"In ancient times, there was the country of Ling, and the descendants took the country as their surname. Lingfu, one of Shun's seven friends, was the queen."
This passage was heard by Lingqing when he was a child.
After all, spiritual surnames are very rare, and having such a surname will make people want to find out.
Of course, the Ling family doesn't have any special treasures passed down.
In the end, I didn't find anything special, so it was just like it should be.
However, he was still very surprised to see the news about the spiritual country in the dungeon.
Moreover, among the eight hundred vassal states in the Zhou Dynasty, I have never heard of a Ling Kingdom.
Moreover, the period of Duke Wen of Teng had reached the end of the Warring States Period, and there were only a dozen vassal states left in the world.
In less than a hundred years, it will be time for the First Emperor to unify the six kingdoms.
How did a little-known country like this survive?
Although he had many doubts, Ling Qing still chose this identity.
After all, the king of a country sounds quite novel.
He had previously been a temple leader, a mountain god, and formed a sect with his brothers. .
I have never thought that I could one day become the king of a country.
Moreover, the other hundreds of disciples and officials from various countries may have any special gifts.
None of them would be as useful as his current techniques and magical weapons.
Furthermore, to put it another way, during the Warring States Period, class solidification was very serious.
An ordinary citizen is just a commoner throughout his life.
Even if you meet the monarch's appreciation, be promoted exceptionally, and become a minister of a country, it is already the limit.
Without the foundation and ability of San Jin and Tian Qi, he would never be able to become a monarch.
And the king of a country, even if he only has a small territory.
By virtue of his status as a king, he could also recruit wise men, set up schools, and recruit children from hundreds of families to serve him just like Teng Wengong.
Instead of serving others as a member of a hundred families.
Even as long as the strength is strong enough, it is not impossible to become an existence like the Seven Warring States.
When people like these Lingqing are just thinking about it.
However, the convenience of being a king is obviously better than other options.
After choosing his identity, Ling Qing appeared in a main hall as the scenery in front of him changed.
There was a table in front of him, with several scrolls of bamboo slips placed on it.
Below, there were more than ten people with high hats and noble belts sitting on their knees, and they were making a lot of noise in the hall.
At the same time, there were sounds of shouting and fighting coming from time to time.
It seems that he is now the king of Ling Kingdom, and these people in front of him are all the officials of Ling Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, the city gate can no longer hold up! Please..."
At this time, a man sitting in the front seat on the left with white hair and beard, wearing a robe and carrying a sword at his waist spoke.
"Please, Your Majesty, please consider the ancestral temple and make plans in advance."
After saying that, the man knelt on the ground and bowed deeply.
Before he could say anything, he saw a group of people below him lying on the ground to beg for help.
"Please make plans early!"
Ling Qing, who had just come to his senses, had not yet had time to check what special gifts this identity had.
Lao Cao was choked by the current news and couldn't help but feel stuck in his throat.
"???
what's the situation? "
Ling Qing was a little confused about the situation, but he had no time to care about them.
Now that he has entered the dungeon, Lingji and Wenjun are not with him.
The most important thing now is to find the two people first.
He held up a green cricket-shaped green clam with his backhand, with two rows of holes on its side and a pair of cicada wings on its back.
"Lingji, Wenjun, where are you now?"
As he spoke, the pair of cicada wings on the Green Clam Insect could not help but tremble slightly.
This green clam worm was specially refined by Lingqing before from crickets, green clam worms, love Gu and other alien insects. It is a communication Gu used to transmit information.
This Gu can sense the same species within thousands of miles and transmit words through the cicada's wings and holes in its body.
After a while, I heard the sound of inspiration coming from a hole in his body.
"Master, I am in a city called Lingqiu City.
It sounded like there was a fight going on outside. "
"Master, I am also in Lingqiu City."
At this time, Wenjun's voice came from another hole.
Lingqiu City is the capital of Ling Kingdom and the only city in Ling Kingdom.
"Okay, I'll send someone to pick you up."
After asking about the location of the two people, Ling Qing directly ordered the waiter beside him to send someone to greet them.
Then he turned a blind eye to the surprised expressions on the faces of the officials in the palace and asked.
"I wonder what your plans are?"
"I think..."
Lingqing kicked the ball back, and while they were noisy, he began to sort out the information about this identity.
Love reading books
Lingguo is indeed a feudal state owned by the descendants of Lingfu, one of Shun's Seven Friends.
But that was already the Xia Dynasty's business.
Not to mention the current Zhou Dynasty, there were no canonizations as early as the Shang Dynasty.
Although the country has a name, the land is no more than ten miles away and the people are no more than a thousand households. The king can only be called the "Spiritual King".
It is conceivable that the county masters in later generations were also called Wanhuhou.
Nowadays, it is just a vassal state affiliated with Zhu State, without title or title.
However, the politics of Zhu State was corrupt, and its rulers were corrupt and mediocre, so they kept all their food and treasure in the national treasury.
As a result, the young and strong citizens of the country were scattered in all directions, and the old and weak were thrown into the wilderness.
At this time, it was the middle and late Warring States period, and the annexation war was becoming increasingly fierce.
Qi and Lu in the north were both annexing surrounding countries and often raided their dying neighbor.
The ones attacking Lingguo now are more than a thousand Qi elites led by Qi's official Wei Jie.
But we only have 500 old, weak, sick and disabled people on our side.
If the city is defeated, what awaits Ling Qing is that he will become a prisoner and be escorted to Qi State.
Then maybe the king of Qi was kind and still gave him the title of empty king, and he became a prisoner and was treated as a collection of Qi's show of force.
Or they can be directly demoted to common people, no different from ordinary citizens.
Worse still, they will be killed directly.
You must know that since the Spring and Autumn Period, more than a thousand monarchs have been killed when their country was destroyed.
"I thought this identity was quite novel, but I didn't expect it to be King Zhou of Lutai, the Overlord of Wujiang River, and Chongzhen of Meishan Mountain.
This is the loess buried up to the throat - death is not far away. "
Lingqing thought about it and shook his head.
The most important thing is that he has been studying abroad before, and he encountered such difficulties just after he became the king.
After all, the third oldest person has been prestigious and enjoyed himself, but what about him?
Nothing!
However, the bad news doesn't stop there.
He sensed himself and realized that along with this identity came a force that blocked his cultivation.
At this time, all his magic power was still in his body, but he could not use it.
Fortunately, only his magic power was blocked, and some techniques that did not require magic power could still be used.
For example, the turbid evil spirit, the clerical authority of alienated plants, the human immortal body and the true body of all beasts refined by the Nine-Nine Form Refining Technique.
There are also foreign objects such as the Earthly Evil God General and various Gu insects, which can exert their strength only by commanding them.
Of course, this king is not without benefits, the most obvious one is a method called "Lingming Divine Canon".
It talks about how to use the power of a country to cultivate the true form of the Lingming God King.
This is the first time that he has received such a high-level gift along with his initial status.
It surprised him.
The ones before were all bits and pieces, and there was even nothing at all in Southern Xinjiang.
