Dressed as an abandoned daughter of a wealthy family, she relies on metaphysics to become a god

Unexpectedly, a smile appeared on the young man's lips, and he said: "You govern the country very well, which is the most rare skill in the world."

Xue Long had an indescribable feeling. The young man's smile was clearly friendly, but the more he looked at it, the weirder it seemed to him.

The next afternoon, when Xue Long passed by the zoo, he heard several people talking about him loudly.

"You know, our king doesn't know anything."

"Then how did he become king? Could it be that the old king chose the wrong person..."

"When the old king was alive, we never saw mosquitoes, but since this man came, there have been more and more mosquitoes."

"Yes, the number of fish caught in Peacock River has decreased."

"Don't tell me, I've met the new king a few times before, and he seemed to have trouble speaking clearly."

Their shrill laughter reached Xue Long's ears, and he felt as if there was a poisonous fire burning inside his body, making him want to leave here quickly.

From that day on, the rumors grew more and more.

The way the people of Jose looked at him changed. Before, people respected him very much, but now they showed some contempt and disgust for him.

Xue Long suddenly figured it out. It must be that outsider who spread the rumors. Otherwise, why would the people suddenly start to hate him?

Xue Long has been sitting in this position for not just one or two years, but more than three hundred years. Even if he has no merits, he must have worked hard, right?

But he didn't understand, what benefit would it bring to him if outsiders did this?

If they are plotting to take Xue Long's throne, outsiders cannot stay in Jose Country.

Xue Long called a guard and asked him to summon the outsider. He must find out what the young man was planning.

The outsider was accommodated in a courtyard within the royal court. He arrived quickly, carrying his luggage in his hands.

"Your Majesty, what is the matter that you summoned me for?"

His smile was still so polite and decent. Xue Long frowned and asked, "I want to know, what have you been doing these days? Have you seen our country's mythical beast Baimo?"

If he answered that he had seen it, Xue Long would be sure that he must have been to the beast farm in the past few days.

So, the rumors those people heard came from the mouths of young people.

"Bai Mo?" The young man thought about it carefully. "As far as I can remember, there didn't seem to be an animal named 'Bai Mo' at your banquet."

"It doesn't matter. You can still stay in Jose Country for three days. I'll take you there tomorrow and you'll see it." Xue Long said, "Have you ever been to the Peacock River?"

The Peacock River is the only large river in the country of José. It runs through the country and the river water is a rich blue-green color, like a peacock's feathers, hence the name Peacock River.

The young man shook his head and glanced at it from a distance, but he did not go to the riverside.

Xue Long was very puzzled. He neither went to the beast farm nor to the Peacock River. Did he stay in the room every day and never go out?

"So, what have you done these days?" Xue Long turned his head and asked.

The young man did not answer. He waved to the musician next to him and took the musician's guzheng.

With a slight flick of his fingers, the konghou produced an extremely beautiful and melodious sound, like the cry of a divine bird or the gurgling of water.

Everyone was stunned by his superb skills, and even the old musician felt inferior to him.

The young man hooked the strings of the konghou with his left hand, and took the hand drum placed beside him with his right hand, playing music and beating the drum at the same time.

Soon, he was no longer satisfied with just two instruments, and before the drum beats stopped, the melodious flute sounds began again.

Because the young man was holding the flute with one hand, he could not produce many notes, but it sounded very harmonious and there was no sense of incongruity.

Pansheng, tambourine, flute, pipa... more than 30 kinds of musical instruments flow in his hands. He is proficient in each of them and can compose a complete piece of music.

At the end, he stepped quickly onto the largest drum, and to the beat of the drum, he began to dance the traditional dance of Jose's country.

Although his performance lasted less than a quarter of an hour, everyone was fascinated and wanted more.

Even Xue Long admired him very much. In the Kingdom of Jose, those who could play ten musical instruments could serve as musicians in the palace, but this young man could play more than thirty musical instruments and was also good at singing and dancing.

