After enjoying it comfortably, these spirit beasts will leave tokens: feathers, hair and the like.
These feathers and hairs can be used by the villagers as tax credits to Emei during the autumn harvest season, and they can also be credited a lot.
The most important thing is that these feathers and hair are different from those of ordinary animals. They are as strong as diamonds. Soaking in wine or grinding them into powder and taking a bath can have a miraculous effect on improving the bones.So there are many businessmen walking around the streets to collect high prices, and then resell them to those aristocratic families.
Those children of everyone may not be willing to practice kung fu hard, but they are eager for supplements and the like.
Some local villagers would not sell the feathers they picked up, and they simply regarded them as family heirlooms. If they were made into dowry or bride price, it would be a very honorable thing.
With twice the benefits, someone will definitely take the risk, but what puzzles Wei Yixiao is that he has never seen locals or martial arts people poach these spirit beasts along the way.
Could it be that the people here are influenced by the Buddhadharma and are all merciful and merciful?
But just now he saw an old lady slapping a pig until its brain was blown out, this is not like it!
"Brother? Are you dead?" Wei Yixiao walked up to the old man, pushed him, and asked politely.
The old man opened his eyes and glanced at him. He looked like a Jianghu man, but his expression was calm.
"Guawazi, why are you so young?" With a heavy Sichuan accent.
Wei Yixiao asked out the confusion in his heart.
Some old people, who are very old, know the destiny, and have sensitive senses, I believe they will have the same feelings as him.
Why is there such a strong sense of oppression here?
Also, why is everyone so honest?The white crane's legs are tight and strong, straight and ruddy, and they look like good ingredients. Why don't you grab one and try it out?
The old man looked him up and down, shook his head, pointed to the towering Emei Mountain in the distance, closed his eyes, then lay down, and said slowly: "There is a god when you raise your head three feet away!"
Wei Yixiao was a little confused, looking at the beautiful and majestic Mount Emei in the distance.
"God?"
After a while, Wei Yixiao's expression tightened. Could it be that what he was doing here could be seen by Master Zhou who was far away in the sky?
What's the difference between that and a real fairy?
Looking around, you can see the harvested rice field, the leisurely old man, the elegant white crane enjoying fish and shrimp beside the rice field, and the sparrows peeping around the tree, coveting but not daring to offend.
He seems to have realized something.
In today's chaotic world, perhaps only absolute power can make this place so peaceful and prosperous.
Recalling that day, Zhou Zhenren was flying with his sword for thousands of miles, the sword energy swept across, and the Yuan court's [-] troops bowed down and worshiped.
Wei Yixiao understood another more important thing: here, there is great terror!
……
Mount Emei, the cliff of sacrifice.
Zhou Zhiruo was sitting on the edge of the cliff, wearing a silk flower shirt with a white background, quiet and elegant, pure and tender, like a lotus flower with a bag in its water, spotless.
The girl was holding a book, her teeth were bright and bright, and when she saw something wonderful, her two little feet swayed unconsciously. The soles of her feet were slender, her ankle bones were round, and she was as white and pure as white jade.Ever since she broke through her cultivation and realized her nature, she doesn't like wearing shoes very much. She really likes the kind of kindness where her feet step on the ground and feel the thick and broad veins of heaven and earth.
But there is something wrong with bare feet. When playing with Lele, it is easy to be scratched by his flexible tail, which is too itchy.Although she could already control her mind, it wasn't fun to fight like that.
Jingxuan climbed up, and immediately began to complain: "Little sister, there are still many sisters in the sect who are not satisfied with the new school rules.
It’s okay to collect less tax. After all, apart from the medicinal food for practicing kung fu, we only have simple food and drink, and we don’t need much money.
Why do we only accept girls when recruiting in the future, and focus on girls from poor families? We also built a shelter at the foot of the mountain, and we will take in girls who are not wanted by any family.
It’s okay for such children to be in poor health. Many of them are suffering from illnesses, and we may not be able to save them alive even if we spend a lot of money. "
Zhou Zhiruo shook his little feet and smiled, "Senior Sister, do you know why I like reading?"
Jingxuan shook her head, she was also very strange, if she had the martial arts of my junior sister now, then she... seems useless, and she only likes to stay in Mount Emei.
