I Have a Mythical Tree

The mysterious boy stared at Ji Xia with no emotion other than indifference in his eyes.

With a calm face, Ji Xia sat on the throne and looked at the young man in the light curtain.

The two looked at each other.

After a long time, the mysterious boy suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Human?"

Ji Xia thought about it, but did not hide it, but nodded slightly.

Following Ji Xia's nod.

The light curtain suddenly shattered away.

The mysterious boy among them also shattered along with the light curtain.

There was no sign of the mysterious boy in the hall.

Ji Xia frowned slightly.

There was a bit of doubt on his face.

He didn't know what the question that the mysterious boy asked actually meant.

"Ask me if I am a human race? What is the purpose?"

Ji Xia was puzzled.

But the light curtain dissipated and the mysterious boy disappeared, Ji Xia could only suppress the doubts in his heart.

"In short, as long as these demon spirits in the Ghost Inner Domain don't kill them, it will be excellent news for Tai Cang."

He continued drinking tea and practicing.

It seemed that the matter of the mysterious boy never occupied his thoughts.

Except for the dynasty that has been slaughtered by the dead country.

Many other countries finally ushered in the long-lost peace.

The footsteps of the shadow army of the dead country have always stayed in those countries that have been suppressed by them.

He doesn't seem to have any interest in other hundred domain races and creatures.

There was no sound coming out from the rising cities of the dead country, nor was there any shadow appearing.

For most countries, this is tantamount to a huge torture.

Because the army of the dead country is like a giant axe, hanging high above their necks.

Make them restless.

And the changes in the countries that have been captured are obvious to all.

Mountains and rivers are broken.

No living beings exist.

The earth overturned.

A doomsday scene.

But for Tai Cang, this period of time has become a rare development time.

Ever since the Eight Lords of the Demon Lotus went to the Hundred Regions, they suppressed the royal courts of many countries that dared to slaughter the human race, and strangled all the creatures who dared to kill the human race to vent their depression in their hearts.

Many dynasties in the Hundred Regions began to be obedient.

After all, the army of the dead country does not know when it will attack.

But if Tai Cang is offended, the Tai Cang Altar will come to their capital in a short time.

Take the catastrophe to the army of the dead country one step and bring them to them.

The deterrent power of the Heavenly Kingdom is also vividly reflected at this moment.

Until May of the first year of Tai Cang Yuan Ding.

New Cangcheng was finally completely completed.

This is Tai Cang's second huge city that can accommodate more than 20 million souls after Taidu.

Located in the Xianshui Plain, it is also a piece of fertile land.

The original Cangcheng people have all migrated to New Cangcheng.

Of course, there are also a small number of people who are unwilling to leave the place where they have lived for generations, and the Cangcheng City Mansion does not force them to relocate.

After all, the original site of Cangcheng will be preserved for the time being.

Maybe in the near future, this place will become the acropolis of Taidu.

After all, if Taicang continues to prosper, there will never be a day when Taiduwei will continue to expand.

At that time, the distance between Taidu and Cangcheng will be too close, and a small city like Cangcheng can only become an acropolis.

Most of the citizens of Cangcheng are also willing to heed the call of the royal court in the early days and are willing to relocate to New Cangcheng.

After all, Cangcheng has a more favorable natural environment, as well as a more magnificent and gorgeous urban architecture.

In short, because there are two new cities, Taidu and Cangcheng.

All the more than 10 million people brought by Que Le and Milong Lord were resettled.

In a blink of an eye, Taicang has a population of nearly 30 million.

Although the population boom has brought many problems.

However, because Tai Cang Royal Court planned day and night and optimized governance methods day and night, it did not cause much commotion.

In the secret realm of Ye Ming, two batches of low-level officials with a total of 100,000 people were also cultivated.

Each batch of them has studied politics for a year and a half in the secret realm of Yeming.

The teachers who teach them all come from the best officials from all walks of life.

One and a half years have passed in the Yeming Secret Realm, but only two months have passed in the Boundless Wildlands.

In such a short period of time, such a number of officials have been cultivated, and the role of the Yeming Secret Realm can be seen from this.

"Of course, although the political theory of these officials who were taught in the secret realm is not bad, the detailed governance methods still need to be honed at the real grassroots level."

Ji Xia and Lu Yu are looking at the third batch of teenagers who are being taught in the secret realm of Yeming.

