Chapter 1360: 3 Wishes, Past Events, God's Chessboard

early morning.

Barbie turns in her census list.

Jiang Yi took a glance, marked it, and handed it to Yandora.

This completely untrue list is really not worth looking at in detail.

Let them submit the list themselves. What he wanted to see was the attitudes of the various desert tribes towards the delegation, the god of man, and the god of grass.

It is also a test of whether future government decrees can be effectively implemented among desert tribes.

All I can say is... there is still a long way to go.

These loose-knit gilded brigades and unruly tribes had awe for the mission in their hearts, but it was far from enough to build a political system.

Yandora arranged the lists submitted by each tribe according to the marks above.

The mark records the number of people and identities reported by the tribe and the deviation between the actual number of people and identities in the tribe.

At that time, the smaller the deviation, the more policy support you will receive, the more resources you will obtain, and the more you will be able to move to the best oasis.

"The depths of the desert are ultimately lacking people like Candice and the chief of Aru Village who can be entrusted with important tasks." Jiang Yi felt a little regretful. He simply could not select enough qualified officials from these tribes to manage the seven regions of the desert.

We can't just use "void" to replace many officials and govern for a period of time to make a transition!

It is not impossible.

But are desert people willing to wear the "Void Terminal"?

Now that the goal was accomplished, everyone naturally prepared to leave the Tanit tribe.

When Babel heard the news, she was hesitant to speak.

After hesitating for a long time, I got the chance to talk to Lilupal and Feligis.

"Respected Lord Lilupal, yesterday's agreement." Her wish was naturally to become the manager of the desert, but today she flirted for a long time but did not get even a glance from the leader of the delegation.

This made her feel unsure. Could it be that Lilupal had not mentioned this to the God of Man and the leader of the delegation at all?

Otherwise, there should be some hints to reassure her.

Even just a compliment, she could use it to gain benefits from other tribes.

"I know, I know. I've already helped you with two of them. I'll help you with the last one soon..." Lilupal nodded perfunctorily, "Any other questions? If not, I'll leave!"

Feligis looked at the desert man with a half-smile. Of course, since she had no body, the expression she made was the same as Lilupal's, so no one else could see it.

This attitude made Babel even more uneasy.

What are the two things that need to be achieved?

"Don't waste our time." Feligis said unceremoniously, "The delegation is about to set off."

Babel didn't have time to question Lilupal. As she watched Feligis and Lilupal leaving, she hurriedly stated another purpose.

"Please wait for a moment, respected Lord Lilupal and Lady Feligis. The delegation is heading to Mount Dama... If you need to build a temple for the God of Man on Mount Dama, our Tanit tribe can provide manpower..."

"And Lady Feligis, the mistress of flowers that the Tanit tribe has worshipped for generations, can you get a chance to go to the Eternal Oasis and meet the mistress of flowers!"

The humiliation she felt after dancing yesterday made her forget the purpose she was about to talk about.

The three wishes she made were all for herself.

The mistress of the grass and trees once said, "There are only three things worth caring about for a person: spring water embracing moonlight, the green of life, and an ageless face..."

So her wish is to be blessed by Lilupal, become a manager, and remain young.

In this regard, Lilupal's interpretation is that you want me to protect your death from being disturbed, and to become the manager of the desert in your dream. Die early before you are too old, so that wrinkles will not appear on your face.

This is just like what Shireen said about having a "sweet" future.

Lilupal is very good at playing with words.

She dared to do so, which was certainly what Babel did, and her master was merciful enough to sentence her to death.

"No need. Your Majesty the God of Mankind does not need slaves to build the temple..." Feligis turned around, "And what I am guarding is the Eternal Oasis, and the Eternal Oasis is right here. The mistress of the flowers sleeping in the Eternal Oasis is naturally in... a world where she will not be disturbed."

"If you want to offer sacrifices, do it in the tribe!"

Babel watched Lilupal and Feligis leave, frowning as she pondered their words.

Lady Feligis meant that the Eternal Oasis was the desert oasis created by His Majesty the God of Mankind. She was no longer the guardian of the "Eternal Oasis" in Mount Dama, but the guardian of the entire desert oasis.

The mistress of the flowers...was she taken away by His Majesty the God of Man?

Is the "Eternal Oasis" in Mount Dama empty?

Could it be that the two wishes that were fulfilled were blessing and an ageless face...

She couldn't help but go back and look in the mirror.

I didn’t notice that I got younger, nor did I notice that I got older.

She could only hold onto her expensive cosmetics and frown secretly.

……

"Master... do you want to see Babel's dance? The kind with very little clothes!" Lilupal, who returned to the delegation, whispered in a flattering voice.

Everything in the original dream is the evolution of the master. Being able to evolve a god like Zeus naturally means that the master has a side that enjoys pleasure in his heart.

So, she took the risk.

As long as the master wants, she can give the master the memory of last night.

Lilupal doesn't have a mouth, so he naturally uses voice to transmit information.

"It's just bones." Jiang Yi responded calmly.

Lilupal couldn't figure out whether his master wanted to see it or not.

But I wasn't angry, and I didn't refuse.

