He fell silent when he learned what kind of environment his descendants would live in.
"They all love you and always hope that you can live forever and bring a different future to posterity. Are you willing?"
Ying Zheng clenched his fist, his tone as weighty as mountains and rivers: "I will certainly not fail in my duty."
Ying Zheng ate the elixir made from Tang Sanzang's flesh, and miraculously returned to his former glory.
A commotion broke out in the audience; everyone was captivated by Ying Zheng's handsomeness.
"Holy crap, how did they find these actors? They practically dug out my ancestors from the ground up."
"The historical records say that Emperor Zheng was eight feet tall and had a magnificent appearance. Now I finally understand what that means. He was so handsome."
"Ahhh, so handsome and good at fighting, no, I have to restrain myself, this is our ancestor, I can't desecrate him."
Lin Xiaoxiao was so excited that she almost scratched her hands raw. What an amazing plot! Director Zhuang, I'm bowing down in admiration.
Qi An transformed into the goddess Nuwa and appeared in the sky above the Qin King's palace.
"Qin Emperor Ying Zheng, with extraordinary talent, diligent in governing and loving the people, is the chosen emperor. He is hereby granted eternal life to benefit the people."
The people of Qin all witnessed this miracle and knelt down to worship the chosen emperor who walked out of the palace against the light.
From this moment on, history will be rewritten.
Afterwards, Qi An and Ying Zheng drank together in the Qin Palace. The two powerful men, who had inexplicably hit it off from their first meeting, became friends.
Qi An left Ying Zheng with five thousand years of Chinese history and the Dragon Roar Technique, and then departed.
"Just like your little brats, I also look forward to your descendants. Until we meet again."
There is often discussion online about how history would have unfolded if Qin Shi Huang had obtained the elixir of immortality.
Now, this whimsical scene has been brought to the screen and presented to the public.
What was it like in later generations?
Everyone's eyes widened.
Freed from the threat of disease and death, this born king could finally realize his grand ambitions and create the prosperous Qin Dynasty he envisioned.
With Ying Zheng in charge, the world was dominated by the Qin Dynasty, and there were no more bloody dynastic changes.
As the Qin Dynasty expanded, all the states and foreign nations submitted to it. The people were no longer harassed by war, and no longer had to worry about being displaced or losing their homes.
Ying Zheng was diligent in governing and loved his people. He reduced taxes and corvée labor, and promulgated the imperial examination system early, selecting talents without being bound by convention.
He advocated gender equality, monogamy, and that women should enjoy the same rights as men, including the right to attend school, take the imperial examinations, and become officials.
Instead of exclusively respecting Confucianism, a hundred schools of thought were encouraged to flourish, each with its own strengths, taking the essence and discarding the dross.
In short, anything that is good for the country and its people can be adopted.
The only difference is that the penal code has become increasingly severe. From princes and nobles to commoners, anyone who dares to violate the law will be punished according to the law, without exception.
"This is the chosen emperor, this is the Qin Shi Huang in my heart."
"Our ancestor is mighty!"
History books are being rewritten page by page, and those tragedies that once caused rivers of blood are being avoided one by one.
Ying Zheng appointed people based on merit, executed treacherous officials and promoted loyal ministers and generals, and did not allow any talented people to go unrecognized.
The people lived in peace and contentment, and the Qin Dynasty grew stronger and stronger, with prosperity and flourishing from top to bottom.
The audience was thrilled, and someone shouted at the screen, "Brother Zheng, don't forget to have a little affair! Nip those bastards in the bud!"
The others unanimously seconded the motion.
As if hearing everyone's plea, soon, envoys from the overseas Japanese kingdom arrived with treasures and pledged allegiance to the Qin Dynasty.
Then, amidst everyone's anticipation and tension, Ying Zheng unveiled the treasure, beheaded the envoy, and annihilated the Japanese kingdom, leaving not even a dog behind.
Seeing this exhilarating scene, the young people in the audience jumped up from their chairs in excitement.
"Ahhhh, Brother Zheng is awesome! I love you, Brother Zheng!"
A perfectly good movie theater turned into a fan meeting, with the audience full of fans of Ying Zheng.
History continued to move forward, the territory of the Qin Dynasty continued to expand, and the Qin flag was planted wherever human power could reach.
The humiliating past of foreign invasion and the exploitation of the people is gone, replaced by a prosperous era.
Ying Zheng would not allow his people to be bullied in any way.
Later, all the countries that could be found on the globe became the territory of the Qin Dynasty, and Ying Zheng became the "village chief" of the global village.
That book on five thousand years of Chinese history has been transformed into the history of the Qin Dynasty.
The year finally came to the end of the 20th century, to the era in which the young people present lived.
Everyone wants to see what kind of era the immortal ancestors created for their offspring.
In the void, Xu Xiaoxiao cried and laughed, repeatedly shouting, "I saw it all! This is the era I've always dreamed of! I want to be reincarnated! I want to cling to Brother Zheng's leg!"
Everyone was curious: what exactly was this thing they were so eager to do?
The camera followed Qi An to Xianyang.
For the next ten minutes or so, laughter mingled with tears in the audience, and everyone present became Xu Xiaoxiao.
They all saw it.
Xu Xiaoxiao is right, that was truly the era I've always dreamed of.
What a happy country this is!
Everyone is free, equal, valuable, safe, and dignified.
The elderly are cared for, and the young are supported. They come into this world crying, but leave with smiles.
The relaxed and joyful smiles on everyone's faces perfectly illustrated what it means to be happy to have come into this world.
At the end of the movie, under the setting sun, at the gate of the Qin King's Palace.
Ying Zheng, dressed in modern clothes, was surrounded by a group of chattering teenagers. Some were complaining, some were asking him to tell them about his inspection, and others were handing him snacks.
Ying Zheng still looks the same as he did two thousand years ago; only his deep eyes tell tales of experience and stories.
Surrounded by children, his eyes were fixed ahead, as if piercing through the screen, looking at everyone present, and he smiled and parted his lips:
"Little ones, eat well and sleep well."
This line was added by Ying Zheng himself, and it was addressed to the children of this world.
No matter how tough life gets, make sure you eat well, sleep well, and love yourself.
The camera gradually zooms out, and the movie ends.
But in another timeline, the story of the Qin Dynasty continues...
Lin Xiaoxiao burst into tears, followed by a chorus of sobs throughout the room. No one left their seat, and no one spoke.
The movie had a powerful aftereffect; it felt as if they were witnessing the continuation of the Qin Dynasty alongside Ying Zheng, and that wonderful world seemed to truly exist.
After seeing such a world, no one can help but yearn for it.
After the end credits rolled, a surprise scene appeared. Everyone wiped their eyes and hurriedly looked up to see it.
Ya Zi did not take Xu Xiaoxiao's soul, but told her that Ying Zheng had already paid the price for her.
Knowing what the price was, Xu Xiaoxiao cried and shouted that she didn't deserve it, and then was kicked out of the void by Ya Zi and reincarnated into the world she longed for.
After a moment of silence, Lin Xiaoxiao cried even louder.
"Waaaah, how could Brother Zheng be so kind? Those are Terracotta Warriors! Give them back to my Brother Zheng!"
A man sitting in the corner, wearing a hat and mask, listened to the crying in the room and helplessly rubbed his forehead.
These kids can really cry!
Perhaps it's because they have a lot of grievances in their hearts.
