Chapter 510: It's Been Cool for So Many Years...... It's nothing to die
Jia Yushi sighed, he may have had similar thoughts when he was younger.
It's just that if you stay here for a long time, you will always be affected by the environment and slowly become insensitive.
"A mountain road in the west direction, several peaks are anchored by an unknown demon god, and after passing by, there may be an extra cloud of black gas in the stomach, just like being conceived, constantly expanding."
"In just a month, this black gas will burst out of the body and kill the host."
"I don't know the rules for it yet...... The Demon God's attacks seem to be random. ”
The two of them walked along the wide road, heading forward, the number of cars was very rare, and the occasional few cars passing by were also owned by the staff of Shangbu Wenming.
Most of the natives living here only barely maintain food and clothing, and they can't really afford to use the "ultra-ancient technology" left here.
Fortunately, maintaining food and clothing is already a very happy thing.
There are also some simple and unpretentious industrial chains, where the aborigines dig minerals, grow herbs, and cut timber to sell to "ultra-ancient ruins". The robots that can automatically identify the goods, after identifying the raw materials, will give the corresponding currency.
Local residents, in turn, use these currencies to buy food, clothes, pots and pans and other daily necessities from other villages.
Over time, these currencies slowly spread.
With general equivalents, it is possible to facilitate the flow of trade between villages.
Therefore, most of the residents and the industrial chain live around the so-called "ancient ruins".
"We used to think that if we opened up a few more cities similar to the Big Mother City, the population would increase."
"It's just that, similar to the guardian of the Negative Mountain Turtle, is very rare."
"Many immortals have abnormal brains, they don't have much concentration, they may have been assimilated by the power of the demon god, and they can't take care of too many ......people," Jia Yushi said.
In a dome-shaped building, Zhang Ming saw a line of ink-colored text: "The rules of the Great Mother City Trading Market: Don't lie, violators, die!" ”
Simple and crude rules, but effective.
In the Great Mother City, a very large number of residents and many caravans from afar are trading here.
However, the atmosphere inside seemed quite stiff, and the occasional conversation was slow, and it took a long time to think about it before saying that.
"With this corridor as the dividing line, you can't lie when you pass through the corridor." Jia Yushi introduced, "Otherwise, you will be attacked by the demon god and die immediately." ”
This is caused by the spillover of the power of the demon god, and the detection mechanism in it is based on "self-awareness".
For example, someone greets you, "Have you had breakfast?" ”
If you didn't eat it, but subconsciously replied "I ate",
If such a person does not realize that he is lying, it is fine, because the current monitoring mechanism of the demon god is based on "self-awareness".
But if he realizes afterwards that he was lying, he will die instantly.
The Demon God [Mo] doesn't care if you're trading or greeting, as long as you touch its rules, it will kill you immediately.
It is obviously difficult to deceive yourself, so everyone would rather be silent than greet, and think twice about every word they say.
Because of such rules, honest business is like a kind of culture-like existence.
People tend to trade here, after all, it can really save a lot of trouble.
Jia Yushi said: "After seeing such majesty, even if they leave the Great Mother City, they will not dare to rashly violate the principle of integrity, but will spread the rules here devoutly, and slowly, some rules will be passed on to the distance." This may be a model for transforming the world with the help of the power of the demon god. ”
"It's just a pity that the one who suppressed here can't hold on...... I don't know how long this will last. ”
"Where is the Negative Mountain Turtle now?" Zhang Ming said.
An old voice rang out: "Right at the foot of the house, the boy who eats soft rice, are you awake?" ”
"What price did you pay for eating soft rice?"
"She wants me to help her make money and dig space tunnels." Zhang Ming was full of nonsense, "But my strength is not good now, and the consumption of digging tunnels is too great...... So I'll have to wait until I grow up. ”
Suddenly, Lao Zhang broke out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, he hadn't entered the other side of the corridor yet, otherwise this lie alone would have caused him to be attacked at the level of a demon god!
"Well, I guess that's the same...... If you weren't useful, the demon god would have slaughtered you a long time ago, how could you be so kind? You kid take it easy, don't really think that you can eat soft rice infinitely. ”
The Negative Mountain Turtle also wanted to use the power of [Mo] to spy on whether Lao Zhang was lying.
