Lin Wanqing's vanity reached its peak at this moment!
This is the kind of life a time-traveling woman should have!
The God of Sulda is a deity worshipped by the people of Beili since ancient times. In their hearts, all major events must be approved by the God of Sulda to be considered valid.
Lin Wanqing arrived at the temple, stepped off the sedan chair, and walked barefoot up the steps, kneeling before the statue of the god Sulda.
The statue of the god Sulda is tens of feet tall. It represents fire and the sun. The entire statue is carved from stone and painted red.
The statue has glaring eyes, and its hair is carved with each strand distinct, curving in all directions like the rays of the sun.
On the stone wall behind the statue, various ancient characters and murals of Beili are carved, showing how the god Sudar created the world with the sun and fire, and guided the tribes of Beili to come to this land to live and multiply.
The statue was surrounded by braziers.
After Lin Wanqing knelt down, a barefoot man appeared, wearing a mask resembling the god Sulda, holding a small drum in his left hand and a torch in his right.
He was dressed in a robe made of animal fur, covered with various strange runes, and he was spinning a small drum while chanting incomprehensible incantations around Lin Wanqing.
As he was reciting, he spat on the torch, and the flames instantly grew larger, rushing towards Lin Wanqing.
Lin Wanqing felt the heat coming on, but she didn't dare to move and obediently knelt down.
She knew this was a ritual performed by a shaman to bestow titles upon her.
Then the shaman knelt before the god Sudar, first kowtowing three times to the statue of Sudar, then lighting an incense stick and placing it in the incense burner in front of the statue, before kneeling again and raising his hands high.
At this moment, a young girl carrying a tray walked up to the shaman and knelt down.
On the tray was a small red bowl containing about half a bowl of water. Next to the bowl was a small square red box and a small spoon.
The shaman took the small bowl, opened the small box, scooped a spoonful of white powder from inside and put it into the bowl, then handed it to Lin Wanqing.
Lin Wanqing took it and drank it down in one gulp.
At this moment, everyone in the hall held their breath, and the only sound could be the crackling of the fire burning in the brazier.
A stick of incense slowly burned out.
Lin Wanqing is perfectly fine.
Everyone cheered, chanting, "Goddess! Goddess! Goddess! Goddess!"
Lin Wanqing smiled; she had gained the approval of the people of Bei Li.
As for this medicinal powder, it's just ordinary kudzu root powder.
Whether she could become a goddess was, frankly speaking, entirely determined by Wanyan Da.
He's willing to let her be it, so she is.
If he refuses, she will definitely be poisoned.
Sometimes, deities are nothing more than tools used by rulers to deceive people.
Lin Wanqing had already understood this principle in her previous life.
Wanyan Da stepped forward and helped Lin Wanqing up. Everyone in the hall knelt before the two of them.
"Your Majesty, may the Goddess live a long and peaceful life!"
Wanyan Da whispered in Lin Wanqing's ear, "I have already sent people to do as the goddess instructed."
Lin Wanqing's smile remained unchanged. "Then I congratulate Your Majesty on your imminent unification of the Nine Provinces!"
The cries of "Your Majesty, may the Goddess live ten thousand years!" lingered for a long time.
At the same time that Lin Wanqing was conferred the title of Goddess, Su Ruojin and Xiao Yanchu arrived at Dali Temple with the imperial decree.
