January 6, Xiaohan.
It is advisable to consecrate and avoid burial.
The silver plate hangs high, and the birds sing at night.
The forest land is pale and hazy, with a low mountain protruding from the tranquility. Strange rocks accompany a solitary tree with thin leaves.
Under the moonlight, thin smoke surrounds the strange rocks. A young man is sitting cross-legged on the bed. The coarse linen clothes are stained with blood, and a strong and powerful body is exposed between the holes. The night breeze lifts the hair on his forehead, revealing a masculine and tough face with a high nose and thin body. The lips, the sharp eyebrows fly into the temples diagonally, and the heroic spirit is compelling.
At the moment, he closed his eyes tightly, motionless as a pine tree, breathing out energy. Every once in a while, a slight flow of air would escape from his mouth and nose, causing the dead branches and leaves behind him to sway slightly and rustle. ring.
As a wisp of leaves fell, Xiang Ji slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were very bright, with the energy of a young man. In the moonlight, his mind sank into the depths of his mind, and a huge purple light scroll suddenly appeared.
Wow! The galaxy rolls around, with a vast glow, and one hundred and eight gorgeous stars rise and fall on the scroll, each occupying one side. Under the starlight, the words recorded on the scroll gradually become clearer, and what comes into view are three big characters: Yi Fate chart!
Immediately following is Xiang Ji’s face and facial features and a series of the most basic life palace information:
Lord of the zodiac: Xiang Ji, named Shanhe.
Fate: Excellent black fate, many misfortune, evil star (black, green, red, yellow, purple and white, lower, middle and upper three times six colors).
Fate Star: An ordinary lone star (one of thousands of dust particles, without any characteristics).
Root bone: the appearance of a middle-aged person.
Change of fate the day after tomorrow: None.
Martial Arts and Sequence: Beginner martial artists can advance to the upper level - Kui Mulang Sequence·Ten-step martial arts (the ceremony has not been completed).
Path and Fruit Star Chart: None.
Martial arts moves: basic sword skills, basic fists and kicks.
Longevity: three days.
Combat strength: A warrior with twice the energy and blood of an ordinary person/the power of one horse.
"I avoided pursuit and awakened the life-changing map, but I only have three days of longevity left."
Xiang Ji sighed slightly. Although he had obtained this mysterious scroll, his situation had not improved and he was still facing two difficulties.
Not only did he only have three days left to live, but he was also inexplicably labeled as the "descendant of the overlord" and was being hunted. It really fulfilled what the black destiny said, and he was destined to have a terrible fate.
All of this is due to the recent rumors in the world, saying: Emperor Ling caused troubles in the party, and sold off officials and titles, Shi Chang served in troubles and chaos, the Han dynasty was about to lose its strength, and the battle of Wujiang in the past was shocking and thunder struck from the sky. Tu Zhenlong' will appear again, overthrow the Liu family, and the world will change its hands.
You must know that the sword move that the Overlord of Western Chu struck with thunder and killed the real dragon that day not only caused hidden wounds to Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, but also truly affected the fate of the country in the Western Han Dynasty. There was a desperate situation of decline and near-annihilation. Luck, if Emperor Guangwu establishes the Eastern Han Dynasty again, it's hard to say that he will really be short of luck.
Such remarks swept across the territory with the help of secret forces, and the Liu family had to take it seriously. Although it did not alarm the capital, some local forces also responded and sent troops to search and explore. The Orion family took action.
Except for the three lineages who were awarded the surname Liu by the Han Dynasty, this ordinary family was recognized as a descendant of the Overlord just because of their surname Xiang. There was only a fifteen-year-old Xiang Ji in the family. His relatives had already died when he was ten. One man foraged wild fruits, practiced martial arts and hunted and grew up to this day.
Facing the soldiers under Tao Hou, he drank in hatred and fell under the knife, but there was a glimmer of hope. After his death, the family heirloom jade pendant shined, attracting another soul to enter the body, and they were perfectly combined. It is Xiang Ji who came from time to time. They have the same name and surname, and even their looks are the same. However, their experiences are different from the times they live in. They are parallel individuals.
Along with the time travel, there was also the 'Changing Picture' that he found in his mind from the antique market. A bright light erupted to repel the sluggish soldier, and led him to escape far away.
It's a pity that this body was killed and his life span was exhausted. It was only after Yi Mingtu was revived that he gained three more days of life. His blood doubled and he barely survived. If he wanted to extend his life, there were only three ways left: first, martial arts. To achieve a breakthrough in cultivation, strive for the promotion ceremony of the magical sequence; secondly, to devour heavenly materials and earthly treasures to nourish oneself; thirdly, to obtain divine weapons to recognize one's master and feed him back, none of which is easy.
