Wangu Long Zun Jue

Chapter 198 The Shy Little Sissi
In the end, the three of Chen Long lived in this farmhouse. Although the two elders' home was not luxurious, there were still a few simple rooms enough for them to live in.

The two old people also specially prepared meals for Chen Long. While waiting for the meals, the door of a room was ajar, and an eight or nine-year-old girl was timidly peeking at Chen Long from the crack of the door. Obviously, this little girl was a little shy .

"Cissy, hurry up and serve tea to the guests." The mother-in-law came in with a plate of tea and shouted to the room.

The little girl came out timidly, and stared at Chen Long in fear when she came out.

"Come on, serve these cups of tea to the guests. Grandma is going to light the fire and cook." The mother-in-law said as she handed the cups of tea to the little girl.

The little girl was holding the tea, but she didn't dare to approach Chen Long.

Chen Long smiled at the little girl and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"

The little girl was so frightened that she put down her tea and ran back to her room.

"Alas..." the mother-in-law sighed, and brought the tea to Chen Long herself, "Don't take offense, my lord, the reason why Qian Qian is so timid is because she was frightened when she was a child. She saw her father and mother killed by soldiers, and since then she has become very shy and never spoke again."

"I saw my parents were killed with my own eyes, what's going on?" Chen Long asked.

"It seems that you are not from our Golden Autumn Kingdom, so you don't know the situation in our country. The Golden Autumn Kingdom has always had heavy taxes. We ordinary bosses who have not practiced are often punished because we can't pay taxes. Three years ago, the drought, almost Destroyed our family’s crops, couldn’t pay the taxes back then, and as a result my son and daughter-in-law were beaten alive... Alas..." The mother-in-law's face was full of tears.

Zheng Hu was furious immediately, clenched his fists and said, "It's normal for a country to have taxes, but they can't plunder without restraint like this. Knowing that they can't pay the taxes because of the drought, they beat two people to death. This golden autumn The rulers of the country are really unscrupulous, damn it!"

"Hush! Young Master, don't say this again, if other people hear it, you will be killed!" The mother-in-law was frightened when she heard Zheng Hu's words, for fear of being heard by others.

"Mother-in-law, don't be afraid. If they dare to cause trouble, I will drive them away." Zheng Hu vowed.

"Although the son is physically strong and a martial artist, but there are many soldiers in the Jinqiu Kingdom, it's better not to provoke him." The mother-in-law shook her head.

Zheng Hu shrugged and didn't say anything else, after all, he couldn't care less about this matter.

The little girl Cici shut herself in her room all the time, and only came out to eat under her grandmother's persuasion until it was time to eat.

However, when eating, they still kept a distance from Chen Long, as if they were afraid of being eaten by Chen Long.

Regarding this, Chen Long was also helpless, did he have a monster growing on his face?
However, Chen Long still looked at Qian Qian with a smile on his face. Suddenly, Chen Long seemed to think of something, and took out a piece of jade from the storage space opened by the Golden Dragon Ring.

After taking out the jade stone, Chen Long condensed the true energy in his palm and used the talisman technique to carve a wave of true energy into the jade stone, and then carved a miniature array inside, then threaded a rope, and then threaded the rope The jade stone was handed to Sissy.

"Sissi, this piece of jade is given to you. You can wear it around your neck in the future. As long as you call out 'Dragon Zun', it will protect you and your grandparents. Of course, you must call out the word Long Zun. Otherwise, it won't work, you know?" Chen Long reminded when handing the jade over.

Qianqian didn't dare to reach out to accept it, Chen Long took the initiative to stand up and put the jade on Qianqian.

Qianqian originally wanted to run away, but Chen Long helped her put it on before she escaped, which made Qianqian stunned for a moment.

"My lord, this jade is too precious..."

"It's just a piece of ordinary jade, just treat it as a gift for Sissi." Chen Long waved his hand in disapproval, then continued to look at Sissy, "Sissy, remember what I told you, you must call Long Zun when you are in danger, Only in this way can we escape from danger, you know?"

Sissy glanced at the jade on her neck, and finally nodded hesitantly. Although she was still afraid of Chen Long at this time, she was not afraid to face Chen Long as before.

In fact, the jade on Qianqian's neck is engraved with a high-level counterattack talisman seal technique, and then blessed with a gathering spirit array, which can continuously absorb the surrounding spiritual power, and can activate the counterattack talisman seal technique at critical moments. It seems that it is just a small jade, at least it can create an attack at the concentration level.

Of course, Sissy didn't know these things, and she was skeptical about Yushi's ability to protect herself.

"The officers and soldiers are coming, the officers and soldiers are coming!!!"

At this moment, shouts sounded outside the door, obviously people in the village were announcing others.

Hearing the shout, the faces of the two elders changed drastically, and they hurriedly cleared the table and said to Chen Long: "Several, please go to the room to hide for a while, if the officers and soldiers find out that we will definitely increase the tax for taking in passers-by, as we are now The situation is simply unbearable.”

"What are you afraid of? With us here, you will be fine." Zheng Hu patted his chest with a confident face.

"Even if we're fine this time, we still have something to do when you leave. I hope you can understand and go into the room to hide."

Zheng Hu wanted to say something else, but Chen Long stopped him, shook his head and said, "Grandmother is right, we can keep it for a while, but not for a lifetime, so let's go into the house and avoid it, so as not to cause trouble to them."

"Okay, then go into the house and avoid it." Zheng Hu said helplessly.

Afterwards, Chen Long and others entered the room to temporarily avoid the limelight, and soon, a group of officers and soldiers rushed into the room, just as the food on the table had just been cleaned up.

"Old Liu, it's already the time for this month's exorbitant tax, and you didn't take the initiative to pay it. It's too much! Now hand it over immediately!" A general shouted with a sneer on his face.

"Guan Ye, our family is really a big burden, we can only collect it slowly, now we finally got it all together, and we are going to send it over, so the Guan Ye came directly." As he said, Old Liu took out the bag from his arms. A parcel was brought out with some silver in it.

The general grabbed the silver taels directly, then opened the package to look at it, frowned and said, "There's only 80 taels of silver here, old Liu, there's still 50 taels of silver left, are you trying to send the beggar away?"

"My lord, every month is 80 taels, why is there a difference of 50 taels?"

"It is indeed 80 taels per month, but your family has been behind for many days, and the interest has to be calculated together. There is still a difference of 50 taels. Hurry up and hand over the money."

Lao Liu became anxious immediately, and argued: "We are only a day late, how could there be so much interest, we don't have any..."

"Don't talk nonsense, or you will be punished. Since you can't afford it, then use your granddaughter to pay off the debt!" The general immediately pointed at Qianqian and shouted, his eyes full of sinister looks.

"No, absolutely not! I will never allow you to hurt Sissi!"
