Chapter 479: The King

Following the two girls, Ling Ping’an patted the team and walked in through the gate of the ancestral hall.
As soon as he entered, the first thing he saw were twelve huge stone pillars.
He knew that these stone pillars symbolized the twelve years that the ancestral hall had spent in order to pacify the world.
On the stone pillars were carved vivid soldiers.
Although their clothes were tattered, they were all armed.
The Great Xia uprising army had changed from raiders to kings.
There was no Taizu on these stone pillars.
However, looking at those soldiers, one could feel that Taizu Emperor was among them!
Crossing the group of stone pillars, the work of the famous Northern Zhou sculptor Yin Yuma appeared in front of them.
On the huge stone statue, the Xuan Bird that was spiraling around landed on the body of a huge meandering dragon.
As their wings slowly drooped down, the huge dragon turned around and stuck out its tongue. It allowed the dragon blood on its tongue to flow onto the Xuan Bird’s body that was riddled with holes. It healed the Xuan Bird’s injuries and soothed the Xuan Bird’s suffering.
Without a doubt, this work expressed the feelings of the people of the Shang dynasty. It conveyed the spirit that the descendants of the Xuan Bird would reunite with the descendants of the dragon three thousand years later. The brothers reunited as one family, fighting with one heart and one vigor.
Walking under the statue, they entered a flight of stairs that extended upwards.
There were a total of 63 steps, which symbolized the 63 things that Taizu had done in his life.
On the relief sculptures on the two sides of the steps, there were corresponding to those 63 things.
Walking forward and backward, one could notice a poem carved on the stone wall.
That Taizu Emperor, Ke Fu, did not care about the dissuasion left and right. He decided to immediately send his troops to the northern expedition, and wrote the poem.
“The wind and rain on Mount Zhong turned gray and yellow. A million strong troops crossed the great river. The tiger crouched in the dragon’s Den; the past triumphed over the present; the world turned upside down and was generous. It is better to chase after the bandits, not to be known as the King of learning. If the heavens have love, the heavens will age, the righteous path of the Human World is vicissitudes of Life!” Ling Ping’an recited the poem, he felt the aura of the emperor blow against his face.
Six months after writing this poem, the Great Xia Emperor’s troops returned to the north and made a funeral for the last emperor of the previous dynasty. They abandoned the posthumous state of the fake dynasty and changed their religion to ‘Emperor Huai’.
Naturally, he did not give any face to the stupid emperor who had buried the world.
“The great ancestor is a true hero!” Ling Ping’an nodded and sighed.
However, for some reason, he had a vague idea in his heart, as if he wanted to say goodbye to the momentum of this poem.
Hence, he raised his head, and his eyes slowly shone.
“You are a hero...”
“I am also a hero!” he whispered.
Then he laughed, “You are a fool again!”
But he would not know that the moment he said those two words, the clouds above the imperial capital suddenly stirred.
In the midst of the wind and clouds, a tall figure wearing a crown and a black dragon robe with golden threads on the bottom appeared in the clouds.
Between his every move, there were rays of light.
Between the pearls, the Sun, the moon, the mountains, and the rivers flowed.
He slowly lowered his head and looked at the city below him.
Between the pearls, his eyes were slightly filled with admiration.
Countless pedestrians in the imperial capital raised their heads and exclaimed, “Look! Great-grandfather has appeared!”
People exclaimed.
But the clouds above had already returned to their original state.
People could not help but sigh and say to the people around them, “You don’t know! Just now, great-grandfather’s figure was projected from the clouds... Tsk Tsk tsk... that domineering, simply too!”
“I almost knelt down and kowtowed to great-grandfather!”
...
Blackguard’s underground command center.
Suddenly, red lights lit up one by one.
The central supercomputer issued a sharp warning.
“Warning! Warning!”
“Psionic power at the immortal level has appeared...”
“Psionic power at the immortal level has appeared...”
