"I have insomnia, space, longing, and pictures of two people.
Whose tears, whose haggardness, and whose heartbreak are scattered on the ground.
My adventure alone, my seat alone... hum hum hum…"
Forgot the words.
Zhang Qingyuan was walking on the road with the sky full of stars above his head.
The whole night, the surroundings were very quiet, and the group of people who were following him and waiting for an opportunity had retreated.
Maybe there are some people who are talented in art and are bold and take risks, but they don't dare to get closer to Zhang Qingyuan easily when they are not absolutely sure.
Because even more than fifty people in the world have still not tested his bottom line, so no one dares to continue to take the initiative to die.
In the next ten days or so, Zhang Qingyuan experienced a total of three attacks and killings.
During these three attacks, he did not let them go, but killed them all under his horse.
Those who kill will always be killed.
In the past ten days, Zhang Qingyuan would deliberately explore the news in the world, especially about himself, wherever he went.
Regarding Zhang Qingyuan's reputation, there has been a slight change in the martial arts world.
This is mainly due to the fact that Zhang Qingyuan spared most people in the first two attacks. These people are still grateful that Zhang Qingyuan did not kill him.
On the other side, it is also due to the Taiyin Palace.
They took the initiative to release the news, saying that Zhang Qingyuan had been practicing in Taiyin Palace, so he had no chance to carry out the massacre.
As the top sect in the world and an upright Taoist sect, Taiyin Palace's words naturally carry weight.
But even so, rumors are still flying.
But fortunately there has been some improvement, not everyone is shouting for beatings.
And he was also much quieter. Although he still experienced three attacks and killings, this was mainly due to the two thousand taels of silver reward.
Although each of the three people had higher martial arts skills than the other, they were all under the master, and the masters at the master level did not participate.
Because he is a master-level figure and he is not stupid. Can he not see such an obvious lie?
In fact, ordinary martial arts people can also see it, but they will pretend to be stupid for the sake of the two thousand taels of silver.
There is never a shortage of news in the world, and new events happen every day.
Therefore, Zhang Qingyuan's popularity was quickly overshadowed by new hot searches.
Just as we were about to reach Taihang Mountain, three big news suddenly appeared in the world.
First of all, it is said that Yang Chen, who got the Starlight Sword, had mastered the Starlight Sword Technique, and then went to Jiangnan to challenge the Sword Immortal Li Qinglian, but was defeated by the Sword Immortal with one move and retired again.
Losing is normal.
Yang Chen became famous earlier than Zhang Qingyuan. As early as when Zhang Qingyuan first entered the martial arts world, Yang Chen stood out among the martial arts people and got the Starlight Sword.
But no matter how powerful the Starlight Sword is, no matter how good the swordsmanship is, who can use it, right?
In this world, there are countless people who use swords, and many master-level masters also use swords.
But among all the people in the martial arts world, only three people are on the list.
Sword God, Juggernaut and Sword Immortal.
Why do the three of them stand out among so many people who use swords? There is something unique about them.
The Sword God is the most powerful, the Sword Master is the main killer, and the Sword Immortal is the most carefree.
The three of them have never fought each other, but everyone in the world knows that sooner or later, these three will have a fight with each other.
Because among all the swordsmen in the world, the three of them are the best.
And now there is no duel, because the three of them are trying to contain each other. In the way of swordsmanship, the three of them are almost the same, so they are not absolutely sure and generally they will not fight.
As the world's top swordsman, how could he be compared to a fledgling young man?
The second news is that a demon has appeared in the world, called Demon Lord Thousand Eagles, and has killed no less than a dozen masters in the world.
This Thousand Eagle Demon Lord has been very high-profile since he appeared in the world. In just one month, he has disturbed the entire world.
It is said that among these dozen masters, two are masters.
One was the junior brother of the leader of Huashan Sect, and the other was Tianhengdao Zhou Tong. Both of them died in the hands of the Thousand Eagle Demon Lord.
The injuries were the same, leaving a palm print on the chest. This palm technique is called Thousand Evils and Ten Thousand Poisons Palm, which is extremely sinister. After being struck by the palm, the poison will cause death within half an hour.
The Thousand Eagle Demon Lord's bounty in the Wulin Alliance has accumulated to 3,500 taels, and there has been no news yet.
Evil martial arts have been disliked by people since ancient times. Although martial arts are not divided into good and evil, if they are used correctly, they will be good, and if they are used evil, they will be evil.
But from ancient times to the present, there seem to be few decent people who practice evil arts.
These people are either murderers or ruthless.
This is also a human characteristic. No matter who has gone through many vicissitudes of life, worked hard, and developed an evil skill, his mentality will become more and more abnormal.
Just like the superhero in the movie, after gaining superpowers, he sacrifices himself for others, and the scenes of protecting his family and country can only appear in movies.
In reality, if someone really has superpowers, the first thing they will probably do is profit for themselves.
Let’s not mention how many martial arts righteousness this Thousand Eagle Demon Lord has destroyed. The main thing is that he is cruel in his methods and also likes beauty very much.
Many young girls have been brutally murdered and had their flowers picked by them.
However, these have little to do with Zhang Qingyuan, after all, he himself is very anxious now.
The third news has been caught up by Zhang Qingyuan at this moment. This news is not unique to the world.
There was a drought in Kaifeng Prefecture.
