Chapter 362: Indifferent Gaze
readx;
In fact, not only the Zhou family encountered such difficulties, but the other dozens of families living in this laneway, most of them were in the same poverty as the Zhou family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Only a small number of people are slightly better off than the Zhou family, that's all.
Zhou Xin took his gaze back from the old tree outside the house, let out a long sigh, then looked at his wife beside him, and said worriedly: "This time, there is no money to hand over, I don't know if the two elders' subordinates can be accommodating, let us be in arrears for a while, and when we have money, we will hand it over together." ā
In fact, when he said these words, Zhou Xin just wanted to comfort himself while comforting his wife.
Not to mention that they will have money in the future, they even have a problem with food and clothing now, and Zhou Xin, as the head of the family, is also very confused about his future life.
Looking at his wife's rather haggard face, Zhou Xin felt distressed and sad in his heart, as the head of the family, not only failed to let his wife and children live a good life, but let them suffer with him, Zhou Xin felt very uncomfortable.
In these days, it is almost impossible for people like them to get help from others.
Moreover, the Zhou family has no relatives in this town, even some cousins who are related to the Zhou family are also like hiding from the plague god, hiding from the Zhou family, for fear that the Zhou family will ask them to borrow money.
Zhou Xin was also very angry at the two cousins in the town, not only did those people not help their family, but when the rich people in the town wanted to drive all the poor people here, the two cousins of the Zhou family also fell into the well and helped those rich people to expel the Zhou family and other people.
Zhou Xin is still very angry about the actions of the two cousins at the beginning, and at the same time, he also deeply understands that when encountering difficulties, no one can rely on him, only himself.
"I hope the subordinates of the two elders don't embarrass us tomorrow. The woman standing next to Zhou Xin looked worried, and her brows were furrowed.
Of course, Zhou Xin understood the meaning of his wife's words, recently those rich people in the town actually found a vein containing gold ore in the north of the town, in order to mine all the gold ore in the vein, they and the second elder and the third elder have already discussed, let the people in the town who can't pay the rent go to the mine to mine and work as labor.
As long as you work in the mine for another month, you can offset the rent you originally owed.
The two elders immediately expressed their support for the rich man in the town who had been in collusion with the two elders to make a profit, such as gold mining.
Now, Zhou Xin is worried that the subordinates of the two elders will arrest his son Di Tian to mine because they can't pay the rent.
In the town, many of the people who were mining on the veins had already died in the mines.
Some of them died unexpectedly, and some of them inadvertently dug up some highly toxic plants during mining, thus dying.
In short, there are many dangers and dangers in that vein, and those who go there to mine will not be able to come back alive after nine times out of ten.
Not to mention working there for a month, even if you work for a day, you will leave your life there.
Those rich people naturally do not go to the ore vein to mine by themselves, they take their lives and safety very seriously.
When Zhou Xin and his wife were very anxious about what was about to happen, this was Di Tian who walked out of the humble back room.
Looking at the worry on his father's face, Di Tian knew that the two of them must be worrying about the "rent".
Five taels of silver is enough for a poor family like them to eat a full meal for a month.
For example, a lot of money in Emperor Tian's eyes was handed over to the second elder and the third elder, but Emperor Tian was very reluctant.
If they had the ability to easily hand over five taels of silver, of course Di Tian would not be stingy, and would naturally hand it over generously.
However, with the current situation in his family, let alone five taels of silver, even if it is one or two pieces of silver, Emperor Tian's father can't take it out.
The money owned by the three members of the family is only a few dozen cents together, where will there be five taels of silver to hand over.
Di Tian was also quite anxious in his heart, he knew what would happen to him once he couldn't hand over the five taels of silver, all the valuable things in his house, as well as some furniture, as early as two months ago, because he couldn't pay the "rent" of the month, he was taken away by the two subordinates of the second elder and the third elder, and now Di Tian's home is empty, leaving only a few dilapidated tables and chairs.
Di Tian, who is already twenty years old this year, is already a relatively strong young man, although he has not become a cultivator like the children of those wealthy families in the town, but Di Tian, who has been doing housework with his father and mother since he was a child, also has a lot of strength.
To lift more than a hundred catties of things, it is not a problem for Di Tian at all.
For those rich children in the town who can cultivate, Di Tian is envious in his heart, and he often fantasizes that one day he can also become a cultivator, and then gain great strength and become a strong person.
