Tomorrow I will go to Shunyi for training, I hope not to delay the update, if there is a problem, it is also a problem of the network, absolutely nothing to do with the stock market, poor road firmly stand by the side of the national team, for the country to protect the plate!

"A Han Enlightenment Sutra" arrived, Jueyuan achieved the purpose of this trip, and he left. He has been sneaking into Sichuan for half a year, and he has been away from Da Lei Guang Temple for a long time, and he is very worried in his heart.

Zhao Ran didn't keep it, and the relationship between him and Jueyuan was a little unclear. It stands to reason that the enemy country and Buddhism are not tolerated in the summer, and there have been many battles between the two, including many times when they are killed. Don't look at the fighting method when trying your best, after the fighting method is completed, there is a little sympathy, and they all feel that the other party's personality and temper are very appetizing, but they are hindered by the general trend and cannot make deep friends.

After Jueyuan left, Junshan began the first autumn harvest, and the people were organized and put into it. With the beginning of the autumn harvest, the number of refugees affected by the disaster in Jiangyou County gradually increased, and by the beginning of October, the refugees were surging, and two or three hundred people would come to Junshan every day.

According to the previous strategy, Lin Shuangwen was responsible for the relief of the victims, setting up checkpoints at various entrances and exits, blocking all the refugees and leading them to the relief point on Xiaojunshan West Road.

After the victims arrived at the relief point, Lin Shuangwen would preach to them about the relief policy of Junshan Temple, and then screen the disaster victims ♂, and those who were willing to move here would cut down trees and build houses, open up flat land as land, and those who did not want to live here for a long time would organize themselves to participate in the autumn harvest of Junshan in exchange for food to fill their stomachs.

The common people have a strong sense of locality, and most of them are reluctant to move even if they are just separated by a county. In the first few days, less than 10 percent of the population was willing to move here.

In addition to the strong sense of locality, the common people of this era were quite honest and loyal, and they did not pretend that they were going to move because of the great difference in the rations allocated, so as to cheat food and drink. This surprised Zhao Ran, and many of the precautions he prepared were not used.

To the surprise of everyone in Junshan Temple. Their efforts to preach the relocation policy and make promises did not do much, but it was the autumn harvest that swayed the victims.

Ordinary people do not take the promises of others lightly, they pay more attention to seeing is believing. When they saw the heavy ears of rice in the rice field, and when they knew that the land under their feet was still the first new field, they all had a thought: when this land becomes ripe, how much should the harvest be?

Then look at the ditches that come and go, look at the new houses in the three villages, and listen to the people of Junshan tell about Zhao Daochang's immortal skills......

At the end of the autumn harvest, more than half of the people chose to move here. Jin Jiu and Lin Shuangwen divided the newly relocated 2,000 victims into two parts, one part of which was built on the site of the relief point on the west side of Xiaojun Mountain, and the other part was built in a small basin seven miles northeast of the mountain, and Zhao Ran named them "Shangxin Village" and "Xiaxin Village" respectively.

In order to let these new immigrants from Junshan have a house to live in, Zhao Ran organized all the young people who had just finished harvesting the grain to help build wooden houses.

In November. The wooden houses of the two new villages were built, and the new immigrants moved into their new homes with joy.

The next step is to develop the basin on which the two villages are located. The trees were cut down, the land was leveled and renovated, and a channel was built to divert water from the springs in the mountains. The project is very large, and it was not done overnight. However, once the project is completed, the cultivated land under the jurisdiction of Junshan Temple will be 8,000 acres more!

Both farmlands were originally dense forests. It is not in the official register, the most important thing is that this is the junction of Jiangyou County and Guyang County, which belongs to the three-regardless zone, so Zhao Ran is not ready to report this land to the government. All the output here can be left for self-use.

Half of the victims are still reluctant to relocate, but they are not yet able to return to their hometowns, and they need to spend the winter here until the floods have completely subsided and the epidemic has cleared before they can return to spring farming – of course, they will have to find a way to get seeds and food, otherwise they will not have a good life when they return.

