Volume 1: The Supreme Mandate of Heaven Chapter 9: Valuable (II)
Chen Sheng's expression was solemn and he took over this priceless rare treasure. And the unexpected and bizarre thing happened at this moment!
Suddenly, Chen Sheng only felt a feeling that seemed to be extremely cold and hot, and it was so strange that it was indescribable, like real flowing water penetrating through his palms and pouring straight into his arms. There is no doubt that it is the strange energy contained in He's Bi.
Just now, it was just a contact in the air, and Chen Shengdu was already deeply affected. Now that there is really zero-distance contact, He's influence on Chen Sheng has increased tenfold? When the energy entered the body, Chen Sheng only felt that his whole body was swollen and cracked, his heart was so irritable that he seemed to be able to explode at any time, the capillaries of his whole body were straight and firm, and his eyes, ears, mouth and nose seemed to be sealed. If he hadn't had a will as strong as steel, he would have been mad by now!
Such a strange phenomenon is definitely a blessing in disguise. Chen Sheng subconsciously wanted to let go of He Shibi to prevent that strange energy from continuing to pour into his body. Unfortunately, it was already too late. Wherever He's energy reaches, Chen Sheng's sense of touch seems to be ten times more sensitive than usual, but at the same time, it seems that he has lost control of his muscles, so that his whole body can't move, even if he wants to put Heshibi down, he can't do it.
He Shibi's mysterious and unpredictable power does not know how many tens of millions of years it has been accumulated. Once it is vented, it is like the Three Gorges Dam opening the gate to release water. The torrent of energy is mighty and unstoppable. In an instant, this strange energy, which was both cold and hot, had occupied every inch of the meridians in Chen Sheng's body. And then Chen Sheng's body began to be transformed. At the same time, it also triggered all kinds of illusions.
The transformation process was extremely painful, as if there were thousands of ice blades and fire swords, slashing and stabbing in the body at the same time, even more painful than any kind of torture. But Chen Sheng didn't feel it. Countless strange scenes, in response to He's transformation of the body, constantly flashed in his mind. It was so strange that it was indescribable. The starry sky, the vast void, time and space, are infinitely extended in it, and it is so grand and magnificent that people are addicted. But in this beauty, there is a terrible end that may be broken at any time and die on the spot!
The danger caused by He's Bi is certainly extremely dangerous to Chen Sheng himself, but from the outside, it is difficult to find the clues. In the eyes of everyone in the general hall, just after seeing Chen Sheng take over the He's bi, he suddenly stood stiff all over, his face was red and white, as if he had some kind of emergency illness.
At first, everyone didn't think about it, they just felt that this was a normal reaction for anyone who suddenly came into contact with the strange treasure of He's Bi. However, Chen Sheng held He's Bi and passed for a long time, still not letting go. Everyone couldn't help but have all kinds of speculations in their hearts, and they had various reactions because of this. The eldest prince was puzzled, Tian Dan sneered, and Cao Qiudao was disdainful.
Seeing that the situation was not right, King Qi next to him immediately coughed and glanced at the second prince. The second prince hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Chen Bingwei, you seem to be a little uncomfortable?" Be careful. He didn't ask about thirty-seven twenty-one, and stretched out his hand to take He's bi away from Chen Sheng's hand.
He Shibi continued to release that strange energy, and Chen Sheng's hands seemed to be stuck to it, and he had no ability to take the initiative to shake it off. However, this strange energy was only effective for Chen Sheng himself, and as soon as the second prince stretched out his hand, he immediately easily separated He Shibi and Chen Sheng.
The human and the strange treasure are separated from each other, and the transmission of energy is also stopped. Chen Shenghu's body shook violently and immediately regained consciousness. His throat was sweet, and he couldn't help but have a large mouthful of blood gushing up, wanting to spurt out. But this mouthful of blood spurted out, and the blind man could see that there must be something wrong with him. Chen Sheng subconsciously forcibly swallowed the blood back, his body shook twice, and finally sat down on the spot uncontrollably.
The second prince was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly put down He's Bibi and stepped forward to support Chen Sheng, and asked repeatedly, "Chen Bingwei, what's wrong with you?" โ
Chen Sheng exhaled slowly, and between deep breaths, he felt that the extremely cold and hot energy flow in his body had completely disappeared, and in its place, it was another strange and extremely strange feeling. It's hard to describe in words, but roughly speaking, it seems that the whole body is bathed in warm sunlight, and there is an indescribable comfort. The altar was clear, and there was an indescribable ecstasy in my heart and the satisfaction of no longer asking for it.
Chen Sheng opened his eyes and found that the whole world was completely different. The person who is presented in front of him at this moment is a completely different shijie compared to before. Not only does the layering and richness of the sรจ color multiply, but the most touching thing is that looking out through the window door, Chen Sheng can even clearly see the various postures of each leaf in the morning light and under the soft wind.
