Chapter 6: Layout of Cuibei Mountain
As he headed south, Lu Yi soon arrived in Chang'an. Lu Yi asked for information along the way. He heard many rumors in the world, including the news that the Taoist master Wang Chongyang preached in Zhongnan Mountain. This time Lu Yi was also preparing to go to Zhongnan Mountain to see if he could worship this Taoist master.
As I walked all the way to the area of Cuibei Mountain, a loud voice suddenly came from the forest: "I bloomed this mountain and planted this tree. If you want to pass by it from now on, leave it to buy wealth!"
Lu Yi glanced at him, a man and a woman walked in the front, followed by dozens of ragged people. The man was about twenty years old and extremely majestic. He held a mountain-opening axe in his hand. At this time, he was looking at Lu Yi fiercely. The woman looked almost twenty years old and looked quite beautiful.
Lu Yi looked at these people with interest. It was the late Northern Song Dynasty. The people were suffering and many people who could not survive would inevitably become bandits. The most famous of them was the water of Liangshan. And the bandits in front of him were obviously just a group of little thieves.
"Take out the money quickly, otherwise I won't blame you for being polite!" The strong man was furious when he saw Lu Yi not speaking. He swept back and forth with a mountain axe in his hand, which was as if Lu Yi was not obedient and was about to split Lu Yi into two petals.
"That depends on whether you have the ability!" Lu Yi's heart moved, as if he was thinking of something, and he couldn't help but speak out.
"Boy is looking for death!" The strong man was furious and slashed at Lu Yi with a mountain axe.
Lu Yi stood there and didn't move. He saw the mountain opening axe about to split Lu Yi in half. Lu Yi quickly raised his hands and just grabbed the strong man's hand that took the mountain opening axe. The strong man suddenly felt a great force coming, and his hands loosened, and his body retreated uncontrollably.
"You?" The strong man was about to speak, but he saw Lu Yi holding a mountain-opening axe in his hand, exerting force with both hands, slashing on a huge rock. With a "boom", the huge rock was split in half by Lu Yi and emitting on the ground.
The strong man suddenly became silent, and the strong man even fought with each other, sweat dripping down his cheeks. He gritted his teeth, as if he had made a decision. The strong man looked up at Lu Yi and said, "It's because I don't know Mount Tai. If I want to kill and cut him, I will go to the end of the day, but please let go of the people behind me!"
Lu Yi was slightly surprised. Although this strong man had no brains, he was a little loyal. These people were not bad people. They were just a group of poor people who could not live on. Lu Yi naturally didn't want to see them as much as possible.
When the girl heard the strong man's words, she walked forward and stood with the strong man. Although she didn't say anything, she had already expressed everything with her actions. The dozen or so young men behind the strong man hesitated for a while and all took a step forward.
"You go! With your ability, it's better to do less of this kind of thing in the future, otherwise you will only lose your life for no reason!" Lu Yi couldn't help but look up at the bandits in front of him and couldn't help but say.
Lu Yi shook his head, put down his mountain axe and prepared to leave. Lu Yi was about to leave, but the strong man strode to Lu Yi, kneeling on his legs and said, "Let me go, my life is yours!" After the strong man said that, the dozen or so young men came over and knelt in front of Lu Yi.
Lu Yi was quite surprised. When he met by chance, even if Lu Yi spared the boy's life, the boy would not have been like this. Originally, Lu Yi didn't plan to pay attention to it, but the strong man's behavior made Lu Yi a little interested.
"Take me to your village!" Lu Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense. He wanted to see what the strong man had to do with the girl. Hearing Lu Yi say this, the strong man looked at each other and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
Led by the strong man and the girl, Lu Yi and his group walked to a mountain village deep in Cuibei Mountain. This mountain village is not big, with about hundreds of people inside, most of whom are old, weak, sick and disabled. Seeing these people wearing rags, life must be very hard.
Wine is bad wine, rice is crumbs, and even minced meat is not seen. Lu Yi did not dislike it and just ate and drank. After the meal, the strong man and the girl led Lu Yi to a small house.
"Tell me! What are your goals?" Lu Yi originally thought that the strong man and the girl had prepared other means to deal with him, but after drinking and eating, nothing happened, so Lu Yi was a little surprised.
"I know you have real skills. Please teach me. No matter what you ask me to do, I am willing!" The strong man knelt on the ground and slowly explained the reason.
The strong man and the girl were originally orphans. The strong man was called Li Er and the girl was called Yang Ruowei. The people in this village were all poor families who could not survive. In order to evade taxes, they became bandits. Because there was no young man, Li Er became the leader of this village and led everyone to survive in a difficult situation.
It is not easy to be a bandit. The life of these people is extremely difficult now, and they are almost at the point of not being able to get out of the way. This time I met Lu Yi and saw that Lu Yi was quite capable. From Lu Yi's behavior, it can be seen that Lu Yi is not a bad person.
They also gave up and didn't expect that Lu Yi would come to the counterfeit village with them. This made the two of them rekindled their hopes, hoping that they could learn the real skills from Lu Yi so that they could survive with the counterfeit village.
