Hearing this number, Ling Feng's heart suddenly moved, and with a flash of his mind, he was overjoyed.

Because he found that these crops contained very obvious auras. It was obvious that it was precisely because of these auras that these crops grew so well.

And this spiritual energy is very similar to the Holy Spirit energy that Ling Feng received from the golden member of the Habsburg family.

This discovery further confirms the speculation that this place is related to dragon veins.

In this case, Ling Feng couldn't wait any longer. Since there were local residents, maybe they would know something.

"Xiao Xi, would you like to take your brother to your village as a guest?"

"Okay! Okay!" Xiao Xi almost jumped up with joy, "There have been... no guests in our village for... many years... Big brother, please... follow me..."

As he said that, he jumped up and down and led the way.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, and sometimes you even need to use your hands and feet, but Xiao Xi doesn't care, as if she is used to walking.

After walking for several miles, we finally arrived at the village that Xiao Xi mentioned.

To be precise, this is hardly a village. There are only a dozen or so households at most, dotted in the mountains. Because the mountains are uneven, the distance between every two households is quite far.

"Look, big brother, we're here, that... is our... village..."

Xiao Xi pointed at the village, said something to Ling Feng excitedly, and then ran to several houses happily, "Grandpa, grandpa... there are guests... I met the real Chinese... or someone

!We have guests from..."

Xiao Xi was not big, but her voice was not quiet. When she shouted, almost everyone in the village could hear her. Many people came out of the house to see what was going on.

From the house that Xiao Xi ran towards, an old man who was nearly 70 years old also walked out of the house, looking at Xiao Xi with a kind face.

Ling Feng glanced at these people and could see that, like Xiao Xi's family, their lives were not very good either.

Ling Feng couldn't help but frown secretly. Italy is a developed country, and San Remo, dozens of kilometers away from them, is a very wealthy place. Why are they still so poor? And they still live here, and they can only cultivate mountains and plant some crops.

Live off crops?

Ling Feng's appearance immediately caused a sensation in this small village.

Almost everyone in the village gathered around.

In this village, almost all Chinese people were excited to see that Ling Feng was indeed Chinese as Xiao Xi said. They all communicated with Ling Feng in Chinese and surrounded Ling Feng with questions.

Ling Feng has been in Europe for a long time, and he spends most of his time speaking English. Suddenly meeting so many people speaking Chinese made him feel very friendly.

However, Ling Feng found that in this village, apart from the elderly, there seemed to be children, and there were almost no young people. He couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"The young people in the village, in order to make a living, have all gone to the city to find jobs. They rarely come back a few times a year. The only ones left in the village are some old people, women and children." Xiao Xi's grandfather explained.

"Don't the children go to school?" Ling Feng asked.

Along the way, he had been paying attention to everything here. He knew that the nearest school to this village was dozens of kilometers away, and there were no buses here. He really couldn't imagine how the children would be in this situation.

How to go to school.

The old man shook his head and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to go, it's that I can't."

"Why?"

"Because we are not legal residents, no school is willing to accept our children." Another old man said, with a sense of self-destruction in his words.

"Not a legal resident? What's going on?"

Xiaoxi's grandfather sighed: "In fact, we came here to escape the war, so we can be considered refugees. We are now the third generation.

However, due to the language barrier, lack of any skills, and the rejection by the local people, we have not been able to obtain legal status until now.

If we are not legal residents, we cannot enjoy free education like locals. Not only that, we don’t even have the right to reside. No matter where we go, we will be evicted.

If there hadn't been mysterious things happening in this mountain range and no one would want to come here, we would probably have been expelled even if we lived here."

Ling Feng finally understood why people here lived in such poverty.

"Then what do you do for a living?"

Xiao Xi's grandfather said: "We reclaim wasteland in the mountains and plant crops, which can solve the problem of food. We sell the excess food and make a little money. Young people in the village can also make money by going out to work.

Some money."

Another old man said: "Even if the young people in the village go out to work, they can only do the lowest jobs because they have no legal status. Once they are discovered, they will be fined and they will not be able to take them back after a year."

A few bucks."

Ling Feng frowned, "Then why don't you go back to China?"

Xiaoxi's grandfather smiled bitterly and said: "I can't go back! Because without legal status, we can't take various means of transportation. Moreover, we don't have money. Besides, we have lived here for decades and are familiar with the people here.

I really can’t let go of every plant and tree.”

Ling Feng felt sad that in Europe, a so-called developed society, such a thing could still happen, and these people were actually his compatriots.

It would be okay if I couldn't see them. Now that I saw them, I would change their situation no matter what.

"Old man, I need to stay in the village for a while because of some things. Do you think it can be convenient? Of course, I will pay."

