Chapter 58: Yecheng, Mouwei County
If you want to say that Chen Tao is the most depressed, it is probably that he is born without a spiritual root. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Everyone has a protagonist dream, but who knows that when it is their turn to cross, they will find that they are just one of the many beings. But today, he understands that no wonder he has no spiritual roots.
It's not that his fortune is shallow, but that his fortune is too thick to get such a super-business system that is against the sky. Not to mention anything else, it is not difficult to see from the explanation of this Yunling Pill that this is definitely the existence of heaven and earth creation. It is precisely because there is such an anti-heaven existence, so the Heavenly Dao allows itself to have no spiritual root in order to balance, right?
Looking at the balance in the supermarket, Chen Tao was aggrieved to find that after buying "Cleansing Spell" just now, it was just less than 300,000. There is no greater pain in the world than this......
Since you don't have the money to buy it, don't put your mind on it, this is Chen Tao's most common way of self-comfort. Otherwise, there are so many things that the world can't afford to buy, and if you really care so much, people will have to suffocate to death.
After spending 50,000 spars to buy a refining furnace, he found that if he was refining the weapon by himself, the spar that would cost him to refine a high-grade magic weapon was only one percent of the spar that he needed to pay for directly buying a high-grade magic weapon. is nine times the profit, and it is really black to the extreme.
Not to mention the soldiers, the creation of magic weapons must be a refining furnace, and the name is similar to the alchemy furnace, but the function is completely different. Chen Tao also knew that the alchemy furnaces and refining furnaces that could be bought at this stage were not particularly good, but it was good to be able to buy them.
In this world, even if you pay three times the price, you may not be able to buy such a good thing.
At this moment, he was only thinking about refining the Ice Spirit Silver Needle and the Flame Sword, so that he could upgrade or something. Anyway, it is also a foundation building period of cultivation, using low-grade magic weapons or even top-level mortal soldiers or something, which is too cheap.
In the next few days, in addition to paying attention to government affairs every day, he spent more time on refining weapons and alchemy. The promotion pill of the Condensing Qi Pill, the Gathering Qi Pill, and the promotion product of the Rejuvenation Pill, Xiao Huandan, and the promotion product of the Rejuvenation Pill, are all his goals, and of course, there are also good things like Bigu Dan.
The excess elixir refined was placed in the merit building, which was the pavilion he presided over to build, with Xu Hui in charge of management, Xin Bi in charge of supervision, and Long Er regularly audited the accounts. The exercises, pills, and magic weapons in it are all paid for by contribution points, and the acquisition of these contribution points is mainly calculated by the usual performance.
It's a bit like 'work points', for example, you can get 0.2 contribution points for a day's effort, and a Qi Condensation Pill needs five contribution points to exchange for something. In any case, Simbi is also responsible for approving prices and quantities of things, and changing the exchange rate in real time.
These hands-on exercises, placed in the merit building, have become a good thing for other people's eyes. However, there are dragon guards patrolling here from time to time, and there is also Xu Hui, an elder in the foundation building period, who is in charge, which is enough to deter Xiaoxiao.
After refining the existence of more than a dozen original top-grade magic weapons into high-grade mortal soldiers, Chen Tao finally got started with refining. It's a pity that his talent in this area really doesn't seem to be as good as alchemy, and he can only refine medium-grade magic weapons.
"My lord, why don't you teach others the method of refining, choose those with extraordinary talents, and set up a refining pavilion for your own use?" One day, Xin Ping saw that he was sullen, so he inquired, and after learning the result, he couldn't help but propose.
"Nakaji Takami! Somebody is negligent! When Chen Tao heard this, he suddenly became excited.
"The lord is also a fan of the authorities, and sooner or later he will be able to figure it out." Xin Ping was immediately flattered.
The paper refining method is the expenditure of 30,000 spars, but it is rare that anyone can read it, and the refining furnace is also used by everyone in turn, ten days per person. After all, in addition to being a monk, everyone also has a secular position, so they can't be wasted because of this.
In the end, Zhao Feng had the highest talent for refining, and naturally became the master of the Refining Pavilion. At the same time, the female disciple of the Dao Cultivation Academy was also inspected for having a good talent for refining, and was classified into the Refining Pavilion as a deputy.