"Basic martial arts practice is widely spread all over the world, but the real sequence of magical powers is firmly controlled and monopolized by the government and aristocratic sects. If I want to be promoted, it will be even more difficult."
After sorting out his thoughts, Xiang Ji had already adapted to the fact that he had traveled through the Han Dynasty and the martial arts era in half a day. His body and soul were perfectly integrated. They were like one person. The martial arts and methods he had practiced in the past came to mind, and they were all at his fingertips, just like himself. It seems like ten years of hard training.
In the blessed mind, he put on airs, his arms moved slowly with the steps, full of qi and blood, and the skin was tough. He stretched his arms like a bow string and was full of strength. He constantly adjusted the force of every inch of his muscles and bones, and the whole body's strength was twisted into one, The movement is not fast, it can even be said to be slow, but the opening and closing of the boxing frame is unusually deep, and a sense of power arises spontaneously wherever the fist passes.
"The basic martial arts under the supernatural power sequence pays attention to the strength of the muscles and bones. The original body has been practicing for ten years and is the entry point. Internal strength is generated by itself. Most of the soldiers are of this level, but this is only the most common. I have a destiny to nourish With strong blood, one can fight against two, but not against five. The only way is to retreat while fighting and look for good opportunities."
Xiang Ji knew what was going on. There were dangers now, and finding a place to settle down was the key. As for the martial arts and supernatural powers, he had been trapped in the mountains and forests for a long time, and it was impossible to know how the world was progressing.
He has limited knowledge of this world. It seems to be a parallel world in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, mixed with elements of the legend of the emperor, magical weapons, and mysteries, and merged into such an imaginary historical dynasty. Except for some customs, items, food, and clothes, Except that the materials are different from the official history, the general context is still similar, and there are many three-character names, so it is not as affected as the official history.
The personal strength of the warriors has increased rapidly. All high-ranking officials and generals are masters, not to mention real emperors. With the dragon energy in their bodies, they are even more invincible. They have been among the top ten figures in the world in all dynasties, but they are also trapped in this, and they are incompatible with everyone. The heads of the aristocratic families play a game of checks and balances, and the dragon's energy backfires and the longevity never reaches the age of eighty-one, and very few even live past the age of fifty, unable to extend their lifespan like other people.
Although martial arts are strong, they cannot live forever!
Everyone in the world wants to live forever, but only the magical sequence handed down from ancient times can achieve this. There are nine fields, four elephants and twenty-eight constellations in the sky. Each constellation has a star king and a destiny star. It is also a complete evolutionary sequence. The martial arts introduction to body training After practicing your strength and stepping into the five heavenly gates, you only need to complete the ritual step by step to gain the corresponding authority and strength and change your own destiny.
It's just that these sequences are firmly controlled and monopolized by the imperial court, aristocratic families and sects. Ordinary people can only practice the basic martial arts created and spread by the 'First Emperor' during his martial arts to strengthen the body and strengthen the muscles and bones; but no matter how strong you are without the opportunity, you can't. It may rise, but it cannot shake the rule of the upper class, and it has completely become the rule of the upper and lower classes.
In the past, the battle of Wujiang became the strongest battle in modern times. It blasted through higher-order barriers and almost completed the dragon-slaying ceremony. That is to say, after that battle, the dragon's energy was damaged, and the environment of heaven and earth changed. With the decline, shackles gradually appeared.
Not only is the lifespan of living beings greatly reduced, but as time goes by, it becomes increasingly difficult to advance in martial arts. For hundreds of years to this day, even the martial arts masters at Wutian Pass can conquer a region, and the one who benefited the most became the emperor. This caused The power is getting bigger and bigger, and only a handful of aristocratic families can check and balance it.
"Although I have three days to live, if I can't withstand today's test, I won't even have one day."
After a moment, Xiang Ji focused his gaze and looked at the mountainous area in the distance. Fine gravel was shaking and smoke and dust were flying.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the whole mountain trembled. Human figures were vaguely visible, swords flashed, and soldiers appeared in groups among the galloping horses. Smoke and dust rushed into the night sky, like an earth dragon turning over. There was a lingering sound, and the ancient tree not far away finally finally He was knocked down by the airflow, causing a cloud of smoke and dust.
