Chapter 10: Tap Your Dog's Head
Xue'er picked up a piece of sweet potato and asked, "How to eat this thing, can you bite it directly?" ”
Draxel demonstrated, peeled off the sweet potato skin on the outside, revealing the tender yellow sweet potato flesh inside, and took a bite of it beautifully, this taste, as well as the sweet taste, is absolutely rare in the world, those baked sweet potatoes in the previous life, and this is completely incomparable.
"Look, that's it, peel off the skin, and the yellow flesh inside is all edible, so taste it. It's so delicious!! ”
Xue'er couldn't wait to peel off the skin, looked at the steaming flesh inside, took a small bite, and immediately looked happy.
"Wow, this taste, soft and glutinous, tender and smooth in the mouth, sweet in taste, fragrant on the teeth and cheeks! It's so delicious! It's worthy of being eaten by immortals, it's delicious. "Cher can't praise it enough.
Nayan's mother took a bite and was instantly conquered by the delicious baked sweet potato! At this time, Fu Bo also walked in, as if he had something to report, and when he smelled this strange fragrance, he was also shocked.
"Madam, young master, eldest lady, good morning."
"Yo, Fuber is here, it just so happens that I made some delicious food, and Fuber will try it too." Fauber was not polite, took the sweet potato from Draxle's hand, took a big bite, and showed an extremely satisfied expression on his old face.
Fauber tasted it and exclaimed, "This ...... There is a lot of spiritual energy in it, this is the highest spiritual food! ”
Spiritual food refers to those grains that contain spiritual energy, high-grade spiritual food, which are special offerings for the royal family, which are very expensive, and even the royal family cannot enjoy them every day.
Spirit food is not only delicious and eaten for a long time, but also improves physical fitness, helps martial artists break through the realm, has great benefits for martial artists, and is a very high-grade ingredient.
"Young master, the spiritual energy contained in this spiritual food is very sufficient, and the taste is also very delicious, it must be a very high-grade spiritual food, the old slave has lived for decades and has never eaten it, thank you for the reward of the young master." Fauber bent down to thank him.
Draxel was also very happy, he didn't expect that the low-grade crops that Ruomu casually made would be high-grade spiritual food when they were brought to this world, and if they were to be sold, they would definitely be rich in the world.
"Fu Bo, this time my mother and I went out to seek medical treatment, and we had an adventure on the way, these new varieties of spiritual food, but the good things cultivated by the ancient immortals, are very precious."
Fu Bo was taken aback and said, "What, the things of the ancient immortals, how can the old slave enjoy them." As he spoke, he put down the roasted sweet potatoes.
Draxle hurriedly stopped: "Fauber, you are going to see the outside, you have watched me grow up since I was a child, my father has never treated you as a subordinate, you are an old man in the palace, if you give something to see outside, you really don't treat us as a family." ”
When Draxel said this, Fauber no longer refused. Mother Na Yan smiled: "Uncle Fu, what Draxel said is that I have never treated you as a person, sit down together, good things, of course, you have to share." ”
As the group sat down to enjoy the roasted sweet potatoes, Draxle continued, "Mother, what do you think of this food? ”
"The things of the immortals, of course, are excellent, the aura contained in them is very gentle, it is absorbed and refined quickly, if it can be eaten for a long time, it can break through the realm without cultivation."
"Mother, I'm going to use this thing as food for the Hidden Dragon Army."
The three people present were shocked at the same time, and Na Yan's mother was even more exaggerated: "What! Such a precious spiritual food should be used as military food! Drasel, even if my family still has some belongings, I can't afford to consume it like this. In Na Yan's mother's concept, the cultivation cost of this level of spiritual food must be very exaggerated.
