Han Khan

Chapter 95, Chapter , The Temple

In the golden month of September, when the dawn breaks, the grassland wakes up under the first rays of sunlight. The breeze blows across the vast land, bringing a cool breeze from the north.

The snow-capped top of Jinshan Mountain in the distance sparkled golden in the morning light. The grass on the mountain had begun to turn yellow on a large scale. On the banks of the Kobdo River and Uvs Lake at the foot of the mountain, the lush green grass with a little yellowing swayed gently in the morning breeze, like a green ocean.

At the foot of the mountain, Jinhan's herdsmen began their busy day. They rode on horses, holding whips, and shouted at the cattle, sheep, horses, and camels to head towards the mountain meadows of Jinshan.

In the Jinhan camp at the foot of the mountain, felt tents were densely packed everywhere, and everyone in the camp was busy at this time.

At this time, a Naiman female slave came in from outside the yurt carrying a milk bucket and poured the fresh milk into the pot.

Zhang Sheng's three women, Gunes, Özlem and Usungul, were cutting meat, kneading dough, and making soup, rice and meat in the tent.

The flames under the iron pot danced lightly, and the willow branches that had just been filled in the stove made crackling sounds from time to time.

The fresh milk gradually warmed up, and slowly, a thin layer of fat formed on the surface of the milk.

Outside the camp, because the Jinhan tribe was going to build a temple here, the Jinhan warriors showed their piety to the Holy Religion and the God of Heaven in order to contribute their merits.

They personally brought their slaves to the golden mountain and the big lake to mine the stones and wood needed to build the temple.

Six chief priests, along with nearly a hundred priests, were holding a cremation and salvation ceremony for the warriors and tribesmen who had died in battle in front of numerous wood piles.

The names of the warriors who died in the battle have been registered, and their ashes have been spread out in the center of the camp, where the temple will be built.

The construction of the temple was not only to commemorate the fallen warriors, but also to give the Jinhan tribe a place of faith.

Not far away, the Jinhan warriors were still working hard to mine stones and wood. Their sweat dripped onto the ground, as if they were telling the heaven and earth about their piety.

When Zhang Sheng first traveled to this era, that is, when he was resurrected, he was filled with despair.

Originally living in a modern civilized society, but suddenly came to this strange and difficult world.

There are no tall buildings, no cars or electrical appliances here, only deserts and Gobi. When he first arrived, he felt like a lamb lost in the wilderness, with nowhere to go.

However, at the time of his "resurrection", when he was most helpless, God did not seem to have completely abandoned him.

He was pleasantly surprised to find that he had obtained an interesting cheat code, a system called "Age of Empires".

This system seemed like a ray of hope. It at least gave him the confidence to survive in this era. While he could settle down and make a living, he also had the foundation to fight for survival in this era.

The one thousand households and four to five thousand Han people in the Jinhan tribe were found by Zhang Sheng under the guidance of this system after he defeated the Kucha Uighurs.

Of course, the four or five thousand people did not appear out of thin air; they were already there. It was only because Jin Han defeated the Kucha Uighurs that it gained some Han people.

After occupying Yizhou, Zhang Sheng upgraded the system from the "Dark Age" to the "Castle Age", but Zhang Sheng did not linger in the well-equipped small fortress in Yizhou, but moved directly north to today's Jinshan.

Since the establishment of Jinhan, Jinhan has not had a piece of land of its own on which its people can live and work in peace and contentment.

Therefore, although the system has been upgraded to the "Castle Age", Zhang Sheng has not yet enjoyed the benefits of this golden finger.

Now, the Jinhan tribe not only conquered the Jiluo tribe, but also defeated the strongest Guchuwuti tribe in the Great Lake Basin. In addition, the Hela tribe and the Yudujin Tatar tribe also voluntarily surrendered.

At this time, the surrounding tribes had already been frightened out of their wits and were unable to compete with Jin Han.

