Chapter 3: You're Looking for Me
The history books are very thick, but there are not many that involve the Qin State, and only a few dozen pages cover the Warring States Period.
"It is now the beginning of the seventh year of the reign of King Qin, according to the records in the history books, LΓΌ Buwei will attack the six kingdoms of Shandong this year in order to avenge the attack on Qin by the five countries, and the first to deal with it is the initiator of Zhao State, first sent Meng Yu and Zhang Tang to supervise 50,000 troops to attack Zhao, and three days later ordered Chang'an Jun Cheng Cheng to lead 50,000 troops with Fan Yu to lead 50,000 troops as a successor, and then Fan Yu instigated Cheng Cheng to rebel......
After reading this period of history, Zhao Jia couldn't help but mutter: "It is worthy of the Warring States Era, and fighting a war is diligence." β
But think about it.
His former crown prince of Zhao who went to Qin seems to have become an ornament, no one cares at all, and the two countries obviously will not change any decisions because of his existence, and they still have to fight.
In these years, covenants, promises, etc. are all bullshit, not to mention superficial work, and the face is gone.
"This is the best, there are still ten years before Qin annihilates the Six Kingdoms, Yingzheng has not yet been crowned and in power, and Qin is also in chaos, so you can fish in troubled waters...... I just don't know what is recorded in the history books, whether this world will happen, I hope it won't be too far away. β
Zhao Jia, whose consciousness was in the library, muttered to himself.
At this moment, his heart was much more settled.
Although the library in front of him could not provide him with substantial combat power, as the old saying goes, knowledge is power, and the essence of the earth's five thousand years of culture in front of him is enough for him to have the confidence to go on in this troubled era.
It's a pity that I have to read them one by one...... Zhao Jia looked at the sea of books in front of him, sighed lightly, raised his hand and beckoned a few books about the Warring States Period, ready to continue to make up for it.
Perhaps because of his consciousness, Zhao Jia didn't feel bored and sleepy at all, but watched it with relish, and at the same time found that the Warring States era was quite interesting, full of talents.
For example, the State of Wei, a good hand of cards to play is sparse, which can be called the talent training base of the State of Qin.
The state of Chu is also very interesting, the most well-known story is to carve a boat for a sword, the same story is also a microcosm of the state of Chu, so self-contained, not enterprising, lagging behind the times, when the countries are reforming, it has been standing still.
But for more than 800 years, when it sees batches of old opponents either disappear in ashes, or change dynasties, and only itself is still standing, will it feel like a failure?
No.
The state of Chu is an extremely resilient country.
When the Chu State was founded, the road was blue to enlighten the mountains and forests.
When the state of Chu was strong, it crossed the river and controlled Huaisi.
When the state of Chu was weakened, although Chu had three households, the death of Qin would be Chu.
β¦β¦
Just when Zhao Jia was immersed in the long river of history, Luo Jiang, who was keeping vigil outside, suddenly opened his eyes, a pair of sharp eyes looked at the dense forest in the distance through the bronze mask, and the palm of his hand couldn't help but hold the sword at his waist.
If he hadn't had it, he wouldn't be alive now.
At present, there seemed to be no change around him, but an indescribable feeling came to his heart, as if he was surrounded by wolves, and he had goosebumps.
"Martial law!"
Luo Jiang glanced at Zhao Jia, who was "resting" by the fire, and snorted.
The moment the words fell, the soldiers who were resting around also opened their eyes in an instant and got up quickly.
"Whew!"
Almost at the same time, dozens of arrows shot out of the darkness, the sound of breaking the air was piercing, and the few people in the front were directly pierced through the stomach by the arrows before they could react, turning into hedgehogs, blood flowed out of the wound, and a faint smell of blood spread.
"Protect Childe!"
Luo Jiang shouted angrily, pulled out the sword at his waist, swung his sword to cut off a few flying arrows, and at the same time commanded the soldiers who reacted to form a military formation to meet the enemy.
βοΌοΌβ
At this moment, Zhao Jia also opened his eyes, and what he saw was the cruel picture in front of him, the person who was alive before had fallen in a pool of blood at the moment, turning into several hot corpses, which made him breathe a little suffocated, and his heartbeat was a few beats slower.
Dead!
Who's going to kill me?!
Zhao Jia instinctively asked himself in his heart, and several portraits of figures instantly appeared in his mind.
After the glamorous stepmother advocated it, Xiangguo Guo Kai, and his cheap brother Zhao Qian...... The people who want to kill the original owner the most are none other than these three people, among whom the Empress and Guo Kai are the most likely.
!
This was Zhao Jia's next thought.
"Brush!"
At the same moment, more than a dozen black shadows jumped out of the dense forest in the distance.
Under the moonlight, the night clothes highlighted their capable figures, the long sword in their hands flashed with a cold cold glow, their eyes looked at Zhao Jia and the others indifferently, there was no nonsense, and the killing intent rose and killed Zhao Jia and the others, and the speed of the explosion in that moment was a little terrifying, and the distance of 100 meters was only a few breaths.
The fight began.
Without the slightest warning, the two sides were in a fight.
The group of people in front of them are obviously specialized in this business, all of them are professional killers, one by one with ruthless swordsmanship, with tacit understanding, they are also at ease in the face of dozens of elites of Zhao State, and they soon gained the upper hand, killed several guards who stood in front, and tore a hole in the general formation.
Seeing this, Luo Jiang could only step forward with his sword and plug the gap, and at the same time shouted angrily, swung his sword and slashed towards the enemy, relying on his blood, he was not afraid of death to block the enemy's sword edge, and he actually blocked the killer's attack for a while.
Zhao Jia has calmed down for a while, since he is in this era and has inherited everything from the original owner, he has to get used to this kind of picture.
Isn't it just assassination?
It's always a habit to go through it a few more times.
Get used to a fart...... Zhao Jia experienced this kind of thing for the first time, it was impossible to say that he was not confused, he suddenly took a deep breath of cold air mixed with the smell of blood, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and looked at Luo Jiang's face flushed desperately, his eyes flashed slightly, according to the memory of the original owner, this should be a kind of martial arts in the army, different from his practice method of biased towards internal strength, the martial arts in the army are biased towards external strength, pay attention to strength, and pursue explosive power and staying power.
The people in the army will shout when they practice, relying on their voices to shake their qi and blood, and to boil their bodies in a unique way.
As for medicated baths or something, it's not something ordinary people can afford to play at all.
The only one who dared to play like this among the Seven Kingdoms was Wei Wushu of Wei State, which also made Wei State the overlord of the Seven Kingdoms for a period of time, and he could do whatever he wanted.
It's a pity that after a long time, Wei Guo can't afford to play.
Now.
From the perspective of the original owner, Luo Jiang's strength can only be regarded as average.
As for this gang of assassins, it seems... It's also very average.
"Bell!"
Luo Jiang held his sword to block, and there was already a decisive look in his eyes, even if he died today, he couldn't let this group of killers hurt his son in the slightest.
The assassin in front of him seemed to sense Luo Jiang's emotions, and there was a hint of mockery in his eyes.
Luo Jiang and the others have done their best, but they have not yet used their full strength, for them, the group of prey in front of them is just meat sent to their mouths, and eating it without casualties is the perfect completion of the task.
For the killer, the identity, status, and wealth of the target are not important.
Because no matter how noble his status is, he only has one life.
If you die, you die.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the location of his target.
"What about people?!"
The killer suddenly found that the target standing in the middle of the crowd was gone, and before he could look for it, a gentle and elegant voice sounded in his ears: "Are you looking for me?" β
