Shen Lang couldn't help being surprised, he just arrived here.
Why are these hundreds of thousands of people shouting long live? At this time, there was no mobile phone, nor any long-distance communication system, and it was impossible for Zhu Hongxue to inform the people in Mojing in advance that Shen Lang had arrived.
But Zhu Hongxue and Princess Ning Han didn't seem very surprised when they saw this scene.
Seeing Shen Lang's astonishment, Zhu Hongxue explained: "Your Majesty, I told you before that people need a leader and hope, so even though you are not here, we still specially carved a statue to sit on the throne. There is a small court meeting every day, and a big court meeting once every five days, and we also completed a complete restructuring more than 20 years ago, so we already have a complete court hall, including the Shangshutai and the Privy Council."
Shen Lang couldn't help being completely astonished, there is such a thing.
This is the ancient ruins developed by Tianya Haige. It is a detached force. I didn't expect to build a complete court hall.
Princess Ning Han said: "Your Majesty, the more critical the moment is, the more formalized it is. Belief must be implanted in everyone's heart, otherwise it will really collapse and it will be completely unbearable."
Shen Lang couldn't help thinking of a sentence, life needs to be ritualized.
Especially in this difficult time, this kind of ritualized life can support people to continue to live.
Zhu Hongxue said: "Your Majesty, there is one thing that requires your forgiveness."
Shen Lang said: "Please tell me.
Zhu Hongxue said: "After you fought the decisive battle with the Emperor of the Great Yan Empire, Zhu Hongzhu died. But you issued an order to release Zhu Rong, Zhu Hongping, Zhu Ning and everyone else, without questioning the crime or depriving them of fame."
Shen Lang said: "It's true, what's the matter?"
Zhu Hongxue said: "Although I was adopted by the Zhu family, I am still the son of the Zhu family, so when the upheaval in the North Pole happened, I brought all the family members of the Zhu family to Mojing. Because there is too little talent, So Zhu Rong re-entered the Shangshutai as the interim deputy minister of the Dagan Empire."
Shen Lang said: "Then who is the first prime minister?"
Zhu Hongxue said: "The teacher, Zuo Ci, will be in charge. There are also two vice chancellors, Zuo Yan and Li Guangdou. Do you still remember Zhang Zhao?"
Shen Lang thought for a while before remembering this person.
Zhang Zhao, who was the admiral of Tianyue City at the beginning, has always been loyal to the prince. After the downfall of the prince Ning Yi, he was loyal to the Zhu family. Since then, he has never changed his position. After the battle of Tianyue City, He also went to prison. Later, after Shen Lang defeated Emperor Dayan, all the prisoners of the Zhu family were released, and Zhang Zhao was also released and demoted to common people.
Zhu Hongxue said: "Our Tianyahai Pavilion was originally a martial arts force. It is indeed very difficult to form a national force, so Mr. Zhang Zhao was also called into the court by the teacher and became the deputy envoy of the Shangshutai."
Shen Lang said: "Who is the privy envoy
Zhu Hongxue said: "There is no one in charge, the teacher Zuo Ci will also be in charge."
Shen Lang said: "Then what about yourself?"
Zhu Hongxue said: "I have not served in the Privy Council."
Shen Lang understood what Zhu Hongxue meant. The imperial court in exile of the Dagan Empire was originally built on the basis of Tianya Haige. Zhu Rong was originally a prisoner, but now he entered the Shangshutai. In order to avoid suspicion, Zhu Hongxue will not enter the Privy Council , and he likes the feeling of fighting outside all the time.
Shen Lang said, "Then... where is Zhu Hongping and Zhu Ning?"
Shen Lang said: "Because you said a word to Zhu Hongzhu at that time, you didn't kill Zhu Hongping and Zhu Ning, but you didn't use them either. So the two didn't hold any official positions, Zhu Hongping served as a clerk, and Zhu Ning sorted out ancient materials and was in charge of the Literature Museum. "
Hundreds of people were still hovering over the city, just to let Shen Lang see the city clearly.
