After personally realizing how precious the gift given to him by Huang Yongnian, who had become the God of Wangyu River, Liang En couldn't sit still.
Although he knew that there was some kind of karma in this extraordinary world, and it was normal for him to give everything he had to repay the favor of saving his life, Liang Enjue always felt that he should give something back after such a precious gift.
So the next day, he went to the City God's Temple during the day and after offering five taels of silver incense money, he asked the temple priest what the gods liked.
Since Liang En would come to the City God's Temple every now and then to burn incense sticks, and then donate dozens of incense coins, and occasionally a few taels of silver, so the Taoists in the temple immediately gave Liang En the gift after asking about the deity he wanted to worship.
He has a detailed list.
Naturally, this kind of list would not be given to ordinary people, but the true energy leaking from Liang En's body made the Taoist realize that he had crossed the threshold of a practitioner and was still a Taoist practitioner, so he was naturally willing to make it easier for him.
As Liang En imagined before, the most important thing to the gods is incense. The gods with incense and the gods without incense are completely different concepts, so everything the gods need is related to incense.
To take the simplest example, the reason why the gods have requirements for the incense offered to the gods is because the incense can purify and even amplify the power of faith, bringing more benefits to the gods.
Of course, using external objects is just a small way. For gods, what can really improve their power is to gain more and more pious beliefs, or to have a deeper understanding of the direction of their beliefs.
"So that's it." After reading the list given by the Taoist priests at the City God's Temple, Liang En sat at his desk and started thinking. At the same time, a plan gradually took shape in his mind.
When night fell, he returned to the modern world again, and then logged into a QQ group.
This QQ group was formed by a group of fictional history enthusiasts. They mainly discuss content about time travel and fictional worlds. As a former street writer and history enthusiast, Liang En is also a frequent visitor to this group.
Unlike many QQ groups that are purely verbal, this group is more inclined to make logical inferences, so people like Liang En who study history-related majors are naturally quite popular in the group.
So as soon as he went online, he saw a group of people greeting him.
After saying hello to these friends, he sent the ancient map of Wangyu River scanned with his mobile phone and the information he collected about the river to the group, and then told the group why he came to the group this time.
Purpose.
"Brothers, I have something to ask for your help with." Liang En's hands were clicking on the computer keyboard. "I want to develop an efficient canal transportation system."
"The system I require is to be based on the overall level of the early Ming Dynasty, and at the same time improve efficiency while minimizing changes to the current situation -"
According to his own ideas, Liang En wrote down nearly ten requests piecemeal, and when he sent all these things to the group, there was a lot of complaints in the group.
"Oh my god! Do you need to set it up in such detail?"
"This is a troublesome job."
"To be honest, it should take professionals several days to do this. This can only be done if there is information on the Internet. Otherwise, a month or two will be considered quick."
There was a wailing sound in the group. Although everyone liked this kind of thing, Liang En's request was really too detailed, and it was a burden for everyone to do it.
"This work is not free." After everyone's discussions began to slow down, Liang En dropped a bombshell. "The other party is willing to pay three thousand euros as a set reward. The only requirement is that everyone can work faster."
After hearing that there was money available, the atmosphere in the group suddenly became lively. However, because this job was indeed a bit too professional, most people just discussed it there and did not see anyone willing to take the job.
.
"It seems that there may be no professionals in the group. Do I really need to consider a place like a design institute?" After waiting for half an hour, Liang En began to lose confidence.
But just when he was about to give up, someone sent him a private message and expressed his willingness to take on the task.
"No problem, we can do this job. Just give me a week. We promise to do everything properly for you."
An old friend whose online name was Scroll Scholar finally took over the task. Then he gave Liang En the URL of a shopping website.
This is the simplest way to conduct transactions in the group. He will list a product on the shopping website, and Liang En will spend money to buy the product: although it cannot be guaranteed to be absolutely safe, it is much safer than trading directly in the group.
During the few days of waiting, Liang En focused his time and energy on practicing the extraordinary power he had obtained before and now. After all, some things can only be truly mastered through personal experience.
After actually getting started, Liang En found that "Xiaoyao Ziji Qi Refining Technique" was more suitable for him than he thought:
This may be because his personality is more casual and not so cursory, so it just fits in with the carefree heart required by "Xiaoyao Ziji Qi Refining Technique".
Of course, as a layman, there is still a certain gap between him and the real Xiaoyao, but if you want to go further in this regard, you may need luck rather than hard work.
After all, you cannot actively pursue the mentality of being free and easy. If you really pursue it actively, you will fall into the inferior position, which is the opposite of true freedom.
He can only hope that one day he will really figure it out and truly understand the meaning of Xiaoyao. Because only in this way can he ensure that the next practice can be smooth sailing.
Fortunately, compared to "Xiaoyao Ziji Qi Refining Technique", "Qinglian Sword Technique" is much simpler to practice. With continuous practice, his mastery of this skill gradually deepened.
Different from the Immortal Cultivation Sword Art he imagined, this sword art not only has sword control and sword energy, but also has a very complete set of close combat sword techniques.
Although the first two can only use the most basic sword energy at Liang En's current level, the close combat swordsmanship can greatly improve his level of force.
Especially unlike the fighting skills that appear in the modern society without demons, the sword skills attached to the Qinglian Sword Art can make more effective use of extraordinary power, so the lethality will naturally be more powerful.
Thinking about it, the swordsmanship in the modern world will definitely not have any methods that match the sword energy.
As time went by, Liang En gradually got better in his practice, and what could be called a double happiness was that after the agreed time of one week passed, he also got the overall plan of Wangyu River.
"With only a few changes, the efficiency of this canal can be increased by 35%." Just when Liang En was checking this document, lines of explanations appeared on QQ.
"And if we invest in some new machinery that can be manufactured with the technology at the time, then the overall efficiency can be increased by 20% again. At the same time, the resources required for this change are not high -"
"Yes, this is what I want." After roughly checking the document, Liang En quickly paid the promised amount and then started to carry the document.
Fortunately, his memory has been greatly enhanced after practicing practice, so it only took him two days to memorize and understand the document with a professional explanation.
In addition, he also bought some spices and other items that the gods liked as gifts.
After making all the preparations, he returned to the ancient world with the prepared things, and then took a boat to visit his river god friends.
