Everyone looked at each other in confusion when they heard this. What is distilled water without impurities? Is there such a word? They traveled far and wide and lived for hundreds of years, but they had never heard of distilled water.
"Please take a look!" Li Xiu directly grabbed a ball of water from the pond. The water in the pond seemed clear, but in fact it was polluted. It was not even drinking water, let alone rootless water! Li Xiu directly boiled it with real fire. Under Li Xiu's control, the water vapor condensed into droplets of water, which soon became almost as big as a fist. Li Xiu used the only distilled water as big as his fist to wash his hands, and then took the yam orchid in his hand. As expected, it didn't appear that it would wither if touched.
"Wonderful! I never thought that Li Shaoxia could be so knowledgeable at such a young age. I admire him so much!" Baili Fu Laohuai was so relieved that the way he looked at Li Xiu changed.
Li Xiu bluntly said that he did not dare to take it seriously.
Then the four of them returned to the second hall, where Baili Fu entertained them warmly and left Pang Gu and Li Xiu to have lunch before talking about some of the details of the seven-day feast. Bailifu Shizi opened his mouth and demanded that all businesses in Nancheng's fifteen streets and sixty-eight lanes within an eighteen-mile radius should be directly under his name in the future, but he never mentioned the matter of the city's order.
The eighteen miles, fifteen streets and sixty-eight lanes in Nancheng are basically equivalent to obtaining one-tenth of Hancheng's land. Even if Hancheng is expanded in the future, the benefits will be divided according to the one-tenth calculation, and will not be limited to that square area. The area of Shibali. Moreover, that area is the most prosperous area besides Dongcheng.
Li Xiu felt that the old man was reclusive and his vision had become narrow-minded. This division seemed shrewd, but in fact it was not. If he was really sincere in assisting Pang Gu and supporting the academy, he would never do such a stupid thing. But Li Xiu didn't contradict him. After all, he wanted to ask for help from others. As the saying goes, one must first settle the internal affairs in order to fight against the outside world. At present, Pangu and Li Xiu had too many and too strong enemies. If even Hancheng couldn't work together, then they would be stretched thin. It’s hard to grow!
It is basically impossible to have one heart in the true sense. Only common interests can form alliances in the world. Brothers must settle accounts openly. Li Xiu doesn't think there is anything wrong.
But it is inevitable that I will feel unhappy.
Li Xiu felt that Jiang Bubai and Hua Zhong would bring this matter up soon. They may not be interested in Hancheng's interests, but they definitely want to strengthen their voice in Hanchen Academy, such as the elder's seat. I'm afraid The deck must be reshuffled.
Li Xiu didn't object or nodded. Seeing this, Pang Gu obviously understood that Li Xiu had acquiesced, which was almost consistent with Pang Gu himself.
It was already evening when I came out of the Shilang's Mansion.
The atmosphere in the whole Hancheng was very high. Who would have thought that a banquet for all demons would solve many problems, such as popularizing knowledge among the common people, such as many stories about the world of cultivating immortals, the conflicts between various ethnic groups, and what is cultivating immortals. , what is the constitution of a mortal, etc., were talked about in the crowd, and passed from one to ten, and from one to another, all kinds of exchanges and collisions spread like this.
Sure enough, a lot of things can be solved at the dinner table, and this feast is probably as good as a serious three-day lesson for these illiterate people. It can be seen that the seven-day feast, if nothing goes wrong, will have unexpected effects.
Originally, the efficiency of building houses, building Hancheng, and even constructing fortresses would be a hundred times higher if monks were used than if they were ordinary people. However, for the time being, neither Li Xiu nor Pang Gu said this in the past few days.
The fighting spirit is not only possessed by monks, but also for the common people to reproduce, to support their families, etc., as long as they are alive, they are fighting against the heaven and the earth.
But they need more training!
Only by letting them pay brick by brick, stitch by stitch, will they know how to cherish the results. Only by stimulating their fighting spirit can this initial group of people be integrated with Hanchen Academy.
Li Xiu understood that if he wanted to gain the heartfelt admiration and belonging of the people, he must educate and enlighten them. The current efforts of Hanchen Academy were far from enough. This point can be seen from the freezing disaster a few days ago. It is basically a mess. What is better is that the people in the academy are cohesive and have a fighting spirit!
Just imagine, if millions of people could achieve that kind of cohesion, their fighting spirit would be immortal and miracles would continue!
To achieve such a goal, we must first lift people out of poverty, of which cash crops and crops are the first step. In the long run, they will be more important than urban defense construction. With your own cash crops, you can be self-sufficient, and you can also open up trade routes and create more conditions for people to get rich.
These are all favorable conditions for increasing the population, and they are also the conditions that Hanchen Academy must provide in order to achieve the ambitious goal of that benchmark. Merely plundering the population and cutting leeks will not work!
Noon the next day.
A new feast is on time, and the highlight of this day is an all-seafood feast. What is different from the first day is that this time, restaurants, inns, restaurants, etc. across the city have opened free lunches, allowing people to line up to eat inside. For a time, the streets and alleys in various areas were full of people. There were still experts standing guard to maintain order, and almost no chaos occurred. After many people had eaten, they queued up at the gate of Shilang Mansion or Hanchen Academy to sign up and take the initiative to participate in city construction and housing construction.
They filled their bellies, and after a night of careful consideration, most of them figured out that if they wanted to be accepted by Hancheng, they had to change from refugees to Hancheng people. Moreover, this time the Municipal Government has increased its publicity efforts. With the government's notices and guarantees, the refugees have more confidence and confidence.