Lu Yu said: "What is learned on paper is shallow. This is the king's famous saying, but no matter what, being able to be taught systematically for eighteen months, compared to those who don't know anything, the foundation is much stronger."

Ji Xia is dressed in fine clothes, and those young people who are studying politics hard are the pillars of the future in his eyes.

He told the ministers around him: "These young officials have come out of the secret realm of Yeming. If they can handle their own government affairs in an orderly manner, they should open the door for promotion and let them take up more important positions. They cannot Always stay at the grassroots level of the city government."

Poxian and Ronglou should be respectful.

"Since the construction of New Cangcheng has been completed, we should give this new city a famous name, so that all creatures from other countries can think of the wealth and magnificence of this city when they hear this name."

On a whim, Ji Xia looked at Po Xian.

Po Xian froze for a moment, and immediately heard Ji Xia's high hopes for Cangcheng from Ji Xia's words.

So he opened his arms wide, folded his palms again, and bowed deeply to Ji Xia.

"Xin Cangcheng will definitely not disappoint the king."

Poxian said: "Cangcheng has ruled out powerful caravans to go to the three mountains, and take a walk on the ancient road leading to the world, so as to broaden the business channels for Tai Cang, and let Tai Cang see the world outside the mountains."

Ji Xia glanced at Poxian approvingly and said, "You and I have thought of the same thing, but no matter what, the safety of the caravan must be ensured, and now Fuliang Shiguo is still hidden around Baiyu, so we have to be careful."

"Poxian understands that, just like the analysis of the king and the royal court, before Fuliang Shiguo completely wiped out the creatures of more than ten dynasties, it should not attack other countries and realms."

The voice of the string is warm and soft.

Ji Xia waved his sleeves and said: "In that case, let's do it according to your ideas, but the ancient road to the world is very dangerous. According to Cangcheng's current strength, it is too reluctant to go and investigate. You are allowed to investigate the periphery of the ancient road."

Po Xian has always believed in Ji Xia's words.

He immediately saluted.

"Pixian has devoted herself to Cangcheng for a long time. As early as when Zhou Qingguo was raging, she had already dedicated herself to Cangcheng. In order to commend Poxian's achievements, I allowed Poxian to name Cangcheng."

Ji Xia spoke slowly, and envious expressions suddenly appeared on the faces of many ministers around.

They all looked at Poxian.

Po Xian was also flattered.

But he was not afraid of being polite.

This is the power bestowed upon him by the king in the beginning, and the reward bestowed on him by the king in the beginning.

King Taichu said that he could name this huge city with more than 20 million living beings.

Then he has the qualifications.

the reason is simple.

Because this is the will from the beginning.

"Cangcheng is good at business, and it was born in Shang. I wonder if it can be called 'Shang Cang'?"

Poxian thought for a moment, and said, "I also use this name to commemorate Lord Shang."

Many ministers looked at each other, then nodded slightly.

There is nostalgia in the eyes.

After all, most of the ministers in the center of Taicang are natives of Taicang.

That is to say, it came from Taicang with a population of 600,000 when Ji Xia succeeded to the throne the earliest.

They all had deep respect for Ji Xia's father and the Lord Shang who died because of Tai Cang.

Ji Xia turned her head.

His eyes seemed to cover many distances.

It landed on the huge statue of guarding the country with swords in front of the palace.

Staring for a long time, then turned around, and said slowly: "Shang Cang? Yes!"

——

On the bulletin board in front of Taidu Mansion, a notice was suddenly posted.

At the same time, notices were posted in all the streets and alleys of Taidu, and in front of huge landmarks.

Today's Taidu has a population of 22 million.

This is the main achievement of Taidu in the past five months.

It took five months for many soldiers and officials in Taidu to place all the population that Que Le and Lord Milong brought in vials from the empty blue spirit world into Taicang.

According to the statistics of Taicheng Mansion, the current Taicang is enough to accommodate 28 million people without any overcrowding.

Now the population has reached 22 million, and the remaining 6 million population capacity is also intentionally reserved by the royal court.

For future contingencies.

And from the next time people are transported, they will be transported to Cangcheng.

Therefore, in Taidu now, due to the impact of many new populations, the literacy rate has also become extremely low.

Among the human beings who moved into Taicang recently, very few of them could read or write.

