The town grew bigger and bigger, and gradually became a small town, and the mayor Liao Wei had a good level of management, and under his orderly planning, the new immigrants and aborigines in the town did not have major conflicts, and they all settled down smoothly.

Xiao Ling was still in the attic of the blacksmith shop, observing the people of the town and understanding the thoughts flowing in their brains.

No one in the town knew the name of the man in the attic of the smithy, where he came from or when he would leave. They gave him the nice name "God of Peace". Both the aborigines and the newcomers in the town firmly believe that as long as he is there, the town will always be peaceful and free from disasters. He is their patron saint.

The blacksmith shop is still operating as usual. Although there was no war, and the people of the town no longer needed to deliberately equip themselves with self-defense weapons at home, the name of the blacksmith and the god of peace had spread far and wide. The townspeople have become accustomed to going to the blacksmith shop to buy some iron kitchen knives, iron pots, iron basins and other utensils. The business of the blacksmith shop has been very good, and the blacksmith couple has taken in two more apprentices to help with the work.

Ruyi is still Xiao Ling's only messenger, and she is responsible for Xiao Ling's daily life. Her daily routine is to go to the attic and deliver three meals. The attic doesn't actually need to be cleaned, and the space where Xiao Ling is will definitely be clean and spotless. But Ruyi is still accustomed to wiping it with a rag every day, taking the opportunity to convey a message to this "god of peace" and listen to whether he will have any needs.

Ruyi has become accustomed to waiting for this "god of peace", accustomed to having no interest in everything, accustomed to him just sitting there quietly, doing nothing, but knowing everything.

It was about the third year that Ruyi discovered that Xiao Ling could read all her thoughts.

It was one morning, and after cleaning the table, he was about to tell Xiao Ling to come to challenge the swordsman Zong Zhen, who was ranked fifth in the Li Kingdom's martial arts. But before she could speak, Xiao Ling spoke: "Let that swordsman Zong Zhen take out his sword! I don't want to see him!"

At that time, when Ruyi heard this, he thought that Xiao Ling had seen the situation on the street in the attic before speaking, and he didn't think much about it. But then Xiao Ling said: "The injured cat belongs to Xu Xuan's family one kilometer away." ”

When he heard this, he was shocked. Because at that moment, she was thinking about a lame cat she saw on the side of the road in the morning to buy vegetables, and she was thinking about sending some food to the cat. She found the cat and didn't tell anyone about it. At this time, Xiao Ling said it, and also said the owner of the cat. In an instant, she felt that Xiao Ling was really a god, an omniscient god.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ling spoke again: "I don't know everything, I just see wider and more thoroughly than you. ”

Ruyi nodded lightly in shock, and withdrew without saying anything.

After that conversation, Ruyi found that she almost didn't need to talk and send messages anymore, because as soon as she thought of what to say to Xiao Ling, she could get his answer immediately.

Over the years, Ruyi has become convinced that he is a "god of peace" who can see through everything, and has become his most devout believer.

By the fifth year, the town had expanded to the size of a medium-sized city.

On this day, two strangers came to the blacksmith's shop. The two strangers were both dressed in gorgeous clothes and had an extraordinary bearing.

They walked into the blacksmith and did not look at the utensils in the blacksmith's shop, but walked towards the attic staircase.

The two apprentices of the blacksmith shop were shocked when they saw this. Immediately rushed forward to block it, and just shouted: "Hey, you guys" A voice came from upstairs: "Let them come up!"

The two apprentices opened their mouths wide and stopped. Two strangers walked briskly up the stairs.

These two are the only people who have walked up this staircase in years, except for Ruyi.

The two men came to the attic bed, standing one after the other, and both looked at Xiao Ling who was sitting at the head of the bed. Seeing that this Xiao Ling is just a scholar's pretence, there is nothing unique.

"Legend has it that you never let strangers go upstairs?" asked the man standing in front.

Xiao Ling glanced up at the two of them. The two of them felt their whole bodies tense inexplicably, and this glance seemed to see through all their secrets.

"I let you go upstairs because I know you have a bad temper. ”

The man standing behind had an extremely cautious look on his face, he was the national teacher of Bian Li, and his cultivation had reached the out-of-body stage. The monks of this realm can already run rampant on this planet. But he had been observing Xiao Ling, but he couldn't see anything.

The man standing in front said, "Do you know who we are?"

Xiao Ling said lightly: "Next to you is the national teacher, he calls you Your Highness." You are the king of the kingdom of Bian Li. ”

Xiao Ling said that his tone was very calm, so calm that it made the national teacher very uncomfortable.

The national teacher saw that this person knew that the person in front of him was the king, but he still sat upright on the bed, without even moving his body, which was extremely rude. He opened his mouth and was about to reprimand, but he found that after opening his mouth, his voice couldn't come out, and he just opened his mouth in embarrassment.

Then I heard the faint voice sound again: "I am not a citizen of your Bian Li Kingdom, so I don't need to be polite to your Highness." ”

The man standing in front also noticed the embarrassment of the national teacher, and immediately laughed and said: "The world says that you are the god of peace, and now it seems that you are indeed a god!"

"Your idea is ridiculous!" Xiao Ling faced Jin Yuan, the king of Bian Li.

