Chapter 510: Fugitives from the Qin State
Along the way, the farther west you go, the poorer the state capitals become, and the people face the loess with their backs to the sky, in fact, it is no wonder that the parents and officials of these state capitals do not act.
In the past two years, all kinds of new policies implemented by Daji will come first close to the state capitals around the capital of Daji, close to the side of Qin, due to the long distance, the new policies are often delayed for several months, or even a year and a half.
This time and again, the time for development has begun.
Of course, it will get better and better in the future.
"Today we are going to talk about the ...... of organ transplantation in the human body"
In the carriage, Chen Chao held a glass of water, talked endlessly, and drank a sip of water to moisten his throat when his mouth was dry. Jiang Linglong, who was on the other side, quickly took the note, sometimes nodding and sometimes frowning, as if she understood or not.
Along the way, Chen Chao was telling Jiang Linglong all kinds of knowledge about biology.
Jiang Linglong didn't care much at first, thinking that Chen Chao was making up nonsense and talking nonsense, but as time went by, Jiang Linglong found that what Chen Chao said could be justified and form a complete set of doctrines.
She was shocked.
"Can the human body still have an organ transplant? Head and head swapped?" As a student with an infinite thirst for knowledge, Jiang Linglong asked questions at the right time.
"Of course organs can be transplanted. It's just that the brain probably can't, because it's too complicated and involves all kinds of blood vessels and nerves, and the current level is definitely not good. Chen Chao replied.
Don't say that it can't be done now, even in the previous life, the medical treatment was highly developed, and I haven't heard of swapping heads.
Chen Chao has already made up his mind, since Jiang Linglong likes research, he might as well train her to become a medical student, so that he can give a glimmer of hope to the current extremely backward society in medical treatment, and the burden of raising the average age of mankind is on Jiang Linglong's shoulders.
"Fish! Fish! β
The coachman who was driving outside reined in the reins, and the carriage stopped suddenly, and his voice sounded a little anxious:
"Xiangye, come out and have a look."
The three people in the car looked at each other and had a bad premonition.
Chen Chao lifted the curtain, poked his head out, and after looking at it, he got out of the carriage.
In the distance, you can already see an extremely majestic Xiongguan, built at the exit of a valley road, flanked by lofty mountains.
If it is not expected, it is the Hangu Pass of the Qin State.
Everyone in the convoy stopped, stopped and stood, not all looking at the Hangu Xiongguan, but the movement in the area in front of the pass, which attracted everyone's attention.
"Xiangye, what are you doing?"
Ning Baizhi stretched out her finger and asked, frowning.
She clearly saw that on the plain in the distance, the sand and dust were rolling up, as if there was a movement of thousands of horses galloping.
In front of the sand and dust were hundreds of ordinary people running forward.
They were ragged and unkempt, and most of them dragged their families with their luggage.
As they ran, they looked back in a panic, as if a fierce insect was chasing them.
Chen Chaozheng looked carefully, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded on the side, and he heard Ning Baizhi's slightly surprised voice, "Xiangye, it's Hou Ji." β
Chen Chao and Jiang Linglong beside him turned their heads to look together, and found that Hou Ji, who had been waiting here for a long time, approached with a dragon guard, disguised as an ordinary martial artist on horseback, and each of them carried a flintlock pistol wrapped in a cowhide cloth behind them.
"Phewβ"
Approaching, Hou Ji grabbed the reins, jumped off the horse excitedly, knelt down on one knee and hugged his fists:
"See Xiangye!"
"When did you arrive?"
"It's been more than half a month."
Unlike the Chen Dynasty and his party who set off from the capital, the road is far away, Hou Ji and Long Wuwei were trained in Yunzhou before, and they have arrived here for more than half a month, just waiting for the Chen Dynasty and his party to arrive, and the two sides converge.
After a few words of greeting with Hou Ji, Chen Chao pointed to the sand and dust rolled up in front of Hangu Pass, and asked Hou Ji what was going on with the hundreds of fleeing people, Hou Ji has been here for half a month, and he probably knows some inside story.
The gun belt on Hugilara's body, pointing ahead, said:
"Those people are the people of Qin who fled."
"Ahead is Hangu Pass, Xiangye doesn't know, every year, the people of Qin State can't stand the heavy conscription of Qin State, so they flee to the territory of my Daji."
"Those people escaped from the mountain path, and the Qin soldiers stationed at Hangu Pass were responsible for arresting them back......"
Saying this, Chen Chao nodded and understood.
"Big guy, hurry up, the front is Daji, and we will have a way to live if we go to Daji......"
"Third uncle, hurry up, don't pick up your luggage......"
"Hold the child well, hold on a little longer, and you'll be ...... in no time"
"Quick, quick! It's almost there! β
The fleeing people of the Qin State supported each other and ran forward, they had already seen the boundary monument in front of them, as long as they passed, they could live.
In the rear was the cavalry of the Qin State who found them fleeing and chased them out of Hangu Pass, and the centurion led by him waved his whip, and the sound of angry shouts sounded one after another:
"Stop for Lao Tzu, take another step forward, and there will be no mercy!"
"You are Qin Min, and it is a capital crime to flee without permission!"
"Stop, stop!"
Seeing that the people of Qin who fled in front of him turned a deaf ear to his words, and ran faster and faster, the centurion of Qin who led the hundred horsemen in pursuit was full of anger.
He took off his longbow, took aim with his bow, and the cold arrow burst out with a "boom", and accurately shot the last old man's vest with inconvenient legs.
The old man fell in response and was soon trampled into a pulp by the horse's hooves.
The rest of the soldiers did not dare to disobey the orders of their superiors, so they took aim with their bows, and several more fell in response, falling in the last few steps.
Seeing this scene, Chen Chao frowned slightly, and said in a condensed voice:
"Get on the horse!"
After a while, Chen Chao took the well-trained Long Wuwei on the horse.
Crossing the convoy, we soon came to the border marker between the two countries.
The east side of the boundary monument is written Daji, and the west side of the boundary monument is written the state of Qin, which is the dividing line stipulated on the bright side of the two countries.
The people of the Qin State who fled to the territory of Daji in front of them were less than a hundred steps away from here, and their eyes showed infinite longing, but the companions and family members around them fell one after another, and the team of hundreds of people was now less than thirty or forty.
The Qin cavalry bows and arrows were extremely accurate, and every time they shot an arrow with a bow, a Qin citizen would fall.
"Xiangye, they are hopeless."
"If you don't do it here, you'll be shot and killed."
Hou Ji calmly analyzed the situation, how could the people of Qin who fled outrun on two legs and four legs?
As he spoke, seven or eight more people were shot and fell to the ground, crying for their lives.
Hou Ji unloaded the flintlock pistol behind his back, held it in his hand, looked at Chen Chao with his eyes, and asked, "Or, will your subordinates lead the team to the rescue?" β
Chen Chao shook his head and looked at the boundary monument beside him:
"One step forward is the Qin Realm! We can't cross the border to save people! β
"How much they can live depends on their own creation......
At this moment, dozens of horsemen suddenly rushed out from behind, and in the blink of an eye, they crossed the border between the two countries, and the people who fled raised their heads and saw the soldiers who were coming towards them wearing the armor of the Qin State, and their hearts fell to the bottom for a while.
Puff puff puff!
A series of kneeling sounds sounded, and the remaining people of the Qin State had gloomy faces and waited quietly to be killed.
"Stop shooting! Stop shooting! β
"I am the Qin general Mengwu!"
