Chapter 54
Time is a good thing, it verifies people's hearts and bears witness to human nature.

Time is also very fair, whether you are a prince or a nobleman, or a peddler, He will not care about anyone, and will only move forward.

A month later, in the northern part of the Heaven Dou Empire, in Rochester Province, an ordinary carriage was slowly driving towards Lahe City.

Inside the car was the Wuhundian group, to be precise, Qian Ningshuang and his group.

Originally, they were planning to go directly to Tiandou City, but Qian Renxue received news that she was not in Tiandou City, but was in charge of disaster relief in Tiandou North Territory—it was exactly the letter Qian Renxue told Qian Ningshuang half a year ago. mentioned drought.

Maybe Qian Ningshuang guessed right, there were too many insects, or the drought affected a little bit more, or it could be both. The fake prince Xue was dispatched to take charge of the disaster relief.

Of course, Qian Ningshuang could choose to wait for Qian Renxue in Tian Dou City, but after thinking about it, she came directly to Tian Dou North. She could see Qian Renxue in advance and see how serious the drought was. To what extent.

Qian Ningshuang stood outside the carriage door, staring at the arid land.

As a traveler, she has never seen the so-called drought that can be so terrifying. The worst drought she has ever experienced is just that water needs to be stored in advance.

The cracked earth is like the wrinkles on the old man's face after the wind and frost, so clear and profound, so helpless and sad.

On the side of the road were large trees that were dry and cracked and had lost their bark, as well as crowds of refugees in twos and threes.

There are also corpses that fall on the side of the road at any time without any restraint.

All of these are describing to her how terrifying the drought in feudal society can be.

Qian Zhongling, who was the driver, saw that Qian Ningshuang had been looking at the land in silence for a long time, and he was silent for a long time. Finally, he still said: "Shuang'er, get in the car, it's almost time to reach Lahe City. "

"Ah."

After taking a deep look at the land again, imprinting this tragic scene in her mind, Qian Ningshuang turned around and returned to the carriage.

"Ugh……."

Looking at Qian Ningshuang who had already entered the carriage, Qian Zhongling sighed. He had seen too many scenes that were much more tragic than this, and it was hard to cause waves in his heart.

But Qian Ningshuang is different, not to mention that she is still a child, just those thoughts that are completely different from her peers and are too kind, it is estimated that this scene shocked her deeply.

Although it was always said that Qian Ningshuang was the reliance of Qian Zhongling to resist the God Realm, and the experience was indispensable, but for now, let's take it slow.

What's more, Qian Ningshuang was able to keep this scene in his heart, which made him very satisfied.

Tian Yue, Gu Yuena and Gu Qiuer were all in the car, but today Qian Ningshuang was no longer in the mood to play with her companions, she just closed her eyes and started to meditate.

Tian Key and the others also understood that Qian Ningshuang had something on her mind, so they didn't bother, and began to practice after learning from Qian Ningshuang.

In the time of two meals, Lach City has arrived.

The gate of the city is not as bustling as other cities, except for two guards who slumped to rest in the shade of the city wall.

There was also a young man hanging on the city gate, obviously dead, maybe a soul master used his means, and the corpse covered with scars still showed no signs of decay in this hot weather.

There was no slap in the face, and there was no bribery. The two guards just stood up and saluted respectfully, and then let the group enter the city.

Those who could come to Lahe City at this time were still riding a carriage. At the same time, the clothes on Qian Zhongling's body and Qian Ningshuang, whose appearance had grown slightly, showed that this group of people was not offended by the two guards. affordable.

Qian Ningshuang had already walked out of the car door again at the gate of the city. She looked at Lahe City and said nothing, but just wrote down the young man hanging on the city wall.

If she observed correctly, it was a soul master, or a three-ringed soul master.

You must know that in Douluo, people who die and still hang on the city walls are all people who have committed some serious crime and are used to warn the public.

