Shaolin***

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, in order to ensure the safety of her legitimate son, the queen swapped the infant prince with a Shaolin orphan. The prince, who was given the Buddhist name Xuchen, grew up in Shaolin. A fire in the Sutra Pavilion revealed a dragon birthmark on his chest, and the abbot was secretly shocked. At the age of eighteen, Xu Chen went down the mountain to fight against the Qing Dynasty and save the people. He met five heroes including the rebel marshal Mu Linxue and the undercover Jin Yiwei Yun Jinghong. During the bloody battle in Kaifeng, Xu Chen wiped out the Qing army with his diamond stick. When the emperor came to rescue him, Emperor Chongzhen was shocked to see the familiar dragon-shaped mark - Xu Chen, who learned of his life experience, refused to take the throne until Mu Lingxue died in order to protect the refugees. Holding her blood-stained jade pendant in his hand, Xu Chen finally understood: In this troubled world where mountains and rivers are broken, only the dragon spring can be used to stabilize the world. He led his army in the Northern Expedition, fought a decisive battle outside Shanhaiguan, and finally entered the Forbidden City surrounded by hundreds of officials. On the eve of his ascension to the throne, he knelt alone in the ruins of Shaolin, facing the half-destroyed Buddha statue and whispered: "Master, is this what you call 'empty is color'..." The novel combines a thick and realistic historical background with fierce and real martial arts fighting, and incorporates moderate oriental fantasy elements. The emotional description strives to be sincere and profound, highlighting the choices, sacrifices, friendship and human struggle in troubled times. The war scenes are grand and cruel. The novel's battles between rivers and lakes are strange and dangerous. The novel is freshly released, and all book lovers are welcome to read and appreciate it.
