Chapter 9: The Heavens Descend to Earth
Young master, are you alright
They then understood that it was Haotian who had sealed this object in the jar with noble magic, and pulling that ring would release this object back into the world.
Oh dear
Could it really be a gift from heaven
Had it not been for encountering this situation today, he had originally intended to wait a few more days and inquire about how to use this item once Liu Bang arrived.
How is this item?
He respectfully bowed again, and amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, picked up the "iron can" and examined it closely, finding it increasingly marvelous.
Liu Shan secretly clenched his fists, observing the people before him who were bowing, each seemingly stifling a mischievous smile. Anger gradually surged within him, and he was almost ready to point his finger at them and accuse them of being disloyal and unfilial
Ju Fu originally intended to take it home for offering, to present it before his parents when they grew old and frail. However, Liu Shan insisted that he drink it now, and he did not dare to refuse.
In this era, witchcraft is rampant, and people generally adhere to the belief that it is better to trust in its existence than to doubt it.
Just when everyone thought Liu Shan was about to say something, his figure suddenly swayed, and with a loud bang, he fell directly to the ground, startling Zhuge Qiao so much that he shivered in shock
If cursing them out were effective, my father would have already gone to their doors and verbally attacked them one by one
After Liu Bei occupied Yizhou, he demonstrated his goodwill by actively employing the gentry of Yizhou, providing them with generous待遇, and hoping they would become his strong supporters
I see, it is truly marvelous
These descendants of noble families have never witnessed such a spectacle; they could never have imagined that there would be such a tumultuous and violent substance within this jar
Everyone looked at each other, and upon seeing Liu Shan's clear eyes, which did not resemble those of a madman, they were all puzzled about what scheme he was concocting.
The broad-faced man was struck, causing blood to gush from his nose. He painfully covered his mouth and nose, letting out a helpless bitter laugh, and said:
Although this canister is red, its surface is remarkably smooth, unlike other mineral pigment layers that have developed some unevenness
Zhuge Qiao originally intended to support Liu Shan, but now he found himself at a loss, standing there helplessly, and said with a bitter smile
He first slightly raised his head to look at the blazing sun above, then slowly lowered it to gaze ahead, causing the young scions of noble families who were lined up in formation to involuntarily shiver
Nonsense, Champion Hou only took the field at 16, what difference is there between 12-year-old Liu Shan training troops and children playing in the mud
Zhuge Qiao was completely baffled, yet he did not dare to disobey
Iron can
Zhuge Qiao, go to Liu Shan's room and fetch some iron cans
His nosebleed had somewhat stopped, and under the sympathetic gaze of his companions, he picked up the iron can and examined it closely, but his expression immediately became serious
Before long, Zhuge Qiao returned, panting and carrying a box of iron cans
The sentence was caught off guard and was hit directly by the spray
Had he known this earlier, he should have communicated with Liu Shan in advance to prevent this young noble from having an emotional outburst and doing something irrational
Ju Fu is a member of a prominent family in Brazil, living in luxury and having encountered many extraordinary items. However, the moment he held this "iron can," he immediately felt that it was certainly not of this world
He excitedly blurted out, seeing the turbulent flow in the jar calm down, mustering his courage to gulp it down, only to let out a belch of murky air.
Young master, this ... ...
Only after receiving Yang Hong's firm response did he express that Yang Hong would act as the agent for the governor of Shu Commandery and urged him to promptly apprehend individuals
Oh. The sentence carefully extended its hand, gently touching, and indeed the pull ring slightly lifted up.
Those iron cans are the treasured gifts I bestowed upon Liu Shan; you may take them.
What is this
He cautiously pinched the can, only to find that it was neither metal nor iron; with just a slight application of force, it immediately dented, yet the surface remained completely unbroken, truly astonishing.
This item is merely an ordinary product of heaven and earth, fortunate to have the opportunity to enjoy it, why not drink it now
Liu Shan's mind had already raced through a hundred thoughts; he let out a cold laugh and slowly took two steps forward
Liu Shan nodded slightly, slowly extended his hand to take out an iron can, weighed it in his hand, and suddenly threw the can high into the crowd with force, exclaiming:
Such trivial matters, he naturally did not dare to ask Haotian any further, and could only cast a pleading glance at the people around him with a bitter smile
Little did Liu Shan expect that such a terrifying thing was contained within this jar. Had he not been sitting cross-legged, he would have surely jumped up in fright.
However, Liu Shan is still young and the son of Liu Bei, so it is not unacceptable for him to play around a bit
The term "God" has already appeared in oracle bone inscriptions
"Gentlemen, are you still waiting for your esteemed presence? If today is free of matters, why not each take the opportunity to practice a bit?"
Liu Shan felt secretly pleased in his heart, yet his face remained calm and unperturbed.
May the Heavenly Emperor show mercy and accept this divine power
Unfortunately, nothing extraordinary occurred; the iron can made a perfectly ordinary arc and struck heavily against the face of a tall, broad-faced man, causing him to cover his face and let out a painful scream, nearly toppling over backwards
Why is this iron as thin as a cicada's wing?
