After that night at Tianwen Academy, Yao Yun realized something. In the next period of time, in addition to using [Ten Thousand Ghosts Come to the Banner] to teach the ghosts the secret rune skill [Earth and Stone Technique], he spent the rest of the time meditating on the runes.
.
With the experimental research of countless disciples in the Rune Laboratory, and the rune insights of countless spiritual masters in the [Rune Dao Stele] as a reference, Yao Yun's understanding of the runes is rapid, and one day's work is better than ordinary people's ten years of work.
.
Because he has [Ten Thousand Ghosts Come to Worship Banner], [Pray for Rain] magical snake, and can grow the magical weapon [Four God-Killing Swords], [Beijing Talisman Sword] in his hand, Yao Yun disdains ordinary witchcraft and secret arts, so
I didn't learn many secret techniques.
However, after comprehending many secrets of runes, Yao Yun realized that his previous ideas were biased.
Although magical powers are powerful, they are not omnipotent. Sometimes a just-right runic secret technique is more useful and powerful than magical powers.
For example, the secret rune technique [Earth and Stone Technique] created by the Tianwen disciples in Pa Shi is only an entry-level rune secret technique, but its practical value is comparable to any top-level magical power.
The same is true in combat. In a battle between masters, mastering an amazingly powerful magical power is of course more powerful than a tiger, but the battle is constantly changing, and one magical power cannot be used all over the world.
After Yao Yun understood the way of runes, he saw countless witchcraft and secret techniques of Qi refiners. Although he could not digest them all in one go, his knowledge was greatly expanded and he developed a pair of eyes that can see all the laws in the world.
Time passes day by day. In addition to dealing with daily political affairs, Yao Yun spends the rest of his time studying the rune stele and comprehending the rune avenue.
Yao Yun did not slack off in his daily cultivation. After taking the imperial medicine left by Emperor Yan of Shennong at Lingshan Huangniao, Yao Yun's cultivation level skyrocketed, reaching the late stage of the second level. After these days of cultivation, he has made a faint breakthrough.
omen.
Because of this, while Yao Yun was coordinating the construction of Chishui City, he focused on his cultivation and lived a fulfilling and satisfying life.
Not only Yao Yun, everyone in Xidu, from the ministers and senior officials to the common people, is full of energy these days. Under the united will of the whole country, Chishui City is changing day by day, and the speed of change is staggering.
One month after Yao Yun taught the army of ghosts [Earth and Stone Art], the official road [Xishui National Road] from Xidu to Chishui City was officially opened.
Whether it is a highway in the plains or a mountain road in the mountains, the entire road is extremely wide, flat, sturdy and durable. Compared with the cement and asphalt roads of later generations, it is not as easy to worry about.
If compared with mud roads and gravel roads in this life, the quality level of [Xishui National Road] is considered to be an instant kill, and the two sides are no longer on the same level.
Once such a high-level, epoch-making road comes out, it will definitely have a shocking bombing effect.
Especially the laborers, slaves and the little foxes from Qingqiu Mountain were all dumbfounded when they saw this wide and flat road.
The road was obviously built by myself, why is it so strange?
During the day it was still dirt and gravel, but overnight it turned into a yellow-orange solid stone road!
Isn't this a dream?
Everyone doubts life, as if they are dreaming.
The laborers, slaves and the nine-tailed foxes in Qingqiu Mountain were confused, but soon, they voluntarily attributed all their power to the king. At the same time, the legend of a hundred thousand road-building ghosts began to spread.
When the [Xishui National Highway] was completed, Grandma Qingqiu came out to see it in person. At first she didn't believe it when she heard the crazy rumors about her little nine-tailed foxes.
But when she actually witnessed the long and winding [Xishui National Highway], she was completely stunned, and her heart kept echoing with the exclamation of "wonderful craftsmanship"!
Perhaps only the ghosts under the command of [Ten Thousand Ghosts Come to the Banner], and only [Earth and Stone Technique], which can be called an infrastructure artifact, have such great power.
Before everyone could sigh, after the construction of the [Xishui National Highway], which was completed ahead of schedule, the labor period of the people of the Xi Kingdom had not passed, so a large number of strong laborers came to Chishui City under the escort of the army to continue working.
The construction of Chishui City was carried out at the same time as the [Xishui National Highway]. The road was completed, but Chishui City was still under construction in full swing.
[Earth and Stone Technique] is an artifact of infrastructure construction. It can not only be used to build roads and bridges, but it can also be used to build cities and houses. It is also a great weapon.
Before that, most poor people could only live in huts and thatched houses, which were shabby and shabby. If the wind and rain were a little bit stronger, the house would be turned upside down, without protection from the wind or rain.
The rich and wealthy family of Zhongming Dingshi can use wood and solid stone to build a house that is extremely rainproof, sturdy and durable, beautiful and exquisite.
The houses currently built in Chishui River are made entirely of earth and stone, which not only provide protection from wind and rain, but are also strong and durable!
More importantly, like [Xishui National Road], with the powerful combination of [Earth and Stone Technique] and hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers and generals, Chishui City's rise is equally astonishing:
The tall city walls stand firm, and a majestic city begins to take shape;
One after another, sturdy and durable houses were built in accordance with the plans of Xiguo's senior officials, and were in order;
On the open space, the foundations are laid one by one, and it is foreseeable that many large buildings will stand here;
...
In an open field overgrown with grass, a city rises overnight!
Those slaves who arrived at the Chishui River after the completion of the Xishui National Highway were astonished when they saw this city that had risen overnight, as if they had seen a miracle.
Anyone who has some knowledge will understand in their hearts at this moment that they are doing something great. As participants, for the first time, the people who are doing corvee feel that they can be so proud and proud of doing corvee!
After being amazed, Chishui City is still under construction and improvement in order to create an even more amazing and perfect work!
.......
Xiguo is in full swing, working hard and staying aloof from the world, while the outside world is always paying attention to Xiguo's movements.
Especially after the three great uncles of Izumo, Mo, and Shanyuan joined forces to blockade and sanctioned Xi, the three countries were not idle.
The three countries each sent heavy troops to surround Xi State and blocked all the roads connecting Xi State with the outside world. They were afraid that Xi State would find another way to secretly transport food, clothing, ironware, ore, slaves and other goods from other places.
After they blocked Xi State, Xi State only expressed its dissatisfaction and protest at first, and appealed to the three overlords of Zhuxiazi and Chu, Yue and Wu, but then took no other action at all.
He neither became angry out of shame, nor secretly shipped goods to Xi, he just worked hard.
The three kings were very satisfied and thought that their plan to blockade Xi State was going well. Xi State was in trouble, and it was difficult to open up wasteland and build a city.
For this reason, the three kings gathered together to toast and drink together, which was very pleasant.
"With the mere manpower and material resources of the Xi Kingdom, tens of thousands of people, without external help, if they want to open up wasteland and build a city, they will definitely not be able to do it within a year and a half. If they want to build a large granary on the Chishui River, it will not take several years.
Don’t even think about it, hahaha!”
Uncle Izumo smiled wildly, happily and proudly.
Uncle Mo and Uncle Shan Yuan also smiled in relief. The rise of Xi State has put too much pressure on them. If they can slow down Xi State, they will feel relieved.
Uncle Mo smiled: "The rise of the Xi Kingdom is too fast and scary. The best situation is as Uncle Izuyun said!"
Uncle Shan Yuan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, but Gu Yin is a little worried. He is afraid that Uncle Xi will play some tricks. The spies have been sent out, but there has been no response. I don't know how the construction of Chishui City is going..."