Xue'er: "Yes, according to the level of aura content of these spiritual foods, this one is estimated to cost thousands of gold coins, and if it is used as military food, our entire palace will not be able to afford to eat for a few months." ”
Draxel said with a smile: "Sister Xue, don't worry, this thing is in the hands of the immortals, it is just the lowest ration, the adventure I obtained, there are many ways to cultivate food, if you cultivate it according to the above method, this kind of spiritual food will be planted in a large area, although it will be affected by factors such as aura, environment, soil, etc., the content of spiritual energy will be reduced, but it will definitely not be much worse than high-grade spiritual food." And it doesn't cost much, and the output is considerable. ”
Mother Na Yan: "So, Drassel know the cultivation method of this kind of spiritual food, how difficult is the cultivation of these spiritual foods, how much does it cost, and what are the gains?" ”
"Mother, this spiritual food is called sweet potato, and the fruit can be eaten as long as it is simply smoked and roasted, which is not only delicious, but also easy to carry, and can also quickly restore the physical strength of the sergeant. The plant is cold-tolerant, drought-resistant, does not need spiritual water, only ordinary water source irrigation can be, where can be planted, there is no requirement for the soil, and the yield is very huge, one acre of land, can be produced at least 8000 catties, and the growth period of sweet potatoes is not more than two months. Converted, the cost of a sweet potato is a maximum of a few copper coins! ”
"What!"
"What!"
"What!"
Na Yan's mother, Fu Bo, and Xue'er were shocked at the same time, and their hearts were simply turned upside down, if the sweet potato is really so magical, why is the Mu family not strong, and use this kind of spiritual food to cultivate soldiers, I believe that it will not be long before the Della family will be able to have hundreds of thousands, invincible divisions.
After Nayan's mother hesitated, she said, "Draxel, what did you say...... Can...... Seriously! ”
Draxel nodded firmly.
"Good, good...... Great, God bless my family. However, the secret of this sweet potato must not be leaked out, fortunately, we are not in the imperial capital now, and in this Nanshan County, there is no force that can pose a threat to my herdsman's family. Here, the best place for us to develop...... We need to be prepared...... Prepare well!! ”
Na Yan's mother thought about it for a while, and said to Fu Bo: "Uncle Fu, you go and mobilize all our government soldiers and Qianlong army, select the most trustworthy people, re-select the military camp, preferably away from the populated places, and then lead the soldiers to open up the farmland, the more the better, and establish a closed military base, this matter cannot be delayed!" Uncle Fu, you will personally supervise it. ”
At this time, Fu Bo also knew the importance of the matter, this would be the beginning of the rise of the herdsman, and immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "Old slave, you will complete the task!" ”
Drassell: "That's right, Fauber, we now have 90,000 Qianlong Army, nearly 10,000 government soldiers, when we left the imperial capital, we purchased a large number of reserve military rations, I want to take out some of them now for disaster relief, and then wait for the first batch of sweet potatoes to mature, directly fill the armament grain depot, you see how it goes." ”
"Hahaha, the young master laughed, I believe that after having sweet potatoes, the sergeants don't look down on that kind of coarse grain, if the young master wants to provide disaster relief, take it, the old slave also wants to ask for instructions, take out a part of the military food for disaster relief, since the young master has this idea, everything the young master can decide."
"Okay, then prepare 50,000 catties of food first, prepare the sergeant tomorrow, and my grandfather and I will send people to escort them to the disaster area, and carry out disaster relief first, this matter cannot be delayed."
"Yes, the old slave will go and prepare."
The next day, Drassel's grandfather, Xiao Yuantu, brought his son, that is, Draxel's uncle, Xiao Jun, to the palace together, and it was baked sweet potatoes that entertained them.
On the dinner table, Yan Yuantu looked at the roasted sweet potato curiously and said, "What is this?" It should be a high-grade spiritual food, this taste is really good, and the aura content is extremely high, you really have a heart. ”
Na Yan's mother was not polite, took out a big bag of sweet potatoes, and said: "Father, this is a good thing that we just collected recently, called sweet potato, it is a high-grade spiritual food, very delicious, you can bring some back later, let your mother taste it too." ”
"Little sister, this is too much, this thing is not cheap, will it not be good to take back so much."
"Big brother, this is just a little bit of my heart, I have been in Nanshan City for so long, and I haven't seen my mother yet, you can help me bring it back and give it to my mother to taste, and I can also make my mother feel at ease." There have been a lot of things going on in the palace recently, and Na Yan's mother didn't have time to go back to the City Lord's Mansion to have a look.
