First Lord of Earth

"You haven't asked for your names yet?"

A quarter of an hour later.

In the living room of "Tianbao Tower".

Next to Xia Tian sat Jia Xu, who was holding a golden bamboo slip, while the man and woman opposite him had obviously some restraint on their faces.

"I'm Hu Cheng, this is my little sister, Sanniang!"

The young man introduced himself.

According to the two men, they came from a place called "Hujiazhuang" about two hundred miles away.

Because of the lack of food in Zhuangzi, I fortunately rushed to the territory to buy some food, but I didn't expect that Xiafang City did not accept gold, silver and jewelry at all... I pledged my supplies, but found that I couldn't exchange them for a few souls. Stone, so that nothing can be done!

Well, you don’t know that gold and silver have lost their original value in the land of eternity?

So, these two people are not from human territory!

"Hujiazhuang? Sanniang...could it be..."

Xia Tian thought of something, and his "Eye of Insight" opened in his heart.

[Hu Sanniang (blue)]

【Level】Second level of metamorphosis

[Characteristics] Beauty Ecstasy (in battle, it is easy to cause the enemy to become distracted), Gossip Girl General (when leading troops to fight, her own combat effectiveness is improved)

[Skills] Riding (expert), swordsmanship (expert)

[Explanation] A talent with great potential has the possibility of further advancement!

[Remarks] Jade snow skin has the appearance of hibiscus and has a natural quality. The face is covered with dust, the robe is wet with sweat, and the chest and armpits are full of murderous rage; the warrior is in ecstasy, the enemy is frightened, and the female general is in a strange state!

"Sure enough, it's her, Yi Zhang Qing Hu Sanniang!"

In the world of "Water Margin", most of the 108 generals are men, with only three women.

In addition to the famous "Mother Yaksha" Sun Erniang, the "Yizhangqing" Hu Sanniang is also famous.

And Xia Tian remembers it deeply.

Because its fate is extremely miserable!

Speaking of which, it also has some relationship with the "Liu Zhizhai" who was killed by a werewolf in Qingfeng Village next to the territory.

When Song Jiang went to Qingfeng Village to look for Hua Rong, he accidentally discovered that the Dwarf Tiger "Wang Ying" and his group had kidnapped the wife of Liu Zhizhai and prepared to use her as the wife of the village.

As the wife of Hua Rong's colleague, Song Jiang relied on the reputation of "Timely Rain" to persuade Wang Ying to let her go, promising that he would be a matchmaker for him in the future and find a beautiful wife!

Later, in order to gain the leadership of Liangshan, Song Jiang sent people to attack Zhujiazhuang.

Wang Ying saw Hu Sanniang, who came with troops to help in the battle, and her lust was triggered. She stepped forward to fight and teased him with dirty words, but was defeated and captured alive by Hu Sanniang.

But later Lin Chong joined the battle, and Hu Sanniang was defeated by this leopard-headed man and was captured!

Seeing that his sister was captured, Hu Cheng, as the elder brother, could only bow his head to Song Jiang and promised not to help Zhujiazhuang fight anymore. He was even willing to hand over the Zhujiazhuang people in Hujiazhuang to Liangshan in exchange for Hu Sanniang.

Song Jiang agreed.

As a result, the extremely murderous black whirlwind Li Kui rushed to Hujiazhuang and killed everyone in Hujiazhuang, old and young.

After Song Jiang found out, he just scolded him and said that he had done meritorious service by killing the people in Zhujiazhuang. His merits and demerits were equal to each other and he would not be punished...

Then out of "guilt" for the survivor Hu Sanniang, Song Jiang asked his father to adopt Hu Sanniang as his adopted daughter, and then as his elder brother, he made the decision to marry her to Wang Ying to fulfill his promise!

You must know that the "dwarf tiger" Wang Ying is not only rough-tempered, majestic in appearance, greedy for money and lustful, but is only a little taller than Wu Dalang.

There is no doubt that in terms of the original tragedy of her fate, this Hu Sanniang surpassed Qingwen, who was driven out of Jia's house when she was seriously ill and left to die in a desolate night.

However, now that they have entered this eternal land, although it is full of dangers everywhere and they will inevitably encounter various alien races and ferocious beasts, at least they have changed their miserable fate in the original world!

In particular, Xia Tian learned from the Hu family brother and sister that Hujiazhuang was not a human territory, but the entire village had more than 1,500 people, which was twice as much as the original population of Qingfeng Village.

