Ragnarok is born

Half asleep and half awake, Zhu Yuanzhang only felt that he had come to a place where the air was filled with impenetrable objects, where he could not see his fingers, and was full of misty mist.

Just as he was wondering, suddenly the light came on and the fog dissipated little by little, which allowed Zhu Yuanzhang to see the situation in front of him clearly.

The clear mountain springs make a pleasant sound of ding-dong, converging into a clear stream, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.

As if in the season of warm spring and flowers blooming, colorful butterflies of all kinds dance in the air, looking around, there are scenes of exotic flowers and plants everywhere.

On the green grass, there is a strange wooden sign with three big characters "Butterfly Valley" written on it.

This was born in a poor family, but eventually surpassed all heroes in the world and established the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. After quietly observing the scenery in front of him for a while, he stepped into the path among the flowers and plants.

While walking, I still have the leisure to think about what happened to me, what caused it?

Is this the so-called "thinking by day, dreaming at night"?

He is 71 years old this year. Although he spent half his life as a soldier, he has created an unprecedented foundation and established a great future.

But as an emperor, especially an emperor who holds the most power in the world, who is really not afraid of death?

Some time ago, when Zhu Yuanzhang and "Ghost King" Xu Ruowu met, the other party even hinted that he might be doomed this year.

Unless you can get the help of "Fu Jiang", it may be difficult to survive the catastrophe.

The art of emptiness and mutual understanding is the best in the world, and he has never made mistakes, and he has helped Zhu Yuanzhang to reach the top of the world, which is indelible.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid of Xu Ruowu, he conferred the title of "Mighty King" on the other party after the founding of the country; and Xu Ruowu also watched Zhu Yuanzhang's killing of heroes in these years, but stayed out of the matter, and gradually weakened his influence on the court. force.

But Zhu Yuanzhang is still very convinced of the assertion of emptiness, because it is an indisputable fact that has been verified in the past.

Therefore, when Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly saw the valley in front of him, which looked like a fairyland, he immediately had a doubt in his heart.

But the name "Butterfly Valley" is not as fairy-like as imagined, it sounds just a very plain name.

While walking, Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, "Whether it's Penglai Valley or Langya Immortal Mansion, it sounds much better than Butterfly Valley..."

"This Butterfly Valley, who named it and wrote it down?"

Suddenly, he remembered the situation when he and Xu Ruowu met for the first time.

That year he had just left Huangjue Temple and was about to defect to Guo Zixing's Red Scarf Army in Haozhou, but on the way to defect, he ran into Xu Ruowu, who was dressed in a Confucian uniform and a high crown.

When Dao Zuo met, Xu Ruo Wu glanced at him, showing a very surprised look.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was doubting himself in his heart, Xu Ruowu suddenly smiled at him, and at the same time said softly, "Little brother, in the next 20 years, you should rule the world."

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was penniless, and he even planned to go to Guo Zixing, just to have a mouthful of food, to fill his stomach, and not to starve to death.

It was never expected that if nothing came true, it would actually take less than 20 years to become the supreme founding emperor of the world.

Drive out the Tartars and restore China.

It was even evaluated as "the most righteous in the country" by later generations.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked forward slowly, but suddenly sighed silently.

Is it true that the time limit has come, and you will think of these past events that you have not remembered for decades?

After all, did you care too much about the verdict of emptiness?

It is said that King Wen of Zhou gained Taigong's reputation because of the flying bear's dream, and established a two-week 800-year history.

Could it be that the dream in front of me has a lot to do with the "Fortune General" who said nothing?

He observed carefully, trying to find clues related to "Fu Jiang" from the flowers and plants in the dream.

However, no matter how Zhu Yuanzhang investigated, he still couldn't find any useful information.

At this moment, the originally peaceful and picturesque Butterfly Valley suddenly experienced unexpected drastic changes.

In a flash of the picture, I don't know how many sturdy figures appeared out of thin air. These people were dressed in white and spoke dialects from different places, and gradually gathered towards a certain location.