It is quiet here, without the troubles of the world.
The girl looked at the sea of clouds thousands of miles below her feet. The clouds rolled and clouded, as if they had remained unchanged for thousands of years, and seemed to be changing every moment.
"I read a lot of books, classics and history collections, mountains, rivers and lands, although these books may have nothing to do with me, but they taught me to think.
Senior Sister, what kind of sect do you think is the easiest to survive in this vast world for a long time? "
Hearing this, Jingxuan fell into deep thought.
The breeze is blowing, the mountains are beautiful with ice and snow, and the abyss is near, the clouds and mists do not disperse, and the two women do not speak for a long time.
The future, this topic, is too heavy.So long ago, who can tell clearly?
Under the cliff, the little yellow cat was squatting in front of a small hole, shouting kindly and enthusiastically to the voles inside.
"Meow~"
Brother, how do you sleep well at your age, come out to look for food, it will be winter soon!
Vole: …
Chapter 0297 Marriage
Emei Jinding, the incense is at its peak.
Sacrificial cliff.
Jingxuan thought for a long time before hesitatingly said: "There is only one martial arts sect that will last forever, and that is Shaolin. They can maintain their glory for hundreds of years, and there must be a reason for it.
Why don't we learn from them? "
Zhou Zhiruo nodded: "Indeed, Shaolin is very powerful. It accepts believers' incense, buys land to cultivate fields, and recruits a large number of lay disciples to increase its influence. It fully supplies the masters in the temple to practice and guarantees extremely powerful combat power.
Moreover, Shaolin has participated in almost all major events in the world and martial arts over the years, and they are also good at betting on multiple sides.In this way, whoever wins to the end, Shaolin will not lose.
However, we are different. "
Jingxuan was a little strange: "Junior Sister, now that you are number one in the world, it shouldn't be difficult to be like them, right? Is it not easy for you to create a unique school?"
Zhou Zhiruo said with a smile: "We all have the same martial arts, wealth, and even believers, but don't forget that the leaders of our Emei Sect are all women.
Women, most of them like to intrigue and have small vision.For some inexplicable things, even the interests of the family and the interests of the sect can be ignored.
Moreover, such women are mostly selfish.If there are relatives of their nephews in the sect, do you think they will not take good care of them, and even have the right to seek personal gain? "
Jingxuan was silent, she had seen the penetrating power of the aristocratic family in the words of her junior sister these days.
Not to mention a small sect, even a great country covering tens of thousands of miles, as long as there is an opportunity to exploit, as time goes by, there will definitely be many families.
People are selfish, they don't take care of their relatives and children, they arrange them to be taken care of by themselves or their friends, why do they still take care of you as an outsider?
But if it is different according to the rules set by the junior sister, most of the salt and iron taxes collected are used to build mountain roads, fields, bridges, and help the poor people. If there is no money, they will not be coveted by those aristocratic warlords.
The precept disciples accepted are all girls from poor families, who were either abandoned, or whose families have been destroyed, and have nothing to do with the mountain, so that they can practice with peace of mind.
Of course, lay disciples are also needed, otherwise Emei's martial arts might be a disaster.
But if you give me money, I will learn it for you. There is no big problem. If you want to learn martial arts, you can't even give money, right?As for the threat of leakage of unique skills, has Shaolin leaked less unique skills over the years?
In this way, no matter which dynasty they are in, as long as they Emei can be their own mascots with peace of mind, and they have expert guardians, as long as the ruler is not too stupid, they will definitely be willing to show his respect for Buddhism.
Of course, like Shaolin, the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit must also be necessary, because sometimes you have to admit that there are really many brain-dead in this world.
"Junior Junior Sister, you may be right." Jingxuan said silently.
Zhou Zhiruo smiled: "Senior sister, read more. In the future, we may be useless, unknown, or even have nothing. Maybe we die inexplicably, or live inexplicably, these are not important.
What is important is that I know what kind of person I want to be. This is a kind of spirit. She can nourish my soul. It has nothing to do with future, money, or others. "
"Senior Sister, a person is actually a piece of paper, but this piece of paper shouldn't just be written about sex, wealth, fame and wealth, it's a scribbled piece of paper." The girl said solemnly.
Jingxuan hesitated for a moment after listening.
