[66] Balanced epic chapter(1/2)

The praises attracted the attention of the tribes at the front and back.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Zhou Li'an immediately ordered the knights of the guard to control the situation to avoid chaos as soon as they set off.

After he asked everyone to stand up, he led Shanshan aside: "You have a heavy responsibility, do you understand now?"

"My lord, I understand when I climb a mountain."

Zhou Li'an turned to look behind him, and after two hours of journey, the settlement ruins left by the tribe outside Tushi Valley were still clearly visible.

There's nothing you can do about it.

Leaving the old and the young alone will only lead to the collapse of the godhead. People's illusions about gods are positive. If it is a waste of life and death, then why do mortals worship the true God?

The remarks just made can be regarded as a patch for the tribal people's understanding of gods; "birth, old age, illness and death" are all inevitable for mortals, and only those who have made such great achievements can be blessed with "eternal life".

In other words, if anyone is going to die along the way, my lord, Ji-Jiang, will not use the 'Great Resurrection Spell', as mortals are not worthy.

Of course, my Lord is also merciful.

The deceased enjoys the honor of being led by our Lord and opening the door to the afterlife.

As for where the door to the afterlife is...

Hahaha, ask Jesus, where is the gate to heaven?

Things about gods are inherently illusory.

Zhou Li Ansheng has a system that can achieve half-truths and half-deceptions, and in a sense, the performance of various system functions is undoubtedly a miracle.

In the Bible, there is Exodus and Moses opened the sea.

Then in China, there is the True Monarch Erlang who cut down a mountain to save his mother.

Who has seen it with their own eyes?

But it's different on the side of the Lord of Balance. Our Lord waves his hand and gives food, creates horses, and can even make people "eternal life."

There will also be aircraft and cannons in the future.

The name of the true God must not be blasphemed or defiled. Anyone who blasphemes will be shot to death.

Zhou Li'an withdrew his gaze from afar, and then ordered to climb the mountain: "Bring the cow dung, I have a decree."

Not long after, he climbed up the mountain and arrived carrying cow dung.

He seemed to have cried, because his father's face was a little pale when he climbed the mountain.

Zhou Li'an's whip was very powerful and he was very cruel. He wanted to let the tribesmen know the concept of clear rewards and punishments, and it was best to use mountain climbing as a teaching case.

Niu Shi must have inquired about the situation, and was lifted off the saddle by the mountain climber. Then he sprinted over, knelt down and kowtowed: "My lord, please forgive my father's sins. Niu Shi is willing to take the punishment for his father."

Shan Shan was about to scold him when he was forced to retreat by a look from Zhou Li'an, who then lowered his head.

Zhou Li'an let Niu Shi stand up and smiled: "Niu Shi, you have the courage to share the crime and punishment for your father, which is worthy of praise; but why don't you learn to share responsibilities for him so that he can reduce the mistakes he makes?"

"My lord, cow shit is willing, but cow shit won't."

Zhou Li'an waved his hand, and a mechanical watch appeared in his hand. It was a basic model with automatic winding. After winding up the clockwork, he adjusted the time and asked, "Do you remember how I taught you to know the time?"

Regarding the understanding of time, Zhou Li'an has taught it to Xue Nu, and Xue Nu has taught it to several children.

However, there is only one clock placed in Zhou Li'an's residence.

Because when the Kingdom of Balance was established, he would definitely establish a calendar belonging to Balance, so he did not popularize the concept of time among the tribes.

The dials use Arabic numerals of course.

It will also be used in the future teaching of knowledge in various disciplines. Zhou Li'an does not plan to make any innovations, so he will just justify himself...

Arabic numerals were created by the Indians and introduced to Europe by the Arabs; but the real modern numeral writing methods of 1, 2, and 3 were gradually improved and evolved by later mathematicians.

There is no need to talk nonsense about the Lord of Balance having come to India; by the time the Balance unified the world, the mathematical attainments of the People of Balance were already hundreds of years ahead of other countries of the same era.

You said you created it, how come you don't even know "linear algebra"?

The Lord of Balance has given me "The Divine Method of Mathematics in the Book of Balance". You, an Indian Asan, still dare to blaspheme our Lord, Balance?

History is always written by the victors.

When the time comes to apply for World Heritage status as soon as possible, who dares to say no?

Niu Shi looked at the exquisite watch and was surprised. The wall clock they used when studying was much larger than this watch.

