Chapter 357: Four Elephants - White Tiger
For the general population living in the Shikoku area, the small intersection of the 'True Fantasy Road' in the middle of Mt. Bizan is arguably the most precious thing in the whole of Shikoku.
Almost 80% of the industries in the entire Shikoku have developed around the various goods that flow from the intersections, whether it is the various Reiko foods produced from the outside world that can strengthen the 'sense of existence' of the Dream People, or those technological creations with strange abilities, all of which are widely sought after.
And in the same way, those goods with unique natural properties produced in the dream world are also not in demand in Takamagahara**. And since the amount of material exchange between the two worlds is capped, these pathways that can connect the two worlds are particularly important.
The more intersections in anyone's territory, the more they can occupy the majority of the quota, and the economic and political benefits that come with it are self-evident. Even if these are meaningless to those gods who have a divine kingdom high above, but for the strong at the demigod level, or the lord level, or even the weaker beings who have also stepped into the transcendent realm, the accumulation of foreign objects still has its meaning.
The weaker the transcendent, the more they value these things: money, fame, status, and so on, and the deeper things they can bring. Maybe it's an unintentional inquiry from a big guy, or maybe it's a coincidence, in the eyes of these people who are struggling to make progress, there are few problems in the world that money and identity can't solve.
So when Fayton's caravan turned back not long after it departed, he was discovered by someone who cared about it, even though he had chosen a secluded place to park.
"That idiot from the Kuroshima family is back? Are you sure you're right?"
"Yes, Lord Changzong, the guards stationed at the intersection spotted his convoy, and after secretly observing, they found that his goods were still there, but there was a strange young man sitting in a carriage. ”
Shaped like a hexagonal prism, the conversation that took place in the extremely modern building did not attract Su Xing's attention, and his spirit was firmly attracted by what he saw in front of him.
Meishan floats in the air less than five meters from the surface of Chawu Lake, hazy clouds and mist surround the mountain, and from time to time there are gorgeous birds chirping through the clouds, chasing a large school of blue and jade-colored fish. A wide avenue of white clouds connects the square at the foot of the hill supported by a huge green leaf with the land thousands of meters away.
A little further away on the shore of the lake is a small village, with two or three hundred households. The architectural style can be said to be a mixture of buildings from the Nara period to modern architecture, and the people who walk the streets are also characteristic of each era, and the whole village seems to be a patchwork of some extremely bad guy.
"Your Highness, where should we go next?" Feiton asked in a cautious low voice, he quietly raised his eyes to look at Su Xing's interested expression, and lowered his head again.
"Taoyao, what do you say?" Su Xing asked nonchalantly as he stroked the cat in his arms.
The cat stretched its waist, fumbled in the long hair on its back for a while, and pulled out a pale yellow scroll that was more than twice as long as it, and while unfolding the scroll, it replied without looking back: "You wait, I'll see how the map has been updated recently, it's not so easy to find the Sun God Palace in this world!"
The fully unfolded scroll was more than ten meters long, and it fluttered in the air, circling the carriage three or four times.
"Leave, exchange, shock, kan! Four elephants and white tigers, the art of cat summoning!"
The slender silk threads floating from Tao Yao's claws quickly outlined dense formations on the blank scroll, and one after another tiny runes fell on the scroll at an astonishing speed, and in an instant, the entire scroll surface of nearly ten square meters was painted with runes and formations composed of three colors: green, gold, and red.
It slammed its claws, and there was a soft snap.
The continuous white smoke exploded around the carriage, and the figures of hundreds of cats loomed in the smoke, and a pair of vertical pupils flashed with crystal brilliance, as if thousands of small light bulbs were lit around it. The air was filled with the sound of majestic drums, which seemed to accompany them.
"See His Highness Cocoon!"
The neat and powerful shouts made it impossible to imagine that this was made by a group of cats of different sizes, one after another of different breeds of cats came out of the smoke, bowed to Tao Yao, and then squatted quietly aside, and before long, a rather spectacular phalanx was discharged.
"Your Highness Cocoon, huh?" Su Xing smiled and shook the cat, "I didn't expect you to have such an identity." ”
Tao Yao snorted, "It's nothing, it's just a little bit of work, after all, I'm not a serious god, and it's almost the same as an ordinary title." It's also a little more convenient when doing things. ”
Su Xing didn't bother with these details, he rubbed the cat's head and said, "What are you going to ask them next?"
"Ahem," Tao Yao broke free from Su Xing's hand, got up, crossed his waist with one paw, and said loudly to the cats who were obediently squatting around the carriage: "My people, have you ever known the whereabouts of the Sun God Palace in the near future?"
The cats below immediately began to talk to each other, and the meows of Mimi came and went, like a melodious symphony.
After a while, the two tabby cats squatting in the front row who were extremely huge and no different from the smaller tigers reported one by one: "Your Highness the great and beautiful Cocoon, according to the latest report from the Imperial Family, the Sun God Palace was still in the sky above the Pipa Sea a day ago, but now it is still there, so I don't know." If you need it, we can make a request to the Imperial Family, and we trust that they will not refuse the wishes of a great cat god. ”
Tao Yao tilted her head, "You two...... Is it the former ghost and the back ghost? When did they grow so big?"
"Noble and majestic Highness Cocoon, since you let the two of us successfully reincarnate, we wandered for a while, and finally chose the Imperial Family to be their worship, as long as it is not too much to ask, they will not refuse us. ”
"Well, how long will it take, this matter is quite urgent. ”
The huge tabby cat named Exoni bowed its head respectfully and replied, "Just wait a few minutes." Any information about the Sun God Palace is a priority that every family must prioritize, and I just need to ask. ”
It closed its eyes and wagged its tail slightly.
Su Xing blinked, and when the former ghost wagged his tail, he felt an extremely faint radio wave coming from the leather protector around its neck, and then looked closely, it was a communicator with the same function as a mobile phone!
Following this radio wave, Su Xing 'saw' a scene tens of thousands of kilometers away. Of course, whether this distance span is so large, given the particularity of this world, Su Xing is not very sure.
