Moreover, how can there be new life if we don’t destroy the decaying old things?
The dragon vein that seemed to have transformed became weaker and weaker, and the Sun-covering Demon Sword that was nailed into the dragon vein played its role as a dragon-trapping nail very well. The turbid air stimulated the dragon vein to release more fresh air, and the demon sword that kept drilling deeper and deeper was like a steel nail piercing the blood vessels of a critically ill patient!
Bit by bit, stream by stream, the little remaining fresh air in the dragon vein was completely squeezed out.
An unknown amount of time had passed, but when Xia Lang opened his eyes, the azure crystal in front of him had completely lost its original luster.
It became dim and fragile, and when Xia Lang recalled the Sun-Covering Demon Sword, the entire crystal was completely shattered.
As for Xia Lang, he let out a long breath, spread out his hands, and looked with his golden eyes at the countless golden lines that passed through his heart and spread to his limbs.
"I... have done it."
Xia Langwu smiled happily, his Garuda magic was finally completed. From this moment on, he was no longer restricted in his attacks, and - he had achieved immortality!
Of course, maybe he will still face death in the distant future. But this time is definitely not something that ordinary people with a lifespan of just a hundred years can foresee.
Longevity and immortality are the beautiful visions that countless emperors and generals dream of. And now... he has achieved it.
How could Xia Lang not feel happy after achieving what many people consider to be the ultimate dream? How could he not feel a sense of accomplishment and happiness overflowing all over his body?
Eternal life means eternal time, which allows you to do more things you want to do but cannot do. Witness more changes and see more scenes...
Xia Lang closed his eyes, as if he was imagining the beauty. In the blink of an eye, he had left this declining dragon vein.
But when he returned to Mount Heng again, the scene before him stunned him.
Withered red autumn leaves are scattered all over Mount Hengshan. The color, like old blood, covers the entire mountain. Everywhere you look, it’s all red.
Is this... autumn?
Could it be that I have been staying in the dragon vein for more than a year?
Xia Lang quickly opened his chat group, but the points displayed there told him that only ten days had passed.
So, why did Hengshan Mountain change from a lush and vibrant appearance to this autumn appearance in just ten days?
Xia Lang tilted his head slightly, then spread his Garuda wings and left.
Although he had guessed something, he was too lazy to think about such boring questions. Having achieved the first stage goal in this world, he now... wanted to relax.
He happened to be nearby, and he was going to have some fun, to show off his strength, to... take down some people he didn't like.
The first target should be the princes of the Zhu family.
Just use some so-called 'royal blood' to entertain him.
......
Hengshan Mountain, where Xia Lang is located, belongs to the present-day Shanxi region. This area has always been a place where nomadic peoples and the Central Plains regime collided.
In order to guard against the Mongolian forces in the north, Zhu Yuanzhang enfeoffed his three sons in Shanxi, including Zhu Gang, the Prince of Jin, Zhu Gui, the Prince of Dai, and Zhu Mo, the Prince of Shen.
Let’s first talk about King Jin Zhu Gang.
He was actually considered a good man in the Zhu royal family. After all, the most he had ever done was to have a chef torn to pieces if his dishes were not to his liking.
Compared to the King of Jin who had a cook torn to pieces and then reluctantly began to learn how to behave himself, the following King of Dai is the real heavyweight.
In the early years of Yongle, after being rehabilitated and reinstated as a vassal king, Zhu Gui, the Prince of Dai, who served under the orders of the Prince of Jin, began to show his benevolent nature. Not only did he harshly abuse the Princess Xu and her son, but he also did many absurd things that were recorded many times.
In the Veritable Records of Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, there was a record that: Dai Wang Gui often wore short clothes and a small hat, and took his sons Xun Yan and Xun Yan out to the market. Some were on foot or on horseback, holding big sticks in their hands, with axes and hammers hidden in their sleeves, and they would chase the soldiers and civilians and beat them.
Translated, it means that this absurd and cruel prince's favorite thing to do on weekdays is to ride on horseback with his son, holding a sledgehammer, an axe, a gun and other tools in his hands, and go out into the streets to hunt down civilians, treating them as his prey for his own amusement.
This is the character of the good sons that Zhu Yuanzhang appointed to guard the frontiers. One of them had a cook torn to pieces because the food he cooked was not to his liking, and the other took his sons to the streets to hunt down the people for fun.
Among these three princes, only one, Prince Shen Zhu Mo, can be considered a normal person. Although he does not do bad things, he is a waste who only knows how to indulge in romance.
You might ask, what harm can a waste do? No, his harm may be even greater than that of his two ridiculous brothers.
Because he can give birth.
According to incomplete statistics, there were 3 princes and 73 county kings in the three major vassal states of Shanxi during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong. Among them, there were 25 princes and county kings in Jin, 25 princes and county kings in Dai, and 26 princes and county kings in Shen. It may not seem like a lot, but there were too many descendants of Shen who were not county kings.