The moon was sparse, Xiang Ji stood up, and then leaped across the sky like an eagle spreading its wings. He walked away from this place with a wrong step, avoiding the dusty direction, and came to an open space.
He knew that when the pursuers came, the mountains were just that big after all, and soldiers were rampant. No matter how strange paths or mountain roads blocked the way, they were found and fell into a crisis.
At the same time, star lines filled the sky emerged from the life-changing diagram in his mind. Sixty-four hexagrams overlapped and overlapped, and actually turned into one middle-upper hexagram in response to the situation:
Lowering the ridge and rising higher means that the water in the lake is trapped. Xiang said: "It's sad that the fortune is not coming." He pushed it up to lift the ladder, but he couldn't get a tube of insect wings. He turned it up and couldn't get down.
"Trapped hexagram? Difficulties seek solutions,"
Xiang Ji's heart moved. Can this be calculated when it involves a major personal matter? Dui represents yin, which represents a lake that represents joy; ridge represents yang, which represents water, which represents danger. If you are trapped in water and trapped in a difficult situation, it is difficult to use your talents, but if you still stick to the right path and enjoy yourself, you will be able to achieve success and get out of the predicament.
The annotations to the hexagrams also poured into his mind as information and choices:
[Ying Gua: Stay and face the soldiers head-on, fighting to the death and not retreating. When the common man is angry, blood will be splashed five steps away!
Ji - Seeking life in death, fighting against opportunities; the sky is the limit, there is a glimmer of hope.
Fierce - Entering into a dangerous situation and narrowly escaping from death; it may range from being seriously injured and captured, to death at the worst.
Breaking through the hexagram, one can recognize the secret of heaven, the black grade, and stargazing. 】
[Reverse hexagram: The green mountains will not change and the water will flow forever. Avoid the soldiers and hide to survive. The destiny of heaven and earth is the greatest.
Ji - retreat when faced with difficulties, temporarily avoid the sharp edge, and have a peaceful night.
Ominous - Expedient measures have to be postponed, and danger will appear again tomorrow.
Breaking through the hexagram, one can recognize a hint of heaven, black grade, and wandering. 】
"This is... the hexagram determines good and bad luck, and goes forward and backward. What is the secret after breaking the hexagram? The results of the two routes are completely different?"
Xiang Ji was a little surprised, but he also noticed something keenly. After this hexagram appeared, his life span was directly reduced from three days to two days!
This fortune-telling costs lives.
His eyes darkened slightly. Xiang Ji, who only had two days to live, naturally knew how to choose. The so-called avoidance and not fighting seemed to be able to escape danger. Surviving a few more days was actually meaningless, because the longer the time, the more pursuers. What's more, there are only two days left to live, so this is not a good choice. The other option seems dangerous, but it shows that there is a glimmer of hope and opportunity. There are only two days left, so why hesitate?
Survive in death, a glimmer of hope!
He held the hunting knife tightly, his heart beat rapidly involuntarily, and his blood flowed faster. A mixture of tension, excitement, and hesitation made his body tremble slightly. Every inch of his body was filled with internal energy, like thunder from the sky. The fire is about to break out.
Without words or shouts, the group of soldiers came straight towards Xiang Ji, holding torches and carrying sharp blades, their cold light flashing.
Woo hoo hoo... The wild beasts in the surrounding mountains and forests are all alarmed, uneasy, and trembling. Even if tigers roared in the forest in the past, and now they see black shadows rushing toward them, they are all terrified.
bass! The sound of the horse's hooves gradually subsided, Xiang Ji jumped up, his eyes flashed with cold lightning, he opened his mouth and let out a light scream. The hunting knife behind him was turned upside down and held in his hand. The white blade brought a cold light, and the strong wind from all directions rushed away like the waves of a river. Go straight towards the oncoming soldiers.
The sword moves dexterously, the sword is heavy and fierce, but the clumsiness returns to its original form. One sword is enough! He raised his arm in the air and raised his sword to the sky. The simplest and most straightforward sword, without any fancy, was struck down by Ling Ren!
This sword move is the most basic sword move to split the Huashan Mountain. However, under the great improvement of Xiang Ji's physical strength, it also has a bit of skillful and unworkable charm, which makes the galloping armored soldiers... Startled, he quickly drew the knife and tilted it, without any mercy. The standard ring knife cut with a dazzling cold light, biting the bones. With a sonorous sound, he held the hunting knife, but his arms couldn't stop sinking. Obviously it was extremely difficult to parry.