This city-state is really, really huge. The edge of the city has been reduced to ruins and sand dunes. The closer to the center of the city, the thicker the greenery.
But in the center of the city, it is completely lush, like a tropical garden.
Moreover, the architectural style of this city is completely different from the ancient Eastern Empire, and also different from the Lost Empire, but it is very similar to the Flame City on the Sea of Magma.
It is not gorgeous, but very magnificent, mysterious and simple.
Its history should be very long, even longer than the ancient Eastern Empire.
All the houses are built with huge stones without any wood, and the shape of the buildings is also very primitive, but they are extremely tall, ranging from tens to hundreds of meters high.
There are also these stone pillars, usually about three or four meters in diameter, a real jade pillar that supports the sky, and a few pillars can support the entire magnificent building.
In the center of the entire city-state is still a magnificent pyramid, like a mountain, almost occupying a small half of the entire city-state.
And the top of the pyramid is a statue, a very familiar statue.
It was the male man with a human face and a snake body that Shen Lang had seen in the ancient temple, full of fighting spirit.
However, this statue totem with a human face and a snake body is much larger, and more ferocious, holding a magic fork and glaring at the sky.
Shen Lang wondered why this totem appeared here
"We don't know what his name is, so we call it Wangtian." Princess Ning Han said: "He used to be the totem of the entire ancient Eastern Empire, and he was regarded as the ancestor."
Shen Lang has always been very strange about this. Why did the ancient empire enshrine this statue totem, and why would he be regarded as an ancestor
At that time, in the ancient ruins of King Kong Peak, Shen Lang was puzzled.
Medusa is a female with a human face and a snake body, and the ancestor totem in front of him is a male with a human face and a snake body, but not half of the humans in the ancient Eastern Empire have the characteristics of a human face and a snake body.
This point is very critical. Why do the ancestors worshiped by the Eastern Human Empire look so similar to the Medusa royal family
Princess Ning Han said: "Your Majesty, you are so smart, you must have an answer in your heart, right?"
Shen Lang couldn't help looking at Princess Ning Han again, looking at her face, and then at her waist.
As a human being, Princess Ning Han's figure is too demonic, too devilish, especially the curve of her waist, which is not human-like.
This new body of hers is indeed... amazing.
Obviously, Princess Ning Han knows a lot, because Queen Medusa revealed some key information to her.
Also, why is Queen Medusa's empire called the Lost Empire
This is the real name of their empire, not the name of later generations.
Under what circumstances will it be named the Lost Empire? It was once destroyed, but was reborn, but has been searching for the glory of the ancestors, so it is called the lost empire.
And why are there no males in the Medusa race? Without the combination of male and female, what should they rely on to reproduce
Shen Lang said: "The Medusa royal family of the Lost Empire has a longer history than the humans of the ancient Eastern Empire, right?"
Princess Ning Han said: "Yes."
Shen Lang said again: "Actually, the Great Nirvana has not only happened once in this world, but twice."
Princess Ning Han said: "That's right."
Yes, that makes sense.
When the sun is on the verge of death, there must be more than one dramatic counterattack before its death, but it will become more and more intense and serious.
Ninety years later, it made another counterattack before dying, and the result was that the entire planet was wiped out.
Shen Lang said: "The previous two great nirvana, human civilization was reborn, and the lost empire was also reborn. But... the human empire has been changing, but the lost empire has hardly changed, and has always maintained the most primitive state. To a certain extent, The human empire seems to be degenerating all the time."
Princess Ning Han said: "Yes, in order to adapt to the environment of the new world, the human beings on the land have been constantly changing, from the ancient human form with powerful force to the ordinary human form today. The Lost Empire has always maintained the beauty of the human face and the snake body. Dusha's form has always relied on strong force and spirit."
Shen Lang said: "That is to say, this Mojing is a more distant ancient ruin, earlier than the ancient Eastern Empire? Is it the city before the last Great Nirvana?"
"It should be, Your Majesty." Princess Ning Han said.
