Chapter 238: The sky is about to change
Yuan Ping squatted on a bench, and said without raising his head with a plate of screws, his hands were full of oil, and he said without raising his head:
"You want to save your life, but I want a medicine tester, let's trade fairly, take what we need, we can't talk about helping or not helping, you are not poisoned by my herbs, that is your own blessing and great life, what does it have to do with me?"
Wu Ye smiled:
"Yuan Zhenren, we have been in prison for more than half a year, don't talk in circles anymore, that's right, I'll be your drug tester, you help me hide my identity, we don't owe each other, but these days, you deliberately connived at my cultivation, but I can't see why, it stands to reason that you have accumulated hybrid herbs here for several years, and I have tried them all, and it should be time for the cunning rabbit to die, and when the lackeys cook, you want my life, it was a coughing thing, but instead of doing this, you also gave me more advice, I really can't guess, and I don't bother to guess, just ask you directly, if Yuan Zhenren still has a place to use me, you might as well say it directly, I can helpand will do your best!"
Yuan Ping slowly instigated the soup on his fingers and said:
"Okay, since you've talked about it here, you should tell you the truth in a few days anyway, just say it now, if I'm not mistaken, your strength should have climbed to the peak of Qi training, right?"
Wu Ye nodded.
In fact, if he launched the "Yelang Arrogance" secret method, his strength had already rushed to the foundation building period, and in the cultivation world, he could be regarded as a second-rate master.
However, this hole card is not a last resort. He didn't want to leak it.
Yuan Pingdao:
"What I want you to do is very simple - help me escape from Jingchu Country!"
Wu Ye's eyes widened suddenly, and he lost his voice and said, "Yuan Zhenren, you are really a cultivator of the Heavenly Jin Kingdom?"
As soon as the words came out, I felt that it was wrong, if Yuan Ping was really a cultivator of the Heavenly Jin Kingdom, what was the Tianyuan Sect doing when he came here with great fanfare half a year ago?
Yuan Ping smiled slightly, shook his head and said:
"I'm not a Heavenly Jin Nation monk. I'm not a monk of Jing Chu Kingdom, I'm just an ordinary casual cultivator, and I don't belong to any force. The reason why he stayed in Jing Chu Country was just to use the resources of Jing Chu Country to complete his cultivation! With your help, the herbs I want to concoct are basically concocted, it's time to slip away and go to the place where I am really needed! It's just that I've always been obsessed with spiritual planting techniques, and my own strength is not strong.
Wu Ye blinked his eyes and couldn't help asking:
"Yuan Zhenren. The Tianjin Kingdom and the Jingchu Kingdom are the two great powers of the Pangu Continent, and some of the small countries around them are also vassals of these two big countries, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you will be found by the cultivation circles of the two great powers. Where can you flee to? Are you planning to set sail and become an overseas cultivator?"
Yuan Ping looked at him straight for a long time.
The cold moonlight shone on Yuan Ping's face, shining him like an ancient stone statue, and after a full stick of incense, Wu Ye thought that Yuan Ping had fallen asleep, and the old man threw out a seemingly irrelevant question:
"Little Witch. Why are you cultivating?"
Wu Ye was stunned for a moment, and prevaricated: "In order to live." ”
Yuan Ping laughed, the soup flowed out of the corners of his mouth and onto his unkempt beard, he didn't care about wiping it, and shook his head again and again:
"If you don't want to say it, forget it, don't lie to me with such words, this bad old man, from your eyes, I can see that you are not just trying to live, but it seems to be a little different from ordinary monks, no matter, do you want to know, why did I cultivate in the first place?"
Without waiting for Wu Ye to answer, Yuan Ping patted his belly and continued: ...,
"The reason why I cultivate is only for one purpose, just to eat a full meal. ”
"I was born in a very barren village on the border of Jingchu Kingdom, because the rain is too abundant, there are always several floods a year, and there are not many crops at all, and there are also fierce monsters in the rivers and lakes, and several fishermen die every year because of fishing. ”
"My father is the strongest fisherman in the village, and he is a good fisherman, and I remember when I was a child, the yard was full of all kinds of salted fish, some of which were bigger than my whole person with a single head!"
