Chapter 432: Heavenly Storm Island
Qin Mu nodded, and asked about what had happened in the past year or so, as well as the environment he was in now.
Wen Ge also said it 1510, and finally said: "This is the 36 Divine Prefecture in the cultivation realm, and it is also the most chaotic place in the cultivation realm, and there are many masters, you still have to be careful!" ”
"If it was before, I could still tell you about the situation in the Thirty-Six Divine Prefecture, but after so many years, I don't know what has become here, so you should find out for yourself!"
Qin Mu nodded, Yuan Ying closed his eyes, and he who had been in a coma in the thatched house for more than a year finally opened his eyes, fortunately, those eyes were still black, not red and blue.
Qin Mu sat up slowly, glanced at the clothes on his body, and couldn't help revealing a soft color in his eyes, and then glanced at this ordinary and very simple room, and saw his storage bag next to him, quietly placed at the head of the hay-paved bed.
At this moment, two golden rays of light suddenly came from the window, and instantly landed in front of Qin Mu, these were two golden mosquitoes, the size of a baby's fist, they were his two insect kings.
After Qin Mu was rescued by the old man, the pair of insect kings wandered around Qin Mu and were not exposed to the old man until now Qin Mu woke up.
Qin Mu put the insect king in his arms and put away the storage bag as well, then he got up and walked outside, but then he heard some noisy sounds from outside, which made him pause.
At this time, outside the thatched hut, in addition to the old couple, there were five young men in their twenties, and each of them had a haughty and unbeaten expression on their faces, and the exact opposite of their expressions was the respectful, bitter and somewhat frightened expression of the old man.
The old man bowed slightly, holding a few pieces of broken silver in his hands, although it was not much, but for their old couple, it was all the belongings, and now they could only be respectfully handed in, and it was still a little insufficient.
"Venerable Master, we only have so much for this month, and if there are not enough of them, you have good hearts, let's see if next month's harvest will be a little better, and then make up for it!"
The eleven young men in blue robes led by him grabbed a few pieces of broken silver from the old man's hand, threw them in his hands a few times, and sneered: "Old Zhangtou, the money you pay every month is getting smaller and less, I think you will never be able to pay it that day!" ”
The old man could only smile again and again, and said, "No, no, next month I will definitely make up for all the arrears this month!" ”
"Hmph...... Hopefully, as you said, if you can't afford it next month, you'll know what the end will be! With that, the group turned and left.
It wasn't until he watched a few people get on the boat and leave that the smile on the old man's face suddenly disappeared, and he couldn't help but curse: "Relying on yourself as a monk, you know that if you oppress us ordinary people, sooner or later you will be punished!" ”
The old woman sighed lightly: "We are getting older and older, and your body is not as good as day by day, and we will be relieved if we can't pay the money that day!" ”
Hearing this, the old man couldn't help but glare back at her, and said, "What stupid things to say, I'm in good health ......."
Before he finished his words, he saw a young figure walking out of the thatched hut behind the old woman, his eyes couldn't help but be stunned, and then he smiled: "Are you ......awake?"
The old woman also turned around immediately, and saw Qin Mu coming slowly, and a smile appeared on her vicissitudes of life.
Qin Mu smiled slightly, and after coming to the second elder, he bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for taking care of the second elder during this time!" ”
"No, no, no......"
Qin Mu smiled, glanced at the direction where the people left just now, and asked, "Who are those people?" ”
Hearing this, the second elder's face changed at the same time, and then the old man waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's just some people who collect money, don't care!" ”
Qin Mu smiled slightly: "Old man, can you tell me what kind of place this is?" ”
For such a question, the old man did not hide it, and said: "This is the sphere of influence of the Heavenly Storm Continent in the Thirty-six Divine Prefectures, also known as the Heavenly Storm Island, and there are many small South Islands like where we are now under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Storm Continent!" ”
"...... of Tempest Island"
Qin Mu muttered in a low voice and asked again, "What kind of person is the Heavenly Storm Lord?" ”
Hearing this, the two elders immediately became helpless, they were all just ordinary people, they just knew the lord of Skystorm Island, as for who he was, they didn't know, they didn't even know what it looked like.
Seeing their expressions, Qin Mu suddenly felt in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's the first time I've come to this place, and I don't have any accommodation, I wonder if the second elder can let the kid live here for a while?" ”
"Of course...... It's just that we're too simple here, so don't dislike it! ”
"It's okay......"
