Crossing the Atlas (5)
She got up and looked around, carved wooden beds, green gauze tents, landscape ink painting screens, rosewood tables and chairs. The room looked nice and made her feel comfortable.
The only fly in the ointment was the little dough on the table that was stuffed with pastries like a hungry ghost.
Shu Youluan walked to the dresser, picked up the bronze mirror and looked at the face of this body, and found that it looked very similar to herself.
"Hmm......"
The starving ghost Jiuxiu finished eating a plate of pastries and cleared his throat, "Ahem, listen up, now Uncle Ben will tell you about this world and the Prime Minister's Mansion, so as not to have time to go." β
"Although you are now in an alternate dynasty, everything here is real."
After a pause, he continued in a low voice: "So you will also die in this time and space, but if you put a hundred hearts on this, you will definitely not die with Uncle Ben." β
Shu Youluan raised his eyebrows, "Just a small one like you?" Forget it, and you're questioning my ability to protect myself? β
Jiu Xiu began to mouth at another plate of pastries again, "Sort of, after all, you were rescued by Uncle Ben once a few hours ago." β
"And Uncle Ben, I'm not small, this is just my original god, Uncle Ben's real body is very tall and handsome!"
Next, Jiu Xiu told Shu Youluan about this continent.
It turns out that this is the ancient dynasty continent, which is divided into five countries: with the Shuling State where she is currently located as the center, the East Jing Kingdom in the east, the South Que Kingdom in the south, the North Imperial Kingdom in the north, and the Western Warring States in the west.
And in this era, regardless of gender or family background, strength is respected. In other words, strength determines status, and the higher the strength, the higher the status.
Every five years, there will be a strength selection competition, and the content of the competition includes: force, talent, cultivation, and appearance.
Each country will have a specific arena, and the final arena is in the largest square in the Pivoting King City, through which the highest status is selected.
As long as the strength is strong enough, even if the king is in this position, he can have it.
The advantage of this format is that it is very fair and can be attended by both men and women, young and old.
But the strange thing is that none of the five kings of the five countries on the continent of the ancient dynasty have been squeezed down, the reason is that their strength is unfathomable, and there were people who wanted to challenge before, but they all failed.
Force, no matter which country's king is compared, is thrown out of the ring with one move.
Compared with talent, a large group of girls defected.
Compared with self-cultivation, the kings' acting skills are outstanding.
than appearance, let alone that person, that person is not qualified to be a green leaf. So over time, everyone acquiesced to the kings of the five kingdoms, admired them, and revered them.
The challenge of powerful people stopped when they reached the level of ministers, after all, who wants to be abused!
The kings also had a quiet time, and the game was really the most troublesome.
As for why they want to be this king, it is also an accident.
Here is the suffering of the kingsβ
At first, they were just there to play around and see who was the strongest.
But later, when he was fighting, he was watched by many people, and then he became the king of various countries, and finally waited for another ten years, but he didn't expect those people to be listless at all, and with a wave of his hand, they were all thrown out of the stage.
So the beast lords succeeded in guarding and becoming kings again.
At that time, except for Shinosaki, all the other beasts collapsed.