"Eh? Are we just leaving like this?" Halfway through the journey, Paimon remembered something, "What about those children who were kidnapped by the Tanit tribe? We have to rescue them!"

Ying also looked at Jiang Yi.

Compared to the anxious and confused Paimeng, she believed that Jiang Yi had his own arrangements.

"This is not just a phenomenon of one tribe, but a phenomenon of most tribes in the desert. If we need to save them, then of course we need to save them all, but we are just using a different method."

"And you don't have to worry, Paimon. These children will not be harmed in any way."

Jiang Yi replied.

Saving them is of course easy, but what about the children whose mindsets have been influenced by various tribes?

In addition to saving a person’s body, you must also save his soul!

Otherwise, the rescue will be in vain.

"As for Babel's ambitions..." He glanced at Lilupal.

Lilupal replied: "The rootless tribes will continue the cycle of life and death forever with the shifting sand dunes. Those who have great ambitions will always disappear in the desert, without a sound, just like a few drops of bitter tears merging into the boundless ocean."

"Listen to it!"

"That's how they praise the great deeds of His Majesty the God of Man."

"It is like seeing the advent of the 'eternal oasis', which brings an infinite future, fertile fields, and new opportunities... Children in the future... do not need to beg for food in the rainforest city, do not need to learn the skills of killing, and do not need to rely on a strong man, and can live a dignified life..."

“Although a few paragraphs in it are incorrect.”

"But we will fulfill their dreams of having 'emerging opportunities' and 'living a life of dignity'."

"The salt desert of tears has not stopped the footsteps of mortals, and the eternal lie of the 'eternal oasis' has never stopped the tribes from exploring. And when the 'paradise' comes, the 'eternal oasis' that everyone sees belongs to all the desert people. It does not belong to a 'king'."

Two figures, one red and one blue, appeared in front of Jiang Yi.

It is Fa Nan and Ying Da.

Everyone has returned to the monks' camp.

"Hey! Daddy didn't come to greet me?" Jade couldn't help but put her hands on her hips when she arrived at the camp and didn't see Gabriel. This was the first time she had been separated from her daddy for so long, so she deserved a hug.

However, she is not a child anymore, so she thinks it’s better to forget about the hug. At least... her dad has to appear in front of her at the first possible moment!

After waiting for two minutes, I still didn't see my dad.

She couldn't help but look around and ask around the campsite.

"I didn't see Brother Gabriel this morning either. You can ask the brothers who were patrolling last night if they have seen him..." A monk clasped his hands together and responded to Jade.

There is no distinction between tribes here, only between teachers and brothers. All of them chant, practice, study, and work together with the ideal of protecting the oasis and benefiting all living beings.

During the early morning classes, everyone except the brothers who are on patrol and cooking will gather together.

As the first person to follow the Buddha, Gabriel was very familiar to everyone.

"Thank you!" Jade said goodbye to the monk and headed towards the edge of the camp.

There was no need to bother the patrolling brothers. She stood on tiptoe and saw a familiar person coming from a distance. He was carrying more than eighteen weapons on his back, spreading out like a peacock barrier, and he was holding a bunch of weapons in his hands.

"..." Jade watched Gabriel walk up to her.

Gabriel's hair was wet, and his clothes were wet, like a duck that had fallen into the water.

The golden morning sun shone on his body, and every drop of water seemed to be emitting light.

silence.

The two sides looked at each other in silence.

Gabriel dropped the weapons in his hands, untied the ones on his back, and threw them all on the ground.

"Jade..." He was thankful at this moment that his unshapely body allowed the new wounds on his body to heal, and he did not look as miserable as if he was seriously injured.

The blood can be washed off, but the holes in the clothes are not so easy to conceal.

"Good morning, Gabriel." Paimon and Ying appeared at the right time.

"Hey! What's up with these weapons of yours? Did you dig up the armory of the Tanit tribe?" Paimon joked in surprise.

"Jiang Yi wants you to come and discuss something. The monks will probably settle down in Mount Dama."

Ying nodded.

The monks’ journey will end at Mount Dama and will also begin again at Mount Dama.

The monks, arhats, yakshas, ​​every gust of wind, every grain of sand, and every blade of grass in the desert are all representatives of Jiang Yi in the human world.

"Jade, what do you want to know? I will tell you everything after this meeting is over." Gabriel admitted his mistake sincerely.

"..." Jade smelled the strong, lingering smell of blood on Gabriel's body.

nodded.

The meeting lasted only two hours.

The group set off again, bypassing the Tanit tribe and heading west, heading for the God-Abandoned Palace, the ruins of the city of Gur.

"This is about your mother and my past..." Gabriel confessed everything on the way, "I was once a core member of the Gilded Brigade 'Thutmose'. Thutmose was established to explore the legacy of the Red King. Finding the 'Golden Dreamland' and the 'Eternal Oasis' is Thutmose's vision."

"But later, I betrayed him and Thutmose."

When there is a conflict, if there is a third party with high emotional intelligence to intervene, the conflict will never become more acute.

The fact that Ying and Paimon were able to appear in time was naturally due to Jiang Yi's guidance.

Jiang Yi sat on a white elephant and wrote scriptures.

The box hanging on the white elephant contains books that he prepared to leave for the monks.
