Chapter 207 The Style Outside the Customs, Taixu Chatting
The golden palms in the sky are exposed to frost, and the clouds grow with the geese.
Before I knew it, two months had passed.
The reeds are green, the white dew is frost, and the weather is getting cooler.
In Qingqiu, Mo Qingqiu also came back. She lived a very chic and carefree life outside, but when she returned home, her mother chased her around the yard with a broom. She was extremely embarrassed, but she still couldn't escape. Open that fat beating.
Who made her come back so late?
At this time of year, Taixu Mountain was not yet heated. In the courtyard, Wutong and others sat around a stove, roasting food, nibbling melon seeds, sipping sweet wine and drinks, and listening to Mo Qingqiu's story about her experiences during this time.
Yaeying and Cheng Lingshuang, the two little guys, like to listen to her talking about the mountains very much, and she is also good at talking, which always makes Xiaoba look yearning for listening.
Mo Qingqiu went out this time to go outside the customs, that is, Nagada in the northeast, and the furthest went to the "Black Water", which is the HLJ River Basin.
HLJ, also known as "Weak Water" and "Wan Shui", was called "Wangjian River" in the Tang Dynasty. The name "HLJ" was first seen in "Liao History", and there are local records: "HLJ water is black, winding like a dragon, Hence the name HLJ".
According to what Mo Qingqiu said, that place was extremely cold, and it even snowed a few days ago.
However, the houses there are very warm, and the locals use fire kangs, fire walls, stoves, braziers and other facilities to keep warm.
Mo Qingqiu likes that way of heating very much. She often throws a few sweet potatoes and potatoes into the brazier to eat while heating.
The thermal insulation of the heated kang is very good, and people sit or sleep on it, which is very comfortable, and the heated kang seems to have magic, and they don't want to get off after sitting on the hot kang.
But there is also a disadvantage, that is, it is very troublesome to light the stove and dig out the ash. Every year, it is necessary to remove the fire wall to clean the ash inside, so as to ensure the heating in winter.
Also, after a night, it was actually very cold when I woke up in the morning, and the room was only about ten degrees Celsius. People were reluctant to leave the bed, and climbing out of the bed every morning required great perseverance.
And if too much firewood is added the night before, it may cause the house to overheat, and it will be too hot to sleep on the kang.
The Northeast is now sparsely populated, and almost every household has a yard. They will pile some dry firewood for the winter in the yard, and raise a few dogs or other livestock.
Many families have small vegetable gardens in their courtyards. In winter, when the vegetable gardens are idle, some adults will pour some water on the vegetable gardens to make small "skating rinks" for children to play on.
Most of the people there use "sleds" when traveling, also called "sledges" and "ice beds"... The livestock that pull the sledges can be pulled by horses, cows, deer or even dogs.
The sledge slides very smoothly on the snow, not as bumpy as a carriage at all.
Mo Qingqiu didn't find any traces of the Houkai Beast outside the pass. It may be because the civilization there is relatively backward and the economy is less developed than inside the pass.
However, the wild animals there are very cute. Sables, Siberian tigers, owls, black bears, sika deer, etc. are all very cute, especially an animal called roe deer, which is so funny and silly.
It looks like Mo Qingqiu.
After the silly roe deer is frightened, the white hair on the tail will explode and turn into a white butt. Moreover, a large part of the roe deer will not run away immediately. don't run away.
If you chase a roe deer for a long time, after running tired, it will bury its head in the snow, thinking that it will not be found by people.
Mo Qingqiu wanted to bring back a silly roe deer to raise and play with, and she did. She bought a domesticated roe deer from the General's Mansion guarding there. The domesticated roe deer is more obedient and not so scary, but On the way back, she was hungry...
Speaking of this, Mo Qingqiu felt a little sad, maybe it was aftertaste, and he will bring it back when he goes there next time.
During the period of traveling, Mo Qingqiu stayed at the General Military Mansion at the border. According to her, the General Soldier looked nice and warm to her, but the General Soldier was actually very greedy. He wanted to annex The land and the wide deployment of military fields have caused many people to suffer losses.
So, when Mo Qingqiu passed by Shendu on his way back, he reported it to him by the way, and it is estimated that he will be dealt with by the end of the year.
"Your Majesty, are human beings really 'worms' on this planet?" Mo Qingqiu asked with a sigh.
"No." Indus replied decisively.
"But..." Mo Qingqiu hesitated for a moment, and said, "For so many years, I have traveled all over the world and all over China, but I found that places with many people often have dirtier environments.
"Due to governance reasons, Shenzhou is better, but places like Europe have a lot of people and civilization is not backward, but the environment there has become very bad due to human activities, and the air is filled with a rancid smell. .
"As for the place I went to this time, there are few people, but the natural scenery is very beautiful. The Houkai beast is rare, and the environment is very clean, and the air is very fresh. Doesn't this...doesn't mean that human beings are actually the dirtiest creatures ?"
Following Mo Qingqiu's words, Lin Zhaoyu and the little fellows also looked at Wutong, as if they also wanted to hear his opinion.
"Do you think the desert is better, or the rich black land?" Wutong asked casually.
He took out a roasted sweet potato from the stove, and it was not too hot to touch. The sweet potato was roasted just right, and the black skin on the outside could be peeled off easily, revealing a yellow, fragrant and ripe sweet potato. Finally, he took out a small piece, blew it, and fed it to him. Sitting next to him, he looked obedient.
The cute little Hachi.
Sakura closed her mouth and gave him a kick in dissatisfaction. She thought her husband wanted to feed her!
"Of course the black land is better." Mo Qingqiu replied.
"You're right, but that's just a human opinion." Indus smiled, "For our planet, deserts, volcanoes, oceans, black land, etc., make no difference, they are all on this planet. Part."
"what do you mean……?"
"Human pollution of the environment is irrelevant to our planet, because the human race is irrelevant to the planet."
Wutong picked up a skewer of barbecued meat, took a sip, and continued: "The resources obtained by ordinary people all come from our planet, and the pollution created will naturally return to our planet. However, please pay attention to one thing. The pollution caused by human beings is not borne by the planet, but by human beings themselves.
"No matter what kind of pollution, even if the air becomes corrosive, and all the water sources are not clean, it is harmless to our planet, but it is a disaster to human beings.
"So, the pollution and destruction caused by human beings will only destroy human beings, because human beings have no ability to destroy the planet. The so-called protection of the environment is actually protecting human beings themselves.
"Even if a nuclear bomb is used to blow up the surface of the planet, so what? Our planet cannot die, but human beings will definitely die. Do you know how many nuclear bombs are needed to blow up a planet? How many are not enough, because this There are not so many raw materials for making nuclear weapons on this planet.
"In other words, wanting to use the resources of the planet itself to destroy a planet is wishful thinking."
"Then... what's going on with Honkai?" Mo Qingqiu scratched his head, wondering, "Since human beings can't destroy the world, why does Honkai appear?"
"Honkai is not a product of the planet's will, let alone the world's will. It is a foreign thing."
Wutong threw the bamboo sticks into the stove, watched the bamboo sticks quietly burning in the flames, and said lightly: "Foreign things are the enemies of the native land. Honkai is the enemy of civilization, human beings, and creatures. Even the enemy of our planet, but it is not the enemy of the world, because it does not deserve to be the enemy of the world.
"The essence of Honkai is just a kind of energy, which will be used by human beings sooner or later. What human beings need to overcome is not just Honkai.
"Believe me, Honkai cannot destroy all human beings. The real enemy of human beings is human beings themselves."
