Chapter 208 Spreading the Faith
When people vented their anger, the food of the big families was also found one by one, and the bags of grain made almost everyone red. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
During the war years, it was always the lowest class of people who suffered, they had no power or power, and they could only survive in the face of war.
The poor will get poorer and poorer, and eventually become refugees in the war, while some rich families will become richer and richer, and take advantage of this to strengthen their power, and these rich people will not worry about eating and drinking compared to the poor, and will even take advantage of this to hoard food, resell it at a high price, and make a lot of war money.
As a result, some people are getting richer, while others are getting poorer.
The big family in front of him is a prime example, the people in the surrounding villages are starving to death, but his family has mountains of grain.
At this moment, all of them are cheaper than Queen Li.
Looking at the stacks of grain piled up in front of him, Empress Li didn't move from beginning to end, and sat back and enjoyed the success.
He didn't need to exert any effort, and the people had already blamed him for all the credit, and they were all grateful.
The food was clearly in front of him, but no one dared to move, obviously, this was waiting for the god Li Hou to give instructions.
"This grain is yours, take it and eat it!" Empress Li said lightly, and was immediately worshiped by the people again.
The invisible power of faith gathered one after another, and although Empress Li couldn't see it with the naked eye, he could clearly feel it in his body.
The power of that vigorous growth is intoxicating.
Empress Li couldn't help but be fascinated by comfort, intoxicated by the growth of power, although this power is very illusory, and it will not be brought back to reality with him in the future, but at this moment, who can refuse the pleasure of soaring power?
There are gods and goddesses in this world, who claim to be eight million, and don't they also chase around faith all day long?
In essence, Empress Li is the same as them.
Although this force will not return to reality with Empress Li, in the process of growth, he can also get tangible benefits.
At this moment, the spiritual realm that had been stuck at the limit of opening the light, and the half-step condensation of qi finally entered the condensation period with a bang.
In the sea of knowledge, it was still pitch black, and the blue cocoon that Empress Li was incomparably familiar with appeared again in the darkness, hanging in the center.
Empress Li was very aware of this process, and when the blue cocoon disappeared again, he was also in the condensation period.
However, the cycle of blue cocoon cultivation is very long, and judging from the current progress alone, it is really far from enough, and Empress Li still needs more faith.
…… And the soul!
The unique power of this world, coupled with the absorption of the soul itself, is a two-pronged approach, and Empress Li's spiritual sense can go further.
For now, this is just the first step!
Now that he has his first followers, the next step is to spread the faith.
Empress Li did not start immediately, but gave these believers some time, they needed to eat well, sleep well, and then spread their faith in a new way.
Three days later.
What was originally a group of villagers who were about to starve to death completely changed their appearance.
The ragged clothes have become the linen clothes worn by normal people, and even more have changed into powerful samurai uniforms and gorgeous kimonos, which are clean and tidy, although the face is still a little vegetable, but the eyes are full of brilliance, and the mental outlook has completely changed.
Even the people of peacetime are no more than that.
Some of them stayed behind and began to resume normal farming based on the land of large households, while others were sent out by Empress Li to spread the feat of Empress Li looting large households and distributing grain, constantly adding mythology to Empress Li.
Gradually, a benevolent savior was born.
And the story of this god is spreading around at a frantic rate, and there is no more shocking topic than the god.
Whether it's gossip or disdain, even if it's just a casual conversation by people, in short, Empress Li's name has completely started in this area.
Among them, there is an endless stream of admirers.
Almost all of these people were refugees, starving people, and some wandering samurai.
These people, all of whom are unable to live and have reached the end of their rope, came here with the mentality of giving it a try after hearing the legend of the gods.
For the arrival of these people, Empress Li once again took on the posture of a savior, and constantly distributed food to help these people.
And while these people were grateful to Empress Li, they naturally stayed and joined Empress Li's followers.
In almost ten days, the number of followers of Empress Li had skyrocketed to four hundred.
Only 400 people?
Don't underestimate these 400 people, think about what era this is? The era of war was the most chaotic and war--Warring States.
Think about how many people are in Japan?
During the Warring States period, the total population of Japan was only 7 million, including the elderly, children, and the sick and disabled...... And so on, the armies of their respective forces are all combined, and they are only two or three hundred thousand.
This is also why people in later generations always joked that the ancient war in Japan was a fight between village chiefs!
Despite the nickname, Japan's population is pitifully small.
And this area is remote, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a wilderness, and those forces that are fighting everywhere have no interest in taking care of it at all.
You can see the desolation here.
Even Empress Li was wondering where so many people came from!
And among these, not all of them are loyal to Li Hou, at least one-third of the people, Li Hou does not feel the slightest power of faith.
In other words, among the four hundred people, almost one-third of them came to eat and drink because of Empress Li's reputation.
And because of a savior's hat, Empress Li naturally couldn't execute these people, and even entertained them, and then sent them away in the name of spreading the faith.
In the end, he ended up with the name of a merciful lord!
The faith of nearly 300 people made Empress Li's spiritual sense completely consolidated in the condensation period, as stable as Mount Tai, but he was naturally still not satisfied.
It's only 300 people, isn't this a joke!
Empress Li's appetite is not enough for three hundred people, but right now, he has encountered another problem.
There is not enough food.
Four hundred people, four hundred mouths, Rao is the hoarded food he found in the big house, and it only lasted for about ten days before it bottomed out.
He needed more food to sustain his faith.
So, Empress Li took advantage of this to start the idea of the surrounding big households again, and within three days, all the big households within a radius of 100 miles were looted by him.
The looted food was reinvested in the relief of the refugees, and in this cycle, the followers of Empress Li began to grow again.
The number of believers skyrocketed, and there were more and more strong men, wandering samurai, etc., and gradually, Empress Li's ambition also swelled.
A small army was organized.
Maybe the army really thinks too highly of Empress Li's followers, but it is still more than enough to deal with some ruffians and hooligans.
Next, it's time to go on a big expansion!
In his room, Empress Li looked at a simple map in front of him, and with a stroke of his pen, he circled a map of the spread of power.
