Gou cultivates immortality in the wizarding world.

Donglai County next to Yangping County is a good place by the sea, but because of this mountain range, Yong'an County has no way to conduct business with the nearby Donglai County.

To the southeast of Yong'an County is Runyuan County, which is under the control of the Huanxi Sect, one of the three meridian practitioners in Yangping County. To the west is Xu County, which is within the influence of the Sanyin Temple and is under the control of one of Lu Feng's senior brothers.

To the north is the area where Sanyin Temple is located. Further north are two counties that belong to Sanyin Temple, and the rest is the territory of Jiuyang Sect.

Judging from the map, if Lu Feng does not want to fight with the Huanxi Sect and wants to obtain resources, he must either go to his senior brother's Xu County or look to the Black Wind Mountains in the east.

Looking at the map, Lu Feng pondered.

Taoist Xu Feng was also explaining the distribution of resources in the areas around Yong'an County and the areas of enemy and friendly forces.

In the opinion of Taoist Xu Feng, Uncle Master Lu Feng has great ambitions.

Although he is temporarily entrenched in Yong'an County, this small county town definitely cannot restrain the heart of his uncle Lu Feng.

Now Uncle Master Lu Feng wants to refine Taoist soldiers and needs resources.

It’s time for Yong’an County to expand.

While Lu Feng was still studying the map to figure out where to go to get some resources to practice the Four Symbols Soul-Suppressing Technique, a handsome monk in white came up to the Black Wind Mountain outside Yong'an County.

Holding a nine-ring staff and basking in the midday sun, her jade-white skin is faintly shone with a golden Buddha light, making her look sacred and holy.

"I remember that the last time I came here, this was still a bandit stronghold. How come it is so dilapidated now? It also looks like it was polluted by demons and then purified!"

Monk Wuhua inspected Black Wind Village and saw a lot of information from the changes in Black Wind Village.

The last time he came to this village was a year and a half ago.

At that time, this mountain stronghold was still a den of bandits. Monk Wuhua had some friendship with the leader of the mountain stronghold, so he left the long bone banner here, allowing the bandits here to offer sacrifices of flesh and blood from time to time, so that they could use the power of the long banner to fight off the enemy when in danger.

This mountain stronghold is within the territory of Sanyin Temple. If this group of bandits can grow up or degenerate into demons, they will bring some trouble to Sanyin Temple.

Monk Wuhua and Sanyin Temple do not have a friendly relationship, but rather a certain hatred.

But now, when Monk Wuhua came here, he saw that everything in the Black Wind Village was gone.

There are no more bandits here who have anything to do with him.

The magic weapon he placed here is gone.

Even the possibility of demons appearing has disappeared.

Looking at the traces in the village, it seems that this happened only recently.

Looking down the mountain, Monk Wuhua suddenly had an idea in his mind: "The foot of this mountain is Yong'an County. Maybe we can find the answer to what happened here in Yong'an County!"

Monk Wuhua narrowed his eyes slightly and saw that the county town at the foot of the mountain seemed to be a little different from before, but this did not affect Monk Wuhua's determination to go to the county town at the foot of the mountain to find out what was going on.

As a cultivator, Monk Wuhua is the most outstanding disciple of the Huanxi Sect's generation. He has great talent and has passed the three entry barriers at a young age and built a magic altar in his body.

He walked lightly, without any other encumbrance, and in a short while he had arrived in front of the county seat of Yong'an County.

"Hiss! I haven't seen Yong'an County for a while. How come it has become like this?"

Walking on the hard rock road that extended several kilometers outside the county town, Monk Wuhua was somewhat surprised at the changes in Yong'an County.

Even in Runyuan County, where his Cuichun Tower was located, there was no such wide and smooth rocky road. The carriages and pedestrians traveling on the rocky road moved quickly and smoothly.

If his Runyuan County could also build such a rock road, how much business it would bring to his Cuichun Tower.

Subconsciously, Monk Wuhua thought about the changes that would be brought about by the appearance of such a rocky road in his territory.

As he watched, Monk Wuhua squatted down on the road, reached out and touched the smooth rocky road, and frowned:
"This Sanyin Temple has such a magnanimous method. This entire rocky road is actually made of magic. What a bold move!"

The Huanxi Sect also has the means to level the land and transform it into rock.

But all these will consume resources and mana, and mana is the most precious thing for the practitioners in their sects. They are usually very frugal in using it, so there is no way they would waste it to build a road in an ordinary county town.

Moreover, Monk Wuhua walked along the flat rocky road all the way to the gate of Yong'an County, and saw that the city walls of Yong'an County had also been repaired with magic like the rocks under his feet.