But after careful consideration, forget it.
On the one hand, the two sides did not tear their faces, which can be regarded as friendly and cooperative relations.
Indiscriminate polygraph will only offend Zhang Ming.
Who wants to expose their privacy?
On the other hand, the mechanism of this lie detector is only caused by the Demon God [Mo] leaking rules.
This rule is really accurate to take ordinary people, but if you want to take the strong, there is still a way to circumvent it.
After all, this is only a lie detector mechanism based on "self-knowledge", and the strong can avoid it as long as they find a way to modify their memories and change their self-perception.
If you really want to control the strong, the only way is the "contract", which is the true power of the demon god [Mo].
If you modify your cognition temporarily, it will also be detected.
"Don't worry about it, that demon god likes me so much. I give her money every day, do you know how cool it is to keep a demon god? Zhang Ming said brazenly, and even moved his body to the inside of the corridor in order to prove that he was not lying, "Look, I didn't lie." ”
"Haha, this kid's demon god power is in his brain, and he is really delirious, and the 100,000 yuan he earned with great difficulty will not be deceived like this." The Divine Turtle snorted coldly.
"That's not true, it's still with me." Zhang Ming said.
"You can't say that, old turtle, the 100,000 yuan was earned by the [long-cherished wish] demon god himself, and this kid can't produce that fruit by himself. He's just a storehouse of the source of the world! ”
A crow flew in the sky and gloated: "But it doesn't matter, one more [long-cherished] demon god is better than a large number of more demon gods." ”
"At least the [long-cherished wish] demon god can still cooperate, anyway, it is this mentally ill person who bears the price."
"That's called the [Hope] Demon God, do you understand...... If you want to see her, I will call her now. Zhang Ming danced with his hands and began to dance the gods.
"The wind is howling!"
The ghost crow was immediately frightened half to death, and stopped on the eaves, not daring to speak.
Then he flapped his wings twice and fled.
The divine thought of the Negative Mountain Divine Turtle also disappeared without a trace.
Jia Yushi couldn't escape, so he stubbornly asked, "Mr. Zhang, you... Don't call yet, I have a big question here, can you get more fruit? ”
Zhang Ming quietly moved his body back from the inside of the corridor.
He suddenly remembered one thing, that fruit tree, transplanted to the balance of judgment.
He can directly obtain the fruit through this mark on his chest, without consulting Miss Gourd.
Thinking about it now, it seems a little weird. This weird feeling is a bit indescribable.
"Well, to tell you the truth, you can't let me beg all the time."
"Although the [Hope] Demon God is not a [long-cherished wish], she does like me very much, but many times, the favor is consumed, but it is difficult to make up for it, you at least have to pay for it......"
The subtext is: yes, but you have to pay more!
Jia Yushi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, it was good to have a clear answer, anyway, his minimum task was completed.
"There are also some old guys in the funeral world, who also conveyed their thoughts, and they want to buy fruit...... Mr. Zhang, can group buying be cheaper? Otherwise, those old guys will make a fuss, and we won't be able to afford it here. How many do you have on hand and can you meet their needs? ”
Shi Mama's big lie, Zhang Ming already knew.
With the identity of his Xuanwu remnant soul, this guy's ability to fool is really not covered, and even Zhang Ming himself feels that the relief method provided by Shi Mama seems to be reliable!
In this way, wouldn't the more than 300 immortals in the burial realm need 300 fruits of the Garden of Eden?
Total Value...... Million?!
Coupled with the civilization on the other side of the Demon God Sea, if you ask for a hundred fruits, it is the source of the world worth 40 million.
Zhang Ming gasped, his mind was faintly hot, and his whole mind was blank.
"I ...... Not very clear. I think there are still some of them, because the demon god directly gave me a fruit, and also gave Zhongshan a ......" Zhang Ming said vaguely, "I don't know if there are hundreds of them......
That's too much money!
The origin of the world at the level of tens of millions, the wealth of the demon god level, can simply crush everything!
Of course, this cannot be the case.
