Volume 1 The Long Night Will Dawn Chapter 104 Inheritance
night.
The Hanjin Pavilion is brightly lit.
Lin Yan walked through the quiet corridor, and the bamboo forest rustled.
Under the bright moonlight, the Azure Dragon of the East China Sea moved from the lake, spread its broad bat-like wings, and let out a low dragon roar. Its huge body flew onto the roof of the Hanjin Pavilion and perched on it.
The emerald green scales reflect a faint green luster.
It feels like being in a mythical era.
Lin Yan walked into Hanjin Pavilion and found that Jia Yi and others were having dinner here. There were still four councilors and Dai Chun. Lin Yan was already very familiar with them, so there was no need to be polite and unfamiliar with them as before. He walked directly to an empty seat and sat down.
"Zhu Xi, go get some more bowls and chopsticks for Lin Yan."
Jia Yi said to Zhu Xi.
Zhu Xi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get it."
He went to get a set of bowls and chopsticks and handed them to Lin Yan, then said with a smile: "Don't miss this meal even if you have already eaten at home. This is cooked by your chief Dai himself."
Lin Yan was a little surprised. Is this really the case?
Dai Chun cooks by himself?
He said with great interest, "Then I have to taste the chief's cooking skills, but I have to make it clear in advance that I am an upright person and never flatter. If it doesn't taste good, I will tell you frankly."
Dai Chun laughed and scolded, "Eat your food. You can act so arrogant even when you're eating."
Lin Yan chuckled, then picked up a piece of twice-cooked pork and put it into his mouth.
Um?
There's something!
Jia Yi laughed and asked, "Lin Yan, how is Master Dai's cooking?"
Lin Yan put down his chopsticks and said, "Today I learned that Commander Dai is not only good at both literature and martial arts, but also has such a hidden skill. He is truly a man who never reveals his true colors."
"With this cooking skill, he is more than worthy of being called an imperial chef. It would be a complete waste if he gave it to me."
He has always been upright and honest, so he naturally tells the truth.
Jia Yi said with emotion: "You don't know this. When Dai Chun first joined the army, he was a member of the kitchen team. After so many years, he has now become the head of the military region."
Dai Chun retorted: "Deng was just a teacher at a military academy at that time, and he is still a planetary level now."
Deng Jun used to be very serious, but today he took a sip of wine and said mysteriously, "There is something I have never told you. I will tell you today."
Dai Chun got anxious when he heard this, and stood up and said, "Deng Jun! Don't drink a little and tell anyone anything!"
I just called you Brother Deng.
He immediately turned hostile.
Tuoba Ji immediately pulled him to sit down and asked curiously, "What's the matter? Tell us."
Deng Jun smiled and said, "Dai Chun was in the kitchen at that time. Everyone called him 'Handsome '. He was not like he is now. He was quite fat. He was put in the kitchen because of his big appetite. But I didn't expect that he had a good talent for cultivation. That's why I transferred him out."
Dai Chun was so anxious that his face turned red.
"I won't invite you over for drinks next time. How can you tell anyone anything?"
The whole room burst into laughter.
Jia Yi specifically explained to Lin Yan that because Dai Chun's wife was strict at home and he was old, he was not allowed to drink. Sometimes he felt it was tasteless to drink secretly, so they had to occasionally meet at Hanjin Pavilion and he would cook himself.
They drank and talked, savoring the past.
Those past years seem like yesterday in their mouths.
Laughing and crying.
They are all of advanced age, having personally experienced that era of despair and pain, and have continued the Chinese flame through the blood and fire.
Talking about sad things.
Tuoba Ji burst into tears: "At that time, Nan Biao told me that we couldn't withdraw. What would happen to the hundreds of thousands of people along the coast if we withdrew?"
His hair was gray and he was the oldest person present. His chin was trembling and the wrinkles on his face were deeper.
"I can't fight you. I really can't fight you."
"We lost 753 soldiers to that monster, and it was Nan Biao who finally chopped off its head."
"But at that time, he was barely in human form, and he was holding on to his last breath. After he passed away, his wife and children wanted to see his body, but I didn't dare let them. I could only say that it was difficult to handle the body in the summer, so I had to cremate it on the spot."
Tuoba Ji lowered his head, tears falling uncontrollably.
He will never forget that scene.
The sun was shining that day.
Dong Nanbiao's wife looked haggard, holding his black-and-white photo and silently shedding tears. His children cried sadly, and his daughter's innocent voice echoed in their ears.
"Mom, why hasn't Dad come back yet?"
"Why are you and your brother and sister crying?"
Her little hand held her mother's sleeve and she said in a clear voice, "Mom, don't cry."
…
do not Cry.
Those moving names engraved in history said that people should live like human beings, and should have human rights, human happiness, and human dignity.
To prevent more people from crying.
I will never regret even if I die nine times.
Lin Yan didn't expect to see this scene.
They were like a group of drunkards, with a table full of empty wine bottles. They were all warriors, so drinking wouldn't have much of an effect on them, but under the influence of alcohol, their usual strength would disappear, and they would never forget the scars that could not heal.
The grievances and pain they have endured over the years are no less than those of others.
Compared with millions of people in the world, they mean strength and power, but compared with the trend of the times, they are just a group of ordinary people who often feel powerless.
Jia Yi's eyes were red, and he knocked on the table and said, "Let's drink till now. We can't drink any more. It's supposed to be a happy day, why did it turn out like this?"
