Chapter 303: Underestimate the enemy
The palace was dark and silent, without a sound.
The door slowly opened, and the middle-aged man holding the Broken Water Long Sword followed Zhao Gao into the palace.
There was not a glimmer of fire in the palace, only the light of the moon, which shone through the skylight, bringing the only light to the temple.
Zhao Gao walked to the only place of light in the temple, and around him, there were dark shadows.
"Zhao Gao, you brought us here secretly, for what?"
There was a bit of fierceness in the hoarse voice. The owner of the voice can't see the face clearly, but it gives people the impression that it is not easy to mess with.
Zhao Gao's face was still gloomy, but his words were completely different from the past, with a little confidence, his tone was a little higher, and he no longer looked like he was in a low voice.
"Your willingness to come proves that you all know that the net is facing a great crisis. How to choose has become the key. ”
"Choice? You're asking us to choose you! ”
A sarcastic voice came, I don't know who said it, but Zhao Gao didn't care.
"The net is a killing weapon, and since its existence, it has been used by people and is also using others. And the reason why it can exist to this day is because Luo Wang understands," Zhao Gao smiled slightly, "A killing weapon, whose hand can play the most valuable role!" ”
"Why are you?"
Faced with doubts and killing intent, Zhao Gao was not afraid.
"I'm not the one who holds the weapon, I'm part of it. The Qin State needed this killing weapon, but now, this killing weapon had exceeded the direction it should go, heading towards destruction. ”
Zhao Gao's words made all the people present in the net silent for a long time. Seeing this, Zhao Gao added another handful of firewood.
"Only humble enough can one be reassured; If the net continues as it is now, it will only lead to destruction. ”
For a long time, in the dark, someone made a sound.
"What do you want us to do?"
"Wait for the end of this power struggle within the Qin State, and then stand by the side of the victors."
"Until the last minute, who knows who will be the winner? Are you making us wait so that we can help you to victory? ”
"No... It's not you who are helping me, but I'm saving you! ”
The word "save" made the scene tense again. There are so many swordsmen in the net that they kill people without blinking an eye, and they are unruly, how can they allow others to say this word to them?
Zhao Gao seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and only said two words softly.
"Zhao Shuang!"
The name calmed down those present. In the palace, it was still full of murderous intent, but it was no longer facing Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao seemed to be very satisfied with this effect and spoke softly.
"I never doubt that as long as Luo Wang gives this Hanyang-kun a chance, he will not hesitate to uproot us. Isn't what happened in Mt. Osawa and Mikawa enough to prove it? ”
"Zhao Shuang!"
In the darkness, when someone reads this name, there is no lack of resentment. The feeling as if he was going to be devoured alive was far away, and Zhao Gao could still feel it.
"But there's nothing we can do about it. Luo Wang is weakening, and he is too busy to take care of himself, how to deal with this high-flying Hanyang Jun? Moreover, even if the net is still the same net, it may not be able to deal with it? ”
"So what are we going to do?"
The obvious female voice appeared in this environment, with a bit of softness, which seemed a little abrupt.
"The sword can't hurt this king, but as a top assassin in the net, you should understand that it is never only the sword that can kill."
Zhao Gao looked at the woman with heterochromatic pupils in front of him, and a smile appeared on his face.
"And what can kill him?"
The woman's inquiry was a little urgent, and the hatred was overflowing, not at all like what an assassin should show.
"Sword of the Son of Heaven!"
Zhao Gao's answer was clean and neat, without any mud and water. After saying this, he no longer looked at the woman in front of him, but raised his head and looked at the people in the net.
"How?"
After a long silence, the woman with heterochromatic pupils in front of Zhao Gao took the lead in kneeling down.
"Meet Lord Zhao Gao!"
Then, one after another, voices sounded in this palace.
"Meet Lord Zhao Gao!"
"Meet Lord Zhao Gao!"
……
Until the last person knelt down, Zhao Gao raised his hand and asked them to stand up.
"From now on, I will be the leader of the net!"
..............
The moonlight hung high, the figures were far away, and in the empty hall, only Zhao Gao and Duan Shui were left.
"Lord Zhao Gao, they have surrendered, what should they do after that?"
"People don't matter when it comes to the net. As long as the sword does not die, the net will always exist. My current strength is not strong, but as the situation in the Qin State gradually becomes clearer, there will be more and more people on my side......"
"Interesting!"
A soft voice reverberated through the temple; Two sword shadows appeared in front of Zhao Gao.
Duan Shui pulled out the long sword in his hand, and in the face of the two swordsmen of the "First Class of the Net", he didn't dare to be careless.
Xuan Jian and the startled salamander walked into the hall from both sides, approaching Zhao Gao, and they were very close to him.
Zhao Gao was not flustered, looked at the startled salamander, and smiled slightly.
"Salamander 'My Lord', have you finally shown your feet?"
The salamander wore a spider-patterned mask, and the long sword in its hand was unsheathed and did not speak. It was Xuan Jian on the side who took the lead in speaking.
"It seems that you are more daring than I thought."
"Zhao Shuang won't kill me, because he knows that I still have use value. In fact, I was doing the same thing as him. And without me helping him, there are some things that will be difficult for him. ”
"Not only are you bold, but you're also smart. However, there is one thing you said wrong. ”
"What?"
Zhao Gao showed no traces on his face, but an abrupt feeling arose in his heart.
"It's not that you're helping you, it's that he's helping you."
As the wind blew, a faint smell of blood came from outside the window, Zhao Gao's face changed, but he saw Xuan Jian smiling.
"You're careful enough, but not careful enough. Chang Yu seems to be reckless, but in fact it is not easy to deal with, let alone Lu Buwei, who is still behind. ”
Xuan Jian smiled, separated from the startled salamander, and walked away from both sides.
"Lord Zhao Gao, we-"
Zhao Gao snorted coldly and clenched his hands.
"I know what you're going to say!"
Zhao Shuang was able to send people to find this place so accurately, and he was also able to get rid of the spies mixed in it, which means that in addition to the startled salamander, Zhao Shuang's forces have already infiltrated the net, and they are still hidden quite deeply.
Now Zhao Shuang doesn't want to see the net form a force, but is happy to see it fall apart. But what about after that?
"But I won't give Zhao Shuang a chance to kill me!"
Zhao Gao's face was solemn and cautious.
