Chapter 145 Choosing a Land(1/2)

Among the four major families, the Ma family likes land real estate the most and does the most land reclamation in new lands. Ma Wu has also seen land reclamation and has some experience.

But I have seen it, Ma Wu has never really experienced land reclamation. With the strength of his family, there is no need for him to take risks. This kind of thing is done by hiring specialized land reclamation people.

Even now, Ma Wu doesn't want to take risks. He prefers to let Zuo Wugang bring two supports to open up wasteland.

But Li Banfeng disagreed.

This new land, in addition to being good for practice, was also a refuge for Li Banfeng and Ma Wu. Before Zuo Wugang completely gained trust, Li Banfeng didn't want him to know the location of the new land.

The same goes for Zhen Jincheng and Cao Zhida, neither of whom can follow.

Seeing Li Banfeng's firm attitude, Ma Wu had no choice but to agree.

In fact, the matter of land reclamation depends more on luck. Ma Wu feels that the risk is very high. This is the experience summed up from the Ma family's experience of land reclamation. Speaking from extreme cases, there are examples of first-level cultivators who have succeeded in reclaiming land alone.

It has happened before.

Moreover, when encountering danger, the most you can do is give up land reclamation. There is still a chance of escape, but within a radius of a hundred miles, you can no longer reclaim land.

"In Prostate, as far as I know, the person with the most experience in land reclamation is private detective Da Boyens. He once helped our family purchase offerings. I can still remember some of the types and quantities. These things are easy to buy, but we

You have to choose a location first.”

Li Banfeng had two options, one was the wasteland between Hulugou and Tiexian River, and the other was the wasteland between Xiaohuangquan and Orange Orchard.

The two finally chose the wasteland between the small yellow spring and the orange grove.

It is easy to replenish food here, and the oranges in the orange orchard are edible, and Ma Wu also knows this.

From Li Banfeng's point of view, the owner of the orange garden has a good relationship with Li Banfeng, and they can take care of him at critical moments.

After choosing a location, the rest is about Ma Wu’s practice.

Girls are not allowed. Ma Wu also said that the previous Jin Yuan Dan was enough for him to consume for a while.

Li Banfeng also gave Ma Wu seven Xuan Chi Pills, which would help Ma Wu survive for a few more days in case of an accident.

All expenses were prepared, and Ma Wu chose a pair of smart shoes with thick soles and deep tread that could nearly double his usual speed, and set off with Li Banfeng.

Before leaving, Ma Wu entrusted Lanyang Village to Xiaochuanzi and Zuo Wugang.

Leave it to Ogawako to take care of daily matters, and leave it to Zuo Wugang to deal with special situations.

Xiaochuanzi was a little worried: "Fifth Master, I don't know a few Chinese characters, so you ask me to take care of business. Isn't this a joke?"

"This is no joke," Ma Wu said with great confidence in Xiaochuanzi, "It's already the New Year's Eve, and the hunters are all celebrating the New Year at home, so there isn't much business to begin with.

Besides, you usually accompany me to purchase and ship goods, and you have learned a lot of skills, so it’s time to practice your skills."

Ma Wu really trusted Xiaochuanzi, but he couldn't trust Zuo Wugang.

Through these days of contact, Ma Wu discovered that Zuo Wugang was a good supporter. As long as there was trouble in the village, Ma Wu would give an order and Zuo Wugang would immediately settle the matter.

But if Ma Wu hadn't given the order, things would have been a bit troublesome. Zuo Wugang was not very good at making decisions.

Walking to the entrance of the village, Li Banfeng saw Xiao Genzi collecting gold juice.

It was freezing cold, and it was hard to find golden juice. Xiao Genzi carried two buckets on his back, sweating profusely, and searched everywhere.

Li Banfeng asked in a low voice: "Has he reached a higher level?"

Ma Wu nodded and said: "Yesterday he told me that he felt that he had reached a higher level and that his cultivation was sensitive, so he must be right."

"Even if he goes to the first floor, he can only carry one bucket. If he goes to the second floor, he can only carry two buckets. Isn't this what the salesman said himself?"

Ma Wudao: "Xiao Genzi said that if you carry an extra bucket, you can save more time."

Li Banfeng praised repeatedly: "This kid has a lot of potential."

Because I had Ma Wu with me, I walked a little slower along the way, but with sufficient preparation in advance, there were basically no obstacles in Hulugou.

Hongnigang was not bad either. Li Banfeng walked through it once and found a basically safe route. With the traveler's memory of the direction, he led Ma Wu through the swamp smoothly.

Tiexian River is a bit troublesome, Ma Wu doesn’t have any flying equipment.

Li Banfeng has it. He has the judge's pen given to him by those two gangsters.

He drew a circle with the judge's pen on the spot, and Li Banfeng and Ma Wu waited in the circle for the judge's pen to respond.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the tip of the judge's pen trembled.

