Chapter 2 Reduced to a man's husband
Li Qing didn't expect that the people above would bury him alive, so he could only shout for help in a hurry.
"Stop."
Seeing that Li Qing was about to be buried alive, a group of knights suddenly came in the distance, a total of ten people, all wearing black leather armor, hanging long swords from their waists, and carrying curved bows, which was the standard configuration of the Qin army.
When the knight at the head saw that a group of people wanted to bury a naked man alive, he couldn't help but shout.
When Li Lao and other villagers saw the knight, they hurriedly threw down the stick in their hands and fell to their knees.
Li Qing saw that the people above stopped to cover the soil, wiped the dust on his face, and his face showed a look of collapse.
"What's going on? God, I can't be abducted to some primitive tribe, right? ”
What the people above were talking about, although Li Qing didn't understand it very well, he could faintly feel that the other party should be an accent from Henan.
A bearded man wearing a leather pocket showed his head and looked at Li Qing with a strange smile in his eyes.
Li Qing was shocked, hurriedly covered his body, and looked at the bearded lewd man with a frightened expression.
Wang Xin, the Qin army was built, this time to Yingchuan, because the first emperor ordered the people to be recruited to build a gallop road, since Qin ruled the world, the Great Wall was built, and the imperial mausoleum has been conscripted too many people to serve in the army, resulting in many complaints from the people everywhere, so Wang Xin will personally lead the elite soldiers under his command to gather the people in various places, with the Qin army, the people everywhere naturally dare not say much.
Wang Xin pointed at Li Qing and asked, "Who are you?" Why here? ”
Li Qing saw that the bearded lewd man pointed at him, and yelled at himself, and was a little scared, but compared to the one who was almost buried alive just now, although this beard was ugly and his tone was not good, but after all, he could be regarded as saving his life, Li Qing felt that he should please this bearded man, maybe he was counting on this beard to save his life.
Li Qing tried his best to say in a humble tone: "Ahem, this big brother, can you save me?" By the way, can you understand Mandarin? ”
Wang Xin had a strange expression on his face, Wang Xin couldn't fully understand the words of the man under the pit, but he still understood what the other party meant, and the other party was asking for help.
Wang Xin touched the beard on his chin, thought about it, waved his hand to let Li Lao step forward, and then asked, "Who is he?" Why did you bury him? ”
Li Lao looked at Wang Xin with a fierce look on his face, his legs were weak in fright, and he hurriedly said, "Master Jun, what ...... The man fell from the sky, a demon, and that's why we buried him. ”
When Wang Xin heard this, his eyes widened, and he shouted: "Be bold and dare to coax me, if this person falls from the sky, won't he become a pulp?" It must have been you who plotted other people's property and murdered for money, so you deliberately lied and deceived me, yes or no? ”
When Li Lao was yelled at, he felt that his mind was blank, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, but he only looked at Wang Xin in a daze.
"Poof"
A rope was thrown down, Li Qing's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly reached out to grab the rope, and the Qin soldiers on the pit saw that Li Qing was holding the rope, so they pulled hard and pulled Li Qing up the dirt pit.
Looking at the people around him who were dressed and hairstyles were very weird, Li Qing subconsciously squatted down.
Wang Xin frowned, and gestured to a Qin soldier beside him, who took a piece of ragged linen from his horse and threw it to Li Qing.
Li Qing took the sackcloth and hurriedly wrapped himself in the sackcloth, having something to cover his body, Li Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Qing became a member of the conscription and was responsible for the construction of the gallop road from Yingchuan to Xianyang.
"Smack"
Li Qing never thought that he actually came to the Qin Dynasty, although Li Qing was not unacceptable to cross, but as soon as he crossed, he was almost buried alive, Li Qing felt that there should be few traversers who were so unlucky, and what was even more unfortunate was that he finally escaped the doom of being buried alive, but he was arrested to build a gallop road.
In the past, when I saw the story about the Qin Dynasty's galloping road in books, Li Qing only felt that Qin Shi Huang was very great, and he was able to build the first official road in ancient times, which was worthy of being an emperor through the ages, but now, Li Qing just wanted to say, pit father.
Building roads and bridges is by no means a simple matter, especially in ancient times when there were no large equipment, everything relied on manpower, every day, there were many people who were tired to death, and the people who were tired to death were all buried by digging a pit casually, and Li Qing was afraid to see it.
"It's time to eat."
Li Qing put down the shovel in his hand, looking at his hands full of blood bubbles, Li Qing wanted to cry without tears, now Li Qing, extremely nostalgic for the soft sofa at home, fragrant coffee, and even the once extremely annoying Erha of the old Wang's family next door, all made Li Qing feel very missed.
A piece of black and unknown dumplings with a rancid taste, and a bowl of clear soup mixed with grass blades, are the food of the conscripts, for this kind of food, Li Qing refused at first, but after a few hungry meals, this disgusting food, Li Qing has been able to accept it calmly.
"Goo-dong"
The two of them stuffed the dumplings in their hands into their mouths, and then poured a few mouthfuls of clear soup, Li Qing took advantage of this rare opportunity to lie on the ground, breathing heavily, looking at the blue sky, Li Qing felt that all this was so ridiculous in front of him.
"The other traversers are all princes and generals, why is it my turn that I can only be a coolie here? Or the unpaid kind? ”
"Okay, let's get started, don't be lazy."
Seeing that everyone had finished eating and drinking, Qin Jun began to shout, waving the long whip in his hand, and the people who moved a little slower were inevitably whipped.
Li Qing was in a daze when he was seen by a Qin soldier, who sneered and waved his whip at Li Qing.
"Smack"
The severe pain woke up Li Qing, Li Qing stood up with grinned teeth, reached out to get the shovel at work, and as soon as his hand touched the shovel, he was whipped again.
"Phew, don't want to be lazy in front of the military master, work for me quickly."
The soldiers of the Qin army scolded and pointed at Li Qing and said, Li Qing's hand holding the shovel tightened, but when he thought that there were at least dozens of Qin soldiers around him looking at this, Li Qing could only sigh and do his work honestly.
On Li Qing's back, two whip marks slowly disappeared, all of this looked so magical, but unfortunately no one saw it, including Li Qing himself, and he didn't think about it, why there were no scars on his body.
"Hey"
"Hah"
The people were in full swing, and the patrolling Qin soldiers looked at the slowly forming avenue, and their faces showed happy looks, as long as this gallop road was successfully built, these Qin soldiers would not have to suffer in this barren mountain and wilderness all the time.
Li Qing waved the shovel in his hand and picked up some gravel, because he usually loves sports, Li Qing found that his daily work was actually not very tired, what really made Li Qing feel tired was the depression in his heart, and the people who fell to the ground and died from time to time at that time.
