Chapter six hundred and twenty-seven windfall! Rescue decree
"That bear demon is so cunning, I almost let him escape. Fortunately, senior brother, you arranged a secret move."
The little ghost boy was frightened when he saw the spirit of the bear demon captured by Marshal Guan. He followed the old man to travel through the counties outside Guan. He knew that the wilderness was dangerous and that beating a snake without killing it would easily lead to trouble.
Chu Chen nodded slightly, but there was not much joy on his face. Instead, he glanced around with his consciousness and frowned.
Somehow, he always felt like he was being watched.
"Little devil, do you think there are any signs of disaster in me?"
The little kid shook his head repeatedly: "Only the energy of small disasters arises and dies, and it can't even stir up waves. Where did the disaster come from? Senior brother, what's wrong?"
"nothing."
Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt a little uncomfortable, so he hurriedly cleaned the battlefield and fled far away.
Golden Toad Palace is hundreds of miles away.
Chu Chen and Xiao Guizai found a cave and took stock of their harvest.
"Hahaha, senior brother, we have become rich, let's see how many treasures we have."
The little devil was very excited.
A faint smile appeared on Chu Chen's face, and he took out a palm-sized dark green wooden heart and an animal skin bag from his robe.
The storage spell of the wild demon outside the pass, the storage magic weapon is simple and crude, and the restrictions are not complicated.
Not long after, Chu Chen easily broke through the storage restrictions of the tree demon Mu Xin, revealing all the treasures inside.
"Brother, how are you doing?"
The little devil was itching unbearably.
With a thought, Chu Chen directly took out all the treasures.
Jade coins, spiritual herbs and elixirs, spiritual minerals and precious materials, animal skins and bones, and all kinds of sundries piled up into a hill, the scene was extremely spectacular.
"Oh~"
The little ghost boy had a big mouth, his face was full of excitement, and he pounced directly on him.
Chu Chen smiled and packed it up with the little devil.
After taking stock, Chu Chen's face was quite excited.
The jade coins alone are worth nearly 100,000. In addition, spiritual herbs, elixirs, minerals, materials, animal skins and bones, and other natural and earthly treasures are also worth almost 50,000 jade coins.
"Senior brother, have we recovered our capital?"
The little kid swallowed.
"Not only did I get back the money I paid to redeem the person, I also made a fortune."
Chu Chen took the captured jade coins, heavenly materials and earthly treasures back to the Bracelet Immortal Mansion, erased the storage restrictions on the dark green wooden heart, and put them into the Bracelet Immortal Mansion.
Then, his eyes fell on the animal skin bag - this was the harvest from killing a fifth-grade bear demon.
It's a pity to say that the fifth-grade bear demon had more than one storage magic weapon. After the bear demon's soul was captured by Marshal Guan and he knew he was going to die, he forcibly destroyed his own storage magic weapon.
This animal skin bag is not a personal storage weapon, it probably belongs to the force behind it.
There are also three large characters "Palace of Ten Thousand Beasts" printed on the bag.
Chu Chen had heard of the name of the "Palace of Ten Thousand Beasts", also known as the "Alliance of Ten Thousand Beasts". It was a local demon force that spanned the southwest states. There were several demons with great supernatural powers who were in charge, and they were extremely powerful.
"Fortunately, I took precautions and didn't let the soul of the bear demon escape. Otherwise, it would have been a troublesome thing. Maybe this made me uneasy at the time."
Chu Chen murmured to himself.
After about half a stick of incense, the animal skin bag was successfully opened.
There are no natural treasures or clutter inside, only a full two hundred thousand jade coins. It is very clean.
After some counting, he found that he had seized a total of nearly 350,000 jade coins this time, which was several times the 80,000 jade coins he spent on redeeming people. He did not lose money but made a profit.
"Brother, I can't count. Are we going to make a fortune this time?"
The little ghost guessed that he had made a big fortune, but he couldn't figure it out, which made him very anxious.
"Yes, I've made a fortune."
Chu Chen was in a good mood.