Shen Lang looked at this incomparably magnificent city-state, it looked so simple, and he couldn't imagine how far away it was.
When he was in Huoyan City, Shen Lang was still very strange. It was clearly the western world and the territory of the Lost Empire. Why did Huoyan City, a city that is clearly a human empire, survive
Shen Lang continued to look at the center of the city, the male totem statue with a human face and a snake body on top of the giant pyramid.
He felt immense power, especially his eyes, eyes looking up to the sky.
Shen Lang remembered the statue of Queen Medusa. She relied on those eyes to continuously transmit spiritual information from afar, regrouped the sea monsters in this world, and allowed some sea monsters to evolve and possess wisdom, allowing the lost empire to inherit go down.
So obviously, this sky-gazing totem may also have the same goal.
But obviously he was not that successful, at least his empire in the Great Desert has been completely destroyed and reduced to ruins.
Suddenly, countless mysteries appeared in Shen Lang's mind.
What is the relationship between this male race with a human face and a snake body and the royal family of Medusa
What is the relationship between them and ancient humans
Shen Lang said: "This sky-watching totem protects the entire Mojing, right?"
Princess Ning Han said: "Yes, it is precisely because of the protection of this sky-gazing totem that this last city-state survived in the desert. Not only does it have an oasis, it can resist the invasion of wind and sand, and the most important thing is that it can completely hide Arise, and no enemy will find the entrance."
The Medusa royal family has powerful spiritual power and can create all kinds of illusions.
The Lost Demon Mother has established the Lost Second Empire just by obtaining the mental power of Queen Medusa, and even after she died, she has ruled the ruins of the Lost Kingdom for countless years. Shen Lang has fully seen her ability to create illusions up.
And the powerful spiritual power released by the huge human-faced snake-body male totem in front of him folded the entire Mojing hide.
It is conceivable that once the Skywatching Totem runs out of energy.
Then... the entire Mojing will be directly exposed, and the army of the Jiangli Empire can easily discover it.
Not only that, once the energy of the Skywatching Totem is exhausted, the ecosystem here will be completely destroyed, and the entire city-state will be completely buried by wind and sand within a few years, and it will become exactly like other great deserts thousands of miles away.
Shen Lang closed his eyes again. Does this mean that this vast desert of 130 million square kilometers was also a powerful imperial civilization in ancient times
And the race that rules here is a race with a human face and a snake body, very similar to the lost empire? Just male
... ... ...
Shen Lang saw the palace, just south of the giant pyramid.
Moreover, this imperial palace was actually newly built, almost exactly the same as the Dagan Palace, almost a one-to-one copy, and it seemed so special in this ancient relic city-state.
At this time, the court meeting is going on, and there are really hundreds of civil and military officials.
And on the throne, there is really a statue of Shen Lang sitting.
It is so similar, whether it is the face, even the shape and temperament, they are exactly the same as Shen Lang before.
Moreover, this statue is not serious at all. Although it is wearing a dragon robe and a crown, it is very lazy, and its arms are still supported on its chin. There is a feeling of whether to listen or not.
It is so real, although it is a statue, it seems to be the same as a real person.
At this time, the civil and military officials in the court are really serious about discussing political affairs, and they are not bluffing, but discussing very professionally.
On the square outside the palace, heavily armed golden armored warriors stood densely.
Shen Lang had vaguely seen this scene before, it was in Futu Mountain Futu Palace, at that time the suzerain wanted to change Futu Mountain into a palace, and there were also special officials.
Tianyahai Pavilion seemed to avoid this, so it tried to fill the court hall in Mojing with officials from the former Yue Kingdom as much as possible, and tried not to let people from Tianyahai Pavilion serve as officials.
However, there is still a fundamental difference between this place and the former Futu Mountain.
When Suzerain Ren established the Futu Palace, the Daqian Empire was clearly alive, not only Qianjing, but also Futu City.
But at this time, Raging Tide City was gone, Qianjing, Tianyue City, Yanjing and other places all fell.
