different devil life

"Father, who are those masters?" Wang Zhong asked.

"Master is the most powerful person in the city. When you test your spiritual root, they will also test it."

As he said that, Zhao Dahai urged Wei Yan: "Go into the house and take out the things the master gave us."

"Well, son, let's go in."

Three people entered the room, Zhao Dahai carefully looked outside, and then closed the door tightly.

Wei Yan took out a piece of folded paper at this time, and she opened it carefully, and there was a pile of black powder inside.

"Son, we asked for this specially for Master, and it cost your father 100 taels of silver." Wei Yan poured a glass of water from the side and handed it to Wang Zhong: "Drink this."

Chapter 105 Spirit Root Test

Looking at this dark thing, Wang Zhong instinctively wanted to reject it.

After all, it's dark and doesn't look very good. What if I eat it and ruin my stomach?

But he also knew that he didn't know as much about the world as his parents, and there was no doubt that his parents were good to him, so he didn't refuse, but asked: "Father, mother, can you tell me what this is? Don't you You have always treated me like a child, and I understand some things, but you keep it from me, which makes me a little uncomfortable."

What Wang Zhong said was extremely calm, and Zhao Dahai and his wife were taken aback.

I have long felt that my son matured earlier than other children, but listening to what he said just now, this is not only precocious, it is already mature.

Seeing his son's seriousness, Wei Yan said: "The head of the family, my son is so smart, just tell him."

"Well, I was worried that you wouldn't understand, but you have asked, so let me talk about it. This thing can make your spiritual root test even better."

"Better? In other words, the spiritual root level of the test will be higher?" Wang Zhong asked.

"As expected of our son, it's easy to understand. This thing is called spiritual root ash. Soaking it in water can make people's spiritual roots better. Many children have found very good spiritual roots after eating this thing." Zhao The sea explained.

Wang Zhong looked down at the pile of black powder, without any fluctuations in his heart.

The original owner died at the age of 21, which showed that the spirit root ash had no effect at all.

However, he still has to drink this stuff, it's better than no help at all.

After drinking, Wang Zhong did not have any abnormality.

Wei Yan immediately packed up her things and sighed, "Fortunately, Butcher Zhang's second son is still young, otherwise he might be sent out of the city."

"Isn't that right, but Lao Lin's nephew, who was tested to level three before, is just 15 years old this year."

"Isn't that..." Wei Yan's face turned pale.

"Yes, I was sent to the guide team at the mass grave. I just left today. There is no way. If the things from that place come over, it will be very troublesome. Someone must do this." Zhao Dahai sighed: "It's really pitiful." ah."

"Father, are you saying that those with low spiritual roots will be sent outside the city?" Wang Zhong asked.

"Of course, those people don't live long. Before they die, they have to make some contribution to the people in the city. Otherwise, although there are masters in the city, if there are too many evil things, it will be very troublesome."

Wang Zhong's heart sank. His spiritual roots should be weak too. Doesn't this mean that he will also be sent out of the city at that time?

"Old Lin's nephew is really unlucky, he was sent to a mass grave instead of being sent to other places." Wei Yan said with emotion.

"That place is basically doomed. Didn't a guide team go there last year, but they didn't come back, and the body couldn't even be found."

"That's better than Gaolaozhuang. Wasn't a leading team found in Gaolaozhuang before? They were all tied up and drained of blood. It is said that they watched themselves being sucked to death little by little. Yes, that's worse."

"Speak less, the child is here, it scares him..."

As Zhao Dahai said, he glanced at Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong consciously pretended to be asleep on the bed, as if he didn't hear their conversation.

"Huh... Fortunately, my son is asleep. Otherwise, knowing about these dead people will leave him with a psychological shadow." Zhao Dahai reminded.

"It's just you spoiling him, what if you spoil him?" Wei Yan slightly blamed him.

"If you are spoiled, spoil it. This world is not for human beings. We live carefully every day, and we will die at every turn. Hey, our son, don't ask him to be rich and powerful, but only ask him to live his life in peace..."

