Chapter 49 Rent
It is better to say that it is a map, a beautiful picture. Moreover, it is also a three-dimensional picture scroll, with mountains and rivers, lofty mountains and mountains, all of which are lifelike.
In some places, a small flag is planted, which means that it is already a land with a lord, and no one else is allowed to touch it. However, because the Dao Source has only been open for a hundred years, most of the places are still borderlands, and there are most places for them to choose from.
The five masters and apprentices looked at this huge picture scroll intently, and several apprentices were already dumbfounded, deeply sighing for the magic of creation. And Tuoba Pifu watched and judged.
"How has this place changed, didn't there used to be a city in that place, why is there no one now, and how does it feel a little smaller than before? ”
And so on, but the memories in my eyes are getting stronger and stronger.
This picture scroll completely presents the current source of the Dao.
The source of the Dao is huge, with a radius of hundreds of millions of miles, and on the whole, it is a blue ocean, in this vast ocean, sometimes dotted with islands, and there are seven behemoths in the archipelago, which are called the seven heavens.
These seven heavens are Changrong, Tengsheng, Fandu, Donghua, Haoting, Xiule, and Daluo.
Each of the seven heavens has its own wonders, and when the five masters and apprentices looked at them one by one, they only felt that all of them were very good, and all of them were not good enough, so they were a little hesitant for a while.
Suddenly, Tuoba Puff sighed lightly, stretched out his hand and pointed to a place, and asked, "Where is this, why don't I have an impression?"
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and there was a place where Da Luotian was, and it was in the extreme north, where there was snow for thousands of miles, but there were three thousand miles of blue waves in it, and in the vast smoke waves, a ten-mile island loomed, and in the thousands of miles of snow, the island was full of peach blossoms, and it was blooming at the moment.
The five masters and apprentices fell in love with that place at first sight, and sincerely hoped to settle on that island, so they looked at each other and reached a tacit understanding.
Tuoba Pifu smiled and pointed to the place, and said to the old man, "I want the three-thousand-mile lake." ”
The old man said with a smile: "Brother, good vision, that place is indeed the best place in the Dao Source, but it was naturally formed between the evolution of heaven and earth this time. The 3,000-mile lake is not an ordinary lake, its name is weak water, and the feathers do not float, and it cannot be crossed. The small island is called Peach Blossom Island, the island is not very surprising, but the peach trees on the island are amazing, its name is the peach tree, one day sprouts, the millennium flower season, three days of fruit ripeness. The peaches that bear fruit are not only delicious, but also contain the power of the origin, supplemented by cultivation, which can turn decay into magic, and it is indeed a rare treasure tree. ”
The more Tuoba Pifu and a few apprentices heard this, the more delighted they became, and they were a little impatient, and they were eager to go over immediately and decorate their new home.
So, Tuoba Pifu urged: "Good place, I want it, give me the token quickly." ”
The so-called token is actually a title deed, which proves the ownership of the place, as long as the token is obtained, it means that the place belongs to him.
According to Tuoba Pifu's thoughts, the old man is not a stingy person, and he should not hesitate to give him the token, but unexpectedly, the old man did not immediately take out the token, but smiled and said to Tuoba Pifu: "Hehe, brother, don't worry, you can want a token, but now the rules have changed, if you want to settle down in the Daoyuan, you must pay rent." ”
Tuoba Pifu was stunned for a long time, looked at the old man incredulously, and said in amazement: "What, you asked me for rent, what is our relationship, and you actually asked me for rent?"
The old man nodded with a smile and said, "This is the result of the seven of us discussing together, and it was unanimously approved, and no one can be an exception." ”
"I'm my own. "Tuoba Pifu is in a hurry.
The old man said: "You can't do it yourself, you can't make a circle without rules, you are right, brother." ”
Tuoba Pifu was about to refute, but the fat man suddenly said: "Master, it's okay, isn't it just money, disciple has it." ”
Before Tuoba Pifu could react, the fat man shook his hand, and a golden mountain had appeared in the center of the main hall, looking golden and not spectacular.
The fat man tilted his head proudly, waiting for the master's praise, but in exchange, it was Tuoba's fists and kicks and angry reprimand: "You idiot, you don't want to think about it, can the rent of this place still be the rent of the mortal world, hurry up and put it away for me, it's embarrassing." ”
The fat man didn't know why, so he asked, "It's not a mortal gold coin, what is it?"
The old man smiled, palmed his hand, took out a crystal clear, purple bead, handed it to the fat man with a smile, and explained to him: "This thing is the currency of the Dao Yuan, called the Spirit Bead." ”
As soon as I started it, I suddenly felt that this bead was extraordinary, because, holding this bead, the mana in the body actually had a tendency to increase, and the mind was calm, and the distracting thoughts disappeared. The fat man knew that this was definitely a treasure to assist in cultivation.
The fat man felt it, and then handed the spirit bead to Tuoba Huai, and several apprentices took turns to feel it, and they all felt that this spirit bead was mysterious.
