Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On the way back to Wuji Mountain, Zhao Ran said nothing and was rejected by Heshanyi. He could already foresee what kind of attitude Liuzhuangyi would have towards his proposal, so to be honest, he was a little depressed.  However, not long after he was depressed, his mood suddenly improved a lot - at this moment, he felt another trace of heat in the sea of ??air.

    The old donkey raised up his hooves, and one of the donkeys took the lead to fight back to Wuji Mountain, leaving Guan Er and Lu Jin behind. Not to mention how the two people felt about the old donkey, Zhao Ran hurried back to his house and immediately rushed  Close the door and follow the method in the first chapter of the "Innate Merit Sutra" to convert the total three strands of merit power you have obtained into magic power.

    "The Sutra of Innate Merit and Virtue" does not emphasize regulating the breath and exhaling, so the transformation is very fast, and it can be accomplished in just a few breaths.  But after the transformation, Zhao Ran discovered that the amount of mana in his Qi Sea was too little, almost to the point of being insignificant.  He roughly estimated the transformation ratio in his mind, which was probably between ten to one, but the mana after transformation was much more solid than the merit power before transformation.  If the power of merit is like cotton, then the power of magic is like a rope.

    What can this little mana do?  There was almost nothing he could do. The only thing Zhao Ran could do was to verify according to the method mentioned in the scriptures - a small spark rose from his fingertips and died out in a few breaths. As the sparks continued,  Disappeared, and the mana in his Qi Sea was immediately exhausted.

    Zhao Ran was not in a hurry. He closed his eyes and rested for a moment, then walked around the Wuji Courtyard. After spending about an hour, his mana was restored, and Zhao Ran could continue to play the trick of lighting fires with his fingertips.

    In the eyes of others, it may be just an insignificant step, but for Zhao Ran, it is an earth-shaking step!  Zhao Ran was so excited that he wanted to shout out - I can finally practice!

    After getting excited, Zhao Ran began to think about his practice plan.

    The first thing that needs to be solved is the problem of lack of merit power. Since it does not come from absorption, Zhao Ran thinks that perhaps the word "cultivation" is more in line with the actual situation.  This problem has now taken shape, which is to do good deeds, do practical things, and do things that are beneficial to others.  The establishment of the relief station was a useful attempt on his part. With the smooth progress of the rescue at Yangmayi, he was able to cultivate his merit power from time to time. As long as the relief efforts continued, his merit power would continue to increase.

    Then what you need to consider is what kind of exercises you should practice after converting your merit power into usable magic power.  The "Xiantian Tao Te Ching" solves the problem of presence or absence, but after having magic power, how should it be used?  This is not recorded in the scriptures.  Therefore, the problem facing Zhao Ran now is that he does not have a Taoist book for practice.  How to draw talismans, how to cast spells, how to fight, these things are all means to save life. Without the corresponding means, he will have no magic power but cannot use it, let alone fight with others.

    But now it seems that he still has some time to buffer. After all, if he wants to learn magical powers, he must first accumulate enough mana.

    Zhao Ran thought about it carefully for a long time, and many ideas came to his mind.  Isn¡¯t it easy to do good things?  Learn from Uncle Lei's good example. He has been deeply educated since he was a child and has kept this in mind.

    As soon as he thought of it, Zhao Ran immediately asked Guan Er and Lu Jin to be summoned.  The task given to them is very simple, which is to recruit workers in the surrounding fields.  Guan Er was very confused, but he still followed Zhao Ran's instructions and went to several villages at the foot of Wuji Mountain, and did not return to the mountain until very late.

    Early the next morning, Zhao Ran took Guan Er and Lu Jin down the mountain. A group of strong laborers had already arrived at the foot of the mountain as promised.  Following Zhao Ran's instructions, Guan Er and Lu Jin recruited ten good young men and even hired a mason from Guyang County.  The agreed upon reward was ten cents for a day's work, plus two meals, and the mason's remuneration was doubled.  Now is the slack time for farming, and these people are willing to come and serve as servants to earn some household subsidies.

    A group of people drove two carts. One cart was loaded with various tools, and the other cart was filled with new tiles, lime and other materials. They swarmed to follow Zhao Ran to the countryside.

    The first village Zhao Ran went to was in Niu Village, five miles northwest of Wuji Mountain. This village was almost all tenants of Wuji Yuan, and they rented and farmed the property in the courtyard. Of course, you have to start doing good things from your own side.

