【238】Give it a go

Zhou Li'an said: "The world is just deceived by falsehood, but it is not a betrayal of balance!"

"As for the army of judgment ending at the Tower Cave..."

"If we don't go, won't they come?"

The snow girl pondered, thoughtfully: "Master, you mean, the prince's delegation? But they are for 'negotiation and peace', but in fact they are allowing the falsehood to continue to spread!"

Zhou Li'an asked again: "Then if you were in Kema City now, what would you do?"

Um?

The snow girl was stunned. She suddenly realized that she had been looking at these things from the perspective of a spectator.

And the army of judgment is not a decoration.

Bullshit, Zhou Weiguo is the leader of the army. Seeing the arrival of the prince's delegation and hearing the words of "seeking peace", he will definitely take measures.

She stepped into it, thought for a long time, and said: "With the character of the presiding judge, if he is angry, he may make them go without return!"

Zhou Li'an smiled and nodded: "Shanshan and other battle group leaders are indeed like this, so I made Niu Shi as the deputy chief judge, and Zhou Weiguo and Queztitko as the chief and deputy inspectors!"

Snow Girl continued: "I don't know Quiztitko's character, but Niu Shit and Wei Guo should not act recklessly!"

"But if you just reprimand and warn them, it will be difficult to wake them up from their confusion!"

"Maybe someone in the mission will wake up and surrender to the balance, but only two or three people can't control the situation!"

"Even if the great prince surrenders to the Balance, once he shows his different will after returning to the Kingdom of Tepanix, he should be imprisoned by the old king!"

After saying these words, the snow girl became confused again: "Master, I don't know how to break the situation."

Zhou Li'an said: "Keep thinking, we have already sown the seeds of balance in the city-state alliance!"

In fact, Zhou Li'an also pays attention to Qiboche, Poliboma and others.

The "fire bearer" they designated for Quiztitco is also considered an extremely rare balanced fire in various city-states.

However, Zhou Li'an didn't think they could make any splash.

The significance of the Fire Bearer lies in the formation of the Kinkou sect, which is different from ordinary Kinkou people.

They are more fanatical about their faith.

If you want to set foot on the old continent in the future, the fire bearer can be a role like an ascetic monk, training in Eurasia.

This requires the development of a certain scale and some special training from Zhou Li'an.

But now, the existence of "Fire Bearer" is just the germination of new consciousness, and its actual meaning and use are almost zero.

Therefore, Zhou Li'an has not yet told Xue Nu about the existence of the "Fire Bearer".

Even if that day came in Kema City and she was asked to give instructions mentioning the "fire bearer", Zhou Li'an did not explain much.

Therefore, the prompt of "Balanced Fire" now has nothing to do with the fire transmitter.

However, the snow girl knows that since I have an idea, the answer is not hidden deeply.

She frowned and thought.

Zhou Li'an didn't bother, waved his hand and created the "Ocean Monsoon Map" to study.

In the next month, he will provide Zhou Yusheng with relevant knowledge. Of course, he cannot show his timidity when meeting Zheng He. Instead, he must put on a strong display of cowardice.

In addition, Zhou Li'an has not yet made up his mind whether to send a "magic envoy" to visit the Ming Dynasty.

If you really want to send people to move there, learn the "Ocean Monsoon Chart" in advance, which can be used as practical evidence and repaired and replaced.

After 600 years, the monsoons and ocean currents have changed to varying degrees. The global greenhouse effect that is a commonplace in later generations is no joke.

The advancement of global industry will inevitably affect ecology.

About two hours later.

Only then did the Snow Girl come back to her senses, her face bursting with sudden joy: "Master, I understand, it's that..."



Southern Valley.

It has been in lockdown for 8 days.

Not only the Kingdom of Tepanix, but all the cities in the valley listened to the order given by Tezozomok, calling on the people and the altar to worship the true God of Balance and beg for her mercy and forgiveness.

at the same time.

Outside each city, people who had stayed in Tadong and returned were constantly arriving.

Seeing that the city gate was locked and heavily guarded, they also felt nervous and frightened.

Because everyone knew in their hearts that their intention to take their families and relatives to the Balance was a betrayal of the monarch of the city-state.

However, the guard didn't look evil at all, but someone asked them about what they saw in Tapong City, recorded it, and asked about his street, where his door was, and who he was looking for.

Finally, two options are given -

Once you enter the city, you are not allowed to leave again.

Because they have bathed in the glory of the balanced true God, they should enter the sacrificial temple and perform praises and prayers every day until the true God forgives all peoples.

If you don't enter the city, you can wait outside the city. Someone will look for their family members and inquire about them. If they want to move, they will meet them outside the city.

No one knew the deeper meaning.

But once he heard that he was not allowed to leave after entering the city, he never mentioned entering the city and waited outside the city.

Soon, someone met his family——

"Follow me to Kema City, which is the place where the glory of Balance is introduced!"

"In the future, we will go to the Kingdom of God and see the glory of the true God. We will no longer have to worry about poverty and poverty! Everyone will have food, clothing, and joy."