"Fifteen hundred people...if they can be allowed to migrate into the territory, then they are just a short distance away from being upgraded."

Xia Tian thought.

"Moreover, it can also set an example for some surrounding non-territorial human forces."

In the past few days, almost all the people recruited in the territory are "refugees". Villages like this have already had relatively stable forces, and they have not chosen to join them yet.

Mainly, in the environment of Eternal Land, large-scale and long-distance population movement involves many problems.

Second, the people in charge of these villages hold power themselves, and may not be willing to join the human race territory and subordinate themselves to others.

However, food is the most important thing for people.

There is currently a shortage of food in Hu's family village, and they are too short of money to buy it.

Perhaps, this is the best time to recruit people. If it can have the effect of "buying horse bones with a thousand dollars", it will undoubtedly be more beneficial to the future development of the territory!

"As humans, we should naturally support each other in this eternal land. Let's do this. I can support you with ten thousand kilograms of pearl rice and five thousand kilograms of ferocious beast meat to help you tide over the difficulties!"

What Xia Tian said.

"Fifteen thousand catties of grain?"

After the two heard it.

Suddenly, there was some excitement.

Fifteen thousand kilograms of grain, some saved will be enough to last a month!

"grown ups……"

But just when the two brothers and sisters looked surprised, Jia Xu next to them suddenly spoke.

"A large number of refugees have come to the territory in the past few days. According to the rules you have set for ordinary-level refugees, at least one kilogram of pearl rice and one kilogram of ferocious beast meat per day, and for the mortal-level refugees, at least ten kilograms of pearl rice and ten kilograms of ferocious beast meat per day. I’m afraid the territory’s current reserves of resources are not very large… Do you want to consider the fifteen thousand kilograms?”

"In addition, houses for ten people per family were built for them, and each person was given two sets of changes of clothes to treat their injuries..."

Jia Xu's words made the Hu family brothers and sisters a little dumbfounded.

How many kilograms of grain are distributed every day, as well as houses, clothes...clothes, food, and shelter are all provided. Is this actually the treatment of "refugees" who come to the territory?

"It doesn't matter, the newly arrived refugees can be arranged to reclaim the land. For every acre of land reclaimed, ten merit points can be awarded. If the harvest of food is good, additional rewards will be given... I believe everyone will be happy to grow food, so that there will be no Notched!”

Xia Tian said extremely "generously".

"Manpower to clear and cultivate the fields?"

The Hu brothers and sisters looked at each other the same way.

Hujiazhuang is a farm. There are not many other craftsmen, but there are quite a few people who know how to farm!

"Lord Xia not only took in these refugees, but also gave them such good treatment?"

Hu Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"My lord is naturally kind-hearted. As long as they are human beings, they will be treated equally after entering the territory."

"After becoming a territory resident, each person can get one to ten kilograms of pearl rice as food every day according to his or her own cultivation level. They can also obtain 'merit points' through work, which can be exchanged for the materials they need, including but not limited to cultivation techniques and weapons. Equipment, elixirs, precious medicines, ferocious beast meat! You can even apply for the qualifications to use the rare items of the Immortal Family such as 'marrow washing in the blood pool, baptism of the stars, cultivation in the sword pavilion'..."

Jia Xu said from the side.

"so good……"

The Hu brothers and sisters' breathing became a little rapid.

As people who had never been in contact with the human race territory, the two of them did not know the various magical features of the territory until they entered Xia Tian's territory.

The Star Palace surrounded by stars, the Langhuan Jade Mansion with flowing clouds and mist, and the market with suspended sky lanterns... are so dizzying that the two of them are like "Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden."

Even facing the most ordinary territory resident, I feel a little "ashamed of myself."

Because the other person's clothes and appearance are very comfortable and clean, the fabrics of the clothes are made of good quality, and the house he lives in is no worse than the richest person in his village!

As for myself and others, not only were their clothes in tatters due to traveling and fighting in the wilderness, but the weapons in their hands could not even be replaced with a few spirit stones, and they were inevitably deeply shocked!

And all these resources can be obtained and used only after joining the territory?

"What if you join this territory? You can enjoy these!"

The brother and sister couldn't help but think of this idea.

Especially Hu Sanniang, in a daze, she even whispered it in her mouth.

