Chapter 313: Surrender and worship
The young man's hand that had just been raised was lowered again, and he looked at the sky with some displeasure, and then said jokingly: "Okay! If you want to help, come and help me kill this old man." ”
The old man had just escaped, and he had already let go of his hand. Hearing the young man say this at this moment, the old man sat down on the ground, supporting his body with both hands, and his legs kept kicking backwards.
His blank gaze turned to the old man, and he saw that his face was full of fear.
Looking at the villagers kneeling not far away again, I saw that some of them were unclothed, and I felt that the conditions here were much worse than those in Qushui Town.
Cang Mang raised his eyebrows, then looked at the young man with a smile and said, "This senior brother, I don't think it's okay." They are so poor that if they receive their food, then they will have no way to live. Besides, these things aren't worth much, aren't they, just hunt a few demon beasts?"
"I said, you kid is sick, you say forget it? They want to eat, don't we want to eat? If we don't accept their things, then what do we eat? Hunt demon beasts, you said it lightly, why should I put what I should take and not take it, and go hunting demon beasts?"
The other party sprayed as soon as he opened his mouth, and Cang Mo was also a little unhappy: "You act like this, don't you care about the sect?"
Several people looked at each other for a moment, and then someone spoke: "Hey, it's really a fledgling rookie!" Senior brother, you are a disciple who has just entered the sect, don't pretend to be high in front of me, you have the ability to help them make up for what they owe!"
Seeing that these people had no fear, and he didn't know what the situation of the Seven Feelings Sect was, he had a plan to calm things down: "How much do they have to offer?"
"Yo, do you really plan to pay for them? It's not much, 500,000 spirit coins. ”
Cang looked at the grain piled up not far away: "These things are not worth 500,000 spirit coins!"
"That's right, so I'm already very merciful, brother. They are short of 500,000 spirit coins for the offering, and I only took away their little things, and they are still not grateful to me, do you say that senior brother, am I a good person?"
Cang Duan sighed helplessly, not wanting to express any opinion on this matter, so he simply took out 500,000 spirit coins and handed them to the young man opposite.
500,000 spirit coins, a drizzle for the vast man, he easily refined a few pills and came back. But these 500,000 spirit coins may be able to save the lives of the people in this village.
The young man took the spirit coin and nodded: "Senior brother is really righteous, yes, senior brothers will leave first." For the sake of the money you helped them give, Senior Brother reminds you that after you arrive at the sect, it is best to keep a low profile. If you should abide by the rules, you will have to suffer. ”
Although the other party's reminder is not good, it is also appreciated.
When you go out and are not familiar with life, you should keep a low profile, so you also replied: "Senior Brother Xie reminds." ”
Seeing several disciples of the Seven Feelings Sect driving the carriage away, the people in the village came over one after another to kneel and kowtow to Cangmang, and said in their mouths: "Living Immortals, thank you Living Immortals." ”
Cang Mang didn't like others kneeling down for him, so he said, "Hurry up, I'm not a living immortal, just a cultivator." This old man, I have something I want to ask you. ”
"My lord, please say, the old man knows everything. ”
Looking at the crowd around him, Cang Man was a little awkward, and then looked at the food piled on the side: "You put these things away first, and then you will come to me at the entrance of the village." ”
The old man beckoned to the rest of the village: "Hurry up, hurry up, each family will bring back the grain." ”
Saying that, the old man himself picked up a bag of grain and turned to leave.
Looking at the busy backs of everyone, Cang Mang and Xiao Huang turned their heads and walked out of the village.
Cang Mo wanted to spend the night in the village, but seeing that the village was so poor, the villagers themselves could not be protected, so they gave up such a plan.
When he came to a clearing outside the village, he took out the cloak and injected spiritual power into it, quickly turning the cloak into a tent.
Xiao Huang and the others didn't care about what happened in the village just now, and at the moment they just urged Cang Mang to let Xiao Hong out to cook.
The spiritual power was injected into the "Five Women's Picture", and Cang Mang just summoned Xiaoqing and Xiaohong out.
The second daughter said respectfully: "Childe." ”
Cang Mang pointed to the few guys in front of him: "Xiaohong, these guys are handed over to you, and the ingredients are taken from Xiao Huang." ”
Xiao Huang and the fire monkey and a few other guys left the sky aside, and surrounded Xiao Hong and Xiao Qing to the open space on the side to make a fire.
Since the Qiankun Gold Medal was changed into a collar and tied to Xiao Huang's neck, most of the food has been transferred to Xiao Huang's Qiankun Gold Medal.
Always have something to eat as a temptation, and Xiao Huang's leadership position in the entire team suddenly rose a few points.
The fire monkeys and a few of them circled around Xiao Huang all day long, trying to get a few fruits from Xiao Huang by offering courtesy.
After a while, the old man had already come to the vast tent: "My lord." ”
Cang got up and walked out of the tent, took out two small stools, and motioned for the old man to sit down and speak.
Cang Mang and the old man chatted about a few people just now, and also talked about the Seven Feelings Sect.
I learned from the old Han that the Seven Feelings Sect was going to collect 500,000 spirit coins from this village this time. The population of this village is not large, there are only more than 20 households in total, and when it is evenly divided, each household has to pay 20,000 or 30,000 spirit coins every year.
This offering is not much to put in other places, especially in Cangmang's eyes, but Cangmang, who has lived in Qushui Town, knows that this money is definitely a big expense for a mortal family.
If it were such a poor village, the money would be really fatal.
"I look at the conditions of your village, and you can't afford this offering at all!"
The old man wiped his tears: "Isn't it? Ten years ago, the annual offering of our whole village was only 100,000 spirit coins, but then it has been rising every year. This year, it has risen to 500,000 spirit coins, and I am afraid it will be even higher next year. Last year, in order to make these offerings, the village sold all the large animals. This year, there is no strong labor, and the weather is bad, and the harvest is not enough for the people in the village to make ends meet, so it is really impossible to pay the offerings. ”
Vast and helpless, ordinary people live by farming, and they really rely on the sky to eat.
When the situation is bad, it is difficult to live, let alone pay for the offering.
Cang Mo thought for a while and asked, "How much income can your village have in a year?"
"Last year, there were cattle to help with the work, and the annual income of the whole village should add up to four or five hundred thousand spirit coins. But this year, the whole village combined is not enough for 100,000 spirit coins. ”
Thinking about it, hasn't this already reached the point where we can't make ends meet? How do you live these days?
The old man continued: "Ten years ago, the situation in the village was not bad, and every household could have a little money to spare, but in the past few years, the worship has increased year by year, and every household has posted it upside down every year. Ten years on, we really don't have it. "Hundred plating, the latest chapter of the "Peerless Soul Seal Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
