Controlling mountains and rivers since the Warring States Period

Chapter 347 Liu Qin
"My next wish!"

"You picked two coconuts for me to quench my thirst!"

He Bo got up expressionlessly, walked around, came to a coconut tree, and then leaned against the tree, enjoying the coolness of the sea breeze.

of course,

The spirits lost on the deserted island did not forget to urge others to fulfill their wishes as soon as possible.

He raised his hand and conjured a long whip, lashing it at the thing lying beside him, which resembled a dead pig, and said viciously:
"Go!"

"Do you still want some sweet drink?!"

The thing that had been whipped writhed pitifully, then covered the spot where it had been hit and got up.

He also said:
"Let's pick coconuts!"

Why are you yelling so loudly?

He Bo only responded with a cold look, cracking the whip in his hand.

Liu Qin saw it,

My heart skipped a beat, and I dared not delay any longer.

He sniffed, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, picked up the long pole that the ghost had conjured, and began to diligently knock down the coconuts.

A series of "bang bang bang" sounds rang out.

After a while,
Then a round, hard coconut fell down and smashed into the soft sand, creating a crater the size of a bowl.

Liu Qin ran over, picked it up, and then hesitantly handed it to the ghost.

He hoped that after completing this task,
You can take a break now.

But He Bo did not let him go.

He coldly took the coconut, gently poked at it with his fingers, and created an opening so that the sweet coconut water could flow out.

"There's another one!"

Liu Qin's expectations were thus dashed.

He could only continue knocking on the coconuts with tears in his eyes.

While working hard,
He also said:
"If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have preferred to jump into the sea and drown myself!"

……

Liu Qin

They were descendants of Liu Xian, the crown prince of Wu, who crossed the sea to the south.

With the assistance of the old ministers left by his father,

In addition, the ocean currents were calm and the sea breeze was gentle at the time.

He drifted all the way to a large island in the southern part of the Zhuxia continent, where he conquered the barbarians and established a simple country called "Overseas Wu Kingdom".

then,

Liu Xian sat in his crude palace, proudly declaring to his subjects:
"This is merely the first step for our Great Wu to conquer the world and rule the Nine Provinces!"

"Once I have had some time to recuperate, I will assemble a fleet to launch a counterattack on the mainland and thoroughly humiliate the Han Dynasty that once brought me so much suffering!"

finished,

Liu Xian lay down and ordered several rather beautiful women from the southern barbarians to fan him.

As for heading north to restore Wu and avenge the defeat?

I've already said it.
We need to rest and recuperate!
Wait until Liu Xian has rested enough before doing such important things!

Those unruly people on the northern continent,
The army that supported the imperial court suppressed his Great Wu.
Shouldn't we let them wait for the royal army to return south for a few more years?
then,

Liu Xian's trip resulted in a decade or more of stagnation.

During this period, all the senior ministers who had assisted him passed away.
No one could help Liu Xian appease the people and win over talent anymore.

The only thing that reassured the veteran officials was

The barbarians on this large island are mostly lazy and docile, unable to understand etiquette and tribal consensus.

Although Liu Xian had flaws such as being gluttonous, lazy, frivolous, irritable, lustful, and greedy,
But compared to the original chieftains of the barbarians...

He actually has the appearance of a benevolent ruler!

In addition, there were more than 300 people who followed them south that year. Over the decades, they have multiplied into a large population, which is enough to suppress the barbarians who are like a pile of loose sand here.

Thinking of this,
Governing such a place shouldn't be too difficult.

just,

Liu Xian always has to pull off some funny antics.

When he was old and his teeth were loose,
I really enjoy picking on the chefs who cook for me.

If Liu Xian was dissatisfied with the food, he would summon the cook, roll up his sleeves, and personally beat and kick him.

then,

He would put the cook back so that the other person could continue serving him.

But how could the chef, covered in bruises, possibly tolerate such an insult?
After enduring several beatings,

The cook finally pulled out his cleaver, which he used to slaughter livestock, and stabbed Liu Xian.

The founder of the overseas Wu Kingdom immediately clutched his wound and collapsed, dying on the spot.

The King of Wu died suddenly in public.

The Kingdom of Wu then launched a fierce battle for the throne.

Liu Xian's dozens of sons fought amongst themselves, eventually leaving the court vulnerable and allowing powerful ministers to seize control of the government.

The powerful minister deposed and killed two puppet kings of Wu, and then believed that Liu Qin was as intelligent as his father and was a rare "ruler who could do nothing," so he supported him to take the throne.

