Saint Qin Batu

Chapter 10 The Gamble and the Crisis

Heixia was silent for a long time, and finally raised his head, looked at the old man Zhongyin and said, "I know the meaning of my old friend, but if the hatred of splitting the family can be resolved so easily, then I must be ashamed of my ancestors after I die." .”

Heixia thought for a long time, but he was still unwilling to let go of the demon in his heart.This is also human nature, Zhang Yi or the state of Qin caused great damage to the Mo family, and in future generations, it would be the revenge of destroying the family and seizing the wife.Not to mention that the current Warring States period attaches great importance to ancestors and temples, benevolence, righteousness and morality, even in later generations, it will be a situation of immortality.

"Since you can't let go of the prejudice in your heart, why don't we make a bet." The old man Zhongyin changed his tone again and said with a smile.

"What bet?" Hei Xia asked.

"I'm betting that Zheng'er can rule the world in the not-too-distant future, 30 years from now!" Zhongyin said excitedly, with strange brilliance in his eyes.

"What?! 30 years! How is this possible!" Heixia exclaimed excitedly. He knew that since the old man Zhongyin reported such a short period of 30 years so accurately, then the old man Zhongyin must have his own basis.

But even so, Heixia is hard to believe. 30 years is too short, so short that everyone in the world can't believe it.Recalling Ying Zheng's thin body and clever face in his mind, Hei Xia couldn't imagine how such a harmless young man would control the whole world 30 years later.

"Okay! I bet!" Heixia slammed the table, almost roaring.

"Fresh! If I lose, I will do my best to help you fight against Qin. Similarly, if you lose, you will lead the Mo family to serve Qin!" Zhongyin waved his hand, and a book that was still on the bookshelf not far away The scroll quickly landed on the table in front of the two of them.

Hei Xia remained silent, carefully looking at the content written on the silk scroll.Sure enough, the betting agreement and the betting money were clearly written on the silk script, and Heixia knew in his heart that the old man Zhongyin had already prepared for it.

Although he guessed in his heart that he was plotted against by the old man Zhongyin, his aloof heart would not allow him to go back on his word.Picking up the pen on the table, he quickly signed his name on the silk scroll and stamped his personal seal.

"Hahaha! Ji Hao, thank you old friend for presenting a generous gift to my beloved apprentice!" Zhongyin old man Ji Hao laughed loudly when he saw that the contract had been fulfilled.

"Hmph! Don't be complacent, destroying the Six Kingdoms in 30 years, just relying on him as a baby? Idiots talking about dreams!" Although Hei Xia knew that he was being calculated, he couldn't figure out how to destroy the Six Kingdoms in 30 years. , Is it just because he is the emperor star?

The old man Zhongyin carefully put away the silk book on which the contract between the two was written, and continued to smile and said, "Don't be angry, old friend. Maybe I'm old-eyed, my heart is oily, and I'm talking nonsense? Besides, even if I lose, I won't lose my temper." Saved your life and the inheritance of the Mo family, didn't it?"

"Hmph!" Heixia snorted coldly. Although he didn't care about his own life, if he could really preserve the inheritance of the Mo family in the last days of the Warring States Period, he wouldn't care about being insulted and betrayed by the world.

"If that's the case, then I won't stay any longer!" Heixia drank the tea in his teacup, got up and prepared to leave.

However, the old man Zhongyin grabbed his sleeve and said with a smile: "Don't worry, old friend, your business is over, and mine hasn't started yet?"

"Your business? What can you do?" Hei Xia asked suspiciously.

The old man Zhongyin let go of Heixia's sleeve, refilled the tea for Heixia, and asked with a smile, "How did my old friend guess Zheng'er's identity as the Emperor Star?"

Heixia looked at the old man Zhongyin, sat down anyway, held up his teacup, and said, "Don't forget, I am from Jinmo. Seven years ago, I heard the story of the 'Ba Xing' descending to Zhao."

Hei Xia put down the teacup in his hand and continued: "Although Zhao Wang added a new boy not long after, I have observed this boy more than once, he is too young!"

"Haha, it's better to say I'm stupid!" Zhong Yin said with a smile.

"Hmph!" Heixia grabbed Mo Mei who was on the table, and made a gesture to leave, but the old man Zhongyin quickly grabbed him and admitted his mistake in a low voice.

Of course, Heixia didn't really want to leave. Seeing the old man Zhongyin stepping down the steps, he lowered his eyebrows again and continued: "After several judgments, I am convinced that this so-called 'Baxing' Gongzi Yan is just a slave It’s just a child spoiled by King Zhao. In this way, I gradually forgot about it. Until one day, I met a person.”

"Taoist Tianzong, Beimingzi!" Old man Zhongyin narrowed his eyes.

"That's right, it's indeed Master Beiming." Heixia didn't deny it either, "He asked me about Mr. Yan at that time. I'm curious, how could the head of the Taoist Tianzong treat a little boy who only knows how to eat, drink and play?" The young master is interested. It was also suddenly that I thought of the 'Overlord Star'."

"Hehe, that is, he told you that it was an Emperor Star?" asked the old man Zhongyin.

