Chapter 56 [Double Update] Don’t even think about escaping. I only want one bite…

It was still dark, the moon was half hanging in the sky, and deep, rich chanting sounds rang out in the silent city of smoke and clouds.

Supported by Chuntao, Qin Yuqing walked through the crowd and came to the bottom of the altar with an expressionless face.

This time was different from the situation in the capital. She was no longer the evil woman who brought chaos to the court. The people did not shout and kill her, nor did they look at her with hatred.

"This is the Sixth Princess. She really looks like a goddess descended to earth."

"This is the one chosen by the mountain god himself. She is a true goddess. I really don't know what those people in the capital are thinking!"

"In my opinion, those people in the capital are blinded by greed. They don't cherish such a good Sixth Princess."

Listening to the words of the people in Yanyun City, Qin Yuqing was actually in a trance for a moment. She had always known that the moment she decided to participate in the imperial examination, she was ready to bear the unwarranted infamy, but here, the people did not call her a sorcerer or a witch.

She's actually a little uncomfortable?

Qin Yuqing lowered her head and laughed at herself. How come she couldn't get used to being recognized by others? Could it be that she had developed a masochistic constitution?

As the chanting became louder and louder, the moon quietly set behind the mountain, and the sun climbed up the mountain little by little.

As the blue-green color of the horizon was gradually replaced by warm yellow, the outline of the sun appeared on the edge of the mountain, and warm sunlight began to spread on the snow-capped mountains.

"The mountain spirit is above, watching over the earth below. All living things possess spirits, bringing down sweet winds and rains."

Qin Yuqing listened to everyone's chanting, and under Shen Yanqing's instructions, he walked towards the altar with a longbow in his hand and a determined look.

"Peace and tranquility, worship the God of the Snow Mountain."

This time, Yanyun City is facing the snow-capped mountains that have protected them for hundreds and thousands of years, rather than the snow-capped mountains that caused the disaster.

The moment Qin Yuqing stepped onto the stairs, sunlight shone behind her, lighting up the way forward.

At this time, the mountain god suddenly appeared on the altar, holding a lotus in his hand and looking indifferently at everyone in Yanyun City.

"It's the Mountain God! The Mountain God has come to the world! Meet the Mountain God!"

Everyone in Yanyun City knelt down, their foreheads pressed to the ground, not daring to look directly at the face of the mountain god.

Shen Yanqing did not expect that the mountain god would come this time. According to the records of her ancestors, there were indeed cases where the mountain god came during the worship of the mountain god, but the possibility was extremely rare. At least her father and grandfather had never encountered it.

When she saw her father and grandfather, she showed off a lot, because she saw the mountain god coming!

"Qin Yuqing, the man of destiny." The mountain god lowered his eyes to look at Qin Yuqing on the steps and said, "The guardian of the southern part is Lingyuan, the mountain god of the snow mountain. I respectfully welcome the man of destiny back to his position."

What was going on? Qin Yuqing was confused, but her face showed no emotion. In fact, after the incident on the snowy mountain was over, she wanted to ask the mountain god what the Southern Guardian God's return meant. Unfortunately, the mountain god didn't give her the opportunity to ask.

And now, the mountain god appears again on the altar and in front of the human beings in the world.

He was a god blessed by nature, born in this world, and he would not do anything that violated the laws of the world. Just like when he told those strange invaders in the snowy mountains, the laws of heaven run their course and cannot be violated.

So his appearance here, in front of the people of Yanyun City, must have his own reasons.

Qin Yuqing's head was in a mess when she climbed the stairs. Things happened too suddenly. At this time, an emotionless voice sounded in Qin Yuqing's head.

"When you have traveled through all the mountains and rivers of Dayin, you will know everything." The mountain god did not open his mouth to speak, but his voice was directly transmitted into Qin Yuqing's mind.

Qin Yuqing nodded. There were more and more mysteries in this world, but she understood one thing: the most important thing was to complete the tasks issued by the system.

In fact, no matter what changes happen to this world, even if many people or things in it shift, they can all be counted as tasks to change the plot of the original book.

Only when the plot changes, and the people and things at key points change, will the world change. Only when she is recognized by more people can she become the empress.

Now it seems that the plot is not mentioned in the original book, but if you think about it carefully, whether it is the south or the west, isn’t it everything that Yu Bingyan experienced in the original book, and it is something only he knows.

Perhaps in the original setting of the original book, what Yu Bingyan did should have been done by the heroine of the original book, but he used some method to turn the heroine of the original book into the appearance of the subsequent plot, and took away everything that belonged to the heroine of the original book.

So now Qin Yuqing is trying to find the original heroine bit by bit and change the plot of the original book that has been maliciously modified.

Of course, the existence of the system is questionable, but it will certainly not harm itself.

"Stretch out your hand." The mountain god interrupted Qin Yuqing's thoughts.

Qin Yuqing didn't understand but did as she was told. She reached out to catch the lotus. The faint scent of the lotus made her feel comfortable all over.

The mountain god looked down at Qin Yuqing, with light flickering between his fingers. He touched Qin Yuqing's forehead with his finger and then said something obscure but inexplicably sounded sacred.

Qin Yuqing only felt her body bathed in the warm sun, and the fatigue from lack of sleep was soothed away.

Immediately afterwards, a blue stone appeared in the hand of the mountain god. The stone floated in the air, kept getting smaller, and finally merged into Qin Yuqing's forehead.

The next moment, the colorful lotus appeared on Qin Yuqing's forehead again. The sun shone on Qin Yuqing, and a blue-gold light flowed in her eyes.

