God Simulator

Wake up.

Lu Yao looked at the metal piece in his hand.

It is somewhat like the sword coins from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It is slightly heavy and has a metallic texture. The three characters "Hui Jun Fu" in traditional Chinese are engraved on the surface of the sword.

…

[Huijun Talisman]: Opens a long-distance teleportation gate to complete instant teleportation to and return to the designated world. It will become invalid after use. Gods, Apostles, Heroes, Prophet units and more are available.

…

These are two transmission props that Song Shiyi gave to Isabel before. She said that she would be able to meet them if she finds a time to use them in two days.

Lu Yao took it back into the boundary chain.

He gave one to Isabel, and then operated the yellow armor to enter proxy mode.

After activating the [Huijun Talisman], the scene in front of Lu Yao suddenly changed, with countless lights, shadows and colors twisting and flashing, as if he was trapped in a ball of constantly changing rainbow candy.

…

Opening his eyes again, Lu Yao found himself in a square.

White mist lingered in the square, and the ground beneath the feet was made up of stone slabs. Wisps of white air rose from the cracks in the stones, and then quickly dissipated.

A black circle was drawn on the stone slab area where Lu Yao stepped on, presumably it was the teleportation place marked by the [Huijun Talisman].

Isabel also stood in the circle.

She resumed her appearance in the pixel world, wearing a [Natural Magic Hat], holding a [Natural Wand], and the magic book [Natural Secret Words] suspended beside her.

"Sir, there are special restrictions here, and the perception is severely compressed."

Isabel looked around warily.

Suddenly, a person walked out of the fog ahead.

The man called from afar: "Mr. Huang Jia, Miss Mary, here, here."

After getting closer, Lu Yao confirmed that the other party was Song Shiyi.

She was wearing a blue jacket, gray outdoor trousers, and a pair of hiking boots. The moon god's personal panel is still full of question marks.

"plz follow me."

With Song Shiyi leading the way, Lu Yao and the two walked through the mist. As we continued to move forward, the surrounding white fog became thinner and thinner, and the surrounding scenes became clearer.

This is a piece of land or floating island in the clouds, wrapped in an endless sea of ​​clouds.

Arriving at the center where the clouds and mist cannot approach, there stood a low, dusty palace.

It is said to be a palace because it occupies a large area and has a clear step structure on the edge. There are tall wooden piles similar to a Chinese watch in front of the building, which means that it does have some kind of totem symbol.

Whether on TV or in games, Lu Yao had never seen a palace more shabby than what he saw before him.

The main body of the palace is made of bamboo and thatch, with a wide triangular roof, and the bottom is suspended in the air with wooden frames. It looks like an ancient tribal meeting hall.

The roof is paved with pieces of thatch, and the windows are hung with curtains woven from straw ropes. The only thing that can be considered grand is the totem pole outside, with a large bird with open wings carved on the top.

Lu Yao could see its data panel.

…

[Xiji Palace]: A mythical wonder. Origin unknown.

HP: 142993/3550000

【myth】

【Land of Transformation】

The appearance transformed within it is related to the person who enters it.

【Authenticity Overlapping LV81】

Reality and illusion will be intertwined and difficult to distinguish.

【Kunlun】

Part of Kunlun.

…

Of all the descriptions, Lu Yao cared most about the last one.

Xiji Palace is part of Kunlun.

In other words, this place might have been connected to Kunlun Mountain in the past, but I don’t know if it can still be done now.

As a palace in Kunlun Mountain and a relic of the Kingdom of the West, the simplicity here was somewhat beyond Lu Yao's initial expectations.

But on the other hand, the painting style of this mythical wonder does seem to be very far away from the present. No matter the layout or structure, it emphasizes simplicity and practicality.

Lu Yao was looking at the Xiji Palace, and Song Shiyi introduced to them next to him: "The ruins excavated by the Xiji Kingdom project are here."

"Xiji Palace is considered to be part of the Kingdom of the West. In fact, the Kingdom of the West is a relatively broad concept."

Song Shiyi took two more steps, pointed ahead and said, "We have arrived at the camp."

