I went to the temple after traveling through time, and he turned out to be a monk!

During the busy farming season in May, Wu Yong arrived at Danning with many of the things Bai Zhi had purchased. There were five cargo ships worth of everything.

Rushing to Danning, Wu Yong thought that Bai Zhi would greet him enthusiastically, or that this house would be a help in times of need.

Bai Zhi, however, was too busy to greet him and pulled Zhou Li to go out. Wu Yong was so anxious that he had no time to change his clothes and had to follow him.

Bai Zhi and Zhou Li kept urging him to go back, "We are going to the ground. If your legs and feet are not good, don't follow us!"

"Even if I have a lame leg, you shouldn't dislike me like this!!" Wu Yong was furious.

While making trouble, a few people walked into a farmhouse. It was very lively. There were about ten or twenty people. Bai Zhi also accepted the gift and was treated as a guest.

"Is this a happy event?" Wu Yong asked.

"No, it's because we are busy with farming." Bai Zhi explained, "We have a shortage of labor force here, there are many women and old people, and we can't do the work, so we have to work together to help!"

"I can understand that farming is busy, so why do you have to follow the etiquette?" Wu Yong said.

"I don't know which family this custom originated from. People who work don't have to be polite, but those of us who don't contribute have to be more polite!"

Zhou Li also ate the bitter vegetables wrapped in corn crumbs in a pot on the table, and added, "This is a specialty of tannins. The bosses in the city have no business to do, so they will visit these places during the busy farming season and order whatever they want. The gift helps them get through this difficult time, and when there is a harvest in the future, farmers will give priority to selling to these people who followed the gift. "

Wu Yong nodded while listening, "Although this sounds good, in the future, if a big businessman comes, every family will give him a gift, and then he will have to buy all the food for Danning!"

Bai Zhi: "Oh! What you said makes sense! Don't let it go!"

With Bai Zhi's approval, Wu Yong looked proud, "That's right! If I come here to do business, I'll do that!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, profiteer!" Bai Zhi complained about him.

"Well, there is no businessman without fraud!" Zhou Li also complained about him.

Wu Yong became anxious, "I mean, there is such a thing!"

"Okay! I know you kindly reminded me! But, although you are right, this custom can also help the people of Danning!" Bai Zhi laughed at him.

Zhou Li was full and kept drinking water. The corn stubble made his stomach bloated, as if he had eaten a bowl of pebbles, and he choked. While drinking water, he said, "Brother Wu doesn't know something. This tannin is People can hardly live anymore. There are many women who have lost their husbands and children. Several people drown themselves in rivers every day. No matter what method is used now, as long as we can hang them and move forward, we must not attack them. ”

Bai Zhi also choked and beat her chest, "Yes, we can talk about the future later! For people nowadays, this is a life-saving custom!"

Wu Yong also understood the two of them's hard work. As they walked around from house to house, the farmers' enthusiasm for work increased visibly, and the trip was worthwhile.

At dusk, they were preparing to return. The three of them got on the carriage. At this time, Bai Zhi wiped the sweat from her forehead and thought of Wu Yong's lame leg. "I'm sorry, I didn't even care about you. Your legs are still there." Does it hurt?"

Wu Yong was so moved that he cried in his heart, but he still looked relaxed, "What's the point! In the past, in the small fishing village, didn't we have to work so hard just to find a way to survive!"

Bai Zhi smiled, "Yes, life is getting better now."

Wu Yong came here this time and wanted to ask Bai Zhi something else. Zhou Li came from Baiyun Academy. He had also heard of this person, so he didn't treat him as an outsider, so he asked, "You... Still want to rebel? "

This question made Bai Zhi and Zhou Li stunned for a moment, and they really didn't know how to respond.

Wu Yong further explained, "Although the Kingdom of Chen has been initially settled, it will not be stable overnight. If you want to rebel, I can still support you. What I said has always been true! I want to see you come to the end more than Meng Ying." That location.”

Bai Zhi really thought about it carefully. After a long time, she solemnly replied to Wu Yong, "No, I don't want to rebel."

"Because of Meng Ying?"

"How is it possible? I hate war. Even if you have the intention, I also want to increase my strength, but I don't want to work hard in this life just to get to that position." Bai Zhi answered him seriously, "What's more, with the Mei family and Zhuo Yao and the others are still far behind in terms of our strength.”

"Do you believe Meng Ying can give you what you want?" Wu Yong had never trusted Meng Ying. He knew how indifferent those in high positions were.

"It's not that I believe him, it's just Mr. Wu. I have seen a better world, but I have not seen a perfect world. The process of history has not gone there yet. I can't use them as fuel to achieve my own ambitions. ”

"Do you know?" Bai Zhihu asked Wu Yong.

"what?"

"Those who are still alive now only live this life, and there is no next life."

Wu Yong was stunned. Such a simple and easy-to-understand sentence was so heavy that it made people breathless.

Wu Yong felt that he was almost trapped in the web woven by power. He wanted to keep climbing up and gain more power so as not to be controlled. After gaining power, he had to keep fighting just to keep his power.

that……

What is the purpose of getting power?

he couldn't help but ask himself.

He almost forgot his original intention. At first, he just wanted not to be bullied by others and to make his life better.

But now it is heading towards nothingness.

Wu Yong laughed out loud, "It's me... I'm confused."

He looked up at Bai Zhi and felt himself eclipsed.

Bai Zhi held her chin up and couldn't help but sigh, "I heard that due to the war, the registered population of Chen Kingdom has been reduced by half!"

"Half, half! What a concept! Thanos is not that cruel!"

"What is Thanos?" Zhou Li asked.

"It's just a monster. If he snaps his fingers, half of the people in the world will disappear instantly and be wiped out!" Bai Zhi snapped her fingers.

As soon as they snapped their fingers, both Wu Yong and Zhou Li felt numb. It was not a joke in the distant void, but the registered population of Chen Kingdom had truly been reduced by half, and most of them had already become desolate bones.

Only those who have experienced these eight years can understand that feeling.

So, people who are still alive now only live this life.

It should not be reduced to the dust of the times.

Bai Zhi sighed and slapped Wu Yong on the shoulder, "The time has come to make contributions! Don't bear grudges against the court. Although hatred has so much power, living for hatred, I always feel... not beautiful enough!"

"But we still have to gather strength. You never know when I will think the other way again. You have to be prepared at all times."

Wu Yong lowered his head and chuckled silently, "I understand."

"But now, no, we can't live for the purpose of rebellion. You two are missing arms and legs. How pitiful are you being dragged into a war now?"

Bai Zhi said, but found that the faces of the duo who were missing arms and legs turned ugly, and quickly changed the subject, "Mr. Wu... you married Chen Fu, did you really not regard her as your wife?"

When Wu Yong heard this, he couldn't help but trembled, "If I don't lift the pot, you might as well say I have missing legs."

"Oh..." Bai Zhi felt that she had said the wrong thing again, but she was really curious, "What should I do?"

Wu Yong glanced at her and said, "Let's just live like this. I can't be nice to her even if the well is not against the river. Remembering that her child is Yan Qi's son, I don't want to talk to them..."

Wu Yong said, stroking his lame leg. It's impossible. Qiu will never be forgotten.

"Okay, okay! I said the wrong thing, don't be angry!" Bai Zhi smiled playfully.

Wu Yong suddenly remembered something, "Have you remembered everything?"

Bai Zhi was also stunned for a moment, "Yeah."

"I remembered everything."
