Ma Jinyu felt that Tao Tie was very dazzling at this moment.
It was so piercing that he didn't want to look at it any longer. He waved his hand angrily and turned away.
Although it was not said directly, the attitude was made clear.
The matter of Lin Yuhui being burned to death by heavenly thunder and true fire will not be investigated.
It is imperative to practice the exercises at least once a day.
Therefore, you, a gentleman with a pure and firm heart at such a young age, should not hang around in front of this villain who has been through a lot in the hustle and bustle of the world and is covered in dirt.
Rage burned in Ma Jinyu's heart.
The air and space in the tent evaporated and distorted visibly.
Do you understand what it means to feel ashamed of yourself?
What does it mean to get angry out of shame?
Tao Tie bowed calmly, finding no fault at all, then left the camp and returned to the main peak of the Central Mountain Range.
Eight people and one ghost follower were waiting outside the main hall of the Superior Missionary Institute.
Chu Yingying was still wearing the same clothes she had worn when she came down the mountain, but she dried the rain water from her body and cleansed herself with magic.
"Tomorrow, you will be assigned as before, each responsible for the teaching work of a lower-level missionary school. Remember, no matter what happens, preaching is the main thing. If anyone or anything gets in the way, I will come forward to deal with it."
After saying this, Tao Tie passed by the eight people and one ghost and walked towards the main hall.
Before entering the door, Tao Tie's voice reached Chu Yingying's ears: "The Yangguan Road or the Single-plank Bridge, it's your choice. Once you take the wrong path, it's hard to turn back."
Then, he said no more and walked in.
The main hall door slowly closed.
The next day.
At the break of dawn.
The eight people and the ghost bowed to Tao Tie and said goodbye, then went their separate ways.
Tao Tie also went down the mountain.
There are construction sites everywhere on Fuli Island, and everything is busy.
Going east, we arrived at a construction site closest to the main peak. Tao Tie showed his identity, had the construction site stopped, and personally taught the new and improved version of "Five Animal Exercises".
Quarter of an hour later, he left behind a clay figure and headed to the next construction site.
从日出(05:00-07:00,卯时)到黄昏(19:00-21:00,戌时),中间有七个时辰,五十六刻钟。
In order to minimize delays, Tao Tie visited fifty-four construction sites, taught the Five Animal Exercises fifty-four times, and left behind fifty-four clay figurines that had been made the previous night.
"Why bother?"
Dong Shou, Wei Fengge, Yuan Luyao and other geniuses who escorted the first batch of offshore islanders to Fuli Island met with Tao Tie before they went off to perform the mission of escorting the grain ship.
At that time, Dong Shou asked these two words.
Other geniuses who also knew what had happened on Fuli Island in the past half month had the same doubt.
Three months have passed in such a chaotic and ever-changing situation, and we are so close to the front line. Instead of working hard to preach, it is better to do something else to gain points from the side.
You can still get a good evaluation in the practical stage.
Just like they are now.
Tao Tie smiled without saying anything and just waved goodbye.
After dusk, Tao Tie did not continue but returned to the main peak of the Central Mountain Range, where he spent the entire night making clay figures.
The second day, the third day, the fourth day...
It took Tao Tiefang seven whole days to visit all the construction sites on Fuli Island, teach the "Five Animal Exercises" once, and leave behind a clay figurine.
Seven days passed and Fuli Island changed dramatically.
Construction on some sites was completed quickly, while on others it is still under construction.
The second and third batches of offshore islanders who moved inland arrived one after another and were all resettled.
However, the Pinghaiwei army, which was scheduled to retreat to the Fuli Island line, did not return as scheduled and continued to fight in the open sea.
It is easy to start a war but difficult to end it.
Miao Zongren's decision was undoubtedly correct, and Pinghaiwei's strength was undoubtedly strong.
The magic practitioners in overseas demon sects are undoubtedly crazy and reckless.
