Chapter 182: Canonization
Xia Xu retreated with his troops and left the territory of the demon clan!
What is left behind are all the unsightly stumps and broken arms of the demon clan!
Xia Xu brought all the demon pills back to the Middle Wilderness City!
At this moment, in the middle of the desert city, there is a huge God of War Castle standing next to it!
In the middle of the wilderness city, all the people in the city walked out of their homes, and the streets and alleys, inside and outside the city gates, were all full of people!
There is also the Fort of the God of War, except for the people who have to run and maintain the operation of the castle, everyone else has also put down their less important work, and they all go out of the city and line up in a uniform formation!
They are all waiting for someone!
They are all welcoming a big hero in their hearts!
They are all waiting for this great and incredible yet legendary man!
They're all waiting!
They are waiting for Xia Xu!
They are waiting for the owner of this deserted territory!
They are waiting for the deputy marshal of the Eastern Sui Kingdom, the lord of the barren territory, the new marquis of the Eastern Sui Kingdom, the master of the God of War Castle, the Rock Army, the Zhenbei Army, the supreme commander of the Shence Army, the great man who led the people of the Barren Mountains to fight against the demon clan and kill the demon clan, chased and killed the Bull Demon King Qianli, and at the same time killed the strong man of the demon king Shura orangutan, made the southern part of the demon clan fearful, and let the other lords of the Eastern Sui Kingdom talk about Xia Xu!
Yes, Xia Xu is back!
Xia Xu is back with supreme glory!
What is glory?!
A habit that deserves or can earn high praise, glory, brilliance or appreciation, a good reputation or social fame.
That's glory!
Xia Xu's glory is his canonized status and title, and the tens of thousands of demon pills he brought back!
The body is fast and light, and the glory is Chunhua!
"There is a beautiful woman in the south, and she is as beautiful as a peach and plum...... The age is twilight, and the glory is difficult to live for a long time. ”
You don't see the willow in front of the door, and Rong Yao is temporarily depressed for a long time.
"When the flowers bloom on the day of death, glory will be poor. ”
Wealth and glory.
Stealing the rank of marquis, Rong Yao is in the world.
The glory of the world is shallow, and the quiet smell of the forest is deep. The worries gradually disappear and the white grows, and the heart of a year is better than the heart of the year.
"Born from the love of the day, the glory of the day, in and out of the car clothes, the banquet guests, second to the king. ”
"There is no wealth in the world, and it seems that the glory of the king is really rare. ”
The glory of the world, Xu Shan people are no longer stored in their teeth and cheeks.
Those who hear honor and are not happy, and those who suffer sorrow and remain unchanged will also judge people.
Corporal Ji talked about Kong Mo, the above-mentioned Xiyan, the tree is the same and different, and it distinguishes between right and wrong!
Honor the woodwoods, for which the leaves are cultivated, and the beauty is ruined and turned into flaws.
What an honor!
In the eyes of everyone, Xia Xu, this kid who came out of the wilderness mountain village, suddenly became a blockbuster and did a great career in a row!
Sensational!
Shocking the seven!
Remarkable!
This is a blessing for the people of the entire barren territory!
It's a gift!
Gifts, in this Longchen Continent, in this era of the jungle, are really rare!
Gifts, it's like having parents again!
Xia Xu is the reborn parent who saved everyone in the barren mountains!
That's the gift!
Fortunately, the gift is special.
Yuanzhen inherits a new life, Wang Cheng does not pretend to urge;
The gift follows the Jiajie, and the merit is only dusty.
The night has been blessed again, and it is not appropriate to bother!
This gift is like a gift from God!!
Xia Xu has become a god in the hearts of some people!
This is a gift from God!
Emphasize that spiritual gifts are the gift of God's grace.
A spiritual gift is not an innate ability, but a gift from God to believers.
This use of the word can be seen in chapter 12, where Paul speaks of spiritual gifts given to believers through the gifts given to me.
There can be a simple definition of a spiritual gift, it is a gift of grace!
