Volume 1 Don't Look Back Chapter 22 Crisis
Hearing that the long sword behind Qin Chuan was worth hundreds of gold, except for Yan Hui, the other sergeants showed a strange look in their eyes.
Yan Hui's next words lifted the hearts of the other sergeants. I only heard a burst of surprise from Yi Yanhui: "Such a precious long sword, but it is not common, I have been in the army for many years, but I am only interested in weapons, I wonder if the prince of Qin Chuan can lend me the long sword?" ”
Looking up and seeing Qi Yan Hui's expectant gaze, Qin Chuan was originally reluctant in his heart, from the moment he first came out of the city gate, he felt that Qi Yan looked back at the long sword behind him with a slightly different gaze, but after a period of contact, he didn't feel anything wrong, and after thinking about it, he shook his head and refused Qi Yan Hui's request.
"Brother Yan, it's not that I won't let you see it, it's just that when I bought this sword, the blacksmith told me that this sword is too murderous and can't be taken off easily, otherwise it will be killed, and you can only take it off after you get to Linyuan City. Thank you for your understanding. Qin Chuan said apologetically.
"Don't get in the way, since the prince of Qin Chuan has something unspeakable, then I won't force it, it's better to wait until Linyuan City, can the prince of Qin Chuan borrow the long sword to take a look?"
Hearing that Yan Hui gave up his plan to look at the long sword behind his own back, Qin Chuan also breathed a sigh of relief, and agreed with a smile: "That's natural." ”
A mile or two further on, there was a hill on the road, and next to the hill were two abandoned houses. It looks like it's been deserted for a long time, and it's not early in the day, so it's always better to find this shelter from the wind, and the winter nights are a bit chilly.
Walking closer to the house, three sergeants went looking for firewood, and the other three went to the neighborhood in search of something to eat. And Qin Chuan also helped Yan Hui to start cleaning up these two rooms.
A short time later, three sergeants brought a pile of firewood from nearby, and the other three sergeants also came back with two hares. Seeing that there was a hare, Yan Hui laughed and said to Qin Chuan that he had a good fortune today, and he must let Qin Chuan taste his unique craftsmanship, and swore that he would have a different flavor.
A few people gathered around the fire, chatting while roasting rabbit meat. After the rabbit meat was roasted, Qin Chuan grew a little, and it really had a unique taste and made people have an endless aftertaste.
After eating the rabbit meat, Qin Chuan yawned, leaned against the wall and quickly fell asleep. After Qin Chuan fell asleep, several sergeants came to Yan Hui's side, glanced in the direction where Qin Chuan was, and when they saw the wrapped long sword, their eyes showed a greedy gaze, and then they whispered: "Captain Wu, that child is asleep, are we ......" said and made a head-cutting action in his hand.
Yan Hui took a hard bite of the rabbit meat in his hand, his mouth kept chewing, and his eyes began to change. Looking up at the fiery gaze in the eyes of the sergeants around him, he sighed, and whispered to a few people: "I can't bear it, he is still a child after all." ”
Qi Yan Hui's words undoubtedly made the eyes of several people stagnate, and one of the soldiers closest to Qi Yan Hui said eagerly: "Big brother, now is not the time for a woman's kindness, think about the oppression we were subjected to before, and then think about the hundreds of people in our Yan tribe, if we don't do it, the consequences will ......."
"Don't say it, let me think again." Yan Hui said to the others.
The seven people of Yan Hui are the escort team carefully selected by Gan Long, and the task this time is not just as simple as escorting, but after leaving the boundary of Yongcheng, Qin Chuan needs to be killed by the most cruel means. If this task is successfully completed, the men of their tribe will be promoted to the rank just like everyone else, and not only that, but the entire Qiyan tribe will be protected by Ganlong, and at least they can migrate from the barren land of Xituo to the vicinity of Yongcheng.
Yan Hui didn't lie to Qin Chuan about this matter, their clan did offend a big man, resulting in the men of their clan being almost the lowest level in the army, there was no pension for death, there was no military merit for killing the enemy, and they were always arranged at the forefront.
Ganlong's conditions were exactly what Yan Hui had dreamed of for Yan Hui, who had always wanted to develop the entire clan into a big clan. Therefore, without the slightest hesitation, he agreed to Gan Long's request, and there was this escort.
He had heard all about what Gan Wuqian had done, and every time he couldn't help but pick up the long sword and fight for life and death with this guy who was inferior to a beast, but thinking about the tribe behind him, he forcibly suppressed this idea in his heart, until Qin Chuan injured Gan Wuqian, and he even secretly drank a few bowls of bad wine at home.
Only he himself knows that Gan Long not only wants Qin Chuan's life, but also the sword behind him is also favored by Gan Long, although he doesn't know what kind of magic weapon it is, but Gan Long is bidding for a thousand gold to let him bring this sword back, so that with this thousand gold capital, the rise of the Yan tribe is just around the corner.
In Yan Hui's heart, although he didn't have a good impression of Qin Chuan, he also didn't have much bad feelings, especially when he learned that Qin Chuan was the young man who injured Gan Wuqian, if there was no condition for Gan Long, he would even be grateful to Qin Chuan in person. But in the face of the clan's development plan, these are deeply hidden in his heart.