Under the remote control command of the Holy Son of the Wu Shi Demon Sect, when the first batch of offshore islanders began to migrate inland, the many overseas demon sects that had already implemented the shark swarm tactics became more and more crazy and fought against Ping Haiwei more regardless of casualties.
It took a huge amount of effort to make Pinghaiwei retreat one nautical mile.
The intensity of the war suddenly reached its highest point.
Fortunately, when Miao Zongren formulated the withdrawal plan, he kept a plan in mind and allowed Ma Jinyu to establish a logistics base branch on Fuli Island.
This move greatly reduced the logistical supply pressure in Pinghaiwei.
However, it also made the situation of more than a dozen islands in the waters around Fuli Island even more chaotic.
All the offshore islanders who moved inland were settled on these dozen islands and were not divided further.
Millions of people are divided among a dozen islands of varying sizes, although the islands have sufficient land area and output to accommodate them.
But if there are too many outsiders, public security will be affected.
What's more, there are remnants of the Demon Sect and spies mixed in with the islanders who have migrated inland.
There are so many remnants and spies on Fuli Island alone, and naturally there are even more among the common people rescued from the overseas demon sects by Pinghaiwei in the past half month.
After all, when Tao Tie came to Fuli Island, Qingzhou Prefecture Government and Pinghai Guard had already done a rough screening.
It would not be a good thing for these remnants and spies, whether they were discovered by the Celestial Empire or took the initiative to jump out and cause trouble.
It takes up time and distracts your attention.
In order to maintain stability, Ma Jinyu had to allocate a part of the reserve troops he had accumulated and have them serve as garrisons on the islands.
Although only 20,000 ordinary elites were allocated, it was also a kind of weakening.
With all these situations and burdens piled up, the pressure Pinghaiwei faced suddenly increased.
Miao Zongren had to make further adjustments.
On the one hand, they switched from offense to defense, gained a firm foothold, seized the opportunity, and launched a defensive counterattack;
On the one hand, the more than 600 islands in the rear were divided into three parts: one is the Bohai Sea Group, one is the East China Sea Group, and one is the Outer Sea Group.
The Bohai Islands were designated as the rear area, and the headquarters of the Pinghaiwei Logistics Base was moved here from Qingzhou.
The East China Sea islands that the Celestial Empire had operated for more than 20 years were the inner rear base, and the Pinghaiwei Logistics Base branch was moved back here from the Fuli Island line;
The outer islands serve as the rear area, and the original Pinghaiwei Logistics Base branch was abandoned and converted into a transit station.
After this adjustment, Ma Jinyu, who was fed up with Tao Tie, quickly left.
What was left behind was Fuli Island, where the population had skyrocketed to more than million, with all kinds of buildings available and a strong garrison, but the internal security was somewhat disturbed.
At the same time, Miao Zongren hardened his heart and fought fierce battles in the open sea for four consecutive days. He finally got rid of the bites of the increasingly large group of sharks and successfully retreated to the waters around Fuli Island.
The Pinghaiwei Navy, Army and Aerospace Force rested for three days in the many camps built by Ma Jinyu, and then set off again, returning to Qingzhou for a deeper rest.
During this period, no matter how the situation changed or how people's hearts fluctuated, Tao Tie only focused on one thing:
To teach literacy, preaching and legal education.
A total of three thousand clay figurines have been refined.
The task of teaching literacy was assigned to the clay people.
The eight men and one ghost follower and some elite clay figures taught the basic knowledge of Confucianism, martial arts and Taoism in four lower-level missionary academies.
Tao Tie himself taught the "Five Animal Exercises" over and over again in various places on Fuli Island until both the original islanders and the immigrants knew how to do it. Then he began to talk about the knowledge and tips of the three parts: the 100-day foundation-building of using martial arts to enter the Tao, the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements, and the collection of herbs and refining qi.
The teachings were explained in simple terms, over and over again. The islanders who were intelligent or gifted would understand after listening to them once, twice, three or five times, and would be taken directly to the four lower missionary houses to receive a more advanced and complete spiritual education.
