Lord of the Earth

"Bai Qi takes the order!"

Bai Qi stretched out his hands and took over a jade identity token brought by the "Headless Ghost" and a "Tiger Talisman" symbolizing the head of the military palace. His eyes were calm and unaffected by the attitudes of some territorial residents. .

Unlike Li Ru, who chose to change his name.

Mr. Wu An is Mr. Wu An after all!

Even if he knew that he would be criticized in later generations and was exaggerated by some literati as a "god of murder" with heinous crimes, he would never do such a thing as "change his name"!
  Even Bai Qi did not give any explanation to justify the reason why he massacred [-] Zhao soldiers.

However, although I don’t care about what others think of me.

But at this time, Bai Qi, who had received the "Jade Tiger Talisman", looked at Xia Tian with a rare fluctuation.

Just because Xia Tian, ​​on the five-color altar just after "Sacrificing Heaven and Ancestors", in front of all the people in the entire territory, and against the possible opposition and confusion of many territory residents, forcibly appointed a Chuzhi Territory, and has not established too much A person with many meritorious deeds can become the "Lord of the Palace" under one person!
  Even if Xia Tian is a lord, it is inevitable that he will receive some incomprehensible looks.

It may even lower some "popular sentiment" as a result.

However, Xia Tian doesn't care much.

Although he wants to act as a "hands-off shopkeeper" in many things.

However, when it comes to matters such as the appointment of personnel in the territory, the lord must have the status of "one word"!

Even someone like He Shen.

If you want to use it, just make the decision directly.

"Well, it's a good thing that General Bai Qi is the head of the Military Affairs Palace!"

"Yes, with Lord Wu An here, what are the aliens?"

"Sir, you are so powerful. Even General Bai Qi can invite us, Bai Yujing! Those aliens who dare to offend our human race will be dead!"

However, Xia Tian still underestimated his position in the territory.

Although some people do have doubts about Bai Qi's identity, after Xia Tian has made the decision, most of the territory residents no longer have doubts and rejection in their hearts.

There was even a look of excitement on his face.

After all, the "massacre of millions of people" on one's own side and on the side of others are completely different situations.

"Qi Jiguang led the Qi family army to kill more than a thousand Japanese pirates and more than a thousand water tribes... developed the 'Suzaku Gun' and improved the 'Taotie Chariot'... made Qi Jiguang the 'camp leader' of the territory and was rewarded with a set of Huangjintai Mansion... The monthly salary is [-]. All soldiers of the Qi Family Army will each receive a reward of [-] days of yuan coins!"

Compared with Bai Qi in the Warring States Period.

As a person from the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, he was still Qi Jiguang in the late Ming Dynasty, and his popularity was undoubtedly much lower!
  However, Xia Tian's detailed list of Qi Jiguang's achievements also convinced everyone in the territory.

In particular, the "Suzaku Gun" now plays a vital role in the territory.

The reason why those alien creatures below the fifth level of mortal transformation are singing and dancing is precisely because of the appearance of this big killer weapon...

"Sir, I would like to request that the Qi Family Army be renamed the 'Shenji Camp'..."

However, after accepting the "jade card" held by the headless ghost and god.

Qi Jiguang suddenly said something, which made Xia Tian stunned.

Well, change the name of the army you command?
  Such a request is really surprising.

But then I thought that the person who said such words was Qi Jiguang, and it made sense again.

If someone else said such words, Xia Tian felt that it might be a deliberate test. He wanted to know whether his military power would be weakened after joining the territory?
  But when Qi Jiguang said these words, Xia Tian believed that they were sincere.

Just because, this famous historical general who looks like he has thick eyebrows, big eyes, Chinese character face, firm eyes, and a loyal face is actually a very smooth person who knows how to advance and retreat.

After all, most people really can't use the words "the lackey" when writing letters!

"The Qi Family Army is the famous and powerful army of our Chinese people! It resisted the Japanese, guarded the border, and aided the DPRK, and its achievements are shining in the annals of history... How can such an army be wiped out?!"

Xia Tian shook his head at Qi Jiguang.

"However, since General Qi mentioned the 'Shenji Battalion', I wonder if you can train a 'Shenji Battalion' for me?"

What did Xia Tian think of.

If I remember correctly, Qi Jiguang was not just the leader of the Qi family army.

At the same time, he also served as the deputy commander of the Shenji Battalion!

