On the third day when Zhang Liang and Boss Long arrived in Bolangsha, it was another cloudy day.

Although there was no rain in the sky, the wind was blowing.

Black crows were circling and flying in the sky, croaking from time to time, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense in the ears of the two of them.

After breakfast, the two of them cleaned up the traces in the cave. It was not until the end of the day that the two of them left the cave and headed towards the official road.

Zhang Liang thought that after today's farewell, the two of them might never see each other again, so he couldn't help but feel sad and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.

Boss Long chuckled, looked at him and said, "Just do it if you don't accept it. Don't worry about life or death. Don't worry about it, sir."

Zhang Liang shook his head and said in a solemn voice: "Today's arrival includes not only 10,000 but also 5,000 troops. I will wait for your signal and light the fire from behind."

Boss Long nodded: "It hasn't rained these days, we poured kerosene under the straw, and with the wind..."

Zhang Liang sighed, gritted his teeth and said, "I hope God will fulfill my wishes."

After saying this, the two of them clasped hands and said goodbye, and walked towards the official road one after the other.

"If the deadline does not come, we will withdraw and come back tomorrow."

After not walking far, Zhang Liang turned around and said loudly: "No one can say for sure on this matter, we all have different minds."

Boss Long waved to him, turned and left.

Both of them were hiding by the official road in advance, just for the last moment.

There is probably too much that needs to be said. According to the chariot rules of the Qin Dynasty, the emperor drove six chariots. Zhang Liang also inquired clearly about the chariots that the King of Qin rode.

Coupled with Boss Long's natural power, it only took one strike, and the two ministers of the imperial army had already fled near the official road before they could recover.

They didn't know how long the ambush would last, so both of them prepared enough dry food and water.

There is no rain in spring and the temperature is pleasant, which is the perfect weather for ambush and killing.

At least Zhang Liang thinks so.

The two of them were two miles apart, one behind the other. Zhang Liang had calculated that according to today's wind conditions, as long as the big man made a single blow, the Imperial Army would be in chaos.

At this time, he lit the straw on the roadside, and the wind helped the fire, and with the addition of kerosene, the official road, which was two miles long, would be enveloped in thick smoke and flames.

It was the best time for the two of them to escape. This was both their clear plan and their secret plan.

It was two people who endured the eagle's endurance in the spring.

Until almost noon, there was still no guard of honor from the King of Qin on the official road.

But less than five miles away from where the two men were ambush, a powerful and suffocating aura had already appeared not far away.

Flags and flags fluttered, chariots and horses rumbled, and the endless chariots and chariots slowly appeared on the official road.

In front were the spies and the Imperial Guards who were opening the way, and then the Imperial Guards in armor.

Left Prime Minister Li Si was in a rare good mood today. He abandoned his carriage and rode on horseback, chatting with General Meng Yi.

The CRRC ordered Zhao Gao and his son Hai to lie down in the carriage. One of them stretched out his head and glanced at the scenery from time to time, while the other closed his eyes and fell asleep, waiting for King Qin's call.

On the long official road, a large area of ​​darkness was filled with officials and imperial troops who accompanied the king on his tour.

The official road was on an upward slope. Although it was not steep, it was inconvenient for the large group of people to move forward, so the speed became slower.

Fortunately, King Qin did not rush everyone, and no one could guess the emperor's thoughts. Perhaps in his opinion, he just needed to get to Bolangsha before dark.

The Forbidden Army walked along the official road in silence, with only the horses neighing from time to time and the crows hovering in the sky roaring.

Li Si on horseback whispered to General Yi: "General, why are there crows circling in the sky? Isn't this a good sign?"

Meng Yi, who was wearing armor and looking upright, looked up at the sky, thought for a while and replied: "Perhaps they want to wait for us to leave and go to eat carrion somewhere in the wasteland?"

Li Si frowned and said softly: "It's incredible! This seems to be the first time we have encountered such a situation along the way."

Meng Yi laughed and said: "We have five thousand forbidden troops. Who in the world has the ability to dare to collide with Qin's forbidden troops in broad daylight?!"

Li Si's expression became solemn. He had no power to restrain the chicken. Even if something happened, he could only rely on General Meng.

Looking at the crows still circling in the sky, Li Si sighed softly.

I knew in my heart that it would be better to stay in the imperial city.

Because he remembered what he said one day when he was discussing Taoism with the Master, and now that he thought about it, it couldn't be better than this.

…

And it was Li Xiuyuan and Xiao Hei in the imperial city.

On that day, before noon, the master came to No. 47 in a carriage to get some drinks.

Looking at Xiao Hei sitting in a daze at the counter, he asked: "Xiao Hei, did you read "Poetry" carefully when you woke up this morning?"

Xiao Hei shook his head and said with a smile: "Teacher, Xiao Hei was practicing his sword this morning and forgot to read "Poetry"."

The Master was stunned for a moment and then said with a smile: "Three Hundred Poems. If you don't know how to study it, you won't be able to express your thoughts clearly when something happens, and others won't be able to understand what you mean."

