With a thought in Zhao Qi's mind, the Conferred Gods List disappeared in his hand, but at this time he could already feel the connection between himself and the Conferred Gods List. Next time, he would no longer need to use such a troublesome ritual to replace the Conferred Gods List.
The fox demon obviously hadn't reacted too well yet. He looked down at his new appearance in shock, and then felt a little more about the surroundings.
Even though he is in the mountains and forests at the moment, he can feel that the surrounding mountains for dozens of miles, and even every plant and tree among them, are all innately known to him.
"From today on, you are no longer a fox demon, but the Lord Yishan who has the status of a true god."
At this moment, Zhao Qi's voice came again, bringing the fox demon back to his senses.
"From now on, the mountains, rivers and cities in this area must be protected by gods. You must abide by your godhead and live up to your position, otherwise..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the aura around Zhao Qi suddenly dispersed, and a brilliant force of heaven fell on the fox demon, making it tremble all over.
Zhao Qi could make this fox demon become a god, and naturally he could also deprive him of his divine status and make him irreversible.
Therefore, before Zhao Qi could finish speaking, the mountain god of Yishan immediately knelt down with his fists in his hands and kowtowed:
"Kowtow to Taizu, the little god will obey Taizu's teachings!"
Now that the fox demon has become a righteous god, both his ability and state of mind have improved qualitatively.
He is also the first righteous god in the world today. Therefore, although Zhao Qi is not on the list of gods, he is still called Taizu by the mountain god.
Zhao Qi will be the ancestor of the gods, so he deserves it. Without him, there would be no gods in this world.
"Go ahead and do what you have to do..."
Zhao Qi fell from the void and waved to the mountain god. As a golden light flashed by, the figure of the Yishan God disappeared from the altar.
The moment he became a mountain god, the fox demon had already integrated with the Yishan realm.
In the land of mountains, it seems to disappear, but it is everywhere.
As long as there is a disaster here, as a mountain god, he can appear at a thought.
After doing all this, Zhao Qi breathed a deep sigh of relief. After all, this was also his first time to become a god, so it was a bit stressful after all.
"The ceremony is over, let's see off the guests with a startling gong!"
After Zhao Qiqiao shouted this, an old man immediately struck the gong in his hand.
The ceremony ends with the sound of gongs, which is a rule passed down from generation to generation in Nuo opera.
When Zhao Qi stepped down from the altar, Lake and others just returned like a dream, and then walked over quickly.
"Zhao...Mr. Zhao..."
Lake, who has always been calm, rarely loses his composure now. One can imagine how much shock this scene just caused to him, the intelligence leader.
"Director Lei, have I proven what I said before?"
Facing Zhao Qi's inquiry, Reike nodded in shock. What are you still questioning now? If you question it again, you’d be a fool!
"I never thought that one day I would see such a scene."
Several other people also wiped the sweat from their foreheads. Just now, when Zhao Qixu stood in mid-air, holding the God's Tablet, the pressure emanating from his body made several people breathless.
Now Zhao Qi has proved what he said before through practical actions and dispelled all doubts in everyone's mind.
However, in Zhao Qi's view, the matter is far from over here, firstly because the matter of the first apotheosis has not been completely resolved, and secondly because the meaning of this time's apotheosis is not that simple.
"Director Lei, now that the fox demon has been enthroned as a righteous god, and after entering the divine position, there is no other way to practice except to be worshiped by others and practice with merit.
Therefore, it is necessary to build a mountain temple here as soon as possible, with the tablet of Qingfuzhengshen on it and the title of Yishanzunshen inside.
Although the power of God has nothing to do with the incense, it represents the prosperity of faith. The stronger the incense, the more belief in the righteous god, and the stronger the cause and effect. "
Although Lake knew little about it and was confused, he still hurriedly agreed:
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, I will implement this matter immediately. It's just..."
Reike looked at the troupe people not far away with some worry, and lowered his voice and said:
“The public cannot know what happened today yet, and it will take some time for our officials to prepare.
But if they tell what happened today after they leave, it will be difficult for us to control public opinion. "
What Lake didn't expect was that Zhao Qi smiled and shook his head, then pointed to the people in the troupe not far away and said:
"Don't worry, look at them..."
Lake and the others looked in the direction they were pointing in confusion, and saw that after the old men slowly took off their masks, their eyes were actually covered with a red cloth.
“There are many rules in opera, and there is a saying that the opera must be finished before it starts.
The same is true for Nuo opera. Except for some specially performed Nuo operas, the inheritors of Nuo opera who inherit the ancient methods in an orthodox manner cover their eyes with red cloth when the opera starts, so they are not surprised or disturbed.
This kind of red cloth can only barely allow them to see their feet clearly, but cannot pay attention to anything else.
Therefore, they don't know what happened. "
After hearing this, Lake once again felt the depth and breadth of the inheritance.
Everything that happens here in this short period of time is destined to change Lake and others' view of the world.
After the people in the troupe learned that the incident was over and they no longer needed to sing, they began to pack their things and put them back into the boxes.
Then everyone held three sticks of incense and bowed in all directions, and then put talismans on the box.
This is the case in this industry. On the day of opening the box, one needs to worship heaven, and on the day of sealing the box, one needs to worship the four directions.
The rules passed down from ancient times are rare in today's impetuous era for people to still abide by them.
Although these opera singers were blindfolded, they completely heard all the sounds they just made, including what Zhao Qi said when he conferred the title of God.
It would be a lie to say that they were not curious, but no one asked about what happened just now.
When the female character changed into her daily clothes again and came in front of everyone, her face was still covered by red gauze, but the look in her eyes when she looked at Zhao Qi seemed a little complicated for some reason, with some inexplicable emotions.
Zhao Qi noticed this look, but before he could ask, the heroine looked away vaguely.
Maybe she also had a lot of questions to ask, but due to the rules she had always followed, the heroine didn't say anything in the end. She just followed her father and left Yishan under the escort of soldiers.
After the soldiers dismantled the altar and restored everything here to its original state, it was already dark.
Lake invited Zhao Qi to return to the State Secretariat together, while the others returned to their respective departments temporarily.
But before leaving, everyone had reached a consensus that nothing that happened in Yishan last night would be mentioned to anyone else.
Lake also said that at least until he has integrated all the information and reported it to the superiors, the attitude of the superiors will determine how they will handle the matter in the future.
Zhang Zhenshan had been watching Zhao Qi go down the mountain. He watched the group of people disappear at the end of the mountain road, but he still stood there in a daze.
No one knew what he was thinking, but what happened yesterday night was destined to change the future of many people.
After returning to the State Secretariat, Zhao Qi was placed in a lounge.
There is a simple single bed in the lounge, as well as some necessary daily necessities.
The State Secretariat is a 24-hour response unit, so there are many rooms reserved for investigators to rest.
When Zhao Qi was sitting alone in the room, he finally had time to think about what to do next.
Now, he has gained the trust of the director of the Wujun State Secret Service, and on the way back, Reike also said that he would sort out these things as soon as possible and report them to the superiors!
I believe it won’t be long before the top officials will know of their existence, which will facilitate the next planning and arrangement: creating corresponding departments and agencies and building a new system.
Becoming a god in this world and opening a new era has completed the crucial first step. The gears of human destiny have begun to turn quietly at this moment...