Chen Sheng was so moved that the tiger's body shook violently again, and he knelt down subconsciously, tears bursting out of his eyes uncontrollably. He closed his eyes, and the inner and outer heavens and the earth immediately merged into one. The warm sunshine came from the east and threw itself on Chen Sheng. In his life, he had never felt his existence and the meaning of life as clearly as he saw in front of him.
At this moment, no one present could understand that He Shibi had changed Chen Sheng forever. At present, he has not practiced any internal strength, although Chen Sheng's own martial arts, although there is also the concept of internal strength and innate true power, but in essence, it is still a kind of muscle liliang, and the special energy "internal force" that exists in the body, which are completely different things, so the huge benefits brought by He's bi, Chen Sheng can't fully appreciate it for a while. But after that, as long as he began to cultivate the true internal force, then he would find out how lucky he was.
What happened to Chen Sheng, apart from himself, no second person knew. Since He Shibi has been separated from him, then everyone doesn't care. This thing was so precious that the second prince didn't dare to hold it for a long time, so he hurriedly sent it back to King Qi.
King Qi sighed, put He Shibi back on the lid of the box, and sighed: "Zhao Guoxinjun, you are really generous. In the past, the king of Qin was willing to exchange the fifteen cities for the Heshi Bi, and he was willing to take it out as a gift. Hehe~~ It's a pity that compared with He's Bi, the widow still thinks that the land population of the fifteenth city is more practical. Envoy, since Zhao has a sincere alliance, why not go back to report to your monarch and use fifteen cities as a gift for the alliance? โ
Although the King of Qi is a little greedy for money, he can still be regarded as a qualified monarch after all. Although the Heshi Bi is good, it is not comparable to the land population of fifteen cities. If Zhao was really willing to cede fifteen cities, then it didn't matter if Qi participated in the merger. At most, it will be enough to work at that time.
Pang Xuan smiled slightly again and said, "Why does the king refuse to let people thousands of miles away? This time, our country has come up with full sincerity. As for the fifteen cities, it's just a trivial matter. If your country is willing to agree to participate in the joint rebellion against Qin, then Pang Xuan hereby agrees on behalf of our king, no matter whether the Qin break is successful or not, the fifteen cities will be given with both hands, and will never break their promises. โ
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was surprised. I never imagined that Zhao Guo would be so willing. In addition to He's Bi, he took out fifteen more cities as gifts. The second prince couldn't help but ask, "Is Zhao really willing to cede fifteen cities?" Which fifteen cities are there? โ
Pang Xuan casually said a few names. He didn't say anything about Youzike, but when he said the names of these cities, everyone was shocked and stunned. Even Tian Dan couldn't help frowning and said, "Wait, did Envoy Pang remember wrong?" These cities...... It is clear that they are all cities in Yan Kingdom, not all in Zhao Kingdom. โ
Pang Xuan smiled: "Of course there is no mistake. Indeed, our Zhao State is planning to send these cities to the Qi Kingdom. After a pause, his face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "But if the Qi country is still unwilling, then we have no choice but to give up inviting your country to participate in the alliance." But the anti-Qin plan is imperative. Since there is no harvest in Linzi, I have to go to Jicheng to walk around to see if I can have a harvest. โ
Diplomacy is not something that can be defeated by blindly saying good things about being soft. Carrots and sticks go hand in hand to achieve the goal more effectively. Jicheng is the capital of Yan State, and Pang Xuan's implication is that if Qi insists on refusing to join the joint anti-Qin resistance, then the five countries that have already joined the three Jin and Chu Wei will regard Qi as an enemy.
Thirty years ago, the countries could unite and support the Yan State in attacking the Qi State. Thirty years later, the nations will be able to do the same thing one more time. Of course, after all, there was just a truce between Zhao and Yan, and the general of Yan State, Ji Xin, was defeated by Pang Xuan and died. The vitality of the Yan Kingdom was greatly damaged, and it was unable to send troops to attack Qi again. But with the support of the five-nation coalition, then ......
Thinking of the consequences of this incident, King Qi certainly changed his face, and even Tian Dan, who supported Hezong, couldn't help but feel angry. Qi is a great power in the world. Since the time of Duke Qi Huan, he has always been the chief of the princes. It is really unbearable to be threatened so nakedly! However, while being angry, the two of them couldn't suppress the slightest fear in their hearts. Fighting alone, the Qi ** team is not afraid of any other country in the world. But if the princes join forces to attack Qi, the Qi country will not be able to resist it. Could it be ...... Can you really only give in?
However, once it surrenders, the status of Qi among the nations will be greatly reduced. That's all. The most important thing is that if the countries see that the Qi country is so weak, maybe they will have other thoughts. What is the promise of taking the fifteen cities of the Yan Kingdom to the Qi Kingdom, there is no need to expect to be fulfilled. And that's just a trifle. If the princes saw the sweetness and joined forces to pounce on the soft persimmons, what would it be? At that time, Tian Dan will have three heads and six arms, and if he puts a hundred more fire ox formations, it will still be useless. Isn't the country of Qi going to perish?
