Chapter 4 The Storm That Became a God
Aha seemed convinced that following Yunzhi would be fun, and would come to find Yunzhi every now and then.
It wasn't like they were constantly chattering in his ear, but Yunzhi was happy to have someone talk to him.
Finally, one day, Ah Ha's big mouth brought good news to Yun Zhi.
"Do you know? Your Immortal Ship is in complete chaos."
Is everything in chaos?
It's not surprising. Social problems are the most pressing. A population boom means insufficient resources and uneven distribution. Most of the wealthy people who once invaded the Immortal Ship were there to seize territory.
If left unchecked, the people of Xianzhou will eventually become like those who burn, kill, and plunder.
Yunzhi replied to Aha, "If it's a civil war, then there's nothing to say."
I had already guessed this would happen.
Aha's point, however, was not this: "There's something funny. The civil war has actually ended for the time being. One of the celestial ships lost control because of the civil war and slid into a red giant star. It's probably gone now."
"Those who reap what they sow... Which celestial vessel fell into the water?"
Anyway, it wasn't Yao Qing, otherwise he wouldn't be able to talk to Aha right now.
"Aha doesn't know, but unfortunately, the destruction of a celestial ship did not stop them. What truly made the two sides shake hands and make peace was the Jurchen rebellion."
Aha told him that the Jurchen rebellion was not sudden, that it had been suppressed, and that the Jurchens' autonomy would be taken back in the future.
6.
Yun Zhi, who had effortlessly uncovered the whole truth, felt that besides a 6, he couldn't think of anything else to say.
"Dark humor."
He commented.
It doesn't matter how many people die, or how many immortal ships are lost, but when one's rule is shaken, all that matters is worry.
To be honest, Ah-ha really doesn't care about his taste when it comes to having fun...
"The civil war is temporarily over? The next time we'll shake hands and make peace, it'll be when outsiders invade."
Yun casually said something to him.
"Yes, so it'll be soon."
After saying this in a cryptic way, Ahha fell silent.
Yun opened her eyes, moved closer to the hibernation pod, and looked at the sleeping Lan through the glass.
He couldn't force open the hibernation pod because Lan's life was in the hands of those nobles outside; if he used force, Lan would die.
So, how much longer?
--------------
When the welded-closed door reopened, Yunzhi remained conscious.
Ahha disappeared after saying that last time and never appeared again.
Perhaps it was because Aha had spoken to him quite a bit, but when Yunzhi saw people, he could still talk to them normally, while still keeping a high level of vigilance while staring at them.
Those people seemed to need something from Lan.
The nobles, exhausted and panicked, had no time to be shocked that Yun Zhi was still conscious. They hurriedly thawed Lan, took Yun Zhi and Lan out, and then went to rest.
After being tossed and turned, Lan quickly regained his senses and took Yunzhi's hand on his way to the conference room.
"Zhi, what did you do?"
He worried that Yunzhi might have made a deal with those nobles to save him.
Yun Zhi shook her head: "I've been locked up with you the whole time, doing nothing and unable to do anything."
"Always?"
Lan was stunned.
We've been locked up together the whole time, not in hibernation?
Lan himself wasn't completely oblivious; he knew he had slept for a long time, especially if Yunzhi had been locked up with him and it wasn't in hibernation mode...
Yunzhi could tell from a slight turn of his head that Lan was worried about his mental state. Having followed him for so many years, Yunzhi knew exactly what he was going to say the moment he bent over.
"Thanks to Changle Tianjun, I am not so weak as to be unable to face others."
Yun replied casually, her mind replaying Ahha's words before he left: "It'll be soon."
It's really fast. He just left, it feels like only a short time has passed, and someone has already released them.
Lan looked at Yunzhi's nonchalant attitude, seemingly oblivious to the length of his imprisonment, and couldn't help but reach out and ruffle his hair.
Yun's hair volume is decent, and the texture is okay.
"Storm."
Yunzhi felt uncomfortable being patted on the head for no reason.
Lan smiled and quickly walked up to him, with Yun following about a step behind, just like a long time ago when they were still in the army.
The nobles hastily awakened Lan because the immortal ship had indeed encountered a major crisis.
