Dawei,
Yunshan Lin Jiang is back, and he brought back some gold and silver, as well as some porcelain, etc. Otherwise, he would be a pauper again when he wakes up next time. He can't borrow money from the rich every time. This is immoral. Lin Jiang is also afraid that he will become a rich man one day and be borrowed by others. This is called the law of nature.
So he will have money to use when he wakes up next time. Those porcelains may become antiques and sell for some money.
"A thousand years of sleep is not a big deal. Let's throw the dice. One point means a hundred years. Let's see how long I will sleep this time."
Lin Jiang took out five sieves, made of pure gold, and threw them out casually. Even if he threw a leopard, it would only be three thousand years.
"Eighteen points, eighteen hundred years, then eighteen hundred years."
Lin Jiang took a look at the points on the dice. Eighteen points means I will sleep for eighteen hundred years this time. When I wake up, it will be more than three thousand eight hundred years in the Xia calendar.
After getting ready, Lin Jiang fell asleep beautifully, as if he was sleeping normally.
······
"Again, the world has changed dramatically."
Somewhere in the Yunzhong Mountains, Lin Jiang stood in a pile of ruins. The last time he woke up, he exchanged his prey for a set of clothes here, but this time, this village has been abandoned for who knows how long, even the ruins are almost gone, let alone living people.
One thousand eight hundred years is enough to change the world.
It's a pity that Lin Jiang still didn't feel the revival of spiritual energy, which made him very disappointed.
Sometimes, Lin Jiang even doubted whether the Heavenly Dao was asleep or dead, and the spiritual energy would never be revived.
Lin Jiang didn't harm wild animals anymore, and went straight down the mountain. Most of the villages and towns in his memory disappeared, and even the rivers were changed.
After finally finding a village, Lin Jiang touched two sets of clothes and left a piece of silver for the owner.
After finding the official road, he found it was very dilapidated. It was unknown how long it had not been repaired. There were very few travelers on the road. Lin Jiang observed their complexions and found that they were not as ruddy as the last time they woke up. Most of them had pale faces, and some were even a little swollen.
Lin Jiang avoided the crowd and found a city all the way. After blending into it, he found a bookstore as usual and bought a few history books to read.
Through the history books, Lin Jiang knew that the Great Wei was gone. In the 234th year of the Wei calendar, the young and strong Emperor Wei suddenly died. He failed to establish a crown prince, so something similar to the Nine Dragons Fighting for the Crown Prince occurred. The newly appointed Emperor Wei relied on his relatives to sit on the throne, so he had to rely on his relatives to control the court, but this also led to the emergence of powerful ministers. The powerful ministers were domineering, and the local bosses were dissatisfied. Rebellions broke out frequently. After persisting for decades, the Wei Kingdom changed dynasties.
The new dynasty was named Yan, and it lasted for 680 years. At the end of the Yan Dynasty, many heroes emerged and Great Yan split into more than 30 forces, and a great war lasted for 300 years. At the same time, the small countries in the eastern part of Hezhou and the southeast of Bingzhou also completed the unification, and even occupied a lot of the original territory of Great Yan. Under
this strong external pressure, the countries once again returned to unification and named the country Chen. When the Chen Kingdom was first established, people's livelihood was in decline. The 300 years of chaos reduced the population within the Chen Kingdom by two-thirds, and the scene of no cockcrows for thousands of miles appeared again. The
Liao Kingdom, a great power in the north, was at its peak at this time, so the Liao Kingdom began to invade the south. The Chen Kingdom did not care about recuperation and fought bloody battles with the Liao Kingdom, but was ultimately no match.
Chen State asked for help from Xian State, but was rejected, because the situation in Xian State was different at this time. Although the name of Xian State did not change, the royal family had changed several times in the past thousand years, which was a bit like the pattern of daily life. In the past thousand years, Xian State was in danger many times and asked for help from the former Wei, Yan and other countries, but they were all rejected.
Because the southern dynasties at that time were either in decline or in war, and they were unable to resist. On the contrary, the newly rising Liao State was also threatened by the monster, and they were comrades-in-arms.
Without external reinforcements, Chen State could only bear humiliation and pay tribute to Liao State, cede land and pay compensation, and marry into the Liao State. This lasted for more than a hundred years. Chen State took advantage of the civil strife in Liao State to turn the tables in one fell swoop, recover the once occupied territory, and force Liao State to pay tribute and cede land in return.
When the Chen Kingdom lasted for 600 years, it was already on the decline. People thought it was another dynasty change, but something unexpected happened. The demon invaded the south again and broke through the defense line of the Xian Kingdom at Qingjiang, completely destroying the Xian Kingdom.
The Xian Kingdom persisted for three years after the defense line of Qingjiang was broken. During these three years, the Xian Kingdom asked for help from the Chen Kingdom and the Zhou Dynasty in the east. However, the Zhou Dynasty had just ended the dynasty change and the people's livelihood was in decline, so it directly refused.