Several people calmed down.
Jia Yi looked at Lin Yan and sighed, "Lin Yan, we are really happy today."
"Did you know? After the production line was put into operation, the output of coenzyme R3V was 23 times higher than before. The chalcedony was processed into medical instruments through the ancient civilization ruins at a saturated output. We can obtain 132 pieces of chalcedony per month. Before, we couldn't even produce 10 pieces."
"The production line of coenzyme R3V is still being expanded, and the X gene capsule is also being initially put on the market. We have not only lowered the price, but also implemented education subsidies so that students can use it first."
"Our cost is actually quite low. I will set up a new department to be responsible for this matter and ensure that it is implemented. Your Ministry of Heaven will also have to supervise this in the future."
Lin Yan said: "Okay."
"Also, people are powerful. If their character can't keep up, chaos will arise. These things will be handled by the Ministry of Heaven from now on. You should do what you should do, regardless of your identity or age. If the existing laws and regulations are not clear enough, urge them to correct them."
Jia Yi said solemnly: "We should put social stability and the interests of the people first."
"I see."
Jia Yi smiled and said, "Come to think of it, your girlfriend is also a capable person. She actually made important achievements in the regeneration of severed limbs through the body tissues of the Octopus Beast King."
"Why are you keeping the eau de vie secret? Why are you holding an auction? Why are you not supplying it in large quantities? When they find out, they will probably be dumbfounded."
Lin Yan smiled and said, "I didn't expect she could do this."
"That's great! In a few years, I'll have your deeds written into the textbooks, so that future students will know what you two young people, who are not much older than them, did in 2056."
Zhu Xi's face was filled with anticipation and yearning: "They will surely be very envious."
Not only that!
When they see Wen Zhian's appearance, they may even become jealous to the point of separation!
Lin Yan smiled.
Jia Yi stood up and said, "Okay, it's time to get down to business."
"Lin Yan, come with me."
Lin Yan was a little confused.
The other people present looked normal, obviously knowing what was going on. They all stood up and followed Jia Yi.
Lin Yan followed behind.
They came to a spacious room and Jia Yi turned on the light.
Under the white light, there are four glass display cases in the room.
Jia Yi looked at the items in the glass display cases and said with emotion: "These things were prepared for you, but I didn't expect that they would be handed over to you so soon."
"Think about it, five months ago, you were just a soldier."
Lin Yan's expression was somewhat solemn.
Jia Yi opened the first display case, which contained a black military uniform that was somewhat similar in style to a military dress uniform. Lin Yan saw at a glance that the epaulettes on the uniform were a golden star emblem.
"I had someone design a set of military uniforms specifically for the Heavenly Department. I hope that in the future, it will represent justice and order."
"This is yours as Minister."
Without waiting for Lin Yan to say anything, Jia Yi took two steps forward and opened the second display case: "This is a set of SS-level combat uniforms and shields. They are the best products we have ever made, and they are also tailor-made for you."
Then the third display case was opened, revealing a black ring.
"This is the Black God Suit. You have seen it. As long as you wear it on your hand, it will automatically penetrate your skin and absorb some of the blood, making it fit perfectly with your body and change its shape as you wish."
"It is almost indestructible and can reduce 90% of the impact force. It can protect you and we can feel more at ease."
"If you need to go on a mission, you wear the Black God suit inside and the SS-level combat uniform outside. This way you can avoid danger to the greatest extent."
Lin Yan was a little silent, and even felt a little anxious. He felt that this was most likely forced out of him by someone.
It is difficult for China to have such surplus.
I feel unworthy of this.
"There's one last thing."
Jia Yi had a mysterious smile on his face. The last display case was covered with red silk, and he uncovered the red silk.
Lin Yan was stunned.
This is?
An ancient sword.
The whole body is golden and is inserted vertically into the table of the display cabinet.
Jia Yi opened the glass display case and whispered, "Lin Yan, pull it out."
Lin Yan walked forward, put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and slowly pulled it out.
One side of the sword is engraved with the sun, moon and stars, and the other side is engraved with mountains, rivers and plants. One side of the hilt is inscribed with the techniques of farming and animal husbandry, and the other side is inscribed with the strategy of unifying the world.
This is?
Jia Yi said with a smile: "This is the sword that will make my name known through the ages in China."
"The holy way is glorious."
"Xuanyuan."
Lin Yan was shocked and asked, "How is that possible?"
It is questionable whether the legends handed down from the Yellow Emperor era 4,700 years ago actually existed.
What's more, even if it exists, if you remove those mythological elements, it's just a bronze sword!
"After testing, we found that it is indeed a product of that era. However, the material used to make the sword is very special. It is not ordinary copper. However, its condition has not been well preserved after so many years."
“I just wanted to treat it as an ancient artifact.”
"But then I thought, when the hammer struck, the sword left the mark of the times, and when the sparks flew, it was also the afterglow of a brilliant civilization. I finally decided to recast it with modern technology, trying to preserve the original appearance of the sword. I hope that the humanitarian spirit preserved in the Xuanyuan Sword can still shine in your hands."
"That must be a good story."
He said in a kind tone: "Lin Yan, this is all we can give you. The rest of the way will be up to you."
Lin Yan looked at the five of them. They stood together, looking at him with smiles on their faces. There was both entrustment and expectation in their eyes.
Carry on the past and open up the future.
This is inheritance.
The inheritance of morality.
