The Most Powerful Man in the World

Shaking his head, Bai Qi said to Chu Yi: "You don't have to worry about when and how you will go as a teacher. You just need to go to the post by yourself. If there is any need, the teacher will show up."

Chu Yi nodded. Now that Bai Qi had already made a decision, Chu Yi didn't say much. He still couldn't control Bai Qi's thoughts, but he was a little interested in the next appointment.

Speaking of which, Chu Yi really looked forward to the terracotta warriors and horses, and at the same time, he also wanted to see what was so magical about the terracotta warriors and horses that people like Emperor Shihuang and Bai Qi valued them so much.

It can be imagined that the terracotta warriors and horses are definitely not that simple. If there is no magic, they will definitely not be valued by so many big bosses.

Early the next morning, Chu Yi bid farewell to Bai Qi and went straight to Mount Li.

Lishan covers a vast area, with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles. Such a vast area is one of the many places where great war weapons were cast. Lishan was selected as the casting base for terracotta warriors and horses. There are no less than a million craftsmen and laborers.

It was the first time for Chu Yi to come to such a huge foundry base in Lishan. Although he had visited before before, it wasn't Chu Yi after all, was it?

Now that Chu Yi was ordered to take over the Lishan base, a group of officials who had already received the news were already waiting for Chu Yi's arrival in front of the Lishan base.

Chu Yi had previously petitioned the prime minister for them. It can be said that among the officials, craftsmen, and laborers, Chu Yi's reputation is quite good.

The status of these people in Daqin is not high at all. In addition, Daqin governs the country by law, and there are standards from top to bottom. For these craftsmen and laborers, if the tasks assigned by the above are not completed, it will be fatal.

It was precisely because of this that so many people were grateful for Chu Yi's pleading letter on their behalf.

These subordinate officials saw a figure approaching slowly from a distance, it was not Chu Yi or who it was.

When he saw Chu Yi, one of the leading generals came out first, bowed to Chu Yi and said, "The last general, Zhang Han, pays homage to your lord."

Looking at Zhang Han in front of him, Chu Yi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He didn't expect that he would give himself such a big surprise when he just arrived.

Looking carefully at the general in front of him, Chu Yi showed a smile on his face. As expected, Zhang Han, one of the famous generals of the Great Qin Dynasty, has not yet made his mark, but he already has the qualifications of a famous general.

He nodded slightly at Zhang Han, his eyes fell on a group of officials who came to greet him, Chu Yi raised his hand slightly and said: "You don't need to be polite, I was ordered to take over the Lishan base and supervise the construction of the base. Terracotta warriors and horses, we are colleagues from now on, and I hope you can help Chu to fulfill his duties and fulfill the prime minister's entrustment."

All the officials in his eyes saluted Chu Yi and said, "We will definitely live up to your expectations."

At this moment, Zhang Han walked up to Chu Yi, and said to Chu Yi: "My lord, come with the general."

When Chu Yi arrived, the first thing he did was not to inspect the Lishan base, but was taken by Zhang Han to a continuous building complex. This is obviously a vast area. Needless to say, it is naturally for the millions of craftsmen in Lishan. Live in work and labor on weekdays.

In front of a courtyard that can be regarded as top-notch among many building complexes, Zhang Han said to Chu Yi: "My lord, this is your residence. If you have any dissatisfaction, just ask your lord to do so. Order this to be arranged for adults."

Chu Yi just glanced at the courtyard for a few moments, then nodded slightly and said, "No need to change it, it looks good."

As he said that, Chu Yi said to Zhang Han: "General Zhang Han, take me to the core of the base. I want to check the casting of the terracotta warriors and horses."

Compared to before, when Chu Yi was ordered to inspect the base, he only checked the general surface of the Lishan base, but did not go in-depth to check the casting process of the terracotta warriors.

After all, the matter of the terracotta warriors and horses is a secret in Daqin itself. If they are not the real core personnel, even inspections like Chu Yi's before are not qualified to touch the core process of casting the terracotta warriors and horses.

Not to mention that Chu Yi did not have the impression of previous inspections, even if he did, he would not be able to get in touch with the core process of casting the terracotta warriors.But this time it was different. As the chief officer of the Lishan base, he was the supreme existence in the Lishan base, and the many secrets that were kept secret from him would no longer be elusive secrets.

Zhang Han can be responsible for the safety of the Lishan base. From this alone, it can be seen that although Zhang Han is not famous all over the world, he must have already entered the sight of the high-level officials of Daqin.Otherwise, how could such an important land be handed over to Zhang Han casually.

