It didn't matter if he investigated this time, Xue Ning found that this ink-black space ring was indeed the one he used in his previous life. It's just that I don't know what the reason is, the original silver-white space ring has actually become the inky black it is now. It's no wonder that Xue Ning didn't recognize it immediately just now.

Unexpectedly found the space ring of his previous life, Xue Ning's heart was both happy and worried.

Xue Ning was pleased that although many precious materials and magic weapons in his space ring had been used up during his tribulation, some of the remaining things in it were extremely useful to him now.

What Xue Ning was worried about was that from beginning to end, Xue Ning felt that it seemed that there was an invisible hand controlling everything. Including his own unexpected rebirth, as well as the strange appearance of his own space ring just now. Everything seems to be moving according to the arrangement of some mysterious person.

In the dark, Xue Ning always felt that a pair of eyes were staring at him at this moment.

This feeling can be said to be quite bad. Xue Ning was extremely disgusted by this uncontrollable feeling.

After worrying for a long time, Xue Ning finally turned his heart sideways: "Forget it, I can't figure it out anyway, so I just don't want to." ”

It has been a while since the Yuan Shen entered this world, and during this time, there was no Yuan Shen to guard the body, and I hope that nothing will go wrong with my body. Xue Ning thought worriedly.

Trying to leave this mysterious inky world, but the problem is, Xue Ning didn't know how to leave here at all, helplessly, Xue Ning had to try to exude his thoughts of wanting to leave this world.

This time, Xue Ning tried the right thing again, Xue Ning only felt that his eyes were dark again, and his Yuan Shen returned to the inside of the sea of knowledge.

Leaving the supernatural world of the Ink World, Xue Ning's Yuan Shen once again fell into a state of self-sealing.

The incomparably powerful strength withdrew, and in an instant, Xue Ning was indescribably disappointed. But after being lost, Xue Ning suddenly opened his eyes: "Strength, you must improve your strength quickly." ”

In the previous life, he was a superstitious Taoist cultivator who specialized in the Yuan Shen side. I thought that with the power of the primordial gods, all three thousand worlds could be visited. But when Xue Ning really faced the huge Thunder Tribulation Heavenly Might, Xue Ning thought again than once, if he could still have the Rou Body at that time, then that mortal Thunder Tribulation might still be able to find a trace of life.

He had already failed once, and Xue Ning knew that with his own character, even if he cultivated again, in the end, God was afraid that he would still give him another Zixiao God Destroying Thunder. Is it going to fail again at that time?

No! In a pig's eye!

Thinking of the terrifying thunderstorm, I recalled the playful breath of God that I felt when I was in the thunderstorm. Xue Ning's heart became more and more determined with a thought.

"In this life, I not only have to cultivate my soul, but also refine my body!"

"Taoism pays attention to abandoning the body and placing the original spirit in the void, but I want to integrate the two and cultivate the soul and body. Thief God, look at it, even if you come to the Purple Sky Exterminating God Thunder again this time, I will break your heavens! ”

……

After Shi Yi was appointed by Xue Ning, he immediately began to rectify the giant wolf cottage, such as the statistics of personnel, the replanning of the internal environment of the cottage, and the writing of the cottage contribution system. The original giant wolf cottage was just ruled by a group of bandits who had no ideals and only knew how to kill and plunder. So although the giant wolf cottage is rich, it is actually a mess inside. Including ordinary migrant workers, there are many cases of open defecation inside the cottage.

Now Shi Yi has taken over the management of the cottage. Everything has to be done according to the new rules. Because no one has this ability, everything needs Shi Yi to worry about.

Although Shi Yi was very tired, he worked extremely hard, and he was depressed for a long time.

"Well, I read some of your new management regulations for the cottage, very good, I agree, but this last one, build a stone city, consolidate the external defense ...... of the cottage" Xue Ning held the bamboo slips that Shi Yi wrote to himself about various new measures for the cottage, and examined them one by one, and when he saw Shi Yi proposing to build a stone city for your cottage, Xue Ning stopped.

