Chapter 5 Are there really gods?
Chapter 5 Are there really gods?
Su Xing's face was full of helplessness.
He really didn't expect that he only created an unusual birth phenomenon, but Ying Zichu and Han Ni in front of him actually worshipped him as the reincarnation of a god!
Not only were they filled with awe, the maids and guards waiting outside the hall also looked at him with awe.
In awe, he, the tiny baby, sat on the futon.
Because they also witnessed the scene of his birth.
Just as Su Xing was thinking, his adoptive father Ying Zichu was offering sacrifices in awe while saying some unrealistic words.
"God, may my son bless us, may the Qin Kingdom have good weather and good harvests, may I live a hundred years and be immortal..."
Looking at Ying Zichu who was expecting something in front of him, and seeing him muttering to himself and saying some big truths that could only come out in daydreams, Su Xing quietly rolled his eyes.
What if he is a wishing machine?
If he really had this ability, why would he come to this hellhole during the Warring States Period?
Thinking of this, Su Xing ignored his cheap father's prayers and thought, "Next, how should I increase my strength..."
Only by becoming a first-level extraordinary evolver can you escape conscription!
"I don't know if there are any methods of cultivation in this Spring and Autumn and Warring States period?"
Su Xing was in deep thought.
"Taoism, and all the other schools of thought..."
If not, that would be difficult, and he might have to find a way to figure it out on his own.
However, maybe it is not a difficult task for him?
Looking at Tian Zi in front of him, Su Xing still felt somewhat confident.
【Extraordinary Insight: Unimaginable Insight】
Not long ago, he had comprehended the innate fetal breathing method and the Qin language, which enabled him to be born with a physique that was easy for an infant and he could even speak.
Perhaps it is not difficult to figure out the method of cultivation on your own?
Su Xing was thinking about where he should start his practice.
Mental or physical?
However, before practicing, there is one thing that needs to be dealt with.
His gaze turned to his parents who were still burning incense and praying in front of him. Looking at their awe-inspiring attitude, he fell into silence.
Since it has come to this, we can only make the best of it!
Maybe I should do something to maintain my image?
Just then, a maid hurried in from outside the hall.
When she came in, she first raised her head cautiously, glanced at him on the mat with awe, and then quickly lowered her head.
He reported respectfully, "Lord Lu wants to see you."
After saying that, Ying Zichu said, "Please invite Mr. Lu in."
The maid responded and hurried out of the palace.
After a while, she came to Lu Buwei and two guards and took them to the palace.
On the way, the maid Qiu Ling led the way in front, and then she thought of something and carefully reminded Lu Buwei and the other two behind her.
"Lord Lu, when you enter the palace later, you must not be disrespectful, lest you offend that young master, the little god!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Buwei, who had been delayed by some things and had just rushed to Huayang Palace to discuss with Ying Zichu how to deal with the rumors about the gods, was stunned.
The two guards following behind him also had confusion in their eyes.
Ying Zichu even confused his own servants and made them believe the rumors spread by the gods?
Even their own people are to be fooled and confused?
Lu Buwei and the two guards couldn't help but frown.
Just when Lu Buwei wanted to ask something, Qiu Ling had already brought them out of the palace.
Seeing this, Lu Buwei had no choice but to suppress his doubts and walked towards the palace, ready to ask Ying Zichu in person what was going on.
As for the two guards, they stayed outside the palace and watched curiously as Lord Lu walked into the palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, Lu Buwei was stunned by the scene before him.
Various sacrificial items were placed in the hall. Ying Zichu and the other man were kneeling on the ground, praying to a child on a cushion.
This scene made Lu Buwei frown subconsciously and he wanted to say something.
However, before he could say anything, seeing him come in, Ying Zichu quickly stood up and walked towards him.
Holding Lü Buwei's hand, Ying Zichu said with a smile, "Sir, you are here. Come, come, come, let's pray for my son together, and let my son protect you too!"
Hearing this, Lu Buwei frowned even more and wanted to say something.
But at this moment, something happened that shocked him and Ying Zichu and his wife. The child sitting on the mat suddenly opened his eyes.
He turned directly towards them and whispered, "Are you Lu Buwei?"
