"Eighty, eighty, eighty..."
The palace of the Prince of Jin sits on Mount Chao.
In a cave halfway up the mountain, a young man's shout could be heard faintly.
Shen Liang held the sledgehammer high in the cave, sweating profusely.
This is already his fourteenth year digging holes in Zuochao Mountain.
"I'm tired, change to a small hammer."
Throw away the sledgehammer and replace it with a small one, and Shen Liang's slogan also changes accordingly.
"Forty, forty, forty..."
It wasn't until all his strength was exhausted that he sat down on the ground and took a gulp of water, reflecting the light of the torch inserted into the stone wall.
"Granny, when other people travel through time, they all have a stupid system of 'signing in for the first time to claim the empress' when they first come up, but as for me, I don't have any hair!"
“Forget it if you don’t give it to the system.”
"Then if you want me to be reborn in a world where martial arts is prevalent, do you have to give me an invincible and perverted martial arts talent?"
"So what's the point of the Nine Palaces being blocked and unable to practice martial arts? Are you just hanging out here with me?!"
Although Shen Liang kept chattering, from the bottom of his heart, he was still grateful for God's blessing.
In his last life, he was born in a world where technology had reached its peak.
He has had excellent grades since he was a child and has an outstanding mind.
After graduating from high school, he applied for the military academy and became the king of Xia's special forces in just eight years.
However, the over-exploitation of resources by countries around the world has caused Aquamarine to enter the Ice Age again.
So that only a very small number of people were selected as human fire and boarded the perpetual train with abundant material reserves.
Unexpectedly, when the train entered the tunnel, it suddenly trembled violently.
Everything that happened after that was like the dream he had repeatedly after his rebirth.
The train entered a dark space filled with stars. The powerful force of tearing crushed everyone including him into powder, and their souls twisted and evaporated, disappearing into nothingness!
Only he, relying on his strong spiritual power, followed the train here with his weak but surviving soul. The train was buried deep in the mountains, and his soul found a nearby baby who had just been born and died early due to lack of soul. body, able to live a new life.
And the mountain where the train was buried in the dream was exactly the Chao Mountain where the Jin Palace lived!
After complaining angrily, Shen Liang looked at the bumpy stone wall in front of him and sighed heavily:
"Well, maybe it was really just a dream. Think about it. If the perpetual train traveled here with me, wouldn't it directly shatter the worldview of the people of the day?"
"I'm so stupid, really."
"He actually dug a hole for fourteen years for a dream."
…
Sit on the top of Chao Mountain and look inside the Carp Pavilion.
A laid-back middle-aged man in a round-neck robe was leaning on a lounge chair and squinting to enjoy the cool air.
Standing next to him was a very eye-catching, indifferent young man. The reason why he was eye-catching was mainly because his exposed skin was an abnormal blue color.
"Father, what is hidden in this Chao Mountain?"
Xu Longyi asked confusedly, and Shen Wanjun answered calmly.
"You were there when the palace was built. I asked the craftsmen to pile up stones and wood to build this Chaoshan Mountain. If there is something hidden inside, how could you and I not know about it?"
Xu Longyi thought carefully for a moment and became more and more confused.
"Then why has His Highness spent most of his time digging mountains since he was three years old?"
Shen Wanjun turned sideways and said angrily:
"You ask me who should I ask? It's not like you don't know the temper of this little ancestor. He doesn't allow me to send people to help dig the mountain. At most, after digging the mountain every day, he asks me to arrange for people to stabilize the cave. He doesn't do it himself. Ken said, how can I dare to ask further?"
Xu Longyi obviously knew this, so he changed the topic and reported:
"Father, the cities of Jinzhou, especially our Jincheng, have become increasingly unpalatable to His Highness."
Shen Wanjun's interest was aroused.
"Oh? I like to hear and talk about this."
Xu Longyi didn't hide it either.
"They said His Highness's actions were due to the fact that the rat spirit possessed by him from birth had completely invaded his mind and turned into a monster who only knows how to dig holes every day."
Shen Wanjun smiled and nodded gently.
"Well, continue."
"Some people say that His Highness was not possessed by a rat spirit when he was born, but that his adoptive mother was a rat spirit herself."
After hearing this, the smile on Shen Wanjun's face disappeared instantly.
"How many people are talking about this latter argument?"
Just as Xu Longyi was about to answer, Shen Wanjun changed his mind.
"Forget it, it's not important."
"Go and find out who said these things."
"Then, kill them all."
Xu Longyi put his right hand on his chest and knelt on one knee.
"Dragon Yi takes command!"
…
After taking a breath, Shen Liang, who had almost decided to give up, picked up the torch and walked out of the cave.
Not far from the mountain forest, a palace servant came running in a hurry.
"Your Highness! Your Highness! Something bad has happened!"
Seeing the servant's panic expression, Shen Liang extinguished the torch slowly, not worrying about any danger.
After all, everyone knows the truth.
That is——
It would be better to cause chaos in the Dayan Palace than to break into the Jin Palace.
Since the completion of the Jin Palace, more than twenty years ago, all assassins who attempted to kill Shen Wanjun, regardless of their status or strength, would never escape two fates.
Or die.
Either surrender to the King of Jin and become a hawk in the palace.
Therefore, Shen Liang watched the servant gasping for air very calmly. After he could talk normally, he asked casually:
"Tell me, what's wrong?"
The servant looked at Shen Liang with complicated eyes.
"Your Highness, do you know what day it will be in three days?"
Shen Liang thought for a while, and an idea flashed in his mind.
"Oh, yes, I will hold a crowning ceremony in three days."
During the Great Yan Dynasty, when a boy was crowned at the age of eighteen, having a crowning ceremony meant that a boy became a man.
The servant swallowed and asked again:
"Then you should also know that the day before the crowning ceremony is held, there will be a crowning test, right?"
Shen Liang nodded disapprovingly.
"So what? It's just riding a horse and shooting arrows, just a formality."
The servant looked deeply at Shen Liang.
The eyes are no longer complicated, but full of sympathy.
Sensing the coldness that something was wrong, his heart couldn't help but beat up.
"If you fart, let it go immediately, otherwise I will send you to the palace to be a eunuch!"
The servant who still wanted to save a few years of money to find a wife was afraid and said bluntly:
"I...I heard that the prince plans to let you go to Tianlang Village to fight alone and eliminate more than a hundred bandits in the village!"
When Shen Liang heard this, he was stunned on the spot.
The servants served carefully.
After a while, without much reaction, Shen Liang turned around, lit a new torch at the entrance of the cave, and went back into the cave again.
The servant looked at his back and shouted as he disappeared into the cave entrance.
"Your Highness! If you don't go to the prince to intercede, the notice will be posted!"
A dull and dull response came from inside.
"Leave me alone! I want to be quiet!"
The servant tilted his head, looking confused.
"Want to be quiet? Your Highness has a sweetheart?"
