Beast Taming: Starting from Contracting the Mysterious Beast

Chapter 178: Fengshan at Mount Tai, announcing to heaven and earth

No one greeted him when he came, and no one saw him off when he left.

Ying Zheng pushed open the gate of Wu'an Jun's mansion, and outside was a black chariot, pulled by eight war horses.

The streets on both sides of the chariot were crowded with black-armored Qin soldiers.

Everyone had a stern face, and everyone stood with a spear in hand. No one dared to speak, like a black torrent ready to go.

"Your Majesty."

Under the steps in front of the door, Meng Wu Wang Ben each led a horse. When he saw Ying Zheng walk out of the door, he immediately bowed and saluted.

The autumn wind was bleak, and Ying Zheng shook his head, and his eyes were instantly clear.

"What time is it?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Report to the king, it is already the hour of Xu."

After staying in Wu'an Jun's mansion for a long time, Ying Zheng felt incredible and looked up at the sky again.

The dark moon appeared, the sunset had not yet set, and the two suns competed for glory. Ying Zheng smiled and said to the two of them.

"In that case, I won't go back to the palace."

"Yes."

The Qin army on the street left, and the residents around dared to go out.

The young man who had previously helped Ying Zheng solve his doubts stood at the door of his house, looking at the Qin army going away, and then turned his head to look at Wu'an Jun's mansion.

He still couldn't remember who Wu'an Jun and General Bai were, and he was too stubborn to ask his parents.

But looking at such a large number of black-armored Qin soldiers coming to greet the gentleman who had just entered the door, I think the person living in this mansion must be extraordinary. Thinking of this, the young man quickly left the house and climbed over the wall of Wu'an Jun's mansion.

He wanted to become a disciple!

Under the whole world, although the six countries were eliminated, the afterglow of the six countries was not over, and the people of the six countries all missed their homeland and fought against Qin...

In the 28th year of Qin Wangzheng, the fifth year after sweeping away the six countries, the first emperor Ying Zheng announced to the world that he would start his first southern tour. The Qin emperor went first for two days, and then all officials followed.

Three days after leaving Xianyang, Ying Zheng sat on the big sedan chair and looked at the fighting in front of him indifferently.

The fighters in front were two teams of Qin soldiers and more than ten swordsmen wearing black cloth masks.

If they fought alone, it would be difficult for the Qin soldiers to defeat these highly skilled swordsmen, but this was a group battle. The elite Qin soldiers were invincible even with the combined strength of the six countries. More than ten swordsmen only held on for a moment before they were defeated one by one and slaughtered.

"Your Majesty, I have fulfilled your mission!"

Meng Wu came to the chariot with a long sword and bowed.

"How many times has this happened?"

Meng Wu was stunned for a moment, and then a cold sweat ran down his face.

"Reporting to your Majesty, this is the 28th time since we left Xianyang."

"Who are the most people?"

Ying Zheng asked again.

"The most are Chu people, followed by Yan people."

"Send a message to Li Xin for me, and ask him to lead his troops to Chu."

"Yes."

Meng Wu breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried to the side, asking a Qin soldier to take the order back to Xianyang.

According to historical records, when the emperor left Xianyang, 30 assassins came. The emperor of Qin was angry, and Xin led his troops to Chu. Chu was in chaos, and the road was smooth after that, and there were no more assassins.

Half a month later, Ying Zheng kept his pace and rushed all the way to Mount Tai.

After waiting for a few more days at the foot of Mount Tai, he finally waited for the belated arrival of the kings and ministers of Qin, as well as the Confucian scholars from all over the country.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

Li Si led the rest of the people to bow.

Ying Zheng did not comment, but just waved his hand to let them not to greet him, and stared at Mount Tai in front of him without blinking.

"Go east to the sea, climb Mount Yuan, and reach Mount Tai."

