Chapter 1: Prisoner of War Boys!
The mainland of Shenzhou, within the territory of the Western Song Dynasty.
The snowflakes flying all over the sky dyed the whole land white!
However, in the area of dozens of miles outside Jianning City, there is such an abandoned white jade pit.
The pit is empty all year round, but recently there is a group of prisoners of war working hard in the pit under the whip of the overseer.
This group of prisoners of war was originally a sergeant of the Eastern Xia Kingdom, and in a war, they were defeated and captured, and so far they became prisoners of war, and they lived hard in torture day and night.
The group of prisoners of war were dressed shabby, even in snowy weather, wearing prisoners' clothes, with chains on their feet and feet, and there was no freedom at all, and among the prisoners of war, there was a thin teenager who looked out of place compared to other strong prisoners of war.
Since ancient times, the Western Song Kingdom and the Eastern Xia Kingdom have been old enemies, and the war between the two countries has been fought for hundreds of years, and the Beisha Kingdom and the South China Sea Kingdom are also open and secret battles, and it has not been peaceful.
Only the Divine Empire of the Shenzhou Continent has always looked up at the starry sky, above all countries, and its strength is extremely strong, and it has always been indisputable with the world. The surrounding countries are working hard to tie up the Holy Empire, hoping to gain strength from it!
Therefore, this group of prisoners of war needs to dig up enough ore in three days to refine and create a huge Buddha statue to give to the Holy Empire as an annual pilgrimage!
This year, the road was closed by heavy snowfall, and the construction period was shortened, and if enough ore could not be dug up within three days, the group of prisoners of war would have to apologize for their crimes. Today is the last day!
"Hurry, hurry! You haven't eaten, use some strength, let me tell you, after today, one person will have a thousand catties of ore, and if you can't dig it, wait for death! The overseer waved the leather whip in his hand and scolded viciously at the prisoners below.
"Who's that, grinding, hurry up and work, do you want to die?" At this time, the overseer found a thin teenager in the group of prisoners of war, but in his eyes, this group of prisoners of war was not human at all.
"Overseer, I'm dying, let me take a break!" The young man's eyes were hollow, his whole body was like skin and bones, and the high-intensity work made him no longer look like a human and a ghost.
"No, when did you dig a thousand catties of ore, when are you resting! Syllable! The overseer was inhumane, and paid no attention to the boy's pleadings, and whipped the boy directly on him.
The young man was already weak, he was whipped by the leather whip, his body was like a spinning top, and he flew out dozens of meters away, smashed his head on a piece of ore, bleeding non-stop, and then stopped moving.
"Rubbish! Come on, carry that guy out and throw it away! Phew, that's bad luck! The overseer looked at the motionless young man, and after scolding angrily, he called two of his men, and the rest of the prisoners of war looked at the scene in front of them indifferently, and were reduced to prisoners of war, this way of death may also be a relief. The boy was thrown like a dead body and thrown directly into the thick snow. One of them couldn't help but probe the young man's snort, shook his head, and walked away without saying a word.
The pit was back to its previous appearance, as if the boy who had been thrown out had never appeared. The POWs were still mining hard, because some of the able-bodied POWs had already completed their goal of 1,000 catties of ore ahead of schedule.
This kind of barren mountains and wilderness, coupled with snowflakes flying, and harsh environment, even if you don't die, you won't be able to live for long. For such useless prisoners of war, it is quite merciful to throw them directly.
At night, the snowflakes in the sky had completely buried the young man's body, and the originally brightly lit pit became dim, and it seemed that many prisoners of war had successfully completed the task of 1,000 catties of ore.
The overseer had looked around the pit before turning away, for he still needed to take the prisoners of war and the ore to the smelting yamen in Jianning City.
Because this area is uninhabited, if it weren't for mining, there would not even be a ghost, and that young man would let him fend for himself!
I don't know how long it took, but in the distance, a meteor shower suddenly fell from the sky, and a very small meteorite fell.
A piece of crystal clear jade fell near the boy, and everything seemed so careless and fleeting.
And this flying stone seems to have life, constantly exuding energy, as if looking for a host that can be parasitized.
After a while, the young man's side was already a different look at this time, and at this time, you will find that the body that was originally covered by the snow has completely disappeared at this time.
The young man's body was like a huge furnace, causing all the snow around him to melt away, and the melted snow water actually poured into the jade stone in the form of water vapor.
The boy lying motionless on the ground did not react to this, but his body was repairing rapidly, and his originally thin skinny body became smooth and full.
After a while, the young prisoner of war actually woke up, and the whole person looked extremely energetic, as if he had changed into a different person.
"It turns out that the fate of this host is so bumpy. Well? Ye Shun, like me, is a good name! In the future, I will be you, you will be me, your body will be at my disposal, rest assured that I will avenge you and let you live a good life, but I am so tired now that I need to rest! A strange voice sounded, and then vanished again. As if it never appeared!
It turned out that the prisoner of war boy's name was Ye Shun, simple and simple, with black hair and jade face, and his appearance was that of a fourteen-year-old guy, even if his face was covered with some small wounds, he still couldn't hide that handsome face. Between the eyebrows is a maturity that is incomparable to that of his peers. Ye Shun was originally the third prince of the Eastern Xia Kingdom, and he was the third in line, and he has always lived a life without fighting with the world. His father had already appointed his eldest brother as the crown prince, and he was happy to be idle and lived a life of a little prince who ate and waited for death. Completely indisputable, but the sky is unpredictable, he actually became a prisoner of war and appeared in this wilderness.
Everything developed so fast that Ye Shun didn't have time to react, and in the end, he was even more miserable, and was directly whipped to death by the overseer, and his life was whimpered. The prisoners of war who were traveling with them didn't take a second look, let alone stand up, they were too much of a failure!
However, this unexpected rebirth, Ye Shun's bumpy life seems to be about to enter a new track.
As for where this track will lead in the future, it is still unknown, so let's follow the camera and set off!
