Chapter 151, the difficult immigration road
"Everyone hides deeply. If it weren't for the reshuffle of the world, these old foxes wouldn't know when they would hide!"
Looking at the information collected in his hand, Li Mu couldn't help but sigh. If these people had not been exposed on their own initiative, he wouldn't have known that there were so many top masters in the world.
The top ten newly released martial arts forces, each of which has top experts in charge. The most bizarre thing is that these guys are not hidden masters, but famous figures in the world.
For example: Jie Feng, the leader of the Beggars' Sect, suddenly had a flash of inspiration recently, and he broke through the realm with a flash, becoming one of the few top masters in the world.
If he was the only one who had the adventure, maybe Li Mu would believe it.
However, Master Jin Guang, the head of the Emei Sect, Tao Sanyi, the head of the Yandang Sect, Xue Rulong, the leader of the Shenlong Sect, Murong Yunhai, the Murong family, Jiyuan Zen Master Lingyin Temple, and Guangren Zen Master Famen Temple have all had adventures recently and joined the Great Top Club.
One can be a coincidence, and a group of people follow it, that would be a bit unreasonable.
You should know that there are more than a dozen people in the Five Mountains Sword Sect who are stuck at the top of the first-class level, but they have never encountered any adventures.
With so many old fools in the world, Li Mu finally understood why the Five Mountains Sword Sect ended miserably in the original work. Compared with these old players, the Five Mountains Sword Sect is too young.
It seems that there are hints in the original work that when Ren Woxing was in Shaolin, Linghu Chong hid behind the plaque, Yue Buqun, Zuo Lengchan and others knew nothing, but Jie Feng and Fang Zheng were able to play the lettering game.
There are many martial arts masters who can use their fingers to engrave words on wooden stakes. It is rare that they do not make any sounds, and they also have to hide them from the many masters on the scene.
After sighing, Li Mu asked, "Senior Brother Wang, have the person who made the rankings found out?"
It seems to be just an ordinary ranking list, and the ranking is generally fair, just like it was created by people from the world who have nothing to do after eating, but Li Mu would not think so.
It is not that simple to collect the strength of major forces. Even if it is just an open strength, it is not something you can find out just by looking at it.
This ranking list will not only give rankings, but also make the reason for being on the list, which will look convincing.
Without the large forces operating behind the scenes, it would be impossible to be so meticulous. At least, before the detailed information collected from the sect, Li Mu did not know that the strength of the Buddha Sect actually surpassed the Sun and Moon Divine Sect.
Moreover, this ranking has a meaning of inspiration. In the past, there was only a vague ranking among major forces, but it has never been mentioned explicitly.
For example, the three factions of Huashan, Wudang and Shaolin have staged scenes of the emperor taking turns in the past decade, but that was carried out secretly. On the surface, everyone's status is still the same, and no one is higher.
Now that it is suddenly stabbed to the bright spot, it is fine for the old fox, but the younger generation will inevitably be stimulated.
If we provoke it for a while, there will be fun among the major forces that are close to the rankings. If there are already conflicts, it will be even more exciting.
Wang Buyao shook his head: "No. Except for the time when the rankings were thrown out in Kaifeng, this Bai Xiaosheng person seemed to have never appeared before.
Now all major forces in the world are looking for him. If Bai Xiaosheng really existed, it would never be possible to avoid everyone's sight."
Li Mu nodded and said thoughtfully: "Since you can't find someone, you don't have to waste time on him.
I have a premonition that this ranking will appear. Now it is just the top ten forces in the world. Maybe tomorrow it will be a ranking of experts or a weapon chart.
The purpose is to provoke disputes in the world.
Jianghu has just completed the reshuffle, and everyone is busy digesting the results of the war. I think there should be a period of peace."
The emergence of the top ten forces is not smooth. While major martial arts forces form alliances, killing is also indispensable.
Not only were small and medium-sized forces tragically destroyed, but several first-class forces were killed because they stood in the wrong team.
Without exception, the Demon Cult is responsible for taking the blame. Dongfang Bubai's name has become a little more famous, but no one has yet to become interested in eliminating demons.
With the emergence of the alliance, the crisscrossing between major forces has become more and more complicated.
After the chaos, there was great rule. Now the major forces checked and balanced each other, and many disputes in the world were suppressed.
The people in charge are all old foxes. If they are absolutely necessary, everyone will not provoke a war and make the fisherman profit.
Suddenly, Li Mu found that his black hand seemed not very qualified. He didn't even understand who his opponent was, so he took action to overturn the situation in the world without authorization.
The current situation is obviously out of control. None of the top ten forces in the world are soft persimmons.
Even the Aristocratic League, which ranks at the bottom, can produce forty or fifty first-class players, plus hundreds of second-class players, and its comprehensive strength can almost keep up with the Huashan School more than ten years ago.
