Xu Kuang took the bowl obediently and started to drink. He was indeed hungry and drank very vigorously.
At this time, Wayne slowly spoke and said to Xu Kuang:
"More than ten years ago, there was a big war between the kingdom and the Principality of Xi'en. Your father, me, Victor and others joined the army together. At that time, there was no recruitment law and there were not that many soldiers, so the war was more difficult.
The three of us traveled together, through life and death, and saved each other's lives countless times. ".
When Xu Kuang heard this, he slowly put down the bowl.
Wayne quickly closed his mouth when he saw Xu Kuang put down the bowl.
Xu Kuang said to Wayne calmly:
"Uncle, please continue talking.".
Wayne continued:
"Later, with our military exploits, we received some rewards and a larger fiefdom, and finally returned to our hometown together.
The three of us have enlarged our fiefdoms, so others are naturally jealous of us. However, at that time, the three of us were in the same spirit, and we were not afraid of anyone secretly causing trouble, so we were living well.
But this good life did not last long. Victor discovered that almost no crops grew in his expanded fiefdom. He eagerly found us and wanted us to help him. We paid and helped him grow crops on the barren land. He has purchased some properties, and his properties are well managed, just like you are now. ".
When Xu Kuang heard this, he continued what Wayne said:
"But there was only his private property in his territory, and the land output was seriously insufficient, so he couldn't retain people. It didn't take long for his territory to gradually decline, right?"
Wayne didn't seem surprised that Xu Kuang saw through the truth at a glance, and just said to Xu Kuang:
"Yes, he is not as smart as you, nor is he an alchemist priest. He has no source of wealth, and his thoughts gradually began to change."
Wayne turned his head and continued to tell about Victor:
"He gradually became greedy, violent, and exploited the people in his territory, so a civil uprising soon broke out in his territory.
At that time, we only wanted to help Victor suppress the situation, but we never thought of helping Victor find a way out. Just like this, over time, Victor changed.
He began to rob passing merchants, began to be jealous of us, began to do mischief in our territory, and continued to ask for things from us.
I was still able to hold my nerve and didn't want him to suck too much blood, but as you know your father, he was too soft-hearted. Soon, he was dragged down by Victor and fell into ruin. More than a year ago, your father was suddenly killed. I There was a vague answer in my heart. ".
Wayne looked at Xu Kuang and sighed. He said to Xu Kuang:
Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.
"The assassination came without warning and was too hidden. Your father was assassinated on the way to the provincial capital. By the time the body was returned, there was no possibility of treatment."
Xu Kuang was silent.
Wayne looked at Xu Kuang, sighed, and continued:
"When I see you...I think of your father. I want to ask you, can you...for the sake of your father and me being together for so many years and treating you well...".
Xu Kuang replied calmly:
"No, uncle, I can promise you not to deal with Audrayon and his eldest brother again, but Victor, I absolutely cannot forgive, I'm sorry, uncle."
A trace of sadness flashed across Wayne's face. He nodded and said to Xu Kuang:
"This is not bad, but what should you do if they come back to retaliate against you?".
Xu Kuang frowned slightly and said to Wayne:
"I will spare them once, just to understand the love and hatred of the previous generation. However, if after sparing them once, they still don't know good and evil, then don't blame me for being cruel."
Wayne suddenly fell to his knees on the ground with a plop. Xu Kuang was so frightened that he jumped up from the bed and knelt down opposite Wayne.
"Uncle, what are you doing! I don't mean to blame you, and I don't mean anything else. Can you stand up first?"
Wayne stood up awkwardly and said to Xu Kuang:
"I'm sorry for letting you see my bad old man's joke."
Xu Kuang shook his head and said to Wayne:
"No, I understand how you feel. It must be difficult for you to be caught in the middle, right? Write a letter to those two people and let them live in peace. Okay, that's it. I still have to deal with the aftermath. ".
Wayne nodded and forced a smile.
"My dear nephew, take care of yourself."
…
Under the auspices of Xu Kuang, large loudspeakers were installed in Mogu Ridge. There was one at regular intervals. No one knew what it was for until the voices of Xu Kuang and Xu Zheng came from inside:
"Hello, people of Mushroom Ridge, I am Xu Kuang."
"I am Xu Zheng.".
"I am the supreme commander of the Mushroom Ridge Army.".
"I am the main planner of the checkpoint incident.".
"The following is our review of the checkpoint incident. In this incident, as the top commander, I failed to detect the loopholes, which resulted in heavy losses. It was my fault..."
Xu Kuang's face was expressionless, and only his reddish eyes showed his inner unrest.
Xu Zheng choked and continued to answer:
"This was caused by my stupidity and I should bear the main responsibility...".
Everyone stopped and listened to the cries of self-blame coming from the loudspeaker.
When Wayne heard Xu Kuang's voice, he began to blame himself. He secretly cursed himself for being out of time, couldn't bear to stay, and quickly left Mushroom Ridge.
The families of those who died reacted in different ways when they heard these voices.
Some people cried even more miserably, some pointed at the speakers and yelled curses at Xu Kuang and Xu Zheng, and some had expressionless faces, nothing more sad than heartbroken.
The two of them only gave a ten-minute speech and then started visiting families with pension funds.
Some families kicked them out directly, while others happily accepted the pension, and some people not only refused to accept the pension, but began to feel grateful for Xu Kuang's kindness in taking them in.
Xu Kuang was panicking. He didn't know how he should behave, but he never wanted to see this kind of situation again in his life.
Cuihua's voice sounded in Xu Kuang's heart:
"Compassion does not control soldiers, and righteousness does not control wealth."
Xu Kuang didn't know what this meant. He didn't want to think too much and just quietly asked everyone about their demands.
It took several days for the two of them to visit all the houses.
They visited over and over again families who refused to accept pensions and kicked them out.
They did not complete the pension work until ten days later.
But Xu Kuang understood that coming to the door to provide compensation in person was just the attitude they should have. This matter was enough to stay in his and Xu Zheng's hearts for a lifetime.
At the same time, the hospital was severely understaffed, and all the clever people in Moguling were urgently transferred to the hospital to help.
Xu Kuang is also one of them.
Cuihua’s voice also sounded:
"Mission: Expand the hospital
Mission content: Expand the hospital
Mission Difficulty: C+
Mission reward: professional medical talents × 20, professional experience × 20,000."
Xu Kuang took a deep breath.