If Zhang Sheng had not chosen not to attack his people because he wanted them to recuperate, these tribes would have probably been wiped out long ago.

The Jinhan tribe, which had originally separated from Dunhuang, was like a snowball that was growing bigger and bigger, and its scale far exceeded that of its inception. Now, it had firmly taken root in the Jinshan Mountains in Mobei. At this moment, this golden finger that had never been fully utilized finally had the opportunity to play a role.

Zhang Sheng walked out of the tent and looked at the many priests, warriors and tribesmen who were busy.

At this time, he decided to use the golden finger and show the "miracle" brought to him by the golden finger from his own hand in front of everyone in the Jinhan tribe.

Let all the Jinhan people believe that they are protected by the God Haotian, and let everyone believe that he, Zhang Sheng, is the messenger and shadow of the God Haotian on earth.

After the priests completed the funeral and salvation of the warriors who died in the war.

"Woooooooooooooooooooo!" The sound of horns made many Jinhan people look towards the center of the camp where many woods, stones and snow-white ashes were piled.

He opened the system interface and chose the Golden Horde Oirat, the center of the town where he usually lived and which also served as the tribal meeting center of the Jinhan tribe. He looked at the system interface and selected the production system laborers.

As he operated, after flashes of golden light, one after another strong men in blue shorts appeared out of thin air in the center of the quiet camp.

The Jinhan people who were watching were all staring in amazement at the twenty strong men who suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the camp, but they looked a little confused and dazed.

After watching the system produce 20 laborers, Zhang Sheng once again looked at the system interface and selected the building he wanted to build first this time - the monastery.

Then a scene that made the Jin Han people even more dumbfounded appeared.

These twenty strong men who appeared out of nowhere looked confused and dazed at first glance.

After receiving the order from Zhang Sheng, they started moving the wood and stones without saying a word. They worked quickly and soon laid out the materials prepared by the Jin Han slaves neatly aside.

The Jin Han people were stunned. At first, they were really confused when looking at these people.

While waiting to see with their own eyes those confused strong men start to build buildings with hard stones and wood as if by magic, all the Jinhan people could say at that moment that they felt they had seen a miracle.

Seeing this, all the Jin Han people knelt down, bowed their heads and shouted:
"Great is Haotian, Great is Haotian, Great is Haotian, Great God, may your glorious name last forever..."

Under the gaze of everyone, these twenty incredible strong men displayed amazing speed and strength. Holding tools in hand, they worked as fast as machines.

In a short period of time, a magnificent building, like a towering mountain, slowly rose from the center of the camp, next to the big tent, and above the ashes of the dead warriors.

Just as people were stunned, a dazzling golden light flashed, and the entire building was completed in an instant. This is the monastery in the "Empire Age" and also the holy temple of the Jinhan tribe!
The kneeling Jinhan people in the camp were all so surprised to see such a miraculous scene. Their eyes were full of awe, and they kept chanting: "Great is Haotian..." as if they were expressing their sincere respect to the gods.

At this time, Zhang Sheng said loudly: "This is a gift from Lord Haotian to our Jinhan tribe!

Because we, the Jinhan people, are the most outstanding and devout believers chosen by the God of Heaven."

Under His blessing, we Jinhan people will continue to grow and prosper! "

This sentence was like lighting a fuse, and all the Jinhan people suddenly burst into warm and enthusiastic cheers.

Under the leadership of Zhang Sheng, everyone knelt down and prayed loudly to the miracle that appeared before their eyes:
"Supreme Haotian, the great God, the only divine spirit, may your glorious name last forever..."

At this moment, all the Jin Han people, whether they were slaves or nobles, priests or warriors, were more certain and convinced of Zhang Sheng's status as the Son of Heaven and the messenger of the God of Heaven on earth.

They firmly believed that under the leadership of this miraculous leader, the Jinhan tribe, blessed by the gods, would surely move towards glory.
