C2194 Heart of Freedom
Article 2194 - Freedom Heart
Qin Xiao did not know how long the history of Free City was, but he knew for a long time.
Perhaps the people who had lived in the Free City before might not be the old people of the Free City, but they had lived there for a very, very long time.
He had lived in a place for more than ten thousand years. That place had long been deeply rooted, and had long regarded this place as their home.
To be able to live in a place that exceeded the Ten Thousand Universe Era... It was also something that was very hard to imagine.
If Qin Xiao could live in a place that exceeded the Myriad Universe Era, Qin Xiao felt that there was no way he could imagine it.
Therefore, from Elder Pengtou's words, one could tell that he had deep feelings for the Free City.
It was both heartache and helplessness. What kind of complicated feeling was this?
Furthermore, this was a Human Clan, which gave Qin Xiao some hidden feelings.
"Senior, drinking alone makes you sad and sad." Qin Xiao said.
The old man raised his head and glanced at Qin Xiao and Young Master Yu, but he immediately withdrew his gaze. He remained unmoved and continued drinking his wine, completely ignoring Qin Xiao's words.
Seeing that the old man was unwilling to talk to him, Qin Xiao said, "Senior, how about I treat you to a drink? We brothers are also a little bored. Can we sit down and have a few drinks together?"
The old man was silent for a while before he coldly said, "Whatever."
Perhaps because they were both from the Human Clan, the old man did not reject them too much.
Or perhaps, he was bored drinking alone. Since someone was willing to treat him to a drink, he didn't mind.
Or perhaps, something like this had happened in the Free City, and his heart was already dead. A dying heart did not matter to anything anymore.
Qin Xiao and Young Master Yu sat down, took out some wine, and handed it to Elder Pengtou. Elder Pengtou didn't hold back at all, and accepted all the wine.
After drinking for a while, Elder Pengtou finally spoke. "You two just came to Free City, right? You still dare to come to Free City at this time? Are you too bold? Or do you have some other purpose? "
These words seemed to be intentional or not, but Elder Pengtou's eyes became somewhat profound, emitting a strange dark light.
Obviously, Elder Pengtou was suspicious of Qin Xiao's motive, or to put it bluntly, he was suspecting that Qin Xiao and Elder Pengtou were the troublemakers of this matter.
Qin Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, do you think the two of us look like bad people?"
"Bad people don't write on their faces." Elder Pengtou said coldly.
"We are just a Second Step Heavenly Sovereign Stage and a Third Step Heavenly Sovereign Stage, do we really have such capability and means? Senior, you really think highly of us." Qin Xiao said again.
"The weakness of the minions is understandable." Elder Pengtou also replied.
“”
This made Qin Xiao speechless. Young Master Yu curled his lips and said: " Hey, old man, we are treating you to a drink. Are you doubting us like this? It seems like I have treated you to a drink for free. Give it to me and stop drinking."
Duke Yu wasn't polite at all. After he finished speaking, he actually snatched the wine from Elder Pengtou's hand.
He said with some displeasure," Initially, we were quite sympathetic towards you. But now, it seems like even if you pour the wine out, you won't be able to drink it. You are too heartless. "
"We are full of righteousness, how can we be that kind of evil bad person?"
The old man with the Peng head glared at Master Yu and said, "Young people nowadays are so petty. Can't they be suspicious?"
"He drank half of the wine and took it away. Does he still have any morals?"
"Forget it, forget it. I don't care about your wine. Wine. I still have some."
As he spoke, the old man with the tarpaulin poured a jug of wine, but he awkwardly realized that there was no more wine.
The Free City had been in a highly tense and oppressive atmosphere for the past few thousand years. All the shops were closed, and they didn't even have the chance to buy wine.
Therefore, Elder Pengtou had used up all his stock. Now, he was so embarrassed that he didn't even have the chance to drink.
Qin Xiao shook his head and smiled when he saw this. He handed the wine over and said, "I'm sorry, senior. Just now, my brother was playing with you. You are magnanimous, so please forgive me."
Elder Pengtou looked at Qin Xiao and nodded with satisfaction. "This little guy is still sensible. That old man will not be polite."
"He doesn't look like some people who are narrow-minded."
After hearing what he said, young Master Yu wanted to snatch the wine from Elder Pengtou's hands, but he was protected by Elder Pengtou.
These two men were like a pair of little enemies, having a great time fighting each other.
However, how should he put it? This fight had actually shortened the distance between them.
Elder Pengtou's words of doubt were actually just words. He wasn't really doubting Qin Xiao and Young Master Yu.
Perhaps he had some doubts at the beginning. But now, he believed it.
"Senior, I'm more curious about what the Free City used to be like. Can you tell us about it?" Qin Xiao suddenly asked.
The previous Free City -
Speaking of this, Elder Pengtou's eyes became incomparably deep, as if he had fallen into a memory from a long time ago.