Listening to the conversation between his parents, Wang Zhong didn't speak, his heart was warm, and at the same time, he silently absorbed the knowledge in his heart.

From their conversation, he learned that the outside of Snow White City is really dangerous.

There are mass graves and Gao Lao Village around, just hearing what happened in these places already made his hair stand on end.

The leading team disappeared collectively, and the entire team of the leading team was drained of blood.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Dahai and Wei Yan continued to talk, but they were talking about trivial matters, and Wang Zhong gradually fell asleep.

Time passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was the end of the year.

This year, Wang Zhong turned four years old, and his so-called fiancée heard that he was going to test his spiritual roots.

Logically speaking, it is enough to test Lingen at the age of five, but some wealthy families will give some money to secretly let their children test Lingen at a later age.

Because there is an unwritten rule among the people, it is said that the later the child's spiritual root is tested, the higher the level of the spiritual root.

"Xiaodong, Lin Wu is going to test the spirit root today, you guys have already made a baby kiss, do you want to see it?" Early in the morning, Zhao Dahai hugged Wang Zhong and said with a smile.

"Of course I want it." Wang Zhong was right in his arms when he heard it.

"I heard from Lao Lin that this time he gave the tester 150 taels of silver to force Lin Wu to take the test at the age of seven. The price is getting more and more expensive. Didn't they just say 100 taels before?"

Wei Yan took the clothes, and while putting them on for Wang Zhong, chattered endlessly.

"There's nothing I can do about my appetite getting bigger, but the tester is quite polite. Others have given money, but they can only delay the test until the age of six. It's not bad for Lin Wu to delay the child until the age of seven." Zhao said. Dahai explained: "Change the child's clothes, let's go there early, Lao Lin is probably waiting for us."

"Ah."

These days, Wang Zhong learned a lot.

Generally speaking, the most important thing for people in this world is not money or power, but spiritual root testing.

The importance of Lingen testing here is even more important than the college entrance examination, because it can directly affect the life of a five-year-old child.

The higher the spiritual root, it proves that the longer the child lives, the longer he lives, the better the future will be.

For example, Zhao Dahai and Wei Yan, their spiritual roots were level 7 when they were young, which means that they can live to at least 70 years old.

Of course, this refers to living to over 70 years old, if there are no accidents.

And if the spiritual root is low, it means that the child will not live long.

For example, the two children of Zhang Butcher's family have first-level spiritual roots, which means that they can live to be ten years old at most.

Wang Zhong didn't know why, the children were obviously not sick, but when the longevity arrived, the children would really die.

And it is said that he looked very miserable when he died. Although he had never seen it, after his mother Wei Yan saw it once, she didn't eat for several days.

From Zhong Wang's analysis, if the first level of spiritual root lives to ten years old, then the second level, third level, and fourth level should correspond to 20, 30, and 40 years old, and so on.

Some people in the second and third grades are in an embarrassing situation, and they all reach their longevity when they are young and middle-aged, which is very miserable.

The three of them went out together, and many people met Zhao Dahai along the way and greeted them cordially.

Looking at where these people went, it was obvious that they were all heading towards the large square in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

Wang Zhong had been there once before when he was going to the market. The place was very big and there were soldiers guarding it during the day.

"Old Lin." Finally arrived at the door of a shop called Lin's Cloth, Zhao Dahai, who had traveled all the way, greeted him.

Lin Wu was being carried by Lao Lin when she saw Zhao Dahai coming over and said with a smile, "Here we are, waiting for you, let's go."

With that said, Lin Zhou put Lin Wu down.

Lin Wu looked at Wang Zhong curiously, and said in a childish voice, "It's so tall, little brother."

"Haha, Lin Wu, this is your future husband-in-law." Lin Zhou laughed.

Lin Wu muttered, "I don't want it, he's too young."

Chapter 106 Spirit Root Talent

After hearing Lin Wu's reply, the adults burst out laughing.

Wang Zhong was very speechless when it came to jokes among adults, after all he was not a child, which made him very embarrassed.

