Chapter 161 The First Emperor's Reign



When Li Mu found Chen Siqi and the other two, they were still praying in the temple.

I saw three people with their hands folded together, facing a huge Buddha statue, squinting their eyes and muttering something in their mouths, but they looked very sincere.

"Are you ready? Let's go!" Li Mu shouted to the three people.

"Oh, right away!" Chen Siqi replied, then quickened her speaking pace, finished her words in a few seconds, and walked out with Han Mengjie and her sister.

"Are we going down the mountain now?" Chen Siqi asked.

"Well, let's go to the next stop!" Li Mu said lightly.

"Okay! Alas, there's really not much fun here. There's no one like Master Qi or Master Zhao to beat!" Chen Siqi said.

Then they walked down the mountain.

After returning to the RV, Chen Siqi asked Li Mu: "Brother, do you think there are really Buddhas in this world?"

"It doesn't matter whether there is a Buddha or not, but you must remember that it is better to rely on yourself than on others. As long as you are strong, you are a Buddha and an immortal. No one will help a stranger for no reason unless he has intentions towards you, not to mention so many people in this world." Li Mu said.

"So is it there or not?" Chen Siqi asked puzzled.

Li Mu did not answer her again.

Chen Siqi scratched her head and murmured, "Then my wish today was in vain?"

"Sister Siqi, what wish did you make? You seem mysterious!" Lulu asked curiously.

"Don't ask questions, little kid!" Chen Siqi glared at Lulu.

After a night's rest, everyone went to the third stop, Huashan. When they arrived at Huashan, Li Mu still did not feel the breath of the laws of the Tao.

While climbing the mountain, Chen Siqi and the other two were so frightened by the steepness of Mount Tai that they screamed all the way.

Li Mu was speechless. Han Mengjie and her sister were fine, but you, Chen Siqi, are at least a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building and can fly with a sword. How could you be scared by this?

In response to this, Chen Siqi said that she did it for the atmosphere, but no one knows whether what she said is true.

Similarly, after reaching the top of the mountain, Li Mu and Li Yunxi went to visit the Huashan Sect, while Chen Siqi took out Xiaobai and started to demonstrate.

After showing the dragon soul token, the head of Huashan Sect warmly received Li Mu. Unlike the Taishan Sect's economy being controlled by the grand elder's son, a businessman outside the sect, and the Songshan Sect being squeezed out by many temples, Huashan's tourism income and many other industries are still firmly controlled by the Huashan Sect.

Therefore, the decoration inside the Huashan Sect was exceptionally luxurious, and even the tea served to Li Mu was much more high-end. However, just like the Songshan Sect, Li Mu still did not get any useful information from the Huashan Sect.

After bidding farewell to the leader of Huashan Sect with a little disappointment, Li Mu and Li Yunxi lost the mood to have fun and went straight back to the RV to wait for Chen Siqi and the other two.

Without Li Mu's urging, Chen Siqi and the other two had a great time, and they didn't go down the mountain slowly until the next afternoon.

It is worth mentioning that when Chen Siqi was dancing with a sword on the mountain, she attracted the attention of the staff, and her Xiaobai was almost taken away. Fortunately, she finally took out her Dragon Soul Token and handed it to the patrolling disciples of Huashan Sect for inspection, which cleared up the misunderstanding.

After returning to the RV, Lulu told Li Mu and Chen Siqi about this incident. Li Mu was helpless and said to Chen Siqi: "Don't be so high-profile in the future!"

"What are you afraid of? We have proof!" Chen Siqi curled her lips.

Then Chen Siqi said to Lulu: "Okay, Lulu, you are so bold that you dare to sue me!" Then she started to play with Lulu.

Han Mengjie smiled bitterly and continued, "Should we go to Hengshan next?"

"Wait, let me look at the map!" Chen Siqi stopped playing and took out the map to study it carefully. Then his eyes lit up and he said, "We're already at Huashan, how can we not go to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor? Let's go to the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor first. It's not far from here anyway!"

Han Mengjie and her sister's eyes also lit up and they looked at Li Mu.

Li Mu nodded slightly. He was still somewhat curious about the First Emperor. When he was in school, he admired this emperor very much. And through conversations with Saint Yu, he learned more secrets unknown to the world.

The First Emperor was named Gao Zheng, also a descendant of Yu Sheng Gao Wen Ming, and a very outstanding person. However, he was very dissatisfied with the practices of the ancient powerful people. In today's terms, he would be an extremist of the Tiandi Pavilion at that time.

In order to resist the ancient power, he changed the name of the country directly after he inherited the throne of Daxia, changing Daxia to Daqin and calling himself the first emperor. He then implemented a series of reform measures and vigorously supported alchemists, that is, practitioners of the truth.

Under his leadership, Daqin actually destroyed a tripod that suppressed a crack, and for a time a lot of spiritual energy leaked from the small fairyland to the earth. Under his rule, the culture of cultivating truth in Daqin became more and more popular. Even with the increase of the earth's spiritual energy, the laws of heaven and earth set up by the ancient powers could no longer be suppressed. Many Jindan and even Yuanying stage cultivators were not affected by the laws of heaven and earth. For example, Emperor Qin Shi Huangdi had cultivated to the middle stage of Yuanying, and there was a tendency for him to recover to the power of ancient times.

When the Qin Dynasty was about to destroy the second tripod, it aroused the dissatisfaction of the powerful. After all, this was their strategy. How could they watch the government destroy it? In addition, the government was too impatient. Those cultivators were not restrained accordingly. Some cultivators killed innocent people everywhere, causing many casualties among the civilians. And those reform measures were too hasty, which further increased the burden on the people. For a while, the people were miserable.

Therefore, Yu Sheng had to arrest Gao Zheng and bring him to the Lesser Immortal Realm, and arranged for him to fake his death. Without Gao Zheng's leadership, the Great Qin soon fell into chaos. The powerful people in the Lesser Immortal Realm added fuel to the fire, and the tripod destroyed by Gao Zheng was repaired by the powerful people. The powerful Great Qin collapsed, and the Gao family re-established the country and restored the name of the Great Xia, which has continued to this day.

Although the Qin Dynasty was destroyed, many of the reforms established by Emperor Gaozu were retained by the later Xia Dynasty, which is also a great achievement.

After the trial, Ding Zheng was imprisoned in the Lesser Immortal Realm for 2000 years. He was not free until 200 years ago. Then Ding Zheng traveled around the Lesser Immortal Realm and never appeared again. Even Yu Sheng didn't know where he went. Yu Sheng even suspected that the current Tiandi Pavilion was created by Ding Zheng. Not only did he think so, but many other powerful people also thought so.

However, after more than 2,000 years, the times have changed, and everyone's views have also changed. Many powerful people have also wavered in their original ideas. There are also many powerful people and high-level people in the small fairy world who support the unification of the two worlds. Therefore, no one investigates who is the person behind the Tiandi Pavilion. It is no longer important.

Li Mu had a vague feeling that there were unknown secrets in Gao Zheng's tomb. He felt that his trip would not be in vain, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
