Chapter 999 11. Zhaocheng returns to the world!
Zhaocheng turned into a swamp hundreds of years ago.
Luo Chengyun stood at the edge of the swamp and looked inside. At the end of his sight, all he could see was a large tract of lush forest that blocked out the sun. In the gaps between the trees, a few broken walls were vaguely visible. Those broken walls seemed to be the tops of buildings, or the tips of stone tablets. Beneath those vague structures was a pool of green and dark stagnant water. This was the Zhaocheng Swamp, a place where no living creature could easily set foot.
Luo Chengyun looked at it for a long time before he said with emotion: "It has been eight hundred years since Zhaocheng was submerged by a heavy rain from the sky. Does anyone still remember how prosperous Zhaocheng used to be?"
"The towering palace walls are made of huge stones. The invading enemies were defeated at the foot of the city. Even the invincible army of the Qin Dynasty would have run into a wall here, and the blood shed would never end even after a hundred years.
Clear river water flows around the city. It is an ancient sacred river with sparkling waves that is unforgettable. It provides food for the people and irrigates the fields. Everyone praises it. According to the ancient prophecy, no one will destroy it.
Zhaocheng is infinitely beautiful. Every house is in order and there is no trace of decay or ruins. Whenever winter comes, the owner of the Luo family will bring wine and meat, emitting steaming hot water, to every house to bring warmth to all the people.
The majestic and magnificent Temple of the Philosophers is the place of faith for thousands of scholars. The spirit of the Chinese nation is preserved in it, and the essence of the Chinese nation flows in it. Those who come out of the wilderness will also pick up books and civilization. This is the Temple of the Philosophers.
There is also the original temple, in which Su Wang shines. The most supreme and holy Su Wang blesses all the people who believe in Him here. When you step into Zhaocheng, Su Wang will lower his eyes on you. Praise Su Wang, worship Su Wang. We have never had any other ideas, right here.
Shout, the spirit of the Su Wang is in heaven! "
Too many praises can be given to Zhaocheng. Countless poems have turned Zhaocheng into a symbol. It is like a heavenly palace, carrying all the beautiful fantasies of poets and writers. The legendary land of kings, the legendary world of great harmony, is right in Zhaocheng.
As gorgeous as the poems of praise are, the reality of destruction is as cruel. Countless poets came here to pay tribute, and then wrote countless poems about the ancient Zhaocheng, writing them thoroughly and completely, leaving no way for future generations to write.
Today, Luo Chengyun stood here, with countless classic poems naturally resounding in his mind, but he did not come here to reminisce about them. He came here to - make Zhaocheng reappear in the world!
There were many people who followed him here on their own initiative, but for Luo Chengyun, these people were not enough, so he also invited people from all over the world to come to the Zhaocheng ruins to watch the ceremony.
Before coming here, no one knew what kind of medicine the head of the Luo family was selling, but when the two words "Luo family" and "Zhaocheng" were linked together, it naturally gave people a feeling that something big was happening, so many people came here.
Luo Chengyun and other members of the Luo family camped outside the Zhaocheng ruins, which is a swamp. There were more than a thousand Luo family members who came here. It could be said to be an unprecedented large gathering of the Luo family. At this critical moment, almost all of the direct descendants were present.
If someone wants to wipe out the entire Luo family, now is the best opportunity. However, the Luo family's reckless gathering makes those who have some bad intentions towards the Luo family feel cold in their hearts. As some people secretly said, "The Luo family cannot be unaware that someone wants to deal with them, but they still gather together like this. It's like a spider has already woven a web and is waiting for prey to enter the web. Anyone who takes action at this time would be really stupid."
It just so happened that those who wanted to take action against the Luo family were all "smart" people, and even they were very curious about what the Luo family wanted to do at the Zhaocheng ruins, so the two sides lived in peace, and the days passed one by one, quietly waiting for more and more people to arrive at the Zhaocheng ruins.
Finally one day, hundreds of thousands of people saw a Phoenix flag that seemed to be on fire flying high in the air at the place closest to the swamp. Then hundreds of Phoenix flags rose into the sky in unison, like stars in the sky, or like a blazing flame, illuminating the hearts and eyes of all the people waiting here.
"The Luo family is moving!"
No one knew what Luo was going to do, but in just a moment, the news of Luo's action spread from one side to the other. The people waiting here all looked in the direction of Luo. Everyone was looking forward to knowing what Luo was going to do here at the first time!
Boom boom boom!
The sudden sound of drums rang in everyone's ears, not just from Luo's side, but from all directions. Everyone looked at the drum sounds coming from all directions with some suspicion, and then they found that there were really many people beating the drums. Those people were wearing roughly the same clothes, and it was obvious that they had been organized in advance.
There were so many people like this that basically everyone could hear the drums, and there was a telegraph machine for communication at the sound of each drummer.
The sound of the drums became louder and louder, and then a powerful voice came from the inner circle. The people of the Luo family really began to praise the emperor!
This is Luo's specialty. The fact that they did not start praising the emperor until today has already shocked people. Now, when hearing this hymn, most people can't help but hum along. Except for those with special identities, most of the people who come here are people who have special feelings for Luo.
After the eulogy ended, Luo Chengyun's eyes burst into infinite light. His eyes were brighter than ever before, even brighter than the stars in the sky and the bright moon in the night. Even people who did not know how to read people's expressions could see his joy and happiness at this moment.
When everyone's voices gradually faded away, his voice became higher than most people could reach. He did not roar, he just spoke seriously, but hundreds of thousands of people could hear his voice, which all entered their ears and brains. This shocking scene caused countless commotions, and finally everyone was trembling with fear as to what would happen next.
