98: Valiant old Qin! For the country and the people!
"Kid!"
"Beneath the space that sealed me, there seems to be another space."
"Inside, there should be some books that these sorcerers took with them when they fled back then. These books should be the only surviving copies in the world after Little Ying Zheng's book burning!"
Ao Yu smiled slightly at Wu Tian.
"Find them..."
"It should help restore the true history of Huaxia today!"
"..."
"What?"
Wu Tian's eyes widened, and a monstrous wave rose in his heart as he looked at Ao Yu, asking in disbelief!
"After the book burning back then, there were still some books that weren't destroyed?"
"Under the space that sealed you?!"
"Mm!"
Ao Yu nodded.
He completely changed his previous arrogant and frivolous demeanor, and instead spoke softly and seriously to Wu Tian.
"Actually, speaking of the burning of books and burying of scholars back then..."
A cold sneer flashed in Ao Yu's eyes.
"I guess, in today's history, Little Ying Zheng is probably universally condemned, right?"
"Uh..."
Wu Tian was stunned.
Then he nodded awkwardly.
"Brother Yu, I'm not very educated, but it seems that's what everyone on the internet says..."
"Shouldn't it be so?"
"Heh heh..."
Ao Yu sneered disdainfully.
"Of course, not only is it not like that, it's actually miles apart!"
"What a huge joke!"
"It's ridiculously funny!"
Wu Tian: ..."Cough cough..."
Clearing his throat softly, Wu Tian adopted a posture of eager learning, his eyes wide like a curious baby eager for knowledge, looking at Ao Yu and asking.
"Then, Brother Yu."
"What's the real truth about the burning of books and burying of scholars?"
"Could you tell us about it?"
"Heh heh..."
"Then I'll tell you about it!"
Ao Yu was very satisfied with Wu Tian's studious attitude. He immediately cleared his throat and slowly began to recount the events of that year to Wu Tian.
And just as Ao Yu began to speak... historians from all over the world learned through various channels that Ao Yu was about to reveal the truth about the burning of books and burying of scholars. They all opened the live stream, sat on their small stools, and stared at Ao Yu with eager anticipation, waiting for him to begin.
At this moment... Dragon Country!
Jiangning Historical Research Institute.
Professor Li Yulin was excitedly sitting in front of his computer, holding a notebook in his hand, staring intently at the screen.
"Xiao Li!"
"Turn the volume up to maximum!"
"Maximum?!"
The young man called Xiao Li was stunned for a moment and confirmed again.
"Mm!"
"Maximum!"
Li Yulin's eyes were fixed on the screen as he nodded.
"Okay..."
"Alright."
Xiao Li cautiously looked at the engrossed Dr. Li Yulin, silently adjusted the volume to maximum, and then slowly turned up the amplification equipment next to him.
"Xiao Li?"
"If you've adjusted it, then come over and listen with me to this shocking historical truth from a thousand years ago!"
Li Yulin was excited!
"Uh..."
"Well, Professor, my eyesight is good, I can see it even standing here!"
"No need to be so close!"
Xiao Li chuckled.
Not only did he not move closer, he deliberately put some distance between them.
"You brat..."
Li Yulin rolled his eyes and didn't mind, then leaned his head closer to the computer screen again!
Suddenly!
"Hahahahahahaha!"
Ao Yu's unrestrained laughter came from the live stream!
Through the computer's built-in speakers, amplified by the external sound system, the deafening, demonic laughter instantly echoed throughout the entire research institute!
It lingered in Li Yulin's ears!
Li Yulin was stunned.
After a long while... Li Yulin gnashed his teeth and cursed.
"Damn it..."
"Is this Dragon Vein out of his mind?"
..."Hahahahaha!"
The Dragon Vein first let out a deafening laugh, then lowered his head and said helplessly to Wu Tian in a soft voice.
"Actually..."
"The beginning of all things still starts with a ridiculous idea of Little Ying Zheng!"
Ao Yu shook his head.
"Back then, Little Ying Zheng saw me and was instantly amazed.
"From then on, he always felt that this world was not that simple. If there were Dragon Veins, there must be immortals, and if there were immortals, he could certainly achieve immortality."
"Plus..."
Ao Yu sighed.
"These sorcerers really had some tricks up their sleeves."
"So Little Ying Zheng didn't listen to my advice and sought out these sorcerers, wanting to refine an elixir of immortality!"
"Elixir of immortality?"
Wu Tian was stunned.
"Yes!"
Ao Yu nodded.
Then he sneered coldly.
"How can there be immortality in this world, and where would an elixir of immortality come from?"
"There aren't even the ingredients for an elixir of immortality..."
"How could one refine an elixir of immortality?"
"But..."
"These audacious sorcerers actually took on this task!"
Ao Yu said coldly.
"This group of hateful sorcerers not only lacked the ability to successfully refine the elixir of immortality but also secretly discussed how Little Ying Zheng was a fool and an extravagant tyrant."
"Little Ying Zheng, in a fit of rage, gathered sorcerers from all over the world and buried them alive in Xianyang!"
"Heh heh..."
Ao Yu sneered coldly.
"If you ask me, these sorcerers truly deserved to die!"
"Hiss..."
Wu Tian suddenly understood!
"So, what Ying Zheng buried alive back then weren't Confucian scholars, but those hateful sorcerers?"
"Right!"
Ao Yu nodded.
"And it was also because of the sorcerers' incident that Ying Zheng realized the importance of unifying thought!"
"Therefore, in order to unify thought, Little Ying Zheng only burned the historical records of the other six states, and..."
"As for the books of the Hundred Schools of Thought, they were merely confiscated and stored in the Apang Palace!"
"It's not like the history written by that scoundrel Liu Bang, who killed Confucian scholars and burned important cultural books!"
"That's nonsense!"
Ao Yu cursed through gritted teeth..."So that's how it is, so that's how it is!"
Professor Li Yulin, who was constantly rubbing his ears, was extremely excited, his trembling hands furiously writing in his notebook!
"I knew it!"
"Ying Zheng was an emperor of a thousand ages!"
"The sudden unification of the six states made it most susceptible to disintegration. Li Si's rule by law was a good thing!"
"The downfall of the empire was not Ying Zheng's fault!"
"It should be that the remnants of the six states refused to die!"
"The Dragon Veins of the world were stolen!"
"Hahaha..."
Professor Li Yulin shed tears of excitement!
"The truth is finally revealed, our Huaxia's Qin Shi Huang was not a tyrant!"
"Moreover..."
"When the Qin Dynasty fell!"
"Three hundred thousand Old Qin people followed Tian to attack the Xiongnu in the north, guarding the Great Wall, and five hundred thousand troops defended against Wu and Yue in the south, unifying Southern Huaxia!"
"This..."
Li Yulin grew more and more excited as he spoke!
"This is the truly mighty Old Qin, for the country and for the people!"
"For the country and for the people!"
...Just as historians in the Dragon Country, like Professor Li Yulin, were beating their chests and weeping uncontrollably, and the people of the Dragon Country in front of their screens were shedding tears of emotion, reminiscing about Ying Zheng's glorious achievements of that year..."Click..."
A quarter of an hour had passed!
Ao Yu had already recovered 80% of his original vitality.
The resentful energy confinement... was slowly shattering!
