Chapter Eighty-Eight: Providence That Makes People Laugh and Cry

Fate, providence, and coincidence, these are all words that cannot be explained by science.

That's why it's called a low-probability event.

Under the premise of no positioning, no communication, and no map, all by luck, Li Xin was able to walk from Yanguo Pinggang Road to Qinhuangdao and through the boundless primeval mountains and forests.

After all, the two places are separated by more than 400 miles in a straight line.

And by coincidence, the remnants of the soldiers led by Li Xin were discovered by the mountain patrol troops led by Tu Tan.

And the first master of the 'tips' that prompted Li Xin to go south was Tu Tan.

This series of coincidences and small probability events made Wang Xu sigh to himself, and providence made people.

Two thousand Qin soldiers are different from two thousand savages.

These Qin soldiers are 'complete people' who grew up in a society that has formed values, and they are also the largest 'complete people' that Wang Xu has come into contact with except for Wang Li, Tu Tan, Zhu Jia and others.

How to deal with these Qin soldiers has become the biggest problem facing Wang Xu.

If it is not handled well, it is likely to bring disaster to the Lone Bamboo Country in advance.

So when Wang Li took the Qin soldiers back to the Lin Hu Department for repair, Wang Xu was silent, watching Wang Li stuff the precious ginseng into the mouths of those Qin soldiers without money, and did not stop it.

Wang Xu knew that Wang Li's mentality at this time couldn't listen to anything.

Finally, when Wang Li had dealt with all the wounded soldiers, although a few of them died of weakness after eating ginseng, the other wounded soldiers were placed in the stone palace to rest.

It was already dark.

Wang Xu had already finished dinner with the Lan Soldiers and was conducting a prayer ceremony around the bonfire, and they didn't have much thought about the sudden appearance of the Qin soldiers.

But the royal army became a little nervous.

Although the Qin army was embarrassed, the pressure brought to them by a complete and mature army was real.

"Emperor, these Qin people are all Da Liangzao's subordinates?" The ink wolf asked quietly with a worried face.

"It's his father's men." Wang Xu smiled.

"Was it called by Da Liangzao?" Ink Wolf continued to ask.

Wang Xu smiled and said nothing, "Don't worry about this, our main task now is to explore the city." ”

"With this Qin army, the city can be easily conquered." The ink wolf squinted his eyes and said with a somewhat indifferent expression.

Wang Xu chuckled and shook his head: "The captured city is also given to the Qin army?" ”

The ink wolf's expression froze, and his expression became subtle and complicated.

"Remember, you are a general, the Sima of the Lonely Bamboo Country, the general has to consider how to conquer the city, defend the country, and other things, naturally someone else will solve them, otherwise Si Kou, what do they do?" Wang Xu said with a smile.

After hearing this, the ink wolf turned pale with fright, knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Please forgive the emperor, the guilty minister has transgressed." ”

"Don't be so serious." Wang Xu smiled and helped him up, "I know that you have worked hard for the Guzhu Country over the years and have worried a lot, but now that there are other people fighting for the Guzhu Country together, you can relax a little and do your own thing." ”

Cold sweat broke out on the corners of the ink wolf's forehead, and he said respectfully, "Remember, minister." ”

Wang Xu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, looked at Wang Li, who was sitting by the river not far away, looking at the corpses of those dead Qin soldiers in a daze, sighed and walked over, and said softly, "Condolences." ”

"I'm just tired." Wang Li seemed to come back to his senses, and raised his head to reveal a false smile, "I heard Tu Tan say, you guided them here?" ”

Wang Xu narrowed his eyes slightly, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed." ”

"It must be, otherwise how could these people have traveled through the mountains and forests so coincidentally, and arrived here by a completely different route from ours?" Wang Li stood up and said, "You manipulated the will of heaven? ”

"No one can manipulate providence." Wang Xu chuckled and shook his head, "Burn these soldiers, and bring the ashes back to their hometown next year." ”

"The body is skinny, and the parents who receive it dare not destroy it, I will transport their corpses back to Xianyang." Wang Li suddenly said a little childishly.

"And then send the soldiers who managed to survive to the guillotine?" Wang Xu chuckled.

Wang Li was stunned.

"Obviously, they became deserters." Wang Xu shook his head and said.

Li Qi said that Li Xin listened to the mandate of heaven and chose to go south! It's your guide! Wang Li's eyes were cold.

"That's why they're going to guillotine." Wang Xu smiled and shook his head.

The corner of Wang's mouth twitched.

"Li Xin was born in a noble family, if your Wang family saves his life, he will naturally have an extra hole card when he is playing against King Qin." Wang Xu said with a smile.

"You're plotting for me?" Wang Li's expression froze.

"After death, the body is just a useless skin, the three souls and seven spirits have flowed into the heavenly realm, waiting to be reborn, burning the corpse is to cut off the last trace of dust, so that they can be reborn with peace of mind, and for the living, life continues, and ashes are a form of self-sacrifice for the living." Wang Xu said with a smile.

Wang Li looked at those young beings and nodded at the Zhu family.

The Zhu family wanted to speak and stopped, then glanced at Wang Xu, arched his hand at him, and beckoned someone to prepare the container.

"Li Qi said that Lu Sheng is your disciple?" Wang Li's spirit seemed to have eased a little, and he asked with a bowl of broth.

