There are three counties in the south of Hengshan country, Guilin County, Xiang County, and Nanhai County.

There is a county lieutenant named Ren Huan, who is seriously ill in the middle of Qin. His lieutenant general, Nanhai Longchuan ordered Zhao Tuo to temporarily act as the county lieutenant.

Beside the campfire, a handsome man in his thirties, whose battle robes were stained with blood, poured green wine and stared at the dancing flames.

The Yue people who sat cross-legged with tattooed faces smiled on their faces, raising wild beasts to burn meat and bite, which was incompatible with men.

Everyone noticed the strangeness of the man, and they just regarded it as murderous and didn't care.

Even if he is Zhao Tuo.

"Why is the county lieutenant unhappy in the southwest for a big victory?" The soldier beside Zhao Tuo asked.

"How long has the county lieutenant been here?" Zhao Tuo suddenly asked rhetorically.

The soldier thought slightly, "More than eight years." ”

"Wrong!" Zhao Tuo poured a sip of wine, his eyes red. "It's eleven years."

The soldiers reacted, and what Zhao Tuo said was the beginning of the first southern attack with the national captain Tu Sui. Although Tu Sui was a great victory, he killed on a large scale, and when he crossed the Xijiang River, he brought snake venom arrows to the locals to shoot. Only then was Ren Huan's turn to be the main general, and Zhao Tuo was the deputy general to attack again.

"The county lieutenant is afraid..."The soldiers looked around at the people of Baiyue and lowered their voices, "This group of Yue people is revenge?" ”

"Revenge?" Zhao Tuo smiled disdainfully, "Ren Huan or the seventy-two sages of Confucius are not even, and this order is already extremely benevolent and righteous to this group of Yue people, how can we talk about revenge?" ”

"It's disgust!" Seeing that the soldiers were puzzled, Zhao Tuo took advantage of the wine and said bluntly, "Baiyue people can fight against the Qin State for the sake of the king, but now this order leads his people to attack the same species, but everyone is not ashamed, but they congratulate it, which is extremely ridiculous." In the past, the princes of the world hated Rong Hu and raised troops to attack him, but for hundreds of years, it was this group of non-Rong and non-Hu people who fought deeply. Everyone is like this, they are tired of being in company. ”

The soldier seemed to understand or not, and nodded in agreement.

"The lieutenant wants to..."

"This decree wants to establish a nation, to cut it off from the nations, to ignore strife, and to send people to educate it." Zhao Tuo clenched his fists.

"Founding a country?!"

Even if the soldiers had already guessed, they couldn't help but stare in surprise before they realized the intention of fighting for Guilin County.

"Lieutenant Ren... How could the lieutenant of the county promise it?! Zhao Junwei can't mess around! The soldier said urgently.

"This order is known." Zhao Tuo smacked the residue in the wine.

Ren Huan is not suitable for this place, he has been seriously ill for a long time, and he knows that the Qin State almost died for the rebels to attack Xianyang, and now he heard that the child is still alive, so he actually hangs his last breath.

"This order is decided!" Zhao Tuo said coldly, "This order is for the Zhao people, who did not take advantage of the chaos in the world to attack Qin and fight back against the invading Mei Kai, which has been regarded as a courtesy." If Ren Huan still doesn't know the general trend and only knows foolishness, he can only be seriously ill and die. ”

"The lieutenant must not... The lieutenant was drunk. The soldier's tone was flustered, "Retire below..."

The soldier got up and went east, went straight to Panyu City, and before he could lead the horse, he was surrounded by Baiyue people.

The laughter of everyone had turned into murderous, and the flat-stemmed copper sword in his hand came straight to the soldier.

"Looks like they're more reliable." Zhao Tuo didn't turn around, "Die!" Staying here is also an eyesore! ”

Baiyue people received the order, and stabbed straight with swords in both hands.

"Zhao Tuo! ... Stop it! ”

The sound of horses' hooves and intermittent calls came from the east, Zhao Tuo heard the sound of Ren Huan, raised his hand slightly, and the Baiyue soldiers quickly stopped their hands.

