Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 241 Even the horse died

It was rainy when Lu Wei left Daze Mountain, and it rained again after arriving at Songhai.

Although you can use the internal energy to keep yourself dry, it’s not bad to let the rain wash away the blood on your body~
An hour ago, in the mountains and forests outside Songhai City, Lu Wei met a special team. Judging from the smell, they smelled like the Yin Yang family.

The master of the hall did not want to get entangled with these weird people, but there was a weird-looking little girl in front of the opponent's team. She clapped her hands and sent two men to capture him.

There was no need to say anything more. Lu Wei drew his sword out of its sheath and killed all the problematic team.

During the killing process, he discovered that the identity of this team was indeed related to the Yin Yang family. There were actually several people among them who knew the Yin and Yang hand seals and were very powerful.

But even the most mysterious sect among the philosophers will die if their heads fall off.

Among them, the little girl who was the culprit looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. Her appearance was as delicate as jade, but her strength was very average. She couldn't even take a single blow from Mr. Lu and was cut off. That white and tender lotus root was cut off. arm.

The young girl who lost the ability to resist was tortured using the Soul-Draining Technique, and learned that their identities really did not belong to the disciples of the Yin-Yang family, but they were inseparable from the Yin-Yang family: this convoy was the Zhou royal family princes mentioned by the moon god. The descendants of the imperial dynasty bear the surname Ji.

The girl in front of her is actually the cousin of the Moon Goddess.

Looking carefully, Lu Wei saw some traces of the Moon Goddess girl from the face that was no longer arrogant but only frightened. He drew his sword and gave the opponent a good blow.

These people were ordered by the family elders to escort several special Yin-Yang formation materials to the south of Songhai, where the construction of the mirage had already begun to build the shell and assemble some parts.

In this part, Yueshen mentioned to Lu Wei that in a hidden location in the south of Songhai City, the Qin State secretly set aside a large area in a private name as a shipyard for the construction of mirages through the relationship between Prime Minister Qi and Guo Hou.

There is no elder of equal status in the Yin Yang Family headquarters to take charge. It is expected that at least one person from He Bo and Shan Gui will be responsible for supervising the construction work.

But the actions of this team named Ji were unknown to the Moon God. Calculating the time, this team should have set off when Sun, Moon and Star arrived in Chu State.

In the Luna Project, she originally wanted to attack Dong Huang only after the mirage was built and the hiding Ji family members entered with the treasures and books belonging to the Zhou royal family.

Hall Master Lu fully supports this plan: by then the treasures of the Zhou royal family, the Yin Yang Family, the Mirage, and even the entire world will be in his hands.

This time, as requested by Fu Nian, I came to Songhai and met a team from the Ji family, and had a small friction with them. It was a coincidence.

But now that they were all killed, Lu Wei had no regrets. He only carefully dealt with each corpse to confirm that all witnesses were dead, and carefully treated the wounds of the deceased to avoid being found on his head. He unpacked the convoy's cargo.

Every piece of Onmyojitsu material is valuable, but taking them away or reselling them later is troublesome.

No matter what, these things are used to build your own mirage, and if you round them off, they become your own things.After examining and memorizing their shapes and appearances, the hall leader quickly left the place without moving the convoy at all.

Not long after we walked out, suddenly dark clouds and heavy rain came.This is good news. Such rain can wash away more subtle traces of crime scenes.

Later, the shipyard sent people to investigate, and it became more difficult to find the whereabouts of the murderer.

As for the Mirage shipyard, Lu Wei had no intention of going to see it now. Anyway, both the Moon God and the Star Soul would be able to take him on board the ship in the future. Now he just had to wait.

Went into the city soaked in the rain.

By the time Hall Leader Lu took a relaxing hot bath in the Songhai stronghold of Gonggongtang, the heavy rain came and went away quickly, and the weather suddenly became sunny again.

After sending a disciple to send a greeting card to Li Shiqi, who was chatting with his colleagues in the academy, and asking him to inform Xiaoshengxian Manor of his visit to Fu Nian in advance, Lu Weixin sat in the stronghold and waited.

Recently, King Jian of Qi's younger brother, Young Master, came to Songhai on vacation. He had been living in Xiaoshengxian Manor for many days, and he didn't know when he left.Before Tian Jiu left, Fu Nian, as the head of Little Saint Xian Manor, would definitely not have time to see him.

But what he expected was similar: Zhang Liang came back with Li Shiqi not long after the invitation was sent.

