Chapter 3
If you want to guard the flesh of the emperor, you have to pretend to be a human being and mix into the mortal world.

The mortal world is where the Emperor lives, and the Emperor now lives in the palace.

For this reason, the two foxes took good care of themselves.

Holding a folding fan in his hand, Bai Tu was dressed in undyed white clothes, with a graceful demeanor, standing out among the crowd in the market.

Xiao Baitao turned into an eight or nine-year-old girl, with two double-spiral buns on her head, raised high, like two fox ears.

She took her elder brother's hand and rolled her eyes, staring intently at the street vendors, horses, camels, and all kinds of Zhao people running around the city.

Can't wait to grow a third eyeball.

In the past, a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon, the growth and withering of a flower and a leaf would attract her attention, not to mention so many things that were alive and kicking in front of Baitao?

So she took advantage of her elder brother's inattention, passed through the crowd, and sat on a vendor full of exquisite pottery figurines.

Hiding behind a clay fox made of terracotta figures, ready for decoration.

The people in front of the vendor were amazed to see a girl sitting on it.

She opened her big watery eyes, quite innocent and cute.

The baby-like face and the red water chestnut headband are still swaying in the breeze, like the most delicious pastries, and also like the most outstanding porcelain ornaments.

Just hang up a sign and write a price, do any of you want to buy it?
There are still some people around who are watching the excitement and don't think it's a big deal, but they really come to bid.

With a "snap", Bai Tu aggressively walked through the crowd, and smashed the handle of a fan on the head of Baitao in the booth.

Baitao covered her head, feeling rather sluggish, "Brother, I was wrong."

Ben was still enjoying herself in pretending to be a terracotta figurine, but she didn't want to be interrupted by her elder brother. Not only that, but the angry elder brother also specially put the tripping demon bell that had not been used for a long time on her ankle.

It was a magical weapon that she used when she was naughty when she was a child. Wearing this tripping bell, brother can find her no matter when and where.

"If you make trouble again, I will tie you up."

After brother finished speaking, he carried her on his body.

After all, she was tired after playing around all day, Baitao lost the energy to toss around, and leaned on Brother's chest obediently, she rubbed her eyes and muttered: "Brother, where are we going?"

"Go and sneak in, create something out of nothing; bluff and deceive, and play tricks for a fox."

Great.

It doesn't seem to be a serious business.

*
The brother and sister lived in a Hulin restaurant.

Whenever the lights are on and people want to flow, my elder brother will show up in the most prosperous center with a white peach to lavish money.

In short, high-profile throwing money.

Although Baitao didn't know what it was useful for, she picked up a handful of gold from the box at the back, and waited for the butler in the wine shop to raise her voice and shout: "Welcome Immortal Bai to HD City, for the benefit of our HD people!"

"Whoa-"

She rubbed her paws, and the gold leaked out.

There were already crowds of people downstairs, they hung their coats together and raised their sleeves to form a curtain, without even saying thank you, they grabbed the tempting gold and fought for it.

"Mine! It's mine, don't grab it!"

"Go away, whoever gets it will get it!"

"I used to be a gangster, so I'm still afraid of you? Come on, let's fight!"

It didn't take a moment for the people below to fight each other with fists and kicks. Their eyes were full of desire for gold and money. If they couldn't snatch it, they took out their daggers to kill each other, like ghosts and monsters, dancing wildly among demons.

"The wages of avarice is death."

Elder brother kept it in his eyes and said lightly.

Baitao felt that it was a little unreasonable for ordinary people to earn money so coldly and coldly.

It's just gold, isn't there a lot of it? When she was running around in the mountains, she could dig it casually, and she could dig it.

"Little guy, do you want to see something crazier?"

A smile overflowed from the corner of brother's mouth, and the evilness between his brows quietly spread.

He lifted his foot and kicked, and the box full of gold tipped over on its side.

"Crash-crash-"

The brilliant golden light shone in this wine shop, as if casting some kind of soul-stirring magic, pulling everyone's minds and making everyone enchanted by it.

The people with red eyes were not afraid of the risk of being crushed to death, but took a step forward. They stretched out their hands and screamed: "Gold, gold, mine, it's all mine!"

"Kill you all, this gold belongs to me."

"Buy a woman, use it to buy a woman, hahahaha!"

"Ah! I'm going to kill you!"

The smell of blood gradually began to permeate again, and the looting continued.

Crazy indeed.

Baitao thought to herself, Brother took her out of the venue, changed to another house the next day, and went to another house the next day.

Baitao has noticed that these people who are fighting for gold have begun to settle down.

There were a few women at the beginning, but now they are all strong men like a bison, with such flesh and tendons all over their bodies, they can smash half of a person's head with a single punch.

But my elder brother said to leave them alone and continue to throw, Baitao didn't think much about it, she still shook her paws, throwing away money without asking for money.

