Everything Has an End, Everything Has a Beginning (Part 7)
Aono: What do you mean?
She's a child whose IQ is increasing rapidly, but she's still just a child, not old enough to understand such mystical topics.
Ye Xiqing didn't say anything more, but smiled and patted her fluffy head: "Perhaps when you grow up, you will have a deeper understanding of this world."
Everyone knows that Ye Xiqing's apparent silence is actually a way of prompting people to think.
But Qingye was different from others. Qingye was just a child. Hearing Ye Xiqing say this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said happily, "Okay, Master, then I won't think about it anymore!"
Ye Xiqing: ...
If the environment were good, the system would have been laughing long ago, but it's not in the mood right now, so it's the viewers in the live stream who are bursting into laughter.
In so many worlds, you, Qing Shen, the ancient Greek god who controls people's hearts, skillfully send down trials on people's hearts in various worlds, writing brainwashing scripts, and never failing.
This is the first time I've ever seen someone say to her, "If you don't tell me, then I won't think about it anymore," hahaha!
Ye Xiqing, the "mental demon," has succeeded so many times that watching her fail is all the more interesting.
Ye Xiqing withdrew her hand and smiled indifferently.
Only lower animals don't think; it seems she's taken in a fool.
But believe it or not, fools are happy. After taking a nap, Qingye completely forgot what Ye Xiqing had said earlier.
They've truly forgotten everything; not a single trace remains.
With the blessing of the magic, her body became more and more agile, and she loved to run around. Children's energy is inexhaustible, let alone her super-powered child.
She wouldn't remember things she doesn't understand. If she can't remember them, they probably aren't important, right?
Ye Xiqing: ...
Ye Xiqing wanted to plant a seed in young Qingye's heart, but little Qingye's heart was made of stone and no crops could grow there.
Unable to be selected, Ye Xiqing had no choice but to abandon treatment and continue the reconstruction project of Qingmu Village.
Although she is a deity with the ability to summon wind and rain.
But this bizarre world, even in its bizarre state, still adheres to the law of conservation of matter.
According to the principle of conservation of matter, she cannot create water out of thin air; she can only manipulate water.
The reason for the drought, according to this world's worldview, is the depletion of water veins.
Forced rainfall will not only fail to alleviate the disaster, but will also exacerbate the depletion of water resources, which is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.
Therefore, Ye Xiqing would go to places with abundant water veins every day to borrow some water.
It can not only alleviate the drought in Qingmu Village, but also reduce the burden on areas where the water veins are too swollen, preventing flooding. It's a win-win situation for everyone.
However, she overlooked one problem: since there is a water vein setting, the water vein is very likely to have an owner.
As usual, she traveled thousands of miles by flying boat to fetch water from all corners of the world when suddenly some unknown creature jumped out and roared at her, "Who dares to steal my water veins!"
Ye Xiqing stopped what she was doing. She was a reasonable person and said sincerely, "My hometown is suffering from a drought. I am borrowing water to save lives. I will only take a small amount of water and will not harm the water veins of your area."
The water guardian sneered, "What does your drought have to do with me? Get out of here!"
His attitude was a bit fierce, but it didn't matter; Ye Xiqing was still a very reasonable person.
He raised his hand and snapped his head off.
Is there a relationship now?
When Ye Xiqing returned, she not only brought back water from several Water Control Pearls, but also the inner core of a water monster.
By injecting the inner core into the water vein, the water monster's power, which is very strong for mortals, is merely a drop in the ocean for the water vein.
The massive water system would never be restored, but suddenly water appeared in the well of Aoki Village, and everyone was overjoyed, happily drawing water for drinking and cooking.
Ye Xiqing unloaded the grain she had bought from elsewhere. It was also due to the principle of conservation of matter that crops were nurtured by the earth's veins and had to grow little by little. If the earth's veins were stimulated, it would be bad for them, so she had to buy them from elsewhere.
Anyway, Ye Xiqing wasn't afraid of running errands. She had mineral deposits in several mountains, so she wasn't worried about not having money and just kept transporting them.
The survivors who obtained food and water spontaneously became Ye Xiqing's fanatical followers, bowing down in gratitude for the god's protection!
Ye Xiqing stopped them. She was not a god; she was doing this with human will.
The survivors didn't know the difference, but whatever she said went, and from then on they stopped calling her a goddess and called her "the sage".
The "Sage" Ye Xiqing entrusted the new Water Control Pearl to Qingye for safekeeping. When the crops needed watering, he could simply cast a spell to release the water.
It's definitely better to collect several at once than to collect only when there's a shortage.
According to her survey of the water veins, it should be restored in about two years, without having to go through all this trouble.
Aono collected the crystal-clear glass beads in amazement. These tiny things could provide the villagers with water for a year. It must be wonderful to be a god!
However, compared to the Water Control Pearl, she had something else she was looking forward to. She tugged at Ye Xiqing's sleeve, looking like she wanted to say something.
Ye Xiqing looked at her, unmoved, but Qingye did not give up at all, still looking at her with bright eyes.
Ye Xiqing confronted her for a while before finally giving in and pulling out snacks she had bought in the bustling capital from her sleeve.
Although Aono can eat "flowers", who wouldn't love the sweetness of sugar cakes and the savory aroma of meatballs? He immediately jumped for joy!
Stuff your mouth with a piece of sweet cake, and the sweet taste will instantly fill your mouth. There is nothing happier in the world than this.
After stuffing it all in, I thought about it and hid half of it, breaking the other half into small pieces to share with my friends.
This kind of sugar cake is a rare item brought by her master, and everyone would be very envious!
The villagers who remain are very devout to Ye Xiqing and naturally have great respect for Qingye.
When people were being selected to enter the village, Ye Xiqing asked Qingye if she wanted her family members to come in.
