I am your natural enemy
Chapter 605 Suspicion gradually reduced, starting point for crossing to the east (5k)
The moment Wen Yan saw the air wave, his body instinctively gave up the idea of resisting it.
The maximum speed at the moment of shooting can break the sound barrier. No matter how much it decays in the middle, the speed of the arrow will not be too slow when it flies to him.
To be able to maintain such a high acceleration without breaking, the strength of the arrow itself should be very high, and the weight is definitely much heavier than the bullet, and the kinetic energy it will eventually carry will be hundreds of times.
Wen Yan's body was one step ahead of his thoughts, and with a slight shake, he avoided it several meters away.
Before his footsteps landed, the afterimage of the arrow had already passed through the position where he just stood.
The moment his feet landed, the strong wind carried by the arrow began to whistle.
If he hadn't dodged just now, this arrow would definitely hit his chest, and he shouldn't be able to withstand it with his bone density.
According to his estimation, the nail of his middle finger on his left hand is definitely strong enough, but that nail is not vibranium, and he has to bear a large part of the kinetic energy himself.
As for fighting, what the hell, do you think he is stupid.
He really didn't understand why he went to the island country, triggered something, came here, and saw the crossbowmen of the Qin Dynasty. What was the connection between them?
But he knew the combat power of these guys, which was quite fierce, and the prompt specifically said that these soldiers were the representatives of "number is really useful".
It would be a death wish to estimate the overall combat power of these guys by only looking at the individual combat power.
Besides, there was no need.
"Wait a minute."
Wen Yan shouted, but... it was useless.
Looking at the black mass of crossbow arrows breaking through the air, he took a step forward and rushed out in an instant.
He looked at his appearance, modern clothes, short hair, and a bag commonly used by Taoist priests, which contained his common things.
Just based on this outfit, he appeared near the battle and secretly peeped. He knew that it was useless just by his mouth.
The leader didn't speak, and the Qin soldiers would not hesitate at all. They loaded their crossbows, shot arrows, covered, and attacked with crossfire. They didn't seek to hit the target with one shot, but only to force the opponent to move, suppress the route, and finally shoot the opponent to death with arrows.
Wen Yan's speed in the mountains was much faster than those dozen people just now. In a few steps, he was already on the top of another mountain.
"Don't do it, I'm a friend of Wang's family in Pinyang!"
Wen Yan didn't know what era it was at the moment. At most, he could recognize that they were Qin soldiers from their clothes and the buns on their heads. More than that, it was embarrassing for him.
He just looked at it from the top of the mountain. It was very big here, and he could feel the charm of a very far place. This must not be a small area or a small dream of a single event.
What if this was the peak period of the Qin Dynasty, and he was crazy to fight with Qin soldiers.
Wen Yan had seen what the version was like when it was strong.
I stayed in Gumeng for a few more days before and saw the Thirteenth Ancestor at his peak. He was not only crazy, but also had an absurdly strong aura.
At that time, Wen Yan was just standing at the edge. The strong aura there, like a physical aura, made the air there sticky. Standing at the edge, he triggered several layers of passive buffs.
The version at that time was much stronger than the present world, which has just revived spiritual energy not long ago.
What if this is the legendary Xian Qin at its peak...
Wen Yan thought about it and knew a Qin army soldier who was a military marquis and his status was not too low.
The soldiers standing on the chariot had a gloomy face and barely understood what Wen Yan said. Although his accent was a bit strange, at least he didn't sound like someone from the Lost Chu. He didn't have that flavor.
Seeing that Wen Yan didn't continue to run, but stopped, the soldiers also raised their hands and asked his soldiers to stop.
Wen Yan walked over and stopped more than ten meters away.
"I am a friend of Wang Jiyong from the Wang family of Pinyang."
The Wang family of Pinyang is a big family. Wang Jian, the commander who destroyed Chu, was from Pinyang.
This place is the former site of the fallen Chu. If they are really friends of the Wang family of Pinyang, they will at least not be the remnants of the Chu family.
The leading general thought about it and thought about how Wen Yan just walked leisurely in the garden, with a step of dozens of feet, very fast, but it didn't seem like a powerful physical explosion. If he wanted to escape, they shouldn't be able to stop him with so few people.
"Who are you? Do you have a letter?"
"Wen Yan from Sanchuan County, moved to the south before, and just came from the south today."
