Chapter 136: Reminiscing about the past and recalling doubts
As the old saying goes, people die for wealth, and birds die for food. Under the temptation of huge wealth, few people can achieve a clear mind and avoid evil.
Knowing that there were quite terrible murderous creatures on the Yin Soul Ridge, in order to be able to get the red gold, the villagers of Heixi Tower Village still rushed to go up the mountain one after another.
Other villages are all bitter when they see the disaster year, but this village is the only village that uses the disaster year as a yardstick to define the opportunity to enter the mountain to explore treasures.
For them, whether there is surplus food for the winter is secondary. Whether you can find even a little bit of red gold in the mountains and bring your family to be rich and wealthy is more important than anything else.
Xue Ding stretched out his hand and gently stroked the back of the Basheng knife: "When I first built this Basheng knife, I used seven taels of red gold, just seven taels, and then let the Basheng knife squeeze into the ninth place in the world's divine soldier spectrum, seven taels of red gold, which is almost such a large stone." SchrΓΆding casually pointed to a stone on the ground the size of his thumb.
The value of the divine soldier has never been estimated, and if he is afraid that if he uses it to exchange cities with the monarch, the monarch will not hesitate to make a deal.
In other words, such a large piece of gold can be exchanged for a large city that can accommodate 10,000 people.
"In fact, the corpse plague has spread early in the morning, but Heixita Village has never leaked out. Knowing that there were not many people in this Yin Soul Ridge with red gold, he didn't want to invite outsiders to covet this treasure. Lan Qing twisted her fingers slightly, and a trace of fine gold sand visible to the naked eye leaked out from between her fingers.
"Juntong, do you know that those who go on the road to life can't find Chijin, and if they want to find Chijin, they will definitely come to me. β
Meng Juntong understood that this red gold had been the bait Lan Qing used to fish for foreign villagers from the beginning.
To put it mildly, these blood foods were not plundered by Lan Qing, but obediently and willingly sent to her mouth, what reason do you say she didn't eat it.
Lan Qing couldn't leave Yin Soul Ridge at all in the short term, and she herself said that she had to eat enough blood food to be able to break through the seal.
If we can persuade the people of Heixita Village at the foot of the mountain not to go up the mountain again, and at the same time cut off the road leading to the Yin Soul Ridge in the entire Heixita Village, then there will be no more blood food to take the initiative to send to the door, and there will be no more people who die in vain.
Lan Qing seemed to see through Meng Juntong's thoughts, and she said to Meng Juntong with a smile: "Juntong, don't expect to be able to stop the greed in people's hearts, no one in this world can do it. Even if you go down and tell them everything on the Ghost Ridge, they will still go up the mountain, believe it or not. In fact, they all know this in their hearts, but they are just unwilling. β
Meng Juntong's heart was extremely heavy, she always felt that she could do something, but she just couldn't think of it, she was a little annoyed.
"Or there's another way, you can get rid of me now, if you have the ability. β
When Lan Qing spoke, she would occasionally reveal her demonic side, as long as her emotions fluctuated slightly, her demonic thoughts would be layered like waves.
"Senior Lan Qing, I have one last question I want to ask you. Meng Juntong didn't respond to the suggestion that Lan Qing said just now.
This suggestion is not feasible at all, not to mention that she can't treat Lan Qing as an enemy, with Lan Qing's means, she Meng Juntong can't fight her even if she comes ten more.
"Say it," Lan Qing's mood stabilized again, returning to a calm state.
"I want to know something about my mother, you said that she looked for you before and helped you deal with Zhao Tianxing, so later, she must have come back to find you, otherwise you won't know that she failed." β
When Xiao Xiao was mentioned, Lan Qing's eyes were much clearer: "That's right, she went to Zhao Tianxing and fought with him." She came back and told me that she and Zhao Tianxing had a draw. Zhao Tianxing was blessed by Zhao Guo's luck as the king of the country, and Xiao Xiao couldn't kill her. β
"Then what happened later, where did she go?" Meng Juntong asked nervously, this is likely to be a very important clue, and every time her mother enters the human world after that, it is very likely that she has been here.
Lan Qing thought for a while and continued: "She had already collected the merits of the ten directions at that time, and after this matter, she promised me that she would come to the world again, so she went back to Shaohua City first. Speaking of this, she paused: "To be precise, she didn't just collect the merits of the ten directions at that time. β
"More than the ten merits have been gathered? Meng Juntong asked.
Lan Qing didn't seem to be very sure of herself: "Each person who has entered the world has a merit wheel, and the merit wheel is imprinted in our Yuan Shen, and every time a merit is obtained, it will be included in the merit wheel, and when the merit of the ten directions is collected, the merit wheel will lock itself and will not reveal a little merit power."
But when I saw your mother at that time, she was full of merit power, and she even used a lot of merit power to remove the karma that was impregnated in my body. Speaking of which, I do owe her a great favor, otherwise the karmic torment of that day would not have been a joke. β
"Are you saying that my mother has collected a lot of merit in addition to the merits that should have been gathered?"
Lan Qing nodded: "That's right, it's just that this situation is the only time I've seen it in my life, and I've never seen the power of merit that can be accumulated in this way."
Of course, I haven't been able to learn the secret technique of merit in Shaohua Pavilion, and it's hard to say if there is anything missing. β
Shaohua Pavilion has 3,000 meritorious secret techniques, and Meng Juntong probably knows and has mastered more than 900 kinds under the assault, but many of them are only memorized by memory, and they have not yet been practiced.
She had gone through these secret techniques in her mind, and it seemed that there were no secret methods for storing and transforming the power of merit.
But at the moment, these are not the key, the key is where the mother went later.
Meng Juntong waited for Lan Qing to continue, Lan Qing thought for a moment and continued.
"It's been nearly five years or so since she returned to Shaohua Dream City, and she came to the Yin Soul Ridge again, and that time she seemed to be seriously injured, it can be said that she was almost dying, and even the Yuan Shen was about to collapse.
It's hard to imagine that someone in this world could hurt her like this. Later, because of an unknown treasure, your mother survived with great difficulty.
I also asked her who had hurt her like this, but she wouldn't say anything.
She told me that the Huangquan Dao would make a big move in the human world, and it was very likely to endanger the Three Realms. β
"And then," Meng Juntong had never been so anxious.
Lan Qing shook her head when she said this: "No more, she just healed her injuries for three points and left the Yin Soul Ridge." β
"Did she say where she was going?"
Lan Qing still just shook her head: "Others, she didn't say anything." β
Meng Juntong only felt dizzy, she had never felt that her mother's affairs were so close to her, but it came to an abrupt end again.
