For the next while.
The bamboo building became a world for just the two of them.
Chen Tai stroked Wu Meng’s hair, watching as she ate and told her story in a disjointed manner.
“It’s just a gambling debt, you can just tell Ba Zi about it.”
“As for those people selling flour on the mountain?”
Chen Tai narrowed his eyes, a glint of cold light flashing in them.
He was no stranger to this kind of thing.
In his second life, there was a demonic sect called the Bliss Sect.
Named after the Bliss Grass they cultivated.
That Bliss Grass was almost the same as the flour in this world.
Although the pills made with this stuff could increase the probability of a cultivator breaking through in a short period of time.
Once addicted, their path would be ruined.
As for ordinary people getting addicted?
Ordinary people would fall into hallucinations just by smelling the scent.
Once they tasted it, they wouldn’t be able to withstand the medicinal effects and would directly explode into a blood mist.
But this effect was exploited by some bottomlessly evil beings.
First, they made it into incense to lure people into illusions.
Then, they forced people to take the herb, causing them to explode into a blood mist, collecting their blood煞 (sha).
Extremely terrifying!
In this world, although these things were not as strong in medicinal properties.
They also made it almost impossible for him to find blood sources that didn’t need purification in this area.
Almost every material that Ba Zi Ge sent over.
Needed a purification process by him.
Truly annoying.
But Chen Tai calculated.
His current cultivation, even half of it hadn’t recovered yet.
Strictly speaking.
If Ba Zi Ge was bold enough.
To shoot at him.
As long as Chen Tai didn’t dodge and got hit.
He would definitely be wounded.
Chen Tai slowly let out a sigh.
He patted Wu Meng’s face.
“We need to think long-term.”
In recent days, he also learned some news from Ba Zi Ge, such as the current power distribution in Three Sides Slope.
Three Sides Slope is a general term for a large area.
Including many places.
Small Grinding Pass is one.
And Da Ban, Wu Meng’s home.
It’s occupied by a group of water-runners, led by a man called Guess Uncle.
There is also a Grinding Mine Mountain.
It’s also a place of mixed crowds, the current biggest force is led by a Dragon Country person called Wu Hai Shan, who controls several mine tunnels.
And Hemp Ox Town.
The current sheriff is a man called Aisso.
He has a group of orphan troops under him, with a desperate attitude, they’re not easy to deal with.
Hemp Raising Town.
It’s also a town.
Big Curve Forest.
It’s next to Small Grinding Pass, also a mix of crowds.
Grind to Let.
It’s the largest and most prosperous city in the Three Sides Slope region.
These forces, intricately intertwined, make up the Three Sides Slope region.
And slightly south of the Three Sides Slope region.
There is the more complicated South Bowe State region.
There are several groups of local militia fighting each other.
As for those making flour on the mountain.
According to Ba Zi Ge, they were also a group of local militia in the past.
They were just scattered a few years ago, the remnants of several groups, none of them submitting to each other.
They started this business.
This Three Sides Slope region, with a radius of only a hundred miles and a population of only a million.
In the entire Shan Kingdom, it’s just a corner of Mo Bo Bang.
Further away, there are other local militias.
There are also other desperate people who make flour.
For example, the Golden Triangle, located at the border between the Shan Kingdom and Siam to the south, and Laos to the east.
And Three Sides Slope, is located on the edge of the Golden Triangle.
How can you describe it with just one word – chaos?
“Hmph! Once I’ve recovered my cultivation.”
Chen Tai narrowed his eyes.
“First, I’ll kill all these flour-makers.”
“That way I can free up some labor force.”
“To help me raise poison insects.”
Chen Tai had long been tired of this hands-on life of raising poison insects.
Although those poison insects were collected from the mountains by Ba Zi Ge and Fourth Master’s people.
But from feeding to making them into pills, it was all done by Chen Tai.
In his previous life, this would have been done by dedicated subordinate sects.
Even this so-called Five Poisons Divine Pill was just an inferior pill.
He, the Sect Master of the Netherworld Sacred Sect, was actually doing this?
Truly, shameful!
Thinking about it, Chen Tai was distracted and lost control, a cold chill ran up his spine, his legs twitched, and his body shivered.
“Forget it, forget it, think long-term, think long-term.”
There are many miraculous pills in the 《Five Poisons Pharmacology》.
But it takes time to cultivate the poison species.
At least, it needs to have the toxicity of his current Ghost Face Black Widow.
“It’s all a matter of patience.”
In recent days, Chen Tai’s body finally recovered completely.
It can be considered recovered.
It’s just that his cultivation has not broken through to Qi Refinement.
He’s still stuck in the Fetal Breathing realm.
“Should I find a few more women, to practice the 《Great Joy Sutra》?”
A thought suddenly popped into his head.
But Chen Tai thought about it.
“Better to have none than to have the wrong ones!”
Just like in his previous life, he would rather spend his effort on turning the Righteous Path Saintess into a cauldron.
Than to find someone with better skills from the Joyful Union Sect.
Everyone has their own psychological quirks.
Suddenly, his mind was stirred.
He lowered his head and looked at Wu Meng.
He asked: “Wu Meng, do you want to learn magic?”
...
Another day.
Just as Chen Tai was teaching Wu Meng to help him make pills.
Ba Zi Ge’s voice came from outside the door.
“Master Tai, I want to ask you for a favor, ga.”
Chen Tai first asked Wu Meng to wipe her hands, which were covered in the blood and flesh of poisonous creatures, and then asked her to open the door.
“What trouble have you encountered?”
Ba Zi Ge outside the door was full of anger.
When he saw Chen Tai, he deliberately lowered his voice.
“I want to ask Master to help me find someone, he cheated me out of over a million, and he’s disappeared, ga.”
Hey! Interesting.
Chen Tai was immediately interested.
In this Small Grinding Pass area.
It’s not easy for something like this to happen.
First, not everyone can borrow over a million from Ba Zi Ge.
They must have some financial backing, collateral.
Secondly, he owed Ba Zi Ge money, he couldn’t pay, and he’s disappeared.
Isn’t this openly slapping Ba Zi Ge in the face?
“What’s the person’s name?”
“Do you have any personal belongings left at your place?”
Ba Zi Ge was prepared.
He immediately took out two large bunches of keys.
“The person’s name is Shen Xing, he borrowed 1.2 million from me using the machinery from the construction site over there.”
“We agreed that he would repay it in a month.”
“But it’s only been three days, and he’s on the wanted list.”
“How the hell do you repay that!”
“He’s disappeared.”
