The game starts with escaping from the famine and flipping the table

Thanks to Su Mingxian's popularization, everyone in the ruined temple had a clear understanding of spiritual roots. They naturally also knew that the five people in front of them all had natural spiritual roots, which was extremely rare.

Su Mingyi was considerate. After Su Mingxian finished speaking, he added something to give everyone a heads-up in advance: "Heavenly spiritual roots are extremely rare. There are only a dozen people in our Su family who have them."

Su Xiaoya almost laughed out loud, this is Versailles. If it weren't for the fact that everyone in the ruined temple had already tested out five heavenly spiritual roots, Su Xiaoya would definitely think that Su Mingyi was showing off.

Su Xiaoya knew in her heart that Su Mingxian said this now to comfort the boys and girls of the Xie family so that they would not be too disappointed when they were tested to have three or four spiritual roots later.

After all, it is impossible that all the people in the ruined temple have natural spiritual roots. Even if they all have single spiritual roots, that is impossible.

Of course, the Su family has a lot of single spiritual roots that are like radishes, so I won’t point them out to discourage others.

The Su family also has double spiritual roots, triple spiritual roots, and even five spiritual roots.

Sure enough, except for Dou Xingpeng, Ye Feijie, Xie Ziliang, Xie Ziwei and Xie Zihan who have natural spiritual roots, Xie Zilong, Xie Zihu, Xie Ziquan, Xie Ziyue and Xie Ziyun have dual spiritual roots.

Xie Zichu, Xie Zihuang, Xie Zimu, Xie Ziying, Xie Zixuan, Xie Zidie, Xie Zilan, Xie Ziyan and Shi Peilan all have three spiritual roots.

However, Shi Houpu, Ge Hanxing and Zhan Shuilai all have single spiritual roots.

Overall it's pretty good.

Especially since five spiritual roots suddenly appeared, the probability was extremely exceptional.

The most surprising thing is that Shi Houpu, Ge Hanxing and Zhan Shuilai all have single spiritual roots.

As expected, these old men in the ruined temple are really not simple people, they are all people with stories!

I have to say that these five old men in the ruined temple usually keep a low profile, but I didn’t expect that they have such good spiritual roots. If they were not disabled, their future achievements would be limitless.

Now, it’s still a bit of a pity.

Su Mingyi's eyes were full of joy.

Su Mingxian smiled and said to everyone: "Everyone's spiritual roots are very good. If you can practice well in the future, your future will be limitless!"

Su Xiaoya found that her cheap second brother was more like the dean of studies. These words of encouragement came out of his mouth.

"Little sister!"

Su Xiaoya was watching the show with great interest, but Su Mingyi called her directly. Su Xiaoya was still confused for a while, not knowing what Su Mingyi was going to say.

Su Mingxian looked at his eldest brother who was hesitant to speak, and his second brother who was dazed. As expected, he had to come forward to save the situation: "Little sister, do you have any recommendations for a suitable practice for them?"

"Oh!" Su Xiaoya finally came back to her senses. The main reason why Su Mingyi and Su Mingxian asked her was because of the light-based skills.

After all, she had left many five-element skills in the clan. Su Mingyi only needed to lead everyone in the ruined temple into the library and they could exchange them with points.

Now that Su Xiaoya understood, she naturally had to make up for the missing rare and mutated skills.

"Okay! But first, we should go to the Transmission Hall to teach everyone how to draw Qi into the body. After you have successfully drawn Qi into the body, you can go to the Library to find the appropriate method."

"Thank you, Master Imperial Master!" At this moment, Xie Ziliang stood up and saluted Su Xiaoya, then he said very solemnly: "Let's first participate in the Imperial Master's Hall Outer Sect Disciple Assessment in half a month!"

Hearing Xie Ziliang's words, the boys and girls of the Xie family immediately clasped their fists together. They couldn't do anything to repay a favor.

The news that the National Master Hall would conduct an assessment on the 15th of this month was announced on the day when the nine city lords took office. Therefore, the people in the ruined temple were unwilling to be the ones who broke the rules.

The reason why they were willing to test the spiritual roots in advance was that they were not sure whether all the people in the ruined temple had spiritual roots. If they did not have spiritual roots, they could only shamelessly seek Su Mingyi's help and rely on the Su family.

However, they had no plans to do so before testing.

Based on what the Imperial Master Hall did, they knew that the Imperial Master Hall was a "court" that truly spoke for the people. After all, this test did not ask about one's background, but only examined one's character and qualifications.

No one can understand better than them how difficult life is for ordinary people living at the bottom of society!

However, once the Nine Cities System was introduced, even the most displaced beggars could, like Xiao Qi, rely on their own hands to work hard, earn money, and support themselves!

No empire has ever had such an opportunity.

No, no country has ever thought of doing this.

At most they would build some orphanages or something like that, not to mention it is a drop in the bucket, what is even more terrifying is that these places have become a paradise for human traffickers and a hell for the poor people!

Therefore, this reform of the National Master Hall not only gave millions of ordinary people at the bottom of society a chance to survive, but also gave them dignity!

Who doesn’t want to be a decent person? Who doesn’t want to walk on the street with dignity, buy the food they like and the clothes they like?

The National Master Hall gave all of this.

Only at this moment do ordinary people feel that they are living as human beings!

People!

What a simple word!

What a difficult and sad word!

Once upon a time, in the eyes of those powerful people, human life was worthless. They would beat or kill anyone they wanted!

Now, with the support of the National Master Palace, no one can bully men and women anymore.

Haven’t you seen those foreign affairs disciples of the National Master’s Hall walking around the Nine Cities in white robes?

If anyone has been wronged, just find these foreign affairs disciples and they will definitely enforce the law impartially and give you justice!

This is a real personal experience that happened to someone close to me, and it has spread throughout the entire Yingyuefang City during this period.

It was the two young boys Wu Zirui and Min Yiming who were taking the assessment at the National Master's Hall who were recognized when they checked into an inn, which led to the spread of their experiences.

Some curious people asked the young boys Wu Zirui and Min Yiming for confirmation in the street, and the two admitted it personally, which immediately pushed them to the forefront of public opinion.

The two of them were quite open and honest, not at all influenced by public opinion, and were just waiting for the assessment of the foreign affairs disciples of the National Master's Hall.

Wu Zirui is the only son of Wu Dahai, the owner of the "Weixiangju" snack shop in Luoyang City.

Min Yiming is the eldest son of Zhao Yibo, the owner of the "Juxianlou" restaurant in Luoyang City, and his first wife.

The "Weixiangju" snack shop is located in a corner of Nanzheng Street in Luoyang City.

Nanzheng Street in Luoyang City has always been a bustling place with people coming and going and a lively atmosphere.

The "Weixiangju" in a corner of the main street is particularly eye-catching.

The boss, Wu Dahai, is in his forties. He is a loyal and honest man with a pair of skillful hands. His original meat soup dumplings and crispy pot cakes are so delicious that one bite will make you linger on the taste.

Every day before dawn, there is already a long queue in front of the shop and business is booming.

Chen Dahai stirred the boiling soup with his copper spoon. The thin dough wrapped with the hot fresh meat filling was put into the steamer. The white soup dumplings looked like magnolias covered with morning dew.

The pot cake on the chopping board was sizzling with oil, and the golden and crispy corners were cracking, revealing the aroma of wheat mixed with chopped green onions.

The tempting aroma wafts in the morning mist on the South Main Street of the city, making people salivate and want to eat it immediately.

The wooden carved sign of the Juxianlou next door was covered with dust.

The waiter was lazily leaning against the edge of the table, wiping the table that he had been wiping for nearly a quarter of an hour, with his eyes half open, not caring whether the Juxian Tower was deserted or not.

Zhao Qiang, the owner of Juxianlou, was leaning on the railing on the second floor at this time, digging his nails into the peeling paint on the wooden railing, watching the line at the door of Weixiangju getting longer and longer until it turned the corner...

Jealousy changes people beyond recognition.

"Juxianlou" was originally a restaurant with good food, but its business plummeted after "Weixiangju" became popular.

The new boss is named Zhao Qiang, the son of Zhao Yi-bo, the boss of "Juxianlou".

It’s a pity that Zhao Qiang was idle and did not work properly. After inheriting "Juxianlou", his business plummeted.

It was only thanks to the relationship that his sister was the wife of Qi Bin, a clerk in the government office, that the store was able to survive and not completely go bankrupt.

Zhao Qiang was extremely jealous when he saw the booming business of "Weixiangju" and secretly planned on how to take it over for himself.

The night was deep, everything was silent, and the sound of the clappers at midnight echoed in the quiet streets, like a messenger of the night, announcing a deeper level of tranquility. However, in this silence, a dark figure quietly climbed over the wall of Weixiangju like a ghost and lightly jumped into the kitchen.

This dark figure was none other than the street thug Liu San. He stealthily took out an oil-paper bag and carefully opened it. The white powder inside glowed with a bluish-grey light under the moonlight.

According to Zhao Qiang, this powder is a "knockout drug" specifically used to knock down wild dogs.

Liu San looked around nervously, and after making sure that there was no one around, he quickly sprinkled the powder into the flour jar.

Just as he was about to leave, a cat's cry suddenly came from outside the window. This sudden sound seemed particularly abrupt in the quiet night, and Liu San's heartbeat accelerated instantly, as if it was being tightly squeezed by an invisible hand.

His hand trembled, and the oil-paper bag fell directly to the ground. The half bag of soybeans at his feet was kicked over to the ground, making a rustling sound. This sound was like thunder in the silent night, and frightened Liu San so much that he didn't bother to pick up the oil-paper bag, and staggered over the wall to escape.

The next morning, the sunlight at the hour of Mao shines through the window and onto the steamer at Weixiangju.

Wu Dahai opened the steamer as usual, ready to welcome a new day of business.

However, he never expected that a dozen yamen runners would rush open the wooden door like wolves and tigers. The leader, Li Bantou, waved the chain and shouted angrily: "Someone died suddenly after eating your soup dumplings! We have already reported him to the court."

Wu Dahai looked at the runners in astonishment. Before he could react, his wrists were tightly tightened by chains, and blood immediately oozed out from the marks.

He followed Li Bantou's gaze and saw the soybeans on the stove scattered all over the floor, obviously the traces left behind by someone in a panic last night.

An ominous premonition arose in Wu Dahai's heart, and his eyes searched the crowd.

Suddenly, he saw Zhao Qiang.

Zhao Qiang stood there with a straw stick in the corner of his mouth, looking like he was smiling. To Wu Dahai, that smile was full of sarcasm and malice.

This game was set up by Zhao Qiang.

Zhao Qiang found several yamen runners in the government office, and bribed them with a large sum of money under the name of his brother-in-law, asking them to help set a trap to frame Wu Dahai.

These yamen runners had received many benefits from Zhao Qiang on a daily basis. In addition, because of the face of Zhao Qiang's brother-in-law, these yamen runners naturally obeyed his orders.

Speaking of which, the owner of "Juxianlou" originally had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Min Yiming, was born to his first wife and was once his father's treasure.

Unfortunately, when Min Yiming was three years old, his mother went to burn incense and encountered robbers. She died in order to save her son.

Min Yiming's hard days are coming.

Under the carved eaves of Juxian Tower, three-year-old Min Yiming clutched the silver hairpin left by his mother and watched his father Zhao Yibo hastily bury the coffin in the back mountain.

Just after the seventh day, Zhao Yibo brought his stepmother Yu into the family, and the three-year-old Min Yiming could do nothing.

He even didn't quite understand what kind of life he would face next.

Yu was arrogant. With the help of her maid, she walked to Min Yiming step by step, and poked the red nail of her fingertips into his tender neck: "What are you doing here, you motherless bastard? Why don't you go and feed the dogs?"

Juxianlou, this once famous restaurant, has now become a thorn in Min Yiming's heart.

As the legitimate successor of Juxianlou, he should have lived a life of luxury in this restaurant, enjoying the admiration and flattery of everyone.

However, fate played a cruel joke on him.

Min Yiming's stepmother, a cruel and ruthless woman, ruthlessly drove him to the doghouse in the backyard on the second day after he got married.

She even called it "feeding the dog"!

In fact, Min Yiming began to eat and sleep with dogs from then on.

Who would have thought that Juxianlou was originally the property of the Min family, and Min Yiming was the rightful heir to this restaurant?

Back then, Zhao Yi Bo married into the Min family with nothing, and it was only with the support of Min Yiming's father-in-law that the Juxianlou brand was established.

However, the good times did not last long.

Min Yiming's father-in-law had just passed away less than a year ago, and his original wife was robbed while burning incense.

Faced with sudden danger, the brave mother chose to protect her son without hesitation.

During the fierce fight, she was stabbed three times, but her hands always tightly protected Min Yiming in her arms, as if he was the most precious treasure in her life.

Blood gushed out from her wound like a fountain, quickly soaking the clothes of Min Yiming, whom she held tightly in her arms, dyeing the white cloth scarlet.

However, what is chilling is that Zhao Yibo removed the mourning hall and married Yu just after the seventh day of Min's death. Yu's wrist is already wearing the jade bracelet of his late wife Min.

In the light of the candle, the jade bracelet emitted a creepy cold light, as if mocking the coldness and hypocrisy of this world.

What was even more unexpected was that Yu's belly was also very "promising". In just six months, she gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl.

All these coincidences make people deeply doubt the truth behind it.

Zhao Yibo and Yu had probably been secretly having an affair for a long time and were pregnant.

The incident of Min being attacked while burning incense is probably not as simple as it seems. There may be more unknown conspiracies and calculations hidden in it.

Unfortunately, the Min family only has one child left, Min Yiming, who is only three years old. Who would help a three-year-old child?
