Chapter 42: The King of Heaven in Qizhou (I)

The sun hung high in the purple canopy, calmly radiating its light and heat.

With Yama on the spaceship, it became more popular, and not long after leaving Grand Island, Wang Fan remembered something, "Shanglin, you just told your uncle that there is a book called "The King of Heaven in Qizhou", I really want to see it, did you bring it?" ”

Shanglin replied, "I didn't bring the book, but I have already memorized the story in the book, and I can tell it to you and Zhen'er." ”

The kapok behind Wang Fan opened his voice and said: "I heard the story of the King of Heaven in Qizhou when I was very young, and now I have forgotten it, we are going to Qizhou now to do business, and we should listen to it again." ”

The volume of Kapok was too high, and Xinyan, who was squatting at the foot of Shanglin and was dreaming, was awakened, and it looked up at Kapok Zi with dissatisfaction and closed its eyes.

Ama sat on the side of Kapok and said very gently, "Cousin, I want to hear it one more time!" ”

Although Ah Hu was far away from the stern of the ship, Kapok's volume was high enough for Ah Hu to receive it word for word, and he sat up on the deck behind the ship and said in the same volume as Kapok: "In order to complete the mission, I need to know more information about Qizhou." ”

Kabayashi said, "Well, now that the wind is calm, let's let the hot air balloon float in the wind for a while." Listen to my grandfather's story in Qizhou. That book was written by the old historian who accompanied my grandfather on his voyage to Qizhou, and the book describes what happened in great detail and at length, and I tell you the part that impresses me the most, and you can say it at any time if you have any questions. And in order to make you feel the excitement of the original book as much as possible, I will tell the story according to the title of my grandfather in the book.

At the beginning of the book, it is written that after five years of joint efforts to make the people of the prairie stop fighting and live in peace, after the death of the princess god, the king worked hard with grief to help the five tribes establish five kingdoms each.

Because the princess god liked to see the purple sea of this world during his lifetime, the king of heaven established the princess city named after Princess Jane together with the people of the Geyin tribe on the seaside, and built the first princess temple in the prairie on a high ground in the city, so that Princess Jane could see the purple sea outside the city every day.

After five years of building Princess City, and another ten years, the Heavenly King built two large ships on the seaside pier outside the city to form a fleet to find his lost spaceship in Chizhou.

The two ships were loaded with food, water, leather clothing, leather shoes and other prairie specialties, and a hundred sailors were selected from the prairie countries to be strong and skilled soldiers, and the kings of each country sent an envoy to accompany the king to Qizhou.

The fleet of the Heavenly King arrived at Qizhou after twenty-five days of sailing, and the old historian wrote another book called "Navigation Log", which I can also memorize, and we are now flying according to the route of the Heavenly King's voyage back then.

After arriving at the coast of the mainland of Qizhou, the Heavenly King's fleet sailed upstream along a large river and headed inland in Qizhou. On both sides of the river are majestic mountains, and on the banks of the river they found the Chizhou people who lived in caves, that is, the green people of the ancient legends of the steppe, because their skin was green and their stature was shorter than that of our steppes.

The people of Qizhou were very frightened when they saw the tall and mighty grassland red men, and they hid in the cave and did not want to come out. Later, the king sent food and leather clothes to show their kindness, and finally they had the courage to crawl out of the cave and answer. They speak the same language as we speak in the old prairies.

They learned from their mouths that this big river is called Guhe, and these people who live on both sides of the river call themselves Guhe people, and they say that there is another green tribe called "Wanghai people" living on the seaside in the northeast of the river valley, and there is also a green tribe called "Tianling people" in the mountains and valleys in the southwest.

The king of heaven asked them if they had seen a large ball of fire falling from the sky twenty years ago, and the valley people said they had not.

The king ordered the fleet to continue upstream, and after two days of intermittent sailing, the fleet reached a mountain valley where a dazzling waterfall seemed to fall from the sky, and the ship could no longer move forward.

As there was no sign of anyone on either side of the river, the fleet turned around and returned to anchor on a bank not far from the mouth of the river.

Observing that there was a large open area on the north side of the riverbank, the Celestial King decided to build a few rows of houses there for the ship's people to live in, as the Celestial King had already decided to stay in Chizhou before going to find the ship.

While the king's soldiers were making bricks, burning tiles, and cutting wood to build houses on the shore, many green men stood and watched from a distance. The king told the old historian to tell them that they would be paid if they helped with the work.

At first, only a few brave young green men came to help, and when they finished their work, the old historian gave them some food and clothing as payment, and soon more and more green men asked for work.

