Chapter 454 Love at First Sight
Emperor Xin said this and walked towards the three Egyptian supreme gods opposite him.
He seemed to have let go of everything at this moment.
There is less vicissitudes of life on him, and more indifference.
He was willing to fight to the death so that Chu Yun could take the coffin away with him.
Of course Chu Yun can't die.
After all, Chu Yunke had promised him that he would testify for her and ask God for a formal position as a god.
Emperor Xin could not do such a thing because he was not familiar with God.
He does not have the inheritance of Pangu the Great, so there is no need for the Eastern Immortal God to give him this face.
Therefore, if one must stay behind to cover the rear, it is necessary to buy some time for the survivors.
Let Emperor Xin choose.
He would definitely choose himself to cover the rear!
I remember the day when I first met her.
Compared with today's sunny weather, it can be said that these are two completely different weather conditions, right?
Emperor Xin raised his head slightly, and the sunlight shone on his body. The warm light was so bright that it made people's eyes look dazed.
The memories of the time when he was the King of Shang Dynasty flashed by at this moment like a passing show.
He thought of the first time he met Daji.
That was the day when he personally led an expedition to Jizhou and conquered the rebellious Jizhou Hou Su Hu.
Jizhou is a bitterly cold place with heavy snow falling and the sky and earth are covered with white snow.
He rode on a dragon colt, followed by the elite armored soldiers of the Shang Dynasty.
The huge banner with the word "Shang" on it filled the space between heaven and earth like clouds rolling and unrolling.
It snowed heavily that day and my blood was hot.
He was extremely brave and led the army personally, beating the generals and capturing the city!
Break through the city gate and kill Su Hu!
He took over the vast land of Jizhou and brought it back under the control of the Shang Dynasty.
Jizhou's wealth, women, young and middle-aged people, etc. also became his spoils.
On that day, the army of Shang Dynasty shouted his name!
"king!"
"king!"
"king!"
As a prince, he seemed destined to sit on the throne. Countless soldiers looked at him with deep admiration and respect.
In that bloody and barbaric era, force was the absolute supreme power in the world.
No one can resist the charm of a man who leads by example and is invincible.
Including the Shang Dynasty soldiers who have always valued strength since ancient times.
This battle also laid the foundation for Emperor Xin to sit firmly on the throne of the Shang Dynasty in the future.
However, a small incident occurred on the way back to the triumphant capital.
There was a riot in the convoy carrying the prisoners.
For some unknown reason, the horses pulling the carts of Su Hu's team of wives and daughters were suddenly frightened, raised their front hooves, and trampled heavily on the snow.
Then, under the snow, several horses pulled a huge carriage and fled madly in the snow.
Ordinary soldiers were unable to control the frightened horses.
Until a big hand suddenly grabbed the reins!
Emperor Xin took action!
boom!
As the huge force surged, the horses were restrained and stood still, unable to move at all.
However, the huge force of inertia from running was still there, and the horses screamed and fell to the ground one by one.
The carriage slid out in the snow.
It didn't stop until it hit a huge rock.
But the carriage had been smashed to pieces.
Broken wood debris was scattered all over the ground.
Emperor Xin, who was wearing a white fox fur coat, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and an upright posture, could not help but frowning slightly.
The commander who was in charge of guarding the slaves crawled in front of him in the snow.
Seeing that he looked unhappy, she quickly knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me! Jizhou is bitterly cold, and the roads have been blocked by heavy snow recently, which is why the horses got scared."
"I have disturbed the king's pleasure. I deserve death. I deserve death!"
The commander kowtowed like pounding garlic.
Bang bang bang!
Every time he kowtowed, he meant it.
A snow pit was smashed into the snowy ground.
The bright red blood slowly flowed from his forehead, dyeing the white snow beneath him red.
King.
Emperor Xin glanced at the commander.
He is not a king yet, but the people below already respectfully call him the king.
This is nothing short of supreme respect!
It is also expressing one's loyalty to him!
Emperor Xin certainly would not let such a small matter discourage his loyal men.
And just when Emperor Xin wanted to say something.
"what?"
Emperor Xin suddenly looked towards the place where the carriage was smashed.
Under the big rock, in the dilapidated carriage, a young girl crawled out.
She looked to be in her teens, with waist-length hair and was wearing a thin white dress.
She used her hands and feet to climb out of the wrecked carriage in a daze.
A pair of feet as white and smooth as jade just stood in the snow.
The girl didn't seem to be afraid of the cold.
Like a wax figure, she was standing in the snow wearing only a thin white dress, and the cold wind blew up her jet-black hair.
Her eyes are also pure and incredible.
As innocent as a newborn baby, he is full of endless curiosity about the world.
Everyone present looked at the girl with strange behavior.
Everyone was stunned.
In full view of the crowd, people watched the girl stretch out her hand and let the snowflakes fall into her palm.
