Reading poems from Teyvat

It was hard for Shen Zhigui to say that he was just doing this with the mentality of trying his best. In fact, he didn't have any hope for these people to succeed. Now that Senor was ready to rely on these people, he was of course just helping him to advance this plan. Anyway, according to his original plan, he did let Senor cosplay as the archbishop who wanted to take back the inheritance:

"Anyway, the key to this matter lies in the Church Order and the Doctor. In fact, there is no need to worry too much about the Church Order, because their top leaders are actually incompetent. Their authority lies in the fact that they can control Xumi's economy and personnel promotions through devices such as the 'Void'. As for you, although Xumi's economy is not closely related to the desert, you are definitely the exploited bottom, or even the lowest level. Since you have nothing to lose, their authority is more of a source of your resentment than authority.

"As for personnel promotions, those who are still in the desert are basically those who are not favored by or cannot be recruited by the Order Institute, right? Otherwise, they would have basically gone to the Thirty-Man Group."

Candice couldn't help but exchange a glance with Seno, who was suspected to be of desert descent:

That's exactly the case.

Although this kind of thing is a commonplace, for an "outsider" like Shen Zhigui, how could he have investigated it in such a short period of time?

"And those who are still dying in the desert are probably not used to using the 'Void', or they are disdainful of using the 'Void', right?"

Of course, Shen Zhigui actually guessed maliciously in his heart that it was more likely because these desert people were not actually endowed with the value of the void. In his understanding, although most graphics cards can be used for mining, there are definitely differences between graphics cards. It doesn't seem worth wasting electricity on these "human mines" -

After all, it should cost money for the Ministry of Education to manufacture void personal terminals.

"So, the desert people actually have no resistance to rebelling against the House of Lords. They can even be said to be the class with the most revolutionary... I mean rebellious consciousness." Shen Zhigui didn't want to talk nonsense at this time, although he just wanted to use this opportunity to sort out his thoughts. "But the problem is, how to resist, and what can we get after the resistance."

"Didn't you say you would teach us how to cure Demon Scale Disease?"

"I really don't mean to go back on my word," Shen Zhigui just said, "If you think this is enough, I have nothing to say, but I think that compared to the consequences of a failed resistance, this bargaining chip is actually not worth it for you to risk your life to participate in this beheading deal, right?"

Although Candice didn't really care about what the young man said, she was indeed prepared to use her personal connections to deal with Shen Zhigui at this time. She also knew some people whose family members were suffering from the magic scale disease. If these people ran around for Shen Zhigui, they would definitely not have any complaints. If Shen Zhigui's action failed, she believed that even if the Church of the Lord wanted to investigate, as the guardian of Aru Village, she believed that she could protect those people.

Although before that, she would definitely make Shen Zhigui hand over his chips first.

This is what he called the method of suppressing the demonic scale disease.

However, in Candice's opinion, those people's behavior was almost the same as normal people except that they still had "magic scales" on their bodies.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

"I mean, compared to the illusory wish of the Red King's resurrection, wouldn't it be more appropriate for you to place your hopes on the Great Kindness Tree King, a god who is shamefully imprisoned by humans?"

Candice frowned immediately: "No one can prove that the Great Compassion Tree King is still in this world, just like no one can prove that the Red King can be resurrected."

"That's true," Shen Zhigui nodded. Although he knew that the remnant soul of the Great Compassion Tree King was still lingering inside the World Tree, he didn't have any evidence at the moment. He didn't dare to connect his consciousness to the World Tree at this time, let alone use the two God's Hearts to unravel the secrets left by the Great Compassion Tree King. "But no matter what, if you desert people don't want to be liquidated in the end, it's best to find a suitable flag. Otherwise, even if you solve this conspiracy, they will probably still think that you desert people just happened to participate in a political speculation, so in the end you will still be kicked out of the highest level of power by the rainforest people."

At this moment, Senuo looked at Shen Zhigui with strange eyes.

Although he also knew that there was nothing wrong with what Shen Zhigui said.

In any case, if the existing power structure of the House of the Order continues to be maintained, the desert people involved in this operation will probably be kicked out of the top level in the end, because the scholars of the House of the Order are still scholars of the House of the Order after all. They can tolerate problems within their own ranks, but they cannot tolerate studying with a group of desert people as if they were governing Mount Sumeru.

Chapter 109: Feathered Edicts Are Heard Every Day and Evening (Part 2)

What Seno found incredible was that someone like Shen Zhigui was actually thinking about the problem from the perspective of the desert people.

