Chapter 499: The City in the Palm of Your Hand (1)
Song Zheng randomly grabbed a desolate beast from the extremity realms connected by the extremity realm creature cards and threw it outside the Devouring Land. The desolate beast was not affected.
He gave another light kick, with excellent control, and kicked half of the wild beast's body over the limit.
In an instant, the wild beast screamed, and the half of its body in the devouring land seemed to be neatly cut off by a sharp blade, fell into the devouring power, and instantly merged into the earth and disappeared!
The other half shook and fell outside the Devouring Land. The blood slowly flowed. Just after it passed the limit, it was instantly sucked away by the Devouring Power.
However, such "bits and pieces" could not satisfy the monster's appetite. Waves of angry surges came from under the earth, and the ground in the entire Devouring Land rolled like the sea.
Song Zheng removed the body of the desolate beast, and the blood no longer flowed into it. The monster made a fuss over a cup of tea, and finally slowly fell silent, and calm returned to the Devouring Land.
He stood outside the Devouring Land, touched his chin, and had some guesses in his mind.
What is it? Chaos or Taotie? Or some other ancient existence?
…
About twenty days later, more than 40,000 dirty people from Todi town rushed to Idapos City.
Along the way, the three Purifying Priests passed on part of the inheritance according to Song Zheng's previous instructions. The believers in Todi Town traveled during the day and practiced at night. Almost everyone felt their improvement on the first night.
And as the practice continues to deepen, the speed of this improvement becomes faster and faster.
Therefore, almost all the dirty people persisted in the twenty-day journey.
After Priest An He came back, he immediately brought someone to see Song Zheng: "Sir, there is a believer who I think you need to meet."
"According to your instructions, we only gave you the first level of inherited skills on the road. The rest will be given in batches gradually after returning to Idapos City, after inspecting and screening everyone."
"But there is a young man who, relying only on the first-level inherited skills, successfully purified himself on the eighteenth day and became a pure person!"
Song Zheng was also surprised: "Let him come in."
The young man was quickly brought in. He looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old. He was a little scared when he saw Song Zheng. He knelt on the ground. He wanted to greet Song Zheng according to what Priest An He taught him before, but he said "Your Excellency, Your Excellency" several times.
, I forgot all the words that followed.
Song Zheng waved his hand: "Don't be nervous."
Under Yang Shen's eyes, Song Zheng examined this young man.
He is not tall, and he should continue to grow taller as he matures after purification. Moreover, his qualifications are considered a little genius even in the Hongwu world. No wonder he can purify himself with only the first level of skills.
In fact, from Song Zheng's point of view, self-purification is really not a difficult matter. It's just that the inheritance of this world is very inappropriate.
The inheritance left by those gods is not bad, but most of them are not suitable for this destroyed world.
It was also because of this young man as a role model that the people in Todi Town were so motivated that they rushed to Idapos City in only twenty days.
Song Zheng looked at the young man, thought for a moment and said, "Take him here and take good care of him. There is no need to arrange other errands for him. Just concentrate on his cultivation."
"yes."
…
Because of the addition of more than 40,000 people, the population of Idapos has exceeded 50,000. With a large population, the city's construction speed has greatly accelerated, and a small city will appear on the wasteland.
In the next few days, sporadic figures continued to appear outside the city. They fearfully poked their heads towards the city.
Priest Anhe came to Song Zheng and asked for his instructions: "Sir, there are many dirty people wandering in the wasteland. We are about to build a city, and these people want to come over. Please decide whether we accept them?"
He was worried that the adults would not understand the inside story, so he added: "The origins of these people are very complicated. Some are lonely and helpless, and are not tolerated by the ethnic group, so they can only escape alone. But there are also some who have abandoned their beliefs, or
Either they escaped during a hunting battle, or they committed various crimes in their original villages and towns, and were expelled...
It cannot be said that all the dirty people wandering in the wasteland are bad people, but most of them are bad people."
Priest An and He knew very well that Song Zheng was working hard to expand the population, otherwise he would not have come to inquire at all, and would have just driven away all these wandering dirty people.
Song Zheng said: "You should screen them first and drive away those with ulterior motives. Those who commit heinous crimes will be executed on the spot. Let me take another look at the screened ones. Then, they can become the new citizens of Idapos City."
"yes."
Song Zheng thought about the power of merit again and gave one more warning: "The whole process does not need to be too harsh."
"Yes, I'll understand later."
Seven or eight days later, Priest Anhe came again: "Sir, we have screened 1,400 people..." Song Zheng was surprised: "So many?"