"Lu Sheng?" Wang Xu's pupils shrank, and he pouted quietly, "Sort of, but he just has a trace of immortality." ”

"Li Qi said, Lu Sheng conveyed your will to Li Xin and guided them here, what do you want them to do?" Wang asked puzzledly, "Li Xin is crazy, relying on the family's momentum and the king's favor, and disdainful of associating with his peers, as for the ability to command troops, that's it." ”

Seeing Wang Li sneering at him, with an unhappy look written on his face, he knew that he had a deep grudge against Li Xin.

However, it is also understandable that Li Xin is also a wealthy family, Li Xin commanded an army of 300,000 at a young age, if it weren't for bad luck, his military exploits might have caught up with Wang Ben's level, and he would be crowned a marquis immediately.

And Wang Li, as a child of a family and the grandson of Wang Qian, the pillar of the empire, is also approaching the age of a weak crown, but in Xianyang, he can only be a 'waste' who walks birds in a cage and runs rampant, of course, he is envious and jealous of Li Xin.

"Didn't you say it, Li Xin had a catastrophe in this battle, if the Wang family saved his name, he would have an extra hole card in front of King Qin at that time." Wang Xu smiled.

"Really?" Wang Li asked suspiciously.

Wang Xu smiled and shook his head, "You eat first, I'll take a look." ”

When he found Tu Tan in the Stone Palace, he was chatting with a weak man who was missing one eye, and he seemed to be very familiar with each other.

"The Great." Seeing Wang Xu coming, Tu Tan got up and saluted a little nervously.

The man with the missing eye struggled to get up.

Wang Xu waved his hand and stopped him, "Let's rest." ”

"Qin man Li Qi pays a visit to the emperor." Li Qi said respectfully.

"Li Qi, good name." Wang Xu smiled and nodded, "Tu Tan come out with me?" ”

Tu Tan glanced at Li Qi with an unnatural expression, and followed Wang Xu out of the room, "The emperor has something to do with me?" ”

"Lu Sheng is also the person you slaughtered in He Country? Why haven't you told me about him? Wang Xu asked with a smile.

Tu Tan's face was stunned, "Well, back to the emperor, Lu Sheng is not from Tu He country, but the cousin of Tu Shan Niangzi, Lu Sheng's ancestor used to be Mr. Ou Yezi's attendant, with Zhan Lu Jian as the surname, Lu as the surname, Zhan as the surname, Lu followed the Tu Shan family to drift to the Yan country, apprenticed to Zou Yan to learn the theory of yin and yang, and Lu Sheng claimed to be an immortal inheritance. Xianmen swore that he was quite famous in Yandi, and he had the art of alchemy, and at that time, for the sake of safety, I was able to quietly find General Wang Ben through Li Qi in the name of Lu Sheng. ”

"Li Qi should be Li Xin's personal soldier." Wang Xu squinted, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little subtle.

"Li Qi was also a ranger when he was young, and he was good friends with his ministers." Tu Tan subconsciously lowered his head, "But why did Li Xin flee here, the minister is indeed innocent." ”

"Then you said to Wang Li, I manipulated it?" Wang Xu asked with a chuckle.

Tu Tan's body stiffened, "But Li Qi said that Li Xin decided to go south because he got the tips given to me by the emperor at that time." ”

"What did I give you?" Wang Xu narrowed his eyes.

"Eh, the minister accidentally lost it, and I don't know how it fell into the hands of Li Xin." Tu Tan said with some embarrassment.

Wang Xu blinked and chuckled, "That's indeed providence." ”

Tu Tan raised his head suspiciously.

"Inquire about Lu Sheng's whereabouts, I am very interested in him." Wang Xu chuckled.

Wang Xu is indeed very interested in this scholar who will provide excellent materials for Black Qin Shi Huang in the future to 'burn books and pit Confucianism'.

"Yes, then Li Xin and the others." Tu Tan asked with some hesitation: "These Qin soldiers are not suitable for entering the court, or they are not suitable to live for a long time." ”

"I have my own arrangements, Li Xin will notify me when he wakes up." Wang Xu waved his hand, turned and walked towards his residence, he was ready to reorganize and plan the current situation.

Tu Tan watched Wang Xu's background go away, let out a long sigh, wiped the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead, and turned back to the room.

"This is the Emperor Yin Shang who descended from the Heavenly Realm? The vision of the double pupil is really expensive. Li Qi sighed at Tu Tan, "I don't dare to look at him more." ”

"The Great is not so terrifying." Tu Tan smiled.

"How can it not be terrifying? In front of him, I felt a sense of nakedness and uncontrollable fear. Li Qi said with some trepidation.

"Li Xin's tips were really given to him by Lu Sheng?" Tu Tan frowned and asked.

"After you left, Lu Sheng was left in the account by the general, and later Xianyang sent a letter asking Lu Sheng to enter the palace to treat the king's illness." Li Qi's voice was a little strange.

"Wang.... Did King Qin invite Lu Sheng into the palace? Tu Tan was shocked and blurted out.

Li Qi glanced at the direction of the door, "I don't know who told the news that it came to Xianyang, saying that General Wang Ben found Xianmen in Yandi, and swore an oath, which can cure all diseases and divinate bad luck, Wang Shang was curious, so he sent someone to invite Lu Sheng, and before leaving, he gave my general a hexagram, and gave him the tips." ”

When Li Qi spoke, the only remaining eye made a subtle eye contact with Tu Tan, as if conveying some unspeakable information.

Tu Tan narrowed his eyes after hearing this, revealing a strange smile, "That's really providence." ”