Zhao Ran estimates that after the beginning of spring next year, half of the more than 2,000 victims will likely choose to stay in the end, so he has been providing relief rations to them. Of course, it is not possible to let them eat and drink for nothing, some of them need to continue to work and help clear the land, while others have to set up workshops under the leadership of craftsmen, remove the branches and polish the felled trees, and dry them to use as raw materials for the production of furniture.

Jin Jiu selected dozens of Junshan people to enter Cointreau Mountain, took advantage of the slack time to build a clay kiln, and began to build a ceramic workshop. These people will be apprenticed to learn the art of making pottery and porcelain under the guidance of a master craftsman.

Of course, the craftsman was also fooled by Zhao Ran into settling in Junshan, not only promising heavy profits, but also promising to give shares to the ceramic workshop, otherwise this skill would not be taught at all.

For a while, the five-color master was unlucky, and he was pulled by Zhao Ran to work hard. One moment he went to the forest to cut wood, one time he went up the mountain to dig a ditch, another time he dug a hole to dig clay, and another time he used his beak and claws to turn the ground, and he was very busy.

Zhao Ran has completely used the five-color master as a bird-shaped automatic multi-purpose agricultural machine, and what he paid was only a variety of delicacies, which was completely disproportionate to the harvest.

In the winter of the sixteenth year of Jiajing, Zhao Shenxian once again harvested a large number of believers in the Junshan area. The people in Jiangyou County survived because of him, and most of them saw the hope of a better life in the future and joined the ranks of the believers.

In the winter of this year, Zhao Ran gained a lot of merit, and for the first time, the refining speed could not keep up with the increase in merit. He cultivated day and night, and his mana skyrocketed every day.

On the first day of the seventeenth year of Jiajing, thousands of people came to Junshan Temple, offered incense in the Jade Emperor Palace, thanked Zhao Shenxian, and prayed for good weather in the coming year. Zhao Ran personally presided over the grand Zhaijiao ceremony, praying for the blessings of Junshan and the people.

At the end of the Jiao Festival, his prestige reached its peak, and the people fell at his feet to express their admiration to the beloved Zhao Shenxian.

The merit power is rapidly filling the sea of qi, and the transformed mana is rising at a speed that can be clearly perceived, Zhao Ran used to be able to throw more than ten fireworks talismans in one breath, but at this moment, the number has grown to more than forty, which is equivalent to a fourfold increase in the upper limit of mana!

By the time the Lantern Festival had passed, Zhao Ran found that the increase in the upper limit of his mana had begun to slow down significantly, in short, the sea of qi in his body had been filled to the point where it could not be increased. However, the merit power is still accumulating rapidly, and these accumulated merit power cannot be refined into mana, and it is stored in the sea of qi in a very mysterious way.

The space and capacity in the sea of qi are limited, and now the merit power and mana power have filled the sea of qi, but there is no exclusivity between the two, or there is no intersection, as if two sea of qi occupy one place, or one sea of qi has two spaces, and the two coincide but do not exclusive.

Zhao Ran still made a large amount of merit every day, but he painfully found that the speed of refining his mana had been declining, and he felt the gradual increase in merit power but couldn't start, Zhao Ran was very depressed.

From the perspective of mana, Zhao Ran knew that he was on the verge of breaking the realm. This is the terrifying thing about the cultivation of merit, when there is no merit, you can't cultivate anything, but once you have a large amount of merit, the speed of cultivation and transformation is fast and incoherent, and compared with the normal cultivation methods of Buddhism and Taoism, it is faster than ten times!

But Zhao Ran couldn't break through the realm, because his cultivation had a big shortcoming—the essence he condensed was not enough at all.

The main purpose of the cultivation of the Taoist realm is to condense the essence element, and then combine the essence element with the mana to form an invisible and colorless essence qi.

Zhao Ran's mana is almost full now, but the essence is insufficient, and the essence qi formed is far from reaching the point of fullness, so he can't enter the Yushi realm, and the cultivation level can't break through, and the increased merit power can only be accumulated and stored, and he can't continue to refine.

Everyone else is full of essence and lack of mana, but Zhao Ran is the opposite, he must be patient to make up for his shortcomings little by little. (To be continued......)
