Outworld: Rise of an Industrial Empire
Chapter 119
Pedestrians passed by on the road, and Lu Feng walked on the street like a walking corpse.
The feelings of childhood sweethearts can't resist the temptation of aristocratic status, and no matter how deep their feelings are, they can't resist the attraction of hanging the name of a magician.
Only by becoming a member of a noble family can you be eligible to go to Middle-earth and be eligible to awaken magic. Even if such an awakening is meaningless, because there is no way to cultivate, even if it is a great magician, the strength will only regress, and in the end, the combat power is no different from that of ordinary people.
What's more, these Xizhou people have not been bathed in magic since they were children, and it is even more difficult to even awaken to become trainee magicians, most of them are just awakening to become magic schoolchildren, and then they can be called magicians. Therefore, it is simply gilded, and it is just a vain name.
But with the title of magician, he is half a nobleman in Xizhou, and even more noble than a nobleman.
However, for the mortals of Xizhou, the temptation of the dual titles of nobles + magicians is really very, very big.
Lu Feng walked aimlessly, his eyes were empty, his childhood sweetheart suddenly announced that he wanted to marry someone else, how could he accept .....
Before he knew it, he had walked to the outskirts of the inner city, passing by a factory full of smoke, outside which was full of beggars, and a few of them lay motionless on the ground, allowing mosquitoes to crawl on his body.
They stared at the factory, even if the factory only gave them a mouthful of food, they could work hard, day and night, like a slave...... No, they are slaves, they are not even as good as slaves, and at this time, as long as they are given a mouthful of food, they can willingly sell themselves into slavery.
Lu Feng suddenly came back to his senses, looked around, and saw the scene in front of him, and then he fell into deep thought again.
His hands gradually clenched, the green tendons on his arms flare, and his lips trembled uncontrollably.
Why is this world so unfair
? Why? Lu Feng couldn't understand why this world was like this? Why were some people born destined
to be ants? Could it be that nobles were born noble? Could it be that commoners were born slaves and beasts of nobles?
After staring at the spot in a daze for a moment, Lu Feng came back to his senses again, and looking at these beggars, he suddenly had a feeling of sympathy.
For the first time, he felt pity for these beggars, and perhaps he had pity before, but he had never had mercy.
He took some copper coins out of his clothes and threw them to the beggars one by one.
When these beggars saw the copper coins, they immediately boiled, and all but two who were lying down and had already stinked were excited.
After getting the copper coin, they kowtowed to Lu Feng a few times, and then rushed towards a tea shop in the distance.
Seeing this, the owner of the tea shop hurriedly took out an iron sword from the house, aimed it at them in a panic, and scolded them. However, when he saw the copper coins they were holding in their hands, the boss's eyes lit up, and he immediately put away his iron sword, and he didn't care about their dirty bodies, and immediately showed a smile.
"Hey..."
Looking at these excited beggars, Lu Feng sighed and was stunned again, he could still pity these poor beggars, but no one had pity him..... Nobles will not have mercy on commoners!
"
Young man...."Suddenly, someone slapped at Lu Feng, he hurriedly turned his head and saw a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man smiled
at Lu Feng, looked Lu Feng up and down, and then said to Lu Feng: "I see that your bones are amazing, it is a good material!"
Lu Feng also looked at him, this person was wearing a gray T-shirt from the Federation, although the T-shirt looked very clean, but the dirt on it was still clearly visible, his face was rough, but his body was slightly fat, it could be ruled out that he was a beggar, like a miner.
"Young man... Are you feeling confused about your current life?"
The middle-aged man suddenly asked Lu Feng with a serious face, Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, and nodded slightly.
"You are not happy with your current situation, aren't you?" the
middle-aged man asked again, Lu Feng was a little puzzled, but still nodded.
The middle-aged man smiled, took out a book, handed it to Lu Feng and said
, "Come! I'll give you a cheatbook, child, take a good look!" In Lu Feng's
confused eyes, he left without looking back.
Lu Feng was stunned in place, looking down at the book in his hand, the book was very tattered, there were no words on the cover, and it was also blank.
He turned the first page, the handwriting on it was obvious, and every word was neat, this was the title page of the book, and there was only one paragraph on it: "Life is like the ocean, only the strong-willed can reach the other side."
Seeing this, he smiled bitterly, and he suddenly had a new understanding, life is an abyss, and it is impossible for civilians to escape.
Then Lu Feng turned to the catalog page again, and after looking at it a few times, his eyes were a little shocked, and he was soon attracted by the content inside.
After a while, the beggars returned to their places with full of food, and then they all knelt down towards Lu Feng with a plop, and kept kowtowing to thank him for saving his life.
But Lu Feng looked at the book in his hand in a daze at this time, ignoring the situation of the people around him.
Lu Feng squatted at the gate of the factory like this, looking at the book, and the beggars around him didn't know why, several beggars stepped forward, looked at the book full of words, they scratched their heads, and shook their heads at the companions around them for unknown reasons.
Soon after, a carriage stopped in front of them, and the anxious coachman looked at Lu Feng carefully, and after confirming that it was Lu Feng, he breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly walked up to
Lu Feng and said, "Young Master, I finally found you, why did you come here......"
Lu Feng was interrupted by a voice, and then he came back to his senses, he glanced at the book again, did not explain too much, but took a deep breath and stepped into the carriage.
The groom also breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his head away in the carriage.
Many beggars stood up and begged Lu Feng to take them away, they could be slaves, and they could do any hard work.
But Lu Feng's carriage did not stop, and quickly moved away from them, and they finally had to give up and returned to the factory gate, begging the factory to take them in.
The carriage came into a small courtyard, and when it saw the carriage returning, a middle-aged woman came out of the main house with a handkerchief.
"Son, you're back... Hey..."
The middle-aged woman smiled at Lu Feng, but Lu Feng ignored it, walked back to her room directly, and locked herself up.
At this time, a middle-aged man also walked out, and the middle-aged woman hurriedly said to the middle-aged man:
"Oh, Feng'er shouldn't already know, right?"
It could be .... The
middle-aged man sighed, shook his head, and walked towards the main house.
The
middle-aged woman hurriedly wanted to enter the house, but was stopped by the middle-aged man:
"Give him someone to be quiet..... Hey...."
They had already heard the news that Lu Feng's childhood sweetheart girl was going to marry someone else, but they kept dragging it out and didn't tell Lu Feng.
Lu Feng and her are childhood sweethearts who grew up together, the relationship between the two has always been very good, and the two are also very compatible, and even Lu Feng's family background is a little more solid.
But no matter how much money the commoners have, they are still untouchables, how can there be the temptation of aristocrats.
What's more, the Murong family is not just a nobleman, but also a super family in Xuanwudu, and the fraction of the family's property is much more than that of a wealthy businessman.