    After entering the village, Zhao Ran called the elders in the village to come. Zhao Ran explained his purpose in a few words, which made the elders stunned for a long time and did not respond.  Zhao Ran's request was very simple, that is, let the old man lead the way and be responsible for communication and explanation, and he would renovate the houses of all the dilapidated houses in the village.

    Of course the old man¡¯s surname was Li. He actually understood what Zhao Ran meant, but he didn¡¯t understand ¡°why¡± Zhao Ran did this. He could only feel dizzy and was ¡°escorted¡± by Zhao Ran to the first house in Dongtou.  When Zhao Ran saw the several holes in the wall of this house that were randomly filled with thatch, he immediately expressed his great displeasure.satisfy.  The old man stepped forward to negotiate, and then the whole family looked at Zhao Ran's construction team with fear on their faces.  Zhao Ran didn't explain, and said directly to the mason: "Old Zhang, it's up to you, do it."

    Zhang Bricklayer responded "yes" and began to direct his group of strong laborers to start work.  Excavation, filling, and mud mixing. After more than an hour, Zhao's construction team filled up the broken walls of this family, replaced all the broken tiles on the roof, and restored the work.  Start to tie up the crumbling fences and walls again.

    This move left Old Man Li and the family dumbfounded. When they realized what they were doing and wanted to come forward to thank them, Zhao Ran had already waved his hand and said, "Stop it!" Zhao Ran didn't have time to chat with them, so he had to hurry up when doing good deeds.  Time.

    A trace of merit power was cultivated in the sea of ??qi. Zhao Ran was very satisfied and urged Old Man Li to go to the next house.

    After working for seven consecutive days, Zhao's construction team finally repaired thirty-six dilapidated houses in Lijia Village. Zhao Ran had thirty-six more merit powers in his body, all of which were transformed into magic power by him.  The approximate settlement cost, labor, materials and food money added together, totaled a total of four taels of silver.

    In the meantime, the rescue operations at the Yangmayi Relief Station were also continuing, bringing Zhao Ran a bonus of twenty-three merit points, which were all converted by Zhao Ran.

    Now Zhao Ran can feel the gradual growth of magic power in the Qi Sea, and the sparks on his fingertips can last for half a cup of tea.

    Everyone in Lijia Village was inexplicably surprised. This feeling of smashing pie in the sky was indeed not bad. Guan Er and Lu Jin, who had been helping Zhao Ran, were also puzzled, but they were soon relieved¡ª¡ª  Fangzhu Zhao seems to be becoming more and more compassionate.

    So Guan Er came forward and asked Zhao Fangzhu if he planned to renovate all the dilapidated houses in the surrounding villages. Zhao Ran replied that this was really not the case. Pindao planned to renovate the dilapidated houses in all the villages in the entire county!

    Guan Er and Lu Jin flattered each other, and then cautiously said that it was admirable that Fangzhu Zhao was so ambitious.  In this case, wouldn't it be much faster to recruit more strong laborers and start working at the same time?

    Zhao Ran slapped his forehead and secretly thought that he was really confused, so he decisively adopted a good strategy.

    Zhao Ran¡¯s job is to be the head of the Fangtang. He is mainly responsible for patrolling the county. One of the most important tasks is to assist in investigating the traces of demons.  After the Changchong Mountain Oolong Incident, Zhao Ran got the advice from his uncles Dazhuo and Xiaozhuo, and he already knew several places where demons were rumored to be in the county. Most of them were listed in the Taoist records, which meant that they were all "good demons".  ¡±, so he temporarily stopped thinking about catching monsters.  Since there was nothing to do now, he simply sent out all ten inspection teams from Fangtang. Each team of two people was responsible for recruiting a construction team. Each construction team demarcated the village and was responsible for each of them.

    The vigorous "New Rural Movement" in Guyang County has officially begun.

    Zhao Ran rode an old donkey around to inspect and inspect the construction results. At the same time, the power of merit in the sea of ????qi began to increase ten times as fast as before.  On the 23rd of the New Year, Zhao Ran offered a double salary. That is to say, as long as they are willing to continue working, they can get 20 cash every day, and the master masons can get 40 cash, and there is also extra food.  Meat.  Almost all the laborers could not resist this temptation and worked until the evening of the 29th day of the Lunar New Year before they finally stopped working, and they made an appointment to continue working after the 15th day of the first lunar month.

    In the past ten days, the merit power in Zhao Ran's Qi Sea has grown in a straight line, and the transformed mana can already be clearly felt, burrowing around like a mouse, which is very pleasing.  And the flames on Zhao Ran's fingertips had reached more than three inches high, dazzling the eyes!
