Although the demons were dispersed, a lot of things were left behind.
Tu Shanjun had no interest in these matters, let alone the power in his hands, so he left them all to Nie Quanjiu.
After all, he had also lived in a secular dynasty, and with a lot of knowledge in his mind that did not belong to this era, Tu Shanjun still knew a little about how to employ people.
The main peak of Dahei Mountain was renovated and was completed before nightfall.
The palaces and buildings everywhere look like a small city on the top of a mountain.
Tu Shanjun arranged a defensive formation according to the layout. With this formation, it can basically guarantee that no monks or demons with a golden elixir or lower level will sneak in.
What surprised Tushanjun the most was that the treasure house in Daheishan contained a lot of alchemy materials, as well as a good-looking alchemy furnace.
Inside the treasure house, there are mountains of spiritual stones, and there are also many magic weapons, storage talismans, storage bags, and even different types of talismans on display.
It is indeed an exaggeration to say that it is a treasure house. Most of these things are trophies, or were collected by the ghost king of Daheishan after the monks died, and then purchased with spiritual stones, and then accumulated here.
There are three spirit stone veins in Daheishan.
There is one medium-sized vein and two small-sized veins, with an annual output of up to 200,000 spiritual stones.
Although he produced a lot, his actual salary, plus the support for his spiritual veins, seemed to be too much.
There are medium-grade third-grade spiritual veins entrenched in the mountain, which are enough to support the practice of Golden Core monks. This is all due to the maintenance of spiritual stones, plus the fusion and absorption of small spiritual veins, to produce spiritual veins that are sufficient for the cultivation of Golden Core monks.
At first glance, I didn't know it, but when I really took control, I discovered that all the demon cultivators and ghost cultivators in this hundred thousand miles of mountains and rivers were counting on these three veins of spiritual stone.
Without special products and relying only on market transactions, it is impossible to make the spirit stones flow, let alone make a profit.
As soon as he left the treasure house and arrived at the main hall, Nie Quan had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Tu Shanjun coming out, he bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the spiritual mines in Xishan are about to be exhausted."
"What will be the consequences?"
Nie Quanjiu first stated how much production would be reduced, and then talked about the pros and cons: "There will be at least 40,000 to 50,000 spiritual stones lost every year. If there are not enough spiritual stones to distribute salaries, they will switch to other forces."
"The shrinking of the territory will not only shake the support of other demon cultivators, but will also make the surrounding forces feel that the king is unable to support Daheishan, which will definitely trigger a fight."
Monster fights become more frequent.
After all, it is for your own practice.
If there are no resources, just by breathing in spiritual energy every day, even if you grind your mouth to make bubbles, you won't be able to swallow much spiritual energy.
What's more, turning spiritual energy into one's own cultivation level.
There is not much difference between monsters and human cultivators. If you want to quickly improve your strength, you also need resources.
The road to cultivating immortality is fast, step by step.
Monsters are all kings with strong strength, and those with abundant resources will help more.
The king must be able to fight and subdue other monsters, be able to fight against the monster kings of other large territories, and provide protection to these attached spirits.
Without strong enough cultivation, no little demon will surrender.
If you don’t have resources and can only fight with each other, how can you grab them all the way?
It is to cultivate immortality, not to die.
If too many monsters die, they will also question whether there is a future for following such a great king.
There is no single-minded fool in the world. If the king tells him to die, he will die.
…
Tu Shanjun frowned. He did not expect to encounter a financial crisis.
He could subsidize the shortfall of 40,000 to 50,000 yuan a year out of his own pocket. But this was just treating the symptoms rather than the root cause. What was the point of using spiritual stones to fund the cultivation of demons and monsters?
"Spiritual planting, caring for spiritual beasts, brewing spiritual wine..."
Tu Shanjun thought about what he knew, and ignored the other things. In short, he would first cultivate spiritual fields. The spiritual veins of Daheishan were so powerful that he should be able to cultivate hundreds of thousands of acres of spiritual fields.
Whether it is self-sufficiency or trade exchange, it is enough.
Using spiritual stones to cultivate is too luxurious. Having spiritual crops can guarantee the growth of cultivation. Although it is slow, it is better than stable.
Especially for Qi practitioners who do not have a grain of rice, spiritual crops can not only improve their cultivation level but also do not require them to spend time refining impurities. They are the best choice for Qi practitioners.
Furthermore, having work to do can reduce the number of spirits causing trouble.
Otherwise, if you have enough to eat every day and have nothing to do, you will definitely make trouble.
Tu Shanjun had an idea in his mind and was not in a hurry to say it.
Instead, he said calmly and calmly: "First, count all the monsters and ghosts in the territory and register them."
"You can take charge of any minor matters yourself. If you feel that you are alone and weak, just bring over the team from Gaoping Mansion."
To govern the country, a county has enough talents, let alone a state capital.
Tu Shanjun is really not interested in power.
He also needs to study the elixir for diluting the Yingyue Golden Elixir. Last time, he already had a clue in Huaifeng. If there is enough time, the results should be available soon.
The original Dahei Mountain was loose. Although the Dahei Mountain Ghost King regarded it as something in his pocket, he did not develop it. Instead, he kept collecting incense and wishing power to condense his divine body.
Later, he was so burdened that he couldn't leave Daheishan City. He had to stay in seclusion all year round, and he even had less control over the spirits under his control.
As long as they work honestly, they will get their share of the salary. To put it bluntly, the Daheishan Ghost King is strong and can suppress it, otherwise trouble would have occurred long ago.
