Chapter 382
Although he wanted to try every possible way to encounter some key events and trigger new tasks.
But Qin Feng was not someone who would crowd into wherever there was excitement.
It was just that the woman's crying not far away was too heart-wrenching.
It made him involuntarily cast his gaze over there.
After all, no one was hard-hearted.
Even if one couldn't empathize, hearing such desperate crying would make people unable to help but feel sympathy.
If it was a matter of lifting a finger, they were still willing to help if they could.
Therefore, Qin Feng and Lin An involuntarily walked toward the direction from which the crying came.
Although the sound was quite loud, in fact, there were only a few people making the sound.
And most of them were women.
It seemed that several middle-aged women were persuading a woman who was kneeling in the center and crying heart-wrenchingly to restrain her grief, and not to waste time here anymore, but to go home and take good care of her children.
Although what they said was a long-winded mess, it summed up to that meaning.
Seeing such a scene, Qin Feng and Lin An were both a bit speechless.
They had thought that something had happened here, like bullying men and women, or forcibly seizing a woman.
It turned out they had encountered such a scene.
This made them, after seeing this, not want to get involved, but instead wanted to leave quickly.
After all, most of the people who gathered around were middle-aged women, and the two of them, one was a man, and the other was a young girl.
Encountering such a scene where a woman was kneeling on the ground wailing and crying, and there was a group of middle-aged women or even aunties around comforting her.
They really didn't know how to persuade her.
However, just when Qin Feng and Lin An intended to leave, the system that had been silent for a long time moved again.
The familiar system prompt sounded, making Qin Feng involuntarily stop his steps.
[Ding-dong, the system issues a main task: Sunset Empire.]
[Task 1: Please find the husband of Xiaofang and retrieve the lost Sunset Relic.]
[Task Reward: Yellow Crystal Stone * 1.]
A main task?
In this real world, there was actually such a thing as a main task?
So, the tasks the system had issued to him before were all just side tasks?
Was it to let him gain experience, earn gold coins, or cultivation resources?
And this task was the direction and main line for his future growth?
Qin Feng almost wanted to laugh.
This really made it like playing a game.
Although he was very interested in this main task.
But he would absolutely not let his future pace of becoming stronger follow the guidance of this task because of it.
He would not be controlled by anyone.
Since this task was a main task, it proved that the importance of this task was extraordinary.
It could even be said that it had reached the point where it had to be done.
Although the system did not force him to complete it.
But as long as Qin Feng was still curious about the system's purpose.
As long as Qin Feng still wanted to know what would happen next.
He had to accept this task.
This was an open conspiracy, a dignified open conspiracy, but Qin Feng had to take the bait voluntarily.
"Wait a moment, I see this woman crying so sadly, it shouldn't be a small matter. I'll go ask what happened?"
Qin Feng called out to Lin An, who was about to leave with him.
He said such an abrupt sentence,
Making Lin An widen her eyes for a moment, not understanding how Qin Feng could say one thing and do another, changing his mind faster than the weather.
However, this was not a big deal, it was just meddling in someone else's business, and Lin An didn't mind, so she nodded and stood in place without leaving.
Anyway, it wasn't asking her to make contact, so she didn't care.
"This elder sister. What happened?"
To be honest, Qin Feng was really not a gossipy person.
Especially gossip like this between neighbors, he really hadn't experienced much of it.
And when he talked about some current events or sports stars, movies, etc., with people around him before, it was when he was in college, communicating with his roommates and classmates.
Therefore, even if he opened his mouth for the sake of the task, Qin Feng felt a bit awkward in his heart when asking.
It wasn't that he disliked anything, but he really didn't know how to communicate with a group of middle-aged women.
He was actually not a cold-natured person; originally, he could be considered a sunny and cheerful young man.
It was just that death, rebirth, and endless killing and disputes over the years had made him gradually suppress his true nature.
He understood that only reason and steadiness could allow him to live better.
Qin Feng suddenly came over to ask, making this group of middle-aged women stunned.
And the woman who was wailing and crying on the ground seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw.
Suddenly, she pounced over and hugged Qin Feng's feet tightly.
Afraid that Qin Feng would leave just like that.
"Adventurer lord, you are an adventurer lord, right?"
Regardless of whether Qin Feng was or not, at least after this woman saw him, she didn't care about anything else.
She just hoped he was.
Combined with the task the system had issued before, to find Xiaofang's husband.
Qin Feng guessed that it was probably this woman's husband who had gone missing.
She had lost her backbone, which was why she was so sad.
After all, in such a world.
The status of female cultivators who might be powerful is absolutely not lower than that of men.
They can also live very well independently.
But in an ordinary family, a man is absolutely the backbone of a family.
The backbone has collapsed, disappeared, and this family will naturally be hit hard as a result.
