Prophet Daily (2/3)

Yunmeng Marsh, Hidden Dragon Island.

This is the place that Xiluo specially arranged for Deception Rabbit to stay after his return.

Similarly, this is also where the Wind-Wielding Thunder God Xuansu Shi, was imprisoned.

However, although he was confined to Hidden Dragon Island.

However, Xuansu Shi herself was quite happy with her current living environment and lifestyle.

There's no need to consider missions or responsibilities anymore, nor is there a need to deliberately disguise one's feelings and thoughts.

Xuansu Shi's greatest hobby was to take a fishing rod and go fishing in the Yunmeng Marsh next to the island.

Although most of the time, Xuansu Shi caught the rather greedy Human-Faced Fish, she never tired of it.

After all, there aren't many people in the entire Yunmeng Marsh who can use elixirs to fish.

This is no longer a question of whether it's luxurious or not.

Apart from the Xuansu Shi, no one else would use such precious elixirs in this way.

However, recently, Xuansu Shi has stopped doing so.

This was certainly not because she had run out of pills, but because she had developed a more novel hobby—reading newspapers.

The newspaper in Xuansu Shi's hand was a huge sheet of talisman paper, about two feet four-quarters the size, divided into eight pages.

Despite being called "newspaper," this talisman paper possesses a toughness comparable to silk, and even has the effect of being impervious to water and fire.

This newspaper was published by none other than [another entity].

It was the members of the Li Household Village Newspaper Office, led by Li Jingshu and Qinghe.

In a sense, this so-called "newspaper" is actually an upgraded version of the [Talisman Paper Version Radio] from a few years ago.

Unlike the newspapers in Li Boyang's previous life, these newspapers were not disposable.

As long as Li Jingshu and Qinghe haven't lost the master copy, they can rewrite the newspaper's content at any time.

Correspondingly, the sub-versions held by other people will also change.

So even in places outside the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

With just one copy of this newspaper, one can stay informed about events happening in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

In fact, when Li Jingshu showed this thing to Li Boyang, he was truly stunned.

In an era where travel is mostly by walking and communication is mostly by shouting, the Mountain Folk have actually come up with something similar to a mobile phone.

Of course, calling it a mobile phone isn't entirely accurate.

Although these newspapers update their content daily, they certainly don't have an active search function.

In Li Boyang's view, this is more like a text-based mobile radio, or a mobile mini television set.

Following Li Boyang's suggestion, Li Jingshu and the other newspaper members went a step further, dividing the newspaper into eight sections in detail.

The first section is [Front Page Headlines].

It mainly releases some major and crucial news.

These news items include, but are not limited to, major events occurring in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, as well as some plans and predictions for the future.

The second section is [Toutiao].

It mainly refers to some key events that have occurred in the short term, or even today.

This section is quite diverse, covering everything from major transportation routes to minor conflicts between villages. The third section is [Hundred Land Ecology].

It mainly describes and introduces the ecology and appearance of some of the Gods of the Hundred Lands.

In particular, deities and spirits with particularly bad tempers, or those who have caused a lot of trouble recently, will issue special warnings to the Mountain Folk through the newspapers.

The fourth section is [Weather Forecast].

Just like its name suggests, this is a section for predicting future weather conditions.

Thanks to the widespread use of the calculation method, this system can almost predict detailed rainfall and weather conditions in various parts of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range for the next few days.

In this way, even in the more backward villages, there was no need to specifically teach divination, which greatly facilitated the lives of the Mountain Folk.

Then comes the back of the newspaper, with its frequently rotating secondary sections.

This includes [Cultivation Analysis], [Essentials of Law Technique], [Technical Sharing], [Sequence of Deities], [Spirit and Monster Popular Science], [Culture and Education], [Public Services], [Assistance in Hundreds of Places], [Public Welfare Projects], and [Dynamic Entertainment], among others.

Within these secondary rotating sectors.

The most popular section among the Mountain Folk is the recently added [Dynamic Entertainment] section.

After all, Li Boyang had been promoting a unified written language and the popularization of education for a long time.

However, compared to the large number of Mountain Folk, many of the older Mountain Folk are still illiterate, and even among the younger generation, there are inevitably some illiterate people.

The emergence of [Dynamic Entertainment] perfectly catered to the needs of these illiterate people.

This is because this section consists entirely of dynamic video, unlike the static section where text explanations dominate.

The creation of this section means that this newspaper is more like the television set that Li Boyang remembers.

In order to achieve "continuously dynamic visual presentation" in the newspaper.

Li Jingshu even took the initiative to seek help from Li Boyang, which was quite unusual, and that's how they broke through the bottleneck of this technology.

Since the promotion of this newspaper, titled "The Prophet Daily".

Within the territory of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range and within the activity range of the Mountain Folk, many more newspapers were successively established.

These newspapers lacked a "News & Entertainment" section, and even daily updates were difficult to maintain.

However, their appearance greatly enriched the lives of the Mountain Folk.

It has brought together Mountain Folk, who are now scattered all over the world, in a more intimate way.

Take Xuansu Shi for example. Besides reading the Prophet Daily, her greatest hobby now is collecting newspapers published by other Mountain Folk.

The collection of newspapers and periodicals, as thick as a book, was enough for Xuansu Shi to understand all the situations inside and outside the Hundred Lands Mountain Range without leaving her home on Hidden Dragon Island.

In order to distinguish this special newspaper from ordinary newspapers.

Many people also refer to it as a [rune newspaper] – a special newspaper made using rune technology.

"Unfortunately, other newspapers don't have a news section; they can only publish pictures."

As she flipped through the newspapers in her hands, Xuansu Shi sighed with regret.

Making the images in the video keep moving remains Secret Method exclusive to The Prophet Daily.

Even though The Prophet Daily had previously shared this technology with all readers through its [Technology Sharing] section,

However, the materials involved and the modifications to the master template were still beyond the reach of ordinary Mountain Folk.

Perhaps we can only replicate a second copy of the "Prophet Daily" when some powerful deity becomes interested in publishing a newspaper in the future.

Xuansu Shi felt that that day shouldn't be far off.

At least within the Yunmeng Marsh, quite a few gods have already begun to stir.

However, given Li Jingshu's formidable reputation, they were all waiting for a pioneer.

Only after confirming Li Jingshu's attitude will the Ghost God of Yunmeng Marsh apply this technology to other newspapers.

In any case, the gods and the Mountain Folk have different concerns.

We have plenty of time to wait and test the waters; there's no rush at all.
