Chapter 1357: Policy, Thutmose, Mission, Honorary Sage
A few days later again.
The group continued to head north and saw the lush green Dama Mountain.
boom!
Jade fell to the ground.
The Water Purifying Yaksha in the sand pulled Jade up.
While on the road, all of them were also amending laws, fighting, learning from each other, and making progress together.
Two powerful Yakshas from Liyue and the occasional golden-armored warriors personally taught the Yakshas and Arhats how to fight.
Jade looked at the skin on her body that was cut by the blade but had no wounds.
"So this is the blessing of the 'non-transformer'?"
Those who are blessed after passing the training in the Mausoleum of the Red King have bodies that are tougher than ordinary people, can ignore ordinary swords, and are resistant to elemental forces.
The Qi seeds that Jiang Yi bestowed on the monks also have elemental resistance, and this generation of Qi seeds also has extremely strong elemental fusion properties.
Super element adaptability and element resistance are never in conflict.
"Moo!"
"Roar!"
There were bulls and elephants walking slowly in the center of the team.
There are lions and griffins guarding on both sides.
These are the oasis creatures subdued by the monks. They were once the followers of the Red King who perished in the sea of sand, and now they are Jiang Yi’s followers.
There are eagles in the sky, jackals in the distance, owls sleeping on the trees, mice digging holes in the ground...
The oasis created by Jiang Yi is a complete ecosystem, with everything from predators to decomposers.
In the ecological system, the law of the jungle in order to survive and fill their stomachs is a natural law that Jiang Yi does not interfere with.
Therefore, the adventurers who rushed into the oasis in a hurry, thinking that there would be no danger in this blessed land, are now in tears, feeling that they will become the excrement of wild beasts.
"As a follower of the flower goddess, I thought I had chosen an ideal king who could bring a better future to this land. I once loved him madly, but when I was betrayed like this... only three times the destruction can calm my grief." Lilupal looked at Paimon, who finally dared to talk to her, and said that she would never regret the punishment she had given him.
Although Lilupal's language was very scary, Paimon also vaguely understood the town spirit's intelligence and way of doing things during their interactions.
I know that Zhenling is not a race that curses people for no reason.
"So what do you think of the current desert policy?" Paimon was discussing a topic that was "high-sounding" to her with Lilupal.
These days, Jiang Yi also made a decision.
The desert oasis is too vast. If it were divided into "seven regions" in ancient times, it could be better managed.
Seven colleges were built in seven regions, forming seven schools, which were directly connected to the system of the Institute of the Church.
Managers should focus on academic and applied technology to benefit the people, rather than power.
It will take three decades to complete the transformation of desert people’s thinking and train a new generation of desert scholars as true managers.
Clear the roads, build tracks, and build energy trains with energy technology as the core, spanning the north-south and east-west borders of the desert and rainforest until it connects with Liyue's Floating Life Train plan.
In the future, public security will be maintained by mechas, energy agencies, discipline officers, and security officers.
Political affairs are handed over to the "Seven Regions Conference".
The economy is left to agriculture, tourism, high-tech industries...
These detailed proposals were jointly established by Jiang Yi, the Great Compassion Tree King and Nashida.
Monsters that obstruct the train will be swept away.
Apep and his descendants shall make a covenant with them.
Jiang Yi allowed Apepu and Apepu's descendants to become the guardians of the Oasis Desert and protect nature.
How people get along with nature is the first lesson Jiang Yi wants to teach the desert people.
Lilupal looked at Jiang Yi carefully. Jiang Yi would not allow any town spirit to engage in politics. The town spirit returned to the status of God's messenger, only enjoying the right to live in the garden and the responsibility of guiding humans to goodness according to the law, granting oases, and calming sandstorms.
"Any living being on earth has the right to comment on policies." Jiang Yi said to Lilupal, "You can speak freely like the people of Liyue in the jade slip."
“In the future, this network will also connect to the entire desert oasis.”
"My only warning is that you can't curse someone just because they said something rude in the jade slip." He warned again in advance, "The Internet also has its own laws."
The formless Zhen Ling is actually very suitable for surfing the Internet and becoming an Internet resident.
It’s just that Zhen Ling’s personality is not suitable for being a network maintainer.
"Haha, master, I can scold them without any regrets using human language. There is no need to use any curses." Lilupal was very confident about this.
Jiang Yi hopes so.
After all, that’s what Hu Tao said at the beginning. Later, his mouth was no match for the Internet army, so he directly released a ghost video to provoke these people to watch it. Then, in the middle of the night, he called "Youyou" to come out of someone else's jade slip and come for "ghost revenge."
Everyone turned pale in front of the Qianyan Army and swore that they were just scared by the ghost video that was too realistic.
Hu Tao explained about the "ghosts" and said that it was an illusion, the latest real projection technology. There are no ghosts in the world, so everyone should not have any wild imaginations.
Youyou agreed very much.
With Jiang Yi's permission, Lilupal said, "In the history of the desert, as long as God exists, everything is prosperous. When God leaves, the oasis will not be buried by the sandstorm soon, but the scattered states, the towers on the sand, and the dream paradise will all burst like bubbles."
"More illusory than a mirage on a sea of sand."
