The Great Qin: Starting with Marrying Jingni to Prove Immortality Author: A Dream of Luofu

Summary:

After transmigrating, Jiang Chuan spent his days running around trying to make ends meet.

In this chaotic Warring States period, all he wanted was to be an ordinary person and live a peaceful life.

Until one day, he met a woman with a child.

Out of kindness, he took the woman in.

Later, he married her and was surprised to find that she was actually Jing Ni, a top-ranking assassin who had defected from Luo Wang.

It was after getting married that Jiang Chuan discovered a new world.

From then on, he soared to great heights, attaining immortality...

Chapter One: Heroine, Spare My Life!

The world we live in today is a world of great strife.

Since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, wars have been raging constantly.

If the wars between states during the Spring and Autumn Period still had some etiquette and morality, then the present world, after the Spring and Autumn Period, is a true era of moral decay and social disorder, with states frequently engaging in diplomatic conflicts and resorting to any means to gain benefits.

The State of Wei was originally one of the more powerful states among the seven kingdoms of the world, and once put the State of Qin under immense pressure. Unfortunately, after Qin implemented the reforms of Shang Yang and then fought the Battle of Hexi, the balance of power was completely reversed. From then on, the State of Wei became unstoppable and grew stronger and stronger.

Of course, the decline of the State of Wei was not only related to the war with the State of Qin in Hexi, but also inseparable from a pair of arch-enemies.

Those were Pang Juan and Sun Bin.

This contest between the master and disciple from Guiguzi led to the Battle of Malingdao, which resulted in the complete annihilation of the renowned Wei Wuzu. Even though the Wei state later attempted to rebuild the Wei Wuzu, the loss of Pang Juan meant that even though the Wei state mastered the training methods for the Wei Wuzu, the newly trained Wei Wuzu were still inferior to those of the past.

The State of Wei then fell into complete silence.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Jiang Chuan, who lives in a small village on the border of the Wei and Wei states.

Jiang Chuan has been in this world for over a year.

Before transmigrating, he had a father, a mother, and even a wife. His child was only a little over a year old, and he was living a happy and fulfilling life. However, after transmigrating, he became an orphan who had lost both his parents, which made him very depressed.

The others had both parents dead before they transmigrated, because those people basically had no attachments to the real world.

And what happened to him?

He didn't fit the characteristics of a time traveler in the new era at all, and the fact that he had traveled through time like this was really hard for him to accept.

Of course, the identity after time travel, with both parents deceased, does fit the definition of a time traveler quite well.

After transmigrating, this body was raised on the charity of many families because her parents died early.

Normally, he lived alone in a corner on the edge of the village, in a dilapidated house, which Jiang Chuan, who had just transmigrated, found difficult to adapt to.

Although he couldn't accept the fact that he had transmigrated, he was already in this world, and as a transmigrator, he had to do something big.

Unfortunately, reality is cruel.

Even if he has grand ambitions, he will eventually have to struggle for the necessities of life.

Thus, in the first few months after transmigrating, Jiang Chuan tried his best to adapt to this backward and impoverished era by inheriting the original owner's memories. Afterwards, he spent several more months trying to integrate himself into this world.

Through his understanding of this world, he has determined that he has traveled to the end of the Warring States period.

This Warring States period does not refer to the so-called Warring States period of an island nation, but rather to the Warring States period in Chinese history, the era when the seven Warring States stood side by side.

Jiang Chuan enjoyed reading novels and anime in his previous life, and occasionally read historical novels, so he had some understanding of this era.

The time period in which I am living is still many years away from the Qin state beginning to gradually unify the world.

Because the current King of Qin, Ying Zheng, has only been on the throne for a year.

Judging by the timeline, it will take him another two years before he officially assumes power.

After that, he spent several more years dealing with domestic affairs before he began to gradually conquer the six states and unify the world.

Jiang Chuan was able to draw this conclusion because his village was located in a very special area, on the border between the states of Wei and Wei. Wei was a small country, but because of its special geographical location, it naturally attracted the covetousness of many powerful states since the Warring States period.

Three years ago, the State of Qin launched a campaign against the State of Wei, which ultimately forced the ruler of Wei to flee to Yewang, while the original capital Puyang was occupied by the State of Qin. A year ago, the State of Qin incorporated Puyang into the Eastern Commandery.