It was like a storm was blowing in the city of HD. Within a few days, the enthusiastic people of HD pushed these already weird behaviors to a more mysterious climax, and even the rulers in the temple were alarmed one after another.

So when Baitao followed her elder brother to distribute money again, a group of Zhao soldiers with daggers on their waists and pipe hats marched in order, and drove the vicious people away, and they occupied the place by themselves.

The leading general said: "Bai Xianren, I have admired your name for a long time, and we, King Zhao, have an invitation."

Baitao didn't know why people from the government came to meddle. Could it be that they also wanted to steal money?
There is also the king of Zhao, isn't the king enough to have enough money?

The little fox doesn't know the greed in the world yet.

Elder brother seemed to have expected it, he shook his fan, and said to her: "Little guy, you have to know that most of the money in this world is in the hands of these powerful people."

Bai Tao nodded.

She followed her elder brother into the magnificent Zhao Palace.

Sitting at the banquet where the bells and drums were ringing and the elegant music was played, the leader Zhao Wang was considered young. He raised the golden goblet cup to toast first, and several humerus ministers around him also raised their wine cups and responded with deep smiles.

"Shangxian, please."

Baitao sniffed the fine wine in the wine bottle.

Before she smelled anything, the brother next to her took the wine bottle out of her paw, and the other big hand with well-defined bones was fiddling with the gold nugget that had just been turned into gold.

Elder Brother's flattery towards King Zhao seemed to show disdain even at his fingertips.

Dismissively.

This kind of behavior made the banquet very embarrassing, and the faces of Zhao Guo's courtiers became not so good-looking.

However, if they were in the past, they would feel that this move was disrespectful, and naturally they did not want to associate with such a ignorant person.

But the other party's magical means of turning stones into gold is convincing, not to mention that no one will escape the temptation of money, not even the royal family.

The long-sleeved courtiers immediately turned the situation around.

A green glowing night pearl the size of a fist was presented to Baitao, and they saw the weakness of Shangxian.

This is a rare treasure of the Zhao country, but it is still very worthwhile to sacrifice to win over an immortal.

Although the courtier thought so, his heart was bleeding.

Baitao was still obediently serving as a decoration, when she suddenly saw a round and shiny thing in front of her, which aroused her great interest.

After getting brother's affirmation, she grabbed it with her claws and took it for herself.

My brother said that if you are a vixen, you don't have to be so polite with others.

The atmosphere was warmer, and Minister Humerus continued to smile inscrutablely. Zhao Wang took the opportunity to say: "Look, Shangxian, looking at the seven kingdoms in the world, only Zhao Guo is tough and good at fighting, with a population of more than 30 million and [-] armored knights. There is no match for a first-class powerful country in the world. As long as you get the help of the gods, this king's army can travel thousands of miles and conquer the six kingdoms. At that time, whether it is fame or fame, glory or wealth, as long as the gods want to take it, this king will give it to you! "

How good is Zhao Guo?

But it wasn't long before Zhao was defeated by Qin.

Baitao thought in her heart that the news of the defeat had already reached the ears of a vixen, and she even said that she was a first-class power.

This king of Zhao likes to open his eyes and talk nonsense even though he is a king.

shameless.

Sure enough, brother didn't even lift his eyelids: "The first-class powerful country is the country of tigers and wolves from the east, Qin."

"Hahahaha! Qin, that country of barbarians, is nothing to fear, nothing to fear!"

"As for the person who came out of the Hangu Pass mountain ditch, the most promising people in the world are afraid that they will make a detour and want to pose a threat to our Zhao country. Are they worthy of those reckless men?"

"Hahahahaha!"

"Our Zhao State has Li Mu, the god of war who has never lost a hundred battles. What does their Qin State have? Hahahahaha! I'm afraid there will be no more in vain, the general trend is gone!"

After finishing speaking, all the ministers were staggering and laughing together.

Even Zhao Wang, who was the leader, laughed proudly. He stroked his sideburns repeatedly, and said with a smile: "Qin people? Qin people are just horsemen who raise horses for the emperor of Zhou. They are born to be slaves and servants, so let it pass. For a hundred years, they are also breeds of horses!"

Elder Brother Qingjun's brows and eyes are relaxed, and Baitao also thinks that these people are very noisy, so she just rolls the rare treasures for fun.

King Zhao laughed and said, "If the immortal doesn't believe it, I will call the Qin people up later to show the immortal."

"Come here! Bring that horse slave, Zhao Zheng, to this king! Let the immortals see how the Qin people are slaves of our Zhao country."

Zhao Wang patted the long case, full of pride, he tore off a piece of venison and threw it in his mouth, feasting on it.

Zhao Zheng?

Is it that good thing?