"Following the ancient prophecy, the descendants of the Luo family raised their flags, crossed the roaring river, crossed the high Taihang Mountains, traveled thousands of miles, crossed thousands of mountains, traveled through time, spent eight hundred years, came to the present era, and shouted to Zhaocheng, which had turned into a swamp.
The most high, holy, supreme, and noble Su Wang, please send down your divine power to turn the swamps into fertile fields, turn the silted pond water into rivers, dissipate the lush forests, make the glorious Zhaocheng reappear in the world, make the ancient times praised by everyone return, make all things in Zhaocheng renewed, and let all believers in the world see your greatness and holiness! "
boom!
Before any real miracle appeared, just these words spoken by Luo Chengyun, the head of the Luo family, were enough to make everyone go crazy.
The atmosphere exploded and everyone couldn't believe what they heard.
"Did I hear it wrong just now? I seemed to hear the head of the Luo family praying to King Su to let Zhaocheng return to the world."
"This is too crazy. How could a city that disappeared for eight hundred years reappear? This is totally unscientific. I absolutely do not believe this is true."
"You haven't heard it clearly. What the Luo family master just said was to make a brand new Zhaocheng appear, to make everything disappear, and then restore it to eight hundred years ago!"
"Is this true? It's not an exaggeration to describe it as a miracle. Could it be that the Supreme Su King has always been paying attention to the human world? Could it be that the Supreme Su King really would send down such divine power to inspire the world?"
"How many generations have been searching for the sacred secret of the Su Wang? Could it be that he is going to appear before us today?"
Countless voices were communicating, and their emotions were so complex that even those who were most capable of distinguishing them could not tell them apart, because even those who kept expressing their emotions did not know whether they were happy or afraid, or some other emotion, such as anticipation and worry that it was fake.
Many people didn't dare to believe it in their hearts, but had to believe it, because the person who said this was the head of the Luo family. How could the head of the Luo family speak without any purpose regarding the matter of King Su?
For such a big matter, if he was not sure that he could contact King Su, how could he say such words in public?
This must be a real thing, which means that today they will really see the Holy King Su display his power in the world.
The King of Su!
Please come down and let us, your most loyal believers, come and admire your divine power.
Everyone was looking at the azure sky with shining eyes. The few white clouds that were in the sky just now had completely disappeared. The sky was as clear as a piece of glass. The warm light shone on everyone, dispelling all the uneasiness and shadows in their hearts, as if the King of Su was passing by. Yes, what was there to worry about?
King Su is the father of all the people in the world. How could he do anything to harm his people?
Any kind-hearted citizen of the Xia Dynasty only needs to wait quietly to greet the new sun, a sun planted in their minds and hearts.
There was no waiting, no sign, not even a trace of wind, except for the flags that fluttered without wind. The clear sky was extremely warm, and there were only low voices. Of course, the sound of hundreds of thousands of people talking together, no matter how small, was loud when combined.
Amid the buzz of discussion, a beam of light descended from the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it hit the center of the swamp from above!
Looking up, I saw a black hole above the azure sky. The edge of the black hole was jagged, and it looked like the space was torn into flickering ripples that were being created and destroyed. It also seemed like the space was not stable enough. After just a dozen breaths, the jagged edges disappeared, and the edge of the hole completely turned into a smooth circle.
In the black hole, a platinum-colored beam of light fell straight down. The top end was thinner and the color of the platinum was richer, while the end that fell to the ground gradually became transparent and seemed to be ten times thicker than the top, like an inverted trumpet.
This beam of light was so dazzling that even the scorching sun in the sky that was emitting light and heat all the time was robbed of its brilliance. At this moment, people on the earth could even look up at the sun without feeling the burning and stinging!
In an instant, all sounds between heaven and earth disappeared, leaving only the roar caused by the beam of light falling. Those who witnessed it were all dumbfounded. They felt that any language was so pale in front of this beam of light that penetrated the sky and the earth. Not only were they unable to speak, they couldn't even make a sound.
The head of the Luo family prayed to the Su King. His hymn was so simple. Although it was extremely pious, it was still simple. But the Su King responded to him like this. From the nine heavens, he sent down this pillar of light that penetrated the sky and the earth. Is this the Su King's agent on earth? Is this the descendant of the Su King left on earth? Is this the privilege possessed by a family that claims to be the descendants of God?
The privilege of communicating directly with the King of Su!
Is it that something that ordinary people cannot obtain no matter how hard they try is so simple?
This scene was too shocking for most people.
Does the Su Wang really exist?
Perhaps many people have asked this question. No matter they firmly believe in the existence of God or say that it does not exist, they have all had doubts deep in their hearts. That is, sometimes they do not believe it, but they dare not be really sure that it does not exist. If they must say, there are only a few people in this world who firmly believe that there is no God. Most people would rather believe that it exists than believe that it does not exist, and dare not believe that it does not exist.
When the miracles of King Su were displayed before everyone, when King Su's existence clearly appeared before everyone, they accepted Ji Zhao's sacred existence so naturally. Their only complaint was that they could not communicate with Ji Zhao, and only the Luo family could.
When the beam of light was pulled down, the Luo family members who were watching this scene shouted loudly after a brief pause, full of joy and relief after experiencing pain. It was finally over. King Su responded to the Luo family. Their years of carrying heavy burdens were really coming to an end.
Along with Luo's shouting, the others finally came back to their senses and started shouting as well. Chaotic voices came from every corner. Everyone was celebrating the appearance of Su Wang's miracle in their own way, except for those who had a guilty conscience and looked pale.
Until Luo Chengyun's voice rang in everyone's ears again, "The spirit of the Su King is in heaven, and the glory of the Xia will last for thousands of years!"
There was a moment of silence, and then everyone started singing in unison:
"The spirit of the Su King is in heaven!"
