As Luo Yaguoyan opened his mouth, everyone inside and outside the house was shocked.
How does this celestial soldier start by acknowledging a father figure? Does heaven also have this custom?
Furthermore, who is he acknowledging as his adoptive father? Is it the King of the East, or is it the Heavenly Father Emperor who is residing within the King of the East?
Yang Xiuqing then quietly let out a sigh of relief and then looked at Feng Yunshan, who looked astonished: Was it your kid who played the trick?
At this moment, Luo Yaguoyang had gotten up and taken a very reverent kneeling posture, and then he spoke again: "Report to my adoptive father, I have arrived in the mortal world and have met the Four Holy Sons, the King of the East!"
Oh, he is actually a disciple of the Heavenly Father Emperor...
The people inside and outside the front room all understood that the Heavenly Father's family was growing again. This time, they have children, daughters-in-law, a son-in-law, and a son-in-law.
Then all eyes turned to Yang Xiuqing, for he was now considered God! With the God's adoptive son arriving, would he acknowledge him or not?
Yang Xiuqing then squinted his eyes and carefully examined Luo Yaguoyang, who was kneeling in front of him.
The helmet, clothes, and shoes on the kid's feet, as well as the bizarre-looking two-wheeled flying car he was riding in, are definitely not something you can find in the mortal world. At least Yang Xiuqing has never seen them... Adding to this is Feng Yunshan's claim that he "drove a flying car, rode purple lightning, and descended from the sky", and that many people from both sides have witnessed it with their own eyes.
Even though Feng Yunshan loves to blow his own trumpet, the boasts he makes are not easy to refute. For something like "riding a flying car, riding purple thunder, descending from the heavens," which many people have seen with their own eyes, if it's just an exaggeration, it would be immediately exposed as such.
Feng Yunshan would not do something so unreliable...
After pondering for a while, "Yang God" still couldn't figure out what was going on with the "God son" in front of him.
"Yao Guo, right?" Yang Xiuqing asked indifferently.
"Yes, this child Luo Yao Guo pays respects to the God-Emperor!"
Luo Yaguoyan quickly bowed to "Yang God" and addressed him as "Godfather".
History buffs will know that what Luo Yaguoyang is doing now is called "a great man can bend and then stretch"—he first needs to be able to bend, acknowledge his adoptive father and embrace his leg, and then he can stretch out his aspirations, rise to prominence, and achieve success!
In history, those who achieved great accomplishments are usually either exceptionally talented or fortunate, with a few being particularly outstanding. Others may have been exceptionally skilled at being born into influential families or at being able to associate themselves with powerful people.
To gain a foothold in the decision-making circle of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom before the Tianjing Incident, one must embrace the leg of the Heavenly Father Emperor. One must either become his child or his son-in-law, or at least be his adopted son... In any case, one's name must be written in the family registry of the Heavenly Father.
Otherwise, he would only be able to circle around the core circle, and it's impossible for him to help Hong Xiuquan "sit back and win" unless he is invited to join the inner circle.
And "Yang God" of course has to stick to the "God's family" quota and not let anyone just easily join in. This is also a consensus among the several kings of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, including "Godwife" Hong Xuanjiao, so over the past two years, Yang Xiuqing has represented God and eliminated many who desperately wanted to make progress and were trying to get on God's good side.
But this "descendant from heaven"... is obviously different from others!
He might really be sent by the God!
It's possible that he is truly God's adopted son!
Perhaps he has a bit of magical power...
Yang Xiuqing, the "false God," was also hesitant when facing Luo Yao Guo, the "true celestial being." He hasn't broken his face with this God's adopted son yet, and the latter has also acknowledged his position as the "God's representative." This indicates that there is still room for negotiation between the two.
Since there is still a chance for negotiation, let's continue the discussion.
"Yao Guo," Yang Xiuqing pointed at Hong Xiuquan, "do you recognize him?"
Luo Yao Guo turned to look and saw a middle-aged man wearing a yellow brocade mandarin jacket, with a yellow embroidered dragon hat, of medium height, with fair skin, broad forehead, and a few strands of long beard.
The man was stroking his beard with his hand, gazing at Luo Yao Guo with a somewhat distant look in his eyes.
"Vassal pays homage to the Heavenly Father's Second Son, the Heavenly Son, the True Saintly Holy Lord!" Luo Yao Guo recognized at a glance that the person Yang Xiuqing was pointing at was Hong Xiuquan, and he hurriedly kowtowed.
He is a history major who has even considered making studying the history of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom his profession. How could he not know what Hong Xiuquan looked like in terms of his clothing and appearance? There are many senior scholars in the field who have devoted their time to verifying Hong Xiuquan's appearance and attire. Luo Yao Guo has read these papers as well.
Hong Xiuquan just saw Luo Yao Guo acknowledge "Yang God" as his adoptive father, and his face turned pale with anger. However, upon seeing this "true celestial being" kowtow to him with respect and calling himself a "vassal," he felt that the "true celestial being" was now one of his own, and so he smiled.
