When you are in doubt... ask your father.

The Golden Dragon King, who had been so idle in the seal that he counted the dragon scales on his body over and over again, was naturally very happy to tell his eldest son some gossip about the divine world in the past.

...To King Jinlong, this is gossip, but to Wang Rui, this is very valuable information.

In the words of the Golden Dragon King, among the five gods, only Destruction and Life received a little positive evaluation.

Judging from the words of the sharp-tongued old father of the auspicious beast, it seems that the goddess of life has more of the characteristics of a god in the traditional sense - she loves all living beings equally.

Of course, the original words of the Golden Dragon King were much more unpleasant to hear, but this did not prevent Wang Rui from speculating that the Goddess of Life was an idealist who longed for peace and equality.

So he took a big gamble.

The Emerald Swan Clan moved from the vicinity of the Lake of Life to under the Golden Tree. Part of the reason why they really needed to do so was because they really needed to do so, and part of the reason why they did so was to show the friendly and kind side of the soul beasts to the boss... Only the Emperor Beast himself knows this.

If Wang Rui lost the bet, he would just have to find a way to find White Gloves to blow up Shrek.

Fortunately, he won the bet.

Ten thousand years ago, when Tang San became a god, he did try to move the golden tree.

Most of the stars saw the shadow of a magnificent giant tree emerging from the golden tree. It was the real body of the Goddess of Life, the Ancient Tree of Life.

No one knew what the two gods discussed. In the end, Tang San retreated and no longer had any intention of attacking the golden tree.

...I don't know if he thinks the goddess of life has already found a way to die.

And thus the Jade City was established.

A utopian city dedicated to rescuing victims, providing equal treatment to all lives suffering from pain and pain, and promoting the idea of ​​peaceful coexistence between humans and soul beasts.

A city that is presented to the Goddess of Life, to gain prestige for the Beast Clan among humans, and also holds Wang Rui's tiny hope for the future of soul beasts.

This chapter is also a super second setting

I think this is reasonable_(:з」∠)_

I think it is reasonable to say that the Golden Tree evolves into the Ancient Tree of Life. I guess it is just that Tang Jia San Shao is not happy to create a new thing...

I think if there is a connection with the original work, if there is no auspicious beast in the original work, the golden tree is occupied by some soul beasts, and Tang San wants to transplant it to the school. The goddess of life may be easy to talk to and may give him face.

Anyway, there is no Blue Silver Emperor in this one now.

By the way, there may be another plot in the Beast Sect. I am not sure whether you would like to watch the original or the Shrek plot line...

Also, it seems that it is quite common to think that going to Sun and Moon is a trend, but what can I say about this book? It is really the soul beast camp. Humans are the same on both sides. Sun and Moon, who attach more importance to soul guides, are even a greater threat.

Also, there seems to be some problems with my author background recently. I went to the Qidian app to check my book and it seemed that there were a lot of comments, but from the background, there were no comments. Maybe they won’t reply or reply in time, but I will definitely read it.

The author is celebrating the holiday, so that’s all for today. I wish everyone a happy Dragon Boat Festival!

Chapter 35 Jade City

Wang Rui brought Huo Yuqing to Cuiyu City. The sky gradually brightened and the city slowly woke up. From time to time, humans or soul beasts passed by them.

Jade City is a circular city with the Golden Tree as its center. The surrounding buildings radiate outward in circles, and the entire city presents a concentric circle shape.

The city is divided into fan-shaped areas by different roads. The buildings with green roofs and brown walls are dotted with a large number of plants. The courtyards of the houses are full of the breath of life, and soul beasts even rest in some courtyards.

An owl-type soul beast flapped its wings, landed on a branch in a roadside courtyard, and began to doze off. A cat-type soul beast stretched lazily on the side of the road... Huo Yuqing even saw a golden monkey soul beast sitting cross-legged at the door of a yard, weaving a straw hat.

The people around seemed to be accustomed to such scenes.

"These soul beasts seem to be very smart." The girl said softly.

"When soul beasts live among humans, their intelligence will grow faster than when they live in the forest." Wang Rui reached out to touch the grass on the side of the road. "Although they still cannot reach the level of human intelligence, the intelligence of soul beasts living with humans is far superior to their counterparts living in the forest."

Soul beasts survive by instinct, but if they can be guided properly, their intelligence is actually not low.

Among the ordinary animals in his previous life, animals with obvious sociality such as wolves and lions possessed extraordinary intelligence, and whales and dolphins even had their own language and could communicate with each other.

Pet cats and dogs, which only live for a dozen years, can distinguish human commands, and trained orangutans can even communicate with humans through sign language!

This is true for ordinary animals, not to mention soul beasts whose lifespans are measured in tens of thousands of years. The long lifespans of soul beasts predestine that they cannot be without wisdom.

The key is a civilized environment.

Even if a healthy human being is isolated from human civilization for a long time, his mind will gradually degenerate to the same level as that of a beast.

