Chapter 730: Do I have to pay for food?
"How much do you remember about your past life?"
"I remember standing in the court, being framed, with all the evidence pointing to me. Then, I traveled to Kyushu."
"It seems that we are the same, and perhaps the idle Jiang Li is the same."
The First Emperor was not surprised that Jiang Li knew Xianren.
Xianren told him that first, the Human Emperor Jiang Li came into his dream and beat him up, and then he, the First Emperor Jiang Li, also came into his dream and beat him up.
When the First Emperor was looking for Jiang Li in his dreams, he would often meet idle people, with whom he would exchange battle experiences, of course, using actual combat.
Perhaps it was because he had been idle for too long. Even if the First Emperor trained him, he could not regain his former talent in a short time. He was still accustomed to the various fancy abilities given by the system.
"We're here. This is it."
The two men came to the gate, and above the gate, the four big words "Mental Hospital" were crumbling.
"Asylum?"
Coming here, the memories hidden deep in his mind awakened, and the First Emperor gradually remembered how he died.
"It turns out that everyone thinks that energy is conserved, but I am the only one who thinks that energy is not conserved?" Like Jiang Li, the First Emperor also needed some time to react.
He lived for five hundred years, became a being more powerful than the heavens, only to find out in the end that he was actually a psychopath.
This is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that energy is really not conserved.
After breaking through the Mahayana stage, the spiritual energy used by the First Emperor for cultivation was all created by himself.
"It turns out that I was once driven crazy by reality." The First Emperor murmured to himself. He never thought that he had such a past.
"What I hope is that the injustice I encountered will not happen to others again, and what you hope is that you are the one who inflicts injustice." Jiang Li said.
The First Emperor snorted coldly. He felt that he was the normal person and Jiang Li was an outlier.
Jiang Li patted the First Emperor on the shoulder and said, "Let's go. As the strongest person in this world, you should also fulfill your duties as a host and take me, a guest, to visit Kyushu and the world you rule."
Upon learning that he was a mental patient, the First Emperor did not have many thoughts. If this level of illness could make him doubt himself, then the inner demon calamity would have restored his memory long ago.
"Let's go." The First Emperor was very satisfied with the current situation in Jiuzhou.
He wanted to prove to Jiang Li that even though his strength was not as good as Jiang Li's, his philosophy was correct, and the Jiuzhou under his rule was better than Jiang Li's.
On the way back to Jiuzhou, Jiang Li recounted what he saw and heard after defeating Tian Dao.
"It turns out that this world has rules." The First Emperor had never heard of this statement.
"You've never been to the underworld?" Jiang Li was surprised. He first learned about the eight rules from Hou Tu Huang Ji.
The First Emperor was even more puzzled: "Why do you want to go to the underworld?"
Jiang Li took the Tianyang Poison Pill rewarded by the system and went to the underworld. However, the pill rewarded by the system was not used to go to the underworld, but was given to Jiang Li five hundred years ago to poison a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. This was part of the task of finding the fragments of the Immortal Ladder.
Jiang Li uninstalled the system before he encountered this task.
"I thought that based on your personality, you would rule the underworld."
The First Emperor shook his head: "I am in charge of life, and the underworld is in charge of death. If I were in charge of death, wouldn't it mean that people would be born and then die, and then be resurrected from the dead, and the boundary between life and death would be blurred, and death would no longer be scary."
Although the First Emperor was arrogant, he always had a clear understanding of himself.
He is not fit to govern the underworld.
Seeing this, Jiang Li had no choice but to start from the beginning: "I met Hou Tu Huang Ji in the underworld. She told me that the laws governing the operation of the world are based on eight rules."
"Later, I learned in the Observer World that there is a place where possibilities converge above the long river of time. I also encountered a strange phenomenon, which is the black tide that can swallow the world. At that time, I didn't know that the black tide was actually the ninth rule."
"Observer World?"
The First Emperor also did not know the Observer World.
Jiang Li was able to go to the Observer World because he used the tortoise shell to divine the location of the Immortal Realm a thousand years ago. The First Emperor did not choose to use the tortoise shell to divine this question. What he asked was "Am I the strongest in the world?"
The tortoise shell divination answered yes, and then the First Emperor put away the tortoise shell deck with satisfaction.
"Later, I defeated the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao told me why He chose to destroy the world..."
"Taichu created the world and nine rules. The ninth rule is the rule of destruction..."
"The embodiment of the rule of destruction is the black tide, which will surely sweep across the world..."
"There are two ways to save the world. One is to become the only consciousness in the world, and the other is to establish order and fight against the destructive rules of disorder."
"Although you don't know the rules of destruction, the order you established in Jiuzhou can just resist the rules of destruction."
After hearing what Jiang Li said, the First Emperor raised his chin slightly. Although it was an accident, it also proved that he was right.
"In that case, I need to increase my efforts to explore the heavens and myriad worlds and protect them."

The First Emperor quickly realized what his next move should be. He was the master of all the heavens and worlds, and it was his duty to protect the world.
This is also the purpose of Jiang Li coming to the parallel world.
The fairy world is not important. In front of the current First Emperor, the fairy world cannot make any waves. The most important thing is to protect the First Emperor's world from being eroded by the black tide.
On this point, Jiang Li and Chu Di share the same views.
Rather than being the last conscious being, cherish the present.
While talking about their different experiences, the two returned to Jiuzhou and came to the Great Zhou Dynasty. According to today's term, this is the Great Zhou Region.
The First Emperor came in openly, and was pulled by Jiang Li: "You are going to take me around in your true appearance?"
The First Emperor said arrogantly: "I do things openly and honestly, why should I hide it?"
Jiang Li: “…”
He felt that the First Emperor was not taking him for a stroll, but was inspecting him.
"You haven't done this many times, have you?" Jiang Li looked strange.
“It’s natural.”
"...Just listen to me and change your face." Jiang Li is an expert in this area and has rich experience.
The First Emperor readily accepted Jiang Li's suggestion.
The two came to the Great Zhou Territory only after they changed their appearance.
Seeing a vendor carrying candied haws for sale, the First Emperor played the role of a host and waved, saying, "Give me two strings of candied haws."
The vendor gave Chu Di and Jiang Li a string each, and waited anxiously for Chu Di to pay.
"I eat your food to give you face, and you dare to ask for money..."
When the first emperor was talking to Jiang Li, he referred to himself as "I", and when talking to others, he used "I".
Jiang Li pushed Chudi away, gave the vendor money, and explained: "I'm sorry, my brother is not very smart, how can I eat without paying."
The vendor nodded and kindly reminded him, "Then tell your brother to be careful and not to call himself 'I'. This will cost you your head."
"Of course, of course."
The First Emperor snorted coldly.
