C872 It's Not Easy to be the City Lord
Yun Yang said, "Mayor Lee, now that Pingwu King has stopped bombing, why don't we take this opportunity to make peace with him? What do you think? "
"Talking about peace?" Lee Hao smiled and said, "Why did you stop Yan He? Hand over the high-grade Spirit Vein? To think you thought of it! "
Yun Yang's old face was a little embarrassed. Who asked Lee Hao to speak so bluntly, but he did not give up on his idea.
Yun Yang continued, "Mayor Lee, the high-grade Spirit Vein is a disaster, not a blessing. Because of it, many fellow daoists have been killed. If the high-grade Spirit Vein is in Fallen Immortal City, Fallen Immortal City won't be peaceful for a day. It's better to give it up and let the two princes fight for it! "
The more Yun Yang spoke, the more unpleasant he felt. A high-grade Spirit Vein was a good thing. But this had nothing to do with him. However, the existence of a high-grade Spirit Vein had affected their cultivation. They naturally wanted Lee Hao to hand over this source of trouble, and let Xianlin Mountain regain its peace.
This wasn't what Yun Yang was thinking alone. In fact, many rogue cultivators were thinking the same thing. They had suffered an undeserved calamity this time, and they felt very wronged in their hearts!
Lee Hao replied, "Fellow Daoist Yun, what you said makes sense, but the matter isn't as you think. The high-grade Spirit Vein is now mine. Why should I hand it over to Pingwu King? Is he beautiful or handsome? Could it be because his strength is high? So what if he was strong? First, he had to break through the City-defending Array in Fallen Immortal City. The grand formation is still there. Why are you all panicking?"
" This... "
Yun Yang was depressed. The grand formation was still there, but what about in the future?
Yun Yang said, "Mayor Lee, you might not know this, but the two princes have steeled their hearts this time. They will not retreat until they get the high-grade Spirit Vein. The army will be stationed at the entrance of Fallen Immortal City."
"I know that the formation of Fallen Immortal City is powerful now, but there are hundreds of thousands of cultivators trapped in the city. Not to mention other things, just eating is a big problem. Besides, the resources in the city are limited. What can we use to cultivate?"
"Eh? This is really a problem!"
When cultivators cultivate, it doesn't mean that they don't need to eat anymore. In fact, they still need to eat, it's just that the food they eat is rich in spiritual energy.
There are hundreds of thousands of cultivators gathered in the city, and the amount of food they consume every day is shocking. If they didn't have food to eat, wouldn't these people cause a ruckus?
Of course, there were some differences between cultivators and mortals. Cultivators were more resistant to hunger, and it wouldn't be a problem for them to not eat for more than ten days. But what about after ten days? Without food, spiritual energy alone wouldn't be enough to replenish the nutrients needed for the body.
Lee Hao never thought that just after he became the City Lord, a difficult problem was placed in front of him.
Lee Hao asked, "There should be food in Fallen Immortal City, right? How much is left? How long will it last? "
Yun Yang said," There are still 300,000 Spirit Valley left in the city. At most, it can be fed to the cultivators in the city for a month."
"They are all foodies!" Lee Hao rolled his eyes. Three hundred thousand stones. Each stone was worth one hundred kilograms. This was thirty million kilograms of food. What about the population in the city? Let's count it at 500,000! Each person needs to eat nearly two jin of food a day.
Is it too much? It sounded a little too much. But in reality? This was still too little. Because rice alone was not enough to make one hungry. It was normal to eat more. Take the soldiers from ancient times for example! An adult could eat a catty of rice a day.
In fact, the appetite of modern people was not small either. It was only because they ate too much, so they ate a little bit of each dish. It did not seem like much. Actually, when added together, the amount was not shallow either.
It was the same in Spirit Realm. Usually, they would not be able to eat this kind of Spirit Valley. They could also eat some vegetables or spirit beast meat. But now, there was no such condition.
