The Fairy Just Wants To Lie Down

Chapter 429: Tiandao and Li Changsheng

  Chapter 429 Heaven and Li Changsheng

  Asgard 114 years.

  In a good year, the Immortal Palace received 600,000,000 catties of grain.

  In some places, there is suspicion of comparisons, and the increasingly exaggerated reporting of yield per mu has made the local city lord's mansion miserable.

  Because of Li Changsheng's obsession with the rule of law, as well as the many times of abuse of power by aristocratic families, dignitaries, and officials. As a local management institution, the City Lord's Mansion has been domesticated into a mere tool with extremely limited power.

  For the most important food tax in the farming society, they can't even touch it. They can only mechanically complete the orders of the fairy palace.

  But now too many people are handing over food indiscriminately, according to the procedures, localities need to verify it. One is to prevent the local government from using the good harvest as an excuse to increase taxes, and the other is to protect the local government.

  The City Lord's Mansion has reported the situation, as long as the situation is guaranteed to be correct, no matter what happens, they can be exempted from responsibility.

   Commonly known as dumping pot.

  Li Changsheng's desktop is also piled up like a mountain, which is basically the situation of grain collection in various regions. For this reason, Qingxuan, Taiyin Xingjun, Zhu Xue and others also need to help review the ledger compiled by the lower-level department.

  Although the actual work has been done by the department responsible for collecting grain, they only need to confirm the stamp. Asgard monks with a hundred years of administrative memory have long been familiar with the road, and basically there will be no problems.

   "But still to watch."

  Li Changsheng lay in Taiyin Xingjun's arms, holding the account book in one hand, and comforting Zhu Xue who was dissatisfied due to the temporary increase in work with the other.

"If you don't look at it today, the people below will dare to be perfunctory tomorrow, and will dare to fool you the day after tomorrow. And sometimes the people follow blindly, and there are too many people in some areas, and sometimes it is not enough to deal with emergencies, so I need to tell them the truth. "

   "It is imminent to return part of the food to the people in the form of rewards."

   Nowadays, there is a trend of comparison in many areas, and whoever pays more food is honored. But face is more important than life to many people, and some old people even feel that they don't have a few years to live, so it's better to pay all the food.

  Some people don’t have many grains of rice in their stomachs, and they tighten their belts and brag about how much they have paid.

  For such a stupid child, Li Changsheng felt coaxed. It is definitely not possible to send the food back directly. Regardless of the workload involved, most people will not accept it.

  So it is necessary to distribute some food to everyone in the form of rewards to ensure their living needs.

  In this way, it will not hurt the self-esteem of the people, and it will also reduce the workload.

   "As a king, you should be a role model for the world, Shushu, how can you say that you are tired?"

  Zhu Xue muttered dissatisfiedly: "But I'm not a king, and the fairy elder promised me to play with me this year."

   "The poor Taoist wants Shushu to be the king."

"Why?"

   "This is a family business that Pindao managed to acquire with great difficulty. Of course, it must be passed on to those closest to him. Look at the emperors of the mortal dynasty hundreds of years ago, how can it be passed on to outsiders?"

   Li Changsheng said with a serious face, the words immediately turned the pure-hearted Zhu Xue from anger to joy, her heart was full of joy, and she laughed two dimples.

  She hugged Li Changsheng's thigh, confirming again and again.

   "I'm the closest, really?"

   "Really, but you have to work hard to become a person worthy of this position."

"OK!"

  Zhuxue's mind is fully open, dozens of hundreds of ledgers are in front of him, and he is dedicated to all tasks, and one person can handle the entire grain collection department.

  The most important thing is that Zhu Xue is absolutely loyal to Li Changsheng. She will not lie, let alone deceive Li Changsheng for her own selfishness.

  The old Taoist next to him couldn't help smiling when he saw this scene, and there were some memories in his cloudy eyes.

  Many years ago, a Taoist also told him so, and then he worked hard for the world for thousands of years.

  At that time, he was as happy as Zhu Xue.

  Perhaps this is the inheritance.

  Heaven and earth come and go, countless celestial beings appear and fall, all of which are fleeting, but the way of heaven and immortals last forever.

   "Xiaoqi, how about playing two games with me?"

