In the darkness, lines of glowing small characters appear in sequence along with the picture.
[You returned to anchor for one year. You were ecstatic and did some extraordinary actions. You were almost poured into the evil water that was asked by your aunt to exorcist the village witches]
[At half a year before the provincial examination, you studied hard at home day and night. Since you already know the test questions, you seem full of confidence. Although your aunt has complained about you on weekdays, she has always supported you in terms of studying]
[The village chief’s younger brother coveted the fertile fields of your family’s ancestors and secretly forced them. As a woman, my aunt was encouraged and resisted but she was unable to do so. You took a little trick and settled the matter. From then on, my aunt looked at you differently]
[Half a year later, you participated in the provincial examination. Although you only had the last score of more than 30, you finally succeeded in winning the Juren and glorifying your ancestors]
[Anchored for 2 years, you went to Xuanjing City to participate in the imperial examination. You are naturally high school who are prepared for the test questions. You performed well in the subsequent palace examinations, and are ranked among the second grade, and are awarded the title of Jinshi]
[You are in contact with Xuanjing City and finally got what you want and got the position of magistrate of Wen County, Jiangnan]
[Anchored for 3 years, you took over your aunt at home and took office in Wenxian County. You began to secretly cultivate your own confidant team. In the same year, you led your subordinates to find several minerals in the memories of your previous life in the deep mountains]
[Anchored for 4 years, you have successfully made a batch of explosives and combs. The musket team under your hands wiped out and incorporated a nearby bandit]
[After five years of anchorage, there was a severe drought in the south of the Yangtze River, and refugees were everywhere. Since you built water conservancy early and built water trucks to divert traffic, you were not greatly affected by the rule of Wen County. In the same year, a group of refugees gathered to rebel and attacked the Langya Palace. You led your troops to arrive in time and rescued the Langya King's family. The Langya King was very grateful to you]
[Anchored for 6 years, you were promoted to the prefect of Jianghuai Prefecture. In the same year, you married the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel as your wife.]
[After seven years of anchorage, a locust plague suddenly occurred in Jiangnan Road, and the food was not harvested. Only your rule was the least impact. In the same year, your wife gave birth to a son for you.]
【Anchored for 8 years, your subordinates successfully made a flintlock rifle】
[Anchored for 10 years, Princess Langya gave birth to a son. You come to the door to congratulate him and give him a carefully prepared gift]
[After 15 years of anchorage, the emperor suddenly suffered from a serious illness. Before his death, the King of Xuanlangya came to Beijing and was rumored to be located in him. The King of Langya succeeded to the throne and changed his lunar name to Xuanjing]
[In the 16th year of anchorage, Emperor Xuanjing summoned you to Beijing and promoted you to the Minister of War. In the same year, rebellions of all sizes occurred in various places at the same time. Emperor Xuanjing ordered you to lead troops to quell the rebellion.]
[After 18 years of anchorage, you traveled around and finally wiped out the rebels. After returning to Beijing, Emperor Xuanjing took back your military power and promoted you to the Minister of War and the Grand Tutor of the Crown Prince]
[After 20 years of anchorage, the queen suddenly fell into the witchcraft. Emperor Xuanjing was furious and drove him into the cold palace. The prince asked you for help in private, and you agreed decisively. After private visits and investigations, he found evidence of Concubine Xi's false accusation of the queen and returned the queen's innocence. Emperor Xuanjing's three tribes of Concubine Xi, but did not release the queen from the cold palace]
[After 21 years of anchorage, someone secretly sued you for rebellion and handed over the evidence that you had mined minerals privately and secretly obtained a batch of armed forces. You were extremely frightened and wrote a letter to apologize. Emperor Xuanjing removed your position as a minister, just asking you to teach the prince]
[After 23 years of anchorage, Emperor Xuanjing suddenly felt something and decided to go back to Langya Palace on Jiangnan Road to take a look.]
[Anchored for 24 years, Emperor Xuan Jing went to Jiangnan and ordered you to accompany you. While traveling to Jiangnan, he also visited several mines you had mined privately back then]
[Anchored for 25 years, Emperor Xuanjing went to Jiangnan twice. But this time, he did not bring you. Three months later, you secretly received news that someone had reported you to go to the cold palace to visit the queen.

[Anchored for 33 years, when you entered the court alone, you were surrounded by the trusted guards secretly trained by Emperor Corning. Fortunately, he was helped by a strange treasure and luckily saved his life. You were furious and wanted to kill the emperor and become independent.