“Measuring...”
“Psionic power density...”
“Lack of data! Lack of data! Unable to estimate!”
The workers raised their heads and saw the three-dimensional image of the satellite and radar data reconstructed by the computer.
The clouds above the imperial city.
A gigantic figure that blotted out the sky suddenly appeared.
It stirred up the wind and clouds.
The psionic power of the entire world was sobbing.
People swallowed their saliva and looked at the figure that appeared from the clouds.
He was like a giant that was reflected in the sky above the imperial capital.
From the scans of the psionic power warning satellites and the psionic power warning radar, his true form began to be estimated.
It was different from what the passers-by saw.
In the satellites and radar, his true form was a terrifying giant that was the size of the moon floating in outer space.
Now, it was just his projection, projected from space to the clouds.
Everyone gulped.
“Who is he?”
The satellite gave the final three-dimensional scan.
It was not a person, but a huge mechanical body made of some kind of metal.
But he was wearing the crowns of ancient emperors.
These crowns looked like cloth, but after scanning, it was discovered that they were made of some unknown transcendent being metal.
The beads that hung down were actually jade beads that had been polished without a single flaw.
Each of these jade beads was like a huge mountain.
Zhang Hui looked at the final image of the satellite.
He swallowed his saliva.
“The one in Mount Li!”
There was no doubt!
This was the one in Mount Li!
Commander-in-chief had once gone deep into Mount Li and seen the murals carved in the underground palace of Mount Li.
In the murals, there was such a huge bronze golem, walking in the universe and sweeping across the scenes of the worlds.
Ancestral Dragon!
The inscriptions in the murals called the huge bronze golem that blotted out the sky.
But how did he come out?
And why did he come out?
What did he want to do?
The next second...
All the alarms stopped.
The electronic voice in the supercomputer sounded, “Psionic power reaction detected has disappeared!”
“The alarm has been lifted!”
Everyone took a deep breath.
Even Zhang Hui felt that his clothes were drenched in sweat.
He could feel it firsthand in front of such a terrifying existence.
Everything that humans had now, everything that the Blackguard had.
They were all sand castles built on the beach.
A single wave would cause all of them to collapse.
“This is what an immortal God is like!” Looking at the display screen, Zhang Hui sighed as she looked at the huge golden figure that had just appeared and disappeared after being reconstructed by the supercomputer.
Yes!
This was the power that a true immortal God should have.
An Immortal God was not an existence that would be restricted by everything in the secular world.
In ancient times, it was said that one would jump out of the three realms and not be in the five elements!
Everything in the material world could not explain such an existence.
Compared to such an existence.
The so-called gods that had awakened on earth were roughly equivalent to embryos.
Embryos that were still developing.
However, Zhang Hui was not defeated by this unimaginable existence.
He looked at the screen, the huge golden humanoid that had been reconstructed in three dimensions.
“One day...”
“Among us, or among our descendants...”
“Such an existence will appear!”
Zhang Hui was absolutely certain of this!
Because this was the backbone of a nation, the backbone of a foolish old man who moved mountains, and the backbone of an elite guard who filled the seas!
.....
Land of Qin, Vienna, the underground command center of the Holy Roman Empire.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Countless instruments emitted a sharp beeping sound.
Amidst the mechanical calls in Fran, countless workers raised their heads and saw the data transmitted by Shenluo’s long-range psionic power early-warning satellite.
“Alert!”
“Alert!”
“Psionic power reaction has appeared!”
The people gulped as they looked at the data transmitted back and the image reconstructed by the central computer.
The giant golden man that was the size of the Moon wore a crown on his head and a black robe on his back. His feet were stepping on the vast deep space.
As he looked down at the entire earth, beads dropped down one by one.
Each bead was as huge as a mountain range.
The surface of his body was bronze-colored and metallic. Ye was shining brightly.
“It’s the East!”
The general on duty looked at the screen and took a deep breath.