"Who is this?" Yang Xiuqing pointed to Xiao Chaogui and asked, "Do you know him?"
Luo Yao Guo glanced over, and saw a broad and muscular man with a menacing face. He immediately recognized him as the "Jesus hero".
Now Luo Yao Guo didn't kneel down. He had already acknowledged the God as his adoptive father, so how could he kneel to Xiao Chaogui, his adoptive brother-in-law? After all, Old Xiao hasn't had Jesus possess him yet!
So he put his hand on the ground and stood up, looking straight at "Xiao Jesus" and said: "Although I don't recognize you, seeing you standing next to Sixth Princess, I must be the sixth Marquis."
Xiao Chaogui is a rare tall guy in these days! His height is not less than 1.75 meters, which is not remarkable in the 21st century, but among the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's army mainly composed of impoverished peasants and miners, he is a first-class giant.
Luo Yao Guo was born in the 21st century, a new generation of youth from the 2000s. What kind of nutrition? He was well-fed since childhood, so he grew to be 1.78 meters tall. Moreover, he has a handsome appearance with thick eyebrows and large eyes, looking very upright, and he really has a bit of the aura of "a celestial being descending to earth."
"Yes, yes, I am his sixth daughter of the Heavenly Father!" The white and delicate, slightly beautiful young woman next to Xiao Chaogui smiled and said, "Big brother, did we not know each other in the heavens?"
"Of course, I did." Luo Yao Guo smiled and said, "It's truly wonderful that the princess was able to find such a good match when she descended to earth. It's something to be happy and cheered about."
The woman, of course, was Hong Xuanjiao, originally known as Yang Yunjiao. Hearing Luo Yao Guo's congratulations, she giggled and said, "What princess? Too formal. You're the adoptive son of the Heavenly Father; you should call me Six Sister."
"Good Six Sister." Luo Yao Guo immediately cupped his hands and bowed to Hong Xuanjiao.
"Haha......" Hong Xuanjiao wanted to speak again, but the "God" who was sitting upright in the rosewood throne suddenly made a muffled cough. This girl, who has a bit of a meltdown and loves to laugh loudly, immediately quieted down.
Yang Xiuqing gave a subtle nod to another burly man with a handsome appearance, and the man, with a smile on his face, asked, "Brother Luo, do you recognize me?"
"Good Five Brother." Luo Yao Guo also bowed to the man, and said, "If I remember correctly, in the mortal world, Five Brother should be surnamed Wei and serve as the sixth King with a lifespan of six thousand years."
"Hahaha, you're right, you're right." The short and stout man laughed heartily, giving off an air of warmth and approachability.
If Luo Yao Guo hadn't known in advance how cruel the North King Wei Changhui of the celestial kingdom was, he might really have thought of him as a good person!
Yang Xiuqing saw that Luo Yao Guo correctly identified all the relatives of the God's family without any mistakes, and he gave a subtle nod to a handsome young man standing next to Wei Changhui. The young man immediately bowed his hand and said, "I am the seventh son of the Heavenly Father, Shi Da Kaiping!"
Luo Yao Guo also bowed his hand and smiled, "Greeting the seventh brother."
Although Shi Da Kaikai's physical age is a year or two younger than his, Luo Yao Guo would still prefer to be Shi Da Kaikai's younger brother... He will be the littlest brother now, and the older brothers and sisters should take more care of him.
Shi Da Kaikai revealed a quite brilliant smile, joked, "Then I'll call you eight brother... Eight brother." He first recognized Luo Yao Guo's status and then posed a question: "What did the Heavenly Father send you down to do this time?"
Hearing Shi Da Kaikai ask the same question that Luo Yao Guo also wanted to know, Yang Xiuqing fixed his eyes on Luo Yao Guo with one eye.
Luo Yao Guo wouldn't immediately say that he was sent down to teach Yang Xiuqing and Hong Xiuquan how to do things... Although he had no experience in mingling in society except for delivering takeout, his specialty was studying those kings, princes, and ministers from history!
These people, they're full of ego!
Now Luo Yao Guo is going to teach Yang Xiuqing and Hong Xiuquan how to conquer the world in front of so many people, and the two of them will definitely not be able to coexist peacefully.
This matter needs to be discussed privately with Feng Yunshan, Brother Feng San. After all, among the few kings in the Heavenly Kingdom now, only he seems to care more about the overall situation and has enough political wisdom. Moreover, he was the one who witnessed Luo Yao Guo's descent from heaven!
This is truly seeing with your own eyes!
In addition, Luo Yao Guo remembered that there was a pack of Western medicine in his delivery box that could relieve Feng Yunshan's pain...
"Seven Brother," Luo Yao Guo said, "The Heavenly Father knows that Brother San is in trouble and has been injured, so He sent me down to help Brother San solve his difficulties and also to bring some medicinal herbs for his injury. By the way, Brother told me to bring some food from heaven for all the brothers and sisters."