Priest An and He obviously didn't have a good impression of the homeless and dirty people, and said with a wry smile: "Although they are all wandering in the wasteland, as long as they work harder, they can always dig a lot of giant beans, and the homeless and dirty people can also give birth to several in a litter, and it doesn't take long.
It can gather dozens of people.
These are all those who have minor crimes after we screened them, and those who have committed capital crimes have been executed by us."
Song Zhengneng nodded: "Gather them together and I'll go take a look."
Priest Marti had already gathered more than 1,400 people under a section of the city wall. Song Zheng climbed up the city wall and looked down, seeing every detail.
As Priest Anhe said, the vast majority of them are burdened with various sins, such as petty theft, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, escaping from battle, refusing to save people in the face of death, etc.
These can all be "saved". Song Zheng doesn't know if saving sinners can gain the power of merit. This is just an attempt on his part. In fact, he doesn't have high expectations in his heart. He always feels that the power of merit will not be so easy.
get.
He casually moved down a little, and three people were lifted up into the air by an invisible force and climbed onto the city wall. Song Zheng said lightly: "Take it down." Behind Priest An He, a group of divine warriors swarmed up and suppressed them. Unexpectedly, this
The cultivation of the three of them turned out to be quite strong. Two divine warriors stepped forward, but were hit hard in the back and fell immediately.
The three dirty men took the opportunity to turn over and jump under the city wall.
The more than a thousand dirty people under the city wall were originally very surprised. Why were they suddenly arrested?
With the strength of a divine warrior, he will never become a wandering dirty man.
Priest Marty was furious, stepped onto the low butt of the city wall, and punched in the air.
With a snap, the three people had jumped off the city wall. In the process of falling, they seemed to be hit by a huge invisible war hammer at the same time. Their bodies immediately flattened, and the blood spattered and turned into three meat patties.
Bang bang bang!
The three corpses fell to the ground and fell apart. Song Zheng watched with cold eyes and did not stop him. He also really needed to establish his authority and scare the wandering dirty people below. For these people who survive in the wilderness, it must not be just kindness, but more importantly
It is to establish authority first.
The homeless and dirty people were silent. I don't know who took the lead. Their legs went weak and they knelt down first. Then there was a crash, and all the homeless and dirty people knelt down.
Song Zheng spoke slowly, with a special magical power in his voice that was imprinted on the souls of every homeless person: "You will be saved in Idapos City.
But each of you must be kind-hearted, even the gods cannot save a lamb that has fallen by itself!"
"I'll understand." The homeless and dirty people agreed haphazardly, without any organization, but everyone spoke. Song Zheng nodded and said to Priest Marty: "First arrange for them to build the city wall. The food will be better than what they have in the wild.
Okay, but below our own people, the best one hundred people can be taught the first-level skills first and be promoted to citizens of Idapos City."
"As commanded."
Song Zheng returned to his earthen house, and Priest Asha followed him in and asked: "Sir, is this the matter with those three guys?"
Song Zheng smiled slightly: "Of course we can't just let it go."
Priest Asha's shining eyes were filled with an emotion called "warlike". She knelt down on one knee and begged for help: "Please give me your order, I am willing to fight for you."
Song Zheng thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine."
…
Goodes dug a hole on a high slope and piled three mounds of soil above the hole to mark his location so that the contact person would not be able to find his location.
He kept looking at the position of the gray moon in the sky, counting the time in his mind, and then complained: "Why isn't it here yet?"
The howling wind at night in the wilderness was very cold. He huddled in the cave and wrapped his clothes tightly, but he still felt waves of cold.
But when he thought that after completing this mission, he would be able to escape his status as a dirty person, receive instructions on how to purify himself, and get a residence in the city, his heart was filled with excitement.
However, his dirty wives did not receive such treatment, and his merits were not enough to be kind to their wives. Now when he thought of those dirty wives, he felt sick to his stomach.
"Let them fend for themselves outside the city. When I become a pure man and live in the city, I will find a way to marry another pure lady."
Suddenly, he sensed something, stretched out his head from the hole, and saw two figures walking slowly under the hazy moonlight.
Goodes frowned. Isn't there only one person? Why are there two? The other one looks like a woman?
But he soon noticed something. Both of them were very tall, much taller than ordinary dirty people. He suddenly became vigilant and suddenly jumped out of the hole, holding a bone blade in his hand: "Who is this person?"
?”
Priest Asha pointed his hand at his bone blade, and then gently waved it to the side. The bone blade in Gudes' hand flew out uncontrollably.
Chapter completed!