One could tell at a glance just by looking at the gold man’s clothes.
This obvious oriental style crown, like a brand, had an indisputable degree of recognition.
But...
“Who is he?”
Such a huge and powerful super-god level bronze golem.
He must have a background.
After this thought, an extremely terrifying thought followed.
“What does he want to Do?”
Such a terrifying and powerful immortal God could not appear for no reason.
They all appeared with a purpose.
That was the intuition of the people of land of Qin.
In their mythical grade, if a God appeared, there would only be one more possibility: the judgment of the end of the world!
The good went to heaven, the sinners went to hell.
And everyone was guilty.
Therefore, they had to worship the god devoutly in order to obtain salvation.
With this analogy, the people of land of Qin would naturally subconsciously associate it with destruction and judgment.
However, the general’s thoughts were far more complicated.
All the alarms lit up with a green light.
“The alarm has been lifted!”
“Psionic power has been detected to have disappeared!”
The general stood up, the hat on his head falling to the ground.
His golden hair stood up.
All of a sudden, a gigantic god, a bronze golem that was suspected to be at the level of a main god, suddenly appeared and then suddenly disappeared.
This made him unable to understand.
It was precisely because he was unable to understand that boundless terror assaulted his heart.
The appearance of a God definitely had a purpose.
Especially such a terrifying main god level god.
So, what did he do? What happened in the East?
These things were simply unimaginable. Just thinking about it made his hair stand on end.
...
The Church of bones.
In the holy hymn chant, the golden wings of the King of angels lingered between each bone in the holy church.
The souls in the bones became excited.
The devout believers of the Lord praised the messenger who had descended to the human world, the angel who guarded the Earth.
The King of Angels suddenly withdrew all his wings.
He raised his head and looked up. His golden eyes pierced through the dome of the white bone church and looked into the deep sky.
He saw an incomparably majestic bronze golem standing in the galaxy with its feet stepping on the vacuum.
The Holy Light under the Holy Helmet of the King of Angels began to boil.
“Who is it?” He felt the enormous pressure of the other party.
It was the pressure of a conqueror.
The pressure of an emperor who had conquered countless worlds.
More importantly...
The King of Angels understood that this terrifying golden man that had suddenly appeared in the deep space.
Probably had divine power that was not inferior to his lord and father!
This meant that he came from another dimension.
...
In the Dragon Tiger Mountain, the old Celestial Master raised his head slightly trembling and looked at the blue sky and white clouds in the sky.
“Great-grandfather... Great-grandfather...” a pretty girl asked, “What are you looking at?”
The old celestial master smiled and touched his great-granddaughter’s cute face. “Confucius said, ‘if the Phoenix doesn’t come, and the river doesn’t come out, I’m already married!'”
“Great-grandfather’s life is better than Confucius’s!”
“The aura of a king is vast and mighty...”
“It seems that grandfather can still wait for the Phoenix Cry Imperial capital and the map of Heluo to appear!”
To the old celestial master, this was probably his last hope for the rest of his life.
As an old man who was born in a traditional era but lived to this day, he had witnessed the glorious era.
The little girl did not understand, but when she saw great-grandfather’s old face that was as old as an old tree, it became incomparably brilliant.
She clapped her hands happily and was extremely happy.
...
Ling Ping’an followed the crowd of visitors and entered the inner hall of the Great-grandfather Memorial Hall under the guidance of the two little girls.
This inner hall was extremely huge, and it was at least 3,000 square meters in size.
In each of the glass cabinets, there were countless priceless cultural relics.
The manuscripts of the great-grandfather himself, the weapons used by the generals under him.
Of course, there were also the weapons of the Great Xia army from 300 years ago.
The Yihe Bronze Field Cannon, the Jianyi 2nd year flintlock, and the great general class cannon.
There were also bows, crossbows, and other weapons from the cold weapon era.
Of course, the most important thing was a broken battle flag that was carefully preserved in tempered glass above the hall.