Even Monk Wuhua felt distressed by the waste of these resources.

"So much magic power is wasted on these peasants. If I were given the power to practice, I could have created five or six more beautiful skeletons!" Monk Wuhua continued to move forward with a blank expression, but a fire of jealousy suddenly ignited in his heart.

Yong'an County has indeed changed a lot now, and there are only two soldiers standing guard at the city gate.

The merchants and farmers who came and went did not even pay the city fees.

What surprised Monk Wuhua even more was that the two soldiers on guard were full of energy and blood, and even had a body-building aura.

Are you kidding me? Which disciple who has entered the Taoism and reached the body-building stage still comes out to stand guard and do such dirty and menial work?

Such soldiers in the body-building stage, when they come to his Cuichun Tower, can also become his beloved guests and supply essence to the monk Wuhua. They are excellent materials for cultivation.

What a waste! What a waste!
Monk Wuhua felt that the blue veins on his forehead were about to bulge out. He recited a few Buddhist mantras and suppressed the anger and jealousy in his heart. Monk Wuhua entered Yong'an County without being stopped.

After entering the city, Monk Wuhua's eyes widened even more.

The buildings and streets in the city are all brand new.

Although the merchants and pedestrians coming and going were in a hurry, there was a kind of joy and happiness hidden beneath their slightly tired faces.

Many new things that Monk Wuhua had never seen before appeared in Yong'an County, and the people here seemed to have light in their eyes.

Moreover, in the city, Monk Wuhua saw more and more people with abundant energy and blood.

In this Sanyin Temple area, the practice method that was supposed to be a secret now seems to be everywhere and anyone can practice it.

Although the person with the most powerful Qi and blood that Monk Wuhua had seen was only in the early stage of body building, the quality of the common people in Yong'an County was much higher than that in Runyuan County.

"If I could open a Cuichunlou in Yong'an County, the quality of the ordinary people here would allow me to gather spiritual resources 50% faster!" Monk Wuhua became even more jealous, and there were some hideous bloodshot in his eyes.

As Monk Wuhua's emotions changed, some of the aura that leaked out of his body inadvertently made the people around him on the street subconsciously stand aside.

This unusual foreign monk immediately attracted the attention of the Sanyin Temple disciples who were responsible for public security in the city.

After reporting to higher authorities, Lu Feng, who was still in the county government office, immediately saw Monk Wuhua in the city through the eyes of the Yellow Turban Warrior in the city.

"Huh? Where did this monk come from? What is he doing in Yong'an County?"

Seeing the appearance of Monk Wuhua, Lu Feng vaguely felt that this unruly monk Yin Jun did not seem like a righteous person.

Lu Feng recalled what he had done in the past, but couldn't find any way in which he had offended the monk.

Immediately, he could only tell this matter to his master, Taoist Qingwei, who was standing beside him. After listening to Lu Feng's description, Taoist Qingwei pondered for a moment and immediately thought of the origin of this strange monk, so he said:
"I remember now. This handsome little monk should be the pretty bald donkey from the Huanxi Sect in Yangping County. The Huanxi Sect likes to recruit fair-skinned and tender-looking monks as disciples to help them comprehend the Way of Joy!"

"Happy Sect! Monk!"

Lu Feng was stunned when he heard this. Just now, he saw the location of Runyuan County next door on the map of Yong'an County and knew that it was the territory of the Huanxi Sect.

What a coincidence! A monk from the Joyful Sect immediately came to Yong'an County!
Is this monk here to cause trouble?

Yong'an County has developed well recently. The government has led many projects and provided a large number of high-quality jobs.

The workers in the county town have now become the new elite in Yong'an County.

The farmers in the countryside of Yong'an County originally wanted to wait until the disaster caused by demons outside the city subsided before returning to the countryside to farm. However, after becoming workers in Yong'an County, even now that Lu Feng has cleared out the demons in the countryside, not a single worker on the construction site in the county has asked to return to the countryside.

Farming in the countryside is not as fun as working in a county town.

I can get paid, eat well, go to free school, and practice kung fu. This kind of life is so much better than working in the fields in the countryside. I have no intention of going back to the countryside at all.

Moreover, as long as one person in the family becomes a worker, the whole family can benefit, at least they will have no worries about food and clothing.

If you work harder, you can buy a house in the county town and settle down there permanently.

In just a few months, the benefits brought by Lu Feng's work-for-relief policy and vigorous development of infrastructure projects have become particularly evident in Yong'an County, bringing about earth-shaking changes to the residents in the city and the refugees outside the city.

