The King and His Subjects Are One

Chapter 716: The King and His Subjects Are One

Qin Mu and others arrived at the Imperial Master's residence, but Imperial Master Yankang was not there. His wife was teaching her child to read. She hurriedly led the child out and said, "My husband went to see the emperor and hasn't been back for a while. Yunjian, call me godfather!"

The child next to her was only three or four years old, and he called Qin Mu "godfather" in a baby voice.

Qin Mu's face flushed, and he said hesitantly, "Sister-in-law, I'm not married yet, how can I be your godfather?"

The Imperial Master's wife laughed and said, "When Yunjian was born, he already worshipped his godfather. How can the leader not acknowledge him?"

Qin Mu thought for a moment, then pulled out a large wing from his Taotie bag, plucked a fire feather from the wing, and said, "This is the Vermillion Bird Feather. After all, it is the feather of a powerful warrior on the God Slaying Platform. Let Yun Jian play with it first. I can't give this wing to you. It's too heavy and dangerous. The feather is very light. Wait a moment, I will suppress the Vermillion Bird Holy Fire in this Vermillion Bird Feather."

He sealed the Holy Fire of Vermillion Bird with the rune of Heavenly Fire Avenue, and then handed the three-foot-long Vermillion Bird feather to Jiang Yunjian. The child held the feather and went to chop the stone lion at the door. A flash of fire cut the stone lion in half.

The Imperial Master's wife was startled and quickly snatched the Vermillion Bird Feather away, saying, "I'll give it to you when you grow up!"

Qin Mu brought the woodcutter, Di Yiyue and Chu Zu to the palace. The empress said, "Your Majesty was kidnapped by the imperial teacher, who said he was going to the Imperial Academy. But he was never sent back after a long time. Now the crown prince is the regent and is handling state affairs."

They came to the Imperial Academy again, and Gu Li Nuan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty and the Imperial Master are not here either. They have been here for a while, summoning scholars and saying that they want to build a sun boat and a moon boat, and then they took many scholars to the supervision factory in Jiangling, and Your Majesty followed them."

Emperor Yiyue laughed and said, "This Majesty actually doesn't sit on the Dragon Throne, but runs around all day long."

They then came to Jiangling, which is the hometown of National Master Yankang. It has the most factories, with more than a hundred of them.

When they arrived here, before they saw Emperor Yanfeng and the Imperial Master, they saw many large ships traveling on the water, transporting huge and sophisticated components to the largest factory in Jiangling.

Those parts should be the parts of the sun boat and the moon boat.

The sun boat and moon boat of the Kaihuang era were forged from stone, but here they are forged from metal, which is very costly.

Qin Mu also saw many women from Xitu Zhentian Palace helping here, and the girl leading the group was an acquaintance of his, Xiong Xiyu's daughter Xiong Qier.

After not seeing each other for a few years, Xiong Qier has grown to be eight or nine years old. She is casting spells at the Jiangling Construction Supervision Factory, activating each component one by one, allowing these huge machines to float and assemble automatically.

"Brother Master!"

Xiong Qier was very happy to see him, and even happier to see Long Qilin. She ran over in a hurry, threw Qin Mu aside, and hugged Long Qilin's dragon whiskers happily.

Qin Mu was dodged by the little girl, but saw that the girl jumped onto Long Qilin's tail again. Long Qilin raised his tail, and the little girl slid from the tip of the tail to Long Qilin's forehead, giggling.

"The solar boat made by the imperial master and the emperor seemed to have every component forged from a mold. Each factory only made a dozen or so components and then assembled them together."

Qin Mu was surprised and stepped forward to look at these parts. The runes on the parts could be linked together very precisely. With the help of the animistic magic of the Western Land, they could be assembled quickly.

"This is a good way to mass-produce solar boats and moon boats!" Qin Mu praised repeatedly.

The Sun Boat and the Moon Boat were designed by the Woodcutter Sage. However, the manufacturing of these two important instruments in the Kaihuang era was not so sophisticated, so the Sun Boat and the Moon Boat came in different sizes and were manufactured at a slow speed.

The manufacturing factory in Jiangling can quickly produce the sun boat and the moon boat!

When they found Imperial Master Yankang and Emperor Yanfeng, they had already fallen asleep in the factory. The people of the Earthly Tribe were busy forging various parts, and gods less than five feet tall were flying around the various parts.

"You want to find the Tu Bie Emperor?"

Mrs. Tu stroked her beard and shouted in a thunderous voice, "There's a corpse lying there!"

Qin Mu, the woodcutter and others looked in the direction where she pointed, and saw two grown men lying on their backs in a corner of the factory. The deafening sound of forging could be heard in the factory, but the two men were sleeping soundly.

Both Imperial Master Yankang and Emperor Yanfeng were handsome men. Although they were middle-aged, they paid great attention to their appearance.

But at this moment, both of them had untidy beards, and their clothes were very worn and dirty. Master Yankang's foot was on Emperor Yanfeng's face, and Emperor Yanfeng was sleeping soundly with his arms around Master Yankang's legs.

There were also many court ministers and scholars from the Imperial Academy lying in the corner of the factory, sleeping soundly.

Di Yiyue was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "I know why the Great Heavenly Master has such high expectations for them. Such an emperor and such a national master are indeed the leaders of reform."

The woodcutter sage asked, “Do we need to wake them up?”

"No need for that. They are all gods, and they are still so tired. It shows that they have been very hard these days."

Emperor Yiyue said: "I never thought that the emperor could personally preside over such trivial matters, nor did I think that the state teacher who presided over the reform would be able to do everything personally. This state teacher is better than you did back then."

