Confucianism in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 43
This is a very simple and unsophisticated manor, covering a very large area, the houses inside are patchwork, and the rice paddies are connected.It was supposed to be very lively, but it seemed deserted, because no one was walking around in the Zhuangzi at the moment.

Ji Yanran looked at the stone tablet in front of the village, it was a broken tablet, the section was very smooth and neat.

Fu Nian came to the front and touched the fracture.This stone tablet is made of green gang stone, the texture is extremely hard, even if it is cut with a sword, it is difficult to leave marks, but now it has been neatly cut off.

Judging from the incisions, it is absolutely extraordinary that a sword can do it, it should be a magic weapon, and it is caused by the tyrannical sword energy.

As soon as the two stepped into the manor, they sensed the murderous aura floating in the air, and every corner of the manor was filled with panic and fear.

"Please also tell Wei Sikong that I will come to pay a visit." Ji Yanran said to the empty Zhuangzi.

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard footsteps coming from behind, and a group of people came out.

Surrounding them, with alert eyes, pointed spears, bows and arrows at the two of them.

After a while, surrounded by a crowd of people, an old man in fine clothes came over. He was about sixty years old, with silver hair and eyes as sharp and deep as a falcon.

"So it's Master Ji, I'm rude! I'm rude!" Wei Yong apologized to the two, and then said to the people in the Zhuangzi: "You go back first."

The guards in this group of Zhuangzi put away their weapons and retreated, only the few trusted guards who escorted Wei Yong to Luoyang stood on both sides.

"Master Ji and this Zhongzi have worked so hard, can you move to the mansion and let the old man drink a little wine?" Wei Yong invited politely.

Ji Yanran smiled slightly and said, "Since Wei Sikong treats you warmly, I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

The three of them walked towards the depths of Zhuangzi.When I came to the back hall, I sat down, and the maid served snacks.

After some conversation, the two knew everything that happened in Weijiazhuang during this period of time.

At night, if there are fierce ghosts demanding their lives, people in Zhuangzi will die unexpectedly, no matter men, women, old or young.

This explains why He Zhuangzhong is so heavily guarded.

This is obviously a retaliatory killing. The murderer deliberately created a kind of panic, which made people in Zhuangzi panic and tortured everyone's psychological endurance.

The murderer must have enmity with one or more people in Zhuangzi.

"Does Wei Sikong have any enemies in his mind?" Ji Yanran asked.

Wei Yong frowned, thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "Nothing!"

When Wei Yong said this, his tone was very affirmative, but there was anxiety in his eyes, as well as the sinisterness hidden in his eyes.

Fu Nian has been observing Wei Yong, naturally he did not let go of the changes in his eyes.

.........

Apart from Fu Nianji Yanran, there are also two people who came to this Zhuangzi, one with white clothes and hair tied up, the other with black clothes with loose hair.

"This Zhuangzi looks like a dead city on the surface..." the white-clothed swordsman stared at Zhuangzi in front of him and said.

"Actually, there are quite a few people hiding in the dark." The black-clothed and white-haired cold-hearted person took over the conversation.

"The mountains and forests outside the village are full of murderous aura, and the village is also full of dangers." The swordsman in white continued.

"But they're not the same people."

"Two different groups of strangers, each hostile to two strangers."

The two walked towards Zhuangzi, and suddenly they stopped because there was something parked in front of them, which was a drum.

Immediately, the doors on both sides of the street opened wide, and several barrels rushed towards them.

A greasy, pungent stench emanated from the barrel.

"It's fire oil." The swordsman in white said in a deep voice.

All the Zhuang people who were ambushing in the dark for a moment rushed out, and the flaming rockets were already ready to shoot.

"Fire arrows!"

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
A series of arrows flew out from all over Zhuangzi and hit the two of them. The rocket pierced the sky and shot at the two with scalding heat.

The black-clothed and white-haired swordsman kicked the barrel, sending it flying. The barrel flipped in mid-air, and then hit the flying rocket. The rocket exploded immediately after touching the barrel.

Immediately, sparks flew wildly and crackled.Thick smoke rose.

The sword in the black-clothed swordsman's hand was already out of its sheath. It was a sword with grooves on its body, and the blade was glowing faintly and coldly.

His figure was as fast as lightning, shuttled through the dense rain of arrows, and the tip of his sword kept provoking rockets one after another.

With a wave of his long sword, the sword energy surged, and rows of rockets were chopped off in half and fell to the ground.

Not a single arrow could hurt him in the slightest.

On the other side, seeing that everyone's eyes were attracted by the black-clothed swordsman, the white-clothed swordsman jumped up and came to the roof. He pointed out that Zhuang Min, who was lying in ambush on the roof, suddenly felt his body freeze. move.

The white-clothed swordsman struck out with a palm, the roof tiles shattered, sawdust flew across, and a gap appeared in the roof.

