Chapter 90: Giving

You think you're here at the Normandy landings, a central pivot in the course of the world war, but you're told not to dream, it's just a dog-eat-dog battle between Hungary and Romania. There were a lot of deaths, the fight was very fierce, the hatred between the two sides was also very bloody, and the emotions of the two nations were very high.

I smiled bitterly in my heart, am I really too young? That's right, after all, I have only crossed into this world for a little more than a year, and the scope of my activities is limited to Lianyun Peak for most of the time, and the only long distance is the southward journey that has just ended. I always subconsciously think that the current world is still the same size as the original earth, so I once again fell into the trap of thinking - "cognitive obstacles". The rich and explosive information society of the previous world has solidified some fundamental understandings, which are engraved in the logic of my behavior and cognition, and I am not unjustly lost. After all, this is a giant plane world that has been discovered by those primordial gods, and may have a light-year length and diameter. All my past cosmic worldviews seem ridiculous here.

What kind of preconceived mind should I compare to those people in the heavens, a group of gods, a group of Buddhas, a group of DND gods, a group of Marvel cosmic gods, or the evil gods of Crusuri?

"Senior Brother Guanshui, it's useless to think too much. We are said to be free immortals, happy and free, able to fly in the sky, and can guard the earth, which seems to be the heaven of ordinary mortals. But really, what is the difference between us foundation building monks who can only live for 300 years and mortals in the eyes of those immortal primordial gods?

I nodded, and my words were sarcastic: "Yes." Mortals have no more than sixty years to live. Even if this stubble dies, in a few decades, there will still be so many people on this land again. So the big men in the sky can move the spiritual membrane, change the spiritual energy, destroy the monsters, and make a joke about our life and death? Are we guys putting on a show for them?"

Lin Keya patted my arm and signaled that I didn't need to continue: "Who knows? Are you also guessing that the primordial gods of the Heavenly Bird Gate want to borrow the aura to reverse and give birth to some special goblins so that some seeds can be selected?"

I glanced up at Lin Keya. Sure enough, no one is blind. I'm guessing a little deeper than she is, though, but I'm still a little unsure.

Lin Keya continued: "The Yuan Shen Ancestors on our side are not pure-minded. ”

Only halfway through the words, Lin Keya did not continue.

There was silence in the alchemy room. Those girls had already withdrawn from the door as we were talking, and when the topic escalated, even the few female Qi cultivators covered their ears and ran away in panic.

"Senior Sister Lin, let's put down these topics first. What is the use of worrying about these things, two of us foundation building monks? It is better to focus on the present and save these mortals in front of us. I diverted the topic and continued with the question that had just been cut off: "Senior Sister Lin, you haven't said yet, what is the market near Lianyun Peak now?"

I felt that there was nothing wrong with the question I asked, but Lin Keya on the other side chuckled lightly and pointed a little finger: "Ah Shui, aren't you very smart in front of you, why can't you even find Fang City?"

She just laughed, and I was a little annoyed by the laughter.

I was speechless and said, "Senior Sister Lin, I now have 120,000 people under my command, and I need a lot of food every day. Just by collecting it from the neighborhood, it was only enough for the people below for thirty days. I just want to buy some food from other fellow Daoists and bring something else, what's so ridiculous about that?"

That's right, I've got all the food I can find around the abandoned town. I divided the sphere of influence with those senior brothers in Lianyun City and encircled a large area. Then I sent almost all of my Qi cultivators, each leading a team of warriors, to go to various towns under my name to suppress the local tyrants, eliminate the bandits, control the rich merchants, dig up the treasury, and harvest the fields. But that's it, there is still not much food to be obtained. The torrent of demonization that broke out in front of him destroyed too many little demons, overwhelming the world, and eating too many things.

I can't say, in fact, what I have the most left in my hands now is actually the monster meat that has been hunted and slaughtered and cleaned up.

In order to gather food to satisfy their stomachs, my refugees did everything they could. The district field method, fast-growing grain, miscellaneous grain, barren grain, wild vegetables, fishing, gathering, hunting, all of them are used. For the sake of food, there have long been all kinds of reluctance and embarrassment below. If it weren't for the fact that I enforced the law strictly, handled all kinds of affairs fairly and quickly, and used the Flying Cloud Boat to pack up the vulnerable groups such as the disabled, the weak, the lonely, and the elderly, and even used the transaction method to control all the cultivators and most of the samurai, and replaced them with other foundation building monks, the people below would have eaten people.

On the side of Lianyun City, people have been running over recently. Then I couldn't escape my "True Self Heart Camp Technique", and I cut off my head and built it into the Jingguan with a bloody and cruel body. It turned out that those foundation building monks were only interested in exploring Lianyun Peak, thinking of snatching back those cultivation resources on the mountain, so they let the Qi cultivation cultivators below manage the various towns. There are not enough Qi cultivators, and their hearts are even more on Lianyun Peak, or they want to run away, so they naturally decentralize their powers to the following. It's a good thing to say, as long as there are no large-scale dead people, and then the dead can be cremated into ashes and not let it become a ghost zombie, everything will be lenient. Then, the hoarders raised the price of grain to one tael of silver a catty.

