For Dahuaishan, the entire summer is probably the quietest period.
Yuelu Sect and Tianhe Sect already knew that Chen Huaisheng and his party had reestablished their foothold in Dahuai Mountain, and their momentum was not small, but they did not react much.
The losses last winter were really too heavy. This summer has passed in a flash, and autumn is about to begin, and we have to face winter again. Who knows what the situation will be like this winter?
If it is still the same as last year, or even worse, and one's own survival is in question, who can take care of a large Huaishan Mountain?
This also gave Chen Huaisheng and his gang a chance to breathe.
But the respite was too short.
After basically moving away from Mang Zhong, the period of time during the summer heat is the most leisure time for everyone on Dahuai Mountain to settle down and practice at the same time.
But it only lasted less than three months.
As soon as the summer heat has passed and before the white dew arrives, the weather turns colder. This makes Chen Huaisheng feel cold in his heart. Could it be that this winter will be another brutally cold winter?
We all know that the earlier the weather gets colder, the earlier winter comes, and the colder the weather, the greater the chance that the monsters in the forbidden land will come out, and even the higher their level will be.
This round of demonic beast surge last winter has frightened everyone. The losses were huge beyond everyone's imagination. Even the battle with Baishimen and the Yuelu Sect could not stop the Chonghua Sect.
How much loss there was, but a wave of monsters killed one-third of the foundations, plus a real person from the Zi Mansion. This is simply unimaginable.
This is probably one of the main reasons why the Chonghua faction made up their mind to move south to Jijun. Even Li Yu, who originally didn't agree with the move south to Jijun, had to succumb to the sect's opinion on this issue. This loss was really too painful.
It was difficult for the Chonghua sect to recover in ten years.
Of course, it is not just the Chonghua Sect, almost all the sects and families in the four states of Hebei have suffered huge losses, but the problem is that this is not the case in Great Zhao. Although the losses caused by the monster wave are much greater than in previous years, compared with Hebei
Compared here, it is simply not worth mentioning.
Fortunately, the Chonghua faction had made some preparations for moving south in the early stage, otherwise the losses might have been even greater.
But as a result, the Chonghua Sect, which had already begun to gain momentum, has now suffered another heavy blow, and the gap with the two old enemies of the Baishimen and the Zijin Sect has widened again, especially the Baishimen.
According to the information we have, the number of real people in the Zifu in Baishimen is still growing rapidly. It has now expanded to nine people, and the number of foundation builders has exceeded that of the Chonghua sect at its peak, reaching about forty people. This is already
Second only to the strength of several super sects.
Of course, the increase in the number of Zifu real people and foundation-building masters in Baishimen is not all due to their own advancement in practice. Some casual cultivators are still recruited to join, and most of the Zifu and foundation-building experts who have advanced in internal practice are still at the level of cultivation.
The lower stages of Zi Mansion and Foundation Establishment, such as the Yumui Realm of Zi Mansion and the initial stage of Foundation Establishment.
But no matter what, this increase in strength is real and no one can ignore it.
The Chonghua sect has shrunk rapidly in Wolong Ridge. It will probably only retain thirty or forty people in Longlinyuan. The rest have begun to move back to Jijun after Mangzhong. Fortunately, there is also Li Yu.
Stay there for the winter.
Although the weather is getting colder, Chen Huaisheng follows the same pattern as last year. No matter what, it will still take more than two months before the monsters appear. Last winter, monsters appeared on a large scale due to light snow. Even if it goes further for half a month,
Month, there are still about seventy days left from now.
For everyone on Dahuai Mountain, these seventy days are also extremely precious.
The construction of the entire Dahuai Mountain protective formation is still proceeding in an orderly manner. This is the most important part and the one that Dahuai Mountain depends on for its survival.
However, in view of the special table mountain terrain of Dahuai Mountain, Gou Yiwei's suggestion is to set up only early warnings below, not attack arrays, and concentrate the main spiritual materials and magic weapons at the top, that is, in a circle around the top of the mountain.
Set up a magic circle and only guard the last link.
The investment in setting up the magic circle was too great. I went to Bianjing twice to purchase related spiritual materials. More than half of the four thousand spiritual sands were spent. There was not much left. However, there was still some investment in the follow-up, which was really unsustainable.
.
Cichunping's area is too large and its terrain is special. It was designed for a sect with three hundred disciples. It was too advanced for Chen Huaisheng and his group, but there was no way to change it.
In short, the spiritual stones are not enough anymore.
"It looks like I need to go out for a walk." Chen Huaisheng deeply felt that it was difficult to run a family, especially a family that was just starting out.
Without enough foundation and savings, you simply can't afford it. I thought my original savings were already quite generous, but that was for an individual. It was indeed very substantial and even abundant, but for a group of more than fifty people
, that is far from enough.
In fact, he shouldn't go out at this time, but should stay in the mountains to practice well. But if he doesn't go out, who will?
Zhao Sitian? Tang Jingtian? Or Zeng Guolin?
It's not suitable, and they can't afford to take on this important role.
As for other levels of Qi refining, it is even less impressive.
Chen Huaisheng never expected that his first problem after "establishing his own business" would be insufficient spiritual stones and insufficient financial resources.