Lu Yao looked along Song Shiyi's hand.

The direction her finger pointed was a young man in white and a small black wooden building on the ground.

Lu Yao looked at the latter.

This thing is about 30 centimeters high, with two floors, upper and lower floors, complete with cornices, window sills and door rails, and two small doors on the front that open outward.

"This is Teacher Zao's [Kitchen King's Niche]. It will be very convenient to have this when you are out and about. Please come in. Bai Xin is watching from outside, so everything will be fine."

The Bai Xin she was talking about was the boy next to her. He was wearing a white hoodie. He was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with short hair and a modest face.

"Hello you two, Master has been waiting in the shrine for a long time."

Lu Yao also nodded to him: "Thank you."

Song Shiyi first walked to the shrine on the ground. Her body became smaller and smaller, and she walked in through the open door.

So that’s what happened.

Lu Yao found that he could not identify the characteristics of the [Kitchen King's Niche]. He guessed that it had special abilities or restrictions left by the Kitchen King.

He also walked towards the shrine.

By the time Lu Yao arrived at the door, he saw an antique carved mansion in front of him.

There is a plaque hanging on the lintel at the top of the door, which reads "Ming of the East Chef" from right to left.

There is a couplet on the left and right doorposts.

The first couplet on the right is: God says good things.

The lower line on the left is: Returning home brings good luck.

Lu Yao touched the door when he crossed the threshold. The texture and texture of the wood were very clear.

Beyond the gate is a pool with several red and white carps swimming in it.

Behind the pool is a stone wall screen.

Around here is a hall with a pillar and beam structure, which is completely modernly decorated: a large modular sofa, a thick carpet, a glass coffee table, a spherical lamp hanging on the ceiling, a square and simple wall-mounted storage cabinet, and hanging hangings on the wall. There is a large 100-inch TV.

"XX Sister Breaking the Waves" is playing on the TV.

Wei Yingxue was chewing an apple at this time and lying on a lazy sofa. Although she is blind, it does not affect her ability to listen to variety shows.

Lu Yao was slightly shocked.

Is this the modern shrine of the Kitchen God?

"Eh? This faint retro fragrance...Miss Mary."

Wei Yingxue turned her head and looked at the door through her sunglasses.

"And this one that smells like agarwood and rust... Mr. Huang Jia. Are you here?"

She got up from the sofa and raised her hand to say hello.

Lu Yao also responded.

He was a little curious: "There is also a TV signal here? Can I still watch programs?"

"of course not."

Wei Yingxue explained: "It is a recorded program. I have recorded a lot of music variety shows and cross talk. It may not be suitable to listen to cross talk here, so it is better to show variety shows. However, there is a household generator here, which can also be charged."

Lu Yao was inexplicably relieved.

Fortunately, Kitchen King's Shrine does not have its own TV signal.

Lu Yao discovered that there were several game consoles on the cabinet under the TV, including mainstream PS5, XBOX, Nintendo WiiU, and Switch.

Ah this...

Could it be that the Kitchen God is a grandfather’s game house?

Lu Yao asked Song Shiyi next to him in a low voice.

"That one? Teacher Zao also plays it occasionally. When they have nothing to do, Bai Xin and Hongzhen will play the game console. They like to play that very much, especially fighting and football. Do you like it too, Mr. Huang Jia?"

"good……"

Lu Yao was sincerely envious.

After all, he is a veteran starter. Look at his life and quality.

At this time, an old man's voice came from inside.

"Are all the guests here?"

An old man walked out of the back room.

Ding Hanzhen looks about seventy years old. He is thin but stands upright. He wears an old-fashioned blue shirt with a black vest.

He has gray hair, but he is very energetic. He is the kind of old man who still retains enthusiasm and interest in life.

"Xiao Huang."

The old man smiled and shook hands with him: "Hello, welcome to our group."

Lu Yao couldn't help but have a sense of déjà vu as he entered a university research group.

"Hello, Teacher Zao." He also said.

"Hello, Miss Mary. Xiao Song keeps praising you. You are indeed very lovable."

