This world is too big and too vast.

In the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty, the highest authority was the central elders' home with nine elders, and suppressed the great Zhou fortune in the fairy city of Fenghao.

There are three thousand major states under Fenghao City, each state is like a province in the previous lifetime, with a wide area and a population of tens of millions.

How wide is the entire Great Zhou Xian Dynasty? Because it involves some secret places and sea areas of fairy mountains, it is difficult to measure, but the population must have exceeded 150 billion.

And there are many human countries like the Great Zhou Xian Dynasty.

The area of ​​the various wildernesses dominated by the demon race is even wider than the area occupied by the human race.

In addition, the ocean occupied by the sea tribe is even more vast.

The Great Zhou Xian Dynasty had an army guarding the four sides, and the Demon-Suppressing Office cleared the four fields. It was difficult for big monsters to see in the Immortal Dynasty, but the area of ​​the National Dynasty was too wide after all, and small monsters were always inevitable in the wilderness and forests.

Li Shi has been working on demon-removing work for half a year and is most aware of the potential dangers in the countryside.

That's why he thought of taking his parents to settle down in the city.

Although demons occasionally sneak in the city, there are officials from the Demon Sect and yamen constables all year round, which is much safer than in the countryside.

It’s just that the cost of living in big cities is high, and it takes a lot of money to move to big cities.

...

After leaving Yuanjia Village, I walked a distance and arrived at a county road.

This county road is paved with hard soil and has been repaired all year round by county governments. It is very flat and can accommodate a single carriage and a rune locomotive.

Rune locomotive, a means of transportation driven by runes, is like a car from the previous life.

When he had just traveled through time, he had no memory of his acceptance. Li Shi looked at the farmers in Qingshan Village who could eat enough, but their clothes were worn and they lived in adobe thatched huts. He thought he had traveled to an ancient world of immortals and demons with low productivity in the lower class society, but high-level practitioners mastered their personal power.

Li Shi still remembers that Xiaoqingshan was extremely poor and had no rune lamp, so he was particularly shocked when he first saw the rune motorcycle in the county town.

It was also that time that Li Shi knew about the existence of runes and knew that this world was more complicated than what he had known before.

Runes, from a certain level, are the technology, rune locomotives, and rune lamps in this world. Through understanding, Li Shi felt that the rune manufacturing level of the Great Zhou Xian Dynasty today is almost the same as the technological manufacturing level in the 1950s and 1960s on Earth. It may be due to the difference in world rules. It has reached a certain limit to this level and it is difficult to make a big breakthrough.

Moreover, because of the different world rules, rune creation is extremely backward in communication technology. The reason is that Li Shi thinks that it may be because there is no radio in this world.

Electricity and thunder are extremely special existences in this world, and anything related to it is not simple.

Although electricity cannot be widely used, spiritual energy is its substitute for rune manufacturing. For example, although there are no electric lights here, there are rune lights that use spiritual energy to illuminate.

Rune-made products with less spiritual energy, such as ordinary household rune lamps, can also absorb the spiritual energy in the environment by itself to illuminate and illuminate.

Of course, rune-made products with a lot of spiritual energy or high spiritual energy power, such as rune locomotives, absorb too little spiritual energy by themselves, which is not enough to support it to run quickly, so a special power source - spirit stone is needed.

Spiritual stones, the essence of spiritual energy gathering, are one of the most precious resources in the world.

High-power rune production products require spirit stones, human races, demons, and sea races. No matter which race they are in, they often need to use spirit stones.

In order to compete for the spirit stone mineral source, there have been not only ethnic wars in history, but also wars of wars within the human race and between countries.

...

The transportation in the Xian Dynasty was quite developed, and there were three major transportation networks in the prefecture. Each township led to the county roads of the county town, connecting each county road to the prefecture city, and each prefecture city road to the prefecture city.

Li Shi walked quickly along the county road for more than ten miles. He encountered many pedestrians and carriages on the road, but he didn't even encounter a rune motorcycle.

