Chapter 428: Food Shortage
Li Shi set up two different effects of wind and floating water on the driftwood linked to these links, and with the assistance of these two effects, for the victims crossing the river, I dare not say that they can completely eliminate the possibility of them falling into the water, but at least the number of them falling into the water will be greatly reduced, which is also the limited help that Li Shi can do. Of course, like all of Li Shi's formations, if this large-scale formation wants to be maintained, it takes two hundred fourth-grade spars every hour to maintain, and the price is not low.
However, Li Shizhi is still willing to pay this price, at least compared to human life, these spars are worth the cost.
Li Shi knew that if he wanted to implement the unity of immortals and mortals, he would slowly boil frogs in warm water as if to lure this group of disaster victims, and he might not be able to realize his immortal plan, after all, he was a cultivator, and the most important thing was time.
But Li Shi is not a person from this world after all, although this trace of estrangement is almost invisible to Li Shi, who has lived in this world for so long, but when Li Shi needs to make some decisions to sacrifice people, Li Shi's decisions are colder than everyone in this world, because in Li Shi's consciousness, there is a difference between those who are sacrificed and himself.
However, Li Shi didn't have time to think about these things, because soon Li Shi put into the busy construction, tens of millions of people, integrated into an island of only about five million, even though he was ready, but when it came to the end, it still gave people a feeling of being caught off guard, Li Shi was fortunate that Kong Jiegu had the cooperation of the two people, but the situation was maintained, and as one project after another appeared in front of this group of victims, knowing that as long as they worked, they could pack food and give food, these originally some commotion victims quickly settled down, for the victims, they really asked very little。
There are almost no people who dare to make trouble, because their troubles really mean nothing to cultivators, the only meaning is to help Li Shi and others establish their authority, so that Li Shi's orders can be implemented, at least to destroy the order he has made, Li Shi will definitely not be soft!
As the projects are carried out under the hard work of the victims, these victims will soon forget about Li Shi's brutality, because for these newly affected victims, only the heavy food in their hands is the most real, and although Li Shi's behavior is cruel and inhumane at least in the eyes of mortals, it has kept them alive and can see the hope of a better future.
The new houses are located, the land is reclaimed, the canals are built, and even the path from the village to the town is also created little by little by these influx of victims with their hands in a short period of time, at least at this moment, these victims have never felt the hope of life, their disaster is caused by Li Shi, but their hope is also brought by Li Shi!
The simple people who were good at forgetting their grudges and remembering their kindness soon forgot the ruthlessness of Li Shi when he drove them to the beginning, but at this time they remembered the new hope that Li Shi brought to them, and the monks of the family took the initiative to give Li Shi a rank, praying that Li Shi would be blessed with a long life, at least to be able to bless them with a few more years of stability.
And these days, Li Shi clearly felt that his cultivation speed was getting faster and faster, and this feeling of rapid progress made Li Shi a little stunned, did he take any panacea recently, he had no impression!
To tell the truth, Li Shi has been cultivating from the successful tribulation to the early stage of foundation building, although he has always cultivated, but the speed of cultivation is also average, most of them are supported by his own Aoki tree heart, after all, his cultivation talent is not outstanding, and even to a certain extent, because a lot of time is spent on dealing with government affairs and preparing for the war department, he even has very little time to study the formation, let alone concentrate on cultivation, but recently Li Shi has felt that his cultivation speed is gradually getting faster, as if his wooden fish head suddenly opened up, and it is incredible。
In this way, Li Shi estimates that it will take him another five years to advance to the middle stage of foundation building!
Li Shi didn't delve into this matter, but soon, there was another thing that pressed on Li Shi, that is, there was not enough food!
As more and more mortals were sent to Qinglian Island, in terms of the survival resources of Qinglian Island itself, it could not supply 20 million or even 50 million people with food, if it were not for the monk's spiritual field to grow the food of the mortal world, it would be able to harvest these grains in a very short time, and the food of Qinglian Island would have been consumed long ago.
But even so, the survival pressure caused by thousands of mouths waiting for the grain to go to the pot also made Li Shi feel breathless, and at this time Kong Jie said, "I'll go and inform Changge to postpone the continued relocation of the disaster victims!"
"No!" Li Shi took a deep breath and said, "You have seen the great power that these mortals can achieve, and the entire Qinglian Island has radiated a completely different vitality with the influx of this large group of people, and the more the population, the greater the potential in the future, if we want to have the opportunity to eat so many mortals in the future, at least Cangshui will never give us again! In the final analysis, although these mortals are not in the eyes of Cangshui, they are their wealth and the reserve of their descendants! They will not really let us wantonly plunder and possess! ”
If so...... We have to borrow food!" At this time, Kong Jie was silent for a while, but replied.
"Do you want to borrow food from Cangshui...... I've thought about this, but if we take the initiative to borrow food from Cangshui, I'm afraid we won't have a position to stay out of the matter, and if we don't participate in this confrontation, Cangshui will definitely not lend us food!"
"Cangshui Kunlun's grain is naturally not easy to borrow, but there are two places where there is still food!" Kong Jie said.
"Oh......" Hearing this, Li Shi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Where is it!"
"Lan Li...... and the Canghai Sea Clan!" At this time, Kong Jie's expression was a little solemn, and his eyes looked directly at Li Shi.
"Canghai Sea Clan?!" For Lan Li, Li Shi also had an estimate in his heart, but Canghai Sea Clan, this is really something Li Shi didn't expect, after all, between himself and Canghai Sea Clan, although there is no deep hatred, but it is somewhat of losing their face, in such a situation, I didn't expect that Kong Jie would actually propose Canghai Sea Clan!
"Lan Li's words, I'll let Senior Brother Shuhe go, and Canghai Clan, I'll go by myself!" Li Shi took a deep breath and said.
