Chapter 150 Mutiny
"One, two, one, everyone, work harder and put our emperor's sculpture up there!"
In Chenyu Valley, the center of Yilongbu, strong men with bare upper bodies each pulled a rope, shouted slogans, and walked forward step by step, pulling up the 49-meter-high seated statue of the emperor.
This is the tallest building in Chizhang City, and it also symbolizes that from now on, Chenyu Valley is officially under Guili's rule.
"Why is the statue of the Emperor sitting?"
In a teahouse, there were a man and a woman sitting there. The girl was looking at the sculpture of the emperor outside and asked curiously.
"The Emperor sits in the center, overlooking the four directions and ruling the Sunken Jade Valley, instead of standing like other demon gods and guiding the development of mankind." The young man explained, "Now, the Sunken Jade Valley has been brought under the management of Guili, and is naturally managed by the Seven Stars."
"It's managed by Qixing, why don't you manage it, Senior Brother?"
"Because Senior Brother is a little tired, let these seven stars take care of it."
The man and woman in the conversation are naturally Zhu Yuncheng and Gan Yu. Now it has been ten years since the Guili tsunami incident. During these ten years, the Emperor and Zhu Yuncheng no longer went on external campaigns, and the latter concentrated on dealing with the additional territorial issues. In ten years, they finally completed the transformation of Chenyu Valley, Qingce Village and Yaoguang Beach, but the people in those places have not yet completely become the people of the Emperor. In the Layered Rock Abyss, there are still millions of humans who are being influenced.
It is called influence, but in fact it is just constantly mining and digging for precious jade in the abyss of rock.
There is no need to worry about the depletion of mineral resources in the Chasm. Even in the game, the Chasm still has extremely rich mineral resources.
These more than one million people are not just humans from Chenyu Valley, they also include people from Qingce Village and Yaoguang Beach.
With more than one million people working in the mines, the amount of precious jade produced every day is extremely astonishing. In order to suppress the value of the precious jade itself, the excess precious jade is sent to the cave for storage and used to enhance the combat effectiveness of the Qianyan Army.
As the saying goes, "raise an army for a thousand days and deploy it for a moment", these Qianyan troops will be an important force for Guili to continue to expand its territory in the future.
"Senior Brother, since the Emperor already has a statue, why don't you erect one?" Gan Yu continued to ask curiously.
In response, Zhu Yuncheng just smiled and said, "A country can have two kings, but it cannot have two emperors. Guili already has an emperor, and I am just his subordinate. How can a subordinate and his boss be together?"
Seeing Gan Yu was about to speak, Zhu Yuncheng interrupted her, "Okay, I know what you want to say. It's nothing more than that after I saved Guili ten years ago, the people of Guili have been worshipping me more than the Emperor. But this is Chenyu Valley, not Guili. People here don't know the Human King, they only know the Emperor, so it's much more useful to display only the Emperor's sculpture than the sculptures of both me and the Emperor."
There was one more thing Zhu Yuncheng hadn't said, which was that the era of rule by man had not yet arrived.
"Huahua, is there anything wrong?" At this moment, Zhu Yuncheng looked towards the dark corner.
There, Hua Hua, the leader of the Human King Guards, who had red hair and was incompatible with darkness, appeared: "Human King, the other demon gods' people in the Layered Rock Abyss have begun to show signs of mutiny."
"Mutiny!" Gan Yu was startled at first, then looked at Zhu Yuncheng, only to find that the latter had an expected look on his face and was not surprised at all.
----
Let's go back to one day ago, in the abyss of layers of rock.
This strange landscape created by the Frost Nail is full of traces of human transformation.
Broad roads were carved out along the mountainside of the abyss. On one side of the road was a mine. Tamed black beasts and pack animals were pulling carts filled with various minerals that had just been excavated. When they reached the end of a road, the people there began to move pieces of raw ore down and put them on a human-powered crane. When the crane was full, the people above began to pull up the crane and transport the ore to the next road.
As the ore is transported layer by layer, it is transported to the mineral processing plant at the top.
This is a complete production process.
During this process, the Qianyan Army, wearing armor and holding spears, watched the scene indifferently.
The Qianyan Army is here to maintain law and order. As for the supervisors, they are not them but other people. They are all prisoners who have returned or other people with violent personalities.
On a road, a middle-aged man whose skin was tanned from daily work accidentally fell to the ground along with the raw ore he was carrying.
"What's going on? Ah, don't you want to do this anymore?" Seeing this scene, the supervisor holding a whip immediately came over and whipped the middle-aged man hard. In an instant, the bronze back of the middle-aged man was covered in blood.
"I was wrong, sir, please stop hitting me, please stop hitting me." The middle-aged man begged for mercy in pain, his body rolling over and over, "I was just careless, please forgive me, sir."
"You're just careless. Humph. If you accidentally fall today, you'll fall on purpose tomorrow and won't work the day after tomorrow. I think you really don't want to work honestly. Humph, you inferior person!" The supervisor cursed and whipped the middle-aged man severely, while the other people nearby only had numbness in their eyes.
On the high platform, Qianyan Jun's hand holding the gun suddenly tightened a little, and his eyes were full of anger.
After ten years, these people have more or less such marks on their bodies. I remember that when they first came here, they were still very resistant, saying the names of their respective demon gods, or maybe this was their former residence, and they would never surrender like Morax. But with the arrival of the whipping, the extreme pain forced them to surrender and begin to obey the arrangements of these people.
But the whipping did not weaken as a result, but became even more severe. It seemed that the supervisor had countless demands for them to complete, and if they failed to complete them, they would be whipped in excruciating pain.
Gradually, they began to become numb, became silent, and focused on doing their own things.
They fell silent.
But a great man said it well, Silence! Silence! Either explode in silence or perish in silence.
Among the numb crowd, a young man looked at the middle-aged man lying on the ground being whipped. The numbness in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by anger. That middle-aged man was his father.
Seeing his father struggling and begging for mercy, the young man could no longer bear it. He dropped the ore in his hand, rushed over and punched the supervisor in the face.
"You lowly people from Chenyu Valley, worse than pigs and dogs, your only fate is to work hard to mine until you die, and you still dare to make excuses here!"
The foreman who was cursing was caught off guard by this punch, and he fell to the side with astonishment in his eyes.
"Father!" the young man shouted.
"Son?" The middle-aged man was stunned at first, then spoke in disbelief.
"You bastard, you actually dare to hit me, both of you, and all of you will die!" The supervisor stood up with a ferocious face and picked up the whip again. In the past ten years, he had no idea how many people like this he had whipped. Today, someone actually dared to hit him, it was simply a rebellion!
He raised the whip and lashed the young man hard, making him kneel on the ground with one whip.
This also aroused the young man's blood. Anger filled his whole body and made him forget the pain of the whipping. He rushed forward suddenly, resisted the whipping, knocked the supervisor to the ground with one punch, then rode on him and punched him hard in the face again and again.
"Good, good fight." The Qianyan soldiers shouted in their hearts, but did not take any action on the surface.
The other numb people watched all this without any reaction.
