Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 126
"Mountain people."

Guo Jia gave the answer.

"Mountain people?"

Qian Yuan frowned, recalling the information about the mountain people in his mind.

In a broad sense, the mountain people refer to the people living in the mountains. There are many mountains and rivers in the Eastern Continent, and there are many famous mountains and rivers. Most of the prefectures of the Dagan Dynasty are named after mountains and rivers, which can be seen.

The mountain people Guo Jia mentioned specifically refers to the mountain people living in the Zulong Mountains. They are numerous in number and have complicated origins.

Its origin can be roughly divided into three categories.

The first category is the primitive indigenous people who have lived in the mountains for generations.

They use tribes as units, scattered throughout the Zulong Mountains, worship mountain gods, and use birds, beasts, insects and fish as their totems. Whether it is their lifestyle or practice, they are very different from those in Central Earth.

Because the tribal leader is a shaman, he is also called a shaman.

Some witch tribes even live a primitive life of slash-and-burn farming, eating raw meat and completely isolated from the outside world.Therefore, in the eyes of the natives, these aborigines belonged to the uncivilized ethnic groups.

And because the Zulong Mountains are vast and boundless, full of poisonous insects and beasts, few people visit, and there are many dead places, Jedi and forbidden places, which are restricted areas for human activities, which give these mountain natives a layer of mystery.

The second category is the remnants of sects.

If the modern era (note: modern times) is the era of dynasties, then the previous era, the medieval era, is the era of sects, which lasted for a full 8000 years.

From the existing records, it is not difficult to imagine the majesty and magnificence of that era.

In the Middle Ages, there were many sects, Taoism and demons coexisted, and humans and monsters competed. Every mountain had at least one sect, and even several sects coexisted in one mountain.

At that time, Qingqiu Mountain was the domain of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.

In that era, warriors were on the decline, and monks were kings.The world of comprehension is beyond the secular world. Cultivators regard ordinary people as ants and the world of mortals as a chaotic world. They live freely among the mountains without being stained by dust.

In the eyes of mortals, monks are land gods.

At that time, the king of the mortal kingdom was just a dog raised by the cultivating sect. He could kill and seize others, and deposed himself. He only regarded the mortal kingdom as a breeding ground for the sect's disciples and a collection of resources.

Until the strong rise of warriors.

The army formed by pure warriors, relying on team combat and the help of formations, launched one after another encirclement and suppression of monks, and knocked down those high-ranking land gods one by one.

Until breaking through the sect and recasting the order of the world.

After the war that lasted for hundreds of years, the surviving monks of the sect either entered the court as officials, or became guest ministers, or magnificently transformed into dynasty families and integrated into the dynasty.

From then on, Yu Yutian ushered in a great era where monks and warriors coexisted.

During the process, there are also some diehards, who either stick to the sect's rules, or disdain the world of mortals, or whose hatred cannot be dispelled, hide their names and hide in the deep mountains and dense forests to find land and practice hard, hoping to make a comeback.

At worst, it is also necessary to ensure that the sect inheritance will not be cut off.

The Ancestral Dragon Mountain Range is undoubtedly the best place to go. It is sandwiched between the two races of humans and demons, and it is difficult for the army to enter the mountain to encircle and suppress them, so it has become the best refuge.

After these people hid in the Ancestral Dragon Mountain Range, some saw through the world of mortals, and only blindly practiced hard, pursuing the way of eternal life, until they sat in the nameless cave; some re-established the mountain gate and laid the foundation of inheritance.

Others started to think about those indigenous mountain people, and the two merged and infiltrated each other.

Thousands of years have passed, and no one knows what the current situation is like.

In the beginning, adventurers went deep into the Ancestral Dragon Mountain Range from time to time, with the purpose of finding those unowned cave relics in order to make a fortune.

However, the environment of the Zulong Mountain Range is dangerous, and the aborigines are full of hostility to outsiders, and they often go there without returning.

Over time, no one dared to set foot in it.

The third category is the people on the border who hid in the mountains in order to avoid the war.

This is the most numerous category.

Dagan has very strict management of household registration. After the war broke out, people could leave temporarily and become refugees or victims of disasters. After the disaster subsided, they had to return to their original places.

Dare to stay, once discovered, the light ones will be repatriated, and the serious ones will be fined to serve in the mine directly.

People on the frontier have been suffering from wars and chaos for many years. When they had nowhere to go, they simply plunged into the Zulong Mountains. Some became bandits and bandits, and some settled down in the mountains and became half aboriginals.

Most of the mountain people who go down the mountain to buy and trade all the year round are also in this category.

Some of them are lively and even become middlemen. They buy animal skins, medicinal materials, rare ores and other items from the indigenous mountain people, sell them at the Daqian border market, and then buy salt, tea, cloth and other items for daily necessities. The materials are resold to the aboriginals for profit.

It can be regarded as what each needs.

This kind of mountain people is the focus of Guo Jia's attention, because these people are the people of great cadres, and it seems that it is a good choice to go down the mountain again when Qingqiu Mansion is far away from the war.

After all, the hardships of life in the mountains are far more severe than those in the Middle Earth.

