The young man of the Jiang clan, no, it should be said that the young man of the Qin country, could see that he was very nervous, and stared at Zhao Hongrun intently.

Probably because of fear, a layer of mist faintly appeared in the young man's eyes.

"Hey, this isn't going to be ready to cry, is it? Doesn't it mean that the Qin people are all tenacious?"

Zhao Hongrun was shocked, hurriedly put away the dagger, and said, "Don't mind, I don't mean to harm you." …… It's just self-defense. He gestured to the dagger in his hand.

During the explanation, Zhao Hongrun looked at the young man in front of him who was suspected to be from the Qin State, and it was hard to imagine that the other party was actually a member of the clan with fierce folk customs.

This "folk style is fierce", but not Zhao Hongrun's hearsay, this is the description of "the people of Qinling" in the records of Gongxue and Wei history.

I don't know if it was the Qinling people at that time who gave a lot of help to the Ji surname Zhao, so that in the Wei history of the Ji surname Zhao, the Qinling people were praised as rare in the sky and rare on the earth, and respected them as "the clan side by side with Ji".

The Wei people, who are proud in their hearts, rarely respect a clan like this, even if it is the South Korea in the north that caused the Wei State to lose the war, although the Wei people are afraid of the Koreans, they always want to wash away the "Shangdang fiasco" one day, as for the Chu State, it is needless to say.

"Are you really from Qin?"

Zhao Hongrun muttered in a low voice.

"......" The young man seemed to understand the deep meaning of Zhao Hongrun's muttering, glared at him hatefully, and immediately stretched out his hand towards Zhao Hongrun, as if he wanted to retrieve the sword.

"It's not going to work." Patting the sword on his left side, Zhao Hongrun shook his head, shrugged his shoulders and said: "You can't have the heart to hurt people, you can't have the heart to defend people, you are just about to draw your sword and cut me." …… I'll keep this sword for the time being. ”

The ......" boy was silent for a moment. Slowly withdrew the hand that tried to retrieve the sword, but he couldn't take his eyes off the dagger in Zhao Hongrun's hand.

The implication is self-evident.

And this made Zhao Hongrun a little difficult.

To be honest, let him put the dagger back into his boot, to be honest, he was still a little stunned. After all, he didn't know if the other party could subdue him with his fists and kicks alone.

So, in the young man's stunned gaze, he reached out and squeezed the other's arm.

"Well, like me, it's soft, not like I've been exercising for a long time."

After thinking about it, Zhao Hongrun pretended to be cheerful and said, "Okay, for the sake of fairness, I will also withdraw my weapon." "Say it. He withdrew the dagger into his boot.

However, when he looked up, he saw that the young man was glaring at him with an angry face.

"What did I do?" Is it necessary to stare at me like that?'

Zhao Hongrun was a little inexplicable.

It seemed that he noticed Zhao Hongrun's inexplicable expression, and the young man calmed down the anger on his face, replaced by a look of disdain, and said lightly: "Unexpectedly, King Su, who defeated the Chu State, turned out to be such a cautious person. ”

He deliberately accentuated the words "cautious", full of mockery. It could be seen that he had realized Zhao Hongrun's intention to reach out and pinch his arm muscles.

"Haha. Prizes have been awarded. …… I didn't expect to meet the Qin people here. After that, Zhao Hongrun touched his chin and guessed with interest: "Are you here to sabotage the talks between my Great Wei and the three clans of the Qiang, the Xuan, and the Xuan?" ”

The young man stared at Zhao Hongrun solemnly for a long time, and then said in a deep voice: "If I say yes, will you kill me?" ”

"Of course not." Zhao Hongrun shrugged.

"That's 'yes.'" The boy replied lightly. Immediately, he glanced at Zhao Hongrun: "You won't go back on your word and kill me for this, right?" ”

『…… This guy has a worse personality than Mi Jiang!"

Zhao Hong grinded his teeth angrily. Forced out a smile: "Of course." ”

Looking at Zhao Hongrun's strange expression, the young man couldn't help laughing. Then, he looked at Zhao Hongrun and asked calmly, "How did you guess that I was from Qin?" ”

"Guess." Zhao Hongrun said casually.

"Guess casually, but can you guess in one word?" The boy's face was full of suspicion.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun shrugged helplessly and explained: "Of course, it can't be a random guess, you have to combine all kinds of credentials." …… The so-called residence of the small tribe of the Jiang tribe in your mouth is actually on the east side of the Qinling Mountains, right? In my opinion, there are two reasons why you are impersonating the small tribe of the Jiang tribe: first, if you impersonate the tribes of the Xuan, Qian, and Qi tribes in the land of Sanchuan, because these three tribes are familiar with each other, you are likely to be exposed. ”

"......" The young man was silent, and after a moment he asked in a low voice, "What about the second?" ”

"Second, I think you might have guessed that you might have met someone on the way who doubted your true identity, so you were prepared in advance, such as the answer to the questions I asked you just now. …… It's always more convincing to choose a small tribe near your Qinling Mountains that you are familiar with than to pretend to be a tribe that doesn't exist, right? ”

"......" The young man glanced at Zhao Hongrun deeply, and asked in an inexplicable tone: "Based on these two points alone, you will conclude that I am from Qin?" ”

Zhao Hongrun shrugged his shoulders and said without concealment: "Yes, the rest is just speculation." …… I don't think you happened to be here, you must have come because you had a plan, but you are not from the three tribes......"