"General Xue, I plan to build the stone city as an important plan for the future. After all, I also know that it is not so easy to build a stone city, and it is difficult to carry out it with the current manpower of our cottage. ”

In front of Xue Ning, Shi Yi behaved very respectfully, and did not dare to show an arrogant attitude, because Shi Yi knew that everything he had was given to him by Xue Ning in front of him, and if he wanted to achieve his revenge, he had to get Xue Ning's support.

"No, Shi Yi, you misunderstood what I meant, my consciousness is that the idea of building a stone city is very good, this idea should not be used as an important plan for the future, but should be put in the present, and the sooner the better."

Xue Ning's words stunned Shi Yi at that time.

"But~~ However, this excavation of stones, and the manpower to build the city......"

"You don't have to worry about the stones, the manpower is completely enough with our cottage now. Shi Yi, you go back and prepare for the construction of the city first, and you will understand in the afternoon if you don't understand. ”

Xue Ning waved his hand and signaled that Shi Yi could go down.

Shi Yi left Xue Ning's room with a lot of doubts, no matter how Shi Yi wanted to break his head, he couldn't imagine how he could build a stone city right now with these people in the current cottage.

"Build a stone city? Well, a stone city should indeed be built. Originally, even if Shi Yi didn't mention it, Xue Ning planned to strengthen the giant wolf cottage as a whole.

The existing gate of the cottage is completely wooden, and the giant wolf mountain range is mostly pine, and the gate of the cottage here is naturally all made of tall pine wood.

Although the pine wood is strong, it is very easy to catch fire, although the giant wolf cottage is built in a valley in the middle of the mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and a wooden gate on one side. With such a structure, if it is an ordinary person, it is really not easy to capture the cottage, not to mention that the Giant Wolf Mountain Range also has natural protection, poisonous insect miasma.

But the problem is that Bai Yu took advantage of the chaos when Xue Ning and the others attacked the cottage and fled, but this person knew how to enter the Giant Wolf Mountain Range. Xue Ning was only afraid that if this white jade found an opportunity in the future, the most likely thing was that the white jade would unite with the local defenders or the great prince. So. Miasma of poisonous insects that passed through the Giant Wolf Mountains. It doesn't take much, with a thousand local defenders, attack the cottage with rockets from a distance, as long as the villagers are burned. The giant wolf cottage is no longer in danger.

Xue Ning only thought that instead of pinning his hopes on that Bai Yu would not come back to retaliate, it was better to prepare on his side first.

The wooden gate can be attacked by fire, but it is not so easy if it is made of stone.

In the minds of the people of this world, the most important thing in building a stone city is manpower and stones. Stones, the entire Giant Wolf Mountains are everywhere, and most of them are of the finest extremely strong bluestone.

But the problem is how to mine these stones, and after they are mined, they need to be polished into stones. Just mining and polishing the stone can take up a lot of manpower and consume a lot of time.

Therefore, in this era, even in the Great Yuan Empire, only some local counties would build cities with stones. Most of the places below the county are earthen walls.

Shi Yi thought about how many people it would take to dig the stone and how many people it would take to polish the stone, but he couldn't imagine that the method of building the city that Xue Ning was going to use could not be measured by the needs of ordinary people.

Originally, even if Xue Ning was the reincarnation of a cultivator, now Xue Ning has no cultivation, and if he wants to build a stone city, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. But just the day before, Xue Ning retrieved his spatial ring from the mysterious inky world.

In Xue Ning's space ring, although all the original large number of top-level good things had been consumed in the Heavenly Tribulation, among the remaining gadgets, there were two things that were enough to help Xue Ning build a huge stone city or even a dozen of them.

Xue Ning gave Shi Yi half a day to ask Shi Yi to choose people, although Shi Yi felt that this matter was very unreasonable, but Xue Ning was now the biggest master.

In the afternoon of the same day, Xue Ning found Shi Yi and handed Shi Yi two things.

"This part is fossil powder, this part is stone powder, fossil powder can soften the rock, you have people melt the fossil powder into the water, and then pour the water on the stone wall, a stick of incense can soften the rock, and then you can dig the stone down by hand.

Dingshi San can be fixed on the rock, add a layer of stone when building the city, and then apply a layer of stone powder, so much for the specifics, I hope the stone city can be built soon. There's only so much I can do.

