It has been raining heavily for half a month, and it seems that there is a curtain of water between heaven and earth. There was a damp smell in the air, and the smell of rotting plants and trees was everywhere between the mouth and nose, and the smell made people's emotions extremely low.

Ge Ying looked at the rain outside the temple for a long time, and sighed; "Why hasn't it rained for fifteen days? What can I do if this continues? ”

Chen Sheng also looked at the rain attentively, thinking about his thoughts, but he didn't reply.

He is eight years old in Chinese New Year's Eve, a native of Yangcheng, Yingchuan County, who has grown up tall and powerful, and has a high prestige in the township. Yangcheng County ordered to send a group of soldiers to Yuyang County, he was one of them, because he grew up tall and burly, and could read and write, he was liked by the county order, appointed as the head of the tun, and counted as a small leader among the nine hundred soldiers. Chen Sheng treated people boldly, and did everything fairly, and soon became the leader of these 900 people.

Chen Sheng glanced at the two generals who were scolding and drinking wine in the distance, and thought that the two would never hear the conversation of everyone in the temple, so he said in a deep voice; "Even if the rain stops, the bridge on the road has been washed away by the flood, and it is impossible to reach Yuyang at the scheduled time, so what awaits us is a dead end?"

Among the four, Wu Guang looked the most inconspicuous, short and thin like an ordinary peasant, but he was indeed the most brainy person among the four, after listening to Chen Sheng's words, he said with some hesitation; "Or let's escape, according to Qin's law, if we arrive more than ten days late, we will definitely be executed."

Chen Sheng shook his head and said; "Escape, where can you escape, it's best to just mix up the grass and be a coward, hungry and full every day, if you are unlucky, you will be caught by the government, even if you want to die at that time, I am afraid it will not be so easy."

Chen Sheng told the truth, Qin Luzhong's punishment of fugitives and fugitives was very severe, not only to be executed, but also to be punished with his nose cut before death, which was simply painful.

Sure enough, the three of them remembered Qin Lu's harshness, and their faces changed. Wu Chen couldn't hold his breath anymore and asked Chen Sheng; "Big brother, don't sell it, you have an idea, we will listen to you."

Chen Sheng let out a long sigh, looked around the three of them, and said for a long time; "Life is in the world, but in a few decades, we are also thirty or forty years old this year, how many years can we live. People live for a lifetime, grass and trees for an autumn, rather than humble and muddy like grass mustard, it is better to do a vigorous job. ”

Wu Guang's eyes widened and he said; "Big brother, what do you mean?"

"Anyway, it's death to advance and retreat, instead of sitting and waiting to die, we might as well fight hard, against the damn one, if we succeed, we may be able to seal the marquis and the king."

Chen Sheng's words exploded in the ears of the three of them like a bombshell, and all three of them opened their eyes and mouths wide, their faces full of disbelief.

From the moment they were born, they knew that they were born untouchables, that they were the heads of the Qian, and that they should be submissively subjected to labor and military service, and to be subjected to harsh taxes and exploitation. But no one ever told them why this was happening.

And Chen Sheng's words undoubtedly stirred up turbulent waves in their hearts, like a spark, igniting the raging anger in their hearts, the desire for power, money, women, and a better life. It's not that they haven't thought about it, but they don't dare to think about it, because they're afraid, they're afraid of losing what they have, like life.

But now Chen Sheng reminded them that now that they have nothing, what else do they need to be afraid of? It's better to give it a go.

Chen Sheng saw the desire in the hearts of the three of them, and he also knew that they were moved by what he said.

He Chen Sheng is different from anyone, he has never been a peaceful person.

Faced with the road washed away by the heavy rain, others thought of being executed if they couldn't arrive on time, and all they thought of was the destruction of their families and the separation of their wives, but he Chen Sheng smelled an opportunity from it.

An opportunity to get rich.

He has never lacked ambition, he seeks wealth and danger, he can break his bones for his ideals, he can go to the soup and fire, and he can die forever. Even if you can only be rich for one day, it is not in vain to come to this world with a bang. He never believed in fate, he didn't believe that he was destined to be destined, so he wanted to change, and worked hard to change, these words were also brewed by him for several days, and they really moved Wu Guang and the others.

Chen Sheng continued; "The world has been suffering for a long time, you look at those brothers around us, who doesn't hate those who are officials, and hates the emperor of Qin who is tyrannical. In the past, when the First Emperor was there, everyone in the world was afraid of him, and no one dared to openly oppose him. But now that he is dead, I heard that the second emperor is just a child who does not learn and does not know how to do it, and the heroes of the world are already ready to move, but no one wants to pick this head. I want to be the first one to jump out and raise our arms, and the whole world will respond. ”

Ge Ying asked suspiciously; "But we are just lowly poor people, those heroes of the world, will they listen to us?"

