Chapter 47 Equivalent Exchange
It can be as short as 10 years or as long as 100 years.
This harsh condition made Kong Moyi's face darken, and he lowered his head and didn't know what to say.
Rootless Xuanmu was her last hope for refining the Heavenly Turning Pill, and she had paid too much price for this, but now although the Rootless Xuanmu was found, it couldn't be touched, and this feeling of disillusionment was difficult for anyone to accept.
Bai Yang looked at Huang Mingyue's smug expression that seemed to be smiling, his heart moved slightly, and said: "Since the senior said so, then the matter may not be without a turnaround, if there is another way to obtain the rootless Xuanmu, the senior please say that it is okay." ”
As he spoke, Bai Yang arched his hand, his expression extremely sincere.
Huang Mingyue glanced at Bai Yang a few times, and said with a smile: "I really appreciate you more and more as a little ghost, smart, courageous, and very scheming, Yu Xuanming is out of stock, if you have one-tenth of your characteristics, I don't think I will be so bored in the past eight hundred years." ”
"That's right. ”
Huang Mingyue nodded and affirmed: "There is indeed another way to obtain the rootless Xuanmu. ”
Kong Moyi's eyes lit up slightly, looking at Huang Mingyue expectantly.
But Huang Mingyue poured a basin of cold water on her, and said lightly: "Don't be happy too early, although there is a way, but just the two of you, you can't do it." ”
"Please make it clear. Bai Yang said respectfully.
"I can't say it explicitly, but I can show you the way. Huang Mingyue smiled and said, "You have also seen that this rootless Xuanmu world has already taken on a scale. And where there are human beings, there must naturally be rules, there are rules, in this world, I am only responsible for creating, but I have no other rights, so for the matter of rootless Xuanmu, you have to find the person in charge of the human race today. ”
Seeing the contemplative look on Bai Yang's face, Huang Mingyue explained: "The rootless Xuanmu has to be repaired every year, although most of the useless branches are directly distributed to many villagers as firewood, but there are still some spiritual parts that will be collected and used in other places. This part of the spiritual rootless Xuanmu is placed in the hands of the person in charge of the village for safekeeping, and he distributes the use of the rootless Xuanmu for anything. ”
Therefore, Huang Mingyue looked at the two of them with a smile and said: "The person in charge of the village is not weaker than me, but he is not as good at talking as me, whether he can get the rootless Xuanmu in his hands depends on the ability of the two of you." ”
Bai Yang and Kong Moyi glanced at each other, Kong Moyi's eyes were firm, and he nodded.
So Bai Yang said to Huang Mingyue: "Willing to give it a try." ”
"I admire a bold little fellow like you, go, come with me. ”
Huang Mingyue turned out of the wooden house, and after leaving the island in the middle of the lake, she walked towards the vast field.
Along the way, ordinary people dressed as farmers constantly greeted her, with smiles on their faces and respectful tones, which was enough to see that Huang Mingyue had a high reputation among the people here.
Above the ups and downs of the field, a village appeared in front of Bai Yang and Kong Moyi, the village is full of people, and they are still bartering with each other.
"My lord, why do you have time to come to the village today?"
When a woman carrying meat saw Huang Mingyue, she immediately came over excitedly and said, "My lord, those things in our house are almost ripe, I will send you some another day, don't shirk it." ”
"Then what's so embarrassing, I have to accept your gifts every time I come, and if I do this, I won't come out. Huang Mingyue blinked, feigning displeasure.
But the woman obviously knew what kind of temper Huang Mingyue was, and after smiling, she was not allowed to refuse again, and then she looked at the two people behind her and asked, "These two little dolls are so good-looking, which child are they?"
"Oh, these are my two little friends, and I brought them here to find the village chief for something. Huang Mingyue walked over and said, "You are busy first, and I will go to the village chief." ”
"My lord, that old thing doesn't know what he's crazy about now, and he can't see anyone at home, and you'd better come back to him later, or he'll run into you, so what should you do?" The woman hesitated and said, "A few days ago, the baby of the Wang family rushed into his house, and the old thing that usually likes the child the most actually beat him in the ass. After that, not only the children, but even a few old stubborns who were good friends with the old man didn't dare to visit, and they didn't know what evil they had bumped into. ”
After the woman shook her head, she waved her hand and said enthusiastically: "Ouch, look at my memory, if you are an adult, the old thing will not dare to fight you, no matter how big the donkey temper is." You guys are busy first, wait until you go to my house and take the things I have prepared, but don't shirk it!"
After seeing the woman leave, Huang Mingyue had a smile on her face, looked at Bai Yang and said, "Did you hear that too?" that old man is not a guy to mess with, if he provokes him, it will be light to beat you, maybe he will hang you up and starve for a few days, and then don't tell Yu Xuanming that I deliberately hurt you." ”
Bai Yang smiled slightly, "The seniors lead the way, success or failure is all up to the individual, of course, there will be no resentment." ”
The corners of Huang Mingyue's mouth curled, and without saying a word, she led the two of them to the deepest part of the village.
