《Immortals and common people》Follow the same old disastrous road
Advertisement
"Changsheng! Changsheng!" I vaguely heard someone calling my name.
I was sore all over, but helplessly lingered in such a slaughtered castle.
I live an inhuman life. Here is the famous blood-coated city. Before dawn, we will begin to carry a big sack of stone mountain, mountain wild wolves and tigers and leopards unpredictable, often a brother was swallowed down the big throat, disappeared.The sharp edges of the stones gnawed at your feeble waist, and when the day grew cold they were like sharp cones.
The rudder master drove us from the mountain to the foot of the mountain with long whips, and everyone was covered with criss-cross red marks. They want you to use your body to smooth this muddy dirt road, there is a marsh quagmire, so they throw a few people into it, arranging a "human road", and they are stepping on your body to cross this swamp.
It is dark or dawn, no laziness, no rest. Occasionally, the rudder will ask you to go to the back mountain to help hunting. Your task is to help them find the animals, and then blow a whistle to remind them, but often at this time, when a wild boar sees you or hears your whistle, he will rush towards you like crazy.
If you are lucky, the rudder will be able to kill the wild boar and capture the animal. Unfortunately, if the wild boar runs too fast, you will be killed by it alive, and you will be bitten by it. The rudder master was there, hiding in the grass, watching and even laughing.
In order to train more accurate marksmanship, the rudder master can hit the big geese in the sky. You will be called to be a target, and he will place a stone on your body, such as your head, and aim at your body.
It's a pity that the rudder doesn't have any basic spear skills. Maybe he can hit the chest with a shot and kill him on the spot. Of course, it's easier to die like this. If you let him hit a stone, fortunately, if the stone is missed and sprayed into your forehead or eyes, it will be fatal.
At dusk, you will see the rudder master standing at the top of the stone steps. There is a table. On the table was a basin for washing feet, and there were several steamed buns not as big as half a fist, all of which were as hard as stones.
They want you to kneel at the bottom of this stone step, hold them up high, and then kowtow to them. When they are happy, they throw steamed buns down. Throw them one by one.
The people below rushed to grab the dirty steamed bun in the sand. Occasionally, it's good enough. If you can’t eat it, in order to survive, the best thing is to go to the deep forest at night to gather some weeds, tree bark, or encounter good mushrooms to fill your stomach.
You might say, if you were me, you would find an empty place with no one, hit a stone pillar there, and let yourself go.
In fact, everyone has such thoughts, including me, but the world is divided into five lakes and four seas, nine states and seven mountains, and I am the lord of nine states and seven mountains, Nanhuanzuijun.
I am here to fulfill my mission. The gate of the blood-stained city is my faith.
However, one day, a stranger asked me, why did you come to such a place? What's the big mistake?

I shook my head frequently and kept shaking my head.
Because it was actually a long and sad story.
I felt sore all over, the wind roared in my ears, and a slight coolness was in my heart.
Jueyun Sword Spirit told me: In this new world, you are no longer The Monarch Zui Nan-huan and you are no longer an illusionist from the Seven Mountains of Kyushu, you will be a mortal without illusion. In front, is the blood-stained city.
The jade pendant is actually a watershed. Since you received the jade pendant, all the stories will end, and you will return to your life before the jade pendant. You are a sixteen-year-old boy.
Do you know why the zui family wants you to go to a place like blood-coated city? Because you are Monarch Zui Nan-huan, your blood can feed the Candlelight Dragon. So you have to go through all the hardships, all kinds of unhappiness, in order to make you forget yourself as soon as possible.
The Candlelight Dragon is an ancient dragon, sleeping in the deepest part of the blood-coated city. That is a place where only you can enter; you also know what the world will be like once the Candlelight Dragon is released.
Changsheng, live well, be a nameless pawn in the blood-coated city and go through hardships.
I rubbed my eyes.
"Changsheng, everyone is calling you."
A sharp female voice rang slightly in her ears.
I slowly got up, my eyes were gray.
Inside the blood-coated city, there are a group of savages with black faces.
When I entered the hall, an old man asked his crutches to knock me on my thigh, causing me to bend on my knees.
"You're the new little slave? What's your name?" an old monk in a robe asked me with a cold face.
I stared at him blankly.
"Yes. The name is Changsheng." I replied.
"Leng Qi, take him to the important spot in Bloodstained City, and order some tasks to make this little slave adapt."
I held my head in a daze, and stared at the man named Leng Qi. But his face is cold, doesn't he know me anymore?
