I think it's reasonable

The third elder felt a little strange when he looked at the high-spirited Bai Nian.

Zhao Longhai didn't seem to be so public before...

He was a little unsure and decided to take another look.

...

"Elder?" 'Female Strawberry' looked in disbelief, as did the 'plastic bag' beside her.

Didn't you say go out and report it? How can I report myself to an elder?

Wait, no, he should have been an elder long ago!

The eyes of the two gradually warmed up.

They already knew that Bai Nian was the boss before, but they didn't expect that the boss would be so big!

It’s not just their eyes that are intense, there is another person in the workshop who is even more intense!

"Elder! Elder!"

Monk Mingyu took three steps and made two steps, rushed in front of Bai Nian, clasped his hands together, bowed and bowed, and said: "The benefactor turned out to be an elder of Tiangong Jiliu, it's really great...The benefactor, what the little monk said just now I would like to ask the donor to think carefully about it. These workshops cannot continue to operate..."

Before Bai Nian could speak, the other two workers were stunned.

The third elder even frowned: "Closing the workshop? What do you mean, monk?"

"Are you...?" Monk Mingyu didn't know the third elder, but the other two workers did.

They hurriedly said: "Third Elder, please ignore this guy, this monk is stupid!"

They all repeated Monk Mingyu's outrageous remarks, some of which Bai Nian had never heard before.

According to Monk Mingyu's thinking, he believes that these workshops of Tiangong Jiliu are mainly used to build war institutions. War institutions are first put into the battlefield to create boundless slaughter and slaughter an unknown number of creatures before they are 'retired' and turned into civilian use. .

These killings can obviously be avoided. Monk Mingyu believes that as long as all workshops are shut down and no longer manufacture and provide machine soldiers, many killings can be reduced.

Years of war between the two domains resulted in countless deaths and injuries. In the Central God Domain, parents lost their children, wives lost their husbands, and children lost their fathers... and these losses could have been stopped!

He once complained to the Shenchao government, but he was arrested and locked up for a period of time. After he came out, he became more firm in his thoughts, and also believed that the Shenchao government was not enough to plan, so he planned to do it himself, starting from small things, and less Tighten a few screws, save one is one...

If you can convince Tiangong Machinery to shut down all workshops, that would be a great merit!

The more the third elder listened, the darker his face became.

"Monk, who are you?"

"Little monk, an ascetic monk in the Western Buddha Region."

Bai Nian was taken aback, what region is this guy talking about? Isn't it the Demon Realm over there?

"Sure enough... get lost, get out of here, old man!" The third elder had a bad look on his face.

"I don't!" Monk Mingyu was full of stubbornness, sitting on the ground and chanting: "If you don't agree, I won't get up!"

As he spoke, he closed his eyes and began to chant Buddhist scriptures.

"You!" The third elder stared: "What the hell do you really think I dare not touch you?!"

He rolled up his sleeves, with silver light flowing on his skin, as if he was going to blow this guy out with his hands.

Sitting on the assembly line, Bai Nian raised his hand and said, "Hey, third child, let me talk to this guy."

"Huh?" The third elder snorted coldly, and said, "What's there to say to this kind of fool, the bald donkey in the Western Demon Region has a sick mind!"

Even though he said that, the silver light flowing on his skin quietly dissipated, obviously he also wanted to hear what Bai Nian would say.

Bai Nian sat on the assembly line, propped himself up with his hands, and asked, "Monk, do you think closing down the factory is a good thing?"

"Is not it?"

"That's definitely not the case." Bai Nian said: "Listen to me to smooth it out for you... You came up from the bottom of this workshop, right?"

"Yes."

"what have you found?"

Monk Mingyu said: "Tiangong Jiliu uses mechanical techniques to hypnotize workers and squeeze labor!"

"Is that level of hypnosis harmful to ordinary people?"

"harmless."

"Then it's over?"

"But the things they make will eventually be sent to the battlefield, causing slaughter, and adding karma to them for nothing!"

"Then if they don't work, who will pay them? You will?"

Monk Mingyu stiffened his neck: "Can't you live without money?"

Bai Nian was taken aback.

The two ordinary workers immediately scolded: "How can you live without money! I ask you how to live without money! You don't need money for food? You don't need money for clothes? You don't need money for children to go to school? You don't need money for old people to see a doctor?"

Monk Mingyu shrank his neck: "But this is not the only way to make money!"

Bai Nian waved his hand and said, "Third brother, I haven't been back for a long time. How big is our Tiangong Jiliu workshop?"

