The Taoist ancestor is Cthulhu

Dao Ancestor is Cthulhu Chapter 412 Promoting the Descendants

Li Fan knew that he had no such thing as a bastard's spirit.

However, he had seen the experience of these Danxue Mountain guards before. He knew that they were besieged by a group of monsters, fled all the way, lost the Phoenix Nest, and were executed according to military law. Now that they are desperate and want to seek refuge under the Mozhu Mountain for survival, it is not possible. Accident.

Of course, he was still a little curious, "What kind of treatment will the Nangong family give you?"

Chang Jian replied, "One hundred and eighty guan of money and three hundred and sixty shi of rice per year..."

Li Fan was stunned, "Oh, it seems like a lot."

It's quite a lot. There is no place to spend money when you are a soldier. There are looting and military merit rewards, not to mention the rice is given directly. When he was using the golden elixir, he only had ten guans a month...

Chang Jian smiled bitterly, "We handed it over to the Nangong family."

"What??"

"We have been the military household of the Nangong family for generations. We have to cultivate land and pay taxes to support ourselves. If we owe taxes and pay, we have to use military merits and deeds to offset the debt. I will ask the superiors for a loan."

"According to the old rules of the Suwei Immortal Army, although our military households pay taxes and serve, the Immortal Army also has armor-arming skills, foundation-building elixirs, etc., which are distributed based on military merit and qualifications. Therefore, it is okay for a village to work together to support a few Immortal Soldiers as backers. Barely feasible..."

"But now the harvest is getting worse every year, the Shen Gang money is not worth much, and the foundation-building elixir for hair is often insufficient, and there are not so many military merits. You have to bribe the superior to get the weapons!"

"In the past, you could still become an immortal by working for the Immortal Palace, but now this road has long been blocked! Everything costs money! Pills cost money! Military achievements cost money! Promotion costs money! Even those damaged by normal training cost money. Armor and weapons must be paid for and returned to the military commander!"

"It's getting more and more outrageous! I haven't been paid for ten years! I haven't received the subsidy for guarding southern Xinjiang for a long time! I work as a soldier for the Nangong family, but I owe the Nangong family thousands of dollars every year. !”

"In the past, we could still fight some monsters, steal some phoenix feathers and sell them to merchants, and hand over some heads to the captain to support us. But recently, we are not even allowed to kill monsters! It's a joke! Why should I come to the south if I don't kill monsters! I If I don’t kill it, they will kill me too!”

Speaking of the Nangong family, the immortal soldiers were really complaining and angry. Every word you said to me made them want to spit out their shit.

Li Fan was stunned when he heard it, but after asking carefully, he understood.

In the final analysis, the Nangong Clan is still an old-school foreign vassal immortal army. The military system is not much different from the Suwei Army. They are ordinary people who farm the land for the immortal palace. The immortals select qualified people from their subjects and train them into heavenly soldiers and generals.

The promotion in the Immortal Army back then had the characteristics of Xuanmen's merit-based selection and divine religion's discussion of merit. It could also be regarded as a formal promotion channel from mortal to immortal.

But the problem is, as the demon clan was expelled and killed, and the Immortal Palace became peaceful for a long time, this channel was naturally cut off.

With their military exploits and accumulation, Su Wei in the Central Plains quickly became a clan. The land has been divided up by these immortal cultivating families, and normal taxes have long been unable to be collected. Only by selling official titles with clearly marked prices can the normal operation of the Miyuan court's expenses be maintained.

Oh, you want to be hereditary as your father's captain, okay, pay the money. Oh, you want to be the guardian of the Immortal Palace, okay, pay the money. Oh, you want the Divine Infant Pill to be upgraded, right? OK, pay the money.

So now the Twelve Kingdoms of Immortal Palace play like this, and the Nangong family doesn't do anything particularly excessive. They are just normal Suwei warlords. Maybe a careerist like Nangong Immortal King, in order to organize a rebel army, would sell the internal techniques and elixirs cheaply!

But the problem is that these subjects of the Nangong family really have no money!

Who are Miyuan? People have followed the Immortal Lord and reaped the dividends for thousands of years, okay? A few outer elixirs are nothing! Which one doesn’t have a lot of magical skills, secret techniques, and family treasures and private soldiers! Just send a servant to the war and that's it, you don't even have to go there yourself!

