Chapter 565: General Zhenbei
Chapter 565: General Zhenbei
"Yes, boss!" Xiaoliu put away the space ring.
"By the way, the factory is almost finished. Send Zi Ling over there and talk to my dad to arrange a job for her."
Xiaoliu felt relieved after hearing this, and couldn't hide the joy on his face.
The living ancestor could finally be sent away. During this period of time, he felt that Alexander, the human, had been acting strangely recently. He seemed to be particularly attentive to him, either serving him tea or asking about his well-being.
Xiaoliu could hardly bear it anymore and had no choice but to escape, going out early and coming back late all day long. Like these simulated robots, although they wouldn't die from drinking water and eating, they would get strayed.
Now that's good, as long as we send the person away, we can live a normal life. Xiaoliu walks with confidence.
Fu Ling had promised to provide a home for the soldiers, and since he had time today, he quickly made it happen.
After entering the boundary bead, Fu Ling came to the end of the world. There was a tombstone here, which belonged to the poor person Xiaohong. He took out some offerings from the space.
"Xiaohong, I'm here to see you. I've brought some neighbors with me. They're all loyal and brave heroes and will take good care of you."
From the day she buried Xiaohong, she decided to use this place as a cemetery. Whenever her relatives passed away in the future, she would bring them here and bury them. This way, she could come in and see them anytime she missed them.
Furthermore, compared to the beautiful mountains and rivers, where can one compare with the Boundary Pearl, especially the abundant spiritual energy here. Fu Ling once heard the fairy in the painting say that if the soul sleeps in a place with abundant spiritual energy, it will increase blessings, which will not only benefit the deceased, but also protect future generations.
As his consciousness immersed itself in this world, the ground soon underwent earth-shaking changes. The area within a radius of a thousand miles became a cemetery. Tombstones appeared out of thin air, with no words written on them. Beside each tombstone was a terracotta warrior.
The flower seeds and saplings rewarded by the system were taken out from the space and planted around the cemetery. They were watered with spiritual spring water, and the flowers, plants and trees grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After doing all this, Fu Ling returned to the cabin.
After Ouyang Yuan's problem was solved, Xuanyuan Gen regained his energy and kept glued to the TV all day long.
When Fu Ling came in, he was eating instant noodles and staring at the screen and laughing uncontrollably.
This was the first time I saw him put aside his pride and laugh so happily.
"Your Majesty, does it look good?" Fu Ling crossed her arms over her chest and looked at Xuanyuan Gen with a beautiful smile.
"Very good! Miss Fu, can you give up this thing called TV when you go back?" Xuanyuan Gen stared at Fu Ling with sharp eyes, fearing that she would not agree.
"You can have as many of these as you want. It's not like you have to part with them. It's a pity you can't use them when you take them back. There was no electricity back then, so all you'll have is some scrap metal."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuanyuan Gen's face changed from surprise to disappointment.
"But..."
“???” Xuanyuan Gen held the bowl of instant noodles and blinked his eyes in confusion.
"You definitely won't need a TV, but there are things that are smaller and more convenient." After he said that, a tablet appeared in his hand.
"This is called a tablet. I can still watch TV shows with it. It's even more convenient than a TV."
Fu Ling is a man of action. He opened the tablet in front of Xuanyuan Gen and found the drama he was watching. Soon, sound came from the tablet.
Turning the screen towards Xuanyuan Gen, his eyes widened. Although the screen was not as big as a TV, it was light and easy to carry.
His eyes were immediately drawn to the tablet. He placed the instant noodle bucket on the coffee table, stood up, walked over to Fu Ling, and asked somewhat embarrassedly, "Can I borrow this to take a look?"
Fu Ling handed it to him generously: "Of course, you can find anything you want to see here. This one needs to be charged. You can see the battery level indicator in the upper right corner. If it runs out of power, just charge it. It doesn't matter if you don't have electricity over there. I have a solar charger that will automatically charge in the sun."
Xuanyuan Gen was very excited after hearing this: "Then can you sell this to me?"
"sure!"
Xuanyuan Gen was about to put the tablet away like a treasure, but Fu Ling stopped him: "Wait, I can't give this to you!"
The hand holding the tablet froze in place, with a mixture of surprise and confusion in his eyes.
"I'll buy you one later. I have the information inside." Fu Ling explained.
"I see. I'll return this to you then. Thank you, Miss Fu." Xuanyuan Gen reluctantly handed the tablet back to Fu Ling.
After returning the tablet to Fu Ling, Xuanyuan Gen continued to pick up the instant noodles. After a while, the noodles became soft and lost their excellent taste.
Despite this, Xuanyuan Gen still ate with relish.
Seeing that Fu Ling was still looking at him, he didn't seem to have any intention of leaving.
He turned around suspiciously and asked, "Miss Fu, is there anything else?"
"No rush, you eat first, and then I'll take you somewhere." As he said that, he sat down on another single sofa and looked at the TV.
Xuanyuan Gen was watching a costume drama that told the story of how Lord Di and Xiao Fangfang solved one complicated case after another.
Xuanyuan Gen was so engrossed in watching that he finally finished his instant noodles.
"We can go."
Although he had seen it before, it had been so long, but he still found it very interesting to watch again. Fu Ling decided to take some time to review it.
He stood up and looked away from the TV.
Xuanyuan Gen picked up the remote control and pressed the pause button, planning to continue watching when he came back.
"The place we're going is a bit far." She grabbed his wrist and disappeared in an instant.
Appearing in the cemetery, Xuanyuan Gen was wondering where he was when his eyes reached the front. His expression became dull, and memories flooded back like a spring...
"Your Majesty! I am on this journey, and my life or death is uncertain, but I have no regrets! I will dedicate myself to the Xuanyuan Dynasty until my death, and will do my utmost to rescue Your Majesty! I will not allow treacherous villains to harm Your Majesty in the slightest!"
This was the last time Xuanyuan Gen saw General Zhenbei. He was fifty-six years old, in the prime of his life. General Zhenbei was still in his prime, with outstanding martial arts skills, loyal and courageous, and he devoted his life to the Xuanyuan Dynasty.
He had never witnessed the battle with Ouyang Yuan...
…When we met again, he had already been made into a terracotta warrior, and one could still vaguely make out some of the outline of General Zhenbei during his lifetime.
Xuanyuan Gen was trembling all over as he slowly moved closer to the terracotta warriors. Even though it was only a few steps away, he found it extremely difficult to take each step.
He walked up to the figurine in a daze, tears streaming down his face, "General Zhenbei? Is that you?"
There is no wind, but the breeze blows on my body, bringing a bit of chill.
"General Zhenbei, I am incompetent. If I hadn't been so weak and vulnerable, how could we have ended up like this? You should have been promoted to higher positions, not killed! It's all my fault. I am guilty!"
Xuanyuan Gen knelt on the ground and repented.
The wind picked up, stirring up a cloud of dust.
"General Zhenbei, soldiers! The Imperial Preceptor has been executed. I will not be weak this time. I will recover everything I have lost. Rest in peace. You are all pillars of the nation. I will erect immortal tablets for you for the world to admire."