Most immortals have a hard time 100,000 units of world origin in one go.
They do have a lot of rare treasures in hand, but the source of the world is a long-term consumable, which is equivalent to combat power.
It's really hard to come up with a large amount of spot.
This is like the Bretton Woods system on the earth, where the United States was based on gold, and the dollar was anchored to gold. But the limited amount of gold could not support the huge trading volume, so the system collapsed in just 29 years.
The source of today's world is actually only a unit of value, and since it is always in short supply, it is not really used in trade.
In other words, this thing is naturally deflationary.
As long as you hold the source of the world, with the passage of time and the continuous development of the technology of various civilizations in the Sea of Demon Gods, the value and wealth will naturally rise! The more awesome the civilization, the more eager for the source of the world!
Million!
It's just that this number is too big, so big that it is terrifying, so big that Zhang Ming's blood is about to boil.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a little suspicious in his heart.
Instead of being carried away by wealth, he began to doubt, and his body broke out in a cold sweat!
Yes, unless he manipulates the body of the space-time worm and digs a hole frantically, he can consume this large amount of wealth.
Otherwise, with his own strength, he can't spend as much as he wants!
This is indeed a super amount at the Demon God level.
So, what can this large amount of money be used for?
It really can only be used to support his personal secretary.
For the scales of judgment, money is a god!
But are things really going so well...... Is it really that smooth?
Ask yourself, is it really really that lucky and smooth?!
Zhang Ming rubbed his temples and held his breath directly, the more he thought about it, the more his heart fell to the bottom of the sea, as if he was viciously grabbed by a giant hand!
He felt that his inherent knowledge was being challenged.
It's not that he's suspicious by nature, but this fact is really weird.
At the beginning, Miss Hulu traveled into this world with only one Eden Tree.
Others, nothing!
It's really just this one tree!!
Even at first, the tree wasn't much use.
But now, just a tree that can cultivate fruit can grab such a huge profit!!
Is it really just good luck?!
"Or is it carefully designed and planned?"
Zhang Ming couldn't help but his heart beat wildly.
[Long-cherished Wish] is not a space-based demon god, and for [Long-cherished Wish], time travel is a very difficult thing.
After crossing the past, it must be extremely weak and exhausted.
If the [Long-cherished Wish] tried his best to cross through the Judgment Scale's Wishing ability, he could only carry one item, what should he carry?
"Judging from the current results, the Tree of Eden is actually the best item to carry! Not one of them! ”
"This tree, there are really too many benefits that can be leveraged!"
Even if there are only 10 million world sources, it can already restore most of the power of a demon god.
Then snowball further.
This fact, it is indeed possible, makes people feel chilled all over the body, as if even space is frozen.
"Mr. Zhang? Mr. Zhang? Jia Yushi noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Ming, and thought he was thinking about something like begging.
Zhang Ming came back to his senses and laughed twice: "I'm sorry, I have so much wealth all of a sudden, and I'm a little overwhelmed." ”
"Haha, that's understandable, but if you help dig the space tunnel in the future, it will definitely cost a lot of money. I have more money in hand, and I get used to it over time. Jia Yushi didn't say it on the back, but said it sincerely.
Mr. Zhang Ming's value is too great, not to mention that he can eat the soft rice of the demon god [Hope], and he can also dig a space tunnel!
No matter which one it is, it's all strategic value!
……
Zhang Ming is falling into deep self-doubt, and all the past is like an old photo, dyed with the color of tea.
People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless.
Intellectually, he has reason to doubt something, but emotionally, he is reluctant to doubt.
How can you get him to doubt?
There are so many common experiences on both sides.
In times of crisis, Miss Hulu does her best to take care of her, not afraid of being dirty or tired; In times of spiritual emptiness, she is able to meet all spiritual needs and be able to accompany her in any matter.
Speak politely, behave cutely and innocently, and role-play.
Very smart and able to handle all kinds of troublesome jobs.
Full of vitality, every day is happy, happy, happy.
Even the dirty laundry was washed for you!
When Zhang Ming wants to be alone, she will leave very interestingly and let Zhang Ming be alone and quiet.
Crucially, she never asked for ......
