Chapter 994 6. Ji Zhao wakes up
Ji Zhao didn't remember how long he had been asleep.
When he woke up, the reality was five hundred years, but what he had experienced was much more than five hundred years.
"it's all over."
This was Ji Zhao’s first words after waking up.
His eyes penetrated everything, and the rules of the world swam before him.
More than two hundred years ago, the Luo family had used countless blood to break free from the shackles of heaven. The only thing that limited them this time was the imperial luck. But with Ji Zhao waking up, the imperial luck was no longer anything.
Ji Zhao waved his hand and took out a substance between reality and illusion from his body. "Sure enough, this is the system."
"Congratulations, Master, for achieving the highest level of success, turning the virtual into the real, and becoming the master of a world. You were born with the thoughts of countless people, and you will achieve the greatest feat in this world. Congratulations to the Master."
The sound of the system is still full of mechanical sounds. From Ji Zhao's current perspective, the system is like a modifier, or more like a manager. It can completely manage the world, wind, frost, rain, snow, and everything, the birth and death of stars, and he can modify these things.
"Add another 500 years of imperial luck to the family."
Ji Zhao said.
"I will obey your orders, Master."
System reply.
"The Luo family has been blessed with a thousand years of imperial luck. They can become an empire at any time without having to worry about the main quest failing due to extinction of the family line."
Ji Zhao smiled. The system was really persistent. Until now, it still wanted him to complete the three thousand year family mission.
"Honorable Master, according to the system description, the three thousand years of mission will only benefit you, not harm you. After the change, it will also bring huge benefits, even covering the entire Luo family and the entire world."
The system has no emotions, but it will also give reminders. Upon hearing this, Ji Zhao once again turned his gaze to the system in his hand and kneaded it slightly. Many artifacts underwent tremendous changes.
In fact, this change should have happened long ago. After all, the Luo family has survived for the second millennium and completed another major task. Ji Zhao's ability to replace Tianzhu so quickly is inseparable from the success of the Luo family.
"With these upgraded artifacts, the Luo family is already invincible. There is nothing to worry about the rest. Playing with people's hearts and holding power are what the Luo family is good at."
After Ji Zhao modified the artifacts, Luo Chengyun immediately received the news. When he saw the effects of those artifacts, he might have been thinking, "Who else?"
Even a calm person like him would have such thoughts, naturally because the reward for the second millennium is too great!
The first millennium allowed the Luo family to stand at the top of the world.
The second millennium allowed the Luo family to stand above the human world and become a demigod clan!
It is no exaggeration to say that they are demigods. First of all, the item of God of Four Seasons has been greatly strengthened. Once the Luo family becomes a royal family, the luck points they obtain every day are enormous, and there is almost no consumption for this artifact. In other words, a god who can control the weather will really appear in the Luo family.
The evolution of Yuan Ding is also extremely outrageous. It was originally a reset artifact, but Ji Zhao felt from the beginning that Yuan Ding was particularly like Qian Kun Ding, returning to its original state. Now this Ding can actually change materials at will. Whoever gets this Ding becomes the God of Materials, able to destroy and create.
The Peach Blossom Spring really became the Peach Blossom Spring, a large alien space where the Luo family and anyone recognized by the Luo family could enter and live.
And so on.
In fact, with the Peach Blossom Spring and the God of the Four Seasons, the Luo family is invincible at all times.
This invincible position means that Luo cannot be killed, so Luo only needs to concentrate on fighting politically.
This is equivalent to the fact that the Luo family can overturn the table at any time and launch a purge of the official system, but they do not have to worry about chaos in the world, because if they want to fight, the Luo family cannot use the magic weapon. After all, they cannot send millions of people in a city to death just to kill one or two corrupt officials.
But if someone rebels, the God of Four Seasons, a weapon of mass destruction equivalent to a non-contaminated nuclear bomb, can destroy the enemy's army in an instant.
After studying the artifact, Luo Chengyun wanted to hold back his laughter, but he really couldn't help it and finally burst into laughter.
This abnormal behavior naturally attracted the attention of those around him, who couldn't help but ask, "Master, what good news is going on? Tell us so that we can be happy too. Is it right not to share happy things?"
Luo Chengyun waved his hand and said after a moment of hesitation: "The Su King will soon awaken and grant us the Luo family holiness, so I don't want to be hypocritical with these servile people any longer."
When King Su was not around, I tolerated you for the sake of my future. Now that King Su is back, if I still tolerate you, King Su can't afford to lose face!
Although it is important that the artifact becomes more powerful, nothing can compare to the news that the Su Wang has returned. Everyone was sitting down, but upon hearing the news, they immediately jumped up from their chairs and said excitedly, "Is the Su Wang ancestor really back?
Did the Patriarch get the news from the ancestor Luoshen?"
Luo Chengyun shook his head and said, "This is the news directly sent by the ancestor Su Wang. There is absolutely no mistake. Su Wang said that he will return to the earth at the right time, come to the Luo family, and return to Zhaocheng."
The news one after another shocked everyone so much that they could hardly recover.
When he came to his senses, he saw the head of the family, Luo Chengyun, striding out.
Someone asked anxiously, "Master, where are you going?"
"On such an important day, we should go to the ancestral temple to burn incense!"
Upon hearing this, everyone just followed him and rushed out, heading towards the Luo family's ancestral temple.
