Chapter 1: Heaven is jealous of talents
It is the sixth day of the first lunar month in the thirteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.
The execution ground in Nanjing, Taiping Embankment, was full of prisoners kneeling at this time.
Pieces of death cards soared into the sky, and as far as the eye could see, they were as densely packed as a jungle of swords and halberds.
The executioner is already in place, holding a ghost-headed sword in his arms, standing behind the prisoners one by one.
Hundreds of prisoners either cried loudly or complained about injustice. The various voices were intertwined and extremely miserable.
In the sky jail not far away, the screams of prisoners being tortured could also be heard. A dark wind blew on the embankment, and the atmosphere was depressing and terrifying.
"I'm going to take my life..."
Zhao Wumian was wearing an iron-gray flying fish suit and standing under the beheading platform with a knife, his face sullen and expressionless, but in his heart I have been panicking for a long time, and my legs and stomach are cramping.
He never expected that after just playing a game, he would be able to enter the game world with a character template, become an indigenous NPC, and be given such a difficult task as "Supervise Killing" from the very beginning.
When he thought that at 3:00 noon, more than 300 people would die before his eyes, his heart was in turmoil.
These are real people!
You still have to watch it here!
You can’t hide even if you want to!
His current identity is Jin Yiwei, a personal soldier of the emperor. Every move he makes is reported to Zhu Yuanzhang. If he makes any inappropriate move, he himself will have to kneel down on the stage.
That's Lao Zhu.
O Zhu who kills without blinking an eye!
It’s Lao Zhu who practices the “Emperor’s Shocking Technique” in the game “Mythical Ming Dynasty”!
Zhao Wumian clearly remembers the description of this skill in the game: cut down rivers with one palm, and divide the world with two fists!
Let me go!
If he got hit by this, his little life would be lost immediately.
But even if he could bear not to hide, he was about to die...
Zhao Wumian sighed softly, looking straight ahead, a translucent panel appeared on his retina.

Zhao Wumian looked at the fate "Heaven's Jealous of Talents" and the conspicuous "2" in the life span column, and felt that life was gloomy.
The so-called destiny is a character template randomly selected by the player at the beginning of the game.
Different fortunes will have different attributes and trigger different game content.
For example, [Innate Divine Power], when the initial physical strength is full, like Xiang Yu and Li Yuanba, they hate the sky and the earth without a ring; for example, [Innate Dao Body], when the initial spiritual roots are full, various Yin and Yang techniques can be used The trick is there to capture; another example is [The Falling Country and the City], the initial charm is full, both men and women have charming physiques, and everyone loves them.
The [Heavenly Envy Yingcai] that Zhao Wumian drew is very powerful, with physical strength, spirituality, bones, agility, charm, and understanding all maxed out.
It means innate divine power, innate Taoist body, innate horizontal training, innate magical behavior, innate enlightenment, unparalleled enlightenment, overwhelming the country...
It is simply a monster in human form.
But there are gains and losses.
The price of being a numerical supermodel was that his lifespan was shortened by thirty years!
The problem is that the lifespan in the game only affects the game time and does not delay resurrection. Although it is easy to achieve the ending of "dying young" if thirty years are cut off at once, you can find a way to extend your lifespan. Lift the material and ground treasure upward;
Health only affects the physical condition. -30 means a congenital deficiency and the inability to fight for a long time. The fighting time will be 30% shorter than that of a normal person. But with such incredible attributes, is there still a need to "fight for a long time"?
Isn’t the same realm sweeping away a large area?
The internal beta has just ended. When Zhao Wumian drew this fate last night when he built a new account, he had this thought and was extremely happy.
But after all this became reality, the polarity suddenly reversed.
Thirty years!
Life span is determined by heaven.
The NPC he wore was just a minor character in the Zhenfu Department. He was originally weak and sick and could only live to be fifty years old. He has lived for eighteen years. He passed in by himself and merged with [Tian Envy Yingcai]. Subtract another thirty years, and there are only two years left...
Two years...
Can two years allow him to find the treasure of heaven and earth to extend his life?
The game has just been launched, and he has only participated in the internal beta of version 1.0, so he doesn’t know much about it. But in this kind of high-martial world, who of the previous emperors in the past dynasties has not had unparalleled martial arts skills? Who doesn’t want to live forever?
But what's the result?
It’s all gone.
Not to mention a little guy like him. The only thing he can do now is to do his best and obey fate.
