Chapter 321: Chinese New Year's Eve
Zhuge Teng saw the power of firecrackers, and was very happy, thinking that Guan Yingzheng wanted more, and when he had nothing to do, he went to the river to fry fish and play, but he was embarrassed to speak.
Ying Zheng asked him to raise some more bamboo, wooden tubes and sulfur and other necessary materials for making gunpowder, and Zhuge Teng agreed.
Ying Zheng did not rush to Luoyi, but sent people to continue to inquire about Xi's whereabouts.
As expected, for more than ten days, there was no news of Xi, as if it had disappeared out of thin air.
Ying Zheng understood that Xi was hiding, spying on his movements in secret, and if the Qin army withdrew now, Xi would definitely set off a bloody storm.
However, during this time, there have been a lot of forks in the people.
In order to seek peace, some people sacrificed the cattle and sheep raised at home and offered them to the Xi Beast, but they were taken away by some lazy idlers, but the family thought that the Xi Beast was really coming, so they decisively reported to the officials and found officers and soldiers to round up the Xi Beast.
Later, I found out that there was a joke.
Some people, even if they saw a wild cat, set firecrackers on fire and asked everyone to round up the strange beasts.
What's more, he stole the neighbor's sheep, but said that the night beast had come and took the sheep away, so he went to prison.
Similar things emerge one after another, Ying Zheng is secretly funny, this Korean folk customs are really different from Daqin.
However, Ying Zheng knew that as long as he stayed here, Xi would not show up.
Simply, go to Xinzheng to visit King Han, when you come to South Korea, you don't even see face, and you don't give face to this uncle, although King Han has no face in his eyes.
When passing by Luoyi, Ying Zheng saw Han Fei's family, and then told Han Fei how he was killed and his dying entrustment.
The mother and daughter cried like tearful people, and begged Yingzheng to help them take revenge.
Ying Zheng agreed, and at the same time had a plan in his heart.
After leaving Luoyi, he arrived in Xinzheng the next day, and Yingzheng sent someone to hand over the post.
King Han changed his careless style, and talked and laughed at Ying Zheng and his temperament, and did not delve into the cause of Han Fei's death, but only expressed a little sadness, and also showed that he sent Han Fei to assist King Qin in governing the government, but he was sincere, but he was disturbed by the night beast.
Subsequently, King Han held a dinner party and exchanged cups with Yingzheng.
During the banquet, Ying Zheng inquired about the location of Han Feina's old mansion and said that he wanted to go there to see it.
Where did King Han care about that, he only thought about how to flatter the Qin State, and it didn't take long for him to get drunk.
The next day, Ying Zheng called Li Si, drove a carriage, and came to Han Fei's old house.
Although this house is old, it doesn't look dirty, and it seems that Han Fei often came to clean it before.
According to the position mentioned by Han Fei, the two people found six large boxes, which were full of books.
Ying Zheng turned over the pages, all of them were articles that he had never seen before, with sharp pen and jumping thinking, most of them were to explain the problem to the point, and it seemed that it was Han Fei's secret work.
What makes people feel strange is that there are a lot of experiences about the art of war in it, and it actually analyzes many of the art of war very profoundly.
It seems that this Han Fei is really hidden, and he is indeed a generation of ghosts.
The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the more he felt pity, and he couldn't stop shaking his head.
After sorting out the books, the two returned to the camp.
"Sir, who do you say these Han Fei's legacy efforts should be handed over?" Ying Zheng asked suddenly.
Li Si said: "The king didn't promise, he wanted to leave it to the most down-to-earth one among the Han clan." ”
"But even if we find such a person now, what's the use of us." Ying Zheng hesitated and said, "If this person is after he finishes his studies, he helps South Korea deal with us, wouldn't it be a shooting shot on his own feet." ”
"This
To also. Li Si nodded lightly and said, "However, in Weichen's opinion, the king only promised that Han Fei would fulfill his last wish, but he didn't say anything time to complete it. ”
Ying Zheng blinked and said, "You mean...... Wait until the widow destroys Korea, and then fulfill his last wish? ”
"Or else?" Li Si said with a smile, "I see, Han Fei just felt that Korea would be swallowed up by Great Qin sooner or later, so he first asked you to treat King Han well, and then handed over these books to the most down-and-out person in the Han family, otherwise the current Han family is a royal clan, how can there be any down-and-out people." ”
After Li Si said this, Ying Zheng completely understood what Han Fei meant at that time.
"I understand, when the widow reigns in the world, find a descendant of the Han family and help him."
The two of them laughed and drove back to the camp.
Two more ponies brought back the news, and the Nightfall Beast appeared.
In the area between Michi and Luoyi, a farmer was attacked, but fortunately there were firecrackers, and no one was killed, except for a calf dragged away by the night beast.
Unfortunately, the round-up team arrived a step too late and was escaped by it.
"Humph! It seems that I can't stand it anymore because I'm hungry, and I finally come out. Ying Zheng said indignantly.
Li Si said: "I'm afraid that if I am full, I will disappear for another month." ”
"If that's the case, you can only make a trick and let it take the initiative to drill into it." Ying Zheng said, "Now that we have entered the wax moon, the search is too difficult, and we can't delay it any longer." ”
"Your Majesty, let's disguise ourselves as ordinary soldiers and go back secretly." Li Si thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't seem to want to meet you, it will only come out if you are not there." ”
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, that's it." ”
The two of them changed their outfits, blended into the team, left a letter for King Han, and set off to rush back to Luoyi.
