My clone is on the other side of the starry sky

Chapter 355 The totem test was successful

Ming Dynasty, Tiandu, Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty, this is the leader of our clan." Two clam spirits came to Lu Xuan with a graceful and beautiful woman and introduced him.

"See you, your majesty, for the pearl." The beautiful woman bowed to Lu Xuanying.

"The patriarch doesn't need to be polite." Lu Xuan stretched out his hand to help, looked at the beautiful woman named Mingzhu and smiled: "I invite the patriarch to come today for two things. One is to thank the patriarch for his help to our Minghai people in the past few years. , the Bengjing clan has rescued many people of the Ming Dynasty, and is very popular among the people along the coast. I heard that the people have also built many temples, right?"

When Mrs. Mingzhu heard this, Li Ang hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, it is clear that what happened to the temple was not instigated by Mingzhu! Mingzhu will immediately ask the people to demolish the temple after she returns."

In the Ming Dynasty, various water and land gods were canonized by the Ming court. Although there were no clear legal provisions, the related gods would be unhappy even if the court did not pursue the matter of privately collecting incense.

"Clan Chief, don't panic. I invited the Clan Chief here today to thank you, not to ask for guilt." Lu Xuan waved his hand to indicate that Mingzhu should not panic: "I have checked with people and found that the Beng Clan helped the fishing boat in distress out of kindness and not for any purpose. It was just As time went by, people built temples to worship in gratitude for their kindness, which is a good thing."

After hearing this, Mrs. Mingzhu breathed a sigh of relief and bowed: "Your Majesty clearly knows that although we, the Beng clan, are not a wealthy clan, we are naturally kind-hearted and the rescue work is all done voluntarily and not deliberately."

Lu Xuan nodded and said: "So today we invite the clan leader to come to Tiandu in person. The second thing is also related to this matter."

Madam Mingzhu looked at Lu Xuan with her beautiful eyes, waiting for the next words.

His eyes swept over Mrs. Mingzhu beside Lu Xuan, and he was a little unsure about the relationship between this ridiculously beautiful woman and His Majesty.

The totems of Badong in southern Xinjiang were signed many years ago. Even to this day, even Badong himself does not know how to sign the totems. Therefore, even if these totems are decided, no one knows how to sign the totems. They can only start from Badong. Explore the methods through the ancient rituals passed down from the cave.

"The imperial court intends to select one hundred and eight races to be drawn into totems. Of course, this totem is somewhat special. Once signed, the Beng tribe can enjoy part of the luck of the Ming Dynasty, and the beneficiaries can also share the talents of the Beng tribe." Lu Xuan said with a smile: " I wonder if the clan leader is willing?"

The Beng tribe is gentle in nature and has a good reputation among the people on the seaside. Lu Xuan is going to use the Beng tribe to test whether the method that the court has explored over the years is correct.

Lu Xuan led Li Xingzhi, Lu Chao, Zhang Yuanrou, Yan Danfeng and other officials to stand by the seaside with solemn expressions. The prefect of Donghai accompanied him carefully. He never dreamed that one day so many important people would come to this remote and remote place, even His Majesty. All moved.

Lu Xuan nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, head of the Pearl Clan, go and prepare. We will start in three days!"

"Yes!"

Three days later, Donghai County.

As for the national animal, there are many alternatives, and it’s hard to say which one will be used in the end.

The purpose of finding Mingzhu this time is for this matter. It is naturally impossible to choose the clam spirit as the national animal of the Ming Dynasty, but it can be established with several cities on the seaside that mainly worship the clam spirit. The Ming Dynasty developed a system of clan flags. Different environments and different beliefs can have their own totems, just like Badong.

After years of repeated research, Lu Xuan also found some things that related totems and ethnic groups.

For Mrs. Mingzhu, this was naturally a good thing, and she immediately thanked her and said, "Thank you for your favor, Mingzhu is willing."

"There is a Beng clan with a kind heart. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, we have rescued countless sea people and won the support of countless sea people. Today, I am grateful for the contribution of the Beng clan and specially bestow the Beng clan with auspicious bodies. From today on, the Beng clan For the auspiciousness of Donghai County, Donghai County can use the Beng tribe as its totem, and the Ming Dynasty is willing to be friends with the Beng tribe forever, and heaven and earth can learn from it!"

The totem matter has been in preparation many years ago, including which race will be used as the totem, and how will the two parties establish a contract after the totem is determined?

Various sacrificial tributes prepared in advance were placed neatly. Lu Xuan stretched out his hand to summon the phantoms of the Gods List and Mountain and River Seals, stood in front of the tribute platform, and said loudly:

As Lu Xuan finished speaking, Madam Mingzhu squeezed out a drop of blood and dropped it on the prepared county flag, and said loudly: "Thank you for your blessing, Your Majesty Ming Dynasty. From today on, we, the Beng clan, are willing to be loyal to Ming Dynasty forever!"

As the essence and blood fell on the flag, in an instant, the Fengshen Bang and the Mountain and River Seals shook at the same time, shooting out a glorious light and falling on the flag. At the same time, a large amount of luck emerged from the sea and fell on Madam Mingzhu. One side and the mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty A completely different mountain and river seal appeared in the hands of Madam Mingzhu. This mountain and river seal was obviously much smaller than the Daming Mountain and River Seal, and Lu Xuan could clearly sense that there was also a connection between this mountain and river seal and himself.

