Tang Dynasty: Father, if you don't rebel, I will!

Chapter 406 The Golden Finger is Alive!

"Guanyin's maidservant~~~"

"Say something! Can you really bear to leave me all alone in the Qing Shu Palace?"

"Well, I'm not fickle, nor do I have any bad intentions. If Guanyinbi is willing to come with me to Chengdu, then I would be happy to..."

While his father was applying to the "Director of the Harem" for "field personnel," Li Chengqian was leisurely guarding his Crown Princess in the Eastern Palace.

After a busy day of government affairs, the family gathered together for dinner. Li Chengqian lay on the bed with his pregnant wife, Qian Yingying, beside him.

Just a while after the birth of her daughter, Xiao Sizi, Qian Yingying also received more good news.

Previously, it was just a casual remark about two babies, but now it has actually happened to Qian Yingying. After the imperial physician examined her pulse, it has been confirmed that Qian Yingying is carrying twins.

However, Sun Simiao was very insistent on not revealing his specific gender to anyone.

"Fifth Prince sent someone back. Apparently, that kid's been getting along quite well with Feng Jinsi lately. And with the Feng family of the Yue State Duke's Mansion pushing things along in Lingnan Province, the new policies are progressing exceptionally smoothly. This year, we're just waiting for the railway to be completed on Seventh Prince's side..."

Qian Yingying propped her head up slightly as she looked through several newly designed clothing patterns for her future baby that Li Xueyan had sent over.

Listening to his prince's rambling, he couldn't help but chuckle and was about to say something when he suddenly cried out, "Ouch!"

Startled, Li Chengqian, who had been lying casually on the bed, suddenly sprang up.

"What happened?"

He looked nervous. Qian Yingying clutched her stomach and, after calming down for a while, smiled slightly.

"I'm fine, but it seems these two little ones are getting tired of hearing it..."

As she spoke, she covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

Li Chengqian looked embarrassed and somewhat helpless. He couldn't help but mutter about government affairs whenever he had free time, and now he couldn't change this habit.

Looking at the giggling Qian Yingying, he couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

"Annoying? Looks like I'll have to get that old codger Kong Yingda to start preparing for these two little ones' early education! Annoying... I haven't even said it's annoying yet, and these two little things that aren't even born yet are already getting annoyed..."

Li Chengqian lay down again, looking at the curtains above his head, muttering to himself softly, and looked like he was about to fall into a deep sleep.

[Ding! Simulation of a multi-religious civilization on the supercontinent has ended. The civilization has perished, but its existence lasted for 4670 years.]

[Will you conduct a civilized settlement?]

"What the hell?!"

Just as Li Chengqian was about to fall asleep, his eyes widened instantly, and he sprang up from the bed again.

"Your Highness? What's wrong?"

Nearby, Qian Yingying was groggily trying to get up when Li Chengqian, realizing what was happening, quickly pressed her down.

"No, it's nothing. Yingying, you can continue sleeping. I just remembered something... You can rest assured and relax."

After comforting Qian Yingying and watching her murmur a few words of concern in her sleep before falling back into a deep sleep, Li Chengqian carefully got up, dressed, and went outside the palace.

The eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting outside the door, ready to be summoned at any time, were all taken aback when they heard the commotion and saw Li Chengqian come out of the hall.

"Alright, I'm fine. You can all continue with what you were doing..."

After leaving behind a sentence, Li Chengqian, alone with a lantern, arrived at his study in a side hall of the palace.

Close the door and turn on the light.

"Holy crap, it's finally over?!"

Since the last time this civilization settled the reward for 1500 years of continuity, Li Chengqian had wondered if something was wrong.

But each time I entered, what I saw was either the devastation and recuperation after a massive war, or a war breaking out again among different religions as the population surged to a certain point and new people replaced the old in the civilization.

Several times, Li Chengqian saw that this civilization simulation seemed to be coming to an end.

The other side miraculously survived.

As time went on, Li Chengqian grew tired of it and stopped bothering with it, as he had a lot of things to do every day.

now.......

"Settlement!"

With a thought, Li Chengqian once again entered that godlike state, wandering into the simulated world as if in a dream.

However, the scene that came into view made Li Chengqian frown deeply in an instant.

The images of ruins, corpses, and war tragedies that I had imagined did not appear. Instead, what came into view were vast expanses of dense forests, mountains, rivers, and lakes.

And a wide variety of animals and plants are growing luxuriantly.

Just as he was wondering how this civilization had come to an end, the Golden Finger immediately provided the answer.

[Civilization Type: Elementary Chaotic Civilization]

[Civilization Level: Intermediate]

[Civilization Duration: 4670 years]

[Reasons for the extinction of civilizations: large-scale wars, frequent natural disasters such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and the unsolvable spread of genetic diseases as a form of "divine punishment"]

In an instant, a large number of images flashed through Li Chengqian's mind, like a movie fast-forwarding.

