My life in another world is up to me

Chapter 118 The So-Called Family

"You have no idea how terrifying the family is."

"Then tell me about it." In Yuanshen's memory, the part about Su's mansion is completely a history of blood and tears of a wealthy family and a pitiful little boy. There will be nothing more, so Su Ziyi really doesn't know what Bian Qing said. What does the "terrible" look like.

"Ok?"

As soon as he lowered his eyebrows, he saw Bian Qing lowered his head, fiddling with his fingers nervously, without saying a word.This made Su Ziyi feel a little helpless, he sighed, walked forward, ignored Bian Qing's weak struggle, and pulled him outside the door, and stood together in the warm sunshine, waiting for the other party to say anything.

Perhaps it was because the sunshine in early spring gave Bian Qing a sense of security, and his complexion improved a lot. He looked at Su Ziyi, who was about to hear him tell one, two, three, four, and he felt powerless for a while, before finally compromising. His gaze shifted to the big tree in front of the yard: "Do you know that I was sold into Liu's Mansion when I was three years old, and I don't remember much of my childhood memories, but—"

"By the time I was six years old, among the 56 people who were sold into the family with me, only thirteen were still alive."

Su Ziyi choked for breath.

Bian Qing's gaze was a little cold, and his tone was indifferent, as if he was not telling his own story: "When I was seven years old, there were still ten people left; when I left Liu's house, there were still seven people left. It wasn't because I came to Luoshan Village with you, even if the incident between you and me hadn't happened, I probably wouldn't have survived a few years there."

"Because, in an aristocratic family, ordinary people are worthless."

"Ordinary people may think that Steward Xiang relies on the aristocratic family to live a good life, because they don't know that the position where Steward Xiang is standing is formed by the accumulation of so many corpses." Bian Qing's voice was very deep, and he heard Su Ziyi felt a little depressed, but he still suppressed the discomfort in his heart and listened. "The aristocratic family has a clear mind, classifies people into three or six grades, and puts a price on us ordinary people—"

"——After entering the family, the family will test your roots and intelligence for rating. Those who are rated as the first-class roots will be assigned to the guard camp to protect the safety of the family; those who are rated as the second-class will be sent to the family The underlings of each property; C and others are employed as servants at home; as for D and others—” At this point, the corners of Bian Qing’s mouth twitched into a sneering arc.

"Ding and others can no longer be called human beings—there are a lot of filthy things in aristocratic families, and these things are just suitable for them to do, such as raising medicine people, meat people and so on."

He raised his head and looked at Su Ziyi: "When I was nine years old, I was already serving Miss Liu's family. One day, a girl with a round face covered in blood broke into Miss Shu's yard. She didn't have a good piece of meat on her body, and she was everywhere. They were all traces of being bitten by wild beasts. Everyone was stunned by her appearance. The guards in the courtyard came to their senses under Miss Shu's screams, and drove the girl away with sticks, but the girl was no longer alive. It was the end of the battle, and under the pushing and shoving of the guards, she fell to the ground and couldn't get up, and was dragged out like a dead dog by the people who were chasing her from behind."

"It was only later that I found out that the reason why that girl was so miserable was because the patriarch's second son raised a first-rank Fire Cloud Beast."

"The fire cloud beast is aggressive and bloodthirsty by nature. The more blood it infects, the more ferocious it will be during the fight. Therefore, the second son directly uses human flesh and blood to raise the monster beast."

"He didn't let the Fire Cloud Beast play people to death all at once, he specially built a big fine iron cage, locked the Fire Cloud Beast inside with fine iron chains, put people in it every day when the time came, and used The blood energy of a stranger stimulates the Fire Cloud Beast, and those who are pushed in can only escape in the cage if they want to live, but how can a two-legged person play with a four-legged monster? Even if it is locked up. So it won't take long for the person to be bitten so bloody that he can only lie on the ground to vent his anger. At this time, the second son will ask someone to restrain the fire cloud beast, drag the person out, and push a new one in. .”

"If you are not flexible enough and you are bitten to death by the fire cloud beast, you are really dead. Even the corpse has nowhere to go, and is directly eaten by the fire cloud beast on the spot. But at this time, the fire cloud beast Because they are full, they will not torture and kill the people behind, but just play around, so that the remaining people can live until the next time."

