Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1442: Zombie
The terracotta figurines were sent urgently by the submarine of the Athenian Navy. They were the same type as the two terracotta figurines of Daozu in Yuxi Palace.

Although it looks like a Terracotta Warrior at first glance, it can still be dressed up if you put on clothes outside.

The submarine was parked in a water tank in the courtyard of Shangluo's house. After unloading, the submarine sank again.

"So this is actually a coffin." Phaethon unloaded the goods himself and moved the things into the house.

"Hmm," Victoria went up and knocked on it, "It's actually solid?"

"After all, this is not the armor we use to hold souls. This is a magical weapon. I think that Governor Yuan is really unlucky to have to enter here."

"I heard that he could actually do an easier job and not torture himself. Why does he have to wear this?"

"Some people have a high sense of responsibility for their work, which is different from us. They don't get their current jobs by virtue of their parents' status, but by passing their own exams."

Unlike Victoria, Governor Yuan will certainly value his job more and be more responsible for it - he has finally come to where he is today, and his political career over the past few decades has been for this day.

The experience of being a frontier official is completely different from other official positions. An official who can be called a frontier official is the agent of the entire court within his jurisdiction. No one is below him, and no one is equal to him. Everything here is decided by him.

At the same time, this is different from the vassal kings of tributary states - governing a region with a high level of civilization is different from governing a region with a low level of civilization. The kings of Joseon have been staying in Yingtian all the time and rarely go back. This is their own choice, not forced by the court to stay here.

After Joseon entered the Xuanzheng state, the person who replaced the Joseon king was the prime minister of Joseon, or Xuanzhengshi, which was the same position with two names. To Joseon, he was the prime minister of the Joseon king. To the court and the entire Joseon country, he was the chief of the Joseon territory.

In terms of psychological comfort, this position is similar to that of the Grand Commander of Beiting - this kind of happiness is simply unimaginable to the kings of those tributary states.

Although from a personal enjoyment point of view, it is certainly more comfortable to be a local tyrant who can "open a private server" in his own territory. However, the North Korean Prime Minister also has a different flavor, because the survival mode is also an exciting way to play.

The situation is even more different for the Grand Commander of Beiting. As a frontier official of the upper country, the Grand Commander of Beiting is faced with an endless road to power. Considering that the emperor himself governs the world with emptiness and tranquility, it means that officials at this level and above can share the power to govern the world.

No matter how happy the king of a vassal state is, he is only enjoying his own little piece of land. The governor of a frontier province is involved in the governance of the entire world.

Governor Yuan had finally gotten this position - although this position did not include entering the cabinet, he could attend and speak when the cabinet held enlarged meetings and when the cabinet discussed issues related to Beiting. He could also exert his influence on the court through his relatives and friends.

50 years old is the golden age for a minister like him. If he had to retreat at this time because of injury, he would never want to do it. Ambition is the best painkiller. No matter how serious the illness is, he will stand up. He still has a lot of things to do and many ambitions to realize.

"He really, really works hard." Victoria whispered, "I don't think I have the qualifications to judge him."

"I'm not much better than you. He's much more dedicated than me. Sometimes I wonder if I've become a useless person after taking a break here for so long after experiencing setbacks in life."

"You are considered a worthless fish, so what am I? I feel like I am far from being an emperor."

"Oh? Can you still find out that you are far from the emperor?"

"I'm just doing things based on my own interests. But my own interests are of no help to the empire, but he can make pills! He's amazing!"

"He's not that good." Zhu Ling shook her head. "He likes to pass the buck."

"for example?"

"For example, when he sneaked out, he said he was buying something for me. He insisted on putting it on me. He was 12 years older than me. I was too young at the time. I just listened to whatever he said."

"But I don't have a brother like this." Victoria sighed, "Forget it if I have a brother. It's better not to have one. If I have a brother, it won't be my turn to be the Roman emperor, so forget it."

"Let me ask first." Zhu Ling pointed at the figurine and asked, "Do you have something similar there? I wasn't with Shangluo when he took action. It sounds like he has seen it?"

Phaethon waved his hand: "In fact, they were the ones who just delivered the goods."

"So that's it?!"

The crew members on the submarine looked so natural that Zhu Ling didn't realize they were fake. Thinking about it this way, it seemed like this was not just the first time they met.

"I thought they were just in uniform."

"No, there's no one underneath, it's just a set of armor. Yours seems to be heavier?"

Although I don’t know what the final effect will be, at least the goods were delivered.

The next morning, in Zhu Xianxin's office, Governor Yuan also saw where he would be staying for the next period of time.

Originally, there was no need to do this kind of thing in Zhu Xianxi's office. But for confidentiality reasons, Zhu Xianxi called Governor Yuan over as soon as the morning exercises were over. Shangluo was naturally here as well.

Governor Yuan knocked on the figurine with his hand, and it made a bang bang sound. It was not a metallic sound, but a dull sound like knocking on jade. After all, only thin pieces of jade are crisp when knocked. Knocking on such a large piece is almost the same as knocking on a stone. It's just that the material of jade is more delicate and uniform, so the sound produced by knocking is more harmonious.

"So, I'm going to stay in here from now on?"

Shangluo nodded: "Jade is a good conductor of spiritual energy. Spirit figurines made of jade can preserve the senses to the greatest extent."

"Why does it sound like I'm trapped in a golden jade suit?"

After a night of thinking, Governor Yuan looked much better than yesterday.

When he heard the news yesterday, Governor Yuan was shocked because it happened so suddenly. But today, Governor Yuan not only looked radiant, but also looked very happy.

"General Yuan, did you figure it out when you went back yesterday?" Shangluo asked.

