Chapter 611: Lao Deng, come to cheat, come to steal!
Although the rewards from the outside world are the focus, they are only a small part of the huge rewards. In addition, nearly half of the treasures in the Heavenly Court and the rubbings of various spells and magical powers in the Heavenly Court's collection are not inferior to the former in weight.
Apart from this, nearly ten thousand positions of celestial officials and hundreds of thousands of gods and deities were all handed over to Zhang Ke, allowing him to recruit and select them as he pleased. All he had to do was to have complete merits and no other examinations were required.
The original authority to establish governments and cities was also expanded again.
In name, Zhang Ke lost status and was ranked several places lower among the emperors in heaven, but in reality, he was almost given a gift package of independence.
Even with this reward alone, Zhang Ke can completely build another small heaven in the Shang and Zhou world. Combined with the underworld kit that was opened long ago and left for later generations, it is not an exaggeration to call it a small Kyushu.
"Thank God for the reward!"
After hearing the reward, Zhang Ke bowed politely and returned to his seat with an expressionless face.
And for the emperors who were used to Zhang Ke always playing tricks and making trouble, this scene in front of them was so strange and difficult to accept. Almost at the moment when Zhang Ke thanked him and stepped back, a series of cold dead fish eyes looked at the uneasy Lord Haotian.
Look, look.
How has this good child become because of you, a bad parent?
Who wouldn’t feel sorry for this timid and serious look?
Old man Haotian, you have no heart!!!
The doubt and disdain in his eyes were almost revealed in a tangible way, which made Lord Haotian, who already felt that something was missing, feel even more helpless.
He didn't expect things to turn out like this.
To be honest, He only gave a small beating, and even limited it to words, which was much milder than the group of troublemakers below who gathered in a circle and kicked him.
Zhang Ke, who had not changed his "bad habits" even after being surrounded and beaten up by forty or fifty emperors, became a good boy after hearing these few words from Him.
This is quite difficult to evaluate.
Especially when he felt the emperors who were suppressing their dissatisfaction and anger and seemed to be a little alienated in heart, the numbness on Haotian's face became even more intense. He now understood the personal feelings of those wild ancient gods and the barbarians in the void.
If you hit one, you offend the whole family.
Wait, am I a barbarian?
With his back to the immortals and his head down in deep thought, Zhang Ke did not notice the stagnant and frightening atmosphere in the Lingxiao Palace.
Having received the imperial decree, he was now counting the whereabouts of these rewards.
Landscape, magic, godhood, qualifications.
The reward was very generous. Although it was not particularly suitable for him, it was the highest-level reward that the Heavenly Court could offer. And with the existence of the elixir of immortality, Zhang Ke could wait until the day when the mountains and rivers in the outside world turned into reality, and it would not hinder his growth.
It was just that something like that had just happened. Even if the emperors explained and comforted him, he would not be as indulgent as before.
Haotian was right. He could not rely on the indulgence of the emperors to disrespect his elders and act recklessly, whether in daily life or outside. Even if he could not live up to Jiuzhou's broad definition of a humble gentleman or an immortal, he should try not to be unconventional.
People can only grow after they have put something into practice.
Of course, Manhuang is not among them. In front of a group of elders who are used to speaking with their fists, a good child is not very popular. What's more, after he has seen the glory of some elders when they were young, and after seeing Suiren and Nuwa counting the dark histories of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors from time to time, it is difficult for him to look those people in the eye.
It is worth mentioning that even though they are no longer young and have become kings, some people still have minor ailments.
Fuxi's conspiracy, Yandi's arson, Xuanyuan's preference for women, and Dayu's bullying of the gods
Well, feeling a resentful gaze coming from several seats away, Zhang Ke couldn't help but shudder and quickly restrained his indulgent mind.
At the same time, the rewards in the Lingxiao Palace continued.
From the emperors to the immortal officials in heaven, and even the earth gods who failed to follow the army to the void, there will be rewards from the Yin gods. No matter how much, the main goal is to treat everyone equally and fairly.
Such huge expenses were naturally only possible with the support of the foreign barbarians.