"That's why these meat people hope every day that the person in front of him will die in the mouth of the fire cloud beast."

Hearing this, Su Ziyi felt cold all over his body.He has lived in the 21st century for more than 20 years and has heard all kinds of appalling things, but he has never heard of such an extremely cold-blooded practice.He couldn't help but put his eyes on Bian Qing, looking at the healthy young man standing in front of him at this time, he was sincerely grateful.

With a long hand, he directly pulled the person into his arms, patted the other person's back lightly, and comforted him: "It's all over, and now you are a cultivator, so you don't have to worry about these things anymore. "At the end, he also added: "If your cultivation base is more diligent, you may be better than those young ladies and masters before."

"So, there's nothing to be afraid of."

The warm chest and gentle comfort woke up Bian Qing, who had been fascinated by the past, and gradually warmed up his cold heart. He leaned very heavily on Su Ziyi's generous chest, and was attracted by the man's unique breath. Wrapped deeply, he greedily took a deep breath, his face softened, and he stuffed himself more and more into the opponent's arms.

"That round-faced little girl is the one who lived the longest, unfortunately..."

Bian Qing was still talking, but Su Ziyi didn't stop him. He knew that Bian Qing had been suppressed for too long, so it's better to say it now, so as not to be depressed.He didn't put his arms around Bian Qing like coaxing Su Yulang, he just wrapped his two strong arms tightly in his arms, making Bian Qing feel at ease with that somewhat oppressive touch.

"Compared with them, I'm much better." Bian Qing seemed relaxed and said, "Although Miss Shu is not easy to get along with, as long as she is obedient and doesn't frown on her, I can still live on." go down?Su Ziyi thought back on what happened to the servants in Su's mansion, and knew that what Bian Qing said was just to appease himself.

"Actually, these are just some small things inside."

"Do you know why I said that the family group is terrible?" Bian Qing raised his head and met Su Ziyi's eyes as he slightly pushed his hands away from Su Ziyi's chest.

"Why?" Su Ziyi asked following his words.

Bian Qing didn't answer him directly: "There is a family of four families in Chucheng. On the surface, everyone is still living in peace, but behind the scenes, there are a lot of strife and killings--" Bian Qing grabbed Su Ziyi's lapel hand tightly. Take it easy: "Like the guards and secret guards raised by various families, the biggest consumption is actually the competition with other families."

"The road to cultivation is difficult and bumpy. Every monk who can leave a mark is piled up with a large amount of cultivation resources. But resources are limited, especially some precious ones, so in order to obtain them, but also in order not to be killed by other families Squeezed down, they had to draw their swords against each other, which also led to an alliance between the aristocratic families and their swords facing each other."

"But it's just between aristocratic families." When Bian Qing said this, his tone was a little heavy.

"I told you before that ordinary people are nothing in the eyes of the family. In fact, it should be said that only the family is in the eyes of the family. Whether it is a government or a casual cultivator, in the eyes of the family, they are all Those who are hostile do not belong to the same circle as them." When Bian Qing said this, Su Ziyi immediately understood.

Sure enough, Bian Qing's next sentence clarified what he was thinking: "The aristocratic family has always worked together in the face of conflicts inside and outside the aristocratic family, no matter who the opponent is, to ensure that their aristocratic family's rights and interests are not violated. "

"Although the current situation is still dominated by the government. But secretly, the resources mastered by the aristocratic family should not be underestimated. Cultivation of mind, supernatural powers, magic tricks, rare materials... a large part of these things are in their hands. In the world, even if it is something that is not born in the world, it will be divided up by them in the first place."

"In this regard, the government's ability is not even as good as theirs."

"So, in comparison, there is really no one who can do nothing to get a family."

"I once heard that more than [-] years ago, there was a small family in the vicinity of Chucheng, which was not very powerful, and there were only a few Qi refining practitioners, but because of the family treasures, several families in Chucheng targeted them. In order to seize the treasures, several aristocratic families colluded and directly bloodbathed the small family, and even fooled the Hou Mansion, so that many people thought it was caused by bandits after many years."

