Kill me a few more times and I'll be invincible
Chapter 313
Qiao Mu thought, isn't this nonsense? He is not a person who has drunk chicken soup and become stupid.
"So I gave the folks of Taotie City the Touchstone, which was originally a good intention." The ethereal voice said:
"It's just that people are greedy, and all people are defeated by the greed in their hearts."
"When their greed is out of control and they can't control the money I gave them, they will be dominated by money in turn and become slaves of greed."
"So, the source of the chaos in this Taotie City has never been me, let alone the Touchstone."
"It's the greed in people's hearts, as deep as the sea..." The voice sighed slightly, and there seemed to be a hint of compassion in the tone.
"If virtue is not in line with the position, there will be disaster."
"If you have too much money, but your mind can't match it, you will be swallowed by your own desires."
Qiao Mu listened quietly to the voice's narration, and carefully observed the surroundings, as if to find the location of this ethereal voice.
"In fact, what I did was just a game about human nature." The ethereal voice continued:
"I just say to every poor person who enters this temple and begs me..."
"If I give you a touchstone, it will bring you endless gold and endless money."
"Will your life be better or worse?"
The ethereal voice paused for a moment and became low:
"Everyone."
"Everyone gave me the same answer."
"Of course it will be better."
"But in the past three years... they have all been wrong."
Yang Xiaoqian, who got the touchstone, hid the money at home, pretended to be an ordinary person to get along with his family, and secretly became the boss behind the Shanzhenlou.
Using a little bit of gold and silver leaking from his fingertips as a reward, he made his brother, who was a helper, cheer and jump for joy, and wanted to work hard for the restaurant owner, and easily manipulated his brother's joys and sorrows.
But in the end, he also broke off his relationship with his biological parents.
The head of the Luo family, who got the Touchstone, turned the gold that the Touchstone turned into a business, which revitalized the whole family. He also spread the legend of the Golden Country through the merchant Luo Cheng and other family members, trying to make the consensus of the Golden Country the consensus of the entire Southwest State.
"Among those who got the Touchstone, no one was content with a small fortune." The voice whispered:
"Either they became arrogant because of money, or their greed expanded day by day... In the end, they did not end well."
"Money is a good thing. But in this test, everyone is a loser."
"Your reasoning is quite smooth." Qiao Mu said lightly.
He paced in this small broken temple, his eyes swept around, and suddenly became sharp.
"It's just..."
Qiao Mu stopped, stomped his feet on the ground, and burst out with the Eight Steps of the Heavenly Dragon in an instant.
In an instant, his figure turned into a residual shadow, rushing straight to the broken statue... the gold ingot in his hand.
"But who the hell are you? Do the people need you to test them? Do they need you to reason with them? What about the saints and gods who pretend to be you?"
"Demons disintegrate!"
He clenched his iron fist, and the surging Qi turned into blood and penetrated his body, and he punched the gold ingot in the hands of the God of Wealth.
Buzz buzz buzz.
The sound of the iron fist hitting the gold ingot was like a bell, echoing in this small broken temple.
The strong wind swept in all directions, and the gold ingot painted with gold slammed on the temple wall, causing the already dilapidated and half-collapsed temple wall to fall down, raising a circle of dust.
The huge gold ingot floated up from the collapsed temple wall, floating in the air by itself, and a fist of golden light rippled around it.
Obviously, the gold ingot in the hands of the statue of the God of Wealth is the so-called Golden Country monster.
The gold ingot is not gold, not even copper, but just a stone painted with a layer of gold.
Perhaps it was because of this that when the golden ingot statue turned into a monster, it possessed the innate magical power of turning stone into gold.
Chapter 305 Golden Body (4k)
The golden ingot made of stone was suspended in the air, with a circle of golden light radiating from its body, illuminating the surroundings.
In this already dilapidated and decaying temple, the golden light became brighter and more holy.
Qing Li saw this scene, and was obviously not in a very good mood, and was somewhat uninterested.
She came here to pursue the treasure of the Golden Country, but this scene obviously did not meet her expectations.
"Actually, what it said just now..."
Qiao Mu looked back at Qing Li in surprise:
"You didn't listen carefully?"
Qing Li did not answer, but just said to himself:
"I once heard someone say that if someone talks about some high-sounding principles in front of you, you should be careful."
"Such a person, nine out of ten times, has other intentions in mind, but just uses words to cover it up."
"What do you want to say?" Qiao Mu asked.
Qing Li suddenly said this, obviously not to discuss the character of Yuanbao Monster with him.
"This Yuanbao Monster, it is said that it often gives the Midas Stone to poor people and intervenes to change other people's lives, so what is it for?"
"There may really be kind people in this world who help others for no reason, but do you think it looks like one?"
Qing Li is a native of Southwest State and also a half-monster.
In fact, he has dealt with many monsters in the Ten Thousand Mountains.
In fact, most of the monsters in this world are difficult to measure with human morality and human laws.
"Are you a strange stone demon that feeds on people's desires?" Qing Li judged:
"I heard that most of these alien species have a certain ability to confuse people's minds."
"Use the Philosopher's Stone to arouse the desires of mortals. They take the Philosopher's Stone from your hand and get immeasurable gold, and you feed on the desire and greed to strengthen yourself?"
In the ancient times when spiritual energy was abundant, the mainstream was the demon race that absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for cultivation. The so-called alien species were only a few alien species born under special circumstances.
It's just that the version is different now.
