Chapter 55 Thirty Years in Hexi
(modified)
Following the golden toad's confident speech, the hill-like golden wheel in front of it disappeared instantly and appeared in front of Leon out of thin air.
After receiving the "payment", Leon suddenly let out a scream and covered his ears with pain on his face.
“Zizzizi!!!”
Accompanied by a buzzing that was a hundred times more piercing than any before, a mechanical prompt sounded in Leon's ears.
[Warning, the abnormal object "Golden Toad" is trying to change the system ownership]
[System ownership cannot be transferred and the change operation is rejected]

【……】
"How could..."
Looking at Leon, whose face was full of pain, but not a single wrinkle appeared on his face, and not a hair turned white, the golden toad couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.
This is a total of thirty thousand golden wheels! It's enough to buy a dozen people's lives, but you can't even make him look old? Are the salaries of the Cleanup Bureau so high?
The golden toad, who did not believe in evil, moved back, stretched out his two hands to gather five times as many golden wheels as before, and pushed them towards the man in front of him.
"One hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Zizzizi!"
【warn……】
【……reject】
"Half a million!!"
【warn……】
【……reject】
"A million!!!"
【warn……】
【……reject】
"Ah!!! It hurts!!!"
"This is impossible!!!"
Why can a human being be so valuable? !
Looking at Leon, who kept holding his head and screaming in front of him, but refused to die, the golden toad, who had a huge impact on his world view, couldn't help but grit his teeth, opened his mouth to the maximum, and spit out enough to form a The golden wheel of the river.
"These...add them all!!!"
Like a gambler who lost his eyes, the golden toad, whose meaning of existence was challenged, began to spit out the golden wheel with all his strength, until the golden wheel submerged Leon's chest and spit out into the center of the shopping plaza. A huge mountain of gold rose up, and its golden skin turned faintly pale, and then it took a breather, but...
【warn……】
【……reject】
"ah……"
After more than five minutes of noise bombardment, whether because his ears were completely deafened or because he gradually got used to the stinging pain caused by the noise, Leon not only stopped screaming and stood up straight, but also because he just stood up straight. The vigorous "exercise" brought a healthy blush to his face.
"..."
impossible! I don't believe it! ! It's obviously not supposed to be like this! ! !
Seeing that apart from being a little uncomfortable being squeezed by the golden wheel, Leon looked even better than before. The golden toad only felt his head buzzing, as if someone had hit his head hard on the Tianling Cap, and the whole toad was shaking. He fell down with a thud and couldn't get up for a long time.
"I've told you before, many things cannot be measured with money!"
Seeing that this unbelieving guy finally stopped, no longer fussing, and his ears no longer suffered, Leon couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
After struggling to crawl out of the golden wheel that was flooded to his chest, he thought about how to reply for a long time, climbed up Jinlun Mountain on his hands and knees, looked down at the golden toad with eyes full of resentment, and mustered up the courage to lie half-truths and half-falsehoods. road:
"Although I am just an insignificant ordinary person, I can only struggle for a meager salary every day, selling my life in disguise as you said. But I know very well in my heart that I am not a slave to money! I have never been Live for money! So even if you can control money arbitrarily, you can never buy my life!"
"Nonsense!"
Infuriated by the disdain in the "slave's" eyes, the severely faded golden toad stood up, its huge head arched again, raised higher than the Jinshan Mountain, and then opened its big mouth and aimed at Leon on the Jinshan Mountain, trying to spray again. Bring out more golden wheels and buy this human life.
However, this time, what he sprayed out was no longer a bright golden wheel, but a large number of silver-white coins with carved patterns, covering this bright golden mountain with a pale snow cap.
"Why did you change it to Yinlun? Do you have no money?"
"I have!"
After spitting out a large amount of silver wheel again, but found that it still had no effect on Leon, the silver toad couldn't help but wavered in his eyes, and then quickly raised his head firmly and responded angrily: "I am a scale gold The Holy Spirit of God! My wealth is endless! It’s just that it consumes too much power now. Once I leave here and return..."