"Your hometown also has these musical instruments, right?" Xue Long said without question.

"No, there are similar konghou in my hometown, but they only have 25 strings at most. The ones here have more than 50 strings, and the fingerings are rarely similar." The young man said excitedly, "The flute you have here is a rare long flute, and the two sides of the tambourine have different sounds. As for the dance steps, I have never heard of them before."

He took a step towards the throne and continued, "You asked me what I have been doing these days, right? This is what I have been doing. I have learned all the musical instruments in the country and seven kinds of dance. I can now write 90% of the characters and languages ​​recorded in your country's library."

In order to prove himself, the young man asked his servant for paper and pen and wrote an article in a very eloquent manner.

He presented the article respectfully and said, "I am not good at writing. This is a famous fu from my hometown. I just wrote it down from memory. In addition to Joseph's language, I also used Indian, Parthian, and Arab languages... a total of 17 languages."

Whenever a foreigner came into the Kingdom of Jose who could read and write, Jose would record the characters he used.

So far, there are a total of twenty-two languages ​​in the treasury of Joseph's country. The young man used seventeen of them in this article. It doesn't mean that he only knows these many, but that the fu he wrote from memory was too short.

The guard brought the article to Xue Long. There was no mistake in the part written by Jose, but Xue Long did not recognize other characters, so he could not understand the rest.

"May I ask your Majesty, are there any mistakes in this article of mine?" the young man asked confidently.

Xue Long sincerely praised: "You write very well and are very talented. It's a pity that you can't stay in Jose Country, otherwise, I would definitely make you a musician... no, a minister in the inner court!"

"Your Majesty, how do you know that I can't stay in Jose?" The young man laughed. "You said that those outsiders can't live in Jose, otherwise they will get sick and die. In my opinion, it's just that you are too narrow-minded and unwilling to accept outsiders!"

Before Xue Long could react, the young man stepped forward and announced loudly to the ministers, guards and servants in the hall: "Everyone, have you ever seen the scenery outside? Have you ever climbed a towering mountain? Have you ever read the surging river? Although the country of Ruozhe is good, you cannot enter and exit freely. The king has built a cage for you, are you willing to be locked up here forever?"

Everyone was shocked. Since birth, they had been instilled with the idea that everything in Jose Country was the best, and they had never thought about what the outside world was like.

The young man struck while the iron was hot and recounted his experiences of traveling abroad.

"I have been to Siam, where the climate is unbearably hot, but the fruits and vegetables grow well; I have been to Annan, where it rains a lot, and it also has unique and beautiful scenery..."

The climate of most of these places is not as good as that of Jose Country, but it is precisely because the climate and environment of each place are different that different scenes are created.

"But, Your Majesty, you do not allow your subjects to leave, nor do you allow outsiders to stay for a long time." The young man said to Xue Long, "In my opinion, you are indeed not a convincing king. You said that you were born without advantages, but you did not take the initiative to learn in the past three hundred years, right?"

He took back the article he had written, "You said there was nothing wrong with my article, but in fact, except for the Jose text, I added a small mistake in the other texts. And you didn't see it, which proves that you don't know the other texts I wrote at all!"

Compared with the young people, Xue Long felt ashamed.

A young man who had just arrived in Jose Country for a few days could learn so many musical instruments and words, but he, as the king who ruled a country, knew nothing.

But he still wanted to defend himself, he said: "I did not prohibit outsiders from joining Jose Country, but outsiders can only stay in Jose Country for a maximum of seven days. There is evidence for all this."

The ministers also agreed that most of the people who had stayed in Jose Country before had gradually become weak, and some even died suddenly within a few days.

The young man did not believe what he said and retorted: "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. I came to Jose seven days ago. Your Majesty, why don't you come and see if I will be infected and die like the others."

And so the young man stayed in the country of Jose.

Xue Long was also very curious whether he could break the curse of Jose Country and survive successfully.

Another seven days passed, and the young man did not suffer any illness. One month, three months, six months...

