" I've cultivated for 120 years, and my merits have been fulfilled. I've traveled with the immortals…"
Ying Zheng silently recalled these words, and could not help but feel a little longing in his heart.
If he could also be an emperor in the human world for a hundred years and then become an immortal, how wonderful would that feel?
"Your Majesty!"
Lu ignored the taboo and stepped forward.
"My master didn't have enough merit when he was young, so he wasn't recognized by the immortals.”
"But Your Majesty, you are about to destroy the six dynasties and achieve the great cause of unifying the world! How much merit is this?"
"Even immortals would have to bow respectfully to you and respect you as the human king!”
"At that time, it will only be a matter of a moment before you ascend to immortality!”
This flattery could be said to have blown Ying Zheng up to the skies!
It could be said that flattery was a compulsory course for necromancers. Without such a clever mouth to blow the king away, how could they cheat money and power?
"Good, good, good! My merit is indeed unparalleled in the world, hahaha!”
As expected, Ying Zheng laughed out loud.
He got up and went down the steps. He helped Lu up and said with a smile,
"Lu Sheng, do you know how to get to Penglai Immortal Island? Do you have a sea map?"
Hearing this question, Lu's heart thumped.
He was here! Prosperity was coming!
"How can there be a fixed path on the Immortal Island? On the vast sea, one could reach it if they were fated. If they were not fated, they would not be able to find it even if they sailed for a lifetime!”
Lu cupped his hands and said loudly,
"However, I, Lu Sheng, am willing to go out to sea for the king to find Penglai Immortal Island!”
"With my firm belief and the help of my former master, I will definitely be able to find Penglai Immortal Island and guide the king!”
"Of course, it would be best if the king personally went out to sea with us. In that case, Penglai Immortal Island would probably appear immediately, and the immortals would immediately descend the mountain to welcome them!”
His eyes were filled with conviction, his expression was holy, and he was spouting nonsense. Regardless of whether Ying Zheng believed it or not, he believed it himself!
"If I go…I will definitely see the Immortal?”
Ying Zheng was slightly moved, but he shook his head in the end and said,
"Great Qin cannot leave me, and the world cannot leave me.”
"It's better for you to go and find Penglai Immortal Island first! Perhaps the immortal will come to find me personally after knowing my merits!”
Although he believed it, he wasn't stupid enough to believe it completely and follow it foolishly.
Not to mention that the country's politics could not leave him for a day, just the sea was filled with countless dangers. As the ruler of a country, how could he stand under a dangerous wall?
It was impossible for him to go. He would never go in this lifetime.
However, he was willing to let the Immortal Soaring Cloud ride it to find him.
"Wei!"
Lu said,
"Then please give me some financial aid, Your Majesty. After I'm ready, I'll immediately set off to find Penglai Immortal Island!”
This was a blatant demand for money!
A little financial aid?
He was probably thinking of a "100 million yuan grant"!
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Where is the best place for you to go out to sea?" he asked.
"Uh…naturally, it's best to go from the Mountain Sea Country, Qi Country.”
Lu was slightly stunned and replied without hesitation,
"Immortal Master also went out to sea from the Qi Kingdom and headed east before ascending Penglai.”
Ying Zheng nodded slightly.
"Then let's wait for a while. After I conquer the Chu Country and destroy the Qi Country, you can set off!”
He smiled and said,
"At that time, the world will be unified, and my achievements will be the first in history!”
"When you set off again, you can also go out to sea without worry. If you really meet an immortal, you can also tell them about my achievements!”
Lu was stunned.
After taking down Chu, he still wanted to take down Qi?
How long would that take?
The situation of the Spring and Autumn Warring States had been maintained for hundreds of years! How could it be so easy to unify the world!
I was just bragging. You didn't really believe me, did you?
He was cursing crazily in his heart, but his face revealed a trace of worry.
"Your Majesty, I have a premonition in my heart that the best chance to ascend Penglai is to go out to sea now.”
"If I delay it for a few years or even a dozen years, I'm afraid I won't have such a great opportunity…"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng gave a cold laugh.
"Your premonition isn't that accurate, right?”
He said indifferently,
"Two years ago, you said that there was a thousand-year-old ginseng in Xiao Mountain, which was the main ingredient of the immortality medicine. In the end, I mobilized thousands of soldiers and searched for a few months, but they couldn't find it.”
"Last year, you said that there was a strange object outside the pass, but you still couldn't find it.”
"And now he says he has a premonition that he can find Penglai, hehe…"
He stared at Lu with a faint smile.
"Your Majesty, I…I…"
Lu felt as if his heart was about to be seen through. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly lowered his head.
"I'm guilty!"
"It's Lu Sheng's shallow fortune that has repeatedly delayed the king's important matters..."
Ying Zheng waved his hand and returned to his throne.
"You may leave."
He said calmly,
"After I unify the world, I will naturally arrange for you to go out to sea to search for immortals.”
"As for now, you should just stay here obediently. If there's no major progress, don't come and ask for an audience.”
"Go ahead."
With a wave of his hand, he had already given the order to leave.
"…Only."
Lu wanted to say something more, but seeing the King of Qin's lack of interest, he did not dare to say anything more, afraid of angering the temperamental King of Qin.
He could only retreat.
However, he couldn't understand. He had clearly piqued the interest of the King of Qin just now, and the atmosphere was set in place. He was about to succeed!
Why did Qin Wang's attitude change so quickly in the end, catching him off guard!
That shouldn't be…
Lu left with regret.
In the hall, music continued to be played and dance continued.
Ying Zheng held his chin and said casually,"
"Zhao Gao, do you think immortals really exist in this world?”
Zhao Gao's figure appeared behind the screen.
"The world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things. I believe there are immortals too.”
Zhao Gao knew his intentions and smiled.
"However, people like Lu Sheng are more like opportunistic people, not people who can really seek immortals.”
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, but did not comment.
"Let them do whatever they want! Let's see what they can do."
He suddenly said,
"If they can find immortals, they will be meritorious officials, and it is only right for them to be rewarded.”
"If you can't find the immortal, then you'll be sentenced to death for deceiving the emperor! No matter how much you have embezzled these years, you have to spit it out!”
Zhao Gao's pupils constricted slightly.
The King had never said such words before. He was very tolerant of necromancers!
Lu Sheng failed repeatedly, but the king still gave him wealth and let him continue to explore the immortal path.
But today…why was he suddenly so strict?
In the past few days, Zhao Gao had clearly felt that the King of Qin's mood and state had changed, but he did not know why.
This made him very uneasy.
In the past, no matter how the King of Qin moved, even if he was touring the world, the reins were always in his hands. He could completely control the whereabouts of the king! Observe his every move!
But now, Qin Wang often disappeared and escaped his control!
Zhao Gao couldn't accept such a change!
Investigate! He had to find out where the King of Qin had been when he left the palace at night!
