Chapter 1807 The Spiritual Network Is Here
Aquamarine, the land of cherry blossoms.
Sakura City!
In a cheap single-room apartment.
Taro Shinomiya, a college student who just turned 20, was holding a piece of bread in his mouth and arguing with a group of scholars in the largest community forum in Sakura City with his hands.
The topic of the post was about the most popular spiritual network.
Netizens were looking forward to the spiritual network coming to their own city and that the test quota would not be so difficult to obtain.
Then where there are people, there will naturally be conflicts, which gave both sides a reason to argue with each other.
"To be honest, I just got off the moon today, so I just happened to have time to answer the original poster's question."
"However, considering the conflict of interest, I'm anonymous and can't say much. I'll just remind you: the promotion of the spiritual network this time is very strong, and Yingdu will definitely be selected."
"Besides, I've already reserved a test spot."
After typing these words, Shimiya Taro quickly changed his account and continued to post:
"I didn't want to post at first, after all, I just graduated from Yingda University and it's a busy time, but seeing that someone actually questioned that Ying would not be selected, I couldn't stand it."
"I just received a call from my father last night, and he has helped me get a test spot..."
"It's impossible to post the picture. I'm just stating the facts. What does it have to do with me whether you believe it or not?"
After skillfully changing several small accounts to enhance his persuasiveness and despise his opponent.
Shimiya Taro was also a little tired, and couldn't help stretching.
Then he opened the official news website homepage and stared at the closed wooden door of the official residence in the live broadcast screen.
According to the news, the officials of the Land of Sakura are conducting remote consultations with representatives of the Dark Council to decide where the spiritual network test city will be and how many places there will be in the first batch.
It can be said that the entire Land of Sakura, even the chief minister of the cabinet who is busy with all kinds of affairs, dare not be sure of the final result.
As for why Taro Shimiya vowed to be in Sakura City... It is naturally because his opponents, those mainstream netizens prefer several large cities outside Sakura City.
Referring to the United States' choice of Luoshanji, it is actually very logical that this idea will be mainstream.
But who is Taro Shimiya? He is the master of mouth cannons in the Sakura City network and a senior victim of the conspiracy theory that everything can happen. How can he be so tasteless and merge with the mainstream?
Moreover, if not, how can we hurt each other in the online world?
As for being slapped in the face in the end o( ̄ヘ ̄o#)
Hehehe, Taro Shimiya is so thick-skinned!
And not to mention that his small accounts are all anonymous, even if they are found out, it is not difficult for him to create a few new vests.
If he wins... he will naturally feel extremely happy, and then he can have a good sleep.
"Sakura City, it must be Sakura City!"
Taro Shimiya stared at the live screen, and couldn't help muttering.
Deep down, he still hoped to win.
A few minutes later.
Just when Taro Shimiya was about to stand up and stretch his numb muscles.
Suddenly.
The live screen shook, and the beautiful female host appeared in the screen, announcing loudly with excitement:
"Audience, look, the door of the official residence is open!"
"It's the Chief Cabinet Officer, Mr. Mata Mikami, who came out!"
"It seems that this time it is Mr. Mata Mikami who announced the results to us."
As he said, the screen moved, enlarged, and then fixed on an old man with white hair who looked very energetic.
The old man pushed his black-framed glasses on his nose, looked at the cameras and microphones of the reporters in front of him, and said with a smile without any fear:
"We, on behalf of the Sakura Country, held three hours of consultations with representatives of the Dark Council and the Miki Company, which was selected to assist in the development and operation of the spiritual network."
"Our Sakura Country is a civilized force that keeps pace with the times and welcomes the entry of the spiritual network."
"Just at the meeting, we have passed a motion to agree to allocate 1 trillion Sakura coins to support the operation of the spiritual network."
"In addition, Miki Company also stated that it has received a low-interest loan of more than 500 billion Sakura coins."
Although the value of Sakura coins is not high, it is stable. One trillion Sakura coins is not a small amount, which shows that the official sincerity of the Sakura Country is full.
And everyone knows that this is only an initial investment, and the subsequent additional and private investment are not included.
After a burst of exclamations at the right time, the scene became quiet again.
Everyone present, the tens of millions of people watching the live broadcast, are waiting for the topic they care about most.
Taro Shinomiya gulped down a big mouthful of fat house happy water, staring at the chief and muttering:
"He said a lot of nonsense and deliberately left a tail to make us anxious. This chief must have been a third-rate novelist before, right?"
