Chapter 13: The Fight of Life and Death

It has been four or five days since Zhao Jun was whipped, and because of the care of Hu Zhao and Cao Wuxian, Zhao Jun's work has been slightly reduced in the past few days, and the injuries on his body have gradually healed.

The Qin Jun supervisor didn't know, for what reason, he hadn't been bothering Zhao Jun these days, of course, Zhao Jun didn't think that this supervisor would let him go, perhaps, he had ulterior motives, in short, Zhao Jun had been guarding against him.

Cao Wushu and Zhao Ling both hated the overseer half to death, but unfortunately the situation is stronger than people now, and they can only swallow their anger for the time being.

On this afternoon, Zhao Jun was working and thinking about how to escape, this place must not stay long.

"Boss, what do you see here, is there anyone in front of you who is peeing in the ditch? Ha ha. ”

Cao Wuxian, who was holding the bronze artemisia and shoveling the soil, suddenly pointed to a ditch in the distance, and the soil on it was soaked by the water traces, and it looked particularly dazzling in a piece of earthy yellow.

Zhao Jun stepped forward to look at it suspiciously, there were indeed traces of water, and then he went to the northwest and also looked at it, there was no longer labor there, there was a Qin army garrison, and then shook his head and said: "It's not human urine." ”

I was the furthest ditch from the dungeon, and there was no labor at all in front of it. And how could the garrisoned Qin army have the audacity to use the ditch in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang as a latrine?

If it is just one person secretly peeing, it is even more impossible, here is more than a mile away from the garrison of the Qin army, to say the least, who can be so powerful, how far is the peeing a mile?

Zhao Jun couldn't help squatting down at this time, pinched up a little bit of wet soil with his index finger and thumb, squeezed out a drop of water, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it. It's slightly heavier, it doesn't smell at all, and even if it's stained with dirt, it's more silvery than ordinary water trails, and it's evaporating at an incredible rate.

"Boss, is there anything strange?" Cao Wushu looked at Zhao Jun's movements and asked, he thought about it carefully, and he also felt strange.

Zhao Jun nodded and looked into the distance, where the Qin soldiers patrolled very closely.

"I'm not sure for the time being, don't talk nonsense, I'll go forward with you to investigate when I have time."

"Okay." Cao Wuxian nodded, but he couldn't help but guess in his heart.

At this time, Zhao Ling also ran over with a dirty face and asked what was the matter, but Zhao Jun didn't say it carefully, just told her that it was a little strange, and the little girl guessed and didn't guess it.

When it was time to finish work, after eating, Zhao Jun was about to rest, and Hu Zhao suddenly came to him.

"Brother Jun, let's go, let's watch the ring."

"The ring? What a ring. "Zhao Jun and Cao Wuxian, as well as Zhao Ling, were stunned when they heard it, in this tomb of the living dead, there is still a ring?

Hu Zhao smiled and said: "Hehe, you just came and didn't know that you were normal, we are here, we work all day and don't know sooner or later." But there is this life and death ring, competing with each other in martial arts, presided over by the Qin army, held every three months, the winner of the challenge, can go to the outside town to play for two days, and the Qin army is responsible for eating and drinking in the middle. ”

"What, and this good thing?" Cao Wuxian was the first to cry out, with a happy face.

At this time, Hu Zhao smiled and said: "Do you think Qin Jun is kind, they use this to open a gambling game, attract our attention, and make it easy to manage, and on the stage of life and death, as long as you step on it, either you die or you beat the opponent to death, otherwise you must not quit and admit defeat." ”

"Ah, so cruel?" When Zhao Ling heard this, he suddenly had a look of unbearability, this was completely a gladiatorial arena.

And Zhao Jun raised his eyebrows, this is completely Qin Jun, in order to let the prisoners vent their emotions, and they can take the opportunity to gamble to make money, and they can increase their fun, which is indeed clever.

Then, Zhao Jun's heart moved again, if they could challenge and win and get a chance to go out, then it was absolutely possible to take advantage of this to escape.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jun suddenly said, "Okay, you can take us to have a look." ”

As soon as they said go, everyone soon came to the center of the prisoner's activity area, and at this time the surroundings were already full of people, and a high platform was set up in the middle, surrounded by Qin troops.

And the people on the high platform, there are already strong men who are working hard, fighting for life and death, and the prisoners around them are all shouting, cheering and venting their emotions.

"Brother, do you think the people on the high platform are so fierce?" Zhao Ling looked at the high platform at this time, and the two prisoners were fighting desperately, as if they had a grudge against each other for killing their fathers and taking their wives.

Cao Wuxian was also moved, the two people on the high platform did not necessarily have profound martial arts, but where they were fierce and desperate, they were indeed like beasts, and their eyes were red.

"Ah, you give me death" At this time, one of them suddenly grabbed the head of the other person, and bit the man's throat with his big mouth.

The "click" was almost a crisp sound, and the man's throat was suddenly bitten off, and after just two struggles, he fell to the ground, and his throat was bitten by the man.

The victor roared in the sky, his mouth full of flesh and blood, like a fierce beast, and the onlookers on the high platform also shouted loudly, and the scene was extremely bloody for a while.

At this time, Qin Jun stepped forward and shouted: "Who else, who else will challenge." ”

"I'll come." At this time, another person came to the stage and fought with him.

Zhao Jun couldn't help but be moved below, these prisoners didn't even want their lives in order to have a chance to go out and see the light of day.

Next, the fight began again on the stage of life and death, and in general it was still very tragic, of course, there were many good players, but this prisoner was once a bandit from all over the world, and which one of them was a good stubble.

"Hu Tou, why are there so few people here, and what rules are this being challenged according to?" Zhao Jun is a little strange, it stands to reason that this opportunity is so precious, and it is once every three months, so the onlookers should be far more than these, and there are not many Qin Jun around to bet.