Zhao Tuo slowly turned his head and smiled bitterly, "Although the land of Baiyue is warm, Ren County Lieutenant can't come out without his coat, right?" Where is Daqin's face? ”

"Ahem, cough, cough..."

Ren Huan is only in his forties, his face is as old as an ancient age, and a few coughs almost make people think that they will cough up their lungs.

"The Lieutenant of Ben... When I heard that Longchuan ordered to lead troops to the west, I knew... Long Chuanling no longer wanted to kill the lieutenant of this county. Ren Huan's face was sallow, and he lay on the horse's back and gasped, "Good means... If it weren't for the Longchuan Order to send someone to reveal it in Panyu City, the county lieutenant would not know at this moment..."

"Smart, the soldiers you bring may still have the heart to serve as the county lieutenant, but the Baiyue people are hearted to this order." Zhao Tuo smiled faintly, "Now that you know this, why don't you run away quickly?" This order doesn't want to send someone to kill you yet. ”

Seeing this, the soldier took the opportunity to ride his horse to break through and fled to Ren Huan's side.

"Forget it, even let him go today, Beiheng Mountain, Dongyu Clan, pick a place to escape." Zhao Tuo waved his hand.

"Run? ... If he had fled, the lieutenant would have fled many years ago. At... When you were seriously ill, you had a temporary lieutenant in your hands, and 500,000 soldiers and horses in your hands... When Qin is not saved. Ren Huan gasped, sweat dripping down.

Zhao Tuo raised his eyebrows lightly, slightly teasing, "Oh? But why? In order to prosecute this order, or... In order to be physically safe and regain power? ”

"Maybe it's the former," Ren Huan sighed weakly.

Not only Ren Huan himself, but Tu Sui also felt unwell after going south, so he would kill on a large scale, in case the locals would not take the opportunity to resist. However, Zhao Ren and Zhao Tuo went to the south without hindrance, and his complexion gradually improved. At that time, Ren Huan faintly felt in his heart that some major events in his day - Zhao Tuo finally took control of Nanhai County.

"Lieutenant Ren is too careful, and this order will not change his mind. The Chu people Zhuang Qiao can still establish the Dian country, and this order can also establish the Yue country. It can be counted as... The state of Zhao stretched. Zhao Tuo smiled, and the word "Zhao" was particularly clear.

"Zhao is also Qin... Qin is also Zhao. Ren Huan smiled bitterly, "Although Longchuan Ling controls the five mountains, chokes the three rivers, and absolutes the four roads... Know what is going on in the north, right? The newly established Chen Yu's Zhao had a close relationship with Daqin. Zhang Er also made friends with Great Qin before his death, and Qin Zhao's enmity was not as deep as it was back then... Longchuan must have selfish intentions in it, right? ”

The soldiers beside Ren Huan nodded again and again.

"Humph! How is there that? Zhao Tuo made no secret of it, "The Yue Kingdom is decided, if others can take Kyushu, this order may be friendly with it." If Ziying wins Kyushu again, Hugh blames this order for the sword and soldiers! ”

"Not afraid of Wu Rui? Wu Ruiruo for the Great Qin... Mei Kai will also follow. Longchuan's plan was ruined. Ren Huan frowned and asked.

"There are 500,000 troops in this order, why be afraid of Wu Rui?!" Zhao Tuo's face was fierce, "Wu Rui is safe, if you have the heart to attack, wait for this order to defeat Guilin and Xiangjun." Wu Rui is the enemy of the first attack! ”

Ren is arrogant and unable to speak. When there was only Xianyang left in the Qin State, when he was heavily armed, Zhao Tuo couldn't help it. Unexpectedly, the fighter turned sharply, and it dragged on to this moment, and Zhao Tuo was completely impatient.

"Lieutenant Ren, don't say much!" The soldier patted Ren Huan on the back and frowned, "I can't convince him at this moment." ”

Ren Huan nodded helplessly.

"Lieutenant Ren leaves Nanhai County quickly, otherwise... Death today! Zhao Tuo shouted, "It's best to go to Hengshan Kingdom to inform Wu Rui, don't let him act rashly, this order doesn't want to have any more disputes." ”

Before Ren Huan came here, he had already guessed that the situation would not be easier, and he was also prepared, and it was necessary to inform Ziying of the changes here, and insisted on dying again.