"Junior Sister, you have all these things, so you can say that, and you are qualified to say that.
But those ordinary people at the bottom of the mountain, and the teachers and sisters on the mountain, can only fight and survive in this vast and chaotic world, in order to live a better life. "
Zhou Zhiruo was taken aback for a moment, then fell silent.
"Hey~" The two teachers and sisters sighed at the same time.
Will there be a dynasty in the future, where everyone has no worries about food and clothing, little to support and old to depend on, and everyone can choose the path they want to take?
What did people do at that time?
Maybe they are happy every day.
"Zhizhi~zhizhi~" While the two of them were contemplating, the little yellow cat dragged up a field mouse that was bigger than him from the bottom of the mountain. The field mouse was as black as ink, and its hair was shiny.
Seeing the two of them, Miao Le was stunned, his big blue eyes blinked, hesitating for a breath.
"Meow~"
What a coincidence, I just adopted a younger brother, do you want to eat?
Zhou Zhiruo: ...
Vole: …
"Senior Sister Zhou, that person named Wei Yixiao from the bottom of the mountain is here again, and he said he is here to deliver wedding invitations." A little girl climbed up from the cliff, with a slender figure, but unfortunately she had a red spot on her face.
Because of this erythema, she was abandoned since she was a child.Zhou Zhiruo ordered Xiaopeng to pick her up from the mountain, otherwise she would have been starved to death. In the past few years, Zhiruo took care of her personally, and her body slowly recovered.
And she didn't know who took her, she was lazy, and it was better to do less than to do more.
Zhou Zhiruo had no choice but to let her guard at the foot of the mountain, and if someone came to report, he had to run up the mountain to make an announcement.
After running up and down like this all the time, Jing Nian gradually recovered his health.As for the birthmark on her face, if necessary, Zhiruo is ready to wait for her to grow up and shape her body before helping to remove it.
Zhou Zhiruo stepped forward and gently touched Jing Nian's little head: "Let him go, I don't want to see other outsiders."
Jing Nian narrowed her eyes comfortably.
Looking at the little girl in front of him, Zhi Ruo thought of himself when he just went up the mountain.If it wasn't for the care of senior sister and master, and Lele's help, she wouldn't be where she is now.
One reason for the greatness of human beings is that many people have a fundamentally good heart.Although she may not see that others are better than her, but if others are too pitiful, many people will pity them and extend a helping hand.
In this world, there are more bad people and more good people.
"Go down~"
"Oh!" Jing Nian pursed her lips, even if she wanted to be lazy for a while.
It's not surprising that the senior sister doesn't go down the mountain.
I don't know how many aristocratic families, kings, and martial arts masters have come to worship the mountain in the past few years, and they were all rejected without exception.According to the senior sister, if you want to ensure the continuity of Emei's inheritance, apart from the most important thing is to ensure your own strength, the other is not to do some unnecessary things.
The bosses of those big powers all have the same attitude. They can call your mother for help in times of crisis. When things are done, you can take advantage of a little bit.
Is it not good to eat fast and chant Buddha on the mountain?
Slowly moving down the mountain, Jing Nian saw the little yellow cat on the other side sneaking down the mountain step by step. The key point was that it brought her a big gift: a fat vole.
Adopted by an old beggar since she was a child, she waited for the old beggar to starve to death, and then became a little beggar. But she knows the deliciousness of roasted voles: delicious!
"Yeah~" Jing Nian strode forward to pick up the little yellow cat: "Lele, do we want to roast and eat this field mouse?"
Miao Le: ...
This is my little brother, you can't bake it.
Vole: …
In your eyes, besides being eaten, am I useless?
After Jing Nian left for a long time, Zhou Zhiruo read the book for a while, he seemed to feel something, shook his head and laughed.
It was great when I was a child!
At the foot of the mountain, Wei Yixiao was not discouraged when he received the news. After all, Zhou Zhenren was notoriously unkind, and Zhang Zhenren was also there.
You must know that the leader is his direct descendant!
Prince and general, he, Wei Yixiao, is here.
……
On the fifteenth day of the tenth month, all members of Mingjiao changed into new clothes.
The auditorium for worshiping heaven and earth is set on the hall of the richest gentry in Haozhou, with lanterns and festoons hung and colorful decorations.
