The two flew outside the royal city, walked all the way from the city gate, and walked in front of the blue giant, they were like dwarfs from Lilliputia.

Those blue giants saw that the two of them did not look and dress like spirit humans, and they all looked at them curiously and pointed at them.

Several children followed them giggling, and Qi Feiyang saw that although they looked only four or five years old, they were almost up to his shoulders.

Qi Feiyang took out a packet of pork jerky from the storage ring and handed it to a slightly older boy, the boy looked at the things in Qi Feiyang's hand, but he didn't dare to step forward to get it, the fire phoenix said a few words to him in the local language, and the boy took the pork jerky.

He tore open the package, took out the pork jerky and gave it to each of his friends, and then picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

When Qi Feiyang saw it, he couldn't help but nod approvingly, these children know how to be humble at such a young age, it seems that the folk customs here are indeed relatively simple.

At this time, a young woman walked out of a nearby shop, saw a few children eating, asked a few words, and knew that Qi Feiyang gave them to them, so she warmly invited them to sit in the store.

It looks like an ironware shop, and there are a lot of farm tools and household tools such as kitchen knives, shovels, hammers, etc.

The woman invited them to sit down at a table, and poured them two glasses of yellow-green juice, which the fire phoenix told him was a drink that the blue giant liked to drink, and that it was made by mixing the juice of a wild fruit with the leaves of a plant, and adding some other spices, similar to the tea that the earth drinks. Because the production is not high, they are usually reluctant to drink, mainly to entertain guests.

Qi Feiyang took a sip, feeling sweet and sweet, and there was an indescribable taste, which also contained a trace of aura, and after drinking it in his stomach, he felt warm all over.

Qi Feiyang asked her some questions about daily life, and the fire phoenix helped him translate, and the other party said a lot of things, and the fire phoenix said: "She said that their family used to plough the fields in the countryside, and her husband's family passed on the craftsmanship of forging tools, and when the farm was slack, they built some farm tools or tools commonly used at home to sell in the city, and then the business got better and better, so they simply moved to the city and opened this shop, and the living standard is better than in the countryside." ”

Qi Feiyang asked, "How is your leader, King Betsy?" Are your taxes heavy? ”

"King Betsy is the most prestigious elder of the Bei tribe, he is very good to the clansmen, and there are not too many rules, as long as the clansmen work hard and live in harmony, the leader will not interfere. We only need to pay a little tax every year, and it will not affect our lives. ”

Qi Feiyang listened to it and remembered that several generations of emperors in the early Han Dynasty all admired the rule of inaction, and in the early Han Dynasty, the country was peaceful and the people were safe, and the national strength was strong, creating a powerful empire during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It's a pity that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty later did not sympathize with the people and was reckless, and the empire slowly declined.

Of course, at that time, the Xiongnu outside the empire were a great threat, and if the Xiongnu were not defeated with the strength of the whole country, national security could not be guaranteed, and it would be impossible to maintain economic prosperity, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was also helpless.

And since the spirit world was brought to this galaxy by the Qingxu Daojun, the entire western realm has the management of the four major spirit beasts, their strength far exceeds the humans and demon beasts here, and the various races abide by the rules and basically have no conflict, so it is most appropriate for the human race to adopt the rule of inaction.

After chatting for a while, Qi Feiyang said goodbye, and went straight to the palace with the fire phoenix, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, a guard standing guard at the door came forward, saluted the fire phoenix, and said, "Welcome to the Phoenix King!" ”

It turned out that this guard had accompanied King Betsy to Phoenix Mountain to meet the Fire Phoenix, the Fire Phoenix was the supreme ruler of the entire Western Continent, and the leaders of all ethnic groups had to go to the Central District to meet it regularly, and the Fire Phoenix naturally had to change into a human form in order to facilitate communication with the human race, so this guard recognized it.

The Fire Phoenix asked, "Is King Betsy in the palace?" I want to see him! ”

"The king is discussing in the palace, the Phoenix King, please come with me."

The guard led Qi Feiyang and the Fire Phoenix into the palace, Qi Feiyang saw that the scale of this palace was larger than that of the Jing clan, but it was only a large hall and a harem, which was naturally incomparable with the magnificent palace on the earth, and it was not on the same level at all.

When they reached the steps of the main hall, the guards shouted, "The Phoenix King has arrived!" ”

There were also two guards at the entrance of the main hall, and after hearing the shout, one of the guards immediately ran into the main hall to report.

After a while, I saw five people coming out of the main hall, and one of them, an old man in his 60s, bowed to the fire phoenix and said, "I don't know that the Phoenix King has arrived, and I have missed the distance, please forgive me!" ”

The four men who followed him also saluted, bowing on both sides and inviting them into the temple.

