Chapter 67: Family love, chaos in the city
Li Mo paid attention to the development of the situation outside and did not go back until evening.
When he returned home, he found that his parents, younger brothers and sisters were waiting for him to come back.
As soon as Mi Xiaohua saw him, she immediately rushed towards him crying.
"Brother, my parents said you were going to the Red Flame Mountains. Are you leaving us again? Xiaohua doesn't want her to leave."
When Li Mo saw this, he hugged Mi Xiaohua directly and said:
"Good boy, don't cry, and my brother won't leave."
After coaxing Mi Xiaohua, he said to his parents:
"Father, mother, do you all know?"
Zhou's mother's eyes were a little red and swollen, and there were obvious signs of crying. She said, "It's basically spread throughout the county now, how could we not know about it.
Man Sheng, why don't you run away, don't worry about me and your father, just bring your brother and sister with you."
Mi's father also took a deep breath and said, "Your mother is right, we have been like this for the rest of our lives. You are different. You are now a warrior at the third level of the Shedding Realm, and you can live well wherever you go.<
/p>
We can rest assured that you are bringing your brother and sister with you. We believe you can bring them a good life."
Li Mo has not told anyone about his promotion to the Bone Forging Realm for the time being. His breakthrough was too fast and could easily arouse others' suspicion.
You must know that Li Zhenfeng has not yet gathered his inner strength.
Hearing this, Mi Mancang quickly said from the side: "Brother, just take your sister and leave. I'll stay and take care of my parents."
After hearing this, Mi's father immediately reprimanded: "What nonsense are you talking about? You go with your brother, we don't need you to take care of us."
Li Mo was a little touched when he saw this. As an orphan in his previous life, he had never felt this kind of family affection.
He suppressed the fluctuations deep in his heart and pretended to be relaxed and said: "Dad, mother, what are you talking about?
Although the Li family trains us to become warriors, it is indeed to fill the quota of miners every ten years.
But, as you know, they will choose those who are older and have no potential first.
I am only 20 years old this year, and I am already a warrior at the third level of the Shedding Realm. It is not my turn this time."
The age for recruiting miners in the Chiyan Mountains ranges from 18 to 50 years old.
According to the usual practice, the Li family will let the slave warriors they have trained to serve until they are thirty years old. If they have not been promoted to the bone forging realm by the age of thirty, they will be allowed to fill the quota of miners in the Chiyan Mountains.
If they can reach the bone forging realm before the age of thirty, it will be delayed for another ten years, and they will not be allowed to fill the miner quota until they are forty.
Mi's father shook his head and said: "Man Sheng, you don't need to comfort us, your mother and I are not stupid, this time is different from the past.
After several battles in the Li family, there were already a lot fewer warriors in the clan.
This time the amount of miner labor to be levied has doubled.
The Li family will produce too many warriors this time, and you will definitely be included in the list of miners."
Li Mo shook his head and said: "Father, mother, your worries are unnecessary. The Li family has put pressure on all the forces and families with warriors in Nancheng District, asking them to hand over people this time.
The number of warriors that can be recruited this time will definitely be quite large, and the number of warriors that the Li family will produce will not be too many."
When Zhou's mother heard this, she immediately said with hope: "Man Sheng, are you telling the truth? You didn't lie to us."
Li Mo smiled and said: "How could I lie to you? Everything I say is true. You will know it in two days. By the way, where are your grandparents? You didn't let them know."
Mi's father suddenly looked sad when he heard this: "Your grandparents already knew about it. In the afternoon, someone walked through the streets and loudly announced the news. There was no way it could be hidden."
"Do grandparents know about it? How are they now?" Li Mo's expression changed after hearing this.
Mi's father said sadly: "When the two elders heard about the recruitment of miners' labor, they said they were not feeling well and went to rest in the house. We have asked the doctor to see it, but the doctor said it was not optimistic.
They have a heartache, and you know it. The family was in difficulty at first, and your uncle went to the Chiyan Mountains for the settlement money, and there has been no news since then.
So every time the Chiyan Mountains wanted to recruit miners, the two elders would feel depressed.
In the past, their bodies were relatively strong and able to hold on.
But now my body has already collapsed, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to survive this time.”
Li Mo fell silent after hearing this. The Chiyan Mountain Range recruits miners also for ordinary people. Ordinary people are responsible for mining metal ores on the edge of the mountain range.
However, the temperature at the edge of the mountain range is not low. Ordinary people mining there will also be exposed to fire poison, and their bodies will eventually collapse if accumulated over time.
Since bringing his family to the county town, Li Mo has asked doctors to examine the bodies of the two elders.
It's just that the two elders' bodies were too overdrawn before and they couldn't make up for it. The doctor said at that time that the two elders didn't have many years to live, so in the end they could only prescribe some warm medicine. They would take care of themselves and take care of themselves, which would also allow them to live a more comfortable life for a few more days.
.
The two old men fell down this time, and I'm afraid the situation is really in danger.
Zhou's mother said with tears: "Man Sheng, this is fate. Your grandparents said that these days are the most comfortable they have ever lived in their lives. They are content.
They told us that you are different from us, and the future of our family depends on you, so we must protect you no matter what.
So if it comes to a last resort, you can leave us alone and take your brother and sister out of Fenglin County."
Li Mo took a deep breath and said: "Mom and dad, don't worry, I promise you, that day won't happen.
I’ll go see my grandparents first.”
......
The next day, Fenglin County suddenly became chaotic due to the actions of many families and forces.
In an alley.
"Shi Fei, suddenly came to settle in Fenglin County five years ago. His identity was unknown before. Please come with us."
"I have settled in Fenglin County for five years, and after coming to the county, I have applied for a new identity certificate at the county government office, and the Li family has charged me a lot of money.
In the past five years, I have been keeping my peace and my neighbors can prove that I have never done anything extraordinary. Why do you arrest me?"
"Just the fact that you were unknown five years ago is enough. If you follow us honestly, you can avoid a lot of physical pain."
"Haha! Okay, okay, it seems you are determined and want me to fill your miner quota?"
"Delusion."
The sounds of a fight were heard.
After a while, several warriors dragged a big man with a look of despair on his face and walked out of the alley.
In a small courtyard of an ordinary residential house.
"Fang Luo, what happened to you happened. Someone reported that you were responsible for the previous murder in No. 32 Courtyard."
"You fart, I was at home all day that day, and my family can all testify."
"Yes, our man has never been out that day."
"My son did not kill anyone, you are slandering me."
"Hmph! Shut up, everyone. You are all a family, and what you say is not worthy of trust. You can't even think of denying this matter. Let me tell you, there are not just one or two people who reported you."
"You, the Xu family, are slandering me. I have never done this at all."
"If you say you haven't done it, you haven't done it. Who can believe it?"
"What do you want? Why are you slandering me?"
"Haha! Only our Xu family knows about this matter at the moment. You can ask our Xu family to keep it a secret for you, but you have to take the initiative to take on a mining quota for our Xu family.
At that time, not only will you receive the settling-in allowance from the Li family, but our Xu family will also give you an additional five hundred taels of silver. How about that?"
"Haha! Haha! So that's it. Your Xu family doesn't want to send anyone out, so it's just a good idea to distract us individual warriors."
"Then how do you choose? I advise you to think clearly, not only for yourself, but also for your family."
"I...go..."
After a while, a man gritted his teeth and walked out of the residence, following the Xu family.
......
Such incidents are happening simultaneously in various places in Fenglin County.
