"Brother, how's the arm?" While walking quickly, Ying Zheng asked Xiang Qiang.

"The bleeding has stopped a long time ago, and it won't get in the way." Qiang said, "But big brother, listen to what that guy said just now, now there are their people on all the hills, could it be that they are just waiting for us?" ”

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment and said: "It's not impossible, but it seems that they are not in the same group as the pursuers behind." ”

"Fortunately, if they had cooperated, it would probably have been a different outcome." Qiang said.

Solin said: "Otherwise, let's go back and solve those pursuers first, and then talk about the rest of the matter?" ”

Qiang retorted: "This is not appropriate, first, we still don't know the specific number and subordinates of the chasing soldiers, and second, we can't let the eldest brother take such a big risk." ”

"It doesn't matter if you take the risk or not." Ying Zheng said, "I want to hurry up, and when we get to the destination, we can find help." ”

"Helper?" The little brothers were surprised at the same time.

Between the mountains and mountains, there is not even a family, where to find a helper?

"Hehe, do you remember the Nightshader?" Ying Zheng said.

"Of course I do." Qiang said, "Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I can imagine what the little beast will look like when it grows up, so it must be ......."

Ying Zheng said: "Our helper may be better than the Xi Beast in terms of combat power, it depends on whether it will make a move." ”

Only then did the two remember that this trip was to accompany Yingzheng to find the divine beast, and the brothers couldn't help but be fascinated, imagining the appearance of the divine beast.

Skirting a difficult peak along the valley, the three brothers decided to climb over a low peak that was also impassable due to dense grass and shrubs.

If there is an ambush, clean it up, and by the way, see if you can catch a live one, and then inquire about the news.

The pursuers behind did not move, but noticed that two falcons suddenly appeared circling overhead.

"Oh no, this falcon was probably released by the pursuers." Qiang Road.

When they go out hunting or hunting wolves, they often use this method to determine the movement of their prey.

Thorin raised his hand for an arrow, but the range was clearly insufficient.

He was about to raise his hand and shoot again, but was stopped by Yingzheng.

"Save some arrows and save them for the Assassins."

The three brothers packed up their outfits and began to climb upwards.

Halfway up the mountain, I faintly heard the sound of each other killing each other on the top of the mountain.

What's the situation? Is there really a rescuer?

Ying Zheng made a silent gesture, slowed down the pace of the two of them, and moved forward.

Approaching the top of the mountain, the shouting of swords and swords gradually stopped, and the three brothers hid behind a large rock and looked that way.

I saw two young men dressed as Orions holding their swords against the throat of a man in black, as if they were asking something.

Around them, six corpses lay on the ground, seemingly breathless.

Qiang Qi said in a low voice: "It doesn't seem to be a rescuer, it seems that these two hunters have a conflict with these ambushes." ”

The sound was not loud, but the two hunters seemed to have strong ears.

"Who?"

One of them aimed his bow in this direction, while the other calmly maintained control of the Assassin on the ground.

Seeing that Ying Zheng had been discovered, he slowly stood up and raised his hand to signal: "Brother, don't be nervous, we also clashed with these robbers, killed five on the other side of the mountain, and fled here." ”

The Orion saw that the three of them were also dressed as Orions, and they looked embarrassed, and the knife was still stained with blood, so he put away his longbow.

"You've done it with them, too?" Orion asked.

Thorin preemptively said: "It's almost a day's time, and there are still a lot of pursuers behind, just with these few miscellaneous pieces, it won't make us so embarrassed." ”

It was indeed embarrassing, the moisture on the three of them had not yet dried, their clothes had been cut, there were still a few large bags of bee stings on their heads and faces, and Qiang's arms were still oozing blood.

"How far are the pursuers from here?" The Orion asked, "How many are there, and why are they hunting you down?" ”

Ying Zheng said: "It's a long story, we were hunting in the mountains, and suddenly we met a group of people, and released a lot of bees to sting us, so we were chased to a river, I thought that it would be okay if we wet our clothes, shoes and socks, but I thought that there were still people ambushing there." ”

"Those people should be the mountain bandits here, we saw that they were outnumbered, so we ran with all our might, and we wanted them to chase after them."

"On the hillside behind, there were five of their accomplices lying in ambush, intercepting our retreat, and after a fight, they escaped here."

Ying Zheng said this, and Solin in the back took the opportunity to give medicine to the Qiang fistula and re-bandage the wound.

No one noticed that the Assassin on the ground, whose leg was wounded, listened to their conversation, his eyes fluttered, and his hands moved.

I saw him suddenly raise his hand, but before the sword in his sleeve was issued, he saw the hunter who was watching him raise and fall with his sword.

Half of the arm flew out.

There was a scream, and the assassin rolled on the ground.

The hunter beside him slashed again, and the forest fell silent again.

Orion spat out: "How about you invite thieves when you die?" ”

Ying Zheng said gratefully: "Since the two brothers also clashed with them, they are likely to be chased and killed by them, so it is better to go on the road together and help each other." ”

The two hunters looked at each other and nodded.

Qiang Qi said: "There was a falcon hovering on it just now, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's find a hidden place and talk again." ”

Several people nodded yes, and then ran over the mountain and towards the valley.

Finally, they arrived at a hidden place, and all five of them sat down to rest and breathe.

