Next Chapter

Great Qin Empire, 37th year of Qin Shi Huang, Dune Palace.

The night was like ink, hot and not rainy, and thousands of miles of rivers and mountains were shrouded in death-like silence.

It was late, the lights in the palace were still bright, and the huge black shadows cast by the guards standing in the corridor on the walls, swaying with the beating of the candles, and the light of the fire reflected their bronze resolute faces. They were the Emperor's personal guards, the first emperor in history to hold such a vast territory.

Qin Shi Huang!

Among all the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire, they were the most honorable.

He is also the most powerful and most fearless warrior.

In the palace where hundreds of people are standing, there is no artificial sound, and even the slight explosion of the lights can be heard clearly.

Usually there is only one voice in the palace......

The sound of bamboo slips turning, that is Qin Shi Huang is flipping through the pieces sent from all over the country, weighing hundreds of catties every day. Sometimes the guards listened to this sound until it was dusk.

Today's Qin Shi Huang did not approve the recital, a few days ago when he crossed the Yellow River, he crashed into the bronze ice book because of dizziness, and he has been dizzy, he looked at the recital on the recital, which was more than two feet high, and his eyes showed a look of disgust.

Yes, facing these things every day, they will not emit the aroma of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they will not have the graceful posture of the dancing girl, no matter who they are, they will get tired of it.

He managed an empire of all kinds, stretching from the snow-capped northern wilderness to the rainy shores of the South China Sea, a glorious feat that no one had ever done before. He is the first emperor of the ages, he has enjoyed all the glory, as long as he speaks, there is nothing in the world that he cannot get.

But he was still not happy.

The damned Huns have not been completely wiped out, and at some point, they will come roaring, burning down the houses of the Qin people and plundering the women of the Qin State. forced him to build a large number of buildings and build the Great Wall.

Damn Xu Fu, Lu Sheng, none of these people went to find immortal medicine, none of them succeeded, and the resources they spent could build ten Xianyang Palaces.

And this damn weather......

The emperor got up, refreshed his body for a moment, then drew his long sword from the rack and danced it a few times, the sweltering heat made him sweat immediately. He lowered his sword, picked up the castanets and struck them twice.

Soon a guard ran in, and the emperor said, "Pour wine ......."

The sweet wine suitable for quenching thirst at night was on the dining table, and the guard filled two glasses, bowed his head and sent them forward, and the emperor took them one by one, drank them all, and then waved his hand. Motioned for the guard to go out, then walked back to the back of the recital.

But he found that the guard was still standing with his head bowed.

Maybe he didn't see his own order, but the emperor opened Chrysostom this time: "Retreat." ”

The Guardian remained standstill.

A cold light began to flash in the emperor's slender eyes, and his voice became colder and colder: "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The guard replied.

The Emperor's heart suddenly moved, he felt that this voice was very familiar, it must have been heard before.

"Raise your head!" The emperor commanded.

The guard lifted slowly, and when his gaze met the Emperor, he saw that the Emperor frowned visibly.

"Are you...... You are ......"

The emperor seemed to recognize the person in front of him, but he didn't dare to recognize him.

The guard lowered his voice: "Your Majesty, Weichen Xu Fu is back." ”

The emperor stood up suddenly, and his voice was obviously trembling: "Xu Fu, are you really Xu Fu?" ”

Xu Fu smiled: "Weichen shaved his beard and dyed his eyebrows, His Majesty can't recognize it, and it's not strange." ”

The emperor just wanted to laugh, but he didn't laugh out loud, and he realized that Xu Fu disguised himself as a guard to meet him, and he must have a big secret to face.

Therefore, he suppressed his excitement and asked, "The elixir has been found?" ”

Xu Fu's eyebrows were jumping, and it could be seen that he was also trying his best to control his mood: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen lived up to his expectations, and finally met the immortal in the overseas immortal mountain and got the immortal medicine." The immortal has ignited Weichen, and after delivering the immortal medicine to His Majesty, Weichen will go to Xianshan to cultivate, and will never return to the world. ”

The emperor's heart almost jumped out: "Where is the elixir?" ”

Xu Fu took out a bottle of mutton fat jade from his bosom and gently put it on the table: "This is the Liuyang Golden Pill, there are three of them, swallowed by the living, can prolong life for 3,000 years, if it is dissolved with red mercury (mercury) and immersed in the body of the dead, the dead can also be reborn, return to the prime of life, although it cannot prolong life, it can live another life." ”

The emperor snatched the bottle, his eyes glowed with a sparkle that he had never seen before, he uncorked the bottle, poured out a purple pill the size of a grape, and it was fragrant.

He hurriedly ordered to fetch the wine, but Xu Fu hurriedly stopped: "Your Majesty, don't be anxious, Weichen's words haven't been finished yet." The emperor said, "What else do you have to say?" ”

Xu Fu said: "Although this medicine is good, but after a living person takes it, he will not be able to wake up for a long time, just like a hibernating snake, no different from death." The emperor was furious: "It's no different from death, what's the use of serving!" Xu Fu hurriedly said: "This medicine is a thing that captures the heavens and the earth, only if the immortals take it, they will not fall asleep and prolong their lives, although Your Majesty is a dragon body, after all, it is different from the immortals who soar in the daytime." ”

The emperor relieved himself slightly: "Go on." ”

Xu Fu wiped a cold sweat: "If you take this medicine, all the ills will disappear, and people will be like a turtle in peace, once someone is disturbed in three thousand years, you can wake up at any time, and then you will be reborn in the world, and there will be another atmosphere." ”

The emperor sneered: "My Great Qin Empire has been going on for thousands of years, if I return to the world after more than a thousand years, how can future generations recognize this ancestor!" ”

A strange smile flashed on Xu Fu's face: "Ancestral Dragon died ...... this year"

The emperor was startled, and immediately regained his yin owl look: "That was last year. ”

He remembered very well that last autumn, when his envoy passed by Huayin, someone handed the envoy a piece of jade wall and said these words. That piece of jade wall turned out to be sunk into the river when he sacrificed to the river. At the moment, Xu Fu mentioned this matter, and he didn't know what he meant.

