In recent days, the people who have lived in Loulan City for generations have suddenly discovered that the city is much more lively.
After asking around, it was said that a big shot from the Qin State, the overlord of the East, had come.
The alert people discovered that a handsome Taoist priest was instructing people to build an altar outside the city.
I wonder which demon is being sacrificed to?
Then the merchants who came to Loulan City brought some news. There has been some unrest in various parts of the Western Region recently. A group of ruthless bandits appeared out of nowhere and robbed and killed caravans everywhere.
This group of ruthless bandits is a new bandit, because no one of the caravans they robbed survived.
If you are a veteran bandit, as long as you don't resist, you will just take the goods and leave, and you will never do such stupid things as "killing the goose to obtain the eggs".
After all, without the caravan, the bandits would not be able to enter large oases to live, and would most likely starve to death in the desert.
As the news spread, the common people's caravan couldn't help but have a thought: "The Western Region is going to be in chaos."
No matter what rumors spread outside, Lin Ze remained very calm and wandered around the city every day.
It's not that Lin Ze is ignorant and careless, but that he has already built a complete system in the Western Regions.
Some people guard one area and develop the economy, while others patrol around and hunt down bandits.
Lin Ze even set up a special yamen to quell rumors.
With all the recent events, it has not yet been Lin Ze's turn to take action personally.
If Lin Ze did everything himself, wouldn't he die from exhaustion?
Besides, Lin Ze was not wandering around for fun, but trying to find people with higher luck for his own use.
Over the past few days, most of what Lin Ze saw were green and white people, with very few yellow ones.
I met a total of two red ones, both of them female.
However, Lin Ze still did not let them go and asked his men to keep them forcibly until they were needed.
Lin Ze, who had been wandering around for a whole morning but found nothing yet, suddenly thought: "I wonder how the second senior brother is doing when he builds an altar outside the city. Why don't you go and take a look?"
Whatever he wanted to do, Lin Ze drifted in the wind and came outside the city, only to see Hui Shi standing next to Zhuang Zhou, chattering incessantly.
Zhuang Zhou just looked helpless and remained silent.
Seeing Lin Ze coming, Zhuang Zhou seemed to have seen a savior and said quickly: "Junior brother, you are here just in time. Your third senior brother has something to tell you."
Hui Shi also followed up and said: "Junior brother is here at the right time, you are here to comment."
Lin Ze's face froze when he saw this, he raised his forehead and looked helpless: "It's starting again."
When Hui Shi said earlier, "Zhuang Zhou can go, why can't I go?" Lin Ze guessed that there must be a story between the two, but he didn't expect that it was a bad fate.
The two of them would argue every now and then, endlessly.
In terms of sharp words, Hui Shi was far inferior to Zhuang Zhou. Zhuang Zhou could choke Hui Shi to death with just one sentence.
But in terms of volume of words, even Zhuang Zhou could not compare with Hui Shi, because Hui Shi would talk continuously for three or four hours.
Don't ask Lin Ze how he knew it, because he listened for three or four hours.
Lin Ze secretly cursed himself for being a bitch and running outside the city. The probability of encountering such a situation is not small. He walked closer and said with a smile: "Why are the two senior brothers arguing again? Can each of us take a step back?"
Hui Shi said with a stubborn look on his face: "There is no retreat on this matter today. We must win or lose."
Zhuang Zhou, who had always been calm and uncontroversial, unexpectedly nodded in agreement with Hui Shi's statement.
Lin Ze couldn't help but asked curiously: "I wonder what could make the two senior brothers argue so much?"
Hui Shi pointed to the altar in the distance and said, "Nothing else. It's just because we have different opinions on the specifications of the altar."
"Zhuang Zhou believes that the junior brother is in the realm of heaven and man, and the altar should be nine feet and nine feet high. Senior brother, I think that since the junior brother wants to establish a country and become the leader of a country, the height of the altar should be nine feet and five feet, which means the honor of ninety-five feet."
"On this point, neither me nor him can convince the other. What do you think, junior brother?"
Lin Ze looked puzzled and asked: "Does the height of the altar have a big impact?"
Zhuang Zhou solemnly said: "Of course it has a great influence. The main purpose of setting up the altar is to allow junior brothers to better connect with Heaven and obtain gifts from Heaven when offering sacrifices to Heaven."
"If the altar does not meet the requirements, not only will it not be able to help our junior brother, it will actually harm our junior brother, so it is particularly important."
"Similar to this kind of altar for praying to heaven, your second senior brother, me and your third senior brother both have no experience, so it is difficult to handle it."
Lin Ze suddenly realized that there was still this Tao inside.
Lin Ze recalled some of the books he had read in his previous life. The size was indeed very important, especially not being too small.
Hui Shi also added: "The altar is very important to Junior Brother because it is about reputation."
"As the saying goes, if you are not recognized by heaven and earth, the difficulties will be doubled when the junior disciples compete for destiny."
Lin Ze nodded slightly, and without saying a word, "Knowing the Destiny" was activated.
After a while, Lin Ze looked complicated, surprised and happy.
Fortunately, even in the realm of gods and humans, "know destiny" can still be used, and I got an answer.
There are two things that are shocking. First, Lin Ze, who is in the realm of heaven and human, was shocked to have one-tenth of the power of heaven and earth drained from his body by using this secret method.
Lin Ze felt more and more that the person who created this secret technique was an unnatural person.
Second, the answer given by "Knowing the Destiny" is not nine feet and nine, nor nine feet and five, but ten feet.
What the hell is ten feet? Is it perfect?
But he saw a look of surprise on Hui Shi's face and said, "Junior brother actually thinks that ten feet is reasonable?"
Lin Ze's cheeks twitched slightly. You said you weren't a mind reader. You could guess that?
Hui Shi frowned and said, "I don't know why, but I vaguely feel that the ten feet mentioned by my junior brother is very reasonable. Zhuang Zhou, what do you think?"
Zhuang Zhouyi frowned slightly and said, "I seem to have this feeling, but how did my junior brother know?"
"Is it because it involves him and makes you feel something?"
Hui Shi nodded and said, "That should be the case. If that's the case, then let's build it according to my junior brother's wishes."
Lin Ze has a black line on his forehead, I didn’t say anything, okay?
It's just that both Zhuang Zhou and Hui Shi vaguely felt that Shi Zhang was reasonable, so Lin Ze naturally chose to believe in the answer given by Zhi Tianming.
Lin Ze glanced at the altar that was about to take shape, nodded slightly, and hurried away while the general had settled a dispute before the two started arguing again.
As soon as I entered the city, I heard a call: "Uncle Master."
Lin Ze immediately focused his attention on a man who was hiding under a bamboo hat and could not show his breath.
If this person is not Chen Ping, who is he?
Before Lin Ze could react, Wu Fan hurried over and said loudly: "Please inform me, the two generals Zhang Han and Yu Ziqi have been found and will return with their army in the near future."
Lin Ze looked at Chen Ping, who had a red head with purple luck, and heard that the army was about to return. He smiled slightly, and finally no longer lost any confidence.
