This was the clash of modern thinking and old-fashioned thinking. Lü Shu knew the consequences of not being hygienic. He had asked Li Heitan and the others if they were sick, and Li Heitan had said that there were people who died from illnesses, and they didn't even know the cause of death.
Along the way, Lü Shu and the others encountered many powerful wild beasts, even Second Rank ones. This was what Lü Shu had been worried about, because the denser the spiritual energy, it meant that humans weren't the only ones benefiting from it.
Lü Shu had discovered along the way that the leeches in the dark pool could even penetrate the skin of a Third Rank cultivator. What about parasites? There would definitely be mutations.
He caught a leech to test it, and the leech actually survived for a minute in boiling water before dying. That was why Lü Shu requested that they drink water that had been boiled for two minutes.
Fortunately, the river at the foot of the mountain was clear, and it was exposed to the sun. Usually, water that could reach the level of boiling water would not have leeches. Water with leeches meant that it was undrinkable, and there would be a lot of impurities even if it was boiled.
What Lü Shu needed to do now was to impart his basic knowledge to Wu Weijun's soldiers. Whether they liked it or not, Lü Shu had the final say.
It should be known that this group of burly men had never paid attention to this before. Along the way, Lü Shu could see fleas and lice moving through their hair. It was really disgusting.
For the sake of this group of burly men's cleanliness, Lü Shu had specially asked Li Heitan to take out a few boxes of soap for them to use.
Wu Weijun's soldiers muttered in the river, "Does the king despise us Wu Weijun's men? It's too shameful for these men to be inspected naked. "
"The king has been watching us all this time, and he wants us to take off our clothes and bathe. Could it be …" Someone's hair stood on end.
"I'm not the kind of slave with a mark on my butt …" Someone said in shock.
When Liu Qianzhi heard this, he glared at them and said, "Just do what the king tells us to do, don't talk nonsense!"
Lü Shu's mouth twitched when he heard their words. He finally understood why Zhang Weiyu's tone was so strange! They had all suffered a loss because of their lack of knowledge!
At first, these Wu Weijun street children felt uncomfortable bathing every day, but after seven days, everyone felt … really comfortable!
In the past, even if he had taken a bath, he would be covered in fleas and lice when he returned to the camp. He had gotten used to the itch.
Now that the entire campsite paid special attention to hygiene, everyone felt extremely refreshed, as if their spirits had improved a lot.
Previously, some people had even asked if the King despised them for waiting for seven days. To be honest, they also despised themselves seven days ago.
Lü Shu sighed. He really had to start from scratch to correct these homeless children of Wu Weijun. He couldn't be careless at all. If he really wanted this Wu Weijun to have combat strength again, he had to first change their habits and discipline.
The step of improving personal hygiene was already showing results. The houses were gradually getting their frames, and some of the terraced fields were also starting to be sown.
Although Lü Shu felt a little tired, he also felt a sense of accomplishment.
The wood was directly cut from the mountains. Here, wood resources were the most abundant, and they were all cultivators, so it was very convenient to transport them.
Lü Shu looked at Liu Qianzhi and the others skillfully building the barracks and was curious. "They're very skilled."
"In the past, we were the most disliked in Wu Weijun, so we did all the hard work like building the barracks." Liu Qianzhi smiled and said, "As the deputy commander, I take the lead in the work."
Lü Shu nodded. These people were indeed very efficient, but there was a problem. How could he make these people have combat strength?
To be honest, the pure strength of this group of people was not much different from the Qing Fortress Army. Armies were all like this. They paid more attention to cooperation in battle, willpower, and other comprehensive strength, and these people just happened to lack this.
If the Blackfeather Army really came, Wu Weijun should at least have some ability to protect himself, right?
Lü Shu had a slight headache. If only Xi Ba or Zhong Yutang were here. Even if these Wu Weijun were to be trained as new soldiers, they would have some form in half a year. It was a pity that Lü Shu had not come into contact with these things before. After being a teacher for a few days, he only taught individual combat.
He could teach these slaves swordsmanship, but without the consent of the Sword Tower, Lü Shu would not take the swordsmanship cultivation method for himself and pass it on to others with peace of mind.
Now that there was an environment for Wu Weijun to train his soldiers, he did not know how to train …
He did not care about them for now. He would settle the house and the fields first before anything else. Lü Shu had to train now.
He unexpectedly found that the spiritual Qi in the karst cave was denser than that of the Azure Dragon Village. He simply stayed in the karst cave every day to train his swordsmanship, quickly improving his cultivation.
Half a month later, Lü Shu exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. Now that his swordsmanship had reached the fourth grade, he could kill even a third grade with the help of the sword intent!
At this moment, Li Heitan shouted outside the karst cave, "My King, we caught a group of suspicious people!"
Lü Shu was stunned. Didn't they say that this place was deserted? How could they catch people? Could they be the scouts of the Blackfeather Army?
He walked out of the karst cave. When Wu Weijun's soldiers saw their King coming out of the karst cave, they would subconsciously salute respectfully. This was not because they were being pressured or forced to do so, but because Lü Shu had been fair and had never embezzled their rations. Although they did not eat very well every day, they would definitely not work on an empty stomach.
In troubled times, there was nothing more precious than a wise ruler who was willing to sympathize with his subordinates. The vagrant children seemed to be more grateful than ordinary people.
However, it was only limited to respect and working hard. Lü Shu felt that if he really brought them out to war, this group of people would definitely run faster than mutated rabbits!
Lü Shu followed Li Heitan up the hill. "What's going on?"
"They look like ordinary people. There are more than fifty people who escaped from the south." Li Heitan thought about it and said, "However, I still have to wait for my King to confirm it. These people are starving, but it's very strange. They don't want to drink the water we gave them …"
Lü Shu frowned. If they were just ordinary people, then it would be best to keep them here. This was to prevent this group of people from leaking out and letting the Blackfeather Army know that there was a force of Wu Weijun's in the mountains.
In the end, Lü Shu was stunned the moment he saw that group of people. At this moment, Li Heitan said, "If you have anything to say, say it to our Great Commander!"
The other party was also stunned when he saw Lü Shu. "We haven't seen each other for so long, and you've already become the Great Commander … What kind of nonsensical title is' Great Commander '…"
Lü Shu was amused. "I say, Zhang Weiyu, weren't you guys hiding in the cave? Why did you come here?"
Zhang Weiyu felt a toothache at the thought of this. "The Blackfeather Army is serious this time. Fortunately, we had a bad premonition and left early. Otherwise, we would have all died there."
Suddenly, Zhang Weiyu looked at Lü Shu and then looked at the respectful attitude the group of people next to him had toward Lü Shu. Two months ago, he was clearly a slave who had escaped for his life. How did he suddenly become the leader of so many people?
Lü Shu seemed to have seen through his thoughts. "Before we left, didn't you advise me to go to Wu Weijun?"
"And then?"
"And then I recruited Wu Weijun!" Lü Shu said.
"Negative emotion points from Zhang Weiyu, + 666!"