For ordinary people, this would be considered a response. Li Banfeng had the ability to discern spiritual sounds. He could not only see the pen trembling, but also hear the judge's pen speaking.

"Where to go?"

It's just two words. These two words are spoken so softly that you can't tell them apart unless you listen carefully.

Is this the magic weapon for lazy cultivation?

Li Banfeng pointed the tip of his pen to the other side of the river, but the judge's pen stopped moving again.

After waiting for another half an hour, the tip of the judge's pen trembled again: "Stand still."

Still two words.

The two of them waited for a while, and then a cloud of dust slowly rose up from the ground beneath their feet, carrying Li Banfeng and Ma Wu into the air.

How high did it fly?

Less than two feet.

It flies almost close to the ground.

The entire Tiexian River is full of iron worms.

Each one twists and turns, all crawling under your feet.

Ma Wu's hair stood on end: "Brother Li, is this magic weapon of yours reliable? We can't fall, otherwise it will be over."

Li Banfeng didn't dare to say that the judge's pen was reliable. He flew slowly and leisurely all the way to the other side, and the two of them were sweating for several days in the cold weather.

Ma Wu was shocked and asked: "Which Taoist magic weapon is this?"

Li Banfeng was about to talk about this: "Brother Ma, do you know that you are too lazy to cultivate this Taoism?"

Ma Wu nodded: "I know, this sect is special. The secret of spiritual practice lies in the word laziness. They have three maxims that they often recite."

"Which three sentences?"

"First, don't sit when you can lie down; second, don't stand if you can sit; third, don't walk if you can stand!"

Li Banfeng was stunned for a while, put away the judge's pen, and thought for a long time: "Can this Taoist sect be defeated?"

"You can't say you can fight, and you can't say you can't fight..." Ma Wu didn't know how to describe it, "Lazy cultivators are rare. I saw it once when I was fifteen years old.

At that time, in Haichiling, a lazy cultivator wanted to fight Shi Xiu for life and death. The two made an appointment to meet at a place. Lazy cultivator was an hour late, and Shi Xiu was so angry that he scolded his mother.

When the two of them were about to start fighting, Lazy Xiu kept staring at Shi Xiu and yawned non-stop."

"Then what?"

"Lazy Xiu said he didn't want to fight, and Shixiu yawned with him, unable to open his eyes. He cursed a few times, and said he wouldn't fight anymore. The two of them went to find a place to sleep, and that's how it ended."

Li Banfeng stopped and turned to look at Ma Wu: "You rich people, do you call this a battle of life and death?"

"That's not what I said, it's what they said that it takes two to decide whether to live or die."

There is such a way in the world!

Li Banfeng was familiar with the road, so Ma Wu reluctantly followed him. They walked for six full days before reaching Xiaohuangquan.

Ma Wu's shoes did increase his speed, but Huan Xiu's body was too weak and he had to have enough rest time every day.

Li Banfeng was not in a hurry. He set up two tents and the two of them rested separately. He took a Jin Yuan Dan every day and needed time to recover, and he went back to stay with him every night.

When crossing Xiaohuangquan, Li Banfeng was very cautious and explained the rules to Ma Wu in detail.

When they finally walked onto the path, Ma Wu was so frightened that his hair stood on end. Li Banfeng held a feather duster and walked calmly. The wind direction was always southward, which proved that everything was fine.

After walking more than a hundred miles and walking for more than five hours, fear and exhaustion were mixed. When they reached the wilderness, Ma Wu lay on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

After resting for two hours, the two continued on their way and selected a site to open up wasteland next to a pine forest more than thirty miles away from the orange orchard.

Being close to the pine forest will help you search for building materials. If you build a wooden house in the future, at least there will be no shortage of wood.

It is close to the orange orchard, which is convenient for food supply, but of course it cannot be too close. Li Banfeng does not want to offend the owner of the orchard, nor does he want hunters who go to the orange orchard to notice this new land.

Ma Wu took out a small table from his luggage and began to measure the location of the altar table.

This is a crucial part and must be operated by Ma Wu personally.

A land god is in charge of a land with a radius of hundreds of miles. The territories are connected to each other, but the boundaries are invisible.

If the offering table is placed in the wrong position, on the boundary of the territory of the two earth gods, and attracts the attention of the two earth gods at the same time, this will be troublesome. Ma Wu cannot even imagine what kind of trouble it will cause.

Ma Wu had chosen plots of land several times with his father and knew the key points.

He grabbed a piece of soil, tested the texture, moved ten steps to the left, grabbed another piece of soil, put it in his hands and kneaded it carefully.

After testing the soil in dozens of places like this, Ma Wu roughly got a sense of proportion.

"Brother Li, the soil in these places is soft and sticky. They should belong to the same land god. Let's choose the land here."

Li Banfeng nodded, and together with Ma Wu, he set up the offering table and offerings, and lit the incense candles.