It's just that there are too many people involved, and their ranks are not suitable for Haotian God, the lord of the Nine Provinces, to list them one by one. Therefore, except for the heavenly officials and earthly gods above the third rank, the rewards for the rest of the immortals and gods were mostly given to the emperors of their respective domains. After the court session, the emperors will distribute the rewards in different levels in their own government offices and palaces.
Those with less merit or less amount will be instructed by their direct superior god.
Thanks to the strict laws of heaven in Jiuzhou and the constant inspections of the three realms by the emperors, fairness can be maintained in most cases.
Everyone was happy, but the Gods of Wealth in the Ministry of Finance had to work overtime to count the inventory, and then distribute the rewards according to the edicts.
But that’s all for later.
The rewards given by the immortals and gods above the third rank alone took a full day and night, and as for the mortal world, more than a year had passed in various heavens and earth.
The threat of a powder keg that was about to explode gradually faded away, and the guarantee of God's presence was restored. The dynasty order in the various worlds of Kyushu gradually returned to peace. The barbarians, who had briefly stood up, returned to the painful cycle of being beaten for no reason.
At the same time, in Shang Zhou Tiandi, the celebration that lasted for nearly three months was gradually coming to an end.
The coalition forces of princes and the gods and ghosts from all directions who came to join in the fun and show their face also found excuses to retreat one after another, returning to the places where they were supposed to be, quietly waiting for the glorious moment of being incorporated into the organization after the heavenly changes!
When the prosperity gradually came to an end.
Beside the palace, Wu You - Meng Zhou, who had bid farewell to his grandmother and returned to the ancestral temple, had no time to breathe a sigh of relief before he saw his disciple, the former chief of the Guanggu tribe, now the general of the Shaoyou tribe who was in charge of all wars, walking hurriedly into the ancestral temple.
He kowtowed to the ancestral statues above him out of habit, and then he stood up and complained to Meng Zhou bluntly, "You are a bunch of troublemakers. I can't help you. Whoever wants to go can go!"
"After two battles, I didn't kill many barbarians, but I became mentally unbalanced and had nightmares one after another. Even the doctors were helpless."
"No, Wu, are you sure that these distant relatives were born in the same place as our ancestors? Then how..."
"I think you are really so angry that you dare to slander our ancestors? Go down and get a hundred sticks first, and then come back and talk to me!"
Meng Zhou waved his hand to interrupt Guanggu's complaints, and directly gave him a beating with a stick to clear his mind.
After Guanggu, who was speechless but slapped himself twice in anger, left the ancestral temple to be punished, Youwu, who was in the shadow of the statue, also sighed helplessly.
It is not easy to blend the two worlds.
It is even more difficult for the Shaoyou tribe.
His own world had not yet been cleared up, and the princes came one after another for profit, clamoring to join the Shaoyou tribe and obey the orders of the Human King. The situation he faced was already very troublesome, but he had to obey the orders of his ancestors.
Although, the division of the world between Shang and Zhou was also dominated by the will of their ancestors.
Even though the Shang and Zhou dynasties had long been plucked out of the timeline of Jiuzhou by the Heavenly Court and made into a branch axis independent of the orthodox timeline, it was not known whether out of stubbornness or other reasons that the ancestors were unwilling to take back the last missing authority of the throne of the King of Man from the Zhou royal family.
The world is divided into two parts, seven in the west and three in the east. Although the share of the former continues to expand due to the trend of people's hearts, as long as the Zhou royal family survives, heaven, earth and human beings will have to be separated, unless China is lost and the mandate of heaven is lost.
But the question arises again, with Emperor You still alive, who would dare to risk the extinction of his clan to stir up trouble in the mountains and rivers of Kyushu?
You have to know that Emperor You is not a person of high moral character and prestige like the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, nor does he have any dignity like the emperors of previous dynasties. His attitude towards foreigners can only be described in one sentence.
Anyone taller than the wheel will be killed!
Good news, at least it’s still above the passing line.
The bad news is that the wheels are laid down and a hole has to be dug in the place beforehand.
In this way, the ancestors were unwilling, and no foreign barbarians dared to be the first to try it, which led to the Shaoyou tribe constantly sucking fresh blood from the Western Zhou Dynasty. The Western Zhou Dynasty was in its early years, with a strong emperor and no princes to share the burden. Even with a shortage of talent, the number of newborns increased dramatically year by year.
