Chapter 154: The Other Four
"I wonder what the sect leader's problem is? I'm still young, and I'm not a good learner, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help much. ”
In order to save trouble, Tang Mocai didn't mind belittling himself.
"Miss Tang, don't be presumptuous, the medicine worm scam of the previous sect chief is also thanks to the girl's ingenuity so that the villagers of Wuxi Village will no longer be blinded by it.
Now, although the villagers of Wuxi Village seem to be living in an orderly manner on the surface, they have no enthusiasm for life at all, and they are like robots every day to complete tasks and get food, and there is no hope on their faces.
If this continues, Wuxi Village will decline sooner or later. I wonder if Miss Tang has any good solutions? ”
The melancholy on Guo Mingyi's face does not seem to be a fake, after he took the position, although he better guaranteed everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation.
But after learning that the medicine worm was a scam, everyone's original appearance of running to do tasks and working hard to live disappeared all of a sudden, and everyone's faces were lifeless, unwilling to cultivate, and they had to get by, as if they had earned it by living one more day.
Guo Mingyi didn't understand why he was doing better, but he couldn't compare to that scam, which made him very frustrated.
Tang Mo heard his words and knew in her heart, no wonder she felt that everyone she saw was like a walking dead as soon as she entered Wuxi Village, it turned out to be like this.
"Originally, everyone worked hard to hunt alien beasts, just to exchange for medicine insects, in their hearts, this is like an elixir, which can let them live, even if they know in their hearts that it may not be reliable, but there is a hope.
Although the current life is stable, everyone knows that it is only temporary, and in the event of an injury or any accident, they do not even have the slightest ability to resist.
If there is not even a little light to be seen in the life of suffering, then where will people have the strength to continue to move forward? ”
Tang Mo's words made Guo Mingyi fall into deep thought, after all, no matter how capable and talented he is, he is only a young man in his twenties, and many things cannot be seen clearly quickly.
He has always been caught in the cycle of why he is doing so well for everyone, but no one appreciates it, and he has never thought about why.
Perhaps it was because of the prejudice against the sect leader of the medicine insect that he never thought about empathy from the perspective of the villagers.
It wasn't until now that he realized that he didn't have to work hard to do everything well.
"So, what's the solution?"
Guo Mingyi raised his head and looked at Tang Mo with hope.
This look made Tang Mo feel pressured.
"You are the sect leader, naturally there will be a way, what can I do?"
Tang Mo didn't think he liked to meddle in things, and what he said just now was just a feeling.
She didn't bother to help him clean up the mess.
Then there was a period of silence, and Tang Mo silently looked up at the sky and continued to pretend to be dead.
"When I was a child, I heard my grandfather say that there are three paintings in the ancestral hall of the patriarch, which are things that have been passed down from generation to generation in Wuxi Village.
Grandpa said that one day in the future, there will be a powerful person who will take it away and play a big role.
On the day I took over the ancestral hall, I searched many times from the inside out, but there were no three paintings that my grandfather said, maybe they had been taken away by the powerful man. ”
Guo Mingyi paused and took a sip of the tea that had cooled down in his hand.
"My grandfather also said that there were not just three such paintings, but according to the ancestors, there were seven in total. Originally, all of them were in Wuxi Village, but due to various reasons, four of them have been left behind. But even so, the approximate location of those four paintings is still recorded by the ancestors.
I wonder if Miss Tang is interested in the location of the other four paintings? ”
Guo Mingyi is very smart, and Tang Mo likes his cleverness.
Four more pictures?
When taking the pearl of spiritual power, Tang Mo used a picture.
If there are four pictures left, wouldn't that just correspond to the remaining four beads?
She's not just interested, it's imperative.
Guo Mingyi and Tang Mo both knew the fact that the other party knew that the three paintings in the ancestral hall were in the late Tang Dynasty, and Guo Mingyi used the remaining four paintings as an exchange condition to solve the problem.
"Sect Chief Guo, I have a solution, but I don't know if it's feasible."
Tang Mo immediately sat upright and took out the look of treating a big customer, and became serious.
…………………………………………………………
Tang Mo stayed in the ancestral hall for a long time, and finally Guo Mingyi personally sent her out.
When she arrived at Xiaohu's house, Xiaohu's family of four had been waiting for her for a long time.
"Girl, our little peach will trouble you in the future."
It seems that Xiao Tao has already agreed with the family about going with her, and as soon as she saw Tang Mo walk in, Xiao Tao's parents knelt down directly for her.
This kneeling is not only to let Tang Mo take care of Xiao Tao more in the future, but more importantly, because Tang Mo cured the illness of their favorite daughter.
Everyone was ready for Xiao Tao to be tortured and die in bed, but no one expected that Xiao Tao's fate would be good and she could meet such a great benefactor.
"What are you doing here, get up."
Tang Mo couldn't bear this, and quickly helped Xiao Tao's parents up.
"Xiao Tao wants to go with you This thing told us, this child has been smart since he was a child, we have always known that Wuxi Village is a small place, and he has wronged this child by marrying and having children in this life. We all supported her to go out and see, to see the world, to explore a little. ”
Xiao Tao's mother held Xiao Tao's hand, her eyes full of reluctance.
But they think clearly, if they stay in Wuxi Village all their lives and have no interest, if they can, who doesn't want to go out and have a look? As parents, they cannot stand in the way of their children.
"Sister, you can rest assured and go with your life-saving benefactor, my parents have me at home, if you don't have a good time outside in the future, come back at any time."
Xiaohu's words undoubtedly gave Xiao Tao another reassurance.
With the support of Xiao Tao's whole family, Tang Mo was also a lot more relieved, otherwise she would always have a sense of guilt for abducting and selling other people's children.
"I still have some things to do here tomorrow morning, you guys rest first, just pack up your things in the morning, and we'll leave in the afternoon."
A good night's sleep.
The next day, Tang Mo got up early in the morning and came to the open space in the square that the sect chief said yesterday to make preparations.
Today, all the villagers of Wuxi Village did not go to work, but followed the arrangement of the patriarch to come to the village square for a meeting.
For about half an hour, except for those who were sick in bed and couldn't move, all the people were there, standing in the square densely, with empty eyes.
It doesn't make much of a difference to them whether they go to work or not, have a meeting or go out to do a task.
Walking like a soulless shell is all they have to live now.