These things were all in the surroundings of Fallen Immortal City. Who would dare to leave the city to retrieve them at this time? Wasn't this an act of courting death?
Of course, there was also a special kind of pill in the Cultivation Realm, which was the Fasting Pill. Consuming one pill could satisfy a cultivator's daily consumption.
The Fasting Pill didn't mean that cultivators didn't need to eat. The raw material used to refine it was the Spirit Valley, and it was only to extract the essence within. There was only one purpose in doing this, and that was to make it convenient for cultivators to enter secluded cultivation.
"Mayor Lee, the Fallen Immortal City won't be able to hold on for long. You are now the lord of a city, so you have to come up with a feasible solution." Yun Yang continued to use the soft knife to threaten Lee Hao.
Although he had made up his mind to leave Fallen Immortal City, he couldn't leave Xianlin Mountain. Besides, it wasn't easy to leave the Fallen Immortal City now.
Putting aside the fact that the prince was still outside the city, just the Spirit Vein of the Yun Family alone, would Lee Hao let him take it away so easily?
As the only city in the Xianlin Mountain, the three families had put in a lot of effort to manage the Fallen Immortal City. Putting everything else aside, the number of Spirit Veins in the city was already very considerable.
When Lee Hao entered the city, he took a look. The number of Spirit Veins in the Fallen Immortal City was even more than the number he had robbed in the Xingdong City. There were 12 middle grade Spirit Vein and hundreds of low grade Spirit Vein, and the spiritual energy was very rich.
This was the reason why Lee Hao was confident in resisting Pingwu King's cannon.
Although Lee Hao could not completely modify the formation of the Fallen Immortal City in a short period of time, he still had such a rich amount of spiritual energy. Here. He could totally use the spiritual energy to build up the formation. Wasn't it just a waste? In any case, these were all Spirit Veins that he had picked up. Lee Hao did not feel any heartache.
Some of these Spirit Veins belonged to the Wu Family, some belonged to the Liu Family, and some belonged to the Yun Family. They were also very easy to recognize.
Now that the Wu Family had been destroyed and the Liu Family had surrendered, these two Spirit Veins naturally belonged to Lee Hao. However, the Spirit Vein of the Yun Family had yet to be concluded.
What was Lee Hao's identity? Spirit Vein Pirate. He sounded like a person who thirsted for the Spirit Vein. Why would he ask the Yun Family to bring the Spirit Vein back to the old mansion? It was impossible even if he thought about it.
These were the most important treasures of the Yun Family. If these Spirit Veins were lost, it could be imagined that the decline of the Yun Family was only a matter of time.
Therefore, at this moment, Yun Yang was in a dilemma. He really wanted to pat his butt and walk forward, but he couldn't. He was extremely annoyed.
Of course, this wasn't an urgent matter. The most important thing right now was to send away the prince outside. Only they left. Everything was negotiable. Otherwise, how could he be in the mood to bargain with Lee Hao when he was surrounded by powerful enemies and was in a precarious situation?
It was impossible to force Lee Hao to take out a high-grade Spirit Vein. After all, Lee Hao's combat strength was there. Therefore, he could only bring up the problem and let Lee Hao understand the current situation.
However, Lee Hao did not have the intention of Yun Yang. He waved his hand and said, "What are you in a hurry for? He could still hold on for another month. We'll talk about it after a month. Pingwu King and South-suppressing King had already withdrawn from the army by that time. "
"Besides, what you said just now was only the stored food in the treasury. How could a rogue cultivator not have it in his storage bag? How could a big family like you not have it? Adding it up to two to three months wouldn't be a problem. Yun Family Master, don't you think so?"
Lee Hao narrowed his eyes and sized Yun Yang up. This old man actually dared to fool him. Did he really think that Yun Yang was an idiot?
"Mayor Lee is right. I was thinking too much." Yun Yang smiled awkwardly and said, "Since Mayor Lee has made up his mind, I will take my leave first." After saying that, Yun Yang cupped his hands and left.