"Don't be stupid, no matter how much money you can spit out, the result will be the same!"
Leon, who was once again flooded with silver wheels to his chest, sneered, secretly took out the wine bottle and took a big sip. After relying on the effect of [Wine Country Martyr] to completely suppress the remaining fear in his heart, he raised his head and stared at the faint... The huge copper-colored toad bullied it into not understanding the existence of the system, and continued to "attack" aggressively:
"Open your eyes and take a look. Isn't the relationship between me and money just like the mountain you spit out?"
After reaching out to push aside the heavy silver wheel and struggling out from the "snow top", Leon once again occupied the highest point of the Gold and Silver Mountain, looked down at the faded toad below, and said with disdain:
"Admit it, as long as I can stay awake and not be paralyzed and buried by the magic of money, but strive towards higher and greater goals, no matter how much money I have, it can only stay at my feet!"
"Crack!"
"I don't believe it!"
Accompanied by a clear cracking sound, the toad with a large number of cracks on its body suddenly raised its head, roaring "I don't believe it" while trying to raise its head, trying to return to a higher position than Leon.
However, with the blessing of such a huge mountain of gold and silver, no matter how hard it tried, it could only be one step lower than Lyon, and it could bear the contempt in Lyon's eyes from below.
"This is impossible!!!"
Feeling some great humiliation from the other party's overlooking, the faded toad managed to stand up, jumped up suddenly, tried to climb the gold and silver mountain, and looked down at Lyon again.
However, even a hill made of gold and silver could not support a six-meter-tall behemoth. Half of the gold and silver mountain collapsed in an instant. The toad, which had barely jumped up, could only roll and crawl down again. Breathing hard, Leon looked up at the top of the mountain dizzily.
"Look, even the money at your disposal has begun to abandon you."
"Crack!"
Leon, who finished repairing the knife in time, sat cross-legged on the "Silver Wheel Snow Top" that was more than one meter thick, overlooking the unwilling toad below. He shook his head silently, then grabbed a handful of Silver Wheel and threw it down. , covering the toad’s increasingly cracked skin, he sighed:
"I have been pursuing money all my life, but now I am standing on countless money, while you, who regard yourself as the master of money, can only be buried under money. Don't you think it's ironic if you think about it carefully?"
"Crack!"
No...that's not true! This is not true!
Looking at his almost completely broken body, the Cracked Toad was unable to get up anymore. With his last hope, he raised his head and asked angrily: "It's an abnormality! It's an abnormality, right? You must have one. An extremely high-level abnormality! It’s even powerful enough to resist my abilities!”
"If you think so, then so be it."
After showing off his arms that still had no muscles, Leon shook his head and sneered, and said shamelessly: "You guessed it right, I do have an extremely powerful anomaly that is higher than the true god. But it has no blessing on my body. As a result, I can't even carry an iron box now. I can only use a shopping bag to carry the sheep head to complete the task.
Oh, by the way, you couldn't buy everything from me just now because its status was too high and your ability couldn't take effect... Haha, can this give you some comfort? "
"I...I..."
"Stop me, you're just a poor guy."
After forcibly drawing a conclusion on the life of Cracked Toad, Leon, who was sitting on the Gold and Silver Mountain, suppressed the excitement of the Holy Spirit that was about to die in his heart, and said in a leisurely manner: "I have always felt that a person's influence on this world is Perceptions are actually just a projection of his own values.
When you see someone making a noise, what you see is not actually the noisy person, but your own aversion to the noise;
You see someone working hard, but what you see is not the working person either. It’s about your own appreciation of hard work;
This world is obviously so vivid and beautiful, but not only can you not feel it at all, but you can only see a group of slaves dominated by money..."
When he said this, Leon paused for a moment, looked at the huge toad below that was being shattered inch by inch, and softly said with pity in his eyes:
"Are those people buried under the magic of money those who are working hard to live...or do you think they are like a group of slaves?"
"Crack!"
"Wow!"