Xiao Hei nodded, passed in front of the master with a swipe, and ran towards the yard behind.

Sitting quietly at the counter, Li Xiuyuan clasped his hands and asked, "Master, why do you have time to come here today?"

The Master smiled and said: "Drink a bowl of wine when you are free. It doesn't matter how old the flowers are, how old the moon is."

Li Xiuyuan was startled when he heard this, then reached out to pick up a bowl and placed it on the counter. He then bent over and poured a spoonful of wine into the vat, then slowly poured it into the bowl.

While he was talking, Xiao Hei had already grabbed the bamboo slips and came out of the backyard, passed in front of the master again, ducked into the counter.

I was about to spread out the bamboo slips and recite the "Poetry" on it, but I was stopped by the Master.

The Master sighed, looked at Xiao Hei and said, "Get up early tomorrow and remember to read "The Rites" again."

Xiao Hei shook his head and asked, "Teacher, why is this happening?"

The Master smiled and laughed: "You read "Li", how will you stand in the world when you grow up? Didn't the teachers in the academy teach you this principle?"

Xiao Hei shook his head: "It seems that the teaching has not reached this point yet. Xiao Hei will read "Li" tomorrow. Don't worry, teacher."

Li Xiuyuan picked up the tea cup and said with a faint smile: "Xiao Hei, it seems that you have to learn more about life from Master Haosheng."

Xiao Hei nodded in agreement and then read in the book himself.

The master picked up the bowl on the counter and took a big sip, and smiled knowingly: "A day with wine is like a spring with flowers, which makes people happy."

Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly: "You can be happy with wine, but I didn't expect that Master thought the same way... I wonder when that guy Zhang Liang will come back?"

"When he has had enough fun and gone crazy, he will come back naturally. Why are you worried about him?"

The master took another sip of wine, pointed at Xiao Hei and said, "You have time, why not teach Xiao Hei how to learn the six arts well."

Li Xiuyuan sighed and said: "My younger brother keeps talking about gods and monsters all day long. I don't know if it was the gentleman in the academy or the classmate who taught him."

"Concerning the world of gods and ghosts, what do you think, Master?"

For some reason, Li Xiuyuan suddenly remembered what happened that day when he went to find Wuxin Jasmine and went under Jiuyou to find King Qin Guang.

The master put the bowl in his hands, knocked on the counter gently and said, "I haven't even thought clearly about the meaning of life in this world, so how can I think about ghosts, gods, and strange things?"

Li Xiuyuan was startled when he heard this, and then smiled and said: "Isn't it true that you don't say anything and have strange powers that confuse your spirit?"

The Master nodded and replied, "That's what I mean."

Li Xiuyuan smiled: "Then I have to cook a piece of meat and treat you to a drink."

…

How long the road is, is exactly what Li Si is thinking about at the moment.

Looking at Meng Yi next to him, Li Si thought for a while and asked: "The master of the academy said that he has strange powers and chaotic spirits, but today's scene made me feel a breath of death coming to my face."

General Meng was startled, and quickly corrected him: "Sir, please stop talking nonsense, be careful and listen to your Majesty, and you will be punished for the crime of deceiving the public with your monstrous words."

Li Si shook his head and said to himself: "The more taboo some things are, the more it means they once existed or have always been around us."

General Meng shook his head and replied helplessly: "You can shut the door and think about it in your house, but you must never say such things in front of others."

Li Si sighed and said unwillingly: "I once persuaded Young Master Su to go on patrol with the king, but he has a very stubborn temper. This has allowed others to take advantage of him."

General Meng turned his head and glanced at the chariot behind him, then sighed: "I have also advised the young master, but he is deeply influenced by Master's Confucianism..."

"Confucianism and Taoism can govern a country. The king naturally understands this truth, but there are some things that we must take precautions against before they happen, otherwise we will suffer from them one day."

Li Si, who had always been at odds with Zhao Gao, had no idea that his unintentional remark would turn out to be a prophecy.

Young Master Hai in the chariot did not know that the Prime Minister Zuo and General Meng were talking about him in front of him. At this moment, his mind had already flown to the legendary East China Sea.

Zhao Gao, who was looking at the man in front of him with his eyes closed, asked: "Master Zhao, my father said that there are gods on the sea. Is it true?"

Zhao Gao replied calmly: "That matter, you don't need to think about that now. You should consider your own affairs first, serve your father well, and let him see your benefits."

Young Master Hai put down the car curtain he was holding in his hand, looked back at Zhao Gao, who still had his eyes closed, and sighed. He didn't know whether it was the sigh of the gods on the sea, or he was entangled in the troubles in the imperial city.

Zhao Gao didn't want to say more, maybe in his opinion, it would be wrong to say more at this time.

The rain hasn't come yet, so he doesn't need to open the umbrella hidden behind him. He just needs to remember to always keep an umbrella hidden behind him to protect him from the wind and rain.

As for the young master Hai in front of him, as long as he doesn't cause too much trouble, everything is under control.

In the sky, dark clouds, which were already somewhat hazy, gradually piled up and became more and more numerous.
