Chapter 357 Daoxiang Village
Daoxiang Village has always been independent of the world. The villagers live according to the rules of sunrise and sunset, and this has been the case for generations.
The villagers are all familiar with each other, and almost all the elders have witnessed the growth of two generations.
The number of foreigners who usually come here usually changes every few decades.
Today, a new face came to Daoxiang Village, a young man.
Wearing blood-colored clothes, the fishy smell can be smelled from a mile away.
The young man was lying under a locust tree, staring blankly at the sky.
Not far from the locust tree, there was a tavern. There was only an old man and his granddaughter in the tavern.
"Who are you?"
The little girl covered her nose and asked the boy lying under the tree from a distance of one or two meters.
"Girl, come back quickly! Don't run around!"
The old man packed up the tables and chairs and looked up to see his granddaughter approaching the young man in blood-clothed clothes. He was so frightened that he ran over quickly.
"But grandpa..."
The little girl wanted to say something else, but the old man covered her mouth and took her back to the tavern.
What kind of smell is on the clothes? How could the old man not know that at such a long time?
If he hadn't looked at this young man, who was carrying a sword and didn't look like a bad guy, the old man would have already called others to report to the police.
But even if he doesn't report it to the official, it's impossible for his granddaughter to have contact with this young man. It's too dangerous.
How many kills does it take to have your clothes dyed red?
The reason for not reporting this young man is because the profession of swordsman is trusted by the public.
Even if these swordsmen attack bureaucrats and kill nobles, it is rare to hear of swordsmen killing people.
They are the protectors of the people, and they help the people protect their interests in the hands of the nobles.
"Don't talk so much, come with me."
The old man spent a lot of time before catching this ten-year-old girl back. He was almost ninety, and he had a son at an old age. Who would have thought that his son only had a daughter when he was in his thirties.
Even though this is just a girl, she is the only child of their family. If anything happens to anyone, nothing will happen to this girl.
That young man was Yi. After killing all the demon clan's army and even wreaking havoc in the demon clan's territory for a while, he was finally attacked by the demon kings. With his strength, even if he had a jade sword to provide him with strength, he would not be able to survive in front of him.
When dealing with multiple demon kings, they are still powerless.
He was defeated, he did not kill all the monsters, and he did not achieve his goal of avenging Master Dolan.
But... so what if he killed all the demon clan? Did he really vent all the anger in his heart? Including the anger towards the demon clan and the anger towards himself.
"grandfather--"
In the tavern, the little girl acted coquettishly and wanted to continue to get close to Yi. Although Yi smelled of blood and smelled bad, which made her very uncomfortable, Yi was a swordsman and that sword said everything.
A swordsman who encountered things unimaginable to ordinary people, his experiences are very attractive to little girls.
"Girl, be obedient and stay here well. Grandpa is here to deal with the swordsman."
The old man locked the little girl in the room and locked the windows as well. Then he took out a set of young people's clothes from the closet and walked out of the tavern.
"Boy, I don't care who you are. You are lucky today. You are a swordsman."
, I have no ill intentions towards the swordsman, please take this clothes and wear them, lest you be caught by the patrolling officials."
The old man walked to the locust tree, placed his clothes not far from Yi, and then left.
He also had to take care of himself. Being close to Yi had put him under a lot of psychological pressure. Who made the smell of blood on Yi so heavy?
If it was just about eradicating rape and evil, why would we need to kill so many people?
There is a story about this young man, and it is not an ordinary story. The old man did not dare to ask, and he would not ask. He only provided a set of clothes for the sake of Yi being a swordsman. He did not know how to do anything else.
.
The old man left, leaving Yi alone under the locust tree. However, Yi did not move the clothes, or even his whole body, and stared at the sky blankly.
A few days later.
"Grandpa, that swordsman is still lying there, do you really don't need to care about it?"
Today, it was raining heavily outside. The rainwater wet the clothes the old man sent over, and also wet Yi's face.
Yi didn't know why he came here, nor how he came here, but it didn't matter. Fiona was dead, Texas was dead, Master Dolan was dead, and his parents were dead.
, almost everyone around him died.
And the culprit that caused all this was himself.
At least that's what he thinks.
"Why bother with that guy? Just let him fend for himself."
The old man couldn't take a breath. They were just a small village here. If they opened a hotel, they might not have a guest come here for ten days and a half. Even so, the old man still took out a set of almost brand-new clothes.
