Although Drifting Snow City is large, due to the restrictions of arable land and lack of blood jade, only a few hundred thousand people live. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoAfter the bloody disaster, the ruling system of the empire collapsed, and there was no such thing as aristocracy. But among these hundreds of thousands of people, it is inevitable that there is still a distinction between high and low.

Standing at the top of the pyramid are the City Lord and the Gu Family, they add up to only a few thousand, but they are the most productive group of people in Drifting Snow City, if they are missing, Drifting Snow City will lose more than half of the blood jade income.

Below them are some scattered families of jade pickers, who account for most of the population of Drifting Snow City, and live by the male owner of the family desperately searching for blood jade in the wilderness. And the most miserable are the so-called slum residents, which do not refer to one place, but to the entire area around the Four Seasons Garden.

The environment in this area is crowded and dirty, and the security is not good, but the advantage is that it is relatively close to the Four Seasons Garden, and you can earn a bite to eat by helping and doing farm work in the Four Seasons Garden on weekdays. Most of the families who live here are families whose male owners died or became disabled after being attacked by fierce beasts in the wilderness and no longer have the ability to collect jade, and of course, some cowards who dare not venture into the wilderness.

The poor and the extended families are inherently opposed, and the poor curse the people of the extended family for being stingy and selfish, unwilling to share food and family secrets with them, and the people of the extended family despise the poor people for living like blood-sucking parasites in the fruits of other people's labor.

There is still a lot of class mobility between ordinary jade pickers' families and the poor, and there are often families who have lost their ability to pick jade due to accidents moving into the slums, and there are also children in the slums who grow up to be called qualified jade pickers and move out of the slums with their families.

Freemasonry is an organization formed by the few people who are able to collect jade in the wilderness who remain in the slums, and most of the members grew up in the slums, and when they grow up, they are gifted and courageous enough to move their families out of the slums, but they remain in the slums for various reasons.

Some of them are unwilling to abandon their former partners, some have grievances with big families, and some are really kind-hearted, they can't see others suffering, and they want to help the people in the entire slum to eat through their own efforts.

But whatever their reason for remaining in the slums, they swore to the true God when they joined the Freemasonry that they would do everything in their power to help the unproductive people in the slums to live a well-fed and clothed life, which was the price they would pay for joining the Freemasons and borrowing the power of Freemasonry.

This is also the main reason why Old Man Bai is not optimistic about the relationship between Xue An and the assassin girl, and the two of them can't go the same way. Xue An is the head of the Xue family, and everything he does is to make the Xue family live a better life. And the girl, as a Freemason, naturally acted only for the benefit of Freemasonry.

Xue An didn't have as much of a burden as Old Man Bai, which was still a distant thing for him.

......

Old Man Bai felt that since he had been targeted by the city lord, he didn't do much to hide it, and took Xue An into the Xue Mansion from the main gate openly, completely ignoring the spies around the Xue Mansion.

It's just that as soon as he entered the Xue Mansion, Xue An was quickly pulled closer to a room by the old man of the knife, and asked him to take off the hundred-faced iron and hand it to another boy who was very similar to him. He didn't know where Old Man Dao found this boy, but this method worked very well, and he used this to get rid of his relationship with Meng Changsheng's identity and become his eldest young master of Xue Mansion.

This is a move instructed by the old man Bai Changgeng, he is afraid that Xue An's ability to kill fierce beasts head-on will be exposed, if any force in Drifting Snow City learns of Xue An's ability, they will be crazy about it, and they will deal with the Xue family and Xue An without scruples.

The three of them went to the window of Granny Hua together to visit Granny Hua who was unconscious. The bee venom of the assassin bee is too domineering, and all the soul jade that the old man took back from the Bai family last time used it, but it only saved Granny Hua's life, but failed to completely solve the bee venom.

This time, Old Man Bai personally took action, he may be the person with the largest number of soul jade in Drifting Snow City, and he is very proficient in the use of soul jade, and it is most suitable for him to treat Granny Hua.

The whole process was much longer than Xue An had thought, and for a whole afternoon, Old Man Bai had used an unknown amount of soul jade, and when he knew that he, the spell caster, was already tired and a little faint, Granny Hua's complexion eased.