"In this eternal land, our human race does not have the physical advantage. If we want to fight against the alien race, we naturally need to gather the collective strength of everyone. Our territory defeated the mountain ghost, which is the time for development, especially for two people like this Talents with outstanding abilities will naturally be reused if they join the territory!"

Xia Tian and Jia Xu looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

"I'm afraid we brothers and sisters need to go back to the village to discuss this matter with my father..."

In contrast, Hu Cheng, as the elder brother, is more calm after all. Although he is moved, he still takes a breath to calm down.

"To be honest with you Lord... there is actually a special 'treasure' in our territory. Its effect is to condense the 'spiritual veins'. I don't know how much spiritual energy we can mortgage if we trade this item with your territory." stone?"

Then he and Hu Sanniang discussed quietly for a while. After hesitating for a few seconds, Hu Cheng spoke again.

"Well, spiritual veins?"

Xia Tian's heart moved.

Unlike spiritual stone mines, which have limited reserves and become smaller the more they are mined, spiritual veins can exist for a long time and continue to provide spiritual power!

In a sense, having spiritual veins can give a territory a real foundation.

The most important thing is that it can solve the hidden danger of using spiritual stones as currency, which may lead to a lack of resources in the territory in the future!

"This spiritual vein is derived from a stone turtle. It is only a small spiritual vein, but it is enough for some of us in Zhuangzi to practice. We rely on the power of the spiritual vein to complete the body tempering..."

What Hu Sanniang said next made Xia Tian's face show an expression of interest.

"There is actually a treasure that can create spiritual veins!"

Generally speaking, spiritual veins are condensed due to geography and mountain and river patterns during the "fusion of heaven and earth" process.

However, top Feng Shui masters can also use Feng Shui formations to change the location of heaven and earth, mountains and rivers, and the environment, thereby absorbing wind and water to create a place for gathering spirits, and even spiritual veins.

Huang Yaoshi had promised to help the territory set up a top-notch Feng Shui array before.

But so far, this top-notch Feng Shui array has not been successfully deployed!

Just because, although Huang Yaoshi is relatively versatile and has "master level" attainments in Feng Shui formation techniques, the top Feng Shui formations are at the "Grandmaster" level.

In addition, Xia Tian's territory is developing a bit too fast. The territory changes almost every day and continues to expand towards the outside. It is really difficult to build a suitable "Feng Shui pattern"!

Now, there is a treasure that can directly create "spiritual veins"?

You must know that things that can derive spiritual veins are either top-notch rare treasures of heaven and earth, or high-level rare objects. No matter which one is extremely important for the development of the territory!

"Treasures that can derive spiritual veins are of great value to the territory. If used for trading, it is estimated that about a thousand spiritual stones can be mortgaged! You can each choose a top golden skill in the 'Tianbao Pavilion' Method! Plus replace two weapons and equipment at the level of transformation!"

And after hearing Xia Tian's words.

The brother and sister looked at each other with surprised expressions.

Although there are spiritual veins in their territory, there are only ordinary-level cultivation techniques, and there are no ordinary-level cultivation techniques at all.

Everyone relied on their own strength to reach the limit of the human body, and relied on the abundant spiritual power provided by the spiritual veins to automatically temper their bodies, so that now the two of them have only reached the first or second level of mortal transformation!

It wasn't until I came to this human territory that I realized that there was a transformation-level technique.

Moreover, it is divided into five grades, and gold belongs to the highest grade.

You know, they have also understood the regulations of "Tianbao Pavilion". Each of the techniques marked as silver and gold are extremely powerful.

Moreover, "exotic treasures and strange objects" need to be traded.

Even if the "stone turtle" in their Zhuangzi belongs to the category of rare treasures and rare objects, it is only one piece, and if both of them can obtain a golden technique, they must be making a lot of money!

"It's just that this 'spiritual vein' is related to the cultivation of your village. Once the transaction is completed, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to cultivate in the future!"

Xia Tian's words made the two of them calm down a little more.

"Sir, this is not a problem in Xu's opinion."

"Since the spiritual vein treasures come from Hujiazhuang, even if they are moved to our territory, we can still allow people from Hujiazhuang to come and live in the territory and practice with the help of spiritual veins..."

Jia Xu said with a smile on his face.

These words made the two brothers and sisters a little touched, but if they think about it carefully, with the treatment of Xia Tian Territory, if the people from their own Zhuangzi really came over, would they still be willing to go back?