Here, there are my cousin, Zui Xu,and my aunt and grandpa. Their expressions are so strange, they look at me indifferently.
Leng Qi took me to an empty place.
"Little slave, you will sleep with the wolf in the future, and you are not allowed to be idle now," he coldly threw the broom in my hand, "Now, work, clean up all the feces, it's better not to have Taste. The rudder master will come to check later, if there is a slight margin, it will kill you!" He gritted his teeth.
I shivered, nodded and said yes.
Leng Qi turned around and was about to leave, I stopped him: "Leng Qi, have you forgotten? I am Xiaosheng, and I am your good friend Zui Changsheng? Leng Qi..."
I took a step forward, but he stopped his pace, looked back and gave me a slap in the face.
"Fuck! I'll feed you to the wolf together after you dawdle!"
I stepped back frequently and wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth. Then carefully grabbed the broom and carefully cleaned up these dirty feces.
I looked up and looked at this gloomy world.
I realized that maybe everything I saw before my eyes was contrary to what I was in before my death. On the contrary, the time of the moon is long, and the time of day will be very few. All who love me and respect me will become cruel and ruthless. I seem to have returned to that unarmed boy six years ago.

I was sixteen that year and was serving Emperor Guangxu. However, at that time, fortunately, he was a rebel, with a patron behind him. Today, there is nothing. There is no illusion, not the monarch zui, or the lord of the seven mountains of Kyushu, you are no more than a mortal, you should only be bullied and trampled by others.
I closed my eyes tightly: If I was not born in a palace, if I was not a sect, let alone a master zui, if I was not a child of a master zui. If or, there will be no such thing.
Yes, at that time, I came to the bloody city. Holding a piece of jade pendant tightly in his hand, he lived lonely and helplessly.
I still vaguely remember that day when a stranger asked me, why did you come to such a place? What's the big mistake?
I shook my head frequently and kept shaking my head.
Then I told him such a long and sad story.
Today, the moths are shining, the thin windows see through the dim light, and the flowers bloom, revealing a slight chill.
The sun was approaching the top of the mountain, and the sky blushed, as if a little girl blushed.
I rummaged through the dirt, but the rags of my clothes couldn't be found everywhere, I just couldn't see my token.
"Where is my jade pendant? Why is the jade pendant missing?" I muttered.
Mu Yan put on his coat, looked at the door, turned his head close to the window, and said, "Changsheng, hurry up! It's almost dawn!"
I hurriedly replied: "My jade pendant is missing."
Mu Yan is my only friend in this blood-coated city, and the only person willing to treat me nicely. Others, when I saw me, I was scornful and calculated me, but I was the cheapest little slave, even lower than those savages, and when I saw them, I had to sullen myself. But Mu Yan never looked down upon me. I had only been here for about ten days before I realized that he was the most kind person in this blood-stained city.
"Hurry up, or we will get beaten again!" He urged.
I promised. The heart said it's forget it. It's important to go up the mountain to chop wood, but you can't make a single mistake. It's hard to be a free slave. If something happens again, it will be difficult to keep my position.
I left with him helplessly, didn't tidy up anything, dragged a big sack and rushed out.
Along the way, the other brothers followed suit. But the strange thing is that there are very few people today.
Every day is very hard, and there are also some people who can't stand a head hit and die every day. But you must know that as long as you die, you will be wiped out and you will not be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation. But I was waiting Candlelight Dragon hard.
If you work so hard every day, maybe you won't be sentimental or worry about other things; if so, one day you will probably forget who you are.
A thin light shone on the mountain, and I followed Mu Yan closely. Everyone has to help each other, because there are always a few brotherhoods who are inadvertently swallowed by this wild wolf and lost their lives. In such a place, it is easy to lose your life.
I folded a stack of firewood and put it in a sack.
Mu Yan asked me: "Changsheng, how do you make it through the hard days?"
I inadvertently replied: "Well, I have my own ideals. I have to face all misfortunes with a smile. Only when I am alive can I go out."
"But the gates of the blood-coated city are closed, and I can only live and die here for the rest of my life. For me, I can live a day as a day. Like you said, I only live. Otherwise, what if I die and there's nothing left."
"Do you know? I always think of some past events recently. Broken pictures. I know that since the time I met the rudder owner, he has erased all my previous memories." I told him in detail.
Indeed, I forgot a lot of things before. I told my story to a stranger. Then the rudder master ordered the stranger to erase my memory. In the past few days, some cruel pictures always come to mind somehow. As soon as I tried to recall it, trying to retrieve the lost memory, my head was aching.