"Brother Lu, you're all right~" Zhang Liang said with a gentle smile, "Brother, the head brother is busy with important matters and can't get away for the time being, so I specially ordered Liang to come and stay with us for a few days."

"The ovary is out." Lu Wei and Feng Xiaoyu invited Zhang Liang into the house: "I didn't know about the young master's visit until I came to Sanghai. Brother Fu Nian, as the head of Xiaoshengxian Manor, is naturally busy, but I didn't see him at the right time. It is a superfluous act to pay my respects, and I have to bother my wife to make a trip."

"No, Brother Lu came here at the invitation of the head brother. There is something temporarily delayed at Little Sage Manor." Zhang Liang followed Lu Wei and sat down in the hall: "This visit to the royal family at Little Sage Manor is extremely troublesome. Therefore, the head brother had to deal with it for several days."

Zhang Liang took the tea from the disciple in a friendly manner, took a sip, met Hall Master Lu's curious gaze, and continued: "In addition to the official false visit of the young master, the grandson of the current King of Qi, 'An', is also here. "

"Gongsun An?" Lu Wei gave Li Shiqi a look, and the disciples serving in the hall withdrew one after another, leaving only the two of them talking alone: ​​"King Qi wants Tian to be settled in Confucianism?"

"Yes, if nothing else goes wrong, Gongsun An will enroll in Little Sage's Village this year." Zhang Liang nodded. It's not that Little Saint's Village has never recruited young men from various countries. For example, Han Fei, the ninth son of Korea, studied at Xunzi in the past. It's just that this enrollment Time is very delicate.

Fu Nian didn't have any special reaction to Xiaoshengxian Village recruiting a member of the Qi clan to study, and he quickly agreed after thinking about it for a while.

Xiaoshengxian Manor is not the Mohist family, and it will not happen that the head position of the Mohist family is taken away by the six royal families.

The reason why it has been delayed for so long is because of another problem:
Tian An is not young, a few years older than Zhang Liang. He has been discussing who he wants to be a disciple of for the past few days.

According to Fu Nian, Little Saint Xian Manor has been passed down to his generation. The teachers of the previous generation have basically retired, and the one with the highest seniority at the student level is his disciple as the leader.

Fu Nian himself didn't realize there was anything wrong with his new 'little disciple' who was slightly older. Zi Lu, a student of the former Confucian sage Confucius, was only nine years younger than him and had bullied him. He was also a disciple of Confucius. .

Even though his disciple was a grandson of Qi State, Fu Nian was still confident that he could be his teacher.

But Tian An didn't want to. He thought he was about the same age as Yan Lu and Zhang Liang, and wanted to be Fu Nian's junior brother, not Fu Nian's disciple.

"Senior brother didn't look very well at that time. Although he didn't express it clearly, the second senior brother and I knew him quite well, so we could tell." Zhang Liang shook his head and sighed: "The master passed away last year. The teacher respects him very much, and he is still sad to this day, but the grandson of Qi State wants the master brother to take over his disciples on his behalf."

Confucianism pays attention to respecting teachers, and Fu Nian is one of the best. Tian An's request would be nothing if he made it in normal times, but it is obviously inappropriate at this moment. "Brother Fu Nian is resolute. Even if King Qi agrees to admit Tian An to school because of his face, his excessive request will definitely not be accepted." Lu Wei nodded clearly and refused. Xiaoshengxian Village is the best in the world. The King of Qi would not have any objection to being a role model for scholars.

"As Brother Lu said, the head brother has taken Na Tian An around to visit the Confucian seniors in the past few days, in order to find a Confucian of the same generation as the teacher to accept as his disciple."

Zhang Liang said with a smile: "This is actually a way to train Gongsun Anxin. Although he doesn't like his excessive words, this person will eventually become a Confucian disciple. Senior brother will not be biased against him in teaching, and will still Try your best to help him achieve something."

Mr. Zhang San would say this, indicating that Fu Nian had actually found a teacher for Tian An, but before meeting the real master, he first let the boy accept a wave of harsh criticism.

"It seems that the Fu Nian Brotherhood will soon complete King Qi's commission."

