Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 42: Meng Tian’s life, Qin Changye entrusts Xiao Sizi!

Shaking his head, Patriarch Lu stopped thinking about it.

He put down the second chapter of Changsheng's Journey, which he had already finished reading, and picked up the biography that originally belonged to Meng Tian from the side.

This biography,

It is full of ancient atmosphere and it is easy to see that it comes from ancient historical relics.

The eyes of Patriarch Lu flickered slightly.

Who are these mysterious people?
Not to mention getting the things of the immortal "Qin", even Meng Tian's things can be obtained.

Is it possible….
Are they also immortals?
When he thought of this, a gleam of greed flashed in the eyes of the head of the Lu family.

But it soon disappeared.

Don't act rashly before you are sure that the other person is an immortal.

Moreover,
We haven't even found out the other party's background yet, even if he is an immortal, we must not act rashly.

Only by knowing yourself and knowing your enemy,

The Lu family will use their resources and try their best to get what they want.

They don't act rashly, they only act for profit, this is also the rule that has kept their Lu family going strong for so long.

Slowly, Patriarch Lu opened the biography of Meng Tian.

The previous part was all about Meng Tian's military service, but Mr. Lu was not interested in any of that. He couldn't even muster any interest in a dead person.

And when he saw the Emperor Zulong returning to Qin, he...started to watch it seriously!
[July 7th, I'm back. I heard that your Majesty's child was held hostage in Zhao State for several years. Can such a child still be trusted? ]

[Can he still remember that the flag behind him is Qin, not Zhao? ]

[It is said that the person who came back with His Highness Ying Zheng is a very important person and is His Highness's teacher. His name seems to be Qin Changye.]

[Well, this name is really good, with Qin at the beginning.]

……

Qin Changye...
Patriarch Lu nodded slightly. Is this... the name of the immortal?
He, took note!
Patriarch Lu continued to read.

……

[On July 7, His Majesty Ying Zheng arrived. His Majesty asked me to invite Qin Changye over. I thought this was just an ordinary invitation, but... Qin Changye got lost right in front of me!]

[I just didn't look for a while, and he disappeared. I searched for a long time before I found him. At first I thought he did it on purpose, but after asking, I learned that those people were used to it, used to Qin Changye getting lost.]

[This… In this world, there is actually such a person who has lost his way. Is it… appropriate for him to be your teacher? ]

……

[Your Highness has taken office as the King of Qin. He is only thirteen years old. This is a unique case in the history of our Great Qin. All civil and military officials are skeptical. They doubt whether Your Highness can lead the future of Great Qin.]

[It is understandable that they do not trust Your Highness. After all, Your Highness is too young. But no matter what, I, Meng Tian, ​​and the Meng family will follow you to the death! We will not let down the late emperor!]

……

[Dream~This journey has been nothing but a dream. 】

[Hahaha, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it! In just ten years, Your Highness destroyed the seven countries that had been fighting each other for hundreds of years, leaving only our Great Qin independent in the world.]

[This was unimaginable ten years ago. No one would have thought that His Highness, at only thirteen years old, had such a powerful energy in his body that he could lead us and end the troubled times!]

[Your Highness is extraordinary! At the same time, I also saw that Your Highness's teacher is extraordinary. He seems to... never age? He still looks the same as he did ten years ago. Not long ago, Wang Jian accidentally injured his hand, and it seems that he recovered very quickly. ]

[Is this my illusion? Or... Master Qin's body is not simple. ]

……

Seeing this, Patriarch Lu’s eyes widened to the extreme, not daring to miss even a single detail.

Longevity, longevity!
This is his dream.

And now,
The words in it all told him that this was not a dream! This was real longevity!
The head of the Lu family was breathing rapidly and turning over.

……

Two years later,
[It is confirmed, it is confirmed! After investigation by Xu Fu and other alchemists, it has been confirmed that Master Qin is an immortal. Not only does he not age, but he can also recover from injuries in a very short time. ] [Incredible! There are really immortals in the world. This... This may be a blessing from God to the Great Qin. Not only does the Great Qin have immortals, but it can even destroy the six kingdoms within ten years! Haha, a very good sign! A very good sign! ]

[In addition, Master Qin knew that His Majesty had been seeking immortality for a long time, and had been suffering for a long time, so he took the initiative to let Xu Fu and other alchemists to check his body, even if it was just... cutting some meat. ]

[But all of this was stopped by His Majesty. His Majesty is extremely enthusiastic about immortality, but he seems to have his own bottom line in some aspects.]

……

[Recently, progress in the search for immortality has been slow. Xu Fu has led people to the sea to find a way to immortality. However, Master Qin has been getting more and more sleepy. He said he has been holding on for a long time and can no longer hold on.]

[Your Majesty has built a cemetery for him with great effort. This will be the place where Master Qin rests.]

[Master Qin… Hey, this elder who has accompanied Your Majesty for many years, he… he…]

……

half year later.

[Master Qin finally... fell asleep. From the moment Master Qin fell asleep, His Majesty gave me an order. This is an unusual order, and it may even take the Meng family a thousand years to complete.]

[The order is difficult, but I... will try my best to complete it, and try my best to complete the inheritance of the ancient books of the Meng family. ]

……

[His Majesty is dead. In the end, he still could not find immortality. And I failed to protect His Highness Fusu. He also died in front of my eyes.]

[Why...why did the Qin Empire become like this? Everything was obviously going well, but why did such a great empire...become shaky in the blink of an eye?]

[I…I can’t figure it out, I can’t figure it out! ]

……

The handwriting of this record was extremely illegible. Patriarch Lu could tell from the handwriting that the person who recorded it at the time was definitely in a very uneasy mood.

It would not be an exaggeration to even say that it is unwilling.

Finally.

Patriarch Lu turned to another page, which was also the last one.

[Your Majesty, I'm sorry...Meng Tian failed to protect the Qin Dynasty.]

[The Qin Empire seems to have collapsed. The greatness of the Qin Empire seems to have been a dream, a beautiful dream.]

[I watched you with my own eyes as you annihilated the enemy states step by step. In ten years, you annihilated the six states. I also watched with my own eyes as you fell. The once-seemingly powerful Qin collapsed in an instant.]

[This all happened so fast, it really seemed like a dream. The sweet dream and the nightmare lasted almost the same amount of time, but why… couldn’t the sweet dream last longer?]

[Master Qin, I thought that your sleep would usher in a new era for the Qin Empire, and that when you woke up again, you would see a more powerful Qin Empire. However, I did not expect that... it would be the beginning of the decline of the Qin Empire from its peak.]

[I… I really want to lead these soldiers to attack the Xiongnu again and drive them out of the Great Wall a hundred miles away. I really want to… I really want to…]

[But I am destined to be unable to do it, Your Majesty, I am sorry. Master Qin, I am sorry... We clearly agreed to go back to see you two after His Highness Fusu's temperament has changed. Now it seems that we... can't go back.]

This is the end of the biography of Meng Tian.

This veteran and pillar of the Qin Dynasty has been full of expectations for the future of the Qin Dynasty since the beginning.

As Qin Changye fell asleep, Zulong died, and Fusu died...
With each of these heart-breaking events, he became more and more worried about the future of the Qin Dynasty, until he no longer had any expectations.

After reading it, Patriarch Lu felt touched.

But it was soon extinguished.

From the biography of Meng Tian and the second travelogue of immortality, he has learned a lot about the immortal named "Qin Changye"!

………………

The next day.

It's just dawn.

In the Wangyun Inn, Qin Changye got up.
