Xue Yan only used montum force to turn the man around, making the other party eat the grass on the ground, unable to get up, also unable to break free.

Jiang Yue spoke again. She did not speak to the big farr. She continued to speak to the small farr. “I have a few questions. If you answer truthfully, we’ll let your son go.”

“Alright, alright, alright. Go ahead and ask. I won’t lie to you.” The small farr started to sweat; worried for his son.

“Where is this place?” Jiang Yue asked.

“What do you an where is this place?” The small farr looked confused. “Are you lost? We’re near Stone Village. That’s Stone Village over there. We’re all villagers from that village. We are fighting to find wild vegetables to satisfy our hunger. Moreover, most of the wild vegetables that just appeared this year have been dug up. If there’s nothing to eat, we end up having to eat grass, leaves, and tree bark. We don’t know if we can last until the crops mature this year. We don’t want to rob you either. It’s just too hard to wild vegetables every day. We just want to see if we can rob so silver from soone to buy so food. If we can rob you of food, such as stead buns, it’ll be best. Those are all fine grains. We haven’t eaten them for many years. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Please be rciful and let my son go. We promise we won’t do it again. I beg you. Please let us go!” At this point, he clasped his hands together and begged for forgiveness.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other.

Just now, when he saw the way these two people dressed, he could imdiately tell that they were poor. However, he did not expect them to be struggling that much. What difference was it from famine?

However, he was not in a hurry to release the big farr. Jiang Yue asked again, “Since that’s Stone Village, what’s the na of the country it belongs to? Are there any other countries here?”

“You speak as if you’re not from this world,” the short farr muttered.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan heard it but didn’t reply.

The small farr did not know that they had heard him. After muttering, he quickly replied, “This is Da Chen! How can there be other countries here? As early as two years ago, Da Chen destroyed other countries and unified the world! It’s just that the Emperor turned tyrannical. He’s a tyrant.

“After unifying the world, we thought that good days would co. Who knew that our days would beco more and more miserable? With heavy taxes, the farrs with fields started suffering from poor harvests every year!

“The crops they grow every year are not enough to pay taxes. It’s fine if they don’t think of a way to increase the inco of the farrs’ fields, but why is this happening to us? Are they trying to kill off all the farrs? Last year, our family barely managed to pay our taxes. This year, we won’t be able to pay for it. Those who couldn’t pay up would probably be captured by the governnt to work as coolies to build palaces and temples.

“It’s fine if they pay us, but the thing is, I heard that they were not given enough to eat when they worked as coolies. The food they ate was especially low in nutrition and they were required to do hard labor! Many people were either exhausted or starved to death. The problem when you stopped was that the soldiers would whip you and tell you to work faster.

“If you couldn’t work, they would whip you until you could. It was said that many people lost their lives there. The tyrant also killed many good officials, such as the Pri Minister who was dedicated to the people. He also killed the Imperial Censors who were outspoken and remonstrated with him. He also killed many nobles. Now, no officials dare to speak out to persuade him to stop.

“The people have also given up and feel that they can’t see the light of day. We’re all just trying to barely survive in this world.”