…
After the new school members left Luo's house, the second prime minister's face was covered with frost. No one else dared to speak. After a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and said slowly: "Luo's house is really too much."
Several of the companions recalled what Luo Chengyun had said, "You used the people to defeat the emperor, but in the end you betrayed them. How shameless!
You are here accusing my Luo family of not contributing to the country, trying to stand on the moral high ground. You say that my Luo family is the defender of the old royal era.
Then let me tell you, our Luo family has always followed the orders of our ancestors. Two thousand years ago, our ancestor Su Wang established the human-oriented thinking, so we have always been fighting for the world.
But in the final analysis, our Luo family follows the will of heaven and the will of man!"
The four words "Follow Heaven and respond to people" shocked them greatly, because the power of these four words was different in different eras. If it was in the past, such as the Zhou Dynasty or even earlier, or in the Han Dynasty, the existence of heaven was undisputed.
At that time, people's reverence for heaven reached its peak, and they revered heaven almost everywhere.
But this is no longer the case. The role of humans has been increasingly emphasized, especially since the Luo family began preparing to move north. After so many years, the sky is no longer out of reach.
Otherwise, there would not be a political party like the New Learning Party.
Luo hasn't said anything like "following the will of heaven and responding to the will of people" for many years. How can people not be frightened when he suddenly brings it up?
The fears that had been deliberately suppressed gradually surfaced in my heart again.
"Second Prime Minister, what did Luo Chengyun mean by those last words? Could it be that the Luo family has made some new discoveries about the legendary ancestor Su Wang..."
The second prime minister immediately said coldly: "Don't scare yourself! The holiness of the Su Wang must be fake... right?"
Their guess was indeed very accurate. Many people in the Luo family could not receive news from Ji Zhao before, so they changed from heaven to man. This is the ability to change according to the situation.
Now knowing that Su Wang has reappeared after nearly a thousand years, he has naturally rapidly transformed from a human to a god. This is Ji Zhao's absolute and incomparable influence on the Luo family!
No matter whether they had thought about taking revenge in Luo's Mansion before, the reality was that they had no chance for the time being!
As the former world center, Central Plains was extremely dependent on raw materials from various regions of the world. Once these supporting measures were lost, a torrent of backlash would come. After falling out with the Luo family, the government quickly began to take action against the Luo family's bank, and on the grounds that the Luo family's bank manipulated the economy, tried to take it over to the government in accordance with the law.
To some extent, it can be said to be reasonable and well-founded. After all, all power in the country belongs to the ruling government, and the government has unlimited power. This has been the tradition of the Chinese nation since ancient times, and the same is true for the New School Party government.
Luo's didn't think of a hard cap. According to Luo Chengyun, "If you want to destroy them, you must first make them crazy. They think that Luo's bank is running well, but when they see the future, they will know what self-destruction means."
The chain reaction caused by the New School Party government's crackdown on Luo's Money House was beyond everyone's expectations and directly led to a great panic. A great economic exodus occurred in a short period of time.
Other money houses suffered massive runs in a short period of time because Rocky Bank was a benchmark. If Rocky Bank had problems, other money houses were more likely to have problems.
If there is no problem with Luo's Money House, it means that the government has gone crazy. They actually tried to touch Luo's Money House. If the government doesn't die, it will be miserable. Ordinary people are still one step slower. Those high-ranking officials run the fastest. Although they are officials in the Central Plains, they can take money out of Luo's Money House in the Central Plains and then deposit it in Luo's Money Houses in other regions.
Although they also secretly cast a vote against Luo's in the Central Plains, they had to do so for political reasons. Deep down, they believed in Luo's credit and believed that as long as the contract was signed, Luo would not break it.
At the initiative of the Luo family, and with the help of a group of dignitaries who nominally supported the government but actually helped the Luo family to flee with their funds, the Luo family's money bank left its empty shell in the Central Plains and then headed to other regions.
Having come this far, the next thing to do is to wait.
Everyone is waiting for the largest, most populous, most economically prosperous, most civilized, and most developed region in the world - Central Plains!
What will happen and how will they deal with it? This may serve as a learning specimen for them in the future.
Perhaps the only pity is the ordinary people. In this great era, some are destined to become rolling dust under the wheel of history!
What is even more infuriating is that it was they who lifted these people up with their own hands, otherwise the emperor would not have felt so extremely frightened and even thought about abdicating.
…
"Master, there is a rumor circulating in Luoyang City recently that a steamed bun costs five thousand coins. Now it can be said that the economy of the New Learning Party government has completely collapsed. If the next rescue is unsuccessful, the rule of this government can be declared over."
“That’s fast.”
Luo Chengyun's tone was filled with endless emotion, as if to say, "I haven't even tried my best, and you've fallen down."
It's really too fast.
It's only been a few years and it's already like this.
When the emperor abdicated, although I was not optimistic, I felt that he could at least hold on for a few decades.
Although this is related to the general trend of the times, it is also related to the poor governing ability of this government and the poor composition of the ruling class. This is a class that is even more corrupt and backward than the imperial system of the Tang Dynasty. After all, even the Tang Dynasty did not return to the era of aristocratic families, and as a result, such a so-called advanced government without an emperor was able to achieve this.
"The head of the family."
Just as Luo Chengyun was sighing, a housekeeper walked in from outside.
"Master, there are guests from Yingzhou Island who want to visit you."
