The world of Nanming, above the river.
The clone who achieved the spiritual fetus of the divine stone, Guan Luoyang in black, sensed the news from the main body.
Although after the chaotic collision of the Lord God's light ball, it was no longer possible to locate these worlds with chaotic coordinates in the short term, let alone establish teleportation.
However, it is still possible for Guan Luoyang to achieve the immortal realm where the Taoist heart is immortal, to rest his mind on the sacred stone spiritual body, and to achieve a clone, and to maintain subtle spiritual connections across realms.
Although the changes in the main god's space were not small, Guan Luoyang's clone was still calm. After shaking his head slightly, he began to think carefully.
After a while, he took two steps on the river and caught up with the ship, turning his steps silently.
In the room where the Samsara team was, the doors and windows suddenly opened, the breeze swirled, and a figure appeared in front of them.
The four of them were startled at the same time, and were about to take action, but for some unknown reason, they were unable to use any means for a while, as if the gentle air blowing had restrained all their abilities.
Just like Tianke, a gust of breeze is obviously ordinary, but it can't be overcome.
"Don't be nervous. Something happened in the main god's space. I can't contact you stably for the time being. I'm just passing by. I see that your character is okay, so I'll let you know by the way."
Guan Luoyang waved his hand, the breeze dispersed, the doors and windows were all closed again, making only a slight sound, and the airflow in the room calmed down.
But the amount of information revealed in those few words he just said was truly more shocking than the storm and thunder.
The four reincarnations were stunned and didn't know why.
But after all, they are all four-stars, characters who have condensed their own spiritual light. They quickly reacted, at least on the surface, they were calm and accepted this fact.
The main god space has lost contact! !
Indeed, their team mission panel can also be summoned in the mission world to view mission details.
The panel flickering just now had never happened before, and now it couldn't be summoned directly.
Either this is an illusion that is so powerful and brilliant that his team cannot detect anything strange at all, or a high-end figure affects the mission panel, or the main god really loses contact.
There is actually no difference between these three situations for this reincarnation team.
If I have to say it, if the main god loses contact and a kind-hearted senior comes to give some advice, this situation is relatively the best one.
"It turns out to be a senior among the reincarnations."
Dongfang Jie said in a deep voice, holding his breath and clasping his fists, "Our team has not gone through many missions. Has this situation of losing contact with the main god happened before?"
"This kind of thing has happened before when the main god was beaten to death. What's there to say?"
Guan Luoyang shook his hand, "Haven't you heard that the light balls of our era were all made by the seniors of the war group themselves?"
Several people in the team were speechless for a moment.
Indeed, when they first became official reincarnators, they had vaguely heard similar rumors. There were many reincarnator bases and many light balls, all of which were made by the seniors.
But this kind of thing is usually just a background setting. So many reincarnations are fine. Who would have expected that people like us would actually encounter such a situation? !
Hua Ruoqing murmured: "It turns out that the eggs in our base were popped..."
"That's not the case. It's just that the light balls collided and temporarily malfunctioned."
Guan Luoyang said, "I'm here to remind you, because you don't have any bad qualities in your body. In our industry, you are considered to be of good character. If you are kept in the dark, you will think wildly in the future. Over time, you will go astray, and you will have some problems. pity."
"Now I'm telling you, you can choose to do the mission and wait until the Lord God contacts you again and recalculates the day of the mission for you. You can also choose to find a place you like and spend the rest of your life. After all, time flows at different speeds. Maybe you will die by the time you die. One day, the Lord God hasn’t finished repairing it yet.”
Hua Ruoqing and the other three couldn't help but think.
Without thinking, Dongfang Jie knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "Senior, we have little experience. When encountering such a thing, we are somewhat unsure about the future path. Can you please give us some advice?"
Guan Luoyang was already preparing to leave, and it was enough to warn the team not to cause any trouble because of the loss of contact, but because of Dongfang Jie's decisiveness, he had some thoughts in his mind.
"Are you sure you want my opinion?"
Dongfang Jie nodded affirmatively, and the other three also wanted to imitate him in saluting.
Liu Ziyan was even more impressed in his heart.
'You have to be the captain! '
'If I think about it carefully, I think that this was the way it was done in the end. The captain didn't use his brain at all. He used the same way and was faster than Ahua and I. That's awesome! '
The methods of this reincarnation senior are mysterious and unpredictable. If there is any disadvantage to them, they will not be able to resist it anyway.
If this reincarnation senior is really kind-hearted, if he takes the initiative, he may have unexpected opportunities.
Guan Luoyang flicked his fingers, and the air flow lifted them all up.
"You're not a feudal person, why do you do this kind of ritual?"
Guan Luoyang smiled and said, "If you want me to give you advice, then, I will be walking around in this world, how about you just follow me?"
"As the saying goes, the movement of heaven is strong. A gentleman should constantly strive for self-improvement and remain unchanged in response to changes. No matter what changes occur or what the future will bring, it is always right to increase his knowledge, continue to practice, and enrich himself."