"It wasn't until the same situation happened a few more times that the secret activities of several aristocratic families were discovered. However, because the Chucheng aristocratic family had a larger family as their backer, even if the truth was known, in the end, all but the Hou Mansion There is nothing more that can be done to stop them from doing this again."

"It's because they take the initiative to seize other people's things. If someone else touches them, even if the offended family can't handle it, the matter will be united by other families—even if there are conflicts between these families on weekdays. Heavy, at this time, they will not take advantage of this situation to add insult to injury, but will be quite united, just to maintain the inviolable image of the family."

"Because they know that, just like the government cannot leverage all the families at once, if they are not united and there is any gap between them, they will be suppressed by other forces and eventually fall apart."

"Now you know why I said that."

"Although Xiang's mansion looks friendly, once they get in touch with Su's mansion and know that you have a secret, no matter how far apart they are and there are huge conflicts between them, in the face of interests and the reputation of the family, they will Choose to unite."

"And by then, it won't matter where we go."

"Because in the entire Yuan Kingdom, there is no place that has not been contaminated by the aristocratic family." After saying these words, Bian Qing felt very heavy in his heart. He lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

After hearing so much from Bian Qing, Su Ziyi also fully realized the seriousness of the matter.Perhaps it should be said that during the past two years of dating, the friendship between Xiang Zuo and old doctor Wu and others made him gradually let go of his vigilance, which is why today's troubles were caused.It's just that things have already happened, and it's useless to regret, it's better to think about what to do next.

"It's okay, I'm here." Looking at the preoccupied Bian Qing, Su Ziyi sighed in his heart, and clasped his big hands directly on the other's calloused hands.When Bian Qing raised his eyes to look at him, he pretended to be relaxed and said: "At that time, we can just play by ear, and have you forgotten? Qixia Town is not only adjacent to the Falling Immortal Forest."

Hearing Su Ziyi's mention, Bian Qing suddenly remembered.

How could he have forgotten?

The Qingze Continent is vast and boundless, and no one has ever been able to clearly explain how big this land is. This has also led to the existence of many countries like the Yuan Kingdom on this continent, such as the Dai Kingdom in the southwest of the Yuan Kingdom, and the Qing Dynasty in the north. Countries... In these countries, the disputes of local powers are another scene, and it is completely impossible for the aristocratic families in the Yuan Dynasty to intervene.

Although there are considerable restrictions on entering from one country to another, you can get there with some means!

Bian Qing remembered that on the day when he sent the elixir to Xiangfu, he had reminded him to the steward that although Qixia Town was not close to the neighboring country, but because it was backed by the Meteor Immortal Forest, there was a long and narrow mountain range between Yuan Kingdom and Between the countries of Dai in the southwest.The area of ​​this long and narrow mountain range is neither big nor small, but it has been regarded as a disputed territory by the two countries because of the scarcity of monster and elixir resources in it, and it has been shelved there for hundreds of years as a buffer.

And if they went to Qixia Town, in case something bad happened, they could indeed use that place to escape into the territory of Dai Country!

The more Bian Qing thought about it, the more excited he became, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt. He raised his head and looked at Su Ziyi with bright eyes, but he didn't know that in the eyes of the other party, he was exactly the same as Su Yulang when he was acting coquettishly.In order to avoid laughing out loud, Su Ziyi pretended to cough, and instead of looking at Bian Qing, he said in a casual manner, "When we go to Qixia Town, let's inquire about the procedures for going to Dai Country first, and if we find anything wrong Yes, then we will evacuate early."

"And if the matter is urgent, let's consider the road to the Falling Immortal Forest." From Su Ziyi's point of view, no matter whether the aristocratic family comes or not, he will go to the Falling Immortal Forest to find out. After all, he left Luoshan Village In the old forest here, if he wants to find more cultivation resources, he can only rely on the Meteor Immortal Forest.

It's just that it's not too late to tell Bian Qing about this kind of thing in Qixia Town.

"Yeah!" Bian Qing nodded. He was very excited at this time, and he saw hope in his eyes. He hurriedly said: "Then let's pack up our things later and set off tomorrow morning!"
