After descending from Zhongxuan Mountain, heading south, we entered the land of Qingzhou.
In the land of Qingzhou, there have been severe droughts for many years, and the land is red for thousands of miles. Under the scorching sun, there are dry rivers, cracked land, and a desolate and lifeless scene everywhere.
In such a drought situation, the officials of the Daqian Dynasty not only did not actively provide disaster relief, dig wells and build canals to save the drought-stricken land, but instead took this opportunity to embezzle land and wantonly amass wealth and food.
This has resulted in countless fertile fields being forced to become abandoned or even disappear, and a large number of farmers who depend on the land for survival not only have to deal with the drought alone, but also suffer exploitation from corrupt officials.
With almost no way to survive, they had to be displaced and traveled thousands of miles, hoping to find somewhere else to survive.
But how could the state capitals of other states in the Daqian Dynasty be willing to accept this group of useless refugees? They set up border checkpoints, hoarded troops, and blocked state borders, making it almost impossible for unarmed victims to cross the border.
Years of severe drought, poor harvests, land annexation, oppression and exploitation... When all of these come together, the scene before our eyes will appear.
Xu Yue stood on a desolate mound, looking at the burning charcoal and wood in front of him, the long-abandoned cauldron, and the tiny bones remaining in the pot, and couldn't help but fall into a long silence.
With his eyes, he could naturally see that these were human bones, and they were the bones of a child.
Around them, there are bones of children and adults everywhere, and some even turned into shriveled corpses not long after they fell.
"There's a severe drought, and people eat each other." Xu Yue murmured in a deep voice, and he didn't know whether it was anger or sadness in his tone.
In history books, this is just a few words, which seems to be an understatement, but how many people can understand the cruelty behind it?
"Even if I open a new heaven, can such a scene be prevented? Or will it be another reincarnation three hundred years later?" Xu Yue's eyelids drooped, and there was endless confusion in his words.
Along the way, there were corpses everywhere in the wilderness, and victims were constantly displaced, even fighting for life and death for a bite to eat.
What's ironic is that in the county, there is a large amount of food in the cellars of various landlords. Instead of using it to provide disaster relief, they have cultivated an army and defended the city, absolutely not letting the refugees get anything.
Originally out of anger, he directly broke into the city alone and distributed food to the nearby victims. But what he didn't expect was that instead of making the situation better, it actually triggered a riot.
He spent a lot of effort to stop it, but with his ability, he simply did not have the strength to rebuild a new order. Moreover, many people below him acted secretly and secretly, undermining the rule.
In the end, instead of saving the victims in that area, the county town was almost destroyed in the riots.
"So, if we want to end this troubled world, we must overthrow the original exploiting class and carry out redistribution." At this time, Lin Chen's voice came from beside him.
"Only by removing all exploitation and establishing a new order can natural and man-made disasters be completely quelled and peace restored."
"But this is just a peaceful life. When the dynasty turns from prosperity to decline, won't the tragedies of these thousands of years also happen?" Xu Yue responded in a low voice, "I originally thought that with my own power, , to subjugate the world, enough to create peace for all eternity."
"But no matter how powerful I am, to rule the world, I still need the help of countless people, but these people will form big families and squeeze the people..."
"Even if I try my best to stop it, I can stop it for a lifetime, a thousand years, or even a long, long time. But for the vast Qingshi, this is only a moment."
"So, even if there is a law from heaven that comes to the human world, the world will remain the same and it still cannot be changed?"
"How do you know if you haven't tried it?" Lin Chen looked at Xu Yue with a normal expression and said in a calm tone, "In my opinion, if you want to completely change the current situation, you can only form a new order, a A new order that is different from previous dynasties can completely turn a new page in history."
"Brother Lin, is there anything you can do?" Xu Yue's eyes lit up after hearing this.
In his opinion, the Lin Chen in front of him was too mysterious, and he might be able to find a way to completely end the reincarnation of this world.
"My way is not here." But Lin Chen shook his head, "So I didn't explore a solution."
