Chapter 121: The Sorrow of Centralization

The black thin old man suddenly had fine eyes in his eyes, his heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly grabbed it, his black hands were as dry as chicken paws, and they were very dirty, and he immediately left five black handprints after grabbing the steamed buns.

But he didn't care, and hurriedly broke one open and sent it to the hand named Ergou and Niva, the pair of black children grabbed the steamed bun and stuffed it directly into their mouths without even thinking about it.

Swallowing desperately, Ling Yun was surprised by this gobbling appearance, and judged that the two children should be very hungry.

"A poor mountain village, or a poor family?" Ling Yun couldn't make a judgment now, and secretly wondered in his heart.

"Thank you, two little benefactors. The old man hurriedly said, but there was not much gratitude in his eyes, hunger and poverty can change a person's will, and when a limit is reached, they may always have only evil in their hearts, and lose goodness.

"You're welcome, may I ask the old man what kind of place is this?" Ling Yun asked politely, he didn't pay too much attention to it, after all, it was just a meeting in Pingshui, and it didn't matter if this old man was grateful to him or not.

"This is Skeleton Dragon Village, hundreds of kilometers further ahead is Shenlong Town!" The old man looked at Ling Yun and Shan Haizi, and hurriedly said: "The two little engongs are coming to us for the first time, why don't you go to the little old man's house to drink a bowl of water and rest?"

Shan Haizi looked at Ling Yun, and Ling Yun carefully sensed and found that although this old man had a trace of power running in his body, he was almost no different from ordinary people, so even if there were some evil intentions, it was not enough to hurt the two of them.

"There are no masters in the village, it should be fine!" The voice of the thirteen black cats sounded in Ling Yun's mind.

The thirteen black cats have not spoken to themselves for a long time, after all, there is a Tianhai Storm in Tianhai Academy, and there is a Great Zhou Emperor in Luoyang City, and their strength is likely to discover the existence of the thirteen black cats.

Therefore, the Thirteen Black Cats have never dared to talk to Ling Yun easily, but after entering this otherworldly space, at least the Thirteen Black Cats are not afraid of anything here.

"Let's go!" Ling Yun nodded.

The black and thin old man stopped looking for food, and took his two children, Ling Yun and Shan Haizi, and headed towards the Skeleton Dragon Village.

Along the way, Ling Yun and Shan Haizi found that the village was indeed extremely barren, and many people walked towards the mountain with various tools, probably like the old man, hoping to find some edible bark and grass roots in the mountain.

This world... It turned out to be like this, Ling Yun couldn't help but sigh sadly.

Coming to the entrance of the village, Ling Yun saw several skinny old men lying under the trees on the side of the road, opened his eyes weakly, and raised his hand gently after seeing Ling Yun and Shan Haizi.

As if trying to beg for something to eat.

Shan Haizi's kindness was overflowing and wanted to help them, but Ling Yun raised his hand to hold him, and this move was also discovered by the black and thin old man, but he was still silent and led the two into the village.

Shan Haizi wanted to save people, but Ling Yun stopped her, making her a little depressed, but she didn't go against Ling Yun's intentions.

This is a strange world, and before he has an absolute understanding of this place, Ling Yun understands that making any proposition is likely to bring him countless troubles.

Shan Haizi is also very smart, and after being stopped by Ling Yun, he already understood everything, and the two followed the old man into the Skull Dragon Village.

Skull Dragon Village is a very large village, after the thirteen black cats perceive and judge and transmit the sound to Ling Yun, he already knows that there are at least tens of thousands of people in this village, but most of them are very poor, and many people are about to starve to death along the way, Ling Yun sees everything in his eyes, but he doesn't do anything.

When he came to the old man's house, his house was dilapidated, and there were only two small rooms, one of which belonged to the old man and the dog, and the other was the room where the little girl Niva had already been in her mother's room.

As for where the children's father went, it was unknown, and it was inconvenient for Ling Yun to ask.

Ling Yun could feel that the little girl's mother was already extremely difficult to breathe, and her body was extremely weak.

Shanhaizi stepped forward, handed a piece of bread to Xiao Niva and said, "Give it to your mother!"

Niva looked very eager to eat, but she walked into the room with the dough cake, in fact, her mother was not seriously ill, but she was so hungry that her whole body had begun to collapse, and after eating and drinking some water, she had begun to recover.

"Thank you two benefactors. The old man said hurriedly.

Ling Yun just nodded and said, "Why is this village so barren?" He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, looking around the room, he didn't find anything valuable, not even food and food.

The old man sighed and said, "It's not our Skeleton Dragon Village that is barren, but the entire Shenlong Town, and we haven't been to any farther places, so I don't know if it's better there."

"The land here is very difficult to grow food, and the yield is very low, there is only one way to get our village out of the current situation, and that is to produce a knight warrior in the village!" the old man invited Ling Yun and Shan Haizi to sit on a broken bench, and then said.

"I want to hear about it!" Ling Yun continued.

The old man didn't speak, but stared at Ling Yun's hand.

Ling Yun was so smart, how could he not know what this old man was thinking, so he took out a few more pieces of dough from his arms, as for the stored meat and other things, he didn't plan to take them out.

"A knight warrior is also a congenital realm warrior, and every village will do its best to cultivate a genius, hoping that he can become a knight warrior one day, and then join the imperial army, so that he can get a certain reward and a good land fief, only in this way can he get rid of his current fate. The old man continued, with a hint of yearning in his eyes.

Ling Yun nodded, in this form of them, they have the meaning of a person who has attained the Dao Chicken Dog to ascend to heaven, but it is not to ascend to heaven, but to get rid of the current state of poverty.

"Raise the strength of the whole village?" Shan Haizi looked at the old man.

"Not bad!"

Ling Yun smiled slightly, and said, "It seems that the things produced in the village are probably able to maintain the normal consumption of everyone in the village, but in order to cultivate this genius, most of the villagers are so barren and destitute, right?"

As long as there is centralization, there will be wealth inequality, and there will be a difference between the poor and the rich, so this is not surprising in Ling Yun's opinion.

The old man nodded slightly, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

"In that case, why don't you give up on cultivating geniuses?" Ling Yun then asked, even though he knew that this kind of centralized village was unlikely to be like this, Ling Yun was still puzzled.
