Chapter 634 Fighting the strangeness of the cursed land
Jiang Xingchen must go to the curse land. Solving the planting problem is one aspect, and there are three other important aspects. One is to find a convenient location for building a port, and the other is to build a water passage. These are all large projects and he must be at a close mind. This is also the reason why he asked for construction in the middle when negotiating with the Dali Kingdom.
Only when the construction here is completed can he have a foundation to the ocean and the Wang family’s overseas relationships will be applied. Of course, it can also lead to overseas from Linhai City, but he is always uneasy to move on other people’s territory.
The big project here requires a lot of money, so he is eager to get out the soap and make a lot of money. Otherwise, except for selling monster meat, he will not be able to support the pressure of building the Starling and here at the same time.
The last important purpose was that he wanted to personally survey the large areas of dangerous mountains and rivers south of the Curse Land, limestone, alkaline ore, feldspar, porcelain clay, and other minerals that he urgently needed. Although he could not recognize these things, he had some experience at least, so Han Xiaowu and the others could not do it.
Before leaving, Mei'er asked Jiang Xingchen to bring pink to ensure safety. However, he did not agree. If the old man followed him, there were crabs and ribs. If the pink was taken away, what would happen if Mei'er had an accident?
Pink was extremely dissatisfied with this, but Jiang Xingchen refused, so it had no choice but to watch the two goods crabs and ribs leave happily.
There are ribs and crabs to transport, and Jiang Xingchen and the old man were extremely fast. Three days later, they met Zhao Danqing who stopped waiting.
After hearing that Jiang Xingchen was about to explore the Southern Wilderness, Zhao Danqing made a quick decision and immediately decided to take the Iron Sword Mercenary Group back and go to the Southern Wilderness with Jiang Xingchen. He even criticized Jiang Xingchen. If I had known that you would have gone to the Southern Wilderness, I would have stayed in the curse land and never returned. I had run so long for nothing.
Jiang Xingchen shook his head and smiled bitterly. His previous plan was not complete, and he didn't expect to go to the Southern Desert to explore, otherwise Zhao Danqing would not have returned.
The private soldiers set off and continued to rush back to Xingchen Leader. Zhao Danqing took the Iron Sword Mercenary Group to follow Jiang Xingchen to the Cursed Land again.
There were few people this time, and the Iron Sword Mercenary Group was all in the Qi Condensation Realm. There were not many supplies yet, so their speed was of course very fast. In mid-August, a group of people rushed to the curse land.
"This place is really not suitable for warriors to live in!" The old man sucked his teeth and shook his head. After entering the curse land, he stopped riding ribs and instead rode a horse.
"Yes!" Zhao Danqing and the others nodded. It was really strange here. Not only could you practice without vitality, but you had to be careful everywhere. You must never use your vitality, otherwise it would dissipate quickly and disappear from your distance.
"It's so strange that you can't even activate your vitality?" Jiang Xingchen frowned. He gave Han Xiaowu 150 million. Many of them were Yuanshi, just to facilitate their cultivation. But now, isn't Yuanshi not effective?
It seemed to be answering what Jiang Xingchen thought. The old man nodded and said, "Xiao Wu tried to practice with Yuanshi, but it did not work. As long as the Yuanshi left Yuanshi, it would dissipate immediately!"
"If this is true, then it would be interesting... The vitality dissipated so quickly. Where did it go? The cursed land has no vitality..." Jiang Xingchen fell into deep thought after listening to the old man's explanation.
He did not use the formation. It was so weird here that he had to be careful. Usually he gathered his vitality and used the formation without worrying. It was equivalent to the slight fluctuation of nothing, and the old man couldn't see it. But now it was not possible. This is a curse place. Who knew what would happen after he used the formation? It would be bad if the plug-in was discovered.
While he was thinking about it, Han Xiaowu brought people to greet him, and there were a large area of darkness, afraid that there were more than 2,000 people.
"Apart from a thousand overseas slaves, craftsmen from the Duan family, planting masters sent by Grand Duke Yue of Qi, and your private soldiers, the others were bought from Nanjiang before coming." Zhao Danqing explained.
"Mr.!" Han Xiaowu greeted from afar, letting everyone stop, and he rushed over with the members of the Shocking Group.
"Fifth Brother, you're so dark!" Jiang Xingchen laughed and stepped forward, hammering Han Xiaowu's shoulder.
"This place is too hot, not only exposed to the sun, but also humid. It's like steaming in the cage every day, which is far worse than our Star Collector!" Han Xiaowu opened his mouth and began to pour bitter water.
"If you stay uncomfortable, I will transfer you back to Xingchen and let Boss Du come over!" Jiang Xingchen said with a smile.
"No, don't..." Han Xiaowu waved his hand quickly. Although the environment here is not good, he is at least the manager of a base. If it is built here, his contribution will definitely not be able to be eliminated. How can he give up?
