Chapter 1 Immortality
Spring, New Year's Eve, 260 BC.

Zhao country.

In the capital Handan.

In the morning, Zhao Wangdan sat on the steps of the palace, wearing a bead curtain on his head.

One day, the historian was holding a scepter in the palace and reported:
"Your Majesty, half a month ago, a comet arrived. It was seen at the end of the night. It left the southwest at the first watch and landed in Dahuai Township, Hongdong, Zhao. This morning, officials from Hongdong County came to report that the comet half a month ago After that, one day, a spirit seducer appeared in Dahuai Township. His body was like jade, his makeup was like a living person, and he was wearing strange clothes, which were not the same as those of the Seven Kingdoms. He had not opened his eyes since he was born, and he had not drank or drank for seventeen days. To eat, some people were afraid that they were monsters. They burned them with fire and chopped them with axes, but no harm was seen to them. Now they are worshiped as "gods" by the local people and have built shrines to worship them."

Zhao Wangdan half-closed his eyelids and said lazily: "The villagers are ignorant and spread rumors. Most of them are untrue. Don't take them seriously. At the moment, you should focus on the war against Qin. The Qin army has provoked many times. The old and honest people in front are The general retreats without fighting, and is unwilling to change the general. Who do you think can replace Lian Po?"

"Your Majesty, Zhao Kuo, the son of the famous general Ma Fujun, is familiar with military books and has strategies in mind. The Qin army is very afraid of him. If Zhao Kuo is used as a general, he will definitely win a complete victory!"

Zhao Wangdan's eyes moved slightly and he was slightly happy:

"Zhao Kuo? The lonely king has long heard of his vast knowledge. If he replaces Lian Po, he will definitely win a great victory, defeat the Qin army in one fell swoop, and enter Xianyang! Zhao Kuo! Yes!"

…………

At the same time that Zhao Guo changed his generals before the battle, the young genius Zhao Kuo replaced the veteran general Lian Po.

In Dahuai Township, Hongdong County, which Zhao Wangdan did not care about.

Against the back of a large locust tree, a simple shrine like a hut was built.

In the Sheng Temple, a young man with long hair hanging down his shoulders sat cross-legged on a foot-high yellow mud shrine.

He wears a large white robe, has broad shoulders, a high nose, and a face as white as crystal, like a god's statue, with facial features that seem to be carved, surpassing all beauty in the world.

It is said to be a human form, but it is more like a sculpture of a god.

At this time, outside the shrine, there were hundreds of people, men and women, old and young, wearing all kinds of linen clothes and silk, all bowing around the shrine.

The villagers bent down and undulated, like waves in circles, with various wishes and voices pouring towards the statue.

"I pray that God will keep my whole family safe!"

"Please ask God to give my family a child to extend the incense!"

"May God be merciful and give me some money..."

It has only been half a month since this god descended from heaven accompanied the meteor and fell in Dahuai Township. People in dozens of surrounding villages have already heard about it and come to pray and pay homage.

Some couples prostrated themselves in front of them, praying to God to give them a child to carry on the family line.

Some people didn't believe it at first, but after they came here and saw the complexion that was completely different from that of a mortal, the facial features that were carved like a knife, and the divine temperament that was like a fairy, they had no choice but to believe it.

Old man Chen, the township leader, even took the lead in building a shrine for Him.

And when the old man Chen from Xiangzheng took his whole family to worship in front of the shrine every day, praying for the gods' blessings, the whole family was kneeling down.

Suddenly, I heard a child's tender voice saying:
"Ancestor, father, look, look, the god has opened his eyes."

Old Chen's son quickly lowered his head. When he saw his son actually stood up and pointed at the God, his face changed drastically. He immediately scolded: "Sheng'er, don't point your finger at the God. Kneel down quickly. Don't talk nonsense!"

He didn't take his son's words seriously at all.

How could the man of God open his eyes?
That’s not really alive!

But just after the man scolded his three-year-old son, he heard a commotion around the shrine. They all stood up and shouted in horror:
"The God opened his eyes!"

"The God opened his eyes!"

"The man of God has stood up!!!"

The man's mind suddenly exploded, like a lightning strike, and he turned his neck stiffly in disbelief...

I see.

