Chapter 3: Burial

The sun was shining, and Yang Di walked quickly along the shadow of the building to the main gate of Heaven Dou City.

Under the cover of the shadows of various buildings, Yang Jie, relying on his lack of neglect in the practice of the basic skills of the Tang Sect in the past few years, did not attract anyone's attention.

Yang Di looked at the majestic gate in front of him, and he showed a sneer.

The gate where people come and go, and anyone can walk in front of him, is a place that his mother has never set foot in this life.

It's not that the guards at the gate don't allow the people of the slums to leave, or that the low, dirty people of the slums are not allowed to appear on the clean and tidy streets.

However, when people in the slums walk out of the door, they are often tantamount to dying early.

From a slum dweller who went to Heaven Dou City to pursue his dreams, but ended up destitute, Yang Di had heard a lot of things outside Heaven Dou City that only ordinary people would pay attention to.

Leaving Heaven Dou City, the nearest village was sixty kilometers away, and this was still a straight line distance, if you walked on the avenue, it would not be a strange thing to walk nearly a hundred kilometers.

Moreover, at this time, the avenue of the Heaven Dou Empire was not the highway of modern society like Yang Jie's first life.

If a man walks along the avenue on foot, he will encounter wild animals, robbers, nobles who treat commoners like playthings, and all kinds of creatures that will take his own initiative.

Even if you're lucky enough not to encounter those creatures, you'll still suffer from physical difficulties such as hunger and lack of water.

The people in the slums are ordinary people who can't become soul masters, and even with a little innate soul power, it's impossible to go that far without food and a stable water source.

Of course, if someone wants to take a gamble and cross the forest and go straight to a known village, then he or she can only wish him or her a whole corpse.

As for running out of Heaven Dou City and regretting it, and wanting to turn around and go back to the city and back to the slums, that is also something that can't be done.

Ordinary people don't have to pay the city fee when they go out of the city, but they have to pay the city fee when they enter the city.

Where do the people in the slums get the extra money to pay for the city?

The guards at the gate don't care if you get out of the city, but they care about whether you get in or not.

Even those dignitaries and dignitaries didn't dare to enter the city without paying, after all, it was the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, who would dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head?

If you don't pay the entrance fee, the guards will drive people away at most, but if someone doesn't pay and wants to break in, the guards will be the ones who take the blame, and they deserve to be beaten.

Because of this, as long as a person falls to the point of living in the slums of Heaven Dou City, he is almost destined to be unable to leave Heaven Dou City for the rest of his life, and there are only two ways to live a life in Heaven Dou City or find a place to be reincarnated.

Yang Jie's mother was naturally also the majority of the slums, and she had never left Heaven Dou City even one step in her life.

Therefore, Yang Di planned to take his mother's ashes through the gate of Heaven Dou City once and bury her outside Heaven Dou City, so that she would not be trapped in this Heaven Dou City even if she died.

Yang Di held his mother's urn, left the shadow of the building, and walked towards the outside of Heaven Dou City.

Yang Jie, who did not hide himself, was naturally immediately looked at by many eyes, and all kinds of small words came from the surroundings,

"Where's the little thing? Dressed like this and going out on the street? ”

"What's the matter with this kid, what did he do running out of that place?"

"Slum pariahs? How long has it been since I saw it? ”

。。。。。。

These eyes and words were full of contempt and disgust, and Yang Di didn't find it strange, his appearance naturally caused a stain on this "magnificent and beautiful" Heaven Dou City Avenue.

But Yang Di didn't care about those sights at all, and walked to the door at the normal walking speed of a child.

Yang Di walked to the gate, and the guards guarding the gate also cast their eyes, but their eyes were more surprised.

They had all seen people from the slums leave Heaven Dou City on their own initiative, but both men and women were adults.

And they all leave the city when the doors open early in the morning or when the doors are about to close in the evening, and these guards estimate that the people in the slums have low self-esteem and dare not appear in front of too many people.

But this time it was different, it was actually a child who wanted to go out of the city, and it was almost noon to go out of the city, which was very strange.

These soldiers were not nobles and high-class people, and they had more pity for the people in the slums.

The captain who was the leader of the guards saw Yang Lu walking towards the main entrance, and he was also puzzled, and stepped forward and asked:

"Kid, why did you come here alone? Yours...... ”

The captain of the guard wanted to ask where Yang Jie's parents were, but when Yu Guang glanced at the jar in Yang Jie's hand and the word "mother" on it, he was immediately silent, and he didn't know how to continue.

The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, this guard captain is here to care about his child, Yang Di naturally treats him politely, looks up and says politely:

"Uncle, I want to bury my mother outside the city, can you let me out?"

The captain of the guard looked at Yang Jie's dusty face and his eyes, which seemed very godless compared to his peers, even if the captain of the guard was a well-informed old man, he felt heartache.

"Of course, when the time comes, just come back and talk to your uncle." The captain of the guard actually wants to send Yang to a suitable place for burial, but he has the duty of being the captain of the guard, and all he can do is open a back door for the child.

Yang Jiegang was still a little surprised by the words of the guards he heard, according to what he had heard in the slums over the years, the guards of Heaven Dou City had never opened the back door to anyone, and he was ready to go down after the burial and climb the wall in the middle of the night before entering.

But when I think about my current physical age, it is normal, in any world, as long as it is not a troubled world, children are always easy to be taken care of.

"Thank you, uncle." Yang said thank you, didn't say much, did more, hugged the jar, and walked out of Heaven Dou City for the first time in his life.

The air outside the city is no different from the inside of the city, but seeing a different scenery again after six years, Yang Jie's heart is still a little touched.

Heaven Dou City is the capital of a country, and the war generally does not affect this place, so there is no need to clear the wilderness.

Therefore, as Yang Di learned in the slums, except for the avenue and the hundreds of meters around the city, there are lush trees, forming an endless forest, and even from the avenue, the end of the forest cannot be seen at all.

After walking five or six hundred meters into the forest, Yang Di chose a relatively flat place with soft soil, and dug a small pit with his bare hands to put the jar down.

After Yang Ti buried his mother's ashes, he took a small stone and carved his mother's name on another larger stone, and finally inserted it on the ground, which was regarded as a monument.

Staring at the humble tombstone in front of him, Yang Di couldn't help but recall the memories of his coming to this world.
