Chapter 223 Requests from mortals
At night, just after dinner, a group of children were chasing and fighting on the road, while the villagers gathered in the middle of the village and chatted with the light of the crystal tower.
The moon is just round in the sky. Under the moonlight, the double-story bluestone houses in the village are arranged neatly, and the bluestone roads are flat and wide, leading from the entrance of the village to the end of the village. Such neat houses and such wide and flat stone roads are not common if they were placed in the past, let alone such a small village, even in big cities.
But now, these villagers ignore these things and look commonplace.
In addition to modern lighting equipment such as street lights and square dance groups, this village is somewhat like the modern rural area in its previous life.
"I heard that the court recently sent troops to clear out the bandits everywhere. Jiutou Mountain, Shuangjian Peak, and hundreds of bandits in Hulu Valley were all wiped out!"
"Since the immortals intervened, our lives have been much better."
"The army was all disbanded, leaving only a portion of the elite. We no longer have to worry about being arrested."
"Catch the strong men? You think! The soldiers nowadays cannot get in without strict inspection! Their treatment is different from before. Any big-headed soldier will have higher military pay than the previous sergeant!"
"I remember back then, when we talked about arresting strong men, we wanted to hide in the ground. Now, we don't have to go there."
"If we can't be soldiers, we will be honest as farmers. We have treasures given by immortals. We live this life so comfortable."
"Next year my baby will be five years old. I'm going to take him to school to learn what the immortals teach."
"I think so too."
Just as he was saying this, suddenly, a few whistles came from afar. The villagers quickly got up, and some children heard the sound and ran directly to the entrance of the village.
After they arrived at the entrance of the village, a large truck had already stopped there.
Unlike trucks in another world, this truck, without the roar of the engine and pungent exhaust, was replaced by a faint blue light coming from the bottom of the car and under the hood.
Suddenly, a few whistles came faintly from the night sky, and then a cloud of light lit up from the distance at the newly built bluestone road at the entrance of the village.
Without the roar of the engine and exhaust gas, the light blue light emitted from the bottom of the car and under the hood.
Immediately afterwards, the car door opened and four or five middle-aged men jumped down.
"We're back and we're all coming out to move things!"
The villagers who had heard the sound had long been carrying shoulder poles, dustpans, and baskets. They surrounded the truck. A middle-aged man pulled open the rear carriage, revealing the pile of prey on it.
Deer, wild boar, pheasant, antelope, roe deer, hare...
There are even two tigers with colorful fur and a big black bear with a height of one person!
There were also a bunch of wild fruits of various colors scattered on the top, embedded in the gaps of various colors of prey, stained with a lot of blood.
The villagers seemed to have been used to this scene, and they were strongly carrying sticks to carry large preys, while others threw small preys such as pheasants and hares down from the other side. The women and children below were responsible for picking up these preys and falling wild fruits, filling them in baskets, and transporting them back to the village.
Although the scene seemed a bit chaotic, it was in chaos and order. Soon, half of the hills made of prey were moved away.
The middle-aged men looked at this lively scene, even though they were tired, they could not block the joy in their eyes.
An old man walked out of the village with a cane, walked up to them, and said with relief.
"Ryozi, this time I have gained a lot. I have dried so many prey and stored it. When it is winter, it will be enough for us to eat for at least half a month."
Guo Liang picked up the pipe rod and took a sip, sprayed out a large mouthful of white smoke, turned his head and smiled.
"That's what there are treasures given by immortals. Hunting is not a matter of being easy to capture. Not to mention wild boars, you won't be afraid of meeting a black blind man."
A man next to him interrupted: "There is also this car, whisper, it is much more powerful than a carriage and a ox carriage. He pulls so much prey and runs like flying. If there is no such car, no matter how many prey you can catch, it will not be able to pull it."
"We will go out again after a few days. Taking advantage of the fact that the beast is fat now, we will quickly get more back. As long as we can survive the new grain, we will be over."
The old man suddenly remembered something, took out paper and pen from his arms, and asked, "By the way, when it comes to this, I'll remember how much you have spent this time."
The men raised the magical instruments and displayed the points on them.
"I'm minus 378 points now, and I spent 107 this time."
"Min is minus 425, and it took 95 points this time."
"I spent a lot this time. I used my magic weapon to build a house in the wild, so I spent 212 o'clock this time."
"Min is minus 391, and this time I used 100 points."
The village chief recorded the dots they used one by one.
