He clenched his fists, feeling the warmth everywhere in his body, and Liu Che's eyes became hot.
This spirit fruit is completely different from what I ate before.
The spiritual fruit I took before was not much different from ordinary tonics.
Although it is indeed a bit magical, after eating it, I don't feel as warm as I did today!
Liu Che even vaguely felt that he was being congested somewhere, which was a sign of sufficient blood and energy!
If a spiritual fruit is like this, what should it feel like for an immortal who casually gives spiritual fruit to others?
Liu Che couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
He never wanted to experience the feeling of lying on a hospital bed, helpless, again in his life.
Death has never been so close to him like this time!
I drink decoction every day like drinking water, but my body is still visibly sluggish.
A blocked nose, a cough that gets stronger every night, and a forehead that hurts every time I catch the wind!
What frightened Liu Che the most was the bloody sputum he kept coughing up when he coughed.
Everything seemed to tell Liu Che that he was going to die soon!
Before this time, he was still laughing at those emperors who sought immortality?
How cowardly can he be to place his hopes on the elusive eternal life?
But when Liu Che himself actually walked through the gate of hell, he also experienced the feeling of powerlessness!
He didn't want to die, he didn't want to experience that kind of horror again!
Liu Che's eyes gradually became sharp.
He must find an immortal and ask the immortal to protect him forever and ensure that he is free from illness and disaster throughout his life!
Liu Che thinks this is not difficult.
Others cannot achieve immortality simply because they have never seen an immortal.
But now, the Immortal is very close at hand, right in front of his eyes, as if he can get the Immortal's reward just by stretching out his hand!
Those people have been searching for immortals for countless years, but they haven't even seen the face of an immortal, but what about him?
Although Liu Che also did not meet the real immortal, he personally ate the spiritual fruit rewarded by the immortal! There’s more than one!
Compared with those people, Liu Che was naturally much ahead of them.
He is so close to the immortal, how could he still not find the immortal!
This is the truest thought in Liu Che's heart right now.
However, he didn't show it. Liu Che was very good at hiding his inner feelings!
"Thanks to General Wei, I got through this difficult time!"
Liu Che smiled and said, "What reward do you want?"
"This is what a general should do. I don't dare ask for any reward!"
Liu Che shook his head slightly: "What are you talking about? You know, I always distinguish rewards and punishments!"
"Originally, I planned to grant a Guannei Marquis, but now it seems that just one Guannei Marquis is not enough."
"Originally, your military exploits were enough to make me a Marquis of Guan Nei, but now that you have saved my life, it seems that being a Marquis of Guan Nei is far from enough."
Liu Che stroked his chin: "If that's the case, how about I grant you a rank of honorary rank?"
Wei Qing knelt down quickly: "Don't dare, don't dare, absolutely don't dare, I don't dare to take the credit of Mo's subordinates!"
In the Qin and Han dynasties, people with meritorious deeds were divided into twenty levels, among which the highest level was Liehou.
It was previously named Chehou, but during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to avoid the taboo of Liu Che's name, it was changed to Liehou.
Liehou was basically equivalent to the status of a prince, and could even levy fiefdom tax and establish a country as a county.
This is the highest level of reward that an ordinary person can receive!
"You are loyal to the people under your command." Liu Che said calmly.
After all, he actually didn't want to give Wei Qing the title of rank.
He is now on a waiting list. If he makes further contributions in the future, how should he reward him?
This is the so-called great power that shocks the master.
When the time comes, there will be no reward, and I'm afraid Wei Qing will have no choice but to die!
Wei Qing obviously understood this truth, so he did not agree to the reward and planned to share the credit with his lieutenants.
"In that case, let Chen..."
"Chen Rui." Wei Qing reminded.
"Yes, Chen Rui, let Chen Rui come to Chang'an City to receive the reward." Liu Che said calmly.
"This..." Wei Qing hesitated for a moment: "Your Majesty, the border war is tense. If Vice General Chen is also transferred back, I'm afraid..."
"Why, he has made such a great contribution, isn't it worth letting me see him with my own eyes?" Liu Che seemed a little unhappy.
Wei Qing didn't know what he had done wrong, but he felt that His Majesty's attitude towards him was not very friendly.
He did nothing wrong, except for Liu Che's disgusting jealousy!
Liu Che felt that he, a ninety-five-year-old supreme being, could not see the immortals, so why could he, a little general, see the immortals again and again?
