There were many pieces of broken silver and gold, but the most significant were the silver banknotes, totaling a value of 3 million taels of silver.
This was what he had fished out from those noble family members who had come to hunt for treasure.
They had come for money, but in the end, they not only left their own money behind but also lost their lives.
Lin Beifan chuckled to himself: “This can be considered a windfall!
”Meanwhile, the six great noble families had no idea that they had been duped by Lin Beifan.
As they watched the people they had sent out to search for treasure fail to return, their hearts bled with pain.
They only felt that Great Xia was their bane, specifically suppressing them; encountering it meant nothing good would happen.
At this time, Great Xia was thriving with national production, and the world was at peace, with no significant events.
However, in the small kingdom region to the northeast, a massive upheaval had occurred.
Three powerful individuals proclaimed themselves as General Tiangong (Heaven Official General), General Digong (Earth Official General), and General Rengong (Human Official General), and established a sect called the Yellow Sky Sect, sparking a huge disturbance that affected many countries.
They worshipped the Yellow Sky deity, with the slogan “The Azure Sky is already dead, the Yellow Sky will soon rise”, aiming to create a peaceful world dominated by Yellow Sky.
In this world, everyone would have food to eat, clothes to wear, and a house to live in; the people would live and work in peace and contentment.
At this time, those small kingdoms were plagued with frequent wars, and the people were living in hardship, already dissatisfied.
So, there were numerous responders, swiftly creating momentum that spread like wildfire.
“The Azure Sky is already dead, the Yellow Sky will soon rise!
”“May the Yellow Sky deity rise above and bring peace to the world!
”“Believe in Yellow Sky, achieve eternal life!
”The local court was too weak to organize any effective resistance.
Thus, the Yellow Sky Sect grew faster and faster.
In the imperial court, a report was presented.
“Your Majesty, the Yellow Sky Sect is currently expanding rapidly, with a following that has reached 3 million, spreading across the five small kingdoms in the northeast, presenting a situation where a single spark can start a prairie fire!
Your humble servant is concerned that they may disrupt our nation.
We should prepare early to prevent any unforeseen events!
”Lin Beifan nodded: “I am already aware of this matter!
However, this sect is stirring up trouble in other nations and is unrelated to our country for the time being.
We will not intervene!
But, should we discover that they are bewitching the hearts of our people and developing followers within our borders, seize them immediately!
”“Yes, Your Majesty!
” the crowd responded in unison.
……At this time, with the rapid development of the Yellow Sky Sect, the three generals of the sect were full of high spirits.
“Elder brother, who would have thought that the Yellow Sky Sect would grow so easily!
With just a call to arms, we immediately have a cloud of responders!
Now we have more than 3 million followers, with believers spread across various nations.
The day when we can change dynasties and don the yellow robes is within reach!
” General Digong said contentedly after taking a sip of fine wine.
General Tiangong, with his eyebrows dancing and face full of excitement, said: “Second brother, you are absolutely right!
Our followers have already reached 3 million.
If we put in a little more effort, we can completely establish a nation of our own!
Our era is coming!
Haha… Brothers, please!
”“Elder brother, please!
” The other two raised their glasses.
The three of them drank up and burst into hearty laughter.
After finishing their drinks, General Rengong said, “Elder brother, now that our followers are saturated, should we expand outward?
”General Tiangong was somewhat tempted: “This old man has been considering this!
However, we are surrounded by great kingdoms.
Whether it’s Great Xia, Great Zhu, or Great Shi, none are entities we can afford to provoke!
There’s also the Great Xue Kingdom, which already possesses the strength of a dynasty, with strong troops and solid power!
Therefore, it won’t be easy to develop further!
”“Elder brother, what’s there to fear?
With 3 million followers, why worry about accomplishing great things?
” General Digong said loudly.
General Rengong also exclaimed, “Elder brother, let’s do it, the glory of a thousand autumns waits for no one!
”Persuaded by his two brothers, General Tiangong finally made up his mind: “Alright, since both my younger brothers support this, let’s go all the way!
However, caution is paramount.
We’ll first send people over to quietly grow our influence, secretly cultivating followers.
When the time is right, we’ll call to arms, and the spark will ignite a prairie fire!
”“Elder brother, we understand!
” the other two generals said in unison.
Thus, they dispatched their followers to infiltrate various nations and covertly expand their congregation.
In the Great Xia Kingdom, atop a secluded mountain.
A disciple of the Yellow Sky Sect named Liu Chen arrived here.
He was just a minor leader within the Yellow Sky Sect, having been recently recruited, and he held the teachings of the Yellow Sky Sect in high regard, admiring the three generals of the sect immensely.
Therefore, he was extremely excited when he was assigned to come here.
He silently vowed to himself that he must achieve something significant in life.
At that moment, as he watched a group of farmers carrying hoes walking towards him, his heart was filled with sympathy.