The fire phoenix smiled: "I also came casually to disturb King Betsy!" ”

After speaking, he turned sideways and invited Qi Feiyang into the main hall, and followed him in.

King Betsy and the others were full of doubts when they saw that the supreme ruler of the Western Realm Continent was so respectful to that young man, and they didn't dare to ask questions.

Qi Feiyang walked straight to the chair in the middle and sat down, the fire phoenix sat next to him, and said: "This Mr. Qi is the apprentice of the old master, and now he is the new master of the spirit world. ”

When King Betsy heard this, he hurriedly bowed to Qi Feiyang and said, "We didn't know that there was a new master in the spirit world, please forgive me for the rudeness!" ”

Qi Feiyang looked at King Beiqi and a few people, and saw that King Beiqi was all at the peak of the foundation building period, and said, "You don't need to be polite, just sit down and talk." ”

After everyone sat down, Qi Feiyang said: "The Phoenix King and I are patrolling the Western Continent, just walking around, wanting to learn about the customs of the Western Realm, so I didn't notify the various ethnic groups in advance, I just took a look in the royal city, the people are living and working in peace and contentment, and King Beiqi is managing it very well!" ”

King Betsy introduced him to the four people, all of whom were leaders of several nearby tribes, and they had come to report to King Betsy about the tribe's crop harvest and the mining of spirit stones.

At this time, several palace maids came in with some spirit fruits, put them on the table, and poured two cups of juice and leaves for Qi Feiyang and Fire Phoenix.

Qi Feiyang took a sip of his drink and asked, "How many spirit veins are there in your clan's territory?" How much can be mined per year? ”

King Betsy said: "Our territory has 161 top-grade spiritual veins, 1229 high-grade spiritual veins, and tens of thousands of medium-grade and lower spiritual veins, according to the rules set by the Phoenix King, the whole clan can mine 2 million medium-grade spirit stones every year, if the high-grade spirit stones are mined, they will be converted by 1:10, and the top-grade spirit stones will be converted by 1:100." ”

"That's good, although the spirit world is huge, the resources are not endless, we can't use them up all at once, we have to leave some for future generations."

Fire Phoenix said: "We also have restrictions on the Terran cultivators in the Western Realm Continent, only a few people with better talents are allowed to cultivate, and there are probably less than 5 cultivators out of 100 people. ”

Qi Feiyang glanced at the fire phoenix with appreciation, but he didn't expect that these spirit beasts also knew how to tilt their limited resources towards the excellent, this is completely in line with the laws of nature, and many animals on the earth also do this, only in this way can we ensure that the best genes of the group can be passed on, and the weak ones will be eliminated naturally, it seems that the nature of animals is the same.

Qi Feiyang learned about the living situation of the blue giant and the relationship with the demon beast clan in the territory, and King Betsy said: "The old master once said that all creatures are equal, so we treat the clan and the demon beast the same, everyone is very well-behaved, and the clan often communicates with each other and lives in harmony. ”

After a while, a maid of the palace came in and reported that the banquet was ready, and invited them to the apse for dinner.

When the group arrived at the apse, a middle-aged woman wearing beaded flowers with two palace maids was already standing at the door to greet them, and when she saw them coming, she hurriedly saluted and said: "Bei Weier, the queen of the Bei tribe, meets the master and the Phoenix King, please inside!" ”

After everyone sat down, the queen did not sit down, but served tea and poured wine with the palace maid, the fire phoenix was a little surprised when she saw Qi Feiyang, and said with a smile: "This is the rule of the human race in the spirit world, there are guests at home, women must wait on the side, they can't eat at the table, and the royal family is no exception." ”

Qi Feiyang nodded, thinking that this was similar to ancient China, but even the queen had to serve guests, which was relatively rare.

I saw that the banquet was relatively simple, that is, roasted fish, fried crab, barbecue meat and a few kinds of green vegetables, the taste was relatively light, but when the palace maid brought a large bowl of rice, Qi Feiyang was surprised to find that this rice grain was several times larger than the rice on the earth, and after eating it, he felt a strong fragrance, and he could also feel a wave of energy emanating from it.

King Betsy said: "This is the staple food of our Bei people, called Ling rice, which only produces one season a year, but the yield is quite high, and each piece of land can produce tens of thousands of catties." ”

Qi Feiyang asked, "Can this kind of spiritual rice be cultivated in the spirit realm?" I don't know if the earth can be planted. ”

"Lingmi is best only grown on the West Coast, and the Lingmi grown in other places is not only much smaller, but also not so fragrant, and contains very little spiritual energy."

"Oh, that's a little weird, but you might as well give me some seeds, and I'll bring them back to Earth to try."