The Heavenly King said to the old historian and the people around him that since there are so many Qizhou people who want to do things for us, let's just build another princess city here, there are more people coming and going, and there will definitely be people who know where the spaceship crashed.

The news that the Heavenly King was going to build a princess city quickly spread in the Qizhou Continent, and not only did the people of the Guhe tribe come in groups to sign up, but also the young people of the Hai tribe and the Tianling tribe also came. There were enough workers to build the city, and the soldiers of the king of heaven went to the sea to fish and hunt in the mountains to ensure that the people who built the city had good food and drink every day.

The construction site of Tianwang City is very lively every day, and soon the people of Qizhou are telling the story of the Heavenly King.

One day, an old man with a green man surrounded by a crowd of people begged to see the king.

He said, 'Heavenly King, I am the elder of the Guhe tribe, known as the Guandong Gong, and we were all very scared when the Heavenly King first came with the Prairie Red People, but now we know that the Heavenly King has brought us heavenly blessings. Look at this treasure robe on my body, it was given by my grandson to do things for the king of heaven. So many of us young people are so happy here that I have come to thank him. ’

The king of heaven said, 'Guandong Gong, sooner or later this city will be given to you Guhe people. This king needs your help with something, because this king has a treasure that fell from the sky to your Qizhou twenty years ago, and when it fell from the sky, it looked like a huge fireball, and when it fell to the ground, the earth shook. I hope that you and the people of your tribe can help this king find out where the treasure falls in Qizhou. ’

Guan Dong Gong said, "Heavenly King, I already know about this, although we Guhe people have not seen the Heavenly King's treasure descending from the sky, I have an idea to find the treasure for the Heavenly King. ’

When the king heard this, he was very happy and asked what the idea was.

Guan Dong Gong said: "Heavenly King, most of our Qizhou is mountainous, and there are many mages living in those high mountain caves, and their spells have been handed down from ancient times. It is said that practicing these spells can lead to immortality and become immortals. Although there are several schools of magicians, they are all proficient in herbs and healing. Ordinary people go to these mages to cast spells to eliminate disasters and cure diseases whenever we are born, old, sick and die, so these mages are well-informed even though they have been living in the mountains for many years. Moreover, they live in high mountains, and it is easier for us to see the treasures that fall from the sky than those of us who live in low-lying caves. As long as the Heavenly King summons these mages to the Heavenly King's Mansion and asks, he will know where the Heavenly King's treasure is. ’

The Heavenly King thought this was a good idea and asked Guan Dong Gong how he could invite these mages. Guan Dong Gong said: "The fame of the Heavenly King has spread all over Qizhou, and the Heavenly King only needs to promise to give some reward to every mage who comes to the Heavenly King's Mansion." ’

The king said, 'Please tell them that the king wants to see them perform spells, and the king will reward them according to their skills!' ’

At that time, it began to snow in the winter of Chizhou. On the appointed day, Guandong Gong came to the Heavenly King's Mansion with a group of mages. The king of heaven first gave each of the mages a sheepskin coat to protect them from the cold in winter, and the mages wore them with joy on their faces.

On this day, the snow stopped, the sky was clear, and the mountains were covered in a layer of silver. The king of heaven has asked people to set up a big stage in front of the palace of the king, the mages sit on the stage, the people who built the city have a day off, and the people of Qizhou who heard the news will surround the stage.

The mages performed a variety of spells, and the old historian recorded several of them in the book. There are two things that I am most interested in, one is phantom swordsmanship, the book says that the mage calls himself the mage of the clouds, his sword has a very strange shape called the magic sword, it contains strange herbs, he wields the sword for a while, his sword can emit smoke, and then he uses the magic sword as a pen, the smoke is ink, the air is cloth, and he draws in the air.

The other spell was Transfiguration, performed by an old mage who called himself Moon Mountain Fairy with one of his young apprentices. The old mage also held a magic sword in his hand, and the process of performing it looked similar to the phantom sword performance, but before the performance, the old mage and his apprentice both took a magical medicine. The smoke that came out from the top of the old mage's magic sword first shrouded his apprentice and no one could see it, and then the smoke was gradually absorbed by his body, and when the smoke disappeared, his apprentice turned into a villain and lay on the stage. ”

At this point, Kabayashi stopped to pick up a glass of water and drink water, because the warm wind blew hard and made his mouth dry.

Zhen'er asked anxiously, "Shanglin, what happened later?" Did the villain sect turn back into a human? ”

Shanglin put down the water glass and smiled at Zhen'er: "It must have changed back into a human, however, there is no writing in the book about how Yueshan Xiaoxian turned his apprentice back into a human, it is said that this is the secret of the old mage and cannot be performed publicly." ”

Jane was disappointed, and the rest of the audience was equally dissatisfied.