His father, Zhou Xin, is now in his forties, just a very ordinary person, and belongs to the type of people who are looked down upon in the town.
Di Tian naturally didn't want to be like his father, he didn't do anything in his life, he wanted to become a cultivator, so that it would be possible to change the poverty in his family, so that his father and mother would no longer live a poor life.

Chapter 7: The Potential of Cultivation
Chapter 7: The Potential of Cultivation
For those strong people on the continent who have achieved cultivation, Di Tian has always been in awe, and when he dreams, he even dreams that he has become the kind of strong man with ten thousand catties of terrifying power.
Of course, for these Emperor Tian, he just thought about it, those strong people were completely different worlds from him, and Emperor Tian couldn't even step into the threshold of cultivation now.
Although he had always wanted to become a cultivator, he didn't have the exercises to cultivate.
Moreover, before everyone wants to cultivate, they have to take a "Qi Inducing Pill" to tap the talent of the cultivator's body, and then cultivate according to the exercises.
Qi Induction Pill is something that no one who wants to step into the path of cultivation must take it, otherwise they will not be able to tap the potential of the cultivator himself.
Everyone's potential is different, uneven, some people have very good potential, can be called genius, but there are also people's potential, very mediocre.
When they didn't take the Qi Inducing Pill, no one knew what their cultivation potential was, but once they took the Qi Inducing Pill to tap their potential, it would be very clear what their potential would be and how fast they would cultivate.
Because of the Xuanming Continent, the wind of cultivation is very strong, and the so-called Great Zhou Dynasty, one of the three major dynasties on the continent, is also very prosperous in the cultivation style.
All people want to become human beings through cultivation, and become beings that thousands of people look up to.
As long as there are a little conditions, people who live in poverty and are not very poor will choose to take the path of cultivation.
Before taking the "Qi Induction Pill" cultivation, no one knew what their potential was, so no one would give up on the path of cultivation.
Of course, there are also many people, after taking the "Qi Extraction Pill" to tap their own potential, they find that their own potential is very mediocre in terms of cultivation speed, so they give up on themselves.
Such people, not to mention that there are many in the Great Zhou Dynasty, even in Qingshan Town, there are also most people.
Qingshan Town is a town with relatively rich resources, and most of the townspeople are worry-free about food and clothing, so those people have stepped into the path of cultivation, although there are many cultivators in the town, but there are very few people who can achieve something in cultivation.
Most people have reached the early stage of cultivation, and after they have just stepped into the first realm of cultivation, their cultivation will stop, and no matter how hard they work hard, their cultivation will not be able to improve at all.
In this way, it has a great relationship with their own potential, and their potential is very mediocre, and no matter how they cultivate, their cultivation will not be refined at all.
Unless you are willing to spend a hundred times or a thousand times more time than ordinary people to cultivate, then you still have a chance to improve your cultivation.
However, there is no one in Qingshan Town who is willing to work hard and cultivate without distractions like this.
Once you take the "Qi Induction Pill", you still have to have the exercises to cultivate, if you don't have the exercises, you can't cultivate, and it is impossible to rely on your own exploration.
Unless there are some talents who defy the heavens, they can rely on their own understanding to perceive the aura between heaven and earth without cultivating through exercises, so as to absorb cultivation.
The price of a "Qi Extraction Pill" alone is twenty taels of silver, because the Qi Extraction Pill is a necessary pill for every cultivator, and it is also the kind of low-level pill that only taps the cultivator's own potential, so its price is also the cheapest of the pills.
Since the "Qi Pill" is only the lowest level of pills, and the medicinal materials for refining it are only ordinary ordinary medicinal materials, its price is the lowest among many pills, and the "Qi Pill" is sold in every place.
The price of the "Qi Induction Pill" is the lowest among all the pills, but the price of the twenty taels is also sky-high in the eyes of Emperor Tian, and it is impossible for him to have twenty taels of silver to buy the "Qi Inducing Pill".
Even after having the "Qi Induction Pill", after discovering one's own potential, one must also have a book of cultivation exercises, and low-level cultivators, when they first came into contact with cultivation, the exercises they cultivated were all some basic exercises, and these exercises were sold everywhere.
The price of a book of the most basic exercises also needs to be the same price as the "Qi Induction Pill", which also requires twenty taels of silver, and if you want to become a cultivator, you must have forty taels of silver to buy the "Qi Induction Pill" and exercises.
Forty taels of silver, which is an astronomical amount for Emperor Tian.