Lu Wei skipped this topic, and based on his understanding of Zhang Liang, he tried to talk about the Chu State affairs that he had done his homework to have a common topic with the other party. Unexpectedly, as soon as he started, he was slapped by Mr. Zhang San with a smile. broken:
"Recently, the Haiyue Xiaozhu in Songhai City has a lot of 'Shark's Fin and Bear's Claw' in stock, so Xiaoshengxianzhuang has reserved a few. When Brother Lu arrived this time, Liang specifically asked for a quota from the head senior brother. Brother Lu and How about we go together to see the famous saying "The vast sea reflects the Taiyuan Mountains, and the shark's fin cooks the bear's paw"? "

"I've heard of the famous Qilu dish 'Shark's Fin and Bear's Claw' for a long time. When I first came to Songhai, I wanted to try it, but I couldn't go because I was short of money. This time I really benefited from Xiaoshengxianzhuang."

Zhang San, the fifth generation leader of the family, suddenly lost interest in the anti-Qin cause?

Lu Wei thought about the reason in his heart and agreed with a smile.

"Wrong, but it was Liang who took advantage of Brother Lu~" Zhang Liang stood up and raised his hand to signal him to go ahead.

Haiyue Xiaozhu is some distance away from the main city of Songhai. Guests going there usually go there by horse-drawn carriage, but because they have booked dinner, it is still early.

Lu Wei and Zhang Liang were both martial arts practitioners. They wanted to slowly take in the scenery along the way, so they walked together.

Halfway through, as to why Zhang Liang was suddenly not interested in Qin, the hall master simply asked directly without knowing the result.

"I know Brother Lu is curious." Zhang Liang's expression showed no surprise and he said gently: "The motherland is like a dream. As time goes by, people always wake up."

"Senior Brother Head has taught me a lot. I also understand that relying only on the strength of a few people is unable to compete with the general trend of the world. At present, the unification of the Qin State is unstoppable. Rather than resisting in vain, I think Let’s first see what a unified country looks like.”

"After the world is unified, will the war really end? Will the people really be stable?"

"Does the situation really exist where the people are enlightened and all nations are in harmony?"

"What kind of changes will that King of Qin bring to the world?"

"I want to take a look first and see clearly what the people really want before I make a decision about my future."

Speaking of this, Zhang Liang's eyes flashed with a trace of confusion and expectation: "Actually, compared to me, who has a firm reason to oppose Qin."

"Or maybe it's the King of Yan whose country was ruined and the Mohist who 'loved all living beings in the world'."

“Even to the quicksand that originated in old Korea.”

"Brother Lu is the leader of Gonggong Hall, the first farm hall in the farm. As expected, what is the reason why Brother Lu, the next leader of the farm family, will be anti-Qin?"

"Zifang really wants to know~"

When Zhang Liang turned his head and stared at her carefully, Lu Wei's heart remained unchanged and unchanged.

However, his expression still cooperated with his thinking. He stopped, pretended to touch his chin and thought for a few breaths, and said calmly: "The reason why Lu opposed Qin is just because I know: Zifang's beautiful yearning for a unified country and stability, and the common people Living and working in peace and contentment will never appear under the framework of Qin."

"I know the answer to the ovary problem first, so I will naturally make all preparations in advance and work tirelessly for it."

"Oh? I'd like to hear the details." Zhang Liang suppressed his smile and responded solemnly. He could see that Hall Master Lu's words were indeed sincere.

"This is not something that can be discussed in a few words or a few days. Rather than my explanation, Zifang should actually go out on a study tour and take a look." Lu Wei smiled and started walking again: "The unification of Qin will not be long. It will come true. Only by finding the answer to the ovary by yourself can you be firm in your choice, right?"

"Brother Lu is right." Zhang Liang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I have been hiding in Little Saint Xian Manor for so long, it's time for me to go out on a study tour."

"Sharp swordsmanship. The enemy killed them quickly, and only one of them."

At the location of the Ji family's convoy that Lu Wei killed, Hebo Shangui investigated the scene with a dark face.

These are the precious blood of Ji Chaoji's family, and they died here like this.

"Nothing was lost. It wasn't a planned ambush. It should be Yin'er's naughty character that provoked the wrong people."

He Bo strode over the corpses and came to the carriage. All the horses in the team were deliberately killed. Is this because the enemy was worried that 'old horses know the way'?
"I just said Yin'er shouldn't come out to cause trouble. Now it will only increase casualties!"

Shan Gui narrowed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "The only one with such skill in Songhai City is Fu Nian from Xiaoshengxian Village."

"Tianjie came to Songhai recently, and he may be a master of the Qi royal family." He Bo shook his head and added the possibility.

"Do you want to check?"

"Complete His Excellency Donghuang's mission first!"