  Li Changsheng's gentle voice like a spring breeze interrupted Qingxuan's recollection. He looked up and saw an ordinary face as before, with a slight smile on his mouth.

   Or the figures overlap, or it may be that the Taoist has not changed from the beginning to the end.

   "It's been a long time since I played chess with Xianchang."

  Qingxuan didn't refuse, and sat in front of the chessboard dragging the body of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man.

  As a master of talismans, he has always had few opponents in chess, and he prefers to play chess in terms of entertainment. Compared to Li Changsheng who is proficient in everything, Qingxuan is very single-minded.

  The high judgment was made, so the gap will naturally widen.

  Li Changsheng failed to give birth to Qingxuan, and soon lost a game.

  Qingxuan said modestly: "Immortal Elder has many hobbies, and invests very little in chess, but he is only a little worse than me."

  Although it is modest, what he said is indeed the truth. After spending the same amount of time, Qingxuan didn't think he could beat Xianchang.

  Even if he was given 4,000 years of life, he probably wouldn't have 1/3 of Li Changsheng's ability. Take supernatural powers as an example, he can learn a dozen or twenty at most, and he will definitely not learn thousands of them.

  Li Changsheng frowned and said, "Come again."

"OK."

  Qingxuan waved all the chess pieces back to the chessboard, then he smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and said, "I invite you first."

  Li Changsheng picked up the white stones and randomly dropped them in the middle. When it was Qingxuan's turn, he also dropped sunspots at random, but before they landed on the chessboard, his heart sank suddenly.

  The chessboard in front of him was infinitely enlarged, and it seemed to turn into heaven and earth in an instant.

  And every time a chess piece is dropped, it is like lifting a mountain.

   "..."

   Then Qingxuan lost for a day and a night.

  The only advantage is that the soul is a little stronger than before, and a small improvement is rare for a strong person of his level.

  Because every time he makes a move, it's like lifting a mountain with his spiritual thoughts. And the chessboard is like a small world, containing all kinds of laws. To play a chess piece, one must have a certain understanding of the world.

   Every time you make a move, you need to rack your brains and think.

   Qing Xuan also protested against this.

   But Li Changsheng is also reasonable.

   "The chessboard is like the world. Playing chess is not only about playing chess, but also about understanding the world. Xiaoqi, you are already at this level, don't you understand?"

   "I'm doing this for you, maybe you will break through to the peak of Huashen in a few more games."

  The Taiyin Xingjun next to him also nodded in agreement, as long as it was said by Li Changsheng, she nodded in praise. As far as Qingxuan knew, this rabbit spirit was probably also questioning the immortal in the boudoir.

  Qing Xuan took a deep breath and said, "Come again."

  During the game between the two, the world is still full of spring.

  —————

  Asgard 115 years.

  A monk crossed Kyushu, returned to Tianzhou from the East China Sea, and informed Xiangong of his visits to various places in the world in recent decades.

  There is an earth fire running across the ocean in the East China Sea, turning thousands of miles of sea into a pot of hot soup, in which all kinds of miasmas are rampant, even monks can hardly survive.

  The original overseas monks basically fled to the ancient land of Youzhou, and many sea monsters from the East China Sea threw themselves into the submerged land of Kyushu.

  In the second half of the year, someone came back from the Immemorial God Mountain, and learned that the monster race was also troubled by many disasters.

  All kinds of natural disasters are rampant, even if it is a golden core monster, sometimes it will be killed by a thunderbolt if it is not careful.

  The whole world fell into calamity.

   Perhaps it was the calm before the disaster, but this year's Tianzhou is also a bumper year.

  Asgard has prepared enough food for the entire human race to eat and wear for 4 years, according to the standard of one catty per person per day.

  At the same time, the fairy palace hides the wealth of the people's thoughts, and the people don't have to pay the court money every year like the feudal dynasty. After decades of accumulation, the people basically have enough food and clothing, and their families have surplus food.

  According to the standard of one catty of grain per day, the surplus grain in common people's homes can generally last for half a year.

  When Zhao Si and the others entered the illusion again, what they saw was an incomparably huge grain granary. The grain in front of them was piled up like a mountain, at least tens of meters high at a glance.

   There is some kind of array protection on the periphery, which can be known through Xuanben.

