I don't want to do it, but he has a health bar

Chapter 187 I couldn't help it (Subscribe)

In the quiet and elegant courtyard, Zhang Ge Lao, who had become the Prime Minister, took out the jade talisman of faith that Lu Jing had left for him.

As the true Qi of Wen Dao was inputted into it, Zhang Ge Lao opened his mouth and said to the Taoist Jade Talisman: "Can we chat?"

That mentality, that tone!
It's just like a clown who broke up with his ex but still missed him and couldn't help but call his ex.

But long after Zhang Ge Lao finished speaking, the Taoist jade talisman in his hand remained silent.

It looks like a uniquely shaped jade pendant.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, Lord Zhang frowned.

"Did you hear that?"

The Taoist Jade Talisman remained silent.

Zhang Ge Lao suddenly became a little angry.

That feeling is like a woman who has made a mistake and takes the initiative to admit her mistake, but her boyfriend uses cold violence against her... Who can stand this?

Not even a saint can do it.

What's more, Zhang Taiyue is not a saint yet.

Zhang Ge Lao's originally calm state of mind suddenly became a little disturbed, with ripples crisscrossing.

Elder Zhang, who has always cultivated himself with the methods of literature and Taoism and asked me about my Taoist practice, felt uncontrollable ripples in his mind again after an unknown period of time.

So, Lu Jing didn’t carry the Taoist Jade Talisman with him?
It shouldn't be the case.

A person with supreme magical powers at the celestial level can even cut space at will... What can't he carry with him?

Why did he leave behind the jade talisman that brought him the Tao?
Is he targeting me?
Why should he!
Prime Minister Zhang was deeply indignant, completely forgetting that it was he who had said to Lu Jing passionately, "We've severed our ties of friendship."

This can be regarded as the highest level of breakup ceremony at present.

And now, he was the one who couldn't help but look back.

In fact, sometimes people are like this. At the beginning, they are emotional and extremely determined, and they say and even do cruel things.

But after a while, when the emotions subside, the past comes to mind and I can't help but miss the past.

Then, as if possessed by a ghost, he took out the number that he had deleted but was deeply engraved in his mind and dialed it.

If the other party answers the call, it's easy to start arguing again.

But if the other party doesn't answer, you will feel bad.

Now, Prime Minister Zhang is like this.

He wanted to crush the jade talisman in his hand, thinking that since you left me alone, we will completely break off our friendship from now on!

But as soon as he exerted force with his hands, he hesitated again.

Just like the clown who deleted his ex's number but then secretly memorized it.

"Maybe, maybe he really didn't have it with him."

"This shows that he still has me in his heart, otherwise why would he specially find a place to put the Taoist Jade Talisman?"

"I called twice. Although the Taoist Jade Talisman did not respond, it is still intact, which means Lu Jing was not willing to destroy it completely."

"Maybe he's... angry."

Zhang Shoufu scratched his head, then put the Taoist Jade Talisman away.

……

On the other hand, Lu Jing actually did not leave the Taoist Jade Talisman behind.

I also sensed Prime Minister Zhang’s call.

But he really didn't want to answer it.

So just seal the jade talisman and throw it into the Shanjun Sword. Now is not the time to contact the Dayu court.

Lu Jing has been very busy recently.

Ever since Lu Jing withdrew all industries from Japan, he split up and packed up the industries through the Steel Battlefield and came to the territory of Haixi Jianzhou, setting up camp in a place called Ehuo.

Okho is close to the Okho Sea, but the sea water here freezes in winter, forming hundreds of miles of ice surface.

The living environment is extremely harsh.

Lu Jing and his team were the first to arrive here as the vanguard. They wanted to take advantage of the good summer time to build a temporary living area here, and then build railways, ports and towns here.

The port ensures that daily necessities from Southeast Asia can be delivered here.

The railway can continuously transport resources from Southeast Asia to the hinterland of Jianzhou.

Help Lu Jing gradually erode Jianzhou.

In fact, the best land in Jianzhou is in Shengjing near Shanhaiguan, but it is now occupied by the Jurchen barbarians. A large number of Jianzhou Jurchens, Haixi Jurchens and Donghai Jurchens are fighting for the fertile land there.

Even the Tumaihan and Taining tribes among the Mongols, and the Black Stone Tankers and Huang Taiji tribes of the Tatars would fight for land.

Although the land is dark and silent.

But it is the real asset, the wealth.

Because any wealth can grow from the land.

If Lu Jing wants to contend with the monsters in the entire Mobei and Jianzhou, he must have a stable rear base.

Therefore, Lu Jing has been personally supervising the progress of various projects near Okho during this period.

When Prime Minister Zhang's call came over, Lu Jing was holding a meeting in the big tent with Cheng Fengxiao, Lu Xinming, Zhang Jiuyuan, Zheng Longwang, Shi Hainu, Song Yuheng and Pei Guanyin.

So when the Taoist Jade Talisman sounded, Lu Jing sealed it without thinking and threw it into the Tiger Sword.

Then he continued to instruct everyone.

"The walls of the houses we build here must be thick, and every house must have a heated foundation. So our current housing construction plan will have to be re-started."

Cheng Fengxiao frowned: "But this will take more time. It's summer now, and in autumn, this land of Okho will become extremely cold. In winter, ordinary people will not be able to survive here at all."

The cold weather in Ohuo is so severe that even a master in the True Qi realm cannot withstand a night of freezing outside.

Lu Jing nodded, "I know, so we have to speed up the solution. The first thing is to solve the problem of heating. If there is really no good way, then let the supernatural power level strongmen who practice fire skills take turns to boil water, and then build a large bunk bed type house, at least to survive this winter."

Lu Xinming added: "And warm clothes."

Ordinary cotton-padded jackets, even those with down, are not very effective in this extremely cold place.

The weather has become the most powerful and helpless enemy of all living beings here.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of talented people around Lu Jing.

King Zheng Long travels to the sea all year round, and he has even been to the Arctic Ocean in the Far North. So he said, "There is a kind of monster in the Far North whose fur is very good at keeping warm. There are fire crystals in the south. In addition, the most common problem caused by the cold is frostbite. There is a kind of fish called "Ice Bream" in the deep sea. The fish oil extracted from it is used to make frostbite cream, which is very effective."

Lu Jing nodded: "Then thank you for your help. By the way, these things we have made will certainly not be provided for free. We also need to issue our own currency, and then use work as a relief, and establish our own silver and money system."

Zhang Jiuyuan nodded.

Although he is a master of the School of Mind, he has a lot of experience in the way of money.

He can help formulate this matter.

Then there is the planning of the railway.

These matters were left to Song Yuheng and Pei Guanyin to plan.

Because the two of them had been staying in Japan before, they had the most exposure to the various things that Lu Jing had tinkered with, and they had the deepest understanding of them.