These changes also spread to several nearby counties along with merchants traveling between the counties.

According to Taoist Xu Feng's statistics, in the past month, the population of Yong'an County has exceeded 10,000, and is still growing rapidly at a rate of several hundred people per day.

The needs of ordinary civilians are the simplest. As long as they have enough food to eat and a good place to live, they will go anywhere.

Hearing about the peaceful and prosperous life in Yong'an County, farmers from some villages in nearby counties have brought their families to Yong'an County.

The entire Yong'an County has become a whirlpool under Lu Feng's management, constantly siphoning off the population and resources from the surrounding counties.

Runyuan County is one of the counties closest to Yong'an County, and the current development of Yong'an County has also siphoned off the population of Runyuan County.

And Runyuan County is the territory of the Huanxi Sect. Could it be that this Hua Monk is here to call for punishment?

When Lu Feng thought of this possibility, he felt inexplicably guilty.

Although he was not afraid of the Joyful Sect next door, it was still somewhat unkind to dig up the foundation of other people's forces.

However, after asking his master, Taoist Qingwei, he learned that Sanyin Temple and the neighboring Huanxi Sect were not on good terms. Lu Feng's guilty conscience and uneasiness were immediately gone.

Dealing with enemies and dealing with friends are naturally two completely different mentalities.

"Monk, I hope you don't do anything out of line. Otherwise, you can't just come and go as you please in my territory!"

Before the monk from the Joyful Sect committed any crime, Lu Feng did not have the time to look for the trouble with this monk.

After instructing Taoist Xu Feng to let people in the city pay more attention to the whereabouts of this monk, Lu Feng didn't bother with this monk from the Joyful Sect anymore.

Lu Feng is very busy now, apart from planning the general direction for Yong'an County.

He also needs to sacrifice and refine the official seal spiritual realm, and he also needs to refine Taoist soldiers.

In the battle of Black Wind Mountain, Lu Feng captured ninety-four demons.

The monsters under the command of the Black Tiger Monster are all good materials for refining Taoist soldiers.

Lu Feng classified these demons into different categories according to the different innate abilities they acquired when they degenerated into demons.

After a careful look, I found that among these ninety-four demons, sixty-three of them had acquired some enhanced innate abilities in their flesh and blood.
Such as: thick skin, strong strength, strong bones, sharp claws and teeth, night vision, keen sense of smell
Such innate abilities are not of much help to Lu Feng. At most, they can be used to study the root of the awakening of such innate abilities of these demons and enhance Lu Feng's understanding of the demon bodies.

Lu Feng didn't have time to perform special targeted rituals for this type of monsters, so he directly planted Taoist seeds in all of them, and taught them the Thick Earth Immortal Body to refine them into Yellow Turban Warriors.

The Yellow Turban warriors are strong and powerful, and can also control the energy of the earth.

They are the best civil engineering cattle and horses, and are also the most versatile Taoist soldiers in Yong'an County.

The original ten Yellow Turban strongmen were all praised after being used under the command of the Taoist priest of Sanyin Temple. As the scale of civil engineering projects in Yong'an County expanded, the ten Yellow Turban strongmen were fully booked and were almost overwhelmed.

Now dozens of demons have been captured from the Black Wind Village, and sixty-three Yellow Turban Warriors can be refined, which just alleviates the shortage of Yellow Turban Warriors.

This will inject tremendous impetus into the infrastructure projects in Yong'an County.

Moreover, in order to make it easier for Xu Feng's workers to use the Yellow Turban Warrior, Lu Feng also specially refined a Yellow Turban Warrior talisman. The Yellow Turban Warrior can be activated by simply infusing it with internal energy in the Qi Yang Realm, and through careful command, the Yellow Turban Warrior can carry out more detailed commands.

Of course, such command is limited to commanding the Yellow Turban Warriors to work. If any worker in the city wants to use the Yellow Turban Warriors to do evil, the Yellow Turban Warriors who have set restrictions on their soldiers will immediately capture the criminals and wait for the city's law enforcement officers to decide their fate.

The internal energy in the Qi-nourishing realm is also a basic resource for the Yellow Turban Warrior, who is essentially a demon.

Distributing the Yellow Turban Warriors to the workers in the city who are in the Qi-nourishing Realm and the disciples of the Sanyin Temple can be considered a way of hiding soldiers among the people and utilizing the practitioners in Yong'an County to help support the Yellow Turban Warriors' Taoist soldiers.

Anyway, these Yellow Turban Warriors will only listen to Lu Feng's orders. Without his permission, no one else can use the Yellow Turban Warriors. (End of this chapter)
