Chapter 166 Forced Buying and Selling
Master Xuan Jing: "..."
He felt that Qiao Jinlan's worries were unnecessary.
He felt that even if everyone in the world died, she would be fine.
For a being that even gods fear, what can a mere evil spirit do to him?
"In fact, there are very few evil spirits in Dazhen. After all, we are all protected by the gods." Master Xuanjing explained.
Qiao Jinlan raised her eyebrows: "Now the gods are no longer useful?"
Master Xuan Jing: "..."
Only Qiao Jinlan dared to say this.
"The situation is unclear right now. Generally speaking, evil spirits will run rampant only when a country's luck is about to run out or it goes against God's will." Master Xuan Jing himself couldn't explain it clearly.
"Master, does the god really protect Dazhen?" Qiao Jinlan didn't quite understand.
If Dazhen is really blessed, then what about the original rules that govern the world?
How could someone like Lu Liangyi reach such a high position in the government? Could the Fourth Prince replace the Crown Prince?
Not to mention anything else, Lu Yunxu has broken away from the constraints of the plot and is actually so capable. People like him are just cannon fodder.
This is so abnormal.
That's all, and you still want God's blessing?
What a bullshit blessing!
Master Xuan Jing was embarrassed for a moment: "In fact, Dazhen is considered to be the lowest among many countries."
"We in Dazhen don't have a family of gods' servants, and we don't have anyone who can communicate with the gods."
"I can pray, but... it's still not enough."
After listening to this, Qiao Jinlan said that she didn't understand it, as it was too mysterious.
"So, the good or bad of a country does not depend on its own efforts, but on the blessing of God?" Qiao Jinlan really couldn't accept this.
"If that's the case, whoever is favored by the gods will live a good life. Then why are we all working so hard? We should all go and curry favor with the gods."
She didn't like it very much.
"That can't be said." Master Xuan Jing said, "Those who can become divine servants and communicate with the gods also have great merits."
Qiao Jinlan couldn't agree with this, and she didn't want to dwell on this issue: "Master, let's not discuss the gods."
"What's going on with the evil spirit appearing in Dazhen?"
She cares more about this.
Master Xuan Jing was also very surprised: "It's not clear yet, but I'm looking for the reason."
"Maybe the evil spirit was just passing by."
"Because I have been tracking its whereabouts, but found that it had disappeared last night."
Qiao Jinlan: “…”
It feels like I'm here as well as not being here.
These questions were too mysterious, so she thought it would be better for her to understand the laws of this world before leaving.
Anyway, if Lu Yunxu fell in love with a girl, she would divorce him and not delay him.
After talking to Master Xuan Jing for a few words, Qiao Jinlan left.
Master Xuan Jing was quite puzzled. The disappearance of the murderous evil spirit seemed to have nothing to do with Qiao Jinlan. Could it be that it was just passing by?
But why do we have to pass through Dazhen?
Master Xuan Jing certainly would not have thought that the evil spirit was dissipated between heaven and earth by Lu Yunxu last night and would never appear again in his life.
Qiao Jinlan decided to go back and study the issue of gods in this world carefully to be prepared for any eventuality.
On the other side, the girl who was driven away by Qiao Jinlan in front of the temple returned to her residence in the capital and smashed all the furnishings in the house in anger.
"How can this be possible? Who is that bitch?"
"Fifth Princess, calm down!" The maid hurriedly knelt down to persuade her, "Why do you have to get so angry over someone like that?"
"I will ask someone to investigate right away, and then I will ask Emperor Jin to bring the person over."
"Now that the person is in our hands, you can vent your anger however you want."
When the fifth princess heard this, she felt relieved.
"Hmph, no wonder Dazhen is not as good as our Daliang. They are all blind guys who actually compete with me." The fifth princess gritted her teeth.
"Wait for my royal brother to come over in a few days and see how arrogant the people on Dazhen's side can still be." The fifth princess said with a proud smile.
On that day, Dazhen competed with their Daliang, and their Daliang actually lost to Dazhen, causing them to lose their good fortune.
This time, they came here to get back at him.
A few days later, the prince and princess of Daliang arrived, and the people of Dajin watched the excitement on the roadside.
"How impressive!"
"That horse is really tall."
"The carriage the princess rides in is so luxurious!"
"Isn't that curtain made of pearls?"
"Of course, that's for the princess."
The people's exclamations were all heard by the Fifth Princess. She snorted with disdain, saying that Dazhen and his gang were so ignorant.
It's ridiculous that a country like Dazhen dares to compete with Daliang.
The third prince and the fifth princess of Daliang arrived at the palace and paid their respects to Emperor Jin.
"Your Majesty, this time we brought the rare treasures obtained by my Daliang, and we want to share them with Dajin." The third prince said with a smile.
"Oh? What is it?" Emperor Jin seemed very curious, but he actually knew in his heart that the people of Daliang definitely had bad intentions.
The two countries have always been in competition and have been competing for resources.
Not to mention, there were wars and conflicts back then.
That is to say, there has been no war in these years.
However, the border soldiers of the two countries were still wary of each other and did not relax at all.
Who knows when the fight will break out?
Would Daliang be so kind as to share good things with them?
This is like a weasel paying a New Year's greeting to the chicken, and he has no good intentions.
"That's right." The Third Prince said with a smile, "We have obtained a spirit beast. As long as we get the spirit beast's approval, we can increase the success rate of our prayers."
"We brought that spirit beast with us. We wanted to see if anyone in Dazhen could gain its recognition."
Emperor Jin's face turned cold: "Spiritual beasts are not easy to come by, I, Great Jin, will not take away what belongs to others."
"Third Prince, such a precious spiritual beast, you in Daliang should take good care of it."
He had never seen a spirit beast, but he knew that all spirit beasts had bad tempers.
Gain recognition from the spirit beast?
How many lives would be lost to fill that gap?
He has no interest in harming his own people.
The third prince smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if you do not want to gain the approval of the spirit beasts, then you must give 50% of the fortune for next year to us in Daliang."
Emperor Jin's face darkened: "Ridiculous!"
This is an attempt to force a sale!
The Third Prince said nothing, but took out a small bamboo tube from his sleeve, then knelt on the ground, respectfully raised the bamboo tube with both hands above his head: "Please invite the spirit beast to appear."
As soon as the bamboo tube was opened, a small green snake came out.
The little snake's entire body was shiny green, like an exquisite gem, but its two eyes were scarlet, and together they looked so beautiful.
It's just that this beauty is weird.
“Your Majesty, if you don’t want to, then don’t blame the spirit beast. If it is unhappy, something bad will happen.” The third prince showed a smug smile when he saw the spirit beast appear.
It is just right to use the people of Dazhen to feed the spirit beasts, so as to save themselves from sacrificing the people of Daliang all day long.
