Chapter 13: The Authority of the Lord God
Zhong Ming is not crazy, and he is very sober, this old man will behave too rationally in most cases (killing children for glory), so it is indeed a little more difficult to make him crazy.
The main reason why he will commit himself to serving Xiao Yao is because he feels that he is not following the wrong person, especially after getting Xiao Yao's fruit.
"You can't be wrong, that's ...... Yellowstone fruit. In a grass shed, Zhong Ming trembled and held the "snacks" that Xiao Yao gave him.
Wuliao and the Yuanque Dynasty fought for many years, and the military consumption on the northern front was huge, and the resources of the monks were controlled very strictly.
Since the elixir is brought back from the mountain by the monks every time they worship the mountain, the elixir is divided into nine grades according to the collection zone, the medicinal materials collected from the foot of the Purple Emperor Mountain are the lower three grades, the medicinal materials collected from the mountainside are the middle three grades, and the medicine collected from the top of the mountain is the upper three grades.
In addition to the lower three levels of elixirs that can be traded freely, the trading of middle and upper three levels of elixirs is illegal, and the elixirs smuggled in the black market are sky-high.
The Purple Emperor Mountain Range is 1,700 miles long and about 600 miles wide, and there are very few medicinal materials that can be brought back from the mountainside, not to mention the Huangshi fruit that can only be produced on the top of this mountain!
In other words, the snacks that Xiao Yao gave him casually were ten years of skill!
"This surnamed Xiao is so generous...... Zhong Ming had nothing to say, he only sliced and ground the Huangshi fruit, and refined it with auxiliary medicine into a golden pill and swallowed it: "I really didn't follow the wrong person!"
Xiao Yao said: Isn't this a wild fruit that is picked to satisfy hunger...... It's weird, it's not delicious at all.
If he didn't have water to drink, he would usually eat half of the fruit and throw it away, which was too noodle and hard to swallow like a dry eggplant. If Zhong Ming saw his way of eating, he would probably have angina.
It's not that Xiao Yao is wasting, but - these elixirs have no effect on him except to satisfy hunger. Maybe he'll change it for a five-ripe nailbone steak.
"At the moment...... What are you doing?"
After choosing the protagonist, Xiao Yao currently has to wait for the worship of the mountain to start, and then watch Wei Yifan come over to clear the customs. However, just when he thought he had plenty of time, time was already running out.
The real world, the editorial department of Yulong -
"Oh my God...... What the hell is that guy doing?" Qian took a stack of first drafts of "The Story of Worshipping Mountains in Kyushu", and after deleting the proofnotes, there were only three pages left: "This guy has been in for a few days, is he fishing!?"
The author's experience of entering other planes will be restored to the manuscript paper of the main world as words (or comics, scripts, etc.), which will be sorted out and published by the editors, and all the stories in this world are obtained in this way. The well-known pirates, ninjas, Middle-earth, and interstellar wars are all like this.
And this week's deadline for "The Story of Worshipping Mountains in Kyushu" is imminent, and the manuscript that can be used at present is only three pages - less than 2,000 words!
Brother Monkey and Huang Xiang are currently working as trainee assistants next to Qian, and when they saw their boss in a state of confusion, they both asked, "Xiao Yao, what's wrong with him?"
Qian looked at the two of them, and had an idea: "Hey, by the way, I already have an assistant, why did I forget this stubble, and I told you something, and I will do it for me immediately-"
............
On Xiao Yao's side, when he was still bored on the Purple Emperor Mountain, there was a loud noise in the air, and the two guys appeared in front of Xiao Yao in a posture of head and foot.
"Daxian descended-" Xiao Yao turned over and shook up from the temporary hammock with a harrier, and looked at it fixedly: "Oh, it turned out to be you two." β
The three of them had a hard time together, and of course they exchanged pleasantries for a long time after the gathering, and both sides expressed envy for each other's circumstances.
Xiao: "What!?You work in the editorial department!?I want to go too, you know, there's no toilet paper here!"
Monkey and Huang: "What? When you are the main god here, you can't even make paper? I'm afraid you're not losing your mind!"
In short, after exchanging words, let's talk about business.
"I think your progress is too slow, the deadline is the day after tomorrow, and you will have to push the main line within two days today and tomorrow. β
"What, I've had a lot of trouble finding a protagonist, and what kind of main line is it, he just talks empty words, this old boy is really good...... I'm using a causal prophecy here, and I'm pushing the line for him at that end?"
"He knows. Brother Monkey took out a small stack of manuscript paper: "So he asked us to bring this to you." β
"What?" Xiao Yao took it and looked at it, and found that it was full of dictionary-like word explanations, and guessed: "Setup information?"
Huang Xiang took out a stack of character illustrations: "There are also the permissions available to you at the moment." β
Generally speaking, these contents are developed by the author himself in the world, but Xiao Yao is chasing ducks to the shelves this time, so he can only use the editing power to give him some privileges and teach him to use the main god authority in the plane.
The power of the main god is actually far beyond Xiao Yao's imagination-
The two of them came over to send something, and there were still a lot of things to do, so they had to leave in a hurry when it was over, but it was said that Xiao Yao could go back to the main world to rest for a while after this period passed.
Xiao Yao had enough of staying in this world without toilet paper, so he cheered up and started working.
"First of allβ" Xiao Yao looked at the information brought by the two.
It's basically the message of the Purple Emperor's Lonely Mountain.
From the background of the story, it seems that the history of the Purple Emperor's Lonely Mountain is quite deep: the world of Kyushu stands on the sea of nothingness, and this sea is floating in the clouds.
