Zhang Cang is a very interesting person.
This guy first became an official in the Qin Dynasty through the back door of his senior brother Li Si. Later, because the laws of the Qin Dynasty were too harsh, even official Zhang Cang was not immune. After committing a crime, he could only flee for fear of punishment. As a result, he ran to Liu Bang's military camp and began to follow Liu Bang to conquer the world.
As a result, Zhang Cang was still restless. Not long after following Liu Bang, he committed another crime. This time it was even more serious and he was sentenced to death.
Just when Zhang Cang was about to be beheaded, he was seen by the future Prime Minister Wang Ling.
Historical records state: Cang was sentenced to death when he sat down, but he took off his clothes and bowed down as a pledge. He was tall, fat and white like a gourd. When Wang Ling saw him at that time, he was surprised at his beauty.
The general meaning is that Zhang Cang is tall and strong, which is a type of brave and imposing general in ancient times. However, he does not exercise regularly, so his fat body is as white as gourd seeds, which forms a sharp contrast with his height. This contrast naturally creates a strong comedic effect and is extremely conspicuous among a row of stripped prisoners.
Especially under the sunlight, it is dazzlingly white!
After seeing this scene, Wang Ling was stunned, and then he went directly to Liu Bang to plead for mercy, hoping that his death sentence would be pardoned and he would be allowed to make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence.
Because the crime committed was not unforgivable, Liu Bang agreed.
Later, when the whole country was conquered, Liu Bang appointed him Marquis of Beiping.
Although Zhang Cang's contributions could not be compared with those of Xiao He and Chen Ping, he was able to be granted a title of nobility, which made him a great contributor in the Western Han Dynasty.
After that, Zhang Cang served as a local official most of the time until Emperor Wen of Han, Liu Heng, ascended the throne. At that time, most of the heroes who followed Liu Bang to conquer the world had died. After Guan Ying's death, Emperor Wen of Han appointed Zhang Cang as his prime minister, and he served in this position for fifteen years.
This resume is truly legendary: he became prime minister at the age of eighty, served for fifteen years, and officially retired at the age of ninety-five. After retirement, he actually lived another ten years.
So far, he has outlasted five emperors of the Western Han Dynasty...
As for what crime Zhang Cang committed, it is actually not difficult to guess.
Zhang Cang had more than a hundred wives, both big and small, which was more than the emperor's harem.
And most of these wives are widows.
Therefore, the crimes he committed were nothing more than matters between men and women.
It was during the time when Su Che devoted himself to studying and practicing in the Jixia Academy.
at the same time.
In the real world.
The warship slowly sailed to the entrance of the two worlds.
now.
This was the third time the captain of the warship had communicated with the channel platform, but he still hadn't received any response.
This extremely abnormal situation made the captain frown, and for a moment he didn't know what was going on.
He wanted to consult the national general Su Che.
Unfortunately, the national general Su Che was practicing simulation and had no way to respond to him.
As the warship gets closer and closer to the channel between the two worlds.
The military warriors on the warship all noticed that something was wrong.
At first, someone used a marine telescope to observe and immediately found that there was no one on the platform guarding the passage. There were no patrolling soldiers to be seen. It was as quiet as death. This abnormal situation made the observers feel a little creepy.
“I can’t see anyone!”
“Why is there no one?”
“Something is wrong!!”
When the captain of the warship learned that there was no one on the platform of the two-world channel, he immediately made a decision:
"Return!"
"Return immediately!"
Although he was very curious about what happened in this unmanned channel platform, the captain, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, knew that curiosity could sometimes kill people, and such a big thing was definitely not something that a small person like him could solve.
Minister Yan must be informed immediately!
What a pity.
Although the captain's reaction was quick.
But it was still a little slow after all.
The passage platform was dead silent the previous second, but the next second a flood of demons rushed over.
Countless demons covered the entire sky , and the originally clear sky suddenly turned dark.
One after another, the top-level ninth-level strong men exuded extremely powerful auras unscrupulously.
The sea surface, which was originally as calm as a mirror, suddenly became turbulent. In the blink of an eye, huge waves surged. The warship seemed like a small fishing boat, being tossed around by the huge waves and having difficulty standing firm.
The terrifying aura of the ninth level peak plunged everyone on the warship into despair.
It was the first time they saw so many ninth-level demons.
After counting carefully, there were actually twelve ninth-level demons!