It's not that it can't be higher.

It's just that Senior Brother Lu Yun over there killed a lot of people to control the price of grain. This also made him have to leave Lianyun City with the family warriors and occupy a deserted village, so as to avoid the fact that the warriors below were poisoned, assassinated, booby-trapped, and murdered. Then, in Lianyun City, it degenerated into a demon cave. Where sunlight can't see, anything happens. None of the people who left there were innocent.

Lin Keya suppressed the slight ridicule on her face, it was very serious, and said with a straight face: "Guanshui, do you really want to tie all these people below to your waist? Aren't you afraid that they will be too heavy, pull you into the water, and let you drown?"

Hehe, that's a strange question!

Cultivating the truth and cultivating the truth, is it to cultivate such an iron-hearted heart?

Not to mention anything else, the Chen family behind me is below, some people from Xie Baoqin's family are also below, Liu Xiaoqin's family, Shen Xiaotong's family, Pan Haying's family, Liu Guanghe's family, and almost every cultivator is behind a large number of people. Is it that we should only protect these people and not care about the lives of others?

I was silent, just pulling something out of my storage bag. The "bank check" of 100,000 spirit stones that he got when he was in the Bone Snake Gorge, some things he got from the Jin Dan of Molong Lake that he killed in the southern swamp, some spirit stones dug up from various ruins along the way north, some high-grade materials from monsters, and some spirit grass and spiritual objects that he grabbed from several lost medicine garden spiritual lands.

"Is that enough?"

I was calm and looked directly at Lin Keya opposite.

Lin Keya only looked at me, and didn't look at the things on the ground at all.

"Senior Brother Chen, I can help you, and I can even help you solve all the current problems once and for all. But are you reluctant to give it up?"

I blinked.

The Empty Demon Sword?The red and black books in my Goldfinger Space?The Taoist books that Master Xie Daoqing opened and made an exception to show me?The superlative alchemy I just showed? My trick of building a foundation by leaps? Can I pick up the secret of "Lin Nineteen"? What is behind the powerful combat power I showed all the way north? Why did Du You and Xie Hongqi pay attention to me one after another?My Goldfinger Space?

The truth is that I'm overthinking it again.

"I heard that Senior Brother Chen, you were in Xiuyun City, and you once got a mirror fragment from Uncle An Xian'er?"

Hey?

"Patriarch Chen Liu'er of Luofu Mountain Liu'er Fang asked me to bring you a message, only to ask you if you are reluctant?"

What does that mean?

"If you are willing, you will have someone from the Chen family to help you get ahead. The trivial matter of lack of food is not worth mentioning to the Luofu Chen family. Even if you have some things hidden in your heart, Senior Brother Chen, you can also ask them for help. ”

"Is it expensive?"

"Naturally, it's very expensive!Is the fragment of my father's body in the hands of you, a little guy?" Yinling chuckled, and a woman in a red palace outfit with a high updo, wide sleeves, and big breasts "walked" out of a mirror next to her.

"Slave Chen Ajing, I have seen this little brother. The voice was crisp and happy, but with a wave of his hand, he took in the storage bag on my waist. With a backhand, without my consent, he easily opened the forbidden talisman array that I had specially set up at the mouth of the bag, and poured out everything I had hidden inside.

"Hehe, this little brother is good. It seems that this is still a mutant rune array, how many pieces are missing, and how many pieces are more? Hmm, the little brother is an ethereal root?"

What do you mean?

There were a large pile of mountain-like gold bars on the ground, more than a dozen boxes of jewelry, hundreds of special boxes containing various high-grade spiritual materials, dozens of powerful demon beast corpses sealed with rune arrays, and many more shady things. The most conspicuous thing is the hundreds of thousands of spirit stones, of which there are more than 3,000 medium-grade spirit stones and twelve high-grade spirit stones.

"The little guy is dishonest. If you really want to buy food, you should take these things out too!" the woman in red picked up my face, and her tone was very frivolous.

Hehe, what are these things?

Didn't you see Lin Keya's eyes change color over there.

"Ah Shui, I remember that this storage bag belongs to Wushanfang, and there is only fifty cubic meters of space in it?"

"Oh, it turns out that little brother, you have already learned the empty rune yourself. That's right! I just looked away. Inside this bag is, well, 1,500 cubic abbots. There are already one hundred and fifty forbidden runes outside. Yes, the runes are good, the magic circle is also good, and the sacrifice is even better, but there is still room for it. Little brother, who is your master? Don't tell me it's the little girl of the Xie family!"

Excuse me, who are you?
