I became an old man in my leisure time

In the past, Dawu had too few warriors and low overall strength. In fact, most of the interior of the Eternal Ice Peak had not been occupied.

Now that Daxin has been vigorously developing for a hundred years, it has nominally expanded beyond the four wonders, covering an area of ​​more than 100,000 miles, which is more than a hundred times the original Dawu. Google search reading

However, this is only a nominal expansion after all.

In fact, it is completely under the control of Daxin people, and the area that can ensure basic safety and freedom is limited to 10,000 miles outside the four wonders.

This is also the maximum distance protected by the various characteristics of the four wonders.

If monsters enter this range, they will be significantly suppressed and weakened.

Growing various crops will also receive greater bonuses.

Further outward are the blessed cities that have been built one after another in the past hundred years.

There are more than a thousand of them in total, but in the vast world of monsters, they are just like sand in the sea.

Under Gu Ke's arrangement, these blessed cities are still expanding gradually in the form of networks.

Most of them are not too far apart, and they can help each other and jointly resist foreign monsters.

Only a few blessed cities were placed in more remote and distant locations as pathfinders.

Now, the residents of these remote blessed cities have begun to retreat back to the four wonders through the secret realm.

Only a small number of martial arts masters stayed in the ancestral temple to monitor the movements of the monsters, investigate their subsequent scale, and then pass the information back.

In an emergency, they would not resist and would evacuate through the secret realm.

Fortunately, the ancestral temple was built next to the cave, and there was a large area of ​​blessed land outside. Any monster entering it would be weakened by the blessed land first.

Entering the ancestral temple would directly encounter the system's sheltering power.

There are very few monsters who are so stubborn that they want to "send their heads".

Even if they are inferior monsters with only animal instincts, they are also very resistant to moving in the blessed land.

This is as outrageous as asking ordinary people not to take the road and can only swim in the water to move forward - they will be exhausted without reaching the destination.

Even though it was still safe, the mood and face of those who stayed in the ancestral temple were quite bad.

The intelligence they observed and recorded was constantly sent back to the rear through the fairy mountain, which also made the Holy Emperor Su Yulou, who received the intelligence, and the members of the military department who worked with him feel uneasy.

The scale of the attack by the demon world this time was beyond imagination.

But after the intelligence was integrated these days, the people in the military department speculated that perhaps this was not a simple attack, but more likely a "migration\

,"that is, these demons were actually "moving", and Daxin was just their "route" or "destination" for moving.

This speculation made those who knew about it very frightened.

Moving is nothing, but the movement of a tribe with extremely strong strength may be a big deal for other tribes.

For example, when elephants migrated on the grasslands in the previous life, the elephant paths they stepped on would form puddles of various sizes, and the various plants they ate along the way would become feces to fertilize the land.

In front of them, all kinds of predators and vegetarians would jump around and stay away. For Daxin now, the great migration of the demon world is really similar to the elephant herd.

Perhaps Daxin can become a predator, and maybe even kill the fragile baby elephants, as well as the old, weak, and sick elephants.

But there are not many ways to deal with the target group.

Recently, many old subordinates have come to the ancestral temple for private communication. Some are straightforward and some are euphemistic, but the meaning is similar.

That is--will Xianshan take action this time? Or--can Xianshan help this time? Min Junyi just shook his head and broke their fantasy.

When he was alone, he sighed: "In the past hundred years, Xianshan has gradually disappeared, and no one has appeared in public. You are very satisfied, but now you want someone to take over? There is no such good thing.'

No one would complain that they have too much power, and the same is true for Daxin.

They respect Xianshan and are even sincere to Xianshan, but it does not mean that they want Xianshan to be their "emperor", especially the kind of emperor who always points fingers.

Gu Ke also understands this mentality, anyway, he is the same.

The reason why he is not interested in Daxin's power is because there are more troubles, and being an emperor is not the same as the "power" he needs.

Just like African chiefs have power, but capitalists will not fight for it themselves, but control it indirectly, so that they can get enough benefits and leave all the troubles to the chiefs.

This is how the United States treated the countries in Central and South America in the previous life.

Similarly, when Daxin encounters a crisis again this time, he is not as anxious as before .

In a hundred years, Daxin has developed extremely rapidly, and so has Gu Ke. Yulong Fudi alone has a population of more than 10 million.

The original Wusheng, together with the current Daxin, have helped him scrape land in the Monster World for more than a hundred years.

