A female novel about traveling through a book? Learn about the power of the overlord at the beginnin

The King of Qi was indeed a rich man. After hearing what Chu Heng said, he waved his hand and gave each guard three months' salary as a reward.

As soon as the news reached the army, the guards were all overjoyed.

After all, getting three months' salary for free is not a small amount of money.

For a time, the guards' recognition of the new commander was directly raised a lot.

However, one of these guards was depressed.

This person was Zhang Wen.

Zhang Wen thought that his hard work these days could win the favor of the new commander.

But what he didn't expect was that he didn't have a share in the selection of model soldiers.

So, when other guards were drinking to celebrate, he was drinking to relieve his sorrow. As he drank, he couldn't help but recall his mediocre life.

Zhang Wen was not a child of aristocratic family. He was just a farmer born in a poor family.

At the beginning, Zhang Wen's family was a well-off family with several acres of good land. With the support of his parents, he was even able to go to a private school when he was a child and learn to read and write.

But that day, a local wealthy family took a fancy to his family's fertile land, and used very despicable means to seize Zhang Wen's fertile land.

So far, a relatively happy family has been shattered.

Zhang Wen's father went to the rich family to argue, but was severely injured and finally died of depression.

His mother was also too sad and died soon after.

For a time, Zhang Wen had no relatives in this world.

Although his father told him not to seek revenge on the rich family before his death.

But how could Zhang Wen forget such a deep hatred.

Of course, his father's previous experience made Zhang Wen realize that blindly seeking revenge would be useless.

So, Zhang Wen at that time decided in his heart that he wanted to stand out.

Only by controlling power can he truly avenge his parents.

So, after weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Wen buried his hatred in his heart and resolutely chose to join the army.

Of course, Zhang Wen also thought about taking the imperial examination route.

But soon, he gave up.

In fact, the price of studying is too high.

Although the imperial examination is a road to success, it is not something that poor people can walk on.

Only by joining the army and risking your life on the battlefield can you make a name for yourself.

I don’t know whether Zhang Wen is lucky or unlucky. In order to get the favor of his superiors, he has always performed well in the army.

As a result, when the King of Qi came to select his personal guards, his superiors directly reported his name.

So Zhang Wen became a member of the personal guard.

Zhang Wen originally thought that becoming a member of the King of Qi’s personal guard was also a very good way out.

But what he didn’t expect was that most of the King of Qi’s personal guards were people who were just sitting there doing nothing, and the King of Qi himself didn’t care about the personal guard camp at all.

Zhang Wen felt that staying in it was like entering a cage that he couldn’t get out of.

This made Zhang Wen very distressed and even a little desperate.

But suddenly one day, a new commander came.

At first, Zhang Wen didn’t really care about the new commander’s coming.

The personal guards were so lax that Zhang Wen didn’t think that changing a commander would change everything.

Zhang Wen even thought that the new commander was just someone who came to gild himself.

But he didn't expect that the performance of the new commander after his arrival was far beyond Zhang Wen's expectations.

On the first day of his arrival, he defeated the original commander and drove away the deputy commander. He even directly dismissed all the people with titles in the army.

When the other party said"the capable ones are promoted and the mediocre ones are demoted", Zhang Wen's silent heart began to beat wildly.

He knew that his chance had come.

Zhang Wen did not hide his determination to get promoted.

In order to get the favor of the new commander, he even showed himself in a way that was almost self-mutilation during military training.

Zhang Wen took a sip of wine, and a self-deprecating arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Oh, what's the use of trying to show it, the physical talent is here.

Even if his feet are bloody, he can't keep up with those who are physically strong.

Not to mention the new commander who is as powerful as a ghost, even the original commander Song, the current deputy commander, his strength is not what he can achieve in his lifetime.

Zhang Wen even gave up on himself.

He knew that his physique was not strong, and even in the army, he was very mediocre.

At this time, Zhang Wen just wanted to drink and get drunk.

So, Zhang Wen got drunk.

In a daze, he seemed to feel that his body was moving.

It was as if someone was moving his body.

It was unknown how long it took for Zhang Wen to wake up from his drunken state. But when he regained consciousness, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Something was wrong, where was this?!

