Planeswalker My Plane War

Chapter 234 Preparations for God's War 3
When Huang Gong said this, he stopped.

The things about the Zhou family are not suitable for him, a courtier of the Zhou family, to say.But the meaning is obvious.Xiashi established the dynasty by virtue of his great contributions to the world. This contribution could have been conferred on the gods, so the status of the emperor Xiashi is comparable to that of the gods.Yin Shang relied on the secret support of the gods to overthrow the Xia Dynasty and establish a dynasty, so it would be a head short in front of the gods.In order to avoid the constraints of the gods, the main thing is to rely on the power of the emperor spirit.As for the Zhou family, it was only by the power of the gods that they could eliminate the emperor spirit and overthrow the Yin and Shang Dynasties, so the status of this "son of heaven" is self-evident.

Hou Ji conferred gods, it was not because of how powerful he was, but because others gave the ancestors of the Zhou family a priesthood.This kind of conferred god is very different from Xia Shi's conferred god (of course Xia Shi didn't choose this way in reality).The latter is naturally able to have the priesthood that best matches his nature, and become the strongest among the gods.As for the former, the strength is really not strong.Just look at the situation of Houji Temple here in Kunwu City.Hou Ji conferred the gods, but at least he retained a bit of the face of the "son of heaven".

It can be simply understood as a common saying on the earth: if you eat others, your mouth is soft, but if you take others, your hands are short.In this situation, Zhou Shi naturally lacks the confidence to challenge the gods, and it is impossible to sit on an equal footing with the gods like Xia Shi.

"But," Zhang Cheng was still a little bit unwilling. "If the gods deliberately make things difficult for the Zhou family, is there nothing they can do?"

Huang Gong sighed lightly, "The gods are limited after all, and they are separated from the mortal world. If they are really opposed to the Zhou family, it is worthless, and it is even more difficult to move forward, and everything is not coordinated."

"But, what if we have to fight against it?" Zhang Cheng couldn't help asking.

"Master Zhang Cheng, does he know about King Zhao's Nanzheng? That's because of his command." Huang Gong said lightly.

King Zhao's Southern Expedition was a tragic failure in the history of the Western Zhou Dynasty.According to the records of earth history, this was due to an accident. When Zhou Zhaowang’s army returned victorious, the pontoon bridge collapsed because of too much loot (it was said that the plan of the Chu people, sitting on a glued boat, In the middle of crossing the river, the glue dissolved and the ship disintegrated) and fell into the water and died.The Chu people took the opportunity to attack the army that had lost their commander, and the Sixth Division of the Son of Heaven of the Zhou Dynasty was wiped out.This is an unprecedented setback since the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty.

On the earth, this is Zhou Zhaowang who is too proud and self-confident, paralyzed and careless.But in this world of gods and magic, this kind of plot is bound to change.Among other things, even a rudimentary mage here can use the "flying technique" (only needs a mage level 5).Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to drown Zhou Tianzi.

So... In this world, was King Zhao's failure due to the influence of gods?It was Si Ming who acted directly or indirectly to help the Chu people defeat the Zhou army.That is to say, even if this kind of thing like killing the emperor and overthrowing the Sixth Division... the final result is that Si Ming was recognized as an evil god by the Zhou family.Even the identity of this "evil god" is unreasonable and unreasonable, and many places disagree.For example, Dr. Kunwu obviously doesn't care much about this evil god.The people of Chu took the opposite position.

Being recognized as an evil god actually has almost no effect on the god itself—except of course during the battle of the gods.

Zhang Cheng began to understand: To put it bluntly, the gods are superior, and the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty actually had no ability to check and balance the gods.On the contrary, for a strong man like Heng'e, if Zhou Shi is disobedient, he will suffer the second round or even the third round of blows.

The Zhou family was defeated in the Battle of Thousand Mu, so the Zhou family beat Heng'e into an evil god.On the surface, this is a counterattack against Heng'e, but in fact it leads to the beginning of the war of gods. Heng'e will first attack the Zhou room, which will trigger a great war in the world and destroy the Zhou room.

If the Zhou family endured the great loss of the Battle of Thousand Mu, knocking out front teeth and swallowing blood, it is estimated that King Zhou You would not be killed this time.But Zhou Shi refused to bear it.So they have to suffer the second and third rounds of beating until they are subdued!

If everything develops according to the history of the earth, Zhou Shi will undoubtedly be defeated in the end.Had to obey.The two kings are at odds with each other, and their interests are closely related. How could it be possible to continue to identify Heng'e as an evil god.King Ping of Zhou and King Xie of Zhou have a half chance of one admitting Hang'e and the other denying Hang'e, and the other half of the chance is that everyone recognizes Hang'e together.