It is only now that there is a little private money.
How can you doubt her?
Thinking about this kind of thing, Zhang Ming was at a loss, and even a little frightened.
This may be the fundamental weakness of human beings, and no one wants to cut themselves and stick that knife into their hearts.
Compared to the willpower of the demon god, human beings are indeed nothing.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Ming really couldn't think of a reason, and secretly thought: "I really don't want to doubt her......"
"But if something that isn't so rosy happens, you lose. It doesn't matter if I'm dead, does Miss Hulu really exist? ”
"If it never existed, it would be fine, [long-cherished wish] finally turned around, anyway, I have been happy for so many years."
"If she really exists, but I lose in a daze, what should she do?"
At this moment, Zhang Ming was frightened and inexplicably relieved, because it seemed that it was not too late for him to realize this.
"All the civilizations in the outside world regard her as a [long-cherished wish], which is not a bad thing, and they should have made corresponding follow-up and preparations for confrontation."
"They're wise, even if I'm really tricked around......"
Zhang Ming let go of his psychological burden, after all, he has really been happy for so many years...... It's nothing to die.
There are so many civilizations and so many masters in the outside world, there are corresponding expectations.
"Heh, I always thought they were making a fuss, but I didn't expect the stupid person to be myself!"
…
"Mr. Zhang, you're awake!" At this moment, a group of men and women ran over from the mall, it was the villagers of Qingshi Village, all smiling like flowers, and the air was filled with a youthful atmosphere.
When they first saw this bustling city, they were no different from those sheep-headed people.
However, young people are always more receptive than older people, and in just a few days, they have become accustomed to the various advanced equipment here.
"Guys, how have you been these two days, and where have you been?" Zhang Ming waved at them.
"We went to the big library, and there were so many books in it! And that kind of ...... That...... Comic books! ”
"We also played games, but they were a bit expensive...... You can only play for an hour for a dollar, and it would be nice to be able to buy a computer. ”
"What do you want to do, you can buy a bicycle at most and go back."
The young men and women chattered.
"I didn't expect that the Great Mother City is still prosperous and still exists, which is really a good thing...... Most of our goods have been sold, and they are quite popular. The leader of the village, Yu Dazhu, walked over and said beautifully, "But we still have some medicines that we can sell for treatment." Mr. Zhang, this is your profit share. ”
This trip earned Zhang Ming about more than 10,000 business coins.
According to the price of one dollar and one pound of rice, it can be regarded as earning 5 tons of rice.
Compared with the big business of 40 million of the world's sources, 5 tons of rice is not even a hair.
But it's better to be real!
These not delicate currencies, held in the palm of the hand, are heavy, brought about by the labor of these days, and also represent the risks borne during this time.
Zhang Ming took these currencies and slowly came back to his senses, he felt that his soul had crossed from a very outrageous world to a more real world.
All the materials in Qingshi Village can be sold for about 50,000 yuan, and the net profit is between 25,000 and 30,000 yuan.
Among them, 20,000 yuan of profits are considered collective assets and belong to the entire village.
The other 5,000 profits can be converted into labor remuneration for the members of the caravan.
Don't think that four or five hundred yuan is a person's remuneration, in this era, a life is often only one hundred yuan......
"Don't spend it, plan well, what exactly are you going to buy." Yu Dazhu cleared his throat and taught the young people.
Word for word, he said very stereologically: "Don't waste your money on playing games, drinking, gambling, you know?" ”
"Also, take care of your lower body, don't be deceived! This is 500 yuan in exchange for your life, maybe you won't be able to earn that much in your life, understand? ”
The young men giggled and even said "understood" - although some of the guys were really ready to move, in the Great Mother City, there were indeed places like the Red Light District, and there were all kinds of creatures, which were very attractive to the males, but if someone was in charge, they would not spend money indiscriminately.
Yu Dazhu said: "We will stay here for a few days, sell the goods, and then buy what we want." Then we have to leave and return to the village. ”
"So fast?" Zhang Ming was surprised, "Don't stay for a while?" I live on a steamship and I don't charge you money. ”
"It's been too long to come out, here...... It's not my hometown after all. Yu Dazhu picked up the cigarette gun, took a puff, and spit out a puff of cloudy white smoke.
