In Long Cheng's horrified eyes, the face exposed under the bandage looked so familiar yet unfamiliar.
Because...this is clearly his face!
!
Only then did he realize why his eyes felt familiar before. It turned out that the shape of these eyes was exactly the same as his!
Seeing Long Cheng's frightened look, Wang Xuanling looked pleased.
"Eviscerating bones and cutting flesh, changing shapes and forms. I have to say that Elder Gong's techniques are really wonderful. Look, is there any difference between you and me now?"
Wang Xuanling faced Long Cheng and clasped his chin with her hand, moving his face back and forth. After such a comparison, the two faces were indeed very familiar. Although there were still some flaws, they were enough to look fake and real.
After all, ordinary people are not very good at recognizing faces.
If a person wants to remember a person, facial features are important, but if you want to remember someone for a long time, you can't just rely on the face.
Facial features, voice characteristics, behavioral characteristics, body characteristics...
Being familiar with a person relies on the information memory formed by the combination of the above characteristics.
Facial features do not account for much.
"Oh, by the way, there's something else..."
Wang Xuanling slapped his forehead, and then began to take off the dragon robe from Long Cheng's eyes in despair.
Presumptuous! Presumptuous!
Don't touch my dragon robe! Wang Xuanling! You are an immature dog!
!I treat you well! I treat you well!
!
Long Cheng cursed wildly in his heart, but all the bones in his body were removed and he couldn't move, and his Adam's apple was broken. He couldn't move his vocal cords, otherwise the bamboo tube would scratch his throat, causing him endless pain.
Therefore, he could only watch as Wang Xuanling took off his dragon robe and then stripped him naked.
Then Wang Xuanling also stripped naked in front of him.
Only then did Long Cheng realize that the Wang Xuanling in front of him was not only similar in face, but also in body shape.
Even his little belly, this guy actually has it!
It can be seen that Wang Xuanling's idea is no longer a matter of a day or two.
Wang Xuanling quickly put on the clothes she took off from Long Cheng.
It fit perfectly, and Wang Xuanling even turned around in front of him. Seeing Long Cheng's angry eyes and split canthus, his heart felt as sweet as drinking honey.
"Ahem...Wang Xuanling...Wang Xuanling..."
It's not over yet.
After changing clothes, Wang Xuanling showed off another wave of ventriloquism in front of Long Cheng.
The sound coming out of his mouth was almost exactly the same as Long Cheng's!
After Longcheng saw all this, he understood that he was doomed this time.
If at first he hoped that someone outside would notice what was going on inside, but until Wang Xuanling changed clothes, Liu Bo's figure outside did not move, he knew that since Wang Xuanling had already thought about taking action, he must have calculated everything long ago.
only……
Why!
!
Wang Xuanling saw the confusion in Long Cheng's eyes and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Oh my god...what's there to be confused about? Chu Longcheng, Chu Longcheng, ever since you became emperor, you no longer have the same mind as before. Otherwise, how could you have ended up in this situation?"
"God's Coming"
"Why? How many people in the world don't want to sit on this throne? You can sit on it, why can't I?"
How do you sit??!
This is the world of the Chu family!
!
You treacherous official and traitor! I am the son of destiny, and I am ordered by heaven, how can you do this!
!
You will be punished by God!
God and man together defeat it!
!
Wang Xuanling completely ignored Chu Longcheng's cannibalistic expression. As he spoke, he put his clothes on Chu Longcheng's body, and waited until the last black robe was put on.
He took out another bottle from the sleeve of his black robe.
He poured out some white paste-like liquid from the bottle. He picked out a strand of black hair from the liquid on his swollen forehead and spread it on it.
After applying the white paste, the strand of black hair turned white in a matter of seconds.
Just like the white hair on his forehead before.
And he himself directly pulled out the white hair on his forehead.
It's not that it's uprooted, but the white hair is stuck to the forehead!
After several months of careful management, this gray hair has long become his signature feature.
Now after pulling out the gray hair and dyeing Chu Longcheng's hair white, there is only one final step left to completely replace their identities.
Wang Xuanling thought like this, and squatted down again, with his usual smiling expression on his face, but his fingers slowly stretched out, and then gently touched the air vent above the bamboo tube...
Slowly block the hole...
Long Cheng's complexion began to look ugly, his eyes slowly began to become bloodshot, the feeling of suffocation came to his head again, and the fear of death enveloped him again.
"Uh...uh..."
With the bamboo tube stuffed into his throat, Longcheng tried hard to breathe in fresh air.
