Chapter 840: I Love Puluo Province

"You're also worried about the Knife-Labor Ghost and the Great Totem!" Li Li Banfeng took a sip of noodle soup. "I suspect the Knife-Labor Ghost has already been controlled by the Great Totem.

Lan Qiao Yi led the Totem Army into the Villain's Post, and the Knife-Labor Ghost didn't make any reaction.

The Knife-Labor Ghost has a very strong sense of territory. I really didn't expect it could be transformed like this."

Cui Cui Tike shook his head: "That's not transformation. Lan Qiao Yi should have found the Curse Words of the Xia Dynasty."

"Xia Dynasty?" Li Li Banfeng had only seen this term in history books.

Cui Cui Tike had studied it very deeply: "Theoretically speaking, the Xia Dynasty was the predecessor of the Shang Dynasty, but in reality, the two coexisted for a very long time.

The technological level of the Xia Dynasty wasn't low, but it couldn't withstand the impact of the Shang Dynasty and ultimately perished.

They left themselves one last glimmer of hope, which is the Knife-Labor Ghost on Knife-Dao Guiling.

The Knife-Labor Ghost are the remnants of the Xia Dynasty. In order to maintain strong survival capabilities, they carry powerful curses on their bodies.

Their appearance has changed, and their behavior has become more primitive, but they have retained a unique language, the main form of expression being their dancing and their roaring while dancing."

Li Li Banfeng thought for a moment: "You mean, Lan Qiao Yi has already cracked the language of the Knife-Labor Ghost?"

"I can only say he cracked a part of it. There is still a considerable part that even I cannot crack. But if Lan Qiao Yi is allowed to continue cracking it, it won't be long before he can command the Knife-Labor Ghost to fight."

Li Li Banfeng had already realized the seriousness of the problem. He picked up his hat and said:

: "It seems we have to find a suitable destination for these remnants of the previous dynasty."

"Wait a moment!" Cui Cui Tike hurriedly stopped Li Li Banfeng. "The situation hasn't reached the point of no return. Given the current war situation, you don't have the energy to deal with the Knife-Labor Ghost."

"Do you have any better ideas?" Li Li Banfeng looked at this mountain cave. "With your current special life form, can you return to the real world and continue to control Knife-Dao Guiling?"

Cui Cui Tike shook his head: "Not now. I still cannot leave the dream, but you can."

Li Li Banfeng shook his head: "I don't know how to communicate with the Knife-Labor Ghost at all. I occasionally like to dance with them, but that's mainly because the atmosphere is right."

"You know another way of communicating, a relatively abstract way of communicating." Cui Cui Tike pulled open the curtain hanging at the entrance of the mountain cave. Outside was the temple on Sage Peak, and the Knife-Labor Ghost were preparing for a sacrifice.

This was Cui Cui Tike's dream. Although the life form was a bit special, Cui Cui Tike clearly remembered every link in the sacrifice.

"This is more direct than dancing. This is the pious and persistent faith of the Xia Dynasty remnants," Cui Cui Tike looked at Li Li Banfeng. "I know you treat this faith as a source of combat power, but don't ignore the power of the Knife-Labor Ghost themselves.

You are their Knife-Labor War God. You can command them to fight, let them know who their enemy is. This is fairer to you and to them."

Li Li Banfeng agreed with Cui Cui Tike's idea, but there were two realistic problems in front of him.

"I can continue to impersonate the Knife-Labor War God, but I still cannot communicate with the Knife-Labor Ghost."

Cui Cui Tike corrected Li Li Banfeng's statement: "You only gained the recognition of the Knife-Labor Ghost after defeating the previous Knife-Labor War God, Wan Wan Jinxian. The title of Knife-Labor War God was obtained by you through battle; this is not impersonation.

As for the problem of communicating with the Knife-Labor Ghost, if it's just simple fighting and encouragement, I can teach you these things."

Li Li Banfeng said: "There is another key problem. The Knife-Labor Ghost cannot leave Knife-Dao Guiling too far. I cannot take them to fight in other places like you."

Cui Cui Tike nodded: "This is a key problem. The Knife-Labor Ghost can leave Knife-Dao Guiling, but it depends on the quantity and time.

If they leave for a relatively short time, under the current level of evolution, the sturdy Knife-Labor Ghost can support themselves for three days. These three days do not require any additional supplies. The only thing to note is not to give the Knife-Labor Ghost any drinking water, otherwise they will show signs of losing control."

Li Li Banfeng roughly calculated the time and asked Cui Cui Tike: "What is the concept of a sturdy Knife-Labor Ghost?"

Cui Cui Tike thought for a moment: "You can measure it by combat power. Through our joint efforts, the combat power of the Knife-Labor Ghost has appeared to have a significant improvement.