After another three days, a heavy knife full of evil aura was sent to Chen Tao. The flame lines on his body are clearly visible, and he has already felt the hot feeling without touching it, and he is only slightly injected with true qi in his hand, and the raging flames rise. Since he had already confessed to the Lord, these flames would not hurt Chen Tao, but just moxibustion and roasting actually made the dwarf three meters away carbonize, and it could be ignited at any time.
The instrument turned as he wished, and with Chen Tao's thoughts, the big knife shrank to the size of an ordinary knife and was hung on his waist. Chen Tao was very satisfied with this high-grade magic weapon, but at this moment, it was not good to call it a fire knife, so he named it 'True Fire Knife'.
The silver needles of ten high-grade magic weapons were also sent to him, and with the imperial sword technique, the silver needles broke through the air but were also full of power. The penetration and sturdiness have been greatly improved, and it is called the 'Deadly Flying Needle'.
is still following the poison needle routine, but in terms of quenching the poison, Chen Tao himself will carry out it. The toxin is made of three insects and three flowers, and the monk in the foundation building period is afraid that he will not be better if he is beaten, unless he is a poisonous cultivator like him.
The armor has also been improved, and the body is wearing a gossip silkworm suit, which is not afraid of cold and heat after wearing it, and can block the full force of the foundation building period, and can accelerate the absorption speed of Yicheng's aura; Wearing wind dragon leather boots, using a century-old crocodile skin as the main material, with the effect of the wind spell attached, you can fly 100 meters above the ground to resist the wind with all your strength, but it consumes very true qi.
Holding the Qiankun ring, it is made of mustard stone as a medium, with an internal space of ten square meters; The waist is equipped with a pure heart warm jade pendant, which is refined with white marble as the main material, which has the effect of purifying the heart and suppressing the demons.
That's probably what a shotgun is. It's just that the consumption is a bit high, and the spar is almost exhausted. Leaving 10,000 spars is also just in case.
Chen Tao can't look down on the exercises, after the approval of the value-added service area, the exercises that can be provided in the Xuan-level area are at most the same as the "Red Practice Secret Method", but they are far inferior in practice; Compared with "Nine Turns Heavenly Demon Transformation", it is even more incomparable, according to the results of the appraisal, "Nine Transformations of Heavenly Demon Transformation" should be regarded as a heaven-level exercise, in other words, there is no need to change the cultivation method.
During this period, Zhang Yan of the Black Mountain Army came to visit by chance and brought 200,000 spars. Through conversation, I learned that the situation of the Black Mountain Army was not very optimistic, and Huang Long, Yang Feng and others were all killed in this demon catastrophe. However, according to Chen Tao's understanding of him, I am afraid that things are not so simple.
Now that the Black Mountain Army is gone, the population has been greatly reduced, but fortunately, I have gained a lot of benefits in the Dragon Fantasy Realm before, so I have persevered. Of the 200,000 spars, 100,000 are thank-you gifts, and they naturally know that if they hadn't attracted most of the demon army, things wouldn't have been so simple.
The remaining 100,000 hedras were used to trade goods, especially crossbows and bolts. The lack of enough strong crossbows was also the key to the heavy losses of the Montenegrin army this time. Chen Tao did not refuse, but the price was not too cheap, and Zhang Yan also pinched his nose and admitted it.
Now that the spar is relatively easy to come, it is obvious that the transaction will continue in the future, and this time it is just a way to explore.
In the next few days, the Wu'an stronghold and the Luxian stronghold also came to trade, and the transaction amount of 500,000 yuan went out, and the war was really the fastest time to get rich, and the mountains were full of monster corpses, and there was really no shortage of spars.
After deducting the cost of the part of the goods traded, Chen Tao made a net profit of 550,000 spars, which was really a huge profit.
I simply spent 300,000 spars to buy the Yunling Pill, and then I couldn't wait to take it. The pill melted in its mouth, turning into a clear stream, but instead of heading in the direction of the dantian, it moved towards the brain.