Xue Ning didn't care about everyone's stunned, just after he finished explaining the role of these two things, fossil powder and Dingshi San, he pulled everyone to demonstrate, at the beginning, not to mention the people in the cottage, even the people around Xue Ning all thought that His Royal Highness the Third Prince was joking.

But when the workers softened the rock with fossil powder and buckled it straight from the rock wall, everyone was stunned.

"This ...... It's incredible! Shi Tie almost stared out his eyes. More people were eager to knead the softened rock.

The fossil powdered rocks are as soft as plasticine, and can be kneaded into any shape at will, and even more solid if you use force.

Xue Ning once studied that the main structure of the mountain on this side of the Giant Wolf Mountain Range is all lapis bluestone, which is extremely strong, softened by fossil powder and then compressed and compacted, and its hardness even exceeds that of reinforced concrete in later generations. The use of this stone to build a castle is almost a permanent fortification once it is completed.

When the enthusiasm for the novelty of fossil powder and stone powder slowly dissipated, the giant wolf cottage began a vigorous city building operation. The rest of the things were put aside for the time being, and a large number of people began to dig mountains and build cities.

Tear down the original walled gate, and the new walled gate is completely built of bluestone. Because of the assistance of fossil powder and stone powder, the new gate of the giant wolf cottage was built quickly, and the construction of the foundation had been completed in a few days, Shi Yi told Xue Ning that at this rate, it would take about a month to build a huge city wall more than 50 meters long and more than 10 meters high.

Such a city wall standard is almost equivalent to the capital city wall standard of the Great Yuan Empire.

This is still Xue Ning's subordinates did not participate in the construction of the city, if Xue Ning's 100 subordinates also joined, the speed of the city construction will be faster.

It's just that Xue Ning didn't agree to Shi Yi's request to call his subordinates. After Xue Ning's subordinates came out of the capital, most of them were wounded, and now many of their injuries have not healed, and this is a good time to rest the team.

In addition, Xue Ning clearly knew that when the manpower was finally exhausted, even if he returned his original cultivation in the future, if he didn't have some subordinates around him, Xue Ning would be constrained if he wanted to do something.

For the less than 100 generals left around him, Xue Ning can be said to attach great importance to it, with Xue Ning's plan, after a while, when the injuries on his generals are better, he will choose one or two sets of martial arts exercises suitable for them to pass on to them.

After all, this world is still a world dominated by martial arts, and cultivation has too high requirements for personal qualifications. Xue Ning had also secretly inspected these generals of his own, but none of them were suitable for cultivation.

Xue Ning's generals only cultivated some of the most basic methods in the army. This kind of method is superficial in Xue Ning's opinion, and the previous Royal Highness of the Third Prince is even counted, but now that it has been replaced by Xue Ning, it is naturally impossible for his subordinates to cultivate that kind of garbage.

It is said that the Giant Wolf Mountain was in the midst of a stormy city building movement after being occupied by Xue Ning and his group, and Bai Yu hid all the way east to Tibet after escaping from the Giant Wolf Cottage that day. Sleeping in the open air, life is not hard.

When he was incognito for more than ten days, Bai Yu didn't hear the document that the general wanted him, and Bai Yu, who felt that the wind was gradually loosening, finally walked onto the streets of Linjiang County.

At this time, the news that the eldest prince had ascended the throne and became the new monarch of the Northern Xue Kingdom had reached Linjiang County. At the same time, the people met and talked to each other the most about the news of the rebellion of the four princes and the second prince of the Northern Xue Kingdom.

It's not that only the eldest prince knows how to secretly cultivate the strength of his army, in fact, in order to compete for the throne, many princes secretly have their own arrangements. It's just that the eldest prince finally made a difficulty, and mastered the military power of the forbidden army in the national capital, so he mastered the leadership and ascended the throne to become the new monarch of the Northern Xue Kingdom.

The eldest prince has ascended the throne, but the other princes are naturally unable to convince themselves, the eldest emperor who ascended to the throne by killing his father. The second prince and the prince immediately fled the capital after receiving the news and returned to their mother's fiefdom. There they pulled up their own ranks.
