Chapter 53 mentions the coming of a "god" from the West.
This was a year after the Trisolaran civilization arrived in the Qin Shi world, and the Qin Shi world had undergone considerable changes compared to a year ago.
In Xinzheng City, a young girl dressed outside the Seven Kingdoms was leisurely strolling through the city, sometimes looking around here and sometimes looking around there.
The streets were wide and clean, and there wasn't a single homeless person or beggar in the city. It wasn't that the city's administrators had driven away the homeless people and beggars; there simply weren't any, just like in the other towns she had passed through.
There were many pedestrians on the street, men, women, young and old, and most of them had smiles on their faces.
There were no soldiers patrolling the streets, but people consciously followed the rules.
The street was lined with shops, and the sounds of vendors hawking their wares rose and fell. The girl ran to these shops and looked around. They were selling all sorts of items that were hard to find in the Western Regions.
The shopkeeper didn't pay attention to her exotic attire and greeted her warmly, but unfortunately, she was short of money and couldn't afford to buy anything.
Seeing that the girl had no money, a kind shopkeeper gave her some small gifts for free, for which the girl thanked him profusely.
Holding the small gift from the kind shopkeeper, the girl continued browsing and arrived at the former Korean royal palace.
The once mysterious royal palace has now been transformed into Xinzheng Park, which is open to the public free of charge.
There are many statues in front of the palace. After their executions, King Han An, Ji Wuye, Lady Mingzhu, Bai Yifei, and others were made into statues and knelt here.
The girl glanced at the statues, shook her head, and did not enter the palace, continuing to wander outside.
Suddenly, her ears twitched slightly; the sound of reading aloud drifted on the wind.
She had heard the same things being read aloud in other towns.
"Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium."
"One times seven equals seven, two times seven equals fourteen, three times seven equals twenty-one, four times seven equals twenty-eight, five times seven equals thirty-five, six times seven equals forty-two, and seven times seven equals forty-nine."
"When an object is not acted upon by an external force, it will remain at rest or in uniform linear motion..."
The girl loved the sound of reading aloud, and she loved the town.
Because this allows her to feel the beauty of the world, and that people have not disappointed the goddess's expectations, but are moving towards a better future.
Just as the girl was listening intently, a figure appeared in front of her.
The girl was neither surprised nor afraid of the figure that appeared; she simply looked at it with a calm gaze.
This figure was not one of the Trisolarans the girl had encountered along the way, but rather a genuine human.
The figure looked at the girl: "Your Excellency, have you been satisfied with what you have seen and heard along the way?"
The girl wasn't surprised that the Trisolarans had discovered her. She hadn't hidden or avoided them along the way, so it would have been strange if the Trisolarans hadn't found her.
The girl did not answer the figure's question, but said, "I can sense that you do not belong to this world. You came here from another world."
It's not surprising that the girl could tell that the Trisolaran civilization came from another world, and that her figure was not obvious. If even she couldn't tell, then there would be very few people in the entire Qin's Time universe who could.
The figure smiled and said, "Nice to meet you. My name is Cheng Yuan, and I am currently the Supreme Administrator of the Trisolaran Empire."
"Are you the supreme ruler of the Trisolaran civilization?"
The figure's identity surprised the girl. After thinking for a moment, she replied, "My name is Xiao Li, and I am a tear shed by a goddess thousands of years ago."
The girl's identity is a tear shed by the creator goddess Jiutian Xuannv of the Qin Dynasty world.
At this moment, on planet LV-223, all the governors, including Cheng Yuan, were on high alert.
Although we had made various preparations beforehand, this was, after all, our first time coming into direct contact with an existence directly related to God, and who knew whether the preparations would be effective.
In a massive laboratory at LV-223, numerous Trisolaran scientists are operating equipment to observe and analyze the girl.
"No abnormal energy fluctuations were observed in the target. The trace radiation emitted by the target is consistent with previous observations and is almost indistinguishable from that of an ordinary girl from the Xuan Plane."
Among the Trisolarans who are not ruling officials, the Qin Dynasty plane is called the "Mysterious Plane".
"Based on the shadow and footprints left by the target on the ground, its height is still 158.791263cm and its weight is still 48.367591kg."
Based on the observed data, the girl should be an ordinary girl from the Xuan dimension. However, what normal girl would have a constant level of trace radiation emitted by her body, and her weight and height have not changed at all in the past year?
You never see a young girl washing clothes, yet her clothes are never dirty, worn, or old, as if their state has been fixed.
We have never observed the girl excreting. She has eaten, but we don't know where those things went, and she hasn't gained even 1mg of weight.
The fact that the Trisolaran civilization would adopt a gentler approach to the Qin Dynasty world is largely due to the influence of the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden.
Today, the Trisolaran civilization has initially completed the transformation of the Qin Dynasty plane, making it prosperous and developing in a positive direction. One of its purposes is to make the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden have something to worry about.
This is why, even though they discovered Xiao Li much earlier, they only made contact with her a year later:
It will take a year to bring the people of the Qin Dynasty world onto the ship, so that even if the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden has opinions about them, she will not choose to fight them.
Of course, all of this is based on the premise that this goddess loves the world she created and the people she created. A gentleman can be deceived by his principles, and a god can be deceived by his love for people.
In retrospect, this strategy has been quite effective, as evidenced by Xiao Li's willingness to reveal her true identity.
Xiao Li said, "Thank you all for coming to our world to help us. I'm afraid even the goddess didn't expect that people could develop so well."
As she said this, Xiao Li looked at the passersby. Regardless of age or gender, almost everyone had a smile on their face.
This shows that people are satisfied with their current lives and have high hopes for the future.
This would have been unimaginable in Xinzheng City a year ago. Forget about having any hope for the future, you had to be careful even when you went out on the street. Back then, the princes and nobles were very domineering.
Xiao Li and Cheng Yuan were talking by the roadside, but no one passing by noticed them, as if no one was there.
The Trisolaran scientists on LV-223 noticed this and, while recording, analyzed: "It's not optical invisibility, nor is it spatial isolation; it's suspected that the target has altered the perceptions of passersby, making them unable to see or hear."
Xiao Li sighed and continued, "Although the goddess created this world and created people, she did not know how to make people live well. This is something that the goddess, as a god, could not do."
"The changes you have brought to the world, though in a short time, are very good in my opinion. All people are born equal, there is no longer a distinction between high and low, noble and lowly, everyone earns what they need through their own labor, mistakes are punished, and merits are rewarded."
"If the goddess herself could see the world as it is now, she would surely be delighted. You have brought wonderful changes to our world!"
