Chapter 124: Myths and Legends [17th Update]

"Pingyang Baron's Mansion!" When the summoning beast cart finally stopped, and Mu Tian was pushed out of the car, Mu Tian raised his head and saw a vermilion gate, and a plaque with five big characters written "Pingyang Baron's Mansion" was hung on this gate.

[PS: This chapter is an explanation of the basic setting of this world, and I recommend you take a closer look. 】

"This is Baron Binh Duong's home! That old man is from the Binh Duong Baron's Mansion!! It wasn't until this time that Mu didn't understand who had caught him.

Having said that, we have to mention the power composition of the Shenmu Continent.

It is said that in the ancient flood time, there were no humans in this world, only poisonous beasts were rampant.

And these did not change until more than 10,000 years ago, the god of the Divine Tree descended from the sky and planted a towering tree in the center of the world, known as the Imperial Divine Tree, which is the ancestor of all the sacred trees in the Shenmu Continent, and is the core of the Divine Tree in the continent.

And the Imperial Divine Tree gave birth to 12 seeds, which were planted in various positions on the Divine Tree Continent at the direction of 12 hours, and grew into twelve sacred trees second only to the Imperial Divine Tree, and these sacred trees are called Ding Shenmu.

The 12 Dingshen trees continued to be nurtured, and six seeds were born respectively, which were scattered around the Dingshen wood, a total of 72 trees, which were called Zhongshen trees.

This Zhongshen Tree continued to produce seeds, each tree gave birth to 12 seeds, and once again scattered around the Zhongshen Tree, it became known as the Tile Divine Tree.

And the tile god wood can still give birth to seeds, but they will not give birth to any fixed number, but each of them will give birth to a different number of seeds, scattered and grown around, and finally grow into a Shu god tree.

Hawkers, I believe that when you see this, you will feel extremely dizzy, and you don't know what you said.

Then let's put it simply, the sacred wood in Gujia Village is the Shu Shenmu, and the Shenmu in Pingyang County is the tile Shenmu, the Leiyang County belonging to Pingyang City is the Zhong Shenmu, and the Shenmu in Yangzhou City, which Leiyang County belongs, and the Yushenmu is in the imperial capital, here everyone should understand the origin of these sacred trees.

Returning to the legend of 10,000 years ago, it is said that after all the sacred trees were planted, each divine tree automatically produced two baby fruits, a man and a woman, and when these baby fruits fell to the ground, the first human beings in the Shenmu Continent were born.

And with the birth of these babies, the hierarchy of human beings is inherently fixed.

A man and a woman born from the strongest Imperial Divine Wood are His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty the Empress of the First Empire of Shenmu, and the baby born from Ding Shenmu has become a duke and a couple in the city of the Twelve Prefectures. Zhong Shenmu's is the marquis and his wife in the county town, and the one who is tile Shenmu is the baron and his wife, and as for those children of Shu Shenmu, they are the common people.

All in all, the newborn human rank is inherently predestined, and it seems that humans are also born to obey the bondage and leadership system of this level, and when they are born, they also come with the fruit of the system, and they are born players.

Since you were born in this world, you naturally have to survive. At this time, it is the poisonous beasts that dominate the world, and in the face of the sudden appearance of humans, these poisonous beasts are naturally regarded as the enemies of life and death, and want to completely wipe out all human beings.

What followed was a 2,000-year-long era known as the "Ode to the Flood" by later generations, in which humans fought countless battles, rising from level 0 to level 100, from weak to strong. Although he did not destroy the poisonous beasts in the end, he established one city after another, and at the same time, let the human race multiply from generation to generation, and finally became one of the dominant races of this continent.

Later, although the First Empire collapsed, the second, third, until the emergence of the Seventh Empire from generation to generation, but the aristocratic system of this world still follows the aristocratic system of the First Empire era, and only when you get the control and use of the Shenmu to which the title belongs, can you become a nobleman.

In other words, the title of nobility is not conferred by His Majesty the Emperor, but only the baby fruit that grows from the divine tree other than the one in Gujia Village is eligible to inherit the title and become the nobleman of this world, and at the same time become the actual controller of the city to which the divine tree belongs.

Take the "Pingyang Baron's Mansion" in front of you as an example, as the symbol of Pingyang City, the Pingyang Tile Shenmu is in the core of the Pingyang Baron's Mansion, and is guarded by the cronies of the Pingyang Baron's Mansion, and ordinary people can't even look at it.

And the role of this tile divine wood is not only for the Pingyang Baron's Mansion to inherit the ancestry, but also to control all the subsidiary divine trees in the entire Pingyang City, such as the transfer of the divine wood, the medical divine wood, the forging divine wood, the gold and silver divine wood, the strengthening of the divine wood and other divine trees, as well as the Shenmu array that guards the entire Pingyang City, are all controlled by this tile divine tree.

And the most important thing is that through this Pingyang tile divine tree, Baron Pingyang can also control all the Shu divine trees under Pingyang City, to put it mildly. As long as this Pingyang Baron controls the Wa Shenmu, he will be able to make the fruits of the Shushenmu in any subordinate village, such as making the baby fruits that are not yet ripe fall in advance, and making all the system fruits disappear.

And once this happens, those babies who have not yet matured will naturally die early, and it is impossible for the village to give birth to new players. To put it mildly, this baron can wipe out a village with just one thought.

Because of the loss of the Divine Tree, the entire village will be completely lifeless.

However, on the other hand, the Pingyang tile Shenmu is also controlled by the higher-level Leiyang Zhong Shenmu, and the Leiyang Zhongshenmu is controlled by the higher Yangzhou Ding Shenmu, and in the end, all the rights come down to the Yushenmu.

In addition, Baron Pingyang can also use Pingyang Washenmu to issue some tasks and control some rules, which is the existence of truly controlling the entire Pingyang City, and its ability to control the entire city is not weaker than the government on the earth.

And this kind of control is not like the earth government, which needs to rely on people to control, the baron only needs to use a divine tree to control the entire city, the administrative cost is small and pitiful, and the authority is also afraid.

——————————

To get back to the point, when Mu Tian found out that he was sent to the Pingyang Baron's Mansion and was also imprisoned in the dungeon of the Pingyang Baron's Mansion, the whole person was a little confused, and he didn't know when he offended the terrifying authority of the Pingyang Baron.

When Mu Tian's head returned to normal and began to run at full speed, Mu Tian, who had just been locked in the dungeon for less than an hour, was invited out by the old man before, and after a while of turning left and right, he was taken to a small pavilion with elegant scenery.

There, Lin Ankang, the little girl who came back from Mu Tian, was holding the thigh of a middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man looked at Lin Ankang with pity.

"Brother!" As soon as Mu Tian's figure appeared, Lin Ankang suddenly felt something, let go of the middle-aged man's thigh, and ran towards Mu Tian happily. It was only at this time that Mu Tian discovered that Lin Ankang had changed his clothes at this time, and the bloody little dress just now was gone, replaced by a set of emerald green princess dresses, plus a pair of cute double ponytails fluttering in the wind behind his head.

Yes! What a cute little Lori!
