Chapter 116: Mo Zhe Three
Yuan Jiawen raised his thumb, stretched out his middle finger and clasped it on his wrist, ready to draw out his dagger at all times. He didn't know the rules in the palace, so he asked Ruan Linzhou with his eyes.
Ruan Linzhou couldn't sleep because of the noise from Chen Chrome all night, and his head was dizzy. Although he joined the Mohist school, he had never done anything like fleeing an assassin in a fortified palace. Chiyou knife.
Fortunately, Chen Chrome had already wrapped the knife with a black cloth, but how to explain this?
The guards asked with their eyes, and the leader of the guards raised his chin, and everyone walked forward with their swords in their hands. With a sound of "Zheng", they drew their swords out of their sheaths, ready to start a battle.
Unexpectedly, Chen Rue exhaled suddenly, and directly took off the long stick-style Chi You knife on his back, hugged the whole thing in his arms, and said, "It's better not to touch it, it's something used to raise Gu, it's filthy."
After finishing speaking, he lifted the strip of cloth, revealing half of the dried salted fish that gave off a stench, rotten enough to produce maggots.
The guards took a step back when they smelled the stench.
Taking a closer look, Chen He suddenly raised his head, and the bamboo hat fell on the ground, revealing his short hair.The young man has fair skin and delicate features, like a Miao Jiang great witch, Qing girl, who is in the limelight.
The leader of the guards thought about it, said "offended", and led the people away.
Finally walking out of the palace gate, Chen Ge quickly threw away the dried salted fish, wiped the tip of the knife repeatedly, and muttered to himself to apologize to God Bingzu.
Yuan Jiawen burst into tears with laughter, stretched out two fingers, only to hold the dried fish and check it repeatedly, and asked: "Where did you get it? My God, this fish is so smelly, you didn't see the expressions on their faces at that time. Raising Gu to raise Gu, some people use salted fish to raise Gu."
Chen Chrome wiped the knife clean, tied it back behind his back, and said, "I just passed by the kitchen and picked it up in the trash can."
Yuan Jiawen was puzzled: "What kind of rule is this? I watched "Heroes", and the black-clothed killer went up to the palace with a sword to meet King Qin."
Chen Ru looked hopeless, curled his lips, and said, "Have you never heard the story of Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin? I saw that Jing Ke was chasing the King of Qin and running around the pillars, and the guards were not allowed to bring weapons to the palace. He could only yell 'Wang bears the sword, Wang bears the sword' from the side, and then Yingzheng remembered that he was carrying a sword on his back. Have you never seen this?"
Yuan Jiawen shook his head: "Historical novels? I've only read "The Overlord of Western Chu", and now it's like this, I guess I'll never see the ending, and I don't know what happened to Xiang Yu."
Ruan Linzhou sweated profusely from fright, and finally recovered, and said nervously: "Their reactions are very strange, I just noticed, Chen Ru, your eyebrows and eyes are very similar to that of Qing girl. She is from Miaojiang, Xuefeng Lin, I don't know the exact location, but it's very likely..."
Chen Ru understood: "We are all descendants of Chi You, but I don't know why, their obsession is so deep. Why do they do evil? Professor Ruan, have you asked her?"
Ruan Linzhou faintly felt that something was wrong, but the situation was urgent and it was not the time to analyze the problem carefully.He has been busy, untied his burden, and told the two of them: "Take off your bodyguard uniforms and put them away, they will be useful later. Here are two sets of ordinary clothes. Wear them and pretend to be ordinary people."
Chen Ru smiled wryly: "We are just ordinary people, how come we have so many adventures?"
Ruan Linzhou lifted Chen He who was sitting on the ground, and said as he walked, "I asked, but our time is 2000 years apart. Human beings have gone from barbarism to civilization. They can't even guarantee their own survival. How can they talk about sympathy? Three Views It's different, so I can't continue to communicate. And I have no status, only some super-level knowledge, and I don't have many opportunities to meet her."
The three of them changed their clothes, walked through the dense forest beside the wide road, and came to the crowded market.Among the verdant trees, a golden goose galloped silently in the wind, following closely behind everyone.