Upon hearing this, Aono nodded without hesitation.
When she was abandoned, she was filled with endless panic and fear, but surprisingly, she felt no hatred.
Perhaps because of the inertia of those fond memories before the drought, and because she was too young to have learned to hate.
She was heartbroken at the time, but she didn't hold a grudge against the only person she ever loved. Since she didn't feel hatred then, she can't be said to be holding a grudge now.
She herself didn't hold grudges, so Ye Xiqing didn't need to hold grudges for her and brought her family over.
Upon learning of A-Ye's plight, her family immediately rallied around her, leaving only A-Ye's mother, Ji-Tao, with mixed feelings.
However, what happens to the mother and daughter is not something Ye Xiqing needs to worry about.
Since Ye Xiqing did not experience widespread rainfall across the disaster area, the number of people she could accommodate was naturally limited, approximately three hundred, mostly women.
This time, it wasn't that Ye Xiqing deliberately selected the characters; rather, it was quite obvious that, judging from the names of the main characters, the historical background was likely the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.
Although the main characters and plot do not show any trace of the original features of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, it gives the feeling that the Confucianism was the only ideology after thousands of years of suppression of other schools of thought, and that the ideas have become so ingrained that they have overflowed.
However, the world did faithfully replicate the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period background in the mortal realm. Besides respecting the original work, Ye Xiqing felt that the number of mortals during this period could be reasonably small.
As time goes by, conditions will inevitably become more difficult, but one's mindset may not necessarily change.
Because of the pollution caused by "civilization diseases," it is very similar to the strange tales of rules.
The more one understands, the more one is corrupted; the more one conforms, the more powerful the rules become; the more powerful the rules become, the stronger their ability to distort understanding, and the easier it is for people to be corrupted by them.
During this period, firstly, the power of rules was not as strong as it would be in later generations; secondly, humans at this time were still primitive, and spiritual pollution could not control their animal instincts.
At the very least, women in this era would never commit suicide because they had sex with a man who was not their husband.
Meanwhile, the feudal lords of this period were constantly having epileptic fits and fighting, which was draining their men's resources.
The remaining women weren't deliberately chosen; there were simply more of them.
When the women arrived in the village, they immediately began clearing the wasteland, planting whatever they could. Even with Ye Xiqing transporting grain, they felt more at ease growing their own produce.
Ye Xiqing certainly wouldn't farm, but she would offer help.
With a flick of his finger to the ground, oxen appeared one after another, and the villagers excitedly went to harness them to plow the fields, further increasing their reverence for the sage.
However, Ye Xiqing was very dissatisfied: "Since it's all an illusion, and everything in reality is driven by my immortal power, why can't I conjure up a tractor? At worst, I'll just lose a little more of my immortal power."
world:……
Ye Xiqing could tolerate the world of cultivation using C language, but he absolutely could not allow immortal power to turn into a tractor!
The official explanation given by the world is that it is a magical artifact, capable of only transforming into known things in this world; the tractor is not one of them.
Ye Xiqing then asked, "So, in this context, I can just create a tractor?"
world:……
Although Ye Xiqing's idea was bizarre, after carefully examining the world, she found that although it was a cultivation world, it did not prohibit the use of technology, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
Ye Xiqing instantly became interested and pulled out a piece of Soul Science Mechanical Knowledge. This didn't require an exam or too much memorization; it could be used as needed.
But after reading it, Ye Xiqing felt that cultivating immortality was simpler; indeed, cultivating immortality was the better option.
Taking advantage of his free time, Ye Xiqing gathered all the villagers together.
Cultivating immortality is truly a wonderful thing, and wonderful things should be shared with everyone.
...
In ancient times, there were few better ways to deal with natural disasters than to leave one's homeland, and most of them died on the way.
Those who settled in a new place generally didn't have the strength to return. In ancient times, when transportation was underdeveloped, traveling was inherently a very dangerous thing.
So when a natural disaster is so severe that people have to abandon their homes and flee, the land is basically abandoned. Even if it comes back to life, it has to wait for new people to come and cultivate it. However, the post station is an exception.
An unimaginable famine had occurred here before, leaving nine out of ten houses empty. But beyond the wasteland, a very prosperous village appeared.
Snake-eyed man couldn't help but drool at the sight of so many people in such a desolate place.
It has become a serpent monster that has come to power, and no longer preys on lower creatures, but has begun to prey on humans.
Snake-eyed Lang transformed into a human and entered the village, intending to first deceive the villagers. Unexpectedly, the old woman at the village entrance, who was chatting away and laughing heartily, shouted upon seeing him for the first time: "Monster!"
Snake-Eyed Man was still unaware of how he had revealed his weakness when he saw a group of villagers chasing after him, wielding hoes and brooms and yelling.
Snake-Eyed Man was startled, but after all, he was a demon who had achieved great cultivation. Why would he be afraid of a group of mortals?
He immediately revealed his true form, intending to teach these fools a lesson. The fools then made hand seals and formed a sword formation... a hoe formation... something like that.
Snake-Eyed Man stared dumbfounded at the villagers' skillful movements. No, what kind of sect is this, establishing a branch in the mortal realm?
Thinking something was wrong, I quickly ran away, only to turn around and see a child holding a pinwheel, who had just come back from outside.
Enraged, and filled with malice, Snake-Eyed Man disregarded the circumstances and opened his mouth to snatch the child away.
Unexpectedly, the child neither dodged nor avoided the windmill, which quickly transformed into a sword blade, piercing through its seven-inch mark.
Snake-Eyes Lang probably never imagined he would die like this. He stared blankly at the child, wondering what had happened to this village...
The crowd surged forward to witness Snake-Eyed Man's tragic end.
In this desolate wilderness, people shouldn't be too careful.
