Chapter 559, do you still remember me?
Douluo Continent, the southwestern region of the Tiandou Empire, Fasno Province.
Notting City, Holy Soul Village.
The years have changed, but the nostalgia has not changed.
Even if the Holy Soul Village has come out of such a big figure as the Holy Son Dongqing of the Wuhun Temple, this village is still that small village with beautiful mountains and rivers and pleasant scenery.
One flower and one grass, one tree and one tree, all of these are as usual, even the cry of the frogs in the field ditch is still familiar from the past.
certainly.
Holy Soul Village is not completely unchanged. There are more old people in the village, and some new faces. They fight in the river fields with ignorant and innocent faces.
Catching fish and prawns, pretending to be housewine, climbing trees to dig out bird eggs, these children under the age of six don't have any pressure, they can enjoy their rare childhood wantonly.
【Explanation of special words: playing house wine, also known as playing house, a game played by some children in rural and rural areas. Children play different roles together. 】
【Decryption of special content: In the past, Dongqing relied on his fists. Under the jealous eyes of other boys, he once played the husband of all the six-year-old girls in the village. He is a well-deserved king of children! 】
It is worth mentioning that.
In recent years, Holy Soul Village has added a small road, a small road, but it is covered with cobblestones, and the road is not long. You can walk along the small road to the nearby Notting City.
But don't look at this is just a cobbled nameless path.
But the builder was very attentive, using black, white, and yellow pebbles to form beautiful patterns one after another.
The main color is white pebbles, and black and yellow pebbles are used as the base on both sides.
These patterns are arranged in sequence, and it looks amazing, like brilliant but never-fading flowers, quietly inlaid on both sides of the road.
In the morning, the sun was shining brightly.
Today is a very special day. It is rare for the adults not to go out to do farm work. They gathered together bustlingly, in the Wuhun branch hall in the center of the Holy Soul Village.
Moreover, compared to the old Wuhun branch hall built with two or three pieces of tattered wooden boards, this Wuhun branch hall has changed drastically, and the whole is built of precious wood.
Not to mention how much more luxurious this Wuhun branch hall is compared to the Wuhun branch halls in other villages!
Simply saying that this Wuhun branch hall has white-clothed deacons on duty all year round, it is enough to prove that this holy soul village is not simple, at least in the hearts of Wuhun hall.
Holy Soul Village, Wuhun Branch Hall.
"Goudan, today is the day for the awakening of the martial soul, you have to cheer up!"
"Dad, I will work hard!"
"Work hard. Child, this is born, you can't work hard the day after tomorrow, I hope your talent is not as bad as your father and me, you can't even feel a trace of innate soul power."
"It doesn't matter, even if you don't have talent, I can still help you farm."
"Forget it, you are still so young, so what kind of fields are you farming, just have fun."
I saw a big farmer wearing silk short-sleeves, rubbing the little boy who was only about one meter away, and a trace of love from his father appeared in the dark pupils.
"But... Dad, I also want to do my part." The little boy raised his head and said seriously.
Seeing the seriousness of the little boy, the farmer laughed and said, "God, you have nothing to do. Our Saint Soul Village is the village where His Royal Highness Dong Qing grew up, and his status is extraordinary. With his help all these years Under the circumstances, the Heaven Dou Empire exempted our village from taxes very early on."
"Dad, is tax exemption important?" The little boy's eyes widened.
The big farmer smiled again and said: "Of course it's important. Exemption from taxes means that we rural people who are at the bottom, as long as we don't slack off when we work and there are no uncontrollable natural and man-made disasters, we must have surplus food every year. It will get better and better."
"By the way, your father and I have seen such a sentence in the news newspaper founded by His Royal Highness Dongqing, in the whole world, could it be the land of the king, and the shore of the land, could it be the minister of the king."
"In the great Heaven Dou Empire, our Holy Soul Village has the privilege of exempting the whole village from taxes. Of course, if His Royal Highness Dongqing hadn't fought for this right for us ordinary people, our Holy Soul Village would have no chance of getting tax exemption at all. qualifications."
"Exemption of taxes in a remote and sparsely populated village may be just a matter of words for His Highness Dongqing, but it is a matter of life and death for us."
Speaking of the end, the farmer was quite emotional. He never expected the soul master who went out to return to his hometown.
Decades of life experience told him that after most ordinary people become soul masters, they classify themselves in the noble class, and never remember that they were born ordinary.