The old man hurriedly pulled out a needle made of blood jade, and once at the fingertips of Granny Hua, he saw that the blood flowing out was not dull and dark, and then he was relieved.

Granny Hua's poison is finally solved.

After the business was done, Old Man Bai took Xue An out, leaving only him and Old Man Dao in the room without knowing what to say.

Xue An had no choice but to wait outside the house, but of course he would not be left out in the cold, and soon all the cousins and cousins of the Xue family came over.

These days, Xue Mansion has been in a tense atmosphere, forced by the city lord's family to dare not go out, Granny Hua was poisoned and unconscious, Xue An, the eldest young master and head of the family, is nowhere to be found, so that these women who only know how to cook and weave on weekdays have no backbone, and they are eager but dare not ask, Mingyue was stern when she was acting as a housekeeper, and in order to prevent her cousins and cousins from leaking the secrets of Xue Mansion, they were not allowed to discuss Xue An's disappearance.

Now that Xue An has returned, it is really great news for them. Although they all witnessed the fatigue of the Xue family and guessed that the Xue family might end up ruined in the future, most of them couldn't let go of the idea of being the head mother of the Xue family. In the eyes of these girls from poor families, staying in the Xue family for a day can be regarded as a day of happiness, and they are never willing to step into the cannibalistic Snow City as soon as possible.

Yingying Yanyan surrounded Xue An, warmly greeted Xue An, and inevitably gave him the wind and dust. Although these women all abided by the rules and didn't dare to go too far, Xue An was already a little overwhelmed, and after saying a few words to please rest assured and do their best to protect the Xue family, they hurriedly got out and waited in front of Granny Hua's room.

These cousins and cousins wanted to follow again, but they were glared at fiercely by Juan Rong on the side, she was the wife of the previous generation of the head of the family to Xue An, although she didn't come forward to talk to Xue An out of self-esteem just now, but there were indeed many thoughts and worries in her heart, and she couldn't tell Xue An in her chest. Now that this group of women came up to entangle their husbands again, they burst out of anger for a while.

Mingyue also stood beside Juanrong and helped Xue An block the cousins and cousins. She has been managing the Xue Mansion for a few days, and inadvertently with a touch of majesty on her body, her face was cold, and those cousins and cousins pursed their lips and lowered their heads, and turned around to prepare the meal.

Xue An stood outside the door of Granny Hua's room, originally just trying to hide, but faintly heard Old Man Bai's voice. The doors of the Xue Mansion are all old things left over from before the bloody rain disaster, made of hundred-year-old towering wood, with excellent sound insulation, you can think that Old Man Bai is arguing loudly with Old Man Dao in an almost roaring way:

"Dao Yichuan, what the hell do you think, Xue An, he is not ready! I disagree......"

“...... Leave this matter to me, don't let Xue An ......"

“...... Do you know how many people in Drifting Snow City are staring at Xue An now, wanting to kill him and seize your Xue family......

Until the end, when the old man Bai pushed the door out, he was still angry, obviously unable to convince the old man Dao. He saw Xue An eavesdropping at the door, but didn't say anything, just pulled Xue An down to a no-man's corner and handed Xue An two bags

"One is filled with soul jade, and the other is filled with blood jade, all of which I have accumulated over the years, and now I have almost broken with those juniors in my family, even if I am alone, it's nothing to keep it, you can keep it."

Xue An naturally couldn't ask for it, he still had the soul jade harvest of these days on his body, which was enough to exchange for the blood jade to repay the Xue family's debts. Besides, Old Man Bai has already paid too much for him and the Xue family, so it is better to leave more soul jade for self-defense on the pilgrimage road.

When Old Man Bai saw Xue An's resignation, he forced it to him:

"Don't worry, I still have some soul jade left on my body for self-defense, besides, it's not so easy for anyone who wants to harm me Bai Changgeng!You also take the blood jade, you can't replace all the soul jade in your hand with blood jade right now, otherwise someone with a heart will wonder how you managed to get so much soul jade in a short period of time."

Dao Yichuan's old immortal head has a problem, and I want you to join the pilgrimage group too, but I can't convince him. Be careful yourself, live well, cultivate well, I'm still waiting for you to kill that Wangtian for me, don't die. ”

After speaking, Old Man Bai led the boy who took over Meng Changsheng's identity out of the Xue Mansion together.
