Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

Chapter 77: My head is broken. Do you think it’s a mirage?

The fog still shrouded the sky, and Li Chao could no longer even find the halo of the sun.

Moreover, the thick milky white mist covered everything, and nothing unusual could be seen.

However, Li Chao could feel that something very small seemed to fall on his face, cooling his heart and lungs.

And at this moment, he suddenly realized that his armor seemed to have become freezing.

What exactly is going on?

"Captain Lieutenant?" Hu Hai on the side was looking at Li Chao with burning eyes, waiting for Li Chao's order.

Although he is unworthy, that is, stupid and bad, he is not really a fool. At least he is already familiar with how to be a superior person.

Although Hu Hai didn't care about using the Weiwei sergeants to make excuses, he knew that this move would definitely be criticized by Weiwei Jie and others, and might also be disliked by the First Emperor.

As the youngest son of the First Emperor, and the eldest son Fusu was imprisoned in the Tingwei Prison, at the critical moment when the First Emperor was preparing to kill the dragon and sue God for deposing his eldest son Fusu, how could he have any stain on his body?

Of course, this kind of order can only be given by Li Chao.When it comes to talking about it, it means that Li Chao is loyal, and Wei Weijun is not willing to die for the king. If the First Emperor does not pursue it, everyone will be happy.

And if the First Emperor is angry, it is because Li Chao is greedy for merit, and I, Hu Hai, cannot persuade him. In addition, this is a major event for the First Emperor to worship heaven, so I have no choice but to let him do whatever he wants.

This is what is called advancing, attacking, retreating and defending!

However, the idea was well made, but the cavalry captain in front of him was not up to the mark. It was really unjustifiable.

"Captain Lieutenant?" he called again.

"Ah?" Li Chao finally came to his senses. He subconsciously glanced at Hu Hai, whose face was full of undisguised impatience.

"Young Master, it seems like it's snowing." He said uncertainly.

Hu Hai was suddenly stunned, and the next moment he became furious.

"Captain of Cavalry!" he said sternly, "As a captain of the Guard Army and a personal soldier of the First Emperor, I am the most powerful warrior in the Qin Dynasty who is in command! Does a mere fog scare you?"

"No!" Li Chao said solemnly, "But..."

"What!" Hu Hai's face was full of anger. Li Chao was Li Xin's son. Although Li Xin lost his army when he attacked Chu, everyone in the court knew that this was not a crime of war, including Li Xin's enemies.

After all, he was cut off because of the betrayal of Lord Changping, and the reason why Lord Changping was able to cut off Li Xin's retreat was because the First Emperor valued his identity as the son of the King of Chu and sent him to the Chu land to calm the people!

As a result, Lord Changping rebelled as soon as he arrived and led the Chu people to rebel against Qin. This was actually because the First Emperor didn't know his people well, and Li Xin just took the blame for the First Emperor.

Of course, compared with Wang Jian, Li Xinxinbing did seem a bit too radical.However, during the attack on Chu, Li Xin's army invaded like fire. Even the famous Chu general Xiang Yan did not dare to face his troops. When Li Xin's army advanced, Xiang Yan's army retreated, and they did not dare to fight at all.Although Li Xin was defeated in the end, his use of troops was indeed impressive.

These days, most knowledge is passed down from family, especially the extremely sensitive knowledge of military affairs. Large families usually regard this knowledge as the foundation of inheritance, and the family's glory and wealth are all pinned on this knowledge.

That's why Li Xin died in depression. Li's military art, which was so aggressive that no one in the world dared to attack him, could only be passed down to Li Chao.

This is the reason why Zhao Gao and Hu Hai attach great importance to Li Chao and specially let Li Chao share the great achievement of killing the dragon with Hu Hai.

Because the Weiwei Army is the most powerful army in the world, it naturally needs a general who can conquer all the troops in the world. Only in this way can it compete with the 1 Great Wall Army led by Meng Tian, ​​the No. 30 general in the world, when things go wrong. !
Originally Zhao Gao was afraid that Li Chao was frivolous, but when he arrived at Langyatai, he found that Li Chao had obviously learned from his father's lessons and was prepared for everything. Hu Hai was still sighing in his heart that this might be a famous general given to him by God.

Unexpectedly, Li Chao's so-called preparedness was shattered by a heavy fog, which instead exposed his flaw of being timid and afraid to do anything.

For example, at this moment, there is a black pot right in front of you.As a cavalry captain, if you don't carry it, is it possible that you want my young son Hu Hai to carry it?

"Have you ever forgotten your father's courage?" Hu Hai said sharply.

Your father took the blame for the First Emperor. Even after taking the blame, the First Emperor not only did not feel his loyalty, but instead appointed a dignified general to serve as the assistant general of the partial army. This was extremely humiliating and caused your father to die in depression.