It's really a ghost!
How did they know that General Su Che was returning?
Who leaked this information?
Everyone looked deathly pale and closed their eyes in despair.
At this time, perhaps only Minister Yan can come to save them!
…
Demon town.
Another wave of demons is coming!
Outside the Demon Town, the wings of the Demon Saint Dapeng Bird can almost cover the entire Demon Town.
"The rising star of humanity, let's have a fight!"
The Demon Saint Peng Bird said calmly.
In the Demon Suppression City, Yan Xiao frowned and looked at the big bird in disbelief, saying in a strange voice: "Why would a demon saint come here?"
"Could it be that the fusion of the two worlds has accelerated?"
"Perhaps this is the only possibility."
"These demons don't have the patience to wait any longer. They don't want to wait any longer."
"So they accelerated the fusion of the two worlds... The cost must have been high."
"At least I have never heard of such a method..."
Facing the big peng bird, Yan Xiao was not afraid. He immediately soared into the sky and arrived outside the Demon-Suppressing City in an instant.
In front of the huge Peng bird, Yan Xiao was like an ant, but even so, his presence was very strong, making people feel that both sides were equal!
Feeling Yan Xiao's aura, the Demon Saint Peng Bird laughed: "Not bad! In such a short time, humans have a saint as strong as you!"
Yan Xiao stared at the bird head in front of him and asked directly: "Big Peng Bird, are you here to hold me back?"
"Did you guess it?" asked the Peng bird.
"I don't sense any murderous intent from you. You don't want to fight me to the death." Yan Xiao said lightly.
"Ha, you guessed right... Our target is not you, nor this Demon Town, but your disciple who is about to rise." Dapeng Bird did not hide it and confessed it right away:
"We will speed up the integration of the two worlds, destroy your two-world channel platform in advance, lay an ambush, and kill your son of destiny. This is the unanimous decision of the Demon Court."
"We must not give the child of destiny any more time to grow."
"He must die."
"As long as we kill him, we will do it at any cost."
"If we allow him to grow, he may become a fighter stronger than the Demon Saint in the future."
"This is something the Demon Court absolutely cannot tolerate."
Yan Xiao listened to the words of the Peng Bird and did not panic. Instead, he said calmly: "If Su Che is really the son of destiny, it means that you can't kill him at all."
The Peng bird did not refute. His shadow that blocked out the sky and the sun quickly disappeared and soon turned into a human figure. He smiled and said, "Then let's watch this drama unfold!"
…
On the sea with huge waves.
The warship drifted with the current, as if it would break apart at any moment.
Two figures slowly emerged inside the warship.
They were the high-level mythical Ying Zheng and Zhu Yuanzhang.
The two of them looked at Su Che who was in meditation and felt a little strange.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and said, "After such a long time, why hasn't he woken up yet? Logically speaking, several hours have passed, and his simulation should have ended."
Ying Zheng felt it quietly for a moment, then said with some surprise: "The reason lies in the Heroic Spirit Realm!"
"Heroic Spirit Realm?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised, and soon realized something. He said strangely: "Why did the two realms merge ahead of time? The Heroic Spirit Realm is about to collapse and disappear, and the power of the Heroic Spirit Realm's Heavenly Dao simulation is weakening...so his simulation time has been extended!"
"Yes, it must be the work of those demons." Ying Zheng nodded and said.
"Just to launch the general attack ahead of time and not give this kid any time to grow?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little puzzled.
"I'm afraid that's the case." Ying Zheng sighed slightly and said, "His growth rate is really too fast. Because he can interfere with the simulated world infinitely, his strength will increase by leaps and bounds almost every once in a while."
"Those demons couldn't understand the reason, but that didn't stop them from overturning the table."
"Originally, it would take about two to three years for the two worlds to merge."
"But if we allow Su Che to grow for another two or three years... the consequences for the demons would be unimaginable."
"So they chose to force the integration of the two worlds to accelerate at all costs."
"What a bold and generous move!"
Listening to Ying Zheng's analysis, Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that this should be the truth behind the matter. He said speechlessly: "These demons are really crazy. They are forced into a corner by this kid!"
"Yes, they are afraid of such a monstrous genius who has slaughtered countless eighth-level monsters and killed ninth-level monsters in seconds. If they drag it on, there will be more variables!" Ying Zheng said slowly: "However, what these monsters are doing is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst."
"What do you mean?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised.
