After a period of pain, Ling Qiong moved her legs and feet, and found that she was very flexible.

If it weren't for the eyes, it wouldn't have been seen to be a pair of straw feet wearing black clay shoes.

Li He glanced at it and instructed Ya Weidao.

"Go, fetch a bucket of water in the distance."

One of the guards ran into the distance, and after a while, he brought back a bucket of water and put it beside him.

Ling Qiong knew what Li He meant, and put his foot in, there was no change at first, but after a while, the black soil showed some signs of dilution.

So he stretched his foot back again, and the straw that made up his foot became messy, and Ling Qiong sat down in place to rest, and after touching half a stick of incense, it was back to its original state.

Ling Qiong took a fire talisman and burned this strange straw foot, but it was resisted by the black soil, and he only felt some pain slightly, and he was completely able to bear it.

The most important thing is that the power of the bad omen has stagnated, even if the feet are abnormal, it is better than the lower half of the body is full of straw, it can be said that Li He's method has completely worked.

Ling Qiong hugged her fists towards Li He, without twisting, but her words were very solemn.

"I don't thank you for my great kindness, I keep the kindness of the Lord of Li Mansion in my heart, and if I work effectively in the future, I will definitely sacrifice my life to help."

Li He didn't pretend either, so he accepted the other party's bow.

In the process of fighting against bad omen, there are dangers everywhere, and he will be involved in the slightest accident.

If it weren't for the enemy with the other party, and seeing that his temperament was good, he would not have come to the rescue.

And Li Town is weird and wreaking, and you also need to find a reliable helper in the surrounding area.

"I heard you say that the lord of the kiln village also believes in Ling, Ling Qiong, do you know the reason?"

Ling Qiong sighed, looking at the desolate kiln village, and couldn't help but feel sad.

"The master of the Kiln Village Mansion is Ling Lei, my cousin. The Ling family was originally the garrison division family of Yongcheng, but our branch was a side branch and received very little help.

A few years ago, I received an order from my family to come to Li Town to collect special materials, and my uncle's family and I stayed here, obtained some land deeds, and sat on the throne of the lord. ”

"About half a year ago, Yongcheng's family sent a message that a large number of wartime materials were stored, including iron ore resources.

Cousin Ling Lei has always been dissatisfied with the original decision, thinking that he would not have a good time when he came to this poor country. It just so happened that Gu Tie wanted to make meritorious contributions to the family in this collection of minerals, collect enough materials, and return to the Ling family in Yongcheng. ”

"The mine of Keyao Village is a natural thing, although my uncle bought the title deed and auspicious rui at a great price, but the auspicious rui is dying of old age, and it is almost close to longevity.

What's more, there are laws in mining, and even if you increase labor, the effect is limited. If you wait until the auspicious rays wither, then the spirituality of the veins will not be revealed, and it will be even more difficult. ”

Hearing this, Li He was thoughtful.

Half a year ago, this time was so sensitive, the death of his original parents, the robbery of Kuchaling, and the turmoil in Kiln Village, he had to think about it for a while.

As for the Gu Tie Xiangrui mentioned by Ling Qiong, when he confronted him, he found that the auspicious rui had disappeared, and some were just bad omens.

He continued to look at Ling Qiong, waiting for him to speak.

"So Ling Lei became more and more irritable, beating and scolding the guards at every turn, and even frantically oppressing the villagers, causing resentment among the people, and even many people couldn't bear to flee from here."

"Due to the distance between the two mountains, I didn't know about it at the time, and Ling Lei contacted me, saying that a few warlocks from Yongcheng had come to help him refine ore, and that they could increase my production of weed, and invited me to meet him."

So I came to the kiln village and met with him a warlock dressed in yellow, cultivating the methods outside the prescription, with a yellow charm on the top of his head, sitting in a sedan chair, very strange.

The other party showed his Taoist skills, and he was able to call the wind and rain, his strength was terrifying, and his words were full of bewitchment. Under its spell, the villagers of Kiln Village worked very hard, and the harvest of ancient iron was greatly improved. It is also said that it can help Ling Lei fuse the bad omen. ”

"As soon as these words came out, I felt that something was wrong, relying on the decaying Gu Tie Xiangrui to forcibly fuse the bad omen, Ling Lei's breathing method was not well cultivated, how could it be done easily.

But three days later, when I saw my cousin again, he really succeeded in fusing together, but his personality was more eccentric and his expression was indifferent.

I wanted to persuade him, but I didn't expect him to count my Dao talent and be jealous of his cultivation. So there was a big quarrel, and he left alone. ”

Li He nodded, it was not easy to fuse the bad omen, except for the strange characteristics of the catalog. He had never seen auspicious rui in a weakened period, who could balance the bad omen.

Even though he had a purple jade gourd at that time, but the breathing method failed to get started, and he couldn't fuse the bad omen at all, Ling Lei actually relied on the withered ancient iron auspicious rui to successfully fuse, which was indeed strange.

As for Ling Qiong's guilt, it might be that he found something.

Sure enough, Ling Qiong slowly became depressed.

"I should have stopped him in the first place, if he had been more resolute, he would not have become what he is now, let alone create such a killing, and the people of Kiln Village also have a way to live."