The third elder said: "I have set up a total of 29 workshops in various places, with a total of more than 80,000 workers."

Bai Nian was a little surprised, such a large scale?

He looked at Monk Mingyu: "There are so many people, if my Tiangong Jiliu really closes the workshop as you said, then at least more than 80,000 people will lose their jobs and sources of income. These people, their families what to do?"

"Can't you do other things to make money?"

"What industry can accommodate so many people at once?"

Monk Mingyu hesitated: "...Then it's not good to commit crimes..."

[Get source point +1 (negative)]

"Who told you that we committed crimes?"

"Organ fighters are extremely powerful, and if they are thrown into the battlefield, they will inevitably..."

Bai Nian didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted with a wave: "Have you ever seen a monster? The monster race is thick and powerful. If ordinary people don't have the support of the organization's soldiers, how can they fight against the monster?"

"This... can't I not fight?"

"Yes, of course." Bai Nian nodded with a smile: "The old man can write a letter to the God Emperor on your behalf, admonishing a truce and letting the soldiers go back to the fields."

"Really! Elder is so kind!" Monk Mingyu became excited.

"Then what happens after that?" Bai Nian asked again: "I won't fight anymore, and all the soldiers will disarm and return to the field. If the monsters from the Northern Territory attack again, who will stop it? You?"

"This... If the God Dynasty can stop the war, the demon kingdom in the Northern Territory will not be aggressive. When will the injustice be repaid..."

"How do you know what the demon country thinks? Can you guarantee that after our truce, the demon country will really stop fighting?"

"Young monk...you can't." Monk Mingyu said: "But you can enter the demon country, and find a way to persuade the demon clan to give up their hatred!"

"any solution?"

Monk Mingyu faltered.

Bai Nian snapped his fingers and said, "I sent the workshops to shut down, more than 80,000 people have no source of income, can't afford to eat, wear clothes, and treat illnesses... First, some will starve to death, and then some will freeze to death in winter." , the people were not content with the hardships of life, and rose up to rebel, but they didn't know how many people would die.

Monk, do you think this workshop should be closed?

Stop throwing out the war machines, the soldiers of the God Dynasty lost to the monsters on the battlefield, and suffered heavy casualties, causing more families to lose their pillars... Monk, do you think the war machines should be cast?

You think that you can save people with a few fewer screws, but the fact is that the mechanism soldiers made of these parts are unstable in structure, damaged and scrapped during the battle, and lost their weapons halfway through the fight, causing the monsters to gain the upper hand... You said you were saving people? You are killing people, monk!

If every machine part you handle will cause a machine soldier to be scrapped, each machine soldier will count as one person for you to control.

Do the math yourself, how many people have you indirectly killed since you came here? "

"me……"

Monk Mingyu was speechless: "My Buddha is merciful...but this little monk is clearly doing good deeds..."

[Get source point +1 (negative)]

"Your Buddha is merciful? Who can your Buddha feed? Who can your Buddha have a house to live in?"

"This this……"

[Get source point +1 (negative)]

"Tell me, why did you come to Central God Realm to do this?"

"The young monk... I read in the book that the northern region of the Central Region has been fighting for many years, resulting in countless casualties and thousands of people trapped in fire and water..."

"So you came here without knowing anything? Tsk, you can even say something like 'you can live without money'... Yes, you can live without money, eat tree bark and grass roots, and live if you want Isn’t it easy? But then, what’s the difference between us humans and beasts?”

Monk Mingyu's heart was shaken.

He really doesn't understand these things.

After studying Buddhism for twenty years and reading some books, I became an ascetic...

He thought he was doing good deeds, but...

"Little monk...wrong?"

"Well, you're wrong." Bai Nian nodded: "You're right in your cultivation, and you're right in doing good deeds. What's wrong is your method. You shouldn't just come out without knowing anything... Don't be fooled by others... Advise others to be kind.

You are committing a crime, Monk. "

Monk Mingyu recalled his experience along the way, and followed Bai Nian's thinking. After a while, he lowered his bald head and said in shame: "The benefactor is right, little monk, guilty..."

"Okay, just plead guilty."

Bai Nian clapped his hands, came down from the assembly line, and said, "Third brother, please report to the official."

"Huh?" Everyone was dumbfounded.

Report to the official?

"What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Bai Nian asked suspiciously: "This guy has been working on the assembly line for a month. He didn't tighten a screw, and he was paid for nothing. I don't need to say how much damage he caused? Why don't you report to the officer and arrest him?" ?”

"Oh." The third elder quickly took out his psychic phone and contacted the government.