Baitao was still playing with Ye Mingzhu, when she heard the name, she held Ye Mingzhu in her arms and looked towards the entrance of the hall.

The sky outside was dazzling, and within a moment, a young boy with black shackles on his hands and feet walked in with his back to the sky.

His complexion hidden in the shadows was unclear.

The friction from the iron chain dragging across the jade slab was extremely harsh, scratching people's eardrums.

"kneel--"

The eunuch raised a long male duck voice.

The young boy knelt down and knocked his head on the ground, but his back was stretched into a straight line, with a hint of arrogance.

It was a normal salute, but the eunuch beside him gave him a hard kick on the back, "Kowtow three times, even being a slave can't tell good from bad!"

It can be called making things difficult.

Even though his back was kicked, he didn't soften at all. He straightened his back, as if maintaining his last dignity, "I am the prince of Qin, not your slave of Zhao!"

"laugh."

Zhao Wang sneered condescendingly, "Your father, that soft-footed shrimp, left you here. I didn't expect to become the prince after returning to Qin, and you also became useful. I didn't expect you to be tricky? This king tells you that you are a slave, your father is a slave of Zhao, and the offspring of a slave are also slaves."

The courtier followed suit and said, "My lord, he has only fed the horses in our Zhao country for a few years, and he has been contaminated with the horse's fierceness. It is conceivable that the horses raised in our Zhao country are not ordinary, and the horse slaves who raise the horses are not ordinary." generally."

"Hahahaha!" Zhao Wang was delighted.

Zhao Zheng clenched his hands tightly into fists, and there was water-like hostility flowing all over his body, like a small beast tensed up to hurt someone.

"Unconvinced? Then fight!"

Seeing his still stubborn expression, the smile on King Zhao's face instantly subsided, his flesh trembled, and he scolded him coldly.

Baitao touched the round night pearl and rolled it around twice.

When the eunuch below heard the order, he picked up the whip and lashed Zhao Zheng's thin body vigorously.

The whip was not only soaked in medicine, but also had fine barbs, even a strong man like an ox couldn't bear a few whips, let alone a young man.

In order to show off, the eunuch used even more strength.

"Swipe—" "Swipe—" "Swipe—"

Three consecutive whips.

With blood spattering from the skin and flesh, Zhao Zheng's whole body convulsed in pain, his teeth rattled, and cold sweat gushed out.

It seemed that he didn't feel pain at all, or he was born accustomed to endurance, and the blood further stimulated the Nigu in his body.

Following the oppressive questioning in the hall, Zhao Zheng's voice was not heavy, but it was like a heavy hammer hitting people's hearts, "Zhao Zheng will never be a slave."

The air froze for about two or three seconds.

The dignified King Zhao didn't allow anyone to disobey him, let alone a small hostage, he threw the wine bottle in his hand at the unruly Zhao Zheng, "Hit, hit! Hit! Hit until he is convinced!"

"brush--"

A whip.

Two whips.

The severe pain in his body, the scarlet blood on his forehead rolled down his cheeks, blurring Zhao Zheng's vision, his throat was clogged with sticky blood, and his eardrums buzzed.

Baitao really couldn't stand it anymore, and felt that being an emperor was really miserable, so she threw the bead in her hand down to stop it.

"Gudong—"

The bead rolled on Zhao Zheng's knee, stained with blood and became no longer bright, like a pearl covered in dust.

However, Zhao Zheng was so painful that he had no time to take care of it.

"I'm going to pick up my beads."

Bai Tao said crisply.

The execution of the great power demonstration in the hall was interrupted, and the eunuch stopped briefly.

Zhao Zheng got a moment's respite from the unbearable pain.

The girl was too close, and no one would have been so close to him. He, who had raised horses in the stable all year round, was full of stench, mixed with mud and sweat, and even he himself felt disgusted.

He struggled back half a minute.

He saw the little golden bell on the girl's ankle, and the tinkling sound pulled his thoughts closer and further away, and he felt dizzy again and again.

Zhao Zheng bit the tip of his tongue tightly, he must not faint.

Baitao knelt down and picked up the luminous pearl, looked at his bloody face, tilted her head and whispered, "Does it hurt?"

Does it hurt.

It hurts.

Zhao Zheng couldn't answer her anymore, even if he could, he didn't want to tell anyone about his embarrassment.

Baitao looked at him who was beaten but didn't cry, her eyes were full of confusion and incomprehension.

Although it was a pain that could be felt by the naked eye, Baitao had been with her elder brother since she was a child, and her elder brother blocked all the ups and downs.

After all, this kind of thing has never been experienced before, and things that have never been experienced cannot be said to be empathetic.

At first Baitao wanted to stop it, but brother said it was called fattening.

My elder brother also said that the human emperor's meat, which is a great mission from heaven, can only be firm and delicious after being tempered.