Who are these people from Liguo? They were said to be foreign vassal troops, but they were all poor people who had their fields occupied and were driven out of the Central Plains to open up wasteland! It's miserable enough to fight for land with monsters and beasts in the deep mountains and old forests to cultivate farmland! You also have to pay protection fees! Still have to do military service! No military pay! Don’t let anyone live anymore!

Of course, the Nangong family should not be so stupid. Judging from the size of the existing immortal army with a large number of golden elixirs and Yuanying, the strength of the Nangong family at that time was probably indeed able to support the strongest army among the eight lords. Not quite yet.

Considering that what they were facing at that time was the Immortal Palace that had been ravaged one after another by various forces such as Xuanmen, Divine Sect, Northern Expeditionary Army, Luo Feng Army, Luo Sect, and Black Lotus Sect, it was impossible to Fortunately, when the Nangong family rebelled, they did have a slim chance of winning.

But the problem is that the Nangong family still can't beat this kind of opponent. They lose in one try. Who can blame them...

After the Guanzhu took Mozhushan to make the cut, and even lost the titles of General Zhennan and Lizhou Mu, Nangong's economy must have suffered a huge deficit, but for the survival of the family, it was necessary to maintain an army to protect itself.

In the past, they were still pretending to be big-tailed wolves, but recently the Nangong family has also begun to use troops against the Xun Kingdom and the Kun Kingdom. It must be very tight internally. It is understandable that the soldiers and horses on the Shiwandashan side were directly abandoned.

Moreover, Li Fan felt that there was no need to treat everyone like rubbish. Compared with the Central Plains, the quality of the Nangong family's immortal soldiers was at the normal level, not much worse. After all, they were selected to join the army only because they had the qualifications to practice. After all, they were veterans who had guarded southern Xinjiang for many years.

The immortal soldiers at the bottom are the most sensitive to lack of food and pay, and they probably don't have much loyalty to the weird people of the Nangong family, let alone some of them are so mean, and they still understand that the Nangong family has given away gods worth tens of thousands of gold. Infant elixir and golden elixir level armor weapons are cheap and can be given to you on credit for thousands of dollars, right?

So Li Fan raised his hand to comfort the immortal soldiers who were so excited that they were about to cry.

"The Nangong family is despicable and rebellious! I, Mo Zhushan, have never been ashamed of these rebellious officials and traitors! We only concluded a no-war agreement with them to avoid the loss of life. Since you can't live anymore and are willing to abandon the dark and turn to the light, I will not cut off your way of life. .

I can accommodate you temporarily in Lingqiu Mountain. If you give up your military membership of the Nangong family, Mozhu Mountain will naturally have a place for you.

But what you mean is that you disdain to practice with the people, and you still want to be treated like a disciple of Mozhu Mountain, right?

But to be the steward of my Moshan Li family, your current skills are not enough..."

Chang Jian and the others were seen through by Li Fan and did not dare to mess around in front of such a vicious person. They quickly stopped complaining and recommended themselves,

"I have been fighting against the monster clan in Danxue Mountain all year round. I have made many military exploits. If I haven't killed any monster in the village, I am an old opponent!

It’s just that I can’t move up because I don’t have the money to gain military merit, and I can’t get the Divine Infant Pill breakthrough!

Mozhu Mountain is going to destroy the mountain and cut down the temple, and we are willing to be the vanguard. We can also help train these refugees. We are also familiar with the method of marching in battle formations! If Guishan suppresses the south and attacks the north in the future, we will also be willing to win the hearts of the mountain lord! "

In order to hug their thighs, these people almost said, "I want to lead the way!" Let me lead the way! ’ It’s etched on my face.

Li Fan shook his head and smiled, "I don't lack your fighting power, and I don't want to seize the Nangong family's territory. I just want to show everyone a new way. If you want to come, just follow me.

But let me start with my ugly words, you are all veterans. I estimate that if you follow Nangong's banner and work as a slut for the tiger, you are greedy for life and afraid of death, forget your righteousness for the sake of profit, and are afraid of danger and hardship, your Taoist heart has long been ruined.

