Chapter 273 [272] Seeking longevity?

Zhou Li'an was not angry.

Tezuzomoko is like a cat, trying to show its little meaty claws in front of the Lion King will only make people feel ridiculous.

And when the countenance of our Lord God is as frost;
The three of his believers felt a chill sweeping through their bodies in this scorching heat in the old land of Africa.

Even Xuenv seldom sees such an expression from her master, and whenever a true god is angry, there will be a real divine punishment——

The Tushi tribe plundered the small tribe at the beginning, killed the witch and the patriarch Missing Tooth, and Thunder's divine punishment baptized the Tushi Valley.

For example, the Modoc people rebelled against the will of the balance and almost encountered the abandonment of our Lord.

If the Aztecs sacrificed to false gods, there would be a divine flame that would burn the king.

No matter what happens now.

Xuenv knew that the person who offended the true god would face a price he couldn't bear.

Adina was a little frightened, her frail little body trembling.

Zhou Ruonan put his arms around her shoulders and said, "Don't be afraid, my lord is descending somewhere in the world...not to be angry with us."

Also at this time.

Zhou Li'an opened his eyes and calmed down.

Seeing the timid Adina, she smiled again, reached out and rubbed her head: "Are you afraid of me?"

Adina didn't know how to answer, but her subconscious reaction made her chin twitch slightly.

Seeing this scene, Xue Nu and Zhou Ruonan were startled.

But wait for them to speak.

Zhou Li'an said: "Then what did you do wrong?"

Adina shook her head.

"Yes, since you have done nothing wrong, why are you afraid of me?"

Zhou Li'an pinched her face, and told her in Swahili language——

"Adina, you must remember;"

"As long as you firmly believe in me, you don't have to be afraid of me!"

"For my majestic authority is your refuge;"

"My monstrous rage is the torture of your enemies;"

"If one day I see that you are angry, I will be angry because of the reason for your anger. Because you are my people, I will punish that person with divine punishment;"

Xue Nu and Zhou Ruonan couldn't understand the native's words, they only looked at Adina nervously, worried that she would slip up when she was young.

But soon, their worries were put down.

I saw Adina's expression stretched, a little stunned, a little ignorant: "My lord, is it because your people have suffered that you are angry?"

Instead, Zhou Li'an froze for a moment, and then said, "Yes."

"Then Adina will be angry with you too!" She puffed up her face, pretending to be angry, "Those who make my Lord angry are all bad people!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

Zhou Li'an laughed loudly, and rubbed the little girl's head several times.

Such a scene also completely relaxed Xue Nu and Zhou Ruonan.

Xue Nu complained: "Master, you messed up the braid we just made for Adina!"

"Hee hee hee..." Adina just smiled foolishly.

After a while, several people sat around the table and had breakfast.

As for the matter of my lord's anger just now, Xue Nu and Zhou Ruonan didn't mention it again.

If there is something they should know, our Lord will naturally teach them; otherwise, there is no need to search for it.

The fire spreader is Mixin.

Snow Maiden doesn't know.

The world knows only a few people whose will was handed down by Queztico.

The same goes for cow shit and Zhou Weiguo.

Although they let the eldest prince Loboda go to the city of Aztec Lake to redeem the people, but Queztitco gave him the name of "Fire Passer", but it was done behind the scenes.

After all, even Queztitko was a sinner.

And when Zhou Li'an bestowed the god's decree, he had already told him——

I will guard your sins.

Because of this will, the group of people like Queztitko, Tsipochet, and Loboda belong to the special existence in the equilibrium system.

If you tell them about the changes in Lake City now, you need to involve the fire spreader.

Zhou Li'an wants to hold this hidden card...

Whether it is missionary work in the future, or as a secret "internal monitoring and judging agency", it has unexpected effects.

The current balance is of one mind, but when people from all over the world are included, it is hard to say whether it can still remain pure.

Americans and Africans are relatively simple.

Europe and Asia have experienced thousands of years of power games, and people's hearts are unpredictable;

Of course Zhou Li'an had to plan ahead.

As for how to solve the predicament of the city in the lake?
—Arrival! !

The city in the lake was blocked, and climbers and others in Kema City didn't know the news, so they couldn't rush to the rescue.

Even if a month or two later, they realized that it was too long and went south to the valley, the Aztecs would be dead by then.

Therefore, only "coming" is the easiest and quickest way.

However, not now!
The matter has come to this point, since the plot has advanced to this juncture, it is better to continue to postpone it.

Survival from a desperate situation is a masterpiece that is enough to be recorded in the annals of history and passed down through the ages.

As Moses opened the sea...

Of course Zhou Li'an can't sail the sea, but there are no big scenes, and the emotions and tension are in place, and the effect presented will not be bad.

So until the last moment, equilibrium will not come.

……

A group of four took a day off in Mauritania.

Xue Nu and Zhou Ruonan taught Adina to learn the rules of Chinese, and popularized some common sense principles for her.

They also saw our lord beside him, making creations from time to time, and then making the creations disappear out of thin air, repeating dozens of times a day, but they didn't understand the meaning.