"This formation was also developed by Zhu Xue. It is a killing formation whose power has been weakened countless times. Any creature entering it will be attacked by the spirit of the formation. A mortal will die suddenly if he stays in it for a year. die by the day."

   "Consume one spirit stone a day, covering 1000 square meters."

  The investigation team recorded this formation.

  Grain protection formation, a formation specially used to kill mosquitoes, is less harmful to people and consumes less, and can be used in large grain storage warehouses.

  Record: Asgard has applied spells to people's livelihood, which reflects the advanced nature of immortal magic, and its value far exceeds consumption.

   At the same time, it demonstrates the rationality of using the immortal method for people's livelihood.

  Low value, not suitable for modern use.

  Zhao Si saw that Xu Danting wrote a comment about the low value, so he couldn't help asking: "Is this formation low in value? This is a formation that kills grain worms 100% without any additions. How can there be such a technology now?"

   "And I heard that the loss of modern granaries is 0.6%, but it actually reaches 1%. 100 million tons of grain will lose 1 million tons, of which insect pests account for at least 300,000 tons."

  Because of the flood caused by the Dragon Palace not long ago, Zhao Si was assigned to the granary rescue mission for a few days, from which he learned some information that he had not been able to access before.

  Xu Danting replied: "The current food is relatively cheap, which is not enough to make up for the value of Lingshi. We can still afford the loss of insect damage, but Lingshi can't."

   "The weight of the standard spirit stone of Asgard is 109 grams, but ours is 10 grams, which is the new standard fourth-grade spirit stone."

  Lingshi, as a hard currency among monks, often acts as a currency.

  Hyundai has also formulated corresponding standards. In fact, it is based on the existing currency system. The quality is divided into upper, middle and lower grades, and the weight is divided into six grades.

  The weight unit corresponds to one, five, ten, fifty, one hundred.

  The main reason is that many of the current spirit veins produce finely divided spirit stones, which are easy to break, and the cost of remelting them together is too high.

  So the broken spirit stone, collectively referred to in the practice world, has become the modern "one dollar".

   "According to the current pricing of Lingshi, one gram is equal to 5,000, and it will be hundreds of thousands in a day."

  Zhao Si twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Market pricing is used to harvest rich people. I think that except for top-grade spirit stones, they are basically equivalent to gold."

   "The price is never defined by its own value. This is the case with luxury goods, and so is the food in front of us. Rice and sorghum, in a low-temperature and dry environment, have a shelf life of up to 5 to 10 years. Xiangong's decision-making is impeccable."

  Xu Danting squatted down, grabbed a handful of rice, and looked at it carefully. The grains were smaller than modern ones.

   "It should have been bred to a certain extent, but compared to the modern rice that has been bred for countless generations, it is still a little bit worse."

   China has never lost to others in terms of farming. At present, various genetically modified rice can be planted on most of the land.

  Xu Danting recorded the size and state of the rice. The staple food can well reflect the production of the society, and then deduce the state of the whole society.

"bad…"

  Zhao Si suddenly exclaimed, everyone's eyes gathered together, and then followed the other party's line of sight to look at Daogu.

  I saw the grain pile in front of Zhao Si, under the golden rice, worms crawled out.

  Everyone was stunned.

   Isn't there a formation?

  The Taoist Qingxuan in his memory also found the worm, and the monk in charge of managing the place turned pale from fright, as if his soul had been sucked out of him.

  He stumbled and ran to the grain pile, and with his hand, he pulled away the place where there were insects, and saw the rice that had been eaten into empty husks.

   "How is this possible? The formation has never been closed, and it is checked every three months."

   Qingxuan's spiritual thoughts swept across the entire granary, and with a wave of his hand, all the special milky rice worms were put into his sleeves.

  Afterwards, he was neither angry nor scolded, and said, "Bring over the ledgers related to the formation. If you do your duty, you don't need to be afraid."

   "But this is the food saved by the common people. It is used for the winter. Now it's all in my hands. I'm sorry for the folks..."

  The monk in charge of the granary sat slumped on the ground, not so much for fear of punishment, but more for fear of disappointing the people.

  The human heart is made of flesh, but monks are not made of steel.

  Nowadays, immortals and mortals live together, and monks in many places are native-born locals. They could not continue their cultivation in the Immortal Palace, or they felt that their cultivation was hopeless, so they would choose to return to their hometowns to take up positions.