Fortunately, my current identity can be used.
The game background of "Mythical Ming Dynasty" 1.0 is selected from the Hongwu period. After Zhu Yuanzhang founded the country, there were Prime Minister Hu Weiyong who abused power and bent the law and formed cliques for personal gain. Unruly warriors are everywhere, and the remaining forces that fought for hegemony in the early years are also dormant in the dark...
In this environment, relying on the Ming Dynasty, the most powerful country, became the strongest official force in the Ming Dynasty to suppress Si Jinyiwei. .
It is a blessing in misfortune.
Relying on Ming's huge news network, there may be a glimmer of hope...
It stands to reason that the game "Mythical Ming" combines many familiar legends and stories and adds many classics The martial arts scenes are embellished with mountains and seas and strange beasts, so there should be ways to extend life.
[Heavenly Jealousy of Talents] As a god-level destiny, it shouldn't be a dead end.
In "Wind and Cloud" there is Emperor Shakti who lived for thousands of years, and there should be one in "The Myth of Ming Dynasty" as well.
It just might be difficult.
Originally, he was prepared to face the difficulties, run his errands well, practice hard, stand out, get promoted and get a raise, and collect information...
But he died before he left the army, cruel. The reality gave him another blow.
It’s up to you whether you can survive today or not.
Because the person being executed today has a great background.
So big that just before yesterday, he was the second-in-command of the entire Ming Empire, one person below others and above ten thousand people!
He is the current prime minister, Hu Weiyong!
Hu Weiyong has been alone for several years. He planted cliques all over the court and spared no effort to attack dissidents, which made the Huaixi clique's power continue to expand. Relying on the emperor's favor, he deceived his superiors and bullied his subordinates, formed cliques for personal gain, and did whatever he wanted. Finally, Lao Zhu was angered, and after being reported by the court officials, he was executed for treason, and the three clans were executed!
The prisoners kneeling on the execution ground are Hu Weiyong and his relatives.
With a high martial arts background and such power, it is obvious to what extent Hu Weiyong’s strength and influence will be terrifying.
Although he was arrested, he still maintained a guard called "Yipitang" under his command, all of whom were dead soldiers.
Over the years, I have been responsible for protecting his safety, eradicating dissidents, and finding treasures.
There are countless masters in it.
Lao Zhu made such a big noise to kill him because he was sure that these dead men would come to rob the execution ground, and he wanted to use Hu Weiyong as bait to catch all the martial arts forces and martial arts masters he had secretly cultivated!
Now the sky net has been set up.
Jiang Huan, the envoy of Zhenfusi and Zhenfu in the fourth realm of martial arts, presided over the execution. Mao Xiang, the commander at the pinnacle of the fourth realm, led a large number of Jinyi guards to ambush all around. As long as they dared to show up, they would be dead.
But with so many desperadoes taking action together, Jin Yiwei like Zhao Wumian, who is on the front line, is in danger. If he is not careful, he will become cannon fodder.
To act recklessly is to die, and to be timid is also death.
It's so difficult...
As soon as Zhao Wumian walked in, he showed off this "good thing" and almost fainted from exhaustion.
Last night I scolded Lao Zhu and the others so much that they had to come over and stand guard the next day.
"The beginning of hell..."
Zhao Wumian looked at the prisoners on the stage and was beyond hope.
"Sir, the time is coming."
A voice came from behind, it was the Jin Yiwei who was reminding the supervisor Jiang Huan.
As his voice fell.
The atmosphere in the entire execution ground suddenly stagnated, and the overt and covert murderous intent was like a mountain, weighing on everyone's hearts!
Zhao Wumian trembled when he heard this and looked at the sundial placed under the sycamore tree.
The sun shines on the pointer, and the shadow falls on the stone plate engraved with the hour. It is almost three quarters past noon.
He clenched the embroidered spring knife in his hand.
The matter has come to this, there is no other way, the most important thing right now is to survive!
The cold wind howled, raising dust.
Among the criminals, Hu Weiyong raised his head.
Even if he became a prisoner, even if his power was blocked, the Ming Prime Minister's magnanimity was still there. He looked around coldly, showing a sneer.
The execution platform.
Jiang Huan, wearing a gorgeous white cloud-patterned flying fish suit, reached out to the lottery tube, threw out the beheading token, and said in a cold voice:
"The time has come, execution!"
The words fell.
A sudden change occurred.