The village is very well built, and it looks simple on the outside, but on the inside it is hidden, like a prosperous and developed town, even if it is the town of Cema, it may not be of such a scale. Bai Yang walked all the way, secretly surprised, the village has developed to such a degree, the villagers can still maintain such a simple mentality, I have to say, Huang Mingyue is very means, she did not deliberately suppress the evil thoughts in the bottom of people's hearts, nor did she excessively promote and beautify those good thoughts, just go with the flow, let people live in harmony with each other, it can be seen that she must have worked hard in this regard.
Bai Yang glanced at this woman with a graceful figure and a natural and generous demeanor, or rather an immortal firebird, and had a different evaluation of the demon beast in his heart.
"If you live for a long time, you will naturally have something like a human being. Although the demon beast is born in the beast body, the powerful demon beast has gone through a long time, and it is closer to the people's hearts, if it is slightly improved, it will naturally understand how to control it, or guide it. The juggernaut said: "This Huang Mingyue does have some means, but it can only be used on a small scale, if this world is expanded a little more, if their life horizons are opened a little more, something in their hearts will naturally take root." ”
"Where there are people, there is conflict, and what is the cause of the conflict? Of course, it is interests. When they experience the colors of the world and see the wider things, will they still maintain such a simple mentality? Today, they can exchange their own labor for materials for each other, but if someone thinks in the future that they can strengthen themselves by gathering everyone's materials, what will they do? What should they do when someone slowly devours other people's labor for their own selfish desires? At that time, this rustic place will also deteriorate, when there are more people, there will be more uncertain factors, she Huang Mingyue can make the current situation stable, but there will be a day when things will go beyond her imagination and get out of her control, and then she will find that she will cultivate her mind for thousands of years, and in the end she still can't understand people's hearts. ”
Hearing the master's words, Bai Yang, who had a trace of illusion about this place, fell silent.
Finally, he had to sigh and admit that the Juggernaut's words made perfect sense.
But he still said: "Even so, should we destroy the hearts of people in this world? There are two sides to everything, there is good and there is evil, and blind denial will not change anything." ”
"yes, nothing can be changed. The Juggernaut smiled wryly, then stopped talking.
Bai Yang knew that he must have thought of something from the past, so he simply stopped bothering him, and at this time, Huang Mingyue also took the two of them to the innermost room in the village, stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Li Mushu, open the door. ”
Huang Mingyue's voice was very unkind, and an old and hoarse voice came from inside, saying, "Don't bother me, go away." ”
"Li Mushu, I'll give you ten breaths, if you don't open the door, I'll just break the door and go in. Huang Mingyue smiled.
Just as she finished saying this, the door in front of her suddenly opened, revealing a white-haired old man with a disheveled hair, he glared angrily and roared: "Huang Mingyue, what do you want? Don't you know, I've been in a bad mood lately? What do you want to do? You say, what do you want to do?!"
As he spoke, he saw Bai Yang and Kong Moyi, and the anger in his eyes was even stronger: "You also brought two little cubs to me?
"Don't come with me, Li Mushu, these two little guys have something to do with you, and it has nothing to do with me. Huang Mingyue waved her hand and said, "Go in, by the way, don't touch the things in his house, it's all his lifeline." ”
When Bai Yang heard this, he said goodbye and walked directly into the house. Kong Moyi hesitated for a moment, and then walked in.
Although the old man named Li Mushu looked angry, he didn't stop the two from entering, and after a few breaths, he said: "Huang Mingyue, I see that you want to be angry with me, what's the matter, I've been making you a cow and a horse for so many years, and you finally think I have no use value?"
"Old guy, I'm not serious here, I'll tell you, these two little guys are looking for you, what do you have to do with me?"
Li Mushu didn't listen: "Don't think I don't know, you must have the idea of beating my treasures, I understand to tell you, it's impossible! If you want to take anything from me, it's impossible!"
"This senior, I'll just say what I mean, this time I came to bother, I still hope that the senior will borrow a little rootless Xuanmu. As soon as Li Mushu finished saying this, Bai Yang's next sentence made the expression on his face freeze, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"Borrow a rootless genus?"
After hesitating for a while, Li Mushu said: "Isn't that thing there, come to me to borrow it?" Huang Mingyue, didn't you slam the door to this point?"
Huang Mingyue shrugged helplessly when she heard this: "No way, the rootless Xuanmu has entered a defensive state in the past two days, even I can't get close to the wood, if you want the rootless Xuanmu, only you still have stock here." Although I know that you are an iron rooster with no hair, I simply brought my two children over to try my luck. ”
"No!" Li Mushu waved his hand resolutely and said coldly: "If you want to take something from me, it's not impossible, but at least there must be something of equal exchange, otherwise you can't get in and out, wouldn't my treasure have been deceived by you a long time ago?"
After speaking, he looked resolute, turned around and said to Bai Yang and Kong Moyi: "Two little ghosts, if you want rootless Xuanmu, it's not that you can't, take something in exchange! If you don't have anything, then get out of here as soon as possible!"
"Hehe, Li Mushu, Li Mushu, you and that guy Yu Xuanming have learned a good rogue method. Huang Mingyue shook her head: "Two little ghosts, I have already brought you here, as for whether you can get the rootless Xuanmu from him, it depends on your ability, and I don't care about the rest of the matter." ”
After finishing speaking, Huang Mingyue turned around and left, leaving Bai Yang and Kong Moyi looking at each other.
