Chapter 266.
What is this happening?
Wang Chen, who had just returned to Dongwu Walled City, couldn’t believe his eyes.
This scattered cultivator’s city fortress was in a remote location, occupying a very small spiritual vein, the kind that sects and large factions couldn’t even look at.
There were tens of thousands of permanent residents inside and outside the walled city, and the number of cultivators exceeded 30%.
In many of the outside world city fortress, Dongwu Zhai’s scale is far from the largest, but it is not very small either.
The most unusual thing about Dongwu Walled City was that its controller was a Violet Mansion Lord!
Of course it wasn’t the only one.
When Wang Chen had chosen Dongwu Walled City as a place to dive into cultivation, he had also been carefully selected.
It felt that this place was still very suitable for him.
However, he had not expected at all that he had only left for half a month’s time, but Dongwu Walled City had undergone great changes.
Outside the fortress, countless stone houses and wooden houses of varying heights had been built, and since there was not much planning, it appeared to be a mess, only leaving a road in the center to enter and exit the city gates.
The scattered cultivators, martial artists, and mortals that appeared out of nowhere became the new residents of Dongwu Walled City.
There were a large number of stragglers among them.
As Wang Chen walked all the way over, his ears heard all sorts of noises, cries, and pleas.
This scattered cultivator fortress had actually turned into a refugee camp!
“Lord Immortal Master have mercy, give a bite to eat.”
A dry, thin hand reached out to him, a pair of eyes filled with a look of expectation and pleading.
Praying for a little mercy and food.
Most of the beggars were mortals, a very few of the Metamorphosis Mortal Stage, and most of them were old and frail, pulling one or a few small children in ragged clothes.
These children were all yellow and skinny, some were skin and bones, and some were dying of hunger.
However, the passing cultivators turned a blind eye without expression, and if anyone dared to block the way, they kicked out.
Wang Dust stopped in front of a mother and daughter.
This pair of mother and daughter are also mortals, wearing thin winter months, huddled beside the stone house shivering.
Seeing Wang Dust, the pale woman did her best to squeeze out a pleasing smile, “Immortal, Immortal Master ……”
She hugged the sleeping little girl in her arms tightly.
Wang Chen secretly sighed.
He took out a beast skin jacket from his storage bag and draped it over the other two.
Although Wang Dust had long been fearless of cold and heat.
However, out of the need to change his face and appearance, he had stored various clothes in his storage bag.
The woman was terrified, “Thank you, thank you Lord Immortal Master!”
Those stragglers around her immediately cast envious and jealous glances at her, with no shortage of covetous gazes!
As soon as Wang Chen swept his gaze, these stragglers immediately shrunk their heads back, all terrified, not daring to take a breath.
“You, you, and you guys!”
Wang Chen pointed his fingers repeatedly, pointing out a few men whose bodies looked quite strong: “Go and collect firewood for me, the more the better, I’ll have my own rewards!”
“As you wish!”
As soon as his words fell, the few stragglers who were pointed out immediately jumped out.
They happily ran off to collect firewood.
Dongwu Walled City was surrounded by rolling hills, with an extremely high forest coverage, and the last thing it lacked was trees.
As long as one was willing to spend the effort to cut them down, then there would be as much firewood as one wanted.
Some of the stragglers who had not been ordered, but were quite resourceful, also followed suit and ran to cut down the trees.
In their minds, helping the Immortal Master was not a bad thing!
Wang Chen didn’t care about them either, and instructed the other stragglers to go and find stones for their own use.
None of the stragglers dared to refuse, plus Wang Chuan had promised a reward, so they all exerted their utmost strength to collect the materials he needed in the neighborhood.
Stones were the most common and least valuable things, and they were everywhere around, so they soon piled up a small mountain in front of Wang Dust.
Wang Chen started casting spells.
He took all of these large and small stones and first softened them into clay.
Immediately afterward, he kneaded and kneaded out a large three-legged tripod.
After the three-legged tripod was formed, Wang Chuan then applied Solidify Clay into Stone to solidify them into hard stone tripods.
Although Wang Chuan’s craftsmanship was lackluster, the three-legged tripods he kneaded out were all ugly.
But it didn’t have any effect on his next action.
When the nine tripods were completed, the stragglers who had gone to collect firewood earlier also returned.
Moreover, the team of loggers had increased to hundreds of people, and among them, there were many skilled martial artists.
Without asking the reason, Wang Chen asked them to pile up the cut firewood under the three-legged tripod.
As time passed, more and more people gathered around.
Most of the onlookers were stragglers and beggars, and there were also a few cultivators watching.
Everyone was very curious – what exactly did Wang Duan want to do?
In full view of everyone, Wang Chen asked the stragglers to fetch water from a nearby stream and poured it into nine three-legged cauldrons.
When the nine three-legged tripods were all filled with about seventy percent of the stream water, only then did he take out the white corn from his storage bag and pour it into these huge stone tripods.
By this point, everyone had understood.
Wang Chen was trying to cook the pots to make porridge!
And the rice used was still spiritual rice!
The gazes of some of the casual cultivators who had gathered around to watch him became bizarre.
Right now, the hard currency in Dongwu Walled City was not spirit stones.
Instead, it was spirit rice.
The price of spirit rice and even tribute rice had long since risen to the sky.
Ten pounds of white corn can be exchanged for a beautiful yellow flower girl in the “human market”!
Wang Chen even took out so much spiritual rice to make congee, it was clear that he wanted to give congee for relief, and many of the stragglers immediately became red-eyed, and surrounded towards the three-legged tripod.
They were worried that if they couldn’t grab a spot, they wouldn’t be able to share the spirit rice porridge.
This was spirit rice porridge!
“Stop!”
Seeing that the scene was about to be disrupted, a thunderous voice suddenly sounded in everyone’s ears.
These stragglers were immediately struck by lightning and froze in place, not daring to move.
Snort!
A golden qi energy swept past in front of them, leaving a deep mark on the ground.
“Cross this line and kill without pardon!”
The stragglers who woke up were all horrified, and they were busy retreating backward.
They were afraid of becoming the target of Wang Dust’s killing!
After maintaining order, Wang Chen flicked out a hot flame with his fingers.
He ignited the firewood underneath the three-legged tripod.
As the temperature rose, the water in the stone tripod began to boil, and the white grains of rice rolled up and down.
Wang Chen instructed a few stragglers who followed his orders to continuously add firewood under the tripod and add water to the tripod.
With nine cauldrons cooking together, the aroma of the spiritual rice porridge soon spread out, causing countless people to swallow their mouths wildly.
But under Wang Chen’s suppression, no one dared to act rashly.
Until the rice and water in the cauldron became porridge.
Only then was the firewood removed.
Wang Chen pointed out a few martial artists among the mortals and made them responsible for scooping the porridge and distributing it.
In fact, just cooked out can only be regarded as thin porridge, fully stirred after scooping up a bowl, the number of grains of rice inside is very small.
But is so thin spirit rice porridge, precisely can be digested and absorbed by mortals.
Playing hunger and satiety strong body effect!
The poor mother and daughter were the first to receive the porridge.
After drinking a bowl of porridge, they regained their blood color.
The other stragglers held porcelain bowls and pots in their hands and lined up in an orderly fashion to receive the porridge.
Many people’s faces were filled with smiles of joy and satisfaction!