From childhood to adulthood, Emperor Tian has seen the most silver, and it is only ten taels of silver.
Moreover, there was still a time when his father Zhou Xin was hunting in the mountains near the town, and he was very lucky to encounter a huge beast that died unexpectedly.
After the emperor's father dragged the huge beast back to the town, he sold it at the market for a high price of ten taels of silver.
That was the time when Di Tian was with his father and mother and had one of the few sumptuous meals.
Ten taels of silver, the most silver Emperor Tian had ever seen, forty taels of silver, for him, it was simply a large amount that he didn't dare to imagine.
If there are forty taels of silver, the situation in the emperor's family will definitely improve, and it will not be as poor as it is now.
"Dad, mother, don't worry, when they come, I'll go with them to mine on the veins. Ditian, who felt extremely sorry for Zhou Xin and his wife, suddenly said helplessly.
After listening to Di Tian's words, Zhou Xin's face immediately changed greatly, his face immediately became gloomy, and he looked at Di Tian and reprimanded sharply: "Is there a place where you can go to the mineral vein, how many people have you seen who went there and came back alive?"
Ditian is the only son of Zhou Xin and his wife, the two have been discriminated against and coldly regarded by others in their lives, for Ditian, the two are infused with great expectations, hoping that one day, Ditian can get ahead, and from then on be upright and no longer looked down upon.
Now, Di Tian has not yet come to the fore, but he has the idea of mining on the ore vein, Zhou Xin immediately became anxious.
The vein is simply a place where the living are buried, there are many crises, and almost no one who has gone there can come back alive.
Even if someone is lucky enough to come back alive from the vein, it will be scarred and without full skin.
Emperor Tian is the only hope for the two of them in the future, Zhou Xin is willing to die by himself, and he is not willing to take his son's life, and the hope of glorifying the ancestors in the future has to be realized by Emperor Tian.
"Recently, in the town, there are only a few people who can come back alive, and they are very lucky, and the other dozens of people all died there, it is too dangerous there, you can't go there tomorrow." Hearing that Di Tian said that there was really no way, so he would go to the ore vein to mine, his mother was really startled, and immediately anxiously advised.

Chapter 8: Desperate Situation
Chapter 8: Desperate Situation
Di Tian also knew that his father and mother were worried about him, in fact, what he said just now was just casual talk, not really going to mine on that vein, unless it was a last resort, otherwise the kind of place where nine deaths and one life, Di Tian would never want to go.
Recently, most of the people in the town who went to the vein never returned, either by accident or by accident while mining, they accidentally came across the highly poisonous plant and died.
In short, it was a very dangerous place, and no one in the town wanted to go to that place anymore.
It was only the rich people in the town and the two elders who were unwilling to give up the large amount of gold in the veins that they began to forcibly arrest people in the town to mine in the veins.
And the objects of arrest are those who are helpless, belong to the most unqualified and undignified poor people in the town, the poor people in Qingshan Town have all gathered in this dirty alley, Di Tian thinks that the second elder and the third elder will definitely come here if they want to arrest people.
At that time, it is estimated that most of the poor people living here will be caught and sent to mine in the ore veins, even if those who are already old can be spared, but young people like Di Tian will not be able to escape.
"Father, mother, I don't want to go to a dangerous place like the mine, but when the second elder and the third elder's men come over, we can't hand over the five taels of silver, and they will still arrest me. ā
Emperor Tian seemed to have predicted what was coming, and he would most likely be caught in the vein.
Ditian's worries are actually what Zhou Xin and Ditian's mother are very worried about.
Zhou Xin would rather him go to the ore vein, even if he died, than Di Tian to go to the ore vein to die.
The revitalization of the Zhou family, the heavy task of glorifying the ancestors, he has all pinned on the body of the emperor, once the emperor went to the vein, encountered an accident, the only incense of the Zhou family's generation, and it was cut off.
Zhou Xin would never allow such a thing to happen, but if he couldn't hand over five taels of silver, the subordinates of the two elders and the third elder would definitely not let go of Emperor Tian.
Zhou Xin, he has a headache at the moment, he no longer has a headache for the five taels of silver, but in his heart at this moment, he is thinking about how to let Emperor Tian escape this catastrophe.
Letting Emperor Tian go to that vein is almost the same as sending him to death, Zhou Xin will not just let the incense of the Zhou family be cut off in his generation.