"The lieutenant of this county will look at Panyu City again tonight, and he will go north to return to Qin tomorrow." Ren sighed.

"Go ahead."

Zhao Tuo waved his hand lightly, turned his head and continued to watch the fire. After nearly a decade of isolation, these small demands are not a problem.

"County Lieutenant! Let the hustle and bustle go away, I am afraid it will not be conducive to Baiyue. "The Yue people who gathered in a circle rushed to the road.

"Let him go!"

Zhao Tuo did not change his mind, closed his eyes and listened to the sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

"After the disciples of Confucius, they are really pedantic!"

......

Qidi, Linzi City.

In the simple wooden house, Lingyan, dressed in black, was reading the Mo family classics alone. Cai Wei has been taken care of by the Mo Chu faction, and has been happy and idle for many years.

But last time, I left Cai Wei alone in Qin, and I didn't feel uneasy in my heart, but this time I always felt a little indescribable.

The sense of unease is particularly strong today.

"Heh... Xu is deceived and is too cautious. The spirit burned to himself and smiled bitterly in an attempt to dispel this heart.

After a while, the feeling of uneasiness spread inexplicably throughout the body, and the spirit burned no longer on the bamboo slips.

"Xu is in trouble?!"

Lingyan put down the bamboo slip and was about to go out with his sword. Walked to the door, thought for a moment, put the sword back in the room, and walked out empty-handed.

The long battle has passed, but in the cold winter, there are few pedestrians on the road. The spirit burned and walked in the direction of the palace.

Whew-

A cold cold blew through the north, and Ling Yan couldn't help but shiver on his face.

When I turned around, on the originally unmanned northern road, a middle-aged strong man with two swords appeared out of thin air, although his body was strong, he could feel the flexibility of his body through clothes.

The sword is the favorite of the Qi people, and there is a story of the Taigong looking for the sword about 800 years ago. The person who practices the sword will inevitably have a sword wound, and the person in front of him seems to be fine, and his plain and indifferent face is telling Ling Yan that he is a master of sword use.

Even if that person tried his best to suppress it, the long-standing spirit burner could still detect the slightest murderous aura.

"Who is Your Excellency, and what are you doing here?" Lingyan asked vigilantly.

"The giant wants to hear the truth... Or is it a lie? The man said lightly, his tone was vigorous and powerful, and then there was more than enough to breathe, endlessly.

"Truth." The spirit burned back.

"The truth is that someone sent someone to kill the giant man, disguised as a swordsmanship when he killed him by mistake." The man looked directly at Lingyan, and the momentum in his eyes tried to suppress the other party, "The identity of the lower will also be rumored to be a sword-learning boy, in order to ruin the reputation of the giant." ”

"It should be true, but the contemptible want to know who sent it." Lingyan asked, narrowing his eyes.

"Heh... Does this kind of thing need to be broken at the next point? The man smiled, "The previous time, the giant's ability seems to have regressed a lot. ”

"It's really Mochu." Ling Yan smiled bitterly, "The contemptible guessed that it was him, but they didn't expect him to really make a move." That's it... What is your last name? ”

"Qi people... Zhang Zhong. The man spoke up, as if these words were a sharp sword.

Ling Yan opened his eyes slightly, and then regained his calm expression.

"In today's world, among the few who are famous for their swords, only Zhang Zhong, a Qi person, is recognized by the world as an insect in Qindi. Mo Chu has worked hard. Ling Yan sighed with a smile.

"I hope the giant is not strange." Zhang Zhong arched his hand.

"Don't worry, today's contemptible people are bound to fight against Your Excellency." Ling Yan smiled, "Contemptible but I don't know anything, I hope Your Excellency will say it." ”

"What?"

"Worm Da is good at swords, and returns to Liu Bang for utilitarian gain, attacking the world. If you do not choose the lord in three years, you should not like fame and fortune, and you will be careful about the way of the sword. Why did you go out of the mountain this time? Lingyan asked.

