Chapter 175: Thankfully, You Didn't Move to Los Angeles
When the sun set over the Sierra Nevada, Zhang Cheng drove back to the ranch, and by this time the Lincoln Navigator had arrived. After changing cars in the garage, Zhang Cheng drove the navigator back to the big house.
At night, after the Emily sisters fell asleep, Zhang Cheng got up and carried the M1A out quietly. By moonlight, Zhang Cheng walked around the ranch and finally found the waterhole and waterfall here. Zhang Cheng had excellent eyesight and found that there were a large number of salmon swimming in the waterhole, although they were not very large, but this was also a surprise - they could come here to fish in the future.
But there are also doubts that the streams here do not lead to the sea - most of the water flowing down from the mountains is used for agricultural and animal husbandry, and a small amount of water flows into the Nevada desert and then disappears. Where does salmon come from in this environment? Approximately it can only be explained by artificially farmed ones.
If you find Shentan Waterfall, you won't be far from another villa here, but that villa is not Zhang Cheng's goal. Zhang Cheng didn't come out at night to relax, but to improve the variety of vegetation here.
Zhang Cheng left the waterhole and walked along the stream for some distance, finding a low bush that did not seem to be used for grazing, Zhang Cheng casually destroyed the nearby bushes, then took out some seeds sealed with amber from the Qiankun bag, melted the amber on the outside of the seeds, injected the seeds with a trace of life, and planted them on the ground.
These seeds are large and small, all of which are some crops inherited and improved by Zhang Cheng in his previous life, including the seeds of the tea tree, because they have been improved many times with the means of the immortals, this immortal tea can refresh the brain, clear the fat, dissolve the stasis, and detoxify the effect, although I dare not say that it can cure all diseases - there is only opium in the world, you read that right. Opium can indeed effectively treat and alleviate more than 100 diseases, and the earliest Chinese and European doctors carried it as a necessary medicine for their visits, and another alias of opium in China is also called foreign medicine.
In addition to the tea garden, Zhang Cheng also opened up a large medicine garden, where a lot of medicinal materials were planted for future alchemy. In addition to the medicine garden and tea garden, Zhang Cheng planted an improved purple bamboo, the effect of this bamboo forest is to protect the tea garden medicine field inside - to avoid wild beasts from entering, especially wild boars, badgers and other animals to destroy, and the second is that although this purple bamboo can not be used as a weapon and medicinal materials, this purple bamboo can be used instead of jade to arrange the formation after it grows up. And the purple bamboo shoots and purple bamboo rice produced by this purple bamboo forest are the ingredients of the fairy family.
After arranging the tea garden, medicine garden, and bamboo forest. Zhang Cheng felt that the consumption was quite large, so he simply sat on the ground and found a big stone to meditate and rest - the tea garden was just a few acres of land, and the medicine garden and bamboo forest were all big projects covering an area of hundreds of acres. Especially the medicine garden. It is also cultivated according to the different habits of each drug.
While meditating and resting, Zhang Cheng watched the bamboo forests, tea trees and various medicinal herbs grow visible to the naked eye. Secretly thought to himself: "There are three of the four wealth and law. It's a good level to start with. It's a pity that now the sky is in chaos, and I can't see the general trend clearly. ”
The so-called celestial phenomena do not refer to the movement of the stars in the sky, but to the general trend of the world. If you can see the general trend of the world, as long as you live a long time or read more history books, you can roughly deduce it. Zhang Cheng remembers when he first started as a teacher. The result of the master's calculation is: 300 years of human calamity, swords and soldiers.
This sentence means that in about 300 years, the people of the world will experience a large-scale war and strife, and it will take about 60 years to eliminate the war.
It can be calculated, because this is an unavoidable thing, and the speed of land development and population growth after human beings enter the agrarian society are not equal. Moreover, the amount of land, especially arable land, is limited, and population growth, in the words of Yugong, is infinite.
After the Second Industrial Revolution, all kinds of new technologies in medicine and agriculture emerged one after another, which not only increased grain production, but also greatly increased the number of people and life expectancy, Zhang Cheng could not see when the contradiction would erupt, but it is certain that the rate of food growth is far less than the rate of population growth -- unless the whole world plays family planning together, but this is obviously completely impossible, for religious beliefs and various reasons, everyone would rather open the film at that time than play family planning.
For this human tribulation that I don't know when, but finally came back, what Zhang Cheng can do is to strengthen himself first. Needless to say, whether it is the Aoki Recipe that has been completed or the electromagnetic Recipe that is used as a room technique, it is excellent.
The couple item is completely blank, although Zhang Cheng has no shortage of women around him, but Taoist couples have to talk about fate, and no one can do anything if fate doesn't arrive.
In addition to inheriting a large amount of wealth in his previous life, Zhang Cheng's industry has also produced hematopoietic ability, but Zhang Cheng is used to not trusting paper money (complete credit currency), and it is a good choice whether it is spent or invested if there is more money.
In this case, Zhang Cheng has just completed the construction. For the monks who cultivated the Aoki Jue, the medicine garden was built, and the land was also available. Of course, it would be better if there were a few jade veins, but considering the labor costs in the United States, even if they are found, they may not be able to be developed in the United States.