The young people also showed a confused look, having seen such a huge and prosperous city, strange customs, various rules, and various dangers along the way.
Now that the journey has finally reached its end, they have an inexplicable sense of emptiness.
The two bears in the team said that they would not leave, and the black and white bears smiled and said, "We are here to make a living." Maybe next time I will organize a team to trade in the village! ”
The Bear Civilization, as a fairly powerful civilization, allows the bears to know a little bit of the truth, and the bears can become the staff of the Great Mother City.
Now that they have come to the burial world, it is really difficult for them to return to the mother civilization, because the cost of teleportation is too expensive......
A few hundred units of the source of the world can teleport a person, and their mother civilization cannot give up the money to teleport them back.
This truth is cruel, but it is also a cold truth.
"Mr. Zhang, won't you go back with us......
A girl whose name is "Lynn" and she is the doctor in the team.
"Mr. Zhang has his own business to do, and he can't stay in our village all the time." Yu Dazhu smiled and relieved the siege, "And we have all encountered the difficulties and dangers along the way, and we know the corresponding rules." ”
"Go back the way you came, there will be no problem!"
"And we're going to stay here for a few more days, keep selling, and don't rush to say goodbye."
Although there is no feast in the world, after getting along for a long time, there is always some reluctance.
Zhang Ming thought about it for a long time, and he kind of wanted to send them home.
If you use the teleportation ability, it won't take much effort to send them back.
However, his personal secretary did not think so: [You'd better give a space prop so that they can travel lightly, not with large bags and small bags, and can also avoid some unknown risks. Then give away some tricycles and other means of transportation, plus some drugs to treat diseases, and it should be about the same. 】
[After all, too expensive gifts, they are not very willing to accept them.] 】
[It's better to let them walk back slowly on their own.] Life is their own, lessons are their own, you can take care of it for a while, but you can't take care of it for a lifetime. There are space props, and they can also be kept safe. 】
"Hey, just follow your way." Zhang Ming sighed lightly, the little secretary is really always smart, and everything is arranged in an orderly manner for him.
Next, after making an appointment with the caravan to get together for dinner, Zhang Ming followed Jia Yushi to the top floor of the circular building.
The scenery of the whole city is in full view.
On one side is the modern building, and there is even a tall technological device called "space teleportation".
Beyond the center of the city are technologically backward villages, wooden carts and patches of farmland that are being ploughed in the spring, barely maintaining the vitality of this world.
And more distant, out of sight, are withered yellow weeds and withered forests.
The power of the demon god is creeping in.
No one knows what's going on in the world beyond.
Once the balance is out of balance, it will tilt faster and faster, eventually falling at the speed of a free fall.
"Didi!"
The big screen lit up.
Jia Yushi hurriedly said, "If you want, the Sea of Demon God wants to contact you." ”
"No problem."
After the screen opened, the figure that appeared was actually a giant dragon creature.
There was also a small figure, which was his old friend, Mr. Jia Jinjin.
"Oh, my old friend, Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you have been in a coma recently, I don't know how good your mental state is?" Jia Jinjin said in that strange tone.
"Uh...... I've just come to my senses today. Zhang Ming yawned, "Look at my two dark circles, there is still a price for begging the demon god." ”
"You've been a big star in the Demon God Sea lately. The more powerful the civilization, the more attention it will pay to you. Even those very remote civilizations hiding in their own small worlds have come to be concerned. ”
Zhang Ming scolded in his heart, you don't know how much trouble my old Zhang has, and recently I have become suspicious and began to doubt my wife.
Men are like that, the more money they have, the more suspicious they become.
But he had no way to talk about this trouble, so he could only bear it himself.
"Lao Jia, although I have made some money, this life is as bad as the apple pie made by Aunt Carla next door...... I don't know how to spend it. ”
"Kara...... Aunt Kara? Jia Jinjin shook his body and raised his eyebrows again, "Lao Zhang, it is indeed not a good thing to have a lot of money, and the construction of spiritual civilization must keep up." There are not a few cases of getting rich overnight and ruining families. ”
