Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 37
On the twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month, there was heavy snow.

As New Year's Eve approaches, the county government rests, and all the turmoil seems to gradually calm down.

The Zhang family basically didn't make any unnecessary struggles, and obediently handed over the mining rights of the Lingshi mine, which quietly relieved the Zhang faction officials, who were afraid that Zhang Huairen would continue to fight against the Wangfu.

Then they are caught in the middle, but it will be uncomfortable.

…………

The feudal palace, the backyard.

In the quiet room, Qian Yuan chanted a mantra, and with a "huh", a pinch of small flames appeared on the top of his finger, which was the basic technique - the fire ignition technique, which was inferior to the fire bomb technique.

It is such a simple technique that Qianyuan practiced for three days before he could perform it 100%.

At the soul-strengthening stage, monks can practice basic spells, including dust removal spell, water purification spell, body fixation spell, wind control spell, repellent spell, sky eye spell, invisibility spell, ground stabbing spell, quicksand spell, freezing spell and Winding etc.

The technique of repelling objects is the prerequisite for using the magical weapon. The Yufeng Jue can make a person as light as a swallow, and with a light tap of the toe, one can easily jump several feet away.

The Celestial Eye Technique can observe one's cultivation, while the Invisibility Technique allows spiritual power to attach to the whole body, turning the body into a protective color similar to the surrounding environment, making it difficult for people to detect.

Quicksand can turn soil into sand.

Freeze can condense water into ice.

It can be seen that the basic spells are mainly auxiliary, and the offensive spells account for a relatively small proportion. In actual battles, monks in the strong soul stage are still accustomed to using magical weapons or talismans.

But this does not mean that the basic spells are not important.

Sometimes, an inconspicuous basic technique can save a monk's life, such as the concealment technique. Although it is invisible to high-level monks, it is still effective against martial arts masters and below.

Therefore, monks who have broken through to the strong soul stage will spend a period of time practicing basic spells, especially a few offensive spells, which can be cast without talismans.

Like the dead Hu Jinsheng, because he had just broken through to the strong soul stage, he hadn't had time to practice spells, and because he didn't bring a talisman, he didn't even have a chance to save himself.

How sad.

If you practice a certain technique proficiently, then when using the talisman of that technique, not only will the activation time be shorter, but you can also save your soul power.

Therefore, monks often like to have talismans of their best skills on their body.

Looking at the small flames dancing lightly on his fingers, Qianyuan smiled. Until now, he had the feeling of being a monk, a feeling of controlling extraordinary power.

really not bad.

"go with!"

Under the control of Qianyuan's soul power, the little flame shot straight at the opposite wall, but left nothing behind.In addition to the use of cultivation, the quiet room is also used as a place to practice spells. The walls and floors are specially treated.

Otherwise, if one is not well controlled, the house can be burned down.

After practicing the spell for less than half an hour, Qian Yuan felt a little dizzy, which was a sign that the power of the soul was about to be exhausted, so he stopped quickly in fright.

The strong soul stage is still too weak.

Meditating and adjusting breath until the soul is full again, Qian Yuan stood up and punched the Bull Demon Powerful Fist.

It stands to reason that there is no need to practice external skills during the strong soul period. Qian Yuan did this only because of the virtuous energy in his body, and boxing can speed up the absorption and further strengthen his body.

It can also transform vitality through qi and blood, and slightly strengthen the soul, which is better than nothing.

Since the qualifications are not enough, Qianyuan can only make up for it through hard work.

"Your Highness!" Aning called from outside the door.

Qian Yuan retracted his fist, took a towel, wiped his face, and then walked out of the quiet room, Ah Ning was waiting pretty in the corridor, a white fox cloak set off her even more beautifully.

"Your Highness, the annual ceremony is ready, would you like to take a look?"

"Then take a look."

The two of them walked one behind the other, braving the wind and snow, towards the front yard.

Whether it's due to regulations or family affection, the New Year's Day is here, and as the only prince of Daqian who is away from home, Qian Yuanli should prepare a next year's gift and send it to the palace as a congratulation.

This is basic filial piety.

