Chapter 143: Hit the road to the national capital
In the world of cultivating immortals, cultivating immortals is the largest, and the people of all countries regard cultivating immortals as the most glorious thing.
If you want to be an immortal, there are many ways, as the saying goes, there are three thousand avenues, all of which are ways to cultivate immortals and ascend to the sky. The establishment of many countries in the world of cultivating immortals is also based on cultivating immortals.
For example, in the Great Xia Kingdom, his founding was fundamentally a sect system.
The people of the Great Xia Kingdom cultivated the sect and ascended to immortality through the sect. The so-called sect path means that every sect master who has established a sect is a big man who has obtained the method of ascending to the sky and becoming an immortal. It is rumored that all the sect masters who founded the mountain and established the sect were all immortals.
Of course, legends are legends, and maybe that's not the case.
As for how many sects there are in the Great Xia Kingdom, there are statistics in this sect committee. There are almost 2,000 sects in the entire Great Xia Kingdom, and there are many large and small sects, all of which are proud to participate in the National Sect Conference.
Finally, three sects were selected to participate in the sect conference, and then there were about 100 sects across the country to participate in the final national sect conference.
The National Sect Conference was about to start, and then Sang Zhiheng led his disciples on the road.
Sang Zhiheng took the road with his sect master's wife Nie Hongyi, who served his disciples to purify dust and heart, and there were also a hundred disciples carrying guns.
All the people are riding donkeys and walking on the road, which is really a bit spectacular.
Although Sang Zhiheng had never seen the map of the Great Xia Kingdom, according to his observation and calculation through the use of the Earth Escape Technique, the land area of this Great Xia Kingdom should be about the same as that of the Huaxia Kingdom of the Earth World. However, the population of this Great Xia Kingdom is not large, only one hundredth of the Huaxia Kingdom, that is, more than 10 million.
As for the reason why the population of the Great Xia Kingdom is so small, it is mainly because the main food crops are fruits, and the yield of fruits and the number of people who can feed them are far less than the cultivation of food crops.
Moreover, people who eat fruit all day can be seen to be much weaker than those who eat food all day.
Through understanding, Sang Zhiheng knew that in this country, the average life expectancy of people who do not practice is only forty-four or five years old. As soon as the population reaches the age of thirty, it begins to become frail and sickly.
Fruits have too little nutrients, and they need to eat a lot to meet their energy needs for the day, which causes everyone in the immortal cultivation world to eat a lot of food, but they are not fat. They are an ordinary laborer, and they have to eat more than a dozen big apples in one meal, which is really terrifying.
Since Sang Zhiheng introduced corn as a staple food, the physical fitness of the disciples of the Tianmen Sect has improved a lot all of a sudden.
Generally speaking, if you are on foot, you can walk about 100 miles a day, if you ride a donkey, you can walk about 300 miles a day, and if you are riding a horse, you can generally walk 500 or 600 miles a day. Riding a donkey is a way for Sang Zhiheng to travel on a large scale.
As for horses, Sang Zhiheng hadn't thought about it, but a horse in the Immortal Cultivation World was equivalent to the price of ten Yuan Jing Pills. The price is too high for the average person to afford. Of course, it would be nice if some could be transported from the earth world, but the problem is that up to now, the weight of the items that Sang Zhiheng has moved with his divine sense is only sixty or seventy catties at most, and even a newborn pony can't be moved into the Sumeru ring, so this method can only be thought of later.
Of course, after your cultivation level is raised, the weight of the items carried through your divine sense will definitely be greater, but you can only wait for your cultivation level to increase.
Of course, I do need a few horses, and it's good to use them as a means of delivering letters.
Therefore, along the way, Sang Zhiheng had a plan, that is, to lead his disciples to hunt at night, and then get a little Yuan Jing Dan, and after arriving in the national capital, buy a few horses and come back.
Sang Zhiheng and they took the big road, which can be regarded as a provincial road in the Great Xia Kingdom.
The national capital of the Great Xia Kingdom, located about 2,000 miles to the west of the three mountains, is called Shangdu, also known as the national capital, the imperial capital, and Kyoto.
The distance in a straight line is 2,000 li, but because the road is not in a straight line, the total distance traveled is about 2,500 li. Sang Zhiheng: It will take them about ten days to reach the national capital.
The Great Xia Kingdom basically belongs to the constitutional monarchy, the monarch is the spiritual symbol of the country, but there are not many rights, the rights of the state are controlled by the sect committee, and the military power of the state is controlled by the sacred sect.
After the Great Xia Kingdom first established its national capital, it built nine roads leading to the rest of the country with the national capital as the center.
These nine roads are the main roads of national transportation, which are equivalent to the national highways in the earth world.
Along the provincial highway, walk 200 miles, and you will arrive at the provincial capital city of Binhai Road, and then Sang Zhiheng and they can enter the national highway.