What, you mean the ancestors of the Zhou family?Since people dare to beat you, of course they are not afraid of Hou Ji.This also shows from the side that Houji's strength is only mediocre, and he can't hold back the situation.

It can be seen from this that if Siming fights Houtu one day in the future, Siming will probably give Zhou Shi a round of heavy blows as soon as possible.Beat Zhou Tianzi in pain, fear, and subdue him.Or simply destroy the Zhou family.

From the transcendent perspective of a traveler, it can only be said that the mortals in this world are still not clear-headed, and they don't understand that the void has been closed, and there are no more opportunities in the world to casually enshrine gods.Therefore, the distance between gods and mortals is getting farther and farther. They need to be beaten again and again by the gods, so that they can understand a little bit about who is strong and who is weak, and understand that the strong are respected in the world.

Let the world spread the praises of God's leisure, and our generation only needs to monopolize the world.

Countless thoughts flashed through Zhang Cheng's mind, but in the end it just turned into a soft sigh.

Now it can be confirmed that the initiator of the war of gods is Heng'e, and Taiyin Xingjun is passively engaged in the battle.From this point of view, Heng'e is obviously more confident, has a greater chance of winning, and has more cards.

"There is another matter," Zhang Cheng asked Huang Gong. "I heard that there is a woman outside Kunwu City who can teach magic."

Of course, this is not what he "heard", but he knew from the game.In the first act of the refugee camp in the game, the main task of the protagonist is to find a job.And if you plan to become a mage, you have three options.The first one is a certain mage who lives in the tavern.This mage has nothing to say, he sees money, and he will teach you magic if he gives you money.Of course, his charges are really expensive, and he likes to charge randomly.When learning new magic filling spell books in the future, this one will sell the most.

In reality, although Zhang Cheng had never met this mage, let alone studied under him, he could still guess the identity of the mage.This one is obviously a traveler.And he is a traveler with financial constraints.

The second is Huang Gong, so I won’t talk about it.In the game, he is a mage living in the castle, and taking office in his hands requires both money and prestige.The fee is much better than the first one.Of course, in reality, Huang Gong not only got the job for free, but also gave Zhang Cheng a magic book filled with various spells.This book does not know how much time and money Zhang Cheng saved.

As for the third place, it was the unknown reclusive witch.In a slightly remote location behind the refugee camp, there is a witch.This witch depends entirely on the reputation of your refugee camp.If you have enough prestige, people can teach you for free, but if you don't have enough prestige, they won't care about you at all.It is quite difficult to become a mage in the hands of a witch through the game process, because it means that the protagonist must complete multiple more dangerous tasks to improve his reputation before he has a combat career.Don't even think about it, you know it's not easy.

Of course, the above is the game setting, and there must be another way in reality.Based on Zhang Cheng's current understanding of this society, he felt that as long as Dr. Kunwu was pulled out, the witch should agree to teach.

In fact, Huang Gong can also teach magic, but in the game, Huang Gong just stays in the castle all day long and does nothing, and acts as a non-walking NPC with peace of mind. Players can come to learn at any time.But in reality, Mr. Huang doesn't have much time to be a teacher!He has a lot going on.After all, during the current war period, Kunwu City is well prepared, and neither the scouts nor the city defense work should be slack in the slightest.

"Teach alchemy?" Huang Gong was stunned at first, then remembered something. "What you said, could it be... Madam?"

"Ma'am?" Zhang Cheng was also taken aback.It is said that because of the garbled characters in the game, he really doesn't know who the witch is.Of course, based on realistic speculation, it can be seen that this witch must be of noble origin.And she is rich, otherwise how could she teach magic for free?In the game, even Huang Gong has to charge money.But he didn't expect to have the title "madame" at all.

If there is anyone in Kunwu City that Huang Gong calls "Madame", it is either Dr. Kunwu's wife or Huang Gong's own wife.

However, according to common sense, it shouldn't.Because neither Dr. Kunwu nor Huang Gong has any reason to send his wife to live alone outside the castle.This era doesn't pay much attention to the breakdown of the relationship, so the husband and wife live apart.

"It should be Madam." Huang Gong smiled. "Being able to teach alchemy as a woman... Well, why haven't I heard of this?"

Of course you haven't heard of it, and you haven't played the game.Zhang Cheng complained in his stomach. "Who is this lady?"

"The doctor's widowed sister." Huang Gong whispered.

