Although it is winter, it is not yet a warm spring, and there is still a little coolness after sunset.

At night.

In the dark street, as every family fell asleep, a figure suddenly appeared in the dark alley.

Two drunken men were staggering down the dark street, talking about the woman they saw in the restaurant, thinking about the woman's seductive figure, and thinking about how enjoyable it would be if they could hold it in their arms.

However, when talking about the woman going to the private room, there was no lack of envy for the man in the private room.

Walking and walking.

Fang just came to a corner, in the hazy moonlight, while the two were talking, a dark shadow could be vaguely seen, standing in front.

"Who?"

One of them opened his mouth curiously, but at the moment of opening, a faint cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and the next moment, with the faint sound of the blade breaking through the air, the man snorted and slowly fell to the ground.

Another drunken companion finally vaguely saw at this time that the black shadow was actually holding a sharp blade in his hand.

The wine instantly sobered up, but before he could turn around and run away, he didn't even have time to shout, and the next moment the man suddenly felt a pain all over his body, his pupils widened, his body slowly numb, he lost consciousness, and looked ahead.

Shout!

As the companion fell, behind him, a black shadow also held a sharp blade, and if you got close, you could faintly see that it was covered with blood, sliding down the blade, slowly falling from the tip of the sword.

"Up!"

Accompanied by a voice sounded.

In the hazy night, several black-clothed people stepped forward, stuck to the wooden board, and knocked rhythmically on the wooden door, and after a while, the originally closed wooden door slowly opened in an instant.

"People are in there!"

The man who opened the door for the men in black whispered.

When the men in black heard this, they all held sharp blades and walked towards the room.

"Who?"

"Who are you???

"Don't!!"

Voices soon came from the quiet room.

And on the street, listening to the movement from the cottage, a voice sounded again.

"Ignition!"

Soon, as the torches were slowly lit, the flames of more than 30 torches instantly illuminated the entire street.

And at a glance by the light of the fire, men dressed in black stood almost all over the street, numbering no less than a hundred, and more than twenty, armed with curved bows.

The black-clothed man at the head was only about twenty-seven or eighteen, looking at the small house in front of him that had the door opened, and his eyes were on the second floor.

The man in black was in no hurry to let the rest of the people kill him.

Xiao She was in front of him, there were enough people here, and even in order to prevent accidents, he also specially brought more than 20 archers who were good at bows, and whether it was arrows or the swords of the rest of the people, they had been smeared with poison.

This time, no matter how powerful Qin General Bai Yan was, he didn't want to escape.

However, the man always kept in mind the entrustment, and tried his best to save Bai Yan's life and take him to the Chu State.

Long.

As the footsteps in the small hut sounded, it didn't take long to see several black-clothed men dragging a few men to the man in charge.

One by one, the men in black were thrown to the ground, and under the light of a few torches, the men in black took out a piece of cloth from his arms, looked at the portraits on it, and then glanced at the men kneeling on the ground.

"I beg you to spare us!"

"My lord, we are just businessmen, and I hope that your life will be spared!"

The men in coarse cloth clothes looked at the people with torches and swords around them, and they were all so frightened that they peed their pants, afraid that they would be killed.

"It's not Qin General Bai Yan!"

Looking at the portrait of Bu Nei, the man led by him had a vague bad premonition after confirming that none of these people was Qin General Bai Yan.

"Bring that little guy here!"

The man turned his head and ordered.

But at this moment, there is no room for much thought, looking at the small house in front of him, the man's expression is full of solemnity.

"No one is allowed to leave this lodge!"

The man ordered.

Hearing the man's order, the rest of the black-clothed people immediately took the order, turned around and rushed towards the small house, and the movement that had only disappeared for a long time instantly sounded again.

This time, not only the scared voices of the men, but also the screams of some women.

The man handed the cloth with the portrait to a cronie next to him and asked him to go up and inspect it.

And at this time, the little guy who opened the door for them was also brought to him by the man in black, when asked if the person he saw today was the man kneeling on the ground in front of him, the little guy took a look, and then was stunned, and slowly shook his head.

The little guy was also confused at the moment.

Before sunset, he obviously saw those people living in those small houses, why did he suddenly become these people in the middle of the night.

"Who let you live in the lodge?"

Seeing this, the man at the head turned his head to look at the man who was kneeling on the ground and was arrested.

"My lord, we don't know the man either, but the man gave us some money and told us to spend the night here, and said nothing else."

"Yes! My lord! We don't know the man! ”

When the man heard the inquiry, he scrambled to explain, wanting to clear up the relationship.

But before they could speak.

After the man learned of what had happened, he could no longer control the anger in his eyes, and motioned to the person next to him to do it.

In a flash.

With the gesture of the leader man, one by one the men in black rushed forward with sharp blades in their hands, and the screams rang out one after another, and in an instant, several men all became corpses and fell in a pool of blood.

This scene made the little guy's heart tremble.

"Leave no mouth alive, burn here!"