"A merchant from Puyang, Wei State, who bought cheap and sold dear in his early years and accumulated a fortune of thousands of taels. Later, he met my father, who was a hostage in Handan, Zhao State, and helped him escape back to Qin State?"
After these words were spoken, the palace fell into silence.
Lu Buwei, Ying Zichu and Han Ni were all shocked when they saw the child suddenly saying these words.
Even the maids and guards outside the palace covered their mouths in surprise.
What shocked Lu Buwei was that the newborn baby in front of him could speak clearly and seemed very intelligent.
As for the fact that he told his own story, he didn't think much about it and just thought that it was Ying Zichu and his wife who told him.
However, Ying Zichu and his wife standing by knew clearly that they had never discussed Lu Buwei's affairs in front of their godly son, let alone their servants.
So, how did he know about Lu Buwei?
Reveal all his deeds in one go?
Both of them were filled with surprise.
At this time, Lü Buwei calmed down and murmured doubtfully, "Is it true that people are born knowing it?"
Even a newborn baby can speak. What is going on?
Thinking about this, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Yi Ren, did you tell your son about me?"
Just when he thought he would hear a positive answer, he saw Ying Zichu and the other man shaking their heads blankly.
The next second, Ying Zichu said in a daze, "I have never told my son about you."
After the words were spoken, Lu Buwei was stunned and heard the hidden meaning in the words.
A chill suddenly came from his back.
Could it be...
Are there really gods and ghosts in the world?
He couldn't help but think of the rumors he had heard in Xianyang City before.
It is rumored that the child in front of him is a god. He can walk and speak as soon as he landed on the ground. He points to the sky with one hand and to the ground with the other. The first thing he says is, "I am the only one who is supreme in heaven and on earth!"
"Are there really gods in the world?"
Lu Buwei was at a loss.
Originally he didn't believe the absurd and incredible rumors he had heard before, but now he couldn't help but believe them.
Just as he was in doubt, the eyes of Ying Zichu and his wife beside him became more and more enthusiastic, especially Ying Zichu, who was filled with excitement. Did they really give birth to a god-like son?
Thinking of this, his body began to tremble with excitement.
Thinking of something, he prayed to his son in front of him, "My son, you must bless me to become the King of Qin!"
Ambition and desire were revealed in his eyes.
Han Ni, who was standing by, was also full of anticipation when she heard this.
Lu Buwei looked at the two of them and shook his head, wanting to persuade them not to have such unrealistic ideas.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Su Xing, who was sitting on the mat, fell into deep thought after hearing what Ying Zichu said.
His mind couldn't help but recall the information about Qin Shi Huang's father Ying Zichu that he had seen in textbooks, television, and movies in his previous life.
Then he calculated the current year.
The next second, he spoke.
In a childish and mysterious voice, he said,
"In another six years, you will become the King of Qin."
He read from the script word for word, and based on his memory, he described the life trajectory of Ying Zichu.
However, what seemed to him to be a casual remark was not the case to Lu Buwei, Ying Zichu and others, as well as the maids and guards who were quietly listening to the sounds in the palace.
They were shocked and terrified when they thought about it carefully.
The words of the children on the cushion made them think a lot.
Is this really a person who is born divine, a god who has descended to earth and is endowed with divine powers, or who has divine eyes that can see through people's life and death, misfortunes and blessings?
Or is it the little god in front of him who can make his words come true and change the future of his biological father Ying Zichu with just a word?
Directly make him the King of Qin six years later?
Thinking of this, they felt it was unbelievable.
Not to mention them, even the adoptive father Ying Zichu, who was involved in the incident, was stunned when he heard it.
He pointed at himself in disbelief and asked, "I will be the King of Qin in six years?"
Although he prayed to his son in front of him, he only held some thoughts and hopes, and never thought that he could really become the King of Qin.
The one sitting on the throne of Qin now is his grandfather.
He had a father who was Lord An Guojun and more than twenty brothers. How could he become the King of Qin?
"How could I become the King of Qin in just six years?"
Ying Zichu was worried and wanted to believe the words of the son of the god in front of him, but no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't convince himself.