Qin's capital was originally in Liyang. During Xiaogong's time, Shang Yang presided over the construction of Xianyang City, and the capital was moved when it was completed.The city has a vast area, the entire city is square in shape, the streets are wide and straight, and the regions are clearly divided.Among them, the one with the largest area and the most majestic architecture is the Xianyang Palace where the kings of Qin lived in the past dynasties.
Around the palace, the walls of the palace city are nearly four to five feet wide at their widest point, and there are ditches and pipes buried under a large piece of flat land for drainage.There are no people within dozens of miles outside the palace wall, only a straight road, and the defenses are tight everywhere, and the forests on both sides are dense but there are hidden murderous intentions.Ordinary people can't get close at all.
Further away is Xianyang City, which is polarized with the Qin Palace.The buildings are all civil structures, with few deep foundations or solid high platforms. All the houses are flat, low and cramped.In the dwellings of the common people, there are four small towns in the east, west, north, and south.
Although Shang Yang died tragically for many years, the rule of law in the Qin State has been deeply rooted. The more powerful and wealthy businessmen live together, the more decent they are.Therefore, Ruan Linzhou led two unidentified "assassins", almost as soon as he entered Xianyang City, he headed towards the East City and rushed directly into a tavern in a busy city.
As soon as Chen Chrome saw the bustling place, he was very happy, like a wild dog running free.Fortunately, Yuan Jiawen was on the lead, otherwise he would have been abducted by some human trafficker.At this time, I saw the most story-telling tavern in martial arts novels, and I couldn't hold it back immediately, and rushed in excitedly. Of course, I was forced to retreat a few steps by the smell.
Chen Ru covered his nose and looked up. There was still a plaque nailed to the door of the tavern. The bluestone board was washed smooth by wind, frost, rain and snow, and the word "three yuan" was inscribed in it.
The whole house is two stories high and is purely made of bluestone. There are twenty or thirty small square tables on the first floor. No matter what they do, they all sit on the same table.Fish and dragons are mixed in the house, so the smell of sweat, goods, ingredients, fur, etc. are intertwined, and the hygienic conditions are worrying, which is really unbearable.
Ruan Linzhou probed his head and found an ordinary guy, asking him to take him to the backyard and show him some kind of woodcut token.
The man confirmed it was correct, and then nodded to the two butchers who were lazily lying half-lying under a big tree in the middle of the backyard holding a kitchen knife.The eyes of the two men were half-closed, and they waved their hands, indicating that they could pass.
After everyone left, the butcher suddenly opened his eyes and asked with a smile, "How does the roasted wild goose taste?"
Another butcher followed his gaze and caught a large golden goose gliding at low altitude, flying towards the courtyard.The butcher was calm and calm, and threw the kitchen knife at the right time, but he didn't expect the goose to be so alert, he dodged, only half of the wing was cut off by the blade, and the blood spilled, just covering the butcher's eyes.
The injured golden goose rolled to the ground and disappeared in an instant.
The butcher rubbed his stomach and sighed: "Everything is born, it's really not that everything can be eaten."
Chen Ru walked all the way, vaguely aware of some secret, and became more excited, his eyes were "bone-like" and kept rolling.
Entering the back kitchen, I just feel that the hotel kitchens in ancient and modern China and foreign countries do not seem to have changed much.The cooks were sweating profusely, stirring vigorously with large shovels, picking up a spoonful or two of vegetables, tasting the taste directly with their hands, shaking their heads, and throwing the vegetables back in the spoons.As for the helpers, after wiping the stove, they go to wipe the dishes. A rag can be passed down to three generations without washing.
Passing through the helpers who wash dishes, the girl who washes vegetables, the guy who cuts vegetables, and the chef who shakes spoons, it seems to have walked through a secular kaleidoscope.
Respectfully, Ruan Linzhou found one of the cooks who was grabbing vegetables from the cauldron.
The two whispered to each other, but the man showed embarrassment, and finally nodded reluctantly.He called Chen Chrome and Yuan Jiawen to his side, looked around, and said "please" to the chef.
Then I saw the fat-headed cook stretching his hand under a stove full of firewood to caress for a while.
"Click!"