"They will ignorantly learn and imitate humans." Wang Rui said softly, "Generally, soul beasts live in the forest in a muddleheaded way. Except for some naturally strong races who know to take the initiative to practice since childhood, most soul beasts will only grow according to instinct even if they have practiced for ten thousand years."

"As for those that live with humans in the city..." Wang Rui pointed to the soul beasts that could be seen on the streets, "They are more intelligent than the soul beasts in the forest, and they awaken to spiritual wisdom earlier. They are able to realize the importance of active cultivation. The smartest ones can even imitate human soul masters to meditate and practice."

At this moment, suddenly several colorful bird soul beasts flew over and circled above Huo Yuqing and Wang Rui's heads.

"Hello, outsiders! Welcome to Jade City! Welcome to Jade City!" These bird soul beasts said in funny and weird tones, "Please abide by the rules of this city and do not harm any soul beasts or humans in the city! Do not use any means to harm the soul beasts or humans in Jade City! Otherwise, bad things will happen!"

"How come they can all talk? Are these soul beasts also of a hundred thousand years' cultivation?" Huo Yuqing widened her eyes, looking at the fancy birds flying overhead in surprise.

"They are not hundred thousand year old soul beasts." Wang Rui smiled and shook his head. "These are wind-listening parrots that have cultivated for a thousand years. They are good at imitating various sounds. This kind of soul beasts hunt and intimidate enemies by imitating different sounds. Naturally, they can speak human language... In fact, they may not understand what they are saying."

"I understand!" one of the parrots screamed, while its companion was still repeating what he had just said. It was obviously smarter than the others. "Don't you dare scold me!"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong!" Wang Rui quickly pulled Huo Yuqing away from the area.

"What bad things did the parrot mention?" Huo Yuqing asked worriedly, "Will there really be no bad guys sneaking in to harm the soul beasts in the city?"

Wang Rui struggled for a moment and came up with a relatively tactful explanation, "Well, most intelligent creatures won't offend a healer who can save their lives. As for those who don't have very good brains and want to attack soul beasts when they see them... the closest to Emerald City is Gu City, and the soul masters and soul beasts there are all poisonous. So they occasionally need some living things... well, to test their own skills or something."

Although Jade City is a place where healing soul masters and soul beasts gather, it is also the most heavily guarded city among the five cities of the Beast Sect. The small black dots hovering in the sky are all raptor soul beasts, and the weakest ones have the combat power equivalent to that of Soul Douluo.

If someone really wants to cause trouble in Emerald City... you can first consider setting up a few tables.

Given the military strength of Emerald City, even if Moon came in person, he would be able to stop him for a while.

Huo Yuqing didn't think there was anything wrong with it. "My mother also taught me that if a person can't suppress his greed, then he deserves to be punished."

"Well said, young man." Something tapped her shoulder.

Huo Yuqing was startled. She looked back and saw a wrinkled face squeezed out from the trunk of a big tree, smiling at her kindly.

“Don’t be fooled by the fact that he can talk, but this guy doesn’t have 100,000 years of cultivation. Plant soul beasts cannot move, but they learn to speak human language earlier than ordinary soul beasts.” Wang Rui explained before she asked.

"That's right!" said the tree. "I will stand here for another 20,000 years before I can leave. Come on, extend your hand."

Several juicy purple fruits fell from the branches and landed in Huo Yuqing's palm.

"Take it and eat it, little human." The tree said kindly, "Remember to take my children to other parts of the continent after you finish eating!"

"Thank you!" Huo Yuqing thanked him politely, then wiped the fruit with her sleeve and handed it to Wang Rui, "Do you want it?"

"I don't want it." Wang Rui showed a strange expression on his face, "I suggest you be careful when eating it. Think about it, if the fruit is delicious or has any special effects, do you need to spread it everywhere?"

Huo Yuqing took a bite in disbelief, and her little face wrinkled up because of the sourness. However, she still had the fortitude to finish the extremely sour fruit and put away the core.

Wang Rui smiled and shook his head. He led Huo Yuqing to the commercial street in the middle of Cuiyu City. "This is the commercial district of Cuiyu City. There are many shops. I know someone who opened a shop here. I will introduce you to work there for a while."

"Thank you!" Huo Yuqing opened her eyes wide in surprise. Doesn't this mean that half of her goal has been achieved?

Looking forward along this street, at the end of the road is a columnar building. From afar, you can see many people and soul beasts gathered there, and the majestic and thick trunk of the golden tree is behind those buildings.

"The area near the roots of the golden tree is where the life energy is most concentrated. That's also where the healing soul masters and soul beasts in Jade City come to rescue the wounded." Wang Rui raised his head and said, "And this side is the trading market in Jade City."

Most of the houses on both sides of this street have sheds in front of them, and the roofs are covered with tangled green vines. Under each shed there are people or soul beasts setting up stalls.

