Chapter 45 The murderer dies

In a cave at Zhongfeng in Hawan.

Pearls hang from the ceiling, and their soft light covers every corner of the spacious cave.

Hundreds of bookshelves are scattered throughout the cave, and each bookshelf has a different number.

Animal skins, scrolls, bamboo slips, jade, books, etc. are placed on the bookshelf in categories.

This cave looks like a small library.

Zhang Ke was currently sitting in the middle of the cave, with a long desk placed around his body, and some unfolded scrolls and books piled randomly on the desk.

Stacks of runic papers filled with handwriting were stacked next to Zhang Ke, and beside them, volumes of books were bound and stacked neatly.

Wisps of smoke rise from the crane's mouth stove in the corner, and the faint smoke condenses into different shapes above the crane's mouth stove.

When the smoke condenses into various flowers, the refreshing fragrance of different flowers will be released in the cave. When the smoke condenses into clouds, rain and dew, a slightly cool breath will fill the cave.

This incense is called 'Mirage' incense, which is best for regulating the spirit. It was created by Ding Xiaoxiao based on ancient prescriptions.

At this time, Zhang Ke was facing the translucent virtual images of two adults from the ‘Mountain and Sea Realm’, a man and a woman.

This virtual image is composed of various interlaced grids of rune lines. The skin, tendons, bones, blood, nerves, five internal organs, and six internal organs are all replaced by rune array sequences of different colors.

Within the body of this virtual image, a stream of red particles moves in a specific cycle following Zhang Ke's mind.

Zhang Ke concentrated on observing every change in the particle flow.

Whenever there is a slight change, he will immediately repeat this process and make corrections until the operation is smooth and without obstruction, and then he can continue to drive the particle flow to move.

From time to time, Zhang Ke would overlap the two virtual images and carefully explore the differences between them.

After some testing, Zhang Ke wrote and recorded.

‘The 437th test of the small Zhoutian operation of the human race in the mountain and sea realm:

The internal Qi starts from the lower Dantian, goes up against the Du Meridian, goes down along the Ren Meridian, and passes through the three passes of Weilu, Jiaji, and Yuzhen, the upper, middle, and lower Dantians, and the Upper and Lower Magpie Bridges.

When the perineal circulation circulates, Qi cannot be connected, making it difficult for the Ren and Du meridians to open up and form a circulation.

After testing with different Small Zhoutian Movement Methods, the human race in this world is not suitable for the 'Yuan Qi Method' cultivation system...'

Zhang Ke paused briefly while writing here, thought for a moment, put down the pen, looked up at the bookshelf, and waved to the 'D' bookshelf.

‘…’

A bookshelf slid silently next to Zhang Ke, and then the shelves on the bookshelf spread out in a fan-shaped row, placing the volumes in a position that was most convenient for Zhang Ke.

The books on the 'D' category bookshelf are some fragments collected by Zhang Ke, mostly conjectures and deductions from some practitioners. In addition, there are also some incomplete Taoist scriptures.

Since the existing path is unavailable, Zhang Ke is ready to try a different spiritual path.

Looking through volumes of classics, he took out more than ten volumes of classics and placed them on the table.

Suddenly his hand stopped, resting on a book with half-burnt gold pages.

‘The Thoughts of Three Chakras and Seven Chakras’

Zhang Ke can no longer remember where he collected this volume of classics, but because this 'contemplation method' is unique in his understanding and development of the physical body, Zhang Ke still has a very deep memory of it.

It is a pity that this classic was severely damaged and the specific visualization method is missing.

There are so many methods that Zhang Ke can practice, so although he felt that this method was very mysterious, he didn't pay much attention to it.

At this moment, thinking about the powerful physique of the human race in this world, perhaps this method is very suitable for the practice of the human race in this world.

However, Zhang Ke couldn't help but have a headache when he saw the gold page that was quite incomplete, and it would take him an unknown amount of time to deduce it.

'Oh! Just think of it as broadening your horizons. Maybe there is some useful knowledge for you,'

Zhang Ke comforted himself, put the "Contemplation of Three Meridians and Seven Chakras" on the desk, and then waved his hand.

"Shua——!"

The fan-shaped lattice closed and returned to its original shape. Under the traction of the rune lines on the ground, the bookshelf slid back to its position silently.

At this moment, a circle of light flashed at the entrance to the cave, and Wanxiang stepped in.

"Master, I want to go to the Netherworld to play with Sister Fei'er."

Wan Xiang came to sit next to Zhang Ke and used a few fingers of both hands to open his drooped eyelids.

"It's so boring here, so sleepy."

Zhang Ke waved his hand to disperse the two virtual images in front of him, and said with a smile:

"Didn't you say that the breath of the Netherworld makes you uncomfortable? Why, do you want to fly?"