Therefore, Wang Ting is carrying out large-scale education on the one hand, trying his best to improve the literacy rate and eradicate illiteracy.

But a mere few months is obviously not enough.

So before these announcements, there are special officials who read them.

"The Royal Court has recently set up a department of mirror images, which is dedicated to producing mirror images, passing on my grandeur, and exalting my civilization. Now we need to recruit a hundred people with good looks and beautiful figures, fifty people each for men and women... "

As the officials recited the contents of the notice aloud.

The people of Taicang surrounded in front of the notice all looked at each other in blank dismay, not understanding what the "mirror image" in the official's mouth was.

But soon someone joined the registration.

The reason is simple.

The reason is that the Mirror and Shadow Division is set up by the royal court.

It is the division and courtyard of the Eight Classics.

It's a job to be able to enter it, and there are generous rewards to be received. Presumably no one can refuse such a beautiful job.

And the conditions are not strict.

They just need to look good.

The Taicang people are actively signing up.

And Ji Xia was drinking tea in front of the table, looking at a volume of jade slips in his hand.

On the front of the jade slip, four characters can be vaguely seen.

"The Chronicle of Destiny".

And when Ji Xia looked at the words on the jade slip seriously.

Rao Yin, who was sitting at the bottom, was fidgeting.

She sipped the tea in the jade cup, her delicate face looked a little pale.

The flawless cheeks were even trembling slightly.

She didn't dare to look at Ji Xia's reaction.

I am afraid that Ji Xia will not be satisfied with her works.

After a long time, Ji Xia at the top finally rolled up the opened jade slip.

Chao Rao smiled and said: "The musician has a wonderful idea, no wonder this "Struggle for Fate" can be selected by many officials in the royal court among many story books."

A few months ago, when Ji Xia was having a banquet in the royal court, he told all the ministers, monks, scribes, and generals who were attending the banquet.

He wants to try it out.

It is to use rune images to shoot some specific stories and scenes.

In these stories and scenes, the civilization of Taicang is integrated, and even some things that the royal court wanted to guide in the beginning.

In order to complete the problem of guiding the ethos of the ever-increasing people.

As a result, hundreds of people from the Taicang Center became the creators of the script.

After several months, Wang Ting harvested thousands of scripts.

In the end, Rao Yin's "Struggle for Life" was selected, and I planned to use it to record the first "Mirror Image".

The content of the Life Struggle is very simple.

It is the story of a human teenager who has been abused and devastated, following a mysterious strong man, going through untold hardships to go to the dream country of the human race-Tai Cang Kingdom.

During the period, there were naturally countless ferocious races blocking the way, trying to devour them alive.

In the end, with the help of the mysterious strong man, they finally came to the kingdom of Taicang, became citizens of the kingdom, and finally lived happily in the story of Taicang.

The identity of the mysterious strong man was finally revealed.

It turned out that the Taicang Royal Court sent them to many countries for the purpose of receiving the suffering people of the human race.

The story is in the eyes of Ji Xia, a traveler who has experienced the information explosion.

Very very corny.

But combined with the current situation of the human race, combined with the basis of the existence of the vast wilderness image civilization that basically did not exist.

Such an old-fashioned story may be able to resonate with the new people of Tai Cang on the greatest level.

Next to the Yugan Palace, besides Rao Yin, there is another figure.

It was a woman who seemed to be twenty-four or five years old.

On her forehead, there is a purple rune, exuding an extraordinary aura.

It is not difficult to guess that she is a successful talisman master.

Her clothes were very bold, and she exuded an amazing femininity all over her body.

This is Rou Wuyan, acting director of Mirror Shadow Division.

It was originally a talisman master in Tianfu Pavilion who refined various image runes and illusion runes.

Ji Xia wanted to form the Mirror and Shadow Department, and this talisman master was also recommended by Zhong Quan, the owner of the Tianfu Pavilion.

The reason lies in "studying image runes intensively, thinking wildly and unconstrainedly, and acting eclecticly."

So Rou Wuyan became the acting head of the Mirror Shadow Division.

If the effect of this "Struggle for Life" can enter Ji Xia's eyes.

She can take full control of the mirror department.

"Rou Wuyan, you can talk about your filming ideas now."

Ji Xia turned his gaze from Rao Yin to Rou Wuyan.

Rou Wuyan stood up, boldly dressed to match her mature and charming face and figure, which dazzled Rao Yin on the opposite side.

