619. Bounty
And we are in the sea city, is one of the three major city-states of Elysium, this side represents the place where the Buddha of the Burning Lamp is sheltered, the three Buddhas seem to be one, in fact, they are also in charge of different places, now the giant statue of the Buddha of the Burning Lamp, is erected in the center of the city, it is a huge fountain, and there is a huge lotus sculpture in the center of the fountain, and the statue of the Buddha of the Burning Lamp is sitting on the lotus.
Some people may say that those who enter the Elysium are good and good people, but where there are people, there will be good and evil, and where there are good and evil, there will also be good and bad.
So even in Elysium, there are wicked people.
As a person, he also has his own evil thoughts, no matter how pure and kind people are, so it is not surprising that there are so many black market merchants here.
The only difference is that the people of Elysium, whether they have Taoism or not, under the blessing of Buddha Qi, their lifespan is endless, but what I am curious about is that thousands of years have passed like this, and there should be many people who have died in various places, but why are there still so few people in Elysium?
Bai Jingjing also said that she didn't know, she said that every once in a while, some people in Elysium would disappear inexplicably, and the people here were called [Shen Yin] who were chosen by the Buddha and then went through reincarnation.
At this point, it is similar to the Heavenly Court, when there was no transfer to the Heavenly Realm, the same was true for the immortals, they would reincarnate to a certain extent, although the title was different, but the actual meaning was similar.
Bai Jingjing gave me a brand, a brand forged of gold, with a Buddha seal on it, Bai Jingjing said, this is an identity card, everyone who dies and comes to Elysium, there will be such a brand, and at the beginning, Bai Jingjing and Ling Aihan worked as maids for a local family for more than half a year before they obtained the identity card, and by the way, they also gave me a piece.
I was ashamed in my heart, I really didn't know how hard they had to go to get this brand, and immediately took the two girls in my arms and said, "These days, you have worked hard. ”
"We originally planned to take more than ten years for you to come back, and since you came here in three days, it was also unexpected to us, but it's good to come, now that the foundation is solid, we are waiting to collect information. Ling'er said.
As soon as Ling'er talked about collecting information, she told me that there are many places to collect information nowadays, such as Buddhist temples, which are equivalent to municipal governments, which are managed by some bodhisattvas and arhats, such as Linhai City, which is said to be responsible for the noble bodhisattvas.
The monks here are very different from the outside, the monks in the mortal world can't eat meat, can't get close to women, can't kill, that's all added by the Central Plains later, it's the ruler's efforts to weaken the people's sense of resistance.
The purpose of not eating meat and not killing is to reduce the people's psychology of struggle, and without struggle, there will be no rebellion, and not approaching women is to reduce the crime rate of the people.
Here, the rules of Elysium are closer to the rules of Tianzhu, for example, women are allowed to enter and leave the temple, which is to let the monks also have emotional belonging, they do not have those miscellaneous troubles, they can practice wholeheartedly, and the same is true of the Buddhist temple, the women who live in the temple have a name, called the Holy Maiden.
And the saints generally have their own husbands, but they don't hold weddings, just silently together, when Bai Jingjing came here, the monks also said that the two daughters can enter the temple to become saints, choose their favorite person.
Of course, the two women also refused, and the refusal was very happy, this time Bai Jingjing told me that the recent assessment is again, that is, to become a practitioner in the monastery, these people enjoy great rights, of course I don't want to enter the monastery, because I don't want to accept the bondage, so I chose another way, that is, to buy news.
And buying news is the guild, in the guild is the subordinate of the Buddhist monastery, is the place to issue tasks, people in addition to their own work in the city, through the guild, to obtain tasks, and then do tasks to hand over tasks, and finally get their own bounties or news.
Bai Jingjing said that the way they have always survived has been to go to tasks and get bounties to buy food through such bounties, but now the big tasks cannot be solved, and they have been interrupted by some organizations, and they can only accept some slightly smaller tasks.
Of course, in this way, money can't make much money, this is a double-edged knife, and it is also quite helpless.
I came to a rental house where Bai Jingjing and the others were, and found that when I went in, there were many small rooms, and at this time, Ling Waihan's face was a little ruddy, and she took my hand and said, "The rooms here are very special, and they are very noisy at night...... It's all beautiful women who work here, so we don't usually go out at night......"
"Work?" I wondered.
Bai Jingjing said directly: "It's just selling meat, after all, everything in Elysium is very good, the only bad thing is that men are inferior to women, women have no status here, although they won't starve to death, but women want to make money, it's much more difficult than men." ”
As soon as she said this, I felt distressed: "It seems that you guys are having a hard time here." ”
"It's nothing, it's just a little bit of saving, and we wanted to move out of here, but ...... Where can we go?" she said with a wry smile.
Upstairs, it is a small house of 60 square meters, although it looks very simple, but it is very clean, such as the windows are very clean, you can see the opposite side almost at a glance, and there is no dust on the walls, which is like the style of the two.
"I'll make you a pot of tea, you can rest. Bai Jingjing said.
But I didn't let her go, and immediately pulled her and Ling Aihan into my arms, and I said, "Thank you for your hard work, I really didn't expect you to have such a hard time here." ”
"It's okay...... Bai Jingjing said with a ruddy face, and at this time, together with Ling Aihan, he hugged me with a full embrace.
I said in my heart that when I went to the Heavenly Realm, my luck was also very good, everything started from Master's Seven Star Hall, Master paved the way for me, and grew up under his care step by step.
However, when we come to this Buddha realm, we have to come over everything step by step, which is a lot of grinding.
It seemed that I was in pain, and the tears of the two women fell and hit me, making my heart very painful.
You can imagine how many grievances they have suffered these days, but they have been waiting for me and waiting for me to come over.
After eating a little bit, Bai Jingjing was at home, and Ling Aihan went to the guild with me, and she had to wear a veil when she went out, because Ling Aihan was so beautiful, and sometimes beauty was also a burden, because of her appearance, she didn't cause much trouble.
Everyone has a love for beauty, even if it is Elysium, it also advocates beauty, so those men in Elysium also covet the beauty of the two women very much, if it weren't for the two women's unique skills, it is estimated that they would have been unable to parry, which also makes me feel that the original choice was right, I understand the ability of Ling Aihan and Bai Jingjing very well, and ordinary people can't bully them.
And when I came to the guild at this time, I found that there was a bounty hall here, which contained various bounty tasks, and I thought to myself, now that there is one more person's ration, the first step should be to make money, so I immediately took on a task.
It was a monk who issued the task, he looked at me and said with a smile: "This is a prefecture-level task, we are divided into four kinds of difficulty of heaven and earth Xuanhuang here, this prefecture-level task is generally dangerous, you and your woman are not fragrant too simple, this is not to go to the park to play, if you are not careful, you will die!"
Of course, the risk of doing bounty tasks is death, and if you die in the Buddha realm, you really can't live, and generally few people come out to make rewards, that's the reason.
Those who can be in the Buddha realm, as long as they are a little low-key, they can eat, drink and wait for death, after all, it is impossible for the Buddha realm to starve to death, but I also have my own plans now, so I said to the monk: "Thank you for your care, but I have thought clearly, I plan to give it a try!"
The man smiled and stretched out his hand: "A copper coin, this is a deposit." ”
Here, the copper coin was the currency of the transaction, and Ling Aihan immediately took one out of his belt and handed it to the monk, who knocked a chapter and handed me the letter of appointment.