Rune locomotives are expensive and costly to use, and are rare on the roads, let alone the county roads.

However, if you are on the state road, you can often see that there are shuttle buses to the state city between the prefectures and cities. Those who are not short of money or who have to hurry to and from the state city can take a large rune bus.

The only time Li Shi went to Yuanxizhou City from Qiyang Prefecture and experienced the feeling of taking a rune shuttle bus.

The rune bus, which can accommodate forty or fifty people, drove on the spacious state road with lightning speeds far exceeding ordinary carriages. It took more than 600 miles to arrive in two hours, comparable to the bus that drove on the expressway in the last lifetime.

Moreover, the rune shuttle bus is more comfortable than any bus that Li Shi had taken in the previous lifetime.

The state road is ten feet wide, paved with all the gray stones, and is extremely flat. The rune bus is almost unbumping and stable when driving on it. Moreover, the rune bus will hardly make any noise and will not smell gasoline, except for the speed of the rune bus that breaks through the air because it is too fast.

The car is spacious and comfortable, and everyone has their own seats to sit or lie down, and the ride experience is very good.

That time, Li Shi felt that he had finally realized the word "immortal" in the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty.

The predecessor of the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty was the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is rare for a feudal dynasty that Li Shi remembers to evolve to this level.

The emperor has stepped down. Under the leadership of the Central Elders' House, he has spent thousands of years, expanding from the 32 states and 80 million people during the Great Zhou Dynasty to the current 3,000 states, with a population of more than 1,500 billion people. Just from the size of the scale, he can afford the word "Immortal Dynasty".

Moreover, in today's Great Zhou, not only the level of immortal cultivation, but only from the perspective of humanitarian development, there are immortal cities like Fenghao, which gather hundreds of millions of people and are full of hundreds of high-rise buildings, which are the prosperity of the world.

From this point of view, rune manufacturing is fully popularized, transportation is developed, and all industries are prosperous.

From the bottom, the working farmers at the bottom can afford to wear food and clothes. Few people who starve to death and freeze to death, and almost everyone can practice. Those with outstanding talents and diligent people also have hope of wealth and immortality.

If we look at it from the perspective of a feudal dynasty as the starting point, such a humanitarian dynasty is not an "immortal dynasty", what is it?

...

After Li Shi got off the county road, he walked more than ten miles on the countryside mud and sand path, passed three villages, and finally came to a very remote village, Qingshan Village.

The sun sets, and it is almost dusk. Li Shi looked around. Many people in the village have curling smoke rising, and together with the mountains and forests on both sides, forming a beautiful pastoral painting.

The village is very quiet. Apart from the barking of dogs, only frogs and insects in the fields are chirping.

All of this seems beautiful, but behind such beauty, it often means poverty.

Looking at the dilapidated adobe huts in the village, Li Shi felt thoughtful.

"A feudal dynasty can indeed be called an immortal dynasty... It can be seen from the perspective of two lives that it is still a little worse. At least, the lives of the people at the bottom are not good enough."

The farmers here do have food, clothing, and clothing, but that's all. According to him, most farmers can only afford meat a few times a year, and the clothes they wear are mostly worn. A piece of clothing may be passed on by the father to his son, and then the brother to his younger brother.

and……

Li Shi looked at the mountains and forests outside the village.

In this world, demons are always numerous, and for farmers living in the countryside, potential dangers are always there.

...

Li Shi returned to Qingshan Village in the evening, but Yuan Shu from Yuanjia Village was preparing to take people to transport the toad spirit's body and the medicinal materials produced in the village to the Fucheng.

It took him a few days to go back and forth to the Fucheng, so he prepared for an afternoon, arranged the matters in the village before he was ready to set off.

Originally, it was the most unsafe to travel at night, but through his brother-in-law who was working in the county town demon department, he knew that a convoy of the demon department passed by on the nearby county road tonight. As long as he followed the convoy of the demon department, it would be very safe.