"Damn it, could this kid have eaten the guts of a tiger in the past ten days? His strength has doubled compared to that day!" The soldier's heart moved secretly. Seeing that he couldn't get any advantage, he immediately clamped his legs between the horse's belly and was shocked. The beast under his crotch suddenly slammed forward with great force.
Seeing this, Xiang Ji retracted his sword and performed a "rabbit kick" by curling up his waist and abdomen. He bent and straightened his feet and kicked straight on the soldier's arm. This was like a blow from a bow. It was obvious that the force was so powerful that even the soldier's side-arm block was at a disadvantage. His body suddenly swayed backwards and fell, and the sword fell to the ground. He also fell off his horse and rolled in front of his companions at the rear, making a fool of himself.
"Ahem, be careful. There's something wrong with this kid. His strength has doubled out of thin air. He can probably handle two entry-level warriors." The armored man coughed a few times, and without caring about his disgrace, he directly warned, and the remaining four people flew around to surround him. Come, I feel a little more wary.
"Okay, very good. Now we can better say that you are a descendant of the Overlord of Western Chu. Killing and dying without any evidence is a great achievement, and your unknown life-saving thing is also ours."
Zheng! The ring-shou sword was unsheathed, like a bolt of lightning in the night sky. The soldier captain's eyes flashed fiercely, and the snow-white sword in his hand was cold, and the air-conditioning was overwhelming.
"Don't you still know what I am? I am killing innocent people for profit, and I am still here acting coquettishly! Are these the pigs and dogs that Taohou's subordinates raise?"
Xiang Ji glanced at the hunting knife that had been split into cracks, and without hesitation picked up the ring knife that the soldier had thrown away. This kind of sword was not comparable to the thick iron made by the villagers in the mountains. Later, his consciousness has been in tune with this body. Although there is no exquisite method to speak of, it can still make a rough knife in his hand more courageous.
"Sweep thousands of armies!" The soldier captain's eyes flashed and he shouted, causing Xiang Ji's heart to move. Naturally, he retracted his sword and slashed horizontally, intending to intercept the slashing sword. However, in the blink of an eye, he had a look of confusion on his face. , just because the soldier who took action sneered, and pulled the iron sword in his hand fiercely, like a stream falling down, it actually split Xiang Ji's sword with a vertical slash, and a gap suddenly opened from his shoulder, burning. The pain mixed with large amounts of blood burst out at the same time, forcing Xiang Ji to pull away and retreat, secretly thinking that something was wrong.
What is this that is sweeping thousands of armies? It is clearly splitting Huashan with force!
After all, the warrior is an old man. He can control many warriors with just a shout. If you don't pay attention, you will really suffer a big loss!
"You don't talk about martial arts." Xiang Ji gained wisdom and learned a move in his mind. Although they are all martial arts practitioners who have just glimpsed the door and developed "internal strength", they can be regarded as martial artists. Muscles and bones, but skills, scheming, reactions, etc. are also important factors. It is difficult for a young bird like him to compare with soldiers, not to mention that they still have the advantage of numbers.
"Humph, you ignorant boy, when we are fighting on the battlefield, who cares what you shout? If I say it means sweeping an army, it means sweeping an army. Who said that this move requires a horizontal killing?" the captain of the soldier sneered. , approaching with a knife, and several people around him dismounted and surrounded him. Although they didn't bother to take action, they would not allow variables to occur.
A ten-mile radius has been trapped by their other brothers. Five of their best qinggong people formed a team to arrest him. The remaining hundred people dispersed into small teams to patrol and search. It was a great achievement for them to bump into him.
"I came here in a daze, but I don't want to stay in a daze again. No one can take my life away!"
Caught in a critical situation, Xiang Ji couldn't help but be aroused a bit of hostility and anger. Why should he be the one who wanted to die? Why do we have to suffer these misfortunes out of nowhere? Why should we be hunted down just because we have the same surname? Why should I be manipulated?
There is injustice in my heart, and my strength keeps ringing along the knife, and the blade seems to be a little cold star showing, I don't feel happy if I don't spit it out!
"Hey! Ant people, the value of existence is to be used by others. It is your honor to be able to complete Lord Taohou's plan before you die, and to attract attention as a descendant of the Overlord." The four soldiers said coldly, without saying much. They all drew their swords and struck at him, from above and below, from all directions, including the throat, chest, abdomen, vagina and forehead, all were locked, trying to kill him with one sword!
clank!
The swords clashed, and the sound of gold and iron trembled harshly, adding a bit of desolation and desolation to the night.
