After a long time, Zhao Huaizhong exhaled slowly, opened his eyes, and ended his practice.
"The earth's veins, the fate of the country, and the thoughts of all living beings converged together, and after a long period of precipitation, the black dragon was finally formed. It is the most majestic creature in the world."
Zhao Huaizhong thought to himself.
When I saw the black dragon just now, I felt that there was a breath in its body, which was exchanging and convection with another breath.
The other breath, coming from Xianyang in the Qin Dynasty, is the fairy seedling five-needle pine.
These two creatures of heaven and earth, I don’t know when they came into contact, and they promoted each other’s growth.
After a while, Zhao Huaizhong suppressed the throb of imagining the dragon coming and took out a paper puppet.
The paper human body has complex lines constructed with magic power, all over the body.
It fell to the ground and took a small black gourd.
Zhao Huaizhong planned to let it act as a messenger to deliver Yinbingdou to the underworld.
Behind the paper figure, two origin words written by Zhao Huaizhong, "Thunder and Lightning", appeared.
A scoff.
Behind the paper man, a pair of wings flashing with lightning emerged.
Its body shape transformed and grew rapidly, becoming almost ten feet tall, with a green face and red hair, fangs exposed, and thunder and lightning on the wings on its back, which was somewhat similar to the legendary 'Lei Zhenzi'.
The paper man Lei Zhenzi flapped his wings and disappeared suddenly.
The next moment, it appeared in the sky above Xianyang and disappeared in an instant.
Zhao Huaizhong occasionally makes ‘hand puppets’, and the paper man just now is a deliberate imitation of Lei Zhenzi.
Then he took another look at the situation in the underworld.
The ghost wears a high crown and stands on a chariot ridden by six yin horses.
Where his dark eyes were looking, there were tens of thousands of Yin soldiers, swarming like a tide towards a city in the underworld.
The city is built with gray-black bricks and stones, and there are Yin soldiers fighting inside and outside the city walls. The winning side will absorb the Yin energy of the defeated and become stronger.
In the underworld, might makes right, and it is even more naked and bloody.
Ghosts have been in the underworld for several years and have figured out the rules of the underworld.
The underworld is now in the period of conquest by the heroes, just like the late Yin Dynasty when the eight hundred princes in the human world were fighting each other, fighting each other to strengthen themselves. If you don't fight others, others will fight you.
Since last year, ghosts have also joined the underworld conquest melee.
The ancient ruins where he entered the underworld from the human world are located in the wilderness, on the edge of the underworld.
Now, he is gradually advancing towards the core of the underworld.
The Yin soldiers derived from lentils are a huge help.
As long as the soldier beans are still there, even if the Yin soldiers are killed, they can still be regenerated after a period of time, and the cycle will continue.
Ghosts have ruled three ghost cities in the underworld and become a new force that cannot be ignored.
Zhao Huaizhong withdrew the technique of exploring the underworld, returned to his bedroom, rested for a while, then got up and went to court.
In the morning, Fan Qingzhou, who was fat but nimble on his feet, approached the study:
“Your Majesty, the arrangements left on Lao Ai’s body yesterday were destroyed, indicating that he may be dead.
His last breath was in the northeast."
"Then follow the clues to Lao Ai's death and investigate further."
In the following days, Zhao Huaizhong often went in and out of the flower house for the coming spring plowing.
Starting from next year, Qin plans to increase the planting of wheat and rice in various places in order to slowly turn them into major food crops.
Recently, all the elders of the Shennong clan came to Xianyang and lived in Huacaoju.
So when Zhao Huaizhong came, he was serious about observing the various crops grown in the cave.
That afternoon, after he finished reviewing the memorial, he came to Huacaoju again.
Four or five elders of the Shennong clan were sitting in the small courtyard.
Zhao Huaizhong came over and the two parties took their seats after greeting each other.
An elder of the Shennong clan said: "We are talking about the art of grafting. In this winter season, we can actually eat fresh fruits that are only available in spring and summer. It is really amazing."