It has formed a production line!
There are so many troubles in the local area, and we have to accept this distant relative from the future. I thought that with the mentality and concepts of the people in the future who have experienced a lot, plus the arrival of the era of spiritual energy revival, the situation will at least be better than that in the local area, right?
But after trying it, Meng Zhou had to admit that his initial idea was indeed a bit simple. Seeing the rampant nymphomaniacs on the Internet, the promiscuous sex in reality, and even the young people of later generations who were unwilling to be lonely and stared at female demons, even Meng Zhou, who was used to seeing his ancestors doing whatever they wanted, felt a little bit of cardiac arrest.
However, the image of later generations is far more than that. The marks left by foreigners in later generations still continue to cause trouble after decades of changes, and the gentle marks left by Confucius and sages of all ages are engraved deep in people's blood.
Does excessive killing harm the harmony of nature?
You are afraid of hurting the barbarians, but aren't you afraid that the barbarians will hurt you one day?
Those who do not deny abstraction are a minority after all, and the young people who have inherited the bravery and fighting spirit of Kyushu are still great.
But they had enjoyed peace for so long that they had long forgotten what fighting looked like. Plus, they had a little kindness in their hearts, which turned into a fatal force when they arrived at the foreign battlefield.
It was because of the constant help from Shao You's personal guards that the army was able to return home safely. Otherwise, with so few people, it would be considered a foreign land with a higher moral bottom line if only half of them could return.
The war was not going well, and there were a lot of miscellaneous problems inside. Add to that the mixed bloodline that anyone would find disgusting, and Meng Zhou really felt like he was panning for gold in the toilet.
Even if they worked day and night to attack dozens of foreign lands in succession, or even fought directly with the foreign gods, it would be easier than the current task.
It’s no wonder that Guanggu was so upset and spoke nonsense. Meng Zhou felt dizzy just thinking about it.
"Ancestor, you have given me a big problem!"
With emotion, Meng Zhou, who was kneeling in front of the table, reached out to touch the cups and divination blocks on the table.
But I never thought that the cup divination blocks made of bamboo and wood seemed to contain a mountain and were unshakable.
After trying it, Meng Zhou, who was in disbelief, quickly stood up and raised the cup with both hands, but as expected, the two cup blocks seemed to be welded to the table. No matter how hard he tried with his skinny arms, even Fa Tian Xiang Di couldn't help but use his power to transform into a giant of a hundred feet, but his palm that seemed as big as a mountain was still unable to shake the two small bamboo cup blocks.
Seeing this, Meng Zhou's mouth twitched slightly.
Although the members of the Shaoyou tribe had a vague feeling in their hearts after the big show of inviting ancestors with divination blocks before the New Year, that this method of throwing divination blocks would not be passed down to later generations, he did not expect that all this would happen so quickly!
After all, compared to the gods in heaven who accept everyone and respond based on the circumstances, the advantage of our ancestors is that they will respond to every request, but the problem is, how to get it is the key.
Whenever there is a war, there is no need to pray, the ancestors will appear.
But once it comes to clerical work and internal affairs, they become deaf and blind and simply pretend not to hear anything.
The same is true today.
Looking at the unmoving cups and divination blocks on the table, Meng Zhou realized that his ancestor had completely handed over the future affairs to the two of them to deal with. He sighed, looked at Guanggu who had just walked in with a grin, and said calmly:
"When you were punished just now, I consulted the ancestor with the divination sticks, and he said that you have full authority over this matter!"
"But be careful not to force them, use violence, or fight and kill them at will. After all, they are distant relatives from the place where our ancestors were born. The most that can happen is that the relationship between us can be divided into three parts, just like the Western Zhou Dynasty."
"However, although the ancestors have drawn a bottom line for you, I think Guanggu will definitely not want to disappoint the ancestors."
Holding his old waist, Guanggu's expression changed several times with a look of pain on his face. Then he responded and left.
