Xia Duo feels that he should find a full-time blacksmith for the territory, so that he can make whatever he needs at any time. Wouldn't it be beautiful?
But when Shado and Arman took charge of recruiting blacksmiths, the other party shook his head repeatedly and said that it was almost impossible for him to recruit any extra blacksmiths.
"Arman is in charge. Apart from blacksmiths, any other craftsmen are also in urgent need of the territory. Please pay more attention to this aspect."
"Yes." Arman finally found it difficult to refuse Sha Duo's request and agreed. However, Xia Duo also knows that there is a shortage of craftsmen everywhere, and he does not expect to find people with superb skills. He is willing to train those who are barely able to work, go to school, or have talent.
After a conversation and finalizing all the details, Xia Duo returned to the Mage Tower and prepared to spend the night in the library. More than ten people would not be able to come this time, so they still needed to make full use of it.
...The next morning, Xia Duo took the
The "Lucky Owen" returned to the Bactrian Territory. It seemed that he felt the anxiety of the lord Darao. Owen ordered the crew to row with all their strength without stopping for a moment.
It was just after noon,
The "Lucky Owen" stopped steadily near the Liaodui Point. After four and a half years, Xia Duo felt very complicated when he set foot on the land of Daxia Territory again.
Here, in this start-up territory with almost nothing, he finally felt at home. Although he has been trying hard to integrate into this magical world, he has always felt a sense of alienation from the bottom of his heart. Only now does he realize that a wandering wanderer always needs to take root.
As for Daxia Territory, he will take root here. No matter what the future holds, this is his home now. For a moment, Xia Duo was in high spirits. Various thoughts flashed back and forth in his mind about how to manage his three-thirds of land. It was not until Leiden came to invite him to witness the opening of the altar that he was brought back. Reality.
"Priest Leiden, the altar was built so quickly?" Chateau asked curiously. He thought it would take at least twelve and a half months to build this thing, but he didn't expect it to be so fast. Even if it was made of wood, it wouldn't necessarily be so fast!
While leading Sha Duo to the altar, Leiden explained to Sha Duo: "Sir, the most important thing about the altar is regulation and holy power. If it is not considered to be used for a long time, it can be repaired without even half a day." The two of them said. One after another, people passed through a patchwork of temporary housing, and further south there was a
The "construction site" was open, and dozens of people were distributed along the east-west line and pushed southward. Shrubs and miscellaneous trees were knocked down one after another, and even weeds could not escape the influence of these territorial residents.
"Poison Hand", all plants higher than ankles were cleared away. And with so many people working together, even if they lack tools, they will be able to
The "battle line" advanced nearly a hundred meters south. As for the slaves, because their bodies have not yet recovered, Qiaoqi and Layton discussed and arranged for them to do some light work in the back, but they could not be left idle.
Moreover, they have one more task than ordinary citizens, which is to recite the "Lord's Quotations" written by Xia Duo. There are too few people now, and it is still too early to talk about the law.
At present, some regulations are still announced in the form of quotations, mostly codes of conduct. The style is different from other places, but it is not difficult to do.
Just use this method to strengthen their obedience. As for the ordinary citizens, of course they cannot escape, but no coercive measures have been taken. After they see the transformation of the slaves, they will naturally take the initiative to learn.
After passing through the front line of logging, Xia Duo and Leiden had entered the jungle. After walking for nearly a hundred meters, Xia Duo saw a two-meter circular open space.
The weeds and humus on the ground have been cleared away, revealing dark brown soil with dense and blurred footprints. When Xia Duo stepped on it, he didn't feel soft. It had obviously been stepped on.
There is a layer of cobblestones about one meter in the middle, and above it is a half-meter-high circular altar made of wood. A pit was dug in the center, and a stone bowl was placed in it.
The marks were fresh, as if they had been chiseled out recently. The upper surface of the wooden altar, that is, around the stone bowl, is engraved with the holy symbol of the Lord of Radiance - the sun with a face - in the east and west directions.
This is probably the simplicity of Nese people.
"Father Sun"! The altar was engraved with the words "Proverbs" and some patterns of unknown meaning.
At this time, in Sha Duo's eyes, this so-called altar is just an ordinary object without any extraordinary power. Now it depends on what Leiden does.
If you are not curious, it is impossible. As a mage, just as an earthling, how could you not have any peeps?
The idea of "god".
"Let's begin." Sha Duo took a step back and signaled Leiden to start.
"Yes." Leiden responded, then stood on the east side of the altar, knelt down on one knee, raised the holy symbol (a magical weapon), and began to pray to the sun hanging above his head, slightly to the west.
At first, Sha Duo didn't feel anything, but as Leiden's voice got louder, a hazy light appeared around Leiden and spread unstoppably to the surroundings.
Xia Duo took another step back, but was still wrapped in this radiance. In this brilliance, Xia Duo felt the beauty of the order in the world.
From natural orders such as mountains and flowing water, the birth and death of elements, to humanistic orders such as kingdoms, classes, and self-regulation, as soon as the idea in Zheng's mind was born that everything in the world was in order, Xia Duo felt that it was once again glorious, so much so that he felt warm. Mind, like the sunshine in winter, not only warms the body, but also warms the heart.
But that's all. This light quickly converged, focusing on the holy symbol (magic weapon) in Leiden's hand, and finally projected onto the holy symbol (pattern) on the altar.
The Holy Emblem on the altar was open to all comers and absorbed all the brilliance. Then, in Xia Duo's eyes, an almost miraculous scene appeared - this simple wooden spliced altar slowly changed its material. It blends with the stone bowl above and becomes a material that is neither gold nor wood nor stone.
In the magical vision, the altar was already filled with dazzling sacred light, and an invisible aura spread out, covering the two meters surrounding the altar.
In this area, countless insects crawled out of the ground and fled away as if fleeing for their lives. Chateau was sighing at the wonder of the altar. Leiden, who was kneeling on the ground over there, could no longer hold himself up. He collapsed on the ground and began to cry. At the same time, he murmured: "My lord, You are the Lord of Light and the Lord of Order.”
"Laiden? Leiden, are you okay?" Sha Duo stepped forward and patted Leiden on the shoulder, but he didn't expect that Leiden immediately hugged his leg.
"Lord, I saw it, I saw it. My lord showed me His way. My Lord, your way will definitely run on the earth!" Then Leiden described to Shado sentence by sentence what he had done in the past. What I saw in the brilliance was the scene of strict laws, good government and harmonious people in the Great Xia Kingdom.
Not only that, he also vividly talked about a "Tax Law" that collects taxes in stages according to the amount of income, and a "Traffic Law" that even stipulates that you must try to proceed on the right side of the road.
"Lord, please advance on the right side, so there will be no conflicts over the road." Seeing Leiden's enthusiastic look, Sha Duo thought to himself, there is no road, so why are you thinking about the "Traffic Law"!
However, Leiden was able to see the future scene of the Great Xia Territory from the appearance of the Lord of Glory, as well as traffic laws and tax laws. This is indeed what Xia Duo might do.
Does God really have the power of foreknowledge? Then why didn't he, as a lord, see it? Or can only believers see it?
Or is it just based on personal inference?
