Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

Hearing the sounds outside the inner courtyard, Mo Jun said decisively: "Withdraw!"

Practicing martial arts is not cultivating immortals. Except for masters who specialize in martial arts, no matter how strong their internal and external skills are, the rest of them are still mortal bodies. Once shot through the heart by a strong bow and crossbow, they will still die.

Now, the inner courtyard is surrounded by more than 800 black-armored soldiers. As for the inner courtyard, except for the building under Mo Jun's feet, the rest of the inner courtyard has already been cleared.

That is to say.

Now if Li Xin's army outside fires a hail of arrows, there will be no shelter in the inner courtyard except for the building where Lord Mo is located. It will be like "catching a turtle in a urn".

Hearing Lord Mo's order.

Black Feather was the first to react, and with a flash of his figure, he withdrew back to the dining hall.

When Zhu Yeqing saw Black Feather retreating on the courtyard wall, he originally planned to turn around and run away, but as soon as he made a little move, he immediately discovered that at least a hundred powerful crossbows were pointing in her direction with flashing arrows.

Zhu Yeqing's figure suddenly froze.

the other side.

When Heiyu retreated to the dining hall, Xiong Er immediately stepped in front of the door. His huge body was like a solid door panel, blocking the door tightly.

"Mr. Gainey!"

Zhan Qin shouted from inside the door, but before Gai Nie could respond, another person, smelling of alcohol, flashed to the door.

The sudden figure almost made Xiong Eryi call him directly. Fortunately, at the critical moment, the figure shouted: "Wait, don't act in a hurry, I have something to say."

The black iron mace stayed a foot in front of Jiu Jian Chi's eyes. The strong wind blew his messy hair, which made Jiu Jian Chi sober up a little.

Everyone is also on high alert for this famous wandering swordsman in the world.

"What do you have to say?"

Zhan Qin didn't let Xiong Er remove the black iron mace placed on the opponent's neck, and spoke calmly from inside the door.

Jiu Jian Chi rubbed his hands, and his face that had some temperament at first looked a bit wretched for no reason at this moment. Then he just laughed and said to Lord Mo: "Hey~~What, this guy Sir, can you give me a way to survive?"

Seeing that the master's temperament on the other party disappeared in an instant, Mo Jun was also stunned for a moment.

But soon, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and he said: "How to survive? You can even escape from the palaces of the four kings, but now you can't escape from my little county governor's mansion?"

The Jiu Jian Chi said with a helpless smile: "I just went over there to steal some wine. Naturally, it won't attract too much attention from the palace guards. What's more, even in the palace, it is impossible to just mobilize a thousand elite soldiers to besiege. ah!"

Thinking of the densely packed crowd of more than 800 black-armored soldiers that he had just seen outside the courtyard, even the drunken swordsman couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation in his scalp.

What is the concept of a thousand elite soldiers?

This is almost the entire vanguard elite of the 10,000 regular army.

The wine-sword maniac thinks that he has extensive knowledge after having been in the world for many years. But he has never seen any country with so many elite soldiers guarding a county governor's mansion!

"Are you sure you want me to give you a way to survive? Don't you regret it?"

"Maybe!"

Jiu Jian Chi looked at Mr. Mo's black and white eyes across from him, and suddenly a bad premonition arose in his heart.

But thinking about it carefully, he seems to have no other choice now. According to the current strength of the troops surrounding the inner courtyard, Jiujianchi estimates that if he tries to escape, there is a 60% chance that he will be shot to death by random arrows, a 30% chance of being captured alive, and a 10% chance of being captured alive. There is a chance of escaping with serious injuries.

If it were a desperado, he might give it a try. After all, the 10% probability is already very high for Jianghu people.

But the problem is that Jiu Jian Chi is not a desperado.

The Jiu Jian Chi thinks that he has never offended anyone in all his years in the world, except for occasionally stealing some good wine. Moreover, he was still young and had never thought of going down so early to meet his unreliable master!

"Let him in!"

Hearing Jiu Jianchi's agreement, Mo Jun also issued an order, asking Xiong Er to let him in.

"Thank you!"

Jiu Jianchi thanked him, and then slowly stepped into the dining hall door.

However, the moment he stepped into the door with one foot, Jiu Jian Chi's expression instantly stiffened. Because the moment he entered the dining hall, a sword intent that even a wine-sword fanatic couldn't help but feel horrified suddenly locked onto his body.

This overbearing sword intention was not malicious, but just by its power, the wine swordsman couldn't help but feel the hair on his back stand up.

"Ah~~ Do I still have a chance to regret it now?"

"What do you think?"

Mr. Mo looked at him with a smile. Faced with Mr. Mo's gaze, Jiu Jianchi had no choice but to walk into the dining hall.

Until then.

Only then did the wine and sword fanatic see that there was a one-armed swordsman with a long sword hanging from his waist standing there quietly in the blind spot next to the dining hall door. His place was not only the blind spot of the door, but also the entrance to the dining room. The best position for the sword.