Of course, Senor actually had no prejudice against the desert people. Although many people in the Gilded Brigade were committing crimes, although crimes were frequent in the desert, and although tomb robbery and other incidents were also endless, although...

If he continued talking, Seno would feel like he was being racist.

However, he did not object to the fact that the desert people could also reach the highest level of power in Xumi.

Because in the final analysis, if people who were not born in the desert were standing in that position, of course, it is not ruled out that some people who stood up would be quickly corrupted by power or that their interests were completely tied to those in power and they forgot their desert origins, but it is better to have a desert person standing there than to have no one. Otherwise, if there is no one in the upper class who speaks for their interests, the desert people will always have to serve as the lowest class of people in the country of Xumi. In this case, they may not be able to guarantee their own survival, so it is understandable that the crime rate has increased to a certain extent.

Although Shen Zhigui’s understanding is that “when the granaries are full, people will know etiquette; when they have enough food and clothing, they will know honor and disgrace,” a more intuitive statement is that the economic base determines the superstructure.

But according to Seno's observation of Shen Zhigui, this man should be a bard. No matter how you look at it, scholars of the Academy of Ordinances who like elegant words are actually better than desert people with vulgar words, right?

Why does this person think from the perspective of the desert people?

Is he really thinking this, or is he trying to trick the desert people into taking advantage of the situation?

Although he didn't seem to have any reason to do so.

Even if the desert man really stood at the highest level of power in Xumi as he said, even if these people remembered his "dedication" in the process, there are actually more convenient ways for this person to get involved in the highest power in Xumi. Apart from anything else, Seno absolutely believes that this person can solve the problem of the doctor and then undermine the then Institute of the Order and the Little Auspicious Grass King, and then use the Little Auspicious Grass King to control Xumi, not to mention that he also holds the bargaining chip for curing the magic scale disease. As long as he makes this matter public, his reputation in Xumi will be so high that it cannot be increased.

Not to mention his terrifying martial arts skills.

People in the world generally pursue life and avoid death, but with the cultivation level of this young man in front of us, I am afraid that after people know that he holds the method to cure the magic scale disease and has the ability to kill most creatures in his sight in the blink of an eye, they will nominate him as the new god. At that time, the Great Compassion Tree King and the Small Auspicious Grass King will have to stand aside.

Although he didn't seem to intend to do so.

Now he actually seems to be genuinely concerned about the desert people.

Candice seemed to have the same doubts as Seno. Although Shen Zhigui had said something similar before, she still didn't think Shen Zhigui was really thinking about them, but just wanted to use them to achieve a certain goal. So she asked directly: "So you think the desert people can avoid being liquidated by using the flag of the Great Compassion Tree King?"

"If the Great Compassion Tree King is indeed gone, it is actually difficult to avoid it."

Shen Zhigui just said what he thought.

"Then why don't the desert people just use the flag of the Little Lucky Grass King?"

Shen Zhigui couldn't say that he had a bad impression of the young god, and in his memory, although the desert people did contribute to saving her, they didn't seem to get any promotion in the end. They just talked broadly about the issue of educational equity for those desert people, but this so-called issue of educational equity seemed particularly pale in front of a criminal who was admitted to the hospital without taking an exam. So Shen Zhigui had reason to doubt the attitude of the little auspicious grass king.

Although the attitude of the Great Compassion Tree King is also questionable, it is not even certain whether she is really willing to choose to continue staying in this world instead of sacrificing herself.

But if the person is that saintly, Shen Zhigui would not want to doubt that such a person would have two different attitudes towards desert people and rainforest people.

But the attitude of the little auspicious grass king has been verified, at least by him.

But facing Candice's doubts, Shen Zhigui could only say: "If you choose the Great Kindness Tree King as your banner, even if she is gone, you still have room to operate. But if you choose the Little Auspicious Grass King, if she wants to take power in person in the future, you will have no room for excuses."

Candice was silent for a moment:

This is an acceptable reason. Although there are still some flaws, the possibility of the Great Compassion Tree King being resurrected is impossible at all.

But she still had doubts about the boy in front of her:

Because no matter how you look at it, Shen Zhigui's mind is too fickle. Although her friendship with Eula has become very good in this short period of time, she has also learned about the past of this young man from the old noble lady of Mond, and can even hear some hidden thoughts of the old noble lady about the young man in front of her, but no matter how you look at it, this young man who suddenly came to the desert and suddenly vowed that the hope of the desert people lies in the Great Mercy Tree King rather than the Red King behaves like a swindler. Although he did prove his ability in front of her, Candice even suspected that if he could control the patient with magic scale disease to forget that she had received treatment, then he could probably control her to agree with his statement.