Wan Xiang was refreshed and nodded quickly:

"Yes! And the people here are too tall. They are afraid of being stepped on when walking. They also say bad things about me. I don't like them."

Zhang Ke smiled and said:

"If you don't like it, why do you go to help them put out the fire?"

Wanxiang's eyes rolled around and he said with a smile:

"Oh! I'm so greedy."

Zhang Ke reached out and flicked her forehead.

"Just keep your mouth shut. Okay, when things here are over, I'll let you go find Fei'er.

Now I want to deduce the techniques, you can watch them for me."

Wan Xiang said listlessly:

"All right!"

As she spoke, she slowly lay down on Zhang Ke's lap and dozed off.

Zhang Ke smiled and glanced at Wanxiang, moved his position to make Wanxiang lie down more comfortable, picked up the 'Three Meridians and Seven Wheels Contemplation Idea' in his hand and began to consider it carefully.

...

The winter in the 'Mountain and Sea Realm' is much colder than that in the 'Azure Realm'. I can't say that popsicles will freeze when you pee, but it's still close.

It is the strong bloodline of the creatures in this world that can withstand such harsh weather. Of course, the races that cannot adapt to the climate in this world have long since become extinct.

Now that we have a house, this winter is no longer as difficult as in the past.

Every few days, the tribe's top leaders, such as Yanhong Canker, would come to Zhang Ke to ask for some knowledge and discuss the tribe's next development plan.

For this reason, Zhang Ke felt extremely irritable. The derivation technique requires a quieter environment. The repeated attacks made it impossible for him to completely calm down his mind.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But for the development of the tribe, Zhang Ke must endure all this.

It wasn't until two months later that Zhang Ke felt that the tribe's general plan had been basically completed.

After leaving some miscellaneous comments on various aspects to the Flame Red Silkworm, he directly placed a ban on the cave where he lived and sealed it.

Flame Red Silkworm and others came to knock on the door several times but received no response, and gradually stopped coming.

Another month passed, and something happened to the Xiawan tribe.

One tribesman accidentally beat another tribesman to death while quarreling with him.

In the past, the Xiawan tribe responded to this behavior by driving out members of the tribe who killed fellow tribesmen and leaving them to fend for themselves.

But this time it's different.

After discussing with other tribal leaders, the Flame Red Silkworm promulgated the first law in the tribe.

'He who kills will die!'

After choosing a relatively good weather, in full view of the Xiawan tribe, the tribesman who killed his fellow tribesmen was beheaded in public!

When the tribesman's head was cut off from his neck, the breathing of all the people present in the Xiawan tribe stopped for a short time.

This was the first time someone from the Xiawan tribe was executed in public, which had a huge impact on the hearts of every tribe member.

From this day on, the Xiawan tribe had laws and truly had order.

As early as Zhang Ke talked about the law to Yanhong Silkworm and others, Yanhong Silkworm wanted to ask Zhang Ke for a piece of law.

But this very reasonable request was rejected by Zhang Ke.

The view he gave was that imposing laws on people is tantamount to violating people's will.

Only when we truly understand what is wrong can we formulate laws out of necessity, and only laws produced in this way can have credibility.

By the time everything recovers and spring flowers bloom, it will be a month and a half later.

The spring of this year is of extremely important significance to the Xiawan tribe.

Spring plowing!

With the farming methods passed down by Zhang Ke, Yanhong Silkworm personally led hundreds of thousands of tribesmen to cultivate fields.

In addition to some corns in this world, Zhang Ke also selected hundreds of different kinds of wheat, beans, rice, sweet potatoes and vegetable seeds from the "Dongtian".

These include 'Blood Corn', 'Essential Rice', etc., which can greatly enhance physical fitness in the blue world.

As cultivated land continues to expand, hundreds of thousands of tribesmen are no longer able to settle in one place.

Otherwise, when working every day, some tribesmen would set out early in the morning and not reach their fields by evening.

Therefore, villages surrounding the fields were naturally born.

In order to encourage the tribesmen to work, before the spring plowing, the Flame Red Silkworm promulgated three decrees in public that made everyone's blood boil.

'First: Wherever you cultivate the land, all the output belongs to you.'

'Second: The tribe will implement the monogamy system from now on, and men and women over the age of 18 can start their own families.'

'Third: Children over seven years old can go to school to study.'

The Hawan tribe finally changed the public ownership system that had been inherited for hundreds of years and allowed private ownership of items.

If these three laws made all the tribesmen cheer for them, then the subordinate laws of the three laws made the mood of many tribesmen much more complicated.

‘First: The fields will be taxed according to the standard of ‘ten taxes and one tax’, and this tax will be used for various public purposes of the tribe.’

'Second: The formed family is protected by the tribe, but any party can dissolve the family and restore an independent individual if there are reasonable reasons.'