The combat power of an ordinary Knife-Labor Ghost is roughly equivalent to a cultivator at the fifth layer of the Earth Skin, and the combat power of a sturdy Knife-Labor Ghost can reach the sixth layer of the Earth Skin, or even the seventh layer. The combat power of a weak Knife-Labor Ghost might not reach a cultivator at the third layer of the Earth Skin. I'm talking about absolute combat power, not comprehensive combat power."

Li Li Banfeng thought for a moment but didn't quite understand Cui Cui Tike's meaning: "What is the difference between the two?"

"The difference is very large. Comprehensive combat power and absolute combat power sometimes show an inverse trend!"

The scenery outside the mountain cave changed. Two Knife-Labor Ghost had a fight over a mate.

From the appearance, one could clearly see the difference between sturdy and weak. The sturdy Knife-Labor Ghost completely crushed his opponent in physique, and in less than five minutes, he beat the weak Knife-Labor Ghost into serious injury.

Cui Cui Tike explained: "If you compare them purely by absolute combat power, three weak Knife-Labor Ghost might not be the opponent of one sturdy Knife-Labor Ghost.

But the problem is that the sturdy Knife-Labor Ghost is very good at fighting other Knife-Labor Ghost, but when facing enemies of other species, his comprehensive combat power is very poor because there are not enough disease foci on his body."

Li Li Banfeng understood Cui Cui Tike's meaning: "The strong Knife-Labor Ghost is not easily infected, and in external warfare, he is not as good at spreading diseases as the weak Knife-Labor Ghost."

Cui Cui Tike shook his head: "You cannot judge it so simply. You also saw that this weak Knife-Labor Ghost's own combat power is very limited. If you let him go to spread diseases, he might be killed before getting close to the enemy. Therefore, his comprehensive combat power cannot be considered too high either.

Moreover, a Knife-Labor Ghost weak to this extent can at most leave Knife-Dao Guiling for one day, and his flexibility in combat is also much worse. Therefore, in personnel selection, you must make a comprehensive consideration. I have made several mathematical models, which you can take back for reference."

Looking at the dense formulas, Li Li Banfeng's head throbbed.

"Don't feel troubled, my friend. You still have shortcuts to take," Cui Cui Tike took out another stack of manuscripts. "If you want to take the Knife-Labor Ghost to fight abroad for a long time, the best choice is to have a combination of Knife-Labor Ghost with different physical conditions, with the sturdy Knife-Labor Ghost responsible for fighting and the weak Knife-Labor Ghost responsible for spreading diseases.

The specific personnel ratio, I have calculated, but in the process of actual combat, you must make appropriate adjustments according to the changes in the war situation.

You must remember that letting the Knife-Labor Ghost leave Knife-Dao Guiling to fight for a long time requires preparing sufficient water sources. This is not ordinary water; the water source must come from Knife-Dao Guiling. This point is very important. Knife-Labor Ghost with different physical conditions have different consumption amounts of water, and I have also made detailed explanations in the attached table—"

Li Li Banfeng gritted his teeth and took the manuscript. Cui Cui Tike asked a serious question: "Which journal do you think is more suitable for publishing our results?"

Li Li Banfeng didn't speak; he just watched Cui Cui Tike silently.

Cui Cui Tike waved his hand and laughed: "Just a joke. Before you complete the experiment, I won't easily publish our work. Now let's learn to dance; it's not complicated at all."

Li Li Banfeng's dance foundation was good. Back then, to deal with Du Du Wenming, he had seriously learned to dance.

In over an hour, Li Li Banfeng mastered a large number of Knife-Labor Ghost dance moves.

Cui Cui Tike wiped his sweat and changed the scene outside the mountain cave again.

Outside the mountain cave, it became a desolate New Land. Above the New Land, halos were connected, which was a sign that the land reclamation was about to be completed.

"This is a scene I discovered in Lan Qiao Yi's dream. In this scene, I saw a friend of yours, a friend surnamed He."

Li Li Banfeng nodded: "He has been reclaiming land in the New Land. This should be his territory."

Cui Cui Tike said: "I don't want to alienate the friendship between you, but I want to remind you that your friend has appeared in Lan Qiao Yi's dream more than once, especially recently, with a high frequency."

Li Li Banfeng thought about it carefully.

He He Yuxiu had just left. She should know the recent situation of He He Jiaqing, right?

"Can you enter He He Jiaqing's dream?"

Cui Cui Tike shook his head: "I cannot actively enter other people's dreams. I can only follow the owner of the Dream-Pulling Building to scout for some news.

He He Jiaqing is not in the Inner Province, and his cultivation is very high, and his vigilance is very strong. Entering his dream is a very dangerous thing. The owner of the Dream-Pulling Building will not easily take risks, and even if he goes, he won't bring me along.

