015 Shocking news
The sun was shining in the sky, and the people and horses on the ground were galloping. Although both men and horses were tired and sweating, the people of Jiangshan were still riding horses and galloping. Because he was more anxious in his heart, he was like this, no matter what the weather was, he just wanted to run to Yan Country as soon as possible, so that he could help the master retrieve the Xuantie Ruthless Sword as soon as possible, so that he could return to the master as soon as possible.
"Young master, now that we have arrived at Hangu Pass, we are about to leave the Qin Kingdom, why don't we stop and rest?" Because of the non-stop running for several days, the four servants all felt physically and mentally exhausted, so someone couldn't help but ask carefully.
"Oh, it seems that everyone is exhausted, so let's stop and rest!" It was only at this time that Jiang Shan felt that they had galloped more than two hundred miles after breakfast, so he agreed to the request of the four servants.
After getting Jiangshan's consent, a group of five people found a simple tea shed on the side of the road to rest, and at the same time arranged for the shopkeeper to feed the horses. After Jiang Shan explained some trivial matters, he sat down and took the tea and drank it all. He has no intention of tasting tea, and recently he has always felt that something is wrong, but he can't figure it out for a while. So he drank tea and pondered: "Master is a man who is good at planning, if he must have a Xuantie Ruthless Sword, why doesn't he wait until the sword is cast before setting off? If he waits until he retrieves the sword before stabbing it, then the Yan Kingdom will not perish long ago? Besides, how should I use the sword when I get it? Can I bring it into the palace? In this case, there is no need for the Xuantie Ruthless Sword at all, so why does Master want me to take it? Could it be that Master doesn't want me to take risks in order to break me away?" For many days, the country has been bumping around immediately, so he didn't figure out a clue, but now that he calmed down and thought about it, he suddenly understood Master's intentions.
"Hurry up and pack up, we have to go back to Qin State immediately!" After Jiang Shan figured out the cause and effect of the matter, where did he still have the leisure to drink tea, he immediately anxiously faced the four servants who were leisurely sipping fragrant tea and ordered.
The four servants were baffled by the sudden change in the country for a while, and they didn't know what happened to Lu Dao, but because they had always been very convinced of the country, they didn't ask much, and they immediately did it at that time.
They were in a very hurry when they left Xianyang, and they were even more hurried to go back at this time. Jiang Shan's whip was always pumping, and the horse that had just been changed was quickly torn apart by his beating. The four servants didn't have time to ask him the reason for the matter, but seeing Jiang Shan rushing so frantically, he thought that he must have encountered something urgent, so he had to chase after him tightly. The pedestrians on the road saw these outlaws running wildly on the road, and no one dared to cause trouble, so they all hid far away, lest they provoke their mildew. Of course, this is also in line with their intentions, and the unblocked road is just convenient for them to hurry.
Although the people were able to make way for them, it did not mean that they would have smooth sailing. This gallop soon attracted the attention of the local authorities, and at first the horses chased after them, followed by the summons of the pigeons. But neither of these things worked, the speed of the rivers and mountains was too fast, and they couldn't catch up no matter what, and the people of the Qin State simply let go of the wolf smoke. Together, the officers and soldiers of the Qin State quickly got the information, so they closely guarded the key roads at various checkpoints. Now that they can't control so much, since they are here to kill people, how can they worry that their hands will be stained with blood? Therefore, as long as they encounter a slight resistance in the future Mercedes-Benz, they will let go of their hands and feet and start killing.
In this way, they killed people all the way and changed horses all the way, but the speed was faster, because the war horses of the Qin State were indeed good horses galloping across the field, and killing people and robbing horses were done in one go, which saved a lot of effort. At this time, Jiang Shan was a little puzzled in his heart, he really didn't know if they were blocking themselves, or were they sending horses to themselves? Sending such a few people with low martial arts skills to guard the checkpoint was really helping him. But where do they know the Tao of the country, in fact, the wolf smoke of the Qin State represents the urgency of things by the number of columns. The five of them ran wildly on the main road, and at first they didn't attract the attention of the people of the Qin State at all, they thought it was just a small matter that disturbed social order, so they just sent a few local officials to check it out. But then it was different, the people of Qin saw that they could not stop them from galloping, so they increased the number of pillars of wolf smoke, which also increased the number of soldiers.
Jiang Shan broke through dozens of checkpoints in a row, and found that there were more and more Qin soldiers intercepted, and his skills were getting stronger and stronger, so he realized that Lu Dao had misestimated this time. He originally thought that killing people would divert the attention of the people of the Qin State, but how could he have thought that killing people would delay the matter? What should he do now? He couldn't just kill all the way to Xianyang, even if they didn't eat or drink, they wouldn't be able to kill the people of the Qin State! Since the goal of diverting the attention of the people of the Qin State had been achieved, it was better to disguise himself and travel westward.
