Above the clouds over the west Qí city, the monster Qunpeng revealed his shape.
He has been watching over here in Xique, just wanting to accumulate some merit and virtue. At the very least, he wants to gain the recognition of human fortune.
He saw it all in today's big show.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with greed and more of wariness.
Chest of Treasures and Gold, the Supreme Primordial Spiritual Treasure!
For a treasure of such degree to fall into Yu Yuán's hands, it is truly beyond prediction!
If this divine treasure were in my possession
He slowly shook his head. Igniting the Lantern never used the Treasure Money after obtaining it, and Kunpeng's eyes are even more keen than those of Igniting the Lantern. The Treasure Money is indeed tempting, but it hides a big pit.
Since the beginning of creation until today, Kunpeng is not lacking in patience. He wants to take a closer look and think about it again, maybe he can find a way to use this divine treasure without any backlash.
Deng Zhong, who is in Xiqi, relied on the intelligence network of the stonemasons brotherhood to obtain most of the information about the battle at Si Shui Pass. He then quickly sent a letter back to Nandu.
"Treasure-hunting gold coins?" Deng Chanyu also had a thought similar to Kunpeng's. If she could use this divine treasure without any damage, then she would be a winner!
This supreme primordial spiritual treasure is mainly about "Hand it over to you!" It is very suitable for those who have crossed over.
Unfortunately, at the moment, this can only be a thought. The way of the heavens is very fair in this regard. If you want to use the Treasure Money to seize someone else's divine treasure? Then exchange it with your own fortune! If the fortune is not enough to cover it, then use luck, cultivation, merit, fate. Still not enough? Then there is only one way left - death.
This divine treasure is indeed powerful, but using it is incredibly perilous. It's estimated that only sages with ample fortune can use this treasure. However, since they are already sages, they wouldn't even look at the Treasure Money.
The events in Xique need to be concerned about, but it's not necessary for her to personally take the field and do anything.
These days, she hasn't been hanging out with Jiaji. Although the classmate of Jiaji is sweet and salty, and excels in various role-playing, it does get a bit taxing on the kidneys after a while.
Compared to the Treasure-hunting Gold Coins, there is now something more important for her to do.
That's right! She needs to organize a huge celebration!
Killing fields stretch out to the north, rivers of blood flow to the south. Is it appropriate for her to organize a celebration in the south? This seems inappropriate? In reality, this event is more important than God of Deities.
The content of the celebration is to celebrate the birthday of Nuwa, the goddess.
Nowadays, humans no longer worship Nuwa as much. No matter what great deeds the Human Sainted Mother had done, she has gradually disappeared into the entire civilization over time. However, on the annual date of March 15th, known as Nuwa's Christmas Day, humans still remember her.
In the original timeline, the Shou Wang wrote poetry at Nuwa Temple on March 15th, which triggered the anger of the sage and led to a series of subsequent events.
In this timeline, the King of Shou did not write poetry at the Nuwa Temple, and Nuwa does not care about the specific nature of human emperors. She is indifferent to her own birthday; you can remember it or not, it doesn't matter to me.
Deng Chanyu cannot be indifferent! Cling to the big leg of Nuwa tightly, that is the most important thing. Follow Nuwa's steps, even if later the Demon Lord Luo Hong kills back and the Hou Hun Land collapses, she can hide in Tai Su Tiang.
Compared to the saint's birthday, the Battle of Si Shui Pass and the competition for power among humans are all trivial matters.
There is chaos in the north, and whether they sacrifice to Nuwa or not is none of her concern, but in the south, it must be celebrated! There is no room for negotiation.
You say I am a citizen of Panyu, a citizen of Pandu, a citizen of what-have-you, and that I do not worship Nuwa? That's not acceptable! If you dare to refuse, it will be death!
After many years, through subtle observation and indirect inquiries, Deng Jiugong and his colleagues have more or less understood that Nuwa seems to be the biggest deity on their side. Worshiping whom isn't the point? Deng Chanyu strongly insists that they worship Nuwa.
Deng Jiuyu will still respect the temples of the sages and those in the Fire Cloud Cave, but all other temples of gods will be knocked down and replaced with a temple for Nuwa.
Who is against it? Stand up and let me see!
With her strong push, almost all of the southern regions reached the level of "south in the south", building hundreds of temples.
Doing so would definitely harm the people, but she doesn't care! At that time, buying more slaves from Ta-Tu would make up for that loss.
As for the gold and silver spent? Fe Zhong and You Hu have recently accumulated a lot.
"Aunt Five, your sermon is too rigid." She held a tribute script for the main officiant at the celebration and sought advice from Aunt Five, who was responsible for the specific work.
As a tribe chief in the primitive society who transformed into a military aristocrat in the slave society, the Deng family naturally became a very large family.
Earlier, they were scattered throughout the land. Now that the power of Han Empire is rising, the relatives from all over the country have naturally gathered here.
The old man in front of Deng Chanyu was the fifth brother of Deng Jiugong according to seniority, a cousin, and equivalent to the role of Guan in the Shou Wang's side, responsible for communicating with the ancestors and excelling in the ritual work. Recently, he was dispatched to help Deng Chanyu organize the celebration.
The old man with his white beard trembled as he picked up the scripture, looked at it twice carefully: "Niece, do you think there's anything wrong?"
What's wrong? Everything's wrong!
Deng Chanyu pointed to the tribute script, which was filled with phrases like "clear river and tranquil sea, towering mountains and serene rivers" and "the inception of civilization, a country of etiquette and ritual."
She estimated that this article would be very effective if recited to the deceased ancestors, but based on her understanding of her teacher, if Nuwa heard this scripture, she would most likely fall asleep, smelly and long-winded, too boring.
Nuwa has already transferred the part of her personality with a particularly "decaying" attribute to Laozi's teacher, the Elder Goddess Laozi, so that she is more likely to please her teacher by making things more lively.
"Make it more lively. Celebration, celebration! What is 'celebration'? Uncle Five, our goal here is not to worship the ancestors, but to celebrate. There's no need for solemnity!"
Uncle Five was not pleased to hear this. His white beard trembled: "Nuwa is the Mother of the Human Race, and everyone should show the greatest respect to the Mother. Even if you become some kind of immortal, you should maintain respect! You are still a part of the human race."
Deng Chanyu: "?"
I haven't said I don't respect.
She scratched her head and said, "It's my teacher; we have a really good relationship?"
That's impossible to say!
I don't want to explain, and it can't be explained clearly either.
She made a decisive decision: "Just do as I say, make it lively and brief. Our celebration is mainly about celebrating, not following a ritual."
The old man also suggested that everyone should wear gray shirts and yellow pants on the celebration day, symbolizing "glory." However, Deng Chanyu rejected this suggestion, as the north calls us the "Huan Han" already. What's the point of wearing gray clothes? Are we changing our water attribute?
Don't do all that unnecessary stuff. Change everything back to what it was!
The old man looked at her with a complex expression, as if she were desecrating the ancestral heritage: "You'll regret this."
Deng Chanyu firmly shook her head: "I am the one in charge of the worship, not you!"
