Chapter 33: Development in Peace
Yinshan City has regained its former calm, and with the addition of Lang Lihong, Qi Sheng's workload has decreased a lot, so he is often pulled by Liu Qiang to learn.
Of course, Lang Lihong is no exception, and is often pulled by Liu Qiang to learn.
I don't know if it's intentional or not, since Liu Qiang often pulls the two people who used to be the thirteenth Taibao to fight, the two of them handed over many things in Yanshan City to Huang Nan, who has successfully broken through, to deal with, and Zhou Heng was also borrowed from Liu Qiang's side by the two of them to arrange many things.
The reputation of the city is getting stronger and stronger, and the number of people who come to settle in the city is also increasing.
After Liu Qiang directly brought all the more than 30,000 people under his command to Yinshan City in Langlihong, Liu Qiang strictly ordered that those who came to settle in Yinshan City in the future would have to go through layers of audits, and those who were extremely vicious were directly excluded.
However, even so, when Liu Qiang noticed it, he found that there were nearly 100,000 people in Yanshan City, and at least half of these people were immortal cultivators.
On this day, it was Lang Lihong's turn to accompany Liu Qiang to learn, taking advantage of the free time to rest, Liu Qiang lazily lay on the ground and asked Lang Lihong: "I'm very curious, how many people are there in Zixu, why is the proportion of immortal cultivators so large?"
In the Dongwu Kingdom, on the whole, there may not be one immortal cultivator among a hundred people, even if it is the Central Empire and the Blood Demon Sect, from what Ming Si heard about at the beginning, the number of immortal cultivators is almost one in fifty or sixty people, and the proportion is already quite large.
But after truly understanding the Purple Void, Liu Qiang found that the number of immortal cultivators here was not ordinarily large, and the proportion was even larger.
Since becoming Liu Qiang's subordinate, although he has been constantly studied by Liu Qiang, he has been abused again and again.
But Lang Lihong's strength increased very quickly, and following Liu Qiang, he was able to comprehend some swordsmanship a lot faster.
In just half a month, Lang Lihong felt that his combat power had at least doubled.
After half a month of contact, Lang Lihong realized that Liu Qiang is actually very easy to get along with, and he also likes to be lively, especially when he treats several of them who have sworn allegiance, he is like a family.
It's just that Liu Qiang still has the power that he should have, and when they make mistakes, Liu Qiang's criticism is not something that ordinary people can bear.
Unconsciously, Lang Lihong also began to like this feeling, but when Liu Qiang asked about the situation of the Purple Void Immortal Cultivator, Lang Lihong couldn't help but feel sad.
"The lord should know that the Purple Void and the other six places are the places specially opened up by the Blood Demon Sect and the Central Empire to hide filth and filth, and there are a mixture of fish and snakes here, and those outlaws and extremely vicious people who were deliberately exiled to the territory of the Blood Demon Sect and the Central Empire by other immortal sects are also strictly controlled by the Blood Demon Sect and the Central Empire in the seven places such as the Purple Void......"
Listening to Lang Lihong's slow words, Liu Qiang finally understood the reason why there were so many Purple Void Immortal cultivators and such a large proportion.
In general, there is only one sentence, the strength is not strong, and there is no qualification to be a bad guy in the Tianxuan Continent.
Among the bad guys, most of them are immortal cultivators, and those who can be specially exiled by the Immortal Cloud Sect and the Dongwu Kingdom to disrupt the order of the Blood Demon Sect and the Central Empire are all the strongest among the immortal cultivators.
As a result, a cycle was formed, and the number of Purple Void Immortal cultivators slowly increased.
And some powerful immortal cultivators, because they have powerful enemies outside, will also choose to hide in prison-like places like Zixu in order to avoid pursuit.
I learned from Langlihong's mouth that most people living in the purple void are eager to live in peace and stability, but there are too many brutal guys living in the purple void, and they are not satisfied with each other, and they also like to attack each other in gangs, which has formed the chaotic situation of the purple void.
"What about you? Are you here to escape your enemies, or are you being exiled?"
It's been more than ten years since I came to Zixu, and for the first time, someone asked why I came in, and Lang Lihong was a little uncomfortable.
However, he was relieved to think that he had already served Liu Qiang, and he believed that by following Liu Qiang, there would always be a chance to leave Zixu openly and return to his hometown in the future.
"I was originally the son of the Wang family of the Left General Mansion of the Dongwu Kingdom, our Wang family lost power in the court, the Wang family was wiped out, and all the men who cultivated immortals were exiled, so I escaped, and was chased and killed all the way, no way, I fled into the purple void nearby. ”
Knowing Lang Lihong's experience, Liu Qiang finally understood why Lang Lihong had that kind of loyal and patriotic thoughts, and he was originally born in a Jiangmen family.
However, Lang Lihong came from Dongwu Kingdom, which made Liu Qiang very surprised, and his good impression of Lang Lihong in his heart couldn't help but raise another level.
"Lord, now that there are 100,000 people gathered in Mourning Mountain City, it won't be long before someone will come to find trouble, I suggest that you quickly build a strong army, and then carefully select a real elite from the army, who is responsible for your safety and directly obeys you!"
Born in a family of generals, Lang Lihong has his own uniqueness in the army, and it is precisely because of this that he is different from other thirteen Taibao, and there are more people around him who are willing to follow than Qi Sheng and others.
The city has begun to take shape, the population is also quite large, and the number of immortal cultivators is even more considerable, and it is fully qualified to build an army.
Moreover, Liu Qiang has long been brewing to establish a team of his own, rather than simply attracting some strong people who are loyal to him.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you, first train a team of 3,000 people, and then carefully select 300 people to form my own escort team, all the resources needed, find Qi Sheng to ask for it." ”
Originally, I just said it simply, but I didn't expect Liu Qiang to really support his approach, and Lang Lihong was very moved.
However, when it comes to building a team of 3,000 people, the resources required will definitely not be a small amount.
"With the ruins of the Dead Mountain as the center, build an inner city, twenty miles long and wide, ten zhang high and three zhang wide, dig a moat outside the city wall, and then divide the area in the city according to the shape of a well, build houses, and build it completely according to the model of the general castle when you were in Tobu Province, and complete it within three months, right?"
Nearly 100,000 people live in Yinshan City, which has made the situation in Yinshan City a little chaotic, if it weren't for the prestige suppression of Qi Sheng and Lang Lihong, there would have been a big conflict long ago.
Therefore, Liu Qiang said the ideas that had been planned before and asked Lang Lihong to implement them.
"But my lord, if we really want to do that, we need to spend at least nearly 10 million materials of lower grade spirit stones, where do we have so much money?"
"Find Qi Sheng to ask for it! Take out all your family resources, if it's not enough, I'll find a way for you, anyway, you must build me a real city, I want to build a safest trading place in the purple void to collect money!"
If you want to really establish a force that belongs to him, Liu Qiang is not stupid and wants to throw money into it all the time.
What was the original purpose of building up the power? First, it was to have people available to him, and second, it was to help him gather the resources he needed for cultivation.
Liu Qiang directly stated his ultimate goal, which made Lang Lihong excited.
Because of Liu Qiang's idea, it is entirely possible to realize it, if they really build the largest and safest city in Zixu, they will be able to do business with everyone in Zixu.
