The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 719
Pei Wende didn't think about this "little cave" until the Lord himself brought the vegetarian meal to the table.

Not daring to eat with the venerable Pei Wende, after serving the food on the table, the Earth Lord left the small courtyard very respectfully.

Only those curious weasels hid aside and looked curiously at Pei Wende and the green snake on his neck.

"He's more 'awe' than 'respect' towards you now..."

"It seems that your previous intimidation has worked, at least he doesn't dare to perfunctory you anymore."

Seeing this situation, a human smile appeared on Xiaoqing's face immediately.

Out of snake instinct, Xiaoqing's sense of that weasel land lord is not very good, and he even has the urge to eat him.

"Fear power but not virtue, this is the survival instinct of most lives, and few people can violate it."

"As long as the Landlord doesn't deceive us, then we don't need to hold on to each other's personal virtues."

Picking up the tofu cooked specially for him by Di Gong with his chopsticks, Pei Wende had to admit that although the other party was timid, this culinary skill was indeed top-notch.

Or to put it another way, the Lord of the Land is obviously a guy who knows how to enjoy life, otherwise he wouldn't be so good at playing with the wind.

"He may not have lied to you, but he can hide some news that is not good for him."

Although Xiaoqing is not a human being, she has been with Pei Wende for so long, and she still has some understanding of the basic operating rules of human society.

"For example, the granaries in his backyard. I don't believe that he paid for the grain in them."

Ever since she fell in love with drinking, Xiaoqing has an extremely sensitive perception of Datang's food prices.

Especially in a disaster-stricken place like Runzhou, it is obviously impossible for the Land God to hoard so much grain through formal channels.

Those bandits who blocked the road and robbed the official roads before, and the profiteers they called "hoarding goods for strange things", there is a high probability that there is a land owner.

"So this is the result of the uncoordinated virtue."

"But this is inevitable in the process of a society functioning on its own, and there is not much we can do."

After a slight look, Pei Wende couldn't help but put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand.

As a person who can't rub his eyes, Pei Wende naturally can't understand the various actions of the land master.

But he knew better that this was the result of a problem with the entire social order.

Today he can forcefully replace a land guild with his own anger, but he can't guarantee that the next high-ranking land guild will be more suitable than the current weasel.

Considering the current situation in Runzhou City, the new land lord is likely to be more hateful than the current land lord.

In such a big environment, there is actually a limit to what an individual can do.

"You don't seem like the 'because you can't do it, don't do it' kind of person!"

She glanced at Pei Wende in surprise, Xiaoqing knew very well that the other party's personality would not turn back if she hit the south wall, and would not turn back if she hit the south wall.

To put it bluntly, this is called uprightness and hatred.

To put it bluntly, this is recklessness and stubbornness, not knowing how to protect oneself wisely.

The only good thing is that Pei Wende has enough strength to practice the "justice" in his heart.

"Since I promised not to pursue the past of the other party, I will naturally not violate my promise."

"But if someone traces it afterwards, it has nothing to do with me."

When saying these words, Pei Wende suddenly showed a rare sly smile.

"If he can adjust his mentality in time, he can naturally continue to be the land owner."

"But if he continues to dereliction of duty, someone will come to trouble him."

This time it was Xiaoqing's turn to be speechless, she knew that Wen Wende could not let this inactive, incompetent, and even involved in hoarding the land so easily.

【Since when did you become so treacherous? 】

Through telepathy, she complained about Pei Wende, but all Xiaoqing saw was a slight smile on the other party's face.

[When the problem cannot be solved by violence, I actually don't mind playing tricks. 】

......................................................................................................

While Pei Wende was eating, he was in another small room inside the shrine.

The land lord who had just retreated was watching everything that happened in the small yard through a bronze mirror.

As a matter of course, the land lord also heard the conversation between Pei Wende and Xiaoqing, and a helpless wry smile appeared on his face.

"Oh, it's not that the little old man likes to be alone, it's really that the world forces the little old man to be alone."

Muttering to himself, the Earth Lord couldn't help but think of the real dragon in the Suolong Well.

"Even those existences that are indistinguishable from gods eventually died due to entanglements in previous lives. How dare the little one ignore the lessons learned from the past?"

As the land god of Zheng'er Bajing in Runzhou, although he has never seen the real dragon with his own eyes, he only knows all the experiences before and after the real dragon.

It is said that the real dragon who was active in the Southern and Northern Dynasties was a dragon girl, who was born with compassion and supernatural powers.

Under the protection of the dragon girl, the weather in Runzhou is smooth and the people live in peace every year.

Until the wars at the end of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, although the dragon girl had great powers, how could she escape the disputes in the chaotic world?
As a result, the dragon girl who was involved in the dispute could no longer maintain the wind and rain in Runzhou, which indirectly caused natural disasters and severe droughts in Runzhou for several years.

In that kind of situation where there is no one out of ten of the thousands of living beings, the dragon girl was finally intercepted by the living beings she once protected, and was beheaded in the territory of Runzhou. Even the corpses were suppressed under Suolongjing.

From the moment he knew this story, the land lord deeply understood a truth—Sheng Mien and Dou Michou.

Especially in today's era, which is similar to the last years of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the best way to survive this chaotic era is to avoid karma and protect yourself wisely.

And this is also the only part of the past that the land master concealed from Pei Wende when he explained the cause of the incident.

"That's all! The little old man has been greedy for life and afraid of death for so many years, it's time to be brave."

Having said that, the Lord of the Land turned his eyes away from Pei Wende and turned to the weasels outside the yard.

Those weasels are all the sons and nephews of the land lord, which is also the real reason why he has not made up his mind to hide.

But to this day, the Lord of the Land knows that he cannot escape.

Even for the sake of his descendants and nephews, he had to help Pei Wende resolve this incident.
