Before going to the ancient world, Tang Shidao needed to be fully prepared. This was going to be a long and interesting trip. Whether the Great Zhou Dynasty was beautiful, whether there were outstanding people, and whether there were beautiful women, these were all things worth savoring. To some extent, this was a trip to cleanse one's soul.
The scarecrow had once told Tang Shidao that people from a single plane couldn't go back to the past!
Some spells seemed to have the effect of reversing the universe, but in fact, such a thing didn't exist! If a person went back to an ancient time similar to the time of their ancestors, they would definitely enter a similar plane world.
Suppose a certain time spell could let a person go back to the past.
Then, after casting the spell, you could go back to the past and meet another you.
Then, there would be two of you in this world.
If this theory was true, as long as a sorcerer kept casting this spell, he could create ten thousand or a hundred million copies of himself. In detail, as long as one went back to the past, there could be countless copies of himself.
In the world of the Sorcerer Web, there was only one sorcerer in a plane world!
There was no exception!
So, there couldn't be two sorcerers in a world, and it was even more impossible for two of you to appear at the same time.
The Sorcerer Web didn't have this kind of spell to go back to the past, nor did it have this kind of casting theory to recreate oneself. The scarecrow guaranteed with certainty that if a person encountered a similar situation, they would definitely enter a similar world. The Sorcerer Web once had a super awesome person who "shattered" and "reorganized" his own world, turning it back to the way it was hundreds of years ago.
But … this was just reorganizing, and it was just the change of a planet. It was impossible to turn the entire plane universe back to hundreds of years ago.
At that time.
After hearing this, Tang Shidao developed a strong interest in the ancient world. He couldn't go back to the past of Earth Emperor Planet, so he was especially interested in the ancient times of other worlds. He helped Prince Zhou because he was also a human, and also because he wanted to take a look around the ancient world.
Before setting off.
Tang Shidao started to spend again. "Give me a 'Summon Flying Prop' to derive the Red-Crowned Crane Carriage."
"Thank you for six points."
Summon Flying Prop was different from the Flight Spell. It was a spell to summon flying carriages, flying brooms, flying carpets, flying wooden birds, and other props. Derivation was an advancement and molding, which was to customize this kind of summoned object into the shape one liked. The scarecrow needed an extra point of magic power, and originally, it only needed five points to summon Flying Prop.
Tang Shidao did not mind being cheated.
This was because derivation could allow the summoning spell to 'advance', which meant that it would be slightly stronger.
It was a good spell.
For example, [Summon Raven]. If it spawned [Summon Raven], it could deal some fire damage, which was equivalent to a weak buff. The Fireball spell could also be evolved into a derivative spell like the Double Fireball spell. This would count as two spells, but the Fireball spell was the prerequisite for the Double Fireball spell.
Derivation could also be done by the Mage himself, but it would take a long time.
"Give me a copy of Summon the Mammoth." Tang Shidao made another purchase.
"Thank you for ten."
Summoned beasts that couldn't fly or dive wouldn't be too expensive no matter how big they were.
For example, summoning the Mountain Giant was only 20 points.
"Give me a Fixed Body Spell." Tang Shidao thought for a while and asked for a trick spell. The Fixed Body Spell was effective against weak individuals, but it was useless against strong individuals.
"Thank you for 1 point. You can create Group Immobilize yourself, or cast it a few more times. "
"Okay." Tang Shidao knew that this spell was just a toy. "Give me a copy of Resurrection of the Dead."
"Thank you for 10 points." The scarecrow took the money and said, "Let me remind you again, young man, Resurrection of the Dead is a time-limited resurrection of corpses. They can't move for a long time. Summon is different from Resurrection. Summoned creatures are molded from magic energy and have the possibility of permanent existence. Resurrected corpses only give them temporary magic power. Once the magic power is exhausted, it's over. "
"I know." Tang Shidao had already checked on Summon and Resurrection.
"What other spells do you want? I can see that you're planning to go all out. "The scarecrow rarely took the initiative to ask.
"You don't remember?" Tang Shidao was puzzled.
"Remember what?" The scarecrow was also puzzled.
Tang Shidao smiled and didn't say anything.
That's right, this guy must have forgotten that he was going to the Great Zhou when his memory was shattered. It didn't matter. Tang Shidao was too lazy to explain.
"Give me a copy of Make Water and a copy of Float."
"1 point of Make Water, 1 point of Float." The scarecrow didn't explain why Float was so cheap. It believed that Tang Shidao already knew. This kind of spell could only float cups and plates at its lightest. It couldn't even float a person. However, it was easy to double the power and use 2 points of magic power to float a person.
If it cost 10 points to cast, a small mountain could float.
Object Levitation was not based on weight.
It was for creatures, especially magical creatures with fighting power. 10 points of magic power might not be enough to float a struggling demon bull.
"Thank you, I'm done."
"Thank you for your patronage. Please come again next time." The scarecrow was really speechless to the customers. Look, how polite. Compared to its stinky face before that everyone owed it a million, its smile now was more sunny.
Heading to the Great Zhou.
Prince Zhou had already followed the plan. The first thing he did when he returned home was to run to his father's palace and cry. He desperately said that it was because of the ancestors that he didn't die. Not to mention anything else, he insisted on going to the Imperial Mausoleum to guard the tomb. Otherwise, he would kneel until he died.
The prince was pure filial.
Who dared to oppose?
Even if he wanted to kill his brother, he had to squeeze out a few tears to cooperate.
The emperor saw the child crying pitifully and guessed that his life wasn't easy. Since he intended to 'withdraw from the carnivorous circle', it was still possible for him to peacefully be a rich prince. With an imperial edict, Prince Zhou went to the ancestral tomb to guard it for three years. He couldn't return unless summoned by the emperor.