Sunshine, cold winter, heavy snow, a girl in a white dress and black hair.
This scene has a strange and beautiful feeling, like a poem or a painting.
"Put it on."
Until a man appeared and broke this brief tranquility.
Emperor Xin walked forward and took off his fur coat.
Without further ado, he enveloped the girl.
The girl was still in a daze. She tilted her head and looked at Emperor Xin in confusion.
"It's cold."
Emperor Xin's expression was normal, and his eyes were calm.
After saying this, he turned around and walked towards the army.
"The Commander-in-Chief."
"My subordinate is here!"
"she is?"
"Su Hu's daughter."
"Oh?"
"Well, Su Hu's daughter was lucky enough to survive the crisis here, which shows that she is very lucky."
"I order you to take good care of this girl and treat her as a distinguished guest. If you neglect her, you must pay with your life."
The moment he mounted his horse, Emperor Xin's extremely calm voice echoed in all directions.
But no one present knew that from this day on.
In their minds, this was the only prince qualified to inherit the throne of the Shang Dynasty.
There is a woman living in my heart!
Is there love at first sight in the world?
Those who have never encountered it may never believe it.
Including the previous Emperor Xin.
But today, he believed it.
Time soon came to the final moment of the Shang Dynasty.
The woman he loved died before him.
He had never believed in myths or destiny before.
But when the Great Zhou brought countless immortals and gods to attack him and gave him the title of butcher on earth and the king of evil.
He looked at Jiang Ziya, Yang Jian, Nezha, and those murderous gods!
He smiled.
"Haha, deifying on behalf of the heaven, following the will of heaven, and destroying the orphan's dynasty?"
"But if you want to kill me, you can. Why do you want to kill me?"
Emperor Xin murmured to himself.
With the demeanor of a king of a fallen country, he disdained to be captured by the enemy.
He walked towards the Deer Platform and personally lit the firewood beneath the high sacrificial platform.
boom! !
The flames rising into the sky illuminated the city filled with weapons and weapons and the pungent smell of blood.
Everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction where the fire came from in shock and surprise.
"King Zhou burned himself to death!"
"Great! King Zhou is dead! The Shang Dynasty is doomed!"
"We win, we win!"
After a brief silence, the soldiers of the Great Zhou raised their arms and shouted in joy.
But no one knows that King Zhou was Emperor Xin.
When he was burned in flames.
He thought of the traditional culture of the Shang Dynasty that his father taught them when he was a child.
Merchants do not fear ghosts or gods, but they respect God.
Emperor was the only god that the Shang people believed in when they offered sacrifices and asked for divination about good or bad luck.
But offering sacrifices to God requires bloody sacrifices.
Pigs, dogs, cows, and sheep are all fine, but the flesh and blood of foreign prisoners of war are the best.
This behavior is also called human sacrifice!
During human sacrifice, the victim’s status and position during his lifetime are also very important.
The best is the king, followed by the nobles, and then the common people.
Originally, Emperor Xin hated this traditional custom, and even planned to abolish it by force during his reign.
Not that he thought there was anything wrong with this behavior.
He just thought that foreign captives were also good manpower.
It can greatly enhance the national strength of the Shang Dynasty.
However, this action was tantamount to touching the interests of the old nobles of the Shang Dynasty.
After all, presiding over sacrifices and believing in divination are their privileges that distinguish them from the common people. Now, you, Emperor Xin, want to depose him. Are you crazy?!
It just so happened that there was a small vassal state under the Shang Dynasty that was very devoted to theocracy and was willing to call themselves the sons of God.
They will never shake the traditional rights of the priests.
It was also from this day that a small vassal state called Zhou gained the support of the old nobles.
This eventually led to the Shang army's defection during the Battle of Muye, which marked the demise of the Shang Dynasty.
Of course, Emperor Xin hated this kind of sacrificial behavior.
But at the moment before his death.
He still sacrificed himself.
This seemed to be his only hope.
Emperor Xin burned himself to death in Lu Tai!
With the best sacrifices and the highest standard of sacrifice, he is the king of the country!
Willing to dedicate myself to God!
He asked God two questions.
"I am willing to sacrifice myself. Can you help me destroy Shang?"
no answer.
"I have given up everything, including my flesh and blood, and my life's honor. Can you bring her back to life?"
Still no answer.
"Haha, it turns out that sacrifices and such are all illusions."
"Then from now on, I will transform into a human to slay evil spirits and plunder the heavens and earth."
"If the world takes away my love, then destruction is its fate."
"I will use the flesh and blood of gods to feed her vitality."
"I will take her back from the hands of death. No one can defy me, not even fate."
"No matter the cost, no matter what, it doesn't matter if the world curses me, insults me, or scolds me."
"For her, I must do this."
(PS: I have a big chapter for everyone. I went out for a social event today, drank too much, and came back too late. I will make up for it tomorrow.)
