……

The nameless book suddenly closed automatically.

Then fade away.

The blurred scenery around Cheng Lin quickly became clear.

The first is light.

It was dark night before he turned the page, and now, when the blur cleared, the bright sun poured in.

It was sunny all around.

A slightly cold wind blew from nowhere, blowing the corners of his white clothes and scattering the scattered stars.

"It's ...... Plateau? ”

Cheng Lin was amazed.

He found himself sitting cross-legged on a soothing dirt slope, surrounded by some greenery, low vegetation.

The cold wind probably came from the snow-capped mountains in the distance.

Yes.

When he looks into the distance, he is not hindered by anything.

It is a vast wilderness, with some shallow green vegetation growing on the barren land.

You can't see the city, you can't see the buildings, and the unobstructed view can be projected far, far away.

In the barren land, there is a long river not far away, which is not big, just a small river, but it continues to the snow-capped mountains in the distance, probably a tributary of the snow-capped mountains.

Look further ahead.

It wasn't until the horizon that Huo Ran was blocked by the tall mountains.

Along the mountain range in the distance, you can see a rare bright sky.

Cheng Lin was used to the clouds overhead during this time, and at this time, seeing the blue space, he was a little uncomfortable.

High in the sky, there were only a few white clouds drifting rapidly, casting large shadows on the ground, but these clouds were only dotted.

The sky is clear and clear, and the atmosphere seems to be much thinner, and the sunlight bursts down here without hindrance, dazzling to the eye.

Retracting his gaze, he could see the people walking and lying nearby.

There was also a string of trucks.

The people were sitting on the ground resting, and in the midst of it many men dressed in white were walking, as if preaching, as if commanding.

There are also people who take water from the river.

Those trucks are many, much less than they were at the beginning.

Cheng Lin remembered that at the beginning, the number of trucks was like an endless long line, but at the moment, it was like an earthworm paralyzed on the plateau, only a short section.

The nearly three million followers were spread out on both sides of the truck, dressed in thick clothes, each carrying a bag of luggage, looking miserable and exhausted.

"Have you already entered the Qingcang Plateau?"

Cheng Lin muttered.

According to the book, they should have entered the confines of the Qingcang Plateau.

Qingcang Plateau, also known as the roof of the world, also known as the "snowy plateau" and "third pole", is the highest plateau in the world, with an average altitude of 4,500 meters and an area of 2.5 million square kilometers.

Its territory area is almost a quarter of the Xia Kingdom!

However, the population living here is pitifully small.

It is an uninhabitable place.

Snowy fields, high mountains, frozen grounds, harsh climates, harsh soils......

Everything indicates the desolation of this land.

And Cheng Lin spent four months leading these three million people from the hinterland of Xia Kingdom all the way into this barren land!

Further south, you will enter the Himalayas, where the world's tallest mountain, Mount Everest, stands!

"It seems so."

Cheng Lin sighed with emotion.

In four months, the specific events in it were probably automatically deduced and completed by the program, which exempted Cheng Lin from the pain of hard work.

"I was worried that I would really have to walk for four months, but fortunately, I could speed up."

"It's August, and the world should be almost flooded."

"Are the twelve camps written in the book the same ones that my twelve apostles have established? According to the number of ways deduced, it is very likely. ”

"I don't know what happened to them now......

Cheng Lin's mind was complicated.

At this time, I suddenly heard footsteps.

He looked over for a moment.

It's Joya.

The four-month escape has changed Joya a lot.

Her face no longer has the temperament of the original city girl, but is instead clothed with hardship and a strange holiness.

She is no longer a uniform with small lapels, but a white shirt, modeled after Cheng Lin.

Along the way, they collected a lot of supplies.

In addition to the largest proportion of grain, there are also important items such as clothes and fabrics, iron tools, medical equipment, and energy blocks.

And Qiao Ya was in charge, and made a lot of white cloth and changed it into a simple robe.

It was distributed to Cheng Lin's first tens of thousands of believers.

Because she is more familiar with Cheng Lin, she has faintly become the leader of her followers, so she has a certain right to speak.

At first, some officials were incomprehensible to her decision to purchase white cloth and expressed their opposition.

But in the end, the director was on Joya's side.

This was the case.

Later, Qiao Ya set up a tower-shaped ruling structure, and maintained the transfer of a million-level team through tens of thousands of white-clothed believers.

Because she is a religious family, she may be influenced by old thinking, or she may have deliberately borrowed and learned.

Implicitly, by such means, a ruling structure similar to that of the Middle Ages was established.

It successfully made up for the lack of control over the entire team caused by the lack of manpower on the part of the government.

At this point, those officials suddenly understood something.

The gaze on Qiao Ya also became more serious.

Religion.

Religious-style structure of governance.

If at the beginning, Cheng Lin showed a simple personality cult.

Now, through Qiao Ya's operation, a religious model derived from Cheng Lin's personality cult has gradually emerged.

Even if it's just a model.

Even this humble religion does not even have a "doctrine" or a "program."

But it still reveals a clear religious tendency.

Or rather.

Prophet is doctrine!

Cheng Lin is the doctrine!

……

It is worth mentioning that a lot of grain seeds were also collected during the journey.

The supplies were placed on their remaining trucks, and the people were all on foot.

Along the way the escort into the plateau, where the hardships are not enough for the outer road.

In the absence of strong government manpower, lead these millions of people on foot, escort on foot, away from the hinterland of the Xia Kingdom, which is dangerous but rich in resources, and turn into the notoriously inhospitable roof of the world.

It's unbelievable how you hear about it.

Among them, the ruling structure of the white-clothed believers is only a small factor, and the most important is ...... Or Cheng Lin.

As a spiritual leader, he has become the last spiritual pillar of these millions in these troubled times.

His words are immensely powerful.

"There are many flocks of sheep living on the plateau, and the flocks are stupid, they don't know how to think, they only know how to follow the first sheep,

When the head sheep goes east, the flock goes east, and the head sheep goes west, and the flock goes west, unreasonable......

It may not be appropriate to say this, but how can these millions be wiser than the flock?

The prophet is the head of the people,

That's why I was able to bring them here, but ...... I still don't understand the mind of the Prophet. ”

These words were said to Qiao Ya by the director who was recuperating from his injuries on the day the team officially entered the plateau boundary.

As he said this, the procession was moving forward.

Cheng Lin, dressed in white, walked at the front of the team, in the most conspicuous position, without joy or sorrow, like an ascetic monk.

Although the people in the rear were exhausted, as long as they saw that figure, they seemed to have the strength to move forward.

……

When Qiao Ya saw Cheng Lin, she suddenly recalled what the director said to her that day.

couldn't help but stare at Cheng Lin quietly for a while.

When she saw Cheng Lin looking over, she lowered her gaze and approached respectfully: "Lord Prophet, can I make today's report?" ”

Cheng Lin looked at her in a daze, and then a piece of information came to his mind.

Only then did he "remember" that in the past four months, almost every day when he had a break, Qiao Ya would come to report to him.

It's just that Cheng Lin never said anything about it, and he didn't seem to listen to a word at all.

Rao is like this, but Qiao Ya is still like this every day.

These are the plots that have been quickly skipped over the course of four months.

When Cheng Lin saw Qiao Ya at this moment, he suddenly felt that her appearance was very familiar, so he stared quietly.

"Lord Prophet?"

Qiao Ya was uncomfortable by his gaze, and it took a while before she tentatively said, "Do you have something to order?" ”

Cheng Lin retracted his gaze, and a strange smile appeared on his face: "It's okay, if you want to report, just say it." ”

He finally remembered where this familiarity had come from.