Qin Mu then said: "The kid has one more thing to ask for, I hope the old gentleman can take me to Tianqi Island to have a look, and buy something by the way!" ”
"This ...... I still have to go fishing, old man, or I won't have anything to eat!" The old man's face changed, and finally he said the helplessness in his heart, he really wanted to be a tour guide for Qin Mu, but life did not allow it, if they didn't go fishing today, then their life might still be able to persevere, but next month's money would not be enough, and he couldn't waste any day.
"Don't worry, you don't have to worry about this matter, since I live here, I will deal with it next time I wait for them to come!"
"Young man, you're a monk, aren't you?"
"Yes......"
The old man was still a little hesitant, but the old woman smiled and said, "Old man, the first time he comes, you can take him around to see it, and you can be familiar with the situation here!" ”
"Alright then......"
Qin Mu smiled slightly, and said to the old woman, "We will be back soon......"
After saying that, he suddenly grabbed the old man's shoulder, and immediately took off into the air and flew quickly towards the sea.
Looking at the direction in which the two left, the old woman's wrinkled face finally showed a smile, she could feel Qin Mu's kindness, which made her feel that in the future, their old couple would not be so bitter anymore.
The Thirty-Six Divine Prefecture is named after the Thirty-six Tiangang, and Tianluo Island is one of them, but it is one of the last few islands, although the ranking among the Thirty-six Shenzhou is not high, but the lord of Tianluo Island is a genuine refining and voiding combination, and there are many masters under his command, at least in the sphere of influence of Tianluo Island, he is the heaven here.
As its name suggests, the lord is a brutal person who rules the common people on all the islands within his sphere of influence, and everyone regardless of gender, old and young, must pay their money regularly, and if they don't pay, they will only be wiped out.
The currency of ordinary people is those gold and silver, which are of little use to the monk, but they can still be exchanged for the currency used by the monk - spirit stones.
In addition to the brutal rule of these ordinary people, even the monks on Tianluo Island, many of them have to pay their share money, but these monks either settle on the island or do business, such as some free monks will not, and of course the strong ones will not.
To put it bluntly, there is no choice for ordinary people, and it depends on the situation for monks, but no matter what, the Lord of Heavenly Storm Island and his forces are the strongest forces in Heavenly Storm State.
Heavenly Storm Island is thousands of miles away, and although it is the lowest existence among the thirty-six divine states, if it is in the original realm, it is equivalent to the territory of the entire Chinese country.
Such an island, for ordinary people living here, even a lifetime can not be walked, Lao Zhangtou belongs to such a person, although he knows about Tianluo Island, but at most he has been to the edge of this island, and has never entered the center of the island at all.
Skystorm City is the largest city on Skystorm Island, and it is also the most prosperous city, where there are ordinary people and all kinds of monks, some are just passers-by, and some settle here.
Qin Mu took the old man to stop outside the Heavenly Storm City, and before he fell, his eyes glanced at a high mountain hundreds of miles away from the Heavenly Storm City, the mountain was high into the clouds, and the top of the mountain was very flat, as if it had been flattened by life.
On the top of the hill there is also a palace of extreme luxury, all golden, shining in the sunlight with a dazzling golden light, majestic and magnificent, and there is a feeling of being above all living beings.
There is only one palace on the top of the mountain, and down the mountain, there are golden buildings sitting on it, as if it is attached to the mountain, because there are many palaces that are shining with gold, but the mountain has become like a golden mountain, shining brightly.
Qin Mu just glanced at it, and then showed a sneer, as a cultivator, not only ravaging those ordinary people, but also using the gold and silver he had scavenged to create such a luxurious residence, it was simply brutal.
Qin Mu took the old man to fall outside the city, and slowly walked towards the city gate, he still didn't know anything about the situation here, it was better not to be too ostentatious.
When they walked to the city gate, they were stopped by the two monks guarding the gate, especially after they saw Qin Mu and the old man's outfits, they all showed disdain, no wonder who made Qin Mu's clothes more or less patched!
"Ordinary people enter the city, one or two silver per person!" Since Qin Mu had restrained his aura, in the eyes of these two people who only had the Innate Realm, he was an ordinary person, and if he were a monk, he would not wear such a shabby outfit at all.
Hearing this, Qin Mu couldn't help frowning, he was very rich in the Origin Realm, but it was useless here, as for things like gold and silver, he had never carried them before, now where to find two taels of silver, let alone the old man.
"Do you have to ask for silver, other things?"
"Spirit stones are better, one spirit stone for you two hillbillies is enough, but unfortunately you have it?" Both guards laughed.
The old man pulled Qin Mu and said, "We still won't go in......"
