Chapter 460: Such a handsome god seems unseemly at first glance! [Requesting Monthly Ticket]
In a small town near Yuzhou, Zhang Fei was patrolling on horseback.
Having just captured this place effortlessly, he found that most of the residents were Han Chinese, and only a few were herdsmen.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the army, both herdsmen and Han people were very enthusiastic. Not only did they run around cheering and lining up to welcome them, they even took the initiative to take out the food at home to work for the army.
The people in Qilin Village who were originally preparing to go on a killing spree were a little unresponsive.
How did the wonderful warm-hearted activity turn into welcoming the King?
Since the people cooperated, Zhang Fei took advantage of the situation and held a grievance meeting for the whole town. Based on everyone's feedback, he dug out a few bullies and dealt with all the unjust, false and wrong cases in the town in recent years.
In the original work of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", although Zhang Fei is a rough guy, he has been a prefect, managed a place, and can handle some cases without any problem.
By handling these cases, he also understood the general situation of this small town.
This is a town where farming and nomadic people live together. This kind of place can be seen everywhere in Yuzhou. Many herdsmen can speak Chinese, write Chinese characters, and perform Chinese rituals, which is a typical sinicization of herdsmen.
In history, this situation was actually very common. When there were more Han people, the surrounding foreign races were Chineseized. When there were too many foreign races, the Han people would be alienated.
Almost all border passes in the past dynasties have been like this.
For example, Gao Huan, the famous pretty boy from the Southern and Northern Dynasties, who single-handedly created the Northern Qi Dynasty, is a typical Han Chinese Xianbei, and even gave himself a Xianbei name after He Liuhun.
After Zhang Fei held a grievance meeting, he executed several bullies, and then re-appointed the officials here in the name of General Han Zhengbei. Then he moved out the statue of Zhang Daoling and led the whole town to swear an oath in front of the statue. .
Time is urgent, and it is impossible to tell whether the people here are sincere or fake, so we can only use the power of gods to change the people's beliefs.
When everyone made the oath, Zhang Daoling appeared from the sky and brought blessings to everyone.
Many sick and frostbitten people began to improve under the glow of the glow.
Such a miracle made the herdsmen who were still hesitant suddenly become devout. Not only did they kowtow repeatedly, they also hoped to invite Zhang Daoling's statue to worship at home every day.
People are all realistic. In the past, when encountering disasters, they prayed desperately to the Immortal Heaven, but there was no response at all. However, for the gods in the Central Plains, worshiping them once was so efficacious that they did not have to sacrifice the few livestock at home. .
Everyone has a clear idea of what to choose.
Zhang Fei was not surprised by everyone's choice. When the people lamented that their health had improved, he thought it was Qiao Daoqing's credit:
"Isn't it very laborious for the Taoist priest to perform such a big illusion?"
< br>Qiao Daoqing bowed respectfully to the sky:
"This is not an illusion, this is Zhang Tianshi himself coming down to earth... I thought the gods here didn't care about it, but I didn't expect that he was always here."
After Zhang Daoling appeared, he melted the snow around the town, and then it turned into a golden light and disappeared into the sky.
"General Qi, can we build a temple here to commemorate Zhang Tianshi's appearance?"
A respected old man came over with a cane and, on behalf of the people in the town, requested that a temple be built to commemorate Tianshi. The teacher shows his sage.
Zhang Fei waved his hand and said:
"Yes, but not too extravagant. The gods in the Central Plains are considerate of the people. They don't need to build gold bodies or pay for the land. They only need to worship sincerely. That’s it.”
Hearing this, the people in the town cheered again, and Qiao Daoqing also took the initiative to help them build the temple.
High in the sky, Master Xuandu saw this scene, turned his face and looked at Ksitigarbha and said:
"Buddhism has gone too far in this regard."
Ksitigarbha saluted quickly and said :
"The young monk will report to the Buddha, change some of the teachings of human beliefs, clean out the followers of the fly camp, and restore the purity of Buddhism."
Zhen Yuanzi rushed to Zhang Daoling, who had just returned from the sainthood. ：
"Congratulations to fellow Taoist Zhang for adding a new temple blessed land. Such a miracle will definitely attract countless believers. Congratulations!"
Zhang Daoling quickly returned the gift:
"Zhenyuan Great Immortal Mi Great, even if it is a temple in Xiaodao, it must first worship the Empress... Daxian, can Xiaodao place your statue beside the statue of Empress?"
