Seeing the hesitation between Zhou Yu and Hou Wangtong's brows as they left, Bai Lang was very satisfied.
Regarding the place to avoid disaster, the situation now has deviated somewhat from Bailang's original plan. Two groups of people went forward and forwarded, transporting two large ships of food, and at the same time fourteen brothers with large crossbows were sent. A lot of news about Daomen Village also came back.
That was not an ordinary bandit village at all.
Now that Bailang has paid rental fees to those on the opposite side, they are recruiting more troops, and the entire village is "in full swing" in the words of the waist knives sent there.
That kind of weird scene can't be seen anywhere else.
Usually one or two strong laborers are found and they bring three or four people with their families. This would be seen as a burden elsewhere, but in Daomen Village everyone was happy, with no hint of impatience or disgust. There will even be elderly people in the cottage helping to build houses, or repairing and cleaning previously vacant houses. And as the number of people in the village increases, a feeling of a village in the mountains emerges.
The previous news was enough to make Bailang look at Daomen Village in a new light. Among them, he felt that the most outrageous one was the alchemist who was most likely to exist in Daomen Village.
Now that new news is coming one by one, especially when the village mentioned in the latest news seems to be prosperous and has the atmosphere of a village, Bailang suddenly realizes that it may be that Daomen Village deliberately recruits this kind of dragster. The reason is to use strong labor instead of killing more familiar thieves and bandits.
Why recruit so many people who can't be killed? Bailang gradually gained a taste of it based on the geographical conditions and advantages of Daomen Village.
This is deliberately absorbing the population!
There is a depression in Daomen Village suitable for farming. If it is fully cultivated and taken care of carefully, it can easily support six to seven hundred people throughout the year. And manpower is needed to cultivate these lands and to care for them. We can't let the combat forces in the village farm the land, right? Since we want to absorb the population, isn't it a win-win situation to absorb these honest strong laborers who take care of their families? You can control each other's heel and recruit labor to farm the land.
Then here comes the problem. As a bandit, shouldn't he make a living by robbing a village? Why would you think of being self-reliant and absorbing the population? What is this for?
Fortunately, the people in Daomen Village are not ready to turn their backs and drive away the men sent by Bailang. Instead, there are many temptations. They don't want to let go of Bailang, the "big financier", and hope to continue recruiting troops by relying on Bailang's "lease fees". At the same time, I wanted to find out the details of Bailang. He was probably also thinking about those big crossbows that Bai Lang deliberately showed to the other party.
There was a trial over at Daomen Village, hoping to meet Bailang. Of course, they didn't know Bailang's identity, they only knew that he was the big boss behind Qiu Chongxi.
However, Bailang has no idea of direct contact with Daomen Village, at least for now, he has never thought about it. The situation is far from being in contact with Daomen Village. Because now Bai Lang is unsure whether he can hold the opponent with his current strength. If you can't hold it, all your previous efforts will become someone else's wedding dress, and your efforts will be in vain.
In addition to his own cultivation, Bailang now also needs more helpers at the level of Qi practitioners to improve his own strength.
If you had this kind of idea elsewhere, you would have to spend money to hire them from casual cultivators. But Bailang had a different strategy. He prepared to teach himself.
In the past month or so, others thought that what Bailang was most concerned about was the fact that the City Lord's Mansion had transferred the territory and properties of the Xicheng Sword Hall to the hands of the Dongcheng Sword Hall, as well as the fact that he was being recruited by Liu Jianyu's command of the Yuzhong Left Army. But in fact, this matter has not been the focus of Bailang's mind for more than a month. During this time, he is more concerned about the cultivation status of his younger brothers and sisters and Yang Xiu.
Through continuous verification during this period, Bailang determined the correct usage of his [preaching and teaching].
For people like Bai Yan who are talented and very talented, [Preaching and Teaching] is not suitable for common use. It can only be used when there are difficulties or bottlenecks to help the other party overcome difficulties. . This is the incredible ability to use [Preaching and Teaching] to directly digitize the effect of teaching.
Take Bai Yan as an example. Whenever she encounters a practice difficulty that she doesn't understand, she just needs to come to Bai Lang and Bai Lang will tell her the relevant things again, even though she actually knows these things and does not involve her difficulties. Core, but the data-based attribute panel still directly determines that Bai Lang's teaching will definitely achieve results. If it doesn't work once, it will be twice, if it doesn't work twice, it will be three times. Otherwise, Bai Yan will feel like this "after hearing it so many times, it seems really Gradually, I felt a sense of enlightenment and I realized the solution to my own difficulties.
And for people like Yang Xiu who have very poor talent and cannot reach the basic threshold of Qi Practitioner practice, Bailang's [Preaching and Teaching] is an indispensable road stick.
After Yang Xiu was dragged into the threshold of Qi Practitioner by Bai Lang using [Preaching and Teaching], he still practiced diligently with all his strength when he returned. But the effect can be summed up in four words: twice the result with half the effort.
But even this could not suppress Yang Xiu's ecstasy and enthusiasm for being able to practice. Especially when he finally established the first meridian circulation of spiritual energy on his Dantian under Bai Lang's drag, he cried with joy and was extremely excited.
However, Bai Yan can't ignore it. Bai Lang, who is not as talented as Yang Xiu, must take good care of him. He spends half an hour every day to teach, practice, and revise. These three processes will all be changed due to digitalization. Bring intuitive progress to Yang Xiu.
[Yang Xiu: 18% of Qi practitioners have not yet started]
This speed is not slow anymore. According to this speed of practice, in two or three months Yang Xiu will be able to surpass the "uninitiated" and become a serious "early stage of Qi-inducing realm" Qi practitioner.
However, Bai Lang estimated that this speed would start to slow down after Yang Xiu entered the early stages of the Qi Entraining Realm. Unless his own cultivation can make a new breakthrough in the near future, he can continue to maintain the realm gap between him and Yang Xiu.
In addition to preaching to Yang Xiu, Bailang has recently made a new attempt at [preaching and teaching].
Previously, Bai Lang asked Yang Xiu to look for those waist knives or street wanderers with good martial arts talents in the sword hall. Yang Xiu also understood what Bai Lang meant, so he quickly found five people. They are all young, street wanderers under twenty. In Yang Xiu's words, these five people are almost the same as him in terms of talent alone.
What Bailang wants to try is to see if his [preaching and teaching] can teach multiple people at the same time.
The results proved that Yang Xiu's statement was correct. The talents of these five people were similar to his. They all had good martial arts talents, but their Qi training talents were not enough to meet the minimum requirements.
Then, after Bailang's [Preaching and Instructing] status reduced the Qi training threshold by 30% for these five, they all stumbled like Yang Xiu that day, but they really completed a complete breath and successfully stepped into Qi training. The threshold of a scholar.
This is no longer a confirmation, but it directly proves Bailang's previous thoughts. He can use [preaching and teaching] to change people's lives against the will of heaven, and even recruit batches of Qi practitioners in batches.
Even if they are just entry-level Qi practitioners, so what? That is also a serious Qi practitioner!
