Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 751: The Harvest Festival Sacrifice

Meng Chao was speechless.

He did not want to argue with a girl who was still wet behind the ears.

After thinking for a while, he changed the subject and continued to ask, “But why am I lying here? This should be your home, right? I mean, even if you picked me up, shouldn’t you send me to a hospital or something to focus on treatment and... supervision?”

“I’ve heard of places like hospitals, but there are no hospitals in Peach Blossom Town,” said Gu Ling.

“No hospitals?”

Meng Chao was stunned again.

From the skyline of this town, it should have been one of the larger satellite cities around Dragon City during the Earth era. It must have its own district-level hospitals, and there might even be branches of provincial and city-level hospitals.

After transmigrating, the living environment was harsh. Whether it was treating illnesses or injuries, or exploring the higher peaks of life sciences, hospitals were an indispensable infrastructure for civilization.

How could Peach Blossom Town not have a hospital?

“Then, what should you do if you are usually sick or injured?” Meng Chao asked curiously.

“We rarely get sick.”

Gu Ling proudly said, “The air, water, and food in Peach Blossom Town are a hundred times cleaner than on Earth. In addition, we don’t have any conflicts or troubles. Everyone helps each other and is happy. We are so happy that all the illnesses are naturally eliminated!

“If we are really sick or injured, we are not afraid. The spirit beasts will take us to the jungle to find a lot of exotic flowers and plants. After chewing on them, we will eat them or apply them to our wounds. Most of the diseases will disappear.”

Meng Chao could not believe it.

If traditional herbalism and witchcraft medicine were really that effective, the civilization on Earth would not have needed to develop modern medicine.

“What if it doesn’t get better after eating the herbs?”He asked.

“Then I can only die.” Gu Ling shrugged and said as if it was nothing.

“Die...”

Meng Chao was stunned again.

After transmigrating, the people of Dragon City were known for their “indifference to life and death and their willingness to do so.” In terms of outlook on life and death, they were much more open-minded than the Earth’s era.

However, for a little girl who was just over ten years old to mention death so casually, it made him feel that his worldview had been overturned.

“That’s right. If eating herbs isn’t good, then you can only die!”

Gu Ling spoke in an old-fashioned manner. “The flowers bloom and wither, the leaves flourish and fall, the insects turn into butterflies, and the butterflies decay in the mud. Birth, aging, illness, and death are all natural!

“We humans are also a part of nature. As long as we live happily every day, what is there to be afraid of about death?

“If we die, we will be thrown into the mud in the depths of the jungle, and we will be swallowed by the moss, fungus blankets, lichen, snakes, insects, rats, and ants. It won’t be long before a brand-new life will grow on our corpses. Isn’t that a good thing?

“On the other hand, the people of Earth are living in such a terrible environment, being bullied and oppressed by their own kind, working like cows and horses all day long, living an unbearable life, but they’re extremely afraid of death, the ultimate relief. Isn’t that strange?”

Meng Chao once again controlled the impulse to argue with the little girl.

He took a deep breath, “Alright, it seems that you’re all quite brave and unafraid of death. However, aren’t your family members afraid that I’ll harm you once I wake up? You’ve also said that outsiders aren’t used to the life in Peach Blossom Town. It’s very likely that they’ll make a big fuss, destroy the environment, and even hurt the ordinary townspeople.”

“That’s right, so I can only carry you home. This is the only place where I am not afraid of you making a big fuss!” Gu Ling said.

“Huh?”

Meng Chao was slightly startled.

His pupils suddenly contracted into two needle tips.

There was killing intent. He could feel a strong killing intent coming from all over the room.

Suddenly, along with the killing intent, two thorny vines and three giant pythons whose scales stood up like blades came in through the window.

Heavy panting sounds came from the corridor. A few nether leopards covered in the patterns of venomous snakes were crouching at the door like cannonballs ready to be fired.

Meng Chao, on the other hand, had only activated 10% of his psionic vision ability. He could sense that there were dozens of super beasts lurking on the ceiling and under the floor. Among them, there were some big monsters like the ferocious Hell Beasts.

He had no doubt that as long as he was a little more agitated, these monsters would swarm him and hold him down.

“Brother Meng Chao, will you hurt me?” Gu Ling asked with a smile.

“Of course not.”

Meng Chao seriously said, “I am a person who opposes violence, and I love small animals the most. By the way, are these... spirit beasts your pets?”

“They’re not pets at all. They’re all my friends.”

Gu Ling said, “We Peach Blossom people don’t like to keep pets. All the spirit beasts are our friends.”

“It seems that you’re very good at communicating with these ‘friends,’” Meng Chao said.

“Anyone can communicate with spirit beasts. They’re very kind and friendly, to begin with!”

Gu Ling said, “Even the most extreme and stubborn among the outsiders can learn to communicate well with the spirit beasts after meditating for a few days in the Tree of Wisdom. Don’t just show off your weapons.”

It was the second time that Meng Chao had heard the name “Tree of Wisdom.”

It sounded like it was related to Peach Blossom Town’s core secret.

Of course, regardless of whether or not Peach Blossom Town really existed, every piece of information presented to Meng Chao was a secret that was worth studying carefully.

