Chapter 207 Our young master is the chosen one

Of course, it doesn't make sense to reason with Mu Changan. In the end, Sun Sihun had no choice but to run back to Xuzhou City to report to the Sun's master, while Mu Changan escorted a group of prisoners back.

What's interesting is that this group of captives doesn't need you to worry too much at all. They line up for you one by one and let you be tied up obediently. They are full of experience and quite funny.

The Cangxue Lion Cavalry who had been watching eagerly by the side did not stand up for Sun Sihun's team. The 20-member team just watched Mu Changan and the others turn back without saying a word.

Greeting the snow, stepping on the snow and returning.

After returning to the checkpoint, Mu Changan began to plan how to recruit these captives to his own camp. Now the development momentum of Yongle City has been good, and it is completely possible to expand externally. By continuously expanding the territory, let them help search for more treasures, resources, and even Abandoned Psionic Vein Mine.

But in the same way, expansion also requires troops. These days, the level of cultivation can only determine the upper limit of a power, but the number of troops can determine the height of a power.

Especially in remote areas like this, where the population is sparsely populated, military strength is often the most important factor in determining whether you can gain a firm foothold.

"You will find someone to play a play in a while. I need to touch the heartstrings of these captives from the deepest point, and take the initiative to join our Chang'an Chamber of Commerce, understand?" Mu Changan called Mengcheng and told him his thoughts .

Mengcheng nodded understandingly, and replied: "Don't worry, young master, this subordinate will do it now."

"Remember, be realistic, don't fix those bells and whistles." Mu Changan reminded.

"Yes!"

……

into the night.

It was snowing heavily.

The snow this winter is heavier than in previous years, and the weather is much colder than in previous years. Although the physique of practitioners is much better than that of ordinary people, due to the exhaustion of spiritual energy, the spiritual power in practitioners' bodies is gradually decreasing. The rest can only be used to maintain the realm and prevent it from falling, so there is no spare energy to dispel the cold.

So in the cold, icy and snowy world, it is normal for you to see practitioners stomping their feet out of breath, and it is nothing unusual.

The prisoner camp has been built, just one mile outside the checkpoint, there are more than [-] prisoners, and only [-] soldiers are used to guard them. Even the prisoner camp is built by the soldiers themselves. The efficiency and enthusiasm are not at all. Like a captured soldier after a defeat.

Ten bonfires were lit, and the captives were divided into groups of about 20 people and gathered around the bonfires to keep warm. In fact, they would rather go back to sleep in the tents than to keep warm by the bonfires.

Because of this damn weather, the wind blows at every turn, and when the wind blows, it is cold to the bone. At least the tent can shelter from the wind, can't it?

"Speaking of which, I have felt the smell of winter for five consecutive years." A captured soldier shrank his body, put his hands in his cotton sleeves, and tried his best to lean on his companion, trembling.

A soldier next to him also sighed when he heard the words, and said angrily: "Yes! And it's getting colder every year, winter comes earlier every year, and I don't know how many people will die this year."

The winter in the Cursed God Continent is ruthless. The spiritual energy has been exhausted for five years, the laws of heaven and earth are collapsing, and everything is degrading. Instead of looking for a new way of survival after the spiritual energy is exhausted, human beings have broken out three consecutive wars, resulting in the death and injury of not one out of ten people. , disorderly.

Under such circumstances, the number of human beings dying each year is far higher than that of other creatures. If it were not for everyone's insecurity and difficulty in launching a powerful war, they might have been invaded by other races long ago.

"Oh, I don't know when the spiritual energy will recover!" A soldier sighed, his eyes full of loneliness.

The aura of heaven and earth, which was once called the "least valuable" thing in the Cursed God Continent, can be drawn by everyone with a wave of hand, and can be inhaled with an open mouth. No one would have thought that the aura would be exhausted one day.

Today, it is the fifth year that the spiritual energy has been exhausted.

After this winter, it will be the sixth year...

Survival is a difficult word for humans on Cursed God Continent.

"Instead of thinking about when the spiritual energy will recover, it's better to think about how to earn more spiritual stones to prevent your cultivation base from falling too quickly." At this time, ten soldiers from Yongle City walked towards the ten bonfires with big pots in their hands. Come, put the pot on the campfire, and the white mist will soon rise from it.

"The weather is cold, the young master is sympathetic to you, and specially asked us to chop up the meat of a dying spirit beast to make soup for you to warm up."

It was Zhao Santian who spoke. He has now been promoted to be the captain of the ten-member team, and it is now the time when the spring breeze is in full swing.

"Thank you sir."

"Thank you sir!"

All the prisoners thanked loudly, these came from the heart, after all, it is very comfortable to drink a sip of warm spirit beast soup in the cold weather.

"Mr. Jun, we also want to earn more spirit stones, but rough men like us can't do anything other than serve as guards for rich families, even as soldiers in the barracks." A prisoner rubbed his hands , said a little sadly.

"Let's not talk about what to do, now that the spiritual energy of the world is exhausted, the spirit crystal vein mine has been hollowed out, and it is no longer conceived. One spirit stone is one less, and it is so difficult to earn spirit stones. "Another middle-aged prisoner shook his head and sighed. He is a bit old here. He has been in the army for a long time. Before his spiritual energy was exhausted, he was a captain. After five years of spiritual energy exhaustion, he became a big soldier, and his monthly salary was even higher. Swipe down.

