Chapter 52: Miracles Appear
As soon as Ashina left, Li Jing immediately called his cronies and asked them to find a suitable place and quietly dig a pit.
Then, several layers of beans are poured into the pit, a stone statue is placed on top of the beans, and then covered with loose floating soil.
Then, let people take advantage of the time when no one is around, water on it, water seeps into the floating soil, soak the beans, after soaking in water, the beans will sprout and expand, don't underestimate the growth of these bean sprouts, enough to cover the stone statue on top of the floating soil.
When the stone statue shows its head, it is the time to show miracles, and it is also the moment when Li Jing takes the stage to perform.
When the entire stone statue is pushed out, he will use the system space to conjure the food out of thin air, as long as he wants, he can make the food appear anywhere, and even bring special effects!
On the second day of the siege of Tubo, Zongshu's grain team met the Tubo army ten miles away from Fuqi City, and a skirmish broke out between the two sides, and Zongshu dropped the grain and grass and retreated.
He wanted to convey the news of this place to Batu.
The Tubo army did not pursue, but returned to the camp after looting the grain and grass, and told the news of the encounter with the Tang army to the Qinling.
On Qinling's face was solemn when he heard this, but fortunately, he had already made arrangements, and all the units of the Tang Army outside were restrained, and they could not return to help within a month.
According to the news sent back by Xizuo, there is not enough food and grass in Fu Qi City, and he can't support it for even half a month, as long as he can take Fu Qi City within a month, the victory still belongs to him. So he sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and didn't panic at all!
A few days later, there was a news in the city, spread all over the streets and alleys, and a stone statue actually grew in the ground, and everyone ran over to watch, it was actually a small Buddha statue.
A group of soldiers separates the crowd, separating the crowd from the stone statue.
"How can a Buddha statue grow in this ground, and a Buddha statue is not a plant, it can grow from the ground."
"Yes! It's really weird! The Buddha statue is not enshrined in the temple, how did it run to the ground? ”
"Could it be that this is the manifestation of the Buddha, I heard that His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is the true dragon son of heaven, and there was a scene of a real dragon coiling in the sky of the Central Plains, and at that time, it appeared in the sky above the place where the regent appeared."
"Really?"
"I've heard of it too, but if you listen to what others say, you shouldn't be wrong!"
"So, the regent is a messenger sent from heaven to earth? What does this have to do with the apparitions of the Buddha? ”
"It's hard to say, if the Buddha really appears, all the Buddha statues will definitely come out of the soil in a few days, and then you will know everything!"
"Then we'll wait and see!"
In order to show that this is a miracle, Li Jing sent people to disguise themselves and blend into the crowd to publicize that Li Jing is the true dragon son of heaven, the chosen son of heaven sent by God, and this miracle is also closely related to Li Jing!
For several days, a small part of the Buddha statue would grow out of the soil, and it was not until the third day that people found out that the Buddha statue seemed to be holding a stone tablet with words inscribed on it.
Only the first row of words was revealed, and the others were still buried in the soil, and everyone was itching, eager to dig out the Buddha statue immediately, but they didn't dare to be disrespectful to the Buddha!
Everyone could only be in a hurry, and waited for several days before the Buddha statue was completely revealed.
The Buddha statue holds a stone tablet in his left hand, with a passage written on it, the specific content is that Li Jing, the regent of the Tang Dynasty, is the true dragon son of heaven, sent by God to save the suffering Tuyuhun people, for the encounter of Fu Qi City, God has sensed that tomorrow God will rain down food to help Fu Qi City through the difficulties.
Everyone was very surprised when they found out, they had seen heavy rain, heavy snow, and hail from the sky, but they had never seen this grain from the sky.
After a day and a night of fermentation, everyone still had a trace of doubt about the food falling from the sky.
Early the next morning, Li Jing was ready to let his cronies once again publicize that Li Jing was the chosen son, and that God could drop food from heaven, all for the sake of the face of Li Jing, the regent of the people.
At noon, when everyone was waiting a little impatiently, they saw a bang, as if something had fallen from the sky.
When everyone looked around, they saw a cloud of glow not far away, and there were bags of things in the glow.
A few young men rushed over and opened the bag to find that it was actually food.
"Oh! OMG! It's really food!"
A guy exclaimed!
The people around immediately rushed up, unbelievable, God really rained food from the sky?
It's really the blessing of the Buddha, it's really the Buddha's manifestation that rained down the grain, and they finally don't have to worry about being besieged and killed by Tubo!
Li Jing stood in the distance from a tall building and watched this scene, showing a hint of a smile.
This is the effect he wants, as long as they believe in the food from the sky, they will believe in the stone tablet in the stone statue's hand, and in the future, the Tuyuhun people will become his loyal supporters of Li Jing.
"Just why is there only a bag of grain?"
When someone asks a question, Heaven immediately responds and gives him an answer.
The sky shone brightly, and bags of grain fell from the sky, avoiding the crowd, and all fell into an open place, and in the glow, the sound of the dragon's groan could be faintly heard.
Soon the grain piled up, and everyone cheered when they saw it!
As Li Jing sent someone to render it, the residents of Fu Qi City became more convinced that Li Jing was the true dragon emperor, and there was nothing wrong with following Li Jing together!
Li Jing sent Ashina to send grain to the granary and distribute the grain uniformly to avoid extravagance and waste.
With sufficient food, the residents of the city are much more relieved, and they no longer worry about being trapped in the city and starving to death.
This makes many people breed a lazy temperament, anyway, there is no food, God will give it, there will always be endless food, what kind of work to do, so tired, it is better to lie down and be comfortable!
For such people, Li Jing will not get used to them, and directly arrest them as strong men, to see if they are still lazy!
As for whether they will resist, Li Jing is not worried at all, because arresting them is all in accordance with God's will, and God sends down food, not to make them lazy.
The vision that appeared in the sky above the city also attracted the attention of the Tubo army outside the city.
In the Tibetan army, from the generals to the soldiers, they were all discussing whether the vision in the sky was a sign that their god was a sign of a more powerful enemy was about to appear.
On Qinling is not a resident of the city, he will be bluffed by the so-called vision, although he is also religious, but he is not to the point of blindness.
On Qinling's order, it is forbidden for anyone in the army to criticize this matter, and if anyone dares not to listen, they will be severely punished!
Then he called the generals and reprimanded them, telling them not to think nonsense, that victory would eventually be theirs, and that what they had to do now was to cheer up and think about what to do in order to take the city, instead of discussing some inconsequential matters.