Na Yan Jun has been doting on his sister since he was a child, and when he saw that Na Yan's mother insisted, he didn't refuse: "Okay, I'll bring it back for you and let my mother taste it, and my mother will be very happy." ”
Yan Yuantu waved his hand and said: "Okay, let's talk about these family matters later, we are here to talk about business today, Drasel, you are already the prince, and you are the lord of Nanshan County, even if you are still young, you should learn to deal with important military and political matters, what are your plans for this disaster relief." ”
"Grandpa, I have ordered someone to take out 50,000 catties of coarse grain for disaster relief, and it will be transported to the disaster area today, and the most severely affected areas will be relieved first. Many doctors and sergeants were also arranged to build porridge sheds in the disaster area and temporarily stationed them to diagnose and treat the patients and distribute food to stabilize the disaster situation as soon as possible. With that, Draxle took out a disaster relief plan that was rushed out overnight and analyzed it for Xiao Yuantu.
In Drassell's previous life, he had watched a lot of movies and television on disaster relief, some precautions could be considered carefully, the measures were appropriate, and the disaster relief plan was very perfect, which impressed Xiao Yuantu.
Na Yan Yuantu took the plan, nodded, and said, "There is no problem with this plan, but the implementer, who are you going to let go." ”
"Grandpa, this disaster relief, I am ready to go in person, Zhenshan Wangfu has just arrived in Nanshan County, I don't know enough about the customs and people in this place, and the civilian people are still in awe of my Zhenshan Wangfu, if we really want to take root here, the majesty of Zhenshan Wangfu is not enough, and it is the best policy to give grace and might, this disaster relief is a good opportunity to establish the virtue of Zhenshan Wangfu to ordinary civilians, so I, the prince, am ready to go out in person."
That Yan Yuantu looked at his grandson, and he was more and more satisfied, not only did he not panic, but he also handled things safely, not at all like the rumors in the imperial capital, reckless and domineering.
"Okay, since Draxel is going to go out in person, then my grandfather can't say anything, the old man, as the lord of Nanshan City, can't shake off in the face of the disaster, and he also mobilized 30,000 catties of coarse grain, and 1,000 elite city guards, let your uncle lead him and go to the disaster relief with you. Moreover, your uncle is also familiar with the surroundings of Nanshan City, and having him lead the way will also facilitate your disaster relief. ”
"Then thank you, uncle."
"Drasel, see the outside, it's all one family, so I won't talk about two families." It seems that his uncle, is also a straightforward character.
At this moment, a handsome soldier wearing a white robe and silver armor walked outside, and after entering the hall, he knelt down on one knee and said: "Back to the young marshal, the food and a thousand soldiers have been prepared, and they are ready to set off at any time." ”
Drasel: "Brother Luo Cheng, hurry up, come and see my grandfather, that is, the Lord of Xiao City." ”
Luo Cheng knelt down on one knee again and said, "Luo Cheng, I've seen City Lord Xiao." ”
"I have long heard of the prestige of Luo Cheng, a major general of the Qianlong Army, but now that I have seen a real person, it is worthy of his reputation, and he is really a young talent with extraordinary strength."
Luo Cheng, is an orphan, when he was about to starve to death when he was a teenager, he was rescued by Drassell's father, and then brought into the army to cultivate, he showed extraordinary talent since he was a child, and made many military exploits, now less than thirty, his strength has reached the peak of the human martial arts realm, comparable to the strong man of the earth martial arts realm, and he is very famous in the Qianlong Army, and now he is the commander of the Zhenshan Wangfu Army, in charge of all the soldiers in the Zhenshan Wangfu, and he is also the personal guard of the Draxel, the major general of the Qianlong Army!
The biggest reliance of the Drashi family is the signature army of the Dra family, the Qianlong Army, most of the soldiers of the Qianlong Army are Zhenshan Wangfu, and the talented warriors selected from the poor are the elite cultivated by the Mu family, and they are loyal to the Mu family, and they are the most powerful force of the Mu family.