She even suspected that the reason why Eula was so conflicted about the young man was because he had secretly manipulated Eula's emotions and made the noble lady with outstanding appearance his plaything.

But if that was the case, wouldn't he be able to simply stand at the highest point of Aru Village and blow his flute to command these people to rush towards Xumi City recklessly?

Candice really couldn't understand.

Although she also knew that it was probably because she could not see the limit of the ability of the young man in front of her that she was so hesitant at the moment.

But if the boy in front of him needs their help to do something——

Candice thought of this and suddenly came to her senses:

After all, did he really look like he needed the Desert People's help?

After all, even when talking about this kind of thing, his reasons just sounded like nonsense, just to fool her.

So Candice finally asked the question that concerned her most:

"But it seems to me that whether the Desert People participate in this operation or not is not that important to you, right? You don't really seem to care whether the Desert People can help you defeat the conspiracy of the Order and the doctor. If so, why do you bother to get the Desert People involved? Or, why do you want the Desert People to participate in the highest level of Xumi?"

"fair."

Shen Zhigui just said it subconsciously.

Chapter 110: Feathered Edicts Are Heard Every Day and Evening (Part 2)

Although in the final analysis this is just one of Shen Zhigui's bad tastes.

But this vague idea, like a castle in the air, is more in line with Candice's understanding of this person.

Although Candice was still hesitant at this time, the Gilded Brigade was indeed becoming more and more restless. Instead of allowing those people to continue to stir up unrest for the illusory resurrection of the Red King, it would be better to let people like Shen Zhigui guide them to the House of the Order. This would allow the desert to continue to be stable.

Although no matter how she looked at it now, she had no way to ask this person to teach her the method of curing the demonic scale disease in advance.

So Candice ended up just telling Shen Zhigui the information of several high-ranking officials of the Gilded Brigade, regardless of whether Shen Zhigui was going to reason with those people calmly or manipulate them like he used the sound of the flute to manipulate those patients with magic scale disease before. Although Candice felt that the most likely scenario was that Shen Zhigui and Senor would directly seize the handles of those high-ranking officials to threaten them into submission, these things had nothing to do with her. At such a precarious time, Aru Village obviously needed her protection more.

……

After a few days.

Although Aru Village was calm on the surface, Seba was vaguely aware that an unprecedented storm was brewing. The originally restless members of the Gilded Brigade in Aru Village had become more active. If they were only chasing after some illusory desire that seemed to indicate the meaning of life, now those young people's spirits had clearly become more intense and their goals had become clearer, just like coal that had been buried in the ground for a long time and finally encountered a destined spark, ready to burn the entire world.

And the fire quickly started.

Before Seba could even figure out why the Gilded Brigade and the Order of the Lords were in conflict, she suddenly heard the news that the Gilded Brigade was preparing to completely confront the Order of the Lords, and even raised the banner of reviving the Great Kindness Tree King.

Aren’t these people always talking about resurrecting the Red King?

Although Seba believed that she was still on the side of the Order of the Church, she actually had no time to think about these things.

She hid in her own residence in a panic, and heard the news that several exiled mad scholars seemed to have been dealt with secretly. It seemed that the Gilded Brigade believed that although those mad scholars were always crazy and were expelled by the Council of Ecclesiastes, they were actually sent to the desert by the Council of Ecclesiastes to create disasters and spread the forbidden knowledge so that the desert people would embark on the path of self-destruction. As a person who was also exiled by the Council of Ecclesiastes, Seba naturally became even more afraid.

But the strange thing was that everyone seemed to have forgotten that she was actually exiled. When she had to go out to buy necessary daily necessities, those people's attitude towards her remained the same, and they had no intention of killing her.

So she calmed down, only to find that most of the crazy scholars in the village had disappeared!

"This……"

Seba had no idea what this situation meant, but a suffocating feeling like drowning was drowning her spirit. She looked around suspiciously, feeling that at any time someone might rush out and kidnap her and throw her into the depths of a desert where no one cared.

"If you're looking for that Isaac, he was just transferred away early."

At this moment, the voice of a familiar young man came from above. Although it was far away, Seba could still hear his nonchalant voice.

"Transfer?"

“Nip problems before they happen.”