But as soon as he wanted to inhale, the suction force generated caused the hole to be tightly sucked to the surface of the bamboo tube, and he couldn't get a trace of oxygen.
When Longcheng's eyes began to look around the lake, he heard the last few words said by Wang Xuanling.
"It's almost done. For the sake of safety, I'd better send you to see your father as soon as possible. I hope you won't be too embarrassed after meeting..."
"Thank you for being so cooperative in the end. I was very happy after listening to what I said so much, so I decided to leave a whole body for you later..."
"Finally...goodbye...my crown prince..."
"I will live well for you..."
When Long Cheng heard the last sentence, he was already unconscious. He felt as if his ears were filled with water and were blocked, and his chest felt like a heavy weight was pressing on it, and it was about to explode.
The heartbeat is getting faster and faster, and the head is getting lighter and lighter, until finally...
Wang Xuanling watched Chu Longcheng suffocate to death like this. When he died, his lips were purple and his eyes were so wide that they almost bulged out, and he chuckled lightly as he looked like he was refusing to rest in peace.
Turning his head and looking at Liu Bo, who still didn't notice anything, he reached out to help the dead Chu Longcheng up. The two of them changed positions, letting Chu Longcheng lie in his original position.
He took out a small bottle from his cuff again, opened the mouth of the bottle, and carefully dripped it on Long Cheng's face and throat.
As the transparent liquid dripped from the mouth of the bottle, Long Cheng's face seemed to have been melted by sulfuric acid, the flesh and blood dissolving, revealing the bones inside.
After his face was completely unrecognizable, Wang Xuanling wrapped his face with his bandage, and the bandage oozed traces of scarlet.
Finally, he lifted his body up, put his head on his knees, put on his hood, and took out the strand of white hair from his pocket.
At this time, Chu Longcheng, as long as he didn't lift his hood and let people outside look over, they would think that he was "Wang Xuanling".
But the real Wang Xuanling, his voice perked up, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, recalling Long Cheng's previous walking postures and movements in his mind, and silently rehearsed them in the room.
In fact, he had already practiced this before, and now he had just taken a few steps, and it immediately became lifelike.
After confirming again that it was correct, Wang Xuanling looked at the door of Guanxing Pavilion, feeling both excited and a little uneasy.
As long as he successfully leaves here, from now on, he, Wang Xuanling, will no longer be Wang Xuanling!
He is Chu Longcheng!
He is the... emperor of this world!
!
Liu Bo stayed outside the pavilion conscientiously.
The style outside the observatory was noisy today.
This left only the whistling of the wind in his ears, and he could barely hear the conversation in the attic behind him.
However, as long as His Majesty's voice inside was louder, he could still react immediately and go in to serve him.
This royal scroll is a bit too profound. I didn’t expect His Majesty to trust him so much after he ascended the throne. It seems that our family will have to communicate more with him in the future.
Just as Liu Bo was thinking, he heard the sound of walking in the pavilion. He quickly turned sideways to the pavilion door and waited.
"Squeak..."
When Liu Bo saw the familiar dragon robe, he lowered his head and said in a deep voice.
"His Majesty…"
After seeing His Majesty nod, he said loudly.
"From today on, no one is allowed to approach the observatory without my permission!"
"Here!"
Liu Bo nodded in agreement.
When he was closing the door, he saw Taoist Wang kneeling in front of the table with his back to him, with a strand of white hair exposed from his hood.
For some reason, he always felt that there was something different about Taoist Wang, but he couldn't put it in words. This feeling just passed by in a flash. He slowly closed the door, and then silently left the observatory behind Emperor Chu.
.
Three days later.
Liu Bo, the eunuch who held the lamp for the Emperor of Chu, accidentally fell into a well and died. The Emperor of Chu was very sad.
Seven days later, the Queen Mother of Chu, the current Empress Dowager, thought about the late Emperor, became ill from worry, and died in depression in the palace. The Emperor of Chu cried bitterly for three days, and the whole country mourned with him.
A month later, on the day of the wedding ceremony, the original queen-in-waiting, Emperor Chu's wife Guan, was killed in the palace. The three princes, including Emperor Chu's legitimate son, and Guan were buried in a sea of fire.
The Emperor of Chu was so sad that he fainted.
From then on, in just one month, Emperor Chu became truly alone!
Rumors spread among the people, and this time it was the people's turn to say that Emperor Chu had lost his virtue and suffered this disaster.
But after all, this was a royal matter and did not affect the people below, so this statement did not spread widely.