A brother deliberately went up the mountain and called my name. I am wondering who it is.
"Zui Changsheng, what do you think this is?" He took out a green thing.
When I saw it, it turned out to be my jade pendant. Yupei is everything to me, it records my memories, my past, it is my life. It is also the only token of my stay in Bloodstained City.
The man named Lou He had an irreconcilable contradiction with me on weekdays, always oppressing me everywhere. But even though he scolded me and beat me, he couldn't take my things.
I threw down the sack angrily, anxiously, and immediately chased it. He didn't know that he was running across the mountain with Yupei high in his hand. I hurriedly chased after him, muttering: "Stop, give me the things back."
Mu Yan guarded the sacks for me, called me a few times, and motioned me not to be impulsive. Because both he and I know that Lou He is the leader of the rudder, so it's not easy to offend him.
But that is my jade pendant, how did it get into the hands of others. It's not that I'm stingy, but it's really important to me.
Then Lou He ran faster and faster, and the mountain road was rugged, so I staggered to catch up.
"Give it back to me!" I shouted.
"Little slave, you have the ability to come up, if you come up, I will pay you back." He jumped up the high wall.
Behind the high wall is the most dangerous place on the mountain. It is full of institutions, all of which are used to deal with wolves.
High wall is high wall, stand firm, I will come down after I get the jade pendant, nothing will happen. I said in my heart.
Seeing his hippie smile, I dashed straight away. He leaped into the air, stepped on the stone fence with one foot, and climbed with both hands, and the whole person was on the high wall.
I took a sneak peek behind the high wall. It was a dangerous place. I had to be more careful. I would die if I planted it.
Only the two of us can stand on the high wall, but the stone fence is a bit short and there are no handles nearby. So it would be very dangerous to want to do large moves on it.
I stood firm, trying to grab the jade pendant with one hand. But Lou He held the jade pendant high and dangled it around my hand, otherwise I would touch it.
"Zui Changsheng, you are just a small slave. Mu Yan is first-class, but you are still fourth-class now. What qualifications do you have to go up the mountain. If I were you, so humble, I would go down from this high wall to feed the wolf. , There is really nothing left." He said.
I didn't pay attention to what he said, so I grabbed the jade pendant.
The brother below came up on the mountainside and stared at both of us, but he dared not make a sound.
Lou He was angry, and I had to go down from the high wall after I got the jade pendant. Who knew he grabbed my clothes and moved me back.
My whole body was about to lean down, but he couldn't stand his heels first. His left foot slid for a while, his right foot slammed into the air, and the whole body was off the ground.
At this moment he was still holding my clothes, I clenched his fist tightly to save his life, but he seemed to be deliberate, the more he slid down, until he let go of his hand, the whole person fell off the high wall The dangerous wasteland behind.
I was shocked, my hands and feet trembling, and I fell off the high wall. The brothers had already reported to the rudder. I was at a loss as to what to do, watching Lou He in the wasteland in fear.
What should I do? I stood there blankly.
The rudder ordered someone to pick up Lou He, only to see that Lou He was covered in blood, one of his eyes was plucked off, and his body was also bloody. When I was rescued, I only knew that I was seriously injured.
Fortunately, he could be rescued in time, the blood-stained doctor said, if one step later, I am afraid that only a layer of skin will be left. It's just that Lou He only has the remaining strength, and he barely becomes a vegetative.
My heart throbbed like a rock on that mountain rolling down. The rudder ordered someone to arrest me and take me to the hall; I just knew that I was in trouble.

And virtual or not, D0n is determined to live out his reality with a pace and vision that suits him best. It’s just a shame that his habit of a personalized play style has some far reaching consequences even Golden Age’s dev team could have never predicted. New Chapters uploaded every Wednesday.

8 138Res Publica: Republic Among Monarchs
Leonhard has always questioned the idea of rulership. In this world of endless war and strife, he often pondered the validation of Monarchy and Republic. For the past decade, he had invested his life into studying it. Still, as the son of Patrician Pabio Zieten, head of one of the most prominent houses in the Republic of Iodeal, he found himself obstructed by the duties he must perform. These duties range from venturing into the post-succession war island kingdom, dealing with rivaling houses and even leading troops into the field of battle. It would seem as if he would never get the time needed to discover the way of rulership. But perhaps being involved in such politics would enable him to discover something much more important than he had originally hoped...
