The two of them walked out of the cave together, and Xue Lai suddenly asked again.
They walked out of the empty hall and came to the tunnel.
Although it was the polar night, the brightness outside the cave was still higher than that inside the cave, which had no light at all. A little light filtered in from the entrance of the cave.
Colin paused for a moment and did not answer.
Xue Lai looked at the dark night outside the cave and continued:
"Those pure-blood families are destined to be noble when they are born, but the people of Gubei Village are born like dirt. However, in essence, their souls all have the same weight."
Standing behind Xue Lai, Colin couldn't see her expression clearly. He thought for a while and said:
"In a world where great power is its own, these things are bound to happen."
Xue Lai looked back at Colin, paused for a moment and said: "You are right, maybe there are no gods, no wizards, no monsters and weirdness... everyone is ordinary, and this world may be better."
"Maybe not." Colin shook his head, his tone erratic.
Xue Lai did not refute, but looked at Shen Chenheiye again, stopped for a moment and then continued walking forward:
"Let's go and see the Gubei Village you mentioned."
………………
Gubei Village.
The snowstorm has stopped, but the villagers are still busy.
"Quick! Try harder!"
Next to the ruins of an igloo, the village chief Hunter directed several villagers in front of him, lifted a huge ice block and shouted loudly: "I have seen him!"
"Hey!" As several villagers grunted, the huge ice block was suddenly lifted up, and the village chiefs Hunter and Robin who were watching on the side hurriedly pulled out the man underneath.
A dark red mark suddenly formed on the snow. Hunter took a closer look and realized that the man's calf was already like a lake of flesh and blood.
He sighed and handed the unconscious man to Robin beside him.
When the latter saw the man's flesh-molded calf, he shrank slightly and couldn't help but gasp.
After a while, Robin reached out and pressed the fingers hanging outside his clothes, gritted his teeth, and carried the man onto the sleigh next to him.
After doing this, he watched the village chief of Hante lead the villagers to the next ruins.
Looking away, Robin took a deep breath, picked up the rope of the sleigh and put it on himself, strode away the white mist he had just breathed out, and ran towards the dome house not far away.
The only doctor in the village is rescuing several seriously injured villagers found earlier. All he needs to do is transport the newly rescued injured there and gather them together to wait for further treatment.
After all, Robin is still just a teenager. He is only fourteen years old this year. His body has not fully grown and his strength is not strong. After running for a while while holding his breath in his heart, his speed gradually slowed down.
He tried hard to control his breathing and not to inhale too much cold air from the outside in a short period of time, otherwise he would freeze his nasal cavity.
Robin held up the hat on his head, raised his head slightly, and cast his eyes on the watchtower not far away. He could vaguely see the wizard named Dempsey observing the surroundings.
Robin thought to himself, if this adult could come to help like he did before, maybe they would have searched all the ruins long ago.
But Lord Dempsey said that he needed to be vigilant around him to prevent the ice and snow monster from coming back again.
But obviously the last time the ice monster appeared again, Dempsey was not seen at all.
Instead, the moment before entering the igloo, Robin saw several black shadow-like figures coming forward...
Later, after asking the village chief, he found out that it might be a mysterious helper left by another wizard.
'It would be nice if another wizard was here. With two people, maybe one of them can help us.'
Withdrawing his gaze, Robin looked at the dying man lying on the sleigh behind him, only to find that the man's complexion had turned ashen.
Robin's expression suddenly changed, he quickly stopped and leaned down to feel his breathing.
After a moment, he straightened up and without any time to pay attention to anything else, he grabbed the traction rope in front of his chest with both hands and ran forward with all his strength.
"Huchi - Huchi -"
Robin was out of breath as he ran. The cold air was like a sharp knife, entering from the nasal cavity, along the trachea and into the lungs. Before reaching his destination, he slipped and fell twice.
Fortunately, he arrived successfully in the end, and the villagers guarding the door saw his hurried steps and came to meet him from a distance.
"Hurry... help him quickly." Robin bent down and propped up his knees, gasping for breath, and pointed at the man on the sled next to him.
The two villagers who came in didn't say much. One took off the rope pulling the sleigh from Robin's body and put it on himself, while the other followed behind the sled and pushed hard.
Robin stood there gasping for breath, feeling his lungs stinging, as if they were about to burst from the cold air, and his heart was pounding.
He looked up and watched the sleigh go away, coughed a few times, straightened up and followed it.
winter.
The sleigh stopped at the door of the igloo.
"Quick, carry him in together." The villager in front took off the rope around his body and said hurriedly.
He walked to the cart and was about to grab the man's legs and lift him up, but he saw his companion slowly raised his head and said in shock: "Goss, he seems to be dead."
