After the clan meeting dispersed, Lin Qinglong, Lin Qingjue and other clan deacons each prepared a generous gift and headed towards the surrounding acropolis.

Relocating people is a complicated matter. Not only does it require a good deal with the governors of the various cities and towns, but also the various towns below the Acropolis.

The relocation of people must also follow the principle of voluntariness, Lin will not force them.

As for how to make people volunteer, it is actually not a complicated matter. Just promise them benefits and provide them with adequate living security.

Few ordinary people would refuse the conditions proposed by Lin.

Becoming a citizen of the Lin clan not only allows you to get a large sum of money on the spot, but also allows you to farm on the Lin clan's land and the taxes are also lower.

People at the bottom of the Lingwu world have no guarantee of survival, so naturally few would reject Lin.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, a group of civilians soon moved their families and belongings to Wolong Town.

"The relocated citizens should first satisfy the needs of Lion County and Black Wind County." Lin Qingshan ordered.

Immediately, the governors of these two counties, Lin Shigu and Lin Qingxue, organized manpower and carriages to transport the people to Xiongshi County and Black Wind County.

The reason why these two counties are satisfied first is because Jiu'an County and Tianhui County are too primitive. Even the roads have not been repaired, making it inconvenient to transfer and govern the people.

Relatively speaking, Lion County and Batu County not only have smooth roads, but also have many fortresses built.

By transferring the population there, they can quickly settle down, form stable settlements, and organize the labor force to invest in production and construction.

The task at this stage is to build the main cities of these two counties.

But Lin Qingshan didn't want Tianhui County and Jiu'an County to be left behind too much, so he arranged for some tribesmen to go to surrounding counties to recruit workers.

Unlike governing the people, hiring labor is not that sensitive. As long as you don't recruit too many, the local garrison offices will never interfere.

Lin Qingshan estimated that he could recruit nearly ten thousand young and strong labor force in the surrounding counties.

These labor forces will be invested in road construction, striving to run through Tianhui County within a year, and then start the construction of the main city of Tianhui County.

Jiu'an County is deep into the wilderness, and Lin Qingshan does not plan to move ordinary citizens there for the time being, so its construction will be behind Tianhui County.

…

While Blackwind County and Xiongshi County were intensively carrying out large-scale development, Shi Yu came to the fourth-level spiritual vein in the middle of Tianhui County alone.

Among the rolling mountains is a quiet lake.

This was originally the lair of Moxu Jiao, and the fourth-order spiritual veins and earth veins were all in this lake.

The tall trees blocked the mountain wind, and the lake was as calm as a mirror, without any waves.

The lake is not big, but the water is very deep. The sun cannot reach the bottom, making the clear water look a little dark and deep.

Shi Yu looked around, memorizing all the terrain in his mind, and silently deduced it.

"If you want to build a city here, you need to transform the terrain first and make use of the surrounding mountains..."

Suddenly, a young man's voice broke the tranquility of the jungle.

"Who is here?"

Immediately afterwards, there was a whoosh, and a figure appeared from the sky.

"Qingyuan, it's me." Shi Yu smiled.

The person who came was none other than Lin Qingyuan, the deacon of the Lin family and a member of the Qing generation.

"It turns out to be Elder Shi Yu! Qingyuan has met Elder Shi Yu!" After seeing Shi Yu clearly, Lin Qingyuan quickly saluted Shi Yu.

After Mo Xujiao was surrounded and suppressed by the Lin family, only the remnants of his soul were left, and he fled into the earth veins at the bottom of the lake, not knowing whether to live or die.

To be on the safe side, Lin arranged for some tribesmen to set up a stronghold by the lake to monitor the activities here.

Lin Qingyuan is one of the clan members arranged by Lin to guard here.

He has a high level of cultivation and is the person in charge of a stronghold. He has several people under his command, all of whom are young tribesmen. They arrived one after another after him.

"Did anything happen to this lake?" Shi Yu asked.

"Back to the elder, nothing unusual has happened in the past year." Lin Qingyuan replied.

"It seems that the Moxu Jiao must have lost its soul." Shi Yu said softly.

Unlike spiritual veins, earth veins are much more complex.

Spiritual veins can be seen as nodes where spiritual energy breeds between heaven and earth. Compared with other places, the spiritual energy is much richer and will breed treasures.

The earth veins are different, and the earth veins must be accompanied by special terrain.

There are no rules as to whether this terrain is safe or dangerous, closed or open, whether it will breed treasures, and what kind of treasures it will breed.

Shi Yu guessed that there was a treasure in this earth vein, and it was probably stone milk that could improve the bloodline.

Otherwise, how could the Moxu Jiao evolve from a python to a Jiao? Eighty percent of the success is due to Shi Ru.

In fact, the role of stone milk is not only to improve bloodline, but also has other functions. The Zhentian Cauldron once traded many thousands of years of stone milk from Shi Yu.

Shi Yu guessed that the Heaven-Suppressing Cauldron was used to restore its original power. After all, the energy level of the Ten Thousand Years Stone Milk was very high.

But no matter how high the energy level is, it can never repair the soul.

Of course, it does not mean that one earth vein can only breed one kind of treasure, earth veins can breed many kinds of treasures.

It is also possible that this earth vein may have given birth to some kind of treasure that is useful to the soul, but the probability is too low.

Mo Xujiao's fate was most likely to be strangled to death by the chaotic earth energy the moment he entered the earth's veins.

"I wonder why Elder Shi Yu came here this time?" Lin Qingyuan asked curiously.

"I came here this time, naturally, for the earth veins at the bottom of the lake." Shi Yu said.

"Can the elder solve the problem of this earth line?" Lin Qingyuan said with joy on his face.

Several people behind him couldn't help but have a look of joy on their faces.

There is no other way. It is too uncomfortable to guard Mo Xujiao here. There is nothing in the mountains and old forests.

The only fun is hunting. In the past year, all the monsters around here have been killed.

No matter how far away they are, they can't go and can only stay in the stronghold to practice most of the time.

Now, there is finally hope for liberation.

"I'm not sure whether the problem at the bottom of the lake can be solved. I can only give it a try. You go notify the tribesmen in other strongholds and be alert. I'll go down and take a look." Shi Yu said.

"Okay, elder, come on!" "Elder Shi Yu, it's up to you!"...

Lin Qingyuan and others put their hope in Shi Yu.

Without saying much, Shi Yu circulated his true energy, released his body-protecting energy, formed a circular shield, and quickly swept towards the bottom of the lake.

"Guigui, Elder Shi Yu has become stronger again!"

"This unintentional momentum makes people feel frightened. Could it be that Elder Shi Yu has broken through to the Lingtai realm?"

"Stop thinking blindly and quickly notify the tribesmen in other strongholds to be on alert."

…

The spiritual energy around him quickly became rich, and soon, Shi Yu reached the bottom of the lake.

In front of him was a stone cave. Due to the disturbance of the earth's energy, he couldn't see clearly what was inside.