Prince Zhou's wish was fulfilled.
However, he didn't expect that … it was easy to share riches and honor, but difficult to share trials and tribulations.
"So, you only have a maid and an old eunuch willing to follow you? By the way, aren't you a prince? Why doesn't the princess consort care about you? "Tang Shidao turned into an owl and flew to the Imperial Mausoleum. He saw that only Prince Zhou appeared.
"My princess consort has a big family behind her, so … she has already remarried to a frontier general." Prince Zhou was very sad.
A beautiful princess consort and a beautiful concubine.
Loyal guards and obedient civil officials.
These … all flew away.
A prince guarding the tomb was no different from a beggar. The difference was that a beggar begged for money, while Prince Zhou begged for life.
"You don't blame me?"
"Why do you say that, Friend Tang?" Prince Zhou was puzzled.
"If I become an 'immortal' and arrive, you can be completely different. I can heal your injuries, support your powerful martial strength, and even induce your imperial father to make you the crown prince. I can easily do all these things. I'm just here to play. Don't you blame me? "Tang Shidao asked.
"Friend Tang, if you do this, I'll just be 'a fat mouse', right?"
"Yes."
"I don't want to become a fat mouse. Since fate has allowed me to enter the immortal world, I hope I can be of some use. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but you didn't let me call you Immortal Tang, and instead let me call you Friend Tang. At that moment, I felt that … I can still make a friend, a friend who won't lie to me. So, I hope I can be useful. "
"If you're willing to work hard, that's really good. The monk's body tempering technique is limitless. You can cultivate it until eternity. There's no end to its strengthening. "
"I will, Friend Tang." Prince Zhou said firmly.
"Then slowly train. By the way, you have to give me some money. Otherwise, I won't be able to have fun. "
"I've already prepared." Prince Zhou took out a package.
As a prince, he didn't lack money.
He gave it to Tang Shidao. Prince Zhou said seriously, "I can't give it to you, Friend Tang. Have fun and have fun. If you don't have enough money, come to me for more. I'll work hard and strive to become a wise ruler of the Great Zhou one day. "
Hearing this, Tang Shidao felt a little irritated.
He thought about it.
Then he asked, "Friend Zhou, do you know the difference between a wise ruler and an incapable ruler? I personally suggest that you take the path of an incapable ruler. "
Prince Zhou was puzzled.
All of his teachers taught him the same thing: a wise ruler, must be a wise ruler!
"As a friend, it's time to teach you the difference between a wise ruler and an incapable ruler." “
"Friend Tang, please speak."
"First of all, there are two benefits to being a wise ruler … You can be close to virtuous ministers and stay away from villains."
"An incapable ruler?" Prince Zhou's face was full of expectations.
That was what his teachers all said.
"If you're an incapable ruler, you can hold the greatest power, sleep with the most beautiful girls, eat the best food, drink the strongest wine, live in the most luxurious palace, wear the most expensive clothes, listen to the most moving songs, admire the most famous paintings, carry the sharpest sword, draw the strongest bow, ride the best horse, and enjoy the most beautiful scenery. In the palace, you can train the daughters of noble families. Outside the palace, you can tease the daughters of humble families. When you're happy, you can reward the people. When you're unhappy, you can send troops to terrorize the barbarians. You can do whatever you like. There's absolutely no one who dares to say no. "
"This … There's no harm in being a wise ruler, right?"
"There is. If you want to be a wise ruler, you have to sleep later than a dog, wake up earlier than a chicken, work more than a cow, and eat less than a cat. You have to work hard all your life, and you might die of exhaustion halfway. "
"This … an incapable ruler is worse, right?"
"No. An incapable ruler can sleep earlier than a pig, wake up later than a pig, eat more than a pig, and work less than a pig. "
"…"
Listening to these words, an incapable ruler seemed to be the only choice.
Even a fool wouldn't choose a wise ruler.
"Hold on. If I'm an incapable ruler, my country will soon be destroyed, right? "
"Congratulations, your intelligence has increased by 1 point. You're right. If you don't do anything and become an incapable ruler, your country will definitely be destroyed in two or three moves. Therefore, this involves the different choices of being an incapable ruler for a day, an incapable ruler for a year, and an incapable ruler for a lifetime. If you choose a day, it's simple. Just chop your father to death and sit on the throne for a day. "
"I choose a lifetime." Prince Zhou decisively chose the big one over the small one.
"Congratulations, your intelligence has increased by 1 point again. Although this is a very difficult decision, at least you've left the ranks of mentally retarded children. " Tang Shidao was satisfied. He had a sense of accomplishment that 'successfully led a wise ruler into the ranks of incapable rulers'. "If you want to be an incapable ruler, you have to be strong. Knowledge, money, troops, you have to have all of these, and you have to have a lot of them. "
"I …"
"It's impossible for you to have troops right now. First, get 'knowledge' and 'money' in your hands. Don't talk to me about competing with the people for benefits. Even if you don't compete, countless people will. If you really want to benefit the people, you have to at least have the ability to send money to them. Otherwise, it's useless no matter how kind your heart is. "
"Friend Tang, I, what can a person like me learn?"
"In addition to training, you also have to read books. If you don't know what you should do, it's okay. Look for all the incapable rulers in history. Whatever mistakes they made, you have to remember and always remind yourself not to make the same mistakes. "
"It's that simple?"
"For you, it's already not easy for you to do it." Tang Shidao was not afraid that Prince Zhou would go astray. Really, even if the entire Great Zhou Dynasty was turned upside down, Tang Shidao still had the ability to turn it around.
Before this.
Tang Shidao only wanted to know how much this silly child could improve.
"I'm leaving. I'll come again when I'm free."
