Chapter 422: The Crisis of the Spirits of the Nation

With Xiao Wenli and Huaxia Zhongying, the Spirit Palace returned to normal.

Winter goes to the summer solstice, and in the blink of an eye, it is a good year to come to autumn.

Although the Xia Kingdom officially started a war with the Demon Clan and the Eastern Kingdoms, none of this had anything to do with Xiao Wenli. He honestly serves as his mascot in the Yongle Palace, which is completely different from Ji Le's way of dealing with it.

All he could do was to use the power of the national spirit to give empowerment and blessing when Meng Tian, Li Jing and others went out to fight.

Reading and writing every day, in his spare time, he wanders around the Nine Palace City with the goddess Qingling.

On this day, Qingling and Xiao Wenli held hands in the market.

Girl in Tsing Yi: "Do you know what day it is?"

"What day?" Xiao Wenli looked confused, he pondered for a while: "Bit City was taken by General Meng Tian and is on his way back to the city, is it because he wants to sacrifice prisoners in advance today?"

"No, no, didn't you say that you have to wait for the good sister to come back all the way?"

"Could it be the demons? But the demons haven't moved recently......"

Seeing that Xiao Wenli became more and more crooked the more he thought about it, Qingling couldn't help but remind: "I ...... a year ago"

A year ago, the two of them met for the first time in the true sense of the word.

Xiao Wenli's heart suddenly burst, and he immediately said, "Of course I don't remember!"

"Was there anything a year ago?"

Qing Ling wanted to speak and stopped, and said in his heart: Yes, although it was true that the two of them really met that day. But I actually saw the Mid-Autumn Festival a few days earlier. In the past, I also know His Royal Highness Ji Raku, who is an adult. What kind of anniversaries or something, is it really too much to watch during this time......

But the hand holding her next to her easily opened and put an agate necklace on her.

"Every day with Your Highness is full of novelty, like seeing each other for the first time. Every day is full of anticipation for tomorrow. So, there is no need for an anniversary. ”

What, forget about anniversaries?

If it doesn't exist, even if you forget it, according to the "Strategy Manual", you can't directly admit it, and you must turn it into a more favorable environment for yourself.

Xiao Wenli was secretly glad that he was fortunate that he was able to call the things in the treasury as a national spirit. I can get this necklace from Yang Ke's private library in time.

......

On the roof of the restaurant not far away, Huo Quzhi held his chin and said to Emperor Shi with a deep face: "Old man, do you guess that if Yuan Xi comes back and fights with Qingling, can the fourth child of the Beifeng family beat the third?"

Xiao Wenli is making trouble, you have a good relationship with Qingling, so you are not afraid that Yuan Xi will eat you when you turn back?

Emperor Shi, who was looking at the wind with him, had an ugly face.

In the past year, Yuan Xi has returned to the Spirit Palace many times, but they have been diverged by them for various reasons, although he has a few relationships with Xiao Wenli, but there is no more to get along.

Unexpectedly, this year, against Yuan Xi, he raised tigers for trouble, and made a Qingling.

In terms of threat, Qingling is obviously much smaller than Yuan Xi. Moreover, the goddess Qingling is innocent and simple, and she is the marriage contract sent by the Lord of the North Wind with acquiescence.

From any point of view, it is more advantageous than Yuanxi.

But the question is, doesn't Qingling's ascendancy also have to share half of the power of the national spirit?

Isn't the reason why the Xia Kingdom rejects the worship of the gods because they are worried about the damage to the interests of the country?

Sharing half of the power of the national spirit can affect the life and death of the people, the rise and fall of cities, the evolution of mountains and rivers, and so on.

This is not a pointless worry. Because in the course of the year, there has been a whole new example.

With the oppression of the Eastern Kingdoms by the Xia Kingdom, a national spirit chose to marry the gods to strengthen the country's defenses. The spirit of the kingdom asked the goddess to act as a protector in order to deal with the offensive of the Xia Kingdom.