If you convert to my path now, I think you will escape death. If you don't have the consciousness to commit suicide, it's better to abandon your armor and become a grassroots farmer. Anyway, we in Mozhu Mountain are very scarce in farming right now, so we will lend you pigs to help you plow the fields. "

But how could Chang Jian's group of immortal soldiers give up their immortal path and go farming? Their reasoning is also very simple. If you follow someone with a big fist, you can be more powerful than a tiger. It doesn't matter if you don't have meat to eat but have soup to drink. Anyway, don't be a poor person and be bullied, so They all knelt down and did it again,

"I am willing to die for the mountain master!"

They were making such a big fuss. Li Moyun, who looked like a big man, also had some thoughts, so he waved his hand, and a group of homeless commanders and their adopted sons also knelt down and worshiped, "I would like to be the master of the mountain." Die!"

One by one, they shouted at the top of their lungs, as if the boys from each class were fighting at a school sports meeting, attracting everyone's attention...

Chen Asha and a group of Mozhushan disciples looked at Li Fan with a look like, 'Don't even think about it, we won't do this.'

Li Fan also coughed twice in embarrassment, "Okay, okay, everyone, don't be too polite. This time I suffered a sect disaster in Mozhu Mountain, and got together with the activities of destroying mountains and temples, and I am entangled in anger. It's exactly A good opportunity for everyone to change their lives against the odds.

I have already eaten half full, and I had no intention of making any more moves. But I see that all of you are nothing more than wine sacks, useless snacks, and useless. If I really want to entrust you with the important task of destroying mountains and temples, I won’t even look at it. The big reality is that I really can’t rest assured.

Therefore, I decided to take you and other juniors together to patrol the mountains and slay monsters, and go to Yangjia Mountain for some training. I will see your actual level and accumulate some luck, and then I will teach you in accordance with your aptitude. Don’t die too quickly if you go up a few levels.

Now, if anyone is willing to go out with me to slay monsters, they can gather as a team outside the formation. If they don't want to take risks, they can stay in Zhonggu and guard the dojo. "

So Li Fan waved his hand to send everyone away to prepare for the expedition, turned around and handed Zhonggu's formation flag to Fu Ling, and gave her some instructions on how to open and close the Zhonggu formation.

After all, a key place like Zhonggu was besieged by a group of demons for more than a day or two. The magic array arranged by Huang Zhenren has been polished for many years. It has been tested and repaired for a long time. There are several sets of spare spiritual pulse magic weapons for the large array, and there are sixty-four variations, which can trap and kill four god-transforming demon kings at the same time. The opponent's tens of thousands of demon soldiers had been fighting for a long time, and they were all too cautious not to rush in. This also shows how powerful this formation is. In fact, there is no need to have a real person to guard it at all. If you send a disciple at the golden elixir realm to operate, you can completely defend it with the help of a large formation that has been polished for many years.

It's a pity that although Poria is good at business and logistics, her qualifications are still a little bit behind. In a hurry, she can only remember how to follow the steps step by step, chanting incantations, opening and closing formations, and making calculations based on the opponent's situation while fighting. Forget about advanced gameplay like changing formations. The level of Xuanmen disciples is really not something that can be achieved by just being diligent and rote memorizing.

So Li Fan took a look for himself, repaired the formation, and gave Fuling the thunder talisman, sword talisman, and other things that Hengshan had given him for self-defense. He wanted to give some advice on the techniques, but the problem was that Fu Ling's qualifications were really not up to par. He had followed Fairy Wangshu for so many years, and he was only at the level of a Zhushan disciple.

On the contrary, Fuling was worried about him, and gave him some mind-calming elixirs, and repeatedly told him, "Qingyue, your state is unstable now, so be more careful and don't kill again."

Li Fan also nodded in agreement, "It's okay, sister Fuling, don't worry, I'll just take the newcomers to gain experience, and then go back after a while. Let's go!"

Fu Ling has actually been responsible for coordinating matters between the Chamber of Commerce and Mozhu Mountain these years. In the past, she only managed Jiang Ji's people to make a few bucks. Now, she has to do all the business in the south. She is so busy that she can only After saying a few words, he looked at Li Fan's escaping sword shadow and lamented that the brat who had such a bewildered look in his eyes that he could only stare at the young lady's ways has grown up so quickly. It's really sad.