Furthermore, the Wanfa Sect restricts monks from interfering with the secular world. Otherwise, those monsters and monsters would break into the city and eat people, and they would probably eat up the ordinary city.
Tu Shanjun was thinking.
After the initial chaos has passed, the population has been determined, and the fragments of magical artifacts left behind in the temples have been recovered, it will not be too late to implement the policy of farming.
After all, you need to be prepared before going to farm.
Fortunately, Guxian Tower has a large spiritual boat passing through Daheishan, and the required supplies can be purchased at Guxian Tower.
Tushanjun plans to leave this matter to Malu.
The conversation changed and Tu Shanjun asked: "How long do you have left to live?"
This question surprised Nie Quanjiu, and he said without much thought: "About thirty years."
The lifespan of monsters and ghosts is not longer than that of humans. Everyone is a cultivator of immortals. Although there is a difference in lifespan increase between realms, it is not significant.
We do not rule out some longer-lived spirits, such as turtles...
Or spirits with strong bloodlines, they also have long lifespans.
Compared with lifespan, what is more noteworthy about those monsters is their cultivation and strength.
Tu Shanjun looked at Nie Quanjiu and said in a calm voice: "I believe you have some wealth. Counting the Dahei Mountains, I can help you buy a good quality pill-forming spiritual object."
Nie Quanjiu looked up suddenly, as if he was trying to find out whether what Tu Shanjun said was true or false.
He didn't see anything. He only saw the man sitting quietly on the throne, leaning on the seat. The holder of the half-volume scripture in his hand was rolled up, and each one was clapped in his hand.
"Seriously?!" Even though he knew he shouldn't ask, Nie Quanjiu couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart.
"I, Tushanjun, will never lie in my promise."
Nie Quan bowed and said, "I am willing to serve your Majesty."
"Go and rest."
…
The days that followed were relatively normal. In addition to studying pill formulas, Tushanjun took care of his children every day. Then a demon cultivator offered fragments of a Shinto magic weapon, and Tushanjun exchanged them for the Yinhun Dan.
In half a month, they found all the fragments of Shinto magic weapons scattered in the Dahei Mountains.
An interesting thing happened in the past month and a half.
The emperor of the secular dynasty at the foot of Dahei Mountain sent people to Dahei Mountain to offer sacrifices.
It is said to be a sacrifice, but in fact it is to inquire for information.
It was nothing more than the unusual vibration that night. Even the statues in the temple had changed their appearance. How could they remain indifferent? This was a major matter related to wealth, wealth and life.
That is to say, I didn't see the golden elixir master fighting, otherwise I would be even more shocked.
"Your Majesty, we have ascertained the information. During the banquet of the King of Daheishan Mountain half a month ago, two monks and Taoists took action. Later, the black-robed Taoist became the final winner. It is indeed exactly the same as the one in the temple."
"I didn't expect that before I knew it, the weather had already changed."
"I just don't know if this new king is easy to deal with."
"We also heard that the Great Black Mountain King ordered all demons and immortals to stop cannibalism."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the officials in the mission suddenly lit up.
They looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
If their information is correct, the person who replaced the Ghost King of Dahei Mountain is probably the Red-haired Immortal who has been praised for a long time.
Now that I heard that the new king of Daheishan has restrained the demons and ghosts, it becomes even more certain.
Tu Shanjun heard that they asked for a meeting, but he did not summon them. He casually sent the chief manager of the main peak to ask her to find someone to send them away. They were not from the same world, and seeing them or not would not make any difference at all. Maybe meeting them would be troublesome.
The other party said this just out of politeness. Even if they were really sure that Tushanjun was the Red-haired Immortal, they didn't want to actually see Tushanjun.
But for them, the news they received was unbelievable enough.
…
Netherland.
In the land of undulating mountains, there are clusters of buildings and buildings.
The second couplet of the Taoist temple reads "Entering the Yin spirit to see the true self".
The handsome young man in splendid clothes crushed the elixir in his hand and sighed quietly: "The elixir is only expensive, so why is the efficacy not up to the ideal level? It is far from what I have taken before.
"
He couldn't remember how many times he had complained. All in all, after leaving the village, he felt that people's hearts were not as good as before.
And, most importantly, nearly thirty years later, he actually...
Before he could think about it, a long chant came from the door: "Report, your Majesty!"
Being interrupted from his thoughts, he was a little unhappy, and an unhappy look condensed on his face, but maybe it was an urgent matter so he didn't pursue it, but asked: "What's the matter?"
"Report to the king, there is a new king in Daheishan."
"Isn't it normal for monsters and monsters to be replaced by one or two other kings?"
If it was just like this, it would make him feel that it was not worth interrupting his thoughts.
"It's strange to say that I have a good relationship with the Yinshan prefect of Daheishan. I heard that he was collecting evil spirits and even found them on my head. After asking around, I found out that it was their new king who asked him to collect evil spirits.
Yes, and in exchange for elixirs."
He grasped the key point and said with some surprise: "Elixir?"
"Your Majesty, please see, this is the elixir they were talking about." As soon as the monster took out the jade box, he felt a light movement in his hand, and the jade box had already reached the hand of the figure in the embroidered robe.
The monster quietly asked for credit: "I spent a lot of spiritual stones to get one."
The man in the splendid robe opened the jade box and was stunned for a long time.
Only then did he swallow it in one gulp.
Then he opened his eyes suddenly and exclaimed: "This is it!"