Rou Wuyan bowed to Ji Xia and said in a natural tone:

"In the idea of ​​Wuyan, the emotions of the characters should be real and natural, and people can't tell it's fake at a glance, but the supernatural scenes should be as grand as possible to attract the audience's attention. At the same time, it needs to highlight the prosperity of the sky infinitely , the royal court loves the people like a son,..."

Rou Wuyan's tone was straightforward, without any attempt to hide it.

Ji Xia felt slightly ashamed.

"Maybe this is the fabled cultural export-type film that washes the land and 50 cents?"

Ji Xia said: "I remember a certain Star-Spangled Country in the previous life who was best at making this kind of movie, which was used to cleanse the ground and the wisdom of the people.

But now, as their predecessors, it's not too much for me to learn from them, right? "

While Ji Xia was thinking secretly, both Rou Wuyan and Rao Yin's eyes fell on Ji Xia.

I don't know what the two are thinking.

There is no way.

Since Ji Xia completed the Yuque Heavenly Court Sutra, her temperament has been influenced by the laws of the Heavenly Palace, and her temperament has become more and more profound and her charm is astonishing.

In addition to his peerless appearance, if someone said that he was born from heaven, there would not be many people who would refute him.

The mirror image recording is not just a move to calm the hearts of the new people of Taicang. Ji Xia has other plans, so I won't mention them for now.

The climate in May can already be called hot.

But Taicang soldiers are all in the secret realm of Yeming.

The climate of Yeming Secret Realm changes according to Ji Xia's will, so the four seasons here are like spring, and the climate is pleasant, making it very livable.

Of course, for today's Taicang soldiers, mere heat or cold is not a big obstacle.

In five months, forty months have passed in the Yeming Secret Realm.

More than three years.

Such a time-consuming practice, coupled with the magical effect of the Runshi Tianyun covering the sky above Taidu.

The Xuanfeng Qiongqi army has fully broken through into the realm of controlling spirits.

Of the thousand spirit-controlling soldiers, a small number of them have even achieved god appearances.

The threshold for controlling the three phases of Lingyuan, Shen, and Tian is extremely high.

If there is no superposition of multiple effects such as Runshi Tianyun, various pills, Yeming Secret Realm, and many gods.

Even if each of these soldiers of the Xuanfeng Qiongqi Army has the talent to break into the spirit of ninety-nine levels of supernatural powers and achieve ninety-nine feet of spiritual fetus.

It is very difficult to break through the realm again in such a short period of time and become a god-like monk.

And the eight thousand Taicang Silver Guards have all become strong men with supernatural powers above six or seven levels.

The 60,000 Raging Flame Army and the 10,000 Jingxiao Army, except for the soldiers who have recently joined the Raging Flame Army, all of them have successfully broken into the realm of supernatural powers.

This kind of power is already extremely terrifying.

Cooperating with Yan Ming Sidu Grand Formation, Taicang Fury Flame Army Formation and other prestigious military formations that suppressed the Hundred Regions, today's Taicang soldiers can even directly challenge the Baimu Jiaqiling in its heyday!

In just over half a year, the strength can have such an explosive growth. In addition to many gods as the main support, various conditions such as Tai Cang Dao Altar, Huangguang Tiandian, rich spiritual energy, and many elixirs are indispensable.

And this time Tai Cang's harvest can be called huge.

For example, during the court meeting, the jade folding in front of Ji Xia can prove it.

"Yuruji applied for 721 spirit golds of various colors, 41 kinds of wood, 74,800 yuan crystals, and three low-grade earth spirit veins... for casting in Liushe and Mingyun boat .”

"The Heavenly Talisman Pavilion played the king's court, and all the talisman jade obtained from the big talisman has been used up. I applied to the king's court to negotiate with the big talisman. A large number of talisman jade was used to engrave various runes..."

"The King's Court in the Spiritual Tool Mansion, two hundred days ago, six thousand pieces of Tai Cang's Slaughter Armor have been cast in the Yiming Secret Realm, and all the items dispatched last time, no matter whether they are spirit gold, yuan crystals, or spirit veins, have been used up. Ask the royal court to transfer..."

...

There is a lot of compromises, full of requests for resources and property to be dispatched.

Except for these palaces.

There are also many city halls that respond to the royal court's decree and want to improve the heating in the city.