At this moment, Zhou Xin hated the second elder and the third elder very much, hating these two people for being obsessed with money and careless about people's lives.
In order to mine the gold in the vein, he knew that there were many dangers in the vein, and he could not die in it after he went, and he could not come back, but he still had to arrest people to mine in the vein.
After thinking about it in his heart, Zhou Xin looked at Di Tian, his face was full of determination, and said solemnly: "Ming'er, it's better for you to escape now, leave Qingshan Town, escape far away, our Zhou family is in your single line, you can't have a bad pool." ā
Only by letting Di Tian escape and stay away from Qingshan Town can he save his life.
Judging from the current situation, apart from the method of letting Di Tian escape, Zhou Xin really couldn't think of any other way to save Di Tian's life.
The Zhou family, just the only seedling of Ditian, once Ditian is caught mining and loses his life, not only will the incense of the Zhou family be broken, but also the Zhou Xin couple will be in pain because of this.
Even if he fought for the lives of his husband and wife, Zhou Xin decided to save Ditian and prevent him from having an accident.
Once Emperor Tian escaped, the fate of Zhou Xin and his wife would definitely be miserable, and they would even be brutally killed by the angry Second Elder and the Third Elder because of this.
The tempers of the second elder and the third elder were already very hot, cruel and ruthless, and they had always been very cold to the townspeople in the town.
Once someone offends him, then the two of them will definitely let the person who offended them suffer a lot.
Although the torture methods of the second elder and the third elder made Zhou Xin's heart tremble for a while, in order to allow Emperor Tian to save his life, even if he was tortured to death by the two elders, he had to do so.
After hearing his father's words, Di Tian immediately shook his head and refused, although Zhou Xin had already expressed his attitude, and he was very resolute, asking Di Tian to escape from here and hide in other places, but once Di Tian escaped like this, it would inevitably bring disaster to his parents.
This is also what Di Tian doesn't want to see, how can he ruthlessly abandon his parents and flee alone?
"No, husband, father, I can't escape, if I escape, the second elder and the third elder will not let you and your mother go. Looking at Zhou Xin, Di Tian showed a determined expression and shook his head in refusal.
"Ming'er, listen to your father's words and leave here immediately, only if you save your life, can you glorify your ancestors in the future and inherit the ancestors for our Zhou family. Seeing that Emperor Tian was unwilling to escape alone, although Zhou Xin felt relieved for his son's filial piety, his face showed a solemn look.
His vast eyes as deep as the starry sky looked at Di Tian and persuaded again: "Ming'er, you must leave immediately, otherwise you won't be able to leave after the two men of the Second Elder and the Third Elder have come down." ā
Di Tian's mother, her thoughts are the same as her husband, she also hopes that Di Tian can leave here immediately, only if he leaves here and saves his life, the Zhou family will not be broken in the future.
"Ming'er, listen to your father's words, hurry up and get out of here, it's too late. Ditian's mother, standing on Zhou Xin's side, persuaded Ditian.
However, the resolute look on Di Tian's face did not slow down in the slightest, he looked at the faces of the two of them, which were already slightly old, and the thoughts in his heart became even more firm.
His parents are now old, and he can't leave the two of them at such a time, even if he wants to escape, he will flee here as a family of three.
Escaping alone, even if Emperor Tian was able to escape from here and arrived safely in other places, he would not feel relaxed, and his mood would become very heavy for the rest of his life because of this.
"No, then I'm leaving alone, absolutely not, even if I want to escape, the three of us will leave together. Di Tian looked at Zhou Xin and his wife, his eyes flashed with determination, and he said resolutely
Seeing Ditian's insistence, the expressions of Zhou Xin and his wife couldn't help but be even more worried, Ditian's filial piety, and both of them were very happy and relieved.
However, the two hope that Zhou Xin can leave here as soon as possible, escape to other places, live a good life, and revive the Zhou family in the future and glorify their ancestors.
Although Zhou Xin and his wife also wanted to leave here with Ditian, the family of three went to other places to settle down again.
However, the three of them left here together, the target was too big, and it was easy to be discovered by other people in the town, and once they were discovered, even Emperor Tian would not be able to escape.

Chapter 9: The Whereabouts of the Great Elder
Chapter 9: The Whereabouts of the Great Elder
It's not that Zhou Xin doesn't want to leave here with his wife and Di Tian and escape from this place of right and wrong, but if the three of them escape together, that kind of goal is really too big.