"Father, according to what you say, His Highness Dongqing is really nice!" The little boy said with his eyes widened.
Hearing his son praise Dongqing.
Do not know why.
The farmer suddenly thought of his wife, who was in a daze at Dongqing's portrait. He suddenly felt that the sun hat on his head was a little green.
"Dongqing is not as good as you think. He liked to be mischievous when he was a child. Dad actually didn't like him in his heart, but he never expected that he is a man who never forgets his original intention. After successfully walking out of this remote village, he never forgot about us. These uncles and aunts."
Originally, the farmer wanted to complain, but in the end, he changed his words to praise.
No other.
Simply exempting the whole village from taxes is enough for him to erect a longevity monument for Dongqing. If the big farmer really wants to speak ill of Dongqing against his conscience, he really can't say it.
no way.
The more he is at the bottom of the society, the more he likes to talk about conscience, and he doesn't want to owe anyone. Even if the world is sorry for him, he will not blame the world.
As for those who abandon their conscience and only want to climb up, as long as they are not too unlucky, they will not be at the bottom of society.
Of course, in this world, more people have to be the kind of people who have a bit of conscience, but not many people, such as Dongqing, are such people.
simply put.
Dong Qing is similar to an ordinary person, but he himself is not ordinary. It can be said that he is very special.
"Dad, I heard that two people walked out of our village."
"That man! His name is Tang San, a strange kid, very unpleasant."
"Dad, why is that?"
"It's hard to say, it's different from Dongqing's mischievousness, but it's not that annoying in itself. This Tang San, although he has a mature personality and can take care of his alcoholic father at a young age, Tang San is really not likable. Seriously speaking, Tang San is the kind of person who makes people feel disgusted from the bottom of their hearts."
"Dad, I don't understand"
"Forget it if you don't understand. Originally, the Tang family's father and son moved away from Holy Soul Village suddenly. I thought that alcoholic Tang Hao was mentally ill. But when your father was making farm tools, he bumped into him in a blacksmith's shop in Notting City. Discovered that his child Tang San possesses innate spirit power and is studying at Notting City Elementary Soul Master Academy."
While the farmer was talking to the little boy, there was a very young mother and daughter on the other side.
"Girl, do you know where the current Holy Son of Wuhundian comes from?"
"Mom, I know, I know, he comes from our Holy Soul Village."
"Well, children can be taught." The young mother nodded in satisfaction.
However, the next moment, what the little girl said almost made a little boy who had just walked up jump up in fright.
After the little girl finished saying this, she raised her little face recklessly, waiting for her mother to praise her for being smart.
It stands to reason.
This little girl will definitely get a spanking for her unscrupulous words.
But at this time, the young mother didn't have time to care about such trivial matters at all. She stared blankly at the little boy who had just walked in in front of her.
"Dongqing. Is what the newspaper said true? Have you really changed back to your six-year-old appearance?"
"Sister Huiru, I still have something to do, see you by fate."
Dong Qing lifted back the little feet that had just stepped out, and then left this place of right and wrong in a hurry.
ten minutes later.
Holy Soul Village, south of the village, under a towering tree.
Dong Qing looked at the Wuhun Branch Hall in the center of the village, and shook his head slightly. He originally wanted to observe the Wuhun Awakening Ceremony, but he had to give up this idea.
As for the so-called sister Huiru, Dongqing actually knew a lot. At the beginning, not to mention girls of the same age in Shenghun Village, she also knew everyone who was a few years older than him.
Which of these women had no idea about Dongqing, but Dongqing didn't give them a chance. After awakening his martial soul at the age of six, he followed Juhuaguan and yo-yoed.
Dong Qing has nothing to do with these nympho, only yo-yo.
Not to mention the old friends of the Holy Soul Village.
these years.
As Dongqing's reputation continues to spread across the mainland, more and more women like him, the number can even be said to be in the tens of thousands, and it is impossible for him to respond to all of them.
Really see one and love the other?
Dongqing is not that scumbag yet!
The only thing Dongqing can do now is to appease the women around him. As for those who like him unilaterally, they can only say sorry in the end.
Thinking.
Another ten minutes passed,
Unknowingly, under the warm and comfortable sunshine, Dong Qing fell asleep lying under the big tree.
"Xiaoqing, don't sleep, go home and eat!" A familiar voice sounded.