The old man's focus was all on Isabel, which made Lu Yao a little speechless. Even the Kitchen God paid attention to Isabel. Isabel didn't have any charm?

Lu Yao took the opportunity to observe Ding Hanzhen.

As a result, I only got a display of [Kitchen God], and the others were all question marks, which was even more thorough than Song Shiyi's.

A very penetrating girl's voice came from the kitchen: "Teacher, the food is ready."

"Then let's eat first and chat while eating."

Ding Hanzhen rubbed his hands and walked to the kitchen. Song Shiyi and Wei Yingxue also went to help.

Lu Yao and Isabel joined the ranks.

Everyone took a pile of vegetables and rice and sat down at the long dining table.

Dinner includes fish-flavored shredded pork and tomato scrambled eggs, braised pork ribs with hard vegetables and beef stir-fried with green onions, three delicacies soup, boiled cabbage hearts and crispy pickled radish, and finally rice with cherry tomatoes and cantaloupe. After fruit.

This meal was extremely rich, and every taste was just right. Lu Yaodi felt for the first time that Xiaohuo still had a lot of room for improvement.

Song Shiyi looked at the girl next to her: "Shall I bring Bai Xin's rice to him?"

"When he takes over his shift with me, he can eat when he comes back. I left a portion for him."

The girl named Hongzhen said this.

She looked to be no more than fifteen years old, the same age as Bai Xin outside. Hongzhen was wearing a red sweatshirt. She tied up her hair with a red rope, and there was a sense of coldness and distance in her eyes.

Lu Yao asked Song Shiyi next to him in a low voice: "Who are Bai Xin and Hongzhen?"

"He is an apostle and a disciple of Teacher Zao."

Song Shiyi also responded in a low voice: "Bai Xin is good at detecting and tracing tracks, and Hong Zhen is specialized in combat. But in fact, they heard everything we said very clearly."

Lu Yao was a little embarrassed and could only cough.

Ding Hanzhen seemed not to have heard it. He said softly: "Since everyone is here, let me first talk about this West Pole Country project."

"This is the sixth time our group has come here. We have drawn several basic conclusions from the previous stations and surveys."

"First, the Xiji Palace itself cannot be stored and transformed. Second, its construction method and style are confirmed to have been completed during the Western Zhou Dynasty or even earlier, which is consistent with the emergence period and the basic external characteristics of the Xiji Kingdom."

"Let's talk about the progress of the Arch Guard Department."

"This is the third time they have entered the West Pole Palace. The first two times they stayed there were very short, and the information they fed back was that the first and second times were different."

"The first time I entered, the Xiji Palace was a closed mausoleum, and nothing was found. The second time I entered, it turned into a chaotic battlefield. Every situation is true, and the mausoleum is empty. The battlefield is where many soldiers are fighting to the death...and these are constantly changing."

"The third time, this time I finally encountered a relatively stable scene environment. It was a village. The relevant information was not given to me yet."

"What our team has to do is to use existing clues to deduce the specific age, cause, related personnel and influence of Xiji Palace from the outside. This is a job that requires patience."

Ding Hanzhen briefly told the story, his eyes lingering on Lu Yao and Isabel for a moment.

The old man smiled: "This is a regular group meeting. Everyone can speak freely. Tell us your opinions and views."

"..."

Everyone was silent.

"No objection? Let's adjourn the meeting." Ding Hanzhen clapped his hands.

Everyone immediately chatted animatedly.

…

After meal.

Lu Yao was sitting on the soft beanbag. He was watching variety shows on the big-screen TV. He glanced at other people out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but feel a strong sense of unreality.

Song Shiyi and Isabel were talking about something.

Ding Hanzhen took a cup of tea and was reading a book while wearing reading glasses.

Wei Yingxue lay on the sofa with Ge You listening to the variety show.

The girl Hongzhen delivers snacks and drinks to everyone and serves as the maid service of the Stove King's niche.

Is this how the committee works?

Didn’t we really come here for a vacation as a group?

Lu Yao ate the sago and baked cookies made by Hongzhen and fell into deep thought.
