Lin Zhongtian's calm demeanor made Zhao Lihe feel somewhat helpless.

He couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Brother Lin, although we are from the same hometown, this is the first time we meet. Is it really okay for you to reveal all your secrets to me?"

Lin Zhongtian laughed: "What are you thinking about? What can't you say? Do you think I'm one of those online novel protagonists who is timid and dare not show my true strength?"

If you like to hide some secrets, that will only happen when you lack strength.

Lin Zhongtian owns an entire virtual space gap. His consciousness is as vast as the ocean, and the spatial power he possesses is as god-like as a demon.

With such powerful strength as a backing, it would not be a big deal to just reveal the existence of the gray fog energy, or even tell Zhao Lihe that he owned an entire void gap.

The main reason why Lin Zhongtian did not speak directly was that he was afraid of scaring this fellow villager.

After all, an ordinary super-powered person is more acceptable than a demon who controls the entire dimension.

"Besides, even if I tell it, so what? How do you know whether what I said is true or not?"

"this……"

Zhao Lihe was speechless.

Lin Zhongtian laughed: "Okay, no more jokes. From your first words last night, I knew you were not a bad person. People who are homesick are always better than those who are heartless. And you said you were a soldier..."

At this point, Lin Zhongtian paused, then asked with a smile: "Do you know why I came to the Heavenly Prison to see you?"

Zhao Lihe thought for a moment and said with a wry smile: "It must be because of Ding Xiu, right?"

Lin Zhongtian smiled and nodded: "That's right."

Zhao Lihe sighed and said, "Brother Lin, since you already know that this world is the world of "Blade of the Assassin", then you will definitely go to meet the characters in the movie. Ding Xiu is the most powerful and the most popular, so you will definitely not miss him. However, the plot of this world has been changed by me. Once you meet Ding Xiu, you will naturally know of my existence."

Lin Zhongtian applauded and said, "As expected, he is a powerful figure who founded the Tongmenghui."

Zhao Lihe laughed at himself and shook his head: "Brother Lin, don't flatter me. If I were really a powerful person, how could I be tricked by these ancients and fall into this situation now..."

Zhao Lihe turned sideways and said seriously, "As for how I ended up in this situation, it's a long story. If you want to hear it, Brother Lin, I'll make a pot of hot tea, and we can talk while we drink."

"OK!"

Lin Zhongtian agreed with a smile, and found it more and more interesting.

Zhao Lihe made a pot of hot tea and sat on the stone bench in the yard with Lin Zhongtian. While drinking tea, he told his story.

Unlike Lin Zhongtian, Zhao Lihe's soul traveled to this world and he grew up in this world.

When he just opened his eyes, Zhao Lihe saw the dilapidated delivery room in front of him and immediately realized that his family conditions might not be good. But he soon realized from the surrounding environment that he had returned to the past and might have been born in a remote and impoverished mountainous area.

Therefore, when he was an infant, Zhao Lihe began to constantly recall the World Cup he had stayed up late to watch in his previous life, intending to contribute to his family's class transition in the fastest and easiest way.

But later he discovered that he had indeed returned to the past, but he went a little far back and came directly to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhao Lihe felt a little desperate at first. After all, he had adapted to the convenient modern life. It was somewhat unacceptable for him to return to the feudal dynasty era when men farmed and women weaved.

However, now that he had come here, Zhao Lihe could only cheer himself up and start recalling the knowledge in his mind, trying to find some useful knowledge to help himself survive in this world.

He is also a modern young man who has read quite a few time-travel novels and knows some necessary knowledge about time travel.

With this knowledge, it will definitely not be a problem to make a fortune in this era.

But considering the status of merchants in the Ming Dynasty, it is more reliable to find a way to enter the officialdom.

To this end, Zhao Lihe thought about it for a long time, made many plans, and racked his brains to write out several poems of later generations, intending to earn himself the title of a child prodigy by the age of five.

But in the end, all these plans came to nothing.

Because when he was five years old, he learned a piece of news.

——He is actually a descendant of Qi’s army!

And it's not just him. Those familiar faces that he has been used to seeing since he was a child are basically the surviving families of the Qi family army.

These people have been living in seclusion here since the Jizhou mutiny that year, and have not cared about worldly affairs.

Many people even swore that they would no longer be loyal to the Ming emperor.

Zhao Lihe's parents are among them.

After hearing the news, Zhao Lihe finally understood why his parents and the old teacher in the private school had such complicated looks in their eyes after he showed great talent for reading at the age of five.

There was no way out. The blood feud could not be forgotten. Zhao Lihe could only abandon these unnecessary fantasies and start focusing on the details in front of him, using his knowledge to help his fellow countrymen become prosperous.

But soon, things took a turn for the better.

A group of people came to this secluded village, brought a lot of goods, and gave gifts to every household.

The villagers did not appreciate such friendly and even flattering behavior. When it was Zhao Lihe's turn, his father even pulled out his long-treasured Miao Dao and angrily drove the group of people out of the house.

Zhao Lihe was very curious about this, so he sneaked out to interact with the group of people, and only then did he learn their identities.

It turned out that they were also descendants of Qi's army, but unlike the villagers who chose to stay away from the world and no longer be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, these people chose another path.

They forgot the blood feud of the past and returned to the Ming Dynasty to serve the emperor.

The other descendants of Qi's army in the village thought they were traitors and naturally didn't look at them well.

Perhaps he was awakened by the scolding from the villagers who were also descendants of Qi's army, and when everyone left, one person stayed behind.

His name is Ding Zhongwei.

When Zhao Lihe first heard the name, he didn't react.

But later, Ding Zhongwei left for a while and returned to the village with a group of children.

These children were descendants of the Qi family army who had lost their parents. After being adopted by Ding Zhongwei, they all changed their surnames to Ding.

Among them was a girl who was one year younger than Zhao Lihe. Her name was Ding Baiying.

Ever since he knew Ding Baiying's name, Zhao Lihe has been feeling unwell.

He originally thought that he had just traveled through time, but he didn't expect that he had traveled directly to another world, and that was the world of the movie "The Blade of the Assassin".

But no matter what, life must go on.

Zhao Lihe thought about it for only one day, then he decisively ran to Ding Zhongwei's house and said that he wanted to become his disciple.

There was no way. The impression left on him by Ding Xiu and Ding Baiying in the movie was too deep.

Since he had the opportunity to become their fellow disciple and learn their martial arts, Zhao Lihe naturally had to seize it.

So, Zhao Lihe naturally became Ding Zhongwei's apprentice.

Joining him as Ding Zhongwei's disciple were the young children in the village who had long been impressed by Zhao Lihe.

In this regard, Ding Zhongwei accepted everyone who came, as long as they were descendants of the Qi family army, he would gladly accept them.