What Guan Luoyang said is also the principle that all his entities and clones will follow after this incident.
Dongfang Jie's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Thank you, senior!"
"Stop senior, let's call each other by name."
Guan Luoyang simply sat down, exchanged names with them, got to know each other, and said, "I think this ship will arrive at a big city soon, so let's go to that city first. Your previous mission was What's coming?"
Although the background of the tasks issued by the Lord God will only be briefly introduced, the task standards can sometimes reveal a lot of important information.
The bespectacled young man Liu Ziyan said it exactly as it was.
They had just arrived in this mission world, and the information they obtained basically came from the part provided by the Lord God.
According to the mission prompts, the background of this world was once a conflict between the Zheng Ming Dynasty and the Jurchen Dynasty.
Fifty years ago, the Jurchen Dynasty rose up to attack. The armies of both sides fought fiercely on the Yangtze River for several months. Artillery fire roared, ships came and went, and the river was stained with blood.
In addition to the generals and officers of the army, strange people from all over the world also participated in the war. Some were recruited and invited, some took the opportunity to practice magic and hone their kung fu, and some wanted to defend their country and protect their cultural heritage.
There were also several teams of reincarnators that participated in that battle and suffered many casualties.
And at the end of that war, it ended with the defeat of the Jurchen Dynasty. I don’t know what kind of opportunity the war triggered. Tai Sui in Jiangzhong appeared and was divided up by all parties. The Jurchen Dynasty also grabbed part of it.
Later, the Ming Dynasty counterattacked, the Jurchens were defeated one after another, and wars continued for years. The magical power of Tai Sui was discovered, and warlocks and warriors entered a new realm, which also caused turmoil among many ambitious people.
Later, the Jurchens were defeated and retreated outside the customs, but the Ming Dynasty was still only the Southern Ming Dynasty. Although the territory was much larger than fifty years ago, there were many areas in the north occupied by the so-called eight major sects and many forces.
In addition to the three tasks involving team battles, there are two more mission standards for Dongfang Jie and his team.
One is to participate in deciding the ownership of Tianzidu, and the other is to explore the mystery of Tai Sui and unravel the true origin of Tai Sui.
While everyone was chatting, before they knew it, the sky had turned pale and a large ship entered the city.
The dock and city of Tianzidu were already bustling with activity.
The people on the boat were very hungry. Seeing that they could finally enter the city, they excitedly called their friends, took their luggage, and went into the city to have a meal.
When Guan Luoyang and others heard the noise outside, they got off the boat and entered the city, arriving in the busy area.
Although it was still early, the streets were already busy and bustling with traffic.
Tianzidu is worthy of being called the first-class place with vast amounts of money and food in the world today.
Guan Luoyang and the others found a restaurant and walked in. They heard a waiter inside, talking non-stop about ancient times.
"... When the Jurchen dynasty entered the pass, they set up an Yamen in charge of hunting animals outside the pass. In the Jurchen language, "wula" means hunting and fishing, and "wula" means "river", which means that they specialize in managing the various fishing and hunting ethnic groups on both sides of the river. Places were set aside for Gongshan and Gongjiang to collect offerings.”
"If you think about the fact that such a general office was set up just to collect tributes, you can understand how rare these things are. At most, there were more than 3,000 kinds of tributes, including ginseng, mink skins, honey, pine nuts, etc. .”
"The most famous tribute among them, besides Dongzhu, is the fish."
The waiter was sharp-tongued and spoke eloquently, "There was a saying at that time that it was called anchovy tribute. The fish gangs that hunted anchovies were directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The fishing nets and harpoons were all awarded by the emperor. The descendants of the fish farmers You don’t have to join the army, and you don’t have to pay food for farming, but if you don’t have enough fish, you’ll get a big slap at the least, or lose your head in the worst case. You can imagine how rare this fish is.”
"Later, the Jurchen Eight Banners suffered a loss at the hands of the men of the Ming Dynasty, and their territory was robbed by the eight major sects, and they retreated outside the customs. The Koreans wanted to add insult to injury and sent a small group of people to test them. The first thing they did was to rob the fish tribute. "
"The Jurchen Emperor was very annoyed now. He thought, if I can't defeat the Ming Dynasty, why can't I defeat you? So he ordered his troops to cross the river and occupy Goryeo."
Some diners in the store laughed and said: "The Jurchen Emperor can't even defeat the Ming Dynasty. He can't even suppress the eight major religious sects. He has lost all his troops and will be outside the customs. How can he still defeat Goryeo?"
The waiter also laughed: "Don't think that the Jurchen Emperor is of no use to us. There are also many masters in the army who have eaten Tai Sui meat. With Tai Sui's magical power, is it still difficult to defeat Goryeo? "
He clapped his hands and said, "Back to the subject, after the Jurchen Emperor went to Goryeo, the fish tribute outside the pass was not so obedient. Originally, only the Jurchen nobles could eat it, and the common people were not allowed to eat it. Now, even if they catch this kind of fish, some people will send it to the pass. Come on, sell high.”
