Then, Xiang Kuangren also landed like a cannonball. The ground shook again. As far as the eye could see, other than Grandma Shi's house, there were no other buildings that were still intact.
Wen Xingtian saw Zuo Xiaoduo, who had recovered his appearance, and hurried over. "What happened?"
"I came to see Grandma Shi … She was ambushed by these people …"
Zuo Xiaoduo told him about the whole thing, and then told him about his guesses and conjectures.
Wen Xingtian's face immediately became serious.
"They're not dead, right?"
"They're not dead! But they're all crippled. They're all Nascent Soul cultivators. Just in case, I crippled their cultivation. "
Zuo Xiaoduo grinned.
"Good job."
Wen Xingtian praised. He liked it the most. It was easier to interrogate when there was no hope.
"I'll take them all back."
"Okay, but here … The ordinary people's houses are badly damaged …"
Zuo Xiaoduo said worriedly, "What should we do?"
Wen Xingtian sighed and said, "The hateful Umno Alliance spies sneaked into the continent of Astral Souls and destroyed so many ordinary people's houses … They're really abominable!"
"But don't worry, I'll inform Star Shield to do the statistics, and then the Governor's Office will come and settle them down."
"Okay."
Zuo Xiaoduo suggested, "But now, Grandma Shi is still here, so it's a little inappropriate … Everyone's houses have collapsed … Only Grandma Shi's house didn't …"
Xiang Kuangren said gruffly, "What are you trying to say?"
Zuo Xiaoduo was confused. "What can I say?"
Xiang Kuangren said angrily, "What are you trying to do? Just say it."
Zuo Xiaoduo said, "Actually, I was thinking … My villa is so spacious, and it's just me and Li Chenglong … It's too empty … Why don't we …"
Wen Xingtian frowned and said, "I'm afraid Mrs. Shi won't leave this house. Your intentions …"
Zuo Xiaoduo knew what he meant and said, "My courtyard … It's a few acres of empty space …"
Wen Xingtian said, "You mean …"
Zuo Xiaoduo sighed, speechless. I wanted you to say it out loud, but you didn't. You were beating around the bush to make me say it …
I've never seen such an irresponsible teacher!
"What I mean is … We can move this small courtyard … Move over there? It seems quite difficult, right? "Zuo Xiaoduo said cutely.
"It's not hard, not hard at all."
Ye Changqing also came and tried to persuade Madam Shi to move. He had already done so countless times.
Xingtian. and Madam.
Would it's possible … would it's successful?
To everyone's surprise, it didn't take much persuasion this time. Grandma Shi agreed very quickly.
Even Ye Changqing was overjoyed by the result!
Although it was a big surprise, the sense of relief in his heart was real and not fake at all!
"I live here because the Shi family's ancestral home is here. I just don't want to move. "
"If Old Shi was still alive, he would've been disappointed in his neighborhood and ancestral home. He wouldn't have let me suffer like this."
"He's dead. I've watched over him for so long. It's enough."
"Zuo Xiaoduo comes every day. At first, I chased him away, but he still doesn't care about his reputation. He comes again and again, no matter how much I scold and beat him … Until now."
"Now, I'm still a distance away from the school. If the children want to see me, this distance is enough to cause them to lose their lives. Of course, I have to leave!"
"No matter what, I can't be the bait for them to kill the children."
Grandma Shi said lightly, "The children are young and have many advantages. At the very least, they don't care about their reputation so much. They're not like some big shots who don't even come to the door after being scolded by me. In this world, the older you get, the more you care about your reputation. But you don't know that your reputation is long gone …"
Ye Changqing, Xiang Kuangren, Wen Xingtian, and the others were scolded until their faces turned green. They were embarrassed and kept quiet.
Grandma Shi didn't say anything too outrageous. She just snorted and stopped talking.
Ye Changqing hurriedly arranged for the moving.
But in the process of moving, there was an accident.