Interestingly, many people from other countries have come here to see this strange ancient beast for themselves.
There are a lot of hunters from the Qi country.
The Wei State was dominated by aristocrats who rode in chariots.
The state of Chu even sent a team of 3,000 people to cooperate with the encirclement and suppression.
And Zhao Guo not only sent a team, but also brought several large iron cages.
The only thing that I didn't see was the Yan people, probably because the distance was too far and they were still on the road.
Looking at this scene, Ying Zheng scratched his head a little, and asked Li Si: "Sir, this matter is really big." ”
"It's a big deal." Li Si said with a grin, "There are more people, and it's not easier to search." ”
"The whole world knows about Xi, but I'm afraid that the secret between me and the dragon clan will leak out." Ying Zheng said worriedly.
"The legendary divine beast, not to mention the night, the king doesn't have to be too nervous." Li Si said, "What's more, in the future, as long as the king unifies China, he doesn't want to say what he wants, after all, most of the people have not personally participated." ”
Ying Zheng sighed lightly and said, "Okay, it seems that in the future, I can't think of unification." ”
Ying Zheng still did not show up, he asked Meng Wu to come forward, integrated the people from all countries, set out from Mianchi, and advanced to Luoyi in three ways to drive away the Xi Beast.
Its purpose is to narrow the range of activities of the Xi Beast and facilitate the containment of Luoyi.
Meng Wu is the secretary of the Qin State, with a high status, a great reputation, and the largest number of teams, of course, he responds to every call.

In this way, the Seven Kingdoms, which had been fighting for hundreds of years, stood on the same front because of a common enemy.
The snow can't hide the behemoth's tracks, and as the search range narrows, the Nightfall beast can't move around casually.
But no matter how well it is hidden, it will inevitably be discovered, and the Nightfall Beast is still surrounded.
But in the face of such a ferocious, huge beast, this improvised patchwork team
Wu, with the rusty, most people were so frightened that their legs and feet were weak, although they also injured Xi's shoulder, but they still let it escape.
After this battle, the rumors of the night beast were confirmed, and it also stimulated the people's determination to encircle and suppress the alien beast, and more and more people joined the encirclement and suppression.
Fortunately, the Xi Beast really fled in the direction of Luoyi as Ying Zheng expected.
This day is the thirtieth day of the lunar month, the last day of the year, and according to the ritual system, everyone needs to worship their deceased relatives and ancestors.
In a mountain range outside the west of Luoyi, a woman knelt down in front of a stone monument and sobbed, and next to her knelt a teenage girl.
The tombstone is inscribed: The tomb of the deceased husband Han Fei.
This woman is Han Fei's wife, and the girl next to her is Han Fei's only daughter, Han Yueting.
Mrs. Han sobbed and placed the offerings away, then stroked the names on the tombstone, and muttered to herself: "Husband, how can you bear to leave our orphans and widows, you are so ruthless......
The more they talked, the more sad they became, and the mother and daughter cried loudly on the tombstone.
After crying for a while, Xiao Yueting wiped her tears and said loudly: "Mother, I want to kill that beast and avenge my father!" ”
Mrs. Han stroked Han Yueting's head and said, "Good boy, if you have this filial piety, your father will be blinded...... It's just that the beast is too ferocious, how can you cure it at your young age......"
"I don't care!" Han Yueting stood up, "I just want to kill that beast, it's a big deal that it eats me, I'll accompany my father." ”
When Mrs. Han heard this, she cried even more sadly.
Call......
A gust of wind blew, and a huge figure flashed in the mountain forest.
"Ahh
Mrs. Han screamed and hurriedly stopped Han Yueting in her arms.
The black shadow moved, and rushed towards their mother and daughter, extremely fast.
Although she was taken aback, Mrs. Han's eyes widened, she wanted to see what the giant beast that hurt her husband's life looked like.
Sou!!
An arrow feather shot and went straight to the face gate of the sunset.
Yuki ducked his head, and his speed slowed down.
Whizzing......
Two more arrows flew, one straight for the wound in its shoulder, and the other for its left rib.
Yuyi rolled over and rolled on the ground, barely dodging the two arrows.
But at the moment when it was on all fours facing the sky, I saw another arrow feather shot from the east, south, and west directions, and the arrow was still wrapped around a bamboo joint, and at the end of the bamboo joint, there was also a fire line!
Yuki turned around vigorously, then leaped backwards.
Rumble!!
Three firecrackers burst at the same time, the sound shook the sky, sparks flew everywhere, and the broken bamboo pieces flew away in the direction of the sunset.
Xi used his two front paws to protect his head and face in the air, and at the same time, he flew out upside down with a "whoop".
It already has rough skin and thick flesh, and its front paws are particularly tough, but it still has a few cuts, and the broken hair falls to the ground.
This wail, but most of the time it was because of the loud noise, which made its ears numb and dizzy.
turned his head backwards in the air, and then landed on the ground, how could he take care of Mrs. Han's mother and daughter, turned around and ran.
Now, how could Xi not understand that it was a trap, and the mother and daughter were the bait that led it to appear.
And Mrs. Han's mother and daughter were still far away from the few firecrackers that exploded, and they were basically not injured.
Behind Xi, several more arrow feathers with firecrackers flew from three directions, and it had no choice but to run to the north, where there were no arrow feathers.
Han Yueting broke free from her mother, picked up a stone and threw it at the Xi Beast, but unfortunately it was too far away.