“Can soul beasts set up stalls to sell things?” Huo Yuqing stared in disbelief at a purple-gray squirrel that was half a person’s height. The squirrel was slowly putting out pine cones as big as an adult’s head and pine needles as thick as knitting needles.

The squirrel noticed her words and nodded in a very human way, then picked up the sign placed aside and waved it towards them.

[Pine cones and pine needles of the 80,000-year-old troll pine. Pine cones with seeds are 50 gold soul coins each, pine needles are 3 gold soul coins each, and pine nuts are 5 gold soul coins each. ]

The price is very reasonable. For human beings, this is already a great thing.

Huo Yuqing stared at the sign in amazement.

The squirrel tilted its head, ran out from under the shed, stood up with its two front paws raised high, made a gesture of embracing the sky, and then stared at Huo Yuqing with a pair of black bean-like eyes.

"Uh, tree?" The girl guessed what the squirrel was trying to tell her. "Troll pine?"

The squirrel nodded, then kept its front limbs raised, and began to spin its upper body, then waved its arms like a windmill. Then, it made a nervous movement to escape, as if it was holding something.

The corner of Wang Rui's mouth twitched. This squirrel is really an acting genius. Look at this performance without props. It's at the level of a veteran actor!

"The troll pine hits people with its branches, and then it is very difficult for you to pick pine cones?" But Huo Yuqing found it very interesting, so she continued to guess.

The squirrel nodded vigorously and looked very happy. It crawled back under the shed, broke off a pine nut and handed it to Huo Yuqing.

"I don't have money to pay you..." Before the girl could finish her refusal, the squirrel forcefully stuffed the pine nuts into her hand and ran back to its own stall.

"Take it. This guy is thanking you for watching his act. The pine nuts of the troll pine are very nutritious and are great as snacks. The smell it emits can also help you concentrate." Wang Rui said with a smile.

"Won't it lose money doing business like this?" Huo Yuqing asked in some confusion. She rubbed the hard shell of the pine nut, and a pine and cypress fragrance emanated, which made her feel refreshed.

"Why would it lose money?" Wang Rui said with a smile, "Pine cones and the like grow on giant pine trees, and they usually eat them. In fact, in the earliest times, the soul beasts with better brains gathered here and exchanged the natural materials and treasures that were not suitable for them for some that were more suitable for them to assist in their cultivation. But bartering is troublesome after all, and gradually this form of buying and selling with money was formed."

"Later, there were also pills for sale specifically for soul beasts in Cuiyu City. Most soul beasts wanted to sell some small bits and pieces that were of no use to them to buy pills - of course, there were also humans who came out to set up stalls to make money."

They passed by several connected food stalls, where several food-related soul masters with not very high cultivation were selling their martial souls.

"But you can't expect the soul beasts to have any bargaining ideas in their little heads. They are not that smart. The value of these items has been specially estimated by someone." Wang Rui explained with a smile, "The soul beasts' thinking is still at a very simple exchange level."

The basic daily necessities in Cuiyu City will be provided by the city, but if you want to buy pills or other things, you have to earn money yourself.

There are more ways to make money than just setting up stalls in the commercial district. There are also many jobs in Cuiyu City that require manpower to complete.

In fact, the city's economic system and social structure are very fragile and incomplete. But this is not a purely human city after all. Soul beasts with simpler minds account for most of the population, and there are also longer-lived ferocious soul beasts to maintain order in the city... This is how Jade City has been running well.

Huo Yuqing had never seen such a strange market before. She followed Wang Rui through the commercial street, looking left and right, wishing she had eight more eyes.

The snow-white spirit deer lay quietly under the vine roof, with its shed antlers and some auspicious herbs in front of it.

The delicate purple-haired boy was loudly selling bundles of snow-white spider silk. Behind him, a huge spider soul beast was still diligently spinning silk. Several women gathered in front of his stall.

A huge golden turtle was lying quietly on the side, its body full of gold soul coins. A sign next to it read [The gold soul coins enshrined on the golden hawksbill turtle's carapace can bring good luck. Five gold soul coins can be exchanged for one]... It sounds outrageous, but the key point is that there really are people and beasts standing there picking gold coins, which shocked Huo Yuqing.

There were many soul beasts in front of a stall. Huo Yuqing took a closer look and saw a middle-aged woman who was cleaning the carapace of a huge fiery red scorpion. [Cleaning service, starting from five coppers] Huo Yuqing thought about it and felt that this business was probably calculated based on body size. After all, there was a very huge rhino standing quietly on the side.

Behind the middle-aged woman was a thick pink python, which was coiled up and dozing, with bundles of bright pink snake skins and price tags on its body.

"How do they collect money? Soul beasts don't seem to have pockets." Huo Yuqing asked curiously. After all, the number of gold soul coins on some price tags started from several thousand.

"Most of the soul beasts that can come here to set up stalls have their own storage soul guides." Wang Rui said, "Look at the tail of that big snake."