"I'm back, Grandpa Jack." Dong Qing rubbed his eyes and said subconsciously.
But the next moment.
Dong Qing stood up and slowly regained consciousness, looking at the old man in front of him who looked at him kindly.
He, who was originally timid because of his closeness to his hometown, no longer felt embarrassed, and immediately rushed towards the old man in front of him, his small body plunged into the old body.
"Grandpa Jack, I'm back." Dong Qing said softly.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Seeing that Xiaoqing is fine, grandpa is relieved. Let's go back with grandpa for dinner. Grandpa made your favorite braised pork ribs."
Village Chief Jack stretched out a pair of slightly old hands, and gently rubbed the fluffy hair on the top of Dongqing's head, and there was a trace of vicissitudes in his cloudy eyes.
Benefit from the invisible blessing of the Millennium Willow Heart Scepter.
At this time, Village Chief Jack is in good spirits. Although he is an old man over eighty years old, he looks no different from an old man in his fifties or sixties.
But even with the invisible blessing of the thousand-year-old willow heart, a fairy plant.
Dong Qing could still feel that the life of this kind old man in front of him was about to come to an end, and the Millennium Liu Muxin could at most let him die without illness or pain.
It’s not that the thousand-year-old willow heart has a false name, it’s just that mortal bodies have limits. As long as the life level does not evolve, dying is the best destination for mortals.
At the same time, it's not that Dongqing is reluctant to part with his own blood, but that mortals simply don't have the ability to absorb the blood of pure-blooded skyhorned ants.
When Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin absorbed Dong Qing's blood, the pure blood of the Skyhorn Ant whose bloodline awakening degree was only about 20% almost burned her whole body to ashes.
Now Dongqing's bloodline awakening rate has reached 50%, and the bloodline strength has been sublimated to the extreme, even surpassing the bloodline strength of the first pure-blooded astrohorned ant.
Don't talk about absorbing it now, if mortals dare to touch Dong Qing's blood, they might be turned into a ball of ashes immediately.
A lot of things, not because I don’t want to, but because I can’t.
the most important is.
Dongqing understands that the village head Jack wanted to leave a long time ago, leaving this world to find his former wife. His only concern in this world is himself.
Seeing that he is living a good life, his time is approaching, and he may soon come to an end.
This is also the reason why Dongqing didn't dare to go back directly when he returned to Holy Soul Village. After going around in a big circle, he didn't expect that he was still found by Village Chief Jack under the big tree.
Speak the truth.
The last time Dongqing got the thousand-year-old willow heart and dared not come back. He was also afraid that Village Chief Jack would die early.
But. After all, he still has to come back for a look. It is impossible that he will never come back in this life.
【Immortal Spiritual Plant—Millennium Willow Heart】
【Owner: Chief Jack. 】
【From the gift of Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, it has now been cast into a scepter. 】
It is said that it is a thousand-year-old willow heart, but in fact, only the ten-thousand-year willow in the core area of the Star Dou Forest can have a thousand-year willow heart. It is an extremely rare treasure.
Not to mention its rarity, but in terms of value alone, it is not inferior to the fairy herb of Binghuo Liangyiyan.
Ordinary people can eliminate all diseases by smelling it, and can prolong life after taking a small bite.
Holy Soul Village, the home of the village head.
Beside an unpretentious table, sitting one old and one young, the old man looked rosy, and the young children kept holding the braised pork ribs on the plate with their bowls and chopsticks.
"Grandpa, how do you know I'm under that big tree?" Dong Qing asked curiously.
"Because Xiaoqing used to like basking in the sun under that big tree. When he knew you were back, grandpa knew right away, Xiaoqing, you secretly hid there to bask in the sun." Village Chief Jack said kindly.
"Didn't I come back secretly? I didn't take anyone with me at all, and I didn't notify anyone." Dong Qing was puzzled.
"In other places, you may not be able to recognize Xiaoqing now. Their understanding of you, Xiaoqing, is basically from the newspapers, but this is the village where you grew up. From the moment you stepped into the village, you It has been recognized by others," explained Village Chief Jack.
"Does everyone still remember me?" Dong Qing couldn't help touching the back of his head.
"Xiaoqing, you helped all the villagers of Holy Soul Village avoid heavy taxes. Who in the village can forget you?" asked Village Chief Jack.
"Grandpa, I grew up in the village, this is what I should do." Dong Qing scratched his head embarrassedly and said.
