Chapter 450 Opening up wasteland

It’s a pity that even if Ju Yunhai and Zhou Jin didn’t practice in the sect, they wouldn’t travel all the way to Beiye County.

They have their own families and have no relatives or friends in Kitano County, so why would they come to protect the interests of Kitano County?

Their own tribe also suffered from a plague of locusts.

"Beiye County has no top families, nor does it have a Nascent Soul master. If the Su family alone wants to save the country, I'm afraid that only one in ten people will be alive after the New Year."

Since she really planned to station here, Mei Xiangu could not help but consider the survival situation of Beiye County.

"Yes, now in Beiye County, many people have migrated to the county town where the noble families are. Those places have Yuanying in charge and noble families to drive away insects. It is better than the villagers in Beiye County who have no one to protect them and are instead in chaos with demons."

Mei Xiangu said: "Actually, before coming to you, I went to find Wang Yanyu. Wang Yanyu also asked me to stay in Beiye County to help her--"

Her words surprised Tian Lin. When did Mei Xiangu and Wang Yanyu become so close?

"How do you want Wang Yanyu to help her?"

"Wang Yanyu will not allow others to interfere in Beiye County?"

Mei Xiangu sneered and said, "She wants me to help her kill those evildoers like the insect-eating immortal, the savior immortal, the reincarnation of Buddha, etc., so that these evil people will not cheat the people of their food and occupy their wives and daughters."

Tian Lin said: "So, even if I didn't bring you here, you would kill the Savior Immortal and the others."

Mei Xiangu nodded and shook her head: "I haven't agreed to Wang Yanyu yet - although I admire her courage to love and hate, but it's hard for me to stay here and help her."

"So, it was me who helped Wang Yanyu."

Tian Lin finished speaking with a smile, shook his head and said: “The disaster that befell Beiye County is an opportunity for Wang Yanyu.

Although she was able to be the head of the Su family in the past, her tentacles could not reach into the countryside. Now that the lower class was reshuffled, she could take advantage of the chaos to place people there - but this good opportunity was also accompanied by a great crisis.

After all, if the fields cannot produce food and the cities cannot be lived in, then what is the point of fighting for such land? "

"So, Wang Yanyu is still confident that he can govern Beiye County?"

Mei Xiangu’s focus is different. She doesn’t think there is anything wrong with Wang Yanyu taking the opportunity to centralize power.

On the contrary, if Wang Yanyu still couldn't seize the opportunity at this time, she would look down on her.

"I don't know whether Wang Yanyu can govern Beiye County. But I heard that she sought help from her family while trying to buy the Flying Toad from the Beast Taming Sect."

Tian Lin said: "Since she married into the Su family, she has bet her whole life on the Su family. So she may not be sure that she can defend Beiye County. It's just that she has no other choice."

Mei Xiangu's goddess tree is of little use to the entire Beiye County, but for the villagers in the northern suburbs, with the existence of Mei Xiangu's goddess tree, the northern suburbs truly have a few pieces of pure land.

All these pieces of pure land were gathered by Tian Lin. In addition, Tian Lin went to the Su family again and negotiated with Wang Yanyu, asking Wang Yanyu to recruit villagers to open up wasteland underground!
Although locusts are scary, there are always places they cannot reach.

For example, underground where sunlight cannot reach, or underwater where only fish can reach.

Although nothing can be grown in water, the fish and shrimp in it can provide food and clothing for some people.

Even though there is no sunlight underground, there are spiritual plant husbands with magical powers that can help plants survive.

This method may not be able to feed the population of Kitano County in its heyday, but it can greatly reduce the survival pressure of the people of Kitano County, and at least allow some people to see hope of survival.

The next morning, Wang Yanyu mobilized the servants of the Su family as instructed and began to post notices everywhere to announce the news of the land reclamation.

In addition to each village opening up stone chambers underground and asking spiritual farmers and cultivators to help with farming, Wang Yanyu mobilized all the foundation-building cultivators and planned to open up 100,000 hectares of land needed for the farmland within half a month. Opening up such a large area of space underground naturally requires a lot of manpower and material resources.

But the people who took action were cultivators, including some Jindan cultivators. After half a month, they had opened up a space of 300,000 hectares.

This space is connected into one piece, and there are tens of thousands of magic weapons supporting it to prevent the ground from collapsing.

It can be said that this space has mobilized all the power of the Su family and most of the power of Beiye County. The entire space can be regarded as the existence of half a Taoist weapon.

During the half month that the cultivators were reclaiming space, Wang Yanyu also had people blockade the entire Beiye County to prevent a large number of refugees from leaving.

These refugees were mobilized into underground spaces to implement the fertile soil plan.

It takes a very long time for a piece of land to become fertile land that can grow crops.

But the Su family has spirit stones and earth dragons bought from the Beast Taming Sect.

As long as you don't waste spirit stones and earth dragons, even spirit fields can be cultivated, let alone land used to grow ordinary rice?

In just ten days, the crushed spirit stone powder and earth dragons were scattered all over the 300,000 hectares of underground.

At this point, everything is ready, except for Tian Lin's support.

On this day, Kitano County once again held a spring festival.

In fact, the last spring festival had already proven that Ju Mang had no feelings for the residents of this land. It was impossible for Ju Mang to respond to the civilians of this land during this spring festival.

But Wang Yanyu held the Spring Festival simply to give farmers confidence and to boost morale.

After a day of spring festival, tens of thousands of civilians were arranged into the space to await deployment.

This space will be managed by Tian Lin next.

"Master, will your method really work?"

In this space used for farming, Wang Yanyu built a separate house for Tian Lin. Tian Lin will stay here for the next year.

"Whether it works or not, you won't know until you try it. But if it doesn't work in the end, I guess Wang Yanyu will give me some of the hatred she has for Zhaixingzi."

Tian Lin made a joke to Cui Er and his sister, and then said seriously:
"This matter concerns the lives of millions of people in Beiye County. If I were alone, I would not be able to do it. But now that you and other spiritual plant husbands are here, this method will definitely work."

He said to Cui Er and his sister, "Go and tell the people down below tonight that tomorrow morning, everyone should bring their plows and prepare to plant!"

There is no sunlight underground and the air is not well circulated.

The only few points of light were obtained by using magic weapons to simulate starlight.

The civilians who were arranged to farm in this space were barely settled in a group of thatched huts, forming a slum.

All the civilians had no hope because they were preparing to flee Kitano County and seek survival elsewhere.

Now they have been brought back and locked up here, and preparations have been made for burying their bodies underground.

They heard that someone in Kitano County had recently killed people and made meat.

Perhaps, they are the human animals used by the cultivators to fill their stomachs and make meat.