Being able to hang the body of a Soul Venerable on the city wall shows that the situation in Lahe City is very serious.

After entering the city, the group did not go to the Martial Soul Branch Hall because of the reason to conceal their identity, and just found a decent hotel.

In this year, there are still guests who come to stay in the store, plus the generous money given by the group, the boss is naturally overjoyed, and he helps the group arrange rooms.

The room was arranged, and the boss brought a few people to the restaurant for dinner, and sent some ingredients for them to use.

"Several guests wait for a while, I have already sent someone to inform the kitchen to add dishes." The boss said respectfully, "You can just order dishes later, and if you need help, just ask."

Seeing that it was a sumptuous meal, Qian Ningshuang asked suspiciously, "Didn't you say that the drought in the north is very serious? Boss, don't you need to worry about the cost of food here?"

"Guest officer, you don't know anything about it. Other hotels may be worried about food. Of course, my family doesn't need it at all."

Speaking of this, the boss's face was full of proud dark colors.

"Why?" Tian Key couldn't help but ask.

"Let's not say that there are not many guests for ten days and a half months in this year, so I can save a lot of food.

"Even if there are many guests and the food consumption is a bit high, then don't worry, my son is on duty in the Wuhun branch hall, as long as you spend more money, you can keep enough food."

The boss still had that proud look.

"Is there a lot of food in the Spirit Hall now?" Qian Ningshuang asked again, and Gu Yuena also looked at the boss curiously.

Qian Zhongling realized something and took out five gold soul coins and placed them on the table.

"That's not it. For the sake of your generous money, I will tell you quietly."

Having said this, the boss's voice softened, and he leaned over to the table and put the gold soul coins into his sleeves without a trace.

"The food in the Wuhun branch hall is not only a lot, but a lot, enough to feed the disaster victims around Lahe City for half a month, and it's still the kind that is full."

"Where did the Wuhun Branch come from so much food?"

Qian Ningshuang was puzzled. Although she guessed that there were insects, there were enough for the victims outside the city to eat for half a month, which was a bit scary, not to mention the behavior of insects led by his Spirit Hall.

"This……"

An embarrassed look appeared on the boss's face. This time, Qian Zhongling took out his purse and put it on the table.

Opened the purse and looked at it, the boss swallowed, then walked to the restaurant door and looked around, then turned back to the table.

"The reason for the large amount is that some of the food for disaster relief was hidden by the city owner, and at the same time, there is also the food that the big households in the city hoarded in the past.

"Then it was handed over to the master of the Wuhun Branch Hall, and the strongest in the city, Lord Liu Jing, took care of it.

"Today, for the sake of gold soul coins, I risked beheading to tell the guests.

"Don't tell outsiders."

Hearing that everyone except Qian Zhongling looked at each other in dismay, Qian Ningshuang couldn't help but ask again, "Didn't it say that Prince Tiandou came to take charge of disaster relief, doesn't he care?"

The boss smiled wryly and shook his head.

"His Royal Highness is in Linshi City, and Emperor Tiangao is far away, so what should I do?

"Furthermore, the food is stored in the Wuhun branch hall, and the prince can't check it if he knows about it.

"What's more, it's not just the Rah City family who do this. There are many cities in the north that do this. With so many people, it's not easy for the prince to deal with it directly."

Qian Ningshuang was silent, but Qian Zhongling took out a bag of money again and handed it to the boss.

"Children are curious, sorry to trouble you, boss, we will definitely not say anything about today's affairs.

"You go to work first."

The boss didn't collect the money this time and quit. He could see that the identity of this group of people was not simple. At first, he went for the money. When he talked about these dirty things, a trace of anger appeared in his heart. I hope these big people can really take care of it. He looks scared at the disaster victims outside the city.It's just that people are soft-spoken and can only take care of their own family.

Qian Ningshuang and his party lost their interest in speaking, they just finished their meal in silence and went back to their rooms to rest.
