No one knew what happened at night, everything seemed to be the same as usual, no difference.
The cockcrow sounded.
The villagers get up.
Just deal with a couple of people and start working.
On weekdays, everyone is frightened, hungry and has no strength, and large areas of fertile farmland are abandoned.
When 90% of the food has been taken away, who is still willing to work hard?
But it's different now.
No more reassignments.
Even though their faces were sallow and skinny due to hunger, the villagers' faces were filled with joyful smiles.
The remaining grain was no longer hidden, but was taken out and eaten.
Life will get better and better.
"Shi Zhong! You are very strong, come and help me."
"Dad Shi Zhong, please let your boy use it. The millstone can't be pushed anymore. My mother wants to drink some soy milk."
"Xiao Chong, have you saved up any money since you've been out for so long? My uncle wants to go to town to buy some seeds, and I'll pay you back double when spring comes next year."
The village is still quite rustic.
There's no intrigue.
If you want anything, just say it, and those who can help will usually help.
It was really raided too hard some time ago, and everyone needs help.
It's okay to put in the effort, but the money is gone.
The secular world has no use for spiritual stones and only recognizes gold, silver and copper coins.
Although a piece of spiritual stone is worth a lot of gold and silver, the An Dynasty really has no place to exchange it now, and everyone is extremely poor.
Shi Zhong asked Lin Xi: "Do you have any money?"
"That's really not true." Lin Xi shook his head.
He went out to practice in the Qingyun Sect. Gold and silver in the world were of no use at all, so naturally he didn't bring them with him.
Just when the two were thinking about where to get money, a group of well-trained elite soldiers suddenly came to the village, wearing armor and holding sharp blades, with high aura, and the leader was an old eunuch.
This old eunuch is still very famous.
Because he was highly valued by the emperor.
The villagers in Longshan Village were all frightened. Why did a lot of officials suddenly arrive, and one seemed to be a great official.
The villagers who had never seen much of the world were naturally so frightened that they did not dare to come out.
Only the village chief had the courage to step forward, kneel down respectfully and ask: "Dear Sir, what do you want to do here?"
"I don't dare to accept it, I don't dare to accept it." The old eunuch was so frightened that he jumped off his horse and hurriedly helped the village chief. His posture was even more humble than that of the village elder: "Old man, you have broken me. I can't bear your gift.
"
The village chief was flattered.
What's happening here.
Why does this high official look so afraid of himself?
"My lord, what's the matter with you?" the village chief asked in a low voice.
The old eunuch smiled with a smile on his face: "May I ask where the two immortals are?"
"Immortal?" The village chief was confused: "What immortal?"
Other villagers were also a little confused.
Where did this fairy come from?
The old eunuch hurriedly said: "They are two young men. One is handsome and unrestrained, with extraordinary temperament, like a star descending from the earth, and the other is tall and burly, with great strength, like the reincarnation of the God of War."
Now the villagers were even more confused.
What on earth is this high official talking about?
Someone asked in a low voice: "Are you talking about that boy Shi Zhong and his friend?"
"How is it possible? How could that boy Shi Zhong be some kind of immortal?"
"I grew up watching Shi Zhong."
"That boy was helping me grind soy milk just now. How could he be an immortal?"
"There must be a mistake. I guess this official is looking in the wrong place."
The villagers discussed quietly.
No one believed that Shi Zhong, who had only been away from home for a few months, would be the immortal described by the high-ranking official in front of him.
The old eunuch murmured in his heart when he saw this.
Did I find the wrong one?
But His Majesty is talking about Longshan Village. Is it possible that there are other Longshan Villages?
At this moment, Lin Xi and Shi Zhong walked out of the house.
Lin Xi saw the army entering the village and frowned: "What happened?"
When the old eunuch saw Lin Xi and Shi Zhong, he was very happy.
Sure enough, I found the right place.
He ran all the way, the expression on his face became extremely flattering, and he hunched over: "I have seen two immortals, Immortal Chief Wan'an, I am following your majesty's order... No, no, it was your majesty who asked me to come.
Give me something."
He didn't even dare to say the words "I came here on orders" for fear of appearing too condescending.
All the villagers were dumbfounded and froze on the spot, unable to speak for a long time.
Immortal?
Shi Zhong is a legendary immortal.
This is too unbelievable.
The villagers who just asked Shi Zhong to help with work were dumbfounded. Really? An immortal helped him with farm work just now?
Even Shi Zhong's parents were dumbfounded.
My son has become an immortal?
After several similar experiences, Shi Zhong got used to it and didn't feel anything was wrong.
He asked: "What?"
"Some grains, seeds and livestock, chickens, ducks, cattle and donkeys are not valuable. I hope the immortal will not refuse." The old eunuch said cautiously.
Emperor Zhu Wei was very smart.
He knew that no matter what he gave as a gift, it would be worthless in the eyes of immortals.
So it was very smart to give away some things that the villagers valued most.
These things are not valuable.
But in the eyes of the villagers, it is what they need most.
Shi Zhong thought for a while and realized that the villagers really needed these things, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, then I will accept them."
The old eunuch breathed a sigh of relief.
The mission His Majesty gave me has finally been completed.
"Sorry to disturb Immortal Chang Qingxiu, let's put down our things and leave immediately," the old eunuch said.
Sure enough, after the army put down their food and livestock, they did nothing and left without looking back.
In this action, I don’t seek merit, but I seek no faults.
This old eunuch is also a good person.
Since the Immortal is willing to accept something, it is already a meritorious service. You must not try to get close to someone on your own initiative, which may offend the Immortal.
When the troops of the An Dynasty left, Shi Zhong greeted everyone: "Everyone come and share the things. There are grains, livestock and seeds. Every household has a share."
The villagers bravely approached.
Shi Zhong's mother asked: "Son, are you really some kind of immortal?"
"He's not an immortal, he just knows some magic."
"What kind of magic is it? Can you let us see it?" Some people asked curiously.
Shi Zhong thought for a while, took out the Mountain-Suppressing Seal, and then squeezed the Magic Jue to turn the Mountain-Suppressing Seal into a streak of escaping light. He jumped up and flew and hovered in the air.
The villagers were shocked.
"Immortal, Immortal!" someone exclaimed.
Oh my god.
Really a fairy.
An immortal actually appeared in our village.
Shi Zhong fell down and said sheepishly: "I'm not at the level of an immortal. I only know some weak spells."
But how could the villagers know this?
How can he not be an immortal if he can fly in the sky like this?
Everyone looked at Shi Zhong in awe.
I heard that immortals are all aloof and should never be offended, otherwise they will encounter huge disasters.
Shi Zhong felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
The villagers looked at him with eyes that, in addition to joy and awe, seemed to be a little alienated.
