Chapter 257: Controlling the Population?
I opened my eyes in a daze, and there was still a misty light around me.
Slowly getting up, Ye Changan looked at his feet, but saw that there was also a dazzling white light cluster under his feet.
"This... Where is this?"
Looking around, in addition to the white light, not far ahead, there were dozens of thin men and women who had lost their vitality sitting cross-legged.
Only, the old man closest to Ye Changan slowly opened his eyes.
He wore a black robe, and the robe was rusted with golden auspicious cloud lines, but the long dry and mixed hair, and his withered countenance, all said:
He's been stuck here for a long, long time.
"Senpai, I..."
"Needless to say, sit down and die. β
Ye Changan: "Β·Β·Β·Β·"
"Dare to ask where the senior is here?" Ye Changan sat down cross-legged and frowned: "How long has the senior been here?"
"Leave?" The old man roared angrily, "Liars, all liars!"
"Whatever you say about ascending to the immortal realm, it's all a liar!"
Ye Changan was completely confused, it stands to reason that he shouldn't.
"The old man is the Supreme Elder of the DJI Empire!"
The old man's eyes were sharp, and his momentum was even stronger than Ye Changan's.
Ye Changan's brows furrowed even deeper, and the information about the DJI Empire appeared in his mind instantly, this old man turned out to be a person from the previous civilization!
"Impossible!" Ye Changan suddenly thought of something, since it was said that a civilization on the earth was offended by people outside the world because of the monk's departure, then, that monk must have left here.
Otherwise, how can he offend others?
Ye Changan no longer hesitated, and frantically rushed into the misty light group.
However, he couldn't see anything further away except for something within five meters of himself.
On the contrary, as Ye Changan continued to move, more dead shadows appeared under his feet.
Ye Changan only felt a chill in his back, what is this space that exceeds his cognition?
According to scientists on Earth, space more powerful than three-dimensional space should be real.
Regret it!
Why didn't you become a scientist?
When I was a child, someone asked Ye Changan, what do you want to be when you grow up?
Scientist!
"When the book is used, you hate less!" Ye Changan returned to the old man with a bitter face, "Senior, how big is this place?"
"I don't know. β
"Senior, you... Do you know about the four-dimensional space?"
The old man frowned, "What space?"
"Four-dimensional space!"
"Four-dimensional what?"
"Senior, I shouldn't have asked," Ye Changan sat down cross-legged and smashed the ground hard, but found that there was nothing.
You can stand here, but when you hit it, it's like nothing.
"Could it be that the sights of this world cannot be seen with the eyes?"
"Could it be that this is a special place, and you have to walk a long way to leave?"
Ye Changan continued to verify his guesses one by one.
The result is naturally fruitless.
Xuanjizi just watched playfully, and didn't open his mouth to remind himself that he had tried eight hundred times a long time ago.
As everyone knows, all of this is man-made.
Somewhere in the world, in a quaint temple.
An old man in a Taoist robe waved his hand violently and sighed: "After blocking the passage for 100,000 years, it can be regarded as completely controlling the number of people.
Ye Changan, who was worried, suddenly noticed that something was wrong, and the surrounding misty light suddenly began to dissipate, and the pulling force came again.
Xuanjizi screamed, stood up suddenly, and said excitedly: "Boy, what did you do?"
Ye Changan was even more surprised, could it be that it was really because of his complaint just now?
Alas, there is no time to explain.
The child was pulled away in an instant.
When he opened his eyes again, Ye Changan had already landed in an ancient pavilion.
The old man's mystery is not here.
This pavilion is boxy, the side is no more than five meters long, the ground is paved with bluestone slabs, and there is a white light 'wellhead' in the middle.
In addition to this, on the four vermilion pillars of the gazebo, separate sentences are written.
