All the officers and soldiers flew out, falling to the ground one by one and wailing.
Unless you specialize in physical training, there will not be much increase in physical strength at the Qi refining level.
But the stone weight is different.
He was born tall and tall, with extraordinary powers.
Even if you are not a cultivator, one man can be worth a hundred. If you put him on the battlefield, he will definitely be a powerful general, and a few small officers and soldiers will not matter.
They didn't die just because Shi Zhong didn't want to kill anyone.
"What are you doing? How can you beat the official?" The village chief was anxious and pushed Shi Zhong: "You are in big trouble. Go quickly, leave the village and don't come back."
If the people do not fight against the officials, this idea has long been rooted in the hearts of the people at the bottom.
But how could he push Shi Zhong.
Other villagers were also anxious.
"Shi Zhong, what are you doing back here? Get out of here quickly."
"If the official is beaten, more officers and soldiers will definitely be attracted later. Now it's over."
"We'd better move away."
"Where else can we move? Can we afford the fees to leave the city?"
Only the woman who was crying came up and hugged Shi Zhong: "Silly boy, you are too impulsive. Go away quickly, just like before, leave here."
"Mom, you don't have to be afraid, we don't have to be afraid of these officers and soldiers anymore." Shi Zhong said calmly.
He seemed to grow up all of a sudden.
After becoming a monk, he remained unchanged and cautious.
Even if his strength increases significantly, he cannot let go of the past all at once.
But now he finally realizes that he has the ability to change his destiny.
Lin Xi was thoughtful.
Perhaps the meaning of breaking the bond is not just to face separation more calmly in the future.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know that the most important thing for us is that you can escape. At least we know that our descendants will not have to endure this anymore." A dark-skinned middle-aged man stood up and said.
He is short, has dark skin, wears a hat, and has calluses on his hands from farm work.
Shi Zhong lowered his head and shouted: "Dad."
His parents are very ordinary people.
Faced with such suffering, who wouldn't want to escape?
But there was no way to escape, and only Shi Zhong, who was born extraordinary, could cross the high wall of the city.
Facing the panic of the villagers, Lin Xi said: "No, Shi Zhong is not wrong. You don't have to be afraid of the officers and soldiers anymore."
The villagers all looked at Lin Xi.
"Who are you? Why do you dare to say that?" the village chief questioned.
Lin Xi replied: "I am Shi Zhong's friend."
With that said, Lin Xi kicked out the commander who had been captured from outside the city gate.
Tang Xian stumbled and almost fell down. His armor was a bit messy and he was in a state of embarrassment.
"Ahem, this general is General Tang Xian, the seventh-grade general of the An Dynasty. He is stationed in the capital to defend against foreign enemies." General Tang Xian stabilized his figure and looked mighty.
The villagers were panicked after seeing it.
A seventh-grade general.
This was a high-ranking official they had never come into contact with before, and the armor on Tang Xianchen's body did indeed look like that.
They were so frightened that they hurriedly knelt down.
Seeing this, Shi Chong became anxious and slapped Tang Xian on the forehead: "Who told you to show off!"
Tang Xianjiang said hastily with a bitter face: "Don't kneel down, don't kneel down. You are the people blessed by two immortals. How can I be qualified to accept your kneeling?"
The villagers were all confused, what kind of immortal?
"General, what are you talking about?" the village chief asked cautiously, trembling.
"Don't you know?" Tang Xianjiang looked at Lin Xi and Shi Zhong respectfully and said humbly: "These two are the legendary immortals who flew into the sky and escaped from the earth."
Lin Xi also gave Tang Xianjiang a slap on the head: "I'm not that powerful yet."
General Tang Xian almost cried.
What exactly do you want?
If you want me to say whatever you want, please just say it. Don't make things difficult for me.
The villagers didn't believe it.
Where did the immortal come from?
Shi Zhong is a kid we have grown up watching.
Some strength is real, Immortal? Are you kidding me?
"General, please stop joking." A villager said with some fear.
I heard that those high officials like to play tricks on the common people to satisfy their evil taste.
Who knows if the high official in front of me is like this too.
Tang Xianjiang is about to cry but has no tears. How dare I make a joke?
Lin Xi estimated that if the Xian family's methods were revealed, these people would not be able to accept it for a while, so he said: "This general is actually here to tell everyone that because he paid too much food before, it is enough. So in the next fifty years
, all taxes are exempted, and the food grown by everyone can be owned by themselves."
When the villagers heard this, their eyes suddenly widened.
This is really incredible.
You must know that heavy taxation has been implemented for ten years.
"Then why those officers..." The village chief looked hesitantly at the officers and soldiers who were thrown away by the heavy stone hammer.
"This is the purpose of my coming here." General Tang Xian was smart: "These guys ignored the tax exemption order and dared to collect grain indiscriminately. I am here to catch them and bring them back for punishment."
After that, General Tang Xian directly picked up the officers and soldiers who had been knocked to the ground.
"General?" Those officers and soldiers recognized General Tang Xian and shouted in pain.
"What do you mean, you are a disgrace, get out of Longshan Village and don't take another step."
General Tang Xian directly threw these officers and soldiers out of the village.
Seeing this scene, the villagers were completely convinced.
"Great, great."
"These hard days have finally come to an end."
"I can finally have a full meal, woo hoo woo."
"Damn it, Tie Gen, why didn't you survive until today?"
All the villagers held their heads and cried, weeping with joy.
After crying for a while, the villagers welcomed Lin Xi and the others into the village.
Every household contributed some food and managed to make a dinner to welcome the guests.
Lin Xi felt very uncomfortable looking at the simple dinner in front of her.
Life is indeed hard.
Even if the tax is waived, food cannot be produced immediately.
Lin Xi did not store any food in the Qiankun Bag, so he really did not expect such a thing.
After a meal, Shi Chong went home to catch up with his parents.
After reminiscing about old times until midnight, Lin Xi found Shi Zhong.
Lin Xi asked General Tang Xian: "Such heavy gifts are like this all over the country."
"Indeed." Tang Xianjiang nodded cautiously.
"Is it the emperor's order?"
"Yes, your Majesty has been possessed by an evil spirit since ten years ago. He has been squeezing the people. Some families wanted to escape, and their homes were confiscated." Tang Xianjiang smiled bitterly: "I can't help myself either."
Although the An Dynasty itself was not large in scale, it was still relatively peaceful and peaceful for the country and the people. The emperor was also diligent and caring for the people, and was very popular among the people.
Since ten years ago, everything has changed.
The emperor became extremely cruel. He used various regulations to increase taxes, plunder money, and carry out large-scale construction projects. He built a star-catching tower hundreds of meters high to show off his achievements.
