Chapter 236 My Disciple Has Grown Up
On his way back to the royal city, Qin Mo stayed in Ba City for a day, mainly to listen to Jia Xu's report and discuss the reorganization of prisoners of war and the governance of Ba County and Shu County.
In this battle,
After replenishing the casualties of each unit, the remaining prisoners of war can be reorganized into a legion.
"Your Majesty, should we take advantage of the situation to reorganize it into the Tenth Corps of the Nanyue Army?" Jia Xu asked.
"No," Qin Mo shook his head. "The name is the Black Water Army Second Corps. From now on, all the prisoners of war from the Qin Army will be incorporated into the Black Water Army."
He still couldn't forget Blackwater City.
Although Blackwater City is gone, Qin Mo still hopes that the flag of the Blackwater Army can continue to fly in the Warring States world.
Just consider it as a little sustenance.
"I understand, your humble servant." Jia Xu's voice was also a little low.
I feel very sad.
After finishing the business, Qin Mo said with a smile: "After finishing the affairs in Shu, Prime Minister, please hurry back to the royal city as soon as possible. I have an important task for you."
"What mission?" Jia Xu asked subconsciously.
Qin Mo: "I will send envoys to Chu, Qi, Yan, and Wei to try to form another alliance so that the five countries can attack Qin."
"I understand, your Highness!"
This was also within Jia Xu's expectations, as the king had vaguely mentioned it before.
"I'm afraid that Qin will take action first." Jia Xu was a little worried.
"No matter how Qin changes, the five kingdoms' attack on Qin is an inevitable trend. This is called an open conspiracy."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Jia Xu seemed to be thinking about something. It seemed that everything was under the control of the king.
…
Longchuan City.
As soon as Qin Mo came back, he heard good news - Diao Chan had come out of seclusion.
Like Qin Mo,
For Diao Chan who has embarked on the path of making golden elixirs, it is only natural for her to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
“Okay, okay!”
Qin Mo was in a good mood when he saw his beloved disciple's cultivation progress. Unknowingly, the little girl from the Three Kingdoms subcontinent had grown into a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage.
"Thank you, Master, for your kindness."
In Diao Chan's eyes, she is still the little girl she was before, full of admiration for her master.
"Now that I have achieved success in my cultivation, it is time to travel around the world and gain some knowledge." Qin Mo thought of something and said, "Chan'er, go call your brothers and sisters. I have something to tell you."
"Um!"
Diao Chan nodded obediently and turned away.
Slightly tilted,
The three disciples came together to pay their respects.
"Master, I heard that you won another great victory on the front line. When will you take me with you?" Yan Chixia asked anxiously for battle as soon as he came up.
The reality is that Yan Chixia was panicked.
Seeing that his junior sister Diao Chan had broken through to the Nascent Soul stage and was only one small realm lower than him, his status as a senior brother was about to be lost, so he had to find something to do quickly.
"Want to fight? Okay."
Qin Mo had already made arrangements. "I heard that you performed well in the Black Water Army. So, the Prime Minister is reorganizing the Second Black Water Army in Shu. You can go there and serve as the commander."
"Thank you, Master!"
Yan Chixia saluted in a proper manner, his face beaming with joy.
"As for Xueqi and Chan'er, after the Prime Minister returns to the royal city, he will go on a diplomatic mission to the four countries in Shandong. You two will accompany him and act as guards. You must protect the Prime Minister. Just treat it as an experience." Qin Mo said.
Because it was an official diplomatic mission, the State of Yue was officially established.
In principle,
The Qin State did not dare to send assassins to assassinate openly, otherwise, it would not only be a slap in the face of the Yue State, but also a slap in the face of the host country.
The rules of the game have been broken, and the cost is so high that even the Qin State may not be able to afford it.
If they really bully the weak and cause dissatisfaction among Laozi, Zhuangzi and other bigwigs, they will use Taoist magic to make the Qin State pay the price.
Qin Mo did this ostensibly to protect them, but in reality he was helping the two disciples gain some knowledge.
at the same time,
It is also an opportunity to accumulate merit by doing things for the State of Yue.
When the fortune of Yue State rises in the future, they, as Qin Mo's direct disciples, will be able to share part of the merit and fortune with peace of mind.
So as not to be criticized by others or even punished by heaven.
At the previous founding ceremony, a sea of luck descended from the sky, but Qin Mo himself did not actually get any merit or luck, nor did he receive any additional experience points as a reward.
Firstly, the founding ceremony had limited luck and its effect on Qin Mo was also limited.
He had already received a reward from Heaven before.
Secondly, most of the luck that Qin Mo gained was shared by the Zixiao Sword and the Yellow Bird.
There are very few left.
I guess only when Yue Kingdom unifies the world, Qin Mo will be able to benefit from it.
…
After seeing off the three disciples, Qin Mo, who had some free time, began to think about the next arrangements.
In terms of personal practice,
On the one hand, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of breaking through to the Void Refining Stage to refine Lingcui Peak's fighting spirit and further strengthen the strength of the 108 Demon Lords.
The current 108 Demon Lords can no longer help Qin Mo.
The next step is to refine seventy-two fighting soul flags and collect a total of one hundred and eight techniques to strengthen the power of the Tiangang Disha Formation.
Because the Warring States subcontinent was rich in cultivation resources and the land of Baiyue was an uncultivated wilderness, Bai Hua found some rare materials when he was searching for refining materials from various tribes.
Including the treasures presented to Qin Mo by the tribal chief.