Then Mojing, as a pure land, has indeed become the orthodoxy of the Dagan Empire.
Just like in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, although the Manchu and Qing Dynasties had already occupied most of the area, wherever the Emperor Yongli was, there was Nanming’s orthodoxy and the imperial capital.
Although the Daqian Palace is far away from Shen Lang's field of vision at this time, his body is very strong, and he can see into the court hall with a single gaze.
All of a sudden, I saw a lot of familiar faces. I had seen them in the court hall of the Yue Kingdom. Most of them were officials from the Zhu family. But after the battle of Tianyue City, all the guilty officials from the Zhu family were killed. The officials of the Zhu Department had no private crimes, but were arrested and imprisoned because they stood in line.
And after Shen Lang defeated Emperor Dayan, all the officials of the Zhu family, who did not commit personal crimes, were all released, but there seemed to be no place for them in the Yue Kingdom.
When Zhu Hongxue took away Zhu Rong, Zhu Hongping, Zhu Ning and others, she also brought this group of people who had no place to stand here.
Unexpectedly... Now they have become the last courtiers loyal to Shen Lang and the Dagan Empire.
The creation of this world is too bizarre.
At that time, Shen Lang would never have imagined that the officials of the Zhu family would eventually become Shen Lang's last surviving loyal ministers.
Shen Lang couldn't help thinking of Zhu Hongzhu's kneeling before he died, and shouted like weeping blood: Long live my emperor, long live, long live.
He was not afraid of death, but of being rejected by Eastern orthodoxy.
He wished Hongzhu to be loyal to the Great Yan Empire, but after Shen Lang defeated Emperor Dayan, he replaced him as the orthodox orthodoxy, so Zhu Hongzhu would also be loyal to Shen Lang naturally. But he has no chance and no face, so he can only die.
But even if he died, Zhu Hongzhu was not willing to be expelled by Shen Lang from the class of eastern scholar-bureaucrats.
Therefore, after Zhu Hongzhu died, Shen Lang did not decree to deprive Zhu Hongzhu of his fame, but was willing to admit that he was a scholar-bureaucrat of the Eastern Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go to see your subjects?" Zhu Hongxue asked tremblingly, he had dreamed of this day for a long time.
Shen Lang discovered that the Pavilion Master Zuo Ci was not in the hall.
"The teacher went to look for you, and he never believed that you were dead." Princess Ning Han said, "Because you met with Emperor Dayan before going to Yanjing for a decisive battle, and had a secret conversation with him, and it was this secret conversation. It filled him with hope, and it also filled us with hope. So in the past ten years, he has searched for you all over the world, and he has searched almost every mysterious place in all areas outside the Dark Empire."
Zhu Hongxue continued to ask: "Your Majesty, are you going to meet your courtiers? Do you want to meet your hundreds of thousands of subjects?"
The court in Mojing is very solemn, not only all the officials have to kowtow and kneel down, even hundreds of thousands of people have to bow down outside the Dagan Palace.
Decades have been like a day, so the loyalty and fanaticism of these hundreds of thousands of survivors to Shen Lang has reached the extreme.
Zuo Ci used this sense of ritual to try his best to highlight Shen Lang's status, almost like a god.
At this time, the kneeling worship was over, but the court meeting was still going on, but outside the palace, hundreds of thousands of people were still unwilling to leave, but stood quietly in the square, as if they wanted to listen to the hadith.
This mythical Shen Lang's behavior should be incorrect most of the time, but in this desperate moment, it can unite people's hearts.
Shen Lang shook his head and said: "I will go to see them, but not now. I will go to see them after I regain my original face and figure, so as not to disappoint them."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhu Hongxue said, "Then when?"
He really can't wait.
Shen Lang thought for a while and said: "At least three days later, because there will be a big show in these three days, it will be very interesting."
Jiang Li's secret letter said that he sneaked into a pretender in Mojing. Within three days, if Shen Lang didn't expose him, Mo Jing would be in danger. (The three days mentioned here refer to the three days after Shen Lang entered Mojing)
This is the first game between Shen Lang and Jiang Li.