No wonder they say that wealth and law are the most important thing in a couple, but now I realize it.
Just a mountain-protecting array cannot be defeated without the investment of hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones. This is even if Gou Yiwei disassembled many spiritual materials from Yunzhongshan's array and brought them over, but it is still far from enough.
Go borrow? The Min family and the Sun family may be able to borrow 30,000 to 50,000 spiritual stones, but it is still not enough, and if you borrow too much, you will always have to pay it back. In the final analysis, Dahuaishan does not have a stable source of income.
Even if the Chonghua faction wants to abandon the Hebei side, it is estimated that they still want to retain the trade channel in Baitapu, but it depends on how much the Hua faction is willing to invest.
After all, thousands of miles apart, there is nothing that your Chonghua Sect can't handle. Once other sects enter Fuyang Road, such as the Ning Family of Youzhou, or the Fengyi Sect, the Sun Family will also give this profit share to
Do you value Chinese culture?
It is impossible to think about it. If you are not in your position and do not seek political advice, you will naturally not be qualified to enjoy this benefit.
Even if Chen Huaisheng wants to use the Sun family's trade channels at that time, he will probably have to pay more.
It's difficult.
Chen Huaisheng really wanted to stay in the mountains and use this period of time to improve his spiritual strength. In the past few months, he had been taking purple jade dates and saving money in various ways. He thought he was almost ready and spent a whole day.
After two months of seclusion, I have the opportunity to break through the realm and advance to the seventh level of foundation building.
But now he knows that if he doesn't solve the problem of the spiritual stone and the problems needed for the magic circle, he won't be able to practice breakthroughs with peace of mind. Instead, he will lose both ends.
Jing Zhonghong, Ju Zhenzhen, and Yang Husheng are all practicing in seclusion.
Since others have high hopes for him, he must live up to this trust, so Chen Huaisheng also gives full support to these three people when they want to attack and build foundations.
This is not only an explanation to everyone, but also preparations for the tide of monsters we may face this winter.
Even Chen Huaisheng approved of the retreats of Bao Que, Gu Yunchun, Yu Xianxian, Ling Fan, Xu Beihuai, Cai Jinyang, Tang Wenhu and others.
Approval means supporting him in terms of spiritual materials, treasures and elixirs, but Chen Huaisheng feels it is worth it. Firstly, he can win trust, and secondly, this group of people will be the backbone of Dahuaishan in the future.
On the contrary, Wu Tianen and Gou Yiwei temporarily gave up practicing retreat after self-evaluation.
Gou Yiwei does not have the time or energy, while Wu Tianen thinks that he does not have the strength to attack the fourth level of foundation building now and needs at least two years of accumulation.
"There is no way. Dahuaishan is the first to start here, and Cichunping is so large. It requires nine magic circles to correspond to the gaps at the intersection. Even if it is equipped according to the most basic conditions, it will require a lot of spiritual materials.
There are less than four hundred spiritual sands in the mountain now. If we want to complete it before the frost comes, we will need at least an investment of five thousand spiritual sands..."
Gou Yiwei was also helpless.
It was not easy to complete the Yunzhong Mountain area, and it was moved to Dahuai Mountain, and the area was expanded several times, and the investment was huge. However, this was a necessary investment for a place to gain a foothold and ensure safety. It was just in time to catch up with the current demon beast.
We dare not lower our standards in this regard, otherwise the tragic situation last winter will happen again.
"Does Master Gou have any good suggestions?" Chen Huaisheng looked at Gou Yiwei.
This mode of survival is very unhealthy, but now we have no choice.
"Huaisheng, I haven't gone out much for more than a year, and I have lost all contact with me. To be honest, I don't have any good suggestions." Gou Yiwei shook his head: "A goal like Hualin Garden is the best.
, but you have to wait and see the opportunity.”
"The Yuelu Sect over at Donghe Fishing Ground has learned to be smart. Whenever they encounter a large transaction, they will be more vigilant. It is difficult to succeed in a sneak attack." Chen Huaisheng sighed, "Who else is there?"
Robbery is also a technical job. You can't just rely on your strength to do whatever you want. Does it make sense for you to rob a bag of fish at the fishing ground?
Is it cost-effective for you to grab a bunch of spiritual materials at the spiritual material trading shop?
It's troublesome to cash out, the stolen goods have to be sold at a reduced price, and there's no use keeping them for yourself. These all have to be taken into consideration, so it turns out that Gou Yiwei is so popular.
"There is really no suitable place to go. I'm afraid the only choice is to go to Youzhou." Gou Yiwei thought for a while, "It's not a good place, but there is nothing we can do now. Let's just make do. The risks are high and the benefits may not be satisfactory."
Chen Huaisheng smiled bitterly, how could he still be qualified to dislike this or that?
He has never been to Youzhou, and Gou Yiwei is probably not very familiar with it, but now he has to go to Da Zhao to find a suitable target, and it is a bit too late in terms of time. Since Gou Yiwei can propose it, I am afraid he still has some points.
"Uncle Gou, you have no choice, just do it." Chen Huaisheng spread his hands, hopeless, "Who makes us poor?"