I really feel sad when I think about it.

"That's right! There is no way to earn spirit stones." All the prisoners began to sigh.

Hearing this, Zhao Tiantian smiled and didn't speak. Seeing that the animal meat soup in the pot was already boiling hot, he quickly distributed bowls and chopsticks to them, and shouted: "You can serve them yourself. There is a lot of spirit animal meat in it. You are welcome, our young master. Said, take care of yourself."

"Thank you young master, thank you military master!" Another thank you, the captives were not polite, they picked up spoons to fill their own bowls with soup and meat.

In the snowy weather, with a bowl of warm animal meat soup, after taking a few breaths and taking a sip carefully, I feel comfortable all over.

"Well... delicious, so comfortable!" A prisoner couldn't wait to drink a mouthful of soup, his mouth was hot and he was blowing, but his stomach was warm, and he couldn't help but praise.

"This spirit beast meat actually contains the essence of spiritual energy!" A captive said in surprise after eating a piece of spirit beast meat and feeling the spiritual power in his body begin to conceive.

When the prisoners heard the words, they tried to eat a piece of spirit beast meat one after another, with shocked expressions on their faces.

Yongle City treats the captives so well!Treat them with spirit beast meat that contains the essence of aura!

"Don't be surprised. In our Yongle City, the soldiers will be supplied with spirit beast meat every day. Even the common people in the city can eat a meal of spirit beast meat containing the essence of spirit energy every three days. These are all determined by our young master. Rules." Zhao Tiantian looked indifferently, signaling to the group of prisoners not to make a fuss.

"Master Jun, aren't you afraid that you will eat up your young master's heritage soon after eating so much?" A prisoner asked puzzledly. According to the current environment, all creatures and spirit stones that breed aura are unacceptable. Regeneration, use some and use less, there is no other way except to plunder.

Therefore, for the people on Cursed God Continent, this kind of thing that breeds the essence of spiritual energy is very precious. Even in Xuzhou City, few forces dare to provide food that breeds the essence of spiritual energy to their subordinates every day.

Perhaps because he was happy, Zhao Tiantian did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he squatted down and huddled with them, surrounded by the campfire, stretched out his hands to feel the temperature of the campfire, and said in a low tone, "I don't know, young master. Why do you provide us with spirit beast meat every day, but I heard from our general that the young master is the chosen one, sent by heaven to save the entire God-Cursed Continent."

"Son of the Chosen!" The captives around were startled, this is incredible, he is the Chosen Son of Heaven!
Zhao Santian nodded, glanced left and right, and found that more and more people were coming around, and said in a low voice: "This matter belongs to our Yongle City's secrets, I will tell you today, you must not spread it to the outside world. .According to rumors, our young master is charged with saving the Cursed God Continent. As the chosen one, he possesses a special skill. And it is precisely through this special skill that the young master allows us all to eat spirits. Beast meat."

"Master Jun, I wonder what this special skill is?" All the prisoners were aroused by their curiosity, each of them was very itchy, they didn't even drink the soup, and looked straight at Zhao Santian with their eyes.

Zhao Tiantian hesitated for a while, looked around, and found that all the prisoners had surrounded him, and asked worriedly: "You won't reveal it to the outside world, will you?"

"No way."

"Master Jun, don't worry, we are out of the Yongle area, and we will never spread it to the outside world."

All the captives hurriedly patted their chests and swore a promise.

Only then did Zhao Santian feel relieved, and said in a low voice, "This special skill is to restore the spirituality of all babies who have lost their spirituality!"

"hiss!"

The air drawn by the crowd is very clear in this cold weather.

Let all the babies who have lost their spirituality regain their spirituality!
This……

The prisoners couldn't think of any shocking words to describe their mood at the moment.

"Mr...Mr. Jun, this is unlikely, right?" Some prisoners didn't believe it. This was completely contrary to the law. How could someone be able to do this?
"Yes, Lord Jun, it's not that we don't believe it, it's just that..."

Zhao Santian waved his hand and said, "I know you don't believe it, and I didn't believe it at first, but now everyone who lives in Yongle City believes it."

"Besides, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. I'm just saying it casually. Remember to keep it secret. I won't tell you any more. I have to go back and rest quickly. Tomorrow is the day when Yongle City pays monthly salary, so I have to get up early. .”

"Master Jun, I heard that the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce will distribute monthly salaries to the residents of Yongle City every month. Is this true?" A prisoner asked hurriedly when he saw that Zhao Santian was leaving.

Zhao Santian got up and was about to leave when he heard this, he stopped and turned around and said: "This is not right, only residents who work in Yongle City will be paid a monthly salary, and the monthly salary of ordinary residents is [-] Lingshi If you have a sub-profession, it is usually a monthly salary of two hundred spirit stones. Alchemists are currently the most popular. Not to mention their monthly salary, they will be rewarded with additional spirit stones after refining the prescribed number of cauldrons. Of course, there are soldiers like us. , the basic monthly salary is the highest, with a monthly salary of [-] spirit stones."