In ancient times, people were very sure of the god of gifts!
In the distant primeval times, there was such a god who blessed the human race!
Gods, with holy books!
The miracles in the holy books are a big topic and should be studied separately.
Throughout the holy book, miracles did not occur by chance, but occurred mainly in three periods: in the days of Moses and Joshua, in the days of Elijah and Elisha, and in the days of Christ and the apostles.
These are all small times, small stages contained in the primeval era!
Outside of these periods, there were intermittent miracles, but they were not many.
Miracles are used to prove a message, and God has used His messengers to perform wonderful miracles in support of their new messages in the different times mentioned above. The miracles of the New Testament were used to confirm the teachings of the apostles. When the canon of the Bible is complete, the miracles are no longer needed, the miracles are fading, and the authority of God's Word is sufficient to confirm the words of the messengers.
A distinction should also be made between the gift of miracles and miracles. Although the gift of miracles—the ability of individuals to exercise signs and wonders—has ceased after the apostolic age, this is not to say that miracles are no longer possible today.
God can directly answer the prayers of believers and perform miracles in his life. God can also promise prayers for the sick to be healed. But God does not use another person as a medium to perform miracles.
A distinction must be made between the gift of healing and the healing itself. Like other miraculous gifts, the gift of healing ceased after the completion of the canon of the Bible, and was no longer needed. But God can still answer the prayers of His children and heal people's diseases, but this does not require any other intermediary and God can heal people directly.
This gift includes the burden of lost souls. Those who have this gift must have a deep desire to see others saved.
This gift includes the preaching of the good news. Evangelism is the preaching of the good news, and famous evangelists such as Billy Graham certainly have the gift of evangelism, but we should not limit this gift to the work of evangelism to the masses. Evangelists can also share the gospel with unbelievers on a personal basis.
This gift can make the gospel clear. Evangelists are able to make the gospel clear and simple!
He preached on the basic needs of salvation: sin, death in lieu of death, faith, forgiveness, reconciliation - so that the gospel could be understood by unbelievers who did not have knowledge of the Holy Book.
This gift includes a response to the preaching of the gospel.
A person who has the gift of evangelism receives a response to the preaching of the gospel, and that response indicates that he has the gift.
All in all, it's a blessing for the people of the entire Barren Territory!
This is the blessing they cultivated in their previous lives!
Blessings are so important for a person!
The Longchen Continent has valued this since ancient times!
"At the beginning of the country, the king of Hanlin served the book, and it was not easy to get it with a round pen, such as a rich and noble family, not without blessings, but the disease was in the rhyme. ”
He said some good things, but he was so blessed.
Even if not, he was born with these blessings.
The male corpse swallows to drink, and Fu Lu comes to become.
In ancient times, there was a famous saying: "If you have merit, you will increase your reward, and you will not be appointed to the office, so you will protect your blessings, and there will be no condemnation." ”
"The trouble and glory are still over, and the good leisure and happiness are even more difficult to sell. ”
"Don't make mistakes, don't be complacent, don't dare to slack off, don't be idle, God bestows all kinds of blessings. ”
The poem is a small mandarin duck, a gentleman for ten thousand years, and Fu Lu is appropriate.
In the world of Huainan Zi, the gentleman gave his way and returned to the blessings.
Xia Xu, surrounded by a large group of henchmen, entered the Middle Desert City.
All the people inside and outside the city are on their knees!!
They worship from the heart!
Because they all know that if it weren't for Xia Xu, they would have died a long time ago!
In the middle of the wilderness city, it is even more dazzling than any major festivals and activities in the past!
Even the day when the new emperor ascended the throne was not as festive and warm as it is now!
It can be seen that Xia Xu's status in people's hearts!
Xia Xu came directly to the City Lord's Hall in the city!
Xia Xu sat at the head of the main hall.
Below are the henchmen of all stripes.
Fangs and Xue Liu were on Xia Xu's side, these two were now the commanders of Xia Xu's henchmen killer organization, and they were the elite of the elite!
