"Can I ask about the purpose of Lady Chi coming to Jinxia City this time?" Xia
Fan asked, "If it is to avoid the Privy Council's investigation, it is
definitely the right choice to come here. In addition, I heard that Penglai
Island has been taken by the Privy Council. Watching, I don’t know how many of
your people are on the island? If they intend to relocate, I can also make
arrangements. It should be safer than land by sea."
Although the dragon can fly, it consumes a lot of energy when transforming. It
can cross Shenzhou at most when carrying one person, and then has to rest.
This is also the conclusion he has drawn from Olena's test. Chi may be more
capable of flying, but out of prudent considerations, he still mentions the
migration method.
The other party asked the purpose directly!
Now is a good opportunity to get to the point!
Kong Xuanzi stared at his servant, secretly cheering for him.
Speak up, there must be a satisfactory result this time!
"Do you think dragons are like flying lizards, all over the street?" Chi's
answer was quite different from what Kong Xuanzi expected. "Even in its
heyday, Penglai Island had only three dragons, and now I only have one. But
apart from In addition to the dragon, there are tens of thousands of people
living on it, among them there are more than 20 inspired people. I really
don't want them to fall into the hands of the Privy Council."
"As for the purpose of this trip..." She paused, "I \- I hope to find a place
where dragons are needed to live long."
Kong Xuanzi almost coughed.
"Where do you need a dragon?" Xia Fan asked curiously.
"Have you never heard of the previous rumors? Dragons can disperse clouds and
fog, or drop rain. Once a place is protected by dragons, the weather will be
smooth and the grain will be harvested." Chi raised his chin slightly, "This
is the dragon's ability. It’s the dragon’s vocation—even though I’m underage,
my talent in this area is beyond doubt."
Is it actually closely related to agriculture...
No wonder the other party dared to claim to be an asylum.
We must know that in the long historical process, farming is a matter of
watching the sky.
This is definitely of extraordinary significance to the big countries in the
agricultural era.
It's just that Xia Fan is a little bit confused. Even today, if the dry land
can be rich in rain, it can save thousands of people. How did the dragon
suddenly disappear?
He asked this question.
"These contents are recorded in Penglai's historical records. Kong Xuanzi, let
you tell him."
"Yes." Kong Xuanzi quickly reduced his mind and bowed his hand to Xia Fan,
"Master Xia, this matter can be traced back more than a thousand years."
More than a thousand years-Xia Fan's heart jumped slightly, this span has been
able to make some civilizations from scratch, and then from peak to
extinction.
"At that time, there was no unified dynasty on the mainland, and there were
countless scattered tribes and city states. In some places, even a city was a
country. Whoever can be blessed by the dragon can prosper." Kong Xuanzi said
seriously. , "However, at that time, there were also very few people who felt
breath. Anyone who can awaken the ability to sense breath will become famous."
"After hundreds of years of unity and annexation, two dynasties finally came
to the fore, one named Wei and the other named Chu. The territory of the Wei
dynasty was almost the area of Mao, Feng and Qi now. It was Wei that the
dragon protected at the time. Chao. And Chu can be regarded as the predecessor
of Yong Chao."
In terms of geographical distribution, it is probably the dispute between the
east and the west of the mainland-Wei and Chu are almost equally divided. Xia
Fan thought, "Since the dragon chose the Wei Dynasty, there should be no
shortage of food and grass, and strong soldiers and horses. Why would they
lose to Chu in the end?"
"Because of the changes in the aspirated people." Kong Xuanzi replied,
"According to Penglai records, the aspirated people were still extremely rare
thousands of years ago, but gradually began to increase. It was even more so
during the Shikoku period five hundred years ago. In almost every town, there
can be one or two emotional people. Chu State has taken the first step to
strengthen the management of the emotional people, formally appoint officials
to them, and call those who have official titles as alchemists. This policy
has attracted a lot of emotions. Those who are going to go. By the time it
continuously annexes the other two countries, the number of people who feel
angry has already exceeded that of Wei."
Xia Fan suddenly realized the key, "These alchemists...make the meaning of the
dragon seem less important?"
Chi frowned and glanced at him, but didn't say anything to refute.
Kong Xuanzi sighed and said, "You are admired for your intelligence. When the
number of people who feel inspired is increased, people's ability to resist
beasts, thieves, evildoers, and natural disasters has been greatly improved.
For example, some alchemists who are good at exchange techniques can also
nourish the soil. Turn the barren land into fertile land a little bit; the
alchemist who specializes in hurdles can turn gas into water. Even in the
severe drought years, people will not have nothing to do. On the contrary, it
is the country of Wei, where the wind is blessed by dragons. Well, it is
impossible for Kelong to take care of every piece of land. Under the
circumstances, Chu State is not much worse than Wei State in farming."
That's it.
Xia Fan said in his heart that if ignorance was still the main theme of the
world a thousand years ago, the next five hundred years will give time to
budding ideas. People contact the world, understand the world, and personally
transform the world-this process allows the accumulation of knowledge,
resulting in a significant increase in the number of people who feel inspired.
It's just that no one can notice the connection between the two at a macro
level.
The "abnormal" awakening rate in the school may also be used as one of the
supporting evidence-compared with the practical experience of half
speculation, the academy teaches the essence of thousands of years of
theories, and it seems not. There are several familiar big names standing
behind the eye-catching formula, and the growth rate of knowledge can not be
described as taking off.
"People gradually discovered that ~www.mtlnovel.com~ neighboring countries can
live a good life even if they don't need dragons, so doubts about dragons
began to appear." Kong Xuanzi's voice became a little low, "Because according
to the ancient law, Please Long Zhaoyu needs to place an altar to make
sacrifices. In addition to the three animal sacrifices, ten children under
three years old should be prepared."
Xia Fan looked at Chi in surprise.
This time Chi couldn't help it, "I don't know who came up with this crooked
idea! It's just that the tradition is difficult to change. The children they
used to sacrifice were taken to Penglai Island to be born and raised!"
"Master Chi is telling the truth, and I am one of those sacrificed." Kong
Xuanzi testified, "Unfortunately, Penglai's explanation had little effect. In
addition to the continuous defeat of the Wei State army, the taxation has
increased, and this rumor has become worse. It is becoming more and more
common. If it is only the people's opposition, everyone can endure it.
However, no one expected that it would be the king of Wei and the upper class
that would give Penglai the most fatal blow."
Xia Fan suddenly had a bad feeling, "What happened...what happened?"
"At that time, a new rumor spread in the palace that dragon blood and dragon
heart are great tonic, and they can prolong life for a hundred years after
eating." Kong Xuanzi whispered, "it happened to be that King Wei was sick.
Seeking imperial physicians and people from all over the place were
unsuccessful, so he shot the idea to Long."