Zhu Yuanzhang let these figures pass through his body, and felt a strange feeling in his heart. He felt that he had never been able to realize so clearly that he was dreaming.

But this dream is so clear that he can even remember it clearly without forgetting anything.

He followed the crowd in white clothes, along the mountain path of Butterfly Valley, and finally entered a very wide valley.

In the center of the valley, a high platform with a height of two feet was built.

Then these people formed small groups one by one according to a certain law that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know.

With the high platform as the center, everyone sat cross-legged, forming circle after circle.

Facing the high platform, he spread his hands and ten fingers, held them in front of his chest, made a shape of flying flames, and began to chant loudly.

"Burn my remnant body, the holy fire.

What joy in life, what pain in death?

Eliminate evil for good, only for light.

Joy and sorrow, all return to dust.

Pity me the world, there are so many sorrows!

Pity me the world, there are so many sorrows! "

Zhu Yuanzhang stared blankly at the solemn and solemn scene in front of him, which seemed like a religious ceremony, and felt strange in his heart.

Could it be that the lucky general that Ruowu brother annotated to me is actually a magic stick?

At this time, he suddenly made another surprising discovery.

Among the crowd at the front of the high platform, there was a very familiar face.

Although the man was also dressed in a white robe, he had a face that was unforgettable once he saw it.

I saw his chin protruding forward, like a shovel, his face was uneven, with many scars and moles, his eyes were deep-set and piercing.

No matter the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose are born with abnormalities. If you look at it separately, each part is quite ugly, but when put together on one face, there is an unexpected sense of harmony.

Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked, isn't this just me?

Moreover, he is still in the prime of life, full of vigor and vitality all over his body, not at all like his current, aging self.

Is it really "thinking by day and dreaming by night"?

It was because of the ghost king's vacuous comments that he remembered the past time?

But no matter how Zhu Yuanzhang thought over and over again, he just couldn't remember. When he was young, did he have such an experience?

Could it be that what you see in front of you is not an encounter in this life, but something from a previous life?

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was in doubt, he suddenly heard all the people in white robes in the valley cheering at the same time, "Welcome the No. 30 fourth generation leader of Zhongtu Mingjiao!"

Among the crowd, the young man who looked very similar to Zhu Yuanzhang, like the people in white robes beside him, uttered fanatical shouts and shouted towards the high platform in the center.

The gray-haired founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty finally turned his gaze to the high platform in the center.

A girl dressed in Tsing Yi, who looked only thirteen or fourteen years old, was slowly lowering her body from the void.

Zhu Yuanzhang had a strange expression on his face. Could it be that this little girl is the "blessed general" that Xu Ruowu wrote for himself?

Judging from the attitudes of the people around him towards the "girl in Tsing Yi", this is indeed a leader with a high status in a certain sect.

But isn't the so-called leader a magic stick?

And judging from the title of No.30's four-generation leader, this is a sect that has existed for a long time and has a long history.

Middle Earth Mingjiao?

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head secretly, but he has never heard of this sect?

Although in his life, he has heard of some similar titles, such as Han Lin'er who called himself "Xiaoming King" back then...

and many more?

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly turned pale and became extremely ugly.

Zhongtu Mingjiao, Xiaoming Wang, is there any relationship between the two?

In an instant, Zhu Yuanzhang almost forgot that he was still in a dream, and he wished he could immediately summon "Yinfeng" Langyan and ask him to send people to investigate.

For Zhu Yuanzhang, what happened to King Xiaoming back then was like a thorn in his heart.

Shangguan Fei left angrily because he secretly assassinated King Xiao Ming, and established the Nujiao Gang, which now firmly controls the shipping on the Yangtze River, posing a great threat to Tianfu.

Suddenly, a sharp gaze looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang was startled, followed his gaze, and just saw the girl in Tsing Yi descending from the void, and the downward trend had stopped.

Just like that, he paused in the void, unable to reach the sky, unable to descend to the ground, and assumed a posture of sitting cross-legged in the void with no support.

How can this be?

Zhu Yuanzhang felt horrified, how could anyone in the world be able to stand in the air?