And being able to survive in such a dangerous environment in the Zulong Mountains shows that these mountain people are not ordinary people. They are recruited into the army and can be put to use immediately with a little training.

"Then try it!"

In the absence of a better solution, Qian Yuan approved Guo Jia's invitation to play, and looked at Li Chunfeng, "Mr. Please choose a day to accompany Feng Xiao to the mountain once."

The Ancestral Dragon Mountain Range is too dangerous, and only Qi-entraining monks like Li Chunfeng can control it.

Li Chunfeng took the lead and agreed.

At this point, this temporary military and political discussion has come to an end.

Before the discussion ended, Qian Yuan asked: "Building the structure of the vassal palace is only the first step in the development of the fiefdom. Next, how to develop agriculture, revitalize industry and commerce, how to increase fiscal revenue, and how to stabilize people's hearts. I hope everyone here can offer suggestions. , bring it up in the next meeting for everyone to discuss together.”

"promise!"

Cao Rui and others are both excited and deeply aware of the heavy responsibility. If everyone else has something to say in the next discussion but you don't, will you still have the nerve to occupy a high position?

…………

Gods.

The news that Emperor Qian had granted marriage to the Fifth Purple Moon quickly spread throughout the divine capital, causing a heated discussion even greater than the Autumn Victory. The Fifth Purple Moon's name was really too famous.

Who would have thought that God, one of the peerless twins, would just marry and be someone else's wife?
For a while, I don't know how many men were heartbroken, beat their chests and feet, and said nothing. No matter how confident they were, they didn't dare to compete with the king of Qingqiu who was in the limelight.

Wei Wangfu.

In the past two days, the third prince Gantai was in a bit of a panic. At first, Fifth Ziyue rejected his pursuit, but now he agrees to marry his younger brother, which is really a slap in the face.

Worrying.

"Third brother, don't worry about it. With Fifth Ziyue's personality, even if she marries the fifteenth brother, she will probably only be a couple in name only." The fourteenth prince comforted.

The third prince Qiantai forced a smile and said that he didn't have any grudges in his heart, which must be a lie.

man.

At the beginning, the third prince Gantai pursued Fifth Ziyue, although it was mainly out of interest considerations, not necessarily because of sincerity, but Fifth Ziyue was after all a first-class beauty in the world.

Rejecting him, but agreeing to the fifteenth brother, must feel uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the third prince Gantai is a hero, he quickly suppressed that bit of grievance, and said: "Fourteenth brother, what I really care about is not this, but the attitude of the emperor."

If the fourteenth prince realized something, "I also feel the same way. While giving the fifteenth brother the right to open a house and build teeth, he also arranged a good marriage for him. Now the fifteenth brother really can rest easy. "

"Humph."

The third prince Gantai sneered, "Now it seems that the father's neglect of the fifteenth brother before was all an illusion. The purpose of relegating the fifteenth brother to the border is to keep the fifteenth brother."

"But third brother, there is one thing I don't understand. Father has so much confidence in the fifteenth brother? Could it be possible to foretell the foresight and know that the fifteenth brother will definitely make a name for himself in Yize County?" The fourteenth prince said nothing. untie.

At the beginning Qianyuan left Beijing, but no one was optimistic about it.

"I can't figure it out either." The third prince Gantai also looked confused, "Perhaps, father can see something that we can't see."

The fourteenth prince didn't want to get entangled in this topic, so he said instead: "Since the fifth family has agreed to this marriage, it is already impossible to win over in the future, we have to make plans early."

The third prince Gantai laughed, and said: "I just got the news that Fifth Panshi has postponed his departure to return to the west on the grounds that he wants to prepare a dowry for Fifth Ziyue, and his father has also given his permission."

"So, Father intended to hand over the First Legion to Third Brother?" The Fourteenth Prince was also very excited.

"It should be." The third prince Gantai's eyes were inexplicable, "Didn't you say last time that the father is arranging the funeral? I guess this is also part of it."

"Congratulations third brother!"

The fourteenth prince saluted, "Looking at it this way, the father still prefers the third brother."

"It's not easy to draw a conclusion now." The third prince was actually very excited. When he got the news last night, he stayed up all night. Don't blame him for losing his composure, it was really a matter of great concern.

Whoever it is will lose their mentality at this juncture. The performance of the third prince Gantai is considered good.

"It's probably true." The fourteenth prince is very optimistic. He and the third brother's interests have long been tied together. After thinking about it, he said: "In this case, the third brother might as well improve the relationship with the fifteenth brother. One With one more ally, the second one can further influence the fifth family through the fifteenth brother."

"Can not be done."

The third prince Gantai shook his head, "We have already formed a knot after what we did, how can we improve?"

"..."

The fourteenth prince fell into silence, but he didn't know what to say. There will always be a day when the truth will be revealed, and it cannot be covered up.

It is indeed a knot.

The third prince was domineering, waving his hand and saying: "What you do for your fifteenth brother is what you do. There is no need to worry about it. Although he is in the limelight now, he is already out of the game. What I am most worried about are those three."

The Fourteenth Prince nodded, naturally understanding the implication.