The Jose people have a long lifespan, and a few years are just a blink of an eye for them.

However, the young man survived and was still healthy.

Three years later, he visited the royal court again.

"Your Majesty, you must be curious about why I am different from other outsiders?" he asked.

Xue Long nodded, and then he suddenly felt uneasy.

"Let me tell you why the outsiders before were infected and died." The young man took out a jade pot, "This is the wine pot that the king uses to entertain guests, but I found that it is not filled with wine, but a colorless and odorless poison!"

He poured the liquid in the jade pot out, and a large number of flowers on the grass withered instantly.

Xue Long stood up in shock. This wine jug was indeed used by Jose Kingdom to entertain guests, but he had no idea that it contained poison.

Could it be that the kings in the past used this wine to poison outsiders?

Soon, Xue Long realized that things were not that simple.

Outside the royal court, the crowds of people were densely packed. There was anger, disappointment, and fear in the eyes of each of them, and they were all questioning Xue Long with their eyes.

"No, please listen to my explanation. I..."

Xue Long was so anxious that his mouth was dry, but he has never been good at speaking, especially when he was excited, he would stutter slightly.

And his actions, in the eyes of others, seemed to be a sign of genuine guilt.

The young man took out a flute from his arms and played it melodiously. Soon, people were all exclaiming in surprise.

"West, something is flying over from the west!"

"what is that?"

"Sacred Bird!"

"How could the divine bird appear?!"

"Oh my god, the divine bird has arrived!"

A giant bird that looked like a peacock flew over from a distance. Its body was about 20 to 30 feet long, and its tail feathers suddenly spread out, as if thousands of green eyes opened at the same time.

The divine bird flew into the royal court as fast as thunder. Seeing the divine bird getting closer and closer, Xue Long stood up at a loss.

A clear cry came from its throat and it flew straight towards Xue Long's face. Just as Xue Long was stunned, the divine bird used its extremely sharp beak to snatch the jewel from his crown.

The divine bird flew around the royal court and finally landed on the young man's shoulder, then gently placed the gem in his hand.

"He is not our king!"

"Xue Long is fake! Even the divine bird doesn't recognize him!"

"I've said it before, Xue Long is not worthy of being king!"

"Get off here, liar!"

"Our new king has appeared, and he is the real king!"

People rushed forward and pulled Xue Long down from the throne, while the young outsider slowly stepped onto the throne with a satisfied smile on his face.

Xue Long immediately understood that this young man had been plotting to seize his throne all along.

Although the throne meant nothing to Xue Long, he was even more reluctant to hand over the throne to an outsider.

"Everyone, listen to me. I am willing to hand over the throne to any minister of the inner court, or any resident of Jose Country." Xue Long said loudly, "But I don't trust this person. I never poisoned the wine pot. He deliberately slandered me! He has bad intentions and is not worthy of being king!"

"What are you talking about, Xue Long? Don't you think he is more suitable to be our king than anyone else? With such a god-like man as our king, he will definitely make the Kingdom of Jose more powerful and prosperous."

Xue Long was shocked, because the person who said this was none other than an inner court minister who had always been by his side.

Even the people closest to him and those he trusts the most have turned against him. Will anyone still support him?

"Everyone, listen to me. People like Xue Long who kill others should not stay in our Jose Country." The new king said, "Otherwise, more innocent people will die. I don't want to kill him, so let the guards escort him to the high mountains outside Jose Country and let him fend for himself."

Everyone cheered and praised the new king for his kindness and magnanimity. Xue Long wanted to explain something, but the guards on both sides dragged him away.

"Such a cruel person is not worthy of wearing the gauze clothes we weave!"

"He has been supported by us for so long, he should return all these things to us now!"

"It's true that you can't judge a person by his appearance. How could there be such a despicable and shameless person in our country of Jose?!"

The people wanted to tear Xue Long's flesh apart. They tore off his clothes in anger and threw stones and rotten fruits at him.