However, even so, your father never said anything bad about the First Emperor. Otherwise, how would you have the chance to join the Guard Army and become a captain?

How can a non-loyal person serve as a general in the Weiwei Army?
Have you learned nothing from this kind of homeschooling?

"I won't forget it for a moment!" When talking about his deceased father, Li Chao looked respectful and held his hands solemnly.

"Since you dare not forget, why are you holding back?"

"I'm just using the snow to delay this, but you know it's already mid-May and June is about to begin!"

There was a muffled "dong" sound, and someone didn't know what hit Hu Hai's helmet. He subconsciously reached out to touch his helmet, and continued to speak sternly: "It's already summer. Have you ever heard that there is a summer?" What about the snow?”

While he continued to fumble for his helmet, he said aggressively: "It's snowing, tell me where the snow is!"

His fingers finally touched the place where the helmet made the muffled sound, and Hu Hai's expression suddenly changed.

He took off his helmet directly and looked at the place where his fingers had just touched. He saw that a small dent had appeared there!

With a "crash", he jumped down from the chariot and looked at Li Chao angrily. His tone was cold: "Captain Qi, someone in your army actually threw a stone at the general. What crime should be committed?"

Hu Hai is still young, and naturally he cannot compare with the soldiers of the Guards. Therefore, Hu Hai is not wearing heavy armor, but leather armor covered with bronze sheets.

The helmet is also a leather helmet, with a thin layer of copper as decoration.

And now, a piece of copper located on top of the top door has actually been smashed into a crater. Although it is very shallow, it is obvious that this stone is not too small.

And there were only guard sergeants around, and no one else except them!

Hu Hai was very angry.

I just ordered you to go to the road, but you actually dare to throw stones at me, this is amazing!
He glared at Li Chao angrily, but Li Chao was already out of his mind.

"General," he said as if he was dreaming, "no one has ever thrown a stone."

There was a "boom" and another muffled sound, but this time it came from the head of the scout on the side.

Hu Hai slammed his helmet on the ground and said angrily: "This is not throwing stones. See for yourself, such a big stone is no bigger than your thumb..."

His voice suddenly paused, and he looked suspiciously at the strange stone on the ground.

The stones are crystal clear and look like gems.Hu Hai bent down in surprise and took the stone directly in his hand.

The next moment, he suddenly froze.

This stone was cold to the touch. It was obviously not a stone, but a hailstone!
"How could there be such big hail..." He subconsciously prepared to straighten his waist and raise his head, but suddenly he realized what was happening.

He suddenly let out a strange scream and hurriedly prepared to pick up his helmet and put it on. However, in a hurry, he couldn't find where he had smashed the helmet just now.

There was a "thud" sound of a hard object hitting his forehead. Hu Hai suddenly let out a scream, and a wisp of bright red suddenly appeared on his forehead.

Only then did he realize that the "dong-dong" sounds all around him had become loud, and the neighing sounds of war horses came one after another.

Countless voices of surprise rang out from the fog, and it was obvious that Hu Hai was not the only one who was hit by the hail.

"Enemy attack!"

"It's not an enemy attack, it's hail falling from the sky!" "Where is my helmet!" He covered his wound and spoke in confusion.

"Young Master, here is your helmet!" A scout bent down and handed over his gorgeous helmet.

"Very good." Hu Hai reached out and took off the iron helmet from the opponent's head. Regardless of the opponent's confused look on the face holding the leather helmet, he put it on his head upright, and then turned to look around.

The surroundings were also shrouded in fog, and nothing could be seen.

But Hu Hai knew that where he couldn't see, there must be a lot of greenery at this time.

Because it’s mid-May, and it’s almost the hottest time of the year!

Why is it hailing?

Moreover, it is so big!

The momentum is so strong!
In just a short moment, the hailstones had already fallen into pieces!There was a burst of crunching sounds like exploding beans, one after another.

"Clap clap clap clap..."

Crystal clear hail fell to the ground like meteors, and the whole earth seemed to shake, as if a giant dragon was turning over under its feet.

Several horses pulling the chariot neighed and fell to the ground. There were screams and the roar of the chariot wheels, followed by a loud noise, the screams of the soldiers, and the whine of the horses.

Apparently one of the horses was frightened by the hail, causing the chariot to lose control and collide.

However, Hu Hai no longer had the intention to pay attention to these. He stood blankly under the hail that was like the Milky Way falling straight from the sky, feeling extremely cold to the bones!

Not just physically, but also mentally.

At present, the Weiwei Army is located on the mountain road, surrounded by fog, making it impossible to advance or retreat.

Although Hu Hai already had an iron helmet on his head at this time, and if he wanted to, he could wear iron armor now. Even hailstones as big as a finger would not be able to penetrate the armor and injure him.