Zhang Han nodded at Chu Yi and said, "My lord, come with the general."

Soon under the guidance of Zhang Han, Chu Yi turned around several mazes, and even passed a small teleportation formation. After passing through that teleportation formation, Chu Yi only felt as if he had entered another In a piece of space.

The dark space was filled with endless evil spirits, figures were busy in this space, and the refined terracotta warriors and horses looked lifelike, but they gave Chu Yi a mold-like feeling.

The terracotta warriors and horses he imagined were not like this. If the terracotta warriors and horses that the first emperor relied on were like clay sculptures, then he felt that the first emperor should calm down his ambition as soon as possible.

But soon Chu Yi saw another scene. He saw bronze cauldrons in front of him sitting on the ground fires. Ordinary terracotta warriors and horses were thrown into the cauldron.

With a bang, the cauldrons were sealed shut, and under the burning of the raging fire, there was a roaring sound from the bronze cauldron.

Chu Yi stood aside, just watching silently, while Zhang Han also stood there expressionless, watching these craftsmen busy.

I don't know how long it has passed, but a person who is obviously the leader of many craftsmen shouted in a deep voice: "Open the cauldron."

As the words fell, tens of thousands of bronze cauldrons were opened with a bang, and a wave of evil spirit rushed out, rushing out of a terracotta warrior with an obvious change.

However, the terracotta warriors and horses were undulating and hanging above the bronze tripod under the impact of the evil spirit in the bronze tripod. Chu Yi's eyes lit up. If the previous terracotta warriors and horses were the embryos of clay sculptures, now they are like flesh and blood.

Although Chu Yi can clearly feel that the terracotta warriors and horses are not made of flesh and blood under the divine sense, but they are not much different from the flesh and blood, whether it is the pores or the acupuncture points of the whole body , are all existences, if they are not flesh and blood, they are not much different from living beings.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

At this point, Chu Yi watched with great interest. If there were no accidents, there should be some other procedures, because in his opinion, these terracotta warriors and horses in front of him were not finished products at all, at most they were only semi-finished products.

Sure enough, Zhang Han, who was standing beside Chu Yi, cupped his hands slightly at Chu Yi and said, "My lord, I will finally enlighten these terracotta warriors!"

Chu Yi nodded, while Zhang Han took a step forward, and saw Zhang Han take out a tiger talisman from his bosom. This tiger talisman was full of blood, and it felt like a fragment of a ghostly hell.

And Zhang Han held the tiger talisman in both hands, muttering something in his mouth, suddenly Zhang Han threw the tiger talisman out of his hand, and the tiger talisman hanging in the air burst out streams of light.

Chu Yi could clearly see that the beams of light flying out of the tiger talisman were actually heroic spirits, and these heroic spirits directly submerged into the terracotta warriors and horses in the air.

When all the terracotta warriors and horses were filled with heroic spirits, Zhang Han's expression changed, and he stretched out his hand, and the Tiger Talisman fell into Zhang Han's hands.

And the terracotta warriors and horses in the air fell directly into the bronze tripod below. With a bang, the lid of the tripod fell down. Judging from the situation, it turned out to be another sacrifice.

On the other hand, Zhang Han explained to Chu Yi: "After all, these heroic spirits are not integrated into the terracotta warriors and horses. We must use the power of the future to integrate the terracotta warriors and horses with the heroic spirits. Only in this way can the power of the terracotta warriors and horses be raised to maximum."

Chu Yi nodded thoughtfully and said, "The terracotta warriors and horses seem to be quite similar to puppets."

Zhang Han nodded and said: "Yes, the terracotta warriors and horses themselves were improved by Mozi's predecessors according to the method of refining puppets, but compared with puppets, the terracotta warriors and horses are not much different from strangers except that they are not strangers. Even these terracotta warriors and horses It is not impossible to practice independently after the heroic spirit settles in, and it is not impossible to even break the realm of the heroic spirit's previous cultivation."

Hearing what Zhang Han said, Chu Yi was amazed in his heart. He never thought that the method of refining the terracotta warriors and horses came from Mozi.

Who doesn't know that Mozi, the first ancestor of the Mohist school, studied the power of heaven and man, and his mechanical attainments are rare in ancient times. He created the Mohist school. He never thought that the other party would hide behind the Daqin and contribute to the Daqin.