I just want you to be more prepared. War is cruel. I have experienced war, and I know what choices people will make at the critical moment of life and death."

Li Li Banfeng looked at Cui Cui Tike: "If you face a choice of life and death, would you bow to the Inner Province?"

"If I were so easy to bow, my life state wouldn't have become like this."

Cui Cui Tike pulled open his lapel, and the five big characters were still on his chest: "I love Puluo Province!"

"My friend, I am also fighting for Puluo Province, fighting in my own way.

My dream will not change, but before the dream is completely realized, Puluo Province will be my last goal."

Li Li Banfeng nodded slightly. The two looked at each other for a moment, both took off their hats, and bowed to each other.

Waking up from the dream, Li Li Banfeng realized a serious problem: he remembered the dance Cui Cui Tike taught him, but the manuscript he gave him wasn't that easy to remember.

Li Li Banfeng explained the reason: "Brother Zhao, can you take me into Cui Cui Tike's dream one more time?"

Zhao Zhao Lanmeng was embarrassed: "This is very difficult. To enter his dream, I must dodge Dream Xiao Qian's line of sight and sneak into the Dream-Pulling Building.

Dream Xiao Qian is a cautious person. In such a short time, if I enter and leave the Dream-Pulling Building twice, it's impossible for Dream Xiao Qian not to discover it.

Don't worry about this matter. I can help you reproduce a part of the previous dream. You can memorize the formulas you didn't write down again."

Li Li Banfeng looked at Zhao Zhao Lanmeng: "So, I have to memorize formulas in a dream now?"

Zhao Zhao Lanmeng was a Lazy Cultivator; he could understand Li Li Banfeng's current predicament: "I can't think of a better way either."

He He Yuxiu took her family, sat on the Sea-Eating Old Train, and arrived at He He Jiaqing's thirteen pieces of New Land.

Twenty miles away from the boundary, the coachman stopped the carriage: "Miss He, I'll send you here. Walk the remaining road yourself."

The remaining road wasn't far, but the coachman didn't care about these few steps, and many people in his heart were quite dissatisfied.

He He Yuxiu didn't feel dissatisfied. Leaving Three-Headed Fork at the critical moment, this matter originally couldn't be justified. Li Qi not blaming her was already giving her enough face, and being able to arrange for the coachman to send her was an even rarer sentiment.

After everyone got off the carriage, He He Yuxiu took a box of silver dollars to the coachman as a reward.

The coachman originally didn't want to speak, but looking at the silver dollars, he couldn't help but speak: "Miss He, for some people, be more guarded. For some things, be careful. Some fires, you have to swallow them yourself!"

After speaking, the coachman drove the carriage away.

Having been together for so long, He He Yuxiu also knew Che Che Wushang's reputation somewhat. This person was usually cautious, so he probably just reminded her to be more careful and shouldn't have had any other meaning.

She led the crowd toward the New Land, feeling more and more strange as she walked.

He He Jiaqing had always said he had no money, but there were quite a few people reclaiming land, and it seemed like no one was idle in every territory.

They didn't meet any acquaintances along the way. After passing through two territories, they finally met Shen Shen Rongqing.

When Shen Shen Rongqing saw He He Yuxiu, she was very surprised: "Sister Xiu, why are you here?"

He He Yuxiu looked at Shen Shen Rongqing's eyes: "Little sister, why are your eyes red? What happened?"

Shen Shen Rongqing forced a smile: "Nothing big. Sister Xiu, I heard you were following Seventh Master to fight. Why did you suddenly come back?"

He He Yuxiu still felt strange: "It was Big Head who told me before, saying He Jiaqing couldn't hold on here, so I came back. You asking this question makes it seem like I'm very redundant."

"No, not redundant at all," Shen Shen Rongqing's tongue was tied. "This matter has actually passed. That group of people doesn't come to make trouble anymore, so to speak, it's over."

He He Yuxiu was angry: "What are you saying? What do you mean they don't come to make trouble? Didn't He Jiaqing fight with the Inner Province? Why does it sound like you met two ruffians?"

Shen Shen Rongqing was one of the top talented women in Puluo Province, yet she couldn't even speak clearly now.

He He Yuxiu frowned: "I won't talk to you anymore. Where is He Jiaqing? I'll go find him directly!"

Shen Shen Rongqing looked at a row of wooden houses in the distance: "He Jiaqing, he, seems to be out—"

He He Yuxiu pushed Shen Shen Rongqing aside and went straight to the wooden house.

He He Jiaqing greeted her from the house: "Aunt, why are you here?"

He He Yuxiu lit a cigarette: "Should I be here or not? You make it clear!"

He He Jiaqing smiled: "This is our He family's place. Aunt can come whenever she wants."

"He Jiaqing, that's not how you say it," a young man walked out of the wooden house. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, was fair and clean, and was a very handsome young man.