However, when the Dawan people learned that Chu was in turmoil, the entire Xiliang suddenly changed in a short period of time.
As a result, not long after, during the mourning period of Chu State, Dawan raised troops to attack. Although Tianmen Pass resisted the main force, scattered Dawan cavalry broke into Chu State's border from other lines of defense.
Wherever they passed, people were burned, killed, looted, and devastated!
Dawan rebelled!
Both within reason and within reason, Dawan finally directly exposed their wolfish ambitions.
Moreover, it did not abide by the gentlemen's agreement on national war that was tacitly agreed by various countries at that time.
The so-called Gentlemen's Agreement of National War.
This means that when a country suffers from natural disasters, or the royal family encounters changes, or even domestic rebellions, other countries cannot take advantage of the situation and launch attacks.
This is an unwritten rule of this era.
The formation of this regulation actually involved countless blood and tears.
The fundamental purpose of this provision is to maintain the normal continuation of all human beings, reduce wars, and reduce the harm caused by wars to the population.
In the troubled times before the founding of the Chu State, the seven kingdoms stood in a powerful alliance and fought fiercely with each other in order to annex and expand. When there was no such regulation at that time, everyone was really up to every trick.
Taking advantage of natural and man-made disasters to add insult to injury is a routine operation.
As a result, once this war has no bottom line, it will basically not be able to stop. It was originally a fight between two countries, but as it continued, it turned into a melee among the seven countries. Moreover, unless the seven countries ceased the war together, otherwise this war would not be possible.
The war simply cannot stop.
The consequence of this was that the seven countries fought for ten years. When they came to their senses, nearly 30% of the population of each country had died!
Moreover, 99% of these 30% are young adults!
After discovering this situation, all countries tacitly chose to cease the war, and then this statistics revealed.
Good guy, after ten years of fighting, every country has almost wiped out all its men. Only the old, weak, women and children are left in the country, and widows' villages are everywhere.
At that time, even if the war did not continue, all countries would probably self-destruct due to lack of young adults and labor force.
After realizing this, the seven countries at that time quickly put aside their previous grievances, negotiated with each other, and ceased war for nearly ten years. The countries exchanged their needs and developed together. They first restored the population and then discussed the territory.
Moreover, the kings of various countries also formulated a gentleman's agreement regarding national war.
After all, the purpose of fighting is to share more cakes, not to smash the table together.
During the ten years when the seven countries were recuperating, because the seven countries exchanged supplies and wholeheartedly supported the development of the country, the population quickly recovered. And because of the trade between the seven countries in these ten years, the cultures of the seven countries collided, making
At that time, civilization was developing vigorously. Human civilization jumped directly from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. Pens, inks, paper and inkstones were also born in those ten years.
Historically known as the "Seven Kingdoms".
It is precisely the existence of this period of history that has led countries to treat this provision as an unspoken rule.
Just like before, Chu State suffered from severe drought, locust plague, and floods. If Kang State or Liang State took the opportunity to attack, Chu State would not only be destroyed, but at least it would be severely damaged.
But at that time, neither country took the opportunity to launch an attack. This was precisely because of this gentleman's agreement.
A country with natural disasters cannot be attacked!
Even when Chu Longcheng was here, he used the plague and just allowed the plague to develop without sending troops. The same was true.
Once a country breaks this example, all countries can join together to challenge it!
Therefore, the Dawan tribe took advantage of Chu's mourning period to launch an invasion, which was a violation of the gentleman's agreement!
They are indeed a bunch of barbarians!
!You are simply not a son of man! You are like a beast!
In the face of Dawan's invasion, there was a lot of discussion in the court and the quarrel was intense.
The rational faction said that the Emperor of Chu should contact Liang Guokang and let the two countries follow the Gentlemen's Agreement of National War to jointly send troops to attack Dawan.
The conservatives said that the current situation is chaotic, and they should first stick to Xiliang and then take advantage of it slowly.
The main war faction is just one word!
beat!
Hit his grandma!
!
Faced with such a debate between the government and the public, the Emperor of Chu, who finally sat on the high platform, finally rejected the advice of his ministers and chose...
war!
!
The Emperor of Chu said that he had already prepared for this. He had a divine army camp under his command. As long as he attacked, he would be able to kill these Dawan people without leaving any trace behind!
When the ministers below heard what Emperor Chu said, their eyes were filled with confusion.
Divine Barracks?
When did the Chu State have this secret army?
However, Emperor Chu ignored the following doubts and continued to announce the attack on Dawan. He also decided to...
