The sun set in the west, under the cover of the mountains and forests, the camp soon dimmed, a group of Fangshi and Miao Wu working in several stilted buildings came out one after another to leave the camp to go to the nearby Miao village to eat and rest, some guards also handed over the escort task, and soon the whole camp was quiet, only a few guards with bows and crossbows and long swords patrolled near the camp in twos and threes.

There is a cave behind the camp, the gate made of rough wood is closed tightly, the side is a cliff more than ten zhang high, there is a stream below, only an artificially dug path leads to the stone cave crookedly, there are boulders and trees and thorns on both sides of the path, it is very hidden, and you can't see it at all if you don't pay attention to it on weekdays.

A young man with a long bow and a quiver walked in front, followed by a guard with a bow and a crossbow on his back, and the two of them followed the narrow stone path to the entrance of the cave, and changed to two guards guarding the entrance of the cave to eat.

"Steward Li, it's been almost two years since we came here, when will we be able to return to Xianyang?" The guard with a bow and crossbow sat in front of the cave and looked at the rolling mountains around him, and said a little depressed.

"It should be soon, I heard that a few old immortals said that they will leave in the near future, but at that time, some people will still be left here to take care of it, otherwise I am afraid that the potion will be stolen by these Miao Man!" The young man thought for a moment and said.

As soon as the guard heard this, he became interested, and hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Steward Li, this time you let me go back with me, I am very worried about my father and mother......

"Haha, I'm afraid you're not thinking about your father, but about your delicate lady, right?" The young man laughed, and then said while sorting out the quiver, "This time I have indeed been away from home for too long, I also returned to Xianyang halfway, but you have suffered more, the place where Miao Man lives is humid and hot, it is too uncomfortable, it is not as dry and refreshing as Xianyang, and your lady is estimated to be anxious and waiting at home, maybe she will find a good person to secretly live happily, and you will already be a father when you go back......."

"Don't make fun of the steward, my lady wouldn't do such a depraved thing......" Although the guard said toughly, his face was also a little worried, and he could see that he was faintly worried.

"Hehe, if you don't say it, don't say it, so let's do it, this time I will arrange for you to escort the old fairy back to Xianyang, so as not to worry you." The young man patted the guard on the shoulder and said.

"Thank you, thank you Steward Li!" The guard thanked him excitedly, then looked back at the closed wooden door of the cave and said with some regret, "It would be nice if a few old immortals could also reward me with some immortal potions, so that I will definitely be satisfied with my mother-in-law!" ”

"Hey, I can't see that you also have something unspeakable!" The youth quipped.

The guard instantly blushed and shook his head: "Steward Li said nonsense, a certain is young and strong, but no one on the bed thinks that he is powerful enough, and for more than a year, I have heard a group of women who are by those experimenters and barbarians in Miao Village calling every day, and a certain person is naturally itching in his heart, could it be that Steward Li is not moved?" ”

"Heartbeat is naturally heartbeat, but unfortunately this potion is too precious, every bottle has a record, and I can't help you if I want to, but when I return to Xianyang and see Qinghehou say a few good words in person, maybe Qinghehou will promise to reward us with some ......"

"Steward Li is highly valued by the Hou Ye, and when the time comes, I will trouble Steward Li to wait for me to say a few more good words in front of the Hou Ye!"

"Don't worry, I will naturally say that even if you have to sell some, you can make a fortune!"

"Yes, yes, when the time comes, I will go back to Xianyang and ask Steward Li to go to the night street to those little ladies of the Six Kingdoms Quyuan, I heard that the little ladies of Chuyuan are the best at serving men, those little hands and small mouths...... Hiss~~"

"I heard that the little lady in Yue Yuan is the best, and she is light and easy to push down......"

In anticipation, the two of them sat on the stone steps and began to drool.

"Goo~Goo~"

Just when the two were discussing which little lady in the garden of the night street was the most ecstatic, suddenly there were several cries of homing night birds in the bamboo forest not far away.

The young man's face moved slightly, and he listened to it again and said, "We have to stay here for two hours, the time is difficult, you go to my room and fetch the clay pot on the corner of the couch, there are some fried lotus rice in it, you can pass the time!" ”

"Steward Li waits for a while, and so-and-so will go!" The guard got up, kicked along the stone path, and turned to leave.

After the guards were out of sight, the young man also put his hand to his mouth and made a few cooing bird calls, and quickly lit a pine torch inserted in the entrance of the cave with flint, and after a while, he saw Zhao Gao, who was carrying a cloth package and a hat, limping down the stone path timidly and cautiously.

"So cowardly, hurry!" The young man held the torch and whispered, then took out a bunch of keys from his waist and walked to the door of the cave and opened the brass lock on the wooden door.

"Squeak~"

As the wooden door opened, a cold wind blew in his face, and the young man couldn't help but shiver slightly.

Zhao Gao also rushed to the entrance of the cave in three steps and two steps, and looked into the cave, where the black rumbling was almost invisible.

"Don't rub it off, go in and get it and leave quickly, there are several potions in it, the best one is placed on the bottom of the wooden cabinet on the left, and it is held with a black gourd, remember, you can only take one, I will find a way to put a fake one in it, I am afraid that if I take too much, I am afraid that it will expose my horse's feet, and when the time comes, it will be ruined by my uncle's big thing if it is discovered by Qinghe Hou!"

