Qin Gong

Chapter 16 Hey, hey, stop.

"Hurry up!!"

"Drive~!"

On the official road, more than a dozen cavalrymen wearing Qi armor yelled and kept lifting the horse's belly with their legs.

The people passing by along the way, even the grooms of some carriages, saw this and hurried towards both sides of the official road.

Shui Yan is also among them.

Because it's the first time to travel far and don't know the way, the official way is the best choice.

After all, compared with other roads, official roads are not only wider than ordinary roads by more than a carriage, but more importantly, most official roads are directly connected to the next city, and there are few forks.

Therefore, when traveling far away for the first time, taking the official route also reduces the risk of getting lost.

more importantly.

On the official road, there are generally no robbers and other desperadoes.

After all, no one is stupid enough to mess around in officialdom.

Robbing the people is not the same as compromising the majesty of a country.

Although the former will also be wanted, the latter is directly forced, and the officials who belong to the place where the incident happened will not stop dying.

After all, you are on other people's territory, and you beat other officials in the face openly. In order to keep your job and not be angered, you must not use your head?
Therefore, the official road is undoubtedly the fastest and safest road among all roads.

Therefore, along the way, Shui Yan saw countless carriages of merchants and gentry.

"quick!!"

Goooooooo~!

Accompanied by a shout, there was a dense sound of horseshoes, and a dozen Qi cavalrymen flashed in front of Shui Yan in an instant.

And this time.

The carriages that had just escaped and the people who were on their way returned to the official road one after another, and looked at the cavalry who had gone away suspiciously.

Seeing those cavalrymen in such a hurry, it seemed that something serious must have happened.

But after the discussion.

The big guy should continue on his way, no one took it to heart.

"Get out of the way!"

"Step aside!"

Not long after the cavalry left, the carriage on the official road began to shout as the wheels turned.

Seeing this, the common people hurriedly avoided.

"Avoid cheap to expensive, less to avoid strong, light to avoid heavy, go to avoid come."

The rules of walking on the official road are vividly displayed at this moment.

Shui Yan is no longer a newborn calf, and he has long been accustomed to the "privileges" of the rich and powerful in this era, so he didn't find it strange.

This scene.

It's just one of the products of this era.

It's nothing compared to the others.

An hour later.Shui Yan, who was carrying a package and a sword across his back and waist, was rushing on the road, but suddenly saw some Qi soldiers with weapons on the official road in the distance, and they were interrogating the people.

And in a place near the investigation, a dozen corpses suddenly appeared in the middle of the road.

Men and women of all ages.

And a carriage with a lot of blood splattered quietly parked aside.

"Why did so many people die!"

"Hiss, dare to kill someone on the official road, I'm afraid you're courting death!"

Shui Yan listened to the whispered discussions of the people on the road beside him, and his eyes were very curious.

By road.

Killing someone on the official path is indeed like courting death.

There are really people who have eaten the bear's heart and leopard's guts, so desperate.What a hatred this must be!

on the official road.

Two soldiers of the state of Qi wore swords and kept checking the people coming and going.

"Last name! Where do you live?"

After checking and confirming their identities, the two Qi soldiers will release them.

Don't underestimate this way of checking people.

Just now those cavalry have notified the incident to the nearby cities, it must not be long.

Don't talk about the official way.

Even on country roads, there will be soldiers from the state of Qi interrogating them.

If the murderer wants to leave, it's not that simple!
Shui Yan lined up, waiting to check himself.

And at this time, he also saw a dead soul who was about the same age as him sitting there in a daze beside the carriage.

Apparently the boy's dead soul already knew that he had been killed.

It's just that I can't let go of the obsession in my heart, so the soul of the dead has not dissipated for a while.

And when Shui Yan was looking at him, the dead soul apparently also found Shui Yan who was the same size as him.

Just when the soulless boy saw that Shui Yan was the same age as him, but he was already dead, he felt a little sad.

But suddenly found.

The boy who was the same age as himself didn't seem to be looking at the carriage.

That look.

I was looking at him! ! !

This discovery made the young soul of the dead stunned, full of disbelief. He looked at himself, did he not die?
But the next moment.

When the soulless boy looked at the carriage, he saw his own body again.

Immediately, the emotions that had been excited just now became sluggish again.

really.

He is still dead!
No, no, then he died, how could that boy see him again?
The dead soul boy who suddenly grasped the key point raised his head with a puzzled expression.

"You. Can you see me?"

As if wanting to prove it, the dead soul boy said to Shui Yan.

With the tone of a nobleman in his lifetime, but coupled with that puzzled expression, it looks extraordinarily ridiculous.

The dead soul boy didn't get an answer, but he clearly saw the boy looking at him after hearing his words, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Can you really see me?"

Shui Yan's expression obviously startled the soulless boy, he stretched out his hand, pointing at Shui Yan in disbelief.

However, at this time, Shui Yan didn't pay attention to the dead boy.

"Last name! Where do you live?"

Qi soldiers looked at Shui Yan and questioned him.

At this time, other nearby Qi soldiers also looked at Shui Yan.

They had already noticed this boy just now.

In other words, he saw the young man with a sword across his waist!

Therefore, during the cross-examination now, they cheered up one after another.If the boy with the sword was even the slightest bit weird, they would have caught him in no time and brought him back for torture.

"Shui Yan, who lives in Water Village outside Linzi City."

While speaking, Shui Yan took out from his bosom the wooden token that the man gave him.

Seeing that Shuiyan had a customs clearance wooden sign, not to mention the Qi soldiers who were interrogating, but the other Qi soldiers all looked relieved.

As long as the wooden sign is not fake.

That boy, there is no problem.

"Hi~!"

The Qi State soldier who was interrogating took the wooden tablet from Shui Yan's hand, and when he saw the special mark engraved with the word 'Tian', he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

As a soldier in Qi State, how could he not understand what this 'Tian' represents behind.

Therefore, when I look at the boy with the sword in front of me now.This soldier of the Qi State put away the contempt that appeared in his eyes because of the young man's clothes.

"What? Tian! You belong to Mr. Tian!!!"

However, beside the Qi soldiers who were interrogating, the young soulless boy reacted extremely violently after looking at the wooden sign.

"Go over!"

However, the soldiers of Qi State who were in charge of the interrogation could neither hear nor see the young soulless boy beside him.

After handing the customs clearance wooden sign to Shui Yan, he indicated that Shui Yan could continue on his way.

"Thank you!"

Shui Yan took the wooden sign and put it in his arms.After thanking the soldiers of Qi State, they continued on their way.

Seeing this, the neglected young soul quickly followed Shui Yan.

"Hey, hey, I'm the son of the Zou family. My father and your master Tian are colleagues. Hey, hey, did you hear me? Stop, stop!"