Ying Zheng looked at the two hunters and asked, "Look at the two people who are not very old, I don't know where they are, why did they run in the barren mountains and mountains." ”

The hunter who had spoken to him before hugged his fists and said: "My name is Zhao Tuo, eighteen this year, and this is my sworn brother, named Yang Huai." Both of us are from Zhao and have been practicing martial arts since childhood, so this time we are here to experience and try our skills. ”

Ying Zheng arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Zhao Tuo and Yang Huai, two brothers. ”

Yang Huai replied: "I don't know where you are. ”

Ying Zheng said: "We are all from Qin, and we came here to hunt and take a look at the scenery." ”

"Sure enough." Zhao Tuo said, "The robber said that he was ordered to kill a few Qin people, and at first we didn't believe it, but now it seems to be true." ”

Qiang asked, "What else did he say?" ”

Yang Huai said: "I just said that they hit the wrong person, but we cleaned it up, and begged us to spare his life, but judging from his final performance, it was you who they wanted to assassinate." ”

Ying Zheng looked at the two young hunters on the opposite side and said, "They are indeed coming for us, it has nothing to do with you, you better find a way to escape." ”

Yang Huai looked at Zhao Tuo, as if he was asking what he meant.

Zhao Tuo said without thinking about it: "We can't take this matter off our feet, after all, the people who killed them will definitely be hunted down if they run out." Besides, I also have relatives in the Qin State, and it is also my duty to help you survive this catastrophe. ”

Ying Zheng was interested and asked, "Do you have relatives?" What's your name, I can take you to visit when I'm gone. ”

Zhao Tuo smiled bitterly: "Although it is a close relative, I have never seen it, I have a cousin who followed him to the Qin State when he was a child, and it is said that he also entered the palace and became a celebrity around the current King of Qin." There is also an aunt, who is said to be the mother of the country of Daqin, and the cousin born to the aunt is even more amazing. ”

Ying Zheng's mouth was wide open, and he was stunned on the spot.

What Zhao Tuo refers to is clearly Zhao Gao and Zhao Ji!

Qiang Qi said on the side: "Little brother, this parent can't be recognized." If you have such a background, why don't you go to the Qin State to seek a fortune. "How can you confess, it's all from my father." Zhao Tuo said, "My father said that he was still young at that time, and only later did he hear from my grandfather that when my grandfather was young, he adopted a daughter of the royal family surnamed Ji, that is, my aunt, and then I had an uncle and my father." ”

Later, grandpa married that aunt to Daqin's proton, but he didn't expect to become a queen in the future. Later, my aunt and her cousin, who is now the king of Qin, left Zhao and went to Qin, and her grandfather wanted his grandson to grow up, so he sent him away from Handan. ”

"I wasn't born when they left. My cousin's name is Zhao Gao, and I think you've heard of it. ”

Of course, Yingzheng knows this past better than anyone else.

In that year, Lü Buwei received the order of the Taigong Zu and married the woman surnamed Zhao to his father Yingyiren, and later after having him, his father Yiren returned to Daqin as a prince, and then the Battle of Changping broke out, Zhao Ji was forced to take Yingzheng in advance and rushed back to Qin under Lü Buwei's response.

Old Man Zhao gave his grandson Zhao Gao to Zhao Ji, in anticipation that Zhao Gao could show his prominence in the Qin State.

Although Zhao Ji and Zhao Gao have no actual blood relationship, she also loves this little nephew very much. It's just that Daqin's laws are strict, and if you want to enter the palace, you must become a eunuch, so Zhao Ji was ruthless and took Zhao Gao into the palace, but since then he has concealed this previous relationship.

Ying Zheng's eyes shook, stood up and said: "The relatives you mentioned, they are all good, and they often miss Zhao Guo's home. ”

Of course, Zhao Tuo heard the meaning of this, and said suspiciously: "Could it be that Brother Tai is with them...... Familiar? ”

Without waiting for Yingzheng to speak, Solin laughed beside him and said: "Of course the ripe can't be more ripe, the one in front of you is your cousin who was born in Zhao Guo as you just mentioned!" ”

"Huh?" Zhao Tuo was taken aback and said, "You, you, you are ...... King Qin?! ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "That's right, I'm Ying Zheng, if what you say is the truth, I'm also your cousin." ”

Zhao Tuo met his bloody cousin in the deep mountains, but he was more surprised, his hands trembled slightly, and he knelt down on one knee and said, "Zhao Tuo meets my brother." ”

Ying Zheng hurriedly helped him up: "Brother, get up quickly, I don't know how my uncle and aunt are doing?" ”

Zhao Tuo got up and replied, "My body is fine, but I am a little embarrassed." ”

"Embarrassment?" Ying Zheng was puzzled, "How can your Zhao family be considered a nobleman of the Wang Sect, how can you be embarrassed?" ”

"My brother doesn't know." Zhao Tuo sighed and said, "When you left, grandpa gave some money and made a little bit, but unexpectedly, those old stubborns couldn't make it for you, and they turned their heads to anger grandpa. ”

"Grandpa was ostracized, so he sold the house. and also told the person who bought the house that if someone surnamed Qin Guoying came to find him, he would find a way to inform him. But until Grandpa was dying, he didn't look forward to you. ”

Ying Zheng said in his heart: No wonder I accompanied Hu Yu back to Zhao a few years ago and went to the old house, the old couple was a little strange, presumably they thought of their grandfather's entrustment, but they also knew that their grandfather was gone, so they didn't speak.

"It's my fault, I should have gone to Zhao Guo to see it a long time ago."

Zhao Tuo shook his head and said, "How can I blame you, you finally escaped at that time, how dare you come back easily." ”

"And then?" Ying Zheng asked.

Later, my grandmother followed my grandfather, and my aunt probably missed her cousin, fell ill, and passed away. In order not to be sad, my uncle joined the army by himself and was never heard from again. ”

"Daddy took us to the east of this Huashan and found me a master to teach martial arts."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's apology to the Zhao family, especially Zhao Gao, increased a little more.

"When it's over here, take me to meet your father." Ying Zheng said, "When I was a child, he always hugged me, and when I went to ask him, would he like to take you back to Qin with me." ”

Zhao Tuo thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, let's rush out!" ”
