Chapter 12 The New Countryside Movement

ps: Thanks to yangzhigang and eagle Zhou for their rewards, and thanks to qwe79, kinprivn, Piaomiaoxieshen, peoplepark, Fengxiao Yihan, dfg453, betald, etc. for their monthly ticket encouragement. ∈♀ Pindao managed to code the words today, and he was relieved.

But tomorrow will be even busier, I really can’t imagine whether I will have time.

On the way back to Wuji Mountain, Zhao Ran said nothing and was rejected by Heshan Yi. He could already foresee the attitude of Liu Zhuang Yi towards his proposal, so to be honest, he was a little depressed.

However, not long after he was depressed, his mood suddenly improved a lot - at this moment, he felt another trace of heat in the sea of ​​air.

The old donkey raised up its hooves, and one of the donkeys took the lead to fight back to Wuji Mountain, leaving Guan Er and Lu Jin behind. Not to mention how the two people felt about the old donkey, Zhao Ran hurried back to his house and immediately hurried to his house.

Close the door and follow the method in the first chapter of "Innate Merit Sutra" to convert the total three strands of merit power you have obtained into magic power.

"The Sutra of Innate Merit and Virtue" does not emphasize breathing and breathing, so the transformation is very fast, and it is completed in a few breaths. However, after the transformation, Zhao Ran found that the amount of mana in his Qi Sea was too little, and it was almost reached.

It was so insignificant. He roughly estimated the transformation ratio in his mind, which was probably between ten to one, but compared with the power of merit after transformation, it was much more solid. If the power of merit is like

Cotton, then mana is like a rope.

What can this little magic power be used for? Almost nothing can be done. The only thing Zhao Ran can do is to verify according to the method mentioned in the scriptures - a small spark rises from his fingertips, and it turns on its own in a few breaths.

It was annihilated. As the spark disappeared, the mana in his Qi Sea was immediately exhausted.

Zhao Ran was not in a hurry. He closed his eyes and rested for a while, then took a walk around Wuji Courtyard. After spending about an hour, his mana was restored, and Zhao Ran could continue to play the trick of lighting fires with his fingertips.

It may be just a small and insignificant step in the eyes of others, but for Zhao Ran, it is an earth-shaking step! Zhao Ran was so excited that he wanted to shout out - I can finally practice!

After getting excited, Zhao Ran began to think about his own practice plan.

The first thing that needs to be solved is the problem of lack of merit. Because it does not come from absorbing and swallowing, Zhao Ran thinks that perhaps using the word "cultivate" is more in line with the actual situation. This problem has already been solved, which is to do good deeds, do practical things, and do good things.

Things that are beneficial to others. The establishment of the relief station is a useful attempt by him. With the smooth progress of the rescue at Yangmayi, he can cultivate his merit power from time to time. As long as the rescue does not decrease, his merit power will be

will continue to increase.

Then what needs to be considered is what exercises should be practiced after converting the power of merit into usable magic power. The "Xiantian Tao Te Ching" solves the problem of presence or absence, but after having magic power, how should it be used? This point

, there is no record in the scriptures. Therefore, the problem facing Zhao Ran now is that he does not have a Taoist book for practice. How to draw talismans, how to cast spells, and how to fight. These things are all means of preserving life, and there is no corresponding

He has no magic power but doesn't know how to use it, let alone fight with others.

But now it seems that he still has some time to buffer himself. After all, if he wants to learn supernatural powers, he must first accumulate enough mana.

Zhao Ran thought about it carefully for a long time, and many ideas came to his mind. Isn't it easy to do good things? Learn from Uncle Lei's good example. He has been deeply educated since he was a child, and he has kept this in mind.

Doing what he thought of, Zhao Ran immediately summoned Guan Er and Lu Jin. The task given to them was very simple, which was to recruit workers in the surrounding fields. Guan Er was very confused, but still followed Zhao Ran's instructions and went to several people at the foot of Wuji Mountain.

We took a trip to the village and didn’t return to the mountain until very late.

Early the next morning, Zhao Ran took Guan Er and Lu Jin down the mountain. A group of strong laborers had already arrived at the foot of the mountain as promised. According to Zhao Ran's instructions, Guan Er and Lu Jin recruited ten young men, and also came from Guyang.

The county hired a mason specifically. The agreed-upon remuneration was ten cents for a day's work, plus two meals. The mason's remuneration was doubled. Now is the off-season, and these people are happy to come and do the work and earn some money.

Household allowance.

A group of people drove two carts, one cart was loaded with various tools, and the other cart was filled with new tiles, lime and other materials, and swarmed to follow Zhao Ran to the countryside.

