Chapter 1: The Visions of Heaven

Next Chapter

In 311 A.D., in the fifth year of Emperor Yongjia of the Western Jin Dynasty, in the first month, in Qingzhou, in a certain mountain, a meteor crossed the sky.

An old scholar was frightened, and couldn't help but hide his face and sigh, "The sky is chaotic, the world has been chaotic for a long time, and now there are strangers coming out, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse?!" Then he slammed his head open the tattered wooden door of his house, as if only the warmth of home could give him some comfort.

Since the death of Emperor Wu Sima Yan, the world has begun to become chaotic, first the rebellion of the Eight Kings exhausted the last trace of vitality of the Central Plains Dynasty, and then the Hu people, who had been recuperating for nearly 100 years, took advantage of the situation and wantonly entered the Central Plains, bringing heavy disasters to the Han people.

The reason why this scholar behaved so out of shape was mainly because he had observed several abnormal celestial phenomena before, and each time he thought it was the Lord of Heaven descending, but who knew that it was the Demon King of the Mixed World.

The reader who returned to the house picked up a copy of the Book of Changes at the bedside, gently wrapped it in the quilt and read it for a while, but couldn't help crying loudly.

The sky is dark, and the earth is pale

The stars are heavy, and people are panicking

Dead wood is fluttering

Depressed and sad, only sad

……

"The savior is coming, hehe......" In the hut, the reader lying on the bed kept crying out of the corners of his eyes, but with a smile on his lips, he kept repeating in a low voice.

Beyond this mountain, in the land where countless sons and daughters had been raised, countless banners were raised and cut down, countless bodies stood up and fell, countless bones were exposed in the wilderness, and countless bearded people were driving the captive people to the camp in front of them.

Everything is like an Asura field......

At this moment, the royal families in the south of the Yangtze River are distributing the crippled world in drunken dreams and death. The winners are high-minded, the losers are gearing up, and who will pity and pay attention to the people in the north?

At the same time, a young man who did not belong to this era was wandering in the Laoshan Mountains in ignorance.

"Mother! Why get lost? Why is the good road suddenly gone? ”

A young man in his twenties touched his chin and said to himself, this young man's name is Wei Shuo, and he is a stunned young man who has just stepped into society from school. However, his life is better. As soon as I graduated, I was caught by a private company, although I was just a small staff who did not enter the stream, but I was much better than most graduates of the same age who could not find a job.

New Year's Day is approaching, Wei Shuo's company intends to take this opportunity to make a lot of money, and the boss will send the company's elite soldiers to carry out publicity activities in the Laoshan area. And Wei Shuo, as a small person, some errands and miscellaneous work fell on his head.

Finally completed the task assigned by the boss, Wei Shuo hurriedly bought a few roasted corn and roasted sweet potatoes to prepare to treat himself, but who knew that suddenly a heavy fog fell, and the visibility was only about half a meter for a while.

Wei Shuo didn't dare to mess around, so he had to stay where he was and wait patiently, but he didn't know how long it took for the fog to dissipate, but he found that the outside world was no longer human. The banner that used to hang high has long since disappeared, and the streets that used to be bustling with traffic have now become barren and grassy, and there is no trace of human habitation at all.

"Shhh This...... This...... Where has this man gone? ”

In fact, not only the flow of people has disappeared, but also the surrounding environment has changed, the bare stones all over the Laoshan Mountain have disappeared, and the eyes are full of tall and thick trees and vine branches that are intertwined.

Wei Shuo took out his mobile phone and looked at it, only to find that there was no signal at all, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense. He discerned the direction a little, and fortunately it was on Laoshan Mountain, otherwise he might not be able to find a way down the mountain if he changed the mountain.

He didn't know how long he walked, but just when his hungry eyes were dizzy and his limbs were weak, he suddenly saw a valley, the valley was narrow, but it was only a hundred miles in radius, but a few dilapidated thatched huts in the valley attracted his attention. For Wei Shuo, who is eager to see people, these huts are really much more important than anything else.

Wei Shuo wiped the sweat from his forehead, patted the backpack behind him again, and walked towards a thatched hut with a resolute step.