Five figures intertwined one after another, and the rabbits were separated from each other. Xiang Ji was full of blood, but his fists were hard to beat with four hands. It was rare to be able to stand upright under the encirclement and suppression of four soldiers. How could he compare with the coarse linen clothes? Get black iron armor?
After a hard fight, the four soldiers only had some white marks on their bodies, fist marks and foot stains, and even their wrists were tightly protected. On the other hand, Xiang Ji's clothes were already in pieces, and his body was covered with sword marks. The wounds on his hands and feet were bleeding, and the injuries were severe. The convenience of armor was extremely outstanding when their strength was similar.
This is also the difference between regular military force and rogue bandits. With one armor in hand, it is not a problem to defeat several people. Suppressing the riot is like turning over the table with your eyes closed.
"Be careful of that glowing thing causing mischief. The information provided by Taohou's lineage does not include such a thing. Maybe this man from the mountains really has some background. Let's cripple his limbs first." The four soldiers exchanged for a while, and even the one who was kicked off his horse earlier The man also stood up and came closer, leaving Xiang Ji with nowhere to escape.
Holding the handle of the knife tightly, a trace of madness of survival instinct flashed in Xiang Ji's eyes. Originally, he only had two days left to live, and now it is even more difficult to guarantee a day. Whoever wants his life, then he will take his life. It is fair. of trading.
Boom!
Just when the situation was critical, a loud noise roared from far to near, and the violent air waves rushed towards us like a materialized ocean tide. In an instant, six people were beaten to pieces. Amidst the screams, Flesh and blood were torn apart, and the sound of broken bones could be heard clearly.
Xiang Ji felt a sharp pain, and his body, which was originally covered with sword marks, was torn apart. A series of blood lines fell, and the white bones stubble protruded, making his face pale, but he could see clearly the reality of the distant vision. What happened was that a five-clawed golden dragon soared into the sky!
hold head high!
Suddenly, a dragon's roar sounded, without any warning, from the distant east.
"That's it, dragon!"
At this moment, all the people in the thirteen states in the entire Han territory saw such an astonishing scene.
Far away in the east, there is a dragon!
The dragon scales are bigger than a house, the dragon's horns are majestic, and the five claws are sharp, piercing the vacuum. This is a real dragon with golden light, as bright as the sky. The pair of dragon eyes condensed with light seem to be able to absorb all the black and yellow colors of the heaven and earth, and the universe. In the prehistoric days, the bright moon in the nine days was eclipsed in front of these two dragons.
Accompanying the five-clawed golden dragon, twenty-eight golden air masses appeared. As if being stimulated by something, they rushed in all directions and flew to all parts of the Han Dynasty!
And if you look closely, you will see that there are three more black shadows appearing under the golden dragon, working together to tear the golden dragon apart! They are the culprits behind all these changes!
"Dragon? It actually echoes the entire mountains and rivers. Is it the legendary emperor's dragon energy?!" Xiang Ji was startled, but the life-changing diagram in his mind suddenly lit up, as if something had been triggered, making the scattered light groups One, changed trajectory.
At the same time, the five soldiers who surrounded him also widened their eyes and were shocked in their hearts. They were so distracted after seeing such a vision. In addition, they were blown to pieces by the strong wind and huge waves, and they couldn't care about Xiang Ji.
"That's... the direction of the imperial mausoleum in the capital!"
"What happened during the Dragon Qi riot in the imperial mausoleum? Aren't there the twenty-eight Yuntai generals who followed Emperor Guangwu in the past and are stationed there!"
"Wait a minute, look, there are dozens of light groups rushing out of the broken dragon energy!"
"No, one of them went after that boy!"
In an instant, the situation suddenly changed, and things took a huge turn. A ball of light roared in, shining past the scattered soldiers.
One of them suddenly landed here, heading straight for Xiang Ji!
The hexagram indicates auspicious omen: Survive in death, a glimmer of hope!
At the same time, the picture scroll that originally showed the hexagram of Ze Shui trapped suddenly changed again, and instantly turned into the hexagram of the lower stem and the upper stem.
Zetianjue·jue and able to make peace is called Shang Shang Gua!
Jue hexagram unifies the dry land, and the rising Qi of the river will turn into rain, which will nourish the earth and nourish all things. It is not difficult to get rid of five yang and one yin. Xiang said:
The spider took off its web and competed with the heavenly army, clinging to the wings and feathers of the bee. Fortunately, the strong wind broke the web, and it escaped the disaster and was at ease!