The woodcutter sage laughed and said, "Back then I just tinkered with some things and asked others to do them. In fact, I was afraid of trouble and rarely did anything myself."

Emperor Yiyue said: "You are a saint, too far away from people."

The woodcutter sage was silent, and said in a hoarse voice: "The Heavenly King's teaching is correct. When the natural disaster broke out, I led the people to resist, but was defeated. At that time, I realized that I was too far away from the people and the army. As a Heavenly Master, I must have a commanding position, but I must also enter the army and the mortal world. I was too far away and acted rashly, which led to the great defeat. In fact, I am not as good as Prince Qin Wu."

The First Human Emperor was slightly startled and looked at him with an expression of disbelief.

The woodcutter sage said: "In fact, although I didn't want to see him for 20,000 years, I have always admired him. In that chaotic era, although he became a deserter, he saw the suffering people and still resolutely took up the burden, guarded these people, fought desperately, and used his life to protect them to come to Yankang. If there was no Prince Qin Wu, there would be no Yankang in later generations."

There were tears in the eyes of the First Human Emperor, he turned his head away and wiped them quietly.

The woodcutter sage saw this and said, "But he eventually fell into depravity. He kept blaming himself and couldn't get over the shadow of being a deserter, so I looked down on him. Now that he has come out of it, I am very relieved. In fact, he has always done better than me in the disaster."

Di Yiyue smiled and said, "There's no need to alarm them. Let's go."

They walked out of the shipyard. Outside the factory, Xiong Qier played around for a while, then started working seriously and finally built a big ship.

The little girl took out the White Tiger Pearl and lightly tapped the pearl. Then the huge land ship slowly stood up, shaking the ground.

In the construction factory, Emperor Yanfeng and Imperial Master Yankang were awakened and ran out in a hurry. When they saw that the big ship had come to life, they cried with joy and hugged each other, crying and laughing.

Qin Mu summoned Long Qilin and Di Yiyue and the others, who had already gone far away. Emperor Yanfeng caught a glimpse of Long Qilin from afar and asked in confusion, "When did Qin Aiqing come? Why did he leave again? I am here with the Imperial Master, and he left without even saying hello! Someone, bring some writing brushes and ink! Today is a great occasion, and you are in a good mood. I want to write a big, correct character for him!"

The woodcutter quickly said goodbye and left, saying, "I am still looking for the farmer and contacting others, so I can't stay here. Fishermen, let's go."

The fisherman left with him.

The First Human Emperor also said goodbye, "I also have important matters to attend to." After saying this, he left in a hurry.

Qin Mu blinked and watched them leave, thinking, "It's OK that Teacher Qiaofu has something to do, but why does the First Ancestor also have so many things to do? What is he busy with?"

Di Yiyue looked at him and smiled, "Brother, do you have anything to do? If not, why not come with me to find Tian Shu Tianwang and help the King of Hell reshape Fengdu. Then we will go to see Tian Yin Niangniang. After paying respect to Tian Yin Niangniang, sister will take you around to pay respect to Tian Gong, Tu Bo, and other emperors. It will be of great benefit to you!"

Qin Mu was very moved.

If you could follow a powerful emperor like Di Yiyue to visit natural gods and emperor masters, it would definitely open your eyes!

"I still have sword pills to refine..."

Qin Mu hesitated for a moment and said, "Sister, why don't you go see Lady Tianyin first? I will go to Fengdu to find you after I have refined the sword pill."

Di Yiyue smiled and said, "Alright. I will go look for Tian Shu first. He is timid and I don't know where he is hiding at the moment. Once you have refined your sword, if you can't find us in Fengdu, then we can go to Tianyin Realm."

Qin Mu nodded, and Di Yiyue also floated away.

"Long Pang, let's go to the Tujiang Factory!"

Qin Mu jumped onto Long Qilin's forehead, and Long Qilin immediately ran towards the Tujiang Supervision Factory.

In Tu Jiang's factory, the sword ball that was more than thirty feet in size had been hammered down to only ten feet. At this moment, even the giant mechanical giant could not refine the sword ball any smaller.

Qin Mu took out the wings of the Vermillion Bird and used the Holy Fire of the Vermillion Bird to refine the sword pill. He and his soul personally went into battle, hammering and refining the sword pill, using the power of the Holy Fire of the Vermillion Bird to continuously imprint his runes and magical powers into the sword pill.

After refining for more than ten days, the sword ball became three feet in size, but it was still impossible to make the sword as fast as flowing water.

Qin Mu put away the wings of the Vermillion Bird and used his divine power of heavenly fire to refine the sword pill. After another half a month of refining, the sword pill was one foot in size.

He tried to urge it on, but the circulation of his vital energy was very strenuous, and it took a lot of energy to transform the sword balls into flying swords to kill the enemies.

"I am a fellow cultivator of gods and demons, and I may need to use the devil's fire to refine myself..."

Qin Mu's heart was moved: "What will happen if I use my magic skills to activate the sky fire?"

He blinked his eyes, and immediately planned to give it a try. Suddenly he remembered something, moved the sword ball out of the factory, chose a sparsely populated place, then took out the Skyfire Prism, reversed his divine storage, and suddenly his body was filled with rolling demonic energy.

Qin Mu activated the Skyfire Prism to unleash the power of the Skyfire.

Outside the supervision factory, Long Qilin was sleeping soundly when he suddenly heard a loud noise that shook the earth. He hurriedly looked up and forced himself to open his eyes. He saw black flames rising in the sky dozens of miles away from the supervision factory.

Long Qilin yawned, stood up shakily, took two steps forward, and fell asleep again with his eyes squinted, muttering, "The leader should not die..."
