On the flat road, Li Shanren drove the carriage forward under the leadership of Torette. After walking for more than an hour, he saw a small village a mile away with a few wisps of smoke.

In order to avoid being misunderstood by the villagers, Li Shanren drove the carriage not far outside the village, then jumped out of the carriage, leaving Alice in the carriage, and shook the soul-summoning bell on his waist to summon three stray wolves. Leaving behind his protection, he walked towards the village alone.

There were not many people in the village. Maybe the adults had gone to farm in the fields, leaving only a few children. They were chasing happily along the village paths. When they saw Li Shanren, who was wearing a strange dress, walking into the village, they hid one after another. At home, look out through the cracks in the door or through the windows. Some brave enough to stand on the roadside and watch openly.

"Hi, is there a blacksmith in your village? I'd like to ask him for a favor."

With a gentle smile, Li Shanren asked an older child standing by the earth wall a few steps away.

"Are you looking for Uncle Geert? Come with me. His home is at the end of the village."

The child replied, his round face flushed, as if he was excited that this outsider who didn't look like a rural person was talking to him.

There are very few outsiders coming to their village.

"sorry to bother you."

Li Shanren smiled kindly at him and followed the child leisurely.

The other children who had originally hid in the house or simply stood on the roadside and watched, followed Li Shanren one by one, chatting, pointing at Li Shanren from time to time, and occasionally arguing with each other. For a moment, I really didn't know what they were talking about with "Li Shanren" as the core topic.

Li Shanren didn't hear what the children behind him were saying. He speeded up his pace with some effort, trying to keep up with the child leading the way. The other child was running too fast. At that energetic age, Li Shanren If Shanren doesn’t take a step forward, he may not be able to keep up.

After following each other for a few minutes, they arrived at the end of the village, next to a built stone house with a fence surrounding the outside. Black smoke was rising from the chimney above the house, and the sound of hammering could be heard in the yard.

"Uncle Gert!" the round-faced boy leading the way shouted excitedly, pushing open the small wooden door in the middle of the fence with familiarity, "There is an outsider looking for you!"

Li Shanren followed him in, and then he saw a middle-aged man covered in tendons next to a red-hot iron stove. He was carrying a hammer and striking a farm tool on an anvil. It's almost in shape, and looks like a hatchet.

"Who is the outsider?"

"it's him!"

The round-faced boy pointed at Li Shanren, and the middle-aged blacksmith looked up. Seeing Li Shanren's unusual attire, his face suddenly became a little frightened.

"You...are you an extraordinary person?" The middle-aged blacksmith put down his work and hurriedly came to Li Shanren, "I'm sorry, I just make some ordinary farm tools, so I may not be able to help you build equipment. Even repairing it is difficult, so if you need it, you should go to a specialized weapon craftsman."

"No, no, you misunderstood. I'm not here to make a weapon for you. I want to borrow an ax from you, preferably a bigger one that can break iron locks. Do you have one here?"

Li Shanren asked as gently as possible. The world is still in an era of low productivity. Extraordinary people who possess extraordinary power have class barriers that are difficult for ordinary people to break. No matter where they go, extraordinary people are deeply respected by ordinary people, because They know that once these people with power become angry, they can easily take away their lives.

In terms of life, civilians and extraordinary people are not equal. This inequality brings humility that is almost buried in the soil.

After becoming a transcendent, Li Shanren felt this indelible humility from many civilians in just a few days. No matter how softly he spoke, it would not make those civilians change in any way. Shanren, a modern man who came from a higher level of social civilization, also felt helpless.

Li Shanren feels that people may have different differences in status, wealth, ability, and thought, but they are always equal in terms of personality. No one is more noble than anyone else, and no one is more noble than anyone else. Being able to humiliate another person's character at will, unless that person is willing to degenerate.

"Axe?" The middle-aged blacksmith was stunned for a moment, and then he responded, "Oh, there are some. Please wait for me for a moment. I'll go get them right away."

As soon as he finished speaking, the blacksmith turned back to his stone house and soon took out a sharpened and polished logging ax.

"Do you want this?" The blacksmith held out the logging ax with both hands.

Li Shanren looked at the heavy ax and estimated that it would be difficult to pick it up with his own arm strength, let alone break the lock. He thought about it and simply said to the blacksmith: "Take it with me." Come on over and do me a favor.”

"Hey, okay."

The blacksmith did not dare to disobey the extraordinary man, so he had no choice but to follow behind him.

The children crowded outside the fence immediately dispersed when they saw the outsider walking out. After Li Shanren walked away, they followed him secretly.

Li Shanren took the blacksmith outside the village and approached the carriage. He saw Alice sitting obediently on the carriage from a distance.

Perhaps because the wild wolves were guarding the carriage, Alice did not dare to get out of the car. She might be a little afraid of the three ferocious wild wolves.

Li Shanren, who noticed this scene, smiled and waved his hand to let the wild wolves dissipate and return to the Soul Summoning Bell.

Alice in the carriage became even more frightened when she saw this. She thought that an invisible enemy appeared and killed the wild wolves silently. She looked around in a panic, and it wasn't until she saw Li Shanren walking back from a distance that she revealed a look of relief. expression.

The blacksmith who followed looked at the iron cages holding children behind the carriage, and clenched his ax tightly in fear.

He looked at the extraordinary person walking in front and hesitated for a moment whether he should muster up the courage to swing the ax and strike the head of the evil extraordinary person.

When the group of children walking at the end saw this scene, they were even more frightened and fled back to the village. Only the brave ones followed at a distance.

In the end, the blacksmith still didn't have the courage to take action to eliminate harm for the people. He knew the gap between himself and the extraordinary people. This move would most likely end his life, so things like this should be left to other extraordinary people with a sense of justice to resolve. , has nothing to do with him being an ordinary rural blacksmith.

"Come here, come here, help me break the locks of the cages here and let them out." Li Shanren pointed to the two rows of iron cages behind the carriage and said.

"Ah? Did you ask me to do this?" The simple blacksmith was stunned.

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Li Shanren gave the blacksmith a strange look. He didn't know that he had just walked through the gate of hell.

If the blacksmith made up his mind and struck with an axe, Li Shanren, who was unprepared, might have his head cracked and sadly go to the junction.

After all, although he can release powerful magic, his physical strength is no different from that of ordinary people, and may even be a little weaker than the civilians of this world. He will die from injuries that can kill him in one blow, and he doesn't even have the chance to drink dew drops. No.