Xue Liu is also a realm overlord now!
The demon clan overlords killed in the territory of the demon clan, their demon pill was passed back by Xia Xu with a flying pigeon for the first time, and it was given to Xue Liu and the others!
Fangs have also improved a lot, he is a second-realm overlord!
And the first place on the left hand side below Xia Xu is Wang Shengnan!
After his own hard work, Wang Shengnan has also become a realm overlord! This is also the help of the demon pill!
Xia Xu looked at Wang Shengnan, who had been looking at Xia Xu with adoration and eyes!
Xia Xu said aloud: "I am now the deputy marshal of the country, and I have the right to appoint and dismiss him, and I now officially canonize Wang Shengnan as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army in the barren territory town, and the official worships the general, and is the viscount!"
As soon as these words came out, applause rang out!
In fact, Xia Xu has no right to be canonized, but as long as Xia Xu is willing, no one can control it!
What's more, this little thing like a viscount and baron, of course the emperor of the Eastern Sui Kingdom will not say anything!
The viscount is already a title second only to the marquis, and now Xia Xu canonized Wang Shengnan as a viscount, which is enough to see his trust in Wang Shengnan!
Wang Shengnan is also very excited!
She actually became a viscount!
In this way, Wang Shengnan can also be regarded as a glorious ancestor!
Especially Wang Shengnan was appointed as the general of Zhenbei!
Xia Xu is now the deputy marshal of the Eastern Sui Kingdom, and he no longer needs the title of general, so he gave the reward to Wang Shengnan!
"General Wang Shengnan, the Zhenbei army in command of the barren territory! The military power of the Panshi Army is temporarily handed over to General Xue Liuliu!" Xia Xu continued.
"Xue Liu serves as the Great General of Weiyuan in my barren territory! Commanding the Shadow Attack Troops, as well as the Rock Army! In addition, canonize Xue Liu as a viscount!"
Xue Liu, also became a viscount!
"Fangs serve as the mighty general of my barren territory! Command the Reaper team! Canonize Fangs as viscount!"
"Li Xiaochun, as the general of Shence, commands the Shence army of the God of War Castle! canonize Li Xiaochun as a baronesse!"
Li Xiaochun is also a realm overlord now, Xia Xu gave her a lot of good demon pills!
And Xia Xu canonized her as a baroness!
"The Divine Ce Army and the Rock Army must be expanded to 50,000 horses per army in a short period of time!"
Xia Xu continued to issue orders.
"Chi Wenliang, the guard of the God of War Castle, is knighted! Allow him to run jazz dance and jazz music!"
Chi Wenliang, originally not a general, he is a dancer and musician!
Later, due to the war, he became a soldier, and he performed well and became a general!
Xia Xu knows how to use talents, and knows how to live!
Terran life cannot live without music and dance!
It just so happens that Chi Wenliang has a talent in this area!
"I want all the people of my territory to enjoy a good life! A good life includes dance and music!"
Jazz, it's not ordinary!
After Xia Xu came back, Baron Chi Wenliang also specially danced this dance for Xia Xu, and used his own new instrument to play this jazz repertoire!
Chi Wenliang's jazz originated from the early gods he studied!
In the early bands, the musicians were mostly craftsmen of some kind, carpenters, bricklayers, tailors, etc., or those who made music on weekends or holidays and earned a small amount of money.
And Chi Wenliang's mentor, he is a hairdresser.
He played the cornet and later formed a band. He was probably the first to combine roots, rough blues with traditional band music, a step that would be significant in the history of jazz development. He was admitted to a psychotic episode during a parade and spent the rest of his life in a psychiatric hospital for recalcitrant patients.
Huangling Psychiatric Hospital is the largest medical institution in Huangling!
He is said to have recorded a record, but it has not been confirmed so far.
What we know about his music comes from the memories of other musicians who listened to him when they were younger.
