âOld man, you have to pay me!â Another unfamiliar voice rang out.
The second elder turned pale with fright. Whoâs talking now?
âOld man! Itâs me! The ground youâre stepping on. â The owner of the voice was afraid that the second elder would look around again, so he simply pointed out his identity.
âYou ... You know what Iâm thinking?â The second elder stammered as he spoke. What kind of monsters were there! Just as he was thinking this, he immediately stopped. He didnât dare to continue thinking, in case someone peeked at his thoughts.
âI am the master of this space. Any living creature that stays on my body, no matter what, canât hide their thoughts from me.â Black Earth said with a proud expression.
The second elder wiped the cold sweat from his forehead when he heard the earth Godâs words. He didnât dare to have any thoughts in his heart.
âOld man, pay us the money you owe us first!â The earth God said with a smile.
âI donât have any money on me right now!â The second elderâs face was bitter as he spoke with some difficulty. His money had all been used to buy medicinal pills, and he was in a huge debt.
âIt doesnât matter! You can also write us an IOU!â The earth said disapprovingly. Big rock and the fish didnât doubt its words at all. Obviously, the earth in this space was their boss.
An IOU! Another IOU! This was really infuriating! Why did they all know this move? His hands were a little weak from writing IOUs, and now he had to write IOUs for these elves. Damn it, what was this?
âI donât have a pen and paper!â The second elder said after a long while.
âIt doesnât matter, we have it!â The earth God chuckled. Then, a white light flashed before the second elderâs eyes, and a piece of paper and a pen appeared in front of him.
The second elder wanted to cry but had no tears. He held the pen and paper and did not move.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âStinky old man! What are you thinking?â The fish was getting impatient as it roared.
âI wonder how much I should pay you?â The second elder asked in a low voice. He had no choice but to lower his head! Although he really wanted to write down a number, he was afraid that these guys would not be satisfied. He didnât dare to offend these local tyrants.
âI want a hundred pieces of top-grade crystal stones!â Big rock was the first to speak.
âWhat? I just sat on you and you want to charge a hundred top-grade crystals? Are you trying to Rob me?â The second elder was left speechless. These guys were clearly taking advantage of him? Although he had no choice but to compromise, he was not willing to be a spendthrift.
âIâm not an ordinary big rock, so itâs naturally expensive for you to sit on me. Not only that, if you want to sit on me in the future, youâll have to pay again, and the price will be double. This time, Iâm charging less because you didnât know about it.â Big rock explained. The face on the rock was smiling so widely that it looked like a flower.
âWeâre the same!â The fish agreed.
âMm! Not bad! I wonât ask you for more this time. â The earth God also said.
After hearing their words, the second elder really wanted to hit himself with a piece of tofu. He didnât know what to say now. At most, he wouldnât sit or look at that stone and fish, but if this land just stood there and asked him for money, he would probably have to bear a huge debt before he could even get out. Moreover, he didnât know when he would be able to get out. These guys were really hateful.
After hearing the second elderâs thoughts, the black soil man was in a good mood and laughed,ââOld man! Donât be afraid! My charges are very fair, there are three types of monthly, yearly, or daily payments. Yearly or monthly payments are much cheaper than daily payments, which one do you choose?â
I donât want to choose any of them! The second elder wailed miserably. This was the first time he had heard of the so-called âyear and month contractsâ, and this kind of idea actually came from a piece of land.
âOld man! You canât not choose any of them!â Black soil land said with a smile.
The second elder was shocked. He had forgotten that this piece of land would know what he was thinking. This was a big embarrassment!
âThat ... I want to know how to do a monthly and a Nian contract?â The second elder asked carefully.
âItâs a yearâs holiday! Itâll cost you ten thousand top-grade crystals a year. At that time, you can sit on any of the stones I have on me. They wonât charge you extra. Also, you can also enjoy the fish in this River as you wish, itâs all free. â
âIâll charge you three thousand top-quality crystals a month. If you want to rest on the rock or relax by watching the fish here, youâll have to pay extra. To put it bluntly, except for you who can stand on my body, youâll have to pay for everything else,â
âAs for booking the day! It was 200 top-grade crystals a day! Old man, this is much more expensive than a month or a year. I believe you will know how to make the best choice!â After black soil land explained, he gave the second elder another round of high praise!
âWhat if I leave this place in less than a year? Can I return the money?â The second elder thought for a moment and asked.
âOf course not! We donât give refunds!â Black soil land said with certainty.
âIf youâre afraid of wasting money, you can pay me monthly!â Black soil land suggested.
âIâll book the whole year!â The second elder sighed and said helplessly. He didnât know how long it would take for him to get out of here, but it was obviously more worthwhile to do it for a year than a month.
âHehe! Old man, I told you that youâre a smart man and know whatâs the best choice!â The black soil ground said happily. It didnât expect its first business to be a great success, it was really happy!
Then, the pen and paper floated in front of the second elder. The second elder smiled bitterly and obediently wrote down another IOU.
âOld man! Do as you wish! You can go anywhere you want here, donât worry! No one will collect money from you anymore!â The black soil ground promised in a friendly manner.
âEn!â The second elder nodded. He had already signed an IOU. If he still couldnât go anywhere, wouldnât he be depressed to death?
However, he didnât dare to sit on the talking stone anymore. He looked around and then sat down on a relatively wide piece of land.
âArgh! How dare you! He actually sat on our bossâs body!â Seeing the second elder sit down, the big rock said with a surprised look.
âIâve already paid!â The second elder gritted his teeth. Did they think he wanted to sit here? It was all because he didnât want to sit on the face of that stone. Otherwise, he would feel weird!
âSo what if I paid? Get up quickly and donât sit on my boss! Otherwise, I wonât let you off!â The big rock said angrily. This made it even angrier than the old man sitting on its body.
âThen where should I sit?â The second elder asked dumbly. This annoying stone really liked to meddle in other peopleâs business! The black soil under his feet didnât even have any objections, but he was the first to object.
