122 years in Asgard.
On the winter solstice, the human race ate a mouthful of hot porridge. This time everyone ate it very carefully, for fear that a grain of rice soup would fall out.
The food grown on this land has a new name: fairy food.
It was rumored that the food in Tianzhou was made from the blood of immortals, and that they ate the flesh and blood of immortals. Such rumors that fooled the people were naturally quickly refuted by the Immortal Palace, which immediately launched an investigation.
And the result was soon obtained, a group of Dongtian sect monks were captured. Their motive was just to make more people commit suicide, use moral kidnapping to make more elderly people commit suicide, and even let the people cleanse themselves.
The elderly, the disabled, and even the weak are a waste of food if they are alive. For the sake of their king and father, they have the obligation to kill these people.
Give evil a justification.
The Immortal Palace was furious about this and killed hundreds of monks who advocated Cave Heavenism.
An ordinary young man was standing in front of a big pot, distributing rice porridge to the people one spoonful at a time.
Today, the human race has been eating from the same big pot, just like the legendary Great Harmony Society, where everything is distributed according to need. However, this distribution can only guarantee the most basic needs of the people, and sometimes it cannot even be guaranteed.
The Immortal Palace does not pursue this kind of formal harmonious society.
After the hot porridge was distributed, the young man put down the iron spoon, turned around and left, disappearing into the crowd. This did not cause much commotion, as everyone lowered their heads and drank the porridge carefully, and he was just a temporary food distributor in the City Lord's Mansion.
Qingxuan came from nowhere and walked with the young man in the cold city, looking at the people around them whose faces were red from the cold.
"Master, the temperature is getting lower and lower. If it continues like this, I'm afraid we'll have to live in the cave all year round. That place is not suitable for long stays. A month is fine, but if we stay there all year round, a weak person will probably not be able to bear it."
In a closed environment and crowded space, once someone gets sick, the disease will spread quickly, affecting hundreds of thousands of people.
With the current conditions of the human race, there are doctors who can treat illnesses, but there is no medicine for treatment. The monks cannot use their spiritual energy to save them. In order to support the granary and the underground fire, the human race has already exhausted its resources.
To put it bluntly, nowadays a life is not worth as much as a spirit stone.
One spirit stone can ensure that thousands of tons of food will not be eaten by weeds in a short period of time, and one person will only consume the food.
The extremely scarce supplies and precarious situation made Qingxuan's heart turn cold.
Sometimes he even suspected that he had a tendency towards esotericism.
Li Changsheng exhaled and said, "After this year, the wind and snow will gradually subside, so just bear with it."
All disasters can be overcome. According to the predictions made by those charlatans, the disaster will reach its peak this year and then drop rapidly.
This year is the coldest year.
"After this year, the underground fire will no longer need my blood and essence to activate it, and its range of influence will also expand."
"What if the wind and snow don't stop? Are you going to keep bleeding to save the world?" Qing Xuan suddenly asked, "You know those charlatans well. It's useless to calculate the big picture of small things."
"It's just a few drops of blood. You'll be back in shape in a few days."
Li Changsheng could not deny it, whether it was about bloodletting to save the world or the unreliability of Tianji Pavilion.
The secrets of heaven have always been mysterious and unpredictable. There is no predetermined destiny in the world, and the Tianji Pavilion is only able to reveal the most likely direction.
Qingxuan pursed his lips, and a glimmer of light flashed in his cloudy eyes, as if he had made up his mind. He said in a hoarse voice: "Master, stop it."
"Dongtian may be the right choice. With our current resources, we can support tens of millions of people."
The number of humans was too large. Originally, only 20 million people came to Tianzhou, and at least half of them died on the way. But after a hundred years of reproduction and development, the number has now reached 400 million.
The total amount of cold disasters in the past 10 years has even increased due to the concerted efforts of the human race. The people have less entertainment and are staying at home, so their desire to have children is even higher than before.
If the Immortal Palace had not required people to have fewer children, it would not be a problem to increase the number by tens of millions.
The people's hearts are with the immortals, and their worship of them has surpassed their instinctive desires.
If the people of the world do not cooperate with the Immortal Palace wholeheartedly, it is estimated that they will not be able to hold on for so long. The entire human race is actually maintaining a very extreme balance. Once the Immortal Palace, the Immortal Sect, and the people do not cooperate.
The current situation will collapse.
"You also think we should give up on most people?"
Li Changsheng stopped and turned to look at the white-haired old Taoist priest who had followed him for 2,000 years.
"It shouldn't be." Qingxuan shook his head, then changed the subject, as if he had made up his mind, and said: "But I don't think it's worth it. This world is not worth you doing this."
"Why should I need other people's opinions to do what I want?"
"Of course you don't need it, but please understand us. You once taught me that love has different types, big and small, close and far."
Qingxuan bent down and knelt on his knees. He raised his head and looked firmly at the ordinary face. It was the first time he disobeyed a young man.
"This world has become a burden to you, a blood-sucking worm crawling on you! You can bleed to save them today, but what about tomorrow? In the future, the world will change a lot, and there will be countless disasters. How can you deal with the disasters if you keep dragging this weak body?"
"This calamity is coming for you."
"If the world is compared to you, the world can be abandoned, and so can the world!"
The last note rose slightly, which immediately broke through the blindness in their minds and made the people around them look at them.