On the first day, Sang Zhiheng and their rest destination was Daofu City, and by the way, they had to make some settlements with the director of the Binhai Dao Sect Committee.
Because he lived in the city, Sang Zhiheng had no chance to hunt on the first night.
If you want to hunt, you need to go to the wild, and there are demons and monsters in it.
Then the next day, they walked three hundred miles to the west, came to a more remote inn, and took up their stay.
In ancient times on the earth, there were also post stations, which were used to allow officials to rest and change horses, and ordinary people could not use them. The post station in the world of cultivating immortals is not the same, and his main role is the official hotel.
Because, in this world of cultivating immortals, the power of demons and monsters is very strong, even so strong that humans are in charge of the day, and demons and monsters are in charge of the night. At night, if humans can't rest in the houses built according to the formation pattern, they may be caught by demons and monsters and killed.
However, because of an accidental incident, Sang Zhiheng discovered that killing demons could obtain the Yuan Jing Pill, so this made him feel that it was really a very wasteful thing to hide in the post station at night.
So, as soon as they entered the post station, Sang Zhiheng and the others hurriedly arranged for the disciples to eat, and then began to rest in a hurry.
Sleep first, and then stay for a while to hunt down demons before you have the energy.
At about twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Sang Zhiheng sent someone to wake up a hundred disciples of the Devil Spear Team, and then began the night hunting activities.
To tell the truth, a demon like the Flame Demon King level that Sang Zhiheng encountered last time was almost difficult to encounter around the entire post station.
I don't know what the reason is, the demons encountered around the post station are at most the level that can kill two or three Yuan Jing Dan, and there are still a few who can kill two or three Yuan Jing Dan, and generally it is one.
His own spirit beast, the Green Snake Dream, has to eat a Yuan Jing Pill every day, and he must at least ensure that he has enough Yuan Jing Dan in his Sumeru ring. I heard Youmeng say once before, after he eats the Yuan Jing Pill, his cultivation will increase, and his strength will also increase.
Yumeng seems to be very loyal to himself, and his cultivation seems to be difficult to improve, so he points to improving Yumeng's cultivation a little faster, and then make a difference at the sect conference.
After the hundred members of the Devil Gun Team were woken up, they all looked excited. You know, most of them are educated that they should never go out at night. However, since joining the Tianmen Sect and learning to shoot the devil gun, all their previous deep-rooted concepts have been broken, and they walked out of the room at night and came to the field, completely fine!
Not only is it okay, but if you kill the demons, you can also get a reward from the sect master!
This time, Sang Zhiheng brought the three of them, Shui Changliu, Huo Xiangtian, and Bing Fan Fan, who had the best marksmanship among the disciples of the Tianmen Sect.
After everyone had gathered in the courtyard of the inn, they opened the gate and walked out.
Sang Zhiheng grabbed a pistol in each hand and walked at the forefront.
As soon as he walked out, Sang Zhiheng saw that in front of the gate of the post station, about sixty meters away, there was a mulberry tree, and on the branch of the main trunk, there was an owl that had entered the demon path, which was practicing.
All the beasts that have entered the demon path will emit a faint light, and everyone can see it at a glance.
When Sang Zhiheng saw it, he raised his gun, and with a snap, he killed the owl.
The fire next to him looked to the sky, and immediately ran up with his hands and feet, touching the corpse.
"Sect Master, a Yuan Jing Pill." Huo Xiangtian happily held up a Yuan Jing Pill and ran back.
Sang Zhiheng nodded, took the Yuan Jing Pill handed over to the sky, and then said, "Everyone split up and strive to fight more Yuan Jing Dan tonight." ”
Sang Zhiheng had already arranged in advance, a total of 100 people, divided into ten groups, to search in different directions, and when they were finished, they all returned the same way when they felt that the time was almost up.
As for Sang Zhiheng, he took the two of them with Jingchen and waited at the door of the post station.
After all the disciples were sent away, Sang Zhiheng, who was standing at the door of the post station, heard the sound of gunfire one after another. There is a gunshot, which means that his disciple has discovered the demon class, and if he kills the demon class, it is possible to obtain the Yuan Jing Pill. If you fight Yuan Jing Danduo along the way, when you get to the national capital, you can buy some horses.
Sang Zhiheng waited for boredom, so he asked Jingchen: "Jingchen, I'll leave it to you to play chess." ”
"Playing chess?"
"Yes, I'll give you a game of chess."
While speaking, Sang Zhiheng drew a chessboard with branches on the ground, and then handed it to Jingchen how to play backgammon.
The rules of this backgammon are very simple, and then Jingchen quickly learned and quickly became addicted.
In this way, the two of them played backgammon to pass the time, and the time of the night passed quickly.
Tonight, Sang Zhiheng's disciples had a good income, and a total of twenty Yuan Jing Pills were given to Sang Zhiheng.
These twenty Yuan Jing Dan can buy two horses, Sang Zhiheng nodded with satisfaction.
