Chapter 118 The Will of Death
An abandoned post station more than 30 miles north of Longsnake Mountain.

Grandma Sun's grandson, 'Sun Xian' who has turned into an immortal, opened his eyes and sighed: "It's a pity that neither the Baiyang Sect nor the Holy Fire Sect will cooperate with us, and I haven't done my best with my immortal body, otherwise This time, Dragon Snake Mountain will not only be closed for three months."

At this moment, 'Sun Xian' looked full of energy and blood, full of vigor, just like any healthy and lively child, without the slightest abnormality.

This is the appearance of a truly undead person, and only after countless deaths will they gradually become living corpses.

Beside 'Sun Xian', a girl with blond hair and blue eyes said: "Master, haven't you done your best in your immortal body?"

'Sun Xian' shook his head: "According to my fortune-telling, the fate of this body is very bad, and it will suffer a tragic death this year due to the impact of the feng shui evil spirit in Qingyang County. It is a good stove.

But he fell into the water and died. Although he died violently, the resentment in his heart was far less strong than I expected. "

"What's wrong?"

……

Yongan 15 years, September.

Li Xian, the censor, was ordered to be the governor of the Jiubian Army Town. He successively cleared the Zhang and farmed the fields, checked the soldiers' salaries, and reformed the horse administration.

As a result, the soldiers mutinied. Not only did the governor Li Xian be severely injured, but the imperial censor impeached Li Xian for using the name of Qingzhang to garrison the fields for killing the people, exploiting the squires, and embezzling the soldiers' wages, forcing the soldiers to rebel.

In the end, Li Xian was exiled into the army, and the soldiers who led the mutiny were all executed afterwards. Only all the policies remained the same, and the Nine Frontiers Town seemed to be still the same.

……

Chu Qiguang, who has been building Yaoyin Village these days, listened to the information sent by Qiao Zhi, and sighed: "Arrogant and arrogant, I don't know how to advance or retreat. The heads of the Nine Frontiers Town are really used to being the emperor, and they have no brains." Yes, they are dead."

Qiao Zhi glanced at Chu Qiguang in surprise: "You can guess this? They have two great Martial Gods, and now people inside and outside the court are saying that Wu Ge made a bad move and forced the Nine Sides too much."

Chu Qiguang said: "The governor is a big official in the frontier. Beating the governor and mutiny by the soldiers must have touched the bottom line of Emperor Yong'an. Even if we temporarily compromise to stabilize them now, we will never let them go in the future. You say Tell me, how did they die in the end?"

Qiao Zhi told what he knew, and Chu Qiguang's eyes were clear: "So that's the case. Wu Siqi knew that the Nine Frontier Army Town was unruly, so he deliberately sent Li Xian to beat him to death."

"This can make Emperor Yong'an completely give up on Nine Sides and make up his mind to reform the military town. On the other hand, it can make Nine Sides even more arrogant, and in the future, they will plunder in the mutual market and make enemies on all sides."

Chu Qiguang squeezed his chin and thought: "Wu Siqi knows that Nine Sides are deeply rooted, and the rich families in the north are inextricably linked with them, so he has no intention of successfully reforming Nine Sides now."

"What he thinks is that after a year or two of the mutual market, many wealthy families in the north have benefited from this trade and formed a new interest group. Let them turn against the Nine Sides for the benefit of trade, so that he can use his strength to fight.

And one or two years later, he himself has suppressed dissidents, promoted his cronies, and completely controlled the court.

At that time, from the emperor to the court and then to the localities, everyone will be in the Nine Frontier Army Town, and he will take advantage of the trend and go down in one fell swoop.

The silver earned by Jiubian in the next two years is equivalent to the temporary deposit of the imperial court with them. "

Qiao Zhi listened to Chu Qiguang's analysis, and said blankly, "Ah? Is that so?"

"In a year or two, I should be able to participate in it." Chu Qiguang thought about the situation in the north, his eyes swept over the Yaoyin Village in front of him.

It has been more than a month since he moved to Yaoyin Village with more than 60 monsters.

In the first ten days, Chu Qiguang spent almost every day here.

At the beginning, more than 60 monsters were quite hostile to the 15 old people from Nanjian Village, but after Chu Qiguang inspired the old people to become demons, the monsters regarded the old people as monsters and got along peacefully.

