Chapter 63: The Mysterious Old Man

Wang Qiang followed Ron into the slums, where he had never been before.

The slums, where the poorest people of the imperial capital live, are no longer good enough to describe the dirty and messy environment. It is inhabited by a large number of fugitives, and various criminal acts are not uncommon. This is a real three-regardless zone, and the army of the imperial capital will not maintain law and order here at all, and here, the safety of your life will not be guaranteed.

But even in this dangerous environment, many people live here, if nothing else, even if this place is dangerous, it is still an urban area, and it is much safer than outside the city.

There are a lot of Warcraft in this world, and if you don't have the strength to dare to live outside the city, it's your luck to live for two weeks. Although the slum is also very dangerous, it is not possible to die at any time, besides, this is the territory of the imperial capital, there are many opportunities, and if you are lucky, you are likely to soar.

After entering the slum, the people around him looked at Wang Qiang with strange eyes, and Wang Qiang felt uncomfortable.

Young women are not visible here at all, and for women, this place is simply hell, and if you come in, you will be eaten to the point that there is no scum left!

Enduring the gaze of others, Wang Qiang followed Ron to a corner of the slum, which was just a simple shed that could not be blocked by the wind and rain, and it looked like it might fall at any time.

Ron walked in first, and Wang Qiang hesitated for a moment and followed.

Inside the shed lay a pale-faced middle-aged man, looking weak.

"Ron, you, who is this?" The middle-aged man wanted to say something, but when he saw Wang Qiang, he immediately asked his son about Wang Qiang's origin.

"This is the kind pastor I met on my way! Ron said excitedly.

"Don't worry, you don't need to take any money, and you don't need anything in return. Wang Qiang was displeased when he saw the suspicious gaze of the middle-aged man.

Without saying anything, Wang Qiang walked up to him and began to chant the third-order healing magic.

"Flash Heals!"

A golden flash emerged from Wang Qiang's hand, and then submerged into the middle-aged man's body.

The man only felt as if his whole body was enveloped, his whole body was warm, and he moaned comfortably.

After the magic ended, Wang Qiang carefully checked his body, and then said, "Basically, there is no problem, then, I will go first." ”

Wang Qiang got up to say goodbye, he didn't want to stay in this place for too long.

"Wait, sir, can you tell me your name? Ron stopped Wang Qiang with tears in his eyes.

"No, it's hard for us to see each other again in the future. Wang Qiang refused his request. To tell the truth, the level difference between the two of them is already very large, Wang Qiang's status will be higher and higher in the future, and Ron will have to do his best even if he wants to get out of the slum, and he may even die directly in the slum.

Wang Qiang left Ron's house, and he had a good memory, so he could still remember the way back. However, this is also because the study of magic expands the brain domain and improves memory a lot.

"Wait, lad. ”

Wang Qiang was about to leave the slum when an old voice stopped him from behind.

"What's the matter?" Wang Qiang turned his head and found that it was an old man with gray hair, but his eyes were very bright, and he didn't have the particularly cloudy feeling of other old people.

"It's nothing, I'm just a little curious, why did you help the Rons?" the old man smiled.

"If you help, you help, what's the reason? I saw that he was pitiful, so I helped him, is there any problem?" Wang Qiang said curiously.

"Of course there is no problem. The old man paused, "But why don't you do it to the end? It is very difficult for the father and son to survive in the slums." ”

"I don't have to do that, right? There are too many poor people in this world, I can't help them! I don't know them well, and besides, I can't protect myself, how can I have the spare time to care about how they are doing?" Wang Qiang felt that the old man in front of him was a little vexatious.

The old man nodded, and then said: "Then have you ever thought that the Ron family saved by you is actually bad people, maybe Ron's father will be punished for doing a lot of evil, and more people will be hurt by saving him." ”

Wang Qiang was stunned, he had never thought of this kind of thing. If that's the case, is it a good thing to do it?

"This... I... Are they really bad people?" Wang Qiang didn't know what to say for a while.

"Hehe, don't worry, of course they're not bad people, at least not bad people now. But what do you do if they're really bad people, or if they become bad people?"

"......" Wang Qiang was silent.

"Then I'm asking a different question, if you knew in advance that they were bad people, would you still save them?" The old man's question was very sharp, and Wang Qiang was upset.

"Who are you!" Wang Qiang asked a little irritably, originally he had just saved a person, and he felt that he had done a good deed and was very happy, but suddenly an old man popped out and asked this and that.

"Who am I? Does it matter? I'm just a nosy old man. The old man's face was always smiling, and his expression was peaceful, which instantly reminded Wang Qiang of the Great Sage of Ans.

Wang Qiang thought silently, and said for a long time: "I just did this to have a clear conscience, killing people needs a reason, saving people, no need! Regardless of whether they are good people or not, I have already saved them, and I don't regret it, isn't this enough?"

After speaking, Wang Qiang turned around and left.

"It's an interesting young man. The old man smiled and said, "I'm so curious, when that time comes, what will you choose?"

"You don't need a reason to save people, you don't need a reason, that's a good thing. After saying that, he disappeared directly in the same place!

Wang Qiang didn't hear the old man's words, otherwise he would definitely drag the old man and let him speak clearly.

......

Wang Qiang returned to the dormitory and didn't think about what the old man said, it was undeniable that the old man's words did have a great impact on him.

Saving people, there are so many philosophical truths in it? Wang Qiang couldn't help but smile bitterly. However, Wang Qiang felt that when he said the last sentence to the old man, his mental strength improved again.

Shaking his head and putting those thoughts behind him, Wang Qiang continued to cultivate. With his own talent, the speed of cultivation is very fast, although he can absorb magic crystals, but his talent can't be wasted like this.

Wang Qiang is very self-aware, he knows that his strength is still far behind, during this time he rarely meets Elena, and his main energy is spent on cultivation, not only for the five-year appointment, but also for himself to be able to better gain a foothold in this world.

"Maybe it's time to meet that old man Anse again. Wang Qiang has a lot of doubts in his heart, and these doubts must be verified by Anse.