When Zhen Yuanzi heard this, he was overjoyed:
"Of course I am willing. Pindao wanted to mention it several times, and even secretly went to the Erxian Mountain statue to watch it. If fellow Taoist Zhang can make it happen, Pindao is willing to give three ginseng fruits!"
Before, I had always been like a guest, and only participated in dinner parties and fights.
Now you can have your own statue erected in the temple of Nuwa Empress. This not only greatly increases the collection of belief power, but also represents that you have become one of the empress's side.
He was overjoyed with joy. The Great Master Xuandu on the side was a little impatient:
"Master Zhang Tian, where am I?"
Although Zhen Yuanzi's followers are not There are many, but at least there is a site called Wuzhuang Temple. Our Xuandu has nothing, and even the "Tao Jing" is just a symbol.
If you can take this opportunity to have your own statue in Nuwa Temple, it will definitely be a great thing.
Besides, we are also the sons of Empress Nuwa, and we were among the first to be pinched. Now, it is only natural that we stand beside our mother!
Zhang Daoling waved the fly whisk with a smile, and a statue of a god holding a Tai Chi diagram and a black and yellow exquisite tower of heaven and earth on his head immediately appeared next to him:
"What do you think, Brother Dao?"
Xuandu looked around and made his request:
"Can you look a little younger? This bald forehead is almost uninteresting."
In the description of "The Romance of the Gods", Master Xuandu is a Taoist priest with a shiny forehead, as if he is suffering from a hair loss crisis.
However, in the book world, every time he appears, he looks in his thirties, with thick black hair.
Nowadays, if you want to erect a statue of a god, you must pay attention to the image. After all, this represents the image in the minds of believers.
Zhang Daoling did not expect that this creature that had existed for hundreds of millions of years would actually care about this, so he swung his whisk and changed the age of the statue to a younger one. It was probably less than thirty years old. The jade tree was in the wind, and the fairy spirit was floating .
Master Xuandu made the final decision:
“Okay, this is the image!”
After Zhang Daoling was confirmed, he quickly established the Nuwa Palace in Chaoge City in the God World and the Five Pecks of Rice Sect in the Three Kingdoms World. Statues of Zhen Yuanzi and Master Xuandu have quietly appeared in places such as the General Altar, Erxian Mountain in Water Margin and Nuwa Temple in Zhending Mansion.
But it is different from what Xuandu imagined. When people go to worship gods, they first worship the empress and the saint, and then worship Zhang Daoling. When they find two more statues, they will subconsciously choose Zhen Yuanzi. , instead of the handsome Xuandu.
“You are so young, you look like a newcomer, and you are not as safe as the old gods.”
"Yes, yes, worshiping gods is the same as seeing a doctor. The young doctor is not very good at first glance, but he is still reliable for his age."
"Even if he is young, he is still so handsome. He is not a serious god."< br>
"Maybe it's for those young women to worship, let's bid farewell to other gods."
"..."
Listening to these discussions, Xuandu wished he was an old man Vomiting blood.
Don't look at my appearance, haven't you seen the black and yellow exquisite tower above my head? Didn't you see the Tai Chi diagram in my hand?
Why do people like to judge people by their appearance so much?
Looking at the constant flow of incense in front of Zhen Yuanzi, and looking at the deserted appearance in front of him, Xuandu wished he could change the statue back to a bald one on the spot.
I always felt old-fashioned in the past, but now I realize that baldness is what adults look like!
The accident in Nuwa Temple attracted Liu Bei. He respectfully offered incense to the two new gods. Only after looking at the statues did he know that they were the Great Immortal Zhenyuan and the Great Master Xuandu.
After offering incense and candles, Fan Rui, who temporarily served as a temple blessing, asked:
"Uncle Huang, is this Zhen Yuanzi the ancestor of the earthly immortals who took away Sun Wukong with one sleeve?"
>"Yes, the last time my second and third brothers and I found the Jiutian Xuannv Temple and scolded Xuannv for causing harm to the world, it was this great immortal who took action and sent us to Qilin Village."
The three brothers hugged each other at that time. Determined to die, even if he died, he would reprimand Xuannv on the spot and speak out for the world.
The three brothers cursed each other hard, and Laoguan even demolished the Xuannv Temple, but in the end they were able to escape and returned to Qilin Village safe and sound.
Later, Liu Bei found out that Immortal Zhenyuan had taken action, and the empress was watching silently.
"Now that Zhenyuan Immortal has appeared in our temple, does it mean that Sun Wukong is coming soon?"