Wen Yan rummaged in his bag and took out a small porcelain bottle. Then, he thought about it and saw a stream of water wrapped around the small porcelain bottle, and with a whoosh, it flew towards the soldiers in the distance.
"This is the secret medicine of Wang family given by Brother Ji Yong himself. Do you recognize it?"
He actually has a long-burning lamp in his hand, but thinking about the origin of this thing, it comes from the underground passage and is related to the mausoleum of the Qin Emperor.
After taking it out, it might be spoiled.
After thinking about it, there is only this thing.
This is when Wang Ji Yong misunderstood Gao Si and shot Gao Si with an arrow. After finding out that it was a misunderstanding, he gave Gao Si some secret medicine of Wang family, saying that it has a miraculous effect on injuries.
Gauss took it back to study, and some of it was left, so Wen Yan asked for it as part of the preparation.
It can lock blood and heal injuries, and it doesn't conflict. He wants both.
Now let's try this first, it should be considered a relatively precious thing.
The soldier took the porcelain bottle, looked at it carefully, pulled out the lid and sniffed it, frowned slightly, and then he was a little surprised.
This medicine is probably quite old, but there is nothing wrong with it. It is definitely the purest secret medicine of the Wang family. This thing has a miraculous effect on injuries and is very precious.
Even if it is a direct descendant of the Wang family, it is unlikely to give the purest secret medicine unless he joins the army to earn military merit.
Last time, his superior was shot by an arrow. The arrowhead was soaked in gold juice and was very poisonous. If he was not careful, he would die of flesh and blood ulceration. In the end, he was cured by this top secret medicine of the Wang family.
After confirming that the medicine was fine, he actually believed it for the most part. Of course, it was mainly because Wen Yan was powerful.
He got off the chariot and put away his weapon.
"How long have you not seen Wang Jiyong?"
"It's been a long time." Wen Yan thought about it and did not give a specific time.
"Wang Jiyong has died in battle for several years, but you have preserved this medicine very well." The soldier threw the medicine back to Wen Yan.
"Eh?"
"A few years ago, when your majesty was on tour, he encountered an assassin. Wang Jiyong died in the fight with the assassin. Your majesty, in consideration of his loyalty and bravery, ordered people to make a terracotta of him and granted him a place in the mausoleum." When the soldier said this, his face was full of envy.
"I see." Wen Yan suddenly realized. No wonder when he was in Guanzhong County, he clearly felt that Wang Jiyong's intelligence was far superior to other terracotta warriors, and he could clearly remember many things in his life.
He guessed that Wang Jiyong, a military marquis, was not of low status, so it should not be unknown. As for the Wang family of Pinyang, it was even more impossible that no one did not know them.
"What is your name?"
"Qiuwu." The soldier replied silently.
Wen Yan did not understand. He introduced himself in this way, which actually meant that he had no surname or clan name, and relied on military merits to fight.
Wen Yan's face was normal, and he thought about it, and threw the half bottle of secret medicine to the other party.
"This is my first time meeting you, so I'll treat it as a gift. Meeting is fate."
"Do you have a talisman, a transmission, or a test?"
"..." Wen Yan actually didn't know what the other party was talking about. He shook his head: "No."
"You have to verify your identity first when you go to the city with me. You are an alien, so you must make up for it."
Qiu Wu was not used to Wen Yan's way of speaking and doing things, but after hesitating for a while, he still didn't want to give up the Wang family secret medicine.
Wen Yan followed the team of Qin soldiers forward, and identified the direction in his mind. The direction of how to leave here was also this direction, so he didn't think about it anymore and just followed them.
When passing by the previous battle site, Wen Yan looked at the dozen corpses and asked casually.
"Who are these people?"
"The remnants of Shen Xi."
When Qiu Wu said this, he glanced at Wen Yan, and saw that Wen Yan looked confused, as if he was still waiting for him to explain.
Qiu Wu was silent for a while, and his vigilance and suspicion in his heart became even less.
"Are you a Taoist priest?"
"No, I get dizzy when I read books, and I don't even know a few herbs."
"..."Qiu Wu sighed, and the last bit of doubt disappeared, and he defined Wen Yan in his heart.
A guy who was taken south by his family because of the war in his early years and accidentally became an alien might not even know how to read.