The blazing ground fire was burning, and there was a roaring sound from the bronze tripods, and the roaring sound was endless. In the past three days, those craftsmen finally moved, one by one, they ran towards the bronze tripods, almost at the same time. Open the bronze tripod.

The moment the bronze tripod was opened, figures flew out of the bronze tripod with incomparable agility.

From Chu Yi's point of view, these terracotta warriors and horses are full of spirituality now, and they look like strangers, of course, this is without looking at the materials that make up their bodies.

After all, no matter how powerful Shihuang and Mozi are, they don't have the ability of Nuwa to make people out of clay, right?

It is incredible to be able to refine the terracotta warriors to such an extent.

After these terracotta warriors got used to their current bodies, they bowed to Zhang Han and Chu Yi one by one, and then ran away in one direction in unison.

In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of terracotta warriors and horses in the sky disappeared without a trace.

And those craftsmen are obviously familiar with these. After the terracotta warriors and horses left, they began to repeat everything they had done before almost immediately, and began to worship the terracotta warriors and horses again.

Chu Yi looked curiously at the direction where the terracotta warriors and horses were flying. Zhang Han obviously noticed the change in Chu Yi's expression, and with a smile on his face, he said to Chu Yi, "My lord, that is the barracks of the terracotta warriors and horses. It belongs to the jurisdiction of our Lishan base, if you are curious, I will take you to have a look."

Chu Yi was naturally curious, so he didn't say politely to Zhang Han: "That's very good, I also want to see what the barracks formed by these terracotta warriors look like."

But this time, Chu Yi could clearly feel that the evil spirit in the direction they were heading was getting stronger and stronger, and even in the end, the intensity of the evil spirit almost turned into substance.

An aura emerged from Zhang Han's body to push away the evil spirits around him, and he explained as he walked forward: "These terracotta warriors and horses are not real strangers after all, and your majesty intends to use the power of the terracotta warriors and horses to attack the Netherland, so these terracotta warriors and horses Placed in this Nine Netherlands."

Speaking Zhang Handao: "This is the place where the most yin gathers under Lishan Mountain, and the yin and evil spirits are so strong that they can't go down to the Netherland, so placing these terracotta warriors and horses here, on the one hand, can make these terracotta warriors adapt to the Netherland. On the other hand, these terracotta warriors can practice here.”

While speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, Chu Yi couldn't help but widen his eyes, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Looking at it at a glance, the evil spirit that seems to have turned into mist pervades this vast and boundless blood-colored land, and on this boundless land, teams of terracotta warriors are neatly arranged to form military formations one after another Just stand on this piece of land so silently.

It can be said that if you look around, even with Chu Yi's eyesight, you can't see the end of the formation formed by the terracotta warriors. There are really too many soldiers. Chu Yi can't tell how many soldiers there are here. figurines.

If it wasn't for Zhang Han's previous statement that this place is the place where the evil spirit gathers under the Lishan Mountain, he would have doubted whether he had entered the netherworld.

Seeing Chu Yi's expression and reaction in his eyes, Zhang Han was not surprised by Chu Yi's shock, but took it for granted. You must know that even when he saw the situation here for the first time, he was just like Chu Yi. reaction.

It is true that the terracotta warriors here are too huge, completely beyond anyone's imagination.

At this moment Chu Yi came back to his senses, subconsciously looked at Zhang Han and said, "Zhang Han, do you know how many terracotta warriors there are here?"

From Chu Yi's point of view, Zhang Han is the chief officer of Lishan Base, so he must know exactly how many terracotta warriors there are here.

However, what surprised Chu Yi was Zhang Han who shook his head at him and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint my lord. The last general doesn't know how many terracotta warriors there are here."

Chu Yi subconsciously said: "How is this possible, you are..."

As if knowing what Chu Yi was thinking, Zhang Han explained: "My lord doesn't know that this place has already existed. The terracotta warriors and horses have been refined since the first year of the first emperor. At that time, General Li Xin was in charge of this place. Later, several generals took charge of this place successively, and the last general only took over this place a few years ago, so the last general only knew how many terracotta warriors he refined during his tenure, as for how many other generals refined during his tenure Terracotta warriors, the last general really doesn't know."

"What? You don't even know how many terracotta warriors there are here, and the existence of this place can be traced back to the first year of Emperor Shihuang?"

Zhang Han nodded and said: "That's right, there are nine spaces like this one, and the other eight places are currently closed, and only this place is still open to accept new terracotta warriors. Even so, the last general does not know how many terracotta warriors there are here."

