Just as the results of the team's investigation, they saw several people in the village, all of them were full of exhaustion.

There's even a bit of twilight.

Some people saw Su Chen from a distance, and they even hurriedly hid.

Su Chen looked at himself, and then at some of the people who were looking at him from afar.

Could it be that you are wearing the wrong clothes?

Some of the people in the village wore long robes and some wore short robes.

Just as Su Chen was still walking slowly through the village, three old men walked towards this side together.

Su Chen stopped, if he was not mistaken, these three old men were coming for him.

"My lord, I'm Gula, the village chief of the Starry Village, is there anything I can do for you?"

It seems to be a courtesy.

Su Chen: "Hello Gula Village Chief, I'm passing by here, just take a look,...... Is that okay?"

Gullah: ...

You've all gone to the village, and you're asking, is it okay?

But it doesn't look like a joke.

It was really Su Chen's serious face, which made the village chief of Gula even more worried.

Su Chen: "I got lost and a few of my subordinates got here, do you have anything to eat?"

Yes!"

the village chief of Gula took Su Chen back to his own house.

A large thatched house.

The thatched hut was packed with people.

Seeing that Su Chen was brought back, the people in the thatched hut knelt down in a panic: "Please beg your lord to spare your life, we don't dare to look at it anymore!"

Su Chen: ...

It's just a little handsome, there's no need to be so exaggerated, right?

Looking at the village chief of Gula with a bitter face on the side: "This is?" Gura village chief

hurriedly said: "This lord is passing by, not from the shop, you go to Huo Janes' house next door to make something to eat, and the lord and his subordinates will sit down for a while and eat some food and leave!"

"Ahhh Okay, grandpa!" The one who spoke was a young man about twelve or thirteen years old, his name was Gu Jingli, and when Su Chen looked at him, the young man suddenly ran out nervously.

I almost tripped over the threshold when I went out.

The village chief of Gula pointed at them and said, "Don't mind your lordship, the village is scared by the people in the shop

!" "I'm sorry I caused you trouble!" Su Chen said very sincerely.

But it was the village chief of Gula who stood up in fright: "It's an honor for our village that you can come to our village!"

Su Chen was puzzled again.

It's just a kind word, is it necessary to be so nervous?Gula

Village Chief explained Su Chen's confusion: "The shop is opened by the Magic Guild, and we must hand in a sufficient amount of spirit stones or food every year, our people here are the most wasteful magicians, only suitable for planting spirit plants, spirit plants are the cheapest, whether it is for changing spirit stones or food, it is impossible to make ends meet!"

If the amount paid by the village is insufficient, there will be adults who will be taken away to work, but they have never been taken away and never returned, and now, we are the only ones left in the village!"

That is, Hojans next door is the only adult man in the village.

It's not that Hojans is an exception, but that he lost an arm when he was a child, and the people in the shop disliked him for not being able to work, so they brushed him off when they accepted people.

Su Chen: "... Then you live by planting

spiritual plants?" "Sort of, spiritual plants can't fill their stomachs, so they walk more than ten kilometers to a market on the other side of the shop to exchange for food, and barely make a living! But it's winter soon, and the shops are closed in winter, so you can't change it!" "

Every winter, there are very few people in the village who survive!" As

he spoke, the village chief of Gula twisted his head to the side.

Don't let Su Chen see the tears he couldn't help but shed.

The most people die every year are the old people and children in the village.

But there is no way, there is no food, even if you don't go out, stay at home, and have nothing to eat, you will starve to death.

After a while, Gu Jingli brought a few half-old children over to bring the food.

A large pot of boiled black paste vegetable porridge.

A large pot of boiled clear soup with water.

A large pot of boiling hot green water is said to be tea.

Su Chen looked at these foods, and his temples jumped a little happily.

"These?" Can you eat your stomach?

But thinking about what the village chief of Gula said just now, Su Chen swallowed back the words that followed.

Gu Jingli's feet that had been retreating stopped when he heard this: "These are the rations for our family for the next ten days, if you eat it, we will be hungry for ten days, and you still dislike it!"

Su Chen: "What did you say?"

Ten days of rations?

That's it

, let alone a family, even Su Chen himself is not enough.

No, just the vegetable soup in front of me, I can't eat enough for two days.

And this family, no wonder they would starve to death?

The village chief of Gula was frightened by Su Chen's surprise.

I thought that Su Chen was angry because of Gu Jingli's words.

The last time the shopkeepers were angry, several lives in the village were reduced to ashes.

Putong knelt down for Su Chen: "My lord, Gu Jingli didn't mean to offend you, please forgive me, I still have a special spirit plant left here for your lord, please laugh

!"

"Grandpa, that's our annual payment, you gave it to him, we will die if we can't pay the annual payment!" Gu Jingli thought about the appearance of the villagers who were beaten to death because of the insufficient confession he saw at that time, and his whole little face couldn't help but show a look of fear.

That scene he will never forget in his life.

"You... Shut up!" Silly boy.

The annual payment will take two months, and it is possible to hand it in if you think about it.

But if they offend this lord now, their family will die now.

Although Su Chen didn't make a move, he didn't say anything to scare them.

But Su Chen's aura was there.

What's more, Su Chen said that there are subordinates, and only people with big forces such as trade unions will have subordinates.

The village chief of Gula has lived for such an age, and he has seen too many people who die if they don't agree with each other.

He didn't want to see the village just give it an account.

Therefore, he took out the annual payment, although this annual payment was not enough.

"Get up!" Su Chen said helplessly, he really didn't mean anything else, he was just a little shocked, but it seemed that the grandfather and grandson were not lightly frightened.

I don't know what kind of terrifying existence that that shop can scare the people in the village like this?

The village chief of Gula was still kneeling on the ground, and he didn't dare to get up.

Su Chen didn't dare to pull hard, after all, he was so old.

There's a good one, and it's even more inexplicable.

He took the things in the hands of the village chief of Gula: "I took it, you can get up

!" "Thank you, for your understanding!"

Su Chen: I accepted your things, and you have to thank me!
