After seeing that the child was asleep, the woman took Lin Xing and the two of them up to the first floor again.

By the candlelight of the basement, the woman took out half a small candle in a closet, and lit the candle with a little in her right hand.

The woman turned out to be a fire-based magician, and it seemed that she was at least a cultivator above the Juyuan Realm.

The woman held the candle in her left hand and blocked it with her right hand, and continued to walk towards the second floor.

For some reason, Lin Xing actually felt that the woman's movements seemed to be blocking the candlelight, although the light was so dim.

There were three rooms on the second floor of the small building, and the woman opened the door to one of the rooms and walked in.

Lin Xing and the two walked in, only to feel that the room was extremely simple.

Two heaps of thatch lay on the ground, barely enough to get into bed.

The only thing left that can be called furniture is a wooden wardrobe that has been covered with dust.

On the wall next to it, you can faintly see a photo hanging on it.

Because of the light, I could only see half of it, it was a woman and a boy, and the smiles were so bright.

Compared with the woman with a sad face now, if it weren't for the photo appearing in this home, it would be impossible to imagine that this is the same person.

I don't know if it's because of some hunchback, the woman's body is slightly arched, and the white hair on her head makes the woman look older.

The woman pointed to the straw bed and said apologetically.

"Two guests, I'm really embarrassed to let you live in this kind of place."

Tao Zhengwen himself was a little arrogant, and without saying anything, he took off the rain cloth on his body and hung it on the stairs outside the house.

While taking off his coat, he walked to the straw bed in the back, and fell asleep like this, and after a while the snoring sounded.

Seeing this, Lin Xing glanced at the woman apologetically, pretending to take it out of the inner bag of the clothes, but in fact took out a silver coin from the storage ring and handed it to the woman.

"Madam, this is our accommodation fee for tonight."

The woman didn't see what Lin Xing took out at first, but when she looked closer, she found that it was a silver coin, so she was so frightened that she took a few steps back and refused again and again.

"No, no, no, it's too expensive for us to bear."

Seeing the woman's resignation, Lin Xing had an idea, took out a loaf of bread from the ring, and stuffed it to the woman.

When the woman saw the bread, she subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and it had been an unknown amount of time since the last time she saw the bread.

stretched out his hand several times, but took it back, and in the end, Lin Xing forcibly stuffed the bread into the woman's hand.

The woman took the bread in her hand, devoured it, and after taking two bites, the woman felt that her vision was blurred, raised her hand and wiped it, it turned out that tears flowed down unconsciously.

After two bites, the woman slipped the bread into her pocket without a trace.

"You two stay here tonight, don't turn on the lights, don't make too much noise, please!"

With that, the woman prepared to leave.

"Excuse me, what's going on in Qingniu Town, why do you look like this, well, poor?"

The woman looked back at Lin Xing, her hand that was not holding the candle, clenched and relaxed, repeated it several times, and finally said a word.

"Perhaps, this is fate."

With that, he walked out of the room, slamming the door shut, followed by footsteps.

"This Qingniu Town is really not simple, I haven't heard of cultivators in the Juyuan Realm anywhere who have such a hard time, and they can't afford to eat a single loaf of bread."

Although Lin Xing didn't have a habit of cleanliness, he was really worried that the straw bed that had not been used for so long would have any strange insects, and in the end he still couldn't sleep.

"I was given a loaf of bread just now, and I should have given him a few more plots to see if I could do it."

As soon as he patted the door of his head, Lin Xing opened the door and went downstairs lightly.

But as soon as he walked to the first floor, Lin Xing heard the sound of two people arguing.

Although the two of them were very emotional, they controlled their voices very low, obviously not the first time they had quarreled like this.

However, Rao is Lin Xing has good hearing, and he only heard the words "god", "identity", and "punishment" clearly.

After listening for a while, Lin Xing heard a "pop", followed by a woman's scream of "ouch".

If nothing else, it should have been the woman who was slapped in the face.

"Slut! How dare you be disrespectful to God! Are you tired of being crooked? ”

This made the two of them emotional, and Lin Xing finally heard it clearly.

"Honey, let's run! Leaving this city, I can't stand it, I can't stand it for a day, the child has nothing to eat for a day and a half, if it wasn't for the neighbor's uncle who gave me a little bit of food today, I really don't know... ”

Listening to the woman's voice, the man seemed to soften a lot, but his words were still firm.

"We have survived for so long, as long as it takes more than ten days, on the first of next month, God will come down and wash away the sins in the world, and when the time comes, our family can live a good life!"

Just as Lin Xing was still thinking about the meaning of the so-called "divine descent" and "washing", he heard the footsteps of "dong dong dong", and it seemed that a woman ran up from the basement.

The man chased after him, and just walked to the first floor, he was stunned by Lin Xing's slap from behind and fell to the ground.

Hearing the movement behind her, the woman hurriedly looked back, but saw Lin Xing standing at the door of the basement, with her husband on the ground.

But the woman didn't blame Lin Xing as Lin Xing imagined, and there was a sense of relief in her expression.

"Well, I guess we can talk, okay?"

Seeing this, the woman wiped the tears from her face and nodded.

"Go upstairs and talk about it, it's going to be a problem to wake up the kid."

Lin Xing nodded, and took out a night pearl from the ring, the brightness was not too high, and the lighting was just right at this time.

The two came to the upstairs room, and the woman was a little embarrassed and overwhelmed when she saw that the room was so simple, but Lin Xing beckoned the woman to sit on the thatched bed.

"Sitting on it should be the maximum I can accept." Lin Xing secretly thought in his heart.

"You two aren't ordinary people, are you? It's been years since a stranger has come in from Green Cow Town. ”

"We are indeed not ordinary people, strictly speaking, we are the ones who have come to save you."

After listening to Lin Xing's words, the woman snorted with some disdain.

"Just the two of you? Although I don't know the specific realms of the two of you, it shouldn't be beyond the Ming Mind Realm, right? ”

Lin Xing nodded, there was really no need to hide this kind of thing.

"The Heavenly God Sect in Qingniu Town, the ordinary deacons are all cultivators of the Juyuan Realm, the sacrifices above are all cultivators above the Tongzhi Realm, and the bishops above this are all cultivators of the Ming Mind Realm, how can you save us?"

After listening to the woman's words, Lin Xing could only smile awkwardly.

"Actually, the two of us were sent to find out the news, you can tell me the specific situation, we will go out of the city tomorrow, and we will report it to the top immediately."

"Reflect? Do you think no one has been? There was a person in our town who was a cultivator of the Genius Academy, but what was the result? He went to the Genius Academy to report this matter, what was the use, and even after that, the people in his family disappeared. ”

"Hiss"

At this moment, Lin Xing really felt that it was tricky, the hand of this Heavenly God Sect was inevitably stretched too long, and the Genius Academy could manage it?

"Maybe it was stopped on the road, otherwise, this matter would have been a big deal."

Lin Xing could only comfort himself like this.

"Once, when I went to the town church to pray, I heard a name, and I wondered if it would help you in your investigation."

"What's the name?"

"Church of the Scourge."