But there are also people who are not allowed to meet their families. They only hear a message from the sergeant: "Your father and your mother don't want to come!"

"Why?"

"They said they didn't want to leave their homeland!"

"Hutu, isn't that happy country better than the life they live now?"

The sergeant snorted coldly, his expression changing.

The man quickly changed his words: "Sir, please help me spread the word again. As long as they meet me and listen to the joy of balance, they will definitely leave with me."

The sergeant said: "A person only has one chance to send a message. Otherwise, hundreds or thousands of people come back every day. How can we take care of them?"

"Your family and relatives have heard of your message. If they change their minds, they can leave the city at any time! You can wait here, or turn around and go back!"

"If you want to enter the city, you must know that anyone who enters the city will not be allowed to leave again. This is the king's order from the Lord of the Valley, Zozomok! The kings of all city-states must abide by it!"

Azcapochalco, capital of Tepanix.

At dusk.

Bonfires were lit early on at the sacrificial platform in the city, and the flames would burn all night long.

Originally a landmark building of the most powerful country in the valley, it was talked about by merchants and residents alike.

But now, the city has been closed for several days, but it has become a boring place for the people.

Just because the people in the city need to go and kneel down every day so that they can make a living.

If you just kneel down and praise, it only takes a moment, but the whole city has no choice but to gather together, so there is a long queue, and the waiting process is annoying.

However, in order to pray for salvation, people still go there spontaneously.

However, people's minds are impetuous and they are increasingly resistant to the so-called "balance".

Even at this time, the noise of crowds gathering under the sacrificial platform could still be vaguely heard from various places in the city.

Fang urban area.

Poliboma and Oyer return from the front and back.

The servants had already prepared the meal, and when the three of them were seated, the others left on their own initiative.

The servants who stayed in the house were all close associates of Poliboma, but they were not worried that Tsiboche's existence would be leaked.

Besides, they didn't know Qiboche's former identity.

They are only treated as distinguished guests of the master, and Qi Boqie treats these slaves very kindly.

Firstly, because of their status as slaves, and secondly, because of his desire for balance, when their plan succeeds, he will also take these slaves to Kema and submit to my master, Balance.

During the dinner, none of the three people spoke in a hurry.

Polibomar and Oyer have been inquiring about information these days, using treasures and money to bribe the nobles' servants, guards, housekeepers, and even some seemingly unimportant and low-level officials.

After running around for a day, the two of them were a little exhausted, so they both wolfed down the food.

Qi Boche couldn't bear to interrupt.

It wasn't until the two of them picked up the wine glasses one after another that Ciboche raised them together. After drinking a glass of tequila liqueur, he asked: "Polipoma, is there any news?"

Poliboma smiled: "Basically got it!"

Qiboche sat upright excitedly and listened to Poliboma say: "Every city-state is raising treasures. Even the treasure room of the second prince was said to have been opened, and a rare gold-cast sun wheel was taken out. It is said that the treasure room was opened.

It's what their ancestors, the Teotihuacans, left behind."

"Five days later, when the tributes from various countries arrive, the mission will set off."

"In addition, in the palace, there is a rumor among the nobles that if the eldest prince returns after suing for peace, the old king will pass the throne to him!"

After hearing this, Oyer exclaimed: "The eldest prince is already sixty years old and has long been disfavored by others, but now he has regained the possibility of inheriting the throne?"

Polypoma smiled and said: "It's only possible, and it's extremely impossible!"

"Brother, what you said is wrong!" Oyer retorted, "You and I know the doctrine of balance, and we know that it will return in vain, but how do nobles know the result?"

"I'm afraid the second prince and the third prince have been having sleepless nights these days, right?"

On the side, Qi Boqie said: "Then you underestimate these two people!"

"What does this mean?"

"For them, the stability of the kingdom is the primary issue! If the power of the royal family is not there, there will be no throne."

"So what if the eldest prince takes the throne? The two of them are in charge of finances and military power respectively. When the time is right, they can seize the throne at any time."

"Besides, your eldest prince is already old, how long can you live? The old king's longevity is unusual!"

"Now that their brother has stabilized the kingdom for them, they are too late to be happy. Why can't they sleep?"

"On the contrary...if the eldest prince returns without success, the two of them will not have to worry about his threat."

Oyer was thoughtful.

Hear Polybomar say again: "As your Excellency had expected, the whole city is now hotly discussing the mission of the envoy. Even the praises at the sacrificial platform in the past two days have become much more pious and fanatical than before."

"All the people are looking forward to the result of seeking peace, but if the final result fails, the people will be even more panicked and resist balance."

As he said, this was all expected.

Although Qi Boche was angry, there was nothing he could do.

He shook his head slightly and said: "Let him use his machinations. If he is not redeemed, he will only leave a legacy for his descendants. By then, Kokuli will also turn its back on them!"

"As for departure in five days..."

Qiboche looked at Oyer, "Time is running out. If we can't use the mission to set off to implement the plan, it will be more difficult. How is it going on your side?"

Oyer chuckled: "Brother has already found out the news, how can I be weak?"

"I went around among several palace guards and got accurate information!"

"Children of the royal family also need to worship the true God every day and leave the palace!"