The white-clothed swordsman had a light figure, and jumped into the room along the crack. The villagers in the house never expected that someone could sneak in while avoiding their eyes and ears, and they were caught off guard.

Relaxed and freehand, with a single palm, all the villagers in the house were stunned and fell to the ground.

He continued to plunder towards the houses on the inner side, and all the villagers he met along the way were easily dealt with.

To capture the thief, first capture the king, as long as the leader of this group is controlled, the rest of the matter will be much easier.

He came to the main courtyard. At this time, an old man with white beard and hair was sitting on the main seat in the hall.There is a delicate woman and a gentle child sitting on the guest seat.

He drew his sword out of its sheath, a cold light suddenly appeared, and the sword was fierce and swift.

The blade of the sword is pointing at the person in charge.

But a figure appeared in front of him, it was the child.His expression was very calm, as if what he was facing was not a sword's edge, but a spring breeze.

The sword is three feet long, the right arm is dominant, the spiral is diagonal, the slash is turned into a stab, the sword's posture is the sagittal axis, the vertical coronal plane, 55 degrees, external rotation and adduction, forward and backward movement, and the kinetic energy transfer efficiency is in the top 1 of the sword body /4-1/3 half-arc area.

Fu Nian saw the weakness of the sword at a glance, and simulated and shaped the trajectory of all possible sword moves in his mind.

As soon as the sword finger condensed, a sword energy came out through the body and hit the sword body.

The blade trembled slightly, changing the original trajectory.The long sword in Fu Nian's hand was struck out at the right time, and it was almost across the neck of the white-clothed swordsman, only an inch away, and he would definitely die from this sword.

The white-clothed swordsman never thought that his move would be over.

Fu Nian withdrew his sword and looked at the swordsman in white.

"How offending, I don't know who you are? Maybe there is some misunderstanding here?" Fu Nian said to the white-clothed swordsman.

With the sword just now, the opponent had no killing intent.

At this time, the swordsman in black and white hair also entered the hall, he did not act rashly, the woman in purple gave him an extremely dangerous feeling.

"Gai Nie, this is my junior brother Wei Zhuang." Gai Nie said to the boy in Tsing Yi, seeing that the other party was not hostile.

"Presumably the two of you are also here because of the strange bloody case in Zhuangzhong." Fu Nian said.

"This is an exam question." Wei Zhuang, who was dressed in black and had white hair, replied that the two could catch his eyes.
"How do you know that the two of you are not Qin's assassins? Or are you not on the same team as the murderer?" Wei Yong said coldly.

These two not only hurt his people, but also destroyed the ambush he set up, he was naturally dissatisfied.Besides, these two are still unfamiliar faces.

"These two young heroes have extraordinary bearing, and they are definitely not ordinary people from the world.

It must have a lot of origins, how could it be related to the Qin people and the murderer who killed Zhuangmin. "Ji Yanran said at the right time.

These two people can have such kung fu at their age, they must be disciples of some famous family.

"If the two young heroes are really murderers, the villager outside the house has already died. I thank the two young heroes for their mercy."

Hearing Ji Yanran's words, Wei Zhuang's stern expression softened a little.

"My junior brother and I are disciples of Guigu, and we are here to find out the cause of the strange murder here." Seeing that the other party was more polite, Gai Nie said truthfully.

According to legend, this Guigu school was founded by a strange man named Wang Xu. Because he lived in Guigu in Yunmeng Mountain, he called himself Mr. Guigu and was called Guiguzi.

It is also said that it got this name because of the four moles on the front of the forehead, which became the image of ghosts.

His disciples Su Qin, Zhang Yi, Sun Bin, and Pang Juan traveled across the seven kingdoms. There was a saying that the princes were afraid when they were angry, and that they lived in peace and the world went silent.

"The common people are smeared, the world is scorched, and there are hundreds of schools of thought, but I am the only one. I think the two young heroes are the ghosts of this generation." Ji Yanran said to the two.

"I think there are people who understand here, not all fools." After Wei Zhuang finished speaking, he got up and left.His mind was very simple, he just wanted to find out the truth of the matter and complete the exam questions.

"It turns out that Guiguzi is a high-ranking apprentice, so this matter is too much work and too much trouble." Wei Yong bowed his hands to Gai Nie, but his attitude changed 180 degrees, and he was very respectful.

Although Ge Nie didn't like his behavior like this, but he was pure in nature, and he didn't show it at all.

Besides, both the boy in Tsing Yi and this girl have good intentions towards them, so he naturally took their thoughts into consideration.

"I came here by the order of my teacher, and Gai Nie dare not refuse." Gai Nie returned a salute to Wei Yong.

The extremely mysterious Guigu where these two people came from was something that Fu Nian had never thought of. Thinking of the legend about Guiguzi, he was naturally curious.