Many people, including some long-time jazz fans, believe that the early jazz musicians were self-taught geniuses, that they could neither read music nor have taken a day of music lessons.
Chi Wenliang, also want to promote music lessons in the God of War Castle!
This statement is more than romantic, but it is a thousand fallacies.
Almost all of the important figures in early jazz were at least solid in terms of orthodox musical foundations, and some of them were even more accomplished.
Nevertheless, their innovative spirit in the use of their instruments is unique. The most significant example is Chi Wenliang's master, Wei Chi is respectful!
He was a corton player and bandleader. He used everything he could find, including drinking glasses, buckets of sand, and plastic plugs in bathtubs, to make his cornet blow in a variety of timbre variations.
The absence of muted equipment allows him to take pride in being the brightest cornetist in the Wild Mountains.
Many important jazz musicians left the barren mountains and went south, both white and black.
The reason for this is not the closure of the notorious red-light district of Badlands, but simply the economy.
The perennial war had brought industry to the south of the Wasteland to flourish, and these musicians flocked to the south, along with the millions of workers, where they were guaranteed to find a better job.
In the tunes of jazz, in addition to the elements drawn from traditional music, white folk songs and popular songs, the most distinctive is the "blues scale", and the harmony of jazz can be said to be completely based on traditional harmony, only with a more free use of various variations of chords, the main difference of which is also brought by blues chords.
When Xia Xu entered the Middle Desert City, Chi Wenliang played incomparably beautiful jazz music!
Jazz is very distinctive in terms of the instruments used and the way it is played, and it is completely different from traditional bands. Since the "Jazz Age", the saxophone has become one of the most sold instruments!
The trombone is a big hit in jazz bands because it can play funny or grotesque glissandos that other brass instruments can't!
The trumpet is also the preferred instrument of jazz musicians, and the combination of different mutes produces a novel timbre and a few notes in the highest register, which is almost a unique timbre characteristic of jazz!
Pianos, banjos, guitars, and later electric guitars occupy an important place with their percussive power and ability to play chords. On the contrary, the violin, viola, and cello, the most important string instruments in traditional orchestras, are relatively relegated, and the rich sound of the French horn is fascinating in an orchestra, but it is too docile for a jazz orchestra to be used by almost no one in the orchestra. In an orchestra, each instrument is controlled in terms of timbre and volume as much as possible to blend into the overall sound, but in a jazz orchestra the opposite, where the musicians strive to make each instrument "stand up".
The orchestra is very flexible, and the basic is two parts - the rhythm group and the melody group. In the early jazz bands, the rhythm group consisted of the horn, banjo and drums, and later the tuba and banjo were gradually replaced by double basses and guitars, and pianos were added.
A dance music band, then called the "Big Band", arose and consisted of three parts: a rhythm group, a brass group, and a woodwind group. The instruments used in the rhythm section are still double basses, guitars, pianos, and drums, and the brass section is usually composed of three trumpets and two trombones, but this number is not fixed; the woodwind group usually consists of four or five saxophones, each of which plays the clarinet or other woodwind instruments, and if the orchestration is five saxophones, it is usually two alto, two tenora, and one upper bass. There is also a commercial band, sometimes called "sweet", "hotel", etc., which is similar to the "big band", but the saxophone is often all tenor, and the woodwind group will use more other instruments, such as flutes, oboees, and sometimes three or four violins, and the sound of such bands can often be heard in commercial tapes.
Another great feature of jazz compared to traditional music is its articulation and timbre, whether it is an instrument or a vocal, which is enough that people will never confuse it with the timbre of any traditional music. Most of these peculiarities come from the imitation of Afro-American folk songs with instruments or vocals. If we have the opportunity to hear real black field songs and spiritual songs, we will find how distinctive and touching those drastic changes from rough to sleek, from suffocating to loud, from harsh to feminine, from savage to lyrical. And in jazz, non-singing roars, shouts and moans are added to accentuate this feeling. In addition, special playing and singing techniques are also important means of creating specific effects, and the most common of these techniques is the vibrato, which is different from the traditional concept. We know that vibrato is a regular change in pitch, and sometimes it can be caused by a regular change in dynamics, such as the kneading of the violin, which uses this change to produce a vibrant sound effect.
