When Fang Zheng heard this, he was a little moved, but after a second thought, he gave up and asked: "What happens after you solve the puzzle?"
"Once the puzzle is solved, tourism can be developed. If people come and make money, won't the people nearby become rich?" Hong Hai'er said matter-of-factly.
Fang Zheng chuckled, looked at the unhappy Lone Wolf, and asked, "Jingfa, what do you think about this?"
The lone wolf yawned and said, "When I was a child, I thought the mountains were the whole world. Later, when I grew up, I found that the mountains had become smaller. Originally, there were many more two-legged monsters in our hunting area. They killed wolves.
, killing pigs, killing rabbits... Basically all our prey was wiped out. Even the wolves in the group died a lot, so we kept running into the mountains. However, the mountains are really getting smaller and smaller...
"
Having said this, Lone Wolf raised his head and said: "The space left for wild animals is getting smaller and smaller. Let's leave a piece of it. Humans are not the only ones who want to survive in this world."
As soon as Lone Wolf said this, Fang Zheng looked at Lone Wolf in surprise. He didn't expect this idiot to have such a high level of ideological consciousness!
At this time, the monkey also said: "I agree with my senior brother. In the past, the products on Baiyun Mountain were very rich. All kinds of wild fruits were enough for me to eat and drink. But then humans came up the mountain, and when the fruits ripened,
They plucked them all, and many monkeys starved to death because they had nothing to eat. Some monkeys did not accumulate enough fat and could not survive the winter and froze to death. I had no choice at the time, so I ran into Baiyun Temple to steal food... If I could
, let it stay there. Human beings already have the best land in the world, so there is no need to kill them all."
The squirrel then raised its paws and shouted: "Yes, yes... I'm telling you, there are still people grabbing pine nuts from me on Tongtian Mountain! I used to be able to get a bag casually, but now many people go to the mountain to hunt pine nuts. I
If I want to eat pine nuts, I have to run a long way...I often encounter snakes and other things, and I have to run, which makes me exhausted."
After hearing these words, Fang Zheng looked at Honghai'er and asked, "Do you still think that solving unsolved mysteries and developing tourist areas is a way of doing good deeds?"
Honghai'er was dumbfounded, but for the sake of his own little skin, he still said forcefully: "Then... development doesn't mean driving away wild animals, right? Isn't there an original ecological tourist area? And... don't crack this future
To solve the mystery, can we just watch people running in to die one by one?"
Fang Zheng patted Red Boy's head and said: "Once it is developed, no matter whether it is an original tourist area or not, people's intervention in the animal world will disrupt the original order. This is wrong after all. As for the dead people you mentioned, the past
We can't control it. Now, the state has come forward to control it. Are we more powerful than the state? I heard from Donor Tan that in the past two years, there has been no human life. Okay, don't worry about it. There is
At this time, it would be more practical to pick up two more buckets of water."
After sending away Red Boy, Fang Zheng continued to read Buddhist scriptures with peace of mind. As for the matter of working on the rice bowl, he had completely given up.
Two days passed quickly, and it was exactly four days. Fang Zheng climbed up to the big water tank and looked at the white jade cabbage inside. A lot of water had been squeezed out, but the water was not enough to submerge all the white jade cabbage. So.
Fang Zheng took some rootless purified water and poured it into it. He checked the degree of pickling of the cabbage, clapped his hands with satisfaction, and continued to read Buddhist scriptures.
On this day, footsteps suddenly came from outside the Yizhi Temple. Fang Zheng looked up and saw Tan Juguo and Wang Yougui walking over with solemn expressions. After greeting Fang Zheng, they silently entered the Buddhist hall.
Went to pay homage to the Buddha. Looking at the appearance of the two of them, it seemed that something had happened, so that their minds were a bit uncontrollable, and they had to rely on praying to the Buddha to feel at ease.
After the two of them finished worshiping the Buddha and came out, Fang Zheng stepped forward and asked, "Two donors, what happened?"
Tan Juguo sighed: "Something happened indeed. There was a big commotion at the rice bowl."
"Huh?" Fang Zheng asked doubtfully, "Isn't that the mountain has been closed? Could someone sneak in and something happened?"
"No, this matter is a bit strange to say." Wang Yougui said with a solemn expression: "No one entered the rice bowl... but a villager from a village next to the rice bowl suddenly fainted two miles away from the rice bowl.
Originally this was nothing, but the problem was that the people who ran to the rescue fainted one after another. I don’t know what kind of evil they were possessed by... Strangely enough, it was the guy Gao Laowu who ran over and nothing happened.
. He carried out the three fainted people one by one. Now the three people are still lying in the hospital. Their lives are not in danger, but this incident has made people panic. Some people say that they were the ones who died in the rice bowl.
Monsters come out to eat people. Some people also say that the evil energy inside leaks out and hurts people. Only people with strong Yang Qi and sufficient righteousness can be protected from harm."
When Fang Zheng heard this, he rolled his eyes and said in his heart: "Nonsense!"
But Fangzheng didn't say this. He didn't believe it because he understood Buddhism and what kind of environment can produce ghosts. In such a bad environment as the earth, if a ghost were really brought to the world, it would probably degenerate into an ordinary beast. Unless it becomes a normal beast.
A big monster like Hong Hai'er, otherwise the ordinary mountain spirit Ye Mei would not be able to bear the harsh environment of this world. Just like human beings in a hypoxic environment, death is a matter of time...
However, Fang Zheng couldn't say this to Tan Juguo and Wang Yougui. He just clasped his hands and said, "Amitabha, the two donors, are you afraid that the evil spirit will come to Yizhi Village?"
Wang Yougui sighed: "It's true that I'm a little scared. There have been several incidents in the past two days, and people in each village have become more vigilant. Now Gao Laowu has become a celebrity, and each village invites him to be in charge. Let's point out the distance between the villages.
There is some distance over there, but you still have to take precautions in advance. Is this considered a precaution? Now the young and middle-aged people in our village are always on call... I just don’t know if any of them can be like Gao Laowu, who is not afraid of evil spirits.
. Hey, that’s not right, Abbot Fangzheng, you shouldn’t be afraid, right?”
Fang Zheng smiled and said: "Donor, don't worry, if there is really evil coming, the poor monk will naturally be willing to take action."
Hearing what Fang Zheng said, Wang Yougui suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's right. We have you in our village, so we are not afraid of this. Besides, our village and the rice bowl are separated by the Tongtian Mountains. No matter how strong the evil spirit is, it is impossible to overcome it."
Will you come across mountains and ridges to find us?"
Fang Zheng nodded in agreement, and then sent Wang Yougui and Tan Juguo away.
"Master, it's already like this, why don't we take action?" Hong Boy looked a little excited.
Fang Zheng rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why are you so excited?"
PS: I saw someone asking whether dry rice bowls really exist, and the answer is: they do exist. There are indeed dry rice bowls in Changbai Mountain, but there are many places called dry rice bowls. It is said that only one dry rice bowl is dangerous. You can check it on Baidu.
