Miao Mountain is a newly established gathering place for mortals near Xilihe Station.
Miaoshan, or Miaoshan Village, is located on a hill less than two hundred meters high. It is a gathering place for "sinners" who were taken in by Master Zhang Xian half a year ago. Most of them are ordinary people, but there are also a small number of strong men.
Over the past few months, the death penalty in Xilihe Station seems to have disappeared. All death row prisoners have been taken to Miao Mountain by Master Xian. There is no threat of death penalty at the Xilihe defense line, and the "crime" rate has suddenly increased. In addition, the city lord's palace also sent people to communicate with Zhang Xianshi. Finally, Zhang Xianshi made a concession and announced that all people in Miao Mountain were not allowed to leave the Sanhe Rainforest without orders. Even if the "sinners" survived, they would not be able to return home for the rest of their lives. Imprisonment has stopped the "crime" rate in the West Lihe defense line.
Miao Mountain is a small mountain found nearby by Zhang Xianshi, less than five kilometers away from the Xili River station. It is not close to the Xili River, but there is a small tributary passing by. There is sufficient water source and the lighting conditions are good even after cutting down a circle of trees. It's pretty good. Apart from the somewhat humid environment in the rainforest, it's a barely suitable place for survival.
At the beginning of Miaoshan's establishment, Master Zhang Xian used part of the resources of the Xilihe Station to successfully establish a mountain stronghold on it.
In fact, this kind of land enclosure is illegal. Even if Miao Mountain is not under the jurisdiction of Rainstorm City, ordinary people do not have the authority to occupy the land, because the entire Sanhe Rainforest is actually considered the territory of the Xiangshan Sect, but Zhang Changkong is an immortal master. Even the city lord's palace turned a blind eye to the condemned prisoners he detained, let alone a wasteland.
At first, most people stationed in Xilihe did not think that Miaoshan could successfully establish a foothold in the Sanhe Rainforest. Not to mention the dangers of insects, even the environment of the Sanhe Rainforest was a disaster for ordinary people.
However, the Immortal Master first placed his insect swarms around Miao Mountain to defend against other insects, and initially solved the threat of insects. Then he instructed the houses on the cottage to be built more than half a meter above the ground, which can defend against some ground insects and the rain forest. The occasional miasma in the air greatly improved the survival rate of ordinary people and allowed Miaoshan to initially stabilize.
Then the people in Miao Mountain began to cultivate various bugs according to Master Zhang Xian's request. I don't know whether it was because of lack of food or because the bugs were really attractive. There was a custom in Miao Mountain of treating some harmless bugs as food. Since bugs were added to After getting the food, Miaoshan also solved the most basic problem of food and clothing.
Today, the area around Miaoshan has gradually grown to the size of a town, and this town does not have to pay taxes to the city lord's palace. Everything there is only responsible to Master Zhang Xian, and it has become Master Zhang's private domain.
But there are still many problems on Miaoshan.
To the west of Lihe Station, there is Zhang Changkong's courtyard.
Wan Gong stood respectfully in front of Zhang Changkong, watching Zhang Changkong slowly drink tea, a new drink in Xili River. Tea is a new thing. It was the people stationed in Xili River who discovered the tea tree in Zhang Changkong's yard. , and occasionally heard that Master Xian used this kind of leaves to brew with water, so the strongmen and even ordinary people stationed in Xilihe ran to the Sanhe Rainforest one by one to dig up the existing tea trees around them.
No matter what effect this tea has, other people just need to know that this is the immortal master who can brew it and drink it, so they follow suit one after another. For a while, there is a tea culture in Xilihe Station.
Zhang Changkong placed his insect swarm in Miao Mountain, so Wan Gong could step into the courtyard with confidence and no longer had to "message with the gong".
"Are you saying that there are more men than women in Miao Mountain? There is an urgent need for female supplements?"
Zhang Changkong put down his teacup.