At the peak of the Qianlong Army, there were millions of soldiers, well-equipped, and countless masters, and they were the most elite soldiers in the empire, but in the final battle, not only did Drasseur's father fall, but more than 500,000 hidden dragon soldiers were also slaughtered by the enemy, and now there are more than 400,000 hidden dragon soldiers left, some of whom were also scattered by the royal family and distributed to various armies. At present, there are still the troops deployed by the Mu family, a large part of them are guarding the border at the border pass, and only a small number of people remain under the command of the Mu family, with a number of 90,000, plus the government soldiers of the palace itself, a total of about 100,000 troops.
However, the Qianlong Army is the ace military division of the Celestial Empire, and its equipment and strength are not a little higher than that of ordinary armies, just these 100,000 people, it is also a terrifying combat force comparable to an army of three or four hundred thousand, in this small Nanshan County, it is definitely an existence that can go sideways.
Draxel threw Luo Cheng a piece of baked sweet potato and said, "Brother Luo, this is a good thing, try it." ”
Luo Cheng is not polite, pick it up and eat it, after all, the relationship with Drassell is not ordinary, Luo Cheng is not only Drassell's personal guard, but also his sparring partner, Drassell grew up since he was a child, but he was beaten by Luo Cheng.
"Okay, Brother Luo, uncle, let's go now, the disaster is urgent, the sooner we get to the disaster area, we can save one more person."
Yan Yuantu also patted his son's shoulder and said, "Jun'er, take good care of your nephew on the road." If Draxel is missing a hair, you are the only one who asks. ”
"Got it, father, with me here, you can rest assured. Then we're off to go. ”
With that, the three of them set off together, mounted their horses, and marched out of the city with food.
Na Yan Yuantu looked at Drassell's back, touched his beard, and said: "You have a good son, the tiger father has no dog son, it seems that there is a successor to the Delasil Palace." Nayan's mother just smiled, the current Draxle has indeed grown up, maybe this disaster is still a good thing for Draxle.
………………
On the official road, a large number of sergeants escorted a large amount of food and marched forward, led by the three Draxel.
Draxel beckoned Xiao Jun and said, "Uncle, where is the worst disaster now, and how long will it take us to arrive?" ”
"The most serious disaster should be the deciduous village, located in the north of Nanshan City, where the water source is scarce, and far away from the mountains and forests, all livelihoods depend on the grain harvest, but this year there is little rain, the grain harvest is low, as early as a few months ago, there was a disaster, my father has sent someone to send a coarse grain, but it is also a drop in the bucket. At our pace, we will march rapidly, and we will be able to reach the village of Fallen Leaves tomorrow afternoon. ”
Draxel thought for a moment and said, "Uncle, your subordinates, do you know the path to Fallen Leaf Village. ”
"Of course there is, my subordinates are very familiar with the surroundings of Nanshan City, and almost everyone knows it."
Draxel waved his hand and called Luo Cheng: "Brother Luo, you call a few brothers who are agile, take my uncle's men, Qiao Zhuang, and rush to Fallen Leaf Village before us to collect all the information about the disaster." ”
Na Yan Jun was puzzled: "Drasel, is this necessary, we are here to provide disaster relief, not to fight." ”
"Uncle, be careful in everything, disaster relief is a technical job, not easier than fighting, at any time, whoever gets more and more accurate information can occupy a dominant position, the lion fights the rabbit and is still full of strength, and we are no exception."
At this time, Luo Cheng had already recruited dozens of sergeants with quick hands and feet, and then with an order, these people galloped quickly, broke away from the team in an instant, and headed towards a small road.
Seeing their figures disappear, Drasel shouted: "Hard work brothers, we are now going to save people, hurry up, we can die one less, speed up the march, and strive to rush to the Fallen Leaves Village tomorrow morning, and when the disaster relief is successfully completed, this king will be rewarded." ”
"Yes!" After an earth-shattering roar, the soldiers once again accelerated their march.
The sun was scorching, and the weather in the south was already so hot, after half a day's rapid march, Draxle and the others had already walked nearly a third of the way.
At noon, Draxle and the others came to the entrance of a canyon, and the surrounding area was silent, and not many people chose to pass through it.
