"Doctor Zhang, you?" On the flying boat, Wang Zhongshi was extremely surprised. He had experienced many misfortunes over the years and was able to survive tenaciously. His heart had already become extremely strong, but it still seemed incredible to him that an ordinary doctor he knew suddenly displayed such supernatural skills.
Surprise comes and goes quickly.
Wang Zhongshi forced himself to calm down, said nothing, and just protected his family behind him.
He understood very well that others were the butchers and he did not waste time on anything.
Zhang Shen was very satisfied with this. Being smart is always better than being stupid.
Zhang Shen did not hide his purpose at all and told it directly to Wang Zhongshi.
"I took you away because I was afraid that my actions would implicate you."
"As for whether you want to be my subordinate and start a business together, it's up to you to decide."
"If you don't want to, wait until you are far away from here, and I will let your family leave."
"You can consider it, but I hope you can give me an answer within one day."
This continuous news made Wang Zhongshi feel very upset and he didn't know what to do.
He looked behind him at his seriously ill parents, his frail and thin sister, and himself who was surrounded by misfortune. Then he looked at the white clouds passing by quickly and the flying boat below him.
Wang Zhongshi suddenly realized that the turning point of his destiny was approaching.
"I am in this state, what is there for the immortals to plan for?"
"Even if I have it, as long as it can give me strength and a future, what does it matter if I take it?"
Wang Zhongshi has been in the quagmire of hell for too long. He wants to crawl out of the quagmire all the time! Climb out with his family!
"Master Zhang, don't think about it, I am willing!"
Wang Zhongshi bowed and said, "If the Immortal does not forsake me, I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse!"
"Okay, okay, okay. Wang Zhongshi, you won't regret your decision today." Zhang Shen was in a good mood. He had just said a few words, and the people he wanted to recruit bowed down to him. What did this show? His personality charm was unmistakable.
Throw a jade bottle to Wang Zhongshi.
"There are a few pills in here. Give them to your family. They will be good for them."
"It can eliminate the root of their illness, strengthen their essence, and increase their lifespan."
This pill was also a treasure that Zhang Shen stole.
This world is dominated by spirits. The plants and animals in the wild gather spirits and possess unfathomable powers. Pills are made from these things.
But compared with the practitioners of the immortal and demon paths, these things are too few.
Only by mastering a large number of spirits can one have the remaining energy to cultivate this kind of spiritual plants and spiritual pets.
Wang Zhongshi didn't know the value of the elixir, but when he smelled its fragrance, he felt relaxed and happy, and his body felt unobstructed. He knew that this was a good thing, so he quickly gave it to his parents and sister to take.
Sure enough, as soon as they swallowed the pill, the three of them underwent changes visible to the naked eye.
The dry and thin body became healthy and strong, and the spirit was refreshed.
Wang Zhongshi was dumbfounded.
Is this the magic of immortality? It is as incredible as the storyteller said.
After witnessing this wonderful scene, Wang Zhongshi was completely convinced.
After subduing Wang Zhongshi, Zhang Shen began to think about his next move.
Starting from scratch and slowly absorbing the free population is too slow.
It is still unknown how long it will take to build a big city.
"Killing and arson to get the gold belt, if you want to quickly accumulate the first population, it is faster to use violent means to get strong people from other places."
Zhang Shen made up his mind. While there was still some magic power left in his body, he would quickly go and get some more people.
Only with the first batch of population could the foundation for rapid development be laid in the future.
Far away from Chuan County, we came to the wilderness.
Zhang Shen no longer limits himself
He used his great magic power to lift all the small villages and tribes he encountered along the way into the air along with the land.
Then they found a vast plain area nearby and settled these small villages and tribes there.
No one had any complaints. After seeing Zhang Shen's supernatural powers, no one dared to even complain.
Faced with absolute power, their instinct for survival forced them to surrender.
But Zhang Shen didn't want them to die.
Letting them live in anxiety is not a good thing for either them or Zhang Shen.
He gathered the elders and clan leaders of each small village and tribe, informed them of his purpose of building the city, and comforted them.
These experienced and experienced people were worried that Zhang Shen was just deceiving them, but at the same time they were looking forward to the future that Zhang Shen described.
Zhang Shen promised that he would bring them prosperity, and they would offer their loyalty.
As for the previous act of forced eviction, it was just brushed aside as if it had never happened.
With the mobilization of these village elders and clan leaders, these migrants began to settle down and resume their daily lives.
When Zhang Shen used his great magical powers to move the people, he even moved their entire world over as well, so they didn't have to worry about daily necessities for the time being.
However, this plain area is unoccupied because of its harsh climate and scarce resources.
In order to achieve self-sufficiency before the existing supplies are exhausted.
Zhang Shen immediately began to arrange personnel to start development and production.
Zhang Shen, who had rich experience, commanded thousands of young and strong men to dig here and hammer there, and a new city was built rapidly.
Along the way, Wang Zhongshi was kept by Zhang Shen, who taught him by example.
In the future, all these things will be handed over to Wang Zhongshi. Zhang Shen is doing it himself now, but he is troubled by the lack of talented people.