Especially Wen Yan's weird hairstyle and weird accent, he had to think about some words before he could combine the context and guess the meaning.
There is nothing to doubt about such a person, it's too conspicuous.
Moreover, it's not something a normal person can do to follow them so naturally.
After Qiu Wu reported back, he took Wen Yan to the nearest city and gave Wen Yan something that he said could temporarily verify his identity, at least he wouldn't be treated as a savage.
Wen Yan asked what year it was now, and got several answers, some of which he couldn't understand, but Wen Yan could probably infer that it should be after the Qin Emperor unified the six kingdoms.
And the small seal script has also appeared.
He originally wanted to borrow some books to read, and Qiu Wu was very straightforward and helped him find a bunch of bamboo slips.
But looking at at least three types of fonts on the bamboo slips, he was dumbfounded. He could only recognize a small seal script, which was the recognition method he learned from Prince Zhu.
There were also some characters that he couldn't recognize, and they were obviously discarded in the future.
Although he had seen in books that books should be written in the same script and vehicles should be written in the same track, in reality, it is obvious that complete updates and replacements are not that fast.
Especially since this place is the former site of the Chu State, many things are not so easy to completely assimilate and change.
Qiu Wu, who was standing aside, looked at Wen Yan's expression and was satisfied. He was too familiar with this expression.
"What does this word mean?" Wen Yan didn't force himself to ask decisively if he didn't know it. Anyway, some characters, even if he guessed, he could still recognize part of it.
"I don't know." Qiu Wu answered confidently.
"..."
Wen Yan sighed, then took out his mobile phone and took a lot of photos. It couldn't connect to the Internet, but it was always okay to use it as a camera.
After taking the photos, he would go back and give them as materials to others, and those old scholars would definitely treat him as their own son.
"Are there any other books?"
"I borrowed these and will return them later. They are waiting outside." Qiu Wu pointed to the door, where a man who looked like a servant was standing there waiting.
"Then I'll go visit him."
"It's very expensive to hire someone to read to you." Qiu Wu kindly reminded him.
"I can read!"
"I understand, but it's very expensive."
Wen Yan looked at Qiu Wu and was somewhat powerless to explain.
Damn it, he accepted being treated as illiterate by someone of the level of his fourth uncle.
Being treated as illiterate by an illiterate who could not read, he was a little unconfident when he spoke.
He used his face to recognize it. There are many ways to write a word. The meaning of some words is different from the future. There are even some bamboo slips with words that look like talismans. It is normal for him, a non-professional, not to recognize them.
Qiuwu didn't care whether Wen Yan was stubborn or not, but he kindly introduced Wen Yan to the local wealthy family to borrow books, and he really had to pay for it.
Wen Yan gave the other party two small pieces of gold as the book borrowing fee, and then took out his mobile phone and started to take pictures.
We have experience before. Things in these places cannot be taken away, but the images taken by the mobile phone given by the Lieyang Department can be taken away.
After returning this time, I must suggest that the Lieyang Department build a database into it and enhance the performance to facilitate text translation in the future.
Speaking is not a big problem. He can understand it after talking, especially since they are originally from the same language family. It is easy for him to understand now.
The servant saw that Wen Yan was so generous, and after being led by Wen Yan for a few words, he talked about a lot of things.
Books are not available in small families. This big family is a local household, but it is also considered a new noble. They contributed to the great cause of Emperor Qin's unification of the six kingdoms. The eldest son of the family joined the army, made military achievements, and was awarded a military title.
There are many books here, which should not exist, but there are few people who can read here, and it is far from the capital, so it is not so strict.
It took Wen Yan less than half a day to take pictures of all the bamboo slips in the room. The information density is really high. If it was a room full of paper books, he might not be able to take pictures in a month.
It was dinner time, and Wen Yan was invited to have a meal. When he arrived, in addition to the servants, he saw an ordinary middle-aged man who claimed to be the owner of this place.
He heard a piece of news after just a few words.
The local household thought he was generous and a very powerful alien. When the conversation went smoothly, he told him.
"You are lucky. Xu Shi will soon go out to sea again from here to find the legendary fairy mountain.
Recently, a large number of Qin troops have strangled dissidents here, and many people have died.
A few days ago, there was an old Chu priest who sacrificed to Taiyi God and was killed as an evil."