But after dozens of miles of contact, seeing Qin Chuan endure the soreness of his legs and not be born, as well as that heartless smile, how could Yan Hui's original firm determination be shaken a little, he felt that a child like this should not die so early, at least not in his own hands.
Especially when Yan Hui heard Qin Chuan's words that everyone is equal, there is no war, there is little education, there is income from labor, and there is support for the old, Yan Hui was really moved, he thought that if it were not for the people who had the world in mind, they would never say this, maybe Qin Chuan Gongzi could really live that kind of life for the whole world. So if a few of them kill Qin Chuan, will such a world not exist?
Yan Hui has been thinking about this question.
After waiting for a long time, the hesitant look in his eyes gradually disappeared and gradually became resolute, as if he had made up his mind.
The other six people clenched the long sword in their hands at the same time, staring at Yan Hui, just waiting for him to give an order, and then swung their swords and stabbed towards Qin Chuan.
Looking at the movements of the surrounding sergeants, Yan Yan Hui stretched out his hand to signal them not to act rashly, and then solemnly said to a few people: "Brothers, for the sake of the entire Yan tribe, I really want to be ruthless once, but we can't do this. After Yan Yan finished speaking, he glanced at the sergeants around him, and saw the incredible expressions on their faces.
"I know that everyone hopes to exchange the life of Prince Qin Chuan and the long sword behind him for the rise of our clan, but think about it, we have been in the army for ten years, and although we have been oppressed, have the men of our Yan tribe ever done something against our conscience?" Yan Hui said in a low and serious voice.
"Big brother, if we don't take the life of Prince Qin Chuan, the lives of the old and weak women and children of our entire tribe will not be guaranteed!" A sergeant looked at him with red eyes.
Yan Hui suddenly felt speechless for a while, was silent for a while, sighed and said: "Prince Qin Chuan is different from us vulgar people, he is a person with great perseverance and great luck, and his life is more important than the lives of all of us combined. Brothers, I admit that I agreed to the order of Gancheng Decree because I was blinded by lard, and after this incident, I will bear all the consequences, and I will never affect you brothers. ”
"Big brother, no."
"Big brother, think twice."
......
Just when the others persuaded Yan Yan to return, a thin sergeant, with red eyes, drew the long sword in his hand and slashed towards Qin Chuan.
"Third child, stop." Yan Hui shouted, and a lunge rushed forward, snatching the long sword from the sergeant's hand, and then kicking the emaciated sergeant in the stomach.
The thin sergeant clutched his stomach and looked at Yan Hui with red eyes, "Big brother, my baby is only two years old......"
Hearing this, Yi Yan reclaimed the foot that was about to kick out, squatted down, pulled the thin sergeant up, patted him on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Third child, do you know how many wives and daughters of the dead brothers in the army were saved by the prince of Qin Chuan who seriously injured the demon king of the Gan family, do you know that the second lame brother who died in the end after blocking a sword for you, the whole family was tortured to death by the demon king of the Gan family." There is also the second child of the Wu family, who carried you back from the pile of dead people in one breath, and his father and son were stabbed to death by the demon king of the Gan family with a snowman and stabbed to death with a sword on the street. And now you're going to kill the prince of Qin Chuan who came out for them......"
The sergeant lowered his head and bit his lip to keep himself from crying.
"Brothers, although our tribe is weak, we can't do anything to take revenge." Yan Yan continued to speak.
The other sergeants also bowed their heads, as if ashamed of their actions.
Yan looked back at everyone's expressions, knowing that his words had an effect, and he was relieved in his heart.
The sound of several arrows breaking through the air was heard and shot into the room through the window.
"There are enemies, watch out for arrows." Yan Yan pulled out the long sword on his body and said loudly.
The others sought shelter, but the houses were dilapidated and could not withstand the arrows that came in.
Suddenly, an arrow flew through the wall and flew quickly towards Qin Chuan, who was leaning against the corner of the wall and sleeping. The thin sergeant closest to Qin Chuan did not hesitate to dodge in front of Qin Chuan, and the arrow passed through his chest with a pop.
Maybe it was because he had walked too much during the day, so Qin Chuan slept very hard, and it wasn't until he Yanhui screamed that he woke him up from his sleep, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw the thin sergeant spitting blood from his mouth and slowly falling beside him.
"Third ......" Yan Hui's voice came from the side.
The sudden change made Qin Chuan come to his senses at once, and before he could see what was happening, he only felt a big hand grabbing his feet, and his body left the place just now.
With two groans, two arrows were nailed to the wall just now.
"Prince Qin Chuan, there is an enemy, hurry up behind me." Yan Hui shouted towards Qin Chuan with an anxious expression.
Without bothering to ask the reason, Qin Chuan's body was broken, so he arrived at Yan Hui's side, hurriedly got up, and hid behind him.
"Brother Yan, what's going on?" Qin Chuan looked at Yan Hui with some shock.
"In case of attack, Prince Qin Chuan be careful, follow behind me, and we will kill together in a while."
Qin Chuan nodded, and a murderous aura began to spread around.