Sentence 1: Welcome to the Nether
Sentence 2: Don't cause trouble
Sentence 3: Monogamy is practiced in this realm
Sentence 4: No more than two children may be born to each couple
Ye Changan: "Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
Walking to the edge of the pavilion, there is a high peak, and there are four stone paths around the pavilion, spiraling downward.
The white clouds are dozens of meters lower than the pavilion.
Farther away, mountain peaks stretch away, clouds and mist linger in between.
It is really a fairyland, which makes people feel refreshed and happy, and they can't distinguish between southeast and northwest.
"I can't see anything around here, where are you going?" Ye Changan shook his head helplessly.
People are strangers in a foreign land, Ye Changan sat on the edge of the pavilion, thought twice, looked at the stone road on the right, and slowly walked down the mountain.
Slowly, Ye Changan walked into the clouds, and further down, his vision finally became clear.
But after seeing it clearly, Ye Changan was stunned.
At the foot of this mountain, there is a continuous city, looking from a distance, there are many pedestrians on the street, wearing ancient costumes, exactly the same as the ancient city played on TV.
Ye Changan frowned, and suddenly had a bold guess, could it be that the so-called parallel time and space are bounded by time?
"Could it be that I really crossed the time portal and returned to the ancient times?"
With a full of questions, Ye Changan looked back, but found that above the clouds, the pavilion had disappeared.
"It's magical. β
Ye Changan walked down the stone road, and when he was halfway up the mountain, he bumped into a pair of young men and women wearing festive clothes.
When the young man and woman saw Ye Changan, their faces were full of doubts.
"You went up to Mount Kinabalu alone?"
Ye Changan nodded, hugged his fists and said, "Congratulations, happy newlywed." β
"Tongxi," the man smiled and waved his hand, pulling the woman past Ye Chang'an.
Ye Changan shook his head and continued to walk down the mountain, and when he was about to reach the foot of the mountain, he met two officials with big knives at their waists.
"You came down from Mount Kinabalu alone?"
Ye Changan frowned, why did he ask himself this sentence?
"Have you seen a couple of men and women who ran away from marriage?"
Ye Changan nodded, "I've seen it, and I've gone up the mountain." β
After being forcibly asked to go up the mountain by these two officials, Ye Changan finally understood what had happened.
The man and woman originally had their own marriage contracts, but they cherished each other.
Therefore, the two agreed to escape the marriage together, as long as they escaped to the top of the sacred mountain, and bluntly stated that they were willing to marry under the witness of the 'God of Marriage', the marriage would be completed.
After all, no one dares to be disrespectful to the god of marriage.
In addition, I have never heard of a person going up the mountain alone.
Looking at the bare mountaintop, Ye Changan frowned, where did the pavilion he saw when he came?
"Boy, where are you?"
Ye Changan looked at the two officials, shook his head and said, "I don't have a home." β
"Orphans?"
The two officials glanced at each other, and both saw the excitement in each other's eyes.
"That's an illegal resident," an official frowned, "Have you ever practiced martial arts?"
"I've practiced," Ye Changan nodded.
Hearing this, the two officials instantly retreated, pulled out the long knife at their waists, and aimed it at Ye Changan.
"What strength?"
"Strength?" Ye Changan frowned, "Break the void." β
"What's broken?" the official frowned, pointing his long knife at a stone slab on the ground, "You smash it with your fist and see if you can break it." β
This slate was only two centimeters thick, Ye Changan grinned.
"I didn't want to pretend to be between ACs. β
I saw Ye Changan throw on his robe, squat down calmly, and gently slammed his fist into the stone slab.
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound.
Ye Changan looked at the stone slab that was still intact, frowned, and increased his strength.
Finally, after punching with all his might, it can be regarded as breaking the slate.
"Just an ordinary man, I dare to say that I have practiced martial arts. β
The two officials shook their heads, their faces full of ridicule, "Since you are not a martial arts practitioner and you don't have a household registration, you still have to go to the government with us." β
Ye Changan was full of surprise, and he thought for a long time before he figured it out.