For the remaining more than three million people, Tao Tie didn't care whether they were stubborn stones or stubborn iron. He swung the sledgehammer called "persistence in one's heart" and hit them down again and again.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it at first. Just listen to it a few more times and practice it a few more times.
Regardless of whether you can achieve something or gain something, at least you have made efforts and persisted. When you really achieve nothing and gain nothing, you will not regret it.
During this period, more and more geniuses were affected by the changing situation and did not continue to preach. Instead, they changed their way of performance in the middle of the process to win good evaluations.
The Tianjiao team escorting the grain ships was growing larger and larger, and was also broken up and divided.
One day, Dong Shou, Wei Fengge and Yang Tianci got together and talked about what Tao Tie had done.
Wei Fengge said: "I am not as good as him."
Yang Tianci said: "I am far inferior to him."
Dong Shou sighed: "What a fool!"
Then the three of them led their respective die-hard supporters, resigned from their temporary assignments at Pinghaiwei, gave up the islands and missions assigned to them, and joined Tao Tie's team.
Even when Pinghaiwei returned to Qingzhou, he ignored the invitation to withdraw personally issued by Miao Zongren.
Miao Zongren was helpless. Thinking that Pinghaiwei would only rest for ten days at most and then go out to sea again, he ignored the thirteen geniuses who stayed on Fuli Island.
Although Pinghaiwei did not suffer any serious damage by going out to sea to fight earlier and returning to the mainland later, some sacrifices were inevitable.
After a month of fierce fighting, nearly 200,000 overseas demon sects and cultivators were annihilated, but the price Pinghaiwei paid was a loss of 3,613 men.
The battle loss ratio is nearly 1:70, which seems very exaggerated, but in fact China is at a great loss.
For overseas demon sects, their disciples are consumables.
For the Dayong Dynasty, all the soldiers of the guards are treasures.
"So, using all this garbage in exchange for Pinghaiwei not being able to go out to sea for at least seven days is worth it."
In the Beginningless Sea, there is an island reef a few meters square somewhere.
The Holy Son of the Wu Shi Demon Sect, a young man in white with a red lotus mark on his forehead, was fishing while proudly saying to the empty sea:
“For my Wushi Demon Sect, it is extremely simple to give birth to 200,000 demon cultivators.
Anyway, the sea is so vast and there are so many islands. Those people have lived one after another, so there are as many as they want.
The Dayong Pseudo-Dynasty is different. Although it has 49 guards, each of which is capable of standing on its own, it needs troops in many places.
There are nine provinces inside and eighteen provinces outside. It’s not too much to station a guard in each province, right?
Now we went to the Twenty-Seventh Guard.
It makes sense to station twelve guards in the capital to protect the capital and the emperor and to suppress the world, right?
The remaining ten miles,
The Ten Thousand Monster Deserts in the northwest and north must be guarded by three guards all year round;
In the northeastern Ice Demon Realm, one guard must be on guard;
The Wutian Demon Sect and Wudi Demon Sect in the southeast are not vegetarians and occupy two guards;
There are millions of mountains in the southwest, but they still require three guards!
In the east, we, the Wu Shi Demon Sect, got an advantage and only have to deal with one Ping Hai Wei.
It's a pity that the Wuzhong Demon Sect was doing something stupid thirty years ago. Why not do something like that? He tried to mess with the prince, but in the process he got himself killed.
If the Wuzhong Demon Sect was still there, even if he was a cripple, this battle would be easier to fight.
I wouldn't have to fight so hard.
Don't you think so, old bastard?
The sea area in front of the young man was indeed empty, but there was a dead turtle with its four legs facing the sky.
This guy likes to fish for giant lobster when he has nothing to do.
Then he kept on talking to the dead turtle.
The last time he was interrupted by Dao Xiaofeng who suddenly arrived, he was really annoyed by having kept something to say in his stomach for so long.
Now that the war has just ended and I have some time to rest, I come here to fish for turtles and chat.
