Cang Xu nodded slightly, and was silent for a while, as if he was considering the words.

Then, he said in a desolate tone: "My name is Cangxu. I was born in a farmer's home and was originally the son of a farmer."

"I started working when I was five or six years old. My main job was to clean horse manure. We have a short horse in our house, and we mainly used it to pull the plow."

"Once, when I was cleaning the horse manure, the horse suddenly got angry and kicked me with the back hoof. I fell into the feces and almost suffocated. Although I was saved by chance, death from such close contact made fear fill my young heart and I couldn't let go of it for a long time."

"I became very timid, afraid of any kind of horse, or even things of similar shapes. I didn't even dare to get close to the stable. My parents arranged other work for me, and I was also timid and would hide if there was any slightest movement."

"I am naturally ridiculed by my playmates, alienated by my parents, and disliked by my parents. Everyone in the village is not optimistic about my future."

"It took me a long time to realize that my fear may not be fearing the horse, but the fear of the life of the farmer itself."

"Shame makes me lonely, loneliness makes me think. The gift of fate is bitter first and then sweet, making me afraid that I will live my life as a farmer."

"Lucky has come. When I was eight years old, I saw the dawn of my destiny. A pastor from the Catholic Church came to our village and wanted to build a church. There was no church in the village, and everyone in the village hoped that there would be a pastor to treat him when he was sick. Therefore, the villagers spontaneously organized a pastor to build a church of Catholic Church. Among all the volunteers, I was the hardest one. I tried my best to please the pastor, and tried my best to show my faith in Catholic God, and wanted to win the pastor's favor."

"The pastor really hopes that children of my age will gather more than a dozen children, including me, and teach us knowledge of arithmetic, writing, etc. during his day."

"Spring goes and autumn comes, and when the church is successfully built, a news was announced among the pastors."

"He wants to select several volunteers and become co-workers. He even needs to recruit two of his children and cultivate a trainee pastor."

"No one is a fool, and the villagers are flocking to it. The status of clergy is far higher than that of farmers. Families with children of appropriate age are almost crazy."

"I really want to be a trainee pastor, and I know this may be the only chance in my life to change my destiny, for which I can even care about my life!"

“The competition is very fierce.”

"I have saved the final selection through my hard work and previous hard work. There are four people in total, but only two trainee pastors are recruited. The other three are rich families in the village, and one of them is the village chief. In order to increase hope, they used their own power and wealth to oppress my family, force my parents, and let me give in."

"My home was so crowded that it was almost impossible to survive, and it became a torment every day. My parents persuaded me, of course I refused, and almost broke with them."

"I went to participate in the final assessment with the attitude of not being able to succeed. However, I failed."

"The shadow of my childhood still envelops my heart, and I fear horses. For the horse god, I only have fear and no respect."

"I can't believe in Him, even if I try my best."

"The priest of God Horse is wise and wise, and is also ruthless. Even though I knelt on the ground and begged him, he still eliminated me."

"I was so lost that I felt that my whole life was bleak and had nothing to do with it. That evening, I walked in the street in a daze, surrounded by the villagers' mockery of me. I don't know how I got home, so I couldn't eat anything at all."

"For some time afterwards, my father beat and scolded me, and my mother scolded me for being too improper. Although my family is a free citizen, my father suffered a serious illness, which led to poor family conditions. He had to make a living and could only cultivate other people's farmland and pay rent. This is actually no different from serfs. However, because of my affairs, no villagers rented us the extra land."

"In order to punish me, my parents gave me a heavy amount of labor. Every day, I sleep on the haystack with my almost disintegrating body."

"Punishment and failure did not make me admit defeat, and ridicule and exclusion did not make me despair. I became increasingly unwilling, and this unwillingness gradually turned into anger. Although I was depressed for many days, I quickly became excited. The biggest way I worked hard was to review what I learned from the pastor."

"I only have free time at night. During the day, I have to get up very early. If I can't finish the work my parents assigned me, I won't even have a piece of black bread."

"Although I am very tired every day, I never give up on learning at night. I memorize what the pastor taught me and deeply imprint it in my heart. Until now, I remember every piece of knowledge very clearly. I cherish them and love them, just like the rare hope of my life. They are my resistance to my own destiny!"

"One night, Pastor Ma Shen quietly came to the haystack and woke me up who was sleeping."

"I was surprised and happy, thinking that there was a turning point? I immediately knelt on the ground and swore to the pastor that I would do my best to believe in the Lord of Horses and eliminate all the fears deep in my heart."

"But the Pastor of Horse God shook his head, and he said: Horse God does not force faith. The reason I found me was because he discovered my life state and had been observing it secretly for a while. I worked hard and had a desire for knowledge, which moved him."

"Pastor Ma God gave me a whole new choice. If I acted as his slave, he would teach me the knowledge I wanted. As for what the future is, it depends on my own efforts."

"I convinced my parents to sell myself."

"Of course, it was mainly because Pastor Ma Shen spent a lot of money to buy me."

"The pastor did not deceive me, and was even much better than I thought. He even kept this deal secret and made me a servant in the church. I served the pastor's daily life with all my heart, and he taught me valuable knowledge. I learned more about arithmetic, literature, astronomy, and geography."

"Among all the gains, I think the most precious thing is Pastor Ma Shen's curiosity about knowledge and his hard-working attitude. This attitude has affected my life."

Speaking of this, Cang Xu paused for a moment. The long-term narrative made him feel a little breathless.

