Chapter 223 , Awareness of Being Born in a Borderland.

Si Luo looked into the old man's eyes subconsciously, and asked curiously.

"Recognize what?"

The old man stared at her for a while, as if he was trying to determine something, and his cloudy eyes were even more confusing.

He shook his head and said with a smile: "Perhaps the old man has mixed thoughts and overthinks."

Si Luo suddenly understood.

This old man selling baked fruit is by no means an ordinary person.

There is no other reason.

She observed carefully and found that the old man used to only use his right hand when baking fruit, and there was a very obvious thick callus on the inner side of his right thumb, including the inner side of the other four fingers, which also had different degrees of hard callus, with deep lines , which looks unusually rough.

If it's hard work, that's fine.

However, the old man's left hand is no different from ordinary people, without any calluses.

This is definitely a hand used to holding a sword.

She has seen the same situation with Jiang Yuntian and Xu Mu.

Moreover, when the old man looked at her, he gave people a sense of calm and prestige, and there was a hidden sharpness in his cloudy eyes.

This is by no means just an ordinary merchant, but a superior who is used to giving orders.

At first, she just secretly guessed.

He didn't want to say a few words, but the old man only said a word, which exposed a little.

Although Si Luo is very interested in this old man with a mysterious identity, but the premise is to confirm the identity of this old man!

Because in this place where fish and dragons are mixed together, it is really not sure whether the person standing in front of me is an enemy or a friend.

Si Luo showed a harmless smile to the old man, and asked tentatively in a curious tone.

"Old man, seeing that the war is about to start, Qinnan City is still full of excitement, and there is no sign of relocation... Don't the city residents think that if the war between the two countries spreads here, none of them will be able to escape? ?”

Hearing this, the old man lowered his eyes and smiled, and said as a matter of course, "That's because the people here know that the Holy Majesty will never allow the enemy's iron hooves to successfully set foot on this coast. They also dare not act rashly, a big country has the confidence of a big country, and as the people of a big country, we naturally have the courage to stay in the face of war!"

"This is our territory, our territory, why should we retreat? Why should we flee?"

"Can escaping solve the problem? No, since you were born in this borderland, you must have this awareness. People in Qinnan City are born tough warriors."

Si Luo was deeply shocked by the slightly excited expression of the old man when he said these words.

Si Luo didn't expect that the people in a small frontier of Yinchao had such backbones, no wonder the Yinchao's national power was strong and enduring for a long time.

The old man said this.

Si Luo completely dispelled the worries in his heart.

In such a chaotic place, for an old man who can describe the enemy as a dog, what is there to continue to question?

This old man is also a cruel man.

He really had no worries when he blurted out these words when he was not sure whether Si Luo was a spy of the enemy country.

The old man raised his head and smiled.

"Young man, old man, I advise you, if you have no other purpose, just come here out of curiosity, you should leave as soon as possible. Be careful of the right and wrong involved here, but it will be difficult to get out!"
