Chapter 40: The Ancient Edict
Zhang was still born in the more than 20 forces sailing on the savage sea, trapped on a slave ship, eating coarse bread as hard as a stone like a slave, and drinking Chen Feng clear water with a faint strange smell.
Even if I have never been very particular about eating and drinking, and after so much hardship, I can't help but feel a little dull in my mouth.
Therefore, after cultivating and preaching the Fa, he leaned over and drank a few sips of cool spring water, feeling hungry, so he strode into the dense forest with the ape on his shoulder.
After that, he instructed the sensible monkey to pick a lot of juicy and fatty fresh fruits and eat them, Zhang Huansheng satisfied his appetite, but because of the many days of turbulence at sea, he couldn't help yawning, and felt tired, so he found a big tree to lean on, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.
There was no sun and moon in the dense forest, and he didn't know how long he slept soundly, and finally woke up.
Lazily opened his eyes, and saw that there were piles of fresh wild fruits around him, and Hanuman was guarding his side with bright eyes, looking at himself, Zhang Huansheng couldn't help but smile and touched a bright red thin-skinned berry, wiped it on his body, stuffed it into his mouth, and asked while chewing, "Monkey."
How long have I been asleep?
How did you pick such a large pile of fruit and still have your eyes shining? ”
Hanuman listened and clenched his little fist, imitating the movement of the sun and moon in the sky, and swiped nine times in succession, 'squeak...' and screamed.
Zhang Huansheng saw it, his eyes widened in surprise, and he asked again: "You mean nine days and nine nights, I slept for nine days and nine nights?" ”
Hanuman replied that the monkey's head was straight, and his two palms stretched out nine fingers, dancing on the top of his head.
"I actually rested for nine days and nine nights, which has never happened in Dongzhou," Seeing it make affirmative movements, Zhang Huansheng couldn't help frowning and muttering: "Why did the body become so tired as soon as I arrived on this island..."
After muttering for a while, thinking of the various changes that had taken place in his physical body and spirit after stepping on the island, he was relieved again, and carried Hanuman on his shoulders, while performing the art of resisting the wind, rolling the fruit on the ground in the air and carrying it, and walked towards the outside of the forest;
While silently thinking: "Those who are recorded in the ancient books who begged for a life in the deep mountains and old forests, inadvertently picked and took the magic medicines such as the thousand-year-old blue sky, the thousand-year-old red fruit, and became the land immortals in one step, all of them slept for more than ten or decades, isn't it just to make the gods and bodies that have suddenly grown thousands of times stronger fit with each other again."
After I came to this world occupied by the Yuan Shen, my body and soul have also changed a lot, and it is normal to sleep for a few days and reconnect..."
Thinking about it, he walked out of the dense forest, jumped over the stream, and unconsciously walked to the foot of the Buddha Mountain, and was surprised to see that under the stone tablet of King Naxu, hundreds of simple wooden and stone houses built by using the green trees in the mountains and the ruins of the giant Buddha have been built.
Patches of burned fields in the distance have also been planted with grain, because of the pleasant climate on the island, abundant rain, and burnt wood ash as waste, many of the fields have grown lush green seedlings.
Farther afield, hundreds of sturdy men, slender women, and even young children were busy cultivating fields and burning wasteland.
The island, which had been deserted for many years, showed a sense of people.
Although he vaguely guessed in his heart that these 3,000 freed slaves didn't want to be trapped on an isolated island, so they could only take the island as their home, settle down, and plan a way to survive, but Zhang Huansheng still never expected that he was just sleeping, and a small town with thousands of acres of farmland appeared in front of him.
"This is really, this is really going to live permanently and settle down!" After being stunned for a long time, he came back to his senses with a muttering to himself, looked left and right, and wanted to find Na Sen's mystery to answer the question in his heart, but saw that the old man was already walking towards him with a wooden cane.
"The gentleman will be fine these days." Coming to Zhang Huansheng, Sen Xuanji bowed deeply, gave a salute, and greeted with a smile on his face.
"I was a gentleman before, and now I am a gentleman, Mr. Sen, what you call me is really changeable." Zhang Huansheng said casually when he heard this: "The scenery on this island is pleasant, I walked around, and I passed the time in the past few days, no, I also brought you some fresh fruits."
But looking at the current situation, it is redundant. Disperse the water of the wind, and let the pile of fruit wrapped in the air by the hurricane behind him crackle and roll to the ground.
"It's not redundant, it's not redundant," Sen Xuanji said in a loud voice, "This fresh fruit can cure scuring scurvy of boating on the sea, and it is used to save people." ”
"Yes, then I'll let the monkey pick up some more for you later." Zhang Huansheng smiled when he heard this: "But old man, you are really capable, but in a few days, you have built a town at the foot of this Foshan Mountain, and you have also cultivated so many acres of land." ”
"The gentleman has won the award, but he is just trying to survive in death, and everyone has done their best." Sen Xuanji shook his head with a wry smile and said: "There are a lot of bricks and stones available in the collapsed Great Buddha Temple, and the surrounding trees are also good materials.
As for the reclamation of the fields, the stranded merchant ships had existing furnaces for iron tools and repairing blades, and there happened to be skilled blacksmiths among the slaves, so it was not difficult to recast agricultural tools.
The grain brought in the ship's holds, except for the hard flour cakes, was all husked grain for fear of spoilage, and the boatmen ate it freshly milled and freshly cooked, and the land on the island was fertile, and the climate was good, and the seeds could emerge when they were planted on the ground.
In fact, as long as all this is done step by step and in an orderly manner, it is really simple. ”
After listening to Sen Xuanji's words, he said 'simple' twice in a row, and Zhang Huansheng praised him: "My husband is really humble, how can ordinary people hope for such a way of overall planning and planning."
Not to mention, the people you summoned and mobilized were still a group of wounded and sick slaves who had just regained their freedom.
In retrospect, when you were obviously the leader of the cabin on the ship, you gave yourself the least amount of food, and ordered people to do the dirty work of cleaning up the feces and urine. ”
"What the gentleman says is all small skills, and he can't get into the eyes of others." Hearing this, Sen Xuanji's face suddenly turned pale, he dropped the wooden staff in his hand, bowed deeply to Zhang Huansheng again, clasped his hands into fists and saluted: "The reason why my generation can survive with this isolated island is definitely not by my small skills of controlling people and planning.
Instead, he relied on the gentleman's supernatural power to kill the villains and expel the chaotic miasma.
The supreme of antiquity, the two emperors of Yan and Huang, once made an edict that will not be replaced for all generations, saying:
The descendants of later generations, regardless of the noble and lowly, can establish herdsmen who can open up territory in the wilderness and expand their territory and have converts.
We hereby implore the gentleman to establish the establishment of the Yi system, the Jin Dynasty, and the honorable position of the doctor. ”