The three of them fled together, and after being discovered, none of them could escape, so their family's lives would be difficult to protect.
After all, the two elders and the third elder are like the soil emperors of Qingshan Town, who dominate the fate of Qingshan Town, without their permission, no townspeople are allowed to leave casually, once they catch the townspeople who leave without permission, or even try to escape, the end will be very miserable.
In the town, it was not unheard of that there were townspeople before, and it was really unbearable, so he took his family to escape Qingshan Town after it was dark and most of the people in the town had slept.
However, the family did not escape, and they were discovered and captured by the two elders' men who patrolled at night.
Later, in order to make an example of the second and third elders, so that the rest of the people in the town no longer dared to escape, they killed all the family on the same day, and also carried the corpses of the family in a carriage and paraded the streets for three days.
Since that incident, many of the townspeople in Qingshan Town, who were also thinking of fleeing, no longer dared to take any action, they were afraid that they would end up with the same fate as that family, and after being caught, they would not only be executed, but also have to endure a torture that was worse than death.
The three of them escaped together, the goal was too big, Zhou Xin was not sure that he could escape like this, but he felt that it would be much easier if Emperor Tian escaped alone.
When others escaped, they chose to act when it was dark and most of the people in the town had fallen asleep, but Zhou Xinjue's escape during the day was easier than at night.
Because of the several exits leading to the outside world in Castle Peak Town, there are a lot of people patrolling there at night, and their purpose is to prevent the townspeople from taking the opportunity to escape.
During the day, at the few entrances to the outside world in Castle Peak, there are at most one or two people patrolling there, and sometimes no one patrols yet.
The two elders felt that during the day, no one should dare to take the opportunity to escape, after all, if they escaped in broad daylight, it would be easy to be discovered by the rest of the town.
Now, Zhou Xin's family has completely fallen into a desperate situation, and there is no money to pay the rent, and once the two elders' subordinates come over, they will definitely catch Emperor Tian to mine to mine, so as to offset the rent of the five taels of silver they owe.
However, most of the people in the town who went to the mine never returned, nine of the ten people died unexpectedly and died in the mine, once Emperor Tian was caught in the mine, there would be many bad luck, and his life would probably be buried because of this, Zhou Xin would not think that Emperor Tian's luck would be extremely good and become one of the poor survivors with a small chance.
In order not to let the Zhou family cut off the incense like this, in order to be able to revitalize the courtyard in the future and glorify the ancestors, no matter how Zhou Xinjue is, he can't let Ditian be caught in the mine.
There is a point of no return, and after you go, you can't come back alive, and there seems to be a devouring beast in the vein, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people dying there.
According to the ore vein containing a large amount of gold was discovered by the rich people in the town, until now, there have been more than 100 people who have entered the ore vein, but among the more than 100 people, only three people can return to the town alive, and when those three people returned, they were all poisoned and almost died.
Fortunately, the divine doctor in the town, with superb medical skills and a wonderful hand of rejuvenation, removed the poison in the three people with the holy medicine that was prepared.
Fortunately, the poison in the three people has not yet invaded their internal organs, otherwise once the poisonous poison invades the internal organs of the three people, even if the divine doctor in the town is superb in medical skills, no matter how good the holy medicine is prepared, he will not be able to save the lives of the three people.
Since almost all of the more than 100 people in the vein died, all the townspeople in the town were afraid of the vein, and it had reached the point where the color of the ore had changed, and no one dared to go to the vein anymore.
As a result, that vein once again became a fierce place in the eyes of the townspeople of Qingshan Town, and no one even dared to get close to that vein again.
Although most of the townspeople were already very afraid of the vein, because the vein contained a lot of gold, the greedy rich people in the town did not stop because of this.
The second elder and the third elder, after investing a lot of manpower and material resources, did not gain anything from the ore vein, and naturally they were also very unwilling, and the two of them, like the rich people in the town, did not easily give up the continued mining of the ore vein.
No one was willing to go to the veins anymore, so the two elders, after discussing with the wealthy people in the town for a while, decided to force the poor people in the town who could not afford to pay the rent to mine in the veins, and become a tool for them to earn a lot of gold.
The second elder and the third elder, regardless of the dissatisfaction of the poor people in the town, did not regard the life and death of those poor people in their eyes.
Qingshan Town is also a town with relatively rich resources among the surrounding towns, and most of the townspeople in the town are worry-free about food and clothing, and for the small number of poor people in the town, the second elder and the third elder, they have long felt that it is very eye-catching.