"My wife and children are very supportive of me doing this. They thought that they were going to lose me in less than a year. Although I can only stay here for the time being, at least we can keep in touch, which is better than losing me completely."

It is of course sad to have only three days left to live, but three days plus half a life to continue is better than dying in a year.

Moreover, he did think about this question last night - if he really died in a year, would he be able to use such treatment? The answer is unknown. Because even at his level, there are still more than a hundred people on par with him, and many of them are in poor health. Thinking of this, he also brought up this question today.

"I just have a question - Your Majesty, and Lord Shang Tian, ​​if I hadn't taken the pill yesterday and turned into this, but was dying in half a year, would I still be able to get this kind of medical treatment?"

"Yes." Zhu Xianxi got a clear answer, "Of course you can get it."

"That's good." It seemed that his seat was still good. At least he sat in the required seat when he needed it.

"I do feel a little sorry for you. If I had known you were ill, I should have given you a panacea. There would be no need to use this method to treat you."

"Ah?" Governor Yuan had just prepared himself mentally, thinking that he had made a good deal, but Zhu Xianxun immediately pulled him into the cold water again, "So we already have medicine that can cure all diseases?"

"Yes." Zhu Xianxi's expression was very apologetic. "Indeed, it has been found. Although I am still experimenting, animal experiments and small-scale experiments on patients have been completed. The 'disease' as a whole will soon be cured. The relevant experiments will definitely be completed within half a year. So I am really sorry, if you really get sick in half a year, then you can just take the panacea after half a year, there is no need to put yourself into this."

"No, no, no, Your Majesty, there is no need to apologize. I just... I just..." Governor Yuan covered his forehead, not knowing what to say, "I just had bad luck."

Who else could he blame except his bad luck? He couldn't blame the emperor for giving him the wrong medicine.

Although the emperor rules the world with emptiness and tranquility, the emperor is still the emperor, and even if the emperor is wrong, he is right.

"This time, it's my fault."

"No, no, no, it's my fault."

"It's my fault."

"It's my fault."

"Don't blame me." Shang Luo covered his forehead, "or it's all my fault. I brought the medicine back, but I didn't realize that it was so powerful, so I gave it to the emperor. So blame me. Look, Governor Yuan, I also found this substitute for you so that you can continue to work. Consider it as an apology."

"This is unacceptable."

when--

The sound of a chime echoed around the crowd. Several people stopped.

"Uh," Zhu Xianxi whispered, "I think what Daozu meant was, blame him. Daozu taught me the art of alchemy, so he is responsible for my poor performance."

"Who is Daozu?" Governor Yuan was aware of the existence of Daozu at his level, he just didn't know who Daozu was specifically - he had a 70% guess, but hadn't verified it.

He changed the wing-flapping gesture and flew westward, into the sky.

Zhu Xianxi nodded: "That's the one."

Commander Yuan immediately bowed to the direction where the chimes came from and said, "Your humble servant pays homage to the Supreme Great Heavenly Immortal Zi Ji, the Immortal of Immortality, the Holy Wisdom, the Spiritual Leader, the Three Yuans, the Chief of the Jade Void, the Great Master of the Five Thunders, the Emperor of Xuandu Realm, the Longevity Emperor!"

when--

Another chime sounded, and that was the answer.

[How did this person memorize it? I didn’t memorize it either! ]

"Otherwise, how can he be the governor?"

Every one of those who have been promoted to this position is not a simple person. They are all very powerful, and Shangluo has already seen this.

"Okay." Zhu Xianxun finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Originally, this matter was very serious. After all, this is the first extraordinary medical accident."

Although there was an accident with the spirit before, it was not a medical accident, but an experimental accident. In the end, although he was left with only his soul due to the uncontrollable side effects, this was also a last resort and could only be regarded as a failure of treatment.

This time, although Governor Yuan was ill, Shangluo and Zhu Xianxun did not come to cure him, but ended up killing him. If this matter were weighed, it would be a thousand pounds.

Fortunately, this time the "ancestor" himself took the blame, so the nature of the problem is easy to explain.

As for the specific details, Governor Yuan himself was not dissatisfied. Just go in, with the support of his wife and children, he had nothing to fear.

"Come to think of it." Zhu Xianxi suddenly remembered, "I invited Governor Yuan over as soon as the morning court session ended today, because I didn't want his colleagues to know about this. Shangluo, are you prepared to let him disguise his identity? After all, this terracotta warrior is still too unlike a human being."

"How long will this remain a secret?"

"At least half a year." Zhu Xianxun replied, "After the panacea is developed, these will no longer be kept secret. Because by then, people with urgent illnesses will not need to rush to grab the Half-Immortal Pill now, they can just take the panacea directly. Unless the disease is too serious and they can't wait for half a year, I will consider using these pills as a medical treatment for them."

"If it takes half a year, it's easy." Shang Luo nodded and said, "Then let Governor Yuan take office as soon as possible. Then, Governor Yuan, let me ask you, do you know how to put on makeup?"

"Makeup?" Governor Yuan was stunned for a moment. "I have lived for more than ten years and have never put on makeup on my face. Is this really possible?"

"That lady."

"My good-for-nothing son does. He knows how to do this, and he smears it all day long."

"That's fine. I won't ask your son why he can do this. If your son has nothing to do, let him accompany you to Beiting to take up your post in the next six months, and then let him put on makeup for you every day. I have a bottle of paint made of mirage here." Shangluo took out another small bottle:

"Using these paints to put on makeup can at least make it look real. Before you go out every day, let your son use these mirage paints to paint your face, at least you can look like a human. By the way, let your son be careful not to let any parts fall off when you walk."