Xu Fu did not let the emperor wait for a long time: "The celestial phenomena have changed, and Yingfu should guard his heart, and he should be in Your Majesty." Therefore, the immortals only delivered the immortal medicine, and after more than a thousand years, His Majesty should be reborn, if he did not take this medicine, His Majesty was only afraid of ...... I won't live this year. ”

The emperor slapped the case angrily, but Xu Fu raised his head very hard and looked directly at him.

After a long time, the emperor slowly sat down, he stroked the jade bottle, and suddenly asked, "You said it was an immortal medicine, how can you prove it?" Xu Fu smiled: "Of course the minister wants to try to take a pill, but this kind of immortal medicine is not something that the minister can accept, but if he doesn't accept it, His Majesty will think that I am deceiving, it is better to use a little immortal magic to prove that I have indeed been to the immortal mountain and seen the immortals." ”

The emperor said: "It's so good, but I don't know what kind of immortal art it is." ”

Xu Fu took a few steps closer and stroked it from his forehead with his hand.

Strange things happened, Xu Fu's eyebrows turned white again, wrinkles were also revealed, and when he went down, the snow-white beard slowly grew, and in an instant, Xu Fu in front of him returned to his previous appearance.

The Emperor stood up in astonishment, staring at it without turning his eyes.

Xu Fu smiled: "This is a technique of rejuvenation, just a small means." ”

Only then did the emperor smile with satisfaction: "So, I believe your words. You have merit in finding medicine, and you can just tell us what you want. ”

Xu Fu smiled and shook his head: "Weichen is about to leave the world, and there is no need for anything." ”

The emperor's eyes showed reluctance: "You are a loyal person, I have not mistrusted you." ”

Xu Fu turned around and wanted to leave, but he stood still. The Emperor asked, "Do you want anything?" Xu Fu shook his head, he listened to the movement around, walked to the door again, closed the palace door, came to the emperor's side, and said: "Weichen does have a thing, but this matter leaks the secret of heaven, and it shouldn't be said, but Weichen is deeply valued by His Majesty, and he obeys his words and can't repay him, and now he has to fight to suffer bad luck, and he has to tell the truth to His Majesty." ”

The emperor also lowered his voice: "What is the heavenly opportunity?" ”

Xu Fu said: "I heard the immortals talking about your empire, and they said...... They say that it is impossible for my Great Qin to be inherited for thousands of years, so more than a thousand years later, on the day of His Majesty's rebirth, he should revive Great Qin. ”

When the emperor heard this, he was disappointed and very excited, because his innate desire to conquer was innate to unify the six countries, attack the Xiongnu in the north, and Pingping Baiyue in the south, he had no place to conquer, and if he could do it again, it would be much more interesting.

Xu Fudao: "But there is a difficulty, although Your Majesty is talented, but you also need the help of famous ministers and tiger generals, I don't know who Your Majesty wants to assist?" ”

The emperor thought for a moment: "Li Simengtian are all outstanding talents, but the current empire still needs them, but others are not qualified for this......"

His eyes suddenly lit up: "You said that immortal medicine can resurrect the dead?" Xu Fu nodded, and the emperor became excited: "You do something, and then go back to Xianshan when you finish it." Xu Fu knelt down: "Your Majesty ordered, Weichen must do his best." ”

The emperor unfolded a piece of white silk, wrote some words on it, and handed it to Xu Fu, who unfolded it, nodded slightly, and finally said: "Your Majesty, this person can't do it, he suffered the punishment of car splitting, his body is incomplete, and he can't be resurrected." ”

The emperor had to shake his head: "It's a pity, can other people be?" ”

Xu Fu said: "As long as the body is complete." Wechen will do it. The emperor said, "Call the prime minister, and I will discuss the mausoleum with him." ”

Xu Fu received the order, once again performed immortal arts, went to the beard, and left the palace.

It was a very secret meeting, no third person knew about it, and the next night, the mighty Qin Shi Huang stopped breathing in the Dune Palace.

After that, everyone knew what happened, the second ascended the throne, Li Si was killed, Zhao Gao was autocratic, and the Great Qin Empire began to waver, until that rainy night......

Daze Township!

"Da Chuxing, King Chen Sheng!"

"The king and the general, rather have a kind!"

Before the sound of the fox chirping, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu's army crushed the Guanshan of the Qin people, and the Great Qin Empire died.

Qin Shi Huang will not know all this, he is sleeping in the mausoleum at the foot of Li Mountain at this time, no one bothers him, even if he burned the Afang Palace and killed countless Qin people, the Chu Overlord only destroyed everything on the ground, and did not touch his underground mausoleum.

History is like a long river, rolling forward, Han Wen Wei Wu, Tang Dynasty Song Zu, a generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan, and the Zhu Chongba, who was a monk and wanted to eat......

They rise and fall one after another, and go forward one after another, so that the Central Plains is always staging the collision of iron and blood, ice and fire.

Until...... 1,800 years later......