"But I hesitated, because when I saw the yellow-clothed warlock, especially when he performed the Dao method, I actually noticed a trace of the Dao Kingdom Mansion Seal, although it was very faint, and the source of the breath was uncertain, but now that I think about it, it must be this thing."

Ling Qiong looked up at Li He and continued.

"Because of the special practice of breathing and the fact that I was fortunate enough to feel the breath of the seal in my family, I realized the source of the yellow-clothed warlock.

A country has a seal, suppressing the eight famines; A government has an order, and the command is in charge.

This is the only thing that the city government has to control the luck, and the small ones call for wind and rain, move mountains and lakes; The heavy one sacrifices to heaven and walks the way, and the words follow the law.

Only such treasures can change the situation in the kiln village, I should have thought of it. ”

Looking at Ling Qiong, who was struggling slightly, Li He understood what he meant without words.

Maybe he thought about it a little bit, and he wanted to stop it forcibly, but he didn't dare to make a move. Because of the origin of this government decree, the danger hidden behind it is self-evident.

Could it be that Yongcheng wants to annex Li Zhen? The location of the kiln village is not deep, but it is not shallow either, and if this place is classified as Yongcheng, it is almost equivalent to opening a huge mouth and biting it.

Although Li Zhen is adjacent to Yongcheng, it is not a belonging, especially since Li Tianshi's mana is not bad, and he has not had a good relationship with Yongcheng.

This is also the deficiency of the Taoist system, the command of each place is relaxed, there is no actual upper and lower levels, except for the nominal control of the county, the rest of the places ignore each other, and even have disputes.

But no matter what, Yongcheng will not come up with such a plan to turn the kiln village into such a troubled place.

If they hadn't gathered here, with the outlier Li He, I am afraid that the bad omen of the kiln village would spread, and then it would affect not only a ridge, but also the surrounding land.

The so-called four-colored tricksters, the source of the Dao law they rely on is the ancient iron collected by the Bad Omen Slavery, and then subjected to special Dao sacrifices. With a steady stream of bad omen erosion, no one will be able to resist it at that time, and the surrounding area of the kiln village will no longer be inhabited, and it will become a forbidden place for bad omen.

As if aware of this, Ling Qiong also said.

"This shouldn't be the seal of Yongcheng, otherwise it wouldn't be so weak, the seal of a city, holding hundreds of thousands of square meters of land, is simply devastating to deal with us.

But it does have the characteristics of the seal, which can affect the law of heaven and earth. ”

Li He nodded, he knew that this was not the city seal, if in terms of power, even the level of Li Zhen was far inferior, and he could only remotely perceive a ridge, which was more like a miniature version of the palace seal.

If it weren't for the blessing of the Bad Omen Catalogue, he didn't even think that he could easily affect the ridge, even if others got this thing, it would be difficult to perform it like the man in yellow, it was more like a puzzle, using special means to split and use.

He paused and asked.

"Have you heard of the Decree?"

Ling Qiong shook her head suspiciously and replied.

"I haven't heard of it."

As Li He expected, he said.

"This thing is definitely not the so-called government seal, the treasure of the dignified mountains and rivers and the society, how could it be that it will be scattered here and used to bewitch the small kiln village.

However, it does have some of the characteristics of the seal you mentioned, and with my Bad Omen Dao Method, it can just be used. ”

Ling Qiong had already guessed that the paper order that had just fought against the Bad Omen was Li Hexin's method. Moreover, from this order, the breath of the seal was not detected at all, and it seemed to have become a simple treasure of bad omens, suppressing the blood straw in his body.

If it is said that the seal of the Great Dao is the treasure of luck, it guides the breath of heaven and earth, thus changing reality. The things that Li He held were even more domineering, forcibly suppressed, especially the power of bad omen, as if it was an order from the monarch and ministers, if he was not obedient, he would be directly destroyed.

Are bad omens conscious? I'm afraid not, but in the dark, there seems to be a law, and the paper order is the executor of this rule.

"Beware of this, there is a deep danger behind it."

Ling Qiong didn't say much, he guessed that this was Li He's secret, since he was able to control the treasures that were suspected to be the seal of the mansion, then what kind of Dao method did Li He himself control.

Li He nodded, there is a catalogue suppression, and there is no problem for the time being.

What's more, he feels that this thing is probably not dealing with himself, but Li Zhen, and the target will not involve him for the time being.

After some delay, the rest of the ridges have been shipped, and the ancient iron capital that can be seen in the village has been pulled away, and the mansion masters are not talking nonsense and leave directly.

With Li He here, they wouldn't have any thoughts about the Kiln Village Mine.

What's more, the matter of Lingdi is not your own, and without the approval of Li Zhen, even if you occupy it privately, it can only last for a period of time.

Maybe Kuchaling can take advantage of this time to dig a mine, but whether Li He can get the title deed is another matter.

If there is a solution to the bad omen in ordinary moments, it should be no problem to do a little more.

But at this time, Li Town, the turmoil is about to rise, not to mention the matter of Yao Village, even if all the surrounding ridges are invaded, they may not be able to support.