The immortal was actually willing to reward spiritual fruits to a group of big-headed soldiers and country folk, but he was not willing to come and see him?
That's right, it's not that Liu Che doesn't want to see Wei Qing, he is just jealous of Wei Qing and jealous that he can get the favor of the immortal!
It's clear that I want to live forever, but I can't ask for immortality. Why!
Driven by jealousy and dissatisfaction with Wei Qing just now, Liu Che naturally had no good feelings toward Wei Qing.
Of course he knew that he was suspicious of Wei Qing, so he gave half of the spirit fruit to him to see if there was anything wrong with the spirit fruit.
Liu Che also knew that everything Wei Qing said was true and that there was only single-minded loyalty. It was because he was too paranoid and unwilling to eat the spiritual fruit directly.
But so what? He just felt unhappy and didn't want to look good to Wei Qing.
It would be fine if he had a reason to have an attack, but he didn't even have the slightest reason to have an attack, which made him extremely dissatisfied and unwilling to even give Wei Qing a good look.
Wei Qing naturally didn't know what Liu Che was thinking, but he keenly realized that it was time for him to leave.
After bowing and retiring, Wei Qing walked out of Liu Che's palace.
When Wei Qing walked out of the door, he saw Eunuch Li with a smile on his face.
But Wei Qing was in no mood to chat with Eunuch Li at this time. After thanking him briefly, he left Liu Che's palace in despair.
Looking at Wei Qing's back, Eunuch Li murmured in his heart.
He heard His Majesty laughing outside just now. He thought that Wei Qing's goal had been achieved, but he didn't know why he looked so lost.
…
Liu Che still kept his promise, and soon Wei Qing drove the Marquis of Guannei crazy.
But he turned a blind eye to the war from then on.
Anyway, didn’t you all say Xu Xu Tu Zhi before? Then leave it alone and forget about it.
Now Liu Che is determined to find the immortal and follow the traces of the immortal.
Therefore, when Chen Rui returned to Chang'an City, he almost never left the palace.
Liu Che pulled him and told him over and over again how he met the immortal and what miracles he had seen from the immortal.
He never tired of hearing these stories, and even asked someone to draw a portrait of an immortal based on Chen Rui's description and hang it in his palace.
Liu Che burns incense and prays every day, just to see the immortal!
If it hadn't been for the strong persuasion of the ministers in the DPRK, Liu Che would have wanted to mobilize all the troops at the border to search for traces of the immortal.
But considering the consequences of doing so, Liu Che finally let it go.
However, Liu Che did not give up pursuing the immortal.
Since the last time the Immortal appeared was at the border, let everyone at the border check out the Immortal's presence, and if anything is discovered, come back and report it directly to Liu Che!
It is more than a thousand miles from the border to Chang'an City, and how much manpower and material resources are spent on each trip?
Just the various specious stories and information coming back from the border every day consumed a lot of materials.
The supplies at the border are starting to become a little stretched!
The original harassment plan has also come to nothing. Everyone is looking for the immortal. Who still wants to fight?
Once it is confirmed that it is true, it can directly seal Wanhuhou!
Under such circumstances, who would still want to fight? Isn't it much faster to find an immortal than to fight for promotion?
What works well from above will be followed by others below. Under Liu Che's extreme desire for immortals, in just ten days, the atmosphere of the entire Han Dynasty suddenly changed.
Even the pedestrians on the roadside talked about all kinds of myths, legends and ghost stories.
The entire Han Dynasty entered a wave of fanaticism looking for immortals.
Finding an immortal, even just a glimpse of it from a distance, is enough for a person to live a lifetime of food and clothing. In this case, who is willing to work honestly?
During this period, loyal people naturally understood that this was not going to work and sooner or later it would bring disaster to the country and the people. But the problem was that no one could persuade Liu Che.
Liu Che was always labeled as "you want me to die early". When he was told that he was tired, he even demoted the people who danced the most happily.
If it hadn't been for the persuasion of others, I'm afraid they would have died on the spot!
However, everything that happened in the Han Dynasty had nothing to do with Qin Tian.
He has already arrived on the prairie in the far north. If he were to look for him among the big men, he might not be able to find any trace of him for another ten years.
…
"It's such a cold day, are you freezing outside?" The herdsman looked at Qin Tian distressedly and handed him the leather coat in his hand.