"Taiyi?" Wen Yan heard a key word. He remembered that it seemed to be the belief of Chu. Among the several countries that were destroyed, Chu did leave the most cultural beliefs.
"Back then, Wu'an Jun led his troops to fight against Taiyi Priest and broke three cities in a row. Taiyi Priest died on the spot. I heard that it was the sun falling into the night sky, which was extremely spectacular."
"I was not born at that time, so I don't know what the sun falling into the night sky means?" Wen Yan had a bad premonition.
"It is the sun that never sets, which fell. I heard that someone saw it that day. The light of the sun went out that night, so now those guys who look like priests are staring at them very closely."
Wen Yan's eyelids twitched wildly when he heard it. Why does it sound so much like the scorching sun?
Fortunately, after he came here, he first encountered the Qin army, and was very cautious not to fight with them, nor did he use the scorching sun.
Otherwise, a guy who was highly suspected of being a priest of the ancient Chu faith, with a weird hairstyle, a weird accent, and weird clothes, appeared in the place where Xu Shi was about to go out to sea.
And this area is just recently clearing out the remnants of the anti-Qin and restoration of Chu.
What would happen if he met him at this time?
Wen Yan suddenly felt that the impression he had from outsiders, that he was cruel and ruthless, fighting and killing at every turn, and an illiterate who could do nothing but fighting and killing, was actually a good thing.
While Wen Yan was thinking about this, the local household was happy and continued to brag.
"Last time I heard that after Xu Shi went out to sea, he encountered a dragon blocking his way, and he escaped back.
This time, he is well prepared, and maybe he can really find the fairy mountain and find the elixir of immortality."
Seeing that Wen Yan didn't seem to believe it, the local household continued.
"Don't disbelieve me. When Qin destroyed Zhao, they found a person who had taken the elixir of immortality.
If you hadn't really seen it, how could your majesty believe the words of those alchemists?
If you can kill the dragon this time, you will definitely find the fairy mountain, the immortal tree, and the elixir of immortality.
You are an extraordinary person. If you are determined, you can make a great achievement. You can give it a try.
When the time comes, go out to sea with us and kill the dragon. After you come back, you will definitely be able to make your wife and children famous, and be given a title of nobility."
"You are too kind. I don't have that ability. I just run fast." Wen Yan smiled and shook his head. Only then did he understand what the local household wanted to express.
Come to think of it, it makes sense. If Xu Shi wants to go out to sea, he can't just bring boys and girls, craftsmen and the like.
To maintain his authority, he must bring guards and masters to prevent various situations.
It turns out that the local household is willing to let him borrow books because he wants to pull him on board.
However, those who board the ship must undergo background checks. They must be completely reliable before they can board, right?
Wen Yan stayed here for a day, and on the second day, he felt that it was getting lively here, and there were obviously more people.
He also roughly understood why he was going to the island country before, but he came here the moment he stepped into the border of the island country.
He knew that something must be at work, but there must be a reason for stepping on the territorial waters.
He looked for the direction, and sure enough, starting today, the direction to leave here turned to the direction of the sea.
It is likely that he should follow Xu Shi's ship and cross the sea together, which is the correct direction to leave here.
And he is such a strange person, and the local residents in front of him all recommend him to board the ship as a guard and fight the dragon.
Could it be that Mayor Xu really intended to flee, and the target of his escape was the island country that would become the island country later?
Wen Yan saw the local resident go out, so he followed him out and wandered around. From a distance, he saw the local resident heading towards the seaside.
Wen Yan strode away, ran for twenty minutes, found a high point, and looked at the seaside from afar. On the simple dock, he could already see several large ships, and people were constantly transporting things to the ships.
The direction that Wen Yan was pointing in his mind was those ships.
After waiting for half a day, Wen Yan saw a large group of people arriving.
The team was very long, and there was nothing special in the front, but in the back, Wen Yan saw a large number of girls, all wearing plain clothes and with their hair draped behind their heads.
Wen Yan had seen a lot of people in this day. To be honest, they all looked a little dusty. Now seeing so many clean girls with long, straight black hair, there was a sudden contrast.
The three words "black long straight" flashed through his mind, and then he looked at it carefully for a while. The more he looked, the more surprised he felt. He really found the most crucial information in an unexpected place.
Wen Yan remembered clearly that the guy who ran away to the island country had a very straightforward online name: I love black long straight.
