Arriving outside the City Lord's Mansion, Beichen Yuqing looked at the people in front of him and said loudly: "My fellow Taoists, there is an opportunity waving to you. The Queen promised that this opportunity will allow you to regain your dignity!"
Simple words, but they made everyone's eyes light up. For those who were slaves, they were more eager than anyone else to regain their dignity!
Unlike those who were born as slaves, those who were born as slaves had no so-called dignity, and when they were freed from slavery, they would only cheer and celebrate—even many slaves would be confused.
Lan Yunhe and others were not born to be slaves. Many of them were once high and mighty, but eventually, for various reasons, they gradually became slaves. The struggles, tortures, and sufferings they experienced during this period were beyond the imagination of outsiders. The cruelty of forcing a high and mighty master to be tortured into a slave was beyond the imagination of outsiders.
Lan Yunhe and others chose to continue to fall into the abyss, in large part because they were trying to escape.
But escaping does not mean that they do not desire dignity; in fact, they desire dignity more than anyone else, but are afraid to touch dignity, and they do not know how to regain it.
Beichen Yuqing looked at it slowly, and then spoke again, "But opportunities don't fall from the sky. If you want an opportunity, you need to swear to keep it secret. I believe in you, but others may not. And this time, you will be exposed to some secrets of the Shang Dynasty."
Lan Yunhe spoke first, and without hesitation: "I, Lan Yunhe, am willing to swear to the heaven and earth with my soul, my true spirit, and three lives and three lifetimes that everything I see next will be kept secret. Otherwise, it will be completely reduced to ashes without a trace."
There was a leader, and then all the more than 3,000 people were wiped out. The oath caused the heaven and earth to respond, and evil spirits rolled in the sky, and lightning boiled. The heaven and earth seemed to acknowledge this oath.
After everyone finished swearing, Beichen Yuqing looked at the sky and immediately led the way to Qingyun Valley. When everyone saw that they were going to Qingyun Valley, their eyes immediately lit up.
Although they swore without hesitation just now, it was because they knew that they had no retreat and no choice. Although Beichen Yuqing seemed easy to talk to, if anyone did not swear, the consequences would be unpredictable. After all, Beichen Yuqing was still one of the commanders of the Shang Dynasty, and he often had to think about things from the perspective of the Shang Dynasty.
However, when they heard that they were going to Qingyun Valley, their eyes lit up. In the Shang Dynasty, who didn't know what Qingyun Valley represented? It represented miracles!
When they arrived at the outskirts of Qingyun Valley, it was already nightfall. The front of Qingyun Valley was very vast, with many buildings and factories. Beichen Yuqing led everyone to a large warehouse that had been temporarily vacated, where people were already busy.
As soon as everyone entered, a barrier was immediately erected around them, completely preventing outside detection.
Time passed little by little, and it was 19 o'clock while waiting. At this time, Xia Qingqing, Xu Ren, Li Yuanming, Yan Ze'an, Yuan Yong, Ji Fangzhu, and other high-level officials of the Shang Dynasty also arrived.
A large door in the north of the warehouse slowly opened, and Li Xian slowly walked in.
Beichen Yuqing's eyes flashed with excitement, and he shouted loudly: "Greetings, King Xian."
