After being placed under house arrest, Zheng Hao and Yu Wenxian cautiously tried it. But to their surprise, a villa in Luoda had only seen two people. One is Qiu Moshan, who caught himself, and the other is the old man who takes care of his own life.

Originally, I wanted to get some information from the old man. In the next few days of getting along, the two helplessly found that the old man was deaf and dumb, and he couldn't read.

At first, the two suspected that this old man was sent by Qiu Moshan to spy on them. But no matter where he went, or even secretly hid, the old man didn't seem to be aware of it. He just lives his life very regularly, going to bed on time, getting up on time to cook, and delivering food.

The two of them sat on the grass outside, watching the old man sweeping the courtyard as if no one was around. Zheng Hao held his chin and said to Yu Wenxian: "Why is there no garden in the entire manor? In addition to the elusive Qiu Moshan, there is only one old man." Are you really not afraid that we will run away?"

Yu Wenxian turned his head, looked at the five-meter-high wall behind him, and said calmly: "I think we can't escape." Or maybe they think that even if we escape, they are confident that they can chase us back. ”

Zheng Hao raised his head and thought for a moment, and continued: "We don't know anything about this place now, and we don't know anything about what is outside the wall. And if, as you say, they think that even if we escape, we can recover it, it must have done something to us to find our place. But ......"

As he spoke, Zheng Hao carefully checked his whole body, and said a little depressedly: "If this is good in the 21st century, if you install a transmitter or something for us, you can find us at any time, but how can there be this kind of technology now." And there's nothing strange about the whole body......"

Yu Wenxian was silent for a moment, and then focused his eyes on the old man not far away and talked to Zheng Hao: "There are too many things that we don't know, first of all, where are we? Finally, after the old man had brought us food every day, he would bring it to the room to the east, who lived there and why we had never seen him. ”

After listening to this, Zheng Hao broke a branch from the tree next to him, and said seriously while drawing: "If you want to say the location, I may know." Earlier you said we were in the carriage for three days. Assuming that the speed of the carriage is 20 kilometers per hour, excluding the rest time, it can travel 200 kilometers per day at its limit. If we take the position where we were taken captive at that time as the center of the circle, excluding the area of return to the other side of the river, we can count the possibility of a roundabout advance. Our position should be within a fan of about 500 to 600 kilometers from the center of the circle. ”

Zheng Hao stuck the branch straight on the ground and observed the shadow of the branch in the sun. Then he took a deep breath hard. Gently erase most areas of the fan. Then he continued to explain to Yuwen Xian: "From the perspective of latitude and longitude, the position of the sun in the sky at noon time can roughly exclude these two low-latitude places. Then it's autumn, but the temperature is significantly cooler, and the humidity in the air is higher. Combined with the above inference, our approximate location should be in the mountains near Taiyuan. ”

Yuwen Yan was stunned to see Zheng Hao's series of divine operations, he fixed his eyes on the place of "Taiyuan" in Zheng Hao's mouth, and said in a deep voice: "You mean 'merge state', what did you just do, do you know how to calculate?"

Zheng Hao threw away the branch, enjoying the rare feeling of pretending to be successful, and continued: "What calculus is not calculated. It's called science. Besides, I don't think they wanted to kill us anytime soon, since they went to great lengths to get us here. So the other party should not be the one who wants your life. Since I don't kill you, I must want to get something from you, I have calculated that the most valuable thing in you is your identity as the last emperor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. ”

Zheng Hao paused and said solemnly: "In other words, the other party is ready to use you to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes." ”

After listening to Zheng Hao's words, Yuwen suddenly smiled happily: "Your analysis is very reasonable, but we still don't know what the other party thinks." But we should be safe until the showdown between the other side and us. It seems that now we are holding the first hand......"

............

After dinner, the two took advantage of the old man to deliver food. The two of them secretly took out the rope they had stolen from the storeroom. With the help of ropes, the two climbed the high wall as they wished.