Compared with the Qi Family Army, the Shenji Battalion may not have an outstanding record in terms of performance.

But as the first firearms unit in the history of the entire earth, it is definitely the top gold color, and even has the qualification to touch the "jade white" rating!

"Qi Jiguang has accepted the order... and will train a strong army for you."

Qi Jiguang's eyes were serious and somewhat grateful.

"Jiang Wei, defeated the extraordinary dragon in the 'Hundred Years' Duel'... was appointed as the 'camp leader' of the territory, and was rewarded with a Golden Terrace mansion, and a monthly salary of [-] days of yuan coins... The 'Wu Dang Flying Army' under his command were each rewarded with five Ten days of yuan coins..."

"Yan Lingji, in the 'Hundred Years Duel'... a monthly salary of four hundred..."

"Pu Yuan, create a spiritual sword for the territory... a monthly salary of four hundred!"

Next, Xia Tian announced the rewards for Jiang Wei, Yan Lingji and others.

Finally, there are the outstanding people who have only joined the territory in the past three days.

For example, this person named "Pu Yuan" has the same occupation as Tang Long, a blacksmith.

However, compared to making weapons for rebellious separatist forces like Liangshan in Water Margin, Tang Long's initial skills were only expert level!
  Pu Yuan is a historical figure rated by Silver, and his service targets the entire Shu Kingdom.

According to records, when Zhuge Liang attacked Wei, he ordered Pu Yuan to make sabers for the army.

After Pu Yuan chose to make the knife embryo in "Xiegu", he said that the water in Hanzhong area was soft water and was not suitable for quenching.

The water of Shujiang River is the gathering of the essence of metals in the world.

So he sent people to Shu to collect water from the river.

After the soldier got the water back, Pu Yuan frowned after quenching the knife with the water he got back, saying that the water was mixed with Fujiang water and was not suitable for quenching the knife.

The person who collected the water insisted that no other water was mixed with it.

Pu Yuan took a knife and gestured in the water. After looking at the knife, he directly said that eight liters of Fujiang water was mixed in it.

After hearing this, the man who fetched the water knelt down and kowtowed, saying that when he fetched the water and walked to the Fujiang River, some of the water spilled on the ground.

Therefore, eight liters of Fujiang water was added on the spot.

Later, after getting water again, Pu Yuan made a full three thousand knives for Zhuge Liang.

To make the knife, use a bamboo tube filled with iron beads. When you lift the knife and drop it, the bamboo tube will break as if you missed the cut. It is known as the "Magic Knife"!
  This deed was recorded in an article by Jiang Wei, and Pu Yuan also joined Bai Yujing after being recommended by Jiang Wei in the city of outstanding people.

"As a result, the territory already has two master-level blacksmiths. One is good at casting armors, the other is good at casting weapons, and both have the ability to forge spiritual weapons. Even if Gan Jiang, Mo Xie and his wife go to other territories, they can still The territory provides certain guarantees!”

Xia Tian thought secretly.

"It's just that it shouldn't be... When the 'City of Heroes' was closed, General Mo Xie and his wife made an appointment with me to personally witness the promotion of the 'Seven Star Longyuan Sword' into a 'magic weapon'! Now, this weapon has It's almost done. Logically speaking, these two people shouldn't move elsewhere..."

Xia Tian felt a little puzzled.

……

Clang, Clang, Clang!

When time moved forward slightly, in an area about two or three hundred miles away from Bai Yujing, in a huge canyon that looked like a knife splitting, a large amount of fog enveloped the sky, making the environment appear very dark and humid. Difficulty seeing.

On the cliffs, there is no grass growing, but there are exposed stones of various shapes, with different colors rich in metallic substances.

At this time, at the bottom of the canyon, beside a spring that was gurgling and forming a pool and stream, a blacksmith shop with a style of the Spring and Autumn Period was standing on the ground.

"Ding ding ding..."

The sound of blacksmithing with a strange rhythm sounded in it.

"This Lingxi is the entire land. The metal essence gathers together, and it inherently carries a powerful killing aura."

"Although it is not as good as the rare 'Weapon Gold' brought by Lord Xia at the beginning, it still has a similar effect. It can be said that this is the spring water bred by heaven and earth that is most suitable for tempering weapons...even... Any stone thrown into the water will eventually be tempered into a good material for forging weapons..."