At the same time, Lu Xuan also got some feedback from the mountain and river seals. The demon clan also has mountain and river seals, but it is different from the human race's mountain and river seals. The demon clan's mountain and river seals need the permission of the human emperor and the conclusion of an alliance before they can be condensed, and the condensed luck arrives first. Lu Xuan's mountain and river seal flows into the Beng clan's mountain and river seal through Lu Xuan's mountain and river seal. Once it loses this position, the demon clan's mountain and river seal will also disappear completely. It will not reappear until it is recognized by the human race next time. It can be said that the human race's mountain and river seal is A vassal of India. Mrs. Mingzhu also quickly obtained information about the Mountain and River Seal from the Mountain and River Seal. She quickly knelt down and worshiped Lu Xuangong: "Thank you for your blessing, Mingzhu!"

Once a totem is established, people who believe in this totem can understand the Tao of the clan through the totem.

It is different from what was previously guessed. Of course, it is also related to the inheritance method of the demon clan. The inheritance of the demon clan relies on blood. Often, the stronger the ancestors of the demon clan, the stronger the power of the blood. The ancestors integrate the Tao they have understood into the blood. As long as the concentration of bloodline reaches a certain level, future generations will automatically understand the Tao learned by their ancestors. The closer the bloodline is to the ancestors, the more comprehensive the Tao inspired will be. Therefore, many demon clans are born with extremely strong combat power.

However, although this method ensures the lower limit of the strength of future generations, it also limits their upper limit. For most demon clans, the achievements of their ancestors are their achievements. Unless they can realize a new way on their own, there is no need to say anything. It is difficult to surpass the ancestors, even to achieve the achievements of the ancestors.

Using totems as a medium, people recognized by totems will also have similar abilities. They can directly understand the Tao understood by the ancestors of the demon clan through totems. Therefore, establishing a totem is very important to the demon clan and must be done very carefully. Otherwise, once the power of the totem is destroyed, the ethnic group represented by the totem will also be annihilated.

Of course, there are many benefits. Just like now, Mrs. Mingzhu can condense the luck belonging to the Beng clan. She can also display some of the power of the mountain and river seals on her own territory. She can also use the luck to practice and have the opportunity to break the shackles of race.

In addition, totems also have a function, that is, the totem holder can summon the totem race to help fight. For example, now, officials in Donghai County can summon clams of different levels to fight for them according to their own levels, and at the same time share some of the other party's talents. , just like Little Gray Skin Gu Hui shares the appetite and strength of the Elephant Clan, and the other party only needs to agree with the behavior and habits of the Elephant to directly understand the other party's Tao.

The simpler Little Gray Skin is, the faster he progresses.

"Get up." Lu Xuan stretched out his hand to help her, so Mrs. Mingzhu didn't need to be polite.

The successful establishment of the Beng Clan totem means that the Ming Dynasty's totem plan can be promoted across the country. However, if the national animal can command all races, it must be chosen carefully. Only if it can frighten all demons can it be qualified to be the national animal of the Ming Dynasty.

"Yes!" Mrs. Mingzhu was a little excited. The clam clan has always been bullied in the sea. They are at the bottom of the food chain. Even if they cultivated into demon bodies, they were used by all the clans in the sea for decoration or for fun without any resistance. However, with the establishment of the totem this time, the appearance of the mountain and river seals belonging to the Beng clan also means that more masters will appear in the Beng clan in the future. Her bloodline has not improved, but she can more clearly realize that she belongs to the Beng clan. The family's moral responsibility has also improved a bit.

In time, it would be no problem to become the first fourth-grade clam clan.

"In areas where the Beng tribe believes in, eating clams is not allowed. As an official here, I have the obligation to help improve this law." Lu Xuan looked at the prefect of Donghai County and the officials behind him.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I understand." The prefect of Donghai County bowed quickly.

"In addition, the person who signed the totem with the Beng tribe is Donghai County, not an individual. The Beng tribe is a county beast belonging to Donghai County, not your personal pet, do you understand?" Lu Xuan looked at the prefect of Donghai County. After Mrs. Mingzhu appeared, but Being coveted by many, Lu Xuan is not opposed to the love between men and women. He also likes beauty, but he never does anything inappropriate to the women under his command. He is afraid of confusion between public and private affairs. It may be difficult for men and women who sleep on the same bed to separate public and private affairs.

The Beng clan has always been treated as a plaything among the Sea clan, and it is inevitable that some people will have evil thoughts. Lu Xuan warned them in advance so that they would not regret it if something happened later.

The daimyo's laws do not concern personal relationships.

"Yes, your Majesty, don't worry!" The governor of Donghai and other officials felt chilled in their hearts when they heard this and hurriedly bowed down.

"From now on, if there is anything strange about the totem matter, report it to Tiandu immediately. Don't hide it, otherwise you will be severely punished!" The totem matter is over, Lu Xuan is not ready to stay in Donghai County anymore, and looks towards Mingzhu and Donghai The prefect said.

"I obey!" The two of them bowed down quickly.

Lu Xuan didn't say much and immediately returned to Tiandu with his accompanying officials.

"Your Majesty, since the totem thing has been successful and has benefited my luck in the Ming Dynasty, do you want to promote it immediately?" After returning to Chaotian Palace, Yan Danfeng immediately asked Lu Xuan.

Li Xingzhi shook his head: "Although it is done, the specific effect is not yet known, and the relevant laws and systems are not yet complete. I think we should draft the laws first. In addition, we need to be cautious when choosing totems. The stronger the better, the better." Well, the most important thing is suitability, and if local officials are left to handle the matter on their own, the totems may not be suitable for the local area, especially some ferocious beasts. I think these ferocious beasts should be used as military totems."

Lu Xuan nodded. He had the same idea. The rules of this totem must be sorted out clearly.
