Chapter 13: The Mayor of the Town

The village is not far from the town, and soon the three of them arrived in the town, although it is said to be the town, but the prosperity here is far from being comparable to the mountain village. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

People can be seen everywhere, and the people in the mountains and villages are far inferior.

In addition to the people who can be seen everywhere, there are more people who are selling along the streets, after all, the reason why the town is lively is because of the trading and trading of the surrounding villages, and this kind of place shouts along the streets without a city management pass, which is very suitable for selling.

Most of the things sold in the town are some animal skins, fabrics, etc., very similar to primitive society, if it weren't for Zhou Kai's busy business, maybe he would have to look around.

I found someone to inquire about the seat of the mayor's house, and soon the three of them found the mayor's house, after all, the town is not very big.

However, when he came to the mayor's house, he was shocked by the scene in front of him. There were people everywhere outside the door of the mayor's house, but the door of the mayor's house was closed.

There was no way, so Zhou Kai had to find someone to inquire about what was going on.

"Uncle, what's going on? Isn't the mayor at home? Why are they all gathered around the mayor's house!" Zhou Kai asked an older man.

Generally speaking, older people are more talkative, and the same is true of this uncle.

"You don't know?"

"Please also ask the uncle to explain it carefully!" Zhou Kai handed the uncle a bottle of wine, but this action wanted to be an exchange between the two smokers.

"Oh! what a good thing!" Da said that when he saw Zhou Kai's wine, he was immediately happy. As soon as I looked at what this uncle was wearing, I knew that he was born in a poor family, and it was definitely a luxury to have a sip of wine to drink, let alone a bottle of wine.

The uncle took the wine, took a big sip and said.

"I don't know what's going on! A few years ago, there was a great drought in our town, and we finally survived that hard time, and we thought that we would be able to live a good life, even if it was not a good life, at least we would not be hungry, but I don't know what happened recently, and a lot of livestock ran out of the mountains, and the grain that was supposed to be harvested was destroyed in this way! Do you think we should not be in a hurry? But what can we do? We have to come to the town chief to see if they can help us! You see these people are all villages that have suffered the same disaster as me! Saying that, the uncle pointed to the people around him very bitterly, and then couldn't help but take a sip of wine.

"What did the town elder say?" Zhou Kai frowned a little, it seems that it is not like this in Shanye Village, but because of this, Zhou Xingxing's doubts are even heavier, and this kind of thing is probably not a coincidence.

"Hey, if you want to say that the mayor is also a good man, he gave us news of the village a long time ago, but no one cared about it at that time! Now he came to beg him again, and he couldn't come up with a way for a while, so he had to ask everyone to wait here. ”

Looking at the uncle's sad emotions, I couldn't bear it.

"You said that this world that respects martial arts will be like this!"

Zhou Kai is really puzzled, in such a world where force is supreme, I dare not say that everyone's life is better, but he will also say that the common people will be hungry!

"Dean! Not everyone is kind, and not everyone thinks of these little people! Even in the eyes of most ordinary people, they feel lucky not to be exploited! Not to mention that the real masters or people with a little strength have gone to compete for fame and fortune. ”

The scholar shook his head, no matter that the scholar Xiucai of that era was basically born by ordinary people, and he was born in these groups and knew the helplessness of the common people better.

"That's right, we came all the way, and the people we saw were not thousands but hundreds, and even I found that there were many C-level talents among them, and there were also B-level talents, if it wasn't for his age, I would have thought about seeing if he could enter our academy. But even such a person has never learned any martial arts, and the B-level talent can at least be cultivated to the innate level!"

"Yes, innately! It is absolutely easy to become a character in this world!"

Just as Zhou Kai was talking to the scholar, the mayor's door finally opened.

As soon as the door opened, the doorway, which had been noisy, fell silent in an instant, and everyone was now eager to know what they could get.

"Okay! I also discussed with a few squires in the town just now, and they are willing to help you provide some food in the coming winter to ensure that you can survive this year! And I have also asked the city lord here, and he has also issued a decree that you will not be taxed this year!" After opening the door, a middle-aged man with a slightly pale face said to everyone, needless to say, Zhou Kai also knew that this person was the mayor of the town.

"Thank you, Mayor Mare!"

"Living Bodhisattva!"

Hearing the mayor say this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon the group of villagers left at the beckoning of the mayor's servants. But Zhou Kai and the scholar stayed aside.

It wasn't until the evening that Zhou Kai and the scholar quietly entered the mayor's house.

"Anyway, dean, are we okay like this? And this is not worthy of your identity!" The scholar is deeply educated in Confucianism, and he is really not used to sneaking into other people's homes like this, if it weren't for Zhou Kai being the dean, it is estimated that he would not have done it.

"What's wrong! You must know that the first virtue activated by your dean is shameless, which is trivial compared to touching in, and besides, we don't steal!"

"But aren't you afraid of being discovered?"

"Hehe! You also underestimate your dean, right! I've seen their information with real eyes, except for this town mayor who is a second-rate master, there are not a few other third-rate masters, not to mention that most of the servants here are ordinary people who have not cultivated!"

Just as the two were talking, they had already touched the outside of the hall of the mayor's house.

"Mayor Mayor, what should I do next?" a middle-aged man who looked like a servant looked at the mayor very sadly.

"I don't know what to do! These dog-day officials didn't treat us as human beings! Just because they wanted to hunt down a big demon and make our town like this, can we do anything with our strength?"

The mayor of the town also said bitterly. He is the head of a town, and the villagers below are under his control, and it can be said that he is the most painful person here.

"What do you two mean by that?"

Just then, a voice rang in the mayor's ears, and then he saw two white figures appear in front of him.

When he heard that this matter was man-made, Zhou Kai knew that this matter was not simple, whether it was out of the completion of the task or his concern for this matter, Zhou Kai decided to ask.

Of course, Zhou Kai and the scholar still found a piece of white cloth and put it on their faces.