"Jungshi, you have to learn internal affairs, and you can't let go of the way of immortals."
"You have an excellent talent for cultivation, don't waste it."
Wang Zhongshi nodded hurriedly. He had been busy these days and also had to learn the knowledge of Taoism. He was exhausted both mentally and physically, but he enjoyed it.
Compared to the past, I have no way forward, I am at a loss, and am filled with only resentment.
Now that he has a goal, he bursts with tremendous motivation.
"He is indeed a man of great luck. He learns everything very quickly and grows at an amazing speed."
"Especially after leaving Chuan County, it was as if the latent luck had exploded, and the bad luck in the past was swept away, completely showing the potential of a person with great luck."
"I like children of fortune who have deep but limited fortune. They are all very useful."
No matter how fast Wang Zhongshi progressed, could he be faster than him
The second set of mana from the ninth level of the Dharmakaya has been used up, but Zhang Shen is still the strongest person on this plain.
Relying on the spirits and treasures taken from the county town of Chuan County.
Zhang Shen has reached the end of the first level of the immortal path.
The reason why he didn't break through to the second level directly was that he wanted to experience the mystery of the first level.
As for the first-level spells, he has already mastered six of them, and has mastered them all.
"You don't have to go too fast. You need to see as much of the scenery as possible at every stage of the Immortal Demon Path and build a solid foundation. Only then can you reach the pinnacle of the Immortal Demon Path in this blessed land."
"This is a good thing for both me and the main body."
While appreciating the first-level scenery, Zhang Shen also wanted to master more first-level spells.
With the support of spirits, these spells are really useful.
Due to the difference in the system, a first-level cultivator can do many things that neither acquired nor innate martial artists can do, although they cannot compare to martial artists in terms of direct combat power.
A stream of immortal power circulated, and magical seals were cast into the sky.
The art of gentle breeze and gentle rain!
Continuous drizzle fell on this recently developed plain that was in desperate need of rain.
"An ordinary first-level spell can create a drizzle covering an area of dozens of miles."
"The Immortal Demonic Path is indeed extraordinary."
Amid the cheers of countless people welcoming the joy of the rain, Zhang Shen returned to his residence.
The simple temporary residence is guarded by a formation outside to prevent outsiders from entering.
A milky white jade bowl was placed in the middle of the residence.
There is a thin layer of spirit floating inside.
"Including the elderly and children, the total population is just over 10,000, and their health is not very good."
"It's pretty good that we can collect these scattered spirits in such a short time."
"Unfortunately, it is still far from satisfying my cultivation needs."
"It's more like giving it to that kid Chongshi."
Shaking his head, Zhang Shen sat cross-legged on the cushion in the room.
A space ring, the spirit inside is as vast as an ocean.
Zhang Shen took out the spirit and began to practice in a luxurious way.
Other cultivators would have been eager to break a strand of spirit into two strands to use, but Zhang Shen, on the other hand, just grabbed a handful, swallowed it into his body, and began to practice the Tianyuan Spirit Eating Method to strengthen the spirit in his Dantian.
He even used a lot of spirits to practice first-level spells.
Practice a dozen times a day.
This is also one of the reasons why he can practice first-level spells so quickly.
Others are not as extravagant as him. It would be great if they could practice this spell for ten days or half a month.
Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
A magnificent new city was built on the plain.
At this time, the city's population exceeded 30,000.
These extra population were not captured by Zhang Shenqiang.
People in small villages and tribes all have relatives living in other villages.
There was a shortage of people in Xincheng, and with the generous rewards announced by Zhang Shen, the residents of Xincheng went there spontaneously, bringing their relatives from other places over. Some villages even moved here after learning about the situation.
In this world, there are fairies and demons, and humans are the providers of spirits. Logically speaking, ordinary people should live a good life.
But in fact, except for the cities directly controlled by immortal cultivators, people live quite well.
Those small towns, villages and tribes could barely make ends meet. Every winter, it was not uncommon to see poor people starving to death or freezing to death on the roadside.
People who are struggling to make ends meet will do anything to make a living, let alone move.
Naturally, after confirming the situation in the new city, it was confirmed that Zhang Shen could provide them with enough food.
People around the plain rushed towards the new city.
Zhang Shen accepted all the gifts and took them all.
Although this has led to unrest in public security, it is just a minor problem and can be suppressed with some effort.
"Great, everything is going well, time to move on to more in-depth construction."
After selecting the yamen runners and troops to maintain public order, Zhang Shen began to further build the new city.
Food is the most important thing for people. As long as people have enough to eat, the population will increase explosively until the carrying capacity of the region is reached.
Zhang Shen’s next step is to increase grain production and increase the variety of grain.
"This plain is not only suitable for growing rice. With the help of magic, other coarse grains can also be grown."
"You can even start a ranch."
"This vast plain has all the conditions for this."
Zhang Shen looked out at the vast plain that stretched for thousands of miles.
“If fully developed, it would be easy to feed millions or even tens of millions of people.”
"By then, there will probably be a lot of people who want to get involved and take a piece of the pie."
"But just because I like to get things for free doesn't mean I like others to get things for free from me."