The white-haired old man standing behind the young man bent over and reminded him carefully: "But to give birth to a demon cultivator, you need the favor of the demons from outside the domain."
The young man raised his head, looked at the sky, curled his lips and said with disdain: "Favor? You call turning people into puppets, monsters, and devil's descendants favor? Bah! Fuck favor!"
The old man bent his waist even lower, with cold sweat on his forehead: "Son, be careful with your words! Be careful with your words!"
The young man waved his hands, becoming more frivolous: "Be careful with your words, what the hell! Let me ask you, why is the Wu Shi Demon Sect able to stand out among the many demon sects?"
The old man straightened his back slowly, feeling extremely proud and honored. "Of course it's because the founder of my Wushi Demon Sect fought in the outer world Wushi Tianyuan and killed the demon king who originally ruled Wushi Tianyuan! We in Wushi Demon Sect worship our own ancestor, not some damn outer world demon!"
"That's it."
The young man leaned back to make himself more comfortable, and said casually, "As long as the ancestor supports me, those extraterritorial demons dare not fart. They must give birth to as many demon cultivators as I ask them to!"
"But……"
The old man bent his back again and warned carefully, "But the Grandmaster sent a message saying that the disheveled, barefoot, unkempt killer has already made a move and may be going to find the Grandmaster. The Grandmaster ordered us to speed up and not delay any longer."
"what?"
The young man suddenly stood up, greatly shocked, and then pointed at the old man angrily and scolded, "Such important news, why didn't you tell me earlier? Huh? Do you want to make our founder follow the footsteps of the Eternal Demon King? Do you want to make our Wushi Demon Sect follow the old path of the Wuzhong Demon Sect? Tell me! What are your intentions?"
Bang.
The old man knelt on the ground, tremblingly pointing at the letter that the young man had torn up earlier at his feet: "Holy Son, please allow me to report. I have received the news from the sect and am presenting it to you."
The young man lowered his head and saw the letter. He felt quite embarrassed and smiled awkwardly.
Then, with a blank expression on his face, he waved his hand and said, "I forgive you this time. Don't make such a low-level mistake next time! You must read such important news three times in my ear, understand?"
"Yes!"
The old man knocked his head heavily on the reef, and said with great fear, "Thank you, Holy Son, for your forgiveness and grace."
The young man was too lazy to pay attention to the old man. He turned around and looked at the dead turtle lying on its back. He became bored and sighed, "It's not fun. I don't want to play anymore!"
Then he pointed his left index finger to the sky and his right index finger to the sea, and the red lotus mark between his eyebrows glowed with blood.
As soon as this light appeared, it spread throughout the entire Beginningless Sea.
Wisps of black gas surged upward from the bottom of the sea, and bubbles gurgled on the sea surface.
The sea areas where fierce fighting has taken place over the past month have been particularly noisy.
Nearly 200,000 demon cultivators died. Was it in vain?
Soon, the young man stopped, his face turned pale and bloodless, he sat down on the chair, breathing heavily.
After taking a deep breath, he looked around proudly and said, "Those guys in Baiwan Dashan spent so much effort to build a barrier to the south of the sky. They were so defeated. Look at what I did. How amazing it is."
As the young man boasted, a huge change occurred that was beyond everyone's expectations.
When the Pinghaiwei army arrived at the East China Sea islands.
The entire Wushi Sea, including the newly occupied offshore islands of the Celestial Empire, is entirely shrouded in an invisible but real boundary wall.
This boundary wall is modeled after the crystal wall between the outside and inside of the domain.
Completely isolate the Wu Shi Sea from the territory of Dayong Dynasty.
If the Dayong Dynasty wants to enter the Beginningless Sea again, it must either break through this boundary wall or, like the extraterritorial demons, first travel through the void and then enter it.
Before the boundary wall was broken, the Beginningless Sea formed a realm in itself.
In other words, the Chinese people on the outer islands have been isolated and helpless, as if they were trapped in a desolate area.
Things in this world are so unpredictable. (End of this chapter)
