Chapter 582 Street Light at No. 414 Zhuque Street (First update, please vote)
The warm wind blows from the east, the sun sets, and it is almost dinner time. The smoke from cooking in the Taichu Capital (Fire Capital) is a beautiful scene.
For three years after the God of Fire became a god and changed his name to Taichu, the power of heaven and earth has been hanging on the altar of the Taichu Capital. Three years later, it suddenly disappeared one day, and the snow and wind also left.
No one knows why the remnant consciousness of the saint stopped the ice age, but it doesn’t matter. Without the snow and wind, the development of the Taichu Alliance will only be better.
It has only been a few years, and the Taichu Capital has become extremely lively.
Before the sun set, a spiritual light suddenly shot out from the top of the altar, and several of them fell into Suzaku Square. Then this beam of light exploded and then scattered in countless pieces.
One of the beams of light fell on the totem stone on a wooden chandelier on Suzaku Street. The light entered the totem stone and turned into a human body.
This person looked like a young man, wearing a long shirt with wide sleeves, a kind of clothing called Hanfu. The name of this Hanfu naturally comes from Taichu. As for why it is called Hanfu... who knows.
"Reporting from the street light at No. 414 Suzaku Street, handover."
The young man's eyes fell on the chair in the middle of the room, where a girl was sitting. She listened to the young man's words and nodded happily.
"Then I'll leave this to you. I'm going back to the fairyland."
After the young man nodded, her spirit flew away directly, and her body turned into a ball of spirit energy, floating above the chair.
The young man stepped forward and pushed it, and the spirit energy floated to the side. He sat in the room, stretched his body, and
then looked out. At this time, the sun was about to set, but there was still enough light, so he didn't do anything, just looked outside quietly.
From where he looked out, the viewing angle was very high, and he could see almost all the members of the Taichu Alliance on Suzaku Street.
The most people walking on Suzaku Street were couples, because this was the first place to have street lights, and at that time many couples came to watch the night view at night. Gradually, this tradition was retained, which made this place very lively.
Nowadays, the entire Taichu capital is equipped with street lights, but if you ask where is the busiest at night, it is still Suzaku Street, because the night view here is the most beautiful.
After a while, the sun was finally going down, and the sky was getting darker and darker. The young man reached out and pressed a button on the table.
"No. 414 street light on Suzaku Street requests a call. Please reply if you receive it. Please reply if you receive it."
The young man spoke to a microphone on the table, and soon a voice came from the microphone.
"No. 324 street light on Suzaku Street received it."
"No. 325 street light on Suzaku Street received it."
"No. 326 street light on Suzaku Street received it."
...
The voices of replies came one by one, starting from No. 324 Suzaku Street and ending at No. 415 Suzaku Street.
"Everyone, three lights, countdown... 3... 2... 1..."
The young man controlled the totem power and ignited the totem stone he entered with a buzz.
Flames ignited from the totem stone, and at the same time, the street lights on the opposite side and all the street lights on the entire Suzaku Street were also ignited.
"Ah, the street lights are on."
Under the street lights, a girl snuggled in a boy's arms and said happily.
"Yes, only the street lights on Suzaku Street can light up so neatly. You will see that they will become brighter little by little in a while."
The boy showed off his erudition under the street lights, but he didn't know that there was a young totem spirit called Street Light No. 414 Suzaku Street in the street lights who was watching them.
"No. 415 Street Light, Zhuque Street, please have a private conversation."
A voice suddenly came from the receiver in front of the young man. The young man frowned slightly, but he still reached out and tapped on the table.
"Please go through."
Just after the young man finished speaking, a voice came from the receiver.
"414, have you seen the girl below you? Does she look like No. 43, the hot furnace who is pursuing you?"
The young man frowned and said unsatisfiedly: "Don't joke at work, and end the private conversation."
"414, listen to me, she really looks like her, it may be your angle, from my side..."
The voice in the receiver kept chattering, but the young man pressed the button on the table regardless, and the voice was cut off.
Although the connection was disconnected, the young man still couldn't help but look down.
"It really is a bit like it."
The young man murmured, and then he stopped looking at the woman, and kept looking at the sky outside.
Not long after, he called everyone again and ordered to adjust the brightness to five.
"It's brighter, I just saw it get brighter."
The girl said in the boy's arms.
"Yes, this trip is really not in vain. I don't know when we can install street lights in our town."
The boy also looked at the street lights and said.
"It's too early. I heard from my father that there are too few souls in the fairy world. Taichu can't make too many ordinary totems, so we can only wait." The
girl said with regret.
The boy pretended to nod, while reaching out his trembling hand to the girl's waist and gently placed it on it.
The girl's body trembled, and her cheeks immediately flushed.
"Haha."
Seeing this, the street lamp totem spirit at No. 414 Suzaku Street laughed out loud, and at this moment the receiver rang again.
"No. 415 Suzaku Street street lamp requests a private call."
