At King Ju Lu's banquet, it was nothing more than some pleasantries. They talked about the situation between the three dynasties and talked about the good things. They talked about the future and flattered each other. After all, flattery didn't cost any money.
Princess Qian You was completely able to handle this situation. Zhong Shan didn't say much. Instead, he took the opportunity to pick up a piece of dragon liver.
As soon as the dragon liver entered his mouth, it turned into a pure energy that rushed into Zhong Shan's body. In an instant, Zhong Shan felt his limbs and bones become smooth. A vast aura of a king brewed in his mind. It was as if he had become one with the heavens. He could look down on the world and the common people.
After being immersed for a while, Zhong Shan quickly woke up. He looked at the remaining dragon liver on the plate and sighed.
Good stuff, really good stuff. Just the bite he took just now was no less than the energy of a Regeneration Pill. Moreover, the taste was extraordinary and the aftertaste was endless. More importantly, the feeling of being one with the world just now was really something to look forward to.
King Ju Lu, Prince Han Jue, and Princess Qian You kept talking. Zhong Shan ate the food as if no one was around. He had just eaten dragon liver. This time, Zhong Shan picked up a piece of Phoenix Heart Silk.
The Phoenix Heart Silk was like a dragon liver. When it entered his mouth, it turned into a wonderful energy. It lingered in Zhong Shan's mouth for a while before flowing into his stomach.
Then, Zhong Shan felt his body turn into a fireball. In the blink of an eye, he was burned to ashes. Then, from the ashes, a spark erupted. The fire suddenly soared into the sky. In the blink of an eye, he was reborn in the sea of fire. Nirvana Rebirth.
Although it was just a feeling, after being 'reborn', it was as if his body was filled with vitality. A new feeling lingered in his heart.
Of course, it was just a feeling. However, this feeling made Zhong Shan think about it endlessly. Good stuff, really good stuff!
While Zhong Shan was tasting the dishes, the three leaders seemed to have finished their discussion.
"Princess Qian You, Prince Han Jue, a mysterious person gave me a treasure not long ago. This treasure has its own spirit, and I hope that it can find a wise master. However, I have never met a wise master in my Great Deer Manor, and I have always regretted it. Today, I hope that I can find the owner of this treasure during this banquet." King Ju Lu smiled.
"A rare treasure with a spirit? It chooses its own master? "Prince Hanjue slapped his fan against his palm and said in surprise.
As for Zhong Shan, he suddenly paused with a piece of Phoenix Heart Silk between his chopsticks. As expected, the meat of the show was about to begin. He turned his head slightly to look at Princess Qian You. Princess Qian You also looked at Zhong Shan at the same time. The two understood each other.
Zhong Shan continued eating the Phoenix Heart Silk. At the same time, he was looking forward to seeing how King Julu was going to sow discord between the two dynasties. How could they hide the root of the two dynasties? Rare treasure? The Great Havenlaw Dynasty did not lack rare treasures. What kind of rare treasure was King Julu's?
"I am looking forward to it." Princess Qian You was also looking forward to it, just like Prince Han Jue.
Zhong Shan looked at Prince Han Jue opposite him and sighed in his heart. This prince was not simple. He looked smart, but his words were completely 'led' by King Julu. However, he did not lose his sense of propriety and did not fall into a disadvantageous position. He looked bright on the surface, but in the eyes of those who were knowledgeable, he was rotten on the inside. Was it really as they saw? At least in Zhong Shan's heart, this Prince Han Jue was very powerful. At the very least, he was very experienced in diplomacy.
Clap! Clap! King Julu clapped his hands twice.
Four attendants slowly carried a large shelf over, followed by two attendants who carried a large scroll painting.
Placing the scroll on one side of the shelf, he slowly released the scroll and unfurled it.
Once the scroll was unrolled, a large amount of golden light shot out from within. Everyone's gaze was quickly attracted. The golden light flashed and then dimmed. The scene in the painting was revealed.
King Julu smiled. Prince Han Jue and Princess Qian You both looked at the painting.
Within the painting was a desert. There was a scorching sun in the sky, and below was a boundless desert. The painting was very exquisite, so exquisite that every grain of sand could be seen in detail.
Zhong Shan frowned. A strange feeling flashed through his eyes. It was as if this painting was a real world.
"This is the rare treasure?" Prince Han Jue narrowed his eyes at the painting.
"That's right. This is the rare treasure. Rare treasures can choose their owners. It depends on who can obtain its approval. "King Julu smiled.
"How?" Princess Qian You was slightly puzzled.
"Does this world in the painting look real?" King Julu suddenly asked.
"It does look real. Is this painting a world?" Prince Han Jue was shocked.
"I'm not sure. However, that person said that all the grains of sand in the painting are real. The key to opening the painting is to say the number of grains of sand. The number of grains of sand is the incantation to open the treasure," said King Julu.
"Oh?" Princess Qian You was startled.
"That person said that this painting took a hundred years to refine. On the first day, he put in a grain of sand. On the second day, he put in two grains of sand. On the third day, he put in three grains of sand. Each additional day, he put in an extra grain of sand. In total, it took thirty-six thousand five hundred and fifty days. "Although these grains of sand are arranged into a picture, they are all on a flat surface. You can see through them with just a glance. You can grasp them with just a sweep of your divine sense. However, it's not something you can calculate in two breaths' time. Princess Qian You, Prince Han Jue, how many grains of sand can you see through with a glance?"