There was a mechanical sound, and a secret mechanism was instantly opened.Before Chen Chrome could react, he felt the ground under his feet suddenly turned, and the three of them fell into a four-wheeled wooden cart full of thatch at the same time.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Ruan Linzhou took the wooden sign shown just now, and pressed it into a mechanism on the trolley with perfect precision.There was another "click", and the small wooden car slid down a winding underground passage that looked like railroad tracks, all the way down.
"Bang bang bang bang!" "Bang bang bang bang bang!"
After about four or five minutes, the two "crazy mine carts" stopped completely.
Chen Chrome was dizzy and climbed out of the small car with all hands and feet, only to find that he was tightly hugged by Yuan Jiawen.
The white ghost's palms were covered with sweat, and the other hand was holding the dagger, always on guard against any accidents.His eyes were as sharp as a falcon, fixed on Ruan Linzhou's face, as if he wanted to poke a hole out of him.
Ruan Linzhou stretched out his hand, patted Chen Chrome's head twice, stepped out of the wooden cart with his long legs, turned and dragged Chen Chrome out, and said, "Mr. Yuan doesn't trust me, and I can't prove anything. However, the former Everything has lost its meaning, if I wanted to harm you, I would have done it last night."
Yuan Jiawen was expressionless, turned over from the car and landed on the ground neatly, grabbed Chen He with the dagger behind his back, squeezed out a smile, and said: "We were bitten by a snake once, so we have to be more cautious. But along the way, I'm getting more and more weird, and I apologize in advance if this question offends you."
Ruan Linzhou walked forward with the two of them, leaving his entire back to them, and said with a smile: "Ask, every time I play a killing game, I am always the one who is the most suspicious. I am not good at speech, and I am always killed by mistake. I may be born with With this vibe."
Chen Chrome smiled awkwardly, and echoed: "Huh? That's because Professor Ruan, you are too smart. I was still suspicious of Li Xinglan at first, and I didn't understand what he was thinking. Forgive us stupid people, ahaha." After finishing speaking, he elbowed Yuan Jiawen twice, making the latter cough until he coughed.
Yuan Jiawen wrapped Chen Chrome's elbow with his palm, shook it jokingly, and said, "Since you have joined such a large and secretive organization, why don't you use its power to leave the palace of Qin? I have other tasks."
Ruan Linzhou told the truth: "It's not that I don't want to go, but I'm too poor to take action after recuperating for more than three months. After a year, I finally recovered to a level that can barely be called healthy. The conditions in the palace are very good, which helps When I recover my body, the most dangerous place is also the safest, is that what you Chinese say?"
You Chinese?Chen Chrome shrugged, thinking it was very interesting. One point five Chinese and one point five Germans walked in the secret space below the ground in the ancient capital of Xianyang 2000 years ago.
Ruan Linzhou: "I have been looking for you through Mohist's organization, but the faction in Xianyang is not good at intelligence investigation. Finding people is like finding a needle in a haystack. I can't provide more useful information except appearance. In my days, I want to do something for ordinary people through my own efforts."
Chen Chrome: "You are amazing, the Mohists are going to deal with Qin?"
Ruan Linzhou: "To be precise, the purpose of the Mohists is to protect the common people. It advocates both love and non-aggression, and generally does not participate in political struggles and ordinary wars. They used to be brilliant, established a powerful intelligence network, developed science and technology, and emerged Send out a group of top warriors with outstanding martial arts to travel between countries and provide a place for the people at the bottom to shelter from the wind and rain."
Yuan Jiawen: "I'm really sorry."
Ruan Linzhou: "It's nothing. I can see that you care about Chen He very much. He is my favorite student. Let's continue. Although Mohists have never advocated meddling in politics, the appearance of zombies three years ago changed their strategy. Xin Zheng The battle was too fierce, and 10 people were killed and injured in the Heluo area day and night. The Mohist re-entered the court, and together with his son Fusu, he opposed the raising of zombies, and promoted the cooperation of the civil forces of the six countries, with a view to jointly destroying Qin. The corpse soldiers did not intend to target Qin. After all, the world is like this, and it will always be a family's turn. Since their faction built the center in Xianyang, of course they have already bet on Qin. No, they can't now Speaking of six countries, there are only four countries left.”
"Are there many factions in their faction?" After saying this, even Chen He didn't know how to respond. Thinking of the days and nights when Xinzheng was besieged, "They support Qin, and they are afraid Zombies are detrimental to the country, gathering civilian forces to fight against corpse soldiers, complicated politics, this is really ridiculous."
