As long as there are enough vests, the plot can't kill me
Chapter 12 Declaration of War
Shanglin City.
As black and white alternated, a faint light appeared on the horizon.
Soon after, the peaceful atmosphere in the city was broken by all kinds of noises, and a new day arrived on time.
clang!
The ringing of the alarm clock on the city wall was like a horn of attack. Countless figures rushed out of their homes the moment the bell rang and gathered in the street to form a long winding dragon.
It was early February and the cold had not yet dissipated.
However, a slight cool breeze could not stop the ardent enthusiasm of the people of Shanglin City, and the troops quickly gathered towards the center of the city like a forced march.
In this big city where monks and civilians live together, not only is the South City where the civilians live crowded with people, but the other three sides also have similar scenes.
People may travel alone, in groups, or with their families. Although their ways of traveling are different and the tools they rely on are different, there is the same gleam of expectation in their eyes.
Boom!
"The young master has ordered that pedestrians are not allowed to push each other, carriages are not allowed to drive on the main road, and you are not allowed to make loud noises. Those who violate the order will be expelled from the clan and punished."
On the tops of the buildings on both sides of the road, there was a monk wearing a dark red standard robe holding a gong at regular intervals, issuing warnings to the huge crowd below.
These monks standing tall in the light, with the word "Lin" on their chests particularly eye-catching, carry an invisible deterrent.
After repeated warnings, the originally disorganized team became more orderly, and the marching speed slowed down slightly, almost in line with the first ray of sunlight sweeping across the city.
"Dad, do you think we can see the young lady today?"
"Meet the young lady? Ha, what are you dreaming of? With your slow personality, you can't even eat hot food! How many times have I told you, every February 2nd..."
At the back half of the team, the middle-aged man looked at the endless queue, frowned and slapped his son on the back, so angry that he didn't want to say a word.
The neighbor who was traveling with us heard the noise, turned around, looked ahead, and then showed regret for getting up late.
"Yeah, Xiao Zhang, don't even think about meeting the eldest lady today. Even if she is willing to show up, we won't be able to see her. Go earlier next time, hahahaha."
A cheerful atmosphere emanated from the end of the team and spread at a terrifying speed, causing everyone to start discussing in low voices, with the topic gradually centered on the same person.
Lin Xiao, the young master of the Lin family, is the eldest lady in the eyes of all the common people in Shanglin City.
The Lin family practitioners standing on the roof had amazing hearing ability, so they could naturally hear what was being said below and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
February 2nd of every year is not only the birthday of my young lady, but also the day when the first issue of "Da Qianjie Edition" of the new year is published.
All the bustle and noise in the city originate from here.
What is a publication?
A type of video that uses photo stones as a medium, produced and distributed exclusively by the major sect of cultivation, Piao Miao Pavilion, and serves as a window for mortals and cultivators to understand the latest developments in the world.
Before the publication of printed materials, there was no stable and reliable channel for the dissemination of information in the world.
Various information is only passed on by word of mouth. Not only is it difficult to distinguish the authenticity of the content, but the speed and scope of its dissemination are also greatly limited.
But once the publication was released, the world changed completely.
Outsiders were not aware of the details of the initial acquaintance between the Master of Piao Miao Pavilion and Young Master Lin, but they were all spontaneously glad in their hearts that the scene that happened fifteen years ago had happened.
From then on, the Great Thousand World had a publication, Piao Miao Pavilion, a sect that was more of a secondary cultivation sect, became famous, and the common people at the bottom of society also had a chance to get to know the outside world.
Of course, ordinary people cannot afford the image stones, so they can only watch the free version through the projection array.
Moreover, this kind of opportunity will not come soon enough. Once you miss it, you can only ask others.
Therefore, on this day every year, the people of the South City of Shanglin City are the most active and proud.
The eldest lady, who had a close relationship with the master of Piaomiao Pavilion, not only did not despise them for being poor people who could not afford to buy publications, but also marked out the largest area for those who brought their own small stools to watch.
Although the information in the free version is not as detailed as that in the released photo stone, no one feels dissatisfied and everyone enjoys reading it every time.
"Everyone please be quiet and enter the venue in order and take your seats. We are all neighbors so please squeeze in if you can, haha."
Cen Ying, the head elder of Piaomiao Pavilion, has been in Shanglin City for ten years and is no stranger to the scene before him.
He had no airs of a great monk at all. Not only did he personally lead everyone to take their seats, but he also had a smile on his face the whole time.
The reason why the people of South City feel proud is not only because of the other party's friendly attitude, but also because only people living in Shanglin City have the privilege of viewing the magazine for free.
While everyone was grateful, they felt that they could not lose face for the young lady, so when entering the room, they either bowed or raised their hands to greet, and then found a place to sit down quietly.