"Why are you so sure that I am not from the three tribes of Karma, Karma, and Karma?"

"This is very simple, as far as I know, the Qiang people have a strong resistance to my Wei people stepping into the land of Sanchuan, if you are a Qiang people, after learning that I am a Wei people, there is a chance that they will not let me go easily, at least they will threaten and intimidate me. So, you won't be a Karma. ”

"What about the Gang and the Clan?"

"The Zong people, I have only come into contact with the Zong people, they are some quite hospitable people, they have almost no resistance to my Great Wei, they are as cold as you, not like the ...... of the Zong people" Speaking of this, Zhao Hongrun changed his words, scratched his face and said: "I really can't make it up, let me tell you the truth, just now I just had a guess in my heart, so I just cheated you casually, I didn't expect you to react so much." ”

I have to say that Zhao Hongrun didn't lie, just now, after combining all kinds of credentials, he seemed to really have a strange guess in his heart that "the other party is a Qin person".

For example, an ancient general could intuitually determine whether there were fierce beasts in the forest or a large number of enemy troops in ambush by the birds hovering over the forest.

Extensive experience and superior intuition can improve the accuracy of intuitive judgments.

And Zhao Hongrun obviously belongs to the latter, which is why Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Liang in the third Bonan, thinks he has "extraordinary talent".

It's just that this explanation can't convince the young man of the Qin State in front of him, I saw him frowning and carefully studying Zhao Hongrun's expression, as if trying to find traces of lying from the latter's face.

Sadly, he was never found.

"Forget it, let's just take it as it is."

"Hey, what I'm saying is the truth, what do you mean by 'just take it as it is'?" Zhao Hongrun said dissatisfied.

The young man laughed a few times, the indifference in his eyes faded a little, and he said in a tone that felt a little incredible: "You Wei people are not the same as the Wei people I know. ”

"The Wei people he knows?"

Zhao Hongrun was stunned for a moment, and said tentatively: "You mean the Ji surname Wei in Longxi?" ”

As soon as 'Longxi' was mentioned, the face of this young man from the Qin Kingdom seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun asked curiously: "You Qin State, are you really fighting with the Ji Wei clan in Longxi?" ”

"Hmm." The young man's tone instantly became indifferent, and his eyes glanced at Zhao Hongrun beside him from time to time, but to his surprise, Zhao Hongrun did not react excessively after hearing him admit this incident.

So, he was puzzled and asked, "Don't you care?" ”

"What do you care about?"

I saw that the young man of the Qin State pointed at himself and said in a deep voice: "In front of you is the Qin people who are attacking your Longxi Ji Wei clan Wei people. ”

"At the same time, it is also the person who once gave great help to the land of the Qinling Mountains when our Ji Zhao clan's Wei people migrated eastward, isn't it?" Zhao Hongrun said with a smile.

"......" The young man looked at Zhao Hongrun in surprise, and muttered after half a sound: "Your surname is Zhao...... Remember? ”

"yes." Zhao Hongrun shrugged his shoulders: "The teaching of the capital palace is taught." ”

"......" The young man carefully observed Zhao Hongrun's expression, and saw that his expression did not seem to be fake, so he said with emotion: "I didn't expect that your Ji surname Zhao still remembers the kindness with my Qinling people a hundred years ago, and this alone is much friendlier than the Wei people surnamed Wei in Longxi Ji." ”

may have mentioned the deep friendship between the Ji family surnamed Zhao and the people of Qinling hundreds of years ago, and the attitude of this young man from the Qin State immediately improved a lot, and his eyes were not as indifferent as before.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun asked curiously: "Why did you have a war with the Ji Wei clan in Longxi, can you talk about it if you don't mind?" ”

The young man looked at Zhao Hongrun for a while, and said in a low voice: "The Ji surname of Longxi is Wei, and he is trying to defeat the Qiang people with the help of the strength of my Qinling people. ”

"Isn't this normal diplomacy?"

Zhao Hongrun glanced at the other party puzzled.

The young man of the Qin State seemed to understand the doubts on Zhao Hongrun's face, gritted his teeth and said: "Their methods are very despicable, they did not ask for the help of our Qin people through diplomatic relations, they pretended to be Qiang people, and killed several villages of our Qin people, trying to make my Qin people compete with the Qiang people and the snipe mussels, and Longxi went to be the fisherman." ”

Zhao Hongrun opened his mouth and scratched his face slightly embarrassed.

From a strategic point of view, this trick is called "driving the tiger and devouring the wolf", using the power of the Qin people to deal with the Qiang people, and on the side of Longxi, it is good to watch the fire from the other side of the mountain and reap the benefits of the fisherman, which is a clever strategy.

But morally speaking, such an approach is indeed despicable, not a glorious thing.

If it were Zhao Hongrun, he would never do it, because once this matter is leaked, then Longxi will inevitably offend the people of Qin and push himself into a more dangerous situation.

In other words, it's a very risky strategy. (To be continued.) )