He took Yuan Jiawen's hand and walked in the dark, feeling that the killer was so white that it looked like the light bulb flower in the underground cave in "Famine", he couldn't help but squeeze with him all the time, and asked: "Gavin, is it?" A white eagle?"
Yuan Jiawen let out a "hmm", always paying attention to the movement around him, and didn't understand why Chen Chrome suddenly asked such a sentence.
Chen Chrome: "This name is very suitable for you, but please don't be too nervous. You know? Teamwork does not require everyone to be friends. The team members just share a goal. We have no conflicts in fighting zombies. Trust is more difficult than doubt, but I hope you can try to trust others, don't always isolate yourself, it will be tiring. There is a saying: If you keep looking at the devil's face, your face will become a devil look."
Yuan Jiawen was silent for a while, then bent down and kissed Chen Chrome's forehead, saying: "My nature is like this, but I will try hard."
The underground space is much bigger than what Chen Ru imagined. I really don't understand the brain circuit of ancient people. They dared to dig out such a big secret room under the king's capital of Qin. Perhaps it would be more convenient to say that "underground fortress" appropriate.
"This is too unreasonable. I think Mohist and the Qin royal family should have cooperated before." He couldn't figure it out, and couldn't help feeling emotional, saying: "It's too complicated! If Ying Zheng finds out about this place, he will definitely be very angry He vomited blood three times, his eyes became black and fainted Gu Qi."
A man's voice came from the darkness, extremely deep and deep, asking: "Who is here?"
Ruan Linzhou immediately stopped Chen and Yuan, stood still and did not dare to move, and replied respectfully: "A disciple of the Mo family, Ruan Linzhou. Two friends are in trouble, and now they want to hide in the bunker. Please be lenient."
After a moment of silence, the voice sounded again, saying: "The bunker is closed to outsiders recently, you can place the two of them in the tavern, observe for half a month and then make plans."
Ruan Linzhou: "It's really difficult. These two friends risked their lives to be suspected of entering Qin Palace to assassinate, but they were discovered by Jiang's lackeys. Right now, Qin Palace is under martial law. In less than half a day, the city gates will be sealed off and the whole city will be searched. If the bunker is unwilling to protect them and live in the tavern, it is really hard to escape."
The voice seemed to be hesitant, sighed, and said: "It's not that we don't want to help each other, it's just that it's a troubled time right now."
Another voice suddenly sounded, as if it came from behind everyone.
The man said loudly: "Everything Mr. Ruan said is true. It is very brave to assassinate the King of Qin. The gatekeeper! Light the torch, and you can't see clearly in the dark." This man obviously arrived very early, and he listened to the previous conversation. in the ear.
When the gatekeeper heard this, he immediately opened the mechanism.
In a blink of an eye, the slate gate "rumbling" was suspended in the air by chains, revealing a relatively narrow entrance.He twisted another mechanism, and there were several "bang bang bang", dozens of light blue flames ignited on both sides of the gate, and the cold fire instantly illuminated the entire dark underground.
Ruan Linzhou turned around and walked back, and called out politely, "Juzi."
The young man who was called "Juzi" saw Ruan Linzhou and quickly stepped forward, hugged him warmly, and said, "Why is Mr. Ruan so polite? Your friend is Mo Zhe's friend, come with me Just come in."
After finishing speaking, he turned around, bowed to Chen He and Yuan Jiawen, and introduced himself modestly: "I am a disciple of the Mohist school. I have been wrongly loved by all the Mohists. I am really ashamed of this title. If you don't If you dislike me, you can call me by my name directly, my name is..."
"Brother Zhong—!"
The fire was jumping, flickering, and Chen Rue suddenly saw a very familiar face. After hearing his voice, he tried to remember for a while, and finally remembered: "Hey! You are not Qin...do you still remember me?"
Zhong Ji was shocked when he heard the words, the experience in the underground of Xiaoshan was too amazing, how could he forget it?Immediately replied: "Chen He! You...you are walking too slowly. It will take three years to reach Xianyang, right?"
After reuniting after a long absence, both of them were very excited and rushed to hug each other on the spot.