What Jiangshan decided would never be delayed, so they took the opportunity to gallop along the path. After changing his clothes and horses over a small market town, he took the road and continued westward. They didn't want to cause trouble, but they had nothing to do, so they walked west for three more days before they reached the outside of Xianyang, but unfortunately they were still one step too late and could not enter the city after all. Jiang Shan and several of them were very angry, but there was no way, and now they didn't know the situation of Master Lu Dao, so they didn't dare to cause trouble anymore. In desperation, they had to find a fairly clean inn outside the city to rest, so as to wait for the next morning to enter the city.
It was dinner time, and it happened that they were already hungry due to the rush for several days, so they found a random seat to sit down to eat. The bodies of the five people were very strong, and after a binge meal, they immediately regained their strength. They were usually nosy men, and although they did not dare to make trouble at this time, their eyes and ears were always idle, so after eating, they looked around to inquire. After a while, some of them heard the news, only to hear someone wondering: "It's strange today, why are all the people in this store crying and sad?"
"Aren't they? Some of the five immediately agreed.
"That's right, I think they must be dead, or why don't they all cry and mourn?" As soon as the previous man finished speaking, someone among the five immediately chimed in.
The space in the store is not very large, and it should have been noisy with so many people pouring in at once, but it was very quiet on this day, so Jiangshan's small muttering was immediately heard by many people. At that time, many people were angry, and some people shouted: "What are you shameless people talking nonsense here? Do you know that we are more sad now than dead Lao Tzu!"
When everyone heard this, they were very curious, where in the world is there anything more sad than the dead Lao Tzu? So someone asked, "What is it that makes you so sad?" I wonder if you can tell us a thing or two, maybe we can help you share some of your troubles, right?"
As soon as those people heard that they didn't know the truth of what happened to the Dao, the anger in their hearts disappeared a little, and someone immediately said: "Since you don't know what happened in the Dao, let's forgive you, do you know that Mr. Jing Ke, the hero we admire the most, was killed by the King of Qin this morning! The reason why we are sad is because of ......?"
When Jiang Shan and the others heard this, they were anxious, where could they allow him to finish speaking, they rushed forward and surrounded the man and shouted: "What are you talking about? You dare to say that my master is dead?"
Where had the man ever seen such an angry person, and he was so frightened that he couldn't speak. But the more he couldn't speak, the more anxious they became, and the more anxious they were, the louder they shouted at him. The other crowd saw that they had pushed the man so urgently, and they all stepped forward to relieve the siege. At that moment, someone said: "A few young heroes, please don't worry, since he is so excited that he can't speak now, then the old man will tell you!"
As soon as they heard this, they immediately let the man go, and turned to face the old man. I only heard the old man say: "Dare to ask a few of Mr. Jing Ke's beloved disciples and entourage?"
Jiang Shan thought to himself that this person was too cautious, if we weren't close to someone, would we be so excited? But thinking that since people were for safety, they had to say it truthfully.
As soon as the people heard their identities, they immediately gathered around them and comforted them in unison. What Jiang Shan wanted to know most in his heart was the cause of his master's death, but these people comforted him with his mother-in-law, he really wanted to get angry, but considering that people were also kind, he finally endured it. Jiang Shan Zhilu said that only if he calms down first, others can calm down, so he stopped sad and said calmly: "Thank you for your love for our master and apprentice, now that my master has passed away, then his future affairs must be handled by me." Now, can you please tell me what happened?"
As soon as everyone heard the reason, they all stopped talking and recommended the old man to speak to Jiangshan. I saw that the old man first mourned silently for a while, shed two lines of tears, and then said slowly: "We just saw Jing Daxia's head in the morning, and no one can say the details." ”
Jiang Shan couldn't help but be annoyed when he heard this, thinking to himself that you don't know the details of the Dao, how can you conclude that my master has passed away?
I only heard the old man say slowly after resting: "Actually, we people were still Jing Daxia's enemies before this morning. Jiang Shaoxia may have already known that we are the ones who will restore the kingdom and destroy the Qin Alliance, and our purpose is to prevent anyone who has dealings with the Qin state. Of course, we can't let Yan surrender to Qin anymore, so we will intercept you along the way. Later, we landed at the Ping'an Inn, and we never followed in your footsteps. ”
When Han Feng heard that they had been Jing Ke's enemies and had wanted to intercept them, he couldn't help but say angrily in his heart: "You people still want to be our enemies, aren't you asking for hardship?
