Chapter 214 Everything in the world can be measured by value.
Liang Yan: "It looks like you are planning to go to Kunwu Village? But I heard that there don't seem to be many people there anymore. I wonder what your plans are when you go to Kunwu Village?"
Facing Liang Yan's inquiry, the duck driver just smiled and said.
"My purpose is similar to yours, but I'm just collecting ducks. I won't hinder what you want to do, but I hope you won't hinder what I want to do."
After listening to the other party's answer, the scene fell into silence for a while.
When he didn't get the answer he wanted, Liang Yan set his sights on Zhongli.
"Mr. Zhongli is not an ordinary person. Can I ask why you follow us?"
Looking at the fire in front of him, Zhongli replied softly.
"I'm looking for something. I may be able to find what I want by following you. And I also want to see how kind-hearted the person parasitized by the other side flower is, and how will the people around him be affected?"
Early the next morning, Zhongli and others arrived at Kunwu Village.
The Kunwu Village in front of me was full of people lying under sheds. There was no hope for the future in the eyes of these people, and some were just confused.
Perhaps these people themselves don’t know what they are living for in this world.
Liang Yan also noticed the doubts in Zhong Li's heart, so he explained to himself on the sidelines.
"This village was not like this before. Due to the ice jade, the price of fire cicadas has soared.
One fire cicada slough can be exchanged for one month's rations for a person. It is precisely for this reason that people in the village do not go to farming, but go looking for fire cicada sloughs.
However, fire cicadas are not like crops. If they are gone, they can be planted again. As the demand increases, fire cicadas become less and less.
Although the price has been increasing, people can rarely find fire cicadas anymore."
Zhongli looked around and suddenly discovered that a young man not far away was exuding a strange energy fluctuation.
At this moment, Ding Guo, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke.
"We found the person we were looking for!"
But before the three of them could step forward, a voice suddenly came from the roof nearby.
"Did you find a flower on the other side? I just heard, you found a flower on the other side!"
When they heard the name Bianhua, those who were lying under the thatched shed immediately became energetic.
They ran out of the thatched hut and looked at Zhongli and his group with greed in their eyes.
"The Flower of the Other Shore belongs to our village. Hand over the Flower of the Other Shore! Hand over the Flower of the Other Shore!"
Dozens of people surrounded the three people, and it looked like they might lose control and rush forward at any time.
Liang Yan looked at the people who were losing their minds and noticed something was wrong.
"It should be that person who moved his hands and feet."
Ding Guo looked around and suddenly spotted a familiar person among the crowd.
"It's not important. The most important thing is to solve the immediate problem."
The crowd around them gradually shrank, and the space between Zhongli and the three of them became more and more crowded.
Just when Ding Guo was about to take action, the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook, and chains made of rocks suddenly stretched out from the earth.
Under Zhongli's control, more than a dozen chains pierced the chests of the dozens of people surrounding them in an instant.
Then the land surged, and the chains, carrying the bodies of dozens of people, were submerged into the liquid-like earth.
When the corpse is swallowed up by the earth, the liquid earth becomes hard again.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ding Guo looked at Zhongli in front of him in disbelief.
Even though he had gone through a lot, it was hard to imagine that Zhongli, who had been gentle and gentle all the way, would have such a ruthless side.
Zhongli: "What's wrong?"
Zhongli turned to look at the surprised Ding Guo, and Ding Guo saw a look of calmness in Zhongli's eyes.
The surprised Ding Guo saw Zhongli's gaze and instantly understood. Those dozens of people just now might not even be considered human beings in Zhongli's eyes.
It is precisely for this reason that even if he kills dozens of people instantly, there will be no other emotions in Zhongli's eyes.
As if aware of Ding Guo's inner activities, Zhongli spoke softly.
"They have no hope of living. Even if they survive, they are just zombies. Rather than letting them live to influence their surroundings, it is better to end their suffering directly."
Facing Zhongli's answer, Ding Guo couldn't help but ask.
"What is this? We are here to save people, not to kill!"
"Dingo!"
Liang Yan pulled Ding Guo's sleeve to signal him not to continue talking.
But Ding Guo looked at Zhongli firmly, waiting for his answer.
"Everyone has their own value. In my eyes, they have no value anymore. So whether to kill or not, there is actually not much difference.
The reason why we want to kill them is simply because they hinder our actions. They chose this path themselves and cannot blame others."
Ding Guo: "Their value should not be decided by you!"
Zhong Li looked at Ding Guo with stubborn eyes and said softly.
"The value of the weak is determined by the strong! And that strong person is me. If I say they have value, they have value. If I say they have no value, they are worthless.
You should know this truth better than me, because in your eyes, the value of the Bana Flower host is lower than that of ordinary people.
Otherwise, you wouldn’t spend so much time searching for Higanbana. Everything in this world is valuable, and the reason why some things are priceless is simply because you don’t have enough chips.”
After Zhongli finished speaking, he walked towards the road that the young man had left just now.
Looking at Zhong Li's back, Ding Guo looked at Liang Yan beside him.
"what to do?"
Liang Yan shook his head.
"Let's take it one step at a time. At least for now, he has not affected our actions."
Ten minutes later, the three of them found the young man who had just left. They saw that the young man was plowing in the fields, and the fields were filled with crops that had sprouted buds.
Liang Yan: "Hello, my name is Liang Yan, and this is my apprentice named Ding Guo. The other one is our companion, Mr. Zhongli."
Looking at the three people in front of him, the young man was stunned for a moment. But he quickly said his name.
"My name is Xiaowen, what can I do for you?"
"Ahem!"
Before Xiaowen finished speaking, he heard coughing in the hut.
Xiaowen heard the sound and immediately ran to the hut.
Seeing this, the three of them also entered the hut together.
The room was still shabby, with tools thrown aside everywhere.
There is a stove on one side of the room, and herbs are cooking on the stove.
Liang Yan uncovered the cloth covering the medicine pot, looked at the boiled herbs and shook his head.
"These herbs have already been boiled and become white. There is no use in cooking them anymore."
After hearing this, Xiaowen, who was sitting on the bed supporting his father, said reproachfully.
