I am already immortal, why should I ascend to become an immortal?

Chapter 289 The untasted peach blossom cake, Xiao Luoyang's sudden accident; Tang Qianyan digs his own grave

"The Emperor's Seal?"

Looking at the things on the table, Jin Chan frowned instantly.

"This is fake. Like the Golden Phoenix Seal on King Tang and the Black Water Dragon Seal in your hand, I made them all using the Divine Machine Technique."

Mohist school was born in the same era as the first emperor Lin Yao.

He was also Lin Yao's most capable partner.

However, with Lin Yao's fake death, the Mohist school was divided into three factions: Mo Wu, Mo Zheng and Shen Ji during the thousand years of changes.

Mo Wu and Mo Zheng had left Luoyang hundreds of years ago, and only the Shenji Sect remained loyal to the imperial dynasty.

Lin Yuxi is the last disciple of the Shenji Sect.

However, times have changed, and the Shenji Sect's influence and reputation are no longer as great as before.

The wooden kite, the half-finished Central Plains unique weapon, and the fake Golden Phoenix Seal and Black Water Dragon Seal were all made by Lin Yuxi and the Shenji Sect.

"The reason why your army cannot attack is because our Luoyang City's defenders all have four unique weapons from the Central Plains. However, the most important thing is the Emperor's Seal. Although it is not as good as mine, it also has some skills to restore order."

During the conversation, Lin Yuxi seemed not to want to stay here any longer and pushed open the gate.

He took Jin Chan to visit Luoyang City.

"Jin Chan, I wanted to kill you and the King of Qin before. I just didn't want the people in the city to be displaced after the chaos in the world. But now I have given up. It is indeed the general trend for Qin to unify the world. I can't change it. I just hope that no matter what the final result is, the people of Luoyang can avoid war and live and work here in peace for generations."

The two were walking on the street.

When the people on the roadside saw the two people, they greeted them enthusiastically.

However, it was not a ritual between the ruler and his subjects, but just like the greetings between ordinary people.

Some elderly uncles and aunts even call Lin Yuxi "Xiao Lin".

People of the same generation mostly call her "Big Sister".

Children surrounded her, pulling at her skirts and calling her Sister Lin.

"It has been like this since my grandfather's generation. Although there is still an emperor in the Central Plains, there is only an ordinary Lin family in Luoyang."

"The people in the city don't have to pay taxes. Even I grow my own food and drink, and I have to pay for what I want."

In this way, the two of them walked and chatted.

Until you walk down a stone bridge.

After entering the busiest market in the city.

"Boss, you are such a profiteer. You want one tael of silver from me for a box of peach cakes?"

"You can eat or not, you can buy or not. If someone from outside comes in, the price will increase tenfold. This is the rule set by Xiao Lin!"

Ten meters away, there was a stall with a sign that read "Peach Blossom Pastry".

Tang Qianyan was holding a box with red carvings and started arguing with an old man in plain clothes.

"swallow?"

"Asshole ancestors?"

Jin Chan and Lin Yuxi spoke at the same time.

"Why are you here, kid?"

Jin Chan thought that this guy went to Korea to dig graves, but he didn't expect him to appear in Luoyang City.

"Hey, isn't this Brother Jin, and my cute and well-behaved granddaughter?"

"Come here quickly, help me negotiate the price. How dare you ask me for one tael of silver for a box of peach blossom cakes? Why don't you just go and rob me!"

Tang Qianyan covered his head, because he couldn't remember which generation of his descendant Lin Yuxi was, so he just called her granddaughter.

"Humph!"

Lin Yuxi first rolled her eyes at Tang Qianyan, then reluctantly came to the old stall owner, took out a few copper coins from her arms and spoke slowly.

"Uncle Wang, these guys are my friends, just sell them to us at the original price!"

"Xiao Lin, isn't our city closed? How come there are outsiders coming in?"

The old man quietly pulled Lin Yuxi to his side, and then asked in a voice that everyone could hear.

"Uncle Wang, this is a long story, but don't worry, as long as I am here, no matter whether it is the Qin army or the Han army, they will not be able to break into the city."

"Haha, the old man believes you. You Lin family are all good people. Our Luoyang is not a place where the tyrannical Qin and Xiao Han can come and go as they please."

Leave the paving.

They came to a teahouse with fewer people. After ordering a pot of tea, the three of them sat around the table, each on one side.

"Brother Jin, this is Luoyang's unique peach blossom pastry. Give it to your little girl when you get home! Just say you bought it."

Pushing the wooden box towards Jin Chan, Tang Qianyan smiled.

Back when they were in Nanhuang Gongzi Town, the little girl once said that she wanted to taste the peach blossom pastry from Luoyang in the Central Plains. How could Jin Chan forget this?