Now, when they are used, even if all the poor people die on the ore vein, the second elder and the third elder will not feel the slightest sorrow and guilt, these poor people all died, but it saved the resources of Qingshan Town.
As a result, the second and third elders, who did not regard the life and death of the poor in the town, colluded with the rich in this way.
However, the Great Elder, who was very popular with the poor people, and even most of the townspeople, seemed to have disappeared, and he had not been seen in the sight of the townspeople for a while.
The Great Elder has never appeared, and this matter has also attracted the attention of most of the townspeople, and has become a hot topic among the townspeople.
There are many people in the town who believe that the Great Elder, who has not appeared all this time, is probably in retreat, so he has not appeared in everyone's sight for a long time.
There are also people who think that the Great Elder is likely to have left Qingshan Town because of something important, and he will not come back until the matter is done.
However, there was also a part of the town that believed that the Great Elder had probably met with an accident, which is why he hadn't appeared for so long.
Because, the temperament of the Great Elder, most of the townspeople in Qingshan Town are relatively clear.
The Great Elder has always been friendly and mild-tempered, and if such a major death incident occurs on the ore vein, according to his habit, the ore vein will be immediately listed as a forbidden place and not allowed to enter the townspeople again.
Moreover, according to the Great Elder, he has never gone out much, and those who know him know that even if the Great Elder wants to go out, it will not take a long time, and he will usually rush back immediately after two or three days, just worried about what chaos will happen in the town.

Chapter 10: Arrest
Chapter 10: Arrest
The highly respected Great Elder suddenly disappeared during this period of time, and the reason for this is worth investigating, and many people believe that it is likely that the Second Elder and the Third Elder joined forces to assassinate the Great Elder.
Although Qingshan Town is jointly managed by the three of them, the Great Elder has always been not very keen on power, which is why the two elders and the third elder cover the sky with one hand, but the Great Elder is not keen on power and does not represent much, so he will not care about the affairs in the town.
In the past, there was a great elder supervising the two of them, and the second elder and the third Zhang Lai didn't dare to do anything too out of line, but now Qingshan Town was made into a miasma by the wealthy people in the town united by the two.
In order to satisfy their own selfish desires, they disregarded the lives and safety of the people in the town, and forcibly arrested people to mine in the dangerous and life-threatening ore veins.
This kind of behavior, if the Great Elder is here, he will definitely come out to stop the two of them from doing anything wrong.
However, now the Great Elder has not appeared for a long time, which makes the townspeople feel a little uneasy and worried for the Great Elder.
The Great Elder suddenly stopped appearing at the critical moment when this kind of thing happened, probably because he stopped the Second Elder and the Third Elder, and was jointly assassinated by the two.
Although the cultivation of the Great Elder has already entered the middle stage of the championship, it is much stronger than the cultivation of the second elder and the third elder who are only at the peak of the early stage of the championship.
Even if the two of them join forces and attack the Great Elder together, it will be difficult to defeat the Great Elder.
However, the Second Elder and the Third Elder had been dissatisfied with the Great Elder for a long time, and both of them thought that the Great Elder had been hindering their interests, and staying by the two of them was just getting in the way, and they had long wanted to get rid of the Great Elder.
The two of them joined forces and confronted the Great Elder head-on, it would be difficult to defeat him, but if the two of them secretly calculated the Great Elder, it would be easy to succeed.
The Great Elder has a good temper, and he is also very kind to the people in the town, and he doesn't have much scheming about power.
Many people speculated that the Great Elder, who had not appeared for such a long time, must have been assassinated by the ruthless, sinister and cunning Second Elder and the Third Elder.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Great Elder not to appear for such a long time.
Now that such a big thing has happened in the town, with the temperament of the Great Elder, it should have appeared a long time ago.
Once the Great Elder is assassinated, then the townspeople of Qingshan Town will suffer from the tea poison of the two elders in the future, and those who have deep pockets will naturally not worry about this, and the second elder and the third elder are all colluding with those people.
Especially the poor people in the town, without the protection of the Great Elder, all the poor seem to have seen that they have no bright future.
Compared with the rest of the town, Zhou Xin, the poor people gathered in this lane, were very supportive and in awe of the Great Elder.
As for the second and third elders who always wanted to constantly exploit and not give them a way out, poor people like Zhou Xin couldn't wait for the two of them to die immediately.
