Watch Out! Danger Ahead
Chapter 2259 - Chapter 2259 Chapter 168-strange movement (1)

Chapter 2259: Chapter 168-strange movement (1) Chapter 2259: Chapter 168-strange movement (1) Ever since she was woken up by uncle Shan and realized that her power and silver Wolf were sealed, she had wondered if she was hallucinating when she woke up.

However, as the ‘benevolence’ character appeared in her palm, she realized that the scene was not an illusion.

She recalled the strange burning sensation she felt when she held the taihao heavenly book in her hand after killing wondrous writing.

Back then, the taihao heavenly book had become extremely hot. However, her immortal state had changed and she had been pulled into this space before she could sense it.

Now that song qingxiao thought about it, she guessed that it must have been at that time that the ‘Ren’ word had melded into her palm.

It was not clear what kind of changes would happen if the ‘benevolence’ token was removed. The worst result would be the same as now, with its power being temporarily sealed.

If her current situation was really related to the influence of the taihao heavenly book, song qingxiao would not have to worry.

This item was something that the East Qin Wu Guan had specially given to the younger generation of the family before leaving.

Song qingxiao did not believe that this great Dao realm expert had not discovered the secret of the taihao heavenly book. However, since he dared to stay, it meant that there was a chance of survival on this trip.

As she was thinking, she suddenly felt that something was wrong. Then, she heard uncle Shan’s voice.

“Are you alright?”

Her heart skipped a beat. Subconsciously, she closed her palms together and blocked the ‘Ren’ character that was floating in her palm.

Song qingxiao turned around and saw the old man who had woken her up in the evening standing a few steps away from her. He seemed to be a little worried.

As her strength was sealed, her five senses had decreased a lot, and she only noticed someone when they were so close.

“I’m fine.”

She shook her head. Before uncle Shan came over, she glanced at her secretly unclenched fist from the corner of her eye, only to find that the ‘Ren’ character that had appeared in her palm had disappeared without a trace.

There were only some dried black blood stains on his palm, and the previous scene seemed to be an illusion.

Uncle Shan had already taken off his bamboo hat and was carrying it on his back.

He seemed to be very cautious. He stood in the same place for a while, and after making sure that song qingxiao was fine, he walked over to her.

“Don’t mind him.”

He walked to song qingxiao’s side and copied her. He sat down under the big tree and sighed.

everyone didn’t mean to give you the cold shoulder. It wasn’t brother Quan’s fault that he didn’t want to bring you along at the beginning …

Song qingxiao nodded and was not angry.

“I understand.”

Uncle Shan squeezed out a smile.

“.. Everyone’s life isn’t good.”

Song qingxiao turned to look at him. Only now did she carefully size up the old man who had awakened her.

He didn’t look young, at least equivalent to the lifespan of an ordinary person who was over 60 years old.

At this age, he should be enjoying his remaining years at home, but he was still following a caravan out to make a living.

Uncle Shan was very thin. He was wearing a slanted short-sleeved shirt, and the bones around his neck bulged out, leaving only a thin layer of skin.

His feet were bare. Even though there was a thick layer of calluses on his feet, the rugged mountain Road still cut his feet. Blood flowed out of some of the cracks and mixed with the mud on them, forming a thick layer of blood and mud scabs that coagulated around his feet.

“Uncle Shan, where did you come from?”

Although her power had been suppressed and she had no evidence to prove that she was in the trial of the divine prison, song qingxiao still subconsciously began to investigate the background of this group of people, trying to find some clues from uncle mountain.

“We’re all from Ningyuan County. We’re far from here.”

He smiled and said, ”

“Nowadays, the world is not very good, so brother Quan from our village thought of becoming a traveling merchant to earn a way out.”

“Can’t you plant on the land at home?”

Song Qing had underestimated his dressing and asked him.

When uncle Shan heard this, he was taken aback, as if he was surprised.

After a long while, he laughed in a self-deprecating manner.

“Where is the land?”

He shook his head and said, ”

“The fields all belong to the Imperial court, and the annual taxes are very high.” He calmly counted, ”

the huge taxes from the Imperial court, the protection of the royal family, and the expenses of supporting the state-protecting temple … Hand them all over, there’s not much left.”

The old man lowered his head.

“And that’s only if you’re lucky.” He paused.

“If we are unlucky and encounter unreasonable tax collectors, we will have to work for a year and owe the government food.”
