Genius Demon Empress

Considering the possible impact of this line of business, and the Viscount Moore who would come to attack at any time, Yue Jinghua kept Xiao Shan and the Giant Winged Mosquito King to prepare for defense, and asked Teng Wu to help take care of the village for a while.

She only brought Nan Muyu, Pin Jincan, and Snake Fagel with her on this trip.

Before leaving the town, Yue Jinghua also approved several plans proposed by the old butler Batesin.

One is: to encourage foreign immigrants, and for people who move their families to Fontaine County, they will be exempted from various exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes within three years. The situation in Fontaine County has become increasingly stable these days. With the promotion of a series of projects including farming and blue snow candles, the income of Fontaine County has increased, and immigrants have gradually entered. Some people who were dissatisfied with the fatuous governance of Viscount Moore in Bailu County all moved here with their families, and there were a large number of craftsmen among them.

Relying on these people, Hongyao established several additional blue snow candle processing factories, recruited a group of local villagers, and then sold them to Ruisong Federation through the channel provided by He Liansheng.

He Liansheng left Fontaine County shortly after the start of spring plowing. Before he left, he summoned a deacon of the family. Come pick it up and bring some Federation-specific novelties.

The second is to form a new Fontaine County Guard Army. Although there are prairie poisonous algae and giant winged mosquito kings, they are all just magic trees and monsters, and now only Yue Jinghua can control them. , may lead to unnecessary harm.

It’s just that rebuilding the county guard is not something that can be completed in a day or two. In order to relieve the pressure on the manpower in the county, the old butler Bates accepted the suggestion of the former county guard leader Nan Muyu, and planned to build a Mercenary Town - Wusheng Town spends a lot of money to recruit a group of resident mercenaries.

Wusheng Town is one of the largest mercenary towns in the Eastern Continent. Because it is close to the Xuanshou Ridge with the most abundant resources of Xuanshou, a large number of mercenaries enter Wusheng Town every year.

Nan Muyu has seen quite a few mercenaries like this. He believes that the current defense of Fontaine County only relies on a few people, which is obviously not enough. If the lord has ample money, he can definitely invite a mercenary squad to help defense.

Yue Jinghua agreed with his proposal and entrusted Bates to recruit.

After bidding farewell to Lie Rou and the others, Yue Jinghua went all the way into battle with light clothes, and with Nan Muyu who was familiar with the terrain, she left Fontaine County and entered Calanne Peak not long after.

Along the way, the ice and snow line gradually moved up, and the traces of spring became thicker day by day, and fluffy green grass had grown on the tall mountains.

It's just that on this road, Yue Jinghua only saw some trees, and there were fewer and fewer mysterious beasts even at the lowest level.

It took about three months, and around noon, the two arrived at the peak of Kalan Peak.

The height of Kalanfeng Mountain is about 1,000 meters above sea level in modern times. It can only be regarded as a medium height among the Xuanshou mountain ridges. The mountain peaks are covered with coral cypresses that have not yet sprouted. The cave where the corpse of the evil dragon was once sealed.

"It is said that a special space-time profound formation has been set up in this area. If the eye of the formation is not found, the cave cannot be found," Nan Muyu also made a mistake back then, and only entered the cave with the mysterious beast that served as a sacrifice. .

"In previous years, when the people who delivered the sacrifices arrived here, they would put down the sacrifices and then leave." Along the way, Nan Muyu kept urging Yue Jinghua. , Three days have passed, even though he knew that the "Beast God" would not swallow all the sacrifices immediately, every minute that passed, the lives of his family members were more in danger.

"Where is the misty smoke you mentioned?" According to Nan Muyu, the beast god would receive sacrifices at the spring and autumn equinoxes every year, but since last year in Fontaine County, due to the disaster in the county, they have not come to worship again. Viscount Moore also reduced the number of sacrifices in order to attract the tide of beasts.

The reduction or even extinction of the mysterious beasts in this area is the result of the "beast god" going down the mountain to hunt himself because of his hunger.

"We need to wait until midnight, the beast gods only come and go at night," Nan Muyu took out a few detoxification pills and handed them to Yue Jinghua. In the end, he originally wanted to go with a Tianxuan master like Teng Wu, but Yue Jinghua refused immediately.

"Relieve miasma, repel insects? This kind of elixir is good," Yue Jinghua only ate one, and then identified the herbal ingredients in the elixir.

Nan Muyu was slightly taken aback, the lord is also proficient in alchemy?

He became increasingly ignorant of this young lord. Before he left, the lord casually threw him a pill, which was said to allow him to directly break through from the Jade Profound Realm to the Earth Profound Realm.

"It's still early, tell me about the adventurer, and the refining method of detoxification pill, animal skin tie-dye, and animal blood ink?" Yue Jinghua asked after seeing Nanmuyu's adventurer's equipment. She was very interested. After learning about the existence of Wusheng Town, Yue Jinghua had a new idea.

Only relying on blue snow candles and a limited number of blue snow stoves is obviously not enough to become the economic pillar of Fontaine County. She wants to take advantage of the natural advantages of being adjacent to the Wusheng mercenary town to earn money from the mercenaries.

The mercenaries who spend the most money on the road are those mercenaries who deal with death and risks every day, and Nan Muyu's family-inherited adventure items are no small temptation to mercenaries, even if it is If the price is higher, they are also willing.

After He Yue Jinghua explained the manufacturing method of the adventurer's equipment in detail, the night darkened the entire Kalan Peak unknowingly.

In order to prevent the "beast god" from discovering the smell of the two, Nan Muyu took out a special smell of disappearing powder, sprinkled it on the side of the two, and then quietly waited for the "beast god" to appear.

After waiting for more than an hour, there was still no trace, and the legendary fog did not appear. Yue Jinghua was puzzled and asked, "What's going on?"

"Oops, we forgot to bring the sacrifice, and we didn't smell the sacrifice. The 'beast god' is cunning, I'm afraid it won't come out," Nan Muyu patted his forehead, it was really a hundred secrets, how could he put the most I forgot the key thing, that "beast god" is very picky, he won't eat anything other than live animals, and there isn't a single mysterious beast in the vicinity, so where to find suitable sacrifices.

"Sacrifice? As long as it's alive, it's right?" Yue Jinghua thought for a while, and a white bug appeared in her hand like a magic trick. The pin golden silkworm, who was so sleepy, threw it out.
