Shen Mu died twice.
The first time, he was tricked into a Khitan ambush and the entire army was wiped out.
The second time, the city was destroyed and people were killed, with arrows piercing their throats.
He didn't know until he died - the defeat was never accidental, it was the ghost in the Central Plains who betrayed the defense plan.
Once he was reborn and returned to the age of seventeen, he no longer strived for fame, no longer wanted to be an emperor, and no longer practiced being invincible.
He only does one thing: use autopsy, investigation, and logical deduction to find out the evil hands in the dark.
Others rely on military power to strive for hegemony, but he relies on corpses to speak for himself;
Others relied on power to gain power, but he relied on evidence to break the situation.
From a county official to a lonely city guard, from The Bourne Supremacy to a chess game in troubled times.
He could not stop the bloody storm of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, but he still wanted to defend a city, protect a group of people, and expose a conspiracy that subverted the world.
"Is Taiping created by piles of corpses? Then I will be the one who counts the corpses."
