Cangsu nodded slightly, and was silent for a moment, as if considering the words.

Then, in a desolate tone, he said: "My name is Cangsu, I was born in a peasant family, and I was originally the son of a peasant family. ”

"When I was five or six years old, I started working. My main job is to clean up horse manure. We have a short-legged pony at home, which we mainly use to pull plows. ”

"Once, when I was cleaning up horse manure, the horse suddenly got angry and kicked me with its hind hooves. I fell headlong into the feces and nearly suffocated to death. Although I was lucky to be saved, such a close encounter with death filled my young heart with fear, and I could not let go of it for a long time. ”

"I became very timid and afraid of any kind of horse, even anything similar in shape. I didn't even dare to approach the stables. My parents arranged for me to do other work, and I also cowered, and I had to hide at the slightest disturbance. ”

"Naturally, I was ridiculed and alienated by my playmates, disgusted by my parents, and everyone in the village was not optimistic about my future. ”

"It was a long time before I realized that my fear might not be the fear of horses, but the fear of life as a farmer itself. ”

"Shame makes me lonely, and loneliness makes me think. The gift of fate was bitter and then sweet, and I was afraid that I would live my life as a farmer. ”

"Luck has struck. When I was eight years old, I saw the dawn of my destiny. A priest from the Horse God sect came to our village and wanted to build a church. There is no church in the village, and the whole village wants to have a priest treat them when they are sick. Therefore, the villagers organized themselves and built a horse god church with gratuitous status priests. Of all the volunteers, I was the hardest working one. I tried my best to please the priest and desperately showed my faith in the horse god in order to win the pastor's favor. ”

"The pastor would love children my age. In the end of a day's work, he would gather more than a dozen children, including me, and teach us arithmetic, writing, and other knowledge. ”

"When spring turned to autumn, when the church was successfully built, there was an announcement among the pastors. ”

He wanted to select a few of the volunteers to become co-workers. There are even two children who are recruited to become probationary pastors. ”

"No one is stupid, and the villagers flock to it. The status of the clergy was much higher than that of the peasants. And families with school-age children are even more crazy. ”

"I really wanted to be a trainee pastor, and I knew it might be the only chance in my life to change my life, even at the cost of my life!"

"The competition is fierce. ”

"With hard work and hard work, I stayed until the final selection. There were four of them, but only two probationary pastors were admitted. The other three are all wealthy families in the village, and one of them is the village head. In order to increase hope, they used their power and wealth to oppress my family, force my parents, and make me throw in the towel. ”

"My family was so ostracized that it was almost impossible to survive, and every day became an ordeal. My parents persuaded me, but of course I refused, almost breaking with them. ”

"I went to the final assessment with the attitude of not being able to do it. And yet I failed. ”

"The shadow of my childhood still hangs over me, and I fear horses. For the horse god, I only have fear, not love. ”

"I couldn't trust Him, even if I tried my best. ”

"The priest of the horse god is wise and wise, but also ruthless. Even though I knelt on the ground and begged him, he eliminated me. ”

"I was so disappointed that my whole life was bleak and irrelevant. That evening, I walked down the street in despair, surrounded by the villagers' taunts about me. I don't know how to get home, I can't eat anything at all. ”

"For a period of time, my father scolded me, and my mother scolded me for being too wrong. Although my family is a free man, because my father had a serious illness, the family conditions were very poor, and I was forced to cultivate other people's farmland and pay rent. This is actually no different from serfdom. However, because of this, none of the villagers rented the surplus land to us. ”

"To punish me, my parents gave me a heavy amount of labor. Every day, I slept on the haystack with a body that was almost falling apart. ”

"Punishment and defeat didn't make me throw in the towel, and mockery and exclusion didn't make me despair. I became more and more unwilling, and this unwillingness gradually turned into a kind of resentment. Although I was depressed for many days, I quickly became refreshed. The biggest way I try to do this is by reviewing what I've learned from pastors. ”

"I only have free time at night. During the day, I have to get up very early. If I couldn't finish the work my parents gave me, I wouldn't even have a piece of brown bread. ”

"Even though I was very tired every day, I never gave up studying at night. I memorized what the pastor had taught me, and it was deeply etched in my heart. To this day, I remember every bit of this knowledge very clearly. I cherish them and love them like the hope of my life. They are my rebellion against my fate!"

"One night, Pastor Ma Shen quietly came to the haystack and woke me up from my sleep. ”

I was amazed and delighted, and thought to myself, if there was a turning point? I immediately fell on my knees and swore aloud to the priest that I would do my best to believe in the god of horses, and to remove all fears from the depths of my heart. ”

But the priest shook his head, saying, "The horse god does not require faith." He found me because he had discovered the state of my life and had been secretly observing me for some time. He was impressed by my desperate efforts and thirst for knowledge. ”

"Pastor Ma Shen gave me a whole new choice. If I were his slave, he would teach me what I wanted, and what the future would hold was up to me. ”

"I convinced my parents to sell myself. ”

"Of course, the main thing is that Pastor Ma Shen spent a lot of money to buy me. ”

"The pastor didn't deceive me and even treated me much better than I had imagined. He even kept the deal secret and asked me to be a servant in the church. I served the pastor with all my heart and soul, and he imparted valuable knowledge to me. I learned more about arithmetic, literature, astronomy, and geography. ”

"Of all the gains, I think the most precious thing is Pastor Mashen's curiosity and assiduous inquiry. This attitude has influenced me all my life. ”

At this, Ayonsu paused. The long narrative made him a little breathless.

