Old Jason's eyes widened and he felt a little dizzy in his mind.
Just for a group of people to stay for one night, give them fifteen silver soul coins? Even if a family worked hard for a month, they would not be able to earn so much money. This is not the result of the lord's exploitation.
"Poseidon is above. Distinguished guests, please come in, please come in."
Old Jason bent down, with a flattering smile on his face, and said hurriedly.
"Then I'll ask the village chief to make arrangements."
Teacher Lin smiled slightly and said.
Afterwards, the village chief arranged a house for the group of people to live in. The houses here are all simple wooden houses, with waterwheels parked outside, and livestock passing by from time to time. For these students who grew up in a big city,
, which can be considered a novel experience.
After all, the people in this village are still simple. Although they were a little hostile to these foreigners at first, with the promise of fifteen Gintama coins, the village prepared the most sumptuous food to receive these guests.
White bread, mushroom soup, and stewed wild vegetables are all very distinctive farm food. Although the only meat dish is pickled dried fish, it is a unique experience for everyone.
"Brother, where are you from?"
After dinner, Jiang Yun took a walk in the village to experience the unique and exotic scenery. Two children tugged on his trousers and asked curiously with their big gray-blue eyes open.
These two children looked to be six or seven years old, skinny and thin, wearing simple patched cloth clothes. However, their faces still had an innocent color, without the numbness of those adults.
"We are from the Sun and Moon Empire in the west. We are students from the Royal Soul Engineer Academy, and we are here to participate in your Star Luo Empire's continent-wide youth soul fighting competition. We just came by train from Mingdu."
Jiang Yun knelt down, touched the two children's little heads, smiled gently, and said.
"Sun and Moon Empire? My lord, the Sun and Moon Empire are all bad people who don't believe in Poseidon. What is a train? Can it breathe fire?"
A little girl blinked her big eyes and asked.
"Little sister, the world is very big, so there are many, many people. Some people like Poseidon, and naturally some don't. Just like some children like to eat tomatoes, and some don't. People who don't like Poseidon also don't like it.
He’s not necessarily a bad person.”
Jiang Yun smiled and said.
"Ah, I don't like tomatoes. They're so sour. I don't want to eat them when I'm hungry."
The little girl stuck out her tongue and said.
"What about the train? Is it a carriage that breathes fire? Does it run on the ground or fly in the sky?"
The little boy pulled Jiang Yun's sleeve and asked very excitedly.
"Haha, the train is a soul-guided locomotive, but it is not driven by soul power, but burns coal to operate. As long as coal is burned, steam can be generated, and the pressure of the steam is used to drive the locomotive and run on the rails.
.”
Jiang Yun stretched out his hand and gestured, trying to use plain language to make the child understand. However, the child was confused after all, but the excitement on his face did not diminish at all.
"This train is really amazing. It can run by burning coal. Mr. Buster, who lives in the High Castle, doesn't seem to have such a magical car!"
The little boy said with excitement.
"Brother, can we see a car like this in the future?"
The little girl looked at Jiang Yun and asked with some longing.
"Yes, there will be such a day. There will be trains, and there will be bread. Perhaps, in the not-too-distant future, railways and factories will also be laid here."
Jiang Yun raised his head and looked at the vast and clear sky; his eyes seemed a little distant.
"Okay, when I grow up, I will also take the train. I will take the train to Mingdu to play with my big brother and big sister!"
The little girl clapped her hands, with a bright smile on her face.
————————————————————————
There was no oil lamp prepared in Jiang Yun's room. Although with Jiang Yun's current level of cultivation, his night vision was not much different from his day vision, he didn't want to read for a while.
In fact, in rural areas where soul guidance technology is not popularized, almost everyone works at sunrise and rests at sundown. Jiang Yun also lay on a bed covered with a thin layer of thatch and fell into a deep sleep. He flew for a whole day.
God, I'm still a little tired.
"ah!"
With a shrill scream, Jiang Yun woke up suddenly and jumped up from the bed. Jiang Yun's brows sank. He saw the light of the sky outside the house and smelled the smell of blood.
Jiang Yun rushed out of the wooden house and saw the villagers running away in panic; in the distance, there were several men in black robes with soul rings flashing around their bodies, setting fire to the village.
"Grandpa Soul Master, please spare our village!"
A middle-aged man with a sad face knelt down in front of a man in black robe; in the hands of the man in black robe, he was holding a crying girl, who turned out to be the little girl who chatted with Jiang Yun not long ago.
"Hey, you bunch of unfamiliar and unscrupulous people are really going to drink wine as a penalty instead of eating the toast!"
The man in black robe sneered and kicked out. The man rolled twice on the ground and spit out a large mouthful of blood.
"Don't hit my dad!"
The little girl suddenly cried louder, kicking her slender limbs feebly.
"puff!"
"stop!"
Under Jiang Yun's eyes that were tearing open, the man in black robe had a cold smile on his face, and suddenly thrust his claws into the little girl's chest.
"Wow, it's really full of life!"
The man in black robe took out the bloody black claws from the little girl's chest; the little girl's jewel-like blue eyes had lost their luster; her little mouth opened slightly, as if she was silently accusing this
Why is the world so cruel?
The hand of the man in black robe is no longer in the shape of a human hand, but has turned into a ferocious lizard-like black hand. His eyes have also turned into dark green vertical pupils, bifurcated.
The bright red tongue spit out from the mouth, looking extremely ferocious and evil under the night sky.
When Jiang Yun saw the girl being held by the man in black robe, Jiang Yun had already taken out his stun gun; however, he hesitated for a moment, worried that he would accidentally injure the hostage in the hands of the man in black robe. But right now
It was such a moment of hesitation that caused this girl to die at the hands of the evil soul master.
"Beast!"
Jiang Yun roared angrily, put away his electric gun, and an extremely dazzling sword rainbow rose into the sky!
Facing this terrifying sword light that seemed to be able to tear apart all darkness, the face of the black-robed evil soul master showed a light of horror. How could it be possible? How could this soul master, who looked like a young man, do it?
The sword light slashed down; the expression on the evil soul master's face froze, and in the next moment, the whole person was broken into two pieces, with internal organs, blood, and splatter everywhere.
This fourth-level evil soul master was killed by Jiang Yun with a sword before he could even unleash a single soul skill; Jiang Yun was still trembling slightly as he held Chixiao Baihong's hands.