In the scene, on this continent, many religious fanatics of different faiths fall and rise again in a series of wars, some open and some covert, others large-scale and reckless, with the sole purpose of destroying the other.

Although many places were in dire straits and there was no hope in sight, the entire continent's population seemed to have gone mad, clamoring for the religious deities they believed in.

The fighting continues, the death continues.

Even so, the entire civilization was not so badly wiped out as to exterminate humanity. However, as various terrifying diseases merged and mutated, they eventually gave birth to a disease called "Divine Punishment" during a larger-scale war.

They began to plunder the already dwindling population in a way that targeted only humans.

Li Chengqian: "...Divine punishment, and it only targets humans..."

Li Chengqian's expression was solemn. Although these were all simulations, as a "god" of this world, he had only seen this crazy world from the perspective of an observer, like a revolving lantern.

But he couldn't help but wonder to himself, perhaps it really was divine punishment?

[We are now initiating the civilization settlement and extraction process for the host. You will randomly select a random number of rewards from the numerous products produced during the continuation of this civilization.]

The voice of the golden finger pulled Li Chengqian back from his complicated thoughts.

A look of anticipation crept into his eyes.

The next moment, voices accompanied by streaks of golden light flew out from every corner of the simulated world like shooting stars, heading towards Li Chengqian.

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the "Unfinished Worship Mission"]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the "Skadia Sea God Cult Ruins"]

[Ding! Congratulations on acquiring "Organization: New West Secret Church Plague Research Institute"]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining "Organization - Eccentric Society"]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining "Paria Sunflower Seeds"]

Li Chengqian frowned. In the simulated world, the races were completely black and white, and the various civilizations were just like those Western medieval novels he had read in his later years.

As a result, many things are simply referred to as gods or religious names without any clear understanding of what they actually are.

He had a thought.

Immediately, the first reward information appeared in his mind.

However, Li Chengqian's eyes widened instantly.

"Fuck!"

[The Unfinished Worship Ship]: "After the outbreak of the 'Divine Punishment' plague, the 'Lavos Celestial Cult,' the most powerful religion on the continent at the time, gathered all the experts in alchemy and mechanics from the Vatican to design a super-large inflatable flying machine in order to pray for forgiveness from the gods. However, due to the rapid spread of 'Divine Punishment,' only the power system and the main internal structure could be completed before all the participants unfortunately contracted the disease and died..."

"Flying, flying, flying! An airship?!"

In the study, Li Chengqian stood up and paced back and forth excitedly, biting his fingers or gasping for breath, his face filled with shock and astonishment.

The information in his mind was clearly that of an unfinished airship with its skeleton completed and its internal power system in place.

It wasn't even inflated yet, let alone making its maiden flight.

But... those precious blueprints, and that power unit that was clearly a large internal combustion engine, made it impossible for Li Chengqian to remain calm.

The airship is definitely out of the question.

Even if he were to present this semi-finished product now, given the current industrial level of the Tang Dynasty, chemical engineering is still largely in the initial stages of transforming theory into practice, adapting practice to reality, and applying it to industry.

Not to mention the safe inert gas helium, they couldn't even produce hydrogen for the "flying bomb".

but.

If we hand over the original internal combustion engine to the Imperial University and let them decipher and study it, we can reverse-engineer it.

Li Chengqian believed that the Tang Dynasty would once again experience a terrifying industrial boom.

[Skadia Sea God Relics]: "The Skadi Sea God Cult, a religious civilization born from the maritime system on the edge of the continent, possessed an advantage in navigation surpassing all other civilizations. Although a terrible volcanic eruption and wars with surrounding religions brought the Skadi Sea God Cult to the past, its excellent systems of navigation, astronomy, and meteorology were inherited by other religions. The ruins contain a wealth of navigational texts."

Li Chengqian glanced at it casually. It was useful, but its value was far less than that terrifying worship proclamation.

[Organization - New Westmiic Plague Research Institute]: "Established based on the doctrines of the lost Westmiic plague treatment center in this world, this medical and religious organization researches plagues. They believe that plagues are fragments of divine power scattered across the earth, and therefore possess more comprehensive and systematic knowledge in virus analysis, preservation, and treatment. It has 1 related personnel."

Li Chengqian nodded in satisfaction; the little dwarfs of Japan were in for a treat.

Ten thousand people would definitely alleviate the current shortage of medical professionals in the Tang Dynasty.

[Organization - The Eccentrics' Society]: "An organization that sought to overturn life and death, dedicated to researching various bizarre phenomena from around the world. Designated a cult by multiple religions and subsequently destroyed. It comprised 400 highly skilled individuals proficient in basic electrical engineering, human histology, zoology, botany, medicine, and virology."

Li Chengqian: "......"

Electricity, electrical engineering?!