Hei Xia nodded. Bei Mingzi's words really shocked him at the time. Even now, in retrospect, he is still a little shocked.Regarding Bei Mingzi's words, Hei Xia undoubtedly chose to believe. In addition to trusting the Taoist Tianzong's star-gazing technique, he also believed in Bei Mingzi's own strength.

Old man Zhongyin nodded, thought for a moment, and continued, "Although Bei Mingzi told you that it was the Emperor Star, how did you guess Zheng'er?"

Hei Xia gave a rare smile and said, "It's not that simple. There were not only a few sons of the Seven Kingdoms who were born in Zhao at that time. Can't we eliminate them one by one after a little research?"

"Then it's impossible to be so sure that it's Zheng'er?" Elder Zhong Yin was a little puzzled.

"Of course, Yingzheng's father at that time was just a concubine son of Qin State, and he was the most unfavorable one. I didn't doubt it was him. On the contrary, a year or two ago, I even thought it was Yan State Your son, Yan Dan."

"Indeed, at that time King Yan was still serving as a hostage in Zhao State, and Yan Dan was also born in Zhao State. The timing also coincides, and this year's son has also appeared to be quite smart." Old man Zhongyin nodded, but still looked puzzled. Wearing Hei Xia.

Seeing old man Zhongyin's puzzled expression, Heixia laughed happily, and cursed: "You're so smart and foolish all your life. I just happened to come to your house yesterday and saw that you wanted to take that Mr. Qin as your apprentice." His identity as the Emperor Star has been affirmed!"

After hearing Heixia's explanation, the old man Zhongyin smiled embarrassingly, and touched his forehead, feeling a little embarrassed.

Hei Xia was also very happy to see the old man make a fool of himself, and continued: "The only person in the world who has the ability to know the emperor star is you, who used to be the Zhou royal family offering wine, except for Tianzong. I have a good relationship with my family, and my ability to make faces is also outstanding. So I can't guess it yet, so I don't have to be this Mohist tycoon." After speaking, he continued to laugh.

After hearing Heixia's words, the old man Zhongyin did not laugh heartlessly together as usual, but restrained his expression and looked at Heixia seriously.

Hei Xia was frightened by the old man Zhongyin's expression. To be honest, he had never seen an old man Zhongyin with such a serious expression.

The old man Zhongyin said in a low voice: "I'm afraid you and I are not the only ones who know about the Emperor Star."

The black man was also taken aback, and then said solemnly: "Among the hundreds of schools, the Tianzong of the Taoist school has no ability to meet people, and the Renzong school is even incomplete in the method of star-gazing, so it shouldn't be them. Wan, but I have never heard of such a great talent. Confucianism and Legalism are more capable of politics, and military strategists are only capable of fighting, let alone famous and miscellaneous. It is difficult for Qin Black Ice Terrace?"

The old man Zhongyin shook his head, drank the tea in the cup, and said, "Old friend, what you said earlier is correct. However, if Qin Guo really knew Zheng'er's identity, he would still let him stay in Zhao The country suffers and suffers?"

Heixia nodded slightly, and asked puzzledly, "Who could it be?"

The old man Zhongyin squinted his eyes, exuding a terrifying aura all over his body, and said quietly: "Have you forgotten that group of people who stirred up the world's winds and clouds more than a hundred years ago, and their bodies were full of weirdness?"

Thinking about it carefully, Heixia shuddered and said with wide eyes, "The Yinyang family!"

"That's right, it's the group of extreme people separated from the Taoist school." The old man Zhongyin said coldly.

Those who have not been in touch with the Yin Yang family will not understand their horror.According to legend, after the ancestor of the Yin-Yang family rebelled against Taoism, he kept his name incognito and secretly accepted disciples.Gradually, Taoism downplayed his existence, and after the separation of heaven and man, this person was completely erased from the history of Taoism.

Until a hundred years ago, a school called Yin Yang School appeared.The Yin-Yang School has a lot of knowledge, such as celestial phenomena, alchemy, qi control, spells, etc., plus the basic illusion they practice, and other schools of the same level have almost never won against them.

Powerful things are always frightening, just like the state of Qin, all schools of thought are terrified of this new sect.As a result, the cooperation began among Zhuzibaijia.Although the Yinyang family is powerful, its military and political background in the six countries is far inferior to other schools of thought, and it is worse than the famous and miscellaneous schools.

The Yin-Yang family, which was constantly persecuted by the other schools of thought, chose bloody revenge. At that time, the leaders of the schools of thought were almost slaughtered by the Yin-Yang family.Although the Yin Yang family also paid a huge price, compared to the losses of other hundreds of families, they are almost negligible.Just when the other hundred schools gave up their prejudices and were about to truly eradicate the Yin Yang family, this weird school disappeared again.

"Then they already know Ying Zheng's status as the Emperor Star?" Heixia also drank the tea in his cup and asked.

"Maybe I don't know, maybe... I already know." Zhong Yin said with a worried expression on his face.

……

On the border of Zhaowei Kingdom, a fast horse galloped quickly, and soon disappeared into a dense forest...