The chief Mikami brewed his emotions and suddenly said with a hint of Osaka City accent:
"Our Sakura Country is fortunate to get two city quotas this time!"
"Two!"
Hearing this, the netizens watching the live broadcast were all excited.
"Yes, two quotas... One of them is Nagasaki!"
"The other one is... Osaka City!"
This time, the spokesperson spoke directly, and it was obvious that he was also very happy and excited about the result.
Those who care about it can understand it.
The Sakura Country has never been truly united.
The dispute between the East and the West, even in special times, is undercurrent.
And this spokesperson is an official pushed by the Western Cherry Blossom Country, and most of his interests are in the Western Cherry Blossom Country.
Daban City is the most important core area in the Western Cherry Blossom Country's sphere of influence.
This time, getting this test quota will undoubtedly attract manpower and material resources from all over the Blue Water Star, and even have the possibility of challenging Yingdu, the base camp of the Eastern Cherry Blossom Country in a special status.
Netizens living in the Western Cherry Blossom Country area cheered.
Netizens in Yingdu were sour.
Shimiya Taro's eyelids twitched. Although he had expected it, he really heard that Yingdu was not in the spiritual network test quota.
He was still a little unhappy and even angry.
He began to operate the computer and skillfully destroyed his own big and small remarks.
At the same time, Taro Shimiya pricked up his ears and listened to the words of the superior:
"In the first list of the Land of Sakura, Nagasaki was allocated 100,000, and Oita City was allocated 500,000."
"By the way, I don't know how Nagasaki will be arranged, but I can reveal it in advance."
"The quota of Oita City is determined by random drawing through most online registrations for conferences."
"Registration qualifications... In addition to the need for a health certificate issued by a regular hospital, as long as you are within the administrative area of Oita City."
"Fuck!"
Hearing this, Taro Shimiya immediately started to operate in a hurry.
Sure enough, just after Taro Shimiya successfully booked a one-year lease for an apartment in the city of Oita online.
Most of the apartments and even hotel rooms were swept away.
Then, in the second-hand market, the price of some rooms was doubled and doubled again and then listed.
Taro Shimiya scanned the total number of these rooms and found that the total number of these rooms was not large. Obviously, most of the rooms booked were more inclined to live in.
At the same time, the second-hand housing market was swept away in a short period of time, leaving those intermediaries stunned and regretful: they still underestimated the influence of the spiritual network and sold it too cheaply!
The majority of netizens who were a beat slower, after coming to their senses, started all kinds of performances of life.
The spectators on the periphery couldn't help but shout out: The power of the spiritual network is so terrifying!
When the spiritual network storm was launched in the country of cherry blossoms.
The other major forces also announced the spiritual network test cities and corresponding selection rules in their respective regions.
The idle people calculated curiously and found that there were a total of fifty new cities this time.
The total number of test quotas exceeded 10 million!
Compared with the quota of Luoshanji, which barely broke 1 million at present, it expanded tenfold at once!
This made many netizens see the hope of playing the spiritual network in their lifetime.
After all, if this growth rate is maintained... there will be 100 million next year, and 1 billion the year after.
So even if the luck is bad, you can always play the spiritual network the year after next, right?
Thinking of this, many people felt much better.
And they comforted themselves that being a wait-and-see party would allow those pioneers to encounter thunder and solve bugs, and they could play with a more mature and safe spiritual network at once, which was not good, right?
Before boarding the train to Daban City, Shigong Taro also said so on the forum on his mobile phone.
Then he boarded the train and went straight to Daban, not missing his nest where he had lived for several years at all...
…………
A week later, Daban City welcomed the skeleton wizard of the Dark Council.
Accompanied by the officials, the skeleton wizard remained silent all the way until he reached the center of the largest square, and then he stopped.
Then, the skeleton wizard suddenly turned his head slowly to the left, and lifted his cloak to reveal his skull, which made the hearts of the live media reporters beat violently.
Then these people came back to their senses and looked in the direction where the skeleton wizard was looking.
Suddenly, someone put his hands together and became excited:
"They are the extraordinary people of our country of cherry blossoms!"
"Amaterasu is above!"
"They should be attracted by the extraordinary people of the Dark Council?"
Whispering, above the high-rise buildings on the west side of the square in Daban City.