"In those years, I was able to eat enough, but the good times didn't last long, one year a few cultivators came to the small village, saying that they were going to hunt demon beasts in the lake near the village, and they wanted to find a guide, at that time my mother was suffering from cold and fever, and my father was greedy for money, so he bought medicine for my mother, so he led them there, but when they came back, they only brought back a string of white miserable bones to our family, saying that this is my father, and he has been gnawed by demon beasts. ”
"After that, the family's situation deteriorated year by year, although the cultivator left a large amount of money, but my mother was frightened, became more and more sick, and spent money like water, but it did not get better, so she sat on the mountain and ate nothing, and by the time I was ten years old, she had become the poorest family in the village. ”
"I have two elder brothers above me, I went out early to find a way to live, one became a soldier, the other went to the cultivation sect as a miscellaneous servant, within a few years, the eldest brother who was a soldier broke a leg and came back on crutches, and the second brother who went to the cultivation sect as a miscellaneous servant, I heard that he was attacked by other cultivation sects into the mountain gate, and a magic weapon smashed down, and dozens of miscellaneous servants and low-level disciples turned into meat paste together, and they couldn't be separated!"
After receiving the news of my second brother's death, my mother couldn't do it that night! I stayed in front of my mother for three days and three nights, thinking about a problem. ”
Yuan Ping took a deep breath, looked directly into Wu Ye's eyes, and said:
"Why do these dog-day cultivators like to kill all day long?"
Wu Ye thought for a moment: "What else can cultivators do if they don't kill and kill?"
Yuan Ping forked his greasy five fingers, scratched his scalp, and said:
"Actually, there are many things that cultivators can do, thunder monks can control the weather and make the weather go smoothly, fire monks can refine farm tools and become cooks, water monks can calm floods and help irrigate farmland, and wood monks can improve crops and grow delicious and high-yield grains...... Cultivators can obviously do so many good things, they can help many, many people, so that mortals have food to eat, clothes to wear, and no need to worry about floods, droughts, and demon beasts, but cultivators don't do it, they just like to kill you to the death, and the blood is flowing like a river, what is the truth of this?"
"If the cultivator himself wants to kill you to the death, and the blood flows like a river, then that's it, the life is the cultivator's own, and he will die as much as he loves! But which great war between cultivators didn't involve countless mortals? Take this Jinchu Great War as an example, the total number of cultivators has only fallen by more than 20,000 people, and the mortal warriors on both sides have already died more than 200,000, which is ten times that of cultivators!"
"Everyone is pregnant in October, and their parents gave birth to them, so could it be that the lives of cultivators are more expensive, and they can use mortals as pawns and manipulate the lives and deaths of mortals at will?"
"I can't figure out these questions when I think about it, I always feel that the cultivation world shouldn't be like this!"
"In my imagination, in the cultivation world, cultivators should use the spiritual power of heaven and earth to help mortals, do more good deeds, and engage in more construction, instead of thinking about killing and destroying all day long, if all cultivators can do this, this world will definitely become better than today!"
Wu Ye couldn't help but say:
"Yuan Zhenren, you can't help but think too simply, people have ambitions, and people have worked hard to become cultivators, of course, they want to trample mortals under their feet, let mortals bow down to him, and can't wait to regard themselves as gods!
After a pause, he said, "I kind of understand, why Yuan Zhenren, you are willing to stagnate for decades in the Qi refining period in order to cultivate the Spirit Cultivation Technique, and this batch of high-yield spiritual rice you have planted is probably not for the sake of supplying cultivators, but for the sake of thousands of mortals being able to eat enough, right? But with your efforts alone, how can you change the entire cultivation world? No matter how bright the stars are, it is impossible to turn night into day!" Let's just say that you have such lofty ideals, but you are not trapped here, and I am afraid that none of the spiritual rice you have planted will fall into the mouths of ordinary people!"
Yuan Ping grinned and said:
"Xiao Wu, I really didn't misunderstand you, I knew that you were different from those monks outside who only knew how to fight and kill! That's right, with my strength alone, it was naturally impossible to change the entire cultivation world! But what if I told you that I wasn't alone?"
Wu Ye was startled and said, "What do you mean?"
Yuan Ping said lightly:
"I'm not the only one who is interested in changing the status quo in the cultivation world, in the past few decades, I have also secretly made a lot of fellow practitioners, although we are all cultivators, but we are extremely disgusted with the practice of fighting and killing in the cultivation world, and we absolutely can't agree with the attitude of cultivators towards mortals as ants! Our ideal is to completely overturn the current smoky cultivation world and create a completely new cultivation world, a cultivation world that has not been destroyed, only built, and a cultivation world that belongs to thousands of mortals!"
Wu Ye was completely bluffed.
Overturning the entire cultivation world? This old man's heart is really big enough!
After pondering for a long time, Wu Ye cautiously asked, "Yuan Zhenren, how are you going to overturn it...... What about the entire cultivation world?"
Yuan Ping said with blazing eyes: "Well, of course, I can't tell you now, but if you are willing to join our side, when the time comes, you will naturally know! I can only promise you-"
Yuan Ping pointed to the sky, and the dark clouds in the sky quietly dispersed at some point, revealing a sky full of brilliant stars.
The old man whispered softly, word by word: "It's about to change." (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