These are hundreds of millions of people who work diligently, constantly getting a large amount of materials from the Monster World every day, and filling them all into the secret realm.

Moreover, the higher the average strength of the people going to the Monster World, the more materials they can scrape back.

Today, the secret realm has more than 20 million people, and has formed another brand-new society, or country.

The residents themselves requested the fairy mountain, and the country was named Taoyuan.

The system of Taoyuan is different from the imperial system of Daxin, and is more like a town alliance.

There is no superior-subordinate relationship between the major cities, only the clan elders’ meeting at the highest level, and problems are solved through consultation.

Major problems that cannot be solved are reported to the fairy mountain, and the fairy mountain makes the decision.

The writing, calendar, law, and weights and measures in the secret land of Taoyuan were all unified by Gu Ke.

With this as a foundation, after more than a hundred years of compulsory education, the people of Taoyuan are quite different from the newcomers in the outside world.

First, the environment of Taoyuan is more peaceful and free, and people have enough material foundation and conditions to further research and advance in various industries.

Second, Gu Ke will intentionally or unintentionally release some slightly "advanced" ideas, and will not engage in "mosquito rain".

Therefore, the social form of Taoyuan is no longer like the ancient feudal dynasty, but has some modern social appearance.

And there is enough land in the secret land, so Gu Ke opened up the birth restrictions.

Taoyuan has truly become a paradise independent of the outside world, and the residents reproduce and thrive in it without relying on external help.

However, Gu Ke is not raising pigs, and he has no intention of letting them stay in Taoyuan to enjoy themselves.

Taoyuan also has garrisons, and recruits warriors of two or more rounds for a long time to go to the monster world to hunt monsters and collect materials.

The merits obtained can be exchanged for various cultivation materials and benefits.

The population of Taoyuan is much smaller than that of Daxin. Gu Ke personally arranged several separate blessed cities in the deeper part of the demon world for their use.

With his own Taoyuan and Yulong blessed land, Gu Ke would not be too enthusiastic about Daxin.

Including Bihai City, Taiping City, and Xiongjia City, his relationship with him is no longer as close as before.

As time goes by, people are also changing from generation to generation.

In the past, the elderly who had seen him and received his help in these direct lines either entered the secret realm for retirement or died many years ago.

Most of the middle and senior management who control these places now were born after the establishment of Daxin.

Not to mention how much affection they have for the fairy mountain and the ancestors, at least Gu Ke is not unfamiliar with them.

Just like going back to your hometown during the holidays, you will see relatives who are either aunts or uncles, but most of them have not been together for several years or more than ten years except in name, so where does the sense of closeness come from.

Only Li Xiuer still insists on serving as the elder in Taiping City.

Song Wu Niang still runs Yuxianju in Bihai City, and the old Wu Zong in Bihai City is also an old man in Liangshan Village.

Xiong Xiaoxiao still has a lot of contact with Xiongjiacheng.

Wang Xiaomai is still living in seclusion in Mingzhou Prefecture.

These people have maintained a little incense relationship between Gu Ke and these forces in disguise, otherwise they are just a few forces that are relatively close to Xianshan.

Over the past hundred years, there are not many forces with the same sincerity as them, but there are more than a few, and there are really not many ordinary ones.

This may also be one of the reasons why the royal (royal) family and the aristocratic families of Wusheng ignore the lower class.

After all, most of them can live to seventy or eighty, and a small number of middle and high-level people can live to more than a hundred years old. It is difficult to empathize with the people who are considered "long-lived" in their fifties and sixties.

At this moment, Gu Ke really wants to know what Min Junyi wants, but he has no idea of ​​fulfilling their wishes.

Min Junyi also understands that the "personal relationship" between him and Xianshan has disappeared with the passage of a hundred years.

The countless golden threads of blessing are encouragement for everyone and have nothing to do with him.

The "privilege" he still has is limited to the fastest query and release of information through "Xianling".

This is because he is the emperor of Daxin, and he needs to coordinate the overall situation.

In fact, he and Xianling have no personal relationship. The other party is really like a cold and mechanical puppet, and only gives feedback according to the rules.

Thinking about his younger sister Su Yulou for more than ten years, he has not seen the "Mr. Qin" again, and Min Junyi is even more regretful.

He did hint to his younger sister and tried to "lead" her to practice in seclusion.

At that time, Mr. Qin did not agree, and later told Su Yulou that Xianshan can only cooperate with people from the royal family, and has no chance to do anything else.

