Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 379 Story
Under the shade of the tree next to the vending machine, Zheng Shijie was holding a bottle of coconut juice he had just bought and handed one to Shangluo.

Zheng Shijie is his name.But now it is no longer used anywhere, except on ID cards.When signing or signing his name on weekdays, as Marquis of Yanping, his written name is "Guo surname Shijie", just like his original surname is "Guo surname".

"Guo Xing is here today. I heard that you are here to visit our motorcade?"

"No, I came here specifically to see you. Someone else came to visit the motorcade, but I came here specifically for you. Well, it's the first time you saw me. Did you observe anything?"

"You seem younger than your real age?"

This was Shangluo's first impression of him.Although it is not easy to see age changes under the age of 28, he and Zhu Xianden are of the same age, but he looks obviously younger than Zhu Xianden.

"I knew you were going to ask this - I think the answer that most people can guess is: the moment I was promoted to heaven, my physical condition was pushed forward to 16 years old, and now I just grew up again. That’s all.”

"What about the real answer?"

"The real answer is that I have been taking large doses of elixirs to make my physical state look younger. My research on elixirs started a long time ago. The moment I became a celestial being, my hair only turned gray. That’s all. Based on this, do you think it’s weird that I’m wearing a hat? Do you think that I should expose my white hair to be consistent with my personality?”

Having said that, Shangluo did feel that something was wrong - although it was said to be a secret, almost everyone knew it.Everyone he knew felt that Guo Xing was a person who "aspired to ascend to immortality, tried, and actually succeeded for a moment."People also feel that even now, Guo Xing misses that moment.

But in his current situation, he doesn't seem to want to show his hair that much.All of his hair was contained in a peaked cap, and only some of it could be seen from the temples.

"You think it's strange, don't you? Then let me ask you, how did Aye mention me? I said it was His Majesty the Holy Emperor."

"Senior brother, when he mentioned you, Guo Xing, he didn't say anything special. He was just describing in detail the two of you refining alchemy. So, Guo Xing, you don't really want to cultivate immortality?"

"No, I want to become an immortal more than it seems. But that doesn't mean I have to write my goals on my face - except when I'm doing business. When I'm doing business, a person who is 'enthusiastic about investing in the method of cultivating immortals' People are my personality. Occasionally I have to use this personality to run a business, such as launching a shampoo that uses spiritual fluid. It may not be reliable for others to do it, but if I say it was made by me, everyone will think that I did it. It fits the personality and brand positioning.”

Shangluo understood.
"So the previous one was a story? It was a true story. Guo Xing, are you telling your own story?"

"An incisive answer, worthy of being our distant relative from another world. It seems that this kind of thing is already very common in your place. But here, the media is far less developed than yours. I am almost the first one." People who use the media to do this - but storytelling is an ancient craft. Xu Shao criticizes characters and makes them widely known, relying on stories. So Cao Cao threatened Xu Shao and made him evaluate himself as The story of 'a capable minister in times of trouble, a hero in troubled times'. In my opinion, this 'threat' itself is part of the story."

"So, Guo, you are a storyteller?"

"The essence of doing business is to tell stories. If someone believes in your dream, people will be happy to sponsor your dream. In Lanfang Company, a century-old store with a mature structure, there is no complicated work for me to do. My most important job is to tell stories on behalf of Lanfang. And these stories I tell have only one purpose: to become an immortal."

This is an answer that is beyond Shangluo's expectations, but also reasonable.

From the first level, Guo Xing wants to become an immortal.If you look a few floors inside, his motives will be somewhat obvious, but it is conducive to the dissemination of information. Overall, it is a bit complicated.But putting everything aside and looking at it from the top, he has only one motive from beginning to end - to become an immortal. "So, are all those stories true?"

"Of course. I am a storyteller, not a liar. Although there are some exaggerations, it is all true. I just want others to believe in my dream. This is very important to Lanfang Company. And our next story , the story of all of us will be based on the picture you created for us. But this morning I heard that there seemed to be some glitches. "

"So it turns out that Guo Xing came so early because of this matter?"

"Of course." Guo Xing smiled, "Actually, my schedule is quite tight. I came early because I wanted to see if you were in a hurry - I saw that you were not in a hurry when you arrived, so I knew you would hold on. Your Excellency, Shijun, you know it well. I feel at ease. So, is there anything I can do to help you? Aye told me before that you need some sponsorship?"

"So, that's it." Shangluo explained.

"That's it." Guoxing nodded, "Your thinking is very clear. In the early stage of the operation of the Gate of Ten Thousand Phases, you need some help. Because not everyone can get fun from it, and some people need some other incentives. That’s it. After players form a community, the ecology of the Gate of All Appearances will be established. So during this period, do you need some assistance from me?”

"Exactly."

"Well" he thought for a while, "First of all, I can say: I will help you no matter what. I will help you repair the Tower of Babel - but, I may need you to tell me a story. I want to know , what ultimate attraction is waiting for us in the 'Gate of Ten Thousand Appearances'? Cao Cao wants to tell stories, and Buddhists also use koans to tell stories and put their own principles in them. So... Your Excellency Chi Shijun , what’s your story?”

As a storyteller, Guoxing made his request directly—or in other words, he hoped Shangluo could state his vision.

"What kind of story do you want me to tell you?"

"I hope this story can be the 'perfect answer' that fascinates all of us. This story should be able to convince other people in Lanfang Company, and even all Qi practitioners, and provide everyone with a vision - the thought of being able to' "Having it, I can't help but want to spend time, take out my wallet, and walk on the same road with you."

"So, my story is this." Shangluo took a deep breath, "Through a god named Helios, an artifact called the Spear of the Sun, the experience value in the Gate of All Phases can be refined. Make the elixir and take it out to eat. In other words: we can practice the elixir immediately. This is the fundamental purpose of establishing the Gate of Ten Thousand Phases."

"Wait a minute, the cultivation elixir refers to"

"It means that every minute of time you spend in the Gate of Ten Thousand Appearances is valuable. They can be converted into real cultivation, and then extracted in the form of elixirs. You can upgrade after eating them."

Zheng Shijie took a breath: "An unparalleled story!"

"Aren't you afraid that the surname is fake?"

"The story doesn't matter whether it's true or false. As long as there are enough people who believe it, it can become true. Your story has convinced me. And I want to believe it is true. Cultivation Pill, this is something that no one can refuse It’s a story that can represent everyone’s life. If it can really be made, I must be the first to try it. This is my private flying signal. If you have anything, you can contact me directly. Anything is fine."
