Chapter 417: The first level bounty, an inexplicable assassination.
Qin Zhiyong knows more than Xunzi. In terms of mathematical knowledge alone, the heads of the "hundred schools" in the pre-Qin era were not as good as Qin Zhiyong.
But Qin Zhiyong didn't have a trace of pride.
Due to the limitations of the general environment and the times, the sages of China have acquired very little knowledge, but they are the pioneers and creators of Chinese culture. The strength of the sages is the heart and spirit, and the spirit of exploration.
If the sages of the Hundred Schools had an experience like Qin Zhiyong and had the opportunity to gain knowledge from various eras, then their achievements would definitely be above Qin Zhiyong.
There is still some gap between Qin Zhiyong and the sages of the pre-Qin era. Although the sages had no true qi and no primordial spirit.
The sages were the pioneers of civilization, and Qin Zhiyong was nothing more than the inheritor of Confucianism. There is still a big difference between the founder and the successor.
But who dares to underestimate them, who can underestimate them, and who is qualified to underestimate them?
Xunzi handed the written bamboo slips to Qin Zhiyong and said, "This is a letter written by the old man, you can help me bring it back to Zhao State." Leave it to me...... Clansman. ”
Due to the lack of resources, pen and ink bamboo slips must be spared. In order to maximize the use of limited resources, every word written by Xunzi contains its own spiritual energy. When the ancients wrote articles, they were really working hard.
Some sages, after writing an article, will even lose their heads overnight.
Qin Zhiyong can focus on reading and doing things, but he can't do it like Xunzi's state of study.
Qin Zhiyong took the bamboo slip and said cautiously: "Teacher, rest assured, the student will definitely hand over the family letter to the teacher's relatives!" ”
The meaning of the family letter can be understood by Qin Zhiyong. It's not as casual as making a phone call and sending it to WeChat in the Internet era.
The family letter is worth 10,000 dollars, which is not an exaggeration at all.
Xunzi said with a smile: "You go and prepare first, and set off early tomorrow morning." ”
Qin Zhiyong returned to the room to pack his things. In fact, he didn't have anything to pack, just a few strips of coarse cloth clothes and two pairs of shoes.
Li Si and Han Fei found Qin Zhiyong again.
Li Si brought a long sword to Qin Zhiyong and said, "Little junior brother, when you come out of the teacher, I guessed that you would leave the Jixia School Palace." When I went out, it was not very peaceful, so I prepared a long sword for my junior brother to use for self-defense. ”
Li Sixue's imperial mind is not small, and his ability to observe words and colors is not small.
Qin Zhiyong said: "Thank you, senior brother, I will go to Zhao State with the mission, there will be no danger." You don't need to bring a sword. ”
Han Fei said: "It's still ...... Bring a sword...... More completely. ”
Qin Zhiyong said: "I don't want to be an enemy of anyone. I believe that no one can hurt me, not even the monarch. ”
Qin Zhiyong's tone was filled with great confidence.
In terms of martial arts, even the sword saint Cao Qiudao is not the enemy of Qin Zhiyong's move. Only Xunzi knew that Qin Zhiyong knew martial arts, and everyone else thought that Qin Zhiyong was a powerless scholar.
Qin Zhiyong's appearance is young, slender, easy-going, and not the slightest aggressive. He doesn't show his martial arts cultivation, who can know that he is a strong man with immortal means?
Packed my bags.
Qin Zhiyong said: "Two senior brothers, I have to leave tomorrow. In the evening, I cooked by myself and invited the two brothers to dinner. ”
Lees said, "Okay. I have long been worried about the cooking skills of my little brother. ”
Han Fei swallowed.
The food made by Qin Zhiyong is really delicious. As long as I ate the food he cooked, and then went to eat other foods, I felt that the food was tasteless and difficult to swallow.
Qin Zhiyong left the Jixia School Palace this time, and he didn't know when he would be able to taste his cooking skills again.
…………
Cao Qiudao was dressed in black and holding a long sword in his hand, standing in the gloomy room.
Squeaky.
The door opened.
A girl of eighteen or nineteen years old walked in.
The girl carried the long sword on her back, walked to the back of Cao Qiudao, and said respectfully: "Disciple Shanrou, I have seen the Lord." ”
Cao Qiudao turned around, looked at Shanrou, and said, "Your mission this time has been completed very well. I have many disciples, but there are not many of them who can enter my Dharma eyes. As far as swordsmanship is concerned, Shanrou, you have obtained my true inheritance. It's just that your skills are still shallow, and you still need to hone a lot. ”
Shanrou's swordsmanship attainments are actually less than Cao Qiudao's three percent.
Cao Qiudao is a great master of swordsmanship. He can be called the "Sword Saint" by the people of the world, and he is fought by virtue of his strength. It's just that Cao Qiudao hasn't made a move for ten years. No one knows what kind of realm his current swordsmanship has reached.
Shanrou said: "The disciple's swordsmanship has not yet entered the Hall of Elegance, and the Lord still needs to teach him. I don't know if the Lord has asked Shanrou to come, but what is there to command? ”
Cao Qiudao said: "You just completed the task, and it stands to reason that you will be given a break for a while." But there's a new task that requires you to work harder. ”
Shanrou said, "Lord...... Can I leave the task to someone else? ”
Cao Qiudao shook his head and said, "Everyone else is not suitable. The person to be killed this time is not ordinary. I have arranged your identity, you join the mission and go to the country of Zhao. Find an opportunity and kill Qin Zhiyong. ”
Who is Qin Zhiyong?
Cao Qiudao saw Shanrou's doubts and explained: "Qin Zhiyong is a student of Xunzi, and this guy is very low-key in the Jixia School Palace, and he is not ostentatious at all. But Xunzi is very important to him. ”
Shanrou exclaimed, "The student who assassinated Xunzi? This ......"
As a killer, Shanrou usually takes on the task of assassinating some bandits and robbers, or some officials. There are so many such people, and no matter how many assassinations they make, it will have no effect.
Xunzi is a great sage, and when the king of Qi sees Xunzi, he has to give three points. Assassinating his disciple was no joke.
Cao Qiudao snorted coldly: "Qin Zhiyong has no grievances with us. But now that someone is offering a high price and asking for Qin Zhiyong's head, let's just collect money to do things. Xunzi's disciple is only, what are you afraid of? As long as the price given is enough, even Xunzi can be assassinated! ”
Cao Qiudao secretly said in his heart, let alone Xunzi, even if he is a king, he will assassinate himself.
I have to say that Cao Qiudao is very arrogant. But he has crazy capital. As a great master of swordsmanship, he is full of martial arts, as long as he does not fall into the army, there is no danger.
Shanrou took a deep breath and said, "Yes." I will take Qin Zhiyong's head as soon as possible. ”
Cao Qiudao said: "Don't be anxious. In the territory of Qi State, do not move. If Qin Zhiyong died in the Qi State, Xun Zi was afraid that he would not give up, and then the King of Qi would investigate the matter. But if the mission leaves the Qi State, Qin Zhiyong's life or death has nothing to do with the Qi State, even if Xunzi finds the King of Qi, the King of Qi can have an excuse to shirk. ”
Shanrou nodded and said, "Shanrou obeys the orders of the Lord. If there is nothing else, Shanrou will retire first. ”
Cao Qiudao said: "You go down and prepare, and set off with the mission early tomorrow morning." ”
Looking at the back of Shanrou leaving, Cao Qiudao secretly said in his heart: "Third prince, I have already explained what you ordered." As long as Qin Zhiyong leaves the Qi Kingdom, it will be his death. ”
