Chapter 116 The Motivation of Mortals
The approximate base number of mortals is something they can control.
For example, in the current situation, a couple can only have two children. If they marry multiple women, the number of children they have will be similar to the number of children they marry.
In the case of one wife and five concubines, the best number of children is seven.
If there is a large-scale disease or the like, the decisions conveyed by the monks will change. In short, the decisions are constantly being adjusted, depending on the specific circumstances of the mortals and the monks.
Under the influence of the monks' decisions, the number of mortals was controlled within a reasonable range.
If a monk wants to marry and have children, he can have as many children as he wants. There is no restriction on this.
The number of monks is not large to begin with, and even fewer want to marry and have children. Therefore, the actual impact of how many children they want to have can be ignored. After all, energy is limited, and it is transformed into a seeder. The influence is also limited.
Furthermore, children born from the union of monks and mortals are more likely to have children with spiritual roots.
Calculating time, Li Xingtian's first child is now eight years old, and he will be able to test his spiritual roots next year.
Unlike the children born from the union of mortals and mortals, the children born between monks and mortals still have a little privilege, that is, their monk father can take him to test his spiritual roots in front of the family's senior officials.
In Li Xingtian in Xiushifang City, Tongyang County, he could ask Li Dixin to test the children to see if they had spiritual talent.
Although it is unlikely that the children born from the union of monks and mortals will actually have spiritual roots, the gap is several times higher than that of the union of mortals. After all, the latter has the talent of spiritual roots. The possibility of children is too small. The Foundation-Building Immortal Cultivation Family has a lot of mortals, but there are usually one or two monks every year, and some years there is not even one.
Soon after, Li Lilong left.
Although it is difficult to say clearly, Li Qianqing hopes that the current number of family members can be controlled at around 200,000.
If he starts to let go now, after he builds the foundation, the number of mortals should be around 180,000.
Mortals hope to have more children, but the influence of family monks forces them to restrict it.
If the decision-making is relaxed, many mortals will be added to the family in a short period of time. They all know that if they don’t have children now, they will have no chance when restrictions are imposed in the future.
In this way, ten years later, there will be many more children testing their spiritual roots, and the number of monks with spiritual roots will basically increase. It is not impossible that five or six monks will be born in a year.
After Li Qianqing saw Li Lilong leave, he returned to the house to prepare for practice, refining the first-level high-grade Qi Gathering Pill.
Among the Li family monks he has mentored, except for Li Xunting who has entered the seventh level of Qi refining, the highest level since then is Li Qiantong, who has now reached the sixth level of Qi refining.
Because the elixirs in the spiritual fields are well taken care of, Li Qiantong is now responsible for taking care of all the first-level high-grade spiritual fields in Evergreen Mountain, and the family contribution points he receives every year are much more than before.
If nothing unexpected happens, when Li Qiantong enters the late stage of Qi refining, he can start taking care of the elixirs in the second-level spiritual field.
"It would be best for the family to train a beast master in the future." He couldn't help but think of this when he thought about the situation of the Li family monks he guided.
A good beast master can also bring considerable benefits to the family.
After dispersing his thoughts, Li Qianqing officially entered the state of cultivation.
……
It’s still June.
It has been two years since Li Qianqing and Li Lilong proposed increasing the number of members of the Li family. During the subsequent conversation between Li Lilong and Li Cunliu, his proposal was successfully passed.
However, when it is officially implemented, some preparations are required.
For example, Qingfeng Valley must understand the situation, otherwise the Shang Zong may find reasons to make things difficult if he secretly increases the number of mortals. There is also the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom, the most powerful alchemy cultivator in the Zhao Kingdom. family.
The entire Zhao Kingdom is managed by the Zhao royal family.
Like the power of the Foundation-Building Immortal Cultivation Family, the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom will provide great convenience. For example, in places where the mortal clan members of the Foundation-Building Immortal Cultivation Family are concentrated, the managers are usually mortals of the family who have reputation and status, and then manage The second-in-command of the personnel are some mortals sent by the Zhao royal family.
They are said to be second in command, but in fact they basically don’t care about affairs, and their symbolic meaning is greater.
Despite this, when the Li family wants to increase the number of mortals, the Zhao royal family also needs to know, and they will also impose some restrictions. If they want to increase too much at once, they will definitely not be able to do so.
Under the pressure of various forces, this year the managers of the Li family received orders from the monks.
After the order was issued, it spread quickly.
“It’s getting dark, hurry up.”
“Why are you more anxious than me?”
"Can you not rush this matter? If you don't seize the opportunity, if it ends next year, I wonder if you will regret it."
"I know, I know, alas...it's beyond my ability."
< br>After the order spread, women who were still able to have children were urging their husbands. Although women in their thirties are not as good as those in their teens and twenties, it may not be easy to conceive, but the fertility of the spiritual root and mother Age doesn't matter. If a child with spiritual roots is born, they can live the rest of their lives comfortably and honor their ancestors.
Nowadays, the mortal members of the Li family, even women over forty years old, still have the idea of continuing to have children.
With the monks in charge, the children they give birth to are at least guaranteed not to starve to death.
For various reasons, once restrictions are lifted, mortals will experience a wave of growth in more than ten months.
Regarding the situation of the mortals, the managers of the Li family mortals in cities, counties, and towns will report the situation to the monks every other year. Based on the reported situation, the monks can also formulate different strategies. .
In the Evergreen Mountains.
Li Qianqing stopped practicing, and another first-level high-grade Qi Gathering Pill was refined by him.
After entering the tenth level of Qi refining, it only takes him seven days to refine a first-level high-grade Qi gathering pill, while in the later stages of Qi refining, this time takes half a month.
Now, whenever Li Qianqing has time to practice, he basically uses the first-level high-grade Qi Gathering Pill to assist in his practice.
At this moment, the center of the super large cyclone in his air sea is already in a semi-liquefied state.
"If I continue practicing like this, I will be able to reach the peak of the tenth level of Qi refining in two years at most." Li Qianqing is quite satisfied with his current cultivation speed.
After reaching the tenth level of Qi Refining, you can almost start preparing to build the foundation.
In the past two years, the number of first-level high-quality Qi Gathering Pills in his hand has been reduced by about 60. After all, he is not practicing all the time. Instructing children consumed the most of his time in the first two years. affairs, but this year the alchemy affairs should consume the most of his time.
