Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

On a barren mountain more than ten miles away from Heishui Town, two or three hundred coolies were sweating.

They were originally refugees from other places. They were recruited by Wanjia to reclaim the barren mountains in Heishui Town. Now they can eat every day, finally ending their days of wandering.

Now they are very satisfied, especially when they heard that someone's children were boiled and how many people were starved to death there, in addition to feeling lucky, they also had a little sense of superiority.

Today I finally finished my day's work, and it's time for dinner.

The food they are now eating is a nest made of corn grass seeds and wild vegetables. Each person can get two per meal, which is already a good meal compared to the refugees.

One by one, the coolies carried hoes and knives to the hut where they ate. They had to train in line for an hour or two in the evening after eating. They didn't understand, what was the use of this kind of drill.

At this moment, a group of bandits came shouting from the mountain road, and their momentum seemed very scary.

Faced with this situation, many people's subconscious reaction is to escape, safety first.

As for the resistance, it seems that there is no need for it. They don't have any property. If the bandits want to rob it, they also rob Zhang's family.

The two guards who were in charge of supervising on the mountain could only shout hoarsely, but to no avail.

Only a dozen or so coolies dared to follow the guards...

The news that the wasteland camp was robbed soon reached Heishui Town. Wei Peng and Old Man Zhang didn't know what to do, so they reported it to Zhang He overnight.

Zhang He glanced at the information, and the bandits stole all the food in the camp.

There were only twelve coolies fighting with the guards at the scene. One guard was hacked to death, another was injured, and three coolies died in battle.

"To the families of the four war dead, one hundred catties of corn will be given to each of them as a pension."

"This...will this be too much? According to the current grain price, fifty catties is enough."

Wei Peng asked cautiously, now that food is more expensive than people.

"Although people are not valuable, those who dare to work hard are very valuable. If there is a battle in the future, let's implement it according to this standard.

In addition, all those who take the initiative to participate in the battle will be rewarded with another twenty catties of food.

For those coolies who ran away, half of their meals were deducted, and they returned to normal when they dared to fight with the bandits.

Camp land reclamation and drills continued. "

After Zhang He gave a simple instruction, he didn't plan to take care of it, and he didn't tell him how to retaliate.

After Wei Peng returned, he could only do it honestly.

The family of the deceased, apart from being saddened by the death of their relatives, was very content with receiving 100 catties of grain. It was a precarious situation to live these days, and it was not bad that one life could be exchanged for 100 catties of grain.

As for the coolies who were deprived of half their rations, many people have fallen into regret, and now they just hope that the bandits will come back soon, so that they have a chance to perform again.

Five days later, another wasteland camp belonging to Heishui Town was looted by bandits.

This time everyone learned a lesson, no coolies dared to escape, and they fought a big battle with the bandits, and both sides suffered casualties.

Another seven days later, a village under reconstruction in Heishui Town encountered bandits, and also led by the guards, launched a counterattack.

Twelve days later, a wasteland camp...

With the arrival of winter, the frequency of looting by bandit groups composed of refugees is getting higher and higher, and there will be a wave every now and then.

Especially like Heishui Town, there are coolie camps everywhere, blooming everywhere, and they are the priority targets for bandits to loot.

The coolies scattered all over the place could only use weapons and fight the bandits again and again. Naturally, there were casualties. Wei Peng gave generous pensions according to Zhang He's instructions.

In the battles, the coolies' combat power increased rapidly, from the loss at the beginning, to the level of the two sides, and then to the latter being able to win the battle.

Of course, the combat effectiveness of the bandits has also steadily improved during the constant looting. Those who can still survive now have few lives in their hands.

However, the coolies in Heishui Town have a more scientific way of training, as well as strict discipline and a neat array, which can better exert their collective strength.

Zhang He didn't know how wide the disaster was and how many people were affected.

Anyway, the area to which Dehua County belongs is now a mess.

Food resources are limited. If you want to survive, you can only live to the end by plundering and grabbing food from others.

Except in Dehua City, which is strictly guarded by the city, other places seem to be raising Gu, and those who can survive in the end are definitely the most ferocious ones.

Zhang He, apart from occasionally learning about news from various places, is usually in meditation practice. Recently, his dantian has always been bulging, and he feels that he is about to break through to the second level of qi training.

An immortal cultivator at the first level of Qi training is really useless, and he can't use a single spell, so he is stronger than ordinary people.

At the second level of Qi training, you can perform some basic spells, such as fireball, entanglement, earth shield, water archery, etc.

However, what he is most looking forward to is a rejuvenation technique recorded in "True Solution to Qi Practice", which can cure illnesses and injuries.

The medical treatment of the Great Zhou Dynasty is too backward, and if you suffer a small injury, you may die. Only when you have a healing spell on your body can you feel safe.

Zhang He practiced continuously for two and a half months at the foot of Qifeng Mountain. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

On this day, he felt that his dantian swelled uncomfortably, and a sense of oppression rushed down.

Well, it feels a bit like having a baby.

At this time, Zhang He was using the mana in his dantian with all his strength, and a stream of mana rapidly revolved in his dantian, forming a small vortex.

Suddenly Zhang He's body was shaken, and a mana rushed out from his dantian, penetrating the perineum downward.

Then this mana didn't stop there, but ran downwards and backwards, as if to find a vent.

Finally, the airflow found a hole in the back, and then merged into this hole.

Zhang He looked overjoyed, his mana finally came out of the perineum from his dantian, and now it has flowed into the Changqiang point of the Governor Vessel.

Changqiang acupoint is the first acupoint of the Du meridian, and connecting the mana to this acupoint indicates that he has successfully entered the second level of qi training.

The area of ​​acupuncture points on the body surface is only a quarter of the size of a fingernail, but on the channels through which the meridians run mana, they are equivalent to lakes, which can store a large amount of mana.

Now that his mana has flowed into Changqiang, the swelling in his dantian has disappeared, and his whole body has become refreshed.

For the next few days, Zhang He continued to meditate to stabilize his state.

Ten days later, he temporarily stopped practicing and went outside for a walk.

Now that winter has entered, the land is frozen hard, and many coolies go down with a pickaxe and can only dig a small hole as deep as an inch.

Zhang He had just made a breakthrough, and he was very playful. He knocked off the ice surface of the pond. He heard that ice fishing was easier, and he wanted to try it.

Facts have proved that his fishing skills are really bad. In the end, he stabbed a small fish with a fishing rod and finally ate the fish.
