Luo Xie had no choice but to walk back to the table.
Fang Canran had already put some rabbit meat and chicken on the plate. Weng Xing also poured the chicken bones over and handed the plate to him: "Here, take it."
This time, as soon as Luo Xie handed the plate over the fence, the oldest child grabbed it, and the others nearby immediately rushed to grab it.
They were timid just now, but in the blink of an eye they turned into hungry little wolves, stuffing the snatched things into their mouths immediately without fear of choking to death.
Luo Xie could even see the fierce green light in their eyes.
He walked back to the table and sat down, looking back again and again: "Are these kids stupid? They don't want money, they want leftovers."
"You are the one who doesn't understand the situation." Weng Xing said coldly, "Have you never heard of showing off your wealth? Even adults here may not be able to protect their money bags, let alone these half-grown kids. If you give them money, hehe, within fifteen steps, the money will be snatched away by others."
"They all know very well." Weng Xing pointed at the children who were fighting for food, "They all know that the money is not theirs. They only have a chance with the leftovers on our table, gnawed chicken bones and rabbit heads, and things that others look down upon."
Luo Xie was silent, then sighed.
"You are in the upside-down sea, so you can't see this scene, right?"
Luo Xie shook his head: "The Inverted Sea is full of spiritual energy and abundant crops. At the very least, everyone can have a full meal. The only difference is whether the food is good or not. We eat simple food, while the Illusion Sect eats delicious food."
"A place that gathers the power of shining gold to provide nourishment is really different?" Weng Xing sneered, "Eating a full meal every day? Hey, let alone in Baita Town, even in Jucheng, where wealth is thriving, that is the lifelong dream of many people."
Luo Xie lowered his head and said nothing.
Fang Canran came to his rescue: "Most of the spiritual energy from the Gathering Spirit Array was used by True Man Qianhuan and the Huan Sect. The common people in the Upside Down Sea just had a sip of the watery soup, and it was involuntarily taken."
Luo Xie sighed: "Every few years, Yakshas invade the Upside-Down Sea to eat people. We originally thought that was the great terror of the human world, but compared to this place—"
He shook his head.
After all, the Yaksha invasion lasted only a short time. Compared with the Shining Gold Plains, the Upside-Down Sea was like heaven.
This is the great terror of the world: the hopelessness and numbness that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, and the hunger and poverty that can never be overcome.
"So this land needs the Nine Nether Emperor and the reincarnated Dragon God." Fang Canran said seriously, "I believe that only he has the ability to change the current Flash Gold."
He paused, looked up at the sky, and added:
"We also need an endless supply of Emperor's Flowing Liquid."
The civilians in the Upside-Down Sea were saved from starvation because of the abundant spiritual energy. Although Qian Huan's original intention of establishing the positive and negative Tiangang formation was not for them, when the immortals ate meat, they also drank a mouthful of soup.
At this time, He Lingchuan came back, followed by a skinny old man with dark skin, who nodded and bowed to everyone.
"This is Mao Lizheng, who manages Baita Town." He Lingchuan introduced, "He said that other things were found in the collapsed mine. The pit is currently kept as it is. Brother Fang, you are an expert in identifying rare objects. How about accompanying me to the next mine?"
Fang Canran’s answer was, of course:
"no problem!"
The mine is located in the back mountain of Baita Town, and it takes half an hour to get there on horseback.
He Lingchuan and Fang Canran rode side by side, and the other three fell behind, leaving them space to talk alone.
"Brother Fang, what do you want from me?"
Today, Fang Canran took the initiative to find He Lingchuan, and was temporarily pulled out to eat and appraise items.
"I told you about that three days ago—" The forest was very quiet, with only the sound of horse hooves, and Fang Canran's voice was also very peaceful, "—I have made up my mind, and I must do it!"
Three days ago, he took the initiative to talk to He Lingchuan, hoping to follow in the footsteps of his ancestor Shao Jian, that is, to spread the Xinglong Pillar to the outside world.
After hearing this, He Lingchuan advised him to calm down and not act impulsively.
Then he calmed down for three days and came to He Lingchuan to express his position.
"Brother Fang, you need to know..."
He Lingchuan had just begun to speak when he was interrupted by Fang Canran: "I know, I know everything you want to say, I know the dangers and difficulties you will face in doing this, and I know your intentions."
He Lingchuan hesitated to speak.
"I have made up my mind." Fang Canran said in a deep voice, "Besides, I don't need you to make the decision for me in this matter."
He Lingchuan shook his head: "I still remember the scene when Mr. Shao left. I just don't hope, and I can't wait for your return."
"Brother He, what you are doing is ten times more difficult and arduous than what I am doing. You are determined to do it, so how can I be afraid of losing my life?" Fang Canran said with a smile, "You also saw those children outside the fence just now, right?"
He Lingchuan hummed. He always kept an eye on everything. "Those might be the children of miners."
A child without a father is like a blade of grass in this chaotic world. Once the wind, frost, rain or snow comes, it will be gone.
"What we have to do may give them a chance, a chance to live, a chance to grow up." Fang Canran's eyes were filled with longing, "As long as the spiritual energy in the world is abundant and not taken away, everyone can live a little easier."
No matter how much the rain or dew gets, it will benefit the poorest people the most.
He asked He Lingchuan again: "Just tell me where is the best place to go to get things done?"
Where is the best place to spread the Xinglong Pillar?
He Lingchuan knew that he had made up his mind and it was useless to dissuade him, so he said, "It's better to go west or southwest of Beiga, which is the territory of Kshatriya Heaven."
When Fang Canran spread the Dragon Pillars, of course he couldn’t send them directly to the believers of the Lingxu Gods, otherwise he would be giving away treasures for nothing.
"Kshatriyas have been on the rise recently, and several great gods are very active. In comparison, the Lingxu gods have suffered heavy losses, and are being ridiculed because of the death of Miaozhantian and a dozen of his subordinates." Fang Canran pondered, "I just received a piece of news that Lingxu Saint's subordinate god Xipu was killed by someone, no, by a god on his way to the joint meeting."
He Lingchuan was startled: "When?"
"Two and a half days ago, that is, the night we met." The world is full of coincidences. That day, he had just learned the true identity of Qianhuan Zhenren and wanted to do the same feat as his ancestor Shao Jian, but that night he received the news that this god had fallen.
This further strengthened his determination to use the Dragon Pillar to stir up trouble.
The demon world is already in chaos before he even takes action; if he can use the Dragon Punishment Pillar to further intensify the conflict between the gods and demons, what a blessing that would be for the human world?
"The murderer has not been found yet. Lingxu people suspect that it was done by Kshatriya Tianxia, because Xipu God and Kshatriya Tianxia have grudges against several gods; Kshatriya Tianxia claims that it was done by a traitor in Lingxu people, and then put the blame on them. The two sides are arguing endlessly."
Fang Canran paused for a moment and said, "God Xipu is an important subordinate god under the Holy God Lingxu, and is often responsible for conveying the Holy Will to the outside world."