【This simulation ends】
【You can select one of the following options to retain:
1. An item you hold in this simulation.
2. Your own level of practice in this simulation.
3. The simulated memory of a person who is closely related to himself in this simulation. This memory can be inherited by the person.
4. Give up the above choices and speed up the charging progress.]
Li Fan regained his consciousness and found that he had returned to his simple study room.
Looking around the strange and familiar scenery around, the past few decades of experience passed by Li Fan, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional: "Is it true that the truth turns into illusion, or is everything a simulation, just an illusion caused by being too real? Or, when it reaches a certain level, there will be no boundary between false and true."
However, Li Fan was not a pretentious person after all. Soon, he calmed down and focused on these four options.
There is nothing to say about the first and second items. If Li Fan embarked on the path of cultivation, these two items would definitely be of great help to him. Unfortunately, he was just a mortal in his previous life. He had no realm of cultivation at all.
As for the most valuable item you own, it is probably the imperial seal.
It is also useless and will only cause disasters.
As for the third item, let someone get the memory of this simulation too...
This made Li Fan's heart beat.
For a moment, several figures flashed through Li Fan's mind.
But in the end, he shook his head.
After all, human hearts are the most difficult to predict. No one knows what a person will become after decades of memory.
Now that [really] has not been charged yet, I am still a weak scholar with no power and no capital to start over.
Therefore, everything should be stable.
Then there is only the fourth option left.
Speed up the charging progress.
[Real] The transformation of reality into virtual requires energy recharge.
According to Li Fan's experience in his previous life, the charging progress can only naturally increase with the passage of time. It will take about twenty years to fill it up.
The charging progress will no longer increase after reaching 200%.
At the same time, when Li Fan was hit by a fatal blow, [really] would consume the charging progress to automatically protect the body. This is also the reason why Li Fan was able to die several times in his previous life.
Therefore, the fourth item is the safest choice.
After taking the time to pay attention, Li Fan stopped hesitating and silently recited in his heart.
Then, lines of luminous small characters suddenly scattered into light spots and quickly arranged into several new lines of characters.
Name: Li Fan
Realm: mortal
Physiological age: 20/86
Psychological age: 166/1056↑
Vision charging progress: 30%
"Three lives are human, one hundred and sixty-six years. It turns out that I have lived for so long. However, the upper limit of my heart is the last one. I remember that the previous life was only 900 years, but now it has increased to more than a thousand years. It seems that this will increase with my experience. It has reduced some of the anxiety in my heart."
Just as the lifespan of the body has a limit, there is also a certain threshold for the psychological endurance.
When carrying too many memories, a spiritual burden will be formed. Once the burden is too heavy, it will completely crush a person's soul.
This is what is called "the wear and tear of time".
However, the upper limit of psychological age will increase with the increase in psychological recognition ability.
At present, Li Fan doesn’t have to worry about it.
"As long as you embark on the road of cultivation, everything is not a problem. Now you start over, and you will be glorious and wealthy, and beautiful women in the car are not my pursuit."
"I just want to live forever!" The pain of the passing of loved ones and friends around me in my previous life, the weakness and fear brought about by my growing aging body, made Li Fan's mind more determined at this moment.
"The goal of this life is to learn the secret of cultivating immortals from the two cultivators. Fifty years later, they will descend to Xuanjing City. With the intention of making a fool of themselves, even if they are the so-called strong people in the foundation-building stage, I may not have no chance of winning."
"Maybe what I can rely on is in addition to guns, gunpowder, and the immortal miasma they talk about..."
"In addition, I can't wait for fifty years. They came from the Eastern Ruins Abyss. Maybe I can send people deep into the bottom of the Ruins Abyss to find out."
...
What I fear most in life is that I have no goals. In my previous life, many times when Li Fan woke up from the empress dowager's bed in the middle of the night, he felt extremely empty and confused.
In this life, he has stood at the top of ordinary people.
He is the emperor's army and holds the troops of the world. Eighty-tenth of the ministers in the court are his confidants.
He was able to abolish the emperor, and even the empress dowager allowed him to ask for it.
It can no longer be higher.
Even if you come again, it will be the same.
Is this going to happen in the next simulation?
In this way, what is the meaning of reincarnation for a lifetime?
To be continued...
