I was a god in the 18th century

Xia Qingdai was no longer interested in the tug-of-war between the British delegation and Qing officials.

After returning to the capital, she is now most interested in the infant shelter tower she built. During this time, Wen Renyi has exchanged a lot of money and done a lot of things with the high-purity silver wire she gave him for experiments.

Now that the Infant Shelter Tower is fully operational, Wen Renyi no longer allows believers to take care of the babies at their own expense. Instead, he provides food and accommodation, focusing on sustainable development.

One night, someone secretly dropped a baby girl at the door of the Infant Shelter Pagoda and was not punished by heaven. Since then, more and more people came to drop off their children at night.

However, this "more" is only relative to the previous "0". Compared with before Xia Qingdai took action to deter others, there are still much fewer abandoned babies.

Xia Qingdai was reluctant to feed other little people too much, fearing that they would become useless and lazy. But for infants and young children who were not yet able to survive independently, she was only afraid that she would not give them enough.

Give her more while she is in the capital. Once Owen leaves, if the map here disappears as well, it will be too late to regret.

So she had to at least fill a warehouse with food to ensure that the children would not lack food for a few years.

She had plenty of food. One grain of rice was enough for the little people in Lilliput to have a meal. If she bought a bag of 50 kilograms of rice from the supermarket, Lilliput could give free food to the people of the entire capital. She would never go bankrupt.

In fact, Xia Qingdai did the same.

Although she disliked the Qing government, the Chinese people were innocent.

Being poor cares themselves, being wealthy cares the world.

Rice and noodles were distributed to the little people, who cheered and rejoiced, and Xia Qingdai also felt spiritually satisfied.

Nowadays, there are crowds of people around the Piying Pagoda every day, some come to pray, some come to donate, and some come to worship. Although there are many people, it is not noisy because everyone tacitly does not dare to speak loudly, for fear of disturbing the gods in the sky.

Wen Renyi would take an hour every afternoon to distribute rice and flour to the people queuing in front of the All-Metal Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests.

This incident won him countless hearts of the people, and of course it also attracted the attention of the court.

It was just that the temple and tower that rose out of thin air behind him were too magical and intimidating, which suppressed the four forces. No one, whether black or white, came to cause trouble for the time being.

But Wen Renyi knew that what was coming would come sooner or later. He just waited and saw what would happen if he stayed here.

The Chinese believe that man can conquer nature. As the Son of Heaven and the Emperor, it is impossible for him to remain indifferent to things that are beyond his control.

Qianlong naturally also received reports about Wenren Yi distributing grain to the common people every day.

This matter is a taboo no matter where it happens, because it is a blatant attempt to mislead the people and win their hearts!

Moreover, Qianlong could not believe that there really were gods in this world who could create towering temples and towers.

So he quickly sent people to the so-called "temple" to capture the person. If the gods couldn't catch him, could he let the demon escape?

He must ask for clarification himself.

On the day when the Imperial Guards and the Infantry Commander's Office were dispatched together, Wen Renyi was in his temporary residence - the bedroom on the second floor of the Biying Tower, studying on the "mobile phone" given by the ancestor god.

The e-book "Friends of Military and Civilian Dual-Use Talents" overturned his previous inherent cognition. He couldn't figure out many of the terms recorded in it, so he memorized them silently in his mind, waiting to ask for advice every evening when he burned incense to the ancestral gods.

The ancestor god has appeared quite frequently recently, so Wen Renyi is not worried about not being able to understand him, nor is he worried about the imperial soldiers who may come to arrest him at any time.

If the ancestor god took action, then his reputation in the court as the god's representative on earth would surely soar, which would be helpful for his future uprising.

If the ancestor god didn't take action, he would be captured at most. Then he could use his eloquence to find a way to survive. What he did was a capital crime, so why should he be afraid of risks?

"Oh!"

A sharp arrow shot through the newly pasted window paper of the tower, fell into the temple, and collided with the metal ground with a crisp sound.

"Listen everyone inside, you are surrounded, come out and surrender immediately."

Someone outside was shouting at the inside, and Wen Renyi knew from the sound of footsteps that there were at least a thousand people coming.

He hesitated for only a second before giving up the idea of ​​breaking out.

With his skills, if he really wanted to escape, he could do so. If he gave it a try, he would have at least an 80% chance of success.

But he didn't want to leave, because if he ran away he would become a wanted criminal.

Before the rebellion began, he did not want to lose his freedom to roam the world.

Wen Renyi was not afraid, but the devout believers who followed him to clean the tower and take care of the infants were frightened by the noise.

"What's going on? It's an arrow!"

"Why did the imperial court come to arrest us? Don't they know that this is the territory of the gods?"

"They are not afraid of blaspheming the gods. What should we do? What should we do? Let's burn incense to the gods!"

Everyone was talking at once, with nervous expressions on their faces.

Wen Renyi stood up, overlooking the hall on the first floor, and said soothingly, "You stay in the main hall and take care of the children while I go out to take a look. Don't worry, we are all law-abiding people of God, the court must have misunderstood."

"Master Li, are you really okay?"

Wen Renyi, who had transformed into Taoist Li, jumped down from the second-floor railing, quietly lit a stick of incense, and inserted it into the incense burner in the center. He then turned to look at the panicked crowd and slightly pulled the corner of his mouth: "It's really okay."

Xia Qingdai was lying on the edge of the glass tank, watching the children of Taohua Village playing. In the blink of an eye, she saw the infant shelter tower appear below.

"Hey, it's not even evening yet, why is Wen Renyi lighting incense?" Xia Qingdai was puzzled. Wen Renyi was a very regular person in some aspects.

I have always burned incense at night, never during the day. This sudden change must have something going on.

She lowered her head and took a closer look, and soon discovered the clue.

The Infant Refuge Tower was clearly surrounded by people wearing imperial uniforms. Ordinary yamen runners were not issued uniforms, even in the capital.

But now all that appeared before my eyes were men in uniform, so it was certain that it was the army that was to be the target.

The fact was just as she expected, the imperial guards were elite soldiers with strong backing.

But they don't know yet what kind of enemy they are facing.

Xia Qingdai unabashedly took out a red plastic glove, stretched out her hand in front of Wen Renyi, and said with a low laugh: "Come up, I'll take you to experience real flying."

After seeing this giant red hand and hearing the voice coming from the sky, Wen Renyi was completely relieved. (End of this chapter)