This is just an open power, and no one knows whether it is hidden in secret.
Including those alliances that are mixed with fish and dragons, it should not be underestimated. Although there are not many top experts, the number of second- and third-rate warriors below is definitely enough.
The curtain has been opened, and now the director should retire and hand over the stage to the actors.
Li Mu didn't believe that the court would sit idly by the way.
At this time, not only the one in the palace can't sleep, but also the civil servants and families are also restless.
In essence, everyone forms an alliance to eat meat. The world is divided up and no more profits can be obtained in a short period of time. Everyone will inevitably extend their hands to other places.
The second and third-rate gangs that originally needed to look at the colors of the aristocratic families, but now they have more alliance power to rely on, will they still be human with their tails?
Perhaps in a short time, everyone will be afraid of it. But as time goes by, there will always be actions that are not afraid of death.
Once the battle starts, a single family can't beat an alliance. Even if you can rely on the power of local governments, it will be difficult to gain the upper hand.
Li Mu had already made up his mind: a group of civil servants knelt in front of the emperor, begging the emperor to take action to clean up the world.
...
"Zheng, we have encountered trouble in immigration work. The natural environment overseas is harsh, and it is difficult for immigrants to adapt to the local climate and environment, and the mortality rate is enough.
The overseas environment is even more unsuitable for martial artists to practice, and the responsible disciples also complain that we have to temporarily slow down our immigration progress.
In addition, the cost of immigration is also quite large. On average, one immigrant is sent to settle down, and the cost is almost up to two cows."
Zhang Bufan, who is in charge of the mundane affairs in the family, complained.
It can be seen from his sad face that he should have been under a lot of pressure recently.
The ancestors were domineering back then. When the world was in decline, they arranged a spirit gathering formation with the power of the mountains and rivers of Jiuzhou, delaying the martial arts fortune in China.
The spiritual energy gathers in China, and the Central Plains, with the most mountains, rivers, and veins, has become the center of the martial arts world.
Even at the beginning of the dynasty, the mountains, rivers and earth veins were destroyed, but the formation was not completely destroyed.
But at this time, the spiritual energy no longer gathers at the mountains and rivers, but scatters throughout the Jiuzhou land.
It’s fine for other areas, as long as there are mountains, rivers, dragon veins, they can always retain some spiritual energy. It’s embarrassing to lack islands with famous mountains and rivers, and there is no ability to gather spirits at all.
Of course, the greater possibility is that no monks settled. When the world is in decline, no one takes measures to gather spiritual energy.
I think that the Western Regions, Fusang and other places also have spiritual energy retention. The concentration of spiritual energy in some caves and blessed lands is even above the destruction of Middle Earth. It is obvious that experts have used their means.
Unfortunately, Li Mu's strength is not enough. If he can reach one or two levels, he might be able to imitate the ancients and create a reduced version of the spirit gathering array.
After rubbing his forehead, Li Mu said helplessly: "Let's explore immigration work slowly and reduce the mortality rate as much as possible. Anyway, at least tens of thousands of people have to be sent to Yizhou every year.
The disciples in the sect complained and implemented the rotation system. Young disciples with potential do not need to be arranged, so as not to affect their martial arts practice.
It is too much, and this is only temporary. After a few years, the wasteland on the island will be reclaimed and the immigration costs will gradually drop."
After being in the world for a long time, I will become numb to the dead. The mortality rate of 20 to 30 is very cruel, but at least it is a path, which is better than staying in my hometown and waiting for death.
Before embarking on the road to immigration, I explained it clearly in advance. I would like to go out and fight and sign up. Li Mu did not force anyone to participate.
The road they chose was their own choice, and if they fell halfway, they could only be considered as their destiny.
The Huashan School can only provide basic survival guarantees. The only person who is accompanied by local doctors can only deal with ordinary colds at most, and the cure rate cannot be guaranteed.
There is no need to think about better medical conditions. This kind of thing can only be done by one or both. I have never heard of forced doctors to prescribe medicine and get good things.
Where can a truly capable doctor not be able to survive? He has to live with himself and go to sea to fight for life?
There is no need to consider the return rate of immigration. If immigrants could make money, maritime merchants would have done it long ago. Transporting immigration to overseas these days is destined to be thankless.
Just by the benefits brought by land reclamation and farming, I am afraid that the cost will not be recovered for twenty years. Other industries cannot develop before immigration has formed a scale.
The most important thing is that only land can stabilize people's hearts, which is incomparable to any other industry.
Only when the fields are cultivated, grain is planted, and the joy of a bumper harvest can immigrants take root.
With the power of the Huashan Sect, tens of thousands of people are sent over every year, and the disciples in the sect complain, which is enough to prove the difficulty of immigrating overseas.
Just think about the kind of migration of millions of people at one time. In the 21st century, there are not many countries in the world that can organize such large-scale immigration activities.
