Since Xia Mingyuan was injured last time, he has been recuperating alone for more than half a year. He took several healing pills and is now finally recovered.

It’s just that physical injuries are easy to recover, but psychological scars are difficult to make up for.

After the last injury, people spread rumors that he was beaten, dozens of bones were broken, and he was beaten like a grandson, and he knelt down and begged for mercy.

At that time, this matter caused a sensation in the city, and everyone was adding fuel to the fire and spreading rumors, reprocessing and creating rumors.

As a result, the rumors became more and more mysterious, and more and more outrageous, with no less than hundreds of versions.

Some people said that he crawled under other people’s crotches more than a dozen times, some people said that he had a sore butt after he came back, and some people said that he...

After Xia Mingyuan recovered a little from his injuries, he flew out every day, floating over Qingzhou City, and surveying the entire city.

Whenever he saw someone whispering, he would slap them into minced meat.

Because he suspected that these people must be laughing at him for being beaten to his knees and calling him grandpa, and even adding fuel to the fire.

A few days ago, a concubine beside him smiled with her hands covering her mouth while talking to him.

Xia Mingyuan didn't ask why and slapped the concubine to death.

Because he suspected that the concubine must disliked his bad breath.

Anyone who has eaten shit knows that the bad smell in the mouth is a shadow that will haunt you for life.

Anyone who dares to laugh at his bad breath is equivalent to mocking him for having eaten shit before, and this kind of hatred is irreconcilable.

Because the last incident was instigated by the evil cultivator Hu Lao Mo.

In addition, he suspected that the evil cultivators also did the rumors spread in the city later, and he now hates the evil cultivators.

During this period, he caught the evil cultivators lurking in Qingzhou City and tortured and killed several of them.

After experiencing various setbacks, Xia Mingyuan, who was originally calm and composed, and neither sad nor happy, is now becoming more and more distorted psychologically.

Even the Xia family members are trembling in front of Xia Mingyuan.

When facing Xia Mingyuan, he dared not speak loudly, dared not stare at Xia Mingyuan, could not look at him, could not laugh casually, but he had to laugh in time and at the right time...

In short, if he made Xia Mingyuan suspicious, he would die.

At this time, Xia Qingshan hurried to the top of the mountain.

"Master..."

Xia Qingshan wiped the sweat from his forehead, adjusted his posture and eyes, managed his facial expressions, and walked to Xia Mingyuan with natural breathing.

"What's the matter? What makes you so anxious?"

"Master, there are two things, one good and one bad."

Xia Qingshan said, and naturally approached the master and took a breath to show that he didn't smell bad breath.

"Let's talk about the good things first!"

Xia Mingyuan was worried that after hearing the bad things, he would not be in the mood to listen to the good things.

"The alchemist we trained finally refined the first foundation-building pill!"

"Really?"

Xia Mingyuan's depressed mood for several years finally relaxed today.

"Absolutely true!"

Xia Qingshan said, holding a small jade box with both hands, opened it, and presented it to Xia Mingyuan.

Xia Mingyuan took out the pill from the box and looked at it carefully, confirming that it was the foundation-building pill.

"Hahaha..."

"Pass my order and reward all alchemists."

"The alchemist who refined the foundation-building pill should be rewarded with 10,000 spiritual stones."

Xia Mingyuan was in a very good mood at the moment, and the haze that had accumulated in his heart in the past was swept away.

With the foundation-building pill, he can refine pills by himself in the future, cultivate his own confidants, and no longer be controlled by the court.

In addition, with the foundation-building pill in hand, he can also trade many things with other forces.

As for the raw materials of the foundation-building pill, although the five spiritual medicines have more requirements, there are still many places in Qingzhou where they can be grown.

In the past, he could only hand over the raw materials he cultivated to the alchemy room in exchange for some other types of elixirs.

"Hahaha..."

After a while of being happy, Xia Mingyuan saw Xia Qingshan with a serious expression on his face, and then he remembered that there was another bad news.

"What is the bad news you are talking about?"

"Just yesterday, the monster's donkey general led the monster army to attack Qingzhou again."

Xia Mingyuan knew that the bad news behind was a bit serious, so he took a deep breath before continuing.

"Yesterday, we had already attacked the next county city in one night, and killed one of our Jindan cultivators..."

"Bang!"

Xia Mingyuan smashed a stone table on the top of the mountain with one palm.

"Such an important thing, why don't you wait until I die before talking about it!"

Xia Mingyuan was furious, and his happiness just now was all in vain.

Xia Qingshan felt very wronged when he was scolded by Xia Mingyuan. Just now, you said that you wanted to hear the good news first.

But now Xia Mingyuan is moody, so he dare not talk back, and can only bear it silently and let it dry his face.

"Where are our people? How are they?"

"We are currently mobilizing people to go to the front line, but we are short of food and people, so it may be difficult to gather all the forces in a short time."

Xia Qingshan knew very well that the current situation in Qingzhou was already rotten.

It was mainly because there were no restrictions and the population had all fled. Now we can't even recruit a few civilians to gather food.

In addition, no food has been collected in the past few years, and the food stored in the Qingzhou treasury has long been gone.

"Didn't you have someone secretly buy a batch of puppets some time ago? Let those puppets go first."

"Puppets are all dead things. They are not afraid of life and death. Even if they are all smashed, there is no need to feel too bad."

Fortunately, Xia Mingyuan is also very strategic.

He had received information before that there were puppets for sale on the black market in Sanyang County, so he asked his subordinates to buy them regardless of the cost.

As expected, I was well prepared and it will come in handy today.

After receiving Xia Mingyuan's instructions, Xia Qingshan hurriedly left and took out all 50 puppets stored in the warehouse.

Among the 50 puppets, each one has the strength of the foundation-building stage, which is equivalent to adding 50 foundation-building combat powers that are not afraid of death out of thin air.

Xia Qingshan took these puppets and sent them to the front line where the two armies were fighting without even having time to take a sip of water.

But when he rushed to the front line, another county fell in a short period of time.

This is not because the demon cannot conquer the third county, but because the demon can only march so fast.

When the Qingzhou Army faced the monster army, it was helpless and collapsed at the first touch.

The whole of Qingzhou has been in decline in recent years, and Qingzhou's army has also become worse and worse.

At this time, Xia Qingshan walked to a military camp, where there were some defeated generals who retreated from the front.

"Manager Xia!"

A Jindan cultivator led a group of minor foundation-building cultivators and saluted Xia Qingshan a little ashamedly.

"Although conditions have been difficult these years and we may sometimes not have enough to eat, we must overcome the difficulties and victory will eventually belong to us."

"I also brought you a weapon to win today!"

Xia Qingshan said, taking out 50 puppets and placing them in front of everyone.

"puppet!"

The Qingzhou Army's eyes lit up when they saw the puppet.

"The demon also has 50 puppets in his hand, so we can use our puppets to compete with the demon."

In the past two days, they had seen the power of the puppets in the demon's hands, but they had caused the Qingzhou Army to suffer a lot.

Now that the two sides are evenly matched in terms of the number of puppets, they finally have some courage to fight again.

When they saw the 50 puppets, everyone in the Qingzhou Army seemed to see the hope of victory.