Furthermore, in Xingchen, in addition to patrolling every day, he can even manage public security and manage birds, and there is no interesting place here. Construction, management, training, inspection, and busy every day, and there is no doubt that there will be wars. Thinking about the power of the bombardment of the crossbow, he wants to bully Yancheng again.
Zhao Danqing smiled and said to Jiang Xingchen: "Brother, why do you have to look for Boss Du? I can take over the work here. If Xiao Wu wants to go back, let him go back. I am not afraid of hardship!"
"You... forget it!" Jiang Xingchen, the old man, and Han Xiaowu spoke almost at the same time, and gave Zhao Danqing a contemptuous look, ignored him and walked forward.
"Uh!" Zhao Danqing's smile froze, and felt a leaf falling from behind his head. He stared at Jiang Xingchen and the others' backs, shouting loudly: "In your eyes, am I so bad?"
"Yes!" Not only Jiang Xingchen, Han Xiaowu, the old man, but also members of Jingtian and the Iron Sword Mercenary Group half turned around, looked serious and nodded vigorously.
Zhao Danqing instantly petrified. Others said that it would be fine. He was the leader of the Iron Sword, and even they attacked him like this.
"Fuck~" Zhao Danqing swears, jumps over and grabs a member of the group's collar, and shakes it hard: "Xiaoyuan, what do you mean? Is it fun to hit me? You guys, is it bad for me?"
Zhao Danqing's forehead was leaping with blue veins, and spitting in his mouth flew around. Xiaoyuan was so scared that he twisted his face, shrank his neck, and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, the commander is not bad at all..."
Hearing this sentence, Zhao Danqing grinned and looked at the old man and Jiang Xingchen proudly. Did you hear it? Don’t think I don’t know what you are thinking, just to hit me... Zhao Danqing thought to himself, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Xiaoyuan continue, "You may have eaten!"
"Puff!" Zhao Danqing's mouthful of old blood was sucked out, and his feet staggered.
The old man, Jiang Xingchen, Han Xiaowu's muscles twitched a few times, burst into laughter, pointed at Zhao Danqing, and squatted on the ground with his stomach covering.
"This knife is enough to hit the point!" The group of people sat on the ground with a smile, stretching their thumbs to Xiaoyuan.
Xiaoyuan looked at everyone with a cute and stupid expression and said, "What's wrong with you? You laugh so much, have I said the wrong thing?"
"Ouch! No! My stomach hurts!" Han Xiaowu sat on the ground, holding his stomach and thrusting.
"This kid is so..." The old man said three words, but he could no longer make a sound, and he was almost breathless when he laughed.
Even the crab lay on the ground, covering one front paw with his mouth and the other slapped the ground with a bang.
Zhao Danqing looked at everyone's appearance and his face turned dark. He grabbed Xiaoyuan's neck and shook his swaying desperately: "Xiao Wang Badan, I'll let you be foolish, I'll let you be cute, follow me, I promise not to beat you to death..."
"Help, don't, boss, I'm wrong, I will never dare again..." Xiaoyuan struggled desperately, but was dragged farther and farther away by Zhao Danqing.
Not long after, screams came from a distance, scaring the members of the Iron Sword Mercenary Group to tremble and dared not laugh anymore, and jumped up quickly.
In the evening, when Xiaoyuan told the team members about the punishment he had suffered, all the Iron Sword Mercenary Group shivered: "I'll just take it, this is too cruel!"
At this time, Zhao Danqing laughed and said to the old man: "You are still powerful. This is really useful. No one can withstand the tickling..." As he said that, he stretched out his hands and scratched them evilly.
Today, the scenes of laughter and fighting among the people were all seen by the subordinates and slaves. Many people were stunned. In their impression, the lord should be serious and imposing, and the surroundings were also solemn. How could there be such a person!
But when Jiang Xingchen walked up to them and asked them about some life matters seriously, they felt the majesty that the lord should have. Each of them was careful not to breathe.
The two completely opposite scenes made the young master of the Mu family, especially the newly bought slaves from Nanjiang, fear Jiang Xingchen and not particularly nervous.
Afterwards, the old man sighed that Jiang Xingchen's methods of control were getting more and more clever.
In fact, Jiang Xingchen himself didn't think so much about it. Zhao Danqing was a friend and had been used to playing. Ask the slave, and also learn about the living conditions here and don't have any diseases. After all, there is no clinic here yet.
That night, Jiang Xingchen was alone in the room, and then he really gave up his mind, started to use the formation, and felt the weirdness of the curse land.
When the formation started to operate, Jiang Xingchen immediately felt as if there was an invisible force pulling the vitality in the formation veins in his body.
How to describe it? It is like there is a water pump with super suction that needs to pull out all the energy in the formation.
"How could this happen?" Jiang Xingchen frowned, stopped the formation, and his eyes gradually became empty.
The next morning, Jiang Xingchen brought the crab and asked two members of the Shocking Mercenary Group to follow and explore the edge of the Curse Land. There was the junction of whether there was a vital energy. Based on his intricate perception of vital energy, he would definitely find something. (To be continued)
