When did the adults who were eating and drinking see such a strange celestial phenomenon, they all raised their heads and exclaimed at this moment, and Guo Zhangyuan of the Hanlin Academy even shouted: "The guest star is coming, this is an unborn vision." Even Master Huijing, who was so unsmiling, also raised his head at this time, staring at the sky without blinking, with a solemn expression.

When Qian Jin was in his previous life, he often heard reports about UFOs, but he had never seen the entity, and he didn't expect to see it with his own eyes today, and his heart had already turned upside down. He stared at the glowing orb of the clouds, as if pulled forward by an invisible rope.

The speed of the ball of light is very slow, and it seems to be about the same as the speed of a human walking. Qian Jin knew that it was because it was too far away, but in fact, its speed was far beyond the limits of human beings.

Qian Jin left behind the guests present and slowly walked out of the courtyard following the trajectory of the ball of light.

On the streets, in restaurants, on bridges, and in various houses, the common people noticed the vision and looked up at the sky with their necks raised. That ball of light has surpassed their cognition, and many people call it the descent of the gods, and some say that it is the descent of the calamity.

In Renshou Palace, Empress Dowager Zheng heard the exclamations of the palace maids and eunuchs, and wanted to come out to reprimand a few times. When she left the main hall, she saw that everyone was looking up at the sky with their necks up, completely oblivious to the work at hand. She couldn't help but follow everyone's gaze, and when she saw the ball of light in the clouds, her eyes were full of incredulity

"After 20 years, is Taishang coming back?" The Queen Mother muttered.

In the imperial study, Emperor Zao Wou-Ki of Renwu was checking the notes reviewed by the Empress Dowager Zheng, when he suddenly heard Jin Duo exclaim. He wanted to reprimand a few words, but he saw Jin Duo crawling in from outside with both hands and feet, and said, "Your Majesty, a vision has fallen from heaven...... Come out and see! ”

Gonggong Cai glanced at Jin Duo and sneered: "Jin Guard, what are you panicking about!" Didn't you see Your Majesty reading the recital? ”

Zao Wou-Ki knew Jin Duo. This thing is stunned, and the knife will not frown when it reaches the neck, but it looks a little strange today. He threw down the recital and walked out of the door of the imperial study in a few steps. When he saw the dazzling orb in the sky, his form froze.

"Your Majesty, a different star has fallen from the sky, quickly find a place to hide with the miscellaneous family!" Gonggong Cai also saw the ball of light in the air at this time, and although he was so scared that his legs cramped, he still didn't forget to remind the emperor to dodge.

Zao Wou-Ki didn't pay attention to it at all, he stared at the air and muttered, "Calamity? Mascot? Where will I, Chen Guo, go? If only the Father were still alive! ”

The ball of light continued to move southward.

Qian Jin followed closely behind and chased after him, and before he knew it, he had already left Yongding Gate. When he chased to a hill outside the city gate, he found that the distance between him and the ball of light had not been shortened, so he had to give up the pursuit, and his eyes were still watching the movement of the ball of light, for fear that it would disappear in the next moment.

As if sensing it, the ball of light stopped. It just hovered in the air, making no movement or making a sound.

Qian Jin and the ball of light looked at each other from a height of thousands of miles. Somehow, from the moment the ball of light appeared, he vaguely felt that the reason why he had crossed over to Chen Guolai was because of the inexplicable relationship with the ball of light. Out of temptation, he suddenly roared into the sky: "Since you have a way to send me here, there must be a way to send me back!" Bring...... I...... Walk...... ......."

The ball of light did not respond, like a dead thing.

Qian Jin laughed self-deprecatingly, and said in his heart what was wrong with him today. Even if you can really go back to your previous life, you must be there and there are no people. Besides, now he is no longer alone in Chen Guo, he has his father and mother to support, his sister to take care of, and so many craftsmen to follow him to make a living.

He kicked a lump of dirt on the mountain bag hard, and turned to go home. At present, there are still many guests in the courtyard, and it is obviously a bit rude for him to leave like this.

At this moment, the ball of light moved. A constant glow spread from its body, flashing and flashing, as if it had a fixed frequency, accompanied by a whining humming sound. Immediately after, a dazzling beam of light shot out, heading straight to the south.

Qian Jin was dumbfounded. Before he could come back to his senses, the ball of light sent out three more dazzling beams of light, shooting in three directions: due west, due north, and due east.

On the official road to the west, a middle-aged Confucian student wore a long robe, a hat on his head, held a soul-attracting flag, and hummed an unknown song and marched slowly. This person is Gao Yuan, who was separated from Qian Jin this morning. He was going to enter Longxi through Henan, and then transfer to Guizhou to Yunnan, to find the swordsman named Mo Bingyun.

A beam of light swept over his head, pointing to the west.

Gao Yuan paused for a moment, and muttered: "The four poles are flat, Zhongzhou is prosperous; The four poles move, Zhongzhou is dead! ”

In Poyang County, Jiangxi, Zhao Anzheng, the king of the Ming Dynasty, led the "Heavenly Machine" Shu Lian to watch the dock and the water village, and discussed the imitation method of the Hongyi cannon. It was noon, and the sun was shining in the sky. Suddenly, a beam of light came from the north, eclipsing the sun.

