Chapter 481: A Cai was hit by a scam
Ah Cai hugged her head tightly with both hands, as if she wanted to shrink into her shell, squatting in a corner of the spacious, bright and magnificent hall of the Lord's Mansion of Wangyou City.
The voices of Emperor Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty and a group of Mohist masters enthusiastically discussing the construction plan of the Forbidden City came to her ears as clearly as the tide, making her mind confused.
Tong Jiayuan was standing by, looking at Ah Cai's frustrated look, and he actually summoned the souls of hundreds of heroes at once.
He also arranged for them to live and work in peace and contentment in Wangyou City. He was so happy in his heart that he almost hurt himself, and the corners of his mouth were almost stretched to his ears.
"Why did you bring back so many people during your sacrifice trip, just like selling cabbages wholesale? Didn't you say you were worried about not being able to support them?" Tong Jiayuan joked, his eyes full of mockery.
Ah Cai covered her head in pain and wailed, "I said I was scammed, do you believe me?"
"Hey, this is the first time I've heard of a hero's spirit being able to take advantage of its master. Look at how obediently Ming Chengzu Zhu Di accepted his master. It was you who couldn't bear to erase their memories. Do you regret it now?"
Tong Jiayuan looked at Ah Cai's embarrassed look and wanted to kick her twice to wake her up.
He looked around and saw that the newly emerged heroic souls were each holding a book on Chinese history, reading it with great interest, as if they were immersed in the long river of history and unable to extricate themselves.
At this time, Zhu Di finished instructing the Mohists and walked over with steady steps. He said seriously, "You are just a little girl, what's the point of squatting here for no reason? Also, when you summon Zhu Houcong, remember to keep it for me!"
Ah Cai stood up hurriedly, lowered her head, and felt so regretful in her heart. Why had she been so obedient and summoned them out?
It's like shooting oneself in the foot!
Zhu Di circled around Ah Cai a few times and said with a look of disgust, "Your face is darker than the bottom of a pot. Do you regret bringing us out?"
Ah Cai nodded, then shook her head violently, like a rattle. "I'm afraid I can't afford it (＞_＜)! My Forget Worry City is so tiny, and you want to live in the Forbidden City. How can my small temple accommodate such a huge Buddha like you?"
Zhu Di waved his hand and said in a domineering tone, "Masters of the Mohist School, prepare to build a courtyard for me. Use the space-folding technique to recreate a Forbidden City for me. Take as much land as you can!"
"Besides, once my Forbidden City is built, I will summon my subordinates to level up together and become self-sufficient..."
Zhu Di spoke incessantly, as if he had already seen his glorious future in Wangyou City, where he would call the wind and rain and dominate the world.
Tong Jiayuan looked at Zhu Di and asked curiously, "Who have you decided on for the future? I've seen many heroic spirits from the late Ming Dynasty. Don't overdo it."
Ah Cai looked worried as she glanced at Tong Jiayuan. "Um... what happens if the hero's soul becomes heavy? It's not clearly written on my skill."
Tong Jiayuan pondered for a moment and said, "I guess they either devoured each other, or one of them had its memory erased and turned into a blank slate."
Zhu Di walked around and said, "I plan to summon my three sons and my grandson Zhu Zhanji to come and see the prosperity of Wangyou City."
Ah Cai opened her mouth wide in surprise, as if she could swallow an egg. "Your crown prince and grandson are also emperors of the Ming Dynasty. They come out to summon their subordinates. Are you planning to move the entire Ming Dynasty to Wangyou City?"
Zhu Di smiled at Ah Cai and said, "You are still young and don't understand. The Crown Prince is in charge of internal affairs. I only need to charge into battle and clear those dungeons. This is the only way to show my wisdom and bravery."
Tong Jiayuan thought for a moment and said, "Which army do you want to summon? You can summon them once the barracks are built."
Zhu Di said proudly: "Of course it is the Shenji Camp. It has five battalions under it. It is the most elite unit and can sweep away thousands of troops."
Ah Cai silently took a few steps back, thinking it was too scary, especially for a creature like the emperor, who brought his own elite troops with him, including the famous Shenjiying in history. He was simply a walking nuclear weapon!
But Ah Cai was also very curious and wanted to see what the Shenjiying looked like. With the weapons and armor made by the Mohist masters, it would be so cool and handsome!
At this moment, Bai Qi came over with a smile, and when he saw Zhu Di, he bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, I will greet you in person."
Zhu Di himself was a man who rode a horse to conquer the world, and Bai Qi was once a hero in books to him.
He immediately became interested and started chatting with Bai Qi. He also went with him to visit the Qin army camp to understand the current situation...
Ah Cai wiped the nonexistent sweat from her head and muttered softly, "Thank goodness for all the intelligent robots like you. I can handle being surrounded and questioned without getting angry. Otherwise, my small body wouldn't be able to handle it."
Each summoned heroic spirit is equipped with an interstellar intelligent robot to guide them in their lives in Forgetful City.
After all, all the facilities in Wangyou City are too advanced for them. It is like traveling from ancient times to the future. The most important thing is to guide them to learn how to live here.
Tong Jiayuan tapped Acai's head and said, "Next time we go to worship, we will probably bring back a lot of heroic souls. We should choose more carefully next time, but someone like Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, would be the best."
"Huh, what do you mean?" Ah Cai was stunned, looking bewildered.
"Only someone like Zhu Di can create nesting dolls. He can summon the most elite members of a dynasty in an organized manner, so that they can go out to play dungeons and conquer the world on their own in the future, and also revitalize the economy of the entire Wangyou City." Tong Jiayuan looked at the empty Wangyou City with anticipation in his eyes.
"Besides, we can gain experience by going out to do dungeons, Master. Even if you are lazy and don't do the tasks, you can still gain experience and level up."
Tong Jiayuan said with a smile, as if he had already seen Ah Cai sleeping soundly on the book of merit.
Hearing the words "win without any effort", Ah Cai was overjoyed, as if she could already see herself lying on soft clouds, leisurely counting gold coins.
Finally I don’t have to work hard anymore, haha, I can play however I want, life is so wonderful!
A man in a Taoist robe saw that Ah Cai was alone here, so he came over and bowed, "Greetings, Master!"
Ah Cai looked at the person who came to her and naturally thought of his resume.
Li Tianjing was a famous astronomer and mathematician in the late Ming Dynasty. He had profound attainments in astronomy and calendar, and served as the director of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory.
She quickly smiled and greeted him, "Mr. Li, don't be so polite. Why didn't you go to the Qin army camp with your Emperor Chengzu?"
Li Tianjing smiled slightly, "I'm here to thank you, my lord. It's not easy for me to come out with you. It's really not easy for me to summon the space. After all, I'm too insignificant in the long river of history."
"I have the opportunity to follow the Lord out, my memory has not been erased yet, and I can see what the afterlife looks like. I feel very satisfied."
Ah Cai looked at Li Tianjing. This was a scientific researcher. "You'll have the opportunity to learn more when you complete missions and clear dungeons in the future. Don't worry, as long as nothing happens to me, you can study for as long as you want."
"You've seen that the outside world has only just landed on the moon, but the dungeon world can already take you to the interstellar world. Seize the opportunity!"
Li Tianjing was shocked and ecstatic. In the future, he would be able to go up to the sky and down to the earth to explore the sea of stars...
