Chapter 436 [Gunding Village Affairs]
"Where did the guest come from? What's the name?" asked the leader.
"My surname is Fang, and my first name is Chang. I am from Yunzhong Mountain in Ninghe Prefecture. In recent years, I have often traveled around for disasters in the world. This time, I came from the north and passed by here. I heard that there is a small village where humans and monsters live here, so Come here to open your eyes." Fang Chang replied, "I don't know what the leader's name is?"
Hearing Fang Chang mention the doom of the world, the leader was a little afraid and hesitant for a while.
After all, as a village that hides from the world, they have no interest in stirring up the turmoil in the world, and even avoid it.
So the leader hesitated, and said to Fang Chang: "I have lived here for thirteen years, Zhao Chong. I don't know why Mr. Fang came to this place..."
He was worried that Fang Chang had other goals besides "opening his eyes", which would be bad.
The other party's cultivation base is so strong, it is impossible to drive out, so I have to inquire about the purpose of this white-clothed man here, and the soldiers come to cover up the water and the earth.
But Fang Chang said with a smile: "There is no important purpose. One is to come here to broaden our horizons, and the other is to come here to inquire about news."
Hearing this answer, Chief Zhao was a little relieved, and he continued to probe:
"Mr. Fang, don't be joking. Our Yunding Village is said to be populated by humans and demons, but it is actually very rough and ordinary. What can be called an 'eye-opening'? People who come here, as long as they have a good impression of Yunding Village, they are already It’s a bit overrated here.”
Shaking his head, Fang Chang said: "Chief Zhao's words are absurd, but in my opinion, Yunding Village is a rare and good place."
"Oh? I would like to hear more about it."
"From my point of view, there are three wonders in Yunding Village. The first is the terrain here. There are flat lands on top of the mountains, jagged rocks on the bottom, and clear rice fields on the top. This is the first wonder;"
"Then there is the custom here, people and monsters live together, the order is not chaotic, they know each other's identities but get along as normal, this kind of thing is also very rare in the world, this is called the second strange;"
"In the end, Yunding Village is unwilling to intervene in the changes in the world, and has not intervened in the end. It just wants to hide from the matter. Although this ideal is also common in the world, it is still worthy of being called the third wonder if it can be achieved. .”
"With these three wonders in hand, it is definitely not the 'rough and ordinary' place that Chief Zhao said."
Being praised so fiercely by the expert in his eyes, Zhao Chong could not help but feel a little flustered, but he still did not let down his vigilance, and continued: "It is really an honor for our Yunding Village to have Mr. Fang value him so much. Be sure to linger in this place for a while, and let me wait to entertain you with all my heart."
He was going to ask Fang Chang what the news he wanted to inquire about, but before he could open his mouth, he heard Fang Chang say: "There is no need for this way, I have satisfied my curiosity by coming here. From my point of view, Yunding Village His appearance is unique in the world."
He offered tea to Fang Chang, and then said with great interest: "This place has been like this since ancient times. We, Yunding Village, don't know how long we have stayed here. Anyway, there are no historical materials that can record a small place like ours. People in the village don't care about it either."
"However, there was a saying at the beginning of the completion of the village. Five friends, three people and two monsters, were tired of worldly affairs, so they came here together with their family to live and cultivate on the top of the mountain. Day after day, year after year, the size of the village It has grown a lot, and finally has what it is today."
But at present, the number of monsters in the village is obviously more than that of humans, which is somewhat contrary to common sense, so he raised this doubt to Zhao Chong.
"Sir, I don't know something." Zhao Chong shook his head and said, "Although Yunding Village has come to this place of seclusion, it has not completely cut off contact with the outside world. It's just that communication has been reduced due to geographical isolation."
"That's why people and demons who are tired of the strife in the world often come here. Of course, for human beings, no matter whether they are mortals or warriors, they have to rely on the help of practitioners to come here. So we came here Most of the new villagers in Yunding Village are monsters."
"In this way, although the descendants of transformed monsters are human beings, and the descendants of human beings are also human beings, the number of monsters in the village has increased. Moreover, the new generation of human races often admire the prosperity of the mountains, which is not easy to stop, as long as they learn how to The people in the village will send them down the mountain and let them roam freely."
It makes sense and is in line with common sense.
After all, there are no monsters that have changed their forms, or monsters that live in their original form after being transformed. The offspring are still ordinary beasts, or the trait of "monsters" cannot be inherited. And the monsters after transformation, whether it is between a transformation monster and a transformation monster, or between a human and a transformation monster, the offspring are still pure human beings.
In this case, if it is still the original five households, only human beings will be left in the village. Even if the monsters continue to practice after transforming into forms, the extension of lifespan will not violate this law.
Then, Fang Chang asked, why Zhu Zi regarded him as a thief when he first entered the village.
Zhao Chong said with a heavy tone:
"Your Excellency must also be able to see that the pillar is actually a monster." He paused for a while, and then continued when Fang Chang nodded; "Actually, he has not been here for a long time, only a few months. "
"Originally, he lived in his own village. Because of his good ability of illusion, he hid his identity very well, lived in peace with the villagers, and lived comfortably. But suddenly the world became chaotic, and the world was no longer peaceful. , As a result, the village where they lived was also affected."
Hearing this, Fang Chang suddenly had some guesses about what happened to Zhu Zi before, so he sighed slightly.
Just listen to Zhao Chong, the leader of Yunding Village, continue to say: "They escaped the war, but they didn't escape the bandits. Although the bandits pass like combing soldiers, they didn't encounter the comb, but were hit by the comb."
"The specific things, Zhuzi is always very emotional, so I can't explain clearly. But we only know that those thieves and bandits broke into the village and turned it into a piece of white land. The surviving villagers were scattered in all directions, which was terrible."
"But Zhuzi's cultivation base is low, he didn't make any achievements in resistance, and he blamed himself a little bit. Everyone's persuasion always didn't work. Even if he settled down in Yunding Village now, he often stayed on the day when the bandits invaded. The memory did not come out, and there were often amazing moves.”
"So I still look at Mr. Fang Haihan. Zhuzi is actually a poor child. I don't know when he will be able to break through this hurdle."