The young man immediately lost his smile. This time he did not answer the call, but instead selected a button and pressed it directly, and the request was cut off.
After waiting for a while, the sky got darker. The young man notified to adjust the brightness again. This time, he adjusted the brightness directly to ten, and the whole Suzaku Street was brightly lit.
The residents who had finished their meals nearby began to go out for a walk, and the two people who were showing their affection below him ran to some darker place.
The young man watched the excitement for a while, then got up and took out a bamboo scroll from the bookshelf behind him.
Spreading out the bamboo scrolls, the young man looked at it carefully, but after a while, a voice came from the receiver again.
"Street light No. 415 Suzaku Street requests a private call."
The young man reached out and hung up the phone directly, but the other end called again. After three times, he pressed the answer button helplessly.
"What for?"
the young man said impatiently.
"What do you think about the thing I told you?"
asked the street light No. 415 Suzaku Street.
"Furnace No. 43? Not interested."
The young man said, and was about to hang up, but a sentence from the other end attracted his attention.
"It's not that. It's about applying for the Immortal Soldier. You are so rigid. Your soul in the previous life may have been a warrior. How about we go together?"
the voice in the microphone asked.
The young man hesitated. He looked at the bamboo slips in his hand. It said [Explanation of the System of Three Provinces and Six Departments], and there was a little hesitation in his eyes.
"You don't really want to enter the Human Palace, do you?"
A surprised question came from the other end.
"Yes."
The young man said without hesitation.
"Stop making trouble. You don't even know the words in your previous life. The Human Palace will never want you. Why don't you come with me to be an Immortal Soldier?"
The voice first denied his idea, and then proposed the idea of going to be an Immortal Soldier together again.
"I'll think about it."
The young man said, and once again disconnected the connection, looking at the bamboo slips with some hesitation.
He was a member of the tribe who died seven years ago. His soul entered the fairyland, but he had almost no memory of his past life. This situation is not uncommon. Most ordinary tribesmen's souls enter the fairyland after death.
Only those outstanding tribesmen have a small amount of past life memories while having consciousness. Such people will almost always be directly transformed into totem spirits by Taichu, and then participate in some important work.
Souls like him who have no memory but only consciousness are only slightly better than those souls who have nothing. They can do some of the most basic jobs, such as becoming a street light totem.
He was the second batch of totems to join the streetlight work, but he reached his current position because of his diligent work attitude, flexible mind and origin of Suzaku City.
Although he is not in charge of all streetlights, he is in charge of the most famous streetlights on Suzaku Street. He may have the opportunity to be in charge of streetlights in the future.
If so, at least he will be a ninth-rank official. Although the road to higher positions will be much more difficult, there is still hope.
But if he becomes an immortal soldier... his efforts over the past few years will be in vain.
Moreover, immortal soldiers may not use totems. He has heard some news that Taichu intends to mold clay into humans in the immortal world and wants to create a pure land for mortals in the immortal world, but it has not succeeded yet.
If they succeed in the future, the immortal soldiers will most likely use such people. After all, if they have a body, they can leave the immortal world, unlike totems, which have many restrictions.
Such immortal soldiers should be more meaningful, but I don't know if they will be immortal or will grow old and die like their tribesmen.
Shaking his head and throwing these thoughts out, Street Light No. 414 decided to study the three-province and six-department system first. If he doesn't understand this, he can forget about becoming a ninth-rank official. He calmed down
and started to read the bamboo slips. Time passed unknowingly and the sky gradually brightened.
There were sounds of passers-by walking outside, some conversations, and the sound of stalls hawking.
Street Light No. 414 began to command all the street lights on Suzaku Street to dim the brightness, and did it three times.
After he turned off all the street lights on Zhuque Street, he yawned and prepared to go to sleep.
The soul that entered the fairyland and was designated as a totem by Taichu is different from the real totem. This kind of totem needs sleep, and if it wants to grow quickly, it must eat the yellow millet grown in the fairyland.
Just when he was about to get up and sleep for a while on the small bed in the back, an old man suddenly walked to the street light opposite and stopped, put his hands on his chest, and prayed to the street light.
Street light No. 414 immediately perked up and pressed a button on the table.
He was asking Street light No. 415 to make a call. The calling equipment was something evolved from the ability of the eighth generation witch. It was said that Taichu changed its usage, which was very convenient. "Hello
? It's so early in the morning and I just went to bed. Is there something wrong?"
After a long time, a lazy voice came from the other end.
"Get ready to absorb the power of faith. Someone is praying to you."
The young man said hurriedly.
"Oh?"
There was a cry of surprise, followed by a series of ping-pong sounds, and then the connection was cut off.
This is also the drawback of the soul totem spirit. One must actively accept prayers in order to obtain the power of faith, otherwise the power of faith in the tribe's prayers cannot be stored.
And they can't get the power of faith. This power is stored in the totem stone and used to light street lamps.
Their essential power is the aura of the fairy world, not the power of faith.
The remaining three chapters today may be sent out later.