The Jiu Sword Maniac had no doubt that if he had ever had the idea of ​​'capturing the thief first, capture the king' and holding Lord Mo hostage, I am afraid that he would have become a ghost of this one-armed swordsman at this moment.

"Hello, senior...senior!"

Jiu Jian Chi faced Jian Jiuyuan's direction and tried his best to put on a flattering smile.

There was a smile on his face, but at this moment Jiu Jian Chi was about to curse in his heart.

insidious.

It's really insidious.

This guy has already reached this point, and he actually hid a trump card for himself.

And what the hell is going on in this county magistrate’s mansion?

The first two are outrageous enough, but the last hidden one is even more outrageous.

······

The duel between Gai Nie and Black and White Xuanjian is still going on. At this time, Gai Nie has only just started training, and his strength has only just begun to enter the first-class realm.

However, relying on Gui Gu's unique skills, it is not easy for Black and White Xuanjian to capture Gai Nie in a short time.

But when Zhuyeqing and Jiujianchi were subdued one after another, Black and White Xuanjian could only give up the desire to continue fighting, and said regretfully: "What a pity, it seems that our duel will be postponed again."

The words fell.

The black and white Xuanjian swords suddenly slashed out a black and white cross sword energy, forcing Gai Nie to retreat, and he jumped out of the courtyard wall.

Li Xin, who had been waiting outside the courtyard for a long time, saw Black and White Xuanjian appear, his eyes flashed sharply, and he shouted loudly: "Fire the arrow!"

call out!

call out!

call out!

For a first-rate master, it is actually not difficult to escape from the pursuit of a thousand elite soldiers. But if you want to escape from the encirclement that has been formed, the difficulty is completely different.

Black and white Xuanjian obviously understood this truth, so he didn't even have the slightest idea of ​​entangled with the black-armored soldiers. The moment he rushed out of the courtyard, he used his black and white swords to create an airtight sword net beside him.

In an instant.

A large number of sharp arrows broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.

But even so, three "fish that slipped through the net" still hit Black and White Xuanjian's body, and one pierced the chest and brought out a bloody light. The other two hit one in the shoulder and the other in the abdomen.

However, at the cost of being hit by three arrows, Xuan Jian finally managed to escape from the encirclement of the black armored soldiers. However, this was obviously of no use, because the moment he broke out of the encirclement, the second round of attacks followed. .

The front row of black-armored soldiers quickly launched a charge, while a hundred troops on each side surrounded them from both wings. It only took a few breaths to form a new encirclement.

This is the difference between an army with a commander and an army without a commander.

Once surrounded again.

Then Black and White Xuanjian really has no way to survive.

However, at this critical moment, a rope hook suddenly flew over from nowhere like a ghost. Then before Li Xin could react, Black and White Xuanjian grabbed the rope hook and instantly jumped into the air.

After a few ups and downs.

The person had quickly disappeared into the darkness.

"There is a response, chase!"

Seeing that someone actually took away the assassin he wanted to capture in front of him, Li Xin's expression suddenly darkened, he shouted, and then took the lead in chasing the opponent.

······

the other side.

Li Xin chased Xuanjian and only took away about 300 people, while more than 500 people stayed in the county governor's mansion in case of any eventuality.

"Sir, what should we do with this assassin?"

After Xuan Jian left, Mo Jun also walked out of the dining hall. He happened to meet a black armored soldier holding Zhu Yeqing in front of him, holding his hands and asking.

"This woman and that man will all be taken to the dungeon for custody first." Mo Jun glanced at Zhu Yeqing, then waved his hand.

The drunken swordsman behind him was immediately stunned: "Huh? No...why do I have to be imprisoned in the dungeon too?"

It's a pity that the black-armored soldiers obviously didn't mean to explain to Jiu Jian Chi. They just shackled him, lifted him up and dragged him towards the dungeon. Jiu Jian Chi's feet were hanging on the ground, and he could only kick and shout: "Lock him up." No problem, but remember to bring me wine, preferably good wine."

No one paid any attention to this living treasure.

After handling the affairs of the two assassins, Mr. Mo came to Gai Nie again, folded his hands and saluted, "I would also like to thank Mr. Gai Nie for your help this time."

Gai Nie returned the salute with his sword in hand, and said: "Master Mo, you are so polite. Even if I am not here today, with the protection of this senior, I believe Master Mo can still sit back and relax."

The direction Gai Nie was looking at was clearly Jian Jiuyuan behind Mr. Mo.

Mr. Mo shook his head and said: "It's different. If today's battle cannot be fought quickly and the evil guests outside are frightened, my little county governor's mansion may never have peace in the future."

The assassins who just infiltrated the Sheriff's Mansion were actually only part of them.

Whether it was the other group of 'Luowang' killers who had just taken over Black and White Xuanjian, or the other group of underworld masters who were interested in Mr. Mo's bounty, they were all waiting outside the door for news inside.

If Lord Mo shows a little bit of cowardice in tonight's battle, this group of people will definitely swarm in and rush to cut off Lord Mo's head and exchange it for the bounty.