But in just one month, the goddess betrayed the country and took a large amount of benefits from the Xia country.

At the request of the Xia Kingdom, the goddess destroyed the walls of the small city-state through her own powers, took the initiative to eliminate all defensive measures, and let the Xia State Governor drive straight in, taking the half-crippled national spirit plus all the citizens prisoner.

The lessons of the past are just around the corner. How dare Emperor Shi marry the gods of heaven for the Xia Kingdom?

What if Yuan Xi is bound to the interests of Xia Guo?

If there is a greater benefit, who dares to say that Yuan Xi will use his power to erase the city of Xia and reduce all the Xia people to slavery after severely inflicting on Ji Le for his own benefit?

They didn't want the so-called goddess of marriage to sell the Xia Kingdom to other gods on the second day of the marriage of the national spirit.

Therefore, there are more and more members of the Xia Guoling Single Protection Association. But at the same time, they did not dare to confront the national spirit head-on.

Emperor Shi had a worried face, staring at Xiao Wenli who was wandering on the street.

"Although I don't know the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes, it's really a mouse trap at the moment. ”

In this year, while the Xia Kingdom was victorious, the mainland was surging with an undercurrent and a new case opened a new path for the national spirits.

The kingdom of Tuo Ling has become a god.

It was not a certain citizen, but the humanoid national spirit of the Tuoling Kingdom that transformed into a celestial god before the five great national spirits.

The Kingdom of Dolin is an outland civilization second only to the Five Kingdoms, and is good at spiritual abilities. When the demons invaded on a large scale, the country of Tuoling was in danger. But it is precisely because of this that with the hard work of the national spirit, it resonates with all the people, integrates all the spirits into itself, and turns into a new god.

The giant god stands between heaven and earth, destroying all enemies who invade him, and then being able to separate himself from the people and become a new god of psychic power.

This is exactly the speculation that the national spirits once made: if the national spirit has too much influence on the people, resulting in spiritual harmony, will it be impossible to separate in the end?

The example of the country of Toling truly confirms this. At the same time, there is also a strange secret art circulating in the land.

This secret art is an evil art in which the spirit of the country devours the people, voluntarily renounces the national identity, and turns into a god.

The first time this secret art appeared, it was destroyed by the monarchs of all countries. But those national spirits don't know the content of this evil art, and no one dares to guarantee it.

The only thing that is known is that with the advent of this evil art, a rift has appeared between the national spirit and the people that is difficult to resolve.

The spirit of the nation is no longer a fragile product of failure. If the national spirits are willing, they can devour the national spirits through evil magic and turn them into gods. According to some people's speculation, if the spirit of the Xia Kingdom devours all the people and transforms into a god, at least the upper god will start, and he may even be promoted to His Majesty.

In this case, the people of Xia Kingdom really didn't dare to argue with Xiao Wenli casually. In case Xiao Wenli is locked up, he is anxious to use this evil art, and the entire Xia Kingdom will be destroyed in a blink of an eye.

Huo Quzhi glanced at Emperor Shi's expression a few times, and pointed to something: "Although I don't know where this evil art comes from, I can't escape from a few main gods or creation gods. And with the advent of this evil art, the national spirits have a new choice. No more worrying about sharing power with the gods. ”

In the same way, what if the spirit of the nation admires the gods, but is unable to do so because the people block it?

Quite simply, the spirit of the country only needs to turn itself into a god and destroy his country.

After the appearance of this evil art, Xia Guo was in an extremely embarrassing situation.

Shi Huang snorted angrily: "Look, the coming day is long." I'll wait for Ji Le to come back and make plans. ”

At present, the only fortunate thing is that Xiao Wenli, who has shrunk Ji Le, did not go to the Court of Nations, and did not communicate with other national spirits. And Xiao Wenli has no ill feelings towards the people at present, and the situation has not been bad to the last step.