It's not that my own strength has weakened, it's that the stones in this world are too hard.
In other words, anything in this world is harder.
Ye Changan is just a mortal to this world, but on the earth, that is Nanbowan.
Perhaps, the tofu of this world, when it is brought to the earth, may not be able to be bitten.
Is there tofu in this world?
Ye Changan was powerless to resist and was escorted across the street by two officials.
The people around seemed to be accustomed to this scene, but there were several young girls who had not yet come out of the cabinet and smiled at Ye Changan with a blushing face.
"You kid is delicate and tender-skinned, I'm afraid it's not the young master of which family is here to entertain our brothers, right?"
Ye Changan frowned and shook his head, "Two big brothers, may I ask, what will happen after I go to the official mansion?"
"Look at your performance!"
An official picked up a large cake at the nearby biscuit stall and stuffed it in his mouth, and continued walking.
Ye Changan stood still, frowned, and said, "Eat big bread, don't you give money?"
"I've never paid for flatbread at this stall!" the official rolled his eyes, "What, not convinced?"
Ye Changan looked at the stall owner and saw that it was a woman in a blue cloth dress, and he was even more angry in his heart.
"You are still an official errand, taking the lead in eating the overlord's meal, I really don't know where the king's law is!"
Another official glanced at Ye Changan, picked up a big cake, and left.
"What's the matter, don't go quickly!"
As soon as Ye Changan's temper came up, no one could pull it!
"Eldest sister, don't worry, I will definitely ask you for an explanation!"
Ye Changan rolled up his sleeves, although his cultivation is equivalent to 0 now, he has good combat experience, and it is not a problem to put down these two officials.
Unexpectedly, the woman hid her face and smiled, "Big brother, you are really laughing to death, what kind of money do my men give when they eat their own flatbread?"
"Own man?"
Ye Changan looked at the woman's face, swept it over the faces of the two officials, and muttered, "This doesn't look like it." β
Listen, is this Nima the words of a man?
Do husband and wife still look alike?
The darker-skinned official pushed Ye Changan angrily, "Don't leave quickly, what to do with you, the official has his own plans!"
Soon, Ye Changan followed the two officials into a place called "Pingshui County Ya".
said that it was the county government, but in addition to the big yellow dog tied at the door, there were only the latter two officials left.
As soon as they stood left and right in the hall, they saw a middle-aged official man wearing a green official mansion and a dark green official hat walking out.
This official man should not have woken up, sleepy-eyed, and the buttons of the official uniform were not buttoned, revealing the white lining inside.
"Who is kneeling in the hall?"
Ye Changan pursed his lips, "My lord, I didn't kneel." β
"It's okay if you don't kneel," the old man yawned and stroked his goatee, "what did you do?"
"How do I know what I have done?" Ye Changan couldn't help laughing, "Master Guan, I was just passing by, and I was arrested by two officials. β
"Master, he has no share, he should be an outcast. β
"Wanderer?" the official master instantly came to his senses, "Have you ever learned martial arts?"
"No," the official smiled, "Master, I think it's better to send it directly to the frontier." β
"Is he going to be cannon fodder?"
The official frowned, "Have you ever studied?"
"Graduated from college. β
"What is a university?" the official looked at him, "Don't talk nonsense." β
"Is there any silver?"
Ye Changan shook his head, "I just arrived, and I didn't bring anything." β
"Come on, send it to the side..."
"I'll heal!"
"Heal?" the official yawned again, brushing away some of his loose hair, revealing his withered yellow skin, dark eye circles, and red and swollen eye bags.
"If I'm not mistaken, Master Guan, you should have a stubborn illness, andΒ·Β· This stubborn disease is not suitable to be talked about with others. β
Hearing this, the official master was stunned, then sat up straight, waved at the two officials, and sent them away, and then tentatively spoke.
"Tell me in detail, Master Ben has no problem with that, but I have a friend... He's been asking me to find a solution. β
