Chapter 375: Sweet First Breath
Originally, Lu Sen's life had always been very comfortable, but the injury of Queen Mother of the West still made him feel a little "nervous".
It stands to reason that the spiritual energy of the entire world is under the control of the whale, so how did Zhang Bairen achieve the goal of "one qi into three pure ones", or even four pure ones.
Even the Queen Mother of the West said that this magical power consumes a lot of spiritual energy.
The saints of that time could only transform into the Three Pure Ones.
How could Zhang Bairen carry out the "Four Cleanups"?
Everyone left, and Lu Sen stayed in the Queen Mother's room. He asked, "Can you find the location of the Heavenly Palace?"
"You can't find it." Queen Mother of the West sighed and said, "Although Jianmu provides spiritual energy to the Heavenly Palace, it is only a one-way supply. It is not the entrance to the Heavenly Palace. Instead, it is just a temporary 'exit', which doesn't matter if it collapses."
Although Kunlun Mountain is stronger in combat power, Heaven is more balanced and versatile.
After all, institutionalized forces are far more productive than simple tribal systems.
The logistics and technology are also more advanced.
The effect of the golden apple continued to take effect, and the Queen Mother of the West had recovered and regained her appearance as a mature woman.
"Although I was beaten badly, it was also very satisfying." Queen Mother of the West stretched her waist, her curves swelled: "Thank you, Lu Sen."
Fighting with great pleasure means getting hurt.
Generally speaking, when wild animals are injured, they have to find a place to hide until the wound heals.
But in fact... she was about to die at that time and did not dare to return to Kunlun Mountain.
Because at this time in Kunlun Mountain, there is much more spiritual energy than before, and the strength of many big monsters is only two or three times of their original strength.
If Yao Qiong, who was seriously injured at that time, went back, there was no guarantee that there would not be a powerful demon attacking her.
After all, Kunlun Mountain was rebuilt by her after she suppressed it with force.
That will naturally backfire on you through "force".
So her first reaction was to come to Hangzhou City to find Lu Sen.
She trusted Lu Sen 100% and he would not attack her or hurt her.
"It's what I should do." Lu Sen nodded: "Next time when I go back to Kunlun, it's better to bring two or three more companions."
"I understand." Queen Mother of the West smiled.
In the days that followed, things seemed to have returned to calm.
But Lu Sen knew that beneath the calm sea, there was a terrible "volcano" about to erupt.
The enemy is very good at hiding.
The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light.
But we can only carry out open conspiracy.
Although Lu Sen has a sense of urgency, he is becoming less and less anxious to act. Now, throughout the Song Dynasty, men, women, young and old are learning the basic Qi-refining techniques.
No matter what your aptitude is, as long as you practice, you can strengthen your body, even if you can't fly high.
It is common to see elderly people in their seventies carrying objects weighing one or two hundred kilograms and walking briskly.
The physical fitness of the people of the entire Song Dynasty has reached an unprecedented level.
Bao Zheng and Master Pang often said that the Song Dynasty at this time had the spirit of its ancient ancestors, and everyone could be enemies of tigers and leopards.
And practicing Qigong has become a basic common sense.
If you don't practice Qi, no one will want to hire you to do heavy work at the docks.
Not enough strength.
It was also under such circumstances that the situation of foreign businessmen or barbarians with some knowledge detaining the Song Dynasty became increasingly serious.
People who have come to the Song Dynasty, after breathing in the spiritual air here, never want to leave.
There was a student from Goryeo named Park Shuping, who was a member of the royal family. He was a student at the Imperial Academy in the Song Dynasty and also a hostage.
When the time came, he had to go back to Goryeo and replace another royal member as a hostage, but he immediately became unwilling.
He hurriedly found his "teacher's" home, knelt down at the door and cried, "I arrived in heaven in March last year. My breath was sweet at first, but I found that Korea stinks, like a toilet. Please don't chase me away!"