"Don't worry, this is the ordinary point that you contribute to the village. Didn't the immortal chief say that you will arrange the task of earning ordinary points for us in the future. At that time, all your expenses will be borne by the village."
A man put away his magic weapon and said in confusion: "But since the immortal master takes care of us so much, why do you still charge for it? He also specially made this ordinary point. I owe hundreds of points, so I dare not use it openly."
"This is the cleverness of the immortals." The village chief put away his paper and pen, and pointed the crowd with his chin. "Have you seen those second-rate people? Have they planted crops before? Now if they don't work, they have no meat to eat, so they are willing to work hard. After this time, will they still work hard?"
"With the magical instrument, you can't die of freezing. If you get sick, you can't die of treatment. Let's put it this way, just look for something to eat and you can't die of starvation. If so many treasures are really open to mortals, there will definitely be some people who are lazy and don't work. If you live on these treasures, what will those who work hard or think about it?"
The man slapped his thigh: "I must be unhappy! The labor and capital work hard, why does his life be so comfortable!"
"Yes, the one who contributes his strength is the same as the one who does not contribute. Who will still contribute in the future?"
"But if these treasures require Huafan points, it will be different. The situation is special now. I won't mention it for now. After the immortal elder dispatches tasks to us in the future, don't do it? Then don't use treasures."
The man looked suddenly: "So that's how it is. He is worthy of being the immortal master of the Ba Pavilion. He thinks so thoughtful."
"Nonsense, that's the immortal. You think you're like you, a stubborn."
"Damn! You complained to me yesterday, do you still have the face to say to me?"
"Okay, okay, stop arguing, I'll go back if I have nothing to do."
"What, do you miss your wife? Haha..."
"Nonsense, once you go out for more than half a month, don't you want your wife and children? Besides, the court has said that as long as you have a child, regardless of the gender, you will get five taels of silver for one. You will get five taels of silver for raising until you are five years old, ten or fifteen years old. After you turn five, you can go to school for free and even have lunch. Such a good thing, how can you not have more than a few more?"
"Tsk tsk, since the immortals took action, our lives are simply from heaven and on the ground. Don't worry about being arrested and the taxes have been reduced by more than half. There are rewards for having children!"
"I heard that the Immortals set rules for the emperor and the others. From then on, wars are not allowed between countries. If this war is not done, the money saved will be more."
"But speaking of this, the Immortal Lord is so good to us mortals, what are you planning to do? Can we still help the Immortal Lord?"
"I don't know, I only know that as long as it was done by the lay Buddhists of Bage, it will definitely be correct!"
“That’s true.”
After talking for a while, another man said with emotion.
"It would be great if there were treasures that could store grain. If so many wild fruits and vegetables on the mountain could be stored, it would be a large amount of food in winter."
"I heard that the emperor has a special ice cellar, which can save summer fruits until winter, just like the ones that have just been picked. Immortal Chang is so powerful that it should be fine to build an ice cellar that can be used by mortals, right?"
Another person's eyes lit up: "Speaking of this, does not the crystal tower have a function, can I ask Xianchang for help? Why not...?"
The village chief quickly stopped him: "Don't make trouble because you have nothing to do. That's only when an emergency occurs. Use emergency contact for this small matter. If the immortal chief blames it, we can't even take care of it!"
"Then... ask the immortal chiefs who came to help? Are these immortal chiefs not hired by the lay Buddhists of Bage? They will definitely be able to contact the lay Buddhists of Bage or his disciples. Besides, we have no selfish intentions, so we ask this for the sake of all mortals."
"The lay Buddhists of Bage are so concerned about us mortals, so they shouldn't be angry."
"this···"
The village chief pondered for a while, and finally nodded.
"Okay, I'll go and ask when the immortal comes tomorrow."
the next day.
After the monks who came to perform the mission of the alliance arrived, the village chief quickly came forward and saluted respectfully before carefully expressing their thoughts.
After waiting for a moment of anxiety, he heard the monk say.
"Okay, I'll report back and see what the seniors say."
The village chief immediately breathed a long sigh and bowed.
"Thank you, Xiansheng."
However, after the incident was reported, there was no replies. After ten days, the village chief and others did not dare to ask again. They could only think that this side ignored their proposal.
That's the immortal chief. Even if he doesn't agree, is it necessary to notify them?
Just when they had almost forgotten about this, one day, the crystal tower suddenly lit up, and a square piece of black iron was teleported over, and a large word was displayed.