The man at the head looked at the small house in front of him, and was already convinced that Qin General Bai Yan had left, but when he glanced around and didn't see the ambush, the man breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment the man realized that this was not a leak of news, or that there was an internal ghost, but that Qin General Bai Yan was too cunning.

"My lord, then I promised before."

Seeing that the man was about to leave, the little girl thought of the glory and wealth that the man had promised him before, and he stiffened his head and laughed wryly.

However, as the man glanced at it, the look made the little guy stunned, and before the little guy could react, he suddenly felt a tearing pain in his back, and then slowly fell to the ground.

"Throw it in and burn it together!"

The man looked at the corpse of the little servant, his eyes were full of impatience, and he didn't even find anyone, but he dared to ask for a reward.

Late at night.

With the roaring fire of Xiaoshe, the city gate guards of the entire Yangxia City were instantly attracted, and it didn't take long for the quiet streets to be shouted, and one by one the Qin soldiers were in a hurry to extinguish the fire, and many ordinary people were awakened one after another, standing on the street and watching.

And not long after, the city guards of Yangxia City, city captains and other Qin officials came to the small house one after another, surrounded by Qin officials.

"What's going on?"

Yang Xia City City Guard Bao Xian looked at the fire that had ignited in the small house, and asked the Qin pawn who came and went to fight the fire with doubts.

However, Qin Shu didn't know what the situation was.

At this time, Qi Li, the city captain, suddenly beckoned Bao Xian to come over.

Bao Xian looked at the small house that was burning with fire, thought about it, or risked it, and raised his sleeve robe to block the thick fire, and came to Qi Li's side.

"Look!"

In Bao Xian's puzzled gaze, Qi Li pointed to the blood stains on the ground.

Seeing this, Bao Xian's pupils shrank.

"Have anyone ever escaped from the fire?"

When Bao Xian realized that this was a murder, he quickly turned his head and asked the Qin pawns and Qin officials around him, wanting to know if anyone could escape from the small house.

However, when the people around heard Bao Xian's words, they looked at each other and quieted down.

Bao Xian and Qi Li looked at those Qin officials, and then looked at the people watching from a distance, and suddenly glanced at each other, and a thought that made them full of cold sweat slowly emerged.

It won't be that no one will live out, right?

It's not that there is no one alive!

Who can unknowingly send so many killers into the city, and who else can make this force use so many killers to assassinate? Is the assassin dead or alive at this time?

One by one, doubts appeared in the minds of Bao Xian and Qi Li.

Next.

As the news of the fire in Xiaoshe spread quickly, not to mention that Qin Official, who was not very tight-mouthed, told about the murder, even if he found so many charred corpses after the fire, he couldn't hide it at all.

After dawn, pedestrians on the streets could be seen everywhere talking about it.

And next to a small shop in the north, Bai Yan, Storm Yu, and Lu were in a corner next to the shop, drinking water and eating unpalatable coarse corncakes.

"When did you get the message?"

Storm Yu looked at Bai Yan curiously.

Listening to the discussion of the people in the distance, Tyrant Yu couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately listening to Bai Yan, he secretly left the cottage in advance and went to the casino to find some gambling losers, but Tyrant Yu was very puzzled, he and Bai Yan had been together, and he had never seen Bai Yan receive the news.

With Tyrant Yu's words, the Yan Yan on the side also looked at Bai Yan suspiciously, since the general knew that someone would assassinate him last night, why didn't he let those soldiers ambush in advance.

"Uncle Yu, Bai Yan actually didn't know that someone would commit murder last night, let alone any news."

Bai Yan swallowed the coarse corn cake, smacked his lips and touched the remaining food in his mouth, and shook his head at Tyrant Yu.

"Three nests of cunning rabbits, now going south, it's always right to be careful, Bai Yan left a heart yesterday, and never thought that he just escaped a catastrophe."

Bai Yan explained.

After listening to Bai Yan's words, Storm Yu was full of surprise, took a bite of the corn cake gently, and then looked at Bai Yan.

"The people who know that Ru is going south, even the Qin State court, there are few people, and if they can settle down in Yangxia before we arrive, they will know where we are staying."

Storm Yu thought about it, and then looked at Bai Yan with a serious expression.

"I'm afraid that the court of the Qin State and the army led by Wang Ben will have the Chu State in detail!"

After Storm Yu finished speaking, his breathing was slightly short, and his eyebrows were a little worried.

Tyrant Yu knew that from Bai Yan receiving Ying Zheng's order and going south, to the assassin coming to assassinate him in the middle of the night that day, whether it was the Qin court or the Qin army camp, it was difficult to do without any step.

"General, do you want to uphold Xianyang and inform the king of this matter, I believe the king will be able to find out thoroughly!"

When he heard Tyrant Yu's analysis, he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, so he looked around and asked cautiously.

When Bai Yan heard his words, he suddenly laughed and looked at him.

"Why isn't it that there are ghosts in Shanwu City, why isn't it the news that we accidentally leaked!"

Bai Yan asked.

He quickly shook his head.

"How is this possible, the general has been careful all the way, and no one knows at all."

