Seeing that the guard ignored him and didn't care, Thief Zhi continued with a smile:
"Are you from Zhao Guo HD?"
"Huh?" The guard looked at Thief Zhi in surprise.
He is indeed from Zhao, but the question is... how did the prisoner find out.
When Thief Zhi saw that the guard was beginning to take the bait, the smile on his lips became even wider, and he continued to lie:
"Your right arm was injured in the battle, and it's not working properly now. It has attacks from time to time."
"You are good at martial arts, but you are not appreciated by your superiors. You are still a low-level officer and have never been promoted."
Every time Thief Zhi said something more, the shock in the guard's eyes grew even more, because everything the other party said was basically correct.
Looking at the guard who was so shocked that he was speechless for a moment, Thief Zhi asked with a smile:
"Are you curious how I know so much about you?"
"Hehe, it's actually very simple." Thief Zhi said with a whisper, "Just observe carefully."
"From yesterday to today, I saw you rubbing your right arm more than once, with a very uncomfortable expression. It must be a recurrence of an old injury."
"Secondly, although Zhang Han is determined that I can't escape, so he only leaves you to guard him, but he can't just arrange a rookie to guard me, a 'top VIP'. Your strength must be very outstanding in the army.
.”
"But you are wearing the uniform of a junior officer."
"You are capable, but you don't get promoted. Naturally, you are ostracized by your superiors."
After listening to Thief Zhi's explanation, the guard felt much calmer.
The unknown is the scariest thing. Once you know the reason, it's not a big deal. It's just that the other party has observed some of your own information.
Once you enter the Fang Prison, it is basically impossible to get out. If he finds out, he will know. There is no telling how many days this guy can survive.
However, Thieves Zhi's face suddenly changed at this time. He no longer had the playful smile before, but instead showed a sad look, and said in a heavy tone:
"As for how I can tell that you are from the Zhao country... of course it's because I am also from the Zhao country!"
"How can people from the State of Zhao not recognize people from the State of Zhao..."
Robber Zhi's voice at this time was low and obscure, showing the desolate state of mind of a man whose country was subjugated, and instantly aroused the empathy of the guards.
It has only been more than ten years since the fall of the Zhao Kingdom. Many people still miss their homeland, and not only the old nobles of the Zhao Kingdom, but also many common people miss it.
This guard is also one of this type of people. Even because he has been wandering around in other places during these years as a soldier, his nostalgia for his homeland is also superimposed on his longing for his homeland, which is stronger than others - of course, this is mainly because
Everyone's life under Qin's hands was not very satisfactory. If life had been better, not many people would miss it.
You see, after the Qing Dynasty fell, not many serious people missed it.
Another reason is that Tao Zhi's emotions are so well controlled that people can't tell that he is talking nonsense - he is not from Zhao at all!
Uh... to be precise, it might be.
Because as an orphan raised by his master, he didn't know which country he was from. It could be Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, Qin.
If calculated according to his master's place of origin, he should be... from the Lu country. However, the Lu country died early. When he grew up, the grass on Lu Qinggong's grave was so high that he had no idea.
As for why we can tell that the guard is from HD Zhao... it's purely a coincidence.
As a thief, observation is very important. Thieves can distinguish the characteristics of many things that ordinary people take for granted.
It just so happens that this guard has a characteristic unique to HD people, and it just so happens that Thief Zhi can really recognize this characteristic, that is - the gait characteristic.
Zhuangzi's Qiu Shui Chapter records the story of a young man from the State of Yan who went to the State of Zhao to learn to walk, which is the origin of the allusion "Learning to Walk in Handan".
What Zhuang Zhou expressed through this story will not be stated here. The unique gait of HD people is indeed famous in the seven countries, otherwise the dancers there would not be unique and famous all over the world.
So right now, Thief Zhi is just acting as a guard.
Seeing that the guard's emotions had been successfully mobilized by Thief Zhi, it was probably because he had become accustomed to obeying orders over the years, so he kept silent and refused to comment on what Thieves Zhi said.
But this is considered the default.
Pirate Zhi was overjoyed, knowing that his KFC plan had been basically successful, so he quickly struck while the iron was hot and continued to lament:
"I know you don't believe me and you must think I'm lying to you, and I understand."
"I'm not talking to you so much just to build a relationship with you. After all, you haven't let go of my ability at all. Getting closer to you can't change my situation."
"I just want to remind you for the sake of my compatriots."
"Do you know why that follower, that is, your General Zhang, obviously values me very much, but just locks me in this so-called luxury cell at the bottom, and only uses a cage to imprison me?"
"Because he doesn't care if I run away, or he knows that I won't run away."
"I was caught here on purpose to explore the way to save my friends. Soon my other friends will come in to save us."
"My name is the King of Thieves. Maybe you haven't heard of it, but you know from your general's attitude towards me that I am very important to him."
"Friends of people like me are naturally not simple, and I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. They are all top-notch masters, much better than me."
Thief Zhi was full of witty words, and he continued to fool the guards with truthful words, and his tone became more and more seductive and urgent:
"When they arrive, how do you think Zhang Han can deal with them with his strength?"
"Perhaps you think that my friends in the Tooth-gnawing Prison can't find any tricks, but in fact, when we planned the operation, we knew that Zhang Han would make arrangements in advance and wait for me to take the initiative to step in."
"But we are still here. Coming here means that we are sure to escape. After all, the Fang Prison is just a prison. It will not really eat people."
"But Zhang Han must have his confidence and his assurance, so...he imprisoned me here, at the bottom and deepest part of the prison."
"His purpose is very straightforward. He plans to wait for my rescuers to come, and then directly seal off this area and trap us to death!"
"As long as he ensures that we can't escape, he will have plenty of time to figure out how to deal with us, or even just delay. Naturally, we won't be able to hold on for long without food or water."
"But... what should you do?"
"I recognize you as my compatriot, so I told you this in advance. If I don't tell you and you don't know anything, when my friends come, you will definitely die at their hands inexplicably."
"Do you think Zhang Han will ask you to evacuate in advance?" Tao Zhi's tone became excited, and he grabbed the railing with both hands and reminded in a sharp voice, "It's definitely impossible!"
"What if asking you to evacuate early ruins his plan?"
"He is a lackey of the Qin court. He doesn't care about the lives of people from the Six Kingdoms like you and me!"