Turning his head, he said to Linzhou: "Uncle Lin, how many people are there for this spiritual root test?"

"Probably more than 40 children. Let's go. It's late, and the good place has been taken." Lin Zhou said, and picked up Lin Wu again.

Lin Wu's mother went out at this time, closed the house, and the two families walked while chatting.

After walking for about 20 minutes, Wang Zhong finally saw many people standing in the square in the distance.

Many of them were carrying a child on their backs, stretching their necks and looking inside.

"Father, when will I be able to test my spiritual root?" came the immature voice of a child next to me.

"I will take you to take the test next year, you boy, you have to be more confident."

"Don't worry dad, my spiritual root must be very powerful."

Just finished speaking, another child in the distance cried and shouted: "Mom, why did my spiritual root last year only be at the third level, and other children scolded me for being short-lived, woo woo woo, am I really short-lived? My body is so short-lived. Strong, I don't want to die so soon, I want to be by my mother's side."

"Oh, my poor child..."

In another place, a man in his 20s was standing next to a woman, his expression trembling slightly: "I was tested as a third-level spiritual root when I was five years old, and now I'm 29, Ah Zhen, I'm afraid I'm going to die next year, I'm dead, you should find a good man to marry."

"Brother Qiang, I don't want it. Your body is so strong. There is nothing wrong with you. You won't die." A woman leaned on the man with tears in her eyes.

"Hehe, no matter how strong your body is, what's the use? It's been so many years. People who have been tested to the third level of spiritual root have never lived past the age of 30..."

Listening to the words of the people around him, Wang Zhong looked indifferent.

At this time, a voice came: "Uncle Lin, Uncle Zhao."

Wang Zhong looked over, he also knew this young man, his name was Sun Daniu, he was one year younger than Lin Wu, and he usually liked to play with his wife Lin Wu.

"Daniel, where are your parents? I remember you also want to test your spiritual root?" Zhao Dahai asked.

"Yeah, I'm with Lin Wu." Sun Daniu said: "My parents have come to reserve a seat in advance, let's go together, he also reserved a seat for you."

"Okay." Linzhou nodded.

Zhao Dahai took Wang Zhong's hand and walked over.

The square is very large, with the City Lord's Mansion on the front. The 20-meter-high building gives people a majestic and majestic feeling. There are soldiers in armor holding spears standing on it.

As for the bottom, a temporary platform was built, and some soldiers stood around the platform to maintain order.

There were crowds of people below, but they were all blocked from the periphery and were not allowed to approach the temporary platform.

"Big cow, big cow!"

On the left side of the platform, a strong man yelled loudly, and Sun Daniu responded, "Father, I'm here."

Zhao Dahai and Lin Zhou also walked over, and the adults were all old neighbors, and began to chat with each other.

The adults chatted, and the children chatted too.

Sun Daniu said to Lin Wu: "Xiao Wu, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid, my parents said, as long as you are not afraid, the spiritual root can be tested well." Lin Wu shrank her neck and said.

Sun Daniu smiled honestly: "You are so brave."

Wang Zhong rolled his eyes at the side, this guy fell in love with his fiancée at such a young age.

But Wang Zhong didn't mean to be jealous, after all, everyone was still young, so he couldn't afford to be jealous of a brat.

"Sun Daniu, your brother's spirit root has been tested to level five. Although it is not high, it is not bad. You are stronger than your brother, so you should be better." Lin Wu said.

"I hope." Sun Daniu smiled, turned to Wang Zhong and said, "Zhao Xiaodong, you are here too."

Only now do I know I'm here.

Wang Zhong nodded expressionlessly: "Well, come and have a look."

"You're too skinny, it's hard to test your spirit root." Sun Daniu said bluntly.

"Daniu, don't talk nonsense." Lin Wu was a little angry, "My father said that Xiaodong will be my future husband-in-law."

Sun Daniu became a little impatient: "That's something grown-ups say casually while drinking, and it can't be taken seriously. This, this..."

He originally wanted to say that I like you too, but in the end he was too embarrassed to say it.