Liu Bei thought for a moment and said:
"Logically speaking, it should be The world of Journey to the West is about to open, but it’s hard to say when Sun Wukong will come... But Li Shimin can talk to the Tang King Li Shimin in Journey to the West. "
The origin of the story of Journey to the West is the Dragon King of Jinghe. In order to make a bet with Yuan Shoucheng, he secretly changed the rainfall, so Wei Zheng beheaded him. Before the death of the Dragon King, he begged the palace, and Li Shimin agreed. As a result, Wei Zheng killed the Dragon King in his dream. The Dragon King persisted and attracted Qin Qiong and Wei Chigong to guard the gate. However, Li Shimin was too worried and finally went to the underworld. One day trip.
Li Shimin saw many ghosts who could not be reincarnated, triggering a series of adventures. During this period, he met Cui Jue, the chief judge in charge of the book of life and death. Lao Cui also gave him twenty years of life.
After returning from the underworld, Li Shimin convened a land and water conference, which led to the plot of Xuanzang opening a forum to lecture and Guanyin descending to earth for enlightenment.
Liu Bei said:
"According to my guess, the time to open the world in the book should be before setting off to learn the scriptures, and the chaos in the Heavenly Palace has passed. Otherwise, it would only take five hundred years to suppress Sun Wukong. Things have changed a lot here.”
After leaving the Nuwa Temple, Liu Bei went to the Jimin Temple opposite to check out the opening of the porridge shed. When he saw several beggars under ten years old queuing up to receive porridge, Liu Bei frowned and asked:
"Don't all school-age children go to Fengming Academy? What's going on with these children?"
The Zhike in charge of external affairs in the temple said:
"It's Dingzhou next door who came here. Yes, the heavy snow has made life difficult for the people there. Rice is priced at one price a day. Many people can't make ends meet, so they fled to our side."
After hearing this, Liu Bei said:
"When they are full, they will be sent to Fengming Academy."
"According to the order!"
Now Fengming Academy has taken in two to three hundred beggars. Everyone wears new clothes and goes to Fengming Academy every day. Having hot meals and learning all kinds of knowledge from Wen Huanzhang was like falling into a honeypot.
When many children grow up, they put on full clothes for the first time, have shoes for the first time, take a bath for the first time, sit at the dining table for the first time, and eat and drink slowly like a human being. .
No need to fight, no need to rob, no need to worry about being bullied by adult beggars, and no need to worry about being deceived by a nanny into working as a prostitute in a rich family or as a turtle in a brothel.
They don’t know what happiness is, but they know that their current living conditions are happier than happiness.
Liu Bei patrolled around, rode out of the city, and came to the weapons workshop outside the city.
Nowadays, this place has changed a lot. All kinds of cross-era equipment are dazzling. The emergence of large stamping machines has made the manufacturing of armor easier.
There is no need to thread the armor pieces together with hemp rope or silk thread, and there is no need to constantly remove the finished armor and replace the ropes.
The huge air hammer fell down, and an ordinary steel plate suddenly turned into a breastplate.
After several parts are fastened together with buckles, a pair of plate armor that is lightweight, durable and easy to maintain is completed.
Compared with infantry armor, plate armor's protection is slightly insufficient, but it is more lightweight. Putting on plate armor, soldiers can still have the strength to kill the enemy even if they have to march ten kilometers.
But if you switch to infantry armor, a ten-kilometer rapid march will be life-threatening.
No, it is possible that halfway through, the soldiers would collapse on the road, without any strength left.
Seeing Liu Bei, Deng Fei, the director of the weapons workshop, quickly came over:
"Uncle Emperor, we are going to build a set of armor for General Zilong, is that okay?"
Everyone in the weapons shop was very happy when they heard that Zhao Yun was coming.
But Liu Bei did not agree:
"Zilong will stay in the real world for a period of time. There is a blacksmith there who is proficient in armor and weapons. If I am not wrong, sir, I will let the blacksmith Don’t worry about making a new set of armor equipment for Zilong.”
The products produced by Zhao Dahu must be high-quality. This is a fact recognized by military commanders in several worlds.
Liu Bei felt that instead of letting the weapons workshop spend time on this kind of thing, it would be better to produce more sets of armor for the soldiers, which would better help Zilong.
"How is the production of armored weapons?"
Deng Fei replied:
"Now we have a three-shift system, where people and machines do not rest. We have built More than 2,000 sets of plate armor, more than 3,000 sets of various bows and crossbows, more than 5,000 various swords, shields, spears and other weapons, more than 50,000 arrows, and more than 5,000 special arrowheads were produced.”