"My lord, I remember how to read the watch; it is now... 10:25."

Zhou Li'an nodded with satisfaction and patted his head in approval: "From now on, you will be responsible for calculating time and telling your father the starting and stopping instructions."

"Every two hours of travel, the migration team stops for 30 minutes."

"Next time we set off at 11 o'clock sharp, then tell me when will we stop and when will we start again?"

Niu Shi was a little panicked, counting on his fingers, and finally said tentatively: "My lord, we will stop at 13 o'clock and set off at 13:30."

Zhou Li'an said: "Very good, if you don't make any mistakes, this watch will be rewarded to you later."

Say it.

He waved to climb the mountain: "Next, when to stop and when to start, all are arranged by cow shit. All you have to do is to follow his arrangement and ask the knights to notify the various ministries to stop and start."

"At the same time, arrange for knights to patrol and pay attention to the situation of the tribesmen."

"Now you send people to explore the various tribes, old and young, pregnant women, and the infirm can ride in carriages, and the speed of migration must not be delayed."

Zhou Li'an estimated that the traveling speed is about 3 kilometers per hour and about 6 kilometers every two hours.

At this speed, starting at 6 a.m. every morning and stopping at 6 p.m., we can walk about 30 kilometers a day.

The total length of the explored route on the system map is 490 kilometers. The route is not a straight line and requires a detour. After that, it needs to pass through more than 200 kilometers of the California Valley and finally reach Sacramento.

The total length is 700 kilometers, and according to the plan, it will take about 23 days.

But in fact, if you encounter rain, snow, accidents, and repairs every few days to recover your strength, the whole process will definitely take more than 45 days.

This travel speed is acceptable.

There is no need to hurry and cause unnecessary casualties. Otherwise, let alone young and old women, even adults will not be able to bear this long-term migration process.

As soon as the order was given, arrangements were made to climb the mountain immediately.

The tribesmen rested after hearing this, and they all worshiped with gratitude.

Half an hour later, the team set off again, but Zhou Li'an was still not at the forefront because he had not yet left the territory of the Tushi Department and did not need his leadership.

Taking advantage of this time, he continued to discover problems and find ways to solve them.

Two hours later.

The second repair was a little messy. The knights failed to set out in advance to notify the various departments. A carriage lost control and almost ran into the crowd.

Zhou Li'an called Niu Shi again and told him to inform him of the climbing stop time ten minutes in advance to arrange manpower in advance.

Although they were repaired every two hours, the older and frailer people in the team still showed signs of fatigue.

Zhou Li'an made another time adjustment.

Take a two-hour break at noon and shorten the number of pushes per day to four. After all, horses also need to eat and drink.

These horses are more valuable than people.

At dusk, the team set up camp early to rest; with 100 carriages as a unit, rest points were set up and bonfires were lit for cooking.

The knights went to find water sources to fill up the water for tomorrow.

Zhou Li'an did not reward food. The tribe stored and carried plenty of dried meat, which was very satisfying to cook with water. They also brought many pine nuts and berries picked in advance, which can be regarded as meat and vegetables.

Everyone was very tired on this day, and the young man had good physical strength, but because everyone knew that this migration was a test sent by our Lord.

Therefore, they all have a tight string in their hearts and dare not relax. The mental exertion is more torturous than the physical exertion.

Zhou Li'an followed the methods of the modern military and arranged various rest stations to gather around bonfires and sing the songs of each tribe to soothe their bodies and minds.

It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that everyone after a tiring day went to sleep, leaving the guards behind to take turns.

Everything is difficult at the beginning.

But no one has the intention to give up, but is looking forward to the way forward and the future.

Five days passed like this.

The migration team covered a distance of 125 kilometers.

Someone died during this period.

There are some elderly people and sick people in each department. It is impossible for Zhou Li'an to provide treatment to them one by one, and some diseases cannot be cured in a short time.

If they were left behind, they would only face death. It was better to take a gamble and reach the warm south to bring life.

At least our Lord, Kinkou, has never given up on them.

Therefore, I had a few whip marks on my body when I climbed the mountain.

And before Zhou Li'an left every night, he would give cow dung the wound medicine and ask him to apply it on the mountain climber, and he would also take anti-inflammatory medicine in advance to prevent infection.

At the end of the sixth day of march, Zhou Li'an announced that they would rest for a day tomorrow to give them time to cultivate. He also gave them vegetables and fruits and ordered them to be distributed.
