The author of the book "The Book of the Dead"

Chapter 180: The Man of Destiny, the Imperial Ruler

The fire was raging, burning everything in the cave.

outside world.

The huge crowd rushed towards the elite soldiers.

"kill!!"

"Inverted!"

"Kill them!!"

The thin, pale-faced refugees rushed forward.

boom! !

It started to rain heavily.

The rain seemed to have a kind of magical power, secretly providing strength to the refugees.

The tall young man in the lead held a steel knife and charged into the army formation with great strength, making him invincible.

The leaders surrounded the young man, who was running out of energy and showing signs of not being able to hold on.

The outflow of martial arts led to the further spread of martial arts to the common people.

The young man had a very strong talent. After just three years of practice, he had entered the first-rate acquired realm and was one step away from the innate realm.

There were many talented generals among the surrounding generals who participated in the siege.

Killing in the rain, sword energy flying everywhere, murderous intent is everywhere.

The young man had more and more wounds on his body. The rain took away his blood and body temperature, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

There is a huge difference between the two.

After all, he is just a lone ranger, how can he compare with a professional warrior who has been fighting for years.

The young man half-knelt on the ground, supporting his body with his long sword, breathing heavily.

The generals approached with a grim smile and said, "Will it work? If you resist, you will die. If you don't resist, you will also die."

"Hateful, abominable..."

The young man only felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

This group of soldiers kept capturing people for blood sacrifice. The young man realized this and thought that it would be better to resist than to die, and even if he died, he would take someone with him.

Looking at the general getting closer and closer, the young man secretly locked on his target.

Wang Wang Wang!
At this time, the sound of dogs barking was heard not far away.

The black dog rushed over at lightning speed.

Like lightning, it flashes quickly in a circle.

Sharp claws tear open the enemy's throat.

The rain restored the young man's strength.

"die!!"

The young man suddenly attacked and killed people, and with a steel knife he cut through the siege, and joined forces with the black dog to kill the enemy.

"Thank you, Brother Dog." The young man clasped his fists in thanks, not daring to disrespect this magical black dog.

The black dog looked at him, walked away, walked a distance, and then turned around, as if asking him to follow.

The young man put away the steel knife. At this time, the rain stopped, taking away the bloody smell in the air.

The young man followed closely and came to the front of the cave where fire was glowing.

A young Taoist stood on a huge rock, the mountain breeze blowing the corners of his Taoist robe and his dragon-like hair fluttering on his temples.

He has a fairy-like demeanor and is mysterious and unpredictable.

This is the impression the young people have of this man.

The black dog ran to the Taoist priest and circled around him.

The young man immediately understood what was going on, stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for saving me!"

"No need to be polite."

Liang Yue took a look at the man.

This person has supernatural powers, similar to the bloodline of Kuafu, but the level is lower, at best it can be considered the bloodline of a giant spirit.

No wonder the fighting was so fierce.

Even stronger than the people of Li Family. The three-eyed bloodline of Li Family is strong, but the times are wrong, which leads to extremely strong sequelae. On the contrary, this person's weaker bloodline can be fully exerted.

Liang Yue glanced at the young man and asked, "Did you lead the people to eliminate the soldiers outside?"

"Yes, the arrogant and brave generals are cruel. We cannot bear it. Even if we die, we will drag them down with us."

Speaking of the troops of these military governors, the young man gritted his teeth and wished he could kill them as soon as possible.

The young man's family fell into poverty and he wandered here. Having loved to stand up for the weak since he was a child, he watched the people who wandered with him being slaughtered like pigs and dogs.

"What do you think of this world?" Liang Yue looked at this man with surprise. This boy should be literate and have good conversation skills.

"The rituals and music are in disarray, and the world is in chaos."

The young man missed the prosperous Tang Dynasty that the gentleman had mentioned, and really wanted to go back to that era, have more than ten acres of land and a small house in the countryside, and spend the rest of his life in peace.

Liang Yue turned and left, saying to the man, "Follow me."

The young man followed without thinking, he had nowhere else to go anyway, so he might as well follow his savior.

"May I ask your name, Senior?"

"Lingbao."

"My name is Zhao Hu, meeting Taoist Lingbao."

Zhao Hu was not a child of aristocratic family, but the son of an ordinary wealthy farmer. At that time, many literati lived in the countryside, and Zhao Hu learned poetry and books from them for several years.

