I save spiritual roots for the next life

Three months ago, the Ninth Prince had left the hospital to travel around the dynasty.

On the surface, it was said that he wanted to sharpen his Taoist foundation, but he had a scribe close to him. When the prince told him about this that night, his eyes were almost astonishing.

It was obvious that the Ninth Prince wanted to patrol the world, summarize the actual situation seen in various parts of the dynasty, and come back to gain points in front of the Holy Emperor.

At that time, the prince also encouraged Li Jizhou to find a way to go out with the ninth prince.

Since there was no way to stop the Ninth Prince's behavior, letting the Seventh Prince do the same thing would at least level the Holy Emperor's favor towards the Ninth Prince.

At that time, Li Jizhou replied to the prince that the ninth prince rejected his request.

At this time Chongwenju said, it is time for Li Jizhou to travel.

For a social system like the Jiuli Dynasty, where imperial power was supreme and there was cruelty and autocratic rule, or a hereditary monopoly country where personal power was supreme and longed for enlightenment and ascension, in fact, the suffering of the people and the hardship of the people's livelihood were not the ruler's concern at all.

The people of this kind of country are nothing more than the blood bags of the royal family and the ruling class.

As long as the blood bag can continuously transfuse blood for the ruling class, it can defend the ruling class against foreign invasion, and ensure the support of the ruling class.

They are all monks anyway and will never die of hunger.

Therefore, what the ruling class needs to be most concerned about is the total population, mainly the fertility rate and the number of people running to other countries.

The second is not to rebel.

It doesn't even need to be like a common dynasty, which in order to show off in front of the literati ministers, they have to show an attitude of understanding the sentiments of the people and caring about the world.

In this kind of dynasty, the courts are all high-level monks, and they are all here for resources, and they all have vested interests.

Let them distribute resources to the people? wishful thinking.

Of course, there are also people like Chong Wenju who really want to make the country rich and the people strong.

However, this kind of person is destined not to be an official in this kind of dynasty.

After bidding farewell to Chongwenju, Li Jizhou waited for a few more days.

Until Hong Luan returns.

"Sir, after a few months of separation, do you miss the slave family?" Hong Luan habitually teased Li Jizhou with his furry tail.

Li Jizhou pulled its tail in the palm of his hand, and while stroking it, he asked: "Don't be reckless, how about it? Have you found out the whereabouts of Liu Hongling?"

During this year, in addition to sending Qing Qiong to search for Gua Gua in the Eastern Wasteland, he also sent Hong Luan to the Cangming Imperial City to find Liu Hongling's whereabouts.

In the imperial dynasty, there was no special respect for the lineage of earth spirit masters.

First, the Zhongzhou Earth Vein is deeply hidden, unlike the Poison Swamp where you can obtain the earth vein relic treasures.

Secondly, excluding the characteristics of the Earth Spirit Master's ability to seek dragon points, he cannot compare with the high-level monks of Zhongzhou in terms of magical attack. Moreover, it is too difficult for the Earth Spirit Master to advance, and it is far inferior to cultivating magic power.

However, half a year ago, Li Jizhou learned more information from Chongwenju about the heavenly spirit master who was the originator of the Ten Thousand Poison Swamp. He had a guess about the advancement of the earth spirit master, so he hoped to find Liu Hongling.

"Master, the Sister Liu you are talking about has been searched all over Cangming Imperial City but there is no trace. Are you sure she is in Cangming Imperial City?" Hong Luan asked coquettishly.

Li Jizhou frowned slightly when he heard this.

Before his death in his previous life, he heard from the Shangguan family that An Liuli had been captured in the Cangming Imperial City. He originally thought that An Liuli and Liu Hongling might be arrested together due to their closeness and their status as an earth spirit master.

It seems not now.

"I wonder if he is dead or alive? If he is alive, is he still in Guzhu City?" Li Jizhou shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Ten Thousand Poison Swamps are deeply hostile to the Jiuli Dynasty and cannot send people to Lone Bamboo City to investigate.

Half-demon is even more likely to be caught and used as a plaything in Lone Bamboo City.

Li Jizhou temporarily suppressed the idea of ​​​​looking for Liu Hongling.

"It's time to go out for a walk!" To create a high-grade Taoist foundation, you need to understand the world.

Moreover, Li Jizhou's practice this year had consumed almost all of his reserve resources, so it was time to look for the prince and Long Xiang to harvest the wool.

"Brother, I heard someone say yesterday that Ninth Brother is touring the world this time to observe the people's sentiments and understand the national conditions of our Jiuli Dynasty. He was praised by many people.

Some people say that the ninth brother's behavior will definitely be appreciated by his father.

I'm afraid that after I come back this time, I won't be able to compete with him again! "

The prince had known about the Ninth Prince's thoughts for a long time and was already upset about it. Now that Li Jizhou emphatically mentioned it, his heart suddenly became hot and uneasy.

He glared at Li Jizhou with some hatred: "Lao Qi, last time I told you to let you go with Lao Jiu, but in the end, you just gave up after being rejected, and now you are watching helplessly as Lao Jiu is about to take you away. If you don't think of ways to make up for your favor, but you look like you've given up, what do you want me to say to you?"

"Brother, what you taught me is, but now, how can I make up for it?" Li Jizhou asked hurriedly and sincerely.

After hearing this, the prince's face improved a little, and he leaned down slightly: "What else can I do? Lao Jiu can go to patrol the world and come back to make suggestions for his father, why can't you?"

"Brother, do you want me to patrol the world now?" Li Jizhou pretended to be stupid.

"Not only do you want to go, but you also have to be better than Lao Jiu!" The prince looked at Li Jizhou with an even more depressed look.

"Better than Ninth Brother? Please teach me, big brother!"

"Hey, you... how do you compete with Lao Jiu for your father's favor? Come here!" The prince shook his head in disgust, and finally gave guidance with serious words:

"He's just watching, then you have to do it!"

"When he sees the suffering of the people, you have to solve it and provide relief. Only in this way can you show your kindness and goodwill, and you will definitely be favored by the emperor!"

"..." After hearing what the prince said, Li Jizhou was speechless.

For a moment, I couldn't figure out whether the prince was bound by the dragon-slaying skills of Long Xiang's group of ministers, or whether he had set a trap for himself?

In such a society, if any prince really acts like this, he will naturally win the glory of the whole house, and even win the praise of the Holy Emperor.

However, this basically eliminates the possibility of holding the throne.

However, no matter what the prince thought, what he said was in line with Li Jizhou's purpose.

"Brother is enlightened, and Brother Yu has benefited a lot. Brother Yu will set off tomorrow, but...brother, please help Brother Yu with some spiritual stones, otherwise, Brother Yu will not have the financial resources to help the people!"

"..." The prince suddenly looked at Li Jizhou.

Is this guy so direct with me now?

During this year, Li Jizhou often borrowed spiritual stones from the prince.

In the end, Prince Li Zhi nodded and gave Li Jizhou 10,000 middle-grade spiritual stones again.

In order to stop the Ninth Prince, the Prince risked his life.

Satisfied, he left the Prince's Mansion and just returned to the Seventh Prince's Palace when Long Zhenxiao arrived.

Wood spiritual stones are the greatest benefit of Li Jizhou's practice, but wood spiritual stones are not available to ordinary people. Even if he has spiritual stones, it is difficult to buy them.

So here in Long Zhenxiao, his biggest need is wood attribute spiritual stones.
