45 years.

Autumn.

Jiang Gan temporarily broke his attention away from the entanglement with the mortal corpse path, the mortal formation path, and the mortal path, and looked towards the small central square.

In Han Lin's perennial retreat school, 45-year-old He Tiezhu rarely entered the school. Now he has restrained the sharpness of 20 years ago, and he is no longer deliberately cold and hard as ten years ago. He is just dressed in casual clothes Standing in the hall with his hands behind his back, he has a heart-wrenching demeanor.

He looked at the row of bookshelves against the wall. It was originally full of books, but now it was empty.

The long case next to the bookshelf that originally contained various talisman paper, talisman and ink materials, now there are only empty wooden boxes and a few bald pens. Everywhere he looks, it shows that this house is about to be "destroyed". empty house” reality.

"Is this... going to leave?" He Tiezhu thought in his heart.

In this regard, he did not feel how abrupt it was. For this day, he had been mentally prepared many years ago.

Mr. Xiao Han is a man with secrets.

Regarding this point, not only He Tiezhu knew it well, Han Lin also knew that He Tiezhu knew it well, but the tacit understanding between the two parties was that no one ever talked about this point.Qianqian

It is precisely because everyone is acting in tacit understanding that the two parties who have cooperated for ten years still trust each other, and have not given birth to dirty thoughts because of the massive benefits.

But this does not prevent He Tiezhu from realizing early on that a person like Mr. Xiao Han cannot be permanently restrained by the mortal world of Piaoshan Camp.

When a practitioner reaches a certain level, he will stay away from the world of mortals. Even if he stays occasionally, he will leave quickly after the task is completed. Only the immortal way is the eternal pursuit of this kind of person. This is what Mr. Qinghe taught him when he was young. reason.

Therefore, unless Mr. Xiao Han has given up his pursuit of immortality and indulged in the world of mortals like other Xiaoxiu Yangxiu stranded in the Piaoshan camp, he will leave one day after all.

The more extraordinary he is, the sooner this day will come.

It was rare to be invited by Mr. Xiao Han, but he was not too surprised when he came in and saw such a scene.

At this moment, the closed door of the study room opened, and Han Lin walked out from it in a clean suit.

Han Lin, who is 27 years old this year and has been in seclusion for many years, stands in front of the extraordinary He Tiezhu, but looks a bit mediocre, without brilliance, and ordinary.

He Tiezhu asked respectfully, "Mr. Xiao Han, are you leaving?"

Han Lin nodded, his expression relaxed and joyful, "Yes, we are leaving."

Although he had known about such a result, He Tiezhu still said with regret: "I thought this day would come a few years later... After you leave, the entire Piaoshan camp will lose a lot of glory."

"The entire Piaoshan camp will lose its glory?...You are too exaggerated." Han Lin shook his head with a smile, and then sighed: "I didn't dare to delay for a moment in these years, so I arrived at the threshold of Taoism today... If it is a few years later, I am afraid that my path will be completely cut off."

There is a saying in the common sense of Taoism recognized in the practice circle that entering the Tao is a big hurdle every ten years.

Those who can enter the Tao before the age of ten are evildoers, and those who can enter the Tao before the age of 20 are geniuses. Even if you are a genius of parallel imports, as long as you can successfully enter the Tao before the threshold of 20 years old, there is a high probability that the parallel imports will become genuine.

Those who can enter the Tao before the age of 30 can be regarded as geniuses among ordinary practitioners. Although they cannot be compared with evildoers, nor can they be compared with real geniuses, they can be regarded as the seeds of the great way compared to those mediocre people.

In the same way, even if it is a parallel import, as long as it successfully crosses this hurdle, there is a high probability that the parallel import will become genuine.

Looking at the entire practice world, excluding those cases that are too special and have no reference value, 30% of those who have truly achieved great achievements in practice entered the Tao before the age of [-].

Han Lin was able to stand in front of this barrier when he was 27 years old. Even though it was forcibly heaped up by the resources that could make other nourishment realm Xiaoxiu greedy and envious to death, he used these huge resources to forcibly create a new world for himself. The high steps allowed him to reach the threshold of Taoism, but when he really touched this threshold, it seemed that he could enter easily with just turning over, and he felt only luck and joy in his heart.

He remembered the business of calling He Tiezhu, took out four stacks of talismans from the storage bag and handed them to He Tiezhu.

"So many?!" He Tiezhu was surprised.

Rao He Tiezhu has handled tens of thousands of talismans over the years, but each time Han Lin carefully controlled the shipments, the one time he sold the most, the total number of talismans in his hands did not exceed [-].

But the four stacks in his hand now, not to mention four hundred, he estimated that the total may exceed four thousand, and each stack has more than a thousand talismans.

