Holding an ordinary script, pretending to be a god in various worlds
Chapter 98: 9 Ding, Building a Palace
The second war between Qin and Chu finally began, as the King of Chu and the great nobles competed for the secret recipe for smelting minerals.
In the process of refining steel, people inevitably relaxed their efforts. Less than twenty iron-smelting furnaces were built. Even though the output was greatly increased as Nüba said, not many weapons were actually forged.
When the Chu army set out in a hurry, they did not even have one twentieth of the weapons.
Perhaps Xiang Yan had foreseen misfortune, so before leaving, he came to ask for an audience with Nüba, but was turned away.
"What should I do, system? It seems that the Chu State is doomed to fail."
Before the battle even started, "Nüba" whom the king and his ministers of Chu relied on coldly announced to the system that this path they were taking was a dead end.
"Then let's get as much as we can. By the way, didn't the King of Chu send people to spread the name of Nüba everywhere? Let me see how many fans are still missing for the task."
He also doesn't care about the fate of the State of Chu. Whether it perishes or prospers, it has nothing to do with him and the host.
A waste who can't seize the opportunity even if given one.
Compared with Qin, Chu was like a giant that was seriously ill, the kind that even the most powerful medicines could not save.
In this case, we can only squeeze out the last bit of value from the State of Chu!
"Host, we are still less than one million away."
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, a little puzzled:
"Qin can only provide about half of it. Is the remaining Chu State so strong?"
“Not all of them are from Chu.”
Seeing that the task was about to be completed, the system said briskly:
"There are two other countries, Yan and Qi. Some believe in the Moon God, and some believe in Nüba. So this is what we have.
The host thought well. Those who lean towards Qin and those who lean towards Chu have different beliefs, but no matter how cunning they are, they have to drink our foot washing water, hahahahahahahahaha."
Laugh out loud.
"Well, since there aren't many left, Nüba can let herself go."
Ling Xiao stretched his muscles with a gentle but creepy smile on his face, which made people feel cold in their hearts. It was obvious at a glance that he was thinking of some bad idea.
"As long as you are happy and do not interfere with the mission, I will cooperate with you throughout the process."
As for the possible consequences of the system's behavior on the host, we should just let it go and don't make things difficult for ourselves.
And the host should... know his limits.
"Well, think about it, the All-Star System is simply to maximize one's influence and fame, right?"
"That's right. We can complete so many tasks in ancient times now, thanks to your cleverness, host."
He flattered someone casually and was very skilled at it.
"A momentary fame is nothing. This era is too desolate. Perhaps within a hundred years, Nüba and Yueshen will become myths without any lasting fame."
"This is already good enough, as long as the task is completed."
Having said that, the system looked at Ling Xiao suspiciously. Is there anything wrong with this? The task is to be the first.
Ling Xiao looked serious and said seriously:
"Just completing the mission? What's the point? Our goal should be perfection, or even discovering new missions. Maybe there will be hidden achievements."
Haha, the system doesn’t even want to expose it. It would be great if Ling Xiao had this awareness.
"Yes, yes, so what do you want to do?" I asked directly, and added with some concern:
"We can't go too far. At least we can't destroy this plane. We can't afford the compensation. The Lord God will crush us."
I don't know why, but I always feel that the host will poke a hole in the sky one day.
"Don't worry." Seeing that he looked like he knew everything, Ling Xiao just said:
"I will take the King of Chu to excavate the Nine Cauldrons, and talk about the destiny of the Nine Provinces to make the King of Chu and his men happy.
Then let them build a palace for me. Qin Shihuang had the Afang Palace, so I don’t need to bother with mine. I’ll just call it the Nüba Palace. Hundreds or thousands of years later, the name of Nüba will be passed down along with this palace.”
The more Ling Xiao talked, the better he felt that his method was. The long-term success of a superstar depends on its works. Now that Nüba is secure, he must bring the Moon Goddess along with him in the future.
Qin Shi Huang cannot be as treacherous as the State of Chu. Otherwise, how about changing the name of the Afang Palace?
The system was silent, and he discovered once again that the host was not a human being!
You just ask someone to build a palace for you casually. Do you know how many laborers are conscripted and how much money and food are consumed to build a palace?
Compared with the Afang Palace, Du Mu's poems all said that only after the six kings were united could there be money to repair it.
With this, the Chu State’s treasury will be emptied by you!
But he had to admit that the host's Nüba Palace was really built, and perhaps the All-Star System's mission could be completed instantly.
So he ignored the little conscience he had left and agreed to the host's idea.
........................
What happened next was just as they expected. Wang Jian was an experienced commander and did not give Xiang Yan any chance. He steadily attacked the State of Chu. There were occasional battles, but he won more battles than he lost.
Under the threat of failing to achieve his goal, Ling Xiao acted quickly.
The Nine Cauldrons were a great treasure in the pre-Qin period. Legend has it that they symbolized the supremacy of royal power. The Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties all regarded them as national treasures.
"Historical Records: Fengshan Book":
"Yu collected the gold from the nine herdsmen and cast nine tripods. He used them to worship the gods and ghosts.
When a sage came, the tripod prospered, and the tripod was moved to the Xia and Shang dynasties. When the virtue of the Zhou dynasty declined and the society of Song was destroyed, the tripod was lost and disappeared.”
Later emperors attached great importance to the Nine Cauldrons as a symbol of power, and many emperors recast the Nine Cauldrons.
The most shameless thing the Qin and Chu countries ever did was to lead their armies to intimidate the declining Zhou royal family and seek the Nine Cauldrons.
This shows how strong their desire for the Nine Cauldrons is.
So when the King of Chu received the news from Nüba, he was stunned and asked in disbelief, "Did the goddess Nüba really say there was news about the Nine Cauldrons?"
After getting a positive answer, King Fu Chu of Chu hurried to Nüba.
Ling Xiao strictly abides by the character settings, and combines them with later legends. When Dayu cast the Nine Cauldrons, he incorporated the destiny of the human race into it, and was able to open the Kyushu barrier.
Anyway, the King of Chu was fooled and was at a loss as to what to do. He couldn't wait to get the Nine Cauldrons and then unify the world.
"…………When I passed by the bank of Luo River, I saw a shining treasure, with a vague aura of the Nine Provinces, and I knew it was the Nine Cauldrons made by Dayu."
The King of Chu cupped his hands and said excitedly:
"Please help me, the great goddess Nüba, to salvage the Nine Cauldrons. The State of Chu will surely reward me handsomely in the future."
Nüba looked at him playfully, her pair of black gemstone eyes looking like a demon:
"No need to come again. There is gain and loss. Chu State has obtained the Nine Cauldrons, so please build a palace for me."
Ling Xiao read along with the system's cheat sheet:
"There should be a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps...the climate is different within a day"
The King of Chu's face slowly turned as pale as a deathly person.