There is a small ring at the round cover, which can be tried.
Good, truly delicious, this item is indeed marvelous
Liu Shan suppressed his embarrassment and slowly sighed
This iron can alone is certainly not something that can be made by human hands. At this moment, who would dare not to believe Liu Shan's words? Without regard for the pain, I hurriedly knelt down in worship.
Young master, it has been brought.
This is a rare treasure bestowed by nature, granted to you by heaven. Consuming it may extend your life by one month
He smiled faintly and said
Most people think that this is just a child playing around, watching Liu Shan's performance with a half-smile, half-amused expression
With my true energy, I unite with the creation of heaven and earth
Upon reaching this point, the crowd that had just been waiting to see the jokes of Liu Shan suddenly all bowed down in unison, repeatedly knocking their heads in reverence
Seeing the disheveled and bewildered appearance of the wolf with a face full of black water, Liu Shan asked nervously
However, after Liu Shan brought back this box of items, he did not feel the coolness that he had experienced during the ice application. He thought there might be some issue, and out of caution, he did not attempt to open it.
The canister is so exquisite, it surely contains something valuable inside
Seeing Liu Shan suddenly refer to himself as the Supreme Deity Haotian, although everyone felt it was absurd, no one dared to step forward to correct him at that moment
However, the charlatans are everywhere in Yizhou, and Liu Shan's acting skills are still quite distant compared to those of those con artists
He respectfully placed the box in front of Liu Shan, gazing at the neatly arranged peculiar red iron cans inside, and gradually felt a hint of suspicion in his heart
Zhuge Qiao also discovered the marvel of that "iron can". He stretched his neck to look over, and cautiously glanced at Liu Shan, who was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, instinctively taking a few steps back to the side.
During this expedition of Liu Bei, the prominent figure Zhang Yu from Yizhou frequently made sarcastic remarks about Liu Bei's actions, declaring that Liu Bei would surely be defeated. Other families in Yizhou were also waiting to witness Liu Bei's great defeat, eagerly preparing to welcome the imperial forces with food and drink.
Thus, the gentry of Yizhou superficially collaborated closely with Liu Bei, yet on many important issues, they either put in minimal effort or subtly undermined Liu Bei, preparing to watch him make a fool of himself
The small aristocratic families could not withstand Zhuge Liang and Yang Hong, and were also concerned that Liu Bei would return to kill, so they could only hold their noses and send all their young members to the battlefield
Thank you, thank you for the grace bestowed by Haotian
However, at this time, Liu Bei's foundation remained unstable, and he could be uprooted by Cao Cao at any moment, losing everything.
How can there be such... such a delicious thing in the world
The disciple is supported, the disciple is supported yet has eyes but cannot see the jewels, a thousand thanks to God for the bestowed treasures
This ... ...
Previously, Zhuge Liang inquired about Yang Hong's military deployment, not because he did not wish to support Liu Bei, who was embroiled in a bitter struggle in Hanzhong, but rather out of concern that the people of Shu might take the opportunity to create disturbances
The sentence was filled with excitement; he solemnly held the jar in his hand, and with a strong pull of his index finger, there was a loud bang, and a jet of ink dragon burst forth.
Oh dear
He hurriedly went up to support Liu Shan, but before he could get close, Liu Shan had already quickly risen and sat cross-legged on the ground.
Zhuge Qiao saw Liu Shan's face alternating between green and white, and he secretly regretted it in his heart
Liu Shan's awkwardness in front of the crowd made Jun Fu completely disbelieve that he was a celestial being descended to the mortal realm
What should be done
Liu Shan, sitting cross-legged on the ground, wore a cold and solemn expression, exuding a strange aura from his entire being
However, he ultimately calmed down
However, these families that possess vast lands and production tools are not ones that Zhuge Liang can provoke. After all, their direct descendants are only a few, which does not significantly impact the larger issues. It would be better to organize them all to entertain Liu Shan, which can also serve as an explanation to the outside world
As for whether Liu Shan is playing
What is the use of doing something that even a father cannot accomplish
Liu Shan : ... ...
Young Master
Zhuge Qiao stepped forward quickly, pondered for a moment, and said
I am the Supreme Deity of Heaven. Today, seeing such a fine moment, I have specially borrowed the body of Liu Shan to descend to the mortal realm for a visit
Moreover, the body of this can is crafted in such a way that there is not the slightest gap; after observing it for a long time, Ju Fu could not find where the cap was located
Liu Shan smiled and said
Liu Shan's voice was clear and resonant, and upon seeing the red iron can soaring through the sky, everyone dumbfoundedly looked up, thinking that in the next moment, this iron can would explode in the sky, transforming into some strange object
Young master, what is this
This item is stored in the internet café's warehouse alongside instant noodles, and it seems to contain some kind of drinkable substance, which should... it should taste quite good
Thank you very much for your generous gift, my lord
Ju Fu was left bewildered after being scolded. Upon seeing the inquiry from the Heavenly Emperor Haotian, he licked his lips and immediately widened his eyes
This is where Zhuge Liang's high emotional intelligence lies