Jin Yuan tried his best to adapt himself to this kind of conversation, and said, "I, I think you know everything?"

"I can see it. ”

"Oh, you see, I still have to say≡ you came to Wuye Town, and this border town of Bianli Kingdom has undergone earth-shaking changes. There are more people, the town has become bigger, and now this place should be called Kirino Castle. ”

"This is not the change you want to talk about, what you want to say, it should be that the people of Kirino Town no longer have you in their hearts, only me. ”

Jin Yuan smiled embarrassedly, he only believed in force before, and never believed in ghosts and gods, but talking to the scholar in front of him made him feel that the legend that ghosts and gods can predict people's thoughts seemed to be credible.

"You are very powerful, I have governed the country of Bian Li for 30 years, and I have not been able to eliminate wars and thieves. ”

"There is no comparison between a country and a city. And you are the governing, and I am the protective. The biggest difference between us is that I have the ability to protect the peace of this city, and you, except for power, have no ability at all!"

** Naked saying that the king of a country has no ability, this rebellious words made the national teacher on the side angry.

It must be known that as a national teacher, he is already the strongest man on this planet, but he still has many scruples in the face of the king. The Jin family of the royal family is not only one of the five major countries on this planet, but also the most powerful cultivation family on this planet. Not to mention that the king in front of him already has a cultivation that is very close to the out-of-body period, and there are several characters in the Jin family who have reached the out-of-body stage or even higher.

Calling Jin Yuan incapable of saying that this is a very ridiculous and unreasonable word in Bian Li Country and even on the entire planet. But when the scholar in front of him said these words, he was very calm, as if he were describing a fact.

Jin Yuan was not angry, the scholar let them go to the attic, it was already a kind of favor, and every word he said went straight to his heart. This kind of character is not simple, and it definitely deserves his respect.

Jin Yuan said: "God of Peace, can you help me?"

"Help you settle the world! Why? I have no reason to help you. ”

"If you accept the title of God of Peace, it means that you want peace. Let the world be unified, there will be no wars, no thieves, everyone will live and work in peace and contentment, and the world will be peaceful. Is that a reason?"

"The world is unified, let whoever rules the world, your Jin family? If there is rule, there will be resistance, if the so-called peace is achieved at the cost of countless lives, it is only the peak of the power of one of your families, that is not the peace in my heart. ”

These words were very rebellious, but they came out of Xiao Ling's mouth naturally. The purpose of Jin Yuan's visit this time was to invite this man to serve Bian Li Guo, but he was directly rejected by him at this moment, and the reason was so direct that he couldn't refute it.

"I wonder what peace is in your heart?"

"Every living being knows how to exercise restraint, to have love in his heart, and to have principles to coexist and to be peaceful. ”

"No one can control everyone's mind, your thoughts are naïve. ”

"Thoughts can be seen, and nature can be changed. ”

Jin Yuan was shocked, it was a fantasy to be able to change people's thoughts, but the person in front of him did read his thoughts, as he said, it was not impossible to change his thoughts. Jin Yuan was stunned for a while before bowing to Xiao Ling reverently and said, "Mr. Mo Fei has been able to do it." ”

Xiao Ling shook his head: "Not yet." ”

"Sir will do it. ”

Xiao Ling nodded.

The thought flashed in Jin Yuan's mind, and he tried to suppress the crisis in his heart.

"You can rest assured, I have no interest in power, and coming here is just a trip of mine. I'm not going to change much on this planet. ”

When Jin Yuan heard this, he no longer had superfluous thoughts in his heart, and bowed to Xiao Ling: "Please forgive me for my vulgar thoughts, so that I won't bother Mr. more." ”

After Jin Yuan finished speaking, he turned around and quickly walked down the attic with the national teacher, walked along the street into the flow of people, and walked out of the town, without saying a word all the way.

After walking out of the town and coming to a team of men and horses hidden in the woods, Jin Yuan said to the national teacher, "How do you feel?"

The national teacher was still sweating on his head, and sighed lightly: "Unfathomable." ”

Jin Yuanchang exhaled and said, "In front of him, even thoughts must be controlled. Such a person, the military, don't bother him anymore. From now on, Kirino Town will expand the town into a city, change its name to Kirino City, give them autonomy, and leave this pure land for the God of Peace to take care of!"

After Jin Yuan finished speaking, he raised the whip in his hand and led a team of men and horses into the distance.

A few days later, the holy decree arrived in Kirino Town, in addition to conveying that Kirino Town was expanding the town into a city and announcing the appointment and dismissal of relevant personnel, it also deliberately emphasized one point: the God of Peace can dispose of all the resources of Kirino City at will.

It is a happy event for the whole city to change from Kirino Town to Kirino City, and the God of Peace has been approved by the imperial court and given a very high status, which is the desire of the people of this new city.

While the whole city celebrated these two happy events, Xiao Ling still sat quietly in the attic and meditated.

Meditation seemed to be the only serious thing Xiao Ling did after living in the attic.

During the meditation, his sea of consciousness was running wildly, and a large amount of heaven and earth essence qi entered Xiao Ling's sea of consciousness during meditation, expanding that star.

While meditating, Xiao Ling's divine consciousness wandered throughout the Foggy City, observing everyone in the city, looking at their thoughts, looking at their memories, and trying to bring some changes.
