C3607 Tribute

1Gu Xuan had never thought that one day he would have such a pleasant conversation with such a peasant family.    

    

In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.    

    

During this time, Gu Xuan gained a deeper understanding of Xue Tiezhu's family.    

    

This child called Xiao Meimei was already Xue Tiezhu's third child.    

    

The first two, one went to the nearest sect and became an Outer Door disciple, but he was killed by the Vicious Beast in a trial.    

    

The other one died because he was too poor and was bitten by a poisonous snake.    

    

Even Xiao Wei was pulled back from the gates of hell.    

    

When he was seven years old, he was taken away by a Vicious Beast. Fortunately, a powerful Martial Cultivator saved his life.    

    

However, from then on, he lost a leg and became a cripple.    

    

When they talked about it, they felt a bit lonely. However, the loneliness was gone soon, and the happy atmosphere returned.    

    

According to what Xue Tiezhu said, their family was already very lucky.    

    

In the entire village, among the twenty or so families, they were ranked in the top three.    

    

Over the years, the Burning Heaven Realm had been extremely chaotic. Every year, there would always be a few families whose family members went missing or died.    

    

And ever since Xiao Meimei was born, the four of them had lived happily ever after for nine years.    

    

Although they didn't eat well and didn't wear well, they rarely went hungry.    

    

In the cellar, there were still dozens of kilograms of rice and ten salted fish that hadn't been used yet.    

    

When they talked about this, the eyes of the other three were full of pride.    

    

If nothing unexpected happened, they would continue to live such a happy life.    

    

Besides, although Xiao Xiao-Xiao was disabled, he was pretty and smart. He knew over a thousand words.    

    

When he grew up, he could get a job in the book department in the city or work as an accountant in an inn. That wouldn't be a problem.    

    

He could get married and have kids.    

    

Xue Tiezhu and his wife were looking forward to it and it made Xiao Sun feel embarrassed.    

    

He leaned close to Gu Xuan's ear and told him that he only knew four or five hundred words. His parents bragged that he knew more than a thousand words.    

    

As for getting married and having children, he was still young, so he wasn't in a hurry to think about it. Besides, he would rather not marry someone as fierce as his mother.    

    

He didn't want to sleep in the woodshed every two or three days.    

    

His words made Tie Zhu's wife slap his butt a few times. Xue Tie Zhu wanted to persuade her, but his wife stared at him like a quail. He lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.    

    

That made him even more determined not to marry a fierce wife.    

    

Tie Zhu's father couldn't hear or see, but he seemed to be affected by the atmosphere. He laughed out loud and showed less than ten teeth in his mouth.    

    

Gu Xuan listened carefully and looked carefully. He seemed to be moved, but he couldn't see or feel it.    

    

However, he liked this atmosphere very much.    

    

This kind of atmosphere made people feel calm and at ease. It allowed people to temporarily forget the worries and confusion in their hearts.    

    

How good would it be if such an atmosphere could fill every corner of the Burning Heaven Realm?    

    

"Senior brother, a few days ago, in broad daylight, the sky suddenly turned dark, and there was a dense ghost aura. Mother said that a god used a gourd to collect the sky. Is this true?    

    

But the sky was so big, how could a gourd contain it?    

    

If the sky is collected, wouldn't the immortals in the sky fall?    

    

Oh right, they can fly and won't fall, but the houses they build and the immortal flowers and herbs they grow won't fall either?"    

    

Xiao Meimei looked at Gu Xuan suspiciously.    

    

Gu Xuan shook his head.    

    

"I don't know the answers to your questions either.    

    

It probably won't fall, right? Otherwise, if the sky is so high, wouldn't the house fall and smash someone to death? "    

    

Xiao Meimei stuck out her tongue.    

    

[That's right. How horrible would it be if the house fell down?]    

    

"Oh. It seems I won't be able to get the divine flowers and grasses then."    

    

Xiao-Xiao was a bit disappointed.    

    

Gu Xuan asked curiously, "What do you want to do with the Immortal Flower Immortal Grass? Eating it will make you immortal?"    

    

Xiao Meimei shook his head.    

    

"What's the point of living forever? People will die eventually.    

    

I just want to feed it to Grandpa so that he can hear and speak.    

    

I heard that there is a pharmacy in the city that sells this kind of pills, but unfortunately, I can't afford it.    

    

There aren't any immortal flowers or herbs in the sky, so grandfather will never be able to hear or speak."    

    

Gu Xuan smiled faintly.    

    

"I've heard of that kind of pill before. It's not expensive either.    

    

When you grow up and earn money, you should be able to afford them.    

    

So, you have to study hard. In the future, you will be able to earn a lot of money in the city."    