"We spent a lot of money in the store to buy just this one. It has grown to several feet long and weighs more than a hundred pounds. In order to ensure the delicious taste, we asked the master chef to make it fresh in the store today. If you are interested, you can Buy a few plates and try them.”
Someone in the store had already brought out a large wooden water tank, and there was indeed a catfish in it.
It is not easy to bring this fish to the pass in autumn. After struggling to catch it, the willow trees on the riverside must be dug into a wooden trough, filled with river water, live fish put in, a straw rope passed through the nose, a bone ring fastened to the tail, and the fish Hoop inside, then seal the lid for shipping.
Someone must take good care of the fish along the way, change the water regularly, and beat the drum to scare the fish to prevent it from sleeping to death. Only in this way can it be kept alive. Carts transport it on the road, people eat it, horses chew it, and it takes a lot of money day and night. Energy is even more difficult to calculate, and it is expensive for a reason.
However, the way to eat this fish is extremely simple.
The people in the shop brought a wooden table, put the fish on it, washed it and dried it. The master chef cut open the fish, dug out the most precious roe from the whole fish, which is worth as much as pearls, and then cut the fish meat into pieces. The pieces are evenly distributed, and you can count them with your hands. They are arranged in a circle on the celadon plate, with wild sichuan pepper and sour seeds in the middle.
When eating, you just need to pick up the fish, dip it in the hot and sour wild pepper, and drink it with hot wine. It will be the most delicious.
Of course, people in the store will not only eat this. There are also some cold dishes and hot dishes on everyone's table to eat with it.
Guan Luoyang also had an appetite for a while and bought a few dishes.
Hua Ruoqing hesitated: "This is...freshwater sashimi..."
Guan Luoyang smiled and said: "We have developed this skill not just for fighting and killing, but of course also for eating whatever we want without any worries."
He has already sandwiched two pieces of food, and it is indeed delicious. Although it is not as magical as those dishes in the main god space that can make the vegetables glow when fried, or the raw materials can automatically glow, it still has a unique flavor.
Dongfang Jie and the young man with glasses have already tasted it.
This team of reincarnators are already mature reincarnators. They can do it themselves without asking Luoyang for information.
Of course, it doesn't mean just trying their luck in the tavern and listening to people's high-pitched talks, but they have been keeping calm on the way here, releasing Gu insects and going outside to collect information.
It was Hua Ruoqing who released the insects.
It's really strange to say that some girls will look at a plate of freshwater sashimi with a confused look on their face, but they can also release a lot of little things that are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, but look very hideous upon closer inspection without blinking an eyelid. insect.
Hua Ruoqing played with a strand of her hair with her fingers. When she lowered her eyes, densely packed pupils as small as needlepoints appeared on the surface of her eyeballs.
If someone saw her, they would probably think that the girl had some eye disease.
In fact, she is using the Gu techniques from the Liaozhai world to share the vision of the Gu insects she released.
Sharing the vision of all the Gu insects was a very impactful thing, so she very quickly selected some of the more important perspectives to keep, and temporarily removed the rest.
The remaining perspective now came to the government office of Tianzidu.
The government office in Tianzidu is also a strange place. Hua Ruoqing's poisonous insects are sensitive, and she can feel various disharmonious atmospheres before entering.
Although the people in the yamen are wearing uniforms that appear to be from the same system, when they get along with each other, they always fake smile in front of each other, turn around and lose their expressions, some even pretend not to pretend at all, and there are some people in each. Sitting in the small courtyard, staring at the busy people inside the portals, as if they were monitoring each other.
It was only after these Gu insects sneaked into the place where the files and documents were placed and browsed many records that Hua Ruoqing understood the problem.
Tianzidu was originally an important town in the north and a world-famous city. The Jurchen Dynasty also attached great importance to it and sent a large army to garrison it. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty's surprise troops stood out and the soldiers pointed out the city and nominally captured the city.
However, just when the Jurchen army had just retreated, in the chaos and haste, all parties sent unknown numbers of people to the Tianzi Ferry.
Later, there was civil strife in the Ming Dynasty. Although it was settled, it was not as chaotic as the eight major religious sects in the north and the many forces in the north. However, they were unable to conquer the north for the time being.
All the forces that were staring at this city were unable to capture the city and did not dare to use troops easily. If they swallowed it in one go, a situation was formed in the Yamen of the Emperor's Dufu, where the forces of all parties were intertwined.
Tianzidu became a city that nominally belonged to the Ming Dynasty, but in fact was almost isolated outside the territory of the Southern Ming Dynasty.
Gu Chong checked many documents again, which was equivalent to being read by Hua Ruoqing.
She finally knew the origins of the so-called eight major sects.