Of course, among the rangers and casual cultivators who had made up their minds to come and eat for free for seven days, almost no one signed up. They are used to some of the routines and tricks of the Immortal Cultivation Sect and the government, and they watch with cold eyes and do not get involved easily.
Even more coldly than the rangers and casual cultivators, there are some strong men from other races such as demons, monsters, orcs who are mixed in the crowd. They are not the kind of people who have nothing to do with themselves, but are looking for opportunities to take revenge!
At this moment, Nangong He and Song Yangpeng were also eating a seafood feast in a restaurant, mingling with the crowd and sharing the table with the common people. What they didn't expect was that a familiar figure walked upstairs and appeared in their sight.
Emperor Shikun.
Emperor Shikun was not alone, and he was not walking at the front. In front of him were a noble prince and an old man with profound and unpredictable cultivation. Emperor Shikun was not walking at the back. Behind him, there was also a noble young master, and there was also an old woman with unpredictable cultivation.
Nangong He and Song Yang Peng didn't dare to show anything strange. Just like ordinary casual cultivators, they left quickly after eating.
After leaving the restaurant, the two of them carefully went to an alley where civilians gathered and squatted.
"Why does the old man walking in front of Di Shikun seem familiar to me?" Nangong He said in a message.
Songyang Peng said: "If I remember correctly, it was the old guy from Tianduyuan, the 'madman Hengtian' who challenged Jianxue Mountain back then! This alarmed Emperor Ji Yuan, who took action personally, and finally sealed Jianxue Mountain. Designated as a forbidden area!”
"Not bad, not bad. I remembered it. Although we were young at that time, we still have fresh memories!" Nangong He said.
Songyang Peng thought deeply: "Originally, we planned to help Li Xiu when he was in need. We wanted to follow him to pick up meat to eat, but we did not hesitate to disobey the clan elders and stay in Hancheng! But we didn't expect that he could defeat masters from all clans by himself. We didn't even think about it. Opportunity! Even powerful men like Qi Yunjun and Niu Mojun from the demon clan fled in panic with only demon pills left. They are so powerful! It seems that we have to change our plan!"
"I think so too. I estimate that sending important information to Li Xiu will also gain his favor?" Nangong He said.
"It makes sense! He is brave enough, strong enough, and courageous enough to actually dare to open a seven-day feast in the city! Even ordinary people can get his seven-day hospitality and share the monster meat. Experts like us , he has no reason to turn him away! But no matter how strong he is, if the enemy is playing dirty tricks, he can still get his life! Hengtian is a dangerous person, and it is inconvenient for us to provoke him. I think we can use Di Shikun to find out about the two The identity of this noble young master and their purpose of entering the city in disguise!"
"It's possible, but you have to plan a little, otherwise if we are found out, Emperor Shikun will kill us both!"
Before dawn, Li Xiu and Pang Gu had already left the academy.
At dawn, Pongu received a messenger from Jove.
Logically speaking, if Qiao Fu made an important discovery, he would directly use the void magic weapon to open the meson, and come back to report the message much faster than the letter eagle. Using the letter eagle to deliver the message shows that the situation is not urgent, and Pang should not be disappointed. Gu and Li Xiuqi rushed there at night.
In fact it is.
But both Pang Gu and Li Xiu knew what Fenglei Pavilion represented, and they did not dare to take any disturbance lightly. They both left avatars in the academy to confuse the enemy's hearing and hearing, and their real bodies quickly escaped. In about an hour, the two successfully fought with Joff will and.
"You're here!" Qiaofu appeared in a rain forest, which had already been covered with heavy snow, but for a strong man like him, sleeping in the snow for three days was no problem.
Li Xiu discovered that this rain forest was still hundreds of miles away from Fenglei Pavilion. Looking around, he could only vaguely see the outline of the ridge of Fenglei Pavilion, appearing at the end of the horizon. If the altitude of this rainforest was not high enough, It's so high that you can't see it at all.
"What did you find?" Pang Gu asked.
"It doesn't seem to be an important discovery. I didn't expect you to come here in person. Wouldn't it be very dangerous if the enemy causes trouble in Hancheng?" Qiao Fu said rather dissatisfied.
"It doesn't matter, we can solve the problem here as soon as possible and go back as soon as possible!" Pang Gu said: "There is no big or small matter in Fenglei Pavilion. Whether it is the seducer or the giant of the dark world, they are extremely cunning! If Fenglei Pavilion is really selected this time, it will be our county. If there is a second soul-nurturing place, Guhun will probably come here in person!"
Qiao Fu said with a serious face: "If that's the case, the three of us alone would probably be able to hit an egg against a stone!"
Pang Gu said: "As long as we can defeat them one by one before they gather together, with our strength, we can turn passivity into initiative, plow the courtyard, sweep holes, and then destroy Fenglei Pavilion!"
At this time, Li Xiu finished observing the surroundings and came over and said: "Dean Pang is absolutely right! If the seductive soul really comes, I will deal with it. I caught Xuanyuan Dragon last time and the seductive soul stayed in Xuanyuanlong Niwan." The will in the palace was broken by me. It would be better if he didn't come. If he comes in person, I will make him pay a heavy price! As for the other nobles, it is impossible to send the main force to come here openly. First, this is Illegal activities, secondly, if their main force comes to Shangbei County to expand, their strength in the capital will be weak, and they may be embezzled by other nobles, and the gain outweighs the loss! Therefore, even if they continue to send giant-level masters, the greatest possibility is from From other prefectures and counties, the demons that come may be stronger than last time. I don’t know which clan the demon king I killed last time belonged to. He died in Fenglei Pavilion. It is impossible not to take revenge. "