Lord Mo himself is actually not very afraid of assassination now, but the problem is that he is not the only one in Lord Mo's house!

Killers have no boundaries.

If one day these people find that they can't do anything to Lord Mo, they will definitely look for other loopholes in Lord Mo's house.

So in order to avoid future troubles, Mr. Mo borrowed a thousand elite soldiers from Meng Wu. He just wanted to show the group of guys who are still outside how much it would cost to assassinate him. cost.

"Heiyu, cut off all the heads of these assassins later and hang them outside the Sheriff's Mansion."

"yes!"

Kuroyu responded.

"Zhan Qin, for the soldiers who died in the battle tonight, all pensions will be paid at three times the standard. You can discuss this with General Li when the time comes. We will make up for the shortfall."

"I understand!"

Zhan Qin gave a slight salute.

After briefly dealing with the chaos in the Sheriff's Mansion, Mr. Mo turned to Gai Nie and said, "Mr. Gai Nie, are you interested in accompanying me to meet someone?"

Gai Nie's eyes flickered, and for a moment he didn't understand what Lord Mo was trying to do, but he still held his sword and said, "It is better to obey orders than to be respectful."

Zhan Qin, Hei Yu, and Jian Jiuyuan were left to guard the Sheriff's Mansion to prevent possible accidents in the future.

Mr. Mo then led Xiong Da, Xiong Er, and Gai Nie out of the county governor's mansion.

And the moment Mr. Mo appeared from the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion, countless eyes hidden in the dark immediately sent messages to behind them or to their superiors.

There was such a big commotion in the Nan County Sheriff's Mansion tonight. More than a hundred assassins went in and still haven't come out. This in itself explains a lot of problems.

But now that Mr. Mo walked out of it intact, it further confirmed everyone's guesses.

And the outcome of tonight's incident is destined to cause quite a stir in the world.

certainly.

These are all things for later.

Mo Jun led the three of them to wander on the street for a while, as if taking a walk, and then came to the door of a rather prosperous mansion in a busy city.

"A few distinguished guests, my master is waiting in the lobby."

The owner of this mansion seemed to have anticipated the arrival of Mo Jun and others, so he sent his servants to wait at the door early.

The four of them walked into the mansion.

Soon I saw a middle-aged man with a mustache in the lobby, sitting behind a low table with several tables of wine and food prepared in front of him, as if he was waiting for the arrival of Mr. Mo and others.

This middle-aged man with a mustache may be a bit unfamiliar to Gai Nie, but he is extremely familiar to the people of Nanjun.

Because this person is the current imperial envoy of Nanjun, who has the power to supervise the people and officials, and can even be used to restrain the county governor when necessary.

"Lord Mo!"

"Master Li, long time no see!"

Mr. Mo greeted the Nanjun and Imperial Envoy with a smile, and then continued: "Speaking of which, when I first came to Nanjun, I have always had a doubt in my heart. I wonder if Mr. Li can be my master. Answer one or two.”

"Oh? I wonder what kind of problem can actually trouble the governor?"

"The position of county magistrate in Nan County has been replaced by three consecutive magistrates before my arrival. Almost no magistrate has served for more than one year."

Mo Jun said: "But what is very strange is that in addition to the county guard, the other three important positions in Nanjun, namely, county magistrate, county lieutenant, and concurrent imperial envoy, have not changed for several years."

"I have always been curious. The current Jun Cheng was supported by the four major clans in Nanjun, so he naturally has a firm foothold in this place."

"The county lieutenant is concurrently held by the border general Mengwu, and it is as stable as a mountain."

"But I see that Master Jianyu has no background and no military authority. I wonder how Master Li sat in this position in this remote southern county for so long?"

Faced with Lord Mo's question, Mr. Li, the imperial envoy in front of him, was not annoyed at all. Instead, he took a sip of wine with a smile and replied: "Before I answer this question, please tell me a story to the governor!"

Mr. Mo nodded, stretched out his hand and said, "I'm all ears."

Mr. Li said: "There used to be a scholar who had no background, no family background, and no money. Although he was talented in literature, he had no way to serve the country."

"Until he was thirty years old, this scholar was valued by a big shot. Later, under the recommendation of this big shot, with just one word, this scholar became the powerful envoy of Nanjun."

"Do you think this scholar should repay that big shot?"

Mo Jun nodded in agreement and said: "A drop of kindness is repaid by a spring. But hasn't this scholar ever thought about using other people's lives to repay his kindness? If others don't die, wouldn't he be very happy? Danger?"

Mr. Li smiled and said: "I guess he is not dangerous, because with the protection of that big shot, no one in the entire Qin State would dare to touch this scholar..."

Boom!

Before he finished speaking, a huge dark iron mace swept past, and the scholar's head exploded like a watermelon on the spot.

Xiong Er's decisive move even made Gai Nie stunned for a moment.

Mr. Mo calmly took out a silk scarf, wiped the drop of blood that splashed on his sleeves, and then casually covered the headless corpse's neck with blood, and said with an indifferent look: "It's a pity. you guessed wrong!"