Although the old people have seen Chu Qiguang's appearance, they don't know Chu Qiguang's identity. After seeing Chu Qiguang's demonized appearance, they followed other monsters and called him Master Tongtian.

Under the leadership of Chu Qiguang, the old people led more than 60 monsters to officially start land reclamation.

The arable land area selected at the beginning was selected by the old people and Jin Ji together.

The old people are all veterans of farming, and Jinji's farming skills learned in Dazhu are even better than them, so he quickly selected a place in the basin as the target of land reclamation.

The physical strength of the monsters is already good. After the old people were strengthened by the foundation-building method of the sky monster, they were taught the Tianling body training by Chu Qiguang.

It does not require them to have any fighting power, but only requires them to be able to display martial arts in their work, which not only increases efficiency but also improves the effect of cultivation.

Qiao Zhi watched the old people go down with a hoe to loosen the topsoil and clear the weeds. Every move has the charm of martial arts. It is not only exercised in the work, but also improved the efficiency of the work. It's martial arts...but it's still more pleasing to the eye when farming."

But in fact, the monsters at the beginning were a little careless about farming. This is a habit that has been developed for generations and countless years. Except for Jinji from Dazhu, these monsters have no habit or tradition of farming.

So while cooking meat and rice, Chu Qiguang announced that the [-] monsters who cut down the most trees every day can eat meat and eat as much as they want, and the remaining monsters can only eat bread and wild vegetables.

Regarding the stimulation of being able to eat meat, there are old-fashioned and little-earthy dog ​​monsters taking the lead, which immediately greatly increased the enthusiasm of the monsters.

Then Chu Qiguang continued to use food to guide the monsters to cut wood, weed, and loosen the soil, just like when training Baimi and the others, so that they gradually got used to getting food through their own labor.

Then Chu Qiguang began to teach the monsters to count, and divided them into five groups, with three old people leading more than ten monsters in each group.

The next step is to rank the five working groups according to their daily workload. The top three can eat meat, while the bottom two can only eat white noodles and wild vegetables.

A few days later, Chu Qiguang asked them to choose their own group leader. In order to be able to eat meat, each group selected the old man who could improve their efficiency the most.

Then Chu Qiguang began to set assessments, performance, rewards and punishments... With the stimulation of food, the supervisor of Chongming Bird, and the guarantee of force, the efficiency of the monsters began to increase exponentially.

They began to divide their labor into different tasks such as logging, land preparation, building huts, cooking and cooking, and collecting excrement.

According to Jinji's future plan, composting, collection of plant ash, and digging of irrigation ditches are still needed...to prepare for the next sowing.

In this step-by-step guidance, the monsters are getting more and more used to division of labor and cooperation, and work and eat together.

Qiao Zhi cursed in his heart while watching: "The evil performance has finally come..."

Next, Chu Qiguang began to distribute the living corpses... Each working group was assigned a few living corpses, watching the living corpses being put on the plow, and then the smaller harpies in the group led them to start plowing After the ground, Chu Qiguang had already thought about the thousands of living corpses in Meishan.

At the same time, he wanted more and more to catch an immortal demon to learn how to manipulate living corpses.

Zheng Sanshui, the head of Nanjian Village who took the elixir at the beginning, has also appeared in it, and the method of building the foundation of the sky demon can't stop the elixir from changing him.

In Qiao Zhi's mind, he recalled the scene before the other party was completely turned into a living corpse. It was obviously just a death that can be seen everywhere in this world, but Chu Qiguang took it seriously and made all the monsters gather here.

……

"Mr. Zheng, your situation has reached its limit. I want to ask you now, do you want to be cremated, buried, or continue to exist as a living corpse and continue to make contributions to the village?"

Of course, Zheng Sanshui had already made a choice about this. For him and the old people in Nanjian Village, living corpses were not scary, and even represented some kind of hope. Said: "Let me continue to accompany the children..."

"The spirit of Lichang Zheng will remain in his body, and continue to fight for the construction of the village. Please pay respect to his self-dedication spirit! He will still burn himself to illuminate the village until he dies. This is The will of death in our Yaoyin Village!"

"Where death flies, corpses live. The corpses will continue to illuminate the village and allow new life to take root."