The reason is that the popular warm stone heating is still too wasteful to consume spirit crystals, and the heating effect is only limited to one room, which is not satisfactory.

So Wang Ting took the lead and wanted them to transform the city into central heating and cooling.

The original plan was to lay pipes underground, but later, because the Taicang rune technology became more and more developed, the spiritual veins in the Taicang treasury became more and more full.

Therefore, Tiangong Mansion, Tianfu Pavilion, and Lingqi Mansion Shangzuo wanted each city to take the lead in importing burning gold from the Burning Gold Kingdom outside the three realms.

Then from the glacier domain in the extreme north of Baiyu, plunder the glacier frost jade.

Why do you have to import burning gold and plunder glacial frost jade?

The reason is that the people of the Burning Gold Kingdom are not cruel, and they are also a country with developed commerce, while the Glacier Dynasty is just the opposite. The Tai Cang army is mobilized, and there is no burden in their hearts.

Obtain spiritual materials, and then engrave runes on Burning Gold and Glacier Frost Jade respectively.

After that, rune spirit arrays were laid on the bottom of each city, so as to achieve the effect of controlling the temperature in the city at will.

"This method of temperature control was jointly researched by the three palaces."

Zhong Quan and Lu An had smiles on their faces.

Zhong Quan said: "The advantages are very clear, and that is to reduce the consumption of spirit crystals. A huge city with a radius of a hundred miles only needs 1,000 yuan crystals per year, which is enough to supply.

And it can keep the whole city from being attacked by severe cold and heat. "

Ji Xia's complexion darkened when he heard Zhong Quan's words.

He threw the jade fold in his hand onto the table, and said: "If I remember correctly, if you use warm stones for heating, a city with a radius of 20 million people in a hundred miles will only need 500 Yuanjing.

And in the memorial, you have to buy burning gold and plunder glacier frost jade, the waste of traveling by caravans and troops, and the waste of setting up the rune array in advance, don't you take into account? "

Hearing Ji Xia's question, Zhong Quan's face remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "My lord, five hundred yuan crystals per year are indeed enough for 20 million Taicang people to use warm stones for a year.

But it is only enough to turn on the heating stone for two months every year. After the sun is gone, if you want to adjust the temperature, you can't do it. "

Lu An also said: "Today's Taidu is different from before, such a stately and luxurious city, if the buildings are built with stoves for heating, it will easily pollute the environment, and it will also look unsightly."

Ji Xia opened his mouth, thought for a while, and continued to refute: "The people of Taicang have different preferences for temperature. Some old people like warmth, and some young people like cool. If the temperature is adjusted uniformly, wouldn't it lower the temperature of many people?" Comfort?"

"Don't worry, your majesty, we have already taken this part into consideration."

Gu Xuan, the patron of Tianzhifu Mansion, suddenly came out and saluted respectfully: "At that time, Tiangong Mansion and Tianzhi Mansion will put temperature adjustment spiritual weapons in stores in various cities. temperature."

Ji Xia pretended to be furious, pointed at Gu Xuan and said, "Isn't this putting a burden on the people? You guys are so brave!"

Gu Xuan said helplessly: "Once the temperature-regulating talisman array is built, the common people don't need to use spirit crystals to heat themselves, which saves a lot of money...How can a mere temperature-controlling spiritual weapon add burden to the common people?

Moreover, not all common people need temperature-controlled spiritual weapons, and the temperature-regulating talisman can already satisfy ninety-nine percent of ordinary people. "

Many ministers in the hall who participated in the court meeting nodded repeatedly.

I probably also feel that the erection of this large rune array is very necessary.

Ji Xia's spiritual consciousness suddenly flowed out.

In a blink of an eye, he went away to Shanggan Palace in the secret realm of Yeming.

Eight or nine space treasures are placed in a luxuriously carved spiritual wood cabinet in the palace.

His spiritual sense swept over these space treasures one by one.

With 2,000 spiritual veins, 500 of them have already been used up in just five months after sparing no effort in building them.

One-third of the various spiritual materials were exhausted.

"It seems that everything is for the best, and the burden is even heavier."

Ji Xia sighed inwardly.

Withdrawing his spiritual consciousness, he had no choice but to say to Lu An, Gu Xuan, and Zhong Quan in the hall: "In that case, it's all right."