On the war flag, eight words could still be seen clearly.
“Benevolent and Righteous Army, immediately hang the people and punish them!”
Ling Ping’an looked at it and couldn’t help but take out his phone to take a photo.
This was a treasure that could only be seen on the internet.
It was the flag of the great Xia Emperor’s army that had crossed the ocean to assist the Shang Dynasty brothers and brought it to the Northern Zhou continent.
Under this war flag was a well-preserved denunciation of the Qin dynasty written on a piece of paper.
There were already many people gathered in front of the denunciation.
Besides, there were even people reciting the contents of the denunciation.
“I have heard that kings uphold benevolence and righteousness, and the law of etiquette thrives...”
“Those who carry the sacks are tyrannical. They slaughter the innocent and devour the world. Eventually, the world will collapse, and the temples will be burned. They will be flogged to this day...”
“Those who carry the land of Qin have a human face and the heart of a beast. They are greedy and tyrannical, so they could harm the Yuan dynasty...”
“People of the Former Qin dynasty sailed on boats, and in the north, they entered the land of yin and Shang dynasty. The cold wind blew on their bodies, and hunger trapped them...”
“Merchants used benevolence and righteousness, and taught them how to farm the land instead of food...”
“However, once they had established themselves, they turned against each other with knives and axes on their bodies...”
“Ever since the uprising army of mine swept away the evil and obstinate, and took over the world, I have written letters to inform them, and advised them with benevolence and righteousness...”
“However, they are still obstinate and unrepentant. They are still as tyrannical as ever...”
“Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty said, ‘is it because a single piece of clothing and a single piece of water is not enough to save them?'”
“Today, under the power of the heavens, I have turned the universe upside down...”
“Mengchong is listed in the harbor. It is uncountable. The sails sail across the sea and cover the sky and cover the Sun!”
“On the same day, I will send troops to cross the ocean, carry out justice on behalf of the heavens, and hang people to punish them for their crimes!”
“From Liangzhou to Yangzhou, from Mobei to the Great River, and from Taihang to Yanji...”
“A benevolent and righteous person should know what I mean: as the king of the world and the son of ten thousand people, I can send an army to crusade against the remnant people of the Shang dynasty from ten thousand miles away...”
“And if you have something to do, can I and my descendants sit still?”
“This Confucius said: the one who started it has no descendants? !”
“This is also what I call filial piety!”
This denunciation was something that even middle school students could recite, so naturally, no one was unfamiliar with it.
However, on such an occasion, people still couldn’t help but recite it.
Ling Ping’an also stopped and listened, sighing with emotion.
“No Wonder Emperor Wu of Han said that extraordinary people should make extraordinary contributions...”he thought.
At this moment, a few young people walked past him.
When he heard them discussing, he asked, “Did you know?”
“Just now, ten minutes ago... great grandfather appeared!”
“Many people saw great grandfather’s figure in the clouds above the imperial city...”
After that, Ling Ping’an curled his lips and shook his head lightly, “The royalist party is really annoying!”
Ever since the Gaozong dynasty, the country had entered the era of constitutionalism. With the exploration and exploration of the three dynasties of great grandfather, Taizong, and Gaozong, a brand new system was established, and it was continuously reformed.
Thus, it established the system that everyone was used to today.
The interpretation of judicial power was in the Supreme Court; the power of governance was in the cabinet; the power of supervision was in the Council of Ministers and ministers. These three powers were entrusted to the Gonghe Party and the Datong Party by the emperor.
These parties were elected by the people through general elections.
The people of land of Qin had evaluated this system: The fusion of the classical elite republic and the modern idea of the common people.
Unfortunately, within the country, there had always been a strength that wanted to return to the era of Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong.
Even if the emperor didn’t want to, they still wanted to.
That was why all kinds of things were created.
Auspicious things were going to be invented every now and then.
It could only be said that they were bored to death!