After taking it, Qin Tiancai discovered that it was a thick leather coat sewn from sheepskin.
Although the family of this herdsman seems to be relatively wealthy, the price of leather clothes of such good quality is obviously very expensive. Their willingness to give the clothes to Qin Tian for warmth is enough to show their simplicity.
When Qin Tian met this family of herdsmen, heavy snow had already fallen on the grassland.
But in just half a quarter of an hour, the earth was covered in silver, and everything as far as the eye could see was white, dazzling white.
In this weather, even the nights are no longer dark.
The white snow will reflect all light. Even late at night, you can still see everything clearly in the snowy sky.
It is precisely because the white snow will reflect all light, staying in the snow for a long time, especially during the day, will cause snow blindness.
In this kind of weather, most herdsmen will not leave Qionglu unless necessary.
Qionglu is very similar to the yurt known to later generations, and its main support is built with wooden structure.
For example, the wall frames, skylights, rafters and doors are not all made of wood, but the roof of the dome is arched and the tent is made of felt.
The biggest advantage of this type of dome, which is mainly supported by a wooden structure, is that it is easy to disassemble and build, and is easy to move.
Because they have to drive cattle and sheep to live in the water.
And those felts made of fur have good warmth retention properties.
It snows heavily in winter, and herdsmen generally don't choose to go out unless they have to.
In addition to snow blindness, extremely low temperatures are another enemy they need to avoid.
No one would be wandering outside in this weather.
Therefore, when the herdsmen first saw Qin Tian, they thought that Qin Tian was an enemy.
But seeing that he was so thinly dressed and without any weapons, the herdsmen quickly let down their vigilance.
Qin Tian looked so thin and frail that it was obvious that he could not be any enemy or a soldier.
There is no future for such people in the army. They are afraid that they will be shot dead by stray arrows on the first day on the battlefield.
They thought Qin Tian was just a lost traveler, so they warmly welcomed Qin Tian into the Qionglu to keep warm.
Of course, they certainly have the necessary vigilance, but this does not affect their help to Qin Tian.
When we arrived at the Qionglu, we put on the clothes given by the herdsmen, and the herdsmen enthusiastically handed over dried meat and mare milk.
"It's a cold day, you will definitely feel comfortable if you eat some meat and drink some kumis!" The herdsman greeted Qin Tian warmly.
The language of the Huns is an early Turkic language, which is very different from the Mandarin of the Han Dynasty.
If an ordinary soldier came to this place, he would definitely be confused.
But Qin Tian could easily communicate with the herdsmen by just casting a few spells.
"Thank you for your kindness." Qin Tian was not polite and ended up eating the meat and kumiss.
"It's such a cold day, if I hadn't met you, I would have..." Qin Tian paused, then gently bit the dried meat in his hand.
Hearing Qin Tian speak, the herdsmen's little remaining vigilance gradually dissipated.
Since you can speak their language, even if you are not one of their people, you are not necessarily an enemy.
If Qin Tian couldn't understand what they were saying, or even spoke fluent Chinese Mandarin, they wouldn't rush in and kill the young man, but they definitely wouldn't be so enthusiastic.
"Who says it's not the case?" The strong man laughed and said, "You didn't say anything when we called you at first. We thought the child was stupid because of the cold!"
The food on the grassland is just like the people on the grassland, with a sense of roughness and boldness.
The production methods of kumis and dried meat are very primitive. Not to mention delicious, they can only be said to be barely swallowable.
After all, there are no various spices for civilians to use in this era.
Whether it’s dried meat or something else, it always carries the original taste of food.
There was also a hint of blood in the smell.
However, Qin Tian didn't hate this taste. After the initial adaptation, these foods from the grassland tasted quite different.
He just came to visit the grasslands and had no intention of interacting with the grassland people.
Of course Qin Tian knew that people with a Central Plains appearance like his were not very popular on the grasslands, and he was afraid that he would be yelled at and killed if he met anyone.
Originally, he planned to turn around and leave, but he didn't expect that when the herdsman lady saw him walking alone in the snow, she actually stepped forward and pulled him into the house.
This herdsman is really simple and cute.
Since he had the opportunity, Qin Tian did not refuse to learn about the lives of the herdsmen in this grassland.
This was a feeling he had never seen or experienced before.
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere seemed to be getting more and more lively, but Qin Tian suddenly asked: "Could it be that you..."
