Hu Liang lives in the West Sea. He is a good friend of Mr. Ruoshi and Mr. Hanman. His disciple is called Yang Yan.
He was invited by the Queen Mother of the West to participate in the White Jade Day Festival. The Queen Mother of the West had the custom of sacrificing three cows to the Sun God, and they also had a festival to sacrifice Baiyu.
During the time of the Yellow Emperor, the Queen Mother of the West went to the palace to present a white jade ring.
In the early years of Emperor Yao, Yao waded through quicksand and came to Dushan to meet the Queen Mother of the West, who presented her with a white jade ring.
Later, during the reign of Emperor Shun, in the ninth year of Emperor Shun's reign, the Queen Mother of the West came to court again. She still presented the white jade ring, but this time the price was increased to five pieces.
I don’t know why, but this time the tribute to Emperor Shun was increased.
Therefore, the white jade ring is not only a famous local product for the Queen Mother of the West, but also a totem belief and spiritual sacrifice.
For Marquis Xuan, Hu Liang was exactly the character Azai had mentioned.
"It is said that there is a man named Hu Liang in the West Sea. He can cure throat diseases."
Marquis Xuan has always been worried about her voice. This hoarse voice makes it difficult to sing the most perfect ballads. She is the one who will inherit the position of the next Queen Mother of the West. If she can't even sing the ballads well, she will most likely be expelled. Others are criticizing...
Although political ability is the first requirement, winning people's hearts and worshiping ancestors with songs are also irreplaceable important things. After all, in this era, the only important things for the country are sacrifice and military affairs.
After Hu Liang came here, Marquis Xuan went to visit him and wanted to learn how to control his voice. During the conversation, the two accidentally learned that Mr. Han Man had once encountered a strange little wizard, and when " When the four strange words "National Geographic" appeared in Marquis Xuan's ears, she knew who this little wizard was.
It's so weird, the style of painting is so distorted that it doesn't belong to the naming method of the current era. Except for the stupid donkey breeder Azai, there will be no other person at all.
Although Hongchao also had brain problems, they were contagious and were not completely bad.
Hu Liang liked some of what Yu Zai said very much. Mr. Hanman told him that. Now in Xihai, a certain Azai with a bad brain is considered a famous figure. There are many wise men and women living near Xihai. , as well as the ancient gods, can be recognized by these people, to the ears of Marquis Tuan, it is like a green fire coming out of the ancestral grave, not even smoke.
Hu Liang felt that although Xuan Hou's voice was hoarse, it could be corrected, so under Xuan Hou's official apprenticeship, Hu Liang happily accepted this "singer seed".
"There was a little girl who sang well before the Queen Mother of the West. She wanted to be my teacher, but I declined. I just didn't expect you to be related to that person named Yuzai. Why, what is the relationship between you two?"
Hu Liang inquired about these things curiously, and Marquis Xuan was silent for a while, sorting out the context in his mind.
She knew that the reason why Huliang accepted her was related to Mr. Hanman, and Mr. Hanman and Azai were good friends, so it was just for the sake of his friend...
Or maybe it's some deeper relationship.
If you want to successfully become the priest of the Queen Mother of the West, and even truly become an irrevocable candidate for the next wizard, then you must make use of all the resources available to you.
Marquis Xuan pursed his lips, his mind a little confused, but after taking a few deep breaths, under Hu Liang's interested gaze, he said:
"I have a marriage agreement with him."
Although it was nonsense, when he said it, his mind was a little confused. Mr. Huliang squinted his eyes and let out a sweet and melodious laugh. It was so ethereal that it made the birds in the sky spin intoxicatedly.
"So that's it, that's it... Then you really have a good man."
Marquis Xuan didn't know what to say in response, so he could only say to himself, "Azai, I'll lend you my innocence"...
When I become the leader, we will leave...!
Fortunately, news came at this time. It seemed that the senior officials of the Western Queen Mother Kingdom were discussing some kind of meeting. What we could learn from the maid who summoned the messenger was that the Gonggong clan appeared in the area covered by the Western Queen Mother Kingdom and attacked a certain person. After plundering a village, they announced that they would attack the Republic of China.
The Republic of China collapsed, and the Republic of Wo was next.
At the same time, on this grand day when the Mother Kingdom of the West was preparing for sacrifices, a flash of fire appeared in the sea of clouds, snow and fog in the Qilian Mountains.
On the seventh day of this month, a hot wind blew between heaven and earth, melting all things.
A god of fire appears on the top of the Qilian Mountains.
That was Hui Lu, the ancient fire god. When a country encountered Rongfeng on the seventh day of the lunar month...
This country will perish.

In the south, the Yangtze River flows eastward. This first wave of floods lasted for a month and a half.
The disasters caused along the way were not serious, and the large flood control city also withstood the test and stood firm in the tide.
Summer is over. For the south, after the disappearance of the Houtian clan, all they have to wait for is the autumn harvest.
People in Hongzhou talked about the fact that the typhoon was dispersed before. Everyone knew who did it, but some people just lamented that they didn't expect Yuzai to be so powerful.
Nine years have passed, and many things have changed for the better, not for the worse.
As for Ruanzai, he had just been promoted to a major level. After updating to the latest version, he still had not adapted to it. He was still reluctant to fight against the Houtian clan. He had to rely on Chisongzi and his group to forcefully defy the will and defeat him. This big typhoon scattered them.
The atmosphere is getting warmer and everything is renewed.
Natural disasters have also been updated to version 2.0
Don't play if you don't like it.
Of course, Yu Zai also has his own response to natural disasters. In the past, the Houtian clan should come after the autumn harvest, but this year it came early. If you don't follow martial ethics, don't blame me for sneak attacks.
The air flow was broken up, and Yu Zai didn't care about it. Anyway, I've already done it. If you don't like it, just shave it again.
In addition to the autumn harvest, the work carried out in the spring has now also yielded results.
The main part of the large iron smelting plant is finally almost completed, and these people's construction speed is quite fast...
Although this place is completely incomparable to the large factories of later generations, it is undoubtedly a small wonder in this era. It took half a year to build the main body, followed by the placement of equipment. Huanzai had already deployed manpower and carried out the work. The casting of "steel filling equipment" can now be moved in and started as soon as the main body of the large iron smelting plant is built.
"But it is estimated that it will take more than two years to fully start construction, and there are still many surrounding construction facilities that need to be constructed. The overall completion time will be about two years."
People in the Handicraft Street received the news, and a large number of people were preparing to enter the factory for work. Those who had passed the examination were extremely happy.
The "new equipment" made of refractory bricks has long been placed in a fixed location. The craftsmen couldn't put it down these new furnaces. However, people also brought new quenching liquids. Some of the liquids were animals. of urine.
An unpleasant smell filled the backyard of the large ironworks, and buckets of animal urine and grease were placed there.
According to Yu Zai, instead of using water, it is first quenched in animal urine with a high cooling rate, and then quenched in animal fat with a low cooling rate. This avoids the limitations of simply using one kind of liquid for quenching, and a very good solution can be obtained. Awesome steel.
The craftsmen were a little skeptical.
It turns out that manure can fertilize fields and urine can also make steel?
The times are really developing rapidly.
Because of the strong smell, many animals always feel strange when passing by this area. After all, animal urine is an important indicator of territory, but the smell here makes them a little heady.
When Yu Zai asked people to bring the "real money" for storage, he looked up at the sky.
"It's already autumn, but it's still a little hot..."
For no reason, even the Sun God felt a little dull...