"The competition of faith is sometimes fiercer than war. The horse god originated in the wilderness continent and is a god of the beast tribe's beliefs. On the Shengming Continent, His influence is too small. Therefore, when the Life Sect spread, the belief of the horse god was immediately shaken and quickly collapsed, without the slightest competitive force. ”

"Pastor Horse God was forced away. Before leaving, he released me as a slave and declared me free. And, he advised me to continue my studies. ”

"I went to Silver Bridge College and took the exam. Pastor Ma Shen's professor gave me a solid academic foundation, so I successfully passed the examination and became a very poor student in the college. Three years later, I graduated from the college and became a scholar. ”

"I taught at Silverbridge Academy for three years, and then I became the steward of a minor nobleman thanks to the college's connections. ”

"Later, I transferred a number of nobles to small positions in the administration of the territory. ”

"I'm not a nobleman, nor am I a servant that nobles have cultivated since childhood, and more importantly, I don't have the qualifications to practice. For these reasons, I have been repeatedly despised and excluded, and my position has never been high. ”

"After five years, an opportunity presented me. ”

"There was a riot in a village, and the tax collector was killed. The chief of taxation deceived his superiors and subordinates, fearing that the lord would find out, so he offered a large reward for those who could successfully collect taxes. ”

"I knew the villagers so well that I saw it as an opportunity and volunteered. ”

"I was hanged, beaten, locked in a cell, tortured. ”

"Just when they were about to kill me, they asked me what my last words were. ”

I laughed, just shook my head and didn't speak. ”

"This left the villagers confused. ”

"I told them that I was their friend and that there had never been hostility. I'm here to save them. If they obey and pay their taxes, then the governor acts as if nothing happened. If they don't want to, then there will be knights who come and kill them. ”

The villagers were afraid, knowing that the whole village would not be able to resist the knights. But by paying the taxes, they will be deprived of their stockpiles, and they will starve to death. ”

"I pretended to tell them that the governor had secretly lowered the taxes. By paying for them, the villagers will still have food in store and will be able to live. But as a condition, the villagers need to keep it strictly confidential, otherwise other villages and towns will follow suit. ”

After discussing it, the villagers agreed. I secretly made up for the missing taxes and went back to my life. ”

"In this way, I was favored by the manager and finally promoted. ”

"I was in a position of importance, and at first no one looked down on me. They thought I was powerless, just a simple scholar, and that an assassination would kill me. But in fact, I've been in this position for more than 30 years. ”

"I'm in a position that gives me the opportunity to perform. My knowledge allowed me to show my worth, and the lords gradually became impressed with me. ”

"In the process, I never gave up on the pursuit of knowledge. It is because I am constantly acquiring new knowledge that my value is increasing. ”

"Although Pastor Ma Shen left me very early, his spirit of knowledge has become one with my blood. ”

"I thought I would serve my lord until I died, but fate gave me a new path. ”

"Time went by, I got older, and it made many people see opportunities. At the same time, I pursued a love of knowledge over power, and tried to avoid factional strife within the lords, which also made the authorities dissatisfied. ”

"They instigated a young man. ”

"His name is Lan Tu, and he daydreams about becoming a knight all day long. He is my closest deputy. The third lady of the lord seduced her with love, and finally made the young man decide to betray. ”

"He denounced me, claiming that I was a dangerous criminal who had been hiding for many years, and that he had always harbored evil intentions and conspiracies against the territory and the lord's family. ”

"I had to flee to save my life. The young man successfully took my place and was recruited by the third lady. ”

"The act of absconding in fear of crime undoubtedly confirms the young man's accusations. At the beginning of the escape, I was very sad, angry, and indulging in all kinds of negative emotions. ”

"After a long time, I finally figured it out. ”

"It was fate that gave me a new path. ”

"I asked myself, I'm so old that my days are numbered, how can I spend the rest of my life? Of all the knowledge, I was most interested in biology. I want to be academically successful, I want to finish a book that explains the mystery of life as best I can. ”

"Soon, a wanted notice spread about me. I'm not surprised. I serve the lord's family, I am in a position of great responsibility, and I know many secrets. The lord's family won't let me go easily. ”

"I can't stay in the Shengming Continent any longer, so I can only take a boat to the Beast Continent. It just so happens that the Wilderness Continent has many unique ecosystems, which will be of great help to me in completing my academic work. ”

"Lord Needle Gold, I'm an old guy with a wanted warrant. If you want to recruit me, you will undoubtedly be the enemy of the Cotton Sand family. That's why I rejected your solicitation before. ”

"And most of the reason why I have mastered the taming method of the Explosive Hoof Horse comes from the horse god priest. The rest of the techniques are something that I've spent more than 30 years experimenting with. ”

"That's my story. ”

"It was wonderful. "Needle Gold Praise.

Cangsu smiled slightly: "Thank you for your compliment, it is my life's honor to be listened to by you." Halfway through my academic writings, they are hidden in my head, but at the same time I have secretly hidden a copy in the territory of Cotton Sand. ”

"This half of the work is hidden in a cell in the ruins of a village. That's where I was tortured. It's in the bricks under the iron shackles. ”

"My last wish is that if I die here, then please give half of my completed work to Lantu. Of course, adults can read and collect it, and if it can be used for you, it will be a great pleasure for me. ”

Needle Gold frowned, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"Lan Tu?" Zi Di woke up at some point, "If I heard correctly, Lan Tu is the young man who framed you?"

"Yes, Miss Zidi, you heard you right. ”

There was a complicated look on the beard's face, desolate, sad, with a hint of pain and hope.

He continued, "Because this young man is my son." ”