The young man shoved the torch into Zhao Gao's hand and pushed him into the cave, then nervously turned his head to look at the stone path leading to the camp.

After walking into the cave, Zhao Gao didn't dare to hesitate, opened a wooden cabinet very open, took out two gourds from it and put them in the package, thought for a while and opened the wooden cabinet next to him and took out two gourds......

"Have you got it, hurry up!" Youth urging.

"Got it!" Zhao Gao agreed hoarsely, hurriedly closed the cabinet door and returned to the entrance of the cave, looking at the young man who was still standing with his back to the cave, gritted his teeth and suddenly his cuffs shook, and a black shadow fell directly on the young man's neck.

"What's that?" The young man only felt a cold and then a pain in his neck, and exclaimed in a low voice and couldn't help but touch it with his hand, and when he saw a colorful little snake in his hand, he couldn't help but change his face greatly, "Ringed red snake~"

Just when the young man was frightened and exclaimed, the little snake in his hand twisted his body and clicked and bit on the young man's hand again, the young man's hand shook and let go, and the little snake's body writhed and pounced on the young man's face and took another bite.

"Zhao Gao save me!" The young man covered his face with a low wail and rolled to the ground, rolled down the steps, and rolled on the ground for more than a long time.

Zhao Gao rushed out of the cave without stopping, staring at the young man rolling on the ground.

"Zhao Gao, save ...... Help me......"

The young man covered his throat and opened his mouth wide and whispered for help, but as the toxin entered the bloodstream, his face soon became puffy and purple, and his voice became smaller and smaller, and he could only make a ho sound in less than half a minute, and his cheeks were twisted to reveal an extremely painful expression under the reflection of the firelight.

"The old man's current life experience is only known to you and Li Si, Li Si originally had a discord with me, he wanted to deal with Chen Xu but wanted me to be a pawn, only if you and Li Si are dead, the old man can take revenge with peace of mind!"

Zhao Gao's terrifying face showed an extremely hideous expression, and he roared in a low voice.

"You...... You...... Ho Ho ...... "The young man finally understood at this time, and reached out several times to draw the sword at his waist, but he did not succeed, and finally his body spasmed violently and twisted a few times, and then his head tilted and there was no movement.

Zhao Gao dragged the young man to the edge of the cliff next to the cave and kicked him down, then looked back at the cave, threw the torch in his hand into the cave, and quickly fled down the mountain along the stone path.

Soon a puff of smoke came out of the cave, and after about half a moment, a guard rushed up the stone path with a torch and a clay pot, and looked at the billowing smoke and fire coming out of the open cave, and in a panic grabbed the bamboo flute hanging on his chest and blew it vigorously.

……

At the end of June, the procession of the First Emperor arrived at Dongting Lake.

Because of the encounter in Dongting Lake three years ago, the first emperor still had lingering palpitations, so after arriving at Dongting Lake by boat along the Xiangjiang River, he docked at Luo County (now Yueyang City) and set up a line to meet with the local officials and celebrities of Changsha County and the common people and elders to show his gratitude.

A few days later, Qin Shi Huang led hundreds of civil and military officials to board Junshan Island in the middle of the lake again.

However, this time, Dongting Lake was calm and calm, and there were no waves at all, because autumn was approaching, and the sky was clear and there was no sign of rain, so it was very smooth.

Three years ago, a fire burned Junshan almost to the ground, now three years have passed, the island is still a scorched earth traces, except for the low thatched thorns can not see a big tree, the rebuilt Xiangjun Temple is very eye-catching and spectacular on the top of the mountain, the local people continue to build in recent years, plus there are melons and fruits incense all the year round to worship, so Xiangjun Temple looks like the incense is very lively, see the emperor ascend Jun Mountain to worship Xiangjun, the nearby fishermen have driven boats to bow to thanksgiving, so that the emperor has gained a lot of praise and praise.

After worshipping Xiangjun, the emperor was in a good mood to sail a boat to visit the country of Qianli Yunmengze, and met with the officials and squires of the counties around Dongting Lake, and the civil and military officials who followed also followed him to travel around the mountains and rivers.

Li Si is sick, and very sick, in fact, since he left Xianyang in March, Li Si's body has not been very good, although there are followers of the imperial doctor and the imperial doctor treatment, but the body is still not as good as a day, the old man who is almost seventy years old, plus all the way to accompany the emperor to wind and rain and eat and sleep in the dew, but also to continue to climb mountains and wade through the water, the body can not bear it at all, especially after leaving Langya, there is no such flat road as Dongfang Road, all the way potholes and bumps down, just after Wuzhong was completely ill, Although the emperor wanted him to stay in Wuzhong to meditate and recuperate, and when his health was better, he would be directly escorted by the forbidden army to Xianyang, but Li Si still refused.

If nothing else, he felt that this was the last time he accompanied the emperor on a parade, so he continued to follow the parade all the way, and when he reached the boundary of Changsha County, he took a boat down the Xiangjiang River and shook all the way.

And just when the emperor took the officials to inspect the Dongting counties by boat, a man in Miao costume, with a cloth towel on his head and a mask, also appeared outside Xingyuan near Luo County, carefully observed and inquired for several days, and then walked to the gate of Xingyuan. ()