Put it in front of Yi.
Although Yi didn't change his clothes at that time, maybe he was shy? He was embarrassed to change his clothes in broad daylight, but who would have thought that the boy didn't care about the clothes he gave away, which was equivalent to the old man's two months' income.
.
For better or worse, this is the old man's view of Yi.
He doesn't eat or drink, he doesn't accept other people's kindness, and he even spoils others' thoughts.
The clothes I bought with two months of income are now being contaminated in the pouring rain.
Why bother with such a person anymore?
"But grandpa——"
The little girl still couldn't bear it. Yi was a swordsman. The little girl liked and admired the swordsman the most. She had heard from her grandfather since she was a child that it was the swordsman who saved her parents, although she had not seen her parents for a long time.
Parents.
"Obey, don't get close to that swordsman."
In a few days, the patrolling officials will almost arrive at Daoxiang Village. Fortunately, it rained heavily today and the blood stained on the young man's clothes was washed away. Otherwise, with this young man's performance and attitude, the officials would wait until
When I came here, I was inevitably held in jail by the officials for interrogation.
Such a strong smell of blood and so much blood cannot be achieved by simply killing a few bandits to protect the people.
"snort--"
The little girl was very dissatisfied. In the past few years, the old man had always told her that swordsmen were good people and that swordsmen saved her parents. However, now, a swordsman encountered misfortune and when she wanted to help him, her grandfather was not allowed to do so.
By allowing her to do this, isn't it because she wants to repay the favor?
"I know you are very dissatisfied, but you don't understand many things now. Just listen to grandpa obediently."
The old man sighed. He didn't know what Yi had done, and he didn't want to know. He just hoped that the things that this young man had done would not involve Daoxiang Village.
"I still don't understand."
The little girl is very smart. Other peers cannot compare with this little girl. But no matter how smart she is, she is just a little girl who has never left the village and lacks knowledge.
"Then don't understand. Knowing too much is not a good thing. Ignorance is the way for us people to settle down and live in peace."
The old man is well-informed and has experienced too much. His granddaughter is as smart as his son, or even smarter. However, he is a commoner, and his granddaughter is just a commoner. It is not a good thing for commoners to be too smart.
Especially this is a girl.
"Grandpa, you are so bad, I have to help him."
The girl's eyes were very firm. She was indeed very young, but she was the most favored person in the family. Her grandfather had never hit her or scolded her, and the same was true for her parents.
Therefore, she can do things that are not in line with the expectations of her elders.
She thought it would be the same this time.
However, the old man slapped her in the face.
"go back!"
The old man ordered his granddaughter indifferently. There was no pain in his palm because he didn't use any force, but his heart was hurting. He hit his granddaughter, his favorite granddaughter.
"...Uh wow——"
The little girl touched her face, looked at her grandfather blankly, suddenly burst into tears and ran back to her room.
"...Child, don't blame grandpa, you are just a civilian, don't get involved in those things."
The old man's son and daughter-in-law haven't seen his granddaughter for a long time, because they are both dead, at the hands of their trusted swordsman.
The old man prefers not to report to the government, and even his son and daughter-in-law have been recognized as criminals. How can the old man accept all this? Obviously his son and daughter-in-law saved a swordsman and were thanked by the swordsman. Suddenly, they were thanked by the swordsman.
Killed and became a sinner.
He didn't dare to resist or say anything. He told his granddaughter that the swordsman saved her parents, but he just didn't want his granddaughter to seek revenge from the swordsman. He didn't have the ability, and neither did she.
The final result is nothing more than being killed by the swordsman in the name of a sinner.
It's not worth it.
Even though the old man believed that there were only a few swordsmen like that, he still couldn't let his granddaughter get close to the swordsman. He was afraid that his granddaughter would learn the truth from other swordsmen and seek revenge on the swordsman.
Seeing his granddaughter running back to the room, the old man held an umbrella and walked to Yi's side.
"When are you leaving?"
The old man spoke to Yi. He spoke next to Yi, but Yi ignored him.
"..."
Yi was still looking at the sky. He had seen bright skies and gloomy skies. He was burned by the sun and washed by the rain, but he had no reaction.
"You should leave as soon as possible. We are just a small village here. There are no fights and there shouldn't be any fights. You should leave so that we can continue to enjoy this rare peace."