In addition to the palace, Qianyuan had to send a small gift to his brothers and sisters living outside the palace as a token of his affection.No matter how much you fight to the death inside, you still have to live on the surface.

Then there are uncles and some teachers and friends who have to be taken care of, and no one can be left behind.

Qian Yuan didn't have a swollen face to pretend to be a fat man, and the annual gifts he prepared were all local specialties in Yize, such as Yunwu Lingcha, beautiful jade from Qingqiu Mountain, plasters made with red 鱬, and so on.

In addition to local products, two unique gifts were also prepared, namely the blue and white spirits just brewed by the distillery, and the soap produced by the soap workshop in a hurry.

It was all created by Aning.

Whether it's spirits or soap, Qianyuan gave them with ulterior motives. Apart from being a little different, so as not to make his brothers and sisters look down upon him, more importantly, he wanted to advertise for free.

If these two things become popular in God, then expect to make a lot of money.

Of course, no matter how valuable these things are, they are no more expensive than the same annual gift Qianyuan gave to the palace, which is nothing but "Cement Calcination Technology and Equipment Transcript".

Qian Yuan made a lot of determination to send this.

With the production capacity of the cement factory in Yize County, even if the production is expanded and then expanded, a Qingqiu mansion can basically be fed, and if this technology is handed over to the imperial court for operation, it will be spread in the empire within a year or two.

At that time, projects such as water conservancy, road traffic, and fortresses will all benefit from it.

That merit is great.

It can be regarded as Qianyuan's contribution to this world.

Offering cement is considered a great achievement, and it is equivalent to adding a talisman to Qianyuan. I think those people will be a little more cautious in their future actions.

This is what Uncle Zhong mentioned.

Qian Yuan inspected it and said with a smile: "It's well prepared, let's send it out like this." Ah Ning is still very reassuring in doing things, and how much should be sent to whichever family has been considered inside and out.

"promise!"

The gift-giving team is composed of a Xuanjia guard and ten personal guards. After the gift is delivered, they will also be responsible for bringing back the annual gift from the palace.

…………

In the next few days, Qian Yuan practiced spells while discussing with Uncle Zhong his development plan for the coming year.

After three months of hard work, the Li family collapsed, and the Zhang family began to turn their tail between their legs. Qianyuan basically took control of Yize County. How to govern in the coming year is the first big test before him.

Not to mention, there is also the threat of the monster clan's army in the spring of the coming year.

The plan for a year lies in the spring, so how to do it now has to come up with a charter.

The two often discussed this matter late into the night.

It's New Year's Eve in a blink of an eye.

Although Yu Yutian is a high-magic plane, the customs of New Year's Eve are the same as those on Earth. The feudal prince's mansion is decorated inside and outside, red lanterns are hung high, New Year pictures and peach charms are hung up, which is very festive.

The only difference is probably the worship of gods and ancestors.

Because ghosts and gods really exist, the sacrifices are naturally extraordinarily solemn, and there is no room for sloppyness. Fortunately, Qianyuan is outside, so there is no need to be tossed every year like in the capital of the gods.

After the sacrifice, Qianyuan accompanied everyone to enjoy the New Year's Eve dinner.

Lively.

The fly in the ointment is that the mansion is full of adults, and there are no children, so there is no sense of the year out of thin air.

After the meal, Qianyuan, as the owner of the house, distributed new year's money to each servant, which was packed in red silk bags in advance to seek good luck.

Of course, Qianyuan didn't forget the half-demon who was still training in the secret base.

After all the fuss, it was already late at night.

When the hustle and bustle passed, Qianyuan felt a sense of loneliness in his heart. He missed his relatives on earth. Presumably, their life this year was not very satisfactory.

This night, Qian Yuan rarely practiced.

He fell asleep.

The next day is New Years.

Before dawn, there were crackling firecrackers in the city. According to the regulations, Qian Yuan, as a parent official, will bring civil and military officials to the Town God's Temple to offer sacrifices this morning.

But before Qianyuan finished dressing, Menzi suddenly came to report that there was urgent news.

Qian Yuan opened the urgent mail and saw that his face turned dark on the spot.