Goss was stunned for a moment, his eyes fell on the man's livid face, and then looked at his flesh-and-blood calf. He lifted a corner of his hat, leaned down and put his exposed ears to the man's mouth and nose.
After a long time, Goss stood up silently.
The short and fat companion looked at the man's flesh-moulded calf, sighed and said:
"It's good to be dead, otherwise you'll suffer even if you're alive."
As for Robin, he was standing blankly in the snow not far away, watching this scene.
A crystal snowflake swirled and landed on the tip of his nose, but it did not melt immediately - the tip of his nose was almost as cold as the snowflake and was on the verge of necrosis.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Whoosh!
"Lord Colin, you are back!"
At this time, a joyful and flattering voice reached Robin's ears.
He turned his head blankly and looked around. On the watchtower not far away, Dempsey flew up and quickly rushed towards Colin in mid-air.
"My mission is also completed, the ice and snow monster has been completely eliminated." Colin said calmly, his eyes swept towards his feet and caught a glimpse of the familiar boy.
"Already solved?!" Dempsey looked surprised, his heart finally relieved.
"Sir, you are indeed very powerful. From what I heard, it seems that there is a new ice and snow monster coming from behind?"
"Well, there are two in total, and they have been solved." Colin didn't hide anything. Demps had been hiding in the igloo anyway. He only knew that there was an extra ice and snow monster, but he didn't know that there were two extra ice monsters.
A level of ice and snow monster.
"As expected of you, sir, but I didn't expect there to be two ice and snow monsters..." Dempsey looked at the night sky in the distance, with a hint of worry on his face.
"Don't worry, there are only two ice and snow monsters in total." Colin glanced at him and landed towards the ground.
"What are you doing here?" Colin asked aloud as he landed next to Robin.
Although he was questioning the young man, his attention was focused on the corner of his eye, where he could see nothing but air with the naked eye.
But Colin knew that Xue Lai was standing there with his figure hidden at the moment, standing next to the young man.
Robin seemed to have still not recovered. It was not until Colin's voice reached his ears that he suddenly woke up. He subconsciously clasped the fingers hanging on his chest, pursed his lips and said:
"Dear Wizard, I just brought a survivor who was rescued from the ruins and came here for treatment."
"Have you finished the search and rescue yet?" Colin asked. He looked at the boy's red nose and waved his hand gently.
Dempsey on the side stiffened slightly when he heard Colin's question, and looked at Colin cautiously.
However, Colin didn't pay attention to him and just looked at the boy.
"Ah sneeze!"
Robin felt a sudden warmth coming from his body, dispelling the coldness in his lungs, and spreading to the tip of his nose, causing him to sneeze uncontrollably.
"Thank you, sir!"
After a moment, Robin reacted and touched his nose, which had regained consciousness, and quickly thanked Colin.
"You're welcome." Colin waved his hand. It was just a small matter. He never hesitated to do these little things.
In the past, when he was "poor", he could only take care of himself. Although he is far from being "advantaged" now, he at least has some strength.
Robin calmed down and continued to answer: "There were too many collapsed igloos. Even though the village chief had brought all the people who were not mining there to rescue them, they had only just finished searching them.
Now we are searching one by one to see if there are any survivors buried under the collapsed igloos."
"Is there anyone else mining now?" Colin was stunned, catching the information in the young man's words, and asked.
"Yes, sir." Robin nodded, "There is not much food in the village, and there are many other things, such as salt, etc. You need to rely on blue cold crystals to go to the stronghold to exchange them. If you don't dig enough before the cold night comes,
Lan Hanjing, it’s hard for the village to survive.”
After saying that, Robin subconsciously glanced at Dempsey next to him, hesitated for a moment and suddenly knelt down towards Colin, buried his forehead in the snow, and asked in a low voice:
"Dear Wizard, I wonder if you have time and can you help us with the search and rescue."
"Okay." Colin pulled the young man up by his collar. With a thought, he smiled at the young man and said, "I have sent them over to help."
The shadow behind him twisted for a moment, and several silent shadows rose into the sky. After identifying their direction, they flew towards the village chiefs.
Although these silent shadows are not strong in combat effectiveness, they are transformed from humans after all and possess good intelligence.
There is absolutely no problem in leaving things like this to them.
"Go and help too." But after thinking about it, Colin turned to Dempsey and ordered him.
"Okay, sir." Dempsey nodded and accepted the order happily. He even breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned around and followed the Shadow of Silence away.
"Thank you, sir!" Robin finally reacted and said in surprise as he looked at the retreating shadow of silence.