"But..." Just when Xu Yue's heart sank, Lin Chen suddenly changed the topic, "I can't help it, but in this world, someone seems to have taken a new path. The reason why I didn't I took a detour to Qingzhou just to take a look."
"A new road?!" Xu Yue was startled at first, then a look of joy appeared on his face, and he asked quickly, "In ancient times, Daxuan ruled the world with etiquette, Dachu ruled the country with law, Dakun used filial piety to pacify the dynasty... However, these roads, They have all failed, and what is the new path now?”
Lin Chen didn't reply for a while, but looked to the east with a strange look on his face. After a while, he replied: "This new road is called - Taiping Road."
"Taipingdao?!" Xu Yue's expression froze when he heard this, "But the legendary Taipingdao uses talisman water to cure diseases and promotes legends of gods? Although there are laws from heaven that have come to the human world, how can we construct reality with this illusory theory? ruling order?”
"Fu Shui? Immortal?" Lin Chen responded casually, but his eyes were a little wandering.
He didn't expect that a seed he planted casually back then could now grow into such a fruit.
"These are not the essence of Taiping Dao at all... Forget it, it is better to see it with your own eyes than to say it is a thousand things and ten thousand. Come with me."
Lin Chen didn't say anything, but took a step forward, with the wind surrounding his feet, and moved forward at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing this, Xu Yue's eyes flashed and he also followed.
The two of them stood on the barren land and walked for a day and a night.
I don't know how far I have walked, but the dry areas are slowly decreasing, and there is already a faint green color in the nearby land.
Not only that, the two discovered that there were a large number of refugees, forming a thousands-mile-long flow of people, dragging their families with them. Even though their faces were hungry and their steps were slow, they were still rushing towards one place, as if that was where they were. Hope is common.
"In such a drought, there is still such green color?! Could it be God's blessing?" Xu Yue was surprised when he saw this.
"It's not necessarily God's blessing." Lin Chen said beside him, and then pointed to the sky.
Xu Yue looked up and saw that under the scorching sun, what should have been a clear sky was filled with white clouds one after another in this area.
Although he didn't know how rain formed, he knew that where there were clouds, there was likely to be rain.
"In a place with a severe drought, there are thousands of miles of clouds. Isn't this a blessing from God?" Xu Yue had some confusion on his face.
Lin Chen did not continue to answer his question, but looked at the clouds in the sky, and then at the nearby peaks that were obviously hills but unexpectedly appeared, and couldn't help but sigh.
'Changing the celestial phenomena and transforming the terrain with a radius of hundreds of miles is something that only the golden elixir stage monks can do... I didn't expect that someone would use the inner elixir method I spread to indirectly achieve this step. '
During this parade around the world, Lin Chen had to admit that the creativity of this world's outstanding people really exceeded his initial expectations.
Whether it is the inspiration of the method of Gangqi, the data of the method of illusion and Baodan, or the virtual world constructed by the human brain as a computer, or the following Tao of Taiping... Seriously, compare them one by one, let's He was pleasantly surprised.
'I really didn't expect that the outstanding people born in this small Daqian dynasty could produce so many achievements after the collision with the inner alchemy method of my previous life...'
'Whether you realize that the world is made of Qi, or use illusions and dreams to explore the reality of the world, or use the method of holding elixirs to develop your own martial arts... Everyone has his own way and philosophy, and his own way. Determination and courage to open a new chapter. '
'I just sow a seed, but they can use it to create different fruits. No matter whether they can succeed or not, we cannot deny that they are amazing and talented...'
As his thoughts were flowing, Lin Chen took Xu Yue directly to the nearest mountain. Halfway up the mountain, the latter was surprised to see.
Surrounded by these mountains is a huge basin.
And in the basin, on the land that should be dry, there are golden wheat fields covering thousands of miles.
At the very center of the basin is an unprecedented majestic city.
Above the gate of the giant city, there are three big characters written clearly - Huangtian City!