"Ahmar and the Mistress of Flowers hope that mortals can become stronger... one day they will no longer need to rely on the existence of gods and maintain the paradise they desire."
"The lady of flowers told the prophecy to the God King..."
"What she worries about is not the foreseeable disaster, but the darkness of chaos... Only the deep black malice and the threat of 'death' can crush the buds."
"Mortals will experience disasters, but they will survive like fire."
"Great, you have eliminated the threat of death, so I think everything in the future will be good."
Jiang Yi neither nodded nor shook his head.
He also knew the flower goddess's prophecy.
The Flower Goddess told the Great Compassionate Tree King much more than she told the Red King.
It has a similar meaning to the fire in Lilupal's words.
"When we are gone, mortals will wander like infants, fragile but strong enough to overcome the winds, fires and their own imperfections."
The desert has lost its civilization, but the desert people either returned to the rainforest, or became the Gilded Brigade, or reorganized their tribes, and ultimately survived in this world.
And the golden dreamland fantasized by the Red King and the Desert People.
“In the new world, all is good.”
It is the common expectation of gods and humans.
"Master, you are a miracle of human achievement. I have seen your guidance of mankind, but you teach mankind to be self-reliant just like the Red King." Lilupal said, "You are the one who holds the holy way. You do not regard mankind as lambs to be enslaved, but rather as a rule and theorem of slavery."
"You share wisdom and the future equally with all spirits."
In fact, she really hoped that the person she met at that time would be a human being like her new master, rather than a greedy, hypocritical, and mediocre tyrant.
That way, I wouldn't have to experience the frustration and rage of being betrayed.
Jiang Yi's mouth twitched.
Zhen Ling places her love on her lover, and is always accompanied by a hungry desire - the desire for dreams, the desire for a home, and the desire for the person she loves to transcend the mundane dream.
It is the same even when facing the gods you are loyal to.
If the Red King had not died, and if Zhenling had not been unable to defeat the Red King, Feligis, who discovered that the Flower Mistress could not be resurrected, would probably have made a curse similar to that of Lilupal.
"Your praise... puts pressure on me, so I'd better not give it next time." Jiang Yi calmly withdrew his gaze. Zhen Ling was so well-behaved because she was waiting for him to resurrect the Flower God.
"Huh?" Lilupal was stunned.
Compared to a god, the master is indeed more like an interesting human being.
Paimon found himself being left out after opening the topic.
"Pfft!" Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Lilupal seemed to be not quite used to getting along with Jiang Yi.
The mother of the town spirits who destroyed the city of Gul also had her moments of failure. Really... Ugh! It made people wary of the other party's deceptive nature. If she were to regain her human form, she would be a terrifying existence that would fascinate everything.
"Thutmose..." On the other side, Gabriel paused and looked at the distinctive gold-plated brigade logo that appeared on the tree trunks and rocks at intervals along the way.
Memories of the past came flooding back.
Look up and look ahead.
They soon entered the sphere of influence of the Tanit tribe, and the tribe's scouts and falcons had probably discovered them.
"The Tanit tribe is one of the oldest tribes in the Red King Desert. It is a matriarchal clan that believes in the flower god and is a nomadic clan."
"The leader now is Babel."
"Like the matriarchs of the Wusa, Xinti and other tribes, they all claim to be the daughters of the flower god."
"Based on faith and bound by blood, we rely on the imaginary Patisalan Garden... and pursue the 'eternal oasis'."
Jiang Yi had a list he had written in his hand, which was a list of all the tribes in the desert.
He walked in the desert himself, measuring the longitude and latitude with his footsteps, leaving behind footprints of destiny.
In addition to selecting Arhats and Yakshas, the task is to inspect the character of these tribes, record their merits and sins, and decide on future policies towards each tribe.
They knew exactly which tribes the desert track would pass through and which tribes it would bring prosperity to.
As a god who doesn't work, Jiang Yi was quite attentive this time.
After all, with such a large area of habitable land suddenly added, the Ministry of Education has been extremely busy, and he has to share some of the work pressure with Nashida.
Once things are on track, Nashida will probably not have to start handling government affairs before dawn.
"Who are you..." The guards of the Tanit tribe looked vigilantly at the overly large team in front of them. This team was enough to start a war against the tribe.
"..."Ying looked at the familiar guard and remembered that the people in the desert had forgotten the disastrous past. Not only this guard, but also Madam Babel probably didn't recognize her and Paimon.
These guards had mortal eyes and no talent, so naturally they could not recognize that Jiang Yi in front of them was the great being who created the oasis.
"We are an envoy ordered by the God of Man and the Council of the Church to investigate the desert tribes and conduct a census." Jiang Yi made up an identity at random. "The environment of the desert oasis and the peace between people need to be maintained by everyone. Go tell your mistress... prepare a list of tribal members."
He was not discussing, but informing.
Fear of power but not of virtue is a characteristic of many wandering clans.
Even if their attitude is bad, most tribes will give face when they hear the name of the God of Man and hand over real or false population data.
And Jiang Yi accepted it as usual.
Nor did he expose the tribe's little tricks in person.
I just corrected the wrong data on the way out.
Yandora took out the documents proving their identities and handed them to the guard in front of her for review.
The guards naturally had no way of judging whether it was true or false.