Being a landowner for a period of time is regarded as the king of the mountain. However, the people of the kiln village are dead, and it is also difficult to find out who will mine, and if you want to get the people of Lingcun to come, you can get some policies, which cannot be solved by force alone.

Li He eased his nerves and looked at Ling Qiong.

"The kiln village is in ruins, I am short of manpower, if there are people who are willing to come here to mine, only pay fifty percent of the tax, two percent to you, three percent to me."

Hearing this, Ling Qiong was also shocked, you must know that the general mineral land basically belongs to the mansion master, and the so-called miner is just a miscellaneous worker, selling his physical strength.

Usually there is no share, just a fixed salary. Even if there is a certain share, it will take at most one percent, that is, the old man appreciates the meal, and people are grateful.

You must know that this is ancient iron, a rare ore resource, even if there is no auspiciousness, there are still a large number of remnants, which are very valuable. Ordinary people mine, and even the money from commercial transactions.

If any villagers knew about this, they would definitely come here to pan for gold.

Ling Qiong thought for a moment and said.

"I am already enthusiastic about cultivation, and I am not very proficient in the management of the government, and the people of Demoiselle Ridge are also quite barren, barely supported by auspiciousness.

You can make more than 500 people come to the land of the kiln village, let it mine, and give 30% of the capital, you take 7 points, I don't want it. ”

Li He knew the other party's mentality and wanted to reciprocate, after all, in Ling Qiong's opinion, this was simply Li He giving him a gift, and he forcibly supported a wave of Grass Ridge.

He shook his head and said.

"If you lose Gutie Xiangrui, the kiln village will be a dead place, and no matter how much mineral reserves you have, you will be free one day. At this moment of crisis in Lizhen, I need a large number of ancient iron and population to strengthen my strength, so I don't have to be stingy.

As long as those who come here to work will have gains, and they will have motivation under the reward. ”

Hearing Li He's explanation, Ling Qiong didn't argue, after all, in his opinion, the matter of managing Lingdi was really meaningless, and Li He could do whatever he wanted.

"In that case, I let five hundred people go to Kuchaling and recruit five hundred people to come to mine, and I only take one percent. Afterwards, the 1,000 people will be included in your ridge, and only 500 people will be left in the grass ridge. ”

Li He looked at each other.

"Is there anything out of the ordinary?"

It seems that Li He has heard what he meant, no matter how miserable it is, it should not be such a large-scale migration of people.

"A hundred miles away from the grass ridge, there is a ridge, there seems to be no news some time ago, I sent someone to investigate before I came here, but I haven't returned yet, I'm afraid it's a bit similar to the situation in Kiln Village."

In fact, the location of Demoiselle Ridge is in the north of Yao Village, and the distance is very far, if Ling Qiong hadn't taken the initiative to come, I'm afraid that the disaster of Yao Village wouldn't be able to detect him for a while.

Unexpectedly, not only was it the turmoil in this place, but the mansions controlled by Li Zhen pressed the gourd to float the scoop, and there were disasters everywhere. Coupled with the current situation in Li Zhen, there is no ability to govern it at all, and I am afraid that it has been an eventful situation recently.

Especially combined with the seal of the house mentioned by Ling Qiong, if it is not the seal of Yongcheng, then who is it?

Considering that the county government is backed by snow-capped mountains and the surrounding area is sparsely populated, who wants to take Li Town?

When I think about the depths, I can't help but shudder.

Li He understood that if he wanted to cultivate the Bad Omen Catalogue, he had to seek the development of the mountains and cultivate auspiciousness, so that he could suppress the bad omen in his body and keep moving forward.

After obtaining the national decree and making up for the missing catalogue, he had an intuition that he was not far from the eight-rank Taoist priest.

Purely from the point of view of strength, like Mo Rushi, Ling Qiong and other nine-rank masters who fused auspicious rui and bad omen, plus those Taoist priests who only had auspicious rui, they might not be able to beat him in his heyday.

This kind of ability already has the demeanor of an eight-grade Taoist priest.

Of course, if you want to be really promoted, an eight-rank bad omen is indispensable, but before that, he needs to expand the auspicious rui, not necessarily like the human face tea that is contaminated with the breath of bad omen, ordinary auspicious rui can also try.

He has already ordered Zhong Min to search for and buy auspicious rui, and he may have a harvest in the near future.

Li He glanced at Ling Qiong and explained.

"Be careful in everything, if there is a change in the grass ridge, you can come to the bitter tea to find me."

Ling Qiong was optimistic and smiled.

"In this chaotic world, who can guarantee their own safety. If the situation really deteriorates, I will take everyone to Kucha to seek refuge with you, and then you will have to leave me something to eat, Lord Li! ”

Li He patted each other on the shoulder, and the two immediately burst into laughter.

Ling Qiong looked at the distant Mansion Lord, especially Mo Rushi, and reminded.

"Be careful with him, I vaguely mentioned this to him before to facilitate this gathering, he may have guessed something."

Li He replied.

"If you don't come to mess with me, it's fine, the last one who dared to provoke Kuchaling, I'm afraid that at this moment, I have already thrown himself into the net and turned into a human skin!"