"Okay, tell me what you're doing here?"

This guy came to Luoyang City early, definitely not just for this matter.

"Lin Yao's body!"

Tangqianyan slowly uttered five words.

"You bastard, didn't you dig up the Emperor's Mausoleum?"

Sudden.

Just hear a snap.

After Tang Qianyan finished speaking, Lin Yuxi slammed the table with both hands and stood up with an angry look on her face.

"They dug it up, including the remains of all the emperors after me."

Tang Qianyan narrowed his eyes slightly, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

"You, you, you are a traitor."

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Yuxi felt that they were somewhat inappropriate.

After all, the tomb that Tang Qianyan dug was his own, and the emperors of all dynasties who were buried in it were all his descendants. The word "treason" does not seem to be applicable to him.

"Granddaughter, do I need your permission to dig my own grave?"

"Bah, don't call me your granddaughter. I don't want to acknowledge you."

The two are dozens of generations apart, a full thousand years.

"Jin Chan, as long as your King Qin promises me that after Qin unifies the world, he will not interfere with Luoyang City, will not enslave the people in the city, and will allow it to make its own laws and currency, separate from your Great Qin, and become a small country in the heart of the Central Plains."

"If you promise me, I will open the door and surrender."

Lin Yuxi stated the conditions again.

Moreover, in her heart, neither the King of Qin nor Jin Chan had any reason to refuse such conditions. A small country could not pose any threat to the Qin Dynasty.

Otherwise, if a full-scale war really breaks out, the Qin Dynasty will also lose a lot of troops.

"impossible!"

As soon as Lin Yuxi finished speaking, Jin Chan refused without even thinking about it.

"Why? Is it necessary for you, the Great Qin, to lose soldiers and generals just to become a Luoyang city?"

"And don't forget, I still have the Emperor's Sword. Your fish belly may not be my match."

Lin Yuxi roared.

Tang Qianyan, who was standing by, immediately stood up, stretched out his hands, patted his granddaughter's shoulders, and pressed her back into the chair.

"The territory of the Central Plains will surely be unified amidst iron hoofs and passionate blood. The existence of various countries is only a temporary chaos in the long river of history. The country will not be divided, and the mountains and rivers will be forever solid. Whether it is a prosperous capital or a remote small town, they are all inseparable parts of our Great Qin."

"Let alone giving up an entire city, even giving up a village or a household is impossible."

Jin Chan's words were domineering and steady, leaving no room for any objection.

"Jin Chan, you are too arrogant. Don't forget that although my Luoyang City has only 40,000 defenders, everyone has the best soldiers in the Central Plains. Each of them is a good fighter who can fight one against a thousand. Even if your Great Qin is a fierce army, it will not be able to break through easily."

In addition to what Lin Yuxi said, she also held the Emperor's Seal and the complete Emperor's Sword.

"It's useless, granddaughter. I will take the Emperor's Sword away today, and I also have the complete Emperor's Seal."

"Even if your soldiers have semi-finished Central Plains special forces and can resist an army of 100,000, what about 300,000, 500,000, 1 million or 2 million?"

"As long as the King of Qin unifies the Central Plains and suppresses us with millions of soldiers, the small city of Luoyang will be reduced to dust in an instant." Tang Qianyan poured a cup of tea for her eldest granddaughter and spoke earnestly, as if an elder was educating a younger generation.

"Lin Yao, you bastard, you actually want to take back the Emperor's Sword?"

Lin Yuxi instantly became furious and picked up the teapot to smash it on Yan's head in the hall.

He just raised his hand to mid-air, but then fell down weakly.

"Alas, this Emperor's Sword originally belonged to you. Take it, go ahead and take it, you irresponsible fellow."

As soon as these words came out, Lin Yuxi seemed to have let go of all the energy in his body.

He sat down directly on the chair.

He picked up the teapot and poured the tea into his mouth as if he was drinking wine.

He didn't stop until the bottom of the pot was empty.

"Granddaughter, let's play and have fun, but have you prepared all the things I asked you to prepare?"

"It's ready. Some of it is in the backyard, and some of it is in the hands of the soldiers defending the city."

After drinking tea.

The three of them returned to Lin Yuxi's residence.

Come to the backyard.

The wood kite flapped its wings and lifted up the ground.

All I saw were rows of densely packed jade seals, neatly arranged horizontally on the ground.

Among them are the Black Water Dragon Seal of the Qin Dynasty, the Golden Phoenix Seal of the Tang Dynasty, the Flying Bird Seal of the Qi Dynasty, as well as the Tiger Wing Seal of the Chu State and the Emperor's Seal.
The number is at least several hundred, far more than the total number of kings in the Central Plains.