He denied that he knew how hidden their whereabouts were all the way south, and all their identities were fake, but they were all well documented.

Unlike Yan, hearing Bai Yan's words, Tyrant Yu fell silent.

Tyrant Yu knew that Bai Yan's words were right, this matter was presented to Xianyang, although Yingzheng was angry, but it was impossible to suspect all the ministers who knew about it, and when Qin and Chu were at war, the monarchs and ministers were suspicious, which was a big taboo.

Not to mention who can guarantee whether Bai Yan was careless, or if there was a good and no city, or even a coincidence, the news of Bai Yan's southward journey leaked.

The only thing that is certain is where the Qin army camp is fine.

And this matter does not need Bai Yan to speak, yesterday's incident of Xiaoshe must have made Gao Ze, the general sent by Wang Ben, break out in a cold sweat, I am afraid that Gao Ze has ordered someone to bring the news to Wang Ben overnight as soon as possible.

"Yangxia can't stay any longer!"

Tyrant Yu knew that last night's assassination was unsuccessful, so those people would definitely look for Bai Yan everywhere and attack in search of opportunities, and the soldiers brought by Gao Ze could no longer be easily trusted, and no one knew whether Xi Zuo was among the five hundred.

"It's better to quietly go to the Qin army camp as soon as possible and join Wang Ben."

Storm Yu looked at Bai Yan, Yangxia and even the surrounding cities must have been unsafe, and they must leave as soon as possible.

Under the gaze of Storm Yu, Bai Yan shook his head.

"No, if Bai Yan goes to the big camp, and the Chu State and Xianyang work carefully, there will be no scruples, only continue to hide, so that the generals of the Chu State can't find it, so that they can be jealous."

Bai Yan said.

Thinking that the back was the sudden rebellion of Changping Jun, which caused Li Xin and Meng Tian to almost die in the territory of Chu State, Bai Yan would never go to Wang Ben at the moment, Wang Ben's soldiers and horses were all taken over from Changping Jun, and many of the generals were Chang Wenjun's cronies.

Once you go, if Changping Jun really wants to do it, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Judging from last night's events, Bai Yan has determined that it was Chang Wenjun who sent the news to the State of Chu.

"Uncle Yu!"

Bai Yan thought about it and looked at Storm Yu.

"Uncle Yu still has old friends in the Chu State, and the matter of the decided, as well as the Ruoao family, will bother Uncle Yu to work hard."

Bai Yan looked at Tyrant Yu.

Zhao Qiu said that if the Ao clan still has forces hidden in the Chu State, Zhao Qiu will not lie to him, and that Chengding will find it no matter what.

At present, Qin and Chu are at war, Bai Yan has to focus on the side of Chu State, and if he finds the affairs of Chengding and Ruo Ao, he can only hand it over to Tyrant Yu to do, and Tyrant Yu knows more friends than him in Chu State, and the chances he finds will be greater than him.

"Don't worry! If it is decided, it will be handed over to me to find! ”

When Tyrant Yu heard Bai Yan's words, he nodded and did not refuse.

"But now, now that the State of Chu has learned that you are coming, it will definitely send a large number of small servants to secretly search, if you don't go to the Qin army camp, you will be in a very dangerous situation."

Storm Yu looked at Bai Yan.

Compared with going to Chu to find Chengding, Tyrant Yu is still more worried about Bai Yan's safety, in fact, in the eyes of Tyrant Yu, in the face of Chu State looking everywhere at the moment, the safest place is still where Wang Ben is in the Qin army camp.

"Don't worry, I have a solution!"

Bai Yan told Storm Yu not to worry.

Had breakfast.

Bai Yan separated from Tyrant Yu, and he went to inform Gao Ze and asked Gao Ze to go to the city guard of Yangxia City, and ordered the city gate to be opened, and let the people and merchants enter and leave the city as in the past.

Two days later.

He came to Bai Yan's side and watched Bai Yan by the window, fiddling with stones.

"General, Lord Yu has left Yangxia!"

He said to Bai Yan.

Looking at Bai Yan, he didn't know what to do at the moment, the small house in the city was still in turmoil, and there might be danger everywhere on the seemingly lively streets.

And if it is really like what Tyrant Yu said, I am afraid that other cities also have the eyeliner of Chu.

Wherever the army of the Qin State is, before General Wang Ben has thoroughly investigated, the general must not easily reveal his whereabouts.

"Then we're ready to go!"

Bai Yan heard the words and looked at the stone in front of him.

The army of Qin of Changpingjun, Changwenjun, Xianyang, and Wang Ben, the number of troops of Chu, and the camp of Qianzhong led by Mengwu of Qianzhong County

Looking back on what they heard in Yangxia City in the past two days, it seems that Xiang Yan, Jing Qi and others seemed to want to catch him when they learned that he was going south, and thought of their little uncle in Shouchun

"General, where are we going?"

When he heard Bai Yan's words, he was a little puzzled.

"Shouchun!"

Bai Yan said.

He nodded, but before he could react, after thinking that Shouchun was the city, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Bai Yan with a dull expression, wondering if he had heard it wrong.