“I see. It seems that Peach Blossom Town is indeed a very interesting place.”

Meng Chao composed himself and said, “Ms. Gu Ling, can you tell me more about Peach Blossom Town’s history? How did you build and develop after you transmigrated here? As well as your daily life, food, clothing, shelter, transportation, ways to maintain your livelihood, and so on.

“Also, can I see other outsiders? Among the people who floated down Peach Blossom Creek, was there anyone who’s very tall, has a strong aura, and very aggressive? Someone who appeared a little intense...”

“What?” Gu Ling asked.

“Forget it. It’s nothing. I just want to know the situation of all my companions,” said Meng Chao.

“Of course. Even if you didn’t ask, I would gradually tell you. That way, you can better integrate into Peach Blossom Town and live here forever!”

Gu Ling said, “However, today is the Harvest Festival, and everyone has to celebrate and worship. How about this? I’ll take you out to eat something first, and then we’ll participate in the biggest festival in Peach Blossom Town. Let’s eat and watch while we chat, okay?”?

“All outsiders, as long as they get used to the life here, they would at least be less agitated and not cause any damage. They’ll all come to participate in the Harvest Festival. You’ll be able to meet many of your companions soon.”

“If that’s the case, that would be the best. Then I’ll have to trouble you, Ms. Gu Ling.”

Meng Chao decided to stay put and see what the other party was up to.

Gu Ling opened the wardrobe and took out a large wooden box containing Earth t-shirts and jeans.

“Is this the attire for the festival?”

Meng Chao said, “Shall I leave for a while?”

“No.”

Gu Ling covered her mouth and laughed. “These are the sacrifices that will be burned later.”

“Sacrifices?” Meng Chao was completely confused.

“That’s right. Sacrifices. These clothes and pants are all made using very evil methods, especially the dyeing process of these jeans, which uses a large amount of chemical materials that cause very serious pollution. On Earth, wherever large-scale denim garment processing factories are set up, the rivers will be polluted with all kinds of colors. The smell stinks up the sky, so you can only imagine what happens when it enters your stomach upon drinking.”

Gu Ling said in all seriousness, “These Earth industrial products are all symbols of sin. Every year at the Harvest Festival, we collect some of the Earth’s industrial products and burn them. On one hand, it means that we have drawn a line with Earth’s civilization and are determined to develop a new civilization that is more harmonious and natural. On the other, it means that we are offering sacrifices to this paradise, praying that the next year will be a good one and that hunting, as well as gathering, will be a great success.

“I heard that a long time ago, Earth’s industrial products were still relatively easy to find. However, year after year, as winter passed and spring came, more and more of Earth’s industrial products were burned or naturally decayed. It was becoming more and more difficult to find a complete sacrifice!

“I spent a lot of effort to get these few good-looking sacrifices. Of course, I have to carefully keep them and sacrifice them in their entirety. Next year, I might be able to catch the ‘big guy’ in the jungle!”

As she spoke, the little girl picked up the big wooden box that was filled with T-shirts and jeans from Earth.

Meng Chao glanced at the door.

The hell leopards were still crouching there, motionless like cannonballs that were ready to be fired.

Gu Ling whistled.

A few vines that had peeked in from the window intertwined with each other like a flight of stairs that went straight to the ground through the window.

Meng Chao looked at the trembling vines that looked like mimosa. It was as if they were waving at him, and he could not even take a step forward.

Stepping on the vines, he came to the main road outside the house. When he turned back, Meng Chao realized that he had just slept in a three-story building covered with flowers and creepers.

The entire building was covered in a sea of flowers and Green Tides, and its original shape could not be seen.

On the roof of the building, there was a giant toad that was even bigger than the Demonic Halberd Pig. It was giving him a “gurgle, gurgle, gurgle” demonstration.

Gu Ling took out a sun-dried lizard from her pocket and flicked it high up with her finger.

Swoosh!

The giant toad shot out a bolt of lightning from its mouth and swept the dried lizard away before swallowing it. Only then did it grin in satisfaction. It jumped more than a hundred meters in an instant and jumped behind the lush, tall building. It was gone.

It seemed that it was also Gu Ling’s “friend.”

“Let’s go. I’ll take you out to get some food first!” Gu Ling jumped and walked in front.

Meng Chao looked at the buildings that were drowned by the sea of flowers and the Green Tide. There were monsters pulling carts on the streets. There were also Demonic Air Ripping Eyes that fell from the sky from time to time just to put down the passengers in the hanging basket. The colors were too bright... The feeling of absurdity in his heart became heavier and heavier.

The passers-by also cast sidelong glances at him one after another.

Although he was wearing the same animal skin and hemp clothing, Meng Chao’s temperament was out of place in Peach Blossom Town.

Like all the people of Dragon City, he had a sacred sense of mission lingering between his brows and eyes. He was also carved with a bone-deep imprint by the arduous and unrelenting war. Wherever he went, the sound of steel and fire colliding reverberated in his chest. He was always eager to do something, change something, conquer something, and build something.

The residents of Peach Blossom Town, however, had innate calmness and contentment. They were content with whatever happened and left things to fate.