Zhang Wen found that he had been in a secret room without knowing when.

And here, there was nothing except a bed.

Zhang Wen suddenly got up from the bed and couldn't help looking around.

Feeling that he was not hurt, Zhang Wen was slightly relieved.

Who on earth could bring him here from the barracks without anyone noticing?!

Moreover, Zhang Wen believed that he had never offended such a big man.

As for the rich man.

It's not that Zhang Wen looked down on the other party, but the fact is that the other party simply could not have such ability.

Zhang Wen was puzzled.

But soon, Zhang Wen knew the answer.

Because soon after he woke up, a person he was very familiar with appeared in front of him.

"Commander. Why is it you?"

The one who brought Zhang Wen to the secret room was naturally Chu Heng.

Chu Heng looked at the other party's surprised expression and asked instead of answering:"After drinking so much, do you feel that your efforts have not been rewarded accordingly and feel desperate?"

""Uh"

Zhang Wen scratched his head awkwardly.

If he said no, he would definitely be lying.

Zhang Wen didn't know what to say for a moment.

"This world is inherently unfair, just like the princes and nobles, who have everything that common people dream of when they are born."

Chu Heng's voice began to become low:"So, do you also feel that sometimes, God is so unfair?"

Zhang Wen listened and was silent for a while, and then he laughed at himself:"A commander like you should be at the top of this world, how can a humble person like me be compared to you?"

""But, but, I still can't accept it," Zhang Wen said, clenching his fists,"Why can those people who are just sitting there doing nothing enjoy all that?""

"Moreover, not only that, they are so openly depriving others of everything!"

Thinking of his parents' tragic death, a surge of anger grew in Zhang Wen's heart.

It seemed that the effect of the alcohol had not yet dissipated. Even when facing the awe-inspiring commander, Zhang Wen could not hide the anger in his heart.

He suddenly covered his head with his hands and gripped his hair tightly:"I obviously tried so hard, why, why is it like this, this world is so unfair!"

"No, you are wrong. This world is actually fair.

Zhang Wen heard this and raised his head, looking at Chu Heng in confusion.

"It’s just that this so-called fairness is not what you understand." Chu Heng’s voice seemed to have some kind of magic that penetrated Zhang Wen’s heart."The general’s son will live better than the farmer’s son, but have you ever thought that the general’s father, or his grandfather, will definitely live better than the farmer’s father, or the previous generation?"

"The so-called fairness is not limited to one generation, which is undoubtedly very one-sided."

"People only see the glorious side of the nobles, so some envy them and some are jealous of them."

"But have they ever thought about the price that the ancestors of those noble children paid for the prosperity of their descendants?"

"Perhaps he was just a small soldier, who experienced countless life and death experiences on the battlefield, step by step, and finally became a general by chance. However, he died in the battle, and his son worked harder and more desperately than him. With the help of his father's resources as a general, he gambled everything and finally completed the leap of identity. He became a general!"

"But the cruel reality is that such things are rare. The truth is that under the piles of bones, there are already countless people buried who once tried their best for future generations."

"Some of these people may succeed, but more will fail."

"What the world sees are only those few who succeeded from generation to generation and finally enjoyed the aftereffects."

"Now, Zhang Wen, it's your turn. The opportunity is in front of you. You have to choose between being a tiny body among the piles of bones or being a pioneer on the road to success."

Chu Heng's voice completely exposed the throbbing hidden deep in Zhang Wen's heart.

Zhang Wen is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very smart.

He has already heard something.

In other words, when he woke up in this secret room and saw Chu Heng, he had already realized in his heart that an opportunity for him had come!

"Commander, what do I need from you?"

Although it was a question, Zhang Wen's tone was full of unprecedented determination.

"Very good, you are a smart person, it is worth it that I have been paying attention to you until now." Chu Heng said with appreciation,"Now, I will turn you into a ghost."

"Yes, this is your code name."

"Before you complete your mission, you will lose your name and everything you once were."

"You will hide in the darkest place, in the endless darkness, peeking at the prey that belongs to you"

"And between you and him, there will only be one left in the end!"