Mount Tai has historical records of Fengshan, which can be traced back to the Yellow Emperor. There are still many ancient kings on it, known as the 72 kings, but even the Great Qin has no records.

In the Warring States Period, Duke Huan of Qi wanted to Fengshan, but was stopped by Guan Zhong.

Then until the First Emperor Fengshan, the emperors who considered themselves as heroes in all dynasties in later generations were happy to come here to check in.

Ying Zheng calmed down, stepped down from the chariot, walked through the ministers, and stood at the foot of Mount Tai.

Some people stopped Duke Huan of Qi from performing Fengshan, but Ying Zheng didn't have to worry about that.

He walked up the stairs and walked straight all the way. After an hour, he finally reached the top of the mountain.

On the top of Mount Tai, soldiers had already made a platform with soil. Ying Zheng stood in front of the platform and said after a brief discussion.

"Is the stele of praise ready?"

"Your Majesty, it's already ready."

Li Si led Ying Zheng to the stele and took a look. Ying Zheng frowned immediately.

The most praises were for Ying Zheng, and then there were praises for more than 20 previous emperors of the Qin Dynasty. Apart from that, there were no others.

Li Si looked at Ying Zheng's expression, his heart skipped a beat, and he asked carefully.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, is there anything wrong?"

"My Great Qin has conquered the world and fought for several years. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers who died in battle. This is only after I ascended the throne. Hundreds of years before this, countless soldiers and civilians died in war."

"I don't care what happened before, but now, the names of the Great Qin soldiers and those who died in the war should be recorded."

Li Si hesitated and wanted to persuade him.

Ying Zheng knew what he was thinking and waved his hand to stop him.

"I have made up my mind."

"There are so many soldiers and civilians who died in the war. We should engrave a monument to remember them for future generations. Even if we don't put it on Mount Tai, we should build a forest of monuments at the foot of the mountain to commemorate the heroic spirits."

Li Si was silent and stopped persuading.

...

At the same time, thousands of years later in China, at the foot of Mount Tai.

A construction team was repairing the road.

Suddenly, a young man who was operating an excavator saw a square monument with words inscribed on it in the pit in front of him.

He was startled and hurried to find a supervisor.

"Song Gong, this... we must have unearthed some relics."

The supervisor took a look at the text on the square stele.

The text was neither simplified nor traditional, but curved seal script. One could tell at a glance that this thing was definitely not simple.

"Don't move, I'll call the boss right now!"

The supervisor hurried away.

The outsourcing company responsible for the project also reported the news all the way up, and finally, the information fell into the hands of the Institute of History.

Wang Lu came to the scene with his grandfather Wang Ming.

"Grandpa, why does this thing look like the seal script of the Qin Dynasty?"

Wang Lu looked at the cracked square stele on the ground and asked suspiciously.

Wang Ming frowned slightly, but did not jump to conclusions. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and sent a barrage in the live broadcast room.

"Sister anchor, can you..."

Wang Lu watched in amazement beside him.

In the live broadcast room, Bai Shu was teaching martial arts to the nearby teenagers in the yard, and paused when she saw the barrage.

Living in the Qin Dynasty for decades, although Qin sounds can be directly converted into Mandarin, the writing is still written in Qin seal script. Bai Shu has long been familiar with Qin seal script, and there are many bamboo slips in her home.

Let Bai Ping bring two volumes of Qin seal script, and Bai Shu spread them out in front of him.

After getting confirmation, Wang Ming immediately stood up, ordered people to seal this place, and began to dig.

After half a month of excavation, a total of 520 stone tablets were unearthed, on which were engraved the names of countless soldiers and civilians.

On the last stone tablet, there were only a few lines of large characters.

"I would like to use this to commemorate all the people and soldiers who died in the war during the Warring States Period - Qin Emperor Zhengliu."

The incident was broadcast and immediately caused an uproar in the real world.

The image of the Qin tyrant who launched a war for his own selfish interests and destroyed the six countries was reversed.