"What 'disease' should we guard against?"

The young man jumped down from a great height, but he landed as lightly as a feather falling in the wind, and finally stood beside her. Behind him was still the strangely carried sword, with the hilt pointing downwards and the tip of the sword pointing upwards. So he looked almost the same as the first time she saw him, like a bard who accidentally took the wrong path and ran into the desert.

"We need to prevent them from being kidnapped by someone."

The young man seemed to see Seba's worry, so he shook his head and said, "Don't worry, although you were all exiled by the Order, the reasons for your exile are different, right? You were exiled to Aru Village simply because you violated certain regulations of the Order, and those people were abandoned by the Order because they went crazy while uploading their consciousness to the World Tree through the void. But I estimate that their corresponding value will soon be realized, so they were transferred away in advance."

Although Shen Zhigui was very skeptical about whether doing so would be useful.

Since the doctor has already cooperated with the Ministry of Education, even if he can't find the crazy scholar from Aru Village, can't he do it himself? He can even ask the Ministry of Education to order scholars to accumulate numbers to access the knowledge inside the World Tree and obtain enough canned knowledge of the gods. Judging from his unscrupulous style of conducting human experiments, he can definitely do it.

So right now it can only delay a little bit of time.

If he wanted to completely solve the problem of the void before the decisive battle, either Tinari could contact the Little Auspicious Grass King and ask the current Grass God to restore the void terminal to factory settings, but then he wouldn't have to be cautious, nor would he need to care whether the doctor had built his artificial god or not, he could just go to war with him directly; and if Tinari couldn't contact the Little Auspicious Grass King who was imprisoned in the Jingshan Palace, then he could only use artificial methods to block the authority of the void, that is, to take down the person who gave the order at the right time -

Although the latter seems almost like a fantasy.

Because now it is hard to say who has the deepest understanding of the void device.

Even the great sage Azar may not be able to control a specific person's body directly through the void like the Doctor.

Not to mention directly and forcibly controlling everyone in the city through the void to hunt down a specific person.

This is also the reason why Shen Zhigui had no interest in cooperating with the desert people from the beginning.

Because the hope of getting anything done is too low.

So in fact, the best way is to find the Little Auspicious Grass King first, and let the contemporary grass god gain control of the Grass God's Heart. Only after eliminating the people in Xumi City's dependence on the void, he can let go and do what he wants to the doctor. However, Shen Zhigui had a prejudice against the Little Auspicious Grass King from the beginning, so he had been dragging his feet and was unwilling to find her in person. After all, if he really wanted to see her, the doctor couldn't stop him.

Chapter 111: Boats and Cars Connect Everywhere (Part 1)

"What is the real value of those 'village guards'?"

When Seba heard what Shen Zhigui said, although she was very concerned about why the relationship between the Gilded Brigade and the Institute had become like this, her instinct as a scholar began to play tricks on her, so she asked the young man sharply.

But Shen Zhigui just shook his head: "Finding out all this will only bring you more trouble. Isn't that why you were exiled to Aru Village by the Ministry of Education?"

Seba immediately lowered his head in despair.

Then she heard the boy say, "But I see that you don't seem to be used to the current situation. How about sending you out of the desert as well?"

Seba pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "So, the changes in the Gilded Brigade in recent days are actually all caused by you?"

Shen Zhigui hesitated for a moment and then nodded: "It's not impossible for you to say so."

When Seba saw that this young man, who she had only met once, actually admitted it frankly, she didn't know what to say. She didn't even know whether she should believe his words at this moment. Although she knew that the young man in front of her was definitely not an ordinary person from the scene where he fell from a height like a feather without the help of the Wings of Wind, and he had also encouraged her to escape from Aru Village and get rid of the control of the Church, she still felt that it was a little too unbelievable:

He has achieved this level in just less than a few days since entering here. Could it be that he really has information that can prove that the Great Compassion Tree King is still alive?

"You seem to really hope that the Great Compassion Tree King can be resurrected?"

Hearing her say that, Shen Zhigui asked with a little surprise.

"It should be said that everyone in the Ministry of Education grew up with the legend of the past under the rule of the Great Compassion Tree King," Saiba said softly, and then looked straight at Shen Zhigui, "So, do you really have evidence that the master is still alive?"

Shen Zhigui did not comment: "I think so."

"So……"

Seba immediately became excited, but soon she discovered more doubts: "But hasn't the Gilded Brigade always wanted to revive the Red King? How on earth did you use this statement to make them..."