"The reason for this... Same as the worm. However, the people who are asking for it are not among the princes of Qin. This time it was not only for Mo Chu, but also for that person. Zhang Zhong replied seriously.

Ling Yan guessed who he was talking about, and smiled appreciatively, "Don't forget the old things, you should be a hero." ”

"Thank you, giant." Zhang Zhong reached into his arms, took out the silk cloth that had been prepared and threw it to Lingyan, "This battle, life and death do not matter. ”

"Very good." Ling Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, and the feeling of uneasiness came to an end, knowing that it was his danger today, but secretly rejoicing.

Holding a dark object, the Spirit Slid over the silk cloth, revealing two black scratches. Hold the silk cloth with strange things, and put it aside.

"It's worthy of a giant, I've never seen this thing before." Zhang Zhong praised, inserting the double swords on the ground, "The two swords are the same, and I ask the giant to choose them." ”

Ling Yan looked at it for a moment, and pointed to the long sword on Zhang Zhong's right hand, "I'll choose it today." ”

"Good!"

Zhang Zhong nodded and threw the sword to Lingyan.

In the cold wind, the two confronted each other for a moment. As if he had a heart, he drew his sword and rushed towards the other party at the same time.

Zhang Zhong is good at sword moves, and he has evolved his moves to the extreme, and after the dull moves, the sword blade has changed many times and is not easy, forcing Ling Yan to retreat.

"Giant! You've let you down! Zhang Zhong's eyes were blazing, staring at the changes in the two swords, and he said angrily

"Don't be in a hurry, wait for the contemptible to respond."

Lingyan was engrossed in his attention, holding his sword and slashing from top to bottom, in order to block Zhang Zhong's sweeping sword.

"How can you stop it?!"

The sword in Zhang Zhong's hand suddenly twisted in a strange arc and slashed towards the other ankle.

The spirit burned a sword and slashed into the air, Zhang Zhongli was very fast, and this blow was probably unavoidable.

In an instant, Lingyan sword rose into the air for the staff, and then drew the sword and retreated, slashing the back of Zhang Zhong's head with a backhand.

Bell –

Zhang Zhong expected that this would be the case, and when he swung his sword to block it, several killing moves appeared between the two of them again, and they calmed down, and then the other party struck with the next blow.

Two identical swords collided in the wind, and sparks erupted.

On the east side of the two, Mo Chu and the Zhu family hid behind the tethered horse stake, watching the life-and-death struggle intently.

"Zhang Zhong studied swordsmanship wholeheartedly on weekdays, and thought that the spirit burning was invincible. Unexpectedly, the frequent battles in the old days of the Spirit Burning were enough to respond to the battle. ”

The Zhu family sighed, and was even more horrified in their hearts, if it weren't for Mo Chu's determination to support him, either of these two might prevent him from becoming the head of the knights.

Mo Chu's heart was itching, he reached out and touched his sword, eager to rush forward and compete with either of the two.

"Who does Childe think can win?" The Zhu family asked.

"I can't see it, all have shortcomings." Mo Chu's tone towards the Zhu family was not condescending for the first time, "Although Ling Yan is clearly defeated and retreated, and is forced to be involved in Zhang Zhong's moves, there is always a follow-up to greet him. Furthermore... Ling's sword moves are strange, and it seems that there are always killing moves that have not been made. ”

"It shouldn't be..."The Zhu family couldn't figure it out, "Could it be that the spirit burns and can't bear to kill the famous people of Qidi?" At the moment of life and death, do you still have such a heart? ”

The Zhu family was afraid that Mo Chu's short-term kindness towards him would disappear, so they no longer opened their mouths to quietly watch the two who were fighting.

The twin swords are carrying sparks and have collided hundreds of times.

Swinging the sword again, the two swords were suddenly firmly entangled, and they couldn't get out.

The two of them looked at each other, and both swords were cut out of the gaps, and the gaps on both sides were coincidentally inset.

"Heh... If the contemptible knew that there was such a battle, he should have refined a few handfuls a few days ago. Lingyan laughed.

"Don't worry, I've already brought a few handfuls below."