"Back to Master Immortal, there are now more than 7,000 to 8,000 people in Miao Mountain, and there are less than 200 women. There is a serious imbalance. Those women are still the strongmen in Miao Mountain who were originally family members in Heavy Rain City or bought from Heavy Rain City. Ordinary people basically don’t have partners." Wan Gong replied that ordinary people in Miaoshan were recruited from Sanhe Prefecture, and basically all of them were men.
"Rikishi have families, but ordinary people don't. They can't tell their families to come over?"
Zhang Changkong asked.
"Maybe they are not very willing to do this."
Zhang Changkong understood. These people think that Miaoshan is a poor place and they don’t want their families to suffer. In fact, it’s not bad. Every month in Miaoshan, ordinary people lose their lives due to various accidents. This kind of environment brings Zhang Changkong did not have the ability or energy to deal with the consequences.
"Then what do you think?"
Zhang Changkong suppressed the impatience in his heart. To be honest, the insect experiments he arranged in Miaoshan had not yielded any results so far. The greater the disappointment, the less and less he paid attention to Miaoshan, and he did not want to be in Miaoshan anymore. Waste no time on it.
"Master Immortal, in fact, we have more men than women in Miao Mountain, but this is not necessarily the case in the entire Sanhe Prefecture. The years of corvee work has meant that there are many men and women in Sanhe Prefecture. This time, Rainstorm City has recruited many ordinary people, and 99% of them are still Men have aggravated this phenomenon. There are countless women in Sanhe Prefecture who have lost their husbands, and how many women are waiting for marriage without suitable marriage partners." Wan Gong said slowly, "I have two ideas. Use money to buy and find a way to easily get many women through trade. Second, we in Miaoshan pulled out a team and went to Sanhe Prefecture to persuade a group of women to come back. Well, these two methods can also be a two-pronged approach."
Zhang Changkong glanced at Wan Gong indifferently and said, "Buy it with money? You spend money? Also, Miaoshan is in my name. You can never burn, kill, loot or loot without my instructions."
Zhang Changkong wondered if someone else should be in charge of Miaoshan. Wan Gong was full of bandit leader ideas. If he didn't pay attention, Miao Shan might become a bandit den. Unfortunately, there were too few people under his command, and Wan Gong's character came first. Not to mention, but the ability is better among the five-man team. Besides, the other four people may not be kind people. Zhang Changkong, who was born in black from Wanzhu Peak, does not think that the education they received is legitimate.
Wan Gong smiled awkwardly. He used to think that Zhang Xianshi's ideas were different from ordinary people's. They were a little weird. He could obviously grab some things easily, but he had to follow rules. He didn't care much about ordinary people, but he would protect those in Miaoshan. Ordinary people who deserve to die.
This weird character made Wan Gong extremely uncomfortable. To this day, he still doesn't know how to act in line with Master Xian's ideas.
"Then I wonder what the Master Immortal's instructions are?"
Wan Gong had no choice but to figure out the immortal master's thoughts, so he could only ask.
"I have no other instructions. You are responsible for solving the Miaoshan matter. In addition to not burning, killing, looting, and um, you are not allowed to buy and sell people. If there are any difficulties, you can find a solution. Also, as for the problem of too many boys and girls you mentioned, no matter what you can do, If we can't solve it, Miaoshan will stipulate from now on that one man and one wife are the rules, and whoever breaks it will be exiled to the rain forest to fend for himself."
Wan Gong was shocked. He had brought two women from Rainstorm City and raised them in Miao Mountain this year. Master Xian wouldn't have any objection to this, right?
"Go out if you have nothing to do. Don't bother me with these trivial matters in the future. If you are not capable of managing Miaoshan, I will replace it with someone else and you can go to the battlefield to fight the insects."
When Wan Gong heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat. When he went to the battlefield, he put his head on his waistband. His sense of combat had been dulled this year, and he would most likely have to lie down when he came out.
"Don't worry, Master Immortal. I will keep Miaoshan in check and will never let anyone dare to violate the regulations." Although Wan Gong didn't know how to develop other than burning, killing and looting, he still thought about his life for the sake of his life. , his chest was beating loudly.
Wan Gong left in great melancholy.
Zhang Changkong walked into the training room and practiced with his eyes closed.