The kind-faced old lady half-closed her eyes and said with a smile:
"My Shennong clan has been studying vegetation for generations, but it was King Qin who first proposed the art of grafting. Every time we think about this, we feel ashamed.
The King of Qin is a man of great wisdom, and he knows many things from birth, so it is just like the ancient sages and great sages mentioned in the ancient scrolls, who can be so strange."
This rainbow fart caught me off guard... Zhao Huai thought to himself.
He asked calmly: "Are the elders of the clan accustomed to living in Xianyang recently? If you need anything, I can send someone over."
"Don't bother King Qin. I'm staying here very well. Jiang Xi said that King Qin placed a mythical beast egg here. It has shown signs of hatching recently. We were curious and came to take a look." The old lady responded.
Mu Yangjing invited... Zhao Huaizhong blinked his eyes and nodded to show that he understood.
It turned out to be Mu Yangjing's little trick.
At this time, Mu Yangjing happened to come out of Taoyuan Cave.
She was wearing a moon-white Baishui dress with plum blossom embroidery on the front. Her figure was undulating and graceful.
The cuffs were outlined with several patterns of blue water and clouds with silver wire. His face, which had just been worked, was slightly rosy, his skin was like fat, his apricot eyes were shining, and he was full of vitality.
The elders of the clan were all there, and she obviously did not intend to reveal her close relationship with Zhao Huaizhong. She lowered herself slightly and greeted him with a salute: "King Qin."
Zhao Huaizhong asked, "Did you invite the elders here?"
Mu Yangjing denied it flatly: "I didn't, the clan elders are coming, and I can't refuse.
Also, be careful next time you come to my place and don't sneak into my room. I gave the room to the clan elders. If you sneak in, you will make a joke."
Zhao Huaizhong laughed and said: "What are you going to do when the clan elders leave?"
Mu Yangjing also smiled: "I haven't thought about it yet."
At this time, the clan elders called to Mu Yangjing to take out the alien eggs.
Mu Yangjing took out the animal egg from the small gourd.
The surface of the white eggshell, which is almost half the size of a human, has interlaced textures and shimmering light, making it very beautiful.
On the five-needle pine not far away, the unicorn poked its head out from the treetop, its amethyst-like eyes closed, and it also looked at the eggs that the old people gathered around to watch.
The outline of a young beast vaguely emerged from the egg.
It has a body similar to that of a snake, with a slender body, but behind its head, there are obviously two fleshy wings with wings.
"Like the legendary Yinglong?"
"In the egg-laying period, there are many creatures with slender bodies. We cannot identify them as Yinglongs, but this aura must be that of a very powerful spiritual beast."
"It has wings and has an ancient aura. It may be a type of Luan bird.
It is said that a Luan bird has the physical characteristics of a dragon and a snake before it is reincarnated, and is even hermaphroditic. It has a body like a snake, so in my opinion it may be a Luan bird."
The old people made their own guesses.
"I feel that it has a similar blood relationship with me, maybe it is a unicorn."
The big unicorn on the tree also joined in the fun, shaking the soul with a sound of hidden expectation.
"Maybe there is still a female unicorn that can mate with you and reproduce the unicorn family." Zhao Huaizhong said.
Qilin blinked his big eyes.
It really hopes that it is a female unicorn, and it still has the intention of old unicorns eating young unicorns. If it is a female unicorn, we will take good care of it. When it grows up, our unicorn family will not be alone, and we can breed more.
Kirin.
Zhao Huaizhong was also looking at the egg.
He was the only one who saw through the truth in the egg. His previous guesses were all wrong. Some strange beasts were disguised before they were born, in order to protect themselves in their infancy.
The image it reflects on the surface of the shell is false.
The real life inside the egg is a smart and cunning little guy.
In the center of the eggshell, there is a small beast lying down, not yet opening its eyes, but breathing heavily in its mouth and nose, hiding itself deep in the breath.
The scene seen from outside the egg is not its full true appearance.
Zhao Huaizhong saw through it without saying anything, and returned to Xianyang Palace after staying for a while.
This egg is often placed on the five-needle pine by Mu Yangjing to absorb the breath, and it is already about to hatch.
