Chapter 8: Waiting
"Unless I can train a team of 30,000 mortal warriors within ten years, all wearing Xuantie armor, holding Xuantie weapons, and a large number of strong bows and crossbows, and I have to cooperate with the mountain protection array, as well as no less than 100 Jindan Realm immortal cultivators, and a large number of spirit stone reserves, I can rely on the city wall to defend it, otherwise, it will be a mirror and a moon, and there will be a joy in the sky."
Thinking so, Jiang Mu took out a blank jade talisman for recording, and first recorded the changes in the mountain terrain around Fuyun Mountain one by one.
Then he looked at it carefully, kept scrutinizing, and thanks to his wandering in his previous life, he had a wide range of knowledge, and he knew very well the way for mortals to build a city, otherwise he would not have scratched his head if he wanted to build a city today.
Immortal cultivators are not good at this.
It's just that after he used the five partial peaks as the base point and outlined a defensive circle, he always felt that something was missing.
In this way, can it really be kept?
He built a ring of city walls, trained 30,000 mortal warriors, stored enough grain, grass and spirit stones, and summoned all his apprentices back, this kind of defensive power was really comparable to the Ten Thousand Poison Sect?
Jiang Mu remembered that in his previous life, the top sect in the five counties of Xishu, the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, in order to protect himself, released a poisonous mist covering a radius of five hundred miles, which not only isolated the crazy immortal cultivators, but also isolated mortals, but in the end, it was broken by the Great Qin Demon Hunting Division and the five super sects fifty years later, and killed a chicken and dog.
"The general trend! My current plan can only last through the first ten years at best, and in thirty years, when Great Qin Taizu establishes the Great Qin Dynasty, it will definitely be conquered, which is worse than the Ten Thousand Poison Sect. ”
"And even if I can do it like the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, in fact, I can't step through the hurdle fifty years later, the birth of the five super sects and the marriage with the royal family will form a different situation."
"Before this, whether it was an immortal cultivator who hid as a mortal, or an immortal cultivator sect who pretended to be a small family and a small force, in fact, as long as he didn't make trouble, as long as he wasn't an evil cultivator, the Great Qin Dynasty would not be too persecuted, but when the five super sects cooperated with the Great Qin Dynasty to expand the scale and authority of the Demon Hunting Division, they launched a hunt to kill immortal cultivators, and the bloody storm of the remnant sects, which is the so-called liquidation, has not subsided for a full thirty years."
"The Monster Hunting Division even hyped up the old things of the past, and used various stories to spread the terrible horrors of immortal cultivators among the people, and as a result, all mortals hated immortal cultivators to the bone, but if there were clues exposed, they would be reported......"
"These measures, if they are all instructions from the Great Qin Taizu, are far-fetched. The role played by the five super sects in this is by no means so glamorous. ”
"So, it's useless just to keep the Mountain Gate of the Floating Cloud Sect, I have to at least protect the millions of people in Qin Ge County!"
Jiang Mu thought heavily, it was a pity that he had been hiding in his last life, and he was even more panicked like a lost dog in the next thirty years, only occasionally hearing about some incidents, but not knowing more, now that he thinks about it carefully, since the marriage between the five super sects and Great Qin, many things have been a little weird.
But no matter what, he can't stop the tragedy from happening again, and can only try to save as many innocent mortals as possible.
And these mortals may be his biggest hole cards.
As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Mu's gaze swept over the second peak in the southwest, followed the Yudai River to the south, entered Yunhu, and finally landed in the Yunhu town in the northwest corner of Yunhu.
This place is an important stronghold of the Floating Cloud Sect in the mortal world, and it is also an important industry, and a small number of disciples of the Floating Cloud Sect who have been unable to cultivate immortals in the past dynasties have returned to their hometowns, and most of them have children in this place and will live their entire lives.
Therefore, Yunhu Town is very prosperous, with a population of more than 100,000, six fishing villages along the lake, twelve farming villages, and five tea villages that grow Yunhu tea.
There is also a Fang City of the Floating Cloud Sect in the town of Yunhu, facing immortal cultivators, five hundred years ago, the generation of the Floating Cloud Sect that almost flourished, was once one of the five major Fang cities in Qin Ge County.
And now, there are only four big Fang cities left in Qin Ge County, and this Yunhufang City has already existed in name only.
In fact, in the twenty years that Jiang Mu was in charge of the Fuyun Sect, Yunhufang City not only did not contribute a single spirit stone to the sect, but also paid about 1,000 spirit stones every year to support some of the disciples who came out of the mountain here, and almost all the taxes paid by Yunhu Town were spent on this.
But that's just the surface.
"This is the land of fish and rice!"
With the 80 years of exile in his previous life, Jiang Mu's perspective on problems is no longer the same.
From the second peak in the southwest to the plains around Yunhu, at least millions of mortals can be fed, so why do you have to rely on Fuyun Mountain to build a city?
He lives again, can't he even protect the three hundred miles around Yunhu?
"This city is built here!" Jiang Mu was ruthless in his heart, made a decision, and at the same time, his mind locked on Yunhu Town.
This location is good, first of all, it is near the lake, the terrain is quite high, the field of vision is wide, there is no flood invasion, it is said that the original construction of Yunhu Town, or a certain generation of the head of the Floating Cloud Sect, so there is nothing wrong with the location choice.
Secondly, Yunhu Town is backed by Yunhu Lake, and in front of it is a large area of fertile plains, and it is a good fertile land when it is reclaimed, as for why there was no large amount of reclamation before, of course, the Floating Cloud Sect does not allow it.
Third, Yunhu Town is only 50 miles away from the second peak in the southwest, connected by the Yudai River, which can be used by land or water, and there are several locations on both sides of the bank that can be used as ports.
However, this Cloud Lake City must be under the protection of the Mountain Protection Array in the early stage, and it must bear at least the first three years of chaos.
"It looks like I'm going to have to sell a few treasures early."
Jiang Mu pondered, the aura dissipated, no matter how powerful the magic weapon was, it was difficult to excite, it was better to sell it as soon as possible and exchange it for a spirit stone in order to buy a better mountain protection array.
Of course, this matter has to wait until the death of the senior brother Yao Cheng, otherwise the old man will probably fight with him.
For a while, Jiang Mu thought a lot, but there were few things that could be implemented immediately, one was to take care of the constraints of the senior brother and the second senior brother;
the second is to do things with money, food and spirit stones;
Thirdly, there is a shortage of people under him, and even if he has a few personal disciples under his hands, he can't let them do this kind of unreasonable thing at once.
For example, building a city is something that no cultivation sect in the world will do as a serious matter.
Immortal cultivators fly to the sky and the earth, omnipotent, you let us build the city?
Don't let your own disciples mistakenly think that they have been robbed of their minds by demons!
As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Mu secretly woke up, his state was indeed a little impatient, all kinds of things in his previous life, although it was painful, but he couldn't lose the most fundamental reason.
anyway
In another three months, Senior Brother Yao Chengcheng will begin to retreat, ignoring foreign affairs.
Six months later, the second senior brother Xu Yi returned from injury, and his foundation was damaged.
Eight months later, the elder brother failed to rush through the level and went mad and died.
Without these two, even if the slut Ji Yao comes back, he won't be able to set off the storm.
So he doesn't have to do anything, just be patient.
