Chapter 169 "Pretending to be" Nuwa
Pei Duyan looked at the surroundings in disbelief, his voice trembling unconsciously:
"Have we...traveled through time?"
They were now in a farmland, and the villagers around them, holding hoes, looked at them warily.
These villagers are not wearing modern clothes, but clothing similar to that of the Song Dynasty.
A few brave villagers slowly walked up to them and looked up and down at the two people in strange costumes.
"Who are you?"
"Why did it fall from the sky?"
Feng Tianning was stunned for a moment. The way to enter the Fangcun Realm was completely random. In the past, she and Fuxi would crawl out of the soil and emerge from the water, but she didn't expect that this time they would fall from the sky.
Pei Duyan's eyes rolled, and he stepped forward and said in a pretentious manner:
“We are the gods in heaven.”
"I came down to earth this time to look for a few people destined for heaven."
Feng Tianning looked at him in confusion, and it took him a long time to digest Pei Duyan's words.
What he said was actually true. She was actually a fairy, and she came to find a few "destined people" who had accidentally entered here.
Thinking of this, Feng Tianning nodded and said:
"I am the Queen Wa."
Now it was Pei Duyan's turn to be unable to react. After a long time, he quietly gave Feng Tianning a thumbs up.
I didn't expect that Inspector Feng, who usually looks serious, can tell lies so naturally now, without any trace of lying.
But isn't this a bit too fast to get into the role? He even said he was the Queen of Wa.
Pei Duyan coughed lightly and said unwillingly:
"I am Shennong."
Feng Tianning blinked. Shennong? It had been a long time since he had heard this name from anyone.
There are Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors in Chinese history, and Shennong is one of the Three Sovereigns, along with Fuxi and Suiren.
Pei Duyan was a little nervous, wondering whether this strange world was the same as the history outside, and whether they knew about these ancient gods.
Seeing that the villagers were still wary, Pei Duyan winked at Feng Tianning, and she instantly understood and cast a spell, and the two of them flew into the air in an instant.
The spiritual power in this world is many times higher than that in the mortal world. Feng Tianning felt that his depleted dantian was quickly filling up again.
"This... this is truly divine!"
“It’s a god!”
"Greetings to the Goddess Nuwa!"
…
The villagers below all knelt down, chanting the names of Nuwa and Shennong.
Feng Tianning saw that the time was almost right, so he withdrew the spell, and the two of them landed steadily on the ground again.
"Get up." She said lightly.
The villagers stood up immediately as if they had received some oracle, but still stood aside respectfully with their heads lowered.
Pei Duyan stepped forward and asked first:
"What dynasty is it now?"
The villager who was called out was flattered and said:
"Thirteenth year of Cang Yao."
Pei Duyan looked at him with confusion, Cang Yao?
There has never been any emperor in history who had this reign title.
Feng Tianning was stunned for a moment. Cang Yao? Cang Yao?
She subconsciously thought of the comrade who had shared life and death with her.
"Okay, let's find someone first." Feng Tianning said coldly.
She always felt that there was something strange about this place. It was not like the Fangcun Realm she had first visited, but she couldn't tell what was strange about it.
Pei Duyan thought for a moment and said:
"First, take us to a place where there is writing and ink."
In his spare time, he watched those costume dramas and saw that when they were looking for people, they would first draw a portrait and then post it on the list.
Now there are only two of them, but they don’t know how big this country is, nor do they know the situation here. It is almost impossible to find Fu Ruxuan and the others.
But Pei Duyan was soon attracted by the things he saw along the way. He was a little excited at this moment. These were living ancient people and ancient objects!
When has their archaeological community ever fought such a prosperous battle?
Pei Duyan secretly made up his mind that when he got out, he would take the Fangcun Realm away and bring it back for others to study.
"My two immortals, the village chief's house is in front of us. This is the only place in our village where we have writing brushes and ink."
The leading villager respectfully led them to a thatched hut, and then winked at the people behind him.
Soon, the village chief came out of the house and looked at them with a strange look on his face:
"What's wrong with you? Why are you making such a big fuss?"
The villager coughed lightly and said:
"These two are Nuwa and Shennong. They came to us to look for some people destined for us."
The village chief's expression suddenly became strange, and he looked them up and down.
"Do you two have any proof?"
Pei Duyan frowned. He didn't expect that the villagers here were so difficult to fool.
When he said that he and Feng Tianning were immortals, he wanted to use the superstitious nature of the ancients to make it easier for them to find people.
The place where they appeared was originally a remote village with no culture, so it was reasonable to believe them when you saw them flying.
Pei Duyan was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the villagers here were so difficult to deceive. They were completely unlike the villagers in ordinary ancient villages who could not read a single word.
Seeing that the two were silent, the village chief's tone turned cold:
"You two, we have served the Goddess Nuwa for generations. If you try to impersonate her, the consequences will be something you cannot afford."
Pei Duyan was stunned for a moment, and quickly gave Feng Tianning a wink, signaling her to take action.
Feng Tianning did not hesitate and swung a sword towards a locust tree outside that was four or five people tall. The next moment, the locust tree fell to the ground.
The village chief's house suddenly fell silent.
The village chief opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.
Feng Tianning waved his hand again, and the fallen locust tree miraculously stood up again and returned to its original state.
"This...how is this possible?"
"This is the magic!"
The villagers knelt down again and kowtowed to Feng Tianning, saying "Long live the goddess Nuwa".
Pei Duyan stood beside Feng Tianning with some pride and said:
"Ignorant mortal, do you believe it now?" The village chief's face turned pale, but he still said seriously:
"Two immortals, please come with me to the prefect's house to identify him."
Pei Duyan's brows immediately furrowed, and he said with some displeasure:
"You still don't believe it?"
The village chief hurriedly shook his head and said with a flattering face:
"The prefect has spent his entire life seeking the way to immortality. I just heard you two say that you are looking for the person destined by heaven. Perhaps the prefect is the person destined by heaven that you are talking about."
Feng Tianning and Pei Duyan exchanged glances, and finally nodded and said:
"lead the way."
Seeing them leave, a villager ran to the village chief and said in a low voice:
"Did the village chief really believe it?"
The village chief shook his head mysteriously and said:
"There's something wrong with these two people. I'll send them to the prefect first."
"There's a portrait of Nuwa enshrined in the prefect's ancestral hall. We'll know when we see it."
