Chapter 1427 The face that must not be sold!
Li Yao was slightly stunned. It was actually a very simple truth. However, after the natural disaster in the Xingyao Federation, it could be dealt with soon. He had never seen any refugees cause disaster, but he didn't expect it for a moment.
"Although there are many hundreds of thousands of refugees at present, if you don't help them and watch them become a army of ferocious ghosts, it will be a bit of trouble, but it is still within the limit that the Hu Xiao Hall can solve."
Dan Fengzi continued, "I really listened to Zhengyi Zhenren's words, opening the warehouse and releasing grain, attracting millions of victims within a radius of thousands of miles. At that time, the food will still be insufficient, and countless victims will still starve to death. With more corpses, more people will be more dense. The possibility of plague is dozens of times higher. More people will die in the city of Tiger Roar, and their souls will not be dispersed!
In this way, the army of tens of thousands of ferocious ghosts was upgraded to an army of hundreds of thousands or even millions of ferocious ghosts, entrenched on the Hu Xiao City. The Hu Xiao Hall really could not resist it and would be razed to the ground and be destroyed!
Elder Lingjiu said, the lives of the whole family are on their shoulders. How could Duan’s father and son sell the face of Zheng Yi Zhenren?
For Hu Xiaotang, the only correct way is to do this in front of you, so that all the victims can clearly realize that Hu Xiaotang really has no food. If you continue to stay here, you must die. If you want to survive, go to Dongning Mansion!
In this way, only by guiding this disaster to Dongning Mansion can the safety of Hu Xiao Hall be kept!”
Li Yao sighed: "So that's the case, it's really unpredictable!"
"Unpredictable, of course, the most unpredictable thing in the world is the human heart!"
Dan Fengzi sighed and said, "Zhengyi Zhenren wants Hu Xiaotang to open a warehouse and release grain. Is it what he said that "upholding the right path and helping the people"? He just wants to reduce the pressure on Dongning Mansion at the cost of Hu Xiaotang, and try to lead all the victims wandering near Dongning Mansion to Xijiang Prefecture. Hu Xiaocheng comes, so that Bai Lian's mother cannot recruit enough ghost soldiers and ghost troops to completely eradicate the White Lotus Sect!
Hehe, Zhengyi Zhenren is bullying Duan Yuanwu, who has just formed a Nascent Soul, and has insufficient experience in walking in the world of cultivation. Little do they know that his son Duan Tiande is an old ginger who has been in the world of cultivation for a hundred years, so how can he be so easily deceived!
Look, Duan Tiande must be dormant in the dark. If Zhengyi Zhenren really dared to rush forward, Duan's father and son would bite two pieces of meat from him even if he died!"
Li Yao was shocked when he heard this, pondered for a moment, and frowned and said, "No, since all the major sects, including the Ziji Sword Sect, have shipped a large amount of food and arrived within three or two days. Then Hu Xiao Hall can overcome the difficulties by providing one or two days of food. Wouldn't everyone be happy? Why bother so nervous? They are extremely ugly!"
"Hehe, hehehe!"
Dan Fengzi let out a slightly awkward laugh, and did not answer Li Yao's question. He turned the topic very stiffly, "Even if Hu Xiaotang really has enough food for millions of victims to support ten days and half a month, it is impossible to send out half a piece of food!"
Li Yao asked: "Why is this?"
"It's a very simple truth."
Dan Fengzi calculated with his fingers, "This spring disaster, floods and burning winds attacked, and countless fertile land and fertile fields in the southeast are corrupted. Then when the autumn is green and yellow, there will definitely be shortage of food in the cultivation world!
Not only will the spiritual rice such as "Yu Jingzi" consumed by cultivators in daily life will be seriously scarce, but also, when the spiritual rice stored by major sects is eaten up, the demand for food will increase exponentially when cultivators have to fill their stomachs with ordinary rice and wheat!
By then, the food prices will definitely soar, even reaching five times or more than ten times now!
Whoever has a lot of food in his hands is the resources and strength!
Now taking out a basket of grain to help the victims is equivalent to reducing their strength in autumn when the weather is out of reach. Who would have done such a stupid thing?
After the natural disaster, Hu Xiaotang must expand its territory, and it is necessary to use knives and guns. The food it reserves must be exchanged for various war resources. How can it be wasted on these victims in vain?"
"Take a knife and a gun?"
The more Li Yao heard it, the more he became, "What kind of swords and guns are used to fight?"
"After every natural disaster, the Central Plains cultivation world reorganized the pattern, and the major sects fought endlessly."
Danfengzi explained to Li Yao patiently, "The Central Plains is not as small as Wunan, with denser land and strong people, and the contradictions are sharp. The spiritual fields of various sects, the plantations of heaven and earth treasures, the mountains and forests for raising spirit beasts, etc. are already crowded together, and the needle cannot be inserted, and it is within reach. Friction will occur every now and then!
Originally, there were bans and banners from major sects above the land, so they could be safe and sound. The well water did not violate the rivers. However, when a flood or a burning wind came, most of the bans were destroyed and all banners were gone. Who can prove the boundary between each other's sphere of influence, and where is it?
Everyone wants to take more money and take advantage of it. Isn’t it very appropriate to fight for a sphere of influence of one or two miles?"