The relationship with Su Yulou is purely personal, and he cannot be led into Xianshan.

The old ancestral temple can only sigh that his luck is not good enough, and there is nothing else to do.

This is how the world is. There is no general reason. Some things seem to be in front of you, but they are always just a little short of it and cannot be achieved.

This matter is really not Gu Ke's pretentiousness.

The Su Yulou siblings of the Old Ancestral Temple are truly leaders who are "focused" by Daxin Tiandao, and have received huge benefits from it.

Otherwise, it would not be so difficult for them to be promoted to Wuzong, and they would have a smooth journey.

If Gu Ke accepted them, it would be equivalent to "poaching" people from Daxin Tiandao, and the two with the highest value would be poached.

This requires high compensation.

The previous eldest lady was in this situation, but he gave it willingly.

The Su siblings have no ordinary relationship with him, so Gu Ke will naturally not be a sucker.

Besides, it is useless to accept them into the fairy mountain.

In terms of strength, the siblings are no better than Min Jun, and together they are not enough for the eldest lady to beat with one hand.

In terms of management and leadership, Gu Ke has also cultivated a lot of talents among the tens of millions of people, which are closer to the needs of Taoyuan than the siblings who grew up from Min Jun.

So the Su siblings are still more suitable to continue to lead Daxin.

Here are the officials, generals, and troops they have trained along the way, as well as the Daxin people who believe in them, which can maximize their strength and ability.

Letting them live in the immortal mountain is the biggest waste

North of Shen Su Yuqing, in the blessed land city group extending into the demon world within thousands of miles, countless defenders are waiting in full battle array.

Above, many great warriors are suspended in the sky and looking into the distance, acting as staring hands.

Not long after, a Min Jun roared: "To the north, the enemy has been discovered! The enemy has been discovered!" "A large number of strange things are approaching. The number is incalculable. The number is incalculable." Following his roar, other staring Min Jun also reported on the surrounding situation one after another.

Although the defenders below could not see the whole situation, they also knew that the monsters were heading south.

Fortunately, after they stepped into the range of Shen Su Yuqing, they felt uncomfortable and moved away one after another. So we followed an arc and continued southward.

The blessed land city group under the protection of Shen Minjun has not been attacked for the time being, but the east and west sides have been divided into more and more groups of monsters.

Originally, many people in the garrison were still eager to try, ready to start a large-scale war when they saw the strange thing.

Seeing the group of strange things that kept coming from the north also gave up this unreliable idea.

Let's start the war now. They will be exhausted and they won't be able to finish them all.

It's not the point that you can't kill them all. The point is that if you run out of health now, will you just stare at the monsters in the future?

Therefore, in the past few days, the monsters have approached and crossed the four wonderlands.

The four large groups of blessed land cities in front of the sudden attack all maintained restraint. Almost all of them adopted regular rotations and sent out warriors with sufficient blood in batches to conduct tentative attacks. There were very few situations where large armies pressed forward and they tried their best to attack.

Of course, that rarely means anyone still does it.

The result is also obvious. A steady stream of subsequent monsters were killed, and they were replenished in less than half a day.

It felt like I had just taken a bite of sesame pancake, and it quickly returned to its original state.

Most of the defenders are the new generation, and they have not experienced the third heavenly change of the Martial Saint. Although I have read relevant information before, I have no intuitive feeling.

In their impression, the monsters are indeed killing people endlessly, but they are just killing them today, and they will have to wait ten days and a half, or several months or a year before new monsters appear.

What was in front of them now was the feeling of "spawning monsters on the spot" not long after killing them. They finally understood why the information reminded them to "maintain confidence and avoid being impatient, which is not conducive to long-term perseverance."

This is already a very euphemistic way of saying it.

Faced with countless monsters and monsters that could not be killed, the garrison personnel were not only frustrated and impetuous, but also desperate.

However, most people still maintain a lot of confidence. After all, Wonderland and Blessed Land have a protective range, which can make it difficult for monsters and monsters to enter, let alone besiege the city.

But with the influx of a large number of monsters into Daxin, people found that the protection scope of Wonderland and Blessed City was shrinking.

The monsters surrounding them are approaching each city little by little.

In Shanshui Villa, Xiao Man also looked at the monsters swarming hundreds of miles into the sea with great confusion. He turned to ask Gu Ke: "Why is the scope of protection in my palace shrinking?'