It's just that his attire was a bit special. Looking at this long robe, it looked like the official robe of the Inner Province.

He He Yuxiu asked: "Are you from the Inner Province?"

The young man didn't speak. He He Jiaqing hurriedly introduced: "This is Prince Prince Anshun, sent by the imperial court to reward our He family."

"Sent by whom? Reward whom?" He He Yuxiu couldn't believe her ears. "He Jiaqing, say that again for me to hear."

He He Jiaqing pursed his lips, looked at He He Yuxiu, and said with a smile: "Aunt, the imperial court rewarded these thirteen pieces of land to our He family."

He He Yuxiu looked at He He Jiaqing and was silent for more than a minute.

She suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed at Prince Prince Anshun's brow.

She had been fighting the Inner Province before, fighting to the death,

and now He He Jiaqing was here receiving a reward from the Inner Province!

He He Yuxiu was a Martial Cultivator at the second layer of the Cloud, and this strike was a lethal one, scaring Prince Prince Anshun into a shudder.

He He Jiaqing took a step forward and stole He He Yuxiu's knife.

It didn't matter if she didn't have a knife; He He Yuxiu used her fingers to poke at Prince Prince Anshun's eyes.

Prince Prince Anshun still couldn't dodge. He He Jiaqing used his own palm to block He He Yuxiu's fingers and protected the Prince again.

He He Jiaqing's palm was pierced directly. He He Yuxiu felt heartache looking at it.

Because she felt heartache for a moment, He He Jiaqing took out a rope, wrapped it around He He Yuxiu's wrist, and bound He He Yuxiu firmly.

He He Yuxiu lay on the ground and struggled desperately, but she couldn't break free. This was a binding cultivation magic treasure that He He Jiaqing had snatched from He Qingdong. "He He Jiaqing, you beast! You won't die well!" He He Yuxiu cursed loudly.

Other members of the He family still wanted to rush up, but a group of experts rushed out from the surrounding woods and surrounded them.

He He Yuxiu looked around. The people who came were all elders of the He family, some of the uncle generation, some of the grandfather generation, and many He He Yuxiu didn't even recognize.

The old accountant Sheng Sheng Shanzhou stepped forward and protected He He Yuxiu: "Uncles, this is all the He family's own business. We can't let outsiders see the joke."

The He family elders looked at Sheng Sheng Shanzhou expressionlessly. An uncle said: "The imperial court's business is bigger than the family's business!"

Sheng Sheng Shanzhou saw that he couldn't persuade them, turned to look at He He Jiaqing: "He Jiaqing, you have to say something. Your aunt came back today, all for you!"

He He Jiaqing also had no expression. He lowered his head and stood properly beside the Prince.

Prince Prince Anshun sighed: "The He family has been loyal for generations. How did such a group of rebels come out? For He Jiaqing's sake, I'll spare your lives. Find a place to lock them up!"

The He family elders locked He He Yuxiu and others into several wooden houses separately, sealing them tightly with various magic treasures and spiritual items around the wooden houses.

He He Yuxiu looked out the window with blood-red eyes, watching He He Jiaqing stoop and lower his head, standing beside the Prince.

He was still explaining to the Prince that He He Yuxiu's various behaviors had nothing to do with him.

Prince Prince Anshun patted He He Jiaqing on the shoulder: "He Jiaqing, you are loyal to the imperial court; I can see it, but some people can't.

I have some weight in the imperial court, but the person who can promote you isn't me.

The person who is truly in charge in the imperial court is Lord Lan Qiao. He still remembers the things you did back then. If you really want to put the previous things behind you, you must go to the battlefield!"

He He Jiaqing looked troubled, but still agreed: "This subordinate is willing to listen to His Highness's orders."

Li Li Banfeng was copying formulas while analyzing Cui Cui Tike's algorithms. After analyzing half of them, Li Li Banfeng gave up.

He felt his mathematics was still okay, and if he really couldn't calculate it, he could ask his wife to help calculate it together. If his wife couldn't calculate it, he could ask Eight-Calculations to calculate it together.

But after calculating it, would it be useful? Even Cui Cui Tike said this mathematical model could only be used as a reference.

Packing up his notes, Li Li Banfeng left Qiu Qiu Zhiheng's residence and found Seeing Chu Er.

"Chu Huaiyuan, I have something to ask of you."

Seeing Chu Er was stunned: "Seventh Brother, what kind of talk is this? What is there to ask or not ask between us? What do you want me to do? If you want me to keep Bitter Granny, I'll risk her beating me to death and go find her now."

Li Li Banfeng stopped Seeing Chu Er: "It's not for Bitter Granny. I want to see your father."

Seeing Chu Er was shocked: "I can't say which side he stands on."

Li Li Banfeng had thought about this many times: "I feel he stands on our side."