Draxel glanced at the terrain ahead and said, "There seems to be a canyon ahead, with cliffs and forests on both sides, which is a good place for ambushes. Uncle, what is this place? ”
"Ahead is the Black Wind Canyon, which is the only way for us to go to Fallen Leaf Village, after here, there is a plain in front of us, which is conducive to hurrying, and our speed can be a little faster."
"Uncle, where was our grain robbed last time?"
"Right here, is Draxel worried that someone else will come to snatch the food this time? Don't worry, because of what happened last time, my Nanshan City has sent city guards to encircle and suppress the Hungry Wolf Village, although they ran away in the end, but they also suppressed their arrogance, and camped near the cottage to prevent them from continuing to come out to harm people, and some of the surrounding bandit groups, except for the Hungry Wolf Village, are all small cottages, and they dare not go against our Nanshan City City Lord's Mansion, Drassell can rest assured. Xiao Jun is full of confidence in this escort mission.
Drasel is a cautious man, there is a dangerous place ahead, if he passes like this, if someone is ambushed, it will be irresponsible to the soldiers of the army.
"Even so, we have to be careful." Draxel waved his hand, shouted to stop the group, and said, "Send the order to go down, rest in place, and start making a fire to cook." ”
Although Xiao Jun felt that Drashel was too cautious, he didn't stop it, after all, a group of people had been on the road for most of the day and needed to rest.
The crowd found a vacant lot next to it and rested in place. At this time, Drassel beckoned into the distance, and Xiaobai wagged his tail and stuck out his tongue, and ran over with his farts in a hurry.
"Wang ...... Wang"
On this trip, Draxel also brought Xiaobai out, after all, Xiaobai's strength is very good, and he can act as a guard, and by the way, let him be familiar with the otherworldly environment.
Luo Cheng: "Young marshal, what kind of beast is this?" The strength is very strong, it looks a bit like a wolf, but it looks kinder than a wolf, and it is really rare to see a strange beast that is so close to humans. "The vast majority of alien beasts have a natural hostility towards humans, even those alien beasts that have been domesticated are the result of training since childhood, and most of the ordinary adult alien beasts do not like humans.
"Brother Luo, Xiaobai is a dog, a very rare beast, and wolves are close relatives, but they are very friendly to humans, and Xiaobai is very useful and is our good partner." Draxel hugged Xiaobai for a while, then said a few words in Xiaobai's ear and pointed to the opposite peak.
Xiaobai was very smart and understood it at once, and then threw off Draxle and ran towards the mountains and forests in the distance.
Xiao Jun: "Draxel, your strange beast seems to have escaped, don't we have to chase it?" ”
"I'll ask Xiaobai to do something for me, and it will come back by itself later."
"In this way, this alien beast can understand human speech, could it be a fourth-order alien beast! That's a big deal. "In this world, alien beasts are also divided into levels, the first-order alien beast is the weakest, similar to the human acquired martial artist, just because the natural body is strong, the strength is a little more powerful than the human being, the second-order alien beast is comparable to the innate martial artist, the third-order alien beast is the human martial realm cultivation, at this time, the alien beast already has spiritual power in the body, the intelligence has also been improved, and it has territorial awareness, but it is still a little far from understanding human speech. The fourth-order alien beasts are comparable to the powerhouses of the Earth Martial Realm, and their wisdom is comparable to that of humans, and a few aliens are more able to speak people.
The fifth-order alien beast is stronger than the powerhouse of the Tianwu Realm, and can dominate all beasts and become the overlord of the jungle, while the legendary sixth-order alien beast, also known as the demon beast, has been able to transform into a human being, and it is already an existence of the same level as the immortals.
Draxel waved his hand and said, "It's almost, in terms of strength, Xiaobai is only at the level of the early stage of the 4th order, but it is very smart and can understand many things." ”
"Drasel, what are you asking Xiaobai to do, is it to scout the terrain?"
"When Xiaobai comes back, you'll know."
Not long after, Xiao Bai Fei ran back, then sat next to Draxel, barked at Draxel a few times, and then nodded the dog's head.