Not only did he not believe it, even Lu Buwei and Han Ni standing by did not believe that Ying Zichu would become the King of Qin six years later.
Under normal circumstances, how could Ying Zichu skip his grandfather, the King of Qin, and his father, An Guojun, and ascend the throne to become the King of Qin?
Unless their son, the god, really has the ability to make his words come true!
The current King of Qin and An Guojun died one after another!
This is possible!
How else is it possible?
Of course, they only think about making their words come true.
After calming down a little, they felt that this speculation was a bit exaggerated. Even if it was really a god, it was unbelievable that his words would come true!
They were surprised and guessed that this was impossible, but the fact was just the opposite. It was so bizarre.
Su Xing was in deep thought.
A few years later, the elderly King Zhao of Qin passed away, and the throne of Qin became vacant. An Guojun ascended the throne, but he died suddenly after only three days in office. Then it was the turn of his adoptive father Ying Zichu.
This is such a bizarre coincidence that no one would believe it if they told you about it unless you experienced it yourself.
Even if you have experienced it yourself, you will probably still be suspicious and have all kinds of conspiracy speculations in your mind.
So at this moment, Lu Buwei, Ying Zichu and Han Ni did not believe this.
At this time, Ying Zichu murmured, "This should be my son's young age, so he is just making nonsense, right?"
Lu Buwei, Han Ni, the maids and guards beside them nodded secretly.
Even gods may have a side that plays tricks on people!
It's impossible that what you say will come true, right?
Seeing their expressions, Su Xing didn't say anything else and closed his eyes.
As time goes by, the truth will emerge.
Seeing him close his eyes, Lu Buwei came back to his senses from a series of events and suddenly remembered something.
He quickly said to Ying Zichu, "The news that your son is a god has spread throughout Xianyang City. I'm sure the King of Qin already knows about it. How are you going to deal with this, Yiren?"
Ying Zichu was stunned.
Lu Buwei continued, "The king will definitely test you. If he can't find out anything, he will think you are spreading rumors and causing trouble..."
Upon hearing this, Ying Zichu instantly understood what he meant.
Although the son in front of him was definitely a god and he had seen miracles before, the old King of Qin had never seen one and would definitely doubt the truth of this matter.
If the King of Qin fails to find out anything and thinks that he is cheating, he will definitely not have an easy time in the future.
Ying Zichu looked worried.
Just as several people in the palace were thinking about how to deal with this matter, Su Xing, who was sitting on the mat, naturally heard their conversation.
Since they already think I'm a god, I can only make the best of it and continue pretending.
Thinking of this, he pondered for a while, then said calmly, "I can teach you a few things. You can tell me the truth. I give them to you."
When Ying Zichu saw the taciturn and mysterious son of god speak, he looked puzzled.
Soon, Su Xing asked Ying Zichu to bring an outdated brush that had not been improved at that time. After dipping it in ink, he started painting on the ground.
After a while, he painted on the ground of the palace the curved plows, water wheels and other farming tools that saved manpower and animal power from the Tang Dynasty and Eastern Han Dynasty in a modern realistic style.
With the help of his extraordinary understanding and talent, all this was not difficult for him.
Gradually, lifelike pictures of utensils with exquisite lines appeared on the floor of the hall.
Ying Zichu and others also showed surprise on their faces.
Although they didn't know what these things were, they felt that they were somewhat extraordinary just by looking at the extremely realistic composition.
Ying Zichu thought in amazement, "This kind of painting that looks like a real thing, only my son, who is a god, can draw it, right?"
Soon, Su Xing stopped, pointed to the picture on the ground and explained it briefly.
"These things are farming tools. They can greatly save manpower and animal power during farming and increase the yield of crops..."
Ying Zichu and the others looked at each other with surprise and doubt in their eyes.
These little things can actually help with farming and increase crop yields?
Food is a scarce commodity even for their Great Qin. Many Qin people go hungry every year. If these things really have this effect, they must be something of ingenuity!
"But are these curved plows, water wheels and other things really as powerful as my son said?"
"Such a precious thing was invented so easily?"
Looking at his little son who was leaning back on the cushion with his eyes closed, he could hardly believe it.
Is this the God?