"Draw your bow and arrow, and pray for the shooting ceremony." The mountain god said as he followed the blessing process. A translucent white arrow appeared in his hand and handed it to Qin Yuqing. He pointed to a place on the snowy mountain and said, "Look here."

Qin Yuqing nodded, raised the longbow with one hand, took the mountain god's arrow, looked into the distance with a firm gaze, put the arrow on the string, and pulled it higher and higher until it reached the limit of the longbow.

The moment Qin Yuqing loosened her fingers, the arrow flew off the string and disappeared in an instant, leaving only blue-gold, snowflake-like fragments that floated in the wind and landed on every body at the scene.

The crowd became agitated. The moment the fragments entered their bodies, they felt much lighter. Feeling the changes in their bodies, they became more certain that the Sixth Princess was the one destined by heaven, worthy of being the one chosen by the goddess.

The mountain god carefully felt the arrow's landing point, nodded with satisfaction, looked at the lotus on Qin Yuqing's forehead and said, "The ceremony is over. I have something else to do. Goodbye."

This time, the mountain god saluted Qin Yuqing and his figure quickly disappeared from the spot.

Everyone kowtowed and knelt to worship the mountain god, only Qin Yuqing stood there with a longbow in his hand, looking at the snow-capped mountains with a complicated expression.

It was because the mountain god sent a message to her saying: "The directions are reversed, the south has returned to its place, and I will work with the east to maintain the operation of the heavenly way."

According to what the mountain god said, there is a god in every direction of the world. Before she came, only the god in the east was still struggling. In fact, the answer to who did all this already exists.

Yu Bingyan, what exactly did you do in the original book world and this world, and what results do you want to achieve?

Shen Yanqing walked forward, patted the dazed Qin Yuqing, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Qin Yuqing shook his head: "Should we order Holy Snow next?"

"No need, it's already been ordered." Shen Yanqing covered his face with his hands. "The fragments that fell when you shot the arrow just now are the real holy snow. The holy snow we prepared is no longer needed."

"It's okay, I have a way." Qin Yuqing raised the longbow in her hand and looked at the people under the altar with cold eyes. She spoke in the tone and expression of the mountain god.

"The mountain god has issued an order. Where is the doctor in the city?"

Shen Yanqing put his hands behind his back and gestured to General Xiao, and then the doctors who had been prepared in advance appeared and they knelt down.

"The new holy snow has been lit. To prevent any discomfort, we would like to ask the doctors to examine your health today. Please stay where you are and wait for the examination."

Upon hearing this, most of the people below bowed to Qin Yuqing with gratitude. Everyone lined up very consciously and no one left.

Qin Yuqing and Shen Yanqing looked at each other. She stood high on the altar and placed the prepared quiver at her side. Shen Yanqing walked down the altar and gave instructions to the soldiers.

Sure enough, when people saw soldiers registering, many of them began to whisper, especially when they saw that they had to expose their arms for inspection, some people in the crowd slowly stepped back.

Qin Yuqing curled her lips and smiled slightly. Can't hold it back anymore?

She drew her bow and arrow in one go, shooting directly at the person who was trying to leave from the corner.

The soldier immediately went over and held the man down, pinning him to the spot.

The people looked over with confusion, their eyes filled with confusion: "What are you doing?"

"Why are you leaving?" Qin Yuqing tilted his head and smiled faintly, arrows once again nocking on the longbow, "What? Are you hiding something?"

The soldier lifted up the man's sleeve, and sure enough, there was the totem of Alhan on his arm.

"These are Alhan's people! Why are Alhan's people here?" Someone in the crowd recognized them.

The next moment, Alhan, who was mixed in the crowd, took out a dagger, took the people from Yanyun City hostage, and looked fiercely at Qin Yuqing on the altar.

"Let us go! Or kill them!"

"Sorry." As Qin Yuqing's voice fell, Park Qinghe and Chuntao appeared beside Alhan's men and quickly broke Alhan's arm.

Qin Yuqing smiled gently: "Threats are useless."

"Protect the people of Yanyun City to evacuate. None of the Alhan people who came here today are allowed to escape." Shen Yanqing drew his sword and rushed in.

The longbow in Qin Yuqing's hand was fast, accurate and fierce. Almost at the moment the string was drawn, the arrow flew off the string and shot into Alhan's limbs. The force was so great that it nailed the man to the ground.

Are you kidding? This is a special longbow, and the arrow is also special. Not to mention penetrating human bones, it won't even be afraid of a piece of iron.

Qin Yuqing couldn't help but sigh that the cold weapon technology of this era was really amazing.

"No one is allowed to leave." Qin Yuqing's eyes darkened. She looked at the trembling little deer hiding behind her. The little deer came behind her from the moment the inspection began.

Qin Yuqing said coldly, "I just want the person to be alive. As for the method, it's up to you."

But even if Shen Yanqing had made preparations in advance, there were too many people coming. Several of Alhan's men broke through the soldiers' defense line and rushed towards Qin Yuqing and Xiaolu.

"I just want you to die!" the Alhan roared.

Qin Yuqing pulled the deer behind him, raised the longbow in his hand to block Alhan's sword, turned his wrist, and the longbow and the man moved closer to the Alhan along the longsword. Qin Yuqing kicked him, then quickly put an arrow on the side and fired three arrows at the three people close to the deer.

"Want to touch her?" Qin Yuqing's fox eyes were full of murderous intent. She originally thought that the Alhan people came to kill her because the goddess was taken away by her and they wanted to take their god home.

But now it seems that these people are here to kill the deer.

In that case, there's no need to show mercy.

"Are you worthy enough?"

The blood splashed onto the lotus on Qin Yuqing's forehead, turning it blood red.