However, Hu Hai did not feel any sense of security at all.

Because he could clearly see that in the hail, behemoths as big as chickens, or eggs, would occasionally appear!

It’s not like Hu Hai has never seen hailstones before, but this is the only one he’s ever seen in his life!
Can my own armor really withstand such a big hailstone?
Hu Hai was in a daze, but Li Chao finally came to his senses.

He roughly kicked the soldiers on Hu Hai's chariot out of the chariot, quickly drew his sword, cut off the tether ropes of the horses, clasped the chassis of the chariot with both hands, and suddenly exerted force.

With a roar, the heavy chariot was flipped sideways by Li Chao. Li Chao's teeth were stained with blood and he shouted: "General, hurry up and take shelter temporarily!"

Hu Hai came to his senses instantly and quickly got into the bed of the military chariot. The bed was neither wide nor deep. Hu Hai was wearing leather armor, so it was extremely inconvenient to squat down, and it was even more disrespectful to the dignity of a young son.

However, Hu Hai could no longer care about so much at this time. He reluctantly squatted down and listened to the sound of hail hitting the chariot, feeling a little at ease.

And Li Chao blocked Hu Hai directly with his body. Hu Hai swept away his previous anger and sincerely praised: "Captain Qi is indeed loyal and brave, like a father!"

Only then did he have the intention to care about the situation around him.

It was already freezing cold all around, and even the fog began to become thinner, apparently because the cold air caused the fog to freeze.

At this time, the hail was overwhelming, and the ground was covered with white flowers.

"Captain Qi," he said hesitantly, "have you ever heard that evil dragons can not only make clouds but also drop hailstones?"

Li Chao was trying to endure it. Although he was wearing three layers of heavy armor and a serious iron helmet on his head, he could still withstand the hail.However, countless hailstones hit his head heavily, which still made him feel frightened.

He reluctantly spoke: "I know that a dragon can make clouds and a dragon can make rain. This is the duty of a dragon."

"As for the hailstorm in summer..." He paused suddenly before continuing, "I don't know!"

Hu Hai never noticed that Li Chao's words were not true. He sighed with worry on his face: "It would be great if the CRRC government ordered this."

"An order from CRRC?" Li Chao was stunned.

"Yes, if the CRRC government orders this, we can naturally find a countermeasure for us."

Although he was eccentric, he respected Zhao Gao very much. After all, Zhao Gao worked hard and planned for him, and he saw everything.

In his opinion, Zhao Gao is the most knowledgeable person in the world, and he is full of wisdom and tricks, and everything in the world seems to be in his mind.

"What kind of countermeasures?" Li Chao was a little confused.

Hu Hai glanced at him and said unhappily: "Of course it's about killing the dragon!"

"If the CRRC government order comes with us on stage this time, how can the heavy fog prevent us from hiding?" He glanced at Li Chao reproachfully: "Now, we have to wait for the hail to stop."

Li Chao was speechless.

He didn't know that Hu Hai was still thinking about killing the dragon in his mind at this time. After the hailstorm, although the guards all had triple heavy armor, the hail could not penetrate them, but the armor on the war horses did not cover the whole body.

Horse armors are all made of leather, and only the head and chest are protected by bronze sheets.

The war horse must have suffered heavy losses at this time. Although it may not be fatal, it is inevitable that it will be scarred.

Naturally, a wounded horse cannot pull a chariot. If there is no chariot, how can one shoot a dragon?

However, Zhao Gao is right. If the CRRC government order is here, there may be a way.

At this moment, a sergeant ran over despite the hail.

He held a piece of cloth in his hand and shouted at the top of his lungs: "General of the side, captain of the cavalry, there are loud arrows from the audience and the silk books are sent to the army!"

Hu Hai was overjoyed: "Get it quickly!"

And Li Chao was also overjoyed. He was worthy of being an official of CRRC, and everything was indeed in his mind!

He excitedly took the cloth, ignoring the hail on his head, and opened it quickly, and a line of words came into view.

"Young son, don't worry. This mirage is all illusory. I have ordered the sergeant to point the direction with a ringing arrow, so you should go quickly."

He suddenly froze on the spot, while Hu Hai on the side couldn't wait any longer and grabbed the cloth with his hands.

The next moment, his expression suddenly changed. He directly wiped a piece of cloth on his forehead and roared: "Shoot this piece of cloth back down the mountain, aim and shoot!"

"Ask Zhao Gao if my blood is a mirage!"

At this moment, he felt blood welling up in his heart.

The blood is pouring out of my head. Are you telling me it's a mirage or an illusion?

I have an illusory saying about the thief who seduces the wife, I don’t know if I should say it or not!