Colin waved his hand, stepped forward, and followed Xue Lai, who had already reached the door of the igloo that was treating the wounded at some point.
Of course, to the outside world, he walked to the igloo alone.
Withdrawing his gaze, Robin looked at Colin's back and wanted to kneel down and kowtow to him.
But thinking of Colin's action of lifting him up just now, he paused, bent down deeply, bowed, and then threw off his legs and chased the shadow of silence away.
the other side.
Before entering the igloo, Colin stopped at the door. He suddenly frowned and came to the right side of the igloo.
There are a row of corpses neatly arranged here. A cold outside like this is the best place to store corpses.
"Dear Wizard." Goss put down the man's body he was holding and straightened up, greeting Colin with his companions next to him.
They are moving the body of the man that Robin sent here just now and arranging it neatly.
"He's not dead yet."
Colin looked at the livid man at their feet and said, then he waved his hand and cast the healing witchcraft.
He could feel that the man's soul was still in his body, had not dissipated, and showed no signs of disintegration.
"Not dead!?" Goss's eyes widened, and he subconsciously looked at each other with his companions, both seeing the disbelief in each other's eyes.
But the next second, the sound of coughing coming from under their feet made them believe it.
Goss quickly bent down and helped the man up, but what he didn't expect was that the man under his feet quickly recovered from a dead man to a lively one!
Even the injury on his leg was mostly healed, and he no longer needed his help. He stood up on his own and subconsciously shouted:
"Where's Lisa? And where's my son? Have you seen them?"
The man's voice became farther and farther away, and Colin walked into the igloo.
What he didn't see was that after the explanations of the two Gosses, the man who understood that he had just saved his life knelt down on the snow and kowtowed several times in his direction.
"In fact, as long as those pure-blood families are willing to station a few more wizards here and arrange some greenhouse witch formations, the lives of the villagers in Gubei Village can be greatly improved."
Xue Lai's spiritual message suddenly sounded in Colin's mind.
Colin looked in the direction where she was, but his eyes passed through the air and fell on the wounded on the ground in the igloo.
Some of them are unconscious, some are missing arms, some are missing soles of their feet...
Looking back, he continued to shake his head: "There is more than one Gubei Village here, and there is more than one Gubei Village in this world."
What's more, it's not easy to get those pure-blood families to pay for their own interests without asking for anything in return.
Even so, looking at the wounded on the ground, Colin condensed a few drops of the ancient tree spring, spread it into mist, and spread it over the wounded in front of him.
Colin noticed that Xue Lai's calm and substantive gaze fell on him.
It wasn't until Colin couldn't help but touch his cheek and wanted to ask himself if there was something wrong with him that Xue Lai slowly spoke:
"You are right, this is a difficult thing. We should not demand that a person consume what originally belongs to him to help another person for free."
Colin didn't answer. He just felt that if he was on top of the world at this moment, he wouldn't be as stingy as a pure-blood family.
"Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world."
——This is a precious treasure left to him in his previous life, and it is also something engraved in his bones from that nation he was born into.
Xue Lai continued the message:
“A long time ago, someone told me this truth——
The reason why ordinary people are inferior to wizards and cannot become wizards is because they have no talent, nor are they hardworking or smart enough."
"The reason why pure-blood families can enjoy those resources is because they are talented enough and of noble enough origin."
"I used to think it was right."
"But later I found out that this was a complete lie."
Xue Lai's figure slowly emerged, her face was calm, but her clear blue eyes shone with an unusual light.
"Most people's hard work, struggle... and even talent can't actually change anything in today's world."
Colin was silent.
He has a deep understanding of how serious the knowledge blockade in the wizarding world is.
The pure-blood family has a monopoly on everything. If it weren't for the golden paper, he would never have been able to reach this point.
Xue Lai continued talking.
She must have performed some kind of witchcraft. Although her figure was revealed, the people around her still turned a blind eye to her at this moment.
"There is actually no difference between the people in Gubei Village and those in Neustadt City. Their souls are equally noble."
"Perhaps we shouldn't demand that a person consume what originally belongs to him to help another person for free."
Xue Lai said again. She looked around at the wounded who were gradually recovering. Her face was calm and her eyes were like deep pools of water.
"But I think those wizards from pure-blood families, when they become high-level wizards and achieve great achievements, they should at least understand -
Those ordinary people who have not become high-level wizards and achieved achievements like them are actually not as smart and hard-working as them in many cases, but they just do not have the same conditions as them."
"When they realize this, they should be grateful, help the weak, and make the world a better place——
Because part of what they have is actually not what they deserve."
After Xue finished speaking, she turned to look at Colin, and finally asked slowly:
