Chapter 538

~3 min read 439 words

There is not a shred of beauty to speak of.

He was once a representative figure on the battlefield who could roar back and forth and capture two kings in one battle!

... Seeking flowers... 0

How heroic and spirited was that?

But now?

He has been pressed into the ground by Qin Mu!

Whoever is in his position would certainly not feel comfortable.

"Alright, we're here."

Just at this moment, Qin Mu suddenly stopped his steps.

"Your Majesty, isn't this Jin Shan Temple? Does Your Majesty want to go in and practice Zen and meditation?" Xuanzang looked at the familiar environment around him and asked curiously.

"Hehe, perhaps I really will have to visit Jin Shan Temple later, but not now."

Qin Mu smiled meaningfully and walked toward the wheat field on the side.

In the wheat field.

Several farmers were working diligently.

"This big brother, greetings."

Qin Mu took the initiative to greet one of the farmers.

Before leaving the palace.

Qin Mu had changed into casual clothes, and Empress Zhangsun and the others were also dressed very plainly, so ordinary people couldn't recognize them at all.

"Does this little brother have any instructions?"

That farmer wiped his sweat and smiled honestly.

"Old brother, I would like to ask, how is the grain harvest this year?"

Qin Mu continued to ask.

Xuanzang on the side didn't speak, just listened quietly.

He believed.

A person like Qin Mu could never do something meaningless.

"Hey! The harvest is indeed good, but for us farmers, there is no difference between saying it's good or bad," the farmer waved his hand, not caring at all about how the grain harvest was.

"Oh? Why is that?"

Xuanzang was somewhat curious.

Only then did he realize that he didn't understand these farmers at the foot of Jin Shan Temple at all.

After all.

Xuanzang had lived in the temple chanting scriptures and praying to Buddha since he was a child, and he also had to lecture on scriptures for many monks, so he simply didn't have time to take care of other things.

Precisely because of this.

He felt that what this farmer said was somewhat incredible.

According to reason.

Food is the most important thing for the people!

If the grain harvest is good, then the people's lives should naturally be good.

But what this farmer said was somewhat self-contradictory.

Could it be that the better the harvest, the more bitter their lives are?

That makes no sense!

"Why? Go and ask those masters in Jin Shan Temple and you'll know." The farmer saw that Xuanzang was a monk, and his expression changed immediately.