Suddenly, Xi Shi came across the clouds: "Boss, it's not good. Just now, Her Royal Highness reported that she had obtained a secret technique abroad. ”

"Secret art, how is it a secret art?"

Recently, Emperor Shi was furious by this so-called "secret technique", and he had a vague sense of foreboding.

And when he went back to talk to his wife, he just verified his guess.

The newly acquired secret art of the woman is a "divine substitution technique". Through this secret art, it is possible to seize the power of the gods of faith. At the same time, this secret art can also target the spirit of the country.

For example, in the case of ensuring that the country is intact, the old national spirit is erased and replaced with a new national spirit.

First, the secret art of the national spirits to be promoted to gods, and then the secret art of killing the national spirits and replacing the national spirits.

Even people who are not sensitive to politics, such as Tian Ping and Yi Fei, have a thought flashing through their minds.

It's been a change!

......

Wang Ting, Yang Ke had a gloomy face, looking at the secret technique sent by Sima Xuande.

"Xuande, you said you got this secret technique in a meteorite crater?"

"That's right. Her Royal Highness blocked the news as soon as possible, but I was quick to copy part of the content. ”

The secret technique in front of Yang Ke is not complete, there is only one on it to steal the national faith with utensils or human pillars, and set up a national spirit array.

"Her Royal Highness has blocked the news, but I'm afraid that the secret technique has already been known by the Spirit Palace. Liu Sheng's face was ugly: "The mastermind behind the scenes is ruthless enough, this is forcing us to start a war with the Spirit Palace!"

And Ji Le is not there!

Xiao Guoling didn't take care of things at all this year, and he couldn't deter the overall situation.

Yang Ke stared at the drawings, this secret technique of "God on behalf of the national spirit", the general process can be guessed: it is nothing more than hypnotizing the old national spirit first, and then cutting off the vein between the other party and the country without the intervention of the national spirit, and then constructing a new national spirit with the core of this array diagram.

Yang Ke leaned on the back of the chair, raised his head and sighed: "This is a yang scheme, as long as you have a desire in your heart, you will obediently use this secret technique and take the initiative to conflict with the national spirit." ”

Even if the monarchs of various countries maintain restraint and do not take the initiative to attack the national spirit. However, some careerists have found a simple and feasible way to seal the gods through the two types of secret techniques that are currently circulating.

You don't need to do anything to your own spirit. Just choose a small city-state, first seize the power of the national spirit, and then devour the people of the whole country with the secret technique of the national spirit, you can transform into a god, it is simply a smooth road without cultivation!

And the kings of the small city-states, in case they don't want to die old themselves, they will turn their minds on the spirits of the kingdom who do not yet have the wisdom of their own countries.

After replacing the national spirit, Jin can incarnate as a god. And maintaining the body of the national spirit can also make the beast-shaped national spirit directly transform into a humanoid national spirit, increasing the strength of the country itself.

As for the Xia Kingdom......

Yang Ke thought of the shrunken national spirit in the Spirit Palace, and immediately burned the blueprints of the array: "I have decided, and Yang Mao will be succeeded in a year." ”

Bang –

Liu Sheng almost dropped the jade board.

"What are you talking about? You're crazy!"

At present, Yang Ke is only in his thirties and is in the prime of life, while Yang Mao is only thirteen years old.

"Do you believe it, when this word spreads, you will be confused by a group of bosses?"

Yang Ke Zhengse said: "Although the affairs of the country are heavy, it is not necessary for me. ”

"Yingyang, you should understand. This is the age of mythology, not the age of the so-called 'supremacy of kingship'. Even if Yang Mao is put in the position, it is just to deal with official business sooner or later, and to review and seal it on this chair. There are many capable ministers to help, and there is no need to worry about problems at all. ”

As for grabbing power?

Yang Ke abdicated, but he didn't die!