But obviously he doesn't look fat, Baitao also thinks that even if it is not delicious, she can eat it, and she is not picky about food.

This is the first time as a vixen, and she disobeyed her elder brother.

She stretched out her paws to resist this fattening.

Sure enough, the elder brother's voice behind him was as cold as ice, "White Tao."

Baitao shook her paw.

The blood-stained Ye Mingzhu couldn't hold it securely, and rolled slipperily to the ground again.

Bai Tu thought she was frightened, her voice froze in her throat and softened, "Little guy, come here."

Baitao walked over, brother wiped the blood on her hands with a handkerchief, his eyes moved slightly, it seemed to blame her for being playful.

"."

In the end, I still regarded myself as a little fox cub with no hair yet, but forgot that she was already over a hundred years old.

Baitao grabbed the hem of her clothes, "Brother, I..."

"That Ye Mingzhu didn't pick it up, wipe it clean and hand it back to Shangxian."

The demonstration was interrupted, and the expression of Zhao Wang above was not so natural, but he also understood that it should not be so bloody in front of the young children, Zhao Wang waved his hand for fear that the gods would be displeased, "Detain Zhao Zheng, don't leave for three days. To eat, to be hungry first."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Two eunuchs set up Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng's face that wasn't covered in blood was as pale as paper. He was so thin that he could be blown away by the wind. The unfitting linen clothes were dragged, revealing his scarred skin.

New additions, old ones.

There was a large black and purple patch on his waist, and he didn't know when he was kicked.

After being beaten like this, you still need to go hungry for three meals?
Baitao looked at it, her little face was twisted into a ball, watching Zhao Zheng being framed gradually, Baitao said, "Wait a minute."

The eunuch's movements stopped.

"All things have spirits, you gave me a bead, but this bead likes Zhao Zheng, since the bead likes it, then I will give this bead to him." Baitao said.

It seemed that the fantasy was rising and falling, and the blood-stained bead rolled beside Zhao Zheng's knee again.

Why did you send him beads?
Zhao Zheng tried his best to see the little girl's face clearly, but he could only hear the shaking sound of the golden bell of Ding Ling and Dang Lang, following her light and nimble movements.

Step by step, step by step.

"How can this give a national treasure to a slave?"

"Impossible."

"It's never been heard before, great king, Shangxian, this is absolutely impossible!"

No matter how noisy the surroundings were, Zhao Zheng could only hear the faint sound of bells.

Seeing that brother was also silent and did not speak, Baitao walked over and tugged at his sleeve because he felt guilty for doing something wrong, "Brother, brother."

The fox cub is so milky and sweet, Bai Tu couldn't blame her, but just patted her head, "Animism is what you use? You have taught you how to cultivate yourself? Hmm?"

Baitao knew that brother wasn't angry, so before he could slap his fox's tail on his happiness, he heard brother say in a low voice, "This time it's up to you, go back and face the wall."

Baitao: "."

The brothers and sisters bit their ears, and the courtiers looked at each other. After a while, Bai Tu's clear voice sounded in the hall, "Since it is destined, I will leave this bead to you to take care of."

After hearing this, all the ministers of Zhao Guo had no objection.

In this way, a banquet showing the strong national strength of a big country came to an end.

Zhao Zheng was spared three days of starvation, and was dragged back to his residence. The gloomy, dark, and rotten residence snaked all over his body like a poisonous snake.

Without the splendor and splendor of the main hall just now, this place was narrow and cramped, but it gave him a sense of stability.

He missed out on death again.

Touching the sticky tide on the cold wall, Zhao Zheng suppressed and coughed out a mouthful of blood foam.

How many times he had escaped from the dead, he couldn't count it. He had been hiding in the city of Zhao since he was a child. At that time, he only knew that he was different from others, but he didn't know the difference.

Hiding around like running mice, dazed and frightened.

The confusion comes from the silence of the parents, and the fear comes from the rapiers of the officers and soldiers.

I don't know when to pick them out of the gutter and face the sun.

Until the end, he knew that he was the prince and grandson of Qin, but so what.

The departure of his father and a businessman completely abandoned him and his mother. The mother lost her mind and went crazy. He was shackled and became a proton. survive.

I don't know when I will die, maybe tomorrow could be the next moment.

I also thought about dying.

But Zhao Zheng saw the power in the temple in this chaotic time, the power to decide the life and death of others with just one word
This desire for power ignited his death-like heart. He has not yet been destroyed, he has not yet felt the pleasure of revenge, he cannot just die.

Zhao Zheng's eyes were dark.

I don't know why the girl wanted to save him?
The identity of Qin Guo's proton dragged him into purgatory, and where he would be dragged into the abyss in the future. The road ahead is uncertain, but he still hears the girl's melodious bell ringing in his ears.