Jiang Chuan clearly remembered that the Battle of Puyang, which Qin launched against Wei, took place in the fifth year of King Zheng of Qin's reign, while the annexation of Puyang into Dongjun took place in the seventh year of King Zheng of Qin's reign.

Now another year has passed, which means that the time I am in is the reign of King Zheng of Qin.

Of course, these things have little to do with him.

His ambitions had long been worn away by the year's struggle to make a living.

For him, the most important thing to do now is to adapt to this era.

Then, relying on his understanding of history, he tried his best to avoid the war when the Qin state was conquering the world. In the end, he became an ordinary citizen under the rule of Qin. Although the Qin law was harsh, as long as he could survive, he would consider it a success.

this day.

Jiang Chuan got up very early. He first went to check the streams and rivers near the village to see if he had caught anything from the traps he had made with vines, such as loaches or eels.

As it turned out, there were a few loaches.

There wasn't a single eel.

Well, it's not fair to say there aren't any.

One of them had tattoos on it, and it wasn't an eel at all, but a water snake.

Clearly, this unfortunate tattooed man accidentally entered the cage and is now unable to get out.

If it were any other snake, Jiang Chuan wouldn't mind taking it back and making a snake soup.

But as for water snakes, forget it, they don't taste very good, and this one is too small.

Jiang Chuan reluctantly took out the water snake and then put several loaches into the bamboo basket.

After tidying up his trap, he prepared to go to the nearby mountains to take a look.

During the year he spent traveling through the mountains, in order to survive, he often set traps in the river and laid simple snares in the mountains to obtain fish, shrimp and wild game to make a living.

Upon entering the mountains, Jiang Chuan found the place where he had laid his trap.

The traps he set were all extremely simple. He would find a vine on a small tree of moderate thickness, bend the tree, and then use the vine to set a snare with a simple trigger. As soon as prey stepped into it, the vine would immediately retract, the tree would straighten, and the prey would be caught.

Because the traps are so rudimentary, forget about catching large prey; at most, you can only catch some ground squirrels, rabbits, and the like.

Jiangchuan's harvest today was destined to be poor; he visited several places but found nothing of interest.

He then walked to the location of the next trap.

It has been discovered that the trap here has been triggered.

On the vines, one could still vaguely see some of the prey's fur.

only--

Where is my prey?

If I'm not mistaken, there should have been some gains.

However, Jiang Chuan was quite frustrated as he did not see any prey.

Then, he found a faint set of footprints on the ground.

Because of a light rain last night, the ground was damp, making the footprints very noticeable.

"Did someone get here before me and take my prey?"

Jiang Chuan couldn't help but guess that if it were a large wild beast eating its prey, that would be one thing, but it looked like someone had eaten its prey.

“The mountain rain last night didn’t stop until this morning. If these footprints were from last night, there should have been water inside them, but there is no water inside now, which proves that they were made not long ago.”

"I want to see who did this despicable thing."

Jiang Chuan looked at the footprints on the ground and made his own guesses.

Then, following the direction of the footprints, he walked forward.

Because he had been making a living in this area for the past year, he was quite familiar with this mountainous region. There was a stone quarry in front of the forest, but it had been abandoned due to the constant warfare in recent years.

In addition, many people died there during the quarrying process in the past, and the place was gloomy because it was shrouded in mountains and forests. Therefore, there are actually supernatural legends about the place being haunted in Jiangchuan's village.

Normally, very few young and middle-aged people would go there on their own initiative.

Of course, Jiang Chuan, as a time traveler, firmly believed in materialism and did not believe in such things.

He followed the intermittent footprints to the vicinity of the stone quarry, when suddenly, the smell of burnt meat entered his nose.

"Is the person who stole my prey here?"

Jiang Chuan immediately quickened his pace and rushed over there.

Passing through a huge rock, a stone cave nestled in a mountain hollow came into view. The cave wasn't deep, just enough to shelter from the rain. At that moment, a woman was there, roasting a wild rabbit. Her roasting skills were clearly not very good; she should probably go to Linzi in the State of Qi for some training, as the rabbit was burnt.

Just as Jiang Chuan was thinking this.

The next instant, he saw the woman look up at him, and a deep chill instantly enveloped Jiang Chuan's body.

Immediately afterwards, another sword appeared in the woman's hand. She moved swiftly, covering a long distance in an instant, and arrived beside Jiang Chuan. The long sword also landed on Jiang Chuan's throat.