As an old man who followed Zhang Ke out of the Ten Thousand Mountains, he had witnessed many of Zhang Ke's campaigns along the way, and even the rewards from heaven and earth, the surrender of the barbarians, and the title of Emperor Youzun, and other glorious scenes in Zhang Ke's history.
Guanggu, like the former members of the Jiuli tribe, has an absolute blind trust in Zhang Ke. Not to mention that he can attack wherever he is told, even if he is asked to commit suicide, they would still be willing to sacrifice themselves for the glory of the human race.
And with the support of the wise old man You Wu - Meng Zhou and the princess, the Shao You tribe has not made a wrong decision to this day.
Of course, even if there was a mistake, it was You Wu's fault, and had nothing to do with the ancestors or the princess.
In this case, with Meng Zhou, the person in charge, taking his side, although Guanggu felt in his heart that he was not suitable for this job, in order not to disappoint his ancestors, he still gritted his teeth and took on this big project.
On the other hand, although Guanggu is young and does not have the cunningness of Meng Zhou or the knowledge of Yao Ji, as the second most powerful person in the Shaoyou tribe after the top three, his powerful but not necessarily used force is enough to suppress all external voices.
As he was trained as the Jiuli witch and clan leader, he also has the ability to mediate various conflicts, so it is indeed most appropriate for him to handle this matter.
Zhang Ke, who was holding down the cup divination block to prevent the annoying thing from moving, breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not that he is trying to make things difficult for his younger generation, it's just that this thing is too far away from his area of expertise.
Not everyone can do such a thing as bringing prosperity to everyone.
As early as when he was first favored by the game and embarked on the path of cultivation, Zhang Ke did have similar thoughts in his mind: if one person can ascend to heaven, everyone around him will benefit.
But with the various situations that happened later and the various realities encountered in his own growth process, his will had to be influenced by the external situation, from gradually becoming a family with the same wealth; to giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching him how to fish.
When I become rich, I will help you and open up a new track for you, but whether you can take it and successfully achieve success is your business.
He couldn't have the final say like he did with the Shaoyou tribe. It was unrealistic.
The experience and consciousness between the two forced Zhang Ke to make a choice.
Compared to all the retro things, the Shaoyou tribe, who are accustomed to gathering under the command of the human king and ancestors to receive guidance and grow like the barbaric human race, the later human race has too many and too complicated ideas. The rapid development of science and technology has made everyone's ideas and wills materialized.
Their self-awareness hates being controlled by their parents.
The revival of spiritual energy is not all peaceful!
Just like the immortals and gods who have been transferred to the future, their existence does reduce the growth of darkness in the sun, but for some people, this excessive control makes them feel suffocated.
The existence of gods and immortals made it impossible for them to secretly engage in sexual activities without telling their husbands and wives as they had done in the past, to cheat on their husbands and wives with a clear conscience, to ignore the facts, and to treat people as if they were not human beings.
Everything that is different from the warm tones, violates the laws of the underworld, and the dogmas of the gods will eventually be punished.
Moreover, things that can be covered up with a sewing machine in the human world often only need three to five years, but in the netherworld, there is no way to end them without being fryed in oil for a hundred years or being tied up and burned with fire thousands of times. Even reincarnation is not the end of it, and you will have to pay for those unfinished business in your next life and the next life after that.
Everyone yearns for a utopia, but is unwilling to achieve it at the cost of sacrificing themselves.
And this is just the most common contradiction within the scope of the power of immortals and gods, and there are countless other kinds in other aspects.
The revival of spiritual energy alone has brought about all kinds of troubles, and the fusion of the two worlds is likely to be even more troublesome, but there is no way, he can't just ignore it.
With the establishment of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the wilderness and the Nine Provinces became involved in Zhang Ke's life. His future was bound to return to the latter, and he might not be able to visit there for hundreds of years.
The revival of spiritual energy not only brings about the contradictions in daily life and everyone's practice of being like a dragon, but also the upgrading of the world will make the eyes of Jiuzhou and even the outside world turn to this new world.
If Zhang Ke didn't lend a helping hand, those foreigners and immortals with old-fashioned ideas would turn the future into another battlefield.
The ending may change, but it will never be better than integrating into the world of Shang Zhou.