At this time, Chen Asha, Li Moyun and Chang Jian were also organized and ready.

There are about thirty disciples of Mozhu Mountain on Chen Asha's side, all of whom are in the Golden Elixir realm and are from the Nine Peaks of Zhushan.

In fact, in the entire Zhushan Mountain, excluding the group of machine engineers at Tiangong Peak, the upgrade route is different. They go directly to the secret realm of Tianwaixian to study, and there is no need to go to the front line to fight. The total number of Jindan disciples in the other eight peaks is only a hundred, which is a bit Those who can come to Shiwanda Mountain to practice their skills have to do it in half, and half of them must be on guard here in Lingqiu Mountain, and half on the other side of Yangjia Mountain.

Now that Lei Ze has not opened, there are usually more monsters coming from Feishan to the west, so Lingqiu Mountain is actually the rear. The disciples of the Mozhu Mountain Southern Sect that Li Fan knew before, including Yuan Tianxiao, Liu Qingyuan Xuanbao and the others, are now mostly on the frontline defense on the Yangjia Mountain side. Chen Asha and Poria had become golden elixirs in this way, and their actual combat skills were somewhat inferior, so they were left behind to help with supplies.

The group organized by Li Moyun was not large. There were about 80 Jindan monks, which could be regarded as gathering all the refugee commanders and casual cultivators into a group. These people also know that they are gold diggers from outside. It is rare for this master of Mount Mo to take him out to practice. A large group of wastes that are impossible to build the foundation and refine Qi also come with them. Therefore, there are those who are in the realm of golden elixir and are confident that their cultivation is not weak. If you have just arrived and your other abilities are still lacking, then you won’t be embarrassed if you come here.

On the contrary, the Nangong Immortal Soldiers from Chang Jian's side, not only the group from Danxue Mountain, but also the group that escaped from Lunzhe Mountain, came together. In total, there were 250 Jindan Immortal Soldiers. They were actually the most numerous and well-equipped. The best and the one with the strongest fighting spirit.

Such a large force of more than 300 people made an agreement with the bosses of the trading companies to build three large cargo ships with empty cabins. They probably really thought that Li Fan was going to take them to fight monsters and make a fortune from all the materials. They were all in high spirits, UU Reading www.uukanshu. net full of expectations.

"Not enough, not enough. There are a lot of people in the other three mountains. Let's bring three more boats. Bring all the storage jade. This time I'm going to do a big one!"

Li Fan also grinned.

Haha, you are still too naive.

It's really a good thing that it's so easy to spawn monsters with the big player. How could Li Fan leave Poria cocos to dry? You must bring her with you, okay?

Yes, Li Fan will not really just patrol the mountain once.

Is there anything else to visit? Now that he had killed all the nearby demon clans, the two demon kings fled to Lunzhe Mountain without their lives, being chased by a group of hungry and thirsty old men. As for the place in Feishan, Li Fan had been there back then. It was a ruined mine with no vegetation and it would certainly not be able to support many monsters.

So the big head is still Lei Ze!

Yes, Razer! How can we always let monsters come and go freely? You have to push back occasionally and retaliate!

Yes, he promised the old men to guard Zhonggu and not to eat alone, but he can support the younger generations! And take the initiative to sweep away the monsters in Leize, so you don't have to worry about them invading Zhonggu!

At worst, he won't eat alone and will bring some takeout for the old men. Anyway, Li Fan has made up his mind to only take action in critical moments to raise some monsters to protect his disciples. As for the little demons, wouldn't it be nice to be generous and let Asha and the others practice leveling up to overcome the tribulation?

So Li Fan planned to go around a few other mountains first, then pick up some people, and then go to Leize to do something. But of course, he also knew that this trip was a bit dangerous. With so many people, there would inevitably be some casualties. If Xuantian hadn't insisted on letting Asha inherit the sword immortality, he actually wanted to leave this girl behind.

Although playing with bugs is disgusting, it is safer than killing people with a sword fairy.

Alas, forget it, wealth can only be found in danger, it depends on her fortune.