Just as Zhang Cheng was about to lose his mind, he heard a crisp voice in his ears, and a female voice said in Chinese: "Yo, the medicine garden was built so quickly." ”
Zhang Cheng has already developed the state of mind that Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change, and in the middle of the night, he heard that someone was not frightened, but put out a tea bowl and teapot melon seeds and peanuts on the stone, looking like he wanted to drink tea and watch a play, and asked: "I don't know which faction of Taoist friends came to visit late at night?" ”
Zhang Cheng said calmly, in fact, Zhang Cheng was still full of excitement in his heart, and finally met a Taoist friend, and finally saw it. Because there are almost no monks in the country - Zhang Cheng looks at the history and thinks that it is likely that they were suppressed together as cows, ghosts, snakes and gods decades ago, of course, this is not very possible for real monks, although the monks have some difficulty fighting against the state machine, but it is still no problem to escape.
Then there is a great possibility that the monks in China have gone abroad, and it is very risky to play a circle in the Middle East and Africa, which is not suitable for immigration at all. The chances of coming to Europe and the United States are much greater.
After meeting the contemporary monks, Zhang Cheng was able to find a way to integrate into the local circle of monks. Zhang Cheng still has some experience in refining the elixir and combining the medicine into the zuò magic weapon - I don't know if these methods of the monks have become more sophisticated or regressed over the years. In short, it is definitely good to be able to communicate with each other.
Within the visual range of Zhang Cheng under the moon, a young girl riding a black bear and wearing a Hanfu robe whispered, "Jinshan Sect Caiyun has seen a Western sect saint. ”
Zhang Cheng heated the tea in the pot with anger, poured himself a cup, drank it in one gulp, and said to the colorful cloud: "You also come to joke, what Western saints." ”
Caiyun, who was riding a black bear, approached, and faced Zhang Cheng who was sitting on the stone mountain, and said, "Don't say that, others can't borrow the momentum of the Western religion." ”
The face is relatively Zhang Cheng saw that the girl was also delicate and lovely, and looked at the body with anger in his eyes, and a stream of water vapor was entangled, thinking that it was a water repair, and when he changed his electromagnetic eyes to look at the past, the magnetic field strength on Caiyun's body was stronger than that of the leaves. It seems that the cultivation time is not long, Zhang Cheng asked, "Sister Caiyun......"
Caiyun pretended to be angry: "Call sister, I'm older than you." ”
Zhang Cheng had to change his words: "Sister Caiyun, my master hasn't talked to me about other sects, it's good for Sister Caiyun to talk to me." ”
Caiyun: "Then tell me first, which faction are you?" ”
Zhang Cheng: "The master didn't say, according to the current division, it should be on the side of Christ - I really have some contact with them." ”
Caiyun: "I'm not old and has a strict mouth, so my master didn't even tell you by name, right?" ”
Zhang Cheng: "My master just said that his Taoist name is Aoki, and he didn't talk about the rest." ”
Caiyun: "What about your Dao number?" ”
"Qinglian." Zhang Cheng casually borrowed the Taoist name of his previous life, anyway, Zhang Cheng was not a famous monk in his previous life.
Caiyun said: "It's not that I can't tell you, but I can't say it in vain." ”
Zhang Cheng: "I don't know what Sister Caiyun wants?" ”
Caiyun pointed to the medicine garden: "Look at your medicine garden, it must be used for alchemy and medicine, can you refine a furnace of elixir for me." ”
In fact, I have hundreds of millions of pills on my body, of course, I can't say this, I am angry and this Zhang Cheng is going to cry. Zhang Cheng thought about it, just the elixir that he remembered had three recipes that could be refined, and the medicinal materials were also on hand - having a medicine garden was this benefit, and the unripe medicinal materials were ripe.
Zhang Cheng immediately agreed: "It's no problem. ”
Caiyun was secretly happy when he saw Zhang Chengying, and said casually: "Let me first talk about our Jinshan faction, which used to be called Hainan faction, and changed its name after moving to San Francisco, USA. Of course, the sect is no longer in San Francisco, but the name is still left, and Northern California in this area of San Francisco is the sphere of influence of our Jinshan faction. ”
Zhang Cheng secretly commented in his heart: "It's good that you didn't move to Los Angeles." ”
I only heard Caiyun say again: "This area of Southern California is the sphere of influence of the Dongshan faction."
Zhang Cheng interjected and asked, "Shouldn't the one in Los Angeles be called pheasant pie?" ”
Caiyun: "Who will come up with that kind of name, you say it or I say it." ”
Zhang Cheng: "You say it, you say it." ”
Caiyun: "On the side of the Great Lakes in the east, there is also a Five Lakes Sect, which is the largest sect in the east. The rest are monk families, and there are still hundreds of monk families in the United States. There are also two sects and some monk families in Canada to the north, and there are not many people who have no connection with our Jinshan sect, and I don't know what the name is.
South America, South Seas, Africa, Australia, and Europe all have monk sects and monk families. Over the years, some people have returned to China, but they just go back to have a look, one does not open the mountain gate, and the other does not accept disciples. ”
Sure enough, they all went out, which was similar to what Zhang Cheng thought, but Zhang Cheng didn't expect that there were people in Africa, but if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising that war is also an opportunity.
After understanding the layout of the modern monks, Zhang Cheng asked, "Sister Caiyun came to visit late at night, not just to meet some Western saints, right?" (To be continued......)