Two Yin-Yang masters wearing cloth hats stepped on the backs of two translucent black birds.
Beside the two Yin-Yang masters, there appeared an old monk wearing a hood and white plain clothes.
The monk bowed slightly, and a sound of Amitabha resounded over the city as if it was equipped with a loudspeaker.
The voice was full of energy and cast a sacred and solemn taste.
It made many people at the scene shocked, and they bowed and recited the Heart Sutra in silence.
The Buddhist culture of the country of cherry blossoms is quite strong, and the influence of Buddhism among the people is greater than that of Yin-Yang masters and Shinto.
This can be seen from the fact that the most profitable funeral industry is almost monopolized by it.
It's just that in this period of time, Yin-Yang masters have emerged in endlessly, and the power of Shikigami has resounded throughout the entire Blue Water Star.
However, the Buddhist sect has not shown any extraordinary saints for a long time, which makes the local Buddhist sects much more low-key.
It also makes many local wealthy families puzzled, wondering whether the Buddhist sect has really cut off the extraordinary inheritance.
Now this doubt has been solved.
"I said, how could there be no extraordinary in Buddhism?"
"Hahaha, that's right!"
In the Land of Sakura, the noble families who have been paying attention to the live broadcast smiled.
Compared with the unpredictable Onmyoji, the relationship between Buddhism and these people is closer.
Some people have been thinking about whether they can use their connections to let outstanding tribesmen become secular disciples in the extraordinary Buddhist sect.
Zigong Taro was at the periphery of the square at this time, holding a telescope and looking at a sea of heads.
Hearing the exclamation, he shifted the direction of the camera and immediately saw the three extraordinary people.
The appearance of the Buddhist extraordinary people is undoubtedly the most special and the most eye-catching.
Zigong Taro saw that the three extraordinary people were staring down, probably looking at the skeleton wizard of the Dark Council.
Then, I don’t know what they exchanged with their eyes.
The three extraordinary people nodded at the same time.
Immediately, the two Yin-Yang masters flew into the sky first, and when they waved their hands, it seemed that the sky was dripping with cool rain.
"This must be the blessing of the Yin-Yang masters!"
"Just like the blessing of the Holy Lord City!"
"We are all blessed!"
Some people cheered, some knelt on the ground, and some picked up containers to catch the rain.
Shigong Taro saw that the Buddhist Supernatural also took action. He floated in the air and crossed his legs to meditate.
Then he put his hands together in front of his chest and actually recited a popular Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra.
Most people in the Sakura Country are very familiar with this scripture. They have not learned it, but they have heard it many times.
In addition, the ghost dragons behind the Buddhist Supernatural rubbed their hands and added confusing spells to the sound.
Many believers who already believed in Buddhism were the first to be tricked. In the Buddhist sound, they seemed to see rainbows appearing in the sky. Then, in the reflection of the colorful light, a group of extremely noble golden Buddha statues stood between heaven and earth, looking at the square together.
It seemed that they were praying for the countless sentient beings in the square with their actions.
Involuntarily, many Buddhists began to follow and put their hands together to recite.
For a time, the atmosphere in the square became extremely Buddhist and solemn.
The skeleton wizard was slightly startled. It did not expect the effect to be so good.
It seems that the influence of Buddhist culture is indeed profound among the people of the Land of Sakura!
The skeleton wizard who had not forgotten his business came back to his senses, raised his staff in the sound of Buddhist music, and then knocked heavily on the floor.
Suddenly!
The giant stone tablet broke out of the ground and stood in the center of the square.
Buzz!
A sound that made the sky tremble and the earth shake gently came from the giant stone tablet.
Immediately, those with higher spiritual power, such as Zigong Taro, vaguely felt that the Big Board City had become a little different.
There seemed to be an inexplicable connection in the air.
The elites of the Miki Company who came with the Dark Council were moved in their hearts. They had obtained the spiritual network qualifications just after the mountain fell, and they all felt that they could connect to the spiritual network again.
The Skeleton Wizard nodded slightly and sent a message to the official next to him:
"The spiritual network nodes have been set up."
"After the internal testers have completed the 24-hour test, we can accept new spiritual network members."
The officials in Daban District thanked him and notified the higher-ups.
Then, the selection process was officially launched.
The Skeleton Wizard ignored the crowd and turned away.
There is another city in the Land of Cherry Blossoms that needs it to set up nodes.