Han Lin also had some hesitation about handing over so many talismans to He Tiezhu at one time, but he decided to do so considering the good cooperation over the years and the solid mutual trust built up with each other.

He explained to He Tiezhu:

"The main purpose of my going out this time is to attack the Dao. For practitioners, this is the most important hurdle. As long as conditions are available, everyone will choose a better place to retreat and attack.

Akajifang City has a high-standard retreat quiet room, and the conditions are not worse than the entrance quiet room in the academy. Therefore, I will go to Chijifang City for retreat.

A period of time after successfully entering the Tao is the time when the practitioner’s body and mind are most active. Therefore, after I successfully enter the Tao, I will continue to practice in seclusion. I will not be distracted to do other things until this state is over.

Therefore, this retreat will be longer, maybe one or two years, or three or four years, depending on how long I can stay in that state. "

Having said that, he pointed to the large pile of talismans held by He Tiezhu, and said: "This is what I have saved over the years. There are a total of [-] pieces. You can slowly release them according to the usual rhythm." Goods, it can be fully sold within two years."

As he spoke, he also explained something specially, and laughed at himself: "After this retreat, I will most likely become poor and useless, and there will be many places where I need to use spirit stones, so I hope you can take advantage of my retreat. During this period of time, help me store up the spirit stone, and then I will come directly to you to get it."

He Tiezhu nodded to express his understanding, but asked: "Mr. Xiao Han, next time you come here, will you leave after getting the spirit stone or will you stay forever?"

Han Lin was puzzled: "Why do you ask me this?"

He Tiezhu explained:

"Even though the criteria for becoming a long-term resident of Pyoshan have been strictly stipulated, the city of Pyoshan is already overcrowded. The council has discussed several times, and I forcibly pressed down on expansion.

However, the time has come for a major change.

The basic layout of the urban area is still the same as it was more than 30 years ago. At that time, I was not in charge. How could I have predicted that Pyoshan would be so grand today?

It has been overwhelmed by now, the streets are crowded, the square is narrow, everyone seems to be forced into a small cage. Although there have been minor changes over the years, the basic pattern remains the same, and small fights will not be able to get rid of after all. original shadow.

Therefore, there are more and more voices supporting the complete demolition and reconstruction of Pyoshan City.

This small central square is naturally the first to bear the brunt. Considering that Mr. Xiao Han has been recuperating here all year round, I forcibly suppressed this matter. The reconstruction is completed, so that the reconstruction work of the entire city will not be delayed. "

Having said that, he looked at Han Lin, "If you will stay here permanently in the future, I will make a plan in advance when arranging the renovation, so that it will be convenient for you to retreat here in the future."

After hearing He Tiezhu's explanation, Han Lin was a little dazed. He Tiezhu's explanation was really beyond his expectation, but after careful consideration, it was reasonable.

But because this would involve the complete demolition and reconstruction of the entire city, he suddenly became a little worried.

He couldn't help asking: "How will the new urban area be expanded, but will there still be a central square? Where will it be?"

What he thought in his heart was that the mysterious stone plate that had been lying quietly in his storage bag for nearly ten years was his biggest trump card and his greatest confidence.

He has already figured it out that the mysterious stone plate "hardly dug out" from the ground of Mount Piao that day by the game-playing senior is very likely to be closely related to the city itself, and even the prerequisite for it to work is that it must be in the city of Piaoshan. Only a place extending in all directions and a hub center can be effective.

In order to purchase medicinal pills for cultivation, he often went to Chijifang City. For this reason, he also quietly verified that after the mysterious stone plate left the range of Mount Piao, there was no more mysterious appearance, and it became a piece of stone. An uncommon stone plate.

Let him figure out the structure of the talisman in his mind, but there is no trace on the mysterious stone plate.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this land of mortals in Piaoshan City is the place where he became enlightened. After leaving here, he will once again become that mediocre little monk who is destined to be eliminated.

Now, the old urban area of ​​Pyoshan has to be completely demolished and rebuilt.

"Will this sever the connection between this city and the mysterious stone disk?"

"Mysterious stone plate, will you still recognize the new Piaoshan City?"

"Will the well-connected place, the hub center...will change with the expansion?"

All these questions made him in a good mood suddenly become worried. They were all about his "survival". As for He Tiezhu's concern about getting him a place that would be convenient for him to retreat for a long time, he really didn't even think about it. Not in the mood to think about it.

If the mysterious stone plate is completely useless because of the waste and new construction, you just built a flower in that retreat, do you really expect me to live in it for a day?

As long as the effect of the mysterious stone plate is not lost, even if I am allowed to sleep on the street, I will be happy!

Moreover, the function of the mysterious stone plate has not been lost by luck, and it is not clear where it will interact with the newly built Piaoshan City, and how to determine the place for future cleansing.

