you what is going on?"

However, the old man sitting around the fire still stared blankly at the fire in front of him as if he hadn't heard Rowan speak, and there was no look in his eyes.

After a few seconds of silence, Rowan saw that the old man still didn't speak, so he prepared to ask the old man again.

At this moment, an old man next to him suddenly said: "Okay, don't ask, his son and daughter-in-law were requisitioned by the nobles as a husband and maid not long after they got married, and they were probably never returned, so he became like this as a lonely old man, no matter who asked him, he didn't speak." ”

Hearing the old man's words, Rowan immediately turned to him and asked, "Please old man, can you tell me the ins and outs of this, I want to know what is going on." ”

"Heh, even if I tell you, what can I do, can you still let those who were taken away come back, don't think about it, even if you come back, they may not all be destroyed into something, it's better to just keep a thought, and you won't see their painful appearance before they die." The old man sneered and said slowly.

Listening to the old man's words, Rowan couldn't help but be silent, indeed, even if he was indignant, it was impossible for him to let those herb trees and the people in this village come back.

He couldn't help but think back to the disgusting scene he had seen in the brick house of Arya's house, and a wave of anger instantly welled up in his chest.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, looked at the old man very solemnly and said, "Old man, you can't say this so deadly, maybe I can let those nobles or officials who have done this kind of thing come back at the price they deserve?" ”

"Pay the price? How is it possible, you are not ... Wait a minute.. Pay the price, you say? After hearing Rowan's words, the old man just wanted to laugh, but his expression suddenly froze, as if he had thought of something, and then immediately straightened his expression, and a special light appeared in his eyes, looking at Rowan.

And Rowan did not shy away from looking at the old man, and the firmness in his eyes was directly conveyed to the old man.