The first village Zhao Ran went to was in Niucun, five miles northwest of Wuji Mountain. This village was almost all tenants of Wujiyuan, and they rented and farmed the farmland in the courtyard - of course, you have to start doing good things from your own side.

After entering the village, he called the elders in the village. Zhao Ran explained his purpose in a few words. The old man was stunned for a long time and did not respond. Zhao Ran's request was very simple, that is, let the old man lead the way and

Responsible for communicating and explaining, and renovating the houses of all the dilapidated houses in the village.

Of course the old man's surname was Li. He actually understood what Zhao Ran meant, but he didn't understand "why" Zhao Ran did this. He could only feel dizzy and was "escorted" by Zhao Ran to the first house in Dongtou. Zhao Ran

Ran looked at the several holes in the wall of the house that were randomly filled with thatch, and immediately expressed his satisfaction. The old man came forward to negotiate, and then the whole family looked at Zhao Ran's construction team with fear on their faces. Zhao Ran didn't do it either.

He explained and said directly to the mason: "Lao Zhang, it's up to you, do it."

Zhang Bricklayer responded "yes" and began to instruct his group of strong laborers to start work. They dug the earth, filled it, and mixed the mud. After more than an hour, Zhao's construction team completed the construction of the house.

They repaired the broken walls of other houses, replaced all the broken tiles on the roofs, and re-tied the crumbling fences and courtyard walls.

This move left Old Man Li and the family dumbfounded. When they reacted and wanted to come forward to thank them, Zhao Ran had already waved his hand: "Calm it down!" Zhao Ran didn't have time to chat with them, so he had to hurry up when doing good deeds.

Time.

A trace of merit power was cultivated in the sea of ​​qi. Zhao Ran was very satisfied and urged Old Man Li to go to the next house.

After working for seven consecutive days, Zhao's construction team finally renovated thirty-six dilapidated houses in Lijia Village. Zhao Ran had thirty-six more merits in his body, all of which were converted into mana by him. The approximate cost and wages were calculated.

, the materials and meal money were added together, and the total cost was four taels of silver.

Meanwhile, the rescue operations at the Yangmayi Relief Station were also continuing, bringing Zhao Ran twenty-three merit bonuses, which were all converted by Zhao Ran.

Now Zhao Ran can already feel the gradual growth of magic power in the Qi Sea, and the sparks on his fingertips can last for half a cup of tea.

Everyone in Lijia Village was inexplicably surprised. This feeling of smashing a pie in the sky was indeed not bad. Guan Er and Lu Jin, who were always helping Zhao Ran, were also puzzled, but they soon became relieved——

Fangzhu Zhao seems to be becoming more and more compassionate.

So Guan Er came forward and asked Zhao Fangzhu if he planned to renovate all the dilapidated houses in the surrounding villages. Zhao Ran replied that this was really not the case. Pindao planned to renovate the dilapidated houses in all the villages in the entire county!

Guan Er and Lu Jin flattered each other, and then cautiously said that it was admirable for Fangzhu Zhao to be so ambitious. In this case, wouldn't it be much faster to recruit more strong laborers and start work at the same time?

Zhao Ran slapped his forehead and secretly thought that he was really confused, so he decisively adopted a good strategy.

Zhao Ran's job is the head of the Fangtang, and he is mainly responsible for patrolling the county. One of the most important tasks is to assist in investigating the traces of demons. After the Wulong Incident in Changchong Mountain, Zhao Ran got Dazhuo, and under the guidance of Master Xiaozhuo, he has already

Knowing that most of the rumored places with monsters in the county have been listed in the Taoist records, that is to say, they are all "good monsters", I temporarily stopped thinking about catching monsters. Now that there is nothing to do, I simply sent Fang Tang to

Ten teams of inspections were sent out, with two people in each team responsible for recruiting a construction team. Each construction team demarcated the village and each was responsible for a stall.

The vigorous "New Rural Movement" in Guyang County has officially begun.

Zhao Ran rode an old donkey around to inspect and inspect the construction results. At the same time, the merit power in the sea of ​​​​qi began to increase ten times as fast as before. On the 23rd of the New Year, Zhao Ran offered a double salary, which means that as long as

Those who are willing to continue working can get twenty cents a day, while master masons can get forty cents, and meat is added to their meals. Almost all laborers can't resist this temptation and work until the New Year's Eve.

The work finally ended on the evening of September 9, and we made an appointment to continue work after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

In ten days, the merit power in Zhao Ran's Qi Sea has grown in a straight line, and the transformed mana can be clearly felt, burrowing around like a mouse, which is very pleasing. And Zhao Ran's fingertips

The flames have reached more than three inches high and are dazzling! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