The tall general held a freshly baked, two-meter-long nine-ring saber in his hand and put it into the pool.

Suddenly, in the white mist produced by quenching, there was a faint sound of a large number of metals clashing.

Soon, this knife had a flash of light on it, and it had a murderous aura. Shockingly, it has transformed from an embryo into a superior spiritual weapon!

"This 'stream' is of great value... We must guard it until Bai Yujing's people arrive!"

In order to occupy this place, the two of them had "placed" all the strange objects and buildings they had brought with them, which was one of the reasons why they were unable to go to Bai Yujing!

But this is not the main thing.

The really troublesome thing is that there are not only human beings in this canyon.

There is also a group of creatures who call themselves "gray dwarves".

There are tens of thousands of them, and they are also good at forging weapons.

He is also very coveted for this "spiritual spring" that has a powerful "tempering" ability and can be called a rare treasure in the world.

Now they are constantly taking spring water downstream to refine weapons, and they have even reached the upper reaches.

If he and Mo Xie hadn't both possessed extraordinary levels of strength, which made these gray dwarves fearful, they might have directly occupied this "stream"!
  But it was also because they were afraid of being occupied by foreigners that the two of them delayed leaving for Bai Yujing.

And these gray dwarves seem to be somewhat dissatisfied with simply fetching water downstream.

I'm afraid that in the next few days, some measures will be taken to forcefully approach the "spring" of this stream!

"Well, look, it seems like..."

And right now.

In the sky, the scene of Bai Yujing's "Five Color Altar" suddenly appeared, even penetrating through the clouds and mist to the bottom of the canyon!
  Leading to this canyon.

The attention of both humans and duergar.

And at the same time.

Another place not too far away from here.

Five people were gathering around a place on the ground. A beast with a body similar to an eagle and a head similar to that of a Western dragon... which was more than ten meters in size and had signs of being burnt black after being struck by thunder, lay on the ground without any traces. Breath of life!
  "Thank you, General Tiangong! If it hadn't been for the general's help, I wouldn't have died at the hands of this beast..."

The speaker was dressed in green clothes, about forty or fifty years old, with a slender figure and eyes as clear as mirrors.

It was Sima Hui who was known as Mr. Shui Jing!
  "There is no need to be polite. You and I are both human beings, and we are both Chinese people. Naturally, we cannot allow this monster to act recklessly... Besides, Mr. Shui Jing, you are the elder of 'Shi Yuan'... We should help each other as much as we can." !”

The apricot-yellow Taoist robe, Fu Zhang said in the middle-aged man's mouth, exudes a god-like and holy feeling in every move, making people feel like they are bathed in the spring breeze.

"There are dangers everywhere in the Eternal Land. If Mr. Shui Jing doesn't mind it, why not stay here with us and reminisce about the past with 'Shi Yuan'..."

Hearing this, Sima Hui was about to say something.

"Hey, look at the sky."

The sky above the heads of several people suddenly glowed with golden light.

Immediately, a "five-color altar" filled with people with powerful auras emerged, as well as a scene where Bai Yujing was "overcoming the tribulation"!

"Hey, Mr. Shui Jing! Look, that person seems to be 'Kong Ming'?"

The speaker was a man with bushy eyebrows and a slightly pudgy figure with flaring nostrils.

"Sacrifice to the sky, the way of luck...Mr. Shui Jing, Brother Shiyuan! Look at the situation, do you know the human forces in this place?"

The man wearing an apricot yellow robe and holding a talisman asked with a bit of curiosity.

"This……"

Sima Wei hesitated slightly.

"I don't know this so-called 'human territory'... However, the person holding a feather fan and standing in the second row of the altar to participate in the sacrifice is indeed someone we are familiar with."

The short, fat man in a long gown with an ugly face spoke first.

"Oh, both of them are great talents in the world. I'm afraid this 'Kong Ming' is also a great talent. I would like to meet him...?"

The middle-aged man in apricot-yellow Taoist robes and talisman staff said with a smile on his face.

"I don't know if it can be used by our Yellow Turban Army..."

Another man whose body was covered with traces of thunder runes, whose eyebrows and hair were white, and who had a fierce temperament, said in a loud voice.

The ugly man with thick eyebrows known as "Shi Yuan" and Sima Hui looked at each other without saying anything.

And soon Bai Yujing was promoted, and the strange phenomena in the sky also disappeared.

