Immortal Mansion Royal Beast
Chapter 556: The Immortal Palace Disaster
In the days that followed, time slowed down, and Fang Qingyuan stayed alone in the Yuanling Palace, quietly waiting for the recovery of the Immortal Palace's will.
With the continuous expansion of the Immortal Palace's population of millions, large tracts of farmland have been reclaimed on the newly emerged black soil, and the cycle of sowing, harvesting, and fertilizing has enabled the vitality of the Immortal Palace to recover rapidly.
It has been three or four years since Fang Qingyuan rescued these one million people from the mouths of those monsters. The first batch of children can now run and jump.
Among them, there are more than a hundred people who have the qualifications for spiritual root cultivation. Originally, Fang Qingyuan wanted to find something for Jin Bao to do, let Jin Bao take responsibility, and cultivate Jin Bao's patience.
But now Jinbao is in a deep sleep and cannot look after these children, so Fang Qingyuan has no choice but to select a dozen of the original practitioners, set up a practice school, and gather them all in.
Among the one hundred or so children cultivating immortals, less than one-tenth of them have the aptitude to reach the top-grade spiritual roots, and most of them have low-grade spiritual roots.
There is no way. The parents of these children have very poor roots. After being kept in captivity by sea beasts for so many years, they are full of diseases and their bloodlines are degenerating. Under such circumstances, it is already very difficult for them to give birth to children with spiritual roots.
Fang Qingyuan did not count on these practicing children now. Without a hundred years or even longer of conditioning, it would be difficult to produce a child with earth-grade spiritual roots.
Fang Qingyuan thought that if these practitioners could reproduce more, the aptitude of each generation would be enhanced. After a long time, maybe they would give birth to children with heavenly spiritual roots.
This is a long process. Fang Qingyuan has the patience to wait for hundreds of years, and now, he is only in the stage of sowing.
In the Immortal Palace, Fang Qingyuan's soul incarnation was listening to the report from the Bee Queen.
Fang Qingyuan, whose cultivation has now reached the perfect golden elixir realm, has almost reached the point of using the false to realize the true. As long as he can successfully survive the thunder tribulation, even if his physical body is destroyed in the outside world, he can survive for a very long time in the immortal palace.
Now Fang Qingyuan is standing in front of the bee queen. His soul incarnation is almost the same as his real body. No one can tell that it is an incarnation of soul.
"After this period of integration, the people outside the core area have been divided into five counties. Each county has a population of about 200,000. A county has ten townships, each with a population of 2,000. A township is divided into five villages, with 400 people in each village and about a hundred households in each village."
Fang Qingyuan sat on the chair in front of the bee mother, picked up the yellow book of fish scales from various counties and towns, and flipped through it casually.
The original gathering pattern, which was mainly based on tribes and rescued islands, was broken up by Fang Qingyuan's order after the initial adaptation phase.
Originally an island might have had a population of 10,000 or 20,000 people, but now all of them have been divided up, like a handful of sand, scattered across five counties, 50 townships, and 250 villages.
This move allowed the original headman class, the rentier class, and the class that lived off of labor to return to labor itself, and the islanders, who were originally widely oppressed, were no longer oppressed by a huge mountain, and their lives became much better accordingly.
Although the emergence of a new rentier class is inevitable in the future, for now fairness can be maintained for a few decades, which is beneficial to Fang Qingyuan.
However, during the splitting process, some people are bound to resist, but their strength is insignificant compared to that of the queen bee.
The original headman class was of better quality, and the chances of their offspring having spiritual roots were greater. Although this population was valuable, it was not worth Fang Qingyuan's effort to treat them gently. He instructed the bee queen to kill those who should be killed, as it was a long-term plan and there was no need to worry about the current losses.
After killing hundreds or thousands of people who were unwilling to change, the remaining islanders became obedient and transformed from islanders to villagers.
At this point, there are nearly one million villagers living on the black soil that occupies most of the area of the Immortal Palace. Fang Qingyuan distributed 30 acres of land to each household, which is enough to feed a family of five or more people.