Rather than letting He Tiezhu create such a place ahead of time, it is better to do nothing, and then he will be more comfortable looking for the place where energy and energy can interact.

These thoughts flashed in his mind, but he did not use his relationship with He Tiezhu to make him stop the expansion, and still maintain the current layout of the city.

He can hold it for a while, but he can't hold it for a lifetime.

More importantly, He Tiezhu respected him very much because he was a practitioner, and his performance over the years made him recognize that he was a practitioner who was as determined as the ancestor Qinghe.

It's not because I'm stronger than him.

In terms of strength alone, not to mention that he can't compare with He Tiezhu now, even if he really succeeded in entering the Tao and became a monk of Qi training, if he fights with He Tiezhu, he will also be the loser.

Although he didn't care about where the [-]% of He Tiezhu's income from selling talismans had been spent over the years, he looked at the pair of boots under He Tiezhu's feet with restrained and hidden aura fluctuations, and the close-fitting underwear under his ordinary casual clothes—— It is not difficult to see now that the warp and weft lines of this inner garment have the shadow of the rune structure.

This is the use of silk threads as patterns, and weaving clothes as drawing talismans. It does not need talisman paper as a carrier. This is the work of a real master of talisman. Clothes whose wearer's activities change at any time always maintain the characteristics of talismans.

And the belt around the waist, the hairpin on the head...

He spent all his resources on accumulating cultivation, except for his whole body, he was innocent from head to house, but He Tiezhu used all of it to arm himself.

Leaving the long-term aside, the effect achieved by the latter far exceeds that of the former in terms of the short-term effect.

Therefore, since He Tiezhu said these words, this matter is already a certainty. He respected that he did not do this while in retreat, but he is not qualified to push his nose and face, so he can only let it happen.

He Tiezhu didn't know that Mr. Xiao Han suddenly became worried because of what he said, and introduced with great interest:

"Because Piaoshanfang is not far to the southeast, the expansion of Piaoshan City can neither go east nor south, but only west and north.

Of course there will still be a central square, but, compared to the place we are standing at now, the central square at that time will move to the northwest, the existing city walls will be demolished, and the reclamation areas outside the northern city and west city will also be destroyed. Incorporated into the scope of the new city, so, with the expansion of the city, the existing northern outer city will also have to move north, and the land reclamation will have to be promoted again..."

Chapter 89 Five layers of death, the sky marks are missing

As soon as Han Lin left, thousands of men came around the small central square.

They are bare-chested and shorts, and they are dressed in lean and knotted chickens, and hammers and shovels made of fine iron are like weapons in their hands.

It only took half a day, except for the reservoir and the three spirit peach trees, all the original buildings within a radius of [-] meters that Jiang Gan could look at were all razed to the ground.

Those materials that can be reused are transported away, and other materials that cannot be reused are turned into waste.

Including He Tiezhu's He Mansion, Yaowang Valley, Shenbing Pavilion, the residence of Wanli Escort Bureau, etc., of course, including the central small square itself.

Jiang Gan watched these changes quietly, but what he thought of was the earlier enclosures and sheds, and the period when the leek grass informed this area before human footprints came here.

An era drowns an era.

The new era covers the old era, and the newer era covers the new era, the new becomes old, and the old becomes even older...so layer upon layer, except for myself, the only witness, thousands of years later , who will remember what it looked like at the beginning?

In He Tiezhu's mind, Jiang Gan has already seen the picture of the next era.

The area of ​​Piaoshan New City will be more than 81 times that of the current urban area. The city wall of two kilometers long and wide will be expanded to nine kilometers long and wide, and the urban area of ​​four square kilometers will be expanded to [-] square kilometers.

Xu was fed up with the lack of foresight when building the old city. This time, from top to bottom, everyone involved in making the plan became very radical.

81 square kilometers, Jiang Gan remembers that Tang Chang'an, the largest capital of Ganyuan, is only 84 square kilometers. The Piaoshan camp counts the population of all settlements, directly subordinate and affiliated, and the total population is only about 50. They all moved to Pyoshan New City, and there will still be a lot of gaps in the big city to fill.

But they didn't care about it from top to bottom, and they didn't think about filling up the city within a few years. It would be great if they could fill up the city in the next three to fifty years.

"If you can't foresee the situation in three to fifty years, you are not qualified to participate in the formulation of this plan."

"The Piaoshan camp is a place of new development and a place of hope. Every year, even every day, there are people coming in a steady stream. How many people did we have 20 years ago? How about ten years ago? Now?

Then you can think of how many people there will be in ten years, 20 years, and 30 years? "

"This new city of ours, not to mention a hundred years, is always needed for three to fifty years. Otherwise, it will be built this year and demolished next year, rebuilt the year after, and demolished after three to five years. Isn't this a toss?"