"Then let's take a look." Princess Qian You nodded.
"The two of you are both extremely talented. Rumor is that Prince Han Jue has a photographic memory and is number one in the Great Light Imperial Dynasty. As for Princess Qian You's subordinate, Ah 'er, he also has a photographic memory. How about we have a competition to see who can count more accurately and faster," said King Julu.
"Alright," said Prince Han Jue confidently.
"Alright." Princess Qian You nodded.
"Ah 'er!" shouted Princess Qian You.
"Yes." Ah 'er immediately nodded. Then he looked at the picture scroll and began to quickly count.
Count? Zhong Shan's eyes widened. He used his divine sense to cover the picture scroll and eliminated them one by one. Quickly count? Yes, he could. But how long would it take him to do that?
Looking at the serious Prince Han Jue and Ah 'er, Zhong Shan's expression sank. He really did count? Even if he had the ability to use his divine sense, he couldn't squander it like this.
Zhong Shan looked at King Julu. King Julu smiled slightly, his eyes filled with confidence. It was as if he could use this picture to plant a seed of disaster for the two empires.
Zhong Shan's puzzled expression quickly landed in Princess Qian You's eyes.
"Mister, is there something wrong?" asked Princess Qian You in a soft voice.
Looking at Princess Qian You, Zhong Shan thought for a moment and took out a brush and paper. While everyone was focused on the picture of the desert, he began to write.
Then he handed what he wrote to Princess Qian You.
Princess Qian You was slightly puzzled. She looked at the paper Zhong Shan handed her. There were only nine words written on it.
Six six seven nine six nine five two five
Princess Qian You looked at the piece of paper that Zhong Shan handed to her in surprise. Zhong Shan put away the paper and brush and continued tasting the dragon liver and phoenix heart. He didn't say anything else.
Looking at Zhong Shan and the picture of the desert, Princess Qian You suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Her lips curled into a happy smile. At the same time, she looked at Zhong Shan with excitement. This time, Zhong Shan took the initiative.
"Your Highness, the number of grains of sand has been counted," said Prince Han Jue suddenly.
Hearing Prince Han Jue's words, the dragon liver in Zhong Shan's mouth almost fell out. He stared at Prince Han Jue with wide eyes.
Counted already? Didn't you calculate and count already? You finished counting? That was more than six hundred million grains. How long had it been?
Prince Han Jue looked at Ah 'er with a face full of confidence.
"The number on our side is also out." Princess Qian You smiled.
However, Ah 'er was still counting quickly. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead. It's out? I haven't finished counting yet.
Ah 'da tugged at Ah' er. Ah 'er looked at Princess Qian You with an ashamed expression.
"Oh? This king used nearly four hours to count back then. The two of you actually finished counting in less than half an incense stick's time? "King Ju Lu's face was full of disbelief.
"Won't we know once we try?" Prince Han Jue said confidently. At the same time, he looked at Princess Qian You in disbelief.
"Alright. Why don't Princess Qian You and Prince Han Jue write it down and see if it's the same?" King Ju Lu smiled. His eyes flashed with an indescribable feeling.
"I've already written it down. Prince Han Jue just needs to report the number. After comparing, we'll know if it's the same." Princess Qian You folded the paper Zhong Shan gave her and held it in her hand.
"Oh?" King Ju Lu looked at the paper between Princess Qian You's fingers in surprise. Then, he looked at Zhong Shan, who was focused on eating the dragon liver and phoenix heart. His eyes were filled with surprise. Although Zhong Shan's actions were hidden, many people still saw it.
"That's fine too. The number of grains of sand is 667,969,525," Prince Hanjue said confidently. After saying that, he looked at Princess Qian You's side provocatively.
Zhong Shan was still immersed in eating. Ah 'er was slightly ashamed. Ah' da, on the other hand, was full of confidence because he saw what Zhong Shan had written.
Princess Qian You held the paper in her hand. In front of so many experts, she couldn't change the number at the last minute. She opened it slightly.
Six six seven nine six nine five two five.
It was exactly the same. It was exactly the same number.
Seeing the number, Prince Han Jue frowned. He knew that the paper should have been in Princess Qian You's hands before he counted the number of grains of sand. In other words, Princess Qian You had counted the number of grains of sand earlier. How was that possible?
As for King Ju Lu, his pupils shrank as he looked at Zhong Shan in surprise.
"Who is this beside the princess? Was he the one who counted it? "King Ju Lu's smile was still there, but his eyes were unusually serious.
Zhong Shan finally stopped eating when his name was called. He put down his chopsticks and sat to the side, waiting for the princess to speak.
"Ah, King Ju Lu has good eyesight. Not bad, it was my Mister Zhong Shan who reminded me. Actually, King Ju Lu has already told us the number of grains of sand. There's no need to count anymore." Princess Qian You smiled. Clearly, when Zhong Shan handed over the paper, she already knew Zhong Shan's calculation.
