Chapter 201, Chapter 199

Several villages are not big, with a population of only about a hundred households.

Most of the houses in the village are earthen houses, and there are not many children.

It seems that they are villagers who just immigrated last year.

Rejecting many villagers who wanted him to stay for dinner, Zhang Qi drove Bai Xing and others onto the straight road.

I have to say that Qin Shihuang left a lot for future generations.

These straight roads alone laid the foundation for future roads.

And the construction is also troublesome. The soil and rocks are steamed and then rolled repeatedly. There are basically no weeds, but it is narrower.

The cross-country horses were pacing, which was in line with Zhang Qi's intentions. Recently, he either rectified the Liaodong Army or paid attention to the Youbeiping Campaign. During the period, he also had to deal with official duties sent from Wuhuan Xianbei.

It was rare to be free today, so Zhang Qi closed his eyes and let the cross-country horse walk forward slowly, his body swaying with the ups and downs of the horse's back, and the cicadas and birds chirping in his ears.

The shade of the surrounding trees blocks the sun, and the grass and trees are fragrant when the breeze blows.

Seeing that Zhang Qi's speed was not fast, Bai Xing and others consciously slowed down.

A group of people drove on the straight road without communicating.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Qi's eyes opened suddenly, and he looked towards the side of the forest.

Stretching out a hand, everyone stopped.

Zhang Qi turned his head, pouted angrily in the direction he was looking at just now, Bai Xing understood instantly, and several guards of the Captain's Mansion got off their horses immediately and sneaked into the woods.

With the use of the soul mist, his intuition became more and more acute. Just now, he clearly sensed that someone in the forest was looking at him, and there was a faint malice, so he opened his eyes.

Soon.

There was a humming sound in the woods, and then several guards in leather armor from the Captain's Mansion escorted the two young men out.

"Master Da Shu, please forgive me, we are just passing by, we have no second thoughts."

As the guards pushed the two young men in front of Zhang Qi and pressed down their bodies, the leader immediately begged for mercy.

Zhang Qi didn't intend to listen, and said lightly: "Search."

Now he is the nephew of the Zhang family in Liaodong, the captain of the central region, and a well-known general in Liao.

But any normal person will send spies to collect his information.

Although Zhiwang and Zhang Yi's people can find most of the spies, there will inevitably be omissions, so he only trusts his own eyes.

Sure enough, after Shirahoshi commanded, the guards searched the young man's entire body, and finally found two tiny bamboo pieces in the groin and cuticle of the hind feet.

After being cleaned again, Bai Xing handed the bamboo pieces to Zhang Qi.

"read."

Zhang Qi was not interested in answering.

Bai Xing cupped his hands, and began to read the words on it, while the faces of the two young men beside him were ashen.

"."

After listening to Bai Xing's chanting, Zhang Qi smiled slightly.

"It's really a spy, and the things to investigate are incredible. If this is sent back to Chang'an by you, I won't be able to sleep."

"However, you are so young, how old are you?"

Zhang Qi asked casually.

And the young man who was exposed didn't hide anymore, and cursed at Zhang Qi.

Zhang Qin dug his ears with his little finger, and didn't pay too much attention to the excited young man. Instead, he kept looking at the man whose face kept changing and didn't open his mouth.

"Are you married yet?"

"Have any children?"

"Have you ever had the strongest drink?"

"The best horse ever ridden?"

Following Zhang Qi's questions, even the young man who cursed showed a trace of fear.

As long as it is not a dead man, they will commemorate the incident.

"In fact, death is very uncomfortable. You can't breathe, the light disappears little by little, your strength is drained little by little, and there is only darkness and loneliness around you. This kind of darkness will last for a long time, and then you will know nothing."

"like this."

Zhang Qi touched his waist, and a palm-length flying knife suddenly wiped the throat of the young man who was yelling at him before.

Blood gushed out from his throat, and the young man wanted to block it with his hands, but it was of no avail. As the blood invaded the lungs, the young man desperately wanted to take a breath of air.

But he just couldn't suck it in, his body was so soft, and the light in his eyes dissipated little by little.

This scene was completely seen by the young man who did not speak.

For a while, he had a clearer understanding of death.

"Do you want to continue living?"

Zhang Qi took the Leaf Flying Knife that Bai Xing picked up, and it was wiped clean without a trace of blood.

Inserting it back into the waist again, Zhang Qi asked with a smile.

"Can I still live?"

The young man spoke the first words.

The smile in Zhang Qi's eyes grew stronger.

"Naturally, everyone has a chance to survive, and you are no exception."

"Do you dare to believe me?"

"It's also natural."

Hearing these words, Zhang Qi understood that he had broken the young man's psychological defense, so he dismounted and walked to his side.

"As long as you are loyal to me, I dare to trust you."

As he said that, a spirit point was thrown into the young man's Tianling Cap.

Then he was pushed out again.

Zhang Qi clicked his tongue twice: "It seems that you haven't thought it through yet, don't worry, I'll give you a chance."

"Come here, tie him up from the beginning to the end, and take a group of people back to the Captain's Mansion, where he will be detained first."

"promise!"

The guards strictly followed Zhang Qi's request and tied the stunned young man from his shoulders to his heels.

Then under the escort of six guards, he was sent back to the Duwei's Mansion.

Zhang Qi also considered keeping this young man.

It is also a problem not to let the outside world know any information, so since we must always guard against spies, it is better to turn their spies into our own.

If the spirit point is used well, it is a loyalty tester. Those who can absorb the spirit point can be trusted, and those who cannot absorb it are not trustworthy. It's very simple.

This is also the reason why Zhang Qi has always kept these very scarce spiritual points.

The turmoil on the road broke Zhang Qi's interest in relaxing, he whipped his horse and rushed to Jiaoli with Bai Xing and the remaining six guards.

Jiaoli County.

A heavy city in Western Liaoning.

One of the important places.

Like Wuli County in Liaodong, if you want to pass through Liaoxi, this is the only way to go.

It's not that you can't walk in other places, but in the face of those dangerous terrains that are still dominated by Daze, this is undoubtedly the fastest way.

A wine shop.

Zhang Qi asked Bai Xing to order some food and a pot of rice wine casually.

After pouring himself a glass, he gave the rest of the drink to the guards.

"Thank you Captain for the reward!"

The guards thanked, Zhang Qi smiled: "You are still on business, so you should not drink too much. When you go back, I will treat you to some strong drinks."

Inviting the guards to eat at Ruanta, Zhang Qi looked at Bai Xing who was testing whether the drinks and food were poisonous and asked.

"How long will they be?"

After trying the silver needle, Bai Xing tasted a few mouthfuls of the food with wooden chopsticks, waited for a while and confirmed that it was non-toxic, and sent the food to Zhang Qi's side.

"The caravan sent a message, and it should be here in half an hour."

Zhang Qi nodded.

"Then eat first."

He came out this time because a spy businessman sent a message that Wei Qing had come.