One after another,
Qin Mo has accumulated a batch of refining materials, enough to be used to refine the War Soul Banner.
As for the remaining Jinshan Temple and Fulong Ding, Qin Mo has not yet thought of a way to improve them. The former requires opportunity, and the latter requires powerful monsters.
They are things you can only encounter by chance.
In terms of Taoist magic, in addition to the Purple Mansion Heavenly Thunder that he has already "learned", Qin Mo also mastered a powerful Taoist magic in his previous life - the Broken Jade Art, but this Taoist magic was not derived from the "Shenxiao True Method".
It is an independent Taoist art.
The Broken Jade Art means to destroy both the jade and the stone. It is better to be broken into pieces than to live in disgrace.
After using it, your strength can be improved in a short period of time.
There are nine levels in total, and the higher you go, the greater the improvement in strength.
Of course, the sequelae are also greater.
It's just the first level. You can't cast spells again within three months, and your muscles ache all over your body.
The key is that this technique cannot be performed continuously. If it is performed twice in a row within a month, there is a risk of the body being shattered, and it is very likely that the body will explode and die.
This Taoist technique is very suitable for Qin Mo, who has made great achievements in body training.
Ever since entering the Void Refining Stage, Qin Mo has been busy with the affairs of the Kingdom of Yue and has had no time to practice. He will start practicing when he has some free time.
A lot of life-saving trump cards.
As for other things, Qin Mo had no other tricks up his sleeve.
For example, a real magic weapon.
Whether it is the Fulong Ding or the Jiutian Xuansha Tower, Qin Mo is used to calling them magic weapons, or even saying they are ancient magic weapons.
In fact, none of them can be considered real magic weapons, at most they can only be considered pseudo-magic weapons.
To be precise, it should be a spiritual weapon.
It is just one level higher than the magic weapons used by ordinary monks.
The biggest difference between a true magic weapon and a spiritual weapon is that it is born with a spirit and possesses spirituality.
In a sense, it can even evolve.
It can even pass through the forty-nine heavenly tribulations like the cultivators and become the legendary Pure Yang magic weapon.
There are spiritual treasures further up.
In the previous life, in the prehistoric universe where the world of earthly immortals was located, there were several Taoist-level bosses, all of whom were reincarnations of innate or acquired spiritual treasures.
Including the Taoist Ancestor of Destruction from the Shenxiao Sect.
Generally speaking,
Only immortals possess real magic weapons. In his previous life, Qin Mo had no chance to obtain even the lowest-level magic weapon before he passed the tribulation.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be that difficult.
And in this life, in the battle of Blackwater City, if Qin Mo had a magic weapon in his hand, he would be able to kill Ba Shang immediately , so why would he hesitate?
This is of course just wishful thinking...
Even in the previous life, there were only a few people in the Shenxiao Sect who possessed magic weapons.
Qin Mo finally discovered it.
In this life, although he seemed very glorious with the help of "Honghuang", he actually did not have many real adventures, and they were all achieved through hard work.
It basically depends on the accumulation of the previous life.
Qin Mo was just sighing when the female official came to report: "Your Majesty, there is a man named Zhou Shihong outside the palace who wants to see you."
"Please come in."
Qin Mo can act like the King of Yue in front of others, but he certainly can't do that to Zhou Shihong.
That's too rude.
Fortunately, Zhou Shihong was soon led to the study by the female official.
"Congratulations!"
Zhou Shihong was also well-informed. "I don't come here for no reason."
"If there's anything I can do, just tell me." Qin Mo wasn't shy about it.
Although he helped Tianshu a lot in reality, Tianshu also gave a lot back to Qin Mo. At least, without Tianshu's help, the shipment of materials would not be so smooth.
The Battle of Bashu will be postponed for at least half a year.
Or even longer.
In the current situation, half a year is enough time for a lot of changes to happen.
"How about I recommend another group of people to you?" Zhou Shihong said tentatively.
The land of Bashu is well developed and is indeed a place where luck converges. The moment it was conquered by the Kingdom of Yue, countless players had already set their sights on it, and they were all eager to try.
I hope to get a good official position in Bashu and other counties.
Some people even set their sights on the position of county governor.
Not to mention the players, even Zhou Shihong himself was a little tempted when he saw Yue State becoming more and more prosperous.
"so……"
Qin Mo frowned and said in embarrassment: "I am not planning to adjust the officials of Bashu County for the time being."
"Why is this?" Zhou Shihong was puzzled.
"First, it is to stabilize the people's hearts in Bashu and allow this large granary to continue to operate smoothly. In addition, it is also related to the current employment mechanism of Yue State." Qin Mo explained.
“What is the employment mechanism?”
Qin Mo then explained the system of agricultural officials created by Bai Hua, "This is my plan. After the first batch of agricultural officials have served for a full year, I will promote a group of them and transfer them to Bashu."
In this way, a virtuous circle is formed.
"What you mean is that if players want to serve in Bashu, they must first serve as agricultural officials and perform well during this period before they have a chance?" Zhou Shihong understood it immediately.
"That's what I mean."
The Kingdom of Yue was founded by Qin Mo. It is impossible for him to let players reap the benefits easily.
Most popular positions,
Naturally, it should be reserved for the person who made the greatest contribution to the Kingdom of Yue.
Zhou Shihong was silent for a long time before he said, "Your idea is very good, but I am a bit abrupt. I won't recommend anyone this time, and we'll talk next time."
"good."
Qin Mo looked calm.
This was the first time he rejected Tianshu's request...