   Qi refining and foundation building are the vast majority of monks.

   An hour later, after repeated inspections by Qingxuan, the granary did not operate in violation of regulations.

   And Mi Chong has a certain resistance to the attack of the soul.

   This special pest was quickly sent to Li Changsheng, and after some more investigations, he finally came to a conclusion.

  Natural disasters, pests that came into being.

  Yang Cang borrowed this special rice worm to count, and his face turned pale from fright.

   "Heaven wants to destroy our human race! This is God's will!"

  The words of Jue Jue spread to the ears of the great immortals, and there was another turmoil, and the cave doctrine raised its head again.

   There can never be only one voice in a huge collective, and opposition is a normal and inevitable phenomenon.

  Caveism is Escapism, just like during the great flood, it advocates sacrificing the ego to achieve the greater self, and letting the outstanding people enter the cave to take refuge and continue the fire of the human race.

  This kind of thinking is not wrong, and it is more realistic.

   But how to define excellence?

  Li Changsheng asked many people, and he always got very fair long-winded speeches. There were even people like Feixing Daoist who really wanted to continue the fire of the human race, and worked hard to come up with a plan.

   But when asked how to define excellence, everyone was speechless.

  In fact, everyone understands that, of course, the advanced ones with power, power and background are released, then the talented ones are released, and finally a few ordinary people are released to promote morality.

   Li Changsheng was not happy, so the Dongtian faction could only bow their heads.

  The general direction of the human race remains unchanged. Zhu Xue has developed a new formation that can kill this special rice worm, but it costs three times as much spiritual stone.

  At the end of the year, the weather starts to get colder.

  A fox fairy came to Asgard.

  Qingqiu Fox Immortal Luoshui, with stunning talent and color, with a veiled face and a holy demeanor.

  She said to Li Changsheng: "Fellow Daoist, I have a way to solve the calamities in the world."

   "What method?"

   "To be in harmony with the Tao, the world depends on you."

  Li Changsheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he stepped in front of the fox fairy, grabbed the opponent's snow-white neck, and instantly pierced through the opponent's body protection method with a flash of thunder.

   Grabbing the opponent like this, and slowly lifting it into the air. The flickering thunder entangled the lifeblood of the fox fairy, and the opponent would fall instantly with just one thought.

  The fox fairy veil fell to the ground, revealing a face so beautiful that it took one's breath away, there was no fear in the eyes.

   It was this fearlessness that Li Changsheng noticed.

  How many years have passed, there are still people in the world who are not afraid of themselves. If there is, there is only one.

   "What is the virtue of being poor, and what is worthy of the heaven's concern?"

   "The heaven and the earth are originally perfect, if you exist, it will no longer be perfect."

  The fox fairy's eyes were slightly closed, and he passed out completely.

  Li Changsheng put it down, and then let the rabbit take care of it. About a month later, the fox fairy woke up again. She knew everything she had done and what she was doing.

  But only this time, he felt awe of Li Changsheng.

  ———

  Asgard 116 years.

  The first snow fell in Tianzhou, the earth put on winter clothes, and the temperature kept dropping.

   This lasted for a full year, and the wind and snow never showed signs of stopping. The wild animals that survived in Tianzhou because the immortals changed the world, have now migrated into the ancient sacred mountain.

  In the entire Tianzhou, there are only human races and captive domestic animals left.

   This year, the people of the world lived in cold and boredom.

   Asgard provided the people with sufficient food as scheduled, just as the people handed over their own food unconditionally.

  In the same year, the construction of the Earth Fire Array began.

   People who are unable to carry out production activities are involved in it. One or two mortals can't help, but when the number rises to ten million, it will be a force that cannot be underestimated.

  Looking at the snowflakes falling from the sky, Li Changsheng felt more and more that the world was sick.

  He is determined to fight the world.

  Qingxuan asked: "How can man overcome the sky?"

  The investigation team standing behind him outside the long river of history also has the same doubts.

  I saw the Taoist in Tsing Yi with a slight smile on his face, and said lightly: "Everything in the world is one of the ways of heaven. The sky will not abandon me, and no one can be the enemy. If the sky abandons me, it is the way of death."