    

Xiao Meimei clenched his fist and firmly said," Senior Brother, you are right. I will!    

    

Not only do I have to cure grandfather, I also have to lead the entire village to live a good life!"    

    

Hearing this, Xue Tiezhu's eyes were slightly moist.    

    

He had such thoughts when he was young.    

    

It was just that he didn't have the ability to do it.    

    

But Xiao Niao was smart, so Xiao Niao could definitely do it!    

    

They chatted and laughed for a while, and then the oil lamp was burnt out. The room was completely dark.    

    

"Senior, we have to go on our way tomorrow. You should rest first."    

    

Xue Tiezhu gestured for Gu Xuan to enter the bedroom.    

    

"Is that your family's room?    

    

I'm sleeping. Where are you going?"    

    

Gu Xuan shook his head.    

    

To him, there was no difference whether he slept or not.    

    

Xue Tiezhu said enthusiastically, "It doesn't matter. I'm just a rough man. I can deal with my woodshed for a night.    

    

Although the old man's room was small, it could fit a small stool.    

    

Please don't..."    

    

Before Xue Tiezhu could finish, the sound of drums and gongs sounded outside the room.    

    

This was the gathering number of the Xue family village. Once it sounded, it meant that something big had happened and every family had to send their head to the ancestral hall.    

    

Xue Tiezhu apologized to Gu Xuan and rushed out of the room.    

    

Inside the room, Tiezhu's wife, Tiezhu's father, and Xiao Ni all looked worriedly toward the door.    

    

Gu Xuan sat calmly, but he had already released his Soul Power, covering an area of hundreds of miles.    

    

He was also curious about what exactly happened.    

    

If he didn't look, he wouldn't have known. When he did, Gu Xuan's face gradually darkened.    

    

Similar scenes didn't just happen in the Xue Family Village.    

    

The surrounding villages, including the ancestral hall, were also brightly lit.    

    

A quarter of an hour later, Xue Tiezhu returned.    

    

He was injured and had been kidnapped by the village chief. He was already half-dead.    

    

However, as soon as he got home, he opened his eyes and shouted:    

    

"Senior, please take me... Puff!"    

    

Before he finished, he was punched in the chest. He groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood. He couldn't speak anymore.    

    

In the room, Tie Zhu's wife and Xiao Meimei were scared to death.    

    

They didn't know what had happened.    

    

Bam!    

    

The door was kicked open.    

    

The village chief walked in with four or five strong men behind him carrying the half-dead Xue Tiezhu.    

    

Seeing this, Tiezhu's father charged forward and kneeled down at the village head's feet, kowtowing.    

    

Tie Zhu's mother also fell to the ground and hugged the village chief's leg, begging the village chief to forgive Tie Zhu's mistake.    

    

Even though she didn't know what mistake Tie Zhu had made.    

    

Xiao Meimei was so scared that her legs went soft. She almost fainted, but Gu Xuan held her up.    

    

He shouldn't have fainted. He should have faced it.    

    

"Lady Tie Zhu, I don't want to make things difficult for your Tie Zhu, but Tie Zhu shouldn't have hurt people in the ancestral hall.    

    

The Lord Black Flood Dragon patrolled and chose seven villages. Every village had to hand over a young boy and girl, or else the entire village would be destroyed.    

    

I had no choice but to draw lots to choose people.    

    

Tie Zhu and the Second Tiger Family had both drawn long lots. The only girl in the Second Tiger Family had already decided to give up her youngest daughter.    

    

Your family happened to have a kid who had a broken leg. It would only be a burden to your family. It would be good to give it away. The village would be safe, and your family would be less burdened.    

    

However, Tie Zhu was not happy about it and hurt him. We had no choice but to tie him up and bring him here.    

    

Lady Tie Zhu, you know the big picture. Hand over Xiao Niao and take Tie Zhu back so that he can recover."    

    

The village head laughed coldly and waved his hand. A big man charged forward and tried to take Xiao Niao away.    

    

Tie Zhu's wife was shaking because of fear, but she was still fast. She rushed over and grabbed the big man's leg.    

    

The big man was extremely angry. He punched towards Tie Zhu's wife's head.    

    

"Senior, save my mother!"    

    

Xiao Meimei grabbed the corner of Gu Xuan's clothes and begged.    

    

He didn't need to say anything. Gu Xuan was already prepared to attack.    

    

He grabbed Xiao Meimei with one hand and moved in a flash. He appeared in front of the burly man and blocked his fist.    

    

"Village Chief, does cheating in the lottery count?"    

    

Gu Xuan stared at the Village Chief. His eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.    

    

The expressions of the Village Chief and the other burly men changed drastically.    

    

It was only then that they noticed that there was a man in white in the room!