The next day, July 7rd.

Piper M600 set sail again.

Fly over Mali, Guinea, and finally arrive at the current "Ghana" region.

The territory of the original "Kingdom of Ghana" is in the area of ​​the current Mali Empire, which was the predecessor of Mali's destruction. At its peak, Ghana's territory radiated the entire West African region.

Today, there are only scattered tribal clans on the coast of Ghana, who mine gold locally and sell it to the Mali Empire and other places in exchange for needed supplies.

In later generations, Ghana was the landing point for Portugal, plundered gold, traded slaves, and named this place the Gold Coast.

three days later.

Down south to the Gabon region.

This place is already on a parallel line with Malindi in East Africa, with a horizontal distance of 3400 kilometers.

Even if you continue to South Africa, you are guaranteed to arrive in Malindi within 10 hours.

As for the Aztec movement.

Zhou Li'an is also paying attention all the time.

Returning from Africa to China and the United States, the whole journey is 11000 kilometers. If you fly continuously, Piper M600 and Dash8 can be rotated, which can shorten the time to 24 hours.

Therefore, he set the advent threshold at 2 days.

Once it is found that the situation is not good, it will set off 2 days in advance to ensure the survival of the Aztecs as much as possible.

Besides.

Zhou Li'an also returned to the present world before taking a rest one night.

Call Barbara.

Barbara answered almost immediately, but first listened to the noisy environment around her, and said to her relatives and friends: "Oh, it's my boss... I'll go out for a while..."

"Long vacation?"

"Please, my annual salary has just doubled, and I have promised my boss that I will be here on call."

Zhou Li'an waited with a smile.

The vacation was granted to her last time, because the trip to Africa will stay in the equilibrium time and space for a long time.

Such a good tool person, of course, must combine work and rest, and let her work for as many years as possible.

After the ambient sound faded away, Zhou Li'an said, "Where are you?"

"Hawaii... originally wanted to go to Europe, but I was afraid that it was too far away and I couldn't make it back!"

"Boss, you know my son is studying art in Europe, and we haven't seen each other for a while."

Zhou Li'an said: "Go, after playing in Hawaii, you can fly to Europe, and I will reimburse the travel expenses!"

"you sure?"

"Definitely, go to Europe and help me find some experts who are proficient in ancient Spanish and ancient English. After you find them, let them report directly to Patricia. Patricia will understand what I mean."

Patricia has mastered Spanish and English is her mother tongue.

But in the 15th century, English was not yet popular, and today it is still in the category of Old English, and the two are very different by comparison.

The difference between ancient Spanish and modern Spanish is not so great, only in the sentence structure, and there are only subtle differences in pronunciation, just like two dialects, you can communicate after a period of time.

After listening to the instructions, Barbara was very pleasantly surprised.

Just looking for someone, and travel reimbursed at public expense, this kind of good thing is too little but not too much.

"That's all, any more?"

Zhou Li'an said: "The last thing can be done without you coming back..."

"Bombardier and de Havilland cheated us last time. Now I need to rent an additional Dash8. You let them complete the formalities and send it to Cayero Peninsula within 3 days!"

"Within 3 days is the maximum time limit, all in all, the sooner the better!"

With one more aircraft, the cruising range will increase, and there is no need to replenish fuel after landing, and it can be replaced directly.

That was the point of contacting Barbara, and hiring a language expert was just a matter of course.

"3 days... let me try."

"It's not a test, it must be in place no matter what!"

"okay, I get it!"

And only on the second night.

Zhou Li'an saw more than a dozen missed calls on his mobile phone, and after calling back, he learned that the plane had already arrived.

He called for the speedboat to pick him up.

Unexpectedly, Juan, who hadn't seen him for a long time, landed on the island in person. The two chatted on the boat for a while and then came to the airport.

A brand new Dash8 is parked in the hangar.

"The person who delivered the plane was very polite, saying that this is a new plane that rolled off the production line this year, and he has the intention of showing his good wishes to you."

"After the plane arrived, we filled up the fuel for you in advance."

"But if you ask me, propeller planes are too slow, why doesn't Mr. Zhou consider Gulfstream and Bombardier's jet planes?"

"It depends on my personal interest." Zhou Li'an said, "Oh, by the way, how many drinks will I have with Cayero later?"

Juan was ecstatic: "That's great, I will notify the manor now and let them prepare the banquet..."

Juan turned to make the phone.

Zhou Li'an restrained his expression, and with a wave of his hand...

The huge plane disappeared out of thin air, and the system's fee deduction prompt sounded in my ears.

He walked out of the hangar, and Juan was about to come back, but Zhou Li'an hugged him: "Let's go, drink."

"So soon? Stop looking at that plane?"

"Hehe, haven't you already seen it?"

Juan was baffled.

Just wait for the hilltop manor and have a few drinks, and the joyful atmosphere occupies the high ground.

late at night.

Juan sent Zhou Li'an to the pier to board the boat. He didn't turn around to leave until the lights on the speedboat were blurred in the night.

But it is necessary to board the sightseeing car and return.