The vibrato in jazz is varied, and the direction of change is generally from narrow to wide, from slow to fast, and often the amplitude and speed of the jitter are increased near the end of a note, which enhances the expressiveness of this technique. At the same time, at the beginning of a note, the jazz players slide from the bottom up to the predetermined pitch, and at the end, slide down from the original pitch. All of these variations cannot be recorded in detail with sheet music, and experienced jazz musicians have mastered this type of method, especially the notion that they can "manufacture" these effects according to different melodies or accompaniment patterns. Thus it can be said that jazz is created by composers and musicians together due to the tradition of improvisation and the individual play of technique. The reason why it is difficult for traditionally educated musicians to perform jazz is because they have not cultivated such a special concept of music. If we carefully compare the difference between a real folk singer and a formally trained singer singing the same folk song, we will have a more intuitive idea of what this means.
As a result, the spiritual level of the Fort de Mars has also been popularized!
So far, Xia Xu has canonized a total of four viscounts and four generals!
Viscount Fang, the official worships the mighty general, and leads the Grim Reaper squad!
Viscount Xue Liu, the official worships General Weiyuan, commanding the Shadow Attack Force and the Rock Army!
Baron Wang Sheng, the official worships the general of Zhenbei, and commands the army of Zhenbei! That is, all the armies before the barren territory!
Baroness Li Xiaochun, the official worships the general of the gods, and leads the gods of the castle of war!
Here, there are four generals, but there are only three viscounts, and Xia Xu canonized a total of four viscounts, so what about the fourth?
Yin Qiu, of course!
Xia Xu is in the main hall of the city lord of Zhonghuang City, and continues to issue appointments!
"Canonize Yin Qiu as a viscount, take charge of all the finances and affairs of the territory, and appoint Yin Qiu as the Minister of General Affairs of the Barren Territory!"
This canonization is too powerful!
What an exaggeration!
He even appointed a local official as the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications!
You know, in other territories, in addition to the lord, the number one is also a territory manager, or the chief executive!
But the rights and scope that Xia Xu gave Yin Qiu are really too big!
And Yin Qiu is also a mystic now!
At his age, he was able to cultivate to the Xuan Realm, and Xia Xu was his real reborn parent!
This is Xia Xu's trust in Yin Qiu, and it is also Xia Xu's self-confidence!
Xia Xu is very sure of Yin Qiu's loyalty!
And Xia Xu is also 100% sure, if Yin Qiu dares to rebel, Xia Xu will kill him in seconds as soon as possible!
In addition, there is also Chi Wenliang, the defender of the God of War Castle.
"Appoint Chi Wenliang as a baron, continue to serve as the mobile commander of the God of War Castle, and worship General Fuyuan!"
"Chi Wenliang receives the order, Chi Wenliang thanks Lord Longen! We must live up to our mission and master all the mysteries of the construction and manipulation of the Fort of War!"
Chi Wenliang was grateful, and he hurriedly bowed down!
"In this way, I have already arranged everything that should be arranged, so you can just do it!"
Xia Xu stood up, and the other henchmen also stood up.
"The most important thing is the troops, the Knights of the Desolation have suffered a lot of losses this time, only 10,000 troops are left, and they are trained by the three demon fox sisters. ”
"In addition, there are the Rock Army and the Shence Army, which must be expanded to 50,000 troops each before I return!
"Lord, how many people do you bring with you to the capital?" Wang Shengnan was worried about Xia Xu's safety.
"I'll go alone!" Xia Xu sneered, "Now the demon clan is definitely gathering troops, but they won't attack in a short time, it's a month fast, two or three months slow, and they will be overwhelmed by a large army!"
Xia Xu's eyes were sharp, "But by that time, we will also be fully prepared!"