With these two people in Qingshan Town, it will be like hell on earth, and their lives will be even more difficult and deplorable.
Zhou Xin wanted to persuade Emperor Dong to leave here immediately, to live well elsewhere, and leave hope for the future inheritance of the Zhou family, but Zhou Ming seemed to have made up his mind and stayed by his father and mother's side, and he didn't stop Zhou Xin's persuasion at all.
Even if Zhou Xin's mouth was about to be worn out, and his mouth was dry, Di Tian still shook his head, his attitude was very resolute, if he wanted to escape from a family of three and let him escape alone, it would be impossible.
Zhou Xin knew that Emperor Tian was filial, and he wanted to stay and do his best to protect him and his wife, but Zhou Xin disagreed with Zhou Xin's idea.
Even if Emperor Tian stayed, he would not be the opponent of the Second Elder and the Third Elder at all, and in the town, except for the three Elders, no one else in the town could be the subordinates of the Second Elder and the Third Elder.
And Di Tian has never even touched cultivation except for having a little strength, where will he be the opponent of the two elders and the third elder.
The collision between Emperor Tian and those people is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and he is not overwhelmed.
But persuasion has already started to have any effect, Zhou Xin can only look up to the sky and sigh, his expression is even more worried.
Di Tian refused to leave, he wanted to stay with the two of them, and in the face of what was about to happen, when the two elders' men arrived, they would definitely catch Zhou Min in the ore vein to mine.
There is no way to go back to the ore vein, a place of great evil, and after many people in the town have gone, they can't come back, and no one dares to set foot there.
When Zhou Xin looked worried and sighed, Di Tian's eyes were also full of gloom, where did he continue to stay here, but if he was allowed to escape alone, leaving his only closest relative in this world here to be humiliated, Di Tian was very sad when he thought about it.
Leaving behind his only loved relative, even if he fled to other places, in the years to come, Emperor Tian could not let go of the pain of losing his loved one in his heart.
Di Tian refused to leave, Zhou's mother's eyes became even more anxious, her husband persuaded him for so long, but he couldn't make Di Tian change his mind and leave here, she knew that she couldn't make Di Tian leave here, but she looked at Di Tian with a sad expression on her face.
The husband and wife seemed to have seen that the two elders' subordinates broke in violently, and then, like a fierce god, grabbed Emperor Tian without saying a word, and then took him away.
There was no silver to hand in. The subordinates of the two elders didn't even bother to speak, and directly arrested people to mine on the ore veins.
There was a dull atmosphere in the Zhou family's room, and Di Tian and Zhou Xin, as well as his mother, sat around the dilapidated table, all with their heads down, and no one spoke.
Half an hour later, the worries and worries of the three of them turned into cruel facts.
Because, at this moment, three more big men wearing black suits and holding swords in their hands broke into the Zhou family's house with great momentum.
After the three big men broke in, the eyes of the three of them scanned the narrow room, and after finding that there was nothing of value in the room, except for a few chairs and a table that had been broken, their originally very indifferent faces eased a lot.
When they came, the second elder and the third elder promised the three of them that as long as the three of them could catch people to dig in the mine, they would give them some rewards, and the amount of rewards would be based on how many people they caught to go to the ore veins.
In order to be able to get more rewards from the two elders, these three big men have already captured a dozen people who can't pay the money in this place where all the poor gather, and sent them to the ore vein.
In order to get that more generous reward, the three big men didn't want to let go of any poor people in this place, not to mention that they didn't have the money to hand in, even if they had the money to hand in, in order to get that more reward, the three big men would also find a way to make those who could afford to pay the money worse, and after they couldn't pay the money again, they would directly arrest people and go to the ore vein.
So far, the Second Elder and the Third Elder, in order not to make the situation in the village very chaotic, have only let his men arrest the poor people in the town who cannot afford to pay the money.
And those rich people are tools to create wealth and benefits for the two elders, and the two elders will not move.
The indifferent gazes of the three big men scanned the room and found that there was nothing of value in the room.

These three big men, after scanning the empty and small room with indifferent eyes, looked at the three members of Zhou Xin's family in front of them.
Their gaze only glanced at Zhou's mother's body, and then fell on Zhou Xin and Di Tian.
After all, if you catch people to mine in the ore veins, you can only catch some people who can't pay the rent, and these people only need men, and women don't have the strength to do the hard work of mining.