Chu Yi nodded slightly. He knew in his heart that this should be a manifestation of Emperor Shihuang's imperial mind. Since the terracotta warriors and horses are so important, then the matter about the terracotta warriors and horses must be very secret. Looking at it now, it is obvious that the terracotta warriors and horses have been refined. How many, I am afraid that the generals in charge like Zhang Han are not clear, only the first emperor really knows how many terracotta warriors have been refined.

Taking a deep look at the terracotta warriors lined up neatly on the vast expanse of land, these terracotta warriors have obviously fallen into silence one by one, practicing silently, without the call from the outside world, there is no slightest concern for their arrival at all. reaction.

Now that the situation of the terracotta warriors and horses has been roughly figured out, there is no point in staying here. Chu Yi nodded at Zhang Han and said: "General Zhang Han has worked hard, let's go back."

Soon the two left the place, and after Chu Yi and the two left, among the endless terracotta warriors, they saw a terracotta warrior who was no different from all the terracotta warriors slowly opened his eyes and looked at the terracotta warriors. Chu Yi and Zhang Han took a look, then closed their eyes on the ground and fell into silence, as if they had never opened their eyes just now.

At the foot of Mount Li, Chu Yi summoned several stewards from the base of Mount Li. Since he was ordered to supervise the affairs of the Terracotta Warriors, he naturally had to abide by his duties and be dedicated to his duties.

Otherwise, if the construction period is delayed, it will be difficult for the first emperor to explain it. If someone is serious, I am afraid that only Bai Qi can save him if he comes forward.

Listening to the various problems faced by the Lishan base from the stewards, Chu Yi summed it up. In the final analysis, the problems are not big or small.

Compared with the tasks assigned by the First Emperor, the craftsmen and labor labor of millions of people in the Lishan base are obviously not enough. This is also why the craftsmanship and labor at the Lishan base were delayed during Chu Yi's previous inspection.

The task is heavy and there are not enough manpower. It would be a real strange thing if the task can be completed on time.

In addition, Zhang Han also responded to a problem, that is, the number of heroic spirits in the tiger talisman bestowed by the first emperor is running out. It is also impossible to make new terracotta warriors.

Now the few people looked at Chu Yi with full expectation. Obviously, in their opinion, since the First Emperor sent Chu Yi, then Chu Yi must be able to solve the problems faced by the Lishan base.

Not only the chief officials, but Zhang Han also looked at Chu Yi.

As the first emperor's confidant general, Zhang Han, like generals like Li Xin, is qualified to take charge of the Lishan base, which is enough to prove the first emperor's trust in Zhang Han.

So Zhang Han learned one thing from the first emperor in advance, that is, as long as Chu Yi is willing, the problem of the shortage of heroic spirits will no longer be a problem.

As the general guarding the Lishan base, Zhang Han knows the importance of heroic spirits better than anyone else. If there are no follow-up heroic spirits to supplement, no matter how many people are added, there will not be a terracotta warrior. As an official, Zhang Han is more concerned about the issue of heroic spirits.

Seeing everyone's expressions in his eyes, Chu Yi tapped lightly on the table with one hand, and finally smiled and said: "I have already understood the problems you mentioned, everyone can rest assured, since these problems exist, Then I come here by the emperor's order, and I will try my best to solve these problems for everyone."

Seeing the crowd leave, Chu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, took the bamboo slips, and then took out the carving knife to carve on the bamboo slips.

He is going to write a letter to the first emperor. Although he is said to be a pawn that the first emperor calculated in vain, being able to be regarded as a pawn by the first emperor is enough to prove the importance of Chu Yi. Although a chess piece must have the awareness of a pawn, Chu Yi can I don't intend to be a pawn honestly.

Originally, he didn't need to write a letter to the first emperor, but Chu Yi was not that kind of honest character.

Soon a memorial was completed, and just as Chu Yi rolled up the bamboo slips and put them on a seal, a figure appeared in the hall without sound.

"You are quite bold, you are not afraid of being punished by His Majesty the First Emperor when you submit this memorial?"

Seeing Bai Qi appearing beside him, Chu Yi was not surprised, after all, Bai Qi had said earlier that when he was needed, he would show up.

The memorial in Chu Yi's hand was probably written for Bai Qi to read, as expected, Bai Qi couldn't help showing his figure.

Chu Yi stood up and saluted Bai Qi: "The disciple has met the teacher!"