"Is this the test that needs to be passed to establish the 'City of Luck'? It seems to be more difficult than I expected!"

Apricot yellow Taoist robe, Talisman said from the middle-aged man's mouth.

"General Tiangong is powerful, and he is assisted by two extraordinary beings, General Digong and General Renggong... He also has [-] believers and [-] troops under his command. It should not be difficult to establish the so-called 'City of Luck'!"

The short, fat man with a slightly ugly appearance said.

"Ha, thank you Shiyuan for your kind words... If I still have to deal with it, I just want to say goodbye."

The middle-aged man in an apricot-yellow Taoist robe and a talisman stood up with a bit of confidence in his eyes.

"By the way, gentlemen, if you want to go out to that human territory, you can let my two younger brothers escort you. Their strength is not weak. Even if they encounter such extraordinary monsters again, they can handle it with ease... …”

Before leaving, he pointed to the side, a man with a bright aura and a sinister expression on his body!
  In the surrounding area, there were even more camps where the Yellow Turban Army was stationed.

A large number of Yellow Turban troops patrol in an orderly manner, with neat military appearance. They do not look like rebels at all!
  "This General Tiangong... is quite generous. He is willing to let you and I leave, and even sends troops to escort..."

When '' left, Sima Hui said.

"Shh, shut up."

The ugly man said something.

"What! What are you thinking, brother? We want to make great achievements in this eternal land, spread the teachings of peace, and build the 'Immortal Kingdom'... This kind of talent should naturally be in our hands. How can we send it out? Even, You need us to help escort..."

"Hmph, eldest brother is probably just being polite. If these two people really choose to leave... we may not have to work too hard when escorting. There are crises everywhere in the Eternal Land. If I want to leave, it's no wonder that something happens in the middle. Who?"

Because, you can vaguely hear the complaints of General Di Gong and General Ren Gong.

Sima Hui frowned slightly.

The short, fat man with thick eyebrows known as "Shi Yuan" had an expression on his face that didn't care at all.

Until the other three people had completely left.

"Mr. Shui Jing, it seems that you did not trick me. The 'Bai Yujing' you told me before is indeed extraordinary!"

The short, fat man with thick eyebrows said just now.

"Yes, Shi Yuan, Bai Yujing is the strongest territory of the nearby human race. It has tens of thousands of armored men and hundreds of thousands of residents. It now controls a destiny city... In my eyes, it has more power than the Yellow Turban Army. A long way to go.”

"However, since Kong Ming is already there. Moreover, it seems that he has many outstanding people. Even if I go, I'm afraid I won't get much use... On the contrary, this Yellow Turban Army, although it was once considered a 'rebel' in our Han Dynasty, . But in this eternal place, there is no home and country, and naturally there is no so-called monarch."

"In addition, the three Zhang Jiao brothers are very powerful, and these yellow scarf warriors under their command are capable of fighting fierce tigers. If they can really help build a city and a country, it will be a proud achievement..."

The short, fat man shook his head, turning it outward until his nostrils were pointing upward, with a bit of arrogance.

"Ha, others don't know what I think of you, how could I not know what you think of Pang Shiyuan..."

"This Yellow Turban Army does have all the benefits you mentioned. Zhang Jiao himself is not bad. It seems that after reincarnation and experience in the 'Sea of ​​Illusion', he does have some potential as a 'human master', and he also respects us quite a bit. , but his two brothers have no good feelings towards you and me..."

"Therefore, in my opinion, except for this corner, the rest of the people may not be able to catch your eye, Pang Shiyuan. I am afraid that the reason why I stay here is not to 'make achievements', but for ulterior motives."

The man with thick and messy eyebrows and an ugly face said,

"You, you still want to compare with Kong Ming. However, looking at this situation, Kong Ming has already gained the trust of the Lord of Bai Yujing, and has a pivotal position in that human city. If you want to surpass him, I'm afraid Too difficult...unless..."

Sima Hui looked at him with a half-smile.

"Unless what?"

The latter's slightly ugly face showed a somewhat unnatural expression.

"Unless you can think of a way to make these [-] Yellow Turban troops belong to Bai Yujing. By then, Kong Ming will have to be willing to admit that he is not as good as you..."

Sima Hui's eyes were like a pool of water, with a bit of a smile on his face.

"Humph, I may not be able to!" (End of Chapter)