When Jiang Shan heard this, he hurriedly stopped him from continuing, but the old man thought that what he said was indeed reasonable. I heard him say again: "Where are we qualified to be Jing Daxia's enemies? Even a few of you, we don't have the ability to deal with it! After we woke up that day, we understood that it must be Jing Daxia's subordinates who showed mercy. But where the mission lies, and you must do it even if you know that you can't do it! Where do you think about your own safety?"
When everyone heard what he said, no one interrupted him. But because of his age, the old man couldn't keep talking even if no one interrupted him. I saw him rest again before he said: "Later, we chased you all the way behind, and when we heard that you had an accident at the Death Cliff, we were really happy in our hearts at that time. Now that I think about it, we are really not as good as pigs and dogs!" The old man was indeed emotional, and saw him slap himself twice as he spoke.
Seeing this, Jiang Shan hurriedly stopped his self-blame and said with relief: "Isn't it strange for those who don't know?
"Xie Lu, Xie Jiang, Shaoxia, you are really a magnanimous and benevolent gentleman!" the old man bowed to Jiang Shan as he spoke.
"Uncle doesn't need to be polite, the person who should be thanked should be you, you are so emotional for my master, why don't you move us?" Jiang Shan also bowed as he spoke.
"I said you two don't want to be so mother-in-law, okay? The most important thing for us now is to get Jing Daxia's head back!"
"Yes, it does. It's all my fault for delaying everyone's time, please forgive me for my mistakes!" the old man blamed himself again, and bent down again as he spoke.
Seeing this, Jiang Shan hurriedly stopped him again and said, "No one blames you, please continue!"
"Yes! Yes! Yes! I listened to Jiang Shaoxia! I don't blame myself anymore!" he said and saluted Jiang Shan again before continuing, "After we came to Xianyang, you have been here for many days. We can't find your whereabouts, and we can't know your intentions. Then we had to do things according to our own wishes, and then our eldest brother Zhang Liang Zhang came up with a good idea, that is, we found an opportunity to sneak into the palace and assassinate the King of Qin first, if it didn't work, we could also blame you. ”
Thunder could no longer suppress the fire, grabbed the old man by the collar and lifted him up, and asked angrily, "How did you blame our master? Aren't you afraid that I will throw you to death?"
This time there was a sudden chaos, and many people in the store drew their swords one after another, and they were about to fight bloodily.
"Stop, stop!" cried the old man, not caring about his exhaustion. The old man saw that his words were useless, so he turned to the country and said, "If I can follow Jing Daxia, I will die and be blind." I just hope that Jiang Shaoxia can stop this scuffle and not let our sharp blades take the lives of our own brothers. That can only make the people of Qin happy, and we ourselves will suffer. ”
Jiang Shan saw that he was sincere, and besides, the master didn't necessarily lose his life because of their misfortune. He quickly ordered Thunder to put the old man down. When they saw that the old man had regained his freedom, they all put away their swords.
After the old man landed, he was naturally grateful to the country. Jiang Shan hurriedly stopped him again and said, "Don't be polite, please tell us the truth about the time now!"
"Naturally, that's natural!" the old man repeated several times before he said again, "We sent several masters at that time, and it was not easy for us to sneak into the palace. The palace is really big, about the size of several miles. Our men searched for half the night to find the residence of the King of Qin, who had not yet slept. I don't know if Lu Dao doesn't sleep so late, what kind of shady deed is King Qin doing. Our talent didn't care about him, so we took advantage of the fact that King Qin was not paying attention to find an opportunity to be a killer. But who knows where King Qin seems to have grown I don't know how many eyes, but he actually found out. What I didn't expect was that King Qin was also a person with strong martial arts, and we launched many attacks without success. Then the guards in the palace were alarmed, and we had to retreat quickly, and as we were leaving, we grabbed a few weapons and threw down our weapons. ”
Jiang Shan couldn't help but be curious when he heard this, so he interjected: "What is the reason why you exchanged weapons with the people of the Qin State?
"Of course! Of course! I will definitely say it! The young man does not know that we have already engraved the word "Yan" on our weapons. We did that to tell the King of Qin that the Yan people were here to assassinate you, and we couldn't trust them. If the king of Qin did not believe in the Yan people, he would not accept the surrender of the Yan people. If the Yan people can't surrender, they will go with us to fight against Qin. In that way, our strength will increase, and only when our strength grows will we have the ability to resist Qin. The old man still said slowly.
Jiang Shan pondered for a long time when he heard this, and then said coldly: "In this way, it seems that my master's death has something to do with you. ”