Countless villagers walked out from the ruins. Seeing that everyone was moving, they suddenly asked in unison, "Can we not move?"
Zuo Xiaoduo said impatiently, "Why? Didn't you all dislike Grandma Shi for a long time? If she moves away, won't you all be satisfied? "
"If … if she moves away … our compensation … these houses … the government's compensation … I'm afraid … it'll be … a long time … before the day comes."
An old man stammered. He was very ashamed and didn't dare to look at the crowd. He said in a low voice.
"Oh?"
Zuo Xiaoduo said with interest, "Oh, I don't quite understand. What you mean is … if Grandma Shi still lives here, you can benefit from it. Because the hero's family lives here, you can get compensation as soon as possible. Is that what you mean?! Did I get it wrong? "
All the villagers lowered their heads in shame. Although they didn't answer, it was no doubt a tacit agreement.
This was also the reality!
"In other words, you all know, you all know … what kind of person Grandma Shi's husband is."
Zuo Xiaoduo suddenly wanted to kill someone, "You all know … that this is the hero's family that has been receiving long-term compensation from the government?"
Still, no one said a word.
"I see. Then I'll ask one more question. What do you all do on a daily basis? Don't ask about her well-being or greet her when she's met. Just say, is there anyone in your family who hasn't said anything bad about Principal Shi?! "Zuo Xiaoduo's voice was hoarse as he asked sternly.
Still, no one said a word. It was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.
"What are you talking about? Start moving."
Ye Changqing waved his hand coldly.
"Please don't move …"
Several old men suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Grandma Shi, "Please don't move …"
"Stay here and continue to be persecuted by you?"
Zuo Xiaoduo snorted coldly, his hands and feet moving even faster.
Ye Changqing ignored those people and looked around the small courtyard. He said, "Don't move."
"First, use your True Essence to solidify the foundation. Then, I'll lock the upper and lower space and three feet underground. Let's move the whole house there."
"Okay, understood."
Under the stunned gaze of Zuo Xiaoduo, Ye Changqing and the other two people shouted and moved Grandma Shi's small courtyard in a few moves.
Ye Changqing sat on the roof and sealed the space with his vigorous True Qi. Nothing in the small courtyard, not even a grain of soil, would fall.
Xiang Kuangren went downstairs and held the courtyard with one hand. He rose into the air and flew out.
In short, they had used such a shocking method … to move the entire courtyard away!
Zuo Xiaoduo, who thought that a lot of people would be needed to move the house and was eager to help, was stunned on the spot.
He originally wanted to call people to help him.
In his plan, there were people who would move furniture, books, and …
Now, it seemed that he was a country bumpkin.
Just like that, Principal Ye used his hand to swipe across the square and carried the foundation away …
The extra Wen Xingtian brought the five people who had been beaten up by Zuo Xiaoduo and disappeared in an instant.
These five people were all treasures and had to be taken care of carefully. Moving the small courtyard didn't require three experts to work together. That would be too much of a fuss!
Seeing that everyone had left, Grandma Shi turned around. With a bang, her finger hit Zuo Xiaoduo's head solidly.
"Ah?" Zuo Xiaoduo covered his head and was stunned. His eyes were full of confusion.
"Why didn't you ask for help?"
Grandma Shi looked at him sternly. "Obviously, once you shouted, help would have come. Why are you, a Xiao in the Embryonic Breathing realm, thinking so much? Yes, you can win, but your true strength of being able to fight above your level will be exposed after today, won't it?! "
Zuo Xiaoduo touched his head. "Hehe … I'm not afraid …"
"Afraid that I'll be upset?"
Grandma Shi hit his head again with her finger and said, "You little monkey, you are too scheming and think too much."
Zuo Xiaoduo cried out in pain again.
Grandma Shi's finger was like a steel bar, hitting his scalp until it made a loud sound. The pain seemed to be magnified, making him extremely uncomfortable.
