Chapter 367: Choosing Jiding Yanshan and Opening the Mountain (I)

Natural selection is the only law in the world.

Whoever is strong will be qualified to speak and call the shots. Whoever is weak can only be slaughtered by others.

Survival of the fittest, the jungle eats the strong. For people living in this earthly world, although it is not as incisive and profound as Liu Xing's understanding, it is not uncommon.

Xie Nu's own ability was too far behind to compete with Liu Xing at all. This doomed him to the reality that his daughter was nominally going to marry Liu Xing's brother, but was actually taken away by Liu Xing and taken as a hostage. And he can only accept such a reality of natural selection.

Because he knew very well in his heart that Liu Xing wanted to use him to first re-sinicize the people in Xijing and Yanmen's hometown, so that this place would no longer become a big trouble for the Great Song Dynasty.

Because he knew very well in his heart that Liu Xing wanted to turn him into another king of letters, everything had to obey Liu Xing's orders, be a puppet emperor, and help Liu Xing manage this land that had been away from the Central Plains for too long.

But Xie Nu knows better that if he wants to reverse such a reality, he can only choose to accept Liu Xing's conditions, and he can only choose to obey Liu Xing.

If you want to become strong yourself, you must first follow someone who is strong enough. The people of the Central Plains like to say that "it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree", but Xie Nu thinks that only with the help of the strong can he avoid many detours and quickly become stronger.

Therefore, after the sadness, Xie Nu could only clean up his mood and immediately dispatch troops and horses to prepare to face the three demon beast regiments in the barren mountains and valleys that were originally unknown and destined to become famous after today......

There are no eternal friends between people, only mutual support and mutual help forever.

There is no eternal harmony between nations, only after one side is integrated into its own system by the other. Only then will there be a truly long-lasting harmony.

There will never be permanent allies between countries, and some only use each other.

Liu Xing may not have a deeper understanding of these in his heart than Zong Ze, Xie Nu, Wu Qimai and Zhao Gou, but he still understands the truth very well.

Because he understood these truths, when Liu Lu walked in front of the five elders of the Shenxiao Sect and Yang Ling'er, who had been in charge of staying behind and had not participated in the slaughter of the Western Xia Wolf Clan, he made up a new idea in his heart.

"Senior Brother Sa. Since Wang Xianjun founded our faction, has my Shenxiao faction not had a real place to build a foundation? The idea was quickly determined, and Liu Xingyi stood still and asked Sa Shoujian.

I don't know why, but I can only answer immediately, Sa Shoujian said: "Sect Master, yes." Although in the past, although our sect distributed the five directions according to the five elements, they all established Taoist temples separately, and did not officially determine where the main lineage was. ”

"What do you think of that mountain over there?" After listening to Sa Shoujian's answer, Liu Xingyi turned around and pointed to a high mountain in the north of the valley and said.

When Sa Shoujian heard this, he looked up. I saw a lone peak towering into the sky among the rolling mountains. The east and west are not connected to other peaks, and it seems that there are thousands of high cliffs on three sides. That situation is actually a bit imaginary with the naturally formed mountains of the Hunter Valley.

On that high mountain, there is a large area of flat land at the top of the mountain, which is officially a good place for the construction of the city of Tiangong......

After seeing the mountain, Sa Shoujian nodded slightly, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "That big mountain is full of fog, dense forests, high and dangerous, and uninhabited, it is a good place to build a view." It's just that I don't know if there are other cultivators living in seclusion in the mountains. If not, it would be a good place for me to build a foundation. ”

"What if there are other cultivators in the mountains? This land. Originally, I was Han. Even if there are really other cultivators, if he is a Han Chinese, let him submit to my Shenxiao Sect, the Donghu tribe or the Demon Dao, and destroy him directly. ”

First, he looked at the mountain coldly and said, and then Liu Xing's face softened a little and said: "Presumably, that mountain does not have an official name yet, and this will be the Yan Kingdom of Jiagu Shenu in the future, so I will name that mountain Dingyan Mountain." Shenxiao faction, Dingyan Mountain. From then on, it is where the sect of my Shenxiao sect is located and where its foundation is. ”

"But ......"

Before Liu Xing's voice fell, Yuan Tingzhi, who was standing aside and was in charge of the Shenxiao Sect's wealth and silk branch, suddenly spoke: "But the cost of building a Guanyu where my sect's foundation is located is too great. Sect Master, with our faction now existing on its own, I'm afraid it won't be able to support it! ”

No money. After listening to Yuan Tingzhi's words, Liu Xing understood that he was telling himself that the Shenxiao Sect was actually a sect with no money.

The Shenxiao faction was founded by Wang Wenqing, and it has been attached to the Great Song Dynasty since its inception, and it is a sect that relies on Song Huizong to pay money from his own private rather than the treasury every year.

Such a sect has no industry or business of its own, and it is already a very good thing that it can prevent more than 3,000 people from going hungry. Therefore, there is no money to build a large Taoist temple, and Liu Xing is not surprised at all......

Since it is not unexpected, since the idea of building a foundation comes from himself, Liu Xing naturally has a plan.

Looking sideways at Yuan Tingzhi, Liu Xing pointed to the surrounding mountains and said, "A radius of three hundred miles, classified as the property of the Shenxiao Sect." I looked here and found that there should be a lot of coal in the mountains in the northeast corner, and the west and south directions are suitable for planting fruit trees, and the basin in the valley is also a good place to cultivate fertile land. As long as I send my disciples to endure more hardships, it will not take more than a year to turn barren mountains into fertile fields. ”

After a slight pause, Liu Xing thought for a while, and then Ji'er said: "The sect has opened its foundation, and the imperial court should support it. After I went back, I first asked the household department to allocate 100,000 dragon yuan and 200,000 stone rice, and then set a one-tenth dividend for all the mines that will be opened up in the future in this vicinity as the remuneration for the protection of the Shenxiao faction. What's the matter, Senior Brother Yuan, do you think this should be enough for me to send a foundation to establish a business, right? ”

"Enough, enough."

One hundred thousand dragon yuan, that's enough money for three thousand Shenxiao sect disciples to do nothing and eat for three years! 200,000 stone meters can even make the disciples of the Shenxiao Sect eat for three or four years.

As soon as he heard Liu Xing's words, Yuan Tingzhi immediately smiled.

"Still."

However, just when Yuan Tingzhi laughed and nodded repeatedly, Liu Xing's face sank and said: "These things paid by the imperial court are not given in vain, I hope that in the future, the five senior brothers can use this land as the foundation, spread the branches and leaves, and at the same time promote the Taoism to every corner of the Western Xia and Yan Kingdoms." I hope that within ten years, the Shenxiao Sect will no longer be the Imperial Reward Sect of the Great Song Dynasty, but will make the Western Xia and Yan Kingdoms also become the places where the teachings of the Shenxiao Sect will be inherited, so that the subjects of those two countries will believe in and be loyal to our Sect.