Another car came at a high speed, and after the driver stopped, he seemed to be frightened by something, staggered towards him, panting heavily——

"Mr. Juan, Mr. Juan..."

"What's the hurry, speak slowly!"

The man trembled and said, "I read the weather forecast, and there will be heavy rain soon, so I want to close the hangar door..."

"But who knows, when I just arrived at the gate of the hangar, I found that...the propeller plane that was just delivered was gone!"

"God, I'm so damned!"

"Then, I turned on the surveillance video and saw... saw..."

"See what?" Juan grabbed his collar.

The man tremblingly said: "It's Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou raised his hand, and the plane disappeared out of thin air!"

puff.

As soon as Juan let go, the man fell to the ground.

"Hiss." Juan himself gasped, "El Salvador!"

He called his nephew who was sitting in the driver's seat.

Salvador also heard these words, and his face became embarrassed.

"Come on, let's light each other a cigarette."

El Salvador complied.

The person who fell on the ground was also sucking on the cigarette, as if this was the only way to curb the fear in his heart.

Until a cigarette burns out.

Juan said: "Can you promise me? Don't tell anyone about this!"

The man nodded fiercely: "Mr. Juan, I will definitely not tell anyone!"

"It's very kind of you to promise me."

The moment the words fell.

Salvatore took out a pistol from the back of his waist and pointed it at the man.

"what--"

"Mr. Juan, Hu..."

boom! ! !
The gunshot rang out, and the man fell to the ground dully.

The shock and extreme perplexity in those eyes were extinguished little by little like sparks from cigarette butts on the ground.

Juan got into the car and said calmly: "Go to the airport monitoring room! Destroy all the monitoring records!"

"Okay, uncle."

……

Equilibrium 14 years, June 7.

It has been more than [-] days since the true god came.

Malindi, originally the last of the three cities on the coast of East Africa, has gradually shown unprecedented prosperity.

In the early morning, there was an assembly in the palace.

Everyone looked at the magnificent scene below the city, and they were all deeply delighted.

"Business travelers from the cities of Kilwa and Mogadishu all heard the news and wanted to worship the true God..."

"With this glory alone, Malindi can gradually become the real master of the coast!"

Another person said: "What's more, we still have the promise of our Lord, the true God... will be bestowed by grace!"

Having said that, everyone became excited.

They have agreed to argue for many days without a result.

Some people want gold, because gold can strengthen soldiers and horses and enhance their strength!

Some people say that the cost of raising war horses is too high. If there is a plague, all of them will be destroyed. Countless weapons and armor should be needed.

They have heard the envoys say that the prestige of the army of judgment that balances the kingdom of God.

After comparison, the gods' envoys found that their armor and weapons were far inferior to those bestowed by our lord.

The dagger that Qiao Lan got is the best proof.

That dagger cuts iron like mud, but it is the most basic standard equipment of the Kingdom of God.

There was another uproar on the spot.

The old Lubaen suddenly said: "Everyone... my ancestors founded the Malindi Kingdom, and who is the person who made the Kingdom truly prosperous?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and someone said: "It's you, my master, Lu Baen!"

The rest of the people also nodded in agreement, this achievement is obvious to all.

And when the answer was settled, Lu Baen's expression suddenly became frantic: "Then if I can live a long life, Malindi will also be immortal!"

"You say, right?"

"!!!"

In an instant.

There was silence in the hall.

Some people also look fanatical, while others show fear.

Indistinctly, the crowd in the hall is divided into two factions;
One faction supports the lord Lubahn.

The other faction is the followers of Prince Qiaolan.

The ruler of the country is old, and the matter of inheritance has already been decided, so that they stood up early and placed a heavy bet on the prince's side.

But now, Lu Baen asked for longevity, their expectations were shattered, and the old lord's subjects, their power and status will also overwhelm them.

More importantly...

How could Prince Qiaolan bear it?

Fighting for royal power, father and son turning against each other is the norm in the world;
Not to mention...

This is the grace of the gods, the road to eternal life! !
Why can't it be given to the prince if it is given to the king?

Qiao Lan's face flushed red, seeming angry or frightened.

But he heard Lu Baen say: "My son, are you willing? Would you like my old father to accompany you for a while longer?"

Qiao Lan gritted his teeth...

Then when I am old and old, I should happily say: Thank you father for sending me to the end?Help me take care of my wife and children again?
The atmosphere in the hall was on the verge of collapse.

But at this moment, a different voice sounded——

"The master of the mighty Malindi Kingdom..."

"May you listen to my advice—"

"You should ask your own spirit: Can what you dedicate to our Lord really be able to exchange for the grace of 'long life'?"

"But if not, how will the True God react to your delusion and greed?"

These words can be described as heart-wrenching, straight to the essence.

Let everyone see the sun in front of the clouds.

Qiao Lan gasped, and immediately reacted——

"God's wrath!!"

"If you offend God's wrath! Don't talk about grace, my Malindi kingdom will be ruined!"

"Father!! I can't watch you do such evil things!"

A group of supporters also shouted——

"My lord, don't do it! Don't cause the kingdom to be destroyed because of your greed and delusion!!"