The State of Chen wanted to rescue, but at this time, the State of Chen was already at the end of its dynasty, and internal conflicts were acute. Before the State
of Chen could mobilize, the Immortal State was gone, and then the State of Chen was gone. The capital of the State of Chen was built in the former Hezhou area, not far from the border. The intention was that the emperor would guard the country's gate to resist the once powerful Liao State. The court at that time felt that the Immortal State was so large that it would take a long time for the demons to digest it after annexing it. Unexpectedly, the demons did not do as they thought. They sent out elite troops to directly destroy the capital of the State of Chen, and then burned, killed and looted everywhere.
The direct royal family of the State of Chen was gone, but there were also many royal families who were away from home. These princes with little real power were controlled by local warlords, and each of them said that they had inherited the great succession of the State of Chen. The word chaos could no longer be used to describe it.
········
"Is this the script of the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China or the script of the Southern Ming Dynasty?"
After reading the history book, Lin Jiang was numb. He regretted why he had to sleep for 1,800 years. If it had been a hundred years earlier, perhaps he could have prevented this from happening.
"It's too late to regret. The most important thing for now is to understand the situation first, and then completely destroy the demons. Otherwise, given the current situation of warlords fighting each other, the demons will go south again and destroy the Chinese civilization."
Lin Jiang took a deep breath. It was too late to regret. Lin Jiang decided to come out again.
Half a month later, Lin Jiang came to Zhongzhou. Zhongzhou was once the capital of Wei State and the most prosperous region in the world. After the fall of Wei State, Zhongzhou was also a wasteland, but it has been rebuilt on this basis. After the establishment of Chen State
, more than a dozen idle princes were enfeoffed in Zhongzhou. The highest-ranking King of Chu was a hereditary prince, but the princes of Chen State had no real power and could only enjoy wealth and glory. After the fall of the capital of Chen State, King Chu ascended the throne and proclaimed himself the emperor of Chen State, but everyone in Zhongzhou knew that the emperor of Chen State was a puppet, and all power was controlled by the aristocratic families headed by Wang Lun.
Arriving at Zhongzhou City, Lin Jiang did not act rashly, but continued to inquire about the news. For this purpose, Lin Jiang patronized dozens of wealthy families and borrowed a lot of money.
After three months of inquiries, Lin Jiang learned a lot of new situations. The first one was that the fairy country was not completely destroyed, and there were still people resisting.
At the beginning, the monster broke the defense line of the fairy country from Qingjiang, and then marched straight into the capital of the fairy country, but the Great Wall Corps in the west of the fairy country was still there. They relied on the mountains and resisted step by step, and have not been taken down by the monsters so far. The other part of the troops was the troops along the Qingjiang River. The Qingjiang River was tens of thousands of miles long, and there were many troops. The monsters had no time to destroy them, so they went south along the Qingjiang River and established themselves in the area of the great swamps of Bingzhou. They received support from the current Zhou Dynasty, and the monsters were unable to destroy them.
The second is about the monsters. It is true that the monsters were once very powerful, but the monsters once had a very fatal drawback, that is, the risk of female monsters giving birth is extremely high, almost reaching a one-to-one ratio, that is, one female monster dies for every birth.
So the way the monsters solved this problem at first was to abduct human women and use them to give birth to children for them. Anyway, human women were not human in their eyes.
This method has been very good, allowing the monsters to expand all the way from the extreme north of Beizhou until they were blocked by Qingzhou. This block lasted for thousands of years. For thousands of years, the monsters could not abduct human women on a large scale, and their own inheritance became very dangerous.
However, the monsters themselves also have civilizations. They are also constantly evolving and learning. In terms of their own evolution, they constantly eliminate those strange monsters, making monsters and humans more and more similar, only retaining their bloodline, so that part of the monster tribe can be completely inherited. On
the other hand, the monsters also have several peerless geniuses. After breaking through the human territory, they no longer kill at will, but retain craftsmen, books and other things, learn from the human race, and make their technology advance by leaps and bounds, especially medical technology, which is better than Chen and Zhou. In this way, the monsters have completely solved the problem of monster breeding, and the number of monsters has increased rapidly.
"The bodies of monsters are originally stronger than those of humans, and now they are good at learning, so could it be that monsters are the chosen ones of heaven?"
After reading these materials, Lin Jiang was worried. Compared with the physical fitness of ordinary monsters and ordinary humans, monsters have too much advantage. Now monsters have learned from humans in all aspects, and their technology and system are almost the same as those of humans. The advantages of humans have disappeared. No matter how you look at it, monsters are the race favored by heaven.
"Hardships and difficulties make you successful. If I don't kneel, no one else is allowed to kneel."
But soon, Lin Jiang decided to continue to fight to the end. Humans are the spirits of all things, and monsters are nothing. He, Lin Jiang, is the first one who is not convinced.
This time when he wakes up, Lin Jiang's mission is to tell the world that kneeling is not allowed.
