Happy Emperor

"Your Majesty, can you throw it in now?"

Huang Tianba stepped on Lin Meng on the ice and shouted to Emperor Li on the shore.

"He's upside down! Grab his feet and don't let my good brother be fed to the fish."

Lin Tian shouted at Huang Tianba.

"okay!"

Huang Tianba responded and then grabbed Lin Meng's feet.

Like dipping meat in a hot pot, Lin Meng was put into the cold pool water.

In order to allow Lin Meng's body to be in the water longer, Huang Tianba even squatted down 'thoughtfully'.

"Li Changshi, Prince Zhao."

Lin Tian on the shore saw that Lin Meng had already entered the water and looked at the two of them with a smile.

The two heard Emperor Li calling them.

He stood up immediately, bowed slightly, and waited for Emperor Li's instructions.

The better your attitude, the better it is.

"I would like to make a bet with you two, my dear ministers. Are you interested?"

Lin Tian asked with a smile.

"bet?"

When the two heard that Emperor Li wanted to make a bet with them, they were both stunned.

After a while.

Zhao Xiankun was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, I have lost! What is the stake? I will give it to you right away."

Compared to Zhao Xiankun who was incomprehensible, Li Yi was better.

He knew that Emperor Li was not the kind of tyrant who would kill people for fun for no reason.

In fact, Emperor Li cannot be blamed for using such means in this matter.

We can only blame Lin Meng for being so ignorant of the current situation.

Li Yi cupped his hands and asked, "I wonder what your majesty wishes to bet with me?"

Lin Tian didn't care about Zhao Xiankun's performance.

He turned to Li Yi and said with a smile, "Li Changshi, how long do you think Lin Meng can hold out down there?"

"Any experienced fisherman wouldn't hold their breath underwater for more than thirty breaths. But the water is freezing right now, and since he's standing upside down, I think Lin Meng can only hold it for fifteen breaths at most."

In ancient times, there was no concept of minutes and seconds. When describing a short period of time, people usually used their breathing to calculate.

A normal person breathes in and out for about four seconds.

Fifteen breaths is about one minute.

The reason why Li Yi said this was actually out of selfish motives.

This implies that it is best not to leave Lin Meng in ice water for more than one minute, otherwise it may be fatal.

The reason why Li Yi did not want Emperor Li to execute Lin Meng was because if he could really persuade the three kings of different surnames to surrender at the same time this time.

Whether from a private or public perspective, it can be said to be a great achievement.

It may even make you famous forever.

Lin Tian heard this but did not reply.

Instead, he turned his head and looked into the pool.

Huang Tianba's hands were like two big vises, firmly grasping Lin Meng's legs.

Lin Meng is still struggling at this moment.

Fifteen breaths have passed.

Lin Tian then smiled and said, "Li Changshi, it seems that what you said is not true!"

When Li Yi heard this, his heart twitched slightly and he smiled awkwardly.

"I believe Lin Meng is definitely not an ordinary person. He can definitely hold on for forty breaths!"

As soon as these words came out.

Li Yi's body trembled slightly, while Zhao Xiankun simply stopped looking up and stood aside without saying a word.

After forty breaths, if he didn't suffocate to death, he would probably freeze to death.

"Your Majesty..." Li Yi still wanted to fight for it and was about to speak.

But Lin Tian stopped him by waving his hand.

"Li Changshi, I'm making a bet with you. Please don't disturb my fun."

"I believe I won't lose." Lin Tian chuckled, "If I lose, the worst that can happen is that I won't let Lin Meng hold it in for so long next time."

"Next time?"

"If you lose, there won't be a next time!"

In the cold winter, Li Yi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

Emperor Li was clearly smiling, but he felt unusually cold.

Thirty breaths passed as he spoke.

Lin Meng, with her legs exposed on the ice cave, had stopped struggling at this moment.

Don't know whether to live or die.

"Your Majesty, do you want to pull him up? This kid won't move."

Huang Tianba on the ice shouted to Li Di on the shore.

"Don't worry! Lin Meng can still hold on for a while."

"okay!"

Huang Tianba didn't care whether Lin Meng was dead or not under the water. To him, Emperor Li's order was the only criterion for his actions.

Another ten breaths passed.

At this moment, An Bilie also brought people with braziers to the edge of the pool. He was slightly stunned when he saw this situation.

I was secretly surprised: "So this is the world of ice and fire."

"Pull up!"

Lin Tian then slowly opened his mouth and shouted to Huang Tianba.

After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the pool.

Although Lin Tian did not call Li Yi and An Bilie, when they saw Emperor Li walking towards the center of the pool, they followed him.

Zhao Xiankun on the shore hesitated for a while, and finally tiptoed to follow the few people.

Lin Meng, who was pulled up, was lying straight on the ice, his face pale and bloodless.

But his body was indeed red, obviously he had been frostbitten.

No one knew whether he was dead or alive.

"It seems I have overestimated Lin Meng."

Lin Tian pretended to be a little regretful but his eyes were fixed on Lin Meng.

In fact, he had a rough idea in his mind. As long as a normal person holds his breath for no more than three minutes, he may only feel like he is on the verge of death, but he will most likely not die.

But if Lin Meng really died, it would just be his bad luck.

He won't accept this kind of thing unless he experiences the feeling of meeting the King of Hell.

Right now.

Lin Meng, who had been lying motionless on the ground, suddenly twitched.

Then, accompanied by a violent cough, a mouthful of water sprayed out of his mouth.

"Your Majesty is still wise!"

Li Yi let out a sigh and sighed.

Lin Tian smiled and said, "I still underestimated Lin Meng's ability. Judging from this, he can at least hold on for twenty breaths."

As soon as these words came out, no one else could react.

Lin Meng, who was lying naked on the ground, turned over and knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I was wrong. Please don't let me in again."

Lin Meng cried so hard that her heart was broken and her head hit the ice with a loud bang.

"Hahaha."

Huang Tianba burst into laughter upon seeing this, kicked Lin Meng to the ground, and cursed: "What? Now you know who the emperor is!"

Lin Tian also sneered, "I still like your unruly look, how about you recover?!"

"I...I don't dare anymore. I really don't dare anymore. My dear brother, no no no, my dear brother, just treat me like a fart and forget it."

"Uncle Wang Qian, I have something else to tell you!"

Lin Meng climbed up again and cried.

He was smart enough to bring up Wang Qian, the vassal king.

“Your Majesty, please forgive him this time. After all, he is a special envoy sent by Prince Wang Qian.”

Li Yi spoke up and whispered something in a low voice.

"I just said it's a world of ice and fire."

Lin Tian looked very interested at the moment and said with a smile: "We just experienced ice, but not fire yet? How can we give up halfway like this?"

He said this just to scare Lin Meng and make him completely obedient.

Although ancient people did not have the medical knowledge that we have today, they knew that people who were frozen should not be warmed by the fire immediately.

Otherwise it would be tantamount to suicide.

Sure enough, Lin Tian said this.

Lin Meng kowtowed even harder, trembling as he shouted, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, Uncle Wang Qian is ready to surrender to you, and..."

But Huang Tianba really thought that Lin Tian was going to roast Lin Meng with fire, and at this moment he had already picked up the brazier...