Hu Tou smiled and said: "There are hundreds of thousands of prisoners, and there are more than a dozen rings like this, and they are held for a total of five days, and every day is after the end of work." As for the rules, you have also read it, there is no need to talk about the rules at all, the winner must accept the challenge of others, if you win five games in a row, you can not fight for the time being, and wait until the end between the strong ones, challenge each other again, until each high platform, the final winner is one person, and this person will have another chance to go out.

However, there is also a sequence of going out, usually ten people, every two people go out. ”

Zhao Jun frowned when he heard this, he had three people, even if they all won, they couldn't go out together, no matter who he was with, the remaining one would definitely be difficult to get out.

The fight to the death in the ring lasted for two hours before it ended, the more to the back, the more powerful the challenger, Zhao Jun was a little surprised by this, it seems that there is indeed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in this prisoner, there is no shortage of good players, and in order to go out once, these people are indeed fighting for their lives.

It's just that when Zhao Jun went back to rest, he still didn't think of any way to let the three of them have a chance to go out together.

"Boss, why don't you and Sister Ling'er go first." When Cao Wushu went back, he suddenly said to Zhao Jun, and he basically understood Zhao Jun's thoughts at this time.

It's just that Zhao Ling next to him shook his head and said, "No, don't hurt my brother, you go with my brother, I can't beat those people if I go to challenge." Zhao Ling is really not sure that she can win those challengers, and she is saying that she doesn't want Cao Wuxian to die here for herself.

Zhao Jun shook his head and said: "Victory challenger, there are more than a dozen in the end, and it is also random to arrange which two people go out together, it will not be so easy, just two together." ”

After hearing this, the two of them looked dark, and finally had a chance to go out, but they didn't expect it to be so difficult.

"Hutou, is there any way for the three of us to go out together?" Zhao Jun found Hu Zhao before going to bed and asked, since Qin Jun has this life and death platform, he believes that it must not be so simple, otherwise hundreds of thousands of people, there will be more than a dozen chances, and it will not be able to stimulate so many prisoners to fight hard.

Hu Zhao glanced at Zhao Jun at this time, his expression moved, he knew that Zhao Jun had never given up his plan to escape.

"Yes, that is to challenge the first ruthless man of the prisoner, Yingbu, as long as you defeat him, you can choose any three people, go out with you, and go to Xianyang City to play for two days. Yingbu also has a title, that is, the king of life and death, Qin Jun has always used him as the person who suppresses the ring, which is why Qin Jun takes special care of him. Of course, Qin Jun also wanted to use this Yingbu to deal with some people who were not easy to manage among the prisoners. Hu Zhao said suddenly.

"Yingbu?" Zhao Jun was stunned when he heard this, the first ruthless person in the prisoner was Yingbu? Sure enough, it was him, one of the five tiger generals under Xiang Yu in history, Yingbu, who was brave and good at fighting. As early as when he knew that this was the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, he vaguely guessed that the ruthless man should be Yingbu, because before the fall of the Qin State in history, Yingbu was in the Lishan Mausoleum.

It's just that he didn't expect that Yingbu actually had the reputation of the first ruthless person in the mausoleum, and was also used by the Qin army to suppress the life and death ring, and he wanted to escape, so it seemed that he had to challenge him.

Hu Zhao nodded and said: "That's right, the ruthless man before was called Yingbu, but he was blackened because of Qin law, also known as Dubu, from the time he came to the ring of life and death, the number of people who challenged him was countless, but no one was victorious, and the people who died under his hands were countless." Moreover, there are many people who have been favored by him here, because after every ring, he can order three people at will and go to Xianyang with him, so although he does not form gangs among prisoners, no one dares to provoke him easily. ”

Zhao Jun nodded, understood, Yingbu has this hand, it's not bad to ask him, who would dare to offend him, the life and death ring is not so easy to go, how can it be so simple.

Of course, this is also Qin Jun's beautiful play, using an Yingbu can not only suppress the thorns in those prisoners, but also give some people thoughts, so as not to cause trouble to them, simply put, this life and death ring is definitely a big help for Qin Jun to manage hundreds of thousands of prisoners.

However, these prisoners knew that it was Qin Jun's strategy, but they could only be led by the nose.

Zhao Jun secretly made up his mind that no matter how famous Yingbu was in history, he had to challenge him, and he had to defeat him, so that he could have a chance to get out of here and then escape.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jun said to Hu Zhao: "Hu Tou, you are familiar with the Qin army, help me talk about it, just say that I want to challenge Yingbu?" ”

Hu Zhao was stunned, his face was full of shock, and his eyes were full of different colors.

It's just that he thought about it for a while, and suddenly nodded and said, "Ah Jun, in fact, from the moment you came here, I knew that you were not an ordinary person, and your heart was very big." However, I advise you to think clearly, Yingbu is a very powerful person, I have seen with my own eyes, he defeated a dozen sword-wielding Qin army armor soldiers with his bare hands, and he was as fierce as a wolf. Among these countless prisoners, if he can be called the first, you know how powerful he is, are you sure? ”

"Thank you for your care, I've already decided." Zhao Jun nodded affirmatively.

After Hu Zhao listened, he was silent for a moment, raised his head and said: "Okay, but we finally met by fate, let me tell you, the overseer you offended before is not an ordinary overseer, and he has a few connections in the Qin army, so you'd better be careful." ”

"Hu Tou, you mean" Zhao Jun was stunned.

Hu Zhao nodded: "That's right, so, you have to be mentally prepared." ”

Zhao Jun's eyes were cold at this time, this overseer had humiliated himself before, and he must be killed sooner or later. It's just that he didn't say anything, and the most important thing in front of him was to challenge Yingbu.
