C1182 There Were Traces of the Blade
This underground ruins of the Suo Suo civilization had been visited by countless people from various eras over the past thousands of years.
He estimated that no one had ever left this place alive. Otherwise, this wouldn't be the current scene.
Along the way, Yang Xuan and the Red Sparrow had not only encountered many dried corpses from different eras, but also countless human remains.
These human remains all had one thing in common. They either died from being killed by external forces or were trapped here, dying of hunger and thirst.
Therefore, their bones were either intact or damaged due to the intense pressure.
However, the human remains in front of them now had obvious traces of blades and weapons on them, which meant that these people had all died from swords and weapons.
But who was the murderer?
Yang Xuan frowned and thought hard. He squatted down and carefully examined the traces of weapons on the human remains.
After repeated verification, Yang Xuan was 100% sure that these people had indeed died from the weapons, and were not killed by the disgusting tentacles or some unknown force!
At this moment, Yang Xuan suddenly caught a glimpse of a short sword that was scattered on the side from the corner of his eye.
This short sword was clearly brought over by the human remains when they were alive. Other than this short sword, there were also many other weapons.
Yang Xuan was stunned. He raised his head and looked at the mountains of gold, silver, and treasures. An idea flashed through his mind.
"Red Sparrow, come with me now. Collect these weapons and bones immediately and compare them one by one!"
Yang Xuan quickly ordered Red Sparrow.
"You said they died from killing each other?"
The sparrow was stunned. Although this logic did not make sense, it still followed what Yang Xuan said. It quickly collected the weapons and the remains and began to compare them one by one.
A few minutes later, Red Sparrow had a new discovery. "Found it. This is clearly the wound on the bone. It was obviously cut by this short knife."
The sparrow held a piece of human bone and a short knife in its hand and said loudly.
Yang Xuan quickly took the bone and compared it with the short knife. He found that the wound on the bone matched the blade of this short knife!
"Continue searching!"
Yang Xuan was more and more sure that his guess was correct.
Following that, Red Sparrow and Yang Xuan found a total of three pairs of matching bones and weapons.
"I understand!"
At this time, Yang Xuan had confirmed the guess in his heart and said, "I know the secret of this checkpoint!"
"What is it?"
The red sparrow quickly asked.
Yang Xuan stared at the mountain of gold and silver and sighed with reverence, "The Dance King is indeed an extraordinary figure."
"The true danger of the fourth checkpoint doesn't come from the outside world, but from the heart!"
Hong Que couldn't quite understand what he was saying. He scratched his head and said, "The heart? What exactly is going on?"
Yang Xuan looked at the human remains scattered on the ground and sighed, "Those who risked their lives to come here. No matter which era they came from, most of them came here for the sake of money."
"For a group of people who value money more than their own lives, facing so many treasures, it is enough to awaken the selfish greed and viciousness hidden deep in their hearts."
" Everyone wants to own these treasures alone, but they are afraid that the secrets will be leaked. Plus, the dangers of the previous few tests have completely stirred up their emotions. "
"Therefore, they started slaughtering their companions, killing each other. In the end, all of them died in the hands of their companions. Or rather, they were killed by the greed, selfishness, and viciousness in their hearts!"
After hearing that, the Red Sparrow was still somewhat puzzled." What you said makes sense, but it's not that exaggerated, is it? Isn't it just some treasures that can confuse people's minds like this? "
Looking at the puzzled red sparrow, Yang Xuan shook his head slightly and said slowly, "The reason why you are not so tempted to see these treasures is that you grew up in a relatively isolated environment."
"Moreover, you've never been troubled by material things since you were young, so material things don't mean much to you."
"But the outside world is different. Money can turn people into ghosts, enough money can destroy everything, including human nature!"
After hearing this, the red sparrow continued to ask, "What about you? You don't seem to have much of a reaction. "
Yang Xuan smiled faintly and said, "It's not like I don't have any reaction. I'm not a saint, so I was also in a trance when I saw so much gold, silver, and jewelry."
"It's just that my situation is a bit special. Like you, I don't have any concept of material things."
"Simply put, both of us don't lack these things, so these things won't be of much use to us."
"However, not everyone in this world doesn't lack matter, on the contrary, the vast majority of people in this world live for the sake of matter for the rest of their lives"
"There are even many people who can't even guarantee three meals a day. To them, this amount of money and treasures is enough to turn them from humans to wild beasts"
After Yang Xuan's explanation, Red Sparrow finally understood the mystery behind this. He sighed and said, "I once read a sentence in a book. People die for money, and birds die for food. In the past, I didn't really agree with this sentence, but now that I've heard it from you... I seem to understand it now. "
" But I have a new question, there should be a lot of people in this world who don't lack materials like you and me "
"Since there are many people in this world who can't even afford to eat, we have so many things, why don't we give them some? If that's the case, won't those people no longer need to starve?"
After Yang Xuan heard this, he smiled bitterly. He sighed in his heart that the red sparrow was really too simple in some aspects.
"If everyone had the same thoughts as you, this world would have been peaceful long ago. There wouldn't be many places that are still fighting every day until now."
"It's hard to explain the things here in a few words. If we can get out of here, you will understand after a few more days of living outside."
After hearing this, the Red Sparrow nodded thoughtfully and then said. "I didn't know about this before. If I can get out of here safely this time... After I go out, I will give these things to those who don't have enough food to eat, so that they won't starve anymore. "

Yang Xuan smiled and said, "It's a good idea, but do you know how many people in this world don't have enough food to eat? Do you think you can manage it? "
Red Sparrow shook her head lightly and said, "I don't know. There might be many, many. I don't know if I can manage them either, but I can manage them all."
"Even if I only let them have a full meal, they can at least have a full meal. At least after that meal, they'll be very happy. That's enough."
Yang Xuan was stunned when he heard that. He slowly turned his head and looked at the little girl who had a firm look in her eyes. He could not help but have an indescribable feeling in his heart.
"Red Sparrow, if one day you take out all your belongings, the kind that is not left at all, and let all the people in this world who do not have enough food to eat fill their stomachs in the future."
"But the price is that you have to become a person who doesn't have enough food to eat every day. Moreover, these people who are full because of you won't be grateful to you. No one even knows that you are the one who did all of this. Are you willing?"
The Vermilion Bird said almost instantly," Why not? Just by starving me, many people will be able to eat their fill. Of course it's worth it!"
"And why do I have to let them know that I helped them? My goal is to feed them, not make friends. Why do I have to make them know me?"
After Yang Xuan heard that, he smiled and reached out his hand to pat the Red Sparrow's shoulder a few times. "If we can get out of here this time, I believe you will be the best philanthropist in the world."
Red Sparrow was stunned after hearing that. "What about philanthropists?"
Yang Xuan replied, "The kind that specializes in doing good things."
After Red Sparrow heard that, he immediately said, "Then I have to be a philanthropist. When I go out, I will immediately be a philanthropist. I want to be the best philanthropist!"