Hearing these numbers, Liu Bei said:
"These supplies are not enough for a big war...continue production, and go to nearby state capitals to exchange for armor and weapons. Be sure to stock up and be prepared."
The Three Kingdoms were afraid of poverty at that time, so Liu Bei Now we are working hard to prepare supplies.
After Deng Fei accepted the order, Liu Bei returned to Zhending City and ordered the Intelligence Department to publicize Zhending in nearby state capitals so that people who could not survive would come to seek refuge.
Although most people feel that it is hard to leave their homeland, as long as a small number of people can come, it will greatly supplement human resources.
Liu Bei also ordered Li Ying, who was in charge of money and grain, to purchase more grain, even if the price was high, and he must not be stingy.
While he was busy here, Li Yu was telling Yue Fei in the real world:
"After finishing the business in the restaurant, hurry to Zhending Mansion. Once Xuande's charm is revealed, maybe countless people will defect to him. , don’t run out of food then.”
“Don’t worry, sir, I’ll be back in two days.”
The two were chatting, and Li Shimin had his little hands behind his back, looking unhappy. Came to the study:
“Sir, I was scolded again!”
Li Yu asked with a smile:
"What's wrong?"
"Dad said that I just run around like a wild child every day and tried to beat me. My brother immediately fanned the flames. , said angrily that I was young and it was normal for me to be playful. If I wanted to hit him, I would hit him. It was because he, the older brother, didn’t take care of me... My dad was just trying to scare me, but after hearing this, he beat me hard. ”
Hey guys, why did Li Jiancheng become so drunk?
Yue Fei advised Li Shimin like a big brother:
"There's nothing going on over there lately, so don't go out for the time being... Has the wheat harvest been good?"
"It's been a good harvest, Wang Jun, but Uncle Wang. They were so excited that they burst into tears. They never thought about the harvest of food." The output can be so high, we plan to raise some piglets in the village, and we will also engage in ecological planting in the future.”
The excess grain will be fed to chickens and pigs, and the pig manure and chicken manure will be used to grow fruit trees or vegetables. People here will be more energetic after eating vegetables and fruits.
Li Yu remembered that the little guy had to leave a set of hydrological data and survey equipment a few days ago:
“Can a hydropower station be built?”
"Yes, the flow is not small, enough to build a micro-hydropower station... When we take Taiyuan, we will block the Fen River and build a medium-sized hydropower station, which can drive several factories."
Li Shimin started from the refrigerator. I took a piece of milk brick from inside, sat cross-legged on the sofa and ate it happily.
Li Yu rushed to him and said:
"The world of Journey to the West is about to start. Do you have anything to say to Li Shimin over there?"
When Xiao Shimin heard this, he even I forgot to eat the milk bricks:
"So fast? Can you send his second brother Qin and Yuchi Gong over here, and I will provide double insurance!"
Good guy, are you planning to let the Dragon King of Jinghe kill yourself? ?
Li Yu said:
"It's not necessary. You have enough talents here. Let's go back and think about it. Record some videos or something. When the world opens, let the administrator Send it over."
Li Shimin asked curiously while eating milk bricks:
"Who is the administrator?"
"Your sworn brother - Tang Sanzang."
Hearing this name, Li Shimin became interested:
"When the time comes How about letting me write Sanzang’s customs clearance document?”
Yue Fei felt that this guy’s thinking was so out of the ordinary that he actually cared about the customs clearance document:
"What are you going to write?"
"Write this sentence: If you don't let him pass, I will lead my troops to fight him!"
This sentence reminded Li Yu of history When Xuanzang set out to study for scriptures, Xuanzang also met the leader of the Gaochang Kingdom. Not long after, the Gaochang Kingdom became an integral part of the Tang Dynasty and was destroyed.
Fortunately Xuanzang's footsteps were fast enough, otherwise he would not be able to keep up with the advancing speed of the national border.
While they were chatting, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Zhang Xiu and five thousand forward cavalry from the Three Kingdoms World had already arrived at Fukou Pass, preparing to capture the pass before Xun You's army arrived.
"General Zilong, if we take this pass, we will reach Shexian County. After passing Shexian County, we will reach the vast Jizhou Plain, and we can go to pick up your family. However, Gao Lan led his army to block it, and our army's attack failed repeatedly!"
Dong Zhao stirred up trouble as soon as we met, and the honest Zhao Yun was fooled:
"I have heard of Gao Lan's name for a long time, and he dared to stop the imperial army. Tomorrow morning, Yun will definitely ask him for advice. !”