'Third: Families with young children in school can be exempted from the 10% tax for each child during the school year.'

In the past winter, while doing nothing, the people of the Xiawan tribe also gained a lot of knowledge through study.

Now that you have a basic understanding of arithmetic, you at least know what numbers above twenty are.

Therefore, after some calculations, many tribesmen directly approached the Flame Red Silkworm and requested to change the tax ratio.

After some discussions with each other, many tribesmen left with proud expressions. They had obtained the greatest benefits for themselves.

‘Taxation has been changed from ‘Ten taxes and one’ to ‘Thirty taxes and one’.’

The Flame Red Silkworm then called on all tribesmen to conduct a talent selection and selected 800 outstanding tribesmen.

With these 800 tribesmen as the backbone, the Flame Red Silkworms established 800 villages with Wufeng Cave as the core.

Five cities were established based on the model of five villages and one town, five towns and one county, and five counties and one city.

Except for the capital of these five cities in Wufeng, Hawan, the other four cities are distributed in the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest.

The capital city is 'Yanwan', the east city is 'Su', the south city is 'Bo', the west city is 'Tao', and the north city is 'Gong'.

In addition, when the administrative system is established, the Flame Red Silkworm prepares to select five thousand brave and fierce tribesmen from the tribe to establish five troops to guard the five cities.

In order for these tribesmen to train and fight with peace of mind, the Flame Red Silkworm issued a decree.

Anyone who holds a military position will be exempted from land taxes for life for the family he founded. However, if he is expelled from the army for violating military orders, this law will be revoked.

The promulgation of this decree greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of the Xiawan tribesmen, and they participated enthusiastically. In the end, eight thousand warriors were selected.

After Zhang Ke's reminder, the Flame Red Silkworms did not disperse the excess 3,000 tribesmen, but stationed 4,000 of them in the capital city of 'Flame Bay'.

The 'mountain and sea realm' has never been a peaceful place. When winter passes, countless hungry beasts and monsters are looking for food.

Hundreds of thousands of people from the Xiawan tribe came into the view of countless living beings.

They swarmed in and whizzed away, trying to devour the human race as they did in the past, but this time they ended up with bloody heads.

The Hawan people are completely different from the past. They are willing to do anything for their families and property, including their own lives.

In order to help the Xiawan people get through the most difficult period, Zhang Ke came out of seclusion and personally refined 5,000 giant long bows and several arrows suitable for the human race in this world.

In addition, a thousand giant shields and a large number of hundred-refined black iron spear heads were also refined.

When Zhang Ke was in the 'Xiantian Yiqi Southern Sect', he consumed 60% of the sect's resources to refine two sets of large-scale production line sequence arrays with the 'One Yuan Rune Algorithm' as the core.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This sequence of magic circles is based on one hundred and eight acquired first-grade spiritual treasures [Wanxiang Hammer] of different sizes, which can quickly refine materials and refine magic weapon components on a large scale.

The Southern Sect can refine [Sky Boat] on a large scale thanks to this sequence of magic arrays.

This sequence of magic formations is the work of Zhang Ke's painstaking efforts over hundreds of years. He once proudly showed off to Qingmei that this method can be used as the combined strength of one of the 10 weapon refiners of the 'Azure Realm'.

If this set of sequential arrays did not require one hundred and eight acquired first-grade spiritual treasures [Vientiane Hammer] to be deployed, he would have loved to refine ten or eight sets of them.

In the end, Nanzong exhausted half of the sect's resources and only refined two sets. One of them was kept in Nanzong for use, and the other one was kept in the 'Dongtian' for later use.

This year is the first year after the Xiawan tribe has grown, and it has not accumulated any accumulation, so Zhang Ke decided to help.

With the countless weapons refined by Zhang Ke, when encountering difficult beasts and monsters, the human race will no longer let them slaughter them.

Since the emergence of the human race in the 'Mountain and Sea Realm', this race has been in the most dangerous environment.

Years of training in life and death have resulted in the humans in this world having extremely high combat literacy. After obtaining weapons, they quickly mastered the use of various weapons.

Especially bows and arrows, the emergence of this long-range weapon has increased the lethality of the Xiawan tribe countless times.

Whenever a large number of wild beasts gathered together to attack various villages, they were killed by a hail of arrows before they could get close.

Even if it breaks through the rain of arrows, what greets them is a wall of giant shields and extremely sharp spears and spears.

The battlefield has always been the place where combat grows fastest.

Although many tribesmen died at the mouths of many wild beasts and monsters during this period, it was only more than a month of fighting, and the tribe of Xiawan tribe had grown up rapidly.

When the worst wave of beasts in spring passes, countless beast corpses are left behind.

The Hawan tribe finally laid down its foundation on this land for the first time.