As he was approaching the foot of Taihang Mountain, Zhang Qingyuan discovered that the place was suffering from drought when passing by Kaifeng Mansion, and the people had no harvest.
There is no way, in this era of purely agricultural support, without Academician Yuan's hybrid rice technology, if ordinary people want to survive, they rely solely on God's food. Any natural or man-made disaster will lead to the death of a large number of ordinary people.
Passing through several towns, roadblocks and robberies have occurred.
Some gnawed tree bark and grass roots.
For now, there is still bark to chew on.
After a period of time, if the court does not provide disaster relief, vicious events such as exchanging children for food will also occur.
After solving several bandits who blocked the road and robbed him, Zhang Qingyuan came to a town.
Looking at the thin people, he felt a slight pain in his heart.
In his previous life, due to the greatness of Academician Yuan, Zhang Qingyuan had never suffered from hunger, and he could not imagine what famine was.
But now that he was experiencing it personally, a sense of powerlessness surrounded him tightly.
On the street, a woman is leading her child to beg. Such scenes can be seen everywhere.
The poor child was sallow and skinny. He followed his mother and looked timidly at the passers-by.
Finally, my mother begged for half a steamed bun, but it was snatched away by the victims who were also begging.
There is no way, the will to survive has made them forget etiquette and morality, so they can only stutter and let them do anything.
The child was crying, the cry was miserable and sad.
Zhang Qingyuan slowly walked to the mother and son. The mother raised her head and said, "Master Dao, please give me some food. The child has not had a full meal in five days."
Zhang Qingyuan turned over and found that all the dry food he had brought with him was gone.
He said slightly apologetically: "Wait for me, I'll buy some."
Zhang Qingyuan wanted to do something for these people, but he didn't know what he should be able to do.
He doesn’t know how to make hybrid rice, and he doesn’t know how to bring the dead back to life.
As a modern man, he had a lot of modern knowledge in his head. He wanted to do something for these people, but after thinking for a long time, he still didn't know what he could do.
Because even if he is a time traveler, when facing tens of thousands of disaster victims, he can't figure out how to let these people survive.
Every moment I saw people being carried away from starvation or being eaten by wild dogs on the roadside.
Zhang Qingyuan's heart felt like it had been cut open by a knife.
He looked at his baggage, which contained the gold and silver jewelry that he had looted when he destroyed the Black Lotus Sect's branch.
Gritting his teeth, Zhang Qingyuan took the baggage to the jewelry store.
"After all, how much can I buy?"
The shopkeeper personally greeted them, took them over, counted them, and said with a smile: "Master Dao, to tell you the truth, in a year of great disaster, the price may not be too high."
"How many?"
"The maximum we can give is four thousand taels."
"Five thousand taels."
"Master Dao, you are making things difficult for us."
"Just five thousand taels!" Zhang Qingyuan glared at the shopkeeper. This was the first time he had spoken to someone in such a bullying manner.
The shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, Zhang Qingyuan's momentum was a little weaker.
"I know this is a disaster year. You may earn less, but it doesn't mean you don't make any money, right?"
After Zhang Qingyuan argued hard, the shopkeeper finally accepted it for 4,800 taels.
Zhang Qingyuan took back the sword on his neck and nodded with satisfaction.
After getting the money, Zhang Qingyuan came to the grain store as soon as possible. Normally, one stone of grain cost only two to three hundred cash, but now it has increased to five hundred cash and one stone.
Once it is approximately equal to one hundred catties, that is to say, Zhang Qingyuan's 4,800 taels of silver bought 9,600 shi of grain, which is 960,000 catties of grain.
Looks like a lot.
But there are more than a million victims in the entire Kaifeng Prefecture. Each person has one pound of food per day, and the money he has is not enough to spend on a meal.
Relying on this food alone is definitely not enough to rescue the entire Kaifeng Mansion.
But the town can barely hold on for a few days.
There are about hundreds of thousands of victims in the town, and they have two meals a day...
"well!"
Zhang Qingyuan asked the clerk at the grain store to set up a big pot on the cross street and start cooking porridge.
When cooking porridge, Zhang Qingyuan deliberately threw two handfuls of sand into the porridge.
If not for anything else, he was afraid that someone pretending to be a disaster victim would fish in troubled waters. This method was not the first of its kind in this world. Some people had done this in the previous dynasty.
When the porridge was ready, Zhang Qingyuan quickly brought a large bowl to find the mother and son.
When he found the mother and son holding the porridge bowl, he found that the youngest son had fallen asleep in his mother's arms.
Zhang Qingyuan held the bowl and hurried forward.
"Wake him up quickly. There's something to eat. I'm leaving porridge on the crossroads. If I'm hungry at night..."
Before he could finish speaking, his mother had tears in her eyes and shook her head slightly.
He raised his head and said desperately: "Thank you, Master Dao, no need..."
Snapped!
The bowl fell to the floor.
Zhang Qingyuan slapped himself in the mouth.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the classic sayings from Jin Yong's martial arts.
A great chivalrous person should serve the country and the people.
I looked back and thought about it.
The guy who posted two thousand taels of silver must be very rich, right?
That Thousand Eagle Demon Lord, he is worth three thousand taels.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qingyuan gritted his teeth.
Go to hell with your reputation,
Starting from tomorrow, I will make money!
