Suddenly, tense rugged hands grab him and drag him away.These hand weren’t human, so what
were they? To Xiao’s astonishment, they were hands manufactured out of clay! He trashed and squawked
like a bird, trying to get out of their iron grip.Then he felt a sicking dull thud on the back of his head, his
mouth tasted like blood, then he blacked out.
Nudged awake, Xiao is presented with his head bowed in front of Qin Shi Huang Di. Blood
drained out of Xiao’s face, wasn’t the first emperor dead already? He died a month ago! The emperor
addressed him, but the flabbergasted Xiao was only thinking about how in the world was the Qin
emperor alive, but dread saved him. If the Qin Shi Huang Di didn’t want him to know how to become
immortal by drinking mercury, he would have to kill him.With that horrifying thought, he listened to the
emperor.
“You’ll be killed alongside your brother……”, these were the only words Xiao caught in the speech
that would determine his life and death. Xiao was overjoyed, he grovelled and thanked the emperor, this
was his only wish that he would die the same day and time as his brother did. Nobody in the court
seemed astounded, it seemed like this was the daily business that goes on everyday in a place filled with
half-dead zombies.
Xiao’s brother Han Xin knew better, they could live and serve someone another day, it wasn’t the
right time to die as one. Seeing the determination in his bother’s eye, Xiao addressed the emperor.
Waves of shock was sent through every rank and file of the Ghost Army. Officials fainted, soldiers
dropped their bronze polished weapons. Xiao had broken the law and order of the Qin Dynasty, he
addressed the emperor as a commoner.These key words changed the course of history, Xiao had stole the
Qin title and crowned himself the jade emperor of all China.
In conclusion what do you think about this thrilling story? As a reader, I’ll let you think about that.