Thanks to these princes who could both give birth to children and bring harm to the people, they lived long and had many children. In the early years of Longqing alone, there were 3 princes, 46 dukes, 2606 generals, 3760 lieutenants, 3117 county lords, and 333 commoners in Shanxi, totaling 9865 people.
This is just the data that does not include the huge families of these royal families, their wives' families, and their relatives.
The descendants of these princes all needed financial support from the Ming court. Not only that, they also found ways to plunder and occupy land and directly exploit farmers. Therefore, the problem of land occupation in Shanxi Province in the middle and late Ming Dynasty had reached an exaggerated level.
This is also why when Li Zicheng rose to power and swept across Shanxi, this military province, which should have been strong enough to resist foreign aggression, almost surrendered. People were even happy to see Li Zicheng kill the descendants of the Zhu family.
The more Xia Lang looked at these descendants of the Zhu family, the more annoyed he became.
He is now in Datong Prefecture, Shanxi, and as soon as he arrived here, he saw a "good show".
Xia Lang did not enter Datong Prefecture, because he found a "special" place in the suburbs.
This was a fenced hunting ground, just like the later generations where there were large tracts of golf courses despite the housing shortage. Shanxi Prefecture was already full of famine-stricken people, but outside Datong Prefecture, hundreds of acres of fertile land were abandoned as hunting grounds for the nobles.
But if it was just a hunting ground, it would be fine, but what is hunted in this hunting ground is not animals...
A group of ragged, skinny refugees were running as fast as they could, dragging their frail bodies with fear on their faces, trying to escape from something.
They were not fleeing from wild beasts, but from something far more terrifying than that.
Soon, accompanied by the sound of horse hooves and laughter, a young man in luxurious clothes riding a black horse rushed out laughing, holding a bow and arrow aiming at the running refugees.
These ragged refugees didn't even have the energy to survive, let alone escape. Soon, they were hit by arrows one after another while wailing.
The bullets hit the vital parts of the body, causing the refugees to die instantly. The most tragic ones were those who were shot in the thighs and other places.
The severely injured refugees wailed and rolled on the ground, trying hard to crawl away. But soon, they heard fierce dog barking behind them.
“Woof woof woof woof!!!!”
Many black hounds rushed over. Faced with the refugees rolling on the ground, these "well-trained" hounds pounced on them without hesitation and began to bite them.
As the refugees wailed in pain, the hounds' sharp teeth continued to tear at the flesh that was left with only skin and bones, and the refugees' wails resounded throughout the sky.
And the young master, or rather, the Prince of Jin, rode over on horseback, and at the sight he just laughed happily and praised:
"Good dog, good dog! Bite harder!!!"
The guards beside him applauded loudly for their prince and flattered him when they saw this scene. However, there were already dozens of bodies of the victims in the hunting ground.
Xia Lang watched this scene silently. He was thinking about a question - how much he should do.
Killing him was easy. Slaughtering the entire Zhu family of Shanxi was also easy, but he still felt it was not enough...
He looked at the people surrounding the Prince of Jin. In addition to the guards, there were also the county magistrate of Datong Prefecture, officials from the government office, and people from the local aristocratic families...
It brings together elements of government and business, gathering around this so-called "royal power".
Xia Lang closed his eyes, then opened them after a moment. In his golden pupils, there was only a sense of resolution to end it all.
He was too lazy to think, too lazy to consider whether what he did would lead to worse consequences. He also didn't want to consider the consequences of anarchy, or other such bullshit.
He wants to kill all these people.
Not only in Datong Prefecture, but in the entire Shanxi Province, all the members of the Zhu family, all the officials, and all the wealthy families - he would kill them all.
Sounds difficult? Actually, it's not that difficult. Just shoot at the most magnificent building in the city.
Maybe not every rich and powerful person is wrong, but Xia Lang is too lazy to take care of the only innocent person among a hundred.
Just kill them all.
As for the chaos after the destruction of order, what should we do? Let them be in chaos. If the people cannot live a better life after the mountains above their heads are driven away, Xia Lang does not want to care about anything.
He always only cared about killing and not burying.
Volume 42: Xia Lang's Various Transmigrations: Chapter 41 . [Laughing Proudly] Trampling on the Bones of Kings and Nobles
While he was thinking, the Prince of Jin below had finished his rest and was ready to start his second round of hunting.
This time, those who were released from the fence were a skinny mother and her three equally skinny sons.
The three sons supported their mother who was unable to escape, and as the hounds chased them, the four of them fled in panic, but soon stopped because their mother fell down due to her weakness.
The hound was about to pounce, but the ferocious prince had already drawn the bowstring.
call out! ! !
At this moment, a moon-white light descended from the sky and instantly pierced through the heads of all the hounds!
The Prince of Jin was startled and hurriedly reined in his horse. But when he looked up, he saw a figure slowly descending.
"Who are you? How dare you kill my dog? Are you tired of living?!"
