Lou Xiaoyi smiled. "If you have any ideas, you can bring them up at the committee. There's no need to wait for me!"
The bamboo hat shook. "There's no need to wait for you to make a decision! But when it's time to do it, you can't be absent! Otherwise, the Dao Protector Association is filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers. We don't have absolute confidence in winning!
Especially among them, there are far more people with Immortal Seeds than on our side. This is also a fact! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. "Let's not do it first. Let's spread the news first and let everyone know that there's a way to solve the problem. Naturally, there will be fewer setbacks.
It's useless to do it early. After a few hundred years, there will be people who will forget the pain. Do you want to do it again?
It's best to set the time before the epoch changes, before the space collapses. You have to grasp the timing well! "
The two had a deep discussion about the separation of Heaven's Choice. Then, the marching monk joined in. They were once enemies, but now they were sitting together to discuss important matters. Cultivation was such a wonderful thing. In front of the Great Dao, there was nothing that couldn't be abandoned!
These people might be the most troublesome enemies, but under the same goal, they were the most resolute like-minded people! After the separation of Heaven's Choice was completed, they would return to being enemies.
It looked like a casual child playing house, but in essence, they were the most resolute group of half-immortals. They had their own unchanging ideals and were willing to put in the greatest effort to achieve it!
They were all monks, but Handsfree, who had a good relationship with him, stood on the side of the Heaven Protector Association. There were also many of his former friends!
Lou Xiaoyi didn't treat them as enemies. Under the Great Dao, it was normal to have different directions. This was the internal motivation for the universe's cultivation world to correct itself. It was a good thing!
The marching monk proposed a very important measure. "I think that from now on, we should encourage the urbanization of the mortal world in the Heaven's Choice continent! This is very important for the future casualties of Heaven's Choice's separation! "
Lou Xiaoyi raised his head. "Is it better to distribute the population in the countryside? Or is it better to urbanize? Do you have an accurate deduction? "
Marching Monk was already prepared. Since he had joined the team, he was not willing to fall behind. This was the basic quality of a person who took on the role of a leader! If there was no freak like Lou Xiaoyi, this kind of major event would have been handled by Qing Xuan's top Half Immortals like the military monk wearing a bamboo hat. However, under the halo of Lou Xiaoyi, they were reduced to supporting roles.
"There's no accurate deduction! That's because we don't even know which crack to start from! There was no such model!
Spreading out in the countryside had its benefits. If they were scattered enough, they wouldn't be wiped out all at once!
Gathering in a city has its advantages. It can greatly reduce the number of casualties, as long as we are accurate enough!
But that's not the key point. The situation with Heaven's Choice is that there are too many rural villages and towns scattered around. I've roughly calculated that 80% of the mortals live in scattered areas. This is very dangerous! "
The marching monk's face was grim. "The worst consequence of dispersing is that you won't listen to orders, and you won't leave even if you are beaten to death!
Before the real separation, it is impossible for us to make them leave their homes and their spiritual and material sustenance with a single order!
Therefore, instead of making things difficult, it's better to make preparations early! No matter what means we use, good or bad, crooked or evil, it's fine!
Drive them to the city! Only after living in the city for several generations and dozens of generations will they have the obedience and discipline unique to the city people! We can also forcefully move them!
We can't do this by ourselves. We need the strong support of the local cultivators of Heaven's Choice and hundreds of years of perseverance!
As long as we reduce the population of the villages and towns to less than 50%, the number of casualties caused by our separation can be reduced by an order of magnitude! "
The man wearing a bamboo hat nodded repeatedly. "In the short term, this is an inhumane measure, but in the long term, it's very useful! When doing big things, we can't be soft-hearted! Even if the process is painful, it's worth it! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed in his heart. They were all outstanding people!
To reduce the casualties of Heaven's Choice, the separation method was only one aspect. The control of the mortals was equally important! If the mortals could stay in the safest area during the separation, it would undoubtedly greatly reduce the casualty rate. However, for a region with hundreds of billions of people, it was extremely difficult!
They could only use methods! Perhaps in the eyes of the so-called righteous people, it was a very cruel and inhumane method!
Lou Xiaoyi was not an old-fashioned person, nor was he a moralist. In fact, he was the same type of person as these two people. In order to achieve their goals, they would do anything!
Of course, the cruelty in the short term was for the benevolence in the long term. As the initiator of the separation of Heaven's Choice, he had to bear this responsibility.
"I agree with this suggestion! In the timeline, we still have at least 500 years! For the mortals, it's at least dozens of generations. We can definitely make it in time. However, have you thought about how to make the mortals willingly gather in the city? And not drive them away by force?
The land is there, and there has to be someone to cultivate it. There has to be food to fill the stomachs of the people! We can't all go to the city and then drink the northwest wind together, right? "
The marching monk and the bamboo hat frowned. The direction of their thoughts was correct, but they lacked a strategy for the specific implementation! What Lou Xiaoyi said was the most realistic problem! How to gather the mortals to the city was not something that could be done with just a few words!
They could only look at Lou Xiaoyi.
Lou Xiaoyi smiled. "There's a small world called Qingqiu! The people living there are fox people. The urbanization of their world is very concentrated! If you are interested, you can go and take a look. It will be very enlightening and won't take up much time!
In my opinion, there are only two reasons why they can do this!
First, their farming methods are advanced! They have integrated cultivation methods into all aspects of farming. The result is that an ordinary person can do the work of ten people! There is no need for so many people to work in the countryside. The flow of people will naturally flow to the city. There is no need for us to force them. Naturally, they will know how to live a better life.
Second, commercialization! Highly developed businesses can attract young people to the city, just like moths to a flame!
If we can use this model as a reference, it is not impossible to achieve the urbanization of Heaven's Choice. The key is whether we have the perseverance and willpower to do so.
This was not the life and death of a fierce wind or a raging fire, but the subtle influence of moistening things silently! If we succeed, not only will it reduce the casualties of Heaven's Choice, it will also have a profound impact on the mortals' way of life.
In my opinion, the latter impact is even greater than the merit of saving billions of people! "
The marching monk and the bamboo hat looked at each other. "Although we can't make a decision now, we can go to Qingqiu to take a look …"