Tuoba Pifu ignored the curiosity of several apprentices, and continued to say to the old man angrily: "How can I still have spirit beads, didn't my spirit beads all contribute at the beginning? ”
The old man was indifferent to Tuoba Pifu's rogue rhetoric, and said: "Rules are rules, and they can never be changed. ”
After saying this, he saw that Tuoba Pifu was about to go crazy, so he hurriedly continued: "This is what Tiangang Star Lin Lan said. ”
As soon as he heard his wife's name, Tuoba Pifu immediately wilted, sat down on the chair again, and said weakly: "Say, how is the rent calculated?"
The old man replied with a smile: "They are all their own people, so they will naturally give their brothers a friendship price, brother, how about a million spirit beads a year?"
When Tuoba Pifu heard this, he immediately jumped up and shouted: "A million a year, old fellow, why don't you go and rob it?"
The old man seemed to have expected it, and said unhurriedly: "It's really a good place you have chosen, brother, that place can definitely be opened and established, think about it, if you rent it to a sect, there are so many disciples and grandchildren in the family, and it is enough for one person to contribute a little." ”
"But, just the five of us masters and apprentices, where are we going to get you a million spirit beads a year? ”
The old man was noncommittal and said, "So, brother, you choose another place, there are many places with 10,000 a year." ”
Tuoba Pifu's eyes widened, stood up, looked at the expectant eyes of several apprentices, and knew that he must not change places, otherwise, although his dignity as a teacher would not be lost, it would also be greatly reduced, so he said toughly: "If you don't change it, I will decide on that place, isn't it just a million spirit beads a year?" ”
The old man smiled: "That's a good feeling, brother will pay a hundred years first, I will open a rental account for you, and deduct 100 million spirit beads every hundred years, so brother must ensure that the spirit beads in this account are sufficient." ”
Tuoba Pifu's eyes are red, once he has been handed over for a hundred years, that is 100 million spirit beads, but he is penniless now.
So, Tuoba Pifu gritted his teeth and said to the old man, "Can you owe it first?"
Unexpectedly, the old man flatly refused: "No, this precedent cannot be opened." ”
"Old fellow, you can't be so ruthless, right?"
"Hehe, this is the rule set by my brother and sister, and I can't help it. ”
Tuoba Pifu's teeth itched with hatred, and he said angrily: "You go to that mother-in-law and ask her to give me a hundred years' rent first." ”
The old man smiled and said yes, so he closed his eyes, opened them after a while, and said to Tuoba Pifu with a smile: "My brother and sister said to let you figure it out by yourself, but she won't give it." ”
Tuoba Pifu's face turned red, and Tuoba Huai gently patted Tuoba Pifu's arm and signaled, "Master, don't forget it." ”
Seeing that the master was embarrassed, several other disciples also said that they could rent a small place to live in first, and then change to Peach Blossom Island when they had money.
But Tuoba Pifu was stubborn, and he wanted to rent Peach Blossom Island, and finally, the two strings of Buddha beads that gritted his teeth were placed in front of the old man, and he said to the old man viciously: "Look at how much these two strings of Buddha beads can be worth?"
These two strings of Buddha beads were snatched from Lin Huang's hands when they came to the city in the east, and they were given to Tuoba Huai, one string each for tea and tea, and a string for the fat man, and later received Huangpu, and gave Huangpu a string, and now there are four strings in his hand, which is something that was made from the Bodhi tree, the holy tree of the Buddha world, and Tuoba Pifu took out two strings, and estimated that he should be able to sell a hundred million spirit beads. In fact, Tuoba Pifu wanted to sell the things that he took out when he came out of Hangu, as long as he sold one, he didn't have to worry about money, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it, those things are the treasures of those guys, and he can use them himself, but if he really sells them, he is afraid that those guys will come to him to fight hard, and he is not afraid of them, but after all, his face is not good. Therefore, Tuoba Pifu pondered it for a while and finally took out these two strings of Buddhist beads.
The old man looked at the two strings of Buddhist beads handed over by Tuoba Pifu, and saw the source at a glance, so he smiled and said, "This thing is okay, brother, wait a minute." ”
Saying this, he came to a Dan furnace in the center of the main hall, and threw two strings of Buddhist beads into it. The moment he threw it in, a white flame appeared out of thin air, instantly enveloping the two strings of Buddha beads.
This Dan furnace is amazing, its name is the heaven and earth oven, it is the core of the human world, and its function is to refine all things and supplement the human world itself.
This heaven and earth oven is controllable, for example, at the moment, the old man threw the Buddha bead into it, but only let it be refined and generate the spirit bead, but did not let him devour it.
Of course, in the process of refining, there is always some origin to be absorbed, and you can't always do loss-making transactions.
Visible to the naked eye, the two strings of Buddhist beads began to melt and decompose, and after a while, they disappeared without a trace, and the white flame also quietly disappeared.
At this time, the inside of the Dan furnace was empty, but a small storage bag fell out of thin air at the base of the Dan furnace.
What was contained in the storage bag was the spirit beads decomposed from the two strings of Buddhist beads, but I don't know how much was decomposed.