"The Heavenly Dao of the Heroic Spirit Realm is conscious. The demons forcefully promote the fusion of the two realms, causing the Heavenly Dao consciousness of the Heroic Spirit Realm to disappear prematurely, which can easily cause the Heavenly Dao consciousness to be disgusted." Ying Zheng smiled slightly and said slowly: "Originally, this little guy has changed the fate of the heroes time and time again, and has caused changes in the Heavenly Dao of the Heroic Spirit Realm several times. When the Heroic Spirit Realm disappears completely, perhaps he will only get some extra rewards, such as making us stronger."
"But now, the Heroic Spirit Realm has disappeared ahead of schedule. This little fellow is likely to be favored by the Heavenly Dao Consciousness of the entire Heroic Spirit Realm and become a true son of destiny!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Don't mention it, it's really possible!"
"And that's not all." Ying Zheng said slowly, "Notify those heroes and let them bargain with the Heavenly Dao of the Heroic Spirit Realm. This is a good opportunity for them to be promoted."
"Their fate was changed by Su Che, which triggered changes in the laws of nature in the Heroic Spirit Realm. Their original rank restrictions were broken, and they had the opportunity to go further!"
"And now, the Heroic Spirit Realm is about to disappear, and their chance has come!"
"It's you, the First Emperor, who knows so much!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with emotion: "We have to inform them!"
Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ying Zheng told many heroes the news.
Among these heroes, except for Li Bai and Zhuge Liang who are at the initial mythical level, the others are at the peak of legend. At this moment, they all have the opportunity to go one step further and sublimate into initial mythical level existences.
After taking this step, the strength of every heroic spirit will be greatly improved.
After a simple notification.
Ying Zheng and Zhu Yuanzhang came outside the warship. They looked up at the densely packed demons in the sky and couldn't help laughing subconsciously.
The laughter was not loud, but it could be heard clearly all around, even to the sky, by all people and demons.
Whether it is the people on the warship or the densely packed demons in the sky.
Everyone heard this contemptuous laughter!
The appearance of two mythical high- level heroes was like a magic needle that stabilized the sea. The warship, which had been shaking continuously, soon calmed down, and the rough sea surface also gradually calmed down.
Ying Zheng looked up at the countless demons in the sky, and his eyes quickly swept over the twelve nine-level demons.
He said strangely: "You want to keep the Master without the Demon Saint? Aren't you a little too naive?"
Zhu Yuanzhang also laughed out loud. He said disdainfully: "Twelve ninth-level demons are not enough to fill our teeth. Let the master behind you come!"
"Arrogant!" The twelve ninth-level demons were naturally unhappy to be mocked in such a contemptuous manner. Their usual status was quite noble, so how could they be looked down upon like this?
"Just a heroic spirit!"
"It's time for you to disappear completely, a remnant of the old times!"
"If you don't have a host to rely on, your souls will be scattered. How dare you bark in front of us!"
"Your power comes from your host. When the spiritual power is used up, your power will also diminish!"
"Who gave you the courage to mock us?"
These nine-level demons were all furious.
"town!!"
Ying Zheng was too lazy to waste any more words and directly threw out nine large tripods. The nine tripods grew larger when they saw the wind and in the blink of an eye they turned into nine giant tripods the size of football fields, hovering above his head. The terrifying suction force appeared instantly and countless demons were sucked into it!
The twelve nine-segment great demons quickly formed a formation to help the demons resist. Otherwise, with the strength of these demons, they would be sucked away in minutes.
"Jinyiwei listen to my orders!!"
Zhu Yuanzhang on the side also took action.
Thousands of Jinyiwei dressed in Feiyu uniforms and embroidered spring swords on their waists reappeared out of thin air. Under the leadership of Zhu Yuanzhang's "capable army" skill, thousands of Jinyiwei and Zhu Yuanzhang merged into one, turning into an incomparably sharp knife, which pierced into the demon formation in the blink of an eye. In an instant, there was a bloody rain and wind, like autumn wind sweeping fallen leaves, and countless demons were killed instantly!
If the twelve and nine-stage demons were not of the same blood and united as one, several nine-stage demons would have been killed this time!
But even so, one ninth-level demon was still severely injured and nearly killed!
The war lasted for a long time, and the number of demons was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The situation that made these ninth-level demons vomit blood happened - why haven't these two mythical heroes exhausted their strength? !