It turned out that there was such a character.But in this day and age, people live together in clans (not to mention this day and age, this practice will be very popular for many, many years to come), Dr. Kunwu also has a lot of clan members, and there must be some brothers and sisters.Well, it's hard to say about brothers, because Zhang Cheng has not found out that Dr. Kunwu has brothers (in addition, Dr. Kunwu has no children yet).But there is definitely no shortage of distant cousins ​​and cousins.In fact, a large part of Dr. Kunwu's vassals are his clansmen.

For feudal lords, enfeoffing land to their descendants was the norm.The Zhou family sealed a large number of princes, and most of them were from the same clan.

"That..." Zhang Cheng tried his best to euphemistically talk about the little girl's desire to learn magic.Or it can be said that Zhang Cheng hoped that Huang Gong could introduce him in the middle, so that the other party would agree to teach the little girl magic.

Huang Gong laughed out loud. "Mr. Zhang Cheng really underestimates himself!" He said with a smile. "Nowadays, everyone in Kunwu City doesn't know you, Zhang Cheng. In less than half a year, you have made outstanding achievements repeatedly, and you are valued by Dr. Kunwu. You just go to see your wife. As long as she really intends to teach alchemy, she will definitely not refuse your request. .”

Is it that simple?

The surrounding area of ​​Kunwu City is not very big. After a while, Zhang Cheng brought the little girl to the witch's house.His current entourage has also expanded. In addition to Jia and Huchen, there is one more Xinhua and two other slaves.As a respect, he left the others at a distance and came to see him himself.

In the game, you can go directly to the witch's house.The witch stood in the center of her room, turning a blind eye to the entry and exit of outsiders.But now in reality, you have to dress up and go to the door to ask for an audience.

The door opened quickly, and standing in front of Zhang Cheng was a tall woman—from the perspective of people on earth, she was probably in her early 30s, with simple and clean clothes, but with a lot of jewelry on her body.There are several pieces of jewelry, such as the necklace on the neck and the hairpin on the hair, all of which have obvious halos flashing, and they can be seen as relatively strong magic equipment at a glance.This widow is indeed rich!Even Dr. Kunwu doesn't have such luxurious equipment.No wonder she teaches for free.

In fact, her appearance does not conform to the aesthetics of this era, on the contrary, it conforms to the taste of the time traveler: melon seed face, high nose bridge, long eyebrows into the temples, and spirited eyes.She has the demeanor of a mixture of mature women and aristocratic status, and she is a proper queen.

"So it's Mr. Zhang Cheng!" The witch looked Zhang Cheng up and down, and said. "I heard," she said without giving Zhang Cheng a chance to speak. "Your fiancée wants to learn alchemy from me?" When she said this, her voice was obviously contemptuous.

This woman is really powerful, she is indeed the sister of Dr. Kunwu.Zhang Cheng said goodbye to Mr. Huang and came over immediately. There was not a long delay in the middle, but she already knew about it.Although Kunwu City is not a big place, she is too well informed.

"Exactly." Zhang Cheng could only answer in this way.

Zhang Cheng was born as a tourist, and he became a vassal of Dr. Kunwu for less than a year.It can be seen that his fiancée must have no identity at all.Either a tourist or a commoner.It is easy to understand Zhang Cheng's hope that his fiancée from a humble background can improve his status by learning alchemy, but it is hard to imagine that the inferior common people are capable of learning the mysteries of alchemy.

The witch showed a mocking smile again, "My lord is also an alchemist, why don't you teach me?"

"This..." Zhang Cheng couldn't answer for a moment.

The fiancée's ability is low, and she can't teach at all, so she hopes to find a better teacher-this kind of thinking is self-evident and self-evident.The witch was thinking, she wanted to solve this problem with a simple method.

"Forget it, I'll give her a try." She gestured for the little girl in the distance to come over.When the little girl came close, she could tell at a glance that the little girl had no tutor and no manners.Of course, at this age, there is still room for redemption—but it also proves from the side that she has no talent at all.

She raised her hand, and a roll of bamboo slips unfolded from her hand. "See?" she asked.

Zhang Cheng looked from the side, but saw that there were no poems and documents inside, but... numbers!
"I'll test your memory," said the witch.Memory is the most important talent of an alchemist. All alchemy rituals, steps, details, spells, etc. must be memorized completely without any mistakes.People with poor memory are not qualified to learn spells at all.

Yes, there are very simple numbers in the bamboo slips.Because if it is a text such as poetry literature, then it is likely that the other party has read it and memorized it.After all, Youshi's Family also has family traditions, so it's really hard to say what they have learned.But it is impossible to be opportunistic when it comes to numbers.Seeing the surprised expression on the little girl's face, the witch smiled.

"3.1415926..." What is this?I don't know anything else, but the first three numbers are very familiar. This is... pi?

Zhang Cheng looked at the little girl.
