Li Qing looked at the map in his hand, and hesitated a little in his heart, this map was given to Li Qing by the old man named Yu in prison, he said that he left some things in Kunliang Mountain, and hoped that Li Qing would go and retrieve the things.

Kunliang Mountain, a big mountain outside the city of Daliang of Wei State, the mountain is high and the forest is dense, because there are often masters who live in seclusion, so it is also called the hidden mountain.

Li Qing was very interested in what the old man left behind, and after staying in Xianyang City for a long time, Li Qing was also very quiet and wanted to go out for a trip.

However, Li Qing, as the Shaofu Order of the Craftsman Division, is free on weekdays, but if he wants to go out of the city, he still needs to get permission from the above, and Li Qing's boss is the Great Order of the Craftsman Division, Zaoyang.

Zaoyang is an old man in his fifties who looks like a kind old man, but those who are familiar with Zaoyang know that this old man is not a good-natured master.

Zaoyang studied under the Luban lineage, and was awarded by Qin Shi Huang for improving the Qin crossbow, and was awarded the position of the Great Order.

It can be said that Zaoyang is definitely a good official who is dutiful, but Zaoyang's temper is often angry because the craftsman does not understand what he means, and he lashes out at the craftsman, so the craftsmen are afraid of him.

Since Li Qing took office, he has made great contributions because of his horse harness, and has been summoned by Qin Shi Huang twice, this honor, even Zaoyang has never obtained, so Zaoyang has always been jealous of Li Qing.

However, after all, Li Qing had just made great contributions and had a close relationship with the Montessori family, so although Zaoyang was jealous of Li Qing, he did not dare to blatantly trouble Li Qing, and the two were at peace for a while.

"My lord, Li Shaofu ordered me to see you."

A craftsman came to Zaoyang's side and said respectfully.

When Zaoyang heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, Li Qing rarely took the initiative to see Zaoyang, although the two were superiors and subordinates, Zaoyang did not arrange a real job for Li Qing, so Li Qing had actually been only in the name of Shaofu Ling, and had never really participated in the affairs of the craftsman's department.

Zaoyang touched his very supple beard, thought about it, and said to the little official, "Go and invite Li Qing in." ”

Li Qing stood at the door of the Great Craftsman Division, waiting for Zaoyang's summons, this time, Li Qing came to ask for leave.

After waiting for a while, the little official walked out and said to Li Qing with a smile: "Lord Li Shaofu Ling, please come with me." ”

Li Qing followed the little official all the way into the Dazao Division, and saw the Dazao Ling, Zaoyang, who was sitting on the felt.

Li Qing tidied up his clothes and saluted Zaoyang: "Li Qing has seen Lord Dazaoling. ”

Zaoyang looked at Li Qing, and after a while, he said, "Li Shaofu Ling, you came to see this official today, what is the matter?" ”

Zaoyang's tone was very flat, but Li Qing still heard a trace of inexplicable hostility from it, and couldn't help but be a little curious, Li Qing thought that there was no contradiction with Zaoyang, and he didn't know why Zaoyang was hostile to him.

Although he was curious, Li Qing was silent on the surface and said the purpose of his visit.

Zaoyang heard that Li Qing was here to ask for leave, and his face couldn't help showing a strange expression, the officials of Daqin were fake, which was very humane, but Daqin's management of craftsmen was very strict, and Daqin's craftsmen were theoretically not allowed to go home, or rather, their homes were in the Craftsman Division, because when they were conquered by the Great Qin, Daqin would bring their family members back to the Craftsman Division together to prevent any spies from obtaining the secrets of the Craftsman Division through the craftsmen's families.

Li Qing has no family members and has made great contributions, so he has always been relatively free, and he doesn't know that the craftsman department still has this kind of regulation, so he will think of coming to Zaoyang to take leave and go to Kunliang Mountain to hunt for treasure.

Zaoyang smiled and said, "Li Qing, you said you want to leave Xianyang?" ”

Li Qing nodded and said, "I want to go to Daliang to find an old friend." ”

Zaoyang's face turned cold, and he shouted loudly: "Bold Li Qing, as a craftsman and a young man, tried in vain to escape from Xianyang, are you guilty?" ”

Zaoyang's sudden change made Li Qing a little dazed, and at the same time as Zaoyang was drinking, more than a dozen small officials with sticks had rushed in from outside the door.

Zaoyang snorted coldly: "Take Li Qing down for me and wait for it to be released." ”

Li Qing didn't expect that he was just here to ask for a leave, but he would encounter this situation, seeing that those little officials were already walking towards him with sticks, Li Qing knew that he might have to experience another prison sentence.

Li Qing didn't think about resisting, with Li Qing's ability, there was not much problem in dealing with a few small officials, but once he started, it would be equivalent to rebellion, Li Qing didn't dare to bear this charge, so he could only honestly let those little officials push themselves to the ground.

Seeing that Li Qing did not resist, a trace of imperceptible disappointment flashed in Zaoyang's eyes.

Zaoyang looked at Li Qing, who was pressed to the ground, waved his hand at the little official, and ordered Li Qing to be imprisoned.

"Li Shaofu Order, you just stay inside first."

Li Qing was imprisoned in a room belonging to the craftsman's department, the room was very simple, but compared to being in prison, it was still much better, but this could not alleviate Li Qing's depression, Li Qing originally thought that he was just here to ask for a leave of absence, so he could leave Xianyang and go to Daliang, but he didn't expect that he would be locked up.

The group slowly advanced towards Xianyang City, the first person, with a handsome face, gorgeously dressed, and wearing a long sword decorated with jewels around his waist, this person was Meng Yi.

Looking at Xianyang City not far away, Meng Yi showed a smile on his face, since he was ordered to go to Mount Tai, Meng Yi had been away from Xianyang for several months.

"Brethren, we are almost home."

Meng Yi said loudly, as soon as the words fell, it immediately caused a burst of cheers, this trip to Mount Tai was not as easy as Meng Yi imagined, and there were only more than 80 of the more than 100 elites he brought, but he successfully brought back what Qin Shi Huang wanted, and it was a perfect completion of the task.

Looking back at the carriage behind him, a trace of hesitation flashed on Meng Yi's face, and on the carriage was the harvest of Meng Yi's trip, a meteorite.

It turned out that four months ago, the Taishan county guard came with the news, a meteorite fell from the sky, fell on Mount Tai, this kind of thing is not worth making a fuss about, but the meteorite is covered with words, and those words are also belonging to the Western Zhou Dynasty of the palace secret text, this time, Taishan county guard naturally did not dare to be careless, and quickly spread the news to Xianyang, Qin Shi Huang attached great importance to this matter, and sent Meng Yi to lead more than 100 elite warriors to retrieve the meteorite.

Seeing that Xianyang was about to arrive, Meng Yi's heart was inexplicably filled with a strong uneasiness, as if something bad was about to happen.
