The next day.

Morning.

The people in the gourd valley shook one after another.

In the center of the school field, a very tall statue appeared, which was exactly the same as the appearance of their "emperor", but it was more imposing, more expressive, and shocking.

"What kind of weapon is that...... Looks amazing......"

"Could it be that this is the image of the emperor when he was the crown prince in the heavenly court?"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Many people were shocked, and some people spontaneously knelt down towards the statue, which gradually affected everyone, and soon, everyone knelt down towards the statue and shouted long live.

At this time, Li Yi had already gotten up and was practicing calligraphy at his desk.

Sensing the increase in the power of a large amount of faith, it was not much different from the usual time when he went to the early dynasty, and the corners of Li Yi's mouth hooked slightly.

It seems that he was right.

This step, he can be regarded as a success.

This is of epoch-making significance.

Not only does it mean that he can do this in the gourd valley, but in the future, he can do it somewhere else.

"You...... The thing you've been making people do these days is that statue outside? ”

Qin Wan walked in from the outside and said with a strange expression.

She knew that Li Yi was very busy these days, especially the matter of having people transport stones from the mountains and find stonemasons to carve, Li Yi looked very important, but she never knew what Li Yi planned to do.

Now, seeing the results, she doesn't know what to say.

Every morning, Li Yi asked everyone to go to the morning pilgrimage, and the mountain shouted long live, and that's it.

Now, Li Yi is leaving, and he deliberately made a statue for people to kneel and worship, what kind of thinking is this? Do you want people to bow down like that?

But...... Seriously, the quality of that statue outside is indeed extremely high!

When she first saw it, she was also shocked.

I can't help but fantasize, if Li Yi is also dressed like that, will he be as powerful as the man in the statue?

Soon, though, she shook her head.

Li Yi is just a scholar, he is only sixteen years old this year, the statue outside is obviously a powerful general, how can Li Yi have the temperament of the other party?

Scholars and generals, the temperament of the two is too different.

If you don't have the strength to dress up like that, you will only draw a tiger and not an anti-dog.

Yes, during this time, Li Yi did not show his strength in front of Qin Wan and Qin Jiu, and Qin Wan and the three did not know Li Yi's true force.

"You know what? This is to deepen my impression in everyone's minds, and after a long time, they will be able to believe in me more! Li Yi glanced at Qin Wan and said.

"Could it be that this is the secret of your ability to subdue so many people so quickly?" Qin Wan's eyes lit up, and she looked like she had suddenly realized, and her tone was a little excited.

It's as if she has finally discovered Li Yi's biggest secret.

"You're smart enough to react so quickly."

Li Yi said with a smile.

"Humph! I'm already smart! You still need to say it! Qin Wan looked up lightly and said with a smug look.

July 24.

Night.

Li Yi recruited a large number of henchmen.

Chen Wenhao and Sun Donghan were all promoted to intermediate military divisions.

Deng Shihu, upgraded to a high-level horse thief.

Qi Zheng and promoted to mid-level general.

Imperial Physician Qi, upgraded to a senior doctor.

Zhang Whirlwind, the former master of Heifeng Village, since the surrender of Li Yi, soon became very loyal to Li Yi, and turned to the profession of guard, has been following Li Yi as a guard, Li Yi has long promoted the other party to an intermediate guard, in February, when participating in the Qinglong party, Li Yi took the other party to go.

In the blink of an eye, a few months have passed, and this time, Li Yi also promoted the other party to a senior guard.

In addition, Li Yi selected three more hunters, all of whom were promoted to high-level hunters, and gave each of them a set of high-level bows and arrows.

In fact, people in the archer profession, at the same level, have stronger archery skills than hunters, however, this is the Hengling Mountain Range, and the role of hunters is greater, Li Yi did not hesitate, so he chose to upgrade the hunter.

Then, Li Yi upgraded three more senior soldiers.

At this point, Li Yi took a deep breath.

Originally, the power of his faith had accumulated more than 3,000 points.

A few days ago, it cost a thousand points to upgrade Zhao Ergou.

It took more than a hundred points to upgrade a dozen stonemasons.

Last night, it took more than a hundred points to upgrade the statue.

Miscellaneous, and it took a few.

These days...... It rose by another seven or eight hundred points......

However, after this time, there are only a thousand and dozens of points left.

A thousand points of faith power can upgrade a high-level character to a more advanced character!

Li Yi pondered whether to upgrade to a more advanced character!

If you upgrade, who will this place spend on!

Undoubtedly, if there is an additional more advanced character who stays in Hulu Valley, it may make Hulu Valley safer!

If you follow them, you can also make them safer!

Li Yi thought of Qin Yi's archery skills that Qin Wan had described earlier...... If there really can be such a strong person, this idea is really not an exaggeration!

If he spends this quota on the people who stay in the gourd valley...... When the power of his faith increases, he can raise the level of the people around him at any time!

If he spent this quota on the level of the people around him, then he would not be able to upgrade the people of Hulu Valley before he came back!

In case, something happens to Hulu Valley during this period, it is really beyond the reach of the whip!

After thinking about it, Li Yi asked everyone to disperse, leaving Zhao Ergou alone.

Then, Li Yi told Zhao Ergou about this matter cryptically and asked for his opinion.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that you use this promotion quota for the people around you." After hearing this, Zhao Ergou did not hesitate and immediately said.

"Why?" Li Yi asked.

"The biggest reason is naturally that the emperor's safety is the most important, and furthermore, from here to the border of Dashang and Baiyue, there are only three or four hundred miles, if you hurry quickly, you may arrive in three or four days, at that time, the emperor does not know what kind of enemy he is facing, and naturally the stronger he is, the better."

"As for Hulu Valley, the strength of the people left behind here is already very strong, and the general forces, even the ordinary officers and soldiers, can't help us at all, if there is really a powerful force of officers and soldiers that we can't resist, even if the emperor promotes a more powerful figure, it will not help."

Zhao Ergou said seriously.

"You have a point."

Li Yi nodded.

From the Hulu Valley to the border between Baiyue and Dashang, it is not too far, if it is really reached in three or four days, at that time, he can only obtain another seven or eight hundred points of faith power at most, even if you add the power of faith obtained tomorrow, it will be less than a thousand points of faith power.

Not enough for him to upgrade to a more powerful character again.

"Then you say, is it better for me to promote a more powerful character, or to promote multiple of the current Li Ling guards, a character like General Zheng An?" After a pause, Li Yi asked again.

"I suggest that the emperor promote a more powerful character." Zhao Ergou said seriously.