Monk Mingyu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything. He chanted 'Amitabha Buddha', and then sat down and recited Buddhist scriptures in a low voice, waiting for the official to come.

...

A moment later, in a certain workroom, the third elder and Bai Nian were sitting opposite each other, while Mu Ning was lying straight on the ground beside him, not yet awake.

The third elder sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that our sect would be doing such a great thing..."

[Get source point +1 (positive)]

"ah?"

The third elder said: "I thought we set up these workshops to select disciples. When you were not around, the second and the seventh thought that this method was too expensive and planned to close it... But now, I feel that the What you said makes sense, the workshop cannot be closed!

Not only cannot it be shut down, but it will also be publicized like this in the future! Hahahaha, what a shame to say it! "

[Get source point +1 (positive)]

Bai Nian: "..."

"I didn't expect, old six, that you can say such a thing, even the little devil in the Western Demon Region can't speak against you, haha... Come back with me, if those guys know that you are still alive and successful Yes, I must be very happy."

"Little devil?" Bai Nian asked curiously: "The Western Demon Territory has two names?"

"Why do you ask this?" The third elder was very puzzled: "We went to the Western Demon Territory together back then, and you said that it deserves the name of the Demon Territory there, have you forgotten?"

"Forgot." Bai Nian said honestly.

He has no memory of Zhao Longhai and doesn't know how Zhao Longhai got along with the people in the sect before. Instead of slowly being exposed later, it would be better to admit it openly.

Anyway, he had already thought of an excuse.

'Qingbai Figure·Zhao Longhai' thought that Bai Nian borrowed the Elder's Token to join the Heavenly Craftsmanship through his relationship, but he didn't expect Bai Nian to borrow his identity directly...

"Speaking of which, I thought it was weird before." The third elder took out three mechanism flying balls, and said: "With your level, the traces of transforming such a small mechanism should not be so obvious, let alone me, the inside of the door Just find any disciple, and you can see that something is wrong... Are you really the sixth child?"

"I've shown you the evidence." Bai Nian said, "Aside from me, who else in this world can achieve 'mechanism ascension'?"

"That's true...but why?"

"Something went wrong... My ascension is not perfect."

"Imperfect? ​​How to say?"

Bai Nian said: "My ascension was actually an accident, I still haven't figured out how I ascended...

At that time, I was almost exhausted and unable to return to heaven. In order not to be trapped in the underground palace like this, at the last moment of my life, I optimized the puppet mechanism again, and completely replaced the original flesh and blood body with mechanisms. At that time, I seemed to be dead.

I don't know how long it took, and when I woke up again, I had already turned into this appearance. I was completely turned into a puppet, retaining emotions and memories, but they were all missing.

My mechanism skills also plummeted because of this... Later, I thought about it carefully, and guessed that this might be the situation that must be experienced by 'ascension'. "

"Must go through?" The third elder was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Bai Nian said seriously: "Don't talk about our organ skills, there are also other ways of 'ascending', such as cultivators, ascetics... These systems reach the sky and enlighten the Tao, and the emotions are getting weaker and weaker. , only in exchange for the power of the free world... The ascension of our organs may be the same.

Where there is gain, there is bound to be loss! "

"That... makes sense." The third elder rubbed his chin: "So, you didn't go back to the door directly, and didn't contact us, but came to this small workshop?"

Bai Nian nodded: "You are right."

"I understand..." The third elder frowned tightly: "Put it to death and then live again... This is reasonable, your current situation is really not suitable for returning to the door, you took people to the South Profound Realm earlier, originally It was to dig Yunliujin. Later, I don’t know who passed it on, saying that you have been researching the method of organ ascension, trying to break away from the control of the gods... The punishment of the god emperor is very serious, and life in our sect is not so easy now ah……"

"How serious is it?"

The third elder sighed and said: "Shenchao has not arranged blind dates for us these few years, and many disciples in the sect couldn't find a wife and clamored to quit.

The guy in my family didn't understand anything, he thought that the God Emperor was going to destroy the door, and he kept letting me run away, it almost annoyed me to death, I finally found an excuse to come out from the door...

I also wanted to say that since you have succeeded and come back, the problems in the sect can be solved... As long as the disciples are all ascended, there will be no such worldly desires.

But now it seems that your situation is too accidental and not reproducible, so you can't go back, otherwise... the disciples in the sect now have a big opinion on you, the sixth elder..."

[Get source point +1 (negative)]

Bai Nian: "...?"

What kind of bullshit punishment is this!

Are you unable to find someone by yourself?

...