"oh……"
Li Yao let out a long breath of turbid air, and remembered the strange stories he heard during his inspection along the Wu River. In order to soak up feces, two sectarian sects fell into the armed battle.
"If it is just a friction between the sphere of influence, it will be a trivial matter."
Dan Fengzi smiled again, "What's even more chaotic is that the mountain gate of a certain sect happened to be hit by a natural disaster and was completely destroyed. The masters in the sect fell one after another, and they no longer had the strength to keep the sphere of influence as large as before.
The even more unlucky small and medium-sized sects were uprooted by natural disasters, and most of their disciples died, and a large area of unowned spiritual fields and mountains appeared!
Elder Lingjiu, do you think it is worth using a knife and a gun for such a large land of unlimited land?”
Li Yao nodded and squeezed out two words from his teeth: "Worth it!"
"So, after every natural disaster, these cultivation sects use their own means, show their supernatural powers, and kill and annex!"
Dan Fengzi smiled and said, "For a powerful man like Hu Xiaotang, it doesn't matter whether it is good weather or frequent natural disasters. After weighing the two, it may be better if the natural disasters break out!
Elder Lingjiu, you think about this principle. Hu Xiao Hall originally had half of the fertile soil of Lingtian in Xijiang Prefecture, and its tentacles extended to the nearby prefectures to build a large number of forts, strongholds, and farms.
If the weather is good, their family will have the most food, so it will be very good!
In case of natural disasters, Hu Xiaotang is the strongest sect within a thousand miles of the surrounding area, and its ability to resist disasters is naturally the strongest. Other small and medium-sized sects are all injured and dying, but Hu Xiaotang is only skin trauma and does not hurt the fundamentals!
As long as you survive the natural disaster, Hu Xiaotang can naturally take the opportunity to annex the sphere of influence and various resources of nearby sects. Isn’t that a more cost-effective transaction than harvesting food during good weather?
If not, how could Hu Xiaotang develop to its current level in just a hundred years? It can’t grow ten golden elixirs and two Nascent Souls by just working hard to farm!
To grab the dock and compete for territory, you have to consume a lot of resources. As the saying goes, before the three armies move, food and grass will come first!
The scale of this natural disaster is so large that there must be many sects that have been greatly weakened or even completely collapsed. It is a good time for Hu Xiaotang to achieve great success. How can we use precious war resources to provide relief to the victims first?"
"I see!"
Li Yao was intricate and didn't know what it felt. "Tiger Roar Hall is ambitious, no wonder!"
"Even if you are not ambitious and just want to consolidate your foundation, you will never be able to get the food."
Danfengzi smiled and said, "This is a relationship of one's growth and the other's decline. If Hu Xiaotang really takes out a lot of food to help the victims and eats up its own granary alive, even if they can withstand the invasion of the ghost army, they will be coveted by other sects with sufficient food from all directions!
In this world, people have no intention of hurting the tiger, and tigers are harmful to the hearts of the people. If you don’t eat me, I will eat you! How could Hu Xiaotang put itself on the chopping board and let the mermaid meat?
This has nothing to do with the nature of Duan’s father and son, but involves the tens of thousands of disciples in the Hu Xiao Hall, as well as the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of servants, disciples, and tenants who are dependent on them. Even if Master Kuchan is the master of Hu Xiao Hall, can he use the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people in Hu Xiao City to exchange for the slim chances of millions of disaster victims outside?"
This sentence seemed like a wake-up call, causing Li Yao's mind to buzz.
He looked up at Master Kuchan, but saw Master Kuchan still saving the dead in the dark clouds and ghosts in the distance.
His eyes were slightly closed, and he muttered something, but he couldn't even look at the confrontation between Zhongdao and Duan Yuanwu.
Does the monk want to watch it, can't bear to watch it, or dare not watch it?
If the monk comes to choose, will he forcefully attack Hu Xiaocheng and forcefully open a warehouse and release grain?
"It seems that this face can't be sold!"
Li Yao pondered for a long time, shook his head with a wry smile.
"Of course, it cannot be sold, even if the emperor comes, even if the king comes, even if the king comes, then the gods and demons of the heavens come down to earth to force and induce things together! "
Dan Fengzi was determined and then smiled strangely, "What's more, Zhengyi Zhenren didn't have such a big face, so he had already asked someone to beat him hard!"
"What's the meaning?"
Li Yao was puzzled, "Who dares to slap him in the face as a 'head of Daqian'?"
"Isn't it just Elder Lingjiu?"
Dan Fengzi looked at Li Yao seriously, "Did you forget, how did you sing with Junior Brother Yan at the Longquan Conference three months ago and step on the face of Zhengyi Zhenren into the mud? Do you remember the memories carefully?"
Li Yao: “…”
"The world's number one and the world's second are not a small gap."
Dan Fengzi shook his head and said, "In the past, everyone was frightened by the power of the 'Fan Tian Seal'. Before rejecting the request of Zhengyi Zhenren, they always had to think about it again and again. But now, since the 'Fan Tian Seal' has been proven to have a law to break, Zhengyi Zhenren is not invincible in the world. Then, the courage of the Nascent Souls such as Duan's father and son will naturally grow a little stronger!" (To be continued.)
