The world is big.
On the contrary, Xu Luo had no idea how big it was because he had never cared about it.
But Xuansu Mountain alone, or the Xuansu Mountain Range, is hundreds of miles in radius.
This is just the core area.
With Xuansu Mountain as the center, spreading outward, in this vast area, there are many villages, towns and cities, all of which depend on Xuansu Mountain for their existence.
They are managed by Taoist temples and Taoist palaces in various places.
Taoists will not govern ordinary people, so basically the Taoist Palace appoints some people to manage them.
It has been like this for thousands of years.
The management area of Xuansu Mountain is at least several thousand miles.
In such a vast area, there are naturally many mountains and forests that no one has ever set foot on.
Taoist Xuansu only controls the area near Xuansu Mountain. As long as it does not affect Xuansu Mountain or threaten Xuansu Mountain’s disciples, he will not care.
When the disciples of Xuansu Mountain went down the mountain, they mainly dealt with the villages, towns and cities. They were powerless to deal with the more distant areas.
Therefore, many places that are rarely visited have actually accumulated a lot of powerful evil spirits.
Xu Luo was not sure, so he would not go.
His random flying is basically regular.
Even if they took action, they would follow the official road and clear the areas on both sides of the road.
At most, it will involve more distant places and deal with areas that Taoist Xuansushan has not reached before.
Although he couldn't do much on his own.
But cleaning up more areas can also reduce the danger to ordinary people nearby.
This is the limit of what Xu Luo can do.
In this process, collecting Yin Qi and Yin spirits and enhancing one's own strength is just a by-product.
After flying all night, he consumed a lot of mana and traveled to many places. He collected forty or fifty first or second level Yin spirits, but only three or five third level ones.
However, there is quite a bit of Yin energy, so it can't be considered a complete failure.
After returning to Tiandu Peak, Qiuqiu started whimpering and ran towards Xu Luo with his short legs.
Seeing the little thing, Xu Luo's fatigue from running around all night was relieved a lot.
After tidying up, Xu Luo began his morning lessons.
It’s just that he was usually alone, but now when he was reciting the Taoist scriptures, there was a chubby little thing sitting next to him, looking very funny.
The appearance of Qiuqiu brought a lot of joy to Xu Luo.
Now that the constant threat of evil spirits is gone, Xu Luo's tense heart finally relaxed.
During this period, he no longer needed to sacrifice and train Taoist soldiers, nor did he make paper figures crazily.
There are some spares, which are enough to use.
So what he does now is to command those Taoist soldiers and make them work for him without complaint.
Not to mention fetching water and chopping wood.
It is naturally necessary to arrange Taoist soldiers to cut Mo Ling bamboo, make fire and cook bamboo, etc.
The last page of Bai Lingzi's paper-making manual contains a secret method, which leads to the kingdom of paper men.
Xu Luo wanted to try and see if he could make it.
In addition, he wanted to perfect the Six Ding and Six Jia Taoist soldiers, and the amount of spiritual paper needed was not small. The ones accumulated in the warehouse had already been used when making paper figures before, so naturally he needed to make them himself.
Fortunately, making spirit paper is mainly a tedious process that takes a long time, but the process is actually just that and is not complicated.
Xu Luo directly commanded the Taoist soldiers to do these things.
You don't need to do it yourself at all.
He felt like he was back to the time when he had just gone up the mountain. At that time, Taoist Tiandu was holding a wine gourd and directing the three of them to work. As for Taoist Tiandu, he was only responsible for drinking.
The production of spiritual paper is similar to that of ordinary paper, except that there are more steps and the materials used are also more special.
Because of the huge demand for spiritual paper, the small workshop in front is no longer enough.
Xu Luo commanded the Taoist soldiers outside and built a new one.
It's worth mentioning that although the Taoist soldiers have no wisdom and need his command in everything, they are conscientious and hardworking, and are very good coolies.
After the papermaking workshop was built, Xu Luo arranged these Taoist soldiers to do their respective tasks.
However, although Xu Luo didn't have to do it himself, it was not easy either.
Because if you are not careful, there may be problems in any process.
Therefore, he needs to keep an eye on each part, and if there is a problem, arrange for Taoist soldiers to deal with it as soon as possible.
They were hesitant at the beginning, but after getting the hang of it, Daobing knew what to do, and Xu Luo also knew where to relax and where to focus.
It's very easy now.
After this period of training, he has also developed the ability to multitask.
In this era, productivity is backward. If we use the current papermaking technology.
The first step is to chop the young bamboo and put it into the pond. Let it soak for more than 100 days, so that natural microorganisms can decompose and wash away the green skin of the bamboo.
The second step is to boil the bamboo over high heat, put the bamboo obtained above into the "huang" barrel and steam it together with lime for eight days and eight nights.
The third step is to pound the bamboo into the mortar. Take out the processed bamboo, put it into the mortar, and beat it with the stone pestle until the bamboo is broken.
There is also the fourth step of placing the material onto the curtain, the fifth step of covering the curtain with paper, and the sixth step of drying it with fire.
Only after this can paper be produced.
It takes more than a hundred days.
But in Taoism, the first step of soaking for one hundred days can be shortened to three days, and the second step of eight days and eight nights can be shortened to just one day.
Therefore, from the first step to the last step, it only takes about seven or eight days to get the finished spiritual paper.
If you want to speed up, you can use Taoist magic to shorten it further.
What's more, after the first batch of spirit paper was made, the second batch was not made slowly after it was completed, but was made in batches over and over again. After the first finished product was produced, it was continuously produced.
So the results were gratifying, and in the warehouse, pieces of spiritual paper kept appearing.
What Xu Luo had to do was to cut these spiritual papers. After cutting them into the size he needed, he would fold them into the shape he needed and assemble them.
The ultimate goal is to create a paper man kingdom.
These spiritual papers folded into corresponding shapes also need to be painted with various talismans. Only in this way can the Paper Kingdom be more than just a Paper Kingdom, but a special magical instrument.
During this period, Xu Luo has been busy with this matter.
The large amount of spiritual paper produced was prepared for this purpose.
The Paper Kingdom was not built overnight and has many components, so Xu Luo doesn't need to be in a hurry and can prepare slowly.
If you have time, make more; if you don’t, make less.
Now that he knew that a battle would take place in a few months, Xu Luo tried his best to get the prize and began to speed up the construction of the Paper Kingdom.
Taoist soldiers are just Taoist soldiers after all. Although they have a commander, that’s all they are.
But if they had a paper country as their habitat, it would be completely different.