A gust of wind blew, and the scenery outside the wall made the faces of the two of them change. Looking down, beyond the walls is a bottomless abyss. Beyond the abyss is a forest as far as the eye can see. The width of the middle is more than ten meters, and it is absolutely impossible to jump with ordinary human manpower. The only exit from the boxy manor is the drawbridge at the gate that connects to the outside world, but at the other end of the drawbridge, a few lit wooden houses clearly indicate that guards are guarding.

"Damn, no wonder there isn't even a guard in the manor, it's not afraid that we will escape over the wall. Zheng Hao scolded and said.

Just as the two of them were deep in thought, a woman's voice came from behind: "It's dangerous up there, come down quickly." A lot of people died when this villa was built. ”

The two of them moved in their hearts and turned around tacitly. A graceful and luxurious adult * girl appeared in front of the two of them.

The other party smiled lightly, gave a slight salute and said calmly: "It's windy outside, follow me into the house." ”

The two followed the woman to her room, and after the two faced each other, Qiu Moshan took the wine and the glass and retired. The woman elegantly poured wine for herself and Yuwen, raised the wine glass slightly, and took a sip gently.

Seeing that Yu Wenxian didn't mean to drink, she didn't care. Putting the wine glass back on the table, he said, "I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm Liying, the owner of this manor." ”

Yu Wenxian picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a sip. The spicy taste instantly filled the nasal cavity, and the throat felt like it was burning. Zheng Hao, who couldn't reach it, was choked and coughed.

Looking at Zheng Hao's reaction, Li Ying chuckled and said, "This is the wine I brewed myself, it is very strong, how can you drink it like this." ”

After Zheng Hao finished coughing, Yuwen Yan said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Then you are the 'giant' in Qiu Moshan's mouth." ”

Li Ying nodded, picked up the flask and poured a new glass of wine for Yuwen.

Looking at the wine glass that was filled again, Yu Wenxian didn't drink it again, cleared his throat slightly, and asked directly: "Then what do you want me to do." ”

Li Ying's eyes flashed, and she did not answer Yuwen Yan's question positively: "We who were once prosperous, after the decline of the Qin State, Xiangli Qinzhimo is also regarded as the remnant of the Qin State, because the power we can bring makes everyone in power extremely jealous." For the long years that followed, we were hunted down in a frenzied and endless manner. With the continuous change of the times, our Qinzhimo has gradually faded out of the world's vision, but the remaining people have not given up their yearning for ideals and blood feuds of the same race, and we firmly believe that there will be a day when we can take revenge and realize our ideals. ”

In the interval between Li Ying's words, Yu Wenxian couldn't help but interject: "Then have you found someone who can help you realize your ideals now?"

Li Ying covered her mouth and smiled, neither affirming nor denying.

Yu Wenxian looked at Li Ying's expression, and asked reluctantly, "Then are you helping Yang Jian do things?"

Li Ying raised the wine glass in front of her and drank it down, still smiling and said, "I'm just here to say hello today and tell you one thing by the way." ”

Li Ying's two jade-like fingers were gently forced, and the silver wine glass in her hand was instantly twisted into a ball. She elegantly put the "wine glass" back on the table, and said lightly: "If you run away, I will be very troubled." So please don't do anything stupid, and if you dare to run away next time, I'll break your legs. ”......

Qiu Moshan, who had been waiting outside for a long time, returned to Liying after sending away the lost and depressed Yuwen Xian. He respectfully asked, "Teacher, why don't you kill them?" ”

Li Ying looked at the "wine glass" that kept spinning at her fingertips, and said leisurely: "He is an insurance in my hand." In addition......" Li Ying seemed to think of something and laughed: "This little emperor who has not dried up is very bad." ”

......

The two of them returned to their rooms in a reluctant, cautiously confirming that no one was watching. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he laughed softly. Yu Wenyan talked to Zheng Hao in his heart: "It's successful, let's move on to the next step." ”
