Chapter 455: Fully exerting the innate true qi
"General Zhang, it's not that I don't want to send these refugees to Fuzhou as soon as possible, I just have no other choice!"

"Look, we only have so many runners in the county government. I have already transferred all the runners from the county government here, and even the servants in my house have been transferred here!"

"And we need doctors. There are too many sick refugees. Not only are we short of medicine, we're also short of doctors!"

"Hey……"

Magistrate Zhanghe sighed helplessly.

He is not shirking responsibility, but he really is powerless.

Although he was not a good official either, this time the order was issued by the Governor's Office and the Provincial Administration Commissioner's Office at the same time, and their attitude was very firm, so he, as a county magistrate, did not dare to slack off at all.

In particular, the note issued by the governor's office directly stated that if something went wrong, the chief official would be dismissed on the spot.

Now, all government offices in Chongshan Town are focusing on the reception and resettlement of refugees. Which official would dare to disobey the orders and act recklessly?

In order to keep their official hats and avoid being punished, local officials are doing their best to maintain order and ensure the reception of refugees.

But it’s hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice.

Zhang Chengzhi took out a telescope and looked along the official road. The long line was four or five miles long. At the current speed, it was unknown how long it would take to accommodate so many people.

And now is just the beginning, there are still a large number of refugees rushing here.

If these refugees cannot be allowed to pass through the reception points as quickly as possible, there will be more and more refugees behind them, and when there are too many refugees, some riots are inevitable.

Zhang Chengzhi thought about it, and then said to his followers: "Go to the nearby guard post immediately and ask them to mobilize soldiers to help!"

"There are also doctors. Bring all the doctors you can get here!"

"As for the medicinal materials!"

Zhang Chengzhi frowned and said, "Send a message back and have someone transport some of the medicinal materials stored by the shogunate!"

Although each garrison had stored medicinal materials, the amount of materials stored was not large enough to support the refugees.

The Shogun's office also stockpiled some medicinal herbs, but again, there were not many, and they were distributed to various refugee reception points, which could only be used for emergency purposes.

"This general will put all the soldiers in the surrounding garrisons under your management. You must ensure that these refugees can pass through Zhanghe County as soon as possible!" Zhang Chengzhi said to the Zhanghe County Magistrate with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Magistrate Zhanghe was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, General. I will do my best."

……

Chongshan Pass, inside the general’s mansion.

Yang Zhengshan sat in the study with a serious expression on his face.

The situation also exceeded his expectations.

Originally, he thought that it should be easy for Chongshan Town to accept the first batch of refugees. After all, Tenglongwei could easily accept 20,000 refugees, and now Chongshan Town is only accepting 50,000 or 60,000 refugees. There is no reason why there would be any difficulties.

But the fact is that from the very beginning, various problems arose at various receiving points.

This is actually because Yang Zhengshan overlooked some issues.

First of all, the refugees who migrated to Tenglongwei were escorted to Tenglongwei by local government officials. Along the way, most of the refugees either escaped the supervision of the officials or died on the road, and only a small number arrived at Tenglongwei.

Secondly, Tenglongwei was only responsible for receiving and resettling refugees at that time. After the refugees entered the territory of Tenglongwei, they were immediately taken away by various guards. One hundred-household guard station was assigned to dozens of families, and the military households took care of each other, and the resettlement was completed.

But now, after the refugees enter Chongshan Town, they still have to trek hundreds of miles to the north. Chongshan Town will be responsible for their food, drink, and toilet needs along the way. You can imagine the trouble involved.

Finally, Yang Zhengshan distributed a portion of spiritual spring water to almost all the refugees. Although it was only a little bit, it gave those refugees who were on the verge of exhaustion a chance to recuperate.

But now Yang Zhengshan is obviously unable to take care of all the refugees.

"wrong!"

“I can still take care of every refugee!”

Yang Zhengshan suddenly thought of something.

Now all the receiving points are requesting medicinal materials, but the medicinal materials stored in the General's Mansion are far from enough.

In fact, most of the refugees who fell ill were tired and hungry, not suffering from any serious illness.

Just give them a little bit of spiritual spring water and they will recover.

Yang Zhengshan is unable to take out enough medicinal herbs now. Although he has planted a lot of medicinal herbs in his space, even if he takes out all of those herbs, it will only be a drop in the bucket.

Similarly, he could not distribute the spiritual spring water to every refugee. Now there were only tens of thousands of refugees, but in the future there would be hundreds of thousands or even millions of refugees.

There were not enough medicinal herbs, and the spiritual spring water could not be distributed, but there were a lot of tea leaves, leaves and a large number of ungrown herbs in his space.

These plants are all irrigated with spiritual spring water and grow there, just like Dong Lingchun, they all have some of the same benefits as the spiritual spring water.

If these herbs were used as medicinal herbs and cooked into soup, each refugee would be given a bowl.

Well, the effect may be slight, but it should significantly reduce the number of refugees falling ill.

Do it as soon as you think of it. Yang Zhengshan said something to his close followers and went straight into the Lingquan space.

At this time, half a year had passed since he broke through to the innate realm, and the originally dark land was now covered with green grass and trees.

The lotus buds in the pond are still very small, having only grown from the original bean size to the size of a thumb. At this growth rate, it is estimated that they may not bloom for more than ten years.

Yang Zhengshan was too lazy to take care of these young sprouts.

He walked around the Lingquan space and then started picking.

The tea tree was plucked bare, except for the old leaves on the bottom layer, all the leaves above were plucked.

As for fruit trees, newly planted fruit trees must not be moved, but for fruit trees planted previously, all the leaves can be pulled out.

No matter how it tastes after soaking in water, what he needs is the efficacy of the spiritual spring water.

Medicinal materials!

