The position of county lieutenant was directly appointed by Qin Shi Huang, in other words, Han Hao's decision to promote was made by Qin Shi Huang, in this case, Han Hao must go to the palace again to thank him, and by the way, some officials who have to visit will stay in Xianyang for some more time, so he asked Ye Shikai and Shangguan Jian to lead the 5,000 troops to go to Heyang County, Ye Shikai directly took over the position of commander of the garrison, and Shangguan Jian was his deputy general.

"Pack up the army, and we'll set out tomorrow. "Ye Shikai surpassed Shangguan Jian in the title of military merit, and he surpassed it later, fortunately, Shangguan Jian is not the kind of person who is cautious, besides, he also knows Ye Shikai's ability, not only has strategy and courage, but also has luck, and has been appreciated by Meng Tian, and it is only a matter of time before he rises to prominence in the future.

"Xue San, are you well-informed on the rivers and lakes? ”

"My lord, aren't you knowingly asking, who am I, Xue San, in these northern counties, my name is well-known in the rivers and lakes, and any hero will give me a face. Xue San patted his chest and said.

"Okay, you can help me inquire where Hua Liandie is, by the way, it's the woman who chatted with me in the teahouse yesterday. Ye Shikai said lightly.

"Well, my subordinates understand that although this woman is very mysterious, it is not a problem to travel with so many people and want to find out where she is. Xue San nodded and replied, "It won't take a day or two, there should be news." ”

"By the way, my lord, don't you want to see that woman, why are you still investigating her location now? Xue San was just about to leave, when he suddenly turned around and asked.

"I had a pact with her that I had something to give her. Ye Shikai didn't say anything, Xue San naturally didn't ask his superiors, bowed slightly, and left the barracks.

At night, Ye Shikai finally had time to meditate and think, unconsciously, he had traveled from modern times to the Qin Dynasty for more than four months, and he had been in the frontier for more than two months, for a twenty-five-year-old young man, four months was nothing, but for Ye Shikai, these four months were not an exaggeration to say that he had completely changed him, but these subtle changes may not even be noticed by himself......

Following.

Three months ago, Han Hao took five thousand soldiers from Heyang County to Jixian County, and three months later, only half of the original five thousand people remained, in the eyes of outsiders, several battles in Shifeng Fortress can be called a complete victory, but even so, why are there so many brothers who can't come back, and they will be successful, but Ye Shikai is not happy about his military achievements.

"Old Ye, you seem to be very unhappy, is something going on? "When the army passed through a river, Shangguan Jian ordered the whole army to stop and rest to replenish the water source.

"Shangguan, there are so many brothers who have not returned with us, how should I answer if the elders of Heyang County ask? Ye Shikai smiled bitterly.

"Lao Ye, you don't need to blame yourself too much, you command very well, otherwise it will be a meritorious service, we even have the danger of annihilation several times, on the battlefield, death is inevitable, and the hometown fathers will not blame you. Shangguan Jian said with relief.

"I hope so. ”

The army marched towards Heyang County, and it took only seven days to cover half the distance.

.....................................................................

Modern, Ji home.

"After Chen Yuxin came back from Jiangnan, she has been staying at home and has never gone out, then again, why do you pay so much attention to her, sister. Ji Yu said lazily, these days, Ji Qian has been paying attention to the movements of the Chen family, which makes her a little nervous.

"Are you really sure. Ji Qian frowned and asked rhetorically.

Of course, she doesn't know what's wrong, her husband is missing, and she is so calm. Ji Yu snorted coldly.

"Xiao Yu. Ji Qian stretched out her hand and flicked her head, causing Ji Yu to gasp in pain.

"By the way, I still don't have any news with the surname Ye here, sister, maybe...... He's really dead on the Holy Mountain, are you really sure he's alive? Ji Yu didn't want Ji Qian to be worried about a man who was very likely to be dead, and even didn't think about it for dinner, but he couldn't stimulate her, so in private, Ji Yu still used his ability to collect news.

"Then let's change the subject, sister, do you know a big thing. Seeing that the atmosphere was cold, Ji Yu hurriedly changed the topic.

"What's the matter, you say. ”

"The new ruins are about to be opened, and the major families are ready to move, and my father has been actively preparing recently, integrating the various elders, you ...... Don't you know. Ji Yu said excitedly.

Ruins, ruins, ruins, when Ji Qian heard this, it was as if the resentment in her heart had been ignited all of a sudden, the ruins seemed to everyone like a "cornucopia", but only those who understood knew that the ruins brought people curiosity were only lost.

If he hadn't gone to the ruins, Ye Shikai would not have disappeared, thinking of this, Ji Qian was full of resistance to the so-called "ruins that are about to be opened".

"I'm not going. Ji Qian directly refused.

"Sister, the ruins this time are not ordinary, the location of the ruins is in Kunlun Mountain, that place, you should know. Ji Yu continued.

"The ruins of Kunlun Mountain, that is the largest ruins in China, it is rumored that among the ruins there, there are many strange creatures, dangerous and abnormal, I don't know how many cultivators have died here, my father still insists on going. Ji Qian said coldly, the ruins of Kunlun Mountain are the "holy mountain" of Huaxia for cultivators, and every time the ruins are opened, it is enough to shock the various families in Huaxia.

"Sister, you are also clear about this, if you can get treasures from the ruins, the loss of personnel is not worth mentioning at all. Ji Yu waved his hand, taking the several major families in Yanjing as an example, they were not short of people at all, what they lacked was a real cultivation master, and from the ruins, if they could obtain the treasures that improved their cultivation, their importance was even more important than that of the ten elders.

"That's right. Ji Qian knows the minds of these families too well, including Ji Tao, going to Kunlun Mountain, either forced by the situation, or the desire of the people's hearts is difficult to fill.

"Besides, even if our Ji family doesn't go, the other big families will only be even happier, we don't go, and some people go. ”

In the final analysis, it is all human greed that is at work, the four major families of Yanjing are just the situation, not the result, which family does not want to dominate Yanjing, or even become the strongest in China, the opening of the ruins of Kunlun Mountain is an opportunity, and no family will give up this opportunity.