Currently, Fang Qingyuan's cultivation has reached the Golden Elixir Perfection Realm, and the land area of the Immortal Mansion has, after continuous expansion, now reached a huge area of 200 miles in radius.
This is nearly 8,000 square kilometers of land. Excluding the core area and the 1,000 square kilometers designated by Fang Qingyuan, there are still nearly 7,000 square kilometers of land available for these villagers to live in.
But Fang Qingyuan did not disperse all the villagers because the land was too large and not suitable for self-management by these mortals.
The management of mortals must be done by mortals, because practitioners have too much power over life and death in front of mortals, which is not conducive to the reproduction of mortals.
And do practitioners feel a sense of accomplishment in managing a herd of cattle and sheep? Practitioners pursue a higher realm and avoid worldly affairs if possible.
Fang Qingyuan finally decided to use the ancient government ruling model and prepare to implement the imperial examination system. This model, which has been verified for thousands of years, is more suitable for the current situation.
"How is the village school going? Can we get enough teachers?"
Flipping through the fish scale book, Fang Qingyuan asked about the village schools in each township. These were schools run by five villages with joint payment of taxes and levies. As long as they enrolled children of appropriate age, Fang Qingyuan stipulated that every child could go to school voluntarily, from the age of six to twelve, and study for six years.
Of course, it is impossible to expect every parent to be so obedient, so there are rewards and punishments. Children who go to school will receive subsidies from the county government and food will be given directly to their parents. Parents who deliberately prevent their children from going to school will be punished with three months of hard labor every year.
In this way, it can avoid the situation where parents deliberately drop their children out of school in order to take advantage of their children's labor force. As for whether to continue to support their children to attend the county school after the age of twelve, that is the choice of each family and there is no restriction here.
"A rural school needs two to three teachers. The number of teachers is sufficient. However, I wonder if you would like to personally review the textbooks."
Mother Bee meant for Fang Qingyuan to develop teaching materials. This was the fundamental meaning of education. Fang Qingyuan had to start with teaching materials to determine what kind of people he wanted these children to become.
Loyalty to the emperor or patriotism, filial piety or independent personality, these all need to be decided in advance.
Fang Qingyuan has his own ideas about this. He doesn't want the Immortal Palace to become exactly the same as the outside world. If so, no matter how well the Immortal Palace develops, can it develop as well as the outside world?
In the outside world, Fang Qingyuan did not dare to expose his differences, but with the thoughts of his previous life, Fang Qingyuan decided to implement a different system in the Immortal Palace.
"You will formulate some basic knowledge of talismans, cultivation knowledge, and alchemy as the main knowledge. It must be easy to understand and arouse the interest of children. If conditions permit, it is not a bad idea to assign a cultivator in the early stage of Qi training to be a teacher. As for the other four books and five classics, and the words of saints, they can be just optional."
The bee mother was a little confused. She asked puzzledly:
"But we are only teaching these mortal children. They don't have spiritual roots and can't feel spiritual energy. What's the point of learning these?"
In response to this, Fang Qingyuan looked at him leisurely and said solemnly:
"This is a seed. I believe that one day in the future, among the children trained in this system, one will solve these problems. The biggest gap between practitioners and mortals is whether they can sense spiritual energy, but wisdom does not create an insurmountable gap.
Practitioners are also born from mortals. They are one species and have no reproductive isolation. Since there are no practitioners in the outside world who can solve these problems, why not let mortals, who are a hundred times more numerous than practitioners, try it?"
Why can some people be born with spiritual roots while others cannot? What factors influence the difference in spiritual root qualifications?
Many cultivators do not think about these things. Even if someone studies them, they are mainly concerned about how to improve their spiritual roots. For tens of thousands of years, this problem has not been solved and no one is aware of this.
Or it is forbidden to study this kind of knowledge. Those gods do not allow it. The class stratification in the cultivation world is ten thousand times more serious than that in feudal society.
But in the Immortal Palace, Fang Qingyuan was the only will. He decided to open up and try a different route. Even if he failed, he had nothing to lose.