A horse will not be fat without night grass, and a man will not be rich without windfall.
For a moment, he remembered the experience of playing a certain Xianxia game in his previous life. When he was short of money, he went to the auction to rob, and he got rid of poverty and became rich overnight.
The little devil has been waiting for so long, just waiting for this sentence of "making a fortune".
Hearing this, it couldn't bear it anymore, its legs became weak unconsciously, and it fell to its knees with a "thump".
"Dong dong dong!"
"Congratulations to my senior brother for making a fortune, please give me some fragrant food. Senior brother, please eat meat. Please give me some soup."
"Dong dong dong!"
"Okay, I'll reward you with one hundred and four elephant incense. Don't kowtow, the gravel will fly away."
"Senior brother is so generous, hahaha, I have never been so generous as a senior brother in my life..."
Chu Chen dismissed the little devil with a smile and was in a good mood.
In addition to jade coins and the harvest of heavenly materials and earthly treasures, he killed two demons in a row. Although there was no magic method revealed in the Heart Temple, his meritorious deeds increased by three levels, and the total meritorious deeds reached six hundred and sixty-three.
A sixth-grade tree demon performs one meritorious deed; a fifth-grade bear demon performs two meritorious deeds.
His merits were a bit lower than when he was slaying demons before. The main reason was that the merits of the redeemed person had suddenly increased by eight levels.
Within a day, the first practice is the best, and subsequent practices become more and more difficult.
Completing eleven practices in one day will be extremely rewarding.
The Buddha said that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.
Saving hundreds of people at one time is a great meritorious deed. The deeds of saving the world and saving people are more substantial than killing demons. It is a good way to practice meritorious deeds and accumulate merits.
Of course, rescuing our compatriots is not just about redeeming them, just snatching them back. Next, the most important issue is the resettlement of our human compatriots.
These four hundred people are easy to arrange. Guangling Mountain under Chu Chen can arrange it casually. Anyway, under the rule of Taoist Feihong, the mountain god, the people also need to provide incense. Even if he does not arrange it, the heaven will make corresponding arrangements in the future.
However, rescuing more people involves very practical problems.
If you want to accomplish something, no matter what your starting point is, it is not easy to accomplish it and do it well.
Everything needs to be realistic.
Rescuing fellow humans is not just as simple as rescuing from monsters.
The Central Earth is protected by the Nine Provinces barrier, and the mountains and rivers are enshrined in gods. People live in various places like a dot, and a large number of people can be accommodated at will.
The prefectures and counties outside the pass are different. The common people live in cities and can survive only with the protection of strong people. It is difficult to survive alone in the harsh wilderness.
Therefore, the biggest difficulty in rescuing the people from the hands of the demons is not the cost of redemption or snatching people from the hands of the demons, but the Chinese side.
Only if the Celestial Empire continues to invest in border counties and counties, open up wasteland, build cities, and have more and stronger power can it protect more people.
Based on this, the act of rescuing fellow humans from demons can continue.
Otherwise, it is just empty talk and has no intention.
“I don’t know where Yunzhou’s rescue law is at now.”
Chu Chen murmured to himself.
He had heard it mentioned before by his master, Taoist Master Xu Ping, who had experienced in the wilderness.
When some barren prefectures and counties expand their territory and are temporarily short of population and unable to forcibly immigrate from central China, they will issue relevant reward laws to rescue their compatriots to expand their population and take root in the area.
After all, except for the monks who go out for training resources and opportunities to experience, ordinary people are not willing to come to this barren place with poor mountains and rivers, full of dangers and harsh conditions.
When the Celestial Empire was running the Great Kyushu, many states and counties briefly issued relief decrees to expand their population and take root in the wilderness.
At the moment when the Celestial Empire is ambitious and expanding its territory, a rescue decree is probably being prepared, even if it has not yet been issued.
Chu Chen had not been exposed to such matters before and did not have time to inquire about the relevant situation.
Now he was interested.
Thinking of this, Chu Chen didn't stay outside for long, and headed straight for Wanquan County in the clouds and mist.