Since ancient times, places where mythical beasts have gathered have been mostly auspicious places that can increase and improve luck.
If more and more mythical beasts gather in Xianyang, it will further increase Da Qin's luck.

Yandi, Jicheng.
That evening, an attendant came to the study of the head of the Jing family: "The head of the family, Prince Dan of Yan, is here to visit."
The voice of the head of the Jing family came from the room: "Let him wait a moment, I will come later."
A quarter of an hour later, the head of the Jing family met Prince Yan in another palace.
Prince Dan stood up and held the ceremony, and said bluntly: "Dan came to the house several times to ask for help from the family head. What do you think of the family head? Are you willing to take action personally?!"
The head of the Jing family: "Why did the prince think of assassinating the King of Qin?"
Prince Dan smiled bitterly and said: "I have no personal grudges with the King of Qin. I am just worried about the survival of my country, Yan. I am afraid that it is the last chance to kill the King of Qin."
Generally speaking, those who hold royal power are entangled with the people and the fate of a country, have many trivial matters, and are burdened with the fate of the people, so they cannot go very far in practice.
But King Qin is obviously an exception. He holds the kingship with the dignity of a saint, which is rare in ancient and modern times.
Since he became the king of Qin, the fortunes of the people of Qin have been rising steadily like their realm. The weather in Qin has been good and the crops have been good year after year.
Moreover, King Qin's power is growing every day. If he continues to delay, the foundation of the Qin people will only become more and more stable and difficult to shake.
Dan also came up with this strategy because he had no other choice.
Please help me, Master!"
The head of the Jing family said calmly: "I will think about it for a few days and then give the prince an answer."

Late October.
To the southwest of Qin, on the pipeline leading to Xianyang, more than ten vehicles and horses were meandering forward.
In the large carriage at the head, Lord Yelang raised his head and scanned the other people on the carriage with the corner of his eyes.
Also sitting on the carriage were the leader of the Qiang people, the leader of the Pu people, and several other leaders of the southwestern tribes that they met when they went to the royal city of the Ba people that day.
"When we enter Xianyang this time, we must not only observe the Qin people, but also let the Qin people know the military strength of the tribes in our southwest. Don't let the Qin people underestimate our tribes." said the leader of the Pu tribe who never left his axe.
The leader of the Yi tribe, who is middle-aged and has darker skin but is in excellent shape, also said:
"I have heard for a long time that the Qin people's army is the most powerful in the world. We should work together and use our own efforts."
The leader of the Pu clan said: "I am not worried about the Qin people's attack. It is true that the Qin people are good at fighting, but that refers to the change of military formation and the art of joint attack by everyone.
In terms of personal bravery, the thirty warriors of the Pu tribe who are accompanying me this time are all warriors of our tribe, and they should be able to let the people of Qin know how strong our Pu tribe is."
The Lord of Yelang Kingdom said proudly: "The thirty elites of my Yelang clan accompanying me are also brave enough to be invincible to any army."
The leader of the Pu tribe glanced at the leader of the Yelang Kingdom: "My evaluation of the warriors in my tribe is absolutely untrue."
The Lord of the Yelang Kingdom said dissatisfied: "You mean, the Lord of the Kingdom is bragging about the bravery of our Yelang clan warriors?
All the ethnic groups in our southwest do not know that the master of our country never speaks lies."
laugh!
The words of Lord Yelang actually caused laughter, and several other people couldn't hold it back and laughed in unison.
When the southwestern tribes entered Qin this time, they not only wanted to see the Qin people's national power and military strength, but also impressed the Qin people with their own bravery, so that they could strive for favorable conditions in negotiations with Qin.
November 4th, Xianyang, the sky is overcast.
Convoys from all ethnic groups in the southwest enter the city from the south gate at noon.
And just when they entered Xianyang, the aura of heaven and earth began to rhyme and suddenly collapsed in a certain direction within the city.
"The egg hatched."
In Xianyang Palace, Zhao Huaizhong's eyes were burning, piercing the void and looking towards the Flower and Grass Residence.
