Chapter 689 Huo Qubing
At that moment, the mantra was activated, and before Huo Qubing, who was kneeling below, could react, his attribute panel had already unfolded in front of Zhou Xu...
Name: Huo Qubing Gender: Male Age: 18 Ethnicity: Human
Status: congenital deficiency, deficiency of Qi and blood, weakness, illness, hunger
Truth: None Talent: A talent that is envied by heaven: He has a talent that can assist the king and support the country.
Bravery: ★☆
Intelligence: ★★☆☆☆ Spirit: ★★★☆
Endurance: ★☆
Command: ★☆☆ When Zhou Xu saw the long string of negative BUFFs on Huo Qubing's status bar, his eyelids twitched twice.
[Good fellow, up to now, I have never seen anyone with more negative buffs stacked than you.]
But as his eyes moved down, after seeing the other party's talent, and then seeing the combined attributes of the five-star potential intelligence and the four-star potential spirit, Zhou Xu secretly took a deep breath and forced himself to suppress the urge to jump up from the chair.
【What the hell! What the hell! ! ! 】
At this moment, Zhou Xu's mind was filled with a series of "Fuck!"
He felt that he had made a fortune just by being able to catch a white butcher during this expedition. He was so happy that he would even wake up laughing in his dreams.
Although Huo Qubing's position is different from what he thought, Zhou Xu thinks that his value is still higher than Bai Tu's for now! At least for him, Huo Qubing's value is much greater than Bai Tu's.
Even though Bai Tu was a skilled general at conquering cities and territories, to be honest, the lineup of generals under his command was quite rich. Although he did not have any five-star golden legends, he still had several four-star purple epics.
Normally speaking, it is quite sufficient.
On the other hand, Huo Qubing had no real talents in internal affairs, not even a three-star one.
Who could have thought that he would get such a top-notch result!
At this moment, in front of Huo Qubing, Zhou Xu's face was tense, and he thought about all the sad things he had encountered in his two lives, but he still felt that the corners of his mouth were harder to suppress than AK.
After keeping a straight face and adjusting his emotions internally, Zhou Xu, who felt a little relieved, quickly realized that he shouldn't be happy too soon.
Don't forget, he is a talented person who can assist the king, but he has a lot of negative BUFFs! Although he has survived the most dangerous childhood, he still looks very weak, not only thin, but also short. He is obviously 18 years old, but his height is probably only about 1.6 meters. If he is not careful, he may die.
"Huo Qubing, are you willing to serve me?"
Huo Qubing was stunned when faced with the olive branch that Zhou Xu suddenly extended to him.
He never imagined that the king in front of him, who looked like a god from heaven, would actually want to recruit him.
You know, in his situation, he basically can't do any work. In order to support himself, he has looked for a job, but no one wants him.
Finally, he had no choice but to set up a small stall on the street and make a living by writing letters for people.
This also made Huo Qubing's entire mental state seem a little dazed when facing Zhou Xu's recruitment.
At this moment, looking at the other party's dazed expression, Zhou Xu couldn't help but chuckle, which made Huo Qubing suddenly come back to his senses and then hurriedly apologize.
"I have lost my temper. Please forgive me, Your Majesty! I am deeply grateful for your favor, but I am weak and sick, I am afraid..."
Before Huo Qubing could finish his words, Zhou Xu raised his hand to interrupt him.
"Don't say so much nonsense, just tell me directly whether you are willing to work for me or not."
As he spoke, Zhou Xu looked directly at Huo Qubing with an indescribable seriousness in his eyes, which made Huo Qubing clearly realize that the person in front of him was not joking with him.
The unprecedented situation made Huo Qubing take a deep breath before he could calm himself down.
Then, as if he had made up his mind, he bowed deeply towards Zhou Xu.
"I, Huo Qubing, am willing to die for the king!"
“Hahahaha! Good!!”
Amidst loud laughter, Zhou Xu stood up and personally helped Huo Qubing up from the ground.
"You are weak and the ground is too cold, so don't kneel down. Find a chair and sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the seat."
Things had come to this point, Huo Qubing no longer refused and honestly found a chair and sat down.
Afterwards, Zhou Xu casually chatted with him about the Han Dynasty. Although the Han Dynasty was already a thing of the past, knowing a little about it would help him understand the history here.
According to Huo Qubing's account, a total of fifty-one years have passed since the founding of the Han Dynasty, and three generations of emperors have passed.
The reign of the founding emperor was the most prosperous time for the Han Dynasty. Unfortunately, fate played a trick on him and he died of a serious illness at the age of 42.
The incident happened suddenly. Although the founding emperor had written a will and appointed the crown prince as the new emperor, internal fighting still broke out among the other princes for the throne.
Eventually the crown prince died, and the third prince ascended the throne and became emperor.
At that time, the princes fought fiercely for the throne, involving many people and hurting the foundation of the country, which also led the Han Dynasty to a downward path.
However, the third prince died of illness after only nine years in office, and was succeeded by his eldest son, who was the last emperor of the Han Dynasty and also the most incompetent emperor of the Han Dynasty.
During his reign, he ignored state affairs and indulged in enjoyment, which led to the gradual decline of the Han Dynasty's national strength.
Finally, he was defeated and annexed by Yan Sheng, who had not yet proclaimed himself the First Emperor, who provoked a war against him.
Afterwards, Zhou Xu learned about the situation of other countries in this world from Huo Qubing.
Although Huo Qubing's understanding of other countries was not as good as that of the Han Dynasty, he had read a lot of books and could still give a general idea.
Simply put, compared with their Great Zhou, the development history of various countries in this world is unexpectedly long.
After all, only about six or seven years have passed since he was summoned. If calculated based on the time of the founding of the country, it would be even shorter. Naturally, it cannot be compared with those countries here that have developed for dozens or nearly a hundred years.
However, what Zhou Xu did not expect was that most of the God-chosen emperors of these countries were short-lived. The longest-lived one only lived to the age of 45.
This made Zhou Xu have more thoughts in his mind.
[It depends on the situation. I am afraid that it is because the living conditions in this world are too poor, and the medical level is too low, which greatly affects their life expectancy. If we calculate it based on the age of 40 or 50, then wouldn’t I have already lived half of my life? ]
Thinking of this, Zhou Xu couldn't help but shudder. He didn't want to die so early.
[No, no, it seems that I still need to pay attention to my health and exercise more often in the future. ]