Shu Lian and the other people had never seen such a vision, and their faces were full of shock.

Shu Wensheng was the first to come to his senses. He fell to the ground and shouted, "The vision is a sign of a change of dynasty." If the prince acts, he will be like a bamboo. ”

At this time, Zhao An, the king of Ming, was looking at the beam of light that was going south, and he was sad and indignant in his heart: Tianzheng Gong, did you summon the Taishang to warn the king? You're half a person in the ground, why are you biting me tightly?

When the others heard Shu Wensheng's words, they all knelt on the ground and shouted: Long live King Ming, long live! The sound of the mountain echoes one after another, echoing on the shore of Poyang Lake.

King Ming turned around and motioned for everyone to flatten, and his face was already replaced with a bright smile.

Princess Jing was also kneeling down at this time, she looked at the southbound beam, and frowned slightly.

Pyeongchang Mansion, the old residence of the Wen family.

Wen Tianzheng and Wen Xun, father and son, were playing against each other in the courtyard. The two were evenly matched, and each of them held the black and white two sons and killed happily on that chessboard.

Wu Bo was also watching from the sidelines, although he didn't know how to play chess, but watching the two fathers and sons of the Wen family kill each other, he felt happy for no reason. Inadvertently, he glanced up at the sky, and happened to see the beam of light coming from the north, pointing to the air trembling and shouting: "Master, young master, look! ”

Tianzheng Gong slowly raised his head, and tears flashed in his eyes, which were already a little cloudy. He immediately instructed Wen Xun to take fruits, incense and candles and put them in place, retreated the two of them, stood in the courtyard and bowed deeply to the sky, and cried: "Taishang, is this the last time you will come to inspect my Da Chen's land?" Can I still get your asylum? ”

…………

The news of the arrival of the guest star continues to ferment in the streets and alleys of the capital, and the storytellers run around the teahouses and restaurants, telling various explanations heard from nowhere, and the business is surprisingly good.

The officials of the Qin Heavenly Prison were also busy in the past three days, and they used various methods such as hexagrams, astrogazing, and celestial tricks to deduce and argue, and finally came to the conclusion that the arrival of the guest star was an auspicious sign. The report had already been sent to the palace, and the queen mother and the emperor each had a copy in their hands.

Empress Dowager Zheng only glanced at the brocade box sent by Qin Tianjian, and didn't bother to open it to check the comments in it. Regarding the origin of the ball of light, the first emperor had already told her 1510, so why bother to look at the nonsense on the criticism.

After the guest star came into the world, even though many old ministers entered the palace to report and said in unison that this was a sign of great Chen prosperity, Cao Shangshu, Mei Saijiu, Sun Mingshu and others took this opportunity to propose to let the emperor take full control.

The Queen Mother is also tired these days. Dealing with those recitals every day had already consumed most of her energy, and now she had to comfort these ministers with good words, and stop tossing about the rumors of the arrival of any guest stars. After all, there are still so many big and small affairs to deal with in the court.

Looking at the ministers who were sent away, she sighed and said in her heart: Maybe the emperor really has to pick up the burden, and the queen mother can help him for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Since witnessing UFOs, Qian Jin has chosen to keep a low profile. At this level of cognition, it is not associated with a flying machine that may be an extraterrestrial life. Fortunately, on the day of the winter solstice, everyone was attracted by the vision, and no one noticed that there was such a young man running around the street chasing the "guest star", and shouting something "take me away".

As for the origin of the flying saucer, my grandfather should know something, so Qian Jin was not in a hurry to verify anything. You know, a flying machine that can make such a trajectory in the air is not what he can understand now.

Fortunately, ordinary people have livelihoods to manage every day, and no matter how heavy the news is, it is also hot. By the third day, life in the capital had returned to normal.

Half of the blended alcohol in the liquor shop has been sold, and the silver in the courtyard is in the account every day. If there is no abnormal weather this winter, Qian Jin plans to keep some of the silver to buy food, part of it for daily expenses, and the rest for the production of firearms and the capital for doing business in the south.

What is gratifying is that today Ding Wei finally returned from Shannanshu, and brought back 400 catties of fine graphite ore and 200 catties of white clay produced in Xingtai, Hebei.

Asked if they had been intercepted by the men in black on the road, Ding Wei said that after they left the capital, they went directly to Xingtai, where they stayed for some time, and the road was still peaceful. As for the official mansion in Nanshu, after the county magistrate there saw Qian Jin's thousand-household waist card, he was already scared to the ground, for fear that Jinyiwei would come to find trouble, where would he dare to embarrass him, and he also gave away a mine for nothing. Anyway, those black "stones" are of little use.

Jinyiwei's official uniforms and military salaries are also in place. The three hundred new ladies put on new black robes and hats, and their faces were full of joy; Wang Liuzi was also obedient, and went to Wanping County early to find Ge Yun to report. It's just that the silver is a little pitiful, in addition to the grain and rice every month, a brocade guard only has ten taels of silver a year, which makes Qian Jin sigh. If you are a soldier and fight, you don't know when you lose your life, what can you do with this money? It's not enough to buy a good coffin.

Leave that aside. Now that everything is in order, we are just waiting for the ironshop to do a big job.
