Looking at this black thing, Wang Chong instinctively wanted to refuse.

After all, it's black and doesn't look very good, what if you eat it and your stomach hurts?

But he also knew that he didn't know as much about the world as his parents, and his parents had no doubt about his kindness, so he didn't refuse, but asked: "Dad, mother, can you tell me what this is?" Don't treat me like a child all the time, I know everything, and you hide it from me like this, which makes me a little uncomfortable. ”

Wang Chong's words were extremely calm, and Zhao Dahai and his wife were stunned when they heard it.

I have long felt that my son is precocious than other children, but listening to what he said just now, this is not just precocious, this is simply ripe.

Seeing that his son was so serious, Wei Yan said: "In charge, my son is so smart, just talk to him." ”

"Well, I was worried that you wouldn't understand, but you asked, so I'll tell you about it, this thing can make your spiritual root test better."

"Better? In other words, the level of the spirit root tested will be high? Wang Zhong asked.

"It's worthy of our son, just a little bit, this thing is called spiritual root ash, soaked in water, it can make people's spiritual roots better, many children just ate this thing, and they have measured a good spiritual root." Zhao Dahai explained.

Wang Zhong looked down at the pile of black powder, and there was no fluctuation in his heart.

The original owner died at the age of twenty-one, which shows that this spiritual root ash has no effect at all.

But, he still has to drink this thing, it's better than not helping at all.

After drinking, Wang Zhong did not have any abnormalities.

Wei Yan then packed up his things and sighed: "Fortunately, Butcher Zhang's second son is still young, otherwise I am afraid he would have been sent out of the city." ”

"Isn't it, but Lao Lin's nephew, wasn't he tested to level 3 before, and he is exactly fifteen years old this year."

"Isn't that ......" Wei Yan's face turned pale.

"Yes, the guide team that was sent to the mass grave, I just left today, there is no way, if the things in that place come over, it will be very troublesome, someone must do this." Zhao Dahai sighed: "It's really pitiful." ”

"Dad, are you saying that those with a low level of spiritual roots are going to be sent out of the city?" Wang Zhong asked.

"Of course, those people don't live long, and they must make some contributions to the people in the city before they die, otherwise although there are masters in the city, if there are too many evil things, it will be very troublesome."

The king's heart sank, and his spiritual root should also be weak, doesn't this mean that he will also be sent out of the city at that time?

"Lao Lin's nephew is really unlucky, he didn't send it to other places, and he was actually sent to a mass grave." Wei Yan said with emotion.

"That place, it's basically going to die, didn't there be a guide team last year, but they didn't come back, and they couldn't even find the body."

"That's better than Gao Laozhuang, wasn't a guide team found in Gao Laozhuang before, they were all tied up and sucked up blood, it is said that they watched themselves die of being sucked dry blood little by little, that is even worse."

"Don't talk about it, the kid is here, it freaks him out......"

Zhao Dahai said, glancing at Wang Chong.

Wang Zhong consciously pretended to be asleep on the bed, as if he hadn't heard their conversation.

"Whew...... Fortunately, his son slept, otherwise knowing about these dead people would have left him a psychological shadow. Zhao Dahai reminded.

"Just spoil him, what if you spoil him?" Wei Yan slightly blamed.

"Spoil it, spoil it, this world is not a human life, live carefully every day, die at every turn, hey, our son, don't ask him to be rich and rich, just ask him to live this life in peace......"

Listening to the conversation between his parents, Wang Chong didn't speak, his heart was warm, and at the same time, he silently absorbed this knowledge in his heart.

From their conversation, he learned that it was really dangerous outside of Snow City.

There are mass graves around, Gao Laozhuang, just listening to what is happening in these places already makes him creepy.

The group disappeared en masse, and the entire team was drained of blood.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Dahai and Wei Yan continued to talk, but what they said was trivial things, and Wang Chong gradually fell asleep.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, the end of the year came.

This year, Wang Chong was four years old, and his so-called fiancée heard that she was going to measure the spiritual root.

It stands to reason that it is okay to measure the spirit root when it is five years old, but some rich and noble families will give some silver and secretly let their children age the spirit root later.

Because there is an unwritten rule among the people, it is said that the later the child measures the spiritual root, the higher the level of the spiritual root.

"Xiao Dong, Lin Wu, this kid is going to measure the spiritual root today, but you have decided to kiss the doll, do you want to see it?" Early in the morning, Zhao Dahai hugged Wang Zhong and smiled.

"Of course." When Wang Chong heard this, he was in the middle of it.

"I heard Lao Lin say that this time he gave the tester one hundred and fifty taels of silver, and he reluctantly let Lin Wu take the test at the age of seven, the price is really getting more and more expensive, didn't he say that it was only one hundred taels before."

Wei Yan took the clothes and chattered while putting them on for Wang Chong.

"The appetite has grown, there is no way, but the tester is quite polite, and the others have given money, and they can only drag it to the age of six to take the test, so that Lin Wu, the child, can be dragged to the age of seven, which is already good." Zhao Dahai explained: "Change the child's clothes, let's go over early, Lao Lin is probably waiting for us." ”

"Hmm."

These days, Wang Zhong has learned a lot.

Generally speaking, the most important thing for people in this world is not money, not power, but spiritual roots.

The importance of the spiritual root here is even more important than the college entrance examination, because it can directly affect a child who is about five years old for a lifetime.

The higher the spiritual root, the longer the child lives, and the longer he lives, the better the future can be.

For example, Zhao Dahai and Wei Yan, when they were young, their spiritual roots were both level 7, which means that they can live to be at least seventy years old.

Of course, this refers to living to be over 70 years old, without accidents.

And the low spiritual root means that the child will not live long.

For example, the two children of Butcher Zhang's family have first-level spiritual roots, which means that they will live to be ten years old at most.

Wang Chong didn't know why, obviously the children were not sick, but as soon as Shouyuan arrived, the children would really die.

And it is said that he looked very miserable when he died, although he had never seen it, but after his mother Wei Yan saw it once, he hadn't eaten for several days.

According to the analysis of Zhongwang Chong, the first level of the spiritual root lives to the age of ten, then the second, third, and fourth levels should correspond to the age of twenty, thirty, and forty respectively, and so on.

Some second- and third-level people have an embarrassing lifespan, and they all reach their longevity when they are young and middle-aged, which is very miserable.

The three of them went out together, and many people met Zhao Dahai along the way and greeted them cordially.

Looking at the places where these people went, it was obvious that they were all walking towards the large square in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

Wang Chong had been to the market once before, and the place was very large, and it was guarded by soldiers during the day.

"Lao Lin." Finally came to the door of a shop called Lin's cloth, and Zhao Dahai, who was far away, greeted him.

Lin Wu was being carried by Lao Lin, and when he saw Zhao Dahai coming over, he smiled and said, "I'm here, I'm waiting for you, let's go." ”

With that, Lin Zhou put Lin Wu down.

Lin Wu looked at Wang Zhong curiously, and said in a milky voice: "It's so high, little brother." ”

"Haha, Lin Wu, this is your future father-in-law." Lin Zhou said with a smile.

Lin Wu muttered: "I don't want it, he's too young." ”