Those incongruous yet extremely sincere actions made Elder Cen smile even more, and he felt as if a stream of clear spring water was flowing through his chest, refreshing his heart.
Seeing that more and more people were entering the venue, a group of disciples from Piao Miao Pavilion hurried forward to guide them and share the pressure on their master.
However, after Elder Cen had some free time, there was suddenly a hint of regret in his wandering eyes, and he was sighing in his heart.
Once today's edition is published, the unique beauty of Shanglin City will no longer exist.
"let's start!"
"Yes."
The disciples did not notice any change in the master's tone, and began to follow the procedures in an orderly manner according to the previous arrangements.
When the huge white curtain, which was five meters high and nearly seven or eight meters wide, appeared, everyone held their breath and dared not make any sound.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, this array base with a special function slowly lit up, images of people gradually emerged on it, and then there were sounds.
[Happy New Year everyone, I am Tu Hong from Piao Miao Pavilion, and I am Cen Qin from Piao Miao Pavilion...]
The familiar beginning, the familiar voice, the familiar host, and the edition similar to the news broadcast format once again meet all the audiences in the world.
After the routine greetings, the four announcers, two men and two women in the video, directly summarized the key information of this edition, commonly known as the headlines.
[Lin Xiao openly appeared in Yuzhou, and the eldest lady has not yet drawn the energy into her body. ]
[A small-scale war broke out between the two super-class dynasties of Tianyu and Qiyue. If it is not necessary, please bypass the borders of Shanyue and Shangliang. ]
[Exclusive news: The Lin family lacks stamina and may fall out of the top ten families.]
[According to the report from our staff stationed in the Great Wilderness, a demonic aura has appeared in the Black Lake Abyss, and the source has not yet been discovered.]
[Our worshiper infers that the internal factional struggle of the Lin family has become irreconcilable and is facing a crisis of division.]
……
[Gossip: The 100-year period is approaching, and each family is competing for the ranking of the noble families. Only the Lin family is silent, and it is suspected that a major change has occurred within the family. ]
[Gossip: List of Young Master Lin’s top ten rumored boyfriends, with stunning photos of the young lady! ]
After revealing each piece of key information, there is a detailed report of each headline, with corresponding video assistance.
Originally, everyone thought that this edition would be the same as previous ones, allowing people to learn about world events and perhaps also hold a glimmer of chance.
But after seeing the true appearance of the publication, even the people of South City who came here for the fun and to broaden their horizons could sense a hint of impending storm.
Among more than a dozen important news, the Lin family accounted for seven or eight of them, and was criticized everywhere.
Even a fool would know what kind of impact this would have at a time when the rankings of the aristocratic families were about to be re-ranked.
The most subtle thing is that the friendship between Piao Miao Pavilion Master and Young Master Lin is well known to the world. If the publication reported it this way, it must have been...
The people of Shanglin City didn't dare to think about it anymore, but watched the image in front of them more attentively without blinking.
The crowded city square no longer had its usual bustle and excitement, and the solemn atmosphere made even the children afraid to make any noise.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way."
In less than a moment, a series of arrogant and slightly panicked voices sounded from behind the crowd, and along with the voices came a group of figures falling in front of the curtain.
People looked up and found that the people coming were a group of monks wearing dark blue robes. They subconsciously shrank back for fear of bumping into each other.
These men in black also had the word "Lin" embroidered in large letters on their chests. After seeing the video being played, their faces turned red and they clenched their fists.
Elder Cen standing by frowned fiercely upon seeing this, a chill emanated from his body, and he sneered in his heart.
The Lin family is a sect of hidden cultivation?
Ah!
When he recognized the person's identity, he suddenly changed his previous friendly attitude and stared at the other person with his sharp eyes, making the other person's hair stand on end.
"Everyone, this place belongs to my Piao Miao Pavilion. For the sake of Young Master Lin, I will not bother with you. Please leave quickly."
The order to expel the guest was given without any respect. The leading monk from the Lin family not only did not dare to show his anger, but also had to bow and salute.
"It is our fault for being rude. I hope you will forgive me, Senior."
Being slapped in the face in public in their own base camp, the Lin family cultivator who was bowing felt an inexplicable humiliation in his heart.
Piao Miao Pavilion, don't think that you are great just because you have two Mahayana monks. Wait until my Lin family's ancestor takes the step of transcendence...
"Okay, you go."
"Yes."
Elder Cen waved his hand, not caring at all about what the other party was thinking, and simply waved his hand to send him away.
He stared at the group of people who were leaving in a hurry with amusement in his eyes.
A bunch of arrogant fools who don't know how to cherish such a dazzling pearl and insist on forcing people to leave.
Haha, the little girl finally declared war on the family!
