Chapter 13 Ghost Valley
At noon, the sun was shining brightly.

On the official road leading from Xianyang to Hangu Pass, two figures, one big and one small, are moving slowly. If someone is careful again, they will find that the steps of the two people, one big and one small, are exactly the same. The coordination is almost ghostly.

"Master, there seems to be some voice." The relatively short figure said.

"Listen carefully to what the sound is." The relatively tall figure said.

The boy stopped, stopped to listen, and said after a while, "It sounds like the sound of horseshoes, and it's getting closer."

"Can you tell how many people there are?" The larger figure was an old man.

"I can't hear it." The boy shook his head and said.

"It should be three thousand horses, or three thousand and one horses to be precise," said the old man.

"Master, can you even hear this?" The young man looked surprised. He might be able to hear the approximate number, but it would be too exaggerated to be able to hear the fraction.

"It's not heard, it's analyzed." The old man said lightly.

"analyze?"

"Yes, analysis. There is a limit to the ability of the human body. Even my master, I can't really tell the specific number of an army through the sound, but the brain can help us analyze it."

"How does the master analyze it?" the boy asked.

"The soldiers and horses coming from Xianyang are all cavalry. There is no other family except Mengshi's fire cavalry. There were three thousand fire cavalry stationed in Xianyang Palace before, and four thousand were brought to Hangu Pass by Meng Ao a few days ago. , the remaining ones who can move freely are only three thousand."

"What about the last person?"

"Of course he is someone who can command the fire cavalry, disciple, who do you think that person will be?" The old man asked a new question while answering the question.

"Meng Ao is currently in Hangu Pass, and Meng Wu is now serving as a lieutenant in Xianyang. Naturally, it cannot be these two people. The rest who can command this fire cavalry can make King Qin feel at ease. It seems that King Qin himself is the only one, but it will be Him?" The boy hesitated.

"Apprentice, you can delete the last sentence, that is the King Qin himself." The old man looked at the young man with kindness, and he was very satisfied with this apprentice.

"Really? But now Hanguguan already has a Xiangguo, and then went to a general, and now a Qin king is going to go. Is the five-nation coalition really so terrible?" the young man wondered.

"The five-nation coalition is not scary at all. What is terrible is the next outcome of the five-nation coalition."

"Uh, but, master, should we avoid it, the voice is getting closer and closer." The young man struggled.

"No, as a teacher, I want to meet this King Qin and see what kind of person he is? He is another King Wu of Qin or King Zhao of Qin." The old man said meaningfully, with a twinkle in his eyes. Light, the name of light is wisdom.

Not far behind the two, a group of cavalry escorted a carriage and galloped along the official road, and the sentry cavalry of the former army naturally spotted an old man and a young man in front of them.

The anomaly in front soon fell into Ying Zheng's ears. People who can walk unhurriedly in front of the army are either fools or masters. As for fools, there is a possibility of two fools appearing at the same time. Extremely low, but it is more likely to be a high-level person. After all, the world once said that the elderly and children should not be messed with, and the two people in front of them just fit this point.

However, an expert?So what can an expert do? It's just playing tricks.

Therefore, Ying Zheng who got the news did not order to stop the march, but galloped towards the direction of the two people in front at a constant speed.

"Master, if we don't hide, we may be hit." Hearing the sound of hooves getting closer, the boy panicked.

"Not in a hurry, not in a hurry." The old man smiled calmly, and then said: "But King Qin, old man Guiguzi pays homage to him."

Although the distance was still far away, Guiguzi's voice still reached Yingzheng's ears, and what was even more frightening was that he seemed to be the only one who heard it.

Guiguzi?Ying Zheng was taken aback, Guiguzi was in front of him?Why is he here?

However, what are you trying to do to Gulai?Deterrence?Or do you want me to stop and greet you?Gai Nieweizhuang's show operation really has a teacher.

Unfortunately, I don't want to cooperate today.

Ying Zheng picked up a pen and wrote a handwriting, and handed it out the car window. He thought of a good idea.

The instant of time has brought the fire cavalry closer to Guiguzi's master and apprentice.

"Master, we have to hide for a while, we are about to bump into each other." Gai Nie's face was covered with cold sweat.

"Don't panic, I can't hit you." Guiguzi's wrinkles were still stretched wide.

"Master, those people seem to be speeding up." Ge Nie couldn't help but grasp the hilt of his sword.

Guiguzi also hesitated at this time. Could it be that his prediction was wrong?
Gai Nie looked at the fire cavalrymen who were getting closer, instinctively felt the threat, and subconsciously drew out his dagger.

Seeing this, Guiguzi quickly stopped Gai Nie.

The fire cavalry not far away had already raised their crossbows at this time.

Guiguzi wanted to hide subconsciously, but he relaxed again when he saw the thing shot from the crossbow of the fire cavalry. Fortunately, it was not a crossbow.

A large net was drawn towards Guiguzi's master and apprentice, and in a blink of an eye, the master and apprentice had become fish caught in the net, and the four riders pulled the four corners of the net and ran forward.

They finally don't have to walk.

Ge Nie looked at the master who was caught in the fishing net with him, his face was full of resentment.

Guiguzi looked at his apprentice in embarrassment, but he still pretended to be relaxed and said, "What I said, I can't hit you."

"But master, you didn't say it would happen." Gai Nie became even more resentful.

"Isn't it because of you? You drew your sword for nothing, and made others think that we were a threat. Fortunately, I asked you to take the sword back in time. Otherwise, it would not be this net, but a crossbow arrow that shot at us." Guiguzi said seriously.

Gai Nie was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he found that what the master said was very reasonable, and couldn't help but feel very guilty, feeling that he had dragged the master down.

"Sorry, master."

"Remember, don't be so impulsive in the future." Guiguzi taught.

"Remember, but, master, what should we do now?" Ge Nie asked.

"It's okay, that's it. This may just be a joke made by King Qin and Wei Shi, so it's not serious." Guiguzi replied.

Hangu Pass is [-] miles away from Xianyang. Although the mounts of the fire cavalry are all good horses, it is impossible to enter Hangu pass in a short time. In fact, the fire cavalry of Ying Zheng left the day before yesterday It was Xianyang, and he had only marched five hundred miles in a day and a half, and he would not be able to arrive at Hangu Pass until tomorrow, but he did not expect that he would meet Guiguzi's master and apprentice halfway, and this pair of master and apprentice seemed to be a little different. normal.Is there something wrong with my memory?Ying Zheng, who was dozing in the carriage, thought secretly.

As the sky darkened, when Ge Nie was about to vomit, the fire cavalry finally stopped marching and began to set up camp.

And Ying Zheng also saw this pair of master and apprentice.