Moreover, it is Shen Lang's home court, if Jiang Li cannot be defeated tens of thousands of miles away, what hope is there for the next fight
"You take me to live in a secret place, I don't see anyone." Shen Lang said: "If nothing unexpected, before this evening, the big show will start.
Zhu Hongxue said: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Then, Zhu Hongxue and Ning Han took Shen Lang to a building on the west side of the Great Pyramid, where they settled down.
"Your Majesty, originally you were supposed to live in the palace, or in the central Great Pyramid." Zhu Hongxue said, "But you don't want to show up early, so you can't go to the Palace. Only teachers can open the Great Pyramid, so we can only let you Please forgive me, Your Majesty, for living here."
Shen Lang said: "No problem!"
After that, Shen Lang and Princess Shen Mi lived in this ancient building.
The female warrior under Princess Ning Han temporarily became a maid to take care of the lives of the two of them. Countless delicious food, countless clothes, and countless supplies were brought in like running water.
Marshal Zhu Hongxue became the gatekeeper, guarding the gate and not allowing anyone to enter or exit.
... ... ...
Inside the tall window, Shen Lang and Princess Ning Han stood side by side, looking at the scenery outside.
"This city is very primitive and unsophisticated. It is not as exquisite as the Eastern Empire and the Lost Empire, but it has another kind of thrilling beauty." Princess Ning Han said.
Shen Lang said: "They uphold a purer aesthetic point of view."
Princess Ning Han said: "Your Majesty, you said earlier that before this evening, there will be a big show about to start?"
Shen Lang said: "Yes, if nothing unexpected, it will be like this."
Ning Han said, "What if the performance fails?"
Shen Lang said: "The entire Mojing will be destroyed, and the last hope of mankind will be completely lost."
Princess Ning Han said: "Is this a game of struggle between you and Emperor Jiang?"
Shen Lang said: "Yes, and this is my home court, where he challenges me."
Princess Ning Han looked at the sun in the sky, it was after noon, but the sun was slightly slanted to the west.
The two waited quietly.
"When the sun sets, will it definitely happen?" Ning Han asked.
"Yes." Shen Lang said: "That person has always been full of ritual. I have gradually gotten to know him, and I will definitely start the big drama and start the game when the sun goes down."
The sun is gradually setting to the west.
In the thousands of miles of yellow sand, the sunset is especially beautiful.
It looked so big, so red, so beautiful.
Although it is a desert here, it is not covered by the Jiangli Empire, there are no hell crystals, no snow and ice, and no low temperature of tens of hundreds of degrees, so this place is still like a pure land for human beings, a land of light.
The sun had already begun to dip below the horizon.
However, the drama that Shen Lang was talking about was still not staged.
The entire Mojing still hasn't changed in any way.
The atmosphere seemed a little tense.
As if to buffer the tense atmosphere, Princess Ning Han suddenly said: "Your Majesty, you must be mentally prepared. When my teacher returns, I will propose to you for me."
Shen Lang couldn't help being startled
Proposal? Maintain the previous engagement
Maintain the marriage contract between Jiang Li and Ning Yuanxian? Let Shen Lang marry Ning Han
However, Jiang Li has already become the destroyer of the world, is it necessary to continue this engagement
In this critical stage of the world, who cares about such a trivial matter as the love of children
Princess Ning Han said: "This marriage contract is not just made by father Wang Ning Yuanxian and Jiang Li, it may even involve a deeper marriage."
And at this moment!
In the sunset on the horizon, two black shadows appeared!
Shen Lang said: "Here we come, the shocking drama is about to start."
The first game between Shen Lang and Jiang Li is about to officially start, and he is full of excitement, even full of confidence to win.
...
Note: I have something to eat, and then continue to code words, the next chapter will be updated after twelve o'clock! It's really hard to write, give me a few monthly tickets, give me some fuel, kowtow thanks!