The Kyushu Continent should not have existed in the first place, and the nine Buzhou Mountains condensed the land in the mist, so it is said that the Nine Peaks are the pillars that support the entire continent. Among them, the Purple Emperor Lonely Mountain is a big mountain in the middle of the Nine Peaks, with countless treasures and resources, all over the formation enchantment, and the interior of the mountain - there are countless bunkers?
The more Xiao Yao looked, the more he felt that the scale of the story was huge, and after reading the information for several hours, Xiao Yao called out a name: "Cen." β
Huang Cen is the chief of the mountain, that is, the first assistant of the mountain spirit.
"Cen, on the ......" call, a voice appeared in front of Xiao Yao.
Looking at the person in front of him, Xiao Yao shed a drop of cold sweat: "Uh......"
That Cen was the protagonist for dozens of minutes: a dog at the beginning!
"You!?" Xiao Yao looked at the earth dog that was squatting upright: "You ......"
The dog's mouth spat out: "Do I have any omissions? β
No wonder there will be a dog at the beginning! This kind of fairyland-like place, Xiao Yao's god-like identity, it is impossible to see a stray dog on the city street at the beginning, but a dog god!
Cen saw that Xiao Yao had been frowning and pondering, and his expression was sometimes hideous and sometimes uncomfortable, and said in panic: "Your Excellency, what are your orders, is there anything wrong with the mountains?"
"Ahem...... You...... You ...... this" Xiao Yao lowered his head and talked to a dog, feeling too awkward, and asked, "The spirits in the mountains, can they transform into shapes?"
The yellow dog bowed his head and said, "Your Excellency, when you use your human body, all living beings in the mountains cannot use your human body. If Your Excellency needs me to take shape, I should obey it. β
Xiao Yao realized what the identity of the main god was at this moment, and nodded: "It's okay, you turn into a human form first." β
"Yes. β
Subsequently, Xiao Yao saw a young chivalrous warrior with a Tang knife hanging from his waist, his neat blonde hair tied up, and only the color of loyalty and courage remained between his eyebrows, meticulous and silent.
Xiao Yao carefully observed the image of this dog god and wondered, "Why are you ...... In a military uniform?"
Cen is currently wearing a capable light armor, and the long knife is also out of the sheath.
"Protect Your Excellency's safety. Cen seemed to have something to say, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed again.
"Say whatever you want. β
Hearing this, Cen immediately fell to the ground: "A few days ago, when Venerable went down the mountain, Cen felt that evil worship had entered his body for a while, and then he was weak and collapsed (the protagonist's identity was withdrawn). If you fail to follow after a few days of poor guarding, it is a capital crime, please punish you. β
"This ......" Xiao Yao suddenly felt sweating: It seems to be my problem......
"Ahem!" Xiao Yao changed the subject: "This is not the time to punish you!"
Cen Dog was stunned for a moment, got up and said, "Yes, my subordinates are foolish...... Your Excellency has important matters that need to be dealt with urgently, and please give me orders. β
"Within two quarters of an hour, the four spirits of the 'Emperor and Queen Earth' will gather. The location is set in ...... Temple of the Purple Emperor. β
"Yes. Cen bowed back a few steps, turned around and jumped away, and disappeared in an instant.
"And thenβ" Xiao Yao took out a drawing and slowly recited the incantation underneath the drawingβ
The second spine, which dominates the peaks, the second spine, which overrides the peaks, and the second spine, which leads the peaks.
Ten thousand mountains and nine states are looking for traces, and the heavens and stars are in the middle of ten thousand.
Puff knock - puff knock - puff knock -
It was as if the heart of the mountain was pacing, and after a few times, a blue-white nine-section scepter appeared in Xiao Yao's hand.
The scepter is called the Second Spine, not so much as its name, but its status. In this mountain, this scepter represents the second spine of the mountain, which is another form of the mountain.
The scepter as a whole has nine, symbolizing the nine areas of the Purple Emperor Mountain, each section is a large cave sky, and its material is almost no grade at all, because there are countless elixirs and treasures within each cave sky.
Xiao Yao's thumb rubbed the nine-section scepter: "Send me there, Purple Emperor Temple." Xiao Yao ordered, and the top of the scepter flashed slightly, and Xiao Yao had been sent to a solemn hall, and the scepter sent Xiao Yao straight to the throne.
The structure of the temple is a convex shape, high in the north and low in the south, Xiao Yao's seat is at the highest point in the north, there are two steps under the seat, and at the bottom is a square platform, corresponding to the four directions of the mountain.
There are no people on the platform yet, and there is a row of guards quietly guarding the stairs, a total of nine people, collectively known as Jiuyao. In Kyushu, each mountain is guarded by Jiuyao, and in terms of setting, it is the son of the mountain spirit, and it belongs completely to his own people.
Xiao Yao looked at the person headed by Jiuyao: "Rahu." β
Rahu bowed his head: "Yes." β
Xiao Yao looked at the information in his hand, which only contained the information of the second spine, and said, "I want to ask...... The second spine is in my hand, so where is the first spine?"
Hearing this, Jiu Yao's face was embarrassed, and he knelt down on one knee together, bowing his head and saying nothing.
"Huh?"
Just when Xiao Yao was wondering, a voice replied: "The first backbone of the lonely mountain is naturally the supreme, this is an undoubted fact. β
A pointy-faced man with a two-pronged moustache quietly appeared below.
Here's the point-
The main line, the person in charge of the mountain worship incident.
At the same time, the four people who are currently the most powerful in the mountains and the most likely to rebel have already arrived.