After decades of chaos, the heritage was lost. Apart from the families and sects that have kept the heritage intact, few people know the origin of the name Lingbao.

From then on, Zhao Hu became Liang Yue's follower.

Follow Liang Yue to travel around the world.

Travel during the day and read at night.

Having seen the misery of the people along the way, Zhao Hu took action for justice and made a name for himself.

The night falls, and the stars appear.

Bonfires light up the forest.

Liang Yue sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and studied the bronze mountain.

Beside the campfire, Zhao Hu bent over, carrying a 500-jin boulder, squatting up and down, and making humming sounds.

After training his physical strength, he also practiced his sword skills, which made a lot of noise and startled a flock of birds.

Liang Yue woke up at this time, looked at Zhao Hu, and said: "You can't practice like this, you can't play to your strengths."

"Please give me some advice, senior!" Zhao Hu looked honest but smart. He immediately climbed up the pole and asked Liang Yue for guidance.

"I don't know martial arts."

"..." Zhao Hu didn't believe it. How could a dog be so strong? Who would dare to believe that he didn't know martial arts?
"I can teach you."

It's a good opportunity to study the mechanism of super powers. There will be a lot of people like this in the future, and this person may be able to end the troubled times.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!"

Next, in addition to studying, Zhao Hu also followed Liang Yue's guidance.

Bow to the waterfall, be drenched in water, and walk with heavy loads.

"rise!!"

Zhao Hu untied his belt, his body rose two feet taller, his blood and energy rushed three feet high, and he burst out with tremendous strength, uprooting a tree that could be hugged by a man, and dancing with great vigor.

Zhao Hu officially broke through to his innate state, his eyes were bloodshot and he was full of vigor and vitality.

"Senior Lingbao, I feel I can become even stronger and will definitely be able to defeat all warriors in the world!"

Liang Yue stroked the big dog and poured a basin of cold water on it. "It's not enough to defeat all the warriors in the world. How is that different from the warriors of today? In addition to martial arts, you must also learn to reason like a scholar and learn to gather talents."

"Master, you are so talented. I understand now."

Zhao Hu was convinced by Liang Yue. He had followed Taoist Lingbao for such a long time. Taoist Lingbao had unfathomable knowledge in his mind. This man must be a scholar who could help the world. Anyway, it would never be wrong to listen to him.

Afterwards, Zhao Hu intensified his study of classics.

Travel far and wide and challenge the masters.

Support the young and weak and attract talents.

"Go to Luoyang, I will return to Luoyang, those who are ambitious can go to Luoyang!" Zhao Hu said to the talents who wanted to follow him.

By the Yellow River.

Zhao Hu took off his coat and dived into the water. The Panlong stick in his hand stirred the waves, creating a three-meter-high wave.

"The future should belong to aliens."

Liang Yue stood by the water, thinking.

The era of warriors came to an end, replaced by the strange men of the earthly immortal era.

In the future, there may be extraordinary people who can call the wind and rain.

However, it seems extremely difficult for the alien to inherit the gene. Even if it is inherited, there may be the same sequelae as Li.

"Gods and demons may appear again, but the appearance of aliens is not a bad thing."

Liang Yue looked at Zhao Hu and decided to support Zhao Hu and let Zhao Hu conquer the world according to his own ideas.

There must be a safe order in the world. This is the bottom line for the existence of the corpse-reincarnating immortals.

Those who agree with Zhao Hu's ideas and have good character can be incorporated into the Baiyun Imperial City and left for future generations to revive.

"No matter what, the era of warriors will eventually end."

Liang Yue no longer needs martial arts to sustain his life, so it doesn’t matter whether he develops or not.

The spread of martial arts will be controlled by the government in the future, and only a few permitted sects will be able to teach in specific mountains.

The risks of universal martial arts are no less than those of universal gun ownership in the modern world.

In the future, the popularization of martial arts will at most have the function of maintaining health.

This is the concept that Liang Yue wants to impart.

Wow! !

As he was speaking, Zhao Hu jumped over a distance of five meters and landed steadily next to Liang Yue.

"Master, I have mastered the nameless technique to perfection!"

Zhao Hu said.

"Don't be lazy in the future, especially focus on cultivating your mind, don't just focus on external skills."