In the following year,

The powerful minister also believed that Liu Qin was truly "as virtuous as ever," and that his presence in the palace was "an eyesore." Therefore, he deposed him and released him onto a nearby island to help him return to nature.

The latter,
That was where He Bo landed. When they met...

He Bo was controlling his canned food as it bounced wildly on the ground.

Liu Qin was wandering aimlessly in the woods of the small island, acting like a wild man.

His shoes were worn out.

My hands and feet were covered in painful, itchy cuts from the grass on the island.
His stomach rumbled loudly, and the youngest son of the late king cried loudly from hunger.

When a shiny white jar bounced past him,
Liu Qin thought he was hallucinating from hunger.

He rushed over, grabbed He Bo's can of food, and said:
“Change!”

"Give me some food!"

"I'm starving, but I can't even imagine eating a piece of meat!"

I'm so useless!

Liu Qin's face,
Tears welled up instantly, tears of immense pain streaming down her face as she realized the truth about herself.

He Bo, inside the jar, was also shocked by this intense emotion.

He quickly floated out and appeared in front of Liu Qin.

Liu Qin shed even more tears as a result.

He said:
"Damn it!"

"And it's not even food!"

He Bo stepped forward and slapped him hard, bringing him back to his senses.

After gathering a few sour wild fruits to feed Liu Qin and keep him alive,
He Bo then introduced himself:
"I am a spirit or deity who was appointed to this place by the River God of the Central Plains."

Although he wasn't even sure which island this was.
but that's okay,

When you go out, your identity is given by yourself!
Seeing his light, translucent body, Liu Qin immediately believed him, cried out, rushed over, and hugged He Bo, sobbing:
"I want to eat!"

"I want to eat meat!"

"I want to go home!"

He Bo then cried with him, saying that he also wanted to return to the Central Plains.

Things that originated and grew here
Only seabirds and monkeys
Even ghosts and gods wouldn't want to stay in this wretched place, sunbathing every day!

after that,

The two sides gradually became familiar with each other.

Liu Qin's true nature was also fully exposed.
This made He Bo very dissatisfied.

Because Liu Qin believes that

He Bo, as a powerful and kind-hearted ghost,

We should take better care of ourselves, this fragile mortal.
At worst, I can wait until I return to the Kingdom of Wu, reclaim the throne, and build a magnificent temple for Him as a way of repaying Him!

But He Bo felt that...

With only one clone adrift overseas, and the magical power that the main body had prepared in advance not knowing how long it would last, how could it possibly be wasted?
Liu Qin has hands and feet.
Why not go hunt and fish yourself to fill your stomach?
not to mention,
This kid still has the nerve to ask me to help him restore his kingdom.

He patted his chest and promised the ghosts and gods:
"Once I successfully restore my kingdom, I will appoint you as the Grand Marshal of the Army!"

For this,

He Bo slowly raised his index and middle fingers with one hand and spread his fingers out with the other, facing Liu Qin. Then, under the other's puzzled gaze, he kicked him.

"If you want it,"

"Go get it yourself!"

"Don't you know the rules?"

In the days that followed,
To conserve mana,

In order to fulfill Liu Qin's wish,
In order to get himself a job as a water god in what is likely Luzon Island
He Bo began to urge Liu Qin on.

Whether I can become the Water Lord of Luzon depends entirely on you!

He pulled Liu Qin over and spoke to him earnestly.

Liu Qin trembled as he tried to refuse.

But He Bo said, "No way!"

"You must grant my wish!"

then,

With tears in his eyes, Liu Qin began his struggle.

After he had gathered enough coconuts for the lazier, but more powerful, demon,

Liu Qin then huddled under the shade of a tree to wipe away her tears.

Seeing this, He Bo snorted and told him to come over quickly, and handed him an opened coconut.

Liu Qin said, feeling wronged, "I want to drink meat soup now, not sweet water."

He Bo glared at him. "Having it is enough. How dare you be picky?"

Liu Qin, fearing his tyranny, could only accept it with a pout.

He took a sip from the coconut.
Then my eyes lit up instantly.

Ah!
It tastes like meat broth!

This ghost is actually a kind person!

beside,

He Bo, noticing the change in Liu Qin's expression, couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He also wanted to be like his original self, detached from many things, enjoying the service of his servants, and being a happy, carefree person.

But now,
Where did he get the conditions?
We're forced to fight!
