What is it like to be a saint?

Chapter 582 Ecology (2)

Xu Ji restrained his mana, and his eye sockets gradually returned to normal.

All the visions seen by the eyes also began to disappear.

The ghost tree is still the ghost tree, standing in the canyon.

The turquoise canopy stands gracefully.

The countless leaves are smooth and lustrous, and it looks like a tree occupied by a giant snake from a distance.

Only Xu Ji knows the truth about this ghost tree.

It's very abnormal.

Especially where it appears is Blue Star!

Picking up the phone, Xu Ji looked again at the information that Gui Ling had sent.

I re-watched the pictures one by one, and re-watched the videos one by one carefully.

Especially those photos and videos taken by the Siamese back then.

The corpse of a ghost like a giant snake was paralyzed in the canyon.

Slowly, a little 'rot'.

Become hyphae, become spores, become mushroom clusters.

One after another, Xu Ji watched repeatedly, reviewing those videos carefully.

Combine it with what you saw just now with the 'Dharma Eye'.

Xu Ji's expression gradually became serious.

Especially when he saw a news report archive that seemed to be a place, Xu Ji zoomed in on the once ignored report and read it word for word.

After thinking for a while, Xu Ji turned to look at the staff beside him, and asked, "Excuse me, is there anyone who understands Khmer?"

When he saw this report, it was translated.

But it also comes with the original newspaper!
And the Khmer script, in Xu Ji's eyes, is almost like a heavenly script.

Those symbols, like tadpoles, are completely incomprehensible!

Beside him, the young employee acting as a tour guide immediately raised his hand: "Mr. Xu, I understand! I understand!"

In order to express his professionalism, he also specially emphasized: "My university is a Khmer language major in the Department of International Foreign Languages!"

"After work, I also studied a master's degree in hair language and Khmer culture at the Imperial College of Foreign Languages!"

Xu Ji blinked, then laughed, and handed him the mobile phone: "Then trouble you, help me to read this Khmer news report...and then explain..."

When the other party took the phone, his complexion became rosy, he seemed very excited, and even his hands seemed to tremble a little because of excitement.

Xu Ji didn't quite understand why?
The other party first took a deep breath, and then carefully looked at the news pictures on the phone.

After a while, he said: "This report is about a strange custom that appeared among the people in the Triangle River Valley in 2002 AD..."

"Many people choose to take their coffins and corpses to a place called 'Holy Snake Valley' for cremation after their parents or relatives die!"

"The local people believe that by doing this, the souls of relatives can ascend to the Western Paradise and become Buddhas!"

"Because there are so many people who believe, more and more people are going to the Holy Snake Valley to cremate their relatives!"

"There are even local warlords who control the Snake Valley and charge people who go to cremate their relatives!"

Xu Ji frowned gradually as he listened.

Gui Ling translated the text, which is a very short and general description.

There is no 'Holy Snake Valley', and no 'local legend', just that there is a new strange custom in the Triangular Valley area, and many people choose to take the remains of their loved ones to a canyon for cremation.

But what is the reason behind it?There is no mention of any cultural background.

That is to say, the Public Security Bureau has great powers, and retrieved this old news with the keyword "Triangle Valley" from a large number of documents through big data.

Then in the manual review process, it may be because the reviewers do not understand Khmer, so they simply summarized it using machine translation.

Xu Ji also missed this information.

Until now, after seeing the 'Naga Ghost Tree' with his own eyes, he found that something was wrong. He looked through the files again and found this old news that was easily overlooked, but it was actually likely to hide key information.

Because, not long after this old news.

The mushrooms and hyphae in the canyon below my body slowly disappeared.

According to the photos of the Siamese, in 2004, a Siam Airlines plane flew over the canyon and discovered the 'Naga Ghost Tree'.

At that time, it had grown to at least six meters high!

And the canopy is huge!

So much so that the pilot in the sky found out that something happened in his backyard at a glance.

Ghost tree!

This kind of regional disaster appeared in the Triangle Valley area.

From then on, the number of ghosts in this area began to increase sharply.

Whether it is Siam, Khmer, Cochin, or Bagan, the number of ghost attacks reported every year is soaring!

The Siam Air Force once planned to organize a bombing to destroy the ghost tree.

But in the end nothing happened.

The reasons include the fear of intensifying regional territorial disputes and leading to wars, and some are due to the interference of foreign forces.

Intelligence shows that some extraterritorial powers have clearly expressed to Siam their decision not to support bombing.

The Siamese Air Force was even warned: Do not do things that may intensify the situation in the region!

Otherwise, we will cut off military aid!
Sanctions are even considered!

Later, both the Siamese, the Khmers, and the Bagan people began to oppose the bombing of the 'Naga Ghost Tree'.

In Gui Ling's information, an explanation is given.

The efficacy of the spiritual and divine herbs associated with demons and ghosts has gradually been discovered by people.

The ghost economy is rising!

The price of a C-grade spirit grass on the black market quickly rose to [-] dollars!
Now, it has climbed to more than [-] knives!
The spirit grass associated with the top S-level ghosts may even exceed [-] million knives!
However, for a small country like Khmer, the combined annual GDP is less than 500 billion.

This is the sum of all the wealth created by the hard work of more than 600 million Khmer people day and night.

And a spirit grass can be sold for at least [-] knives.

The most expensive one is more than [-] million knives!
In the face of such great interests, Xu Ji could also know what would happen.

In the vast third world countries, countless people are struggling below the poverty line.

Hunger, bacteria, viruses, ghosts and wars continue to take their lives.

In a precarious situation, human life is very cheap!
In the Central Plains of the old society, there were frequent dramas of pawning wives and selling their sons, and selling their bodies to bury their fathers?

In the Khmer Kingdom, the per capita annual income is less than 2000 knives and the monthly income is less than 150 knives.

Fifty thousand dollars is an astronomical sum!
and so……

For the sake of money, it is logical to give up some people's lives.

And this kind of thing, as long as it starts, it can't be stopped!

Just like resource countries, if they sell oil and minerals, they can live well.

Why bother to work hard to do industry and industry?

Very hard work!

Anyone who has worked in a factory will know that—even workers in so-called high-tech automated factories will tell their children: If you don’t study hard, you will be like me in the future!

Xu Ji has a deep understanding of this.

When he was a child, he was often beaten by his parents like this.

Thoughts turned in my mind.

Xu Ji had already made a decision, and he asked, "Can you lower the height?"