However, even the two of them have the idea of ​​joining Xia Tian Territory in their hearts, so they are not too repelled.

"If the two of you can join my territory after discussing with your family, you can temporarily take the position of 'deputy commander' and be responsible for managing the people from Hujiazhuang. If you show consistent abilities, you can become a full-time official or even be promoted to commander.' Qualifications for entering the Golden Platform', 'Baptism of the Stars', 'Blessing of Luck', etc..."

And after some discussion.

Xia Tian made a definite promise to the two of them.

"Commander?"

Hearing this, the Hu siblings' breathing became rapid again.

They have seen with their own eyes just how powerful and novel this human territory is.

Although in the original Hujiazhuang, as the children of the owner of the village, the two of them were considered to be in power!

Although as the saying goes, it is better to be the head of a chicken than the queen of an ox.

But the problem is, how can the son of the village chief of a small mountain village compare to the leader of a human territory?

But they don't know that Xia Tian is the real winner. After all, he is a famous character in Water Margin. The Hu brothers and sisters are all rated as blue talents under the eyes of "Insight".

In particular, Hu Sanniang, as one of "One Hundred and Eight Generals of Liangshan", although her current level and strength are not high, she has potential that is not low. In the future, it will not be too difficult to be promoted to Silver Heroes and obtain talents. She has the ability to act as a general. Qualifications to lead!

What's more, the prerequisite for becoming a "commander" is that the two of them can bring enough people from Hujiazhuang!

"Then we brothers and sisters will go back tomorrow morning and discuss with our families..."

After hearing Xia Tian's words, the Hu family brothers and sisters couldn't wait to get up.

"There are 10,000 kilograms of pearl rice in this gourd. You can take it out by inputting spiritual power. You two will take it back first for emergency..."

Xia Tian's hand flashed with light, and a silver gourd appeared and was handed to the two of them.

It is a space-like spiritual weapon refined from the Colorful Universe Gourd.

"This is... thank you Lord Xia!"

The Hu brothers and sisters were even more shocked when they saw Xia Tian's "Void Transformation" scene, and they took the gourd with respectful expressions.

Ten thousand kilograms of pearl rice is priced according to Tianbao Pavilion.

This is equivalent to a full two hundred spirit stones, and Xia Tian directly handed it over to them.

The most important thing is that according to Xia Tian, ​​this small gourd actually contains a full 10,000 kilograms of pearl rice.

As you can imagine, it is definitely a "fairy treasure"!

Our hearts are separated by a distance of three hundred miles. What if the two of us just go away and never come back?

"Inform General Zilong to escort him with the Yunjiao Guards and five thousand kilograms of ferocious beast meat tomorrow morning... In addition, please trouble Mr. Jia Xu to follow and meet the 'Master of Huzhuang'!"

However, the two of them obviously thought simply.

Xia Tian then nodded to Jia Xu and said.

Since the journey is difficult and dangerous, and he carries a heavy treasure, in order to prevent the donated food from being plundered by aliens, it is appropriate to send troops to escort it, right?

Today's Yunjiao Guards are no longer the original twelve. Thanks to the large number of alien corpses obtained in previous battles, except for some of them that were integrated into the "Marrow Washing Blood Pool", the rest were fed to the newly hatched black and white dragon pheasants. .

Half a month later, these black and white pheasants have all grown up, and their bodies have reached the ninth level of mortal level. Some of them have even completed a transformation. With Zhao Yun, a top golden hero, it goes without saying that they are safe.

As for the purpose of letting Jia Xu accompany him, there is no need to mention it.

I believe that with the ability of this "Poison Master", he can definitely bring back satisfactory results!

"Commander Zilong, is this General Zhao Yun? Thank you, sir..."

As a Chinese, of course he is no stranger to Zhao Yun, and both brother and sister had surprises on their faces.

You must know that the "Hujiazhuang" where they are located is almost two hundred miles away from Xia Tian's territory, so there may not be much danger to those who have completed their transformation.

But for those ordinary people in Zhuangzi who have not practiced cultivation, walking such a long distance will inevitably encounter various difficulties and dangers along the way.

After all, after the human race defeated the mountain ghost, the only ones that were shocked were the intelligent alien races.

The various ferocious beasts and poisonous insects in the wilderness don't care whether your human race is strong or not, they only feed on the weak.

The two of them didn't even realize that they were thinking subconsciously about how to bring the people from Hujiazhuang to Xia Tian's territory!