Then, I only felt a splitting headache, perhaps because this was the process of brain domain development and transformation. Eventually, there was a tingling pain all over the body, and apparently as the brain was remodeled, the DNA began to be modified to adapt to the changes in the brain.
I don't know how long it took, anyway, for Chen Tao, it seems that tens of millions of years have passed, and the transformation is over.
Running the exercises again, I only felt that the efficiency had increased by one percent, even if I no longer took poison, the aura began to stay in the body and then slowly transformed and absorbed, unlike before, there was no way to retain it at all. Chen Tao was excited at that time, because from today on, he also has a spiritual root!
It is not as good as the existence of the Xin brothers, or even Zhao Feng, a natural spiritual root, but with no spiritual root, Chen Tao is already very satisfied. Moreover, what if the supermarket is upgraded to the prefecture level, or even the heavenly pole?
He seemed to realize that he might not be able to become the legendary Heavenly Spirit Root in the future!
The only thing worth sighing about is that upgrading to the prefecture level requires 10 million spars, and the road to upgrading is a long way to go...... In particular, he seemed to feel that even if he reached the Heavenly Extreme, it might not be the end of cultivation, but perhaps it was the beginning of something.
It's just that the prefecture level has not been upgraded to a higher level, so what is the higher level? Perhaps, this is just my own heart?!
The reconstruction work of Sheguo County has been completed, but the population is hard to lose, and if you want to expand the scope of influence and influence, population is the key! But how do you get the population the fastest? In addition to natural growth and encouraging fertility, it seems that it can only rob other strongholds!
The entire Wei County can be said to be the target of his robbery, including the Wu'an stronghold that he had traded with before. But if you want to say that the first target to attack, it is still the Yecheng stronghold, right?!
Yecheng and Wei County, both of which were still in the hands of Han Fu, sacrificed at least fifty percent of the population in the two places in this catastrophe. Considering that he has reduced the pressure on them a lot, it is normal for the population to be kept a little more.
According to the spies' report, the population of the two places is now conservatively estimated to be 150,000, more than five times that of the state-related strongholds. There are 50,000 soldiers with armor and 50,000 militiamen, almost all of whom have cultivated internal strength. Most of the officers are third-rate mid-level cultivators, the deputy generals are all third-rate late-stage ranks, and Guan Chun Gengwu, who is the leader, is a second-rate mid-term cultivator.
It is rumored that there are three monks, one is a Fu Zhu, who is already an eighth-level Qi cultivator; One is called Zhen Yan, a seventh-layer monk who practices qi; The last one is named Zhen Yao, a sixth-level Qi cultivator. According to the spies, the latter two monks were the children of the Zhen family of Zhongshan Wuji.
After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the head of the Zhen family, the original Cai Ling Zhen Yi died at the hands of the Yellow Turban thieves, and the children came to Wei County with their mother Zhang for refuge. Some time ago, in the midst of the catastrophe, the two of them performed well and were conquered by Han Fu.
Chen Tao still remembered that Xin Ping said to him with an encouraging smile: "Wen Zhang's is only twenty-seven years old this year, but he is still beautiful and moving when he is older. There are still five daughters under the knees, each of whom is beautiful and moving, and it is a gift on the couch. Among them young. Female Zhen Mi, when she was young, she had a priest who said that she would be unspeakably expensive in the future, but she was the queen of the Mandate of Heaven......"
"Zhongzhi, if you have something to say, you can say it directly." Chen Tao said with black lines on his head.
"In this day and age, the lord has no heirs, and his stronghold is unstable!" Xin Ping replied as a matter of course.
This is a typical emperor who is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry, but partial life is really a wise saying in this era, not to mention anything else, just look at the other people with the same look, Chen Tao knows that it is time to consider this matter.
P.S: Actually, encouraging the protagonist to get married or something can be regarded as a sign of loyalty. If you have a different heart, I'm afraid that you can't wait for the protagonist to cut off your children and grandchildren. And the worry is not groundless, the tribulation will become more dangerous again and again, it is impossible to say that they themselves may be killed, not afraid of 10,000 just in case, the situation is more severe than the original time and space of the Three Kingdoms, and it is understandable to take extraordinary measures in extraordinary times.
