Ji Chuan picked up the little beggar who fell to the ground, and was about to say something to him.

But this little beggar shook off Ji Chuan's hand in a daze, and didn't say any words of thanks to Ji Chuan, and ran away in the distance with a little staggering.

Ji Chuan was slightly stunned.

At this time, an old man in a robe who was passing by next to him, saw this scene, pointed to his head, and sighed: "This son is not strange, these little toads, it's not very clear here......"

"What does that mean?" Ji Chuan frowned and asked.

"Childe is from another city?" Seeing Ji Chuan's puzzled expression, the old man asked again.

"The kid is indeed not a person from the burial ridge, and I ask the old gentleman to explain his doubts." Kikawa said politely.

"In this kind of place, there is still a noble son?" The old man muttered, sighed, and slowly explained the reason: "No wonder...... We are here next to the source land, and the source land is shrouded in a thick yin qi, Childe knows this, right? ”

Ji Chuan nodded.

The so-called Yellow Spring is dead, that is the monk's statement.

Among these mortals, they all call the Yellow Spring's dead qi yin qi.

"It seems that these yin qi only exist in that source land, but in fact, a small part of it has infiltrated our land." The old man said again.

"That's true." Kikawa agreed.

How are the veins formed?

Isn't it because of these yellow springs that the dead air seeps in.

The old man sighed again, "These yin qi are really things.

Because of the existence of Yin Qi, the people who live in this land are more or less eroded by Yin Qi.

This also leads to the fact that the women here have an extremely high chance of giving birth to monster children. ”

"Monster kids?" Ji Chuan was stunned.

Lu Qingshan, who was on the side, almost understood what the old man said.

In layman's terms, it is this land that seems to be contaminated by nuclear radiation, so the aberration rate of children born here is extremely high.

"Yes, out of ten babies, almost three or four will be ugly-looking, blue-skinned monster children, because they look like toads, so these monster babies are also called toads." The old man then explained.

"However, according to what the old gentleman said, the probability of the 'toad' appearing is so great, why do I see so many pedestrians on the street, all of them are people who look the same, and that little beggar just now is the 'toad' that Mr. said?" Ji Chuan was puzzled.

"Because few of those little toads will grow to this size." The old man's eyes flashed with a little unbearability.

"Is it because there is a longevity limit?" Ji Chuan's heart tightened.

"It should be that the parents who gave birth to toads are not ready to want these 'toads', but will abandon them, or even drown them with their own hands." Lu Qingshan interjected at this time.

Through the old man's words and expression, as well as the appearance of the little beggar just now, he roughly guessed the truth behind it.

"Iniquity...... It's true that you said it for such a reason," the old man sighed for a long time, and then pointed to Ji Chuan and said: "But what this son said is actually right, these 'toads' are in extremely poor physical condition, and they are stupid and stupid, like dementia, even if there are soft-hearted parents who can't bear to abandon them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to raise them as adults." ”

Ji Chuan's expression was complicated, and there was anger in his heart, but more helplessness.

The abandonment of their children by these mortals may seem cruel, but there are also unavoidable reasons.

Raising children to prevent old age is a concept that has been passed down from generation to generation.

A child who looks so ugly that it is almost impossible for him to grow up.

A child who is destined to not be able to provide for them in old age.

For these mortals who are struggling to survive, there is no better choice than to abandon the way.

What's more, these ugly 'toads' like demented children, even if they are raised by their soft-hearted parents, after their fathers and mothers pass away, won't the 'toads' who have no ability to stand on their own starve to death?

It's an unsolvable problem.

In this world, the environment is like this.

Ji Chuan has no reason to comment too much or be indignant about this.

No matter how despicable, everyone has the right to live.

It's just that Ji Chuan's heart is sullen.

The same is true for Lu Qingshan.

For this kind of thing, with his coming from modern thought, he should have been more open than Ji Chuan.

After all, even in modern times, when medical conditions are developed, it is not uncommon for children to choose to abandon their children because they have disabilities or incurable diseases.

In a world where the people's wisdom is not yet civilized and the ideology is relatively feudal and backward, what can we demand?

But no matter how he can figure it out, the discomfort in his heart is just sitting there, and it is not so easy to get rid of it.

I don't know the source of this feeling, but it's like a fish in my throat.

Perhaps only empathy can explain it.

Just like the evaluation of Lu Qingshan when the Sect Master of Shanhai Pavilion passed the Guiru Sutra to Lu Qingshan.

Lu Qingshan, he was originally a monk with great empathy!

"Fortunately, there is Qiu Zhenren, who has adopted many 'toads' who were abandoned by his biological father and mother, and the little beggar you saw just now should be the 'toad' adopted by Qiu Zhenren." At this time, the old man sighed again.

"Autumn real people?" Ji Chuan's eyes froze.

"A very young monk, a real person, out of kindness adopted many toads who had been abandoned by their parents.

Even later, after giving birth to a 'toad', some people would personally send it to Qiu Zhenren, asking Qiu Zhenren to adopt," the old man sighed, "Good people, I hope Qiu Zhenren can succeed."

People like Qiu Zhenren should become immortals. ”

It's just that the old man of the mortal doesn't know the so-called difference in the rank of the monk, and he doesn't know that in the world of the monk, the only one who can be called an immortal is the sword immortal.

But in his thoughts, this Qiu Zhenren is not much different from an immortal.

"Sir, can you tell me where this Qiu Zhenren lives?" Ji Chuan said to the old gentleman.

The old gentleman didn't think much about it, so he told Ji Chuan in detail.

"Senior brother, let's go see those children." After asking for the specific address, Ji Chuan suddenly turned his head to Lu Qingshandao.

Lu Qingshan nodded slightly, and had no opinion.

........

According to what the old man pointed out, Lu Qingshan and Ji Chuan walked for several miles, until they reached the entrance of the town, an extremely dilapidated area, and finally saw the 'toad hole' in the old man's mouth.

The two of them froze, and saw a dozen thatched huts beside a dirty stream, and there were flowers and plants on the front and back of the thatched huts, which seemed to be a peaceful scene.

It's just that in the open space in front of the hut, there are dozens of strange-shaped 'toads' around.

These 'toads' are not very old, the small ones seem to have just walked, and the big ones look like they are ten years old.

But without exception, they are all ugly, all of them have blue and black skin, and there are mosses or pus on them, and from a distance, they really look a little like a toad.

These ugly 'toads' are clustered together at this time.

Lu Qingshan stood not far away and looked over.

The 'toads' revolve around a woman who looks a little weak.

The woman, dressed in a sackcloth robe, looked like a peasant woman, with her back to them, and waited on a stove in front of her.

Above the stove was a huge medicine stove, and some kind of medicine was boiling.

A faint aura came from it and floated to Lu Qingshan's side.

The medicine brewed in the medicine furnace turned out to be a precious elixir containing aura!

This woman is supposed to be the Qiu Zhenren mentioned by the old gentleman, but I didn't expect it to be a female cultivator.

When Lu Qingshan thought like this.

At this moment, the woman suddenly turned around, and her eyes inadvertently met Ji Chuan, who was standing here.

Both of them were shocked, and Lu Qingshan was also a little surprised in his heart.

This Qiu Zhenren is actually ...... Autumn Shiyin!

In just one day, they met three times, but Qiu Shiyin brought them three different perceptions.

It's hard to say.