The statue of the young man who was worshiped like a god by them was sitting cross-legged on the yellow clay platform. At this time, he actually opened his eyes and looked at him...

What kind of eyes are those.

He was obviously a young man, but he was so vicissitudes of life. He looked like a high-altitude god overlooking them, his eyes as deep and far-reaching as the starry sky in the dark night.

"God man!!"

Old man Chen, the township leader, opened his mouth wide and his scalp was electrified. But after all, he was the head of a township and was no better than the common people. Hearing the frightened shouts of the villagers behind his head, he was the first to react:

"The man of God appears, old man Chen Jiu bows down and worships the man of God!"

After Old Man Chen took the lead, most of the villagers followed the crowd and knelt down in fear.

But most of them still shouted: "God, please spare my life!"

"God, don't kill us!"

People are like that.

They were obviously being worshiped, but the first moment they saw the statue come to life, they felt not reverence, but fear.

After Old Man Chen knelt down, he lowered his head to the ground. Although he took the lead in kneeling, his heart was beating with panic. He only knew that kneeling down in this situation was always right, but it was hard to say whether it would be good or bad for the god to come back to life.

At a time of anxiety and panic.

But he felt a gust of breeze blowing from the shrine, which made old man Chen stand up straight unconsciously, making all the people of Dahuai Township kneeling here stand up straight.

Then, an extremely mellow male voice flowed into their ears.

"If it hadn't been for the power of the incense generated by your prostrations for more than ten days to wake me up, Jiang would have been sleeping for I don't know how many more years. You are all my benefactors, Jiang Taiyi. I have no time to remember your kindness, how could I have done it? Will it hurt you?"

This voice is powerful, reaching straight to the soul, gentle and warm.

Old man Chen, his whole family, and the people in the village felt as if they had been comforted, and they relaxed unconsciously.

"Taiyi!"

Old man Chen raised his head in awe, and after hearing the young man's self-announcement, he was shocked and said:

"It's God showing up!"

The man of god named himself Jiang Taiyi.

Not to mention that the surname Jiang was originally the surname of Emperor Yan.

Taiyi, isn't that the god revered by the Chu region? Even throughout the seven kingdoms of the world, it is the symbol of God. It is Haotian, God, and God.

"My goodness!"

The people were even more shocked by the gods they worshiped. The god in front of them turned out to be the Emperor of Heaven. When he opened his eyes just now, it was really God who opened his eyes!

"God Taiyi..."

Jiang Tai's eyes were calm, but he could see the reactions of hundreds of villagers below:

"Is your Heavenly Emperor of Heaven and Earth originally called Taiyi? It seems there is a misunderstanding. Jiang is not the God you think of, he is just an immortal practitioner."

Say it.

Old man Chen was confused, as if he didn't understand what a practitioner was.

But I clearly heard four words clearly.

Immortal!

The man of God himself admitted that he was an immortal being.

What is this if not God?
What in the world can be immortal? Spring and Autumn, cold and summer, birth, old age, sickness and death, no one can escape it. Only God can exist for a long time and always watch over the people.

Jiang Taiyi saw that the old man still had any misunderstandings, but he had no intention of explaining more. Instead, he asked:
"What age are you now? Who is your king? How big is this world?"

Old Chen reacted and quickly replied: "Huishenren, since the Zhou Dynasty, after the five great overlords of the Spring and Autumn Period, today the world is divided into seven kingdoms: Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Qin."

"The little old man's family is now located in Dahuai Township, Hongdong County, Zhao State. The king is Zhao Wangdan, the son of King Huiwen. Today is the beginning of King Zhao's 20th year."

"Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, Qin."

After Jiang Taiyi heard this, he said to himself:

"Are the Seven Kingdoms in trouble?"

When he came to this place, if he hadn't been awakened by the incense worship of the people in this village, he wouldn't have known how long he would have slept. Maybe he would have just fallen asleep and never woke up. Everyone in this village was kind to him...

talking room.

Then he looked at the child who first pointed at him and said to open his eyes. He was hiding behind Old Man Chen, looking at him with curiosity and reverence. His black eyes were like gems. Jiang Taiyi chuckled and said:
"What's your child's name?"

Just as Old Man Chen was about to speak, the little boy took the initiative to put his head out and said loudly:

"My name is Chen Sheng!"