The Prince of Jin stared at Xia Lang viciously, not realizing who the man in front of him was or what he was capable of. Instead, he displayed his usual arrogant attitude as the next vassal king.
"It is because the Zhu family has idiots like you that I feel it would be better if this world ended sooner rather than later."
Xia Lang sighed.
At this moment, the county magistrate nearby caught up and whispered a few words into the ear of the Prince of Jin after observing for a few seconds. The Prince of Jin then understood who the person in front of him was.
"National Master? Humph! He is just a gangster, just a dog, how can he be so arrogant!"
Even though he knew the identity of the person in front of him, Prince Jin still had an arrogant attitude, while Xia Lang tilted his head slightly and suddenly laughed.
"Do you think that the whole world is your Zhu family's hunting ground? Good, very good. If that's the case, let me speed up."
Xia Lang slowly raised his hand, and the next moment, the shooting moon gun instantly broke the limbs of the horse under the crotch of the Prince of Jin!
As the Prince of Jin screamed, his face fell heavily to the ground and he fell off his horse and rolled over. Amid the wailing, the county magistrate next to him was so scared that he quickly helped him up and angrily scolded Xia Lang:
"You are so bold that you dare to hurt His Royal Highness! I will grind your bones and scatter your ashes, and even dig up your ancestral grave!"
The Prince of Jin, who was being helped up, was also furious and immediately said in a murderous voice
"Kill, quickly kill this audacious traitor!!!"
The guards around him rushed forward immediately, but before they got close, they saw moon-white rays of light like a machine gun, quickly killing them all.
It took less than five breaths to kill the guards of more than a hundred people. Even when all the guards around him, including the flattering county magistrate, fell, the Prince of Jin still couldn't understand what happened!
"They call me an immortal, that's how I call myself. But unfortunately I can't save people, I can only kill people." Xia Lang looked back at the victims in the fence, broke the lock and let them out, then said to the trembling Prince Jin in a low voice.
"It's not bad that I know how to kill people. Killing more people like you may not necessarily make the world a better place. At least... it's comfortable."
Three more rounds of the moon gun were fired, and the prince of Jin fell to the ground with a pig-like wail. Xia Lang looked back at the victims who survived the disaster and said calmly:
"Go, kill him, chop him into pieces."
The victims looked at the "immortal" floating in the air in front of them with awe, but even though the man who was hunting them had fallen to the ground and was wailing, no one dared to step forward.
The gene of awe has long been deeply rooted in their bodies. The so-called superiors and subordinates, the so-called noble and humble have long made them dare not express their anger, believing that it is a heinous crime.
They seemed to have forgotten that the blood of the people in front of them was not a bit more noble than theirs. Wasn't the ancestor of this so-called son of the dragon and grandson of the dragon just a little beggar and monk from Fengyang?
Xia Lang looked at them deeply, and did not force them to retaliate. He just turned around and walked to the side of the Prince of Jin.
"You're done! I'm going to find my father, and he will make you suffer a fate worse than death!!!"
The Prince of Jin, whose limbs were bleeding profusely after being beaten, was still shouting here. Xia Lang glanced at him, but used his backhand to stop the blood flowing from his limbs, and then... injected a stream of true energy into his body.
"You want to live? Sure, then live well." Xia Lang looked at this so-called prince coldly and said indifferently.
"I just happened to leave one hand for you, take your time to grab it."
“Hehe, hahaha, hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!”
The next moment, the Prince of Jin, who had been wailing just now, suddenly smiled, and then started laughing as if he could not hold it back any longer, and laughed wildly!
Not only that, his only remaining hand began to scratch his skin frantically, and he couldn't stop even if it caused bleeding or torn skin.
This was a move Xia Lang had learned by imitating the so-called Life and Death Talisman. He was even better with the Yin and Yang energies, and used the clear and turbid energies to penetrate into the body of this scum, confusing his senses while also ensuring that he would have difficulty dying.
He won't die, but he will itch, very, very itchy. Even if he scratches until blood comes out, tears off his skin, or even peels off his skin, the itch cannot be stopped!
“Hahahahaha, you lunatics! These lowly pigs and dogs, hahahahahaha, how can they compete with me, hahahahaha!”
At this moment, Prince Jin finally realized what kind of devil he had provoked. He laughed wildly and threatened, but when he raised his head, Xia Lang had disappeared.
Spreading his Garuda wings, Xia Lang quickly flew over Datong Prefecture and above the magnificent Prince Jin’s Palace.
According to convention, he should probably wait for this so-called King of Jin to come and cause trouble for him, and then one by one, the lackeys who depend on the royal power would try to dissuade him by saying that the overall situation is more important and that his contributions will last for generations.
Then he would get pissed off, his blood pressure would soar, and he would clear out and torture these pigs and dogs one by one.
This process may take more than 50,000 or 60,000 words to complete!
Forget it, Xia Lang was too lazy to waste so much time. There were too many evil creatures in this world, and he really didn't have enough time to torture them one by one.