In today's era, even the immortal cultivators who are the overlords of heaven and earth, relying on incense to assist their cultivation, have still declined a lot, at most until the stage of becoming gods, let alone the demon clan who are not as good as the immortal cultivators.
These alien species born in special environments have a higher upper limit in this era.
"Everyone gets what they need." Yuanbao Demon did not deny it, but just sneered:
"The human heart is like an abyss, why do you need me to confuse you?"
"But there are always some mortals who are stupid and unaware of themselves..." Yuanbao Demon said lightly:
"Qiao Rong, I'm talking about you."
Yuanbao Yao let out a deep laugh, and the sound spread: "You don't really think that you are slaying demons and eliminating harm for the people, do you--"
But this deep laughter stopped abruptly just as it started.
A bloody figure rose into the air again, and suddenly hit the shining golden ingot demon. It smashed the huge golden ingot with a pair of iron fists, causing clear cracks and knocking away the dust.
The Yuanbao Demon cracked directly, but under the broken stone skin, there was also a piece of gold with a faint metallic luster.
"Are you going to help me change my mind?"
The stone skin around the Yuanbao Demon's body was cracked, and its body was slightly smaller than before, but the golden light around its body became brighter.
"This is Taotie City, a small mountain city among hundreds of thousands of mountains." Yuanbao Demon floated up again, but his voice was a little more annoyed.
"In three years, the legend of Golden Land has spread for three years."
"The entire Shiwanda Mountain is just the back garden of Yunxiao Sect. Do you think things in this city can be hidden from Yunxiao Sect?"
"I have been a member of the Yunxiao Sect for a long time, but it is you, a foreigner, who has ruined the tranquility of this place and ruined the layout of this place for many years."
"This has just begun, and you're ready to show off backstage? You're so fierce, you're such a waste." Qiao Mu didn't hear him finish, he just focused on himself and exploded with all his energy, punching the Yuanbao Demon one after another.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
Every time a punch is struck, golden light overflows, and the sound is like ringing a bell. The sound shakes the mountains and forests and spreads far away.
What makes Qiao Mu a little strange is that this Yuanbao Demon doesn't seem to have any powerful attack methods, but just dodges frequently.
Every time it is hit several times, the Yuanbao Demon's body will crack, and its body will continue to shrink, but the golden light will become brighter and brighter.
Soon, Yuanbao Yao's body was hit by dozens of punches, and flew backwards like a sharp arrow, flying to the Taotie City.
This abandoned temple was originally not far from Taotie City. Qiao Mu chased after it and reached the gate area of Taotie City.
"Who are you? This is the God of Wealth, how can you be blasphemous..." An old man in gold and jade came out of the city gate, pointed at the tree and shouted angrily, his whole body trembling slightly with anger.
"Without the God of Wealth, the gold in this Taotie City will just be broken stones? Can you afford it?"
But no one paid any attention to him.
A figure covered in bloody energy stepped into the void and shot straight towards the Yuanbao Demon suspended in the air like a sharp arrow.
"The waves are strong, three times, four times."
The surging energy was like a mountain roaring and a tsunami, spurting out as Qiao Mu waved his fists.
If Qing Li is a top martial artist who is proficient in the use of physical force, then Qiao Mu is at the pinnacle of skill in using internal energy. Even Taizu Taiyan, who has lived for three hundred years on earth, cannot match him.
It's just that the layers of punching power are like overlapping waves, and it also requires a short period of time to accumulate momentum.
When Qiao Mu mobilized all his inner strength to create four waves, the Yuanbao Demon suffered such a heavy blow that it flew backwards like a meteor, like a golden meteor streaking across the sky.
The place where the meteor was castrated was the Taotie City behind.
"Qiao Long, you are so stupid." Yuanbao Demon's laughter echoed in the wind:
"That was my escape route...and then it was my turn."
With a loud bang, the Yuanbao Demon had already landed in the Taotie City with the powerful force of this punch.
..
Inside Luo's ancestral hall.
The head of the Luo family, leaning on his cane, once again summoned the children of the clan.
At this moment, in front of the long table in the ancestral hall, there is already a table full of gold, which is shining and very heroic.
"Clan leader, do you really want to share this gold with us?" Luo Cheng and others exclaimed.
"You can just take it." The clan leader coughed lightly and said.
After being visited by Qiao Mu yesterday to share the joy of making money, he almost couldn't carry it in one breath.
But at his age, what kind of ups and downs has he not seen? Is there any obstacle that cannot be overcome?
"Qiao Long has left. We, the Luo family, have to live our lives how we should."
The clan leader is a cautious person, and he actually hides a lot of gold in a secret cellar in the city.
Although the Philosopher's Stone is gone, there is still a whole cellar of gold at hand, enough for the Luo family to make a comeback.
The clan leader is not a selfless person, and his family's money cannot be freely distributed to his clan members.
But this gold is a business without capital. It is all turned into gold by turning stones into gold. It actually doesn't hurt to give it away.
If no one believes in this transformed gold, it will turn into stone again.
The people of the Luo family are united, and now that the clan is in trouble, he naturally wants to share some gold to stabilize the clan's hearts in order to make a comeback.
"Let's all divide it." The patriarch waved his hand:
"In the future, when we do this gold business, we must be more cautious and don't provoke people like Qiao Rong again."
The Luo family made their fortune in the Taotie City by relying on the gold business to deceive greedy speculators like Lao Yang.厎
Now that I have enough gold in hand, I just want to go through the same path three years ago...
The head of the Luo family was talking to the clan members, describing a beautiful vision for a comeback.