Xiaoxi's grandfather smiled and said: "Brother, are you a scientific researcher here for inspection?"

Ling Feng smiled and said nothing.

Xiao Xi's grandfather said: "Over the years, I have met many people who have the same purpose as you. But I have never seen a Chinese. Since you are here, it is our destiny. Stay here, no matter what

It doesn’t matter how long it takes, as long as you don’t mind the difficult conditions here. Besides, you don’t have to pay. Who doesn’t need help when you are away from home? We are all Chinese, so talking about money is too foreign.”

Ling Feng was deeply touched that a small village living in such poverty could still maintain such simple folk customs.

"Great!" When Xiao Xi heard that Ling Feng was moving in, she almost jumped up with joy, "Big brother is going to live with us..."

Ling Feng stayed at Xiao Xi's house, and he got along very well with this little girl. Xiao Xi would talk to him when she had nothing to do. After a few days, Xiao Xi's Chinese level actually improved greatly, and she became much fluent than before.

.

There are only two people left in Xiao Xi's family, Xiao Xi and his grandfather. The grandfather and grandson go out early every morning. The old man has to work in the fields, and Xiao Xi is there to help with whatever he can.

Although the grandparents and grandchildren did not live a wealthy life, they would make Ling Feng's meal before going out every day, which moved Ling Feng very much.

He secretly vowed to change the living conditions of these simple and kind-hearted people!

Of course, these things need to be done, but not now. The top priority now is to find the "Xunlong Heavenly Book" left by Master Xiao Qiushui as soon as possible.

For several days, he had been carefully observing this mountain range. Ling Feng had also been to the place that Nangong Xiaoxian had mentioned, but he could not see anything strange at all.

The only difference that can be seen is that the local spiritual energy seems to be much more abundant than elsewhere.

In desperation, Ling Feng had no choice but to start with spiritual energy.

Soon, he discovered something.

First of all, the location of Saint Remo Academy is a geomantic treasure in terms of Feng Shui.

The topography of the Shiragongo Mountains is like a dragon playing with a pearl. If the Shiragongo Mountains are really compared to a dragon, the place where St. Remo Academy is located is exactly where the pearl is.

Such a terrain allows the spiritual energy of the entire Shiragongo Mountains to naturally and slowly flow to San Remo Academy, making it the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in the region.

As expected, Saint Remo Academy opened as scheduled. Ling Feng secretly observed that there were about two hundred students enrolled.

Among this group of people, the weakest among them can reach the baron level. There are also many students who can reach the saint level. There are even a few students who can reach the earl level. A very rare few are even comparable to the heavenly warriors.

From this point of view, as the rumors say, those who can enter this school are the best of the best.

Ling Feng noticed that after entering Saint Remo Academy, these students did nothing and spent almost all day in seclusion.

This situation makes St. Remo Academy even more mysterious in the eyes of outsiders.

If Ling Feng hadn't noticed the changes in the local spiritual energy, he might have felt strange about their behavior, but now, Ling Feng knew that the reason why they did this was to absorb the spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy here can not only greatly improve a person's cultivation, but it also contains fragments of laws, allowing people to understand the laws within them.

For those who wander outside the law, the benefits are self-evident.

From this, Ling Feng came to a conclusion: the so-called Saint Remo Academy, to put it bluntly, is just a platform for students to absorb spiritual energy.

One thing that made Ling Feng very depressed was that he almost searched all over the Shiragongo Mountains, but he couldn't find the source of the spiritual energy.

It is impossible that such abundant spiritual energy does not have a source. Because we know that this spiritual energy must be related to the dragon vein, the source of the spiritual energy is very likely to have some internal connection with what Ling Feng is looking for. So this source, Ling Feng is

You have to find it no matter what.

Since I've searched everywhere in the Shiragongo Mountains and still can't find it, it's most likely that it's inside the San Remo Academy.

So Ling Feng decided to change his appearance and go to St. Remo Academy!

Just when Ling Feng decided to set off, he vaguely heard crying coming from the village. The voice sounded like Xiao Xi's.

Xiao Xi is innocent and has never known what it feels like to be worried. Ever since Ling Feng saw her, he has never seen her worried. Why is she crying? Could something have happened?

Ling Feng quickly returned to the village, only to see that almost everyone in the village gathered in front of Xiao Xi's house, and everyone looked sad.

"What happened?" Ling Feng asked.

"Xiao Xi was beaten and seriously injured." An old man said with an angry look on his face.

Xiao Xi was beaten? Hearing this, Ling Feng immediately walked into the room.

In the room, Xiao Xi's grandfather was holding Xiao Xi in his arms and crying silently.