"Yes!"

This unnamed martial art is inclusive and tolerant of all things. The more you come into contact with it, the more profound and mysterious it seems.

Even after mastering it, Zhao Hu still felt that this technique still needed to be studied.

Taoist Lingbao must have mastered this technique to perfection.

This martial art is actually a modified version of the Ten Complete Martial Arts, but Zhao Hu guessed wrong, as Liang Yue in this world does not know martial arts.

In response, Liang Yue smiled but said nothing.

Zhao Hu circulated his internal energy, and his blood and qi evaporated into water droplets.

The two walked along the Yellow River.

Zhao Hu suddenly asked, "Master, what is the name of this technique?"

"Nameless, you take it for yourself."

The river was roaring, and Zhao Hu's tough face fell into deep thought. After a long while, he said, "This achievement is called... the Imperial Classics Book."

After a year of living with Lingbao, Zhao Hu has benefited a lot. He has shed his rusticity and started to think in deeper aspects.

He was determined to change the chaotic world, help the world, unify the country, and end the era of military men ruling the country.

"Good name."

The two walked along the river and saw a ferry dock in the distance.

Liang Yue stopped and said, "All good things must come to an end. Zhao Hu, we say goodbye here."

"Master Lingbao, where can I find you in the future?" Zhao Hu was caught off guard and looked stunned.

"See you later if we are lucky."

Liang Yue took off the Yitian sword from his waist and handed it to Zhao Hu.

"This is the Heavenly Sword, which belonged to Liu Yu, the Emperor Wu of Song, the overlord of Jiangzuo. This sword is given to heroes, and I hope you can realize your ambitions soon."

"The Heaven Sword?" Zhao Hu waved his hands and said, "It's too valuable. I can't take it. Besides, I use a stick. I can't waste such a treasure."

"The long stick rules the world, and the sword rules the country. Both are indispensable."

At Liang Yue's insistence, Zhao Hu finally accepted the sword.

"The nickname Zhao Hu is not domineering enough. Let's call him Zhao Kuangyin from now on." Liang Yue smiled with evil humor.

The real Zhao Kuangyin probably hadn't been born yet.

There is no history, let alone destiny. Create your own destiny and history.

He is Heaven, and the people He chooses are Destiny.

"Thank you, Taoist priest!" Zhao Kuangyin looked up.

Liang Yue has turned around.

"Master, if we eliminate the warriors, will the world be peaceful forever?"

This is a heavy topic.

Liang Yue turned around suddenly, his eyes like stars.

"Many people have asked me this question, and my answer is always the same."

"There is no eternal system in the world, and no country that can enjoy long-term peace. Heroes cannot escape the passage of time, and death is like the extinguishing of a lamp. Don't expect to establish an eternally peaceful world. Each generation has its own tasks, and they just need to complete their own historical mission. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless there is a master god who possesses immense power, has a noble character, and is as holy as jade, then eternal peace can be achieved."

The strong wind blows the Taoist's black hair, and the imperial star in the center is dazzling.

These words struck Zhao Kuangyin deeply in his heart.

"Master Lingbao, who are you?"

"Not a human being."

In an instant, a six-foot-tall golden body appeared.

The wind was rising and the clouds were surging, electric snakes were dancing wildly, Liang Yue turned into a ray of golden light, disappeared into the sky, and hid in Baiyujing.

It turns out that Taoist Lingbao really doesn't know martial arts, he is a god.

Zhao Kuangyin held his sword in silence, feeling lost and unable to recover for a long time.

There are still true gods in heaven and earth. We should put aside our warlike hearts and bring peace to the people.

Later, Zhao Kuangyin found out who Lingbao was.

"The Jade Emperor guards the world, and the gods and immortals patrol. You eat your salary, the fat and blood of the people. It is easy to abuse the people, but it is difficult to deceive the gods."

This sentence served as a warning to Zhao Kuangyin, and he always kept it in mind and told it to future generations.

"During the decline of the Five Dynasties, the Three Cardinal Guides were destroyed, and the Five Constant Virtues were wiped out. Blood flowed into rivers and lakes, and corpses piled up into hills. Emperor Taizu received a mandate from God and stood up to save the country. He personally wore armor and braved wind and rain, and conquered the east and the west, clearing the country..." - Records of the Five Dynasties.
