System invasion, Queen fights monsters to upgrade, kills the system

Xu Zhoujiao was in a dilemma facing the leader of the guard of honor who had an expectant look on his face.

In full view of the public, he would sit on a five-foot-high statue platform and be carried around the city three times by a guard of honor.

Xu Zhoujiao twisted her body and expressed her resistance.

If no one can see me normally, then there's nothing wrong with sitting there.

But now everyone in the city can see me, which is a different matter!

The people around were anxious as they saw that the new City God was taking a long time to go up to the statue platform, fearing that he would miss the time.

Everyone surrounded Xu Zhoujiao and said nice things to her, coaxing her to go up to the statue stand.

The old lady who had brought justice from heaven squeezed in front of the crowd, called out to the people, and expressed her thoughts: "Please everyone, be quiet. Listen to what I have to say."

"No matter how powerful our new City God is, she is still a little girl after all, and she has a thin skin."

"I've lived for so many years, my face is as thick as a city wall. Let alone going around the city three times, even if I were asked to walk around in front of everyone three times, I would be so embarrassed that I wouldn't be able to take even a single step."

"I suggest that we carry this golden lotus and go around the city. Let our new City God ride a tall horse in front to lead the way, and we will follow the City God together."

"OK?"

As soon as this idea came out, it was unanimously recognized by the people of Kyoto and Xu Zhoujiao.

The people feel that it is their blessing to have a City God who is willing to get along with them, which shows that the new City God cares about them.

Xu Zhoujiao thought that this was a great opportunity for her to get closer to the people so that she could better understand their lives in the future.

The problem with the statue stand has been solved, but the question now is, whose horse to ride?

The people, who had finally reached a consensus, were once again furious.

Everyone rushed to offer ideas.

Those who came on horseback took the initiative to come forward and recommend their horses to Xuzhou Jiao. Even Xuzhou Chuang quietly joined the recommendation team.

Xu Zhoujiao was once again surrounded by the chattering people.

She had a strong feeling that this kind of thing would become a common occurrence for her in the future...

Just when Xu Zhoujiao was unable to make a decision, a voice suddenly came from a distance: "My queen, Tong Tong and Zhen Zhu are here to help you!"

The people turned around when they heard the sound.

They saw the director of the Imperial Observatory, an ordinary official, riding a white donkey and running towards them at lightning speed.

Pinggong got off the donkey, led Zhenzhu to Xuzhoujiao, and said, "My lady, Pinggong has arrived just in time."

"No ordinary horse can match your style today."

Tonggong held his head high and patted Pearl beside him, saying, "Look, Tonggong brought Pearl to you!"

These words shocked the people present and made them stare wide-eyed. They couldn't believe what they heard:

Mr. Supervisor, are you sure you are not here to cause trouble?

Yes, ordinary horses are indeed not worthy of the new city god, but your donkey is even worse than a horse...

Before the people could finish muttering in their hearts, Zhenzhu stomped her little front hooves, calling a gust of wind that wrapped her up.

After the wind died down, a snow-white Bai Ze with a lion's body and goat's horns appeared in everyone's eyes.

The people watching collectively swallowed their saliva and silently completed the sentence in their hearts: Compared with this donkey, no horse is worthy of the City God...

Pearl shook her big head and said to Xuzhou Jiao, "My Lady, please come up quickly. Pearl will carry you."

Xu Zhoujiao patted Ordinary's shoulder and said, "We Ordinary are still reliable!"

After saying that, she tapped her toes lightly, flipped over and jumped onto Pearl's back.

Tong Pu stood beside Zhenzhu and shouted, "New City God, it's time to patrol the city!"

The people behind him shouted: "The City God is patrolling the city, eliminating disasters and difficulties, and the weather is good~"

Xu Zhoujiao rode the high-spirited Bai Ze and led the way, with the guard of honor carrying Jin Lian following closely behind.

The people followed happily behind.

The long queue of people set off in a mighty manner.

Entered Kyoto city.

The people who were following behind ran back to their homes, took out the flowers and red silk they had prepared, and threw them to Xuzhou Jiao.

As they threw the balls, they offered their blessings to Xuzhou Jiao:

"Lord City God, we wish you all the best and a safe and smooth life."

"Lord City God, may you no longer have any worries!"

"Lord City God, may you always be beautiful and happy."

"Lord City God, may you be blessed with longevity and good fortune."

......

It should have been a session of laying flowers and praying for blessings, but the people forced it to change it to laying flowers and blessing on Xuzhou Jiao.

As the team moves forward.

Xu Zhoujiao noticed a thin woman in the corner, holding a pale child in her arms, and standing on tiptoe.

Trying hard to squeeze into the crowd.

Xu Zhoujiao was afraid that the woman and the child would be pushed down by the crowd, so she quickly motioned to Pinggong beside her to go over and take a look.

After a while, Pu Tong came to Xu Zhou Jiao with the child and the woman.

The pale child seemed a little shy. He tightly grasped the wreath in his hand and looked at Xu Zhoujiao secretly.

Seeing Xu Zhoujiao smiling at him, two clouds of shame appeared on the child's pale cheeks.

Xu Zhoujiao pointed at the wreath in his hand and said softly, "This wreath is so beautiful. Is it for me?"

The child nodded immediately, stretched out his slender arms, and handed the wreath to Xu Zhoujiao.

"I made this, it's very beautiful, I'm giving it to the City God."

The woman at the side had tears in her eyes. She stroked her child's head and said to Xu Zhoujiao, "This child heard that the City God was going to inspect the city, so he went outside the city early this morning to pick flowers and made a wreath."

"He said he wanted to give it to you personally."

After saying this, the woman turned her head away and secretly wiped away her tears.

Her child didn't have much time left.

The child heard the adults say that the new City God was a woman.

For this year's parade, we must prepare something different to give to the City God.

The child kept these words in mind.

He kept begging me to take him to pick flowers. He wanted to make the most beautiful wreath and give it to the City God.

Xu Zhoujiao looked at the child's big eyes full of sincerity and expectation, took the wreath with both hands, and put it directly around her neck.

Her action was the best response to the mother and son.

When the child saw his wreath being worn around Xu Zhoujiao's neck, his pale face suddenly turned rosy.

Having achieved his goal, he happily stretched out his hands to his mother.

The woman also smiled happily. She took the child from Tong's arms, bowed to Xu Zhoujiao, and left the crowd.

The woman returned to her original corner, hugged her child tightly, looked at the team that was moving away, and shed tears.

Until a small hand gently stroked her face.

The woman wiped her tears and looked at her child.

"My dear Tiger, is your chest hurting again? Mommy can rub it for you."

Tiger Boy shook his head at his mother and replied in a baby voice, "Mom, Tiger Boy's chest doesn't seem to hurt anymore."

"It really doesn't hurt anymore."

When the woman heard her child say that it didn't hurt, she quickly put the child on her lap and put her ear against the child's chest.

"Thump~thump~"

The sound of strong heartbeats reached the woman's ears.

The woman raised her head in surprise and looked at her child with joy.

She listened to it back and forth several times.

She shed tears of joy until she was sure that her child was really okay.

The woman put the child down and kowtowed again and again in the direction Xu Zhoujiao left.

Thank you, sir. Thank you so much.

Xu Zhoujiao continued to patrol the streets, touching the wreath around her neck, happily welcoming the flowers thrown to her by the crowd.