It seemed that these people had no homes to live in, having slept in a makeshift straw shelter the night before.
Their clothes were tattered and dirty, and yet they had to go to work.
It was truly pitiable!
As the most devoted follower of the Yellow Sky Sect, he decided to save them!
So he stepped forward and proclaimed loudly, “Now the imperial court is corrupt and incompetent, exploiting the people’s fat and marrow, leaving the common folk unable to sustain their lives!
The Azure Sky is already dead, the Yellow Sky will soon rise!
The merciful Yellow Sky cannot bear to see everyone suffer; thus, it has sent us to save the masses and restore peace to the world!
The time has come, so why not join me in worshipping Yellow Sky and welcome a new life?
”Everyone was stunned, looking at him as if he were a fool.
Liu Chen was puzzled, “What do you mean by looking at me like that?
I truly am sent by the Yellow Sky God to save you all.
Only by believing in the Yellow Sky God can you have a peaceful and satisfying life!
”“Don’t you want to eat your fill?
Don’t you want to wear warm clothes?
Don’t you want to live in big, sturdy houses?
As long as you believe in the Yellow Sky God and work with us, all of this can be achieved!
”The way everyone looked at Liu Chen made him seem even more like a fool.
An old man couldn’t help but say, “…Are you out of your mind?
”Liu Chen: “Huh?
”The old man said loudly, “Who among us doesn’t have food to eat?
Who doesn’t have clothes to wear?
Who doesn’t have a house to live in?
Why should we believe in this Yellow Sky God?
It’s a waste of emotions!
”Liu Chen was stunned, “…you already have food to eat?
”The old man nodded, “Of course, do we look like we’re starving?
”Liu Chen looked carefully and noticed that although they were dirty, they had ruddy complexions and flesh on their faces, not looking like they were starving at all.
Liu Chen pointed at their clothes, “Then why are your clothes so dirty, so tattered…”The old man laughed heartily, “That’s on purpose.
Who wears good clothes to work?
Especially for us road workers, after a day’s work, we’re covered in cement and have no way to change and wash, so we just make do with what we wear!
”“Exactly!
Wearing new clothes to work, isn’t that crazy?
”“We have plenty of new clothes, but they’re all at our homes in the capital city!
”“We really don’t lack clothes at all right now!
”Liu Chen continued to be dumbfounded: “What about houses?
Don’t tell me you have houses when I see you sleeping in thatched huts!
”“We do indeed sleep in thatched huts, but that’s just a temporary residence!
We’re not so particular when we’re out working; having a place to sleep is already good enough!
And speaking of houses, I have one too!
”The old man laughed proudly: “It’s right there in the capital city, a concrete house, big and sturdy!
My spouse and children all live there, warm in winter and cool in summer, impervious to wind and rain, it’s incredibly comfortable!
”“As for houses, I have one in the capital city too, but it’s currently under construction, haha!
”“I have one as well, and my wife and children have already moved in!
”“Boy, look at us, we’ve got everything we need now, why bother worshipping the Yellow God?
Instead of wasting time on that, we might as well work more and earn some extra money!
”“I don’t have time for your nonsense; we’re off to work on the road!
”“Right, right… let’s hurry!
If we’re late, they’ll dock our pay!
”Watching the departing workers, Liu Chen became disheveled in the wind.
These people, who looked so shabby, were actually well-fed, clothed, and housed, living better than he did!
He fell into deep thought, wondering if he was approaching life all wrong.
After a while, several officers arrived.
One of the older officers asked, “Did you just promote the Yellow Sky deity, claiming that the Azure Sky is already dead, the Yellow Sky will soon rise?
”Liu Chen was somewhat afraid but defiantly said, “So what if I did?
Is that a crime?
”“It is indeed a crime!
You’ve been spreading heretical ideas and causing public disorder.
Arrest him immediately!
”Meanwhile, many followers of the Yellow Sky Sect were developing believers throughout the Great Xia region and were soon discovered and apprehended.
Some of the high-ranking leaders who were operating in secret were directly eliminated by Lin Beifan.
Thus, this heretical movement was snuffed out before it could gain any momentum.
Yellow Sky Sect Headquarters.
General Digong hurried in, “Elder brother, the situation seems rather grim!
”General Tiangong, who was dealing with official duties, looked up, “Second brother, what has happened to make you so flustered?
”“Elder brother, you had me send people to various countries to expand our followers!
So far, things have been going quite smoothly in Great Xue, Great Zhu, and Great Shi, but not in Great Xia.
All the people we sent there have lost contact!
”“Is that so?
”General Tiangong stood up, his brow furrowed with concern, “It seems that Great Xia has been prepared for us!
”“Elder brother, what should we do now?
” General Digong asked urgently.
“Although our initial efforts were not successful, we can send more people.
I refuse to believe that we cannot conquer Great Xia!
” General Tiangong declared loudly.
“Alright, elder brother, I know what to do now!