Speaking of backpacks, Wei Shuo couldn't help but think of another strange thing, that is, the roasted corn and roasted sweet potatoes he bought before somehow became raw again? He couldn't figure out how to think about it, but he was afraid that it was related to the inexplicable fog, but at the moment, Wei Shuo didn't care about getting to the bottom of it.

In fact, not only did the ripe corn become raw corn, but the quantity also increased, four times more than the original two cobs, and the sweet potatoes also underwent such an incredible change.

Standing in front of the dilapidated thatched hut, Wei Shuo knocked on the door gently, but for some reason no one responded inside, is there no one at home? Wei Shuo couldn't make up his mind and didn't know whether to change his home, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, an old voice came from inside the house.

"Who?"

"Is anyone there? I'm passing through and want to ask about something. Hearing that there were people in the house, Wei Shuo was overjoyed and couldn't help but shout.

I don't know how long it took, and the owner opened the door. Zhang Laohan was originally an ordinary farmer in Buqi County, but in his early years, he had to flee with his family because he was unbearable to be oppressed by large households and officials. In recent years, as the Hu people have ravaged the Central Plains, more and more people have fled to the south or into the mountains and forests.

Even the valley where Zhang Laohan lived took in more than 100 families, all of whom were desperate tenants and poor families. Although life in the mountains is difficult, everyone can help each other and get by. In this troubled world where people are not as good as dogs, it is a blessing to have such a paradise.

In addition to the need to buy necessities such as salt, Zhang Laohan and they did not leave this valley easily, on the one hand, there is a shortage of soldiers outside, and they will not be spared once they encounter Hu soldiers or thieves; On the other hand, everyone is also afraid that the outside world will find out about this place and invite trouble.

Since moving to this nameless valley, Zhang Laohan has never received passers-by, but today's arrival of Wei Shuo has broken the peaceful life in the valley. Because he couldn't figure out Wei Shuo's reality and his son and daughter-in-law were not at home, only his grandchildren accompanied him. So when he heard the question of the young man outside, Zhang Laohan had to pretend that there was no one at home.

However, later, Zhang Laohan found that Wei Shuo did not forcibly break in, but politely planned to leave. This made him let down his guard a lot, and he mustered up the courage to open the door.

I saw a white-faced young man standing opposite, dressed in fancy clothes, with a big package on his shoulder.

The most eye-catching thing is the short black hair of the person who came, and he was dressed as a monk or a monk, which made Zhang Laohan stunned for a while, and he didn't know how to react.

In fact, not only Zhang Laohan was shocked, but even Wei Shuo himself was stunned when he saw Zhang Laohan dressed as an ancient, although he had already made a little preparation in his heart, but when all this really happened, Wei Shuo still couldn't accept it.

"Dare to ask my husband, what kind of place is this?"

"Changguang County is not its county."

"Dare to ask my husband, when is it now?"

"Yongjia five years, the eighteenth day of the first month."

Yongjia five years?! Could it be the famous Yongjia Rebellion in history? Thinking that at this time, the northern Han people were falling under the iron hooves of the Hu people, Wei Shuo couldn't help but shudder. Even if he never studied history again, Wei Shuo knew what a bad era it was.

There are various reasons for the tragedy of Wuhu Chaohua, but Wei Shuo feels that there is one reason that cannot be ignored, that is, the lack of Han talents and the rise of Hu talents. Thinking back to the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, the Han nationality can be said to have produced a large number of talents, whether it is a big family or a Hanmen Shu clan, a large number of talents have emerged.

But by the time the Sima family usurped the throne, the family was already unable to make ends meet, and the Jiupin Zhongzheng system blocked the way of the Hanmen Shu clan, resulting in a talent gap in the Western Jin Dynasty. Not only was there a foolish emperor, but also a large number of corpses and vegetarians stole the court, which made the court lack vigilance against its own problems and the Hu people in the north.

However, at this time, the Hu people of various ethnic groups in the north had recovered their vitality after recuperation, and some Han scholars who had fled to the border Hu people to escape the war made the Hu people accelerate the absorption and utilization of Han culture, and produced a large number of Hu leaders with outstanding abilities.