Lu Yi was speechless. He thought there was some conspiracy, but he didn't expect it to be the scene in front of him. However, the two people in front of him were very accurate. Lu Yi was not a traitor and evil person, so he was a coincidence.
Lu Yi pondered for a moment, but finally couldn't bear to leave. With the situation of the clique in front of him, it would probably die in a few years. This place is not far from Zhongnan Mountain, and leaving a backhand here is also a good choice.
The next day, Lu Yi called Li Er and Yang Ruowei and made salt in front of them. The green salt in the Northern Song Dynasty was not pure and bitter and unpalatable. However, the salt made by Lu Yi was like white snow, without any bitterness, and was easy to make.
Then Lu Yi handed over the salt-making method to the two of them and told them not to sell large amounts of private salt. They could only sell it little by little, so as not to attract too many people's attention. After all, the foundation of Cuibei Mountain is still shallow and it is not advisable to make a big fuss.
"Fortunately, I studied chemistry in my previous life, and I finally had some use of it!" Looking at the two of them excitedly, Lu Yi thought to himself. In his previous life, Lu Yi studied the method of salt making because he read the novel "Tang Brick". Unexpectedly, he actually had a use of it here.
In the days that followed, Lu Yi practiced "Xuanhuang True Body" while helping Cuibei Mountain improve his life. In the blink of an eye, it was three months. In these three months, Cuibei Mountain had undergone earth-shaking changes.
"Report to the village master, the three village masters and the others are back!"
While Lu Yi was thinking, a young and strong man quickly ran up and shouted loudly as he ran. As soon as the strong man finished speaking, a heroic voice sounded: "Brother, we have made a lot of money this time, and my brother's method is indeed amazing!"
At the beginning, Lu Yi went with Li Er to Chang'an City to sell private salt. Now that the channel has been established, Lu Yi doesn't need to come forward again, but Lu Yi has always controlled the scale of private salt, so it has not attracted much attention during this period.
"I didn't expect that selling private salt would be so profitable!" Lu Yi did not expect that selling private salt would be so profitable. In just three months, he accumulated a terrifying wealth. If Lu Yi had not controlled the production of private salt, this number would have been even more terrifying.
The entire clerk was caring. During these three months, Lu Yi only used a little salt method to bring continuous wealth to the clerk without having to rob the family. With wealth, everyone's life was much better.
Because of Lu Yi's repeated methods, the people in Cuibeishan Mountain Village no longer have to worry about money. Lu Yi naturally became the leader of Cuibeishan Mountain Village, and everyone was extremely convinced by Lu Yi.
"It seems that it's time to leave! But this time I didn't expect there was an unexpected surprise!" On the day I became the leader of the Cuibeishan Mountain Village, Lu Yi found that his luck value had increased by 10 points.
Although the 10-point fortune value is not much, it also gave Lu Yi a basic understanding of how to obtain fortune value. It also gave Lu Yi a clear understanding of his future plans, and Cuibei Mountain Village became an extremely important backup for Lu Yi.
With the supply of a large amount of money, Lu Yi's layout began to be improved bit by bit. However, because the time is still short, many layouts are still ineffective. However, as time goes by, Cuibei Mountain Village will become Lu Yi's foundation in the future.
During these three months, Lu Yi also wanted to teach "Xuanhuang True Body" to Li Er and Yang Ruowei, but perhaps because the bloodline power was not activated, the two of them could not practice "Xuanhuang True Body", so Lu Yi could only teach them some superficial fighting methods first.
After arranging the matter of Cuibei Mountain Village, Lu Yi prepared to go to Zhongnan Mountain. After all, this world is a martial arts world, and strength is respected in the world. Lu Yi still doesn’t even know how to practice internal skills, so it is imperative to go to Zhongnan Mountain to become a disciple.
The heavy mountains overlook the Wei River, and the green peaks penetrate the distant sky. The red mountains come out of the ridge and the green mountains store the rocks and smoke. The pine trees are stacked like night, and the caves are full of doubts. I have no time to visit the Nine Immortals.
The towering Qinling Mountains are lingering in Zhongnan Mountains, stretching for hundreds of miles, with a world of charm. Zhongnan has been a holy place for immortals to practice Taoism since ancient times, and is regarded by Taoism as the crown of the cave and the best blessed place in the world. At this time, the Taoist real man Wang Chongyang preached here and was preparing to establish the Quanzhen Sect here.
It is not difficult to find Wang Chongyang. Wang Chongyang has a great reputation around Zhongnan Mountain. At this time, the Chongyang Real People were already building the Quanzhen Sect. Lu Yi found Wang Chongyang after a brief inquiry.
Wang Chongyang was wearing a Taoist robe, with cloud shoes and boots, and holding a whisk in his hands. Wang Chongyang's fairy style and Taoist genius were fully displayed. When people saw it, they couldn't help but exclaim: "He is truly an extraordinary person on earth, like a Taoist immortal in heaven!"