"I also bribed the attendants of the sacrificial temple. I can take over the business of supplying sacrificial objects in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, and I can freely enter and exit the sacrificial temple!"

"This supply is subject to an assessment. Only those who pass the assessment can we continue to supply!"

"And I know that the waiter has already colluded with the temple chief. The two often deceive merchants into participating in supply assessments by accepting goods. But in fact, no one has passed. The supply quotas are originally held by their family members!"

"Therefore... Sir, brother, this is the only opportunity. If you miss this time and try to bribe me again, it will inevitably arouse suspicion."

Hearing this, Qiboche and Poliboma looked at each other, both excited.

"Have you found out clearly about the sacrificial hall where Mendaya will go?"

"certainly!"

"Then we'll take action the next day! I want to meet that princess!" Qi Boche said excitedly.

And Poliboma had doubts: "Sir, you must think carefully. If you are exposed at this time, you will be in danger! We don't know what kind of character the princess is!"

"Time is too tight now, so we really can't find out the princess's information."

Qi Boqie said: "The princess can save Keya, at least her character is not bad. I want to rescue Keya and his father, brothers. Even if the princess doesn't want to help, at least she won't harm me!"

Oyer added: "My lord, I am not cursing you or singing the opposite tune; you know the character of those nobles better than I do."

"Maybe the princess only sees Keya as a plaything and can't bear to kill her before she loses interest!"

"Otherwise, how could the majestic princess, who is Tezozomok's favorite direct grandson, really fall in love with a slave?"

After these words came out, the table became dull again.

Oyer's depressing words are not unreasonable.

Who knows what happened to the princess and Keya? If they were just imprisoned for fun, it is not impossible!

But other than that, Qiboche had no better way.

Just be fearless and give it a try.

"This is my mission. If something unexpected happens, you two will escape from the city as planned!"

The words end here.

The three of them took a deep breath and looked serious——

"We will act the day after tomorrow. Tomorrow is the final preparation time!"

"I will go explore the secret passage out of the city again!"

"In addition, we still need to confirm the status of Lava and his son. If there has been an accident, we don't have to put ourselves in danger anymore."

The next day.

The two set out again early in the morning to inquire about news from all sides.

In the courtyard, Qi Boche was alone in the house, closing the door tightly, sometimes praising, sometimes telling something excitedly.

In fact, it was a speech technique prepared for him to practice.

He was used to seeing big nobles, but he didn't see the royal family.

When I recall Tugo's descriptions of the royal family, they were mostly cloudy and moody.

If there is no true god coming, they will be the most noble beings in the world, and all living beings will be nothing in their eyes.

Therefore, in addition to the worry of failure, there is also a little anxiety.

He could only recite the balance silently over and over again, so that the holy name of the true God would give him spiritual strength.

In the afternoon, the two returned, and the three of them conducted a complete simulation exercise of tomorrow's plan.

Another day, it was still dark.

The three of them, dressed in fine attire, set off with seven or eight servants carrying the tributes.

All the way to the high platform of the sacrificial temple.

The flame on the high platform had just extinguished, and from a distance, a long line of blue smoke appeared.

At this time, many people in the city had woken up and went to the temple one after another, trying to find a good place to worship the true God.

According to the plan, the three of them met with the attendant of the sacrificial temple. After inspecting the tributes, they followed the attendant up the dense and steep stairs.

The high platform of the sacrificial temple is about 35 meters long and is one of the largest buildings in the city.

Civilians have no right to climb this long staircase.

The people who walked with them and climbed up the stairs to the temple were all nobles from the city who were dressed in luxurious clothes, with gems embedded in their belts, and beautiful feathers on their hair.

“Brother, that woman has a big mansion above her head!

"Oyer interrupted and exclaimed as he was distracted.

Qiboche and Poliboma did not dare to look back. They only glanced at it from the corner of their eyes, and then whispered: "Why is there a big house above you?"

Oyer said: "Twenty-three feather coins, a total of 23, are inserted in her hair, all in seven colors!

It’s enough to buy a big house in the city. What’s this but a big house above your head?”

"..." The two of them were speechless.

After a while, I heard Qi Boche say: "Don't joke anymore! This long step is steep. The higher the height, the more dizzy I feel!"

At this time, everyone was halfway there, which was enough to overlook the entire city.

The waiter walking at the front was actually out of breath, "You can take a rest! But don't block the way of the distinguished guests. Go and sit on the side of the stairs!"

Only then could the group of people take a breather.

And from this high place, you can see all the people kneeling and worshiping at the foot of the tower, and the nobles on the steps, chatting and laughing, worshiping the temple.

Can't help but make a comparison——

"There's a mansion on someone's head..."

"If someone cuts off his own head, he may not be able to get a full meal for his family!"

"This is a sin, an unjust sin!"

Qiboche was whispering.

And the sound of wind hunting on the high platform of the stairs...

Only Polyboma and Oyer, who were on his left and right, heard this, and they had the same expression as him, seemingly hesitant, but also having a profound insight into the true knowledge——

"May the eternal fire of balance dispel all darkness!

"