"A great granddaughter worthy of our ancestors!"

The swallow in front of the hall had golden light in his eyes and a trace of saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Jin, I think Yuxi is pretty good looking. Why don't you just force yourself to marry her and make her your concubine? Don't worry, she won't compete for your favor with that little girl."

Perhaps because he was too excited, Tang Qianyan's words left the two people behind him speechless.

"You, you old and disrespectful fellow, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Lin Yuxi's face was so red that it looked like it could bleed if pinched.

"Brother Jin, now that we have the things, let's go back."

Yan in front of the hall waved his finger, and the coffins of emperors of all dynasties fell from the sky. One of them was particularly large, and it must be Lin Yao's.

After scattering a thick layer of yellow paper talismans, the jade seals flew into the coffin obediently.

"and many more."

Jin Chan walked around the swallow in front of the hall and came in front of Lin Yuxi.

"Although I cannot promise you what you just said, I can guarantee that Luoyang City will remain the same, and the people here will continue to live as before without paying taxes, but they must live under Qin law and be governed by my Qin law."

"."

After a long silence, Lin Yuxi finally nodded.

This is the general trend. Since it cannot be changed, just go with the flow. What you have done is enough.

"By the way, remember to do this when you attack the city at noon tomorrow."

Leave Lin Yuxi's yard.

Jin Chan and Tang Qianyan climbed over the city wall and walked towards the camp.

"Where's Old White Hair?"

"He should have returned to the camp!"

"Where's the Emperor's Sword? Aren't you going to take it with you?"

"No hurry, leave it to Yuxi first. After all, I'll need it tomorrow. It won't be too late for me to get it after this."

The two chatted and returned to the camp.

And at this time.

Meng Tian, ​​Li Xin and others, as well as Han general Bao Yuan, were holding a combat meeting in the main camp.

However, when they saw Jin Chan coming back, they all stood up to greet him.

"General Jin, have you reached an agreement?"

The most anxious people here are not the Meng brothers, but Bao Yuan who has captured an army of 100,000.

I thought that destroying Luoyang City would be an easy task and would not require any effort.

But he never expected that after this trip, he would be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

"At noon tomorrow the entire army will launch a general attack. You will lead the remaining 200,000 Korean troops to attack the city from the north gate."

"Meng Yi, Meng Tian, ​​each of you will lead 150,000 Meng family troops to attack the city from the east and west sides."

"Leave the South Gate to me."

Jin Chan's appearance of having failed in the negotiation made everyone confused.

Could it be that the emperor really intends to use the power of one city to fight against the million-strong alliance of Qin and Han?

"General Jin, can we win this?"

With a 100,000-strong army captured, Bao Yuan became timid.

“Don’t worry, there are only four soldiers in Luoyang City, nearly 30,000 people are guarding the south of the city, and there are only a few thousand people at the other three gates. Could it be that the general is worried that your 200,000 troops in South Korea can’t even take down these few thousand people?”

Jin Chan's words, which were slightly mocking and contemptuous, made Bao Yuan feel suffocated as if he had been hit in the chest by a sledgehammer.

"General Jin, you are joking. I will attack the city on time tomorrow."

I was worried that there might be something fishy about the fact that Qin sent so many troops this time, but now it seems that the King of Qin was far-sighted and had long anticipated that Luoyang would be difficult to attack.

The sun hasn't set yet.

Bao Yuan led 200,000 Han troops and set out early to the north of Luoyang City.

Jin Chan brought peach blossom pastry to Xiao Luoyang's tent.

"Little girl, what do you think this is?"

Pushing aside the curtain, Jin Chan walked inside with a smile, carrying a box of peach blossom pastries.

But who knows.

Little Luoyang lay on the bed motionless, as if she didn't hear Jin Chan calling her again.

"Little girl, hurry up and get up. This is the most authentic peach blossom pastry in Luoyang City."

After calling out twice, I found that Xiao Luoyang was still lying on the bed motionless.

Only then did Jin Chan realize that something was wrong.

He only opened half of the box and immediately rushed to the bed.

"This is."

Jin Chan was speechless, his eyes full of fear. A bean-sized bead of sweat slid down his forehead, across his cheek, and dripped onto the ground.

At this time, Xiao Luoyang looked normal, but his eyes were closed.

Three golden petals appeared between the eyebrows.

Twinkling, shining with a faint light.

The hair flutters in the wind.

His entire body was covered in a light mist.

The whole person seemed ethereal and as if he did not exist in this world.

With every breath.

The mist beats like a heart.

The petals between the eyebrows flicker once.

The skin on his face also cracked into fine lines.
