"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Chancellor Su Xu bowed respectfully.
"Shh." Wu Xiao gestured for him to keep his voice down.
Every time I come, it's as if I'm afraid others won't know.
She reached out and handed him a Sumeru ring, which was filled with the things she had just bought. She and the two women had bought him a lot of things, including food, clothes, various gifts, weapons, and so on.
Zhongxiang Su Xu didn't want it; he had the money to buy it himself. But Wu Xiao still gave it to him as a token of his appreciation.
Of the three great ministers, the one who suffers the most is the Central Minister. It's not that his work is hard, but that he can't go home. He guards this place year-round and takes charge of the overall situation here.
Wu Xiao asked, "How is it now? Is there any unusual activity in the sea?"
“Let’s go up to the city wall and talk.”
Zhongxiang Su Xu led her to the high city wall, where the wind was strong, making her black hair and clothes rustle.
He reported on recent developments, saying that there were no unusual movements in the sea for the time being, but the surface of the sea was becoming increasingly strange, with more and more dark things appearing.
Perhaps one day in the future, these dark things may invade Dongsheng.
"Your Majesty, your idea is truly brilliant. This city wall that runs from north to south is useful. It can keep all these illusions out and form a man-made ancestral dragon feng shui pattern."
"This idea wasn't mine; it was my mother-in-law's idea. When the incident happened and the void invaded, she gave me the design drawings for the Great Wall."
My mother-in-law gave me a map of the Great Wall, which I later modified to become a map of the Great Wall of Hundreds of Millions of Miles. The materials used were stacked with the Fallen God Stones from the forbidden land of the Ten Thousand Mountains; unexpectedly, it could even block the void.
The formidable one wasn't her, but her mother-in-law.
It has to be said that the village chief is quite something, but what's strange is that she has never left the Great Martial God Dynasty, so how does she know that there is a Fallen God Stone in the Forbidden Land of the Ten Thousand Mountains?
Did she come up with this concept design?
The person who drew this diagram must understand feng shui principles.
The village chief's wife didn't understand feng shui; she only knew how to practice swordsmanship. The Tian Ce Immortal Sect and the Xing Hai Divine Dynasty of Zu Zhou Dong Sheng did understand feng shui, but they couldn't possibly have come up with the ancestral dragon pattern of the Great Wall.
Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about it.
"May Your Majesty tell me about the concept behind the Great Wall, which stretches for hundreds of millions of miles?"
"I don't really understand. I just changed the Great Wall of China to the Great Wall of Hundreds of Millions of Miles. If you're interested, I'll ask the village chief's wife during the New Year and have her organize it for you and send it to you then."
"That would be best, thank you very much." Zhongxiang Su Xu bowed in thanks, when suddenly he saw a sentence floating in front of Wu Xiao's eyes, saying, "Actually, I know the design and feng shui layout of the Great Wall."
In terms of feng shui and divination, he felt that no one in Zuzhou Dongsheng was more knowledgeable than him, unless someone obtained the complete "Dragon Armor Divine Chapter," which was obviously impossible.
The Grand Chancellor was not surprised, because the Empress, the Left Chancellor, and the Right Chancellor all remained calm and asked, "Who is this?"
"I was just about to introduce him to you. His name is Li Ming."
"I've heard of it."
Zhong Xiang naturally knew this legendary figure, who was also the most mysterious person by Wu Xiao's side.
This character proved invaluable in crucial moments, such as single-handedly crushing two million barren mountains, saving the Empress from danger on numerous occasions, and also saving the country multiple times.
The only pity is that, it is said, he has never shown his face. He really knows how to hide.
"Greetings, Senior Li," the Prime Minister said respectfully.
“His name is Li Ming.” Wu Xiao said with a dark face. “Damn it, you’ve made him sound old.”
Clearly, Zhong Xiang didn't notice Wu Xiao's point, and Li Ming didn't care either. The two of them started chatting about the Great Wall, leaving her standing aside.
"It's actually very simple. This is a dragon. The dragon's head is the pen, the dragon's tail is the nest, the dragon's tail is the seal, and the middle part is the coiled dragon body, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon... You have Wu Xiao go a little further away. You put a big piece of white paper on the ground and I will draw it for you and analyze the feng shui pattern point by point."
Wu Xiao rolled her eyes, then stepped back with the Left and Right Prime Ministers and strolled along the Great Wall, enjoying the breeze.
Several hours later, Wu Xiao and the two women returned and saw the old man still squatting on the ground, his hands and face covered in black ink, muttering to himself, clearly discussing something with Li Ming.
Wu Xiao walked closer and saw that the ground was covered with notes.
Wu Xiao approached, but Su Xu didn't notice, too engrossed in his question, and continued:
"Senior Li, why is it necessary to use the Fallen God Stone from the Ten Thousand Mountains to resist the void?"
Li Ming asked, "What is nothingness?"
Zhong Xiang Su Xu said: "Illusory, not very realistic, it looks like it exists, but it doesn't. That's the original definition of nothingness. It's ethereal and illusory, seemingly not existing, like something you can't touch or hit."
This is nothingness.
It is what this Great Wall, stretching for hundreds of millions of miles, has blocked, and it is also what was born in the seas ahead.
To this day, they still don't know what this thing is; they only know that it can devour life.
Soon, Su Xu saw a line of text floating out of the space.
"All things in the Tao begin in chaos and return to nothingness."
This is the text that Li Ming transmitted. The nothingness born in the sea outside the Great Wall is like this. This thing is very strange. It is both formless and tangible.
There is currently no way to deal with it; the only option is to use the Fallen God Stone to defend against it.
"The Ten Thousand Mountains are a forbidden land that fell from the sky. The Fallen God Stones inside are stained with the blood of gods, or are stones formed from the fall of gods. After the gods fall, they return to nothingness, which means there is nothing left."
Therefore, the best way to deal with nothingness is nothingness itself, and the Fallen God Stone is nothingness.
"I see."
Zhongxiang Su Xu suddenly realized, and even Wu Xiao understood. So that's how it is. There's a lot of knowledge involved here.