The two of them let go of their hands together, the two swords fell to the ground, Zhang Zhong turned to the side and took out the second sword, and threw one to the spirit burner.

"Come again!"

When the opponent meets the good talent, the two draw their swords and fight again, the murderous spirit just now has turned into a smile, and the four eyes are full of desire, eager for the other party to play another blow that they think will kill.

The more the Zhu family looked at it, the more frightened they became, and they thought that if they were in a battle, they would have died dozens of rounds ago. Secretly glad that he didn't challenge Lingyan in person in order to please Mo Chu at that time.

Mo Chu kept his eyes on it, fighting with two fingers as a sword, imitating the moves of the two back and forth.

"Wonderful, wonderful!" Mo Chu couldn't help but admire.

The Zhu family couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "Dare to ask, if the prince is fighting, but one of them is the enemy?" ”

"Either or no."

Without waiting for the Zhu family to ask again, Mo Chu explained, "I am separated from each other, and I can't fight in person, so I don't know what the next move is." But if you have a move in your heart, you can change on the spot, which is not a difficult thing. The sword move in this son's mind should be above the spirit burning, and below Zhang Zhong. The war should be under the spirit burning, above Zhang Zhong. I don't know if I can win. ”

"What Childe said is very true." The Zhu family smiled complimentarily, but he knew that Mo Chu had challenged Lingyan many times, and he had no memory of victory, so Mo Chu was looking for himself to go down the stairs.

The two of them hid in their figures, still and still, and were blown a little cold.

"That's not right!!"

Suddenly, the Mo Chu and Zhu families spoke in unison, their eyes widening.

Before the sword change, Ling Yan was on a par with Zhang Zhong, but after the sword change, Ling Yan's movements slowed down with the naked eye, and he was almost killed by Zhang Zhong with a sword repeatedly.

In front of Lingyan's chest, his arms have been marked with blood.

"Zhang Zhong is playing tricks on the sword!" Mo Chu clenched his fists and scolded, subconsciously wanting to draw his sword to obstruct it, but he knew that if Zhang Zhong was invincible, there would be no one in Qi Di who could kill the spirit.

"Despicable! Remembering that he is also a man of the sword, I can't wait to abandon the sword and use something else! The Zhu family scolded, as if he had forgotten that he had used shell grinding powder to sweep the child's eyes.

The fighting continues, but the winner is decided.

The spirit burned his face with tiredness and shortness of breath.

"Mr. Zhang Zhong lives up to his name... Admire under it! Lingyan smiled ugly.

"Giant! What are you hiding?! Zhang Zhong said angrily, and the sword of killing was withdrawn several times, only to have more wounds on Lingyan's body, in order to humiliate him and force the other party to fight hard.

Not far from the north, Cai Wei covered her abdomen with her hands and came at a gallop.

Pregnant, Cai Wei often took a nap during the day, and suddenly dreamed that Lingyan was killing from outside the house where the fire was spreading, and after killing several Korean assassins, he reached out to her as he did back then.

Cai Wei stretched out her little hand, and Ling Yan didn't wait to hold it, but smiled slightly, and then turned into the distance. The blazing fire suddenly turned into ice and snow, and the spirit burned away without a trace.

Cai Wei felt bad, and regardless of the obstruction of her subordinates, she rushed to the Spirit Burning Abode alone to find out, and she was relieved.

The figures of Ling Yan and Zhang Zhong were close in front of her, and Cai Wei smiled subconsciously, but after seeing the situation clearly, her face was like frost.

"Master! Be careful! Cai Wei yelled urgently.

Zhang Zhong frowned, knowing that it was not appropriate to stay for a long time, so he used his strength to open the Spirit Burning Sword and stab it directly in the chest.

Blood splattered, and the spirit burned on its back to the sky, falling heavily to the ground.

Zhang Zhong ignored the crying behind him and fled south quickly. It wasn't until half an hour later, exhausted, that he could not stop.

"Finally... Shake it off. ”

Zhang Zhong suddenly felt a chill in his chest, only to realize that a blood stain appeared on his chest that did not hurt his clothes.