The population of the Immortal Mansion has just moved in, and everything is starting to revive. However, Fang Qingyuan's original intention was not to do this. He let the Bee Queen take control and mobilized the people from the original seven large ships to be managers to ensure a smooth transition.
After Fang Qingyuan gave these instructions, he could feel that the bee queen was in a difficult position. What she was thinking in her heart was probably: I am just a golden elixir spirit beast, and you have given me so many things to do. I can't do it.
"Then take your time. This kind of thing cannot be accomplished overnight. It may take ten or twenty years to stabilize. I can wait."
Fang Qingyuan, who is about to form a baby, has become much more patient towards the passage of time and is no longer as anxious as before. If he were allowed to do it again, he would never covet the shortcut of cultivation in the Immortal Palace, but would prepare for a more prudent practice.
This may also be because when he was in Baishan before, he had a stronger sense of crisis, but now that he has entered Qiyun and external security is guaranteed, he does not need to pursue the speed of cultivation so desperately.
After leaving this difficult question to the bee queen, Fang Qingyuan went to see Jinbao and Yinbao again.
Jinbao has been sleeping for half a year. Although he still doesn't get enough sleep, he can sometimes wake up for a short moment, sit up in a daze and eat something.
This is different from previous sleeping situations. Perhaps it is because his realm has reached a higher level and his control over himself has also strengthened, so he can control the instinct to fall asleep.
This is a good thing for Jin Bao, but judging from his situation, it will take more than half a year for him to wake up completely. By then, it is unknown whether his cultivation level will be able to be promoted to the next level.
In comparison, Yinbao is more free. Now the fairy palace is very large, enough for Yinbao to have fun everywhere. Sometimes it flies above the villages of mortals. Nanli stands on its back and directs Yinbao to make clouds and rain, which allows it to do some practical work.
Now, each of the four companion beasts has his own things to do, and with the bee queen Nanli around, Fang Qingyuan can save a lot of energy.
Just like that, time passed little by little. In the following year or so, Fang Qingyuan participated in several Golden Elixir auctions in Qiyun City and bought several treasures for transcending tribulation with spirit stones.
During this period, there was news from Baishan. Xiong Feng took Qiqi and some other bears who were willing to return to their original spiritual land and prepared to live a peaceful life.
In the past ten years following Fang Qingyuan, Xiong Feng has had very few days of peace. He has fought in the south and the north, and from the east to the west. Now that the Kale family is willing to accept him, following the Kale family means that at least he won't have to fight continuously for ten years.
Some of the Qi-refining and foundation-building bear beasts had developed feelings for the disciples of Qingyuan Sect and were unwilling to return to the mountain with Xiong Feng, but Xiong Feng did not force them. As for the other Jindan bear beasts, except for Qiqi who was somewhat reluctant, the other ones were also willing to go back.
In this regard, Fang Qingyuan learned the news and did not think that Xiong Feng had betrayed Qingyuan Sect. Xiong Feng was willing to come to Qingyuan Sect mainly to escape Yue'e's cleansing storm. Now that Yue'e is gone, the Kaer family is willing to promise Xiong Feng relative freedom for the sake of Lechuan and himself. This is what he has worked hard for, and it is what he deserves for his hard work over the past decade.
Now, more than a year has passed, and Xiong Feng's injuries have only just recovered. It will take a long time to fully recover.
After Lechuan successfully conceived a baby, the Kale family changed the Baishan Beast Taming Sect to the Beast Taming Le Family as promised, and all of Lechuan's clansmen who remained in the main mountain also moved here this time.
Among them was the Le family's ancestral Yuanying companion beast, which originally did not want to come to Baishan, but was forced back by the Yuanying ancient beast sent by the Kaer family.
After Lechuan formed a Nascent Soul, he had the right to control this Nascent Soul ancient beast. Originally, this Nascent Soul ancient beast could use the excuse that Lechuan was not a Nascent Soul as an excuse to refuse to obey his orders, but now that Lechuan has successfully formed a Nascent Soul and has the support of Kalshao, according to the laws of the Beast Taming Sect, this Nascent Soul ancient beast must obey Lechuan's orders.