Volume Five Chapter 27: Shurima, Your Emperor Has Returned

Until this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was more sure that he was really asleep.

It's just that this strange dream was a bit too real.

He even had a very strange idea, that young man who had the same appearance as himself among the white-clothed crowd, and shouted loudly like his lungs, was another Zhu Yuanzhang?

This is a very unreasonable thing, but Zhu Yuanzhang took it for granted.

The girl in Tsing Yi, who was sitting cross-legged in the void, slowly raised her little hand, and pressed down lightly.

The frantic sound stopped abruptly, immediately showing her lofty status and astonishing control in the hearts of the Butterfly Valley people.

Then Zhu Yuanzhang quietly mixed in the crowd, watching the situation in the field continue little by little.

Gradually, he understood what was happening in front of him.

It turned out to be a sect called "Mingjiao of Middle Earth", which gathered congregants from all over the country, and then assigned tasks to prepare to unify the pace, drive out the Tartars, and restore the Chinese assembly.

But what surprised Zhu Yuanzhang was that the court opposed by the "Mingjiao of China" was also the "Yuan Dynasty" established by the Mongols.

He stared blankly at the meeting held in Butterfly Valley before him, feeling absurd and grotesque in his heart.

Everyone knows that the only one who expelled the Tartars and restored China was his Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. How could it be led by a "Mingjiao of Zhongtu"?

The girl in Tsing Yi, known as the "No. 30 Fourth Generation Leader", is not a real person at all.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's memory, there has never been such a character.

From the end of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty to the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, nothing like this happened.

I don't know who constructed the dream in front of me, so that such absurd plot will appear?

Zhu Yuanzhang was full of anger. Although the reason in his heart told him that the dream in front of him was made by himself, it still made him feel extremely unbelievable.

Finally, things have reached the most critical stage.

After hearing the girl in Tsing Yi's orders one by one, the leaders of the sub-altars in various places in Zhongtu Mingjiao swore loudly that they would obey her will.

From then on, the previous situation of fighting each other will be ended, and under the unified leadership of the Tsing Yi girl leader, they will strengthen their ties and cooperate with each other.

Then began to distribute the plain cakes that had been prepared in advance, and among the jokes of some senior sect leaders, named the plain cakes "moon cakes".

Piles of bonfires in Butterfly Valley are burning brightly, and the sky is gradually brightening up.

The girl in Tsing Yi stood in front of the bonfire, looking at the many aspiring congregants in the valley, a trace of loneliness flashed across her face, and suddenly sang loudly, "Burn my remnant body, the flame is raging. What joy is there in life, why bother in death?"

When the white-clothed congregation heard the tragic song of the little leader, they couldn't help but feel tears welling up in their eyes, their emotions were high, and they said in unison, "Burn my remnant body, the holy fire is raging, what's the joy in life? What's the trouble in death, let's get rid of it for good." Evil is only due to light."

"Joy, sorrow, and sorrow, all return to dust. Pity me, the world is full of sorrows! Pity me, the world is full of sorrows!"

While singing hymns loudly, the congregation in white walked up to the girl in Tsing Yi, bowed to her, and then walked out of the valley with their heads held high, without looking back.

There is a generous and tragic atmosphere in Butterfly Valley.

The youthful version of Zhu Yuanzhang was the last group of congregants to bid farewell to the girl in Tsing Yi. The girl in Tsing Yi even asked, "Guo Rui, are you going to join the army or go into politics?"

Standing not far from these people, as if invisible, the elderly Zhu Yuanzhang, who had fulfilled his destiny and established the Ming Dynasty, was moved when he heard the address of the girl in Tsing Yi.

"Guorui" is exactly his character.

Back then when he met Xu Ruowu Dao Zuo, they decided on the status of monarch and minister for a lifetime, which Xu Ruowu gave him.

It never occurred to him that in this illusory dream, he was also called "Guo Rui".

However, who in the world can call him by his own name in person?

You know, he is the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the co-lord of the world, and he is already the most noble person in the universe, known as the Son of Heaven.