Cang Xu continued: "The competition for faith is sometimes more intense than war. The horse god originated from the wilderness continent and is the god of the beast tribe's belief. On the Holy Continent, His influence was too small. Therefore, when the Life Sect spread, the faith of the horse god was immediately shaken and quickly collapsed without any competitive power."

"The Lord of Horse was forced to leave. Before leaving, he removed my slavery and declared me to be free. And, he suggested that I continue to study."

"I went to Yinqiao College and participated in the assessment. Pastor Ma Shen's professor gave me a solid academic foundation, so I successfully passed the assessment and became an extremely poor student in the college. Three years later, I successfully graduated from the college and became a scholar."

"I taught at Yinqiao College for three years, and then relying on the college's connections, I became the manager of a little noble."

"Later, I transferred several nobles to hold small positions in territorial management."

"I am not a nobleman, nor is I a servant trained by a nobleman since childhood. More importantly, I do not have the qualifications to practice. These reasons have caused me to be repeatedly despised and excluded, and my position has never been high."

"After five years like this, there was a chance to appear before me."

"A riot occurred in a village, and the tax collector was killed. The general manager responsible for tax collectors deceived his superiors and subordinates, fearing that he would be discovered by the lord, so he offered a large reward for those who could successfully collect taxes."

"I knew the villagers of that village, so I thought it was an opportunity and volunteered to go."

"I was hung up and beaten, locked in a cell, and tortured."

"Just as they were about to kill me, I asked me what my last words."

"I laughed out loud, just shook my head and didn't say anything."

“This confuses the villagers.”

"I told them that I was their friend and never had any hostility. I came to save them. If they obeyed and paid taxes, the general manager would pretend that nothing had happened. If they didn't want to, then there would be knights coming to wipe them out."

"The villagers were afraid and knew that the entire village would definitely not resist the knights. But paying taxes will collect all their stored food and they will starve to death."

"I pretended to tell them that the general manager had secretly lowered the taxes. After paying them, the villagers would still have food to store and survive. However, as a condition, the villagers needed to keep it strictly confidential, otherwise other villages and towns would follow suit."

"After the villagers discussed it, they agreed. I secretly made up for the missing tax and then reported it."

"In this way, I got the favor of the general manager and was finally promoted."

"I am in a position, and at first no one is optimistic about me. They think I am powerless and just a simple scholar. I can kill my life with just one assassination. But in fact, I have worked in this position for more than thirty years."

"The position I am in gives me the opportunity to perform. My knowledge allows me to show my value, and the lords gradually impressed me."

"In this process, I have never given up on my pursuit of knowledge. It is precisely because I keep acquiring new knowledge that my value is getting greater and greater."

"Although Pastor Ma Shen left me very early, his spirit of pursuing knowledge has become one with my blood."

"I thought I would serve the lord until death, but fate has arranged a new path for me."

"Time passes, and I am getting older, which has given many people the opportunity. At the same time, I pursue the love of knowledge more than rights, try to avoid factional struggles within the lord, and also make those in power dissatisfied."

"They instigated a young man."

"His name is Lantu, and he daydreaming to become a knight all day long. He is my closest deputy. The lord's third lady seduced her with love, and finally made this young man decide to betray her."

"He reported me, claiming that I was a dangerous criminal who had been hiding for many years, and had always had ulterior motives about the territory and the lord's family, and had hidden conspiracies."

"In order to save my life, I could only escape. The young man successfully accepted my position and was recruited by the third wife."

"The act of absconding fear of sin undoubtedly confirmed the accusations of the young man. At the beginning of the escape, I was very sad, angry, and indulged in all kinds of negative emotions and could not extricate myself."

"A long time later, I finally figured it out."

"It's fate that gave me a new path."

"I asked myself, I am so old and have little time to spend the rest of my life? In the end, I decided to pursue what I really want, which is knowledge. Among all the knowledge, I am most interested in biology. I want to achieve academic success, I want to complete a book and do my best to explain the mystery of life."

"Soon, a wanted order about me was spread. I was not surprised. I served the Lord's family, held an important position, and knew many secrets. The Lord's family would not let me go easily."

"I can't continue on the Holy Ming Continent, so I can only take a boat to the Beast Continent. Just so happens that the Wilderness Continent has many unique ecology, which will be of great help to my completion of academic works."

"Mr. Neck Jin, I am an old guy with a wanted order. If you want to recruit me, you will undoubtedly be an enemy of the Miansha family. This is why I refused you recruit me before."

"And the reason why I mastered the taming method of the explosive horse is that most of the technology comes from the horse god pastor. The remaining part of the technology is completed by the experiment I spent more than 30 years."

"This is my story."

"It's wonderful." Zhen Jin exclaimed.

Cang Xu smiled slightly: "Thank you for your praise. It is my lifelong honor to be able to receive your listening. Half of my academic works have been completed, and they are hidden in my mind, but at the same time I also secretly hide a piece in the cotton sand territory."

"This half of the book is hidden in the cell of a village ruin. It is the place where I was tortured. It is in the bricks under the iron shackles."

"My last wish is - if I die here, then please give half of the work I have completed to Lantu. Of course, you can read and collect it as much as possible. If it can be used for you, it is also a great honor."

Zijin frowned and couldn't help but feel confused.

"Lantu?" Ziti woke up at some point, "If I heard it correctly, Lantu was the young man who framed you?"

"Yes, Miss Ziti, you heard it right."

Cangfeng's face showed a complex expression, desolate, sad, and a hint of pain and hope.

He continued, “Because this young man is my son.”