However, that memory was happy, sweet, and deeply engraved in his heart for the rest of his life.
After a long while, Elder Pengtou finally spoke slowly.
"Over ten thousand Universe Era came to Free City after hearing the news. At that time, Free City was still the first city in charge, so everything was in order."
"Free City has its rules, its purpose, and its faith. Free City is just like how it is. It is a truly free city. Anyone can come to Free City and obtain true freedom."
"All the races can live well here. We can get along harmoniously with each other. We can be as close as a family and shorten the distance between the races."
"Even the natural enemies of the two races will abandon the hatred between these races when they come to Free City. They will live freely in the Freedom City and live happily."
"This is the Land of Freedom. There are no battles, no killings, and no schemes. Everyone is very harmonious, as if they are in harmony. A big family. "
"Furthermore, everyone follows the rules and adheres to the beliefs of the Free City."
"Everyone respects Free City Lord, and Free City Lord doesn't allow Abominable people to enter the Free City."
"Although the Free City is a free city, it is a place that can accommodate all kinds of races in the world. But the City of Freedom does not accept Abominable people. "
"That's why some wanted criminals, wicked people, and evil people are rejected."
"It's precisely because of Free City Lord's management that the Free City has become peaceful."
Elder Pengtou had told him many things about the Free City. Under the control of the first Free City Lord, the Free City was indeed a pure land, a peach garden, and a magical city. It was simply a legend.
However, before the Universe Era, the first Free City Lord had left for some unknown reason. From then on, his whereabouts were unknown, and he had completely cut off all contact with the Free Legion. He was confirmed to be dead.
No one knew what was going on, and no one knew how Free City Lord died. Was he really dead?
After that, the battle for the new city lord started.
Since the start of the Universe Era, the number of city lords in the Free City alone had already exceeded a hundred. Basically, it would take tens of millions of eras for the new city lord to be replaced.
The last city lord was sentenced to death ten thousand years ago.
Although most of the remaining hundred or so Free City Lord were imitating the first Free City Lord, they were still far from being as good as the first Free City Lord.
And among them, a few of Free City Lord who did not do much had emerged, which caused the atmosphere in Free City to become more and more bad. The rules were also slowly eroding, and the faith was slowly collapsing.
Gradually, there were some wanted criminals, and some unpardonable people who entered the free city. When these people entered the Free City, even if they abided by the rules of Free City, the evil in their bones would definitely pollute the Free City. There would also be some evil things that would be discovered.
Slowly, they would accumulate more.
The change in quantity would naturally cause a qualitative change.
Therefore, the atmosphere in Free City was slowly brought down by this.
Currently, there were many wanted criminals and unpardonable criminals hiding in the Free City. They were all people who had committed heinous crimes and deserved to die.
However, no one in the Free City was in charge of this matter anymore. Therefore, they naturally listened to the orders and allowed it to grow.
Gradually, an evil force was formed. It was hidden in the Freedom City, and naturally, it became a powerful hidden danger.
And now, the crisis of slaughtering the entire city had erupted. Those strange incidents had happened one after another. This was all because the Free City lacked a wise and wise city supervisor. This had caused Elder Pengtou to feel a lot of heartache.
"I am watching Free City slowly fall, step by step, towards decline. Now, I might even have to witness the extinction of Free City with my own eyes."
"I hate it, I hate myself for being powerless. I can't change anything, and I can't do anything."
"The current Free City no longer has that Freedom Heart. Thinking back to the Free City in the past, that was what was called unity and harmony."
"Everyone is united and trust each other. They have a common belief and a very strong cohesion. Therefore, we can call for help. As long as there is anything, we can all work together. There's nothing we can't solve. "
"The current Free City is so weak that it's going to be slaughtered by the demonic and devil races. How sad is that?"
"I have lived in the Free City my entire life. I can't bear to watch the Freedom Heart slowly disappear. I can't watch the Free City being destroyed and disappear from this world."
"I can't bear to see it. I really can't bear to see it. But what can I do?"
"Even if I don't want to live anymore, it won't help."
Elder Pengtou felt so helpless, so painful, and so unwilling.
But what could he do?
He couldn't do anything. That was why he was drinking wine here to relieve the worries in his heart.
What a good Freedom Heart!
After Qin Xiao heard Old Man Peng's words, he actually had a lot of favorable impression towards Free City. It was indeed worthy of being called a Freedom Heart.
In the past, the Free City was indeed a free land of the Holy Land.
However, the current Free City was indeed filled with foul smoke and miasma. It had lost its color and sounded very heartbreaking.
Qin Xiao, an outsider, was also heartbroken when he heard this.
"Then, can't we unite everyone in the Free City? What if we work together and face danger together?"0
"I believe that as long as everyone in the Free City works together, there won't be any problems that can't be solved, right?"
"The Free City is no longer the same as before, but when all of its power is combined, it's still shockingly powerful."