The civil war was completely over, for they had sailed to the homeland of the bountiful people.
The Medicine God is too good, so good it's heartbreaking. He sows seeds all over the universe, and as a result, he creates all sorts of messy things that cause destruction everywhere.
No wonder the pharmacist's evaluation is so polarized; idol behavior and fan behavior are always linked, no matter how you look at it.
While fans' behavior shouldn't be attributed to idols, idols should also restrain their fans' behavior... It seems inappropriate to evaluate a star like that.
I don't want to think about it anymore.
In short, the long-term civil war has left the Immortal Ship internally extremely vulnerable. External threats are like a sword hanging over their heads, and they are like condemned prisoners stripped naked and lying on the guillotine, utterly powerless to resist.
In the face of such a crisis, they finally remembered that there was a hero trapped in this living coffin.
So they turned to Lan for help.
When they opened the door and saw that Lan's deputy was still conscious instead of turned into bones, they admitted that they were quite surprised.
But they didn't have time to remain surprised.
It's one thing to beg someone, but does Lan agree to it?
If you disagree, is it still Lan?
The Immortal Ship is on the verge of destruction. Even if it's just for the sake of the civilians on the Immortal Ship, Lan will still take action.
Yunzhi didn't really agree with Lan going to help them defeat the enemy.
But Lan shut him down with just one sentence.
"I am alive today because of my reputation among the people."
Because he was a hero, he was highly respected among the common people, so even though he shot that arrow at Jianmu, there were people who pleaded for him.
He survived because of the people of Xianzhou, so he must take responsibility for it.
"Since you've already said that, if I try to stop you, it would make me seem like I'm being unreasonable."
Yun Zhi couldn't stop it either; it was just like any other battle, and he felt there was no problem.
He even stayed up all night to make three battle plans for Lan.
He considered himself a very competent adjutant.
As a result, Lan turned around and went to see "Suihuang".
That's right, Suihuang, the leader of Suiyang who was once defeated by Lan.
When Yunzhi received the news, Lan was already prepared to go and make a deal with Suihuang.
"Storm!"
Yun was almost furious.
The sun feeds on people's emotions; while it may not necessarily harm people's lives, it is by no means a benevolent force.
They possess immense power, but if you seek their help...
"What exactly do you want to do? There are plenty of other ways, why do you have to seek their help?"
We must stop Lan this time.
But Yunzhi seemed to have forgotten that he couldn't stop him the first time, and he couldn't stop him the second time either... This was the N+1th time, and he still couldn't stop him.
"I have to do this because only in this way can I obtain the greatest benefit with the least cost."
Lan turned around:
"Now, it's up to you."
Yunzhi raised her hand, wanting to grab that figure from behind.
But it slipped weakly from the hem of Lan's clothes.
"Storm!"
Lan paused for a moment, but he did not turn back and walked toward where Suihuang was.
Lan sacrificed his emotions to gain the help of the Emperor Sui, and with the power he gained, he drew his bow and arrow to wipe out the enemy.
He shot an arrow at the Jianmu tree, just like he had long ago.
However, the power gap between humans and the creations of gods remained so vast that even with the help of the Fire Emperor, Lan still failed to cut down the Jianmu tree.
But in the midst of the chaos, he fell into a crevice in the abyss.
Yunzhi disregarded the so-called overall situation and followed Lan into the abyss.
He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he regained consciousness, his physique and strength had undergone even greater changes.
Yunzhi found himself dressed in riding attire, holding a longbow, and sitting on a tall and strong warhorse.
He looked at the even more bizarre-looking creature beside him with some confusion.
With a human body, horse legs, and two wheels behind it, it looks like a combination of a man, a horse, and a chariot.
But Yunzhi could still call out his name.
"Arashi—"
Lan seemed to nod to him, drew back his longbow, and a beam of light fell, severing the Jianmu tree that had plagued his hometown for hundreds of years with a single strike.
With the Jianmu tree destroyed, the fairy boat was finally freed from its clutches.
Yunzhi's memories were still in disarray. Seeing that Lan seemed to be leaving, he instinctively followed her.
He followed Lan no matter what.
As for the chaotic memories? That's not important; there will always be time to sort them out.