Chen Sheng had already thought about this question, and seemed to have a bamboo in his hand, so he replied eloquently: "It is said that the eldest son of the first emperor, Fusu Xiande, if he can inherit the throne, he will definitely be able to abolish the harsh government, and Daqin can also be stable for a long time." I listened to people from Guanzhong and said that this world was originally inherited by Fusu, but Hu Hai killed his brother and robbed the emperor's seat. The common people sympathized with Fusu and felt that he had died unjustly, and if we started an incident in the name of Fusu, the people who had suffered a lot would support us. ”

"There is also Xiang Yan, the general of the Chu State back then, who has a very high reputation in Chu. When the Qin State destroyed the Chu State, the Chu people suffered heavy casualties, and it was often heard that someone sang 'Although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu', it seems that the people of Chu hated the Qin people. We are in Chu now, if we use the banner of Xiang Yan again, then the Chu people will not gather to respond. ”

The three of them listened to Chen Sheng's words, and there was a blazing gaze in their eyes, and it was obvious that they were all persuaded by Chen Sheng.

Chen Sheng's four people can stand out in the team of 900 people and become the tun chief, they are all people with thoughts and means, and generally this kind of people have one characteristic, that is, restlessness in their bones. They are so ruthless and brave that they can even risk their lives for one breath. Similarly, in the face of wealth, they will not be stingy with a cheap life.

Wu Guang is a smart man, he quickly found the crux of the problem, and reminded Chen Shengdao: "Big brother, even if the three of us brothers are willing to follow you into trouble, how can we convince these poor brothers around us to follow us too?" ”

Chen Sheng scratched his head and smiled, his smile was a little dry, "I haven't thought about this yet." ”

Wu Guang and the three of them glanced at each other, thinking that it seemed that the eldest brother was just here to fool them, and he had no idea in his heart.

Chen Sheng looked at Wu Guang again and said, "Second brother, you have the most ghost ideas, why don't you come up with an idea." ”

Wu Guang tilted his head and thought for a long time, and said helplessly; "Big brother, you embarrass me, how can I be on the scene with this little cleverness of Wu Guang. We are poor and white, and our ancestors have been mud legs for eight generations. The Fusu, Xiang Yan or something you made up can be used to fool outsiders, these more than 900 people are all villagers, who still doesn't know our origins. ”

Wu Chen pondered for a long time, and suddenly said, "Big brother, I have an idea. ”

Chen Sheng hurriedly asked; "Third child, say it quickly."

Wu Chen asked Chen Sheng: "If we tell these poor brothers to fight against Qin with the eldest brother, do you guess what the first reaction of these people is, eldest brother?" ”

Chen Sheng shook his head, and Wu Chen continued; "The first reaction of these guys was to be scared, very scared. Because the Qin State is too powerful, it has only been more than ten years since it swept the Six Kingdoms. The Qin State still seems to be very powerful, so everyone thinks about how to just accept it and how to live tenaciously, but few people think about how to resist. ”

Wu Chen's words made Chen Sheng's eyes light up, and he couldn't help but look at Wu Chen with admiration. Among these four people, he only grew up with Wu Guang since childhood, and Wuchen and Ge Ying were just opposite-sex brothers who appreciated each other, far less intimate than Wu Guang. Now he realized that Wu Chen was actually very scheming, and he saw things very deeply, far from being as rough as he looked on the outside.

Wu Chen did not sell Guanzi, and continued; "In fact, we are all poor people, and what we fear most is heaven, and the emperor is the son of heaven - the son of heaven, who should be above all beings. And we are born to be poor, and we can only choose to suffer silently. It is not difficult to let these poor brothers follow us to start things together, as long as they believe that this is the destiny of heaven, God is no longer attached to Daqin, and the will of heaven should be the death of Qin, and you are the new destiny of heaven, big brother. ”

Wu Chen's words made Chen Sheng's heart flutter, and he hurriedly urged; "Then what do you say should be done?"

A hint of fierceness flashed in Wu Chen's eyes, and he said slowly; "This requires the four of us brothers to work together, once the eldest brother becomes king, we can also follow the marquis and worship the general."

******

The rain continued to fall, and despair spread among the nine hundred soldiers, and everyone looked at the gray sky with worry, thinking about their fate. At this time, suddenly an explosive news spread quickly among the soldiers, Wu Chen took a group of bitter brothers to pool money to buy a big fish from a nearby fisherman, originally wanted to open the meaty, but unexpectedly cut out a piece of yellow silk cloth in the belly of the fish, the silk cloth was written on the three words "Chen Shengwang", everyone has passed on, and even claimed to be surprised.

One night in the dead of night, a soldier got up in the middle of the night to relieve himself, but suddenly heard a series of terrible fox cries not far away, the voice was like human language, as if he was constantly shouting something. The soldier ran back to the camp in fright, and woke his companions in horror. How brave the people were, they mustered up the courage to approach slowly, and then they heard the bursts of fox roars and shouted: Da Chuxing, Chen Shengwang.

All kinds of rumors about Chen Sheng spread in the war, and some people said that the Qin State was about to perish, and the Chu State was going to prosper again, and the new King of Chu was Chen Sheng. Some people also say that Chen Sheng is a dragon and will be able to be the emperor in the future. The soldiers exchanged their heads one after another, and their eyes at Chen Sheng were also dodgy, not daring to face it.

All of this is brewing a huge storm, a storm that is enough to subvert the entire Great Qin.