"I plan to take this opportunity to refine the Golden Crow Plan and set out to break through the Celestial Realm. ”

Yang Ke passed on the throne, and Liu Sheng originally had a stomach against it, but this last sentence made his heart move.

That's right, this is not the Han Dynasty described by the ancestors. In this mythological era, there are national gods, heavenly gods, ancestral gods, and yin spirits, even if Yang Ke passes on the throne to Yang Mao, there is actually no big problem. And Yang Ke can also save time and focus on promoting to the gods.

When the contradiction between the national spirit and the national lord became increasingly acute, Yang Ke retreated bravely and broke through the gods, which could alleviate the contradiction between the two palaces.

"After I became a god, even if the spirit of the country wanted to devour the people, I would not be able to interfere with a true god. At that time, I was able to support the people. At the same time, it can also deter other careerists and prevent them from taking the place of the national spirit. ”

"After all, Ji Le is not wrong. ”

"But if you want to be promoted to the god of heaven, unlike Emperor Shi, it is directly aimed at the sun god. ”

In this eventful time, a direct confrontation with the sun god?

"Why don't you get Yuanxi back first?"

"No, no, I'm going to sacrifice to the heavens and really set up a national honor. Yang Ke patted the heirloom jade seal on the table.

"I sensed that there was a pure dragon qi in this jade seal. ”

This heirloom jade seal is Ji Le's embodiment through the torch and the family's bi, is the Eastern Han Dynasty heirloom jade seal. After the inheritance of the Qin and Han dynasties, it fell into the hands of Yang Ke.

This is equivalent to opening a separate imperial system in addition to the inheritance of the national heritage of the homeland "Qin and Han - Wei and Jin - Sui and Tang", that is, "Qin - Han - Xia".

"Although because of the existence of the national spirit, I can't prove the true Holy Emperor Wang Dao Fruit, but with this dragon qi, I can turn into the god of royal power and protect the Xia Kingdom. ”

"And one of the advantages of doing this is also to share part of the country's fortunes and cut off the road of the national spirit devouring the people. ”

"At the same time, I swear to the Spirit Palace again. Ensure that the spirit of the Great Xia Kingdom will never be replaced, and I believe that it can appease the Spirit Palace. ”

"Well, that's it. ”

In the face of the push of the mastermind behind the scenes, Liu Sheng also understands that this is the best compromise strategy at present.

"It's a pity, after His Royal Highness Ji Le recovers, I'm afraid I'll scold you. ”

Ji Le planned to establish an empire in one step, but now Yang Ke hastily established a country to worship the heavens, resulting in unsatisfactory national fortunes, and Ji Le could not step into the ranks of the emperor.

"That's why I have a one-year buffer, and I'm going to calm the East within a year. At least nominally to subjugate the eastern states, so that Great Xia can truly unify the eastern civilization circle. Maybe by doing so, he can provide more national fortune power to Ji Le, so that the spell on his body can be automatically broken. ”

"That's just as well. ”

Liu Sheng immediately took action and transmitted Yang Ke's words to the Spirit Palace.

Shi Huang and the others were gathering together to discuss the secret technique of "God on behalf of the national spirit" with the women from afar.

Hearing the news sent by Liu Sheng, everyone was shocked at first, but then after thinking about it carefully, they also felt that there was some truth.

Yes, Yang Ke chose to establish a country at this moment, which is not bad for Xia Guo. Maybe as soon as the dragon is angry, Ji Le will come back.

As a result, Yang Ke's proposal was successfully passed. No one understood Yang Mao's protest at all, and it was unanimously passed.

Yang Mao: I'm only thirteen years old, and I'm still a baby in the words of the Father of the Nation, and now it's the age of growing my body, so are you treating me so harshly?

But this matter has no room for Yang Mao to negotiate at all. He succeeded to the throne as a monarch, and to put it bluntly, he was a puppet. Yang Ke is not dead, a group of old ministers are here, everything is still presided over by Yang Ke, he is just a tool person responsible for stamping.