This matter spread throughout the city of Bianjing, and everyone who heard it laughed and was speechless.
Even the Goryeo royal bloodline is like this, let alone ordinary barbarians.
The large number of detainees has become a problem.
Not to mention the border, just look at the several ports of the Song Dynasty. In many hidden corners, a random search will reveal a large number of Semu "refugees".
The same is true for Hangzhou City.
Zhao Zongchu specially invited many martial arts masters for this purpose.
"I have already told you the details." Zhao Zongchu was now in a state of headache: "How should we deal with those Semu people? Do you have any good ideas?"
"That's not easy, just kill them all." A martial arts master said without hesitation.
Zhao Zongchu smiled bitterly and said, "If it were that simple, there would be no need to invite you all here. There are at least 3,000 Seljuq refugees at the port. My personal estimate is that there are at least 5,000 of them. They are all unwilling to leave, and they have become a problem."
There are many things that can be said but cannot be done by the government.
The security at the port is actually very poor.
Although almost no people from the Song Dynasty would go there, the Semites were fighting among themselves, snatching things and food, and the situation was very chaotic.
People are thrown into the sea every day.
When looking at the sea view from the city wall, you would often see a floating corpse passing by, and the scene was extremely creepy.
The leaders of various sects all shook their heads.
If there were only a few or even a dozen Semites, they would just find a way to get rid of them and kill them.
But thousands of people... I would find it scary to kill them all.
That's not five thousand pigs.
"Actually, there is a way." Suddenly, a white-bearded leader said in a low voice.
Zhao Zongchu's eyes lit up, and he quickly clasped his fists and said, "Master Yan, please teach me."
This Master Yan is the elder of the Pure Clothes Sect of the Beggars' Sect, so it's okay to just call him the Master.
He clasped his fists and said, "You are too polite, Prefect Zhao. There are thousands of beggars wandering around in Wuyou Cave in Bianjing City. Why not let them out and deal with these Semites? It would be fine as long as the court rewards them afterwards."
The beggars in the waterways of Bianjing City were so bold that they even dared to kidnap royal relatives.
Although Kaifeng Prefecture suppressed the rebellion again and again, the effect was not very good.
When Zhao Zongchu heard this, he said disappointedly: "If even Kaifeng Prefecture can't do it, how can I be worthy of it!"
Elder Yan clasped his fists and said, "I am willing to go and try to accomplish this. If I succeed, please ask the prefect Zhao to reward me with a treasure."
Seeing that he was confident, Zhao Zongchu thought about it and decided to give it a try and let the man go.
Then he asked, "You want that treasure?"
"I heard that the prefect Zhao is the brother-in-law of Master Lu. I am not greedy. I only want a bottle of royal jelly from the immortal family."
The relationship between Zhao Zongchu and Lu Sen is known to everyone.
Naturally, I know that there must be good things in his home.
At this time, Zhao Zongchu actually had more than a dozen bottles of honey at home, all of which were saved because he usually didn't want to eat them.
He felt a little sad when he heard it, but when he thought about the thousands of Semites at the port, if this could really be done without dirtying his hands, then giving away a bottle of fairy honey would be worth it.
He nodded and said, "Don't worry, if this is accomplished, I will definitely give you the immortal honey."
Sect Leader Yan stood up, bowed, and left immediately.
About four months later, a bloody incident broke out at the port of Hangzhou City, which lasted for half a year.
Large numbers of corpses are thrown into the sea every day.
But half a year later, security at the port improved.
During this period, for every eight eyes of the Semu people that a beggar possessed, he could exchange them for a household registration certificate in a dilapidated house outside Hangzhou, and then live in the "annexed" city to the north of Hangzhou, and he could also get an acre of land.
Although it is not a good farmland, it can be used to grow sweet potatoes or fairy rice and feed a few people without any problem.
Afterwards, other port offices followed suit.
Within a year, the threat from Wuyou Cave was completely eliminated, and the trouble caused by the detention of barbarians was also greatly reduced.
