Asking for Immortality in Another World

"Hey, have you heard? These people are all refugees from Yunchen and Chenzhou."

"Yes, look, this kid is so young, he is almost starving to skin and bones! How much suffering he has suffered along the way..."

"There is a part of Qingzhou between our Yuzhou and these two states! If you calculate it this way, it must be 1,300 to 400 miles, and this is still the least!"

"Alas... the world is like this now..."

"Alas..."

After Gu Changsheng came out of his house, he didn't walk far and found that there were many more refugees on the street.

Each one was dirty, some were still leaning on a wooden stick, with a child in their arms, their eyes were numb, and they leaned on the roadside. They were all equally weak, ragged, and skinny.

Some were lying, some were sitting, and only when they saw someone coming, a trace of pleading could burst out from their numb eyes.

Seeing that there was a crowd of people discussing in front of him, he went over and stood at the back of the crowd to listen for a while, and then he basically understood.

Gu Changsheng frowned, and a piece of news from a few months ago flashed in his mind. In the eighteenth year of Emperor Anping, that is, this year, there was a severe drought in Yunchen and Chenzhou!

I thought it had nothing to do with Yuzhou, but I didn't expect the situation to be so serious.

And listening to the discussion among the crowd, in fact, the most important thing is not only natural disasters, but also man-made disasters, otherwise the situation would not be so bad.

However, everyone was silent, and only dared to say a few words, and then they didn't dare to continue talking. When they looked at each other, they showed sympathetic eyes and sighed from time to time.

That's what it means. The water here is very deep, and it is hard to grasp. I can't say more. I can only say that I understand.

It is estimated that many people, like Gu Changsheng, are secretly cursing the "dog emperor" in their hearts.

A sudden heavy rain last night made things worse.

Many people can be seen lying on the ground, breathing out more than breathing in.

"Please be kind, sirs, have pity on my family and buy this child so that we can have some rice soup..."

"Dad, no one will chase us away when we get here, right?"

"Mom, I'm so hungry, mom, mom, why don't you say anything, mom..."

"..."

Gu Changsheng reluctantly turned his head away, with a heavy look on his face.

He sighed in his heart, "There was a great famine, and people ate each other."

If you don't experience it yourself, it would be difficult to understand how painful it is behind these six short words in the history books.

"Dad!"

Suddenly, a cry came from not far away from him, and Gu Changsheng immediately looked sideways.

I saw that in a refugee family, which should be a family, there was a seven or eight-year-old girl in the family. Although she was starving, her facial features could barely be seen to be pretty, and she was picked out by a wealthy family in the city and bought.

After paying the money, the buyer hadn't walked far, and the little girl was still looking back frequently.

And this cry came from the little girl's mouth.

A few strong but idle people, obviously from the city's gangs, were smiling and snatching away most of the money that the family had just sold their daughter for.

The lives of refugees are worthless, and in fact, there is not much money in total, just a few dozen copper coins.

But for refugees, this money is the life-saving money of a family.

Even with this, the gangs in the city actually took away most of it.

Of course, in name, it is not robbery, but regular money. Commonly known as "protection fee".

Even the money that refugees get from selling their children is robbed.

This operation... is really inhuman!

"Alas..." Gu Changsheng sighed secretly and turned away.

At this moment, his understanding of this world is even deeper.

...

Inner city.

Izumo Martial Arts School.

Although there are many martial arts schools of all sizes in Yuzhou City, there are only three famous ones, namely Chuyun, Hanshan, and Benlei.

They are also called One Palm, One Punch, and One Knife.

Chuyun Martial Arts School is the one with the lowest fee among the three martial arts schools, and it is also the most suitable for Gu Changsheng.

Compared with other martial arts schools in Yuzhou City, Chuyun Palm is the least harmful to the body among all martial arts schools. Of course, it is also the most difficult to master.

Perhaps it is for this reason that the fee is relatively low.

And what Gu Changsheng lacks the least is time, and he knows his body very well. Maybe this "relatively" is not so obvious, but this is already his best choice...

The closed red painted door looks very tall, and the two majestic stone lions at the door add a bit of solemnity to the martial arts school.

Gu Changsheng stood in front of the door of the martial arts school, looking at the plaque above his head.

He exhaled lightly and calmed his emotions.

He walked forward and knocked on the door of Chuyun Martial Arts School.

"What are you doing?" Soon, the side door was opened with a gap as big as half a body, and a young warrior showed his head and looked at him with scrutiny.

"I am Gu Changsheng. I heard that Chuyun Martial Arts School has superb martial arts, so I came here to learn martial arts from you!" Gu Changsheng bowed and said politely.

"Tsk..." The young warrior smacked his lips and muttered to himself: "Why are you so literary..."

He looked at Gu Changsheng up and down again and stepped aside: "Come in."

Gu Changsheng remained calm, pretending not to hear, and followed him in.

As soon as he entered the martial arts hall, what he saw was a lot of shirtless big men hammering hard at sandbags, wooden piles, air, or pools.

The sound of palms slicing through the air! The dull sound of flesh and wood colliding! The sound of water hitting water!

For a while, it was heard all the time.

He followed the young warrior through the training ground and stopped in front of a house.

"Senior brother, someone else comes to learn martial arts from me!"

The young man knocked on the door and shouted inside.

"Come in."

A sonorous and powerful voice came from inside the house.

Inside is a separate small training room, with a figure facing away from Gu Changsheng and the young warrior who brought him in.

"Bah bang bang!"

The hands of the owner of that figure were almost turning into afterimages and disappearing, and they were constantly slapping towards a piece of bluestone the size of a human head.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Gu Changsheng actually saw beauty in the hands of the big man that were waving constantly!

It is a kind of ethereal and eerie beauty...

After a few breaths, the owner of the hands finally stopped.

Without even looking at Qingshi, he took a handkerchief from the side and wiped his hands and turned around.

"division……"

"bump!"

Just as the young warrior was about to speak, the bluestone the size of a human head suddenly split into four pieces.

"Hiss..." The young warrior took a deep breath in cooperation, with a face full of admiration. He stepped forward and introduced to Gu Changsheng loudly like a dogleg:

"Have you seen it? This is the second senior brother of our martial arts school - Qi Xiao, senior brother Qi!

Even though Senior Brother Qi is young, he has already entered the ranks of third-rate warriors. He is extremely proficient in using Izumo Palm. Senior Brother Qi is also very famous in the world of Yuzhou!

Known as Qi Xiao, the master of clouds! ! "
