Chapter 219: The outrageous operation that makes people black out
Goldfinger is very generous in some places, for example, it packages various musical instruments into the [Performance] skill for sale, but it is very stingy in some places, for example, it splits the [Four Diagnostics of Traditional Chinese Medicine] into four skills: [Look], [Smell], [Ask], and [Cut], and splits [Cheating] into eight skills: [Positive], [Lift], [Reverse], [Take off], [Wind], [Fire], [Eliminate], and [Rumor].

Unfortunately, history is also a rather stingy person.

Although there is a category called world history, there are also various small branches, which made Feng Xue, who suffers from decision-phobia, a little headache.

After all, history and medicine are different concepts. Even if you are just getting started with medicine, you have to learn all the theoretical knowledge of various diseases, prescriptions, and surgeries before you can go out, otherwise you will be taking human life lightly.

As for history, getting started is really just getting started.

The wider the choice, the less information each branch can obtain.

Just like he had bought "A General History of the World" and "A Modern History of Flower Planting" in his previous life, the difference between the two in terms of the level of detail of the events described could almost be described as worlds apart.

Feng Xue is most curious about three things in history:

First: What exactly happened at the transition between the old and new eras?

Second: How did Qingyun Country come to the point where it is now fighting on three fronts?

Third: What is the level of Hongying’s combat capability?

However, given the current situation, it seems that Feng Xue is not allowed to waste the precious opportunity to satisfy his curiosity, and he is not yet at the stage of challenging the entire Hongying alone. After a little thought, he finally chose "Modern History of Qingyun".

Tens of thousands of words of text flooded into his mind, and Feng Xue knew a passage describing Qingyun's history in recent decades.

Just as he thought, this so-called introduction was really just a very brief description. There was neither analysis and explanation from so-called experts nor any supporting evidence. It was just a chronological arrangement of various well-known events, big and small.

Fortunately, the dividing line between Qingyun and modern times is 441, the year when Feng Xue's predecessor was born. Even though this short twenty years of history is relatively brief, it is much more straightforward and detailed than the profound meanings of the Spring and Autumn Annals. After a rough glance, Feng Xue finally understood the causes and consequences.

The first thing to be clear is that in addition to the four major countries, there are also a large number of small countries that depend on the big countries. The difference between small countries and big countries does not lie in their territory, but in whether they have a creator.

Feng Xue accepted this concept very quickly. After all, before he traveled through time, his definition of a great power was also based on whether or not it had nuclear weapons.

The modern history of Qingyun is essentially the health history of the Creator.

As a symbol of the division of the Qingyun Federation into modern times, in early January of the new calendar year 441, a super-large nightmare came into reality. The previous creator fought fiercely with it, and finally eliminated it after paying the price of tens of millions of people suffering mental breakdown, a first-tier city turning into a monster, and the creator being severely damaged.

The consequences of the serious injury to the previous Creator were naturally quite serious. Economic downturn, border harassment, internal unrest...all kinds of problems came one after another. The reason was nothing more than a test of the Creator's status by foreign forces.

The stability of the Qingyun Federation also took a sharp turn for the worse from this period on. The Qingyun Coin, which was originally equivalent to the Star Ring Coin, depreciated all the way. By the time Feng Xue traveled through time, the value of the coin was less than one-tenth of its original value. Among the currencies of the four countries, it was only stronger than the Hongying Coin, which was prone to frequent natural disasters and whose economy relied entirely on wars and protection fees.

But according to the information obtained by Feng Xue, this period was still good, because the Creator would show up from time to time, but in the 457th year of the new calendar, all this changed.

The third generation creator of Qingyun ultimately failed to survive, but fortunately, the fourth creator of Qingyun, who was also the tenth creator in the world, was born soon after.

Just when Qingyun was about to be wiped out, something happened to the creator that made all Qingyun people's eyes go dark. The history books did not record what happened specifically, only that the Fantasy Dreamland had undergone drastic changes. Based on the knowledge of an expert architect and the subsequent series of events described in the history books, Feng Xue judged that the creator probably wanted to play a big game, but he didn't even succeed in embedding the rules and was backfired by the Fantasy Dreamland.

Everyone witnessed how the second creator of Hongying died. This new creator who was seeking death had not even had a chance to show his existence before he was labeled as "dead" by various countries.

Then, the whole world attacked Yun.

This world is not just about the three major powers. In the beginning, there were only small countries that were thrown out as a test, and as time went by, within just two years, it developed into a full-scale war with the participation of major powers.

However, due to the actual conditions of each country, the intensity of the war is also different.

For example, although the Shinra Empire is an empire, it was established the latest of the four countries, and the religious forces in the country are complicated and intricate, making it a nightmare-stricken area. The nearly 400-year-old creator has to spend a lot of time and energy every day to wipe out the Yajiao across the country. Shinra participated in the attack on Qingyun just to get some free money, and after grabbing a sum of money, it began to express its intention to negotiate peace with Qingyun.

It was precisely because of the precedent of Shinra that surrenderists began to appear in Qingyun. They believed that since Shinra, which was full of people, could be negotiated, then Hongying, where natural disasters were frequent, could naturally be negotiated as well.

However, whether they are from the young faction or the appeasement faction in Qingyun, their views on Xinghuan are surprisingly consistent, that is, peace talks are absolutely impossible.

……

Browsing the modern history in his mind, Feng Xue felt a black line on his forehead. Is there something wrong with the brain of this Qingyun Creator? Someone has already stepped on the landmine, how dare you step on it for the second time? Do you know what your identity means?
But after thinking about it carefully, Feng Xue sighed again. Although entry-level historical knowledge did not come with expert analysis, he could still roughly understand something.

For example, the appearance of this creator was so abrupt that there is not even any record of his relevant resume in history. In other words, this person's past as a dreamer and a shadow chaser is blank.

In addition, the timing of his appearance was too coincidental, so coincidental that it didn't seem like a normal ascension. It was hard for Feng Xue not to suspect that this was probably a trick done by the previous creator before his death.

Things like near-death kung fu transmission, rebirth through possession of another's body, and having a portable grandfather, etc.

Of course, it is also possible that Qingyun itself has a Creator cultivation plan, such as large-scale causality cultivation or something.

But no matter how this fourth-generation creator came about, it was certain that he lacked a track record as a visionary, which meant that he was basically certain to be a "Yu Wushuang" or a "Law of Cause and Effect".

People in this system often focus on their own feelings, and it is common for them to claim to be invincible. Even if you tell them that "this won't work, predecessors have failed", they may still have thoughts like "just because predecessors failed doesn't mean I can't", "predecessors? They were just mediocre people from an era before I existed".

As for why Xinghuan was the only one in Qingyun who was unwilling to negotiate, the book did not explain this. It should not be a modern reason. Feng Xue thought that either something happened in ancient times, or there were some lessons learned in the old times?

"Indeed, people should learn from history!" Feng Xue shook his head, dispelled the complicated thoughts in his mind, and warned himself not to be too self-righteous. Then he turned his attention back to the next node.

Looking at that [Unexpected Encounter], Feng Xue's current thought was not that [Thousand Miles Evidence] was not used again, but rather——

"Fortunately, I don't have the source of fear this time."