However, after two knocks, Zuo Xiaoduo was in so much pain that tears almost flowed out. He hurriedly begged for mercy, "Grandma Shi, I won't dare to do it again."
Zuo Xiaoduo was a professional when it came to admitting his fear.
His teary, guilty, and sincere expression of admitting his mistake could definitely make any strict teacher or parent feel his sincerity!
Grandma Shi was indeed fooled. She snorted softly, "It's good that you know your mistake."
Immediately, she strode forward, her speed neither fast nor slow.
Zuo Xiaoduo hurriedly followed behind like a lackey. Along the way, he asked about her well-being and was very attentive.
Behind him, only the villagers with complicated and uncomfortable expressions were left.
They looked on helplessly as Grandma Shi left.
All that was left behind was a huge square pit!
Whether it was Ye Changqing, Grandma Shi, or the others, during the entire process of moving, they didn't look at these people again.
The affection of the ancestral home had long been completely wiped out by the persecution of conscience. Not a single drop was left.
After this time, it was completely severed, and there was no more affection.
Zuo Xiaoduo and Grandma Shi chatted and laughed as they left, not looking back.
That kind of silent indifference immediately made these people feel cold all over, and they trembled with fear.
Basically, everyone who lived in this area knew that this old lady was an expert, a super expert. However, everyone also knew that this super expert would never make a move.
The main reason why she wouldn't make a move was because this was the ancestral home of Headmaster Shi!
Everyone in the village was a neighbor.
Everyone also knew that this old lady's husband was wrongly accused!
However, this didn't stop them from deliberately saying some things to provoke the other party, and deliberately doing some things to disgust the other party.
The pleasure of humiliating a strong person in the clouds; the feeling of 'Aren't you awesome? How did you die? Aren't you the high and mighty headmaster? Aren't you someone that no one dares to provoke? Why are you like this now? Back then, when I begged you to open the back door for my child to enter the school, you said that my child didn't have the qualifications, and you weren't willing. What about now? Aren't you still dead?! '
When alive, you were above us. When dead, your reputation is so bad, and you still want us to continue worshiping you? Who do you think you are?
Leaving behind a widow, do you still want us to treat her like a grandma?
What's wrong with bullying her?
This kind of dark and twisted mentality, they didn't know where it came from, but it was real …
Now that the other party was about to leave, they just remembered that if this old lady wasn't here, the losses caused by this incident, the compensation, the subsidies … wouldn't know when they would come …
If the old lady was still here, these compensations, these new houses, they would all be in place very quickly!
Perhaps it would be tomorrow, but in short, it would be very soon!
This was without a doubt!
But now, the old lady was gone, and she took the ancestral home with her, never to return.
This meant that those compensations and subsidies … would still come, but it wouldn't be very fast, and it wouldn't be sufficient.
This was also without a doubt.
Because they no longer had the right to get people to come immediately!
The hero had gone far away, and would no longer protect them!
When the hero's widow left, she didn't even turn back to look.
It was said that when killing enemies on the battlefield, one had to turn back to take a look after killing the enemy. After the battle, one had to collect the corpse.
But now, the old lady of the Shi family didn't even look at them.
In fact … they were worse than corpses.
In the sunset.
Everyone watched in a daze as the old and the young stepped on the setting sun and slowly left. Boundless regret was like the boundless darkness that was about to come …
Devouring everything.
I don't know who said that a country needs heroes, because when everyone respects heroes, there will be more people who want to be heroes.
However, when the people of this country didn't respect heroes, and even trampled on and suspected the former heroes, heroes would no longer exist.
If the heroic souls had spirits, the human world that they had once risked their lives to protect would become like this. Then, the heroic souls would also be far away.
When a hero was bitterly disappointed, no one would want to be a hero. Therefore, there would be no more heroes in this world.
Lu Xun had once said, "This world needs war." After too long of peace, there would always be many complicated things that replaced the respect and reverence in people's hearts. Therefore, the consequences of too long of peace were corruption and moral decay.
