Bringing glory to the ancestors
Fang Zelin gave a brief explanation, and then sat down by the fire with Jiuchuan.
"You little rascal, I have to admit I'm Qi Ingestion. You stood me up for so long."
After sitting down, Jiuchuan introduced Fang Zelin to the others.
"But seeing that your legs are both better, I won't hold it against you."
After uttering a complaint, Jiuchuan then generously expressed that he would forgive Fang Zelin for his previous actions.
The others nearby relaxed upon recognizing the newcomer as an acquaintance.
Anyone you know is fine.
Immediately, someone cut off a piece of roasted mutton and brought it to Fang Zelin.
After thanking him, Fang Zelin reached out and took the money.
After taking a bite, I nodded repeatedly. The lamb was really well-roasted, with no gamey smell at all.
"Speaking of which, seeing you heading towards Yuanqing Prefecture, are you planning to help out with something?"
As the group ate mutton and drank some wine, the atmosphere gradually became more lively.
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
Fang Zelin looked puzzled. He had just arrived to take a look around and had no idea what was going on.
"Currently, Yuanqing Prefecture is actually controlled by Blazing Summer, and recently Blazing Summer has been preparing to clear some land in Cloud-Linking Mountain to build a city. They've been carrying out large-scale construction lately. Don't you know about this?"
Seeing Fang Zelin's appearance, Jiuchuan was also puzzled.
What, wasn't Fang Zelin here to help with this?
"Well, I really didn't know that. I just heard about Yuanqing Prefecture and came to check it out."
"I see."
Seeing that Fang Zelin was unaware of this, Jiuchuan didn't press the matter further, instead saying, "But since you're here, let's go together! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"Who knows, this might even bring honor to our ancestors!"
Jiuchuan was already prepared and pulled Fang Zelin along.
"To bring glory to one's ancestors?"
Fang Zelin listened to these words, thought for a moment, and then shook his head.
He's an orphan here, what's the point of bringing glory to his ancestors?
Besides, he no longer pursues these things.
"Given your situation, it seems like you don't need to pursue this."
Fang Zelin asked, somewhat puzzled.
He was aware of Jiuchuan's situation.
Given Jiuchuan's previous situation, he really shouldn't have needed to pursue this.
Jiuchuan took a sip of water and smiled. "Mainly because I heard they needed people here, and I could help, so I came."
The reason is very simple: he came because he needed to.
"By the way, you haven't died since you came in? This is a real world. If you die once you come in, it takes half a month to get back in, and you don't learn as quickly as before."
Jiuchuan changed the subject and asked about something he was more interested in.
"No, they definitely didn't die once they came in."
Now that he's entered with his physical body, Fang Zelin is far superior to the others.
"That's good. From now on, we'll likely be fully immersed in this world."
Jiuchuan lowered his voice slightly as he spoke about this matter to Fang Zelin.
Back on Earth, rumors are circulating that everyone will be entering the path of seeking enlightenment in the future.
It's very likely that the other side of Earth is no longer habitable.
Nowadays, anyone who achieves even a little success in the game is directly supported by the government, allowing everyone to explore the game with peace of mind.
This attitude makes it hard not to have some doubts.
Because of this, many people have started making preparations.
Some of those who have already made money and bought houses with small courtyards are now much more relaxed.
Others came to Yuanqing Prefecture hoping to find a place where they could settle down.
If I were to actually move in here, I would naturally feel more at ease staying with Blazing Summer.
Upon hearing this, Fang Zelin immediately understood why Blazing Summer was undertaking such a large-scale construction project and seeking land in the Cloud-Linking Mountain.
There are many demons in the Cloud-Linking Mountain, but precisely because of their abundance, no dynasty has yet ventured into them.
If a few cities could be built there, then it would all belong to Blazing Summer.
Players can then buy houses in other counties to help reduce the population.
The rest moved into Yuanqing Prefecture and the newly built city in Cloud-Linking Mountain.
The external support for everyone's development in the game is probably also to alleviate some of the pressure on themselves.
Fang Zelin pondered for a moment and made a rough guess based on the information Jiuchuan had given him.
"If that's the case, we'll have to build City God or something similar inside, and it would be best to build a Mountain God Temple as well."
Fang Zelin hesitated for a moment, then spoke.
The mountain god outside Beiqu County was not yet fully enlightened.
When the mountain god has fully awakened its intelligence, we'll ask it if it would be willing to move to another location and come here to help guard the area.
There are many demons in the Cloud-Linking Mountain, so it would be good if more Orthodox God could help protect them.
I'll go into the mountains tomorrow and talk to those demons to see if we can free up a piece of land for Blazing Summer to use.
If this were to escalate into a direct confrontation, the Blazing Summer side would undoubtedly suffer countless casualties.
Upon realizing this, Fang Zelin immediately made up his mind.
"By the way, I was trying to find out about the situation overseas, but I couldn't find any news. Is there any news now?"
After thinking things through, Fang Zelin calmed down and asked a question.
Putting everything else aside, Fang Zelin was quite curious about the situation abroad.
It seems I didn't see anyone from other countries in the forum.
It seems that only people from the Blazing Summer entered the Great Jin Dynasty.
"I don't know. I've inquired about it, but the news is heavily censored. I heard that those foreigners are in some barbarian lands, but I don't know the specifics."
Jiuchuan replied indifferently upon hearing this.
He had only inquired about it casually before, and then never paid any more attention to it.
With so many things to deal with on my own, I have no time to worry about other countries.
Right now, let's take care of our own affairs first.
Seeing that Jiuchuan didn't know either, Fang Zelin didn't ask any more questions.
He was just asking out of curiosity.
"Alright, go to bed early tonight. I'll take you to meet some people tomorrow!"
At this point, Jiuchuan couldn't help but smile broadly.
Fang Zelin was puzzled by the other person's smile. "Who is it?"
"Tch, it's just the few wives he's married."
"Exactly! That guy is shameless; he brags about his wife to everyone he meets!"
Upon hearing this, the others immediately spoke up, their voices filled with indignation.
It seems they are quite dissatisfied with this matter.
Fang Zelin was taken aback. "You've married several wives?"
Wow, it's only been less than two years! How did this guy manage that?
