"I almost believed it." Wang Han nodded, as if he really did believe it.
Li Sisi: "..."
Li Tiezhu: "..."
The two were at a loss for words. Wang Han absolutely did not believe what they said, but what they said was absolutely true. However, Li Sisi omitted one thing: the people in their village were all tomb keepers for generations. As for who they were keeping the tombs for, when it started, and where the tombs were located, she did not know, and even if she did, she would not say. Li Tiezhu, on the other hand, was definitely not the type to know these things.
"Let's go, let's find a place to stay first," Wang Han said. As for what the two were hiding, Wang Han didn't care.

That night, Wang Han and the other three found a hotel using their identification cards and went back to their rooms to rest.
After Anna entered the room, she immediately started searching on the hotel room's computer.
"Eastern Japan." Anna typed the two characters "Eastern Japan" into the computer, but unfortunately no results popped up, nor any similar ones.
"It's impossible that there weren't any. Judging from Wang Han's appearance, those two countries or regions existed during his time." After searching for a while, Anna still couldn't find a single word about Japan. She frowned. She typed "Yamato people" into the computer, but still got no results.
'The He clan.' After thinking for a moment, Anna removed the word 'big,' and this time there was finally a result.
"The He people, one of the ethnic groups that disappeared from history, appeared about 2,200 years ago and perished in the era with the fewest records, about 1,700 to 1,800 years ago. In 1998, archaeologists searched for relics in a province based on the myths and legends of the First Emperor. They were also the ethnic group that appeared for the shortest time, left the fewest traces, perished the fastest and most thoroughly. It is very likely that they were wiped out by the Han Chinese."
"From 1,700 to 2,200 years." Anna frowned and looked at the second message.
According to mythology, the He people were originally Han Chinese who were sent by Qin Shi Huang, led by Xu Fu, a powerful general, to find the way to immortality. Because they failed to find the way to immortality, they were afraid of being killed upon their return and stayed in Yitiaoshi Province, and later became the He people.
"It's impossible for Qin Shi Huang to send people to Yitiaoshi Province to search for the elixir of immortality. Even if he did, he would have changed the name first. In other words, during Qin Shi Huang's time, Yitiaoshi Province was not this disgusting name. It was very likely what Wang Han referred to as Dongying or Goryeo."
“This time period is too long, and there are very few records for this period, so it cannot be confirmed. Let’s look at Goryeo.” Anna continued to type the three words “Goryeo” into the computer.
"The Goryeo Kingdom, whose emergence period is unknown, was once a vassal state of the Chinese nation. It was destroyed in the period between 1700 and 1800, when records are scarce. The cause of its destruction is unknown, but it is speculated that it was destroyed by the Chinese nation."
"The Dwarf Gang, an extinct ethnic group of the Goryeo Kingdom, appeared in an unknown period and perished between 1800 and 1700, a time with the fewest records. The cause of their extinction is unknown, but it is speculated that they were wiped out by the Han Chinese."
"Xu Fu, the national advisor of the Qin state, was a powerful figure in the Investiture of the Gods. He was proficient in the Five Elements and was later dispatched by Qin Shi Huang to find the way to immortality."
"It seems that Wang Han is very likely Xu Fu, whom Qin Shi Huang sent to find the elixir of immortality. He is also proficient in the five elements and has a youthful appearance. He took the elixir of immortality, so he has lived to this day. However, he fell into a deep sleep or was trapped for unknown reasons until now. Moreover, Wang Han is at least a national-level ability user, and he is hiding something. It is not impossible that he is a god-level expert. In that era, he would not have known about the Marquis of Dingshan." Looking at the last piece of information, Anna finally had a guess in her heart. All the information pointed to Wang Han's identity as Xu Fu.
————————
"Damn it." On the other side, Wang Han, back in his room, also searched for 'Chinese history' on his computer. Looking at the information displayed on the screen, he couldn't help but swear. Anna probably hadn't expected that Wang Han, this ancient person, would actually know how to use a computer, and be so familiar with it.
"Is this Chinese history or world war history?" Looking at the data on the computer, Wang Han even wanted to use the Impure World Reincarnation technique to resurrect his former subordinates one by one, then interrogate them about what they had done, and praise them in the process. Chinese history is practically a history of global aggression; it's about invading one country, annihilating another, and then seizing their land, property, and resources. Over the past two thousand years, thousands of nations around the world have been directly or indirectly destroyed by China.
Throughout history, no fewer than a thousand countries were directly destroyed by China, and the number indirectly caused by China also exceeds a thousand—several times more than all the countries in the world today. With the exception of a few places, it can be said that China destroyed almost every country that had ever been a nation-state in the world, some even several times, more than a dozen times. In some places, a nation-state would be established only to be destroyed by China within a few years or decades. Then, just when China weakened, another nation-state would be established, only to be destroyed again when China became strong. For example, the Netherlands was destroyed by China no fewer than ten times, requiring the united efforts of nations and peoples worldwide to resist on several occasions.
At its greatest extent, recorded, China encompassed nearly half the world's landmass and dominated all the seas. Even at its smallest point, three hundred years ago, it still occupied a quarter of the world's territory. Three hundred years ago, China launched another full-scale war to unify the world, but failed, suffering severe damage. This prompted a united counter-offensive from other nations, resulting in the loss of vast territories, leaving only the borders shown on the current map. Afterwards, China focused on recuperation until the end of the feudal system. More than sixty years ago, China participated in a world war, raising the alarm of all nations. Ultimately, these nations were forced to enact various restrictions on war against this powerful nation, including provisions for humane treatment of prisoners of war, prohibition against harming innocent civilians, prohibition against the annihilation of surrendered states, and prohibition against the annexation of land. Then, thirty years ago, all nations jointly signed a treaty to cease all wars.
"The history of China is a history of Chinese aggression." Upon reaching the end, Wang Han could only sigh in this way. It's insane.