Uh, will the mess be mixed into poison?
Yang Zhengshan thought about it and finally only took a few common tonics. As for the others, although he now knows a lot about pharmacology, it is better not to mess around. The precious medicine must not be touched.

In fact, the most common things in the space are not fruit trees and medicinal herbs, but weeds.

Previously, because the space was too large and Yang Zhengshan couldn’t take care of all the places, he spread weed seeds on all the remaining planned land.

Now half of the land in the space has turned into grassland, which is more lush than the green grassland.

Among the green weeds are various small flowers that cannot be named.

The reason why Yang Zhengshan planted such a grassland was actually that he wanted to raise horses in the space.

That’s right, raising horses!
The space will definitely become larger in the future, and Yang Zhengshan has long planned to introduce some animals into the space.

However, Yang Zhengshan still has concerns about whether the introduction of animals will have a harmful impact on the entire space.

After all, the biosphere in space is not perfect, and Yang Zhengshan must consider the sustainability and development potential of the ecosystem when introducing animals.

Now is not the time to think about these things. Yang Zhengshan looked at the lush grass and picked up the sickle to start harvesting.

It doesn't matter what kind of grass it is, as long as it's not poisonous.

Soon, Yang Zhengshan harvested a large pile of messy weeds and leaves.

Then he looked at the weeds and leaves that had almost piled up into a small hill, and slowly pulled out a long knife.

“Damn it! I didn’t expect that the first time I used my innate energy to its full potential I would use it on these weeds!”

The blade is shining and the true energy is surging.

The ten-foot-long true energy was waved repeatedly, and in the blink of an eye it formed a large net, wrapping up all the weeds and cutting and breaking them.

"Wake it up for me!"

Yang Zhengshan swept his sword across, blowing countless weeds into the air.

Then his body began to spin, and the knife in his hand also began to spin. The light green true energy turned into a light and shadow, and quickly passed through the flying weeds.

After a moment, Yang Zhengshan stopped what he was doing, leaning on his long sword with one hand and breathing heavily.

The weeds fell and buried him directly in them.

"I still don't have enough energy. I can't even last a minute even if I use all my strength!"

Yang Zhengshan shook his head somewhat depressed.

He stood up, grabbed a handful of broken grass leaves, examined them carefully, and nodded with satisfaction.

Now the grass leaves have all become the size of a fingernail, and various leaves are mixed together, making it difficult to tell which grass leaves are included.

Although it is a bit rough and doesn't look like a good thing, it is useful.

Don’t worry so much at this time!
After coming out of the space, Yang Zhengshan immediately returned to the Marquis' Mansion, found a more remote room, and then packed all the grass leaves into a sack.

It was very easy for him to pack the sack by himself. He just put his hand into the sack and with a thought, the grass leaves would appear in the sack.

In just fifteen minutes, he had packed hundreds of sacks.

Then he transferred hundreds of soldiers from the Zhenbiao Camp that was responsible for guarding the city defense and ordered them to transport all the grass leaves to the general's mansion.

“Distribute these herbs to various receiving points and have them make soup for the refugees immediately!”

"Remember, boil three taels of water in a pot and bring to a boil over high heat!"

In the general's mansion, Yang Zhengshan called Lu Wenhua and gave him instructions.

Lu Wenhua opened the sack and looked at the broken leaves inside. He was slightly startled, "My Lord, what is this recipe?"

“Uh~” Yang Zhengshan’s expression froze for a moment, but he quickly said, “Nine Herbs Health Prescription!”

This name was naturally something he thought of on the spur of the moment. The first thing that came to his mind was the Hundred Herbs Health Prescription. After all, it should contain leaves of hundreds of herbs. However, he already had Hundred Herbs Wine, so he changed it on the spur of the moment to Nine Herbs.

"My Lord, don't medicinal herbs need to be processed before they can be used? Are these genuine medicinal herbs?" Lu Wenhua was a little skeptical.

Although he doesn't understand pharmacology, he still knows some common sense about medicinal materials.

Yang Zhengshan felt that Lu Wenhua talked too much today.

These are certainly not genuine medicinal herbs!
If it's serious, then he can personally lead people to move it over!
But he obviously couldn't explain to Lu Wenhua, so he could only say: "Isn't the situation urgent now? Don't worry, this is a prescription given by an old friend of mine. It is very effective for physical deficiency. Although it is not prepared, it still has some effect."

"Hurry up and distribute these herbs. I'll have someone prepare another batch in two days!"

Yang Zhengshan had no choice but to create a friend out of nothing.

Lu Wenhua naturally wouldn't ask who Yang Zhengshan's old friend was.

He just felt strange, but after hearing Yang Zhengshan's explanation, he stopped asking further questions and quickly arranged for people to transport the grass leaves to various refugee reception points.

At first, the officials and runners at the refugee reception points also had doubts about the efficacy of these grass leaves, but since they were sent by the General's Office and the method of cooking was explained, they could only obey orders.

Although the grass leaves in the space also have the effects of spiritual spring water, they are definitely not comparable to the real spiritual spring water. In addition, after being boiled, the spiritual spring water contained in them is diluted.

The spiritual spring water contained in this bowl of soup is extremely rare.

But even so, it provided some nourishment to the refugees' severely depleted bodies.

There was no difference on the first day, but on the second day, doctors at various reception points found that the number of refugees falling ill had decreased a lot. By the third day, the refugees who fell ill were basically those who already had illnesses.

Although the vast majority of refugees still feel tired and weak, they are able to hold on.

For this purpose, many doctors have specially studied those grass leaves.

They definitely won’t be able to figure out anything.

Most of those grass leaves are weeds that can be found everywhere, and a small number are leaves of various fruit trees and tea leaves.
