Chapter 7 Setting Fire Before Killing

The drizzle has stopped, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.

Cao Hong rode his horse slowly on the streets of Pingyang City.

There was no trouble when entering the city. Perhaps the soldiers guarding the city gate saw the standard noble sign of horses, and without saying a word, they opened a convenient door for Cao Hong - riding a horse through the side gate.

Seeing the soldier's slightly flattering smile and his eagerly looking forward to reward, Cao Hong was sure that many nobles in this city went out to the wild.

Pingyang City is obviously much more prosperous than F-district. Although it was already night, the streets were still brightly lit, and many vendors and pedestrians were making noises and laughing and playing in Xuanhua, which was very lively.

I looked up at the moon in the sky. It was a very ordinary crescent moon. It was not on the first day of the day or the fifteenth day. I don’t know what these people are celebrating.

Is it a market at a specific time?

After looking around briefly, Cao Hong shook his head and quickly lost interest. There were too few entertainment methods in the entire era, which made Cao Hong unable to raise any interest.

I looked down at the white book in my hand. The shining white dots were already very close.

After a little discerning direction and looking at the streets in front of him, Cao Hong had to turn over and get off the horse and slowly move forward in the crowd with the reins.

I hurriedly chased after a few days, but it was so blocked by myself.

After these days of pursuit, Cao Hong admired Jing Ke and was overwhelmed by his body. You sister, you are injured. You can still travel hundreds of miles a day on such a bullshit road, and you almost vomit blood when you ride a horse behind you. If you don't get injured, you won't fly.

After finally passing through a bunch of excited people who didn't know how crazy they were, Cao Hong stood in front of a yard with his horse.

"Recruitment Hall? Are you sure it's here?" Cao Hong was a little surprised when he looked at the three golden characters on the plaque.

"Yes, the goal is inside!"

"If I remember correctly, this place should be within Qin."

"Not only that, this Qixie Pavilion is the place to recruit talented people for Qin Shihuang."

Cao Hong shook his head: "Good guy, this ancient man really can't underestimate it. The origin of darkness under the lamp is so early."

The recruitment hall is never closed, and anyone who is consciously capable can enter it. Even travelers who have not found a place to stay can come in and stay overnight. No one charges money, and even when they are lucky, they can eat a free meal, such as more ancient temples that are convenient to others than national institutions.

But this does not mean that this is a place where you can live a life. If you can live here safely, you must have some ability. It is absolutely not easy for a second-rate idle man to come and take advantage of it. Although there is no trace, there are indeed managers here.

Perhaps the BMW brand effect was too great. As soon as Cao Hong led the horse into the yard, a man in official uniform walked towards him.

The man's eyes were shining on the horse for a long time before he reluctantly retracted his gaze and looked at Cao Hong with a smile: "Is the hero here to offer a BMW?"

As soon as these words came out, Cao Hong was stunned. He shook his head and said, "No..."

The smile on the official's face quickly disappeared and he said stiffly: "Why did that come?"

Your sister! It turns out that the tradition of being an official who turns against others is from here.

"Uh," Cao Hong hesitated for a moment, but still bowed: "Sir, I heard that the King of Qin has set up a recruitment hall to recruit wise men, and come to join the special forces for my king."

The official said with a "Oh" expression, and said, "Then what are your abilities?"

"I have been playing in the mountains and forests since I was a child. I have walked through the forest and walked like walking on the flat ground. I have skilled swords, guns, sticks and sticks. Three or five great men are not allowed to approach me."

Cao Hongxin said that I was bragging enough.

Who knew that the official looked contemptuous. He shook his sleeves and turned around and said, "What did you think it is? It turned out that he was a ranger, a fucking man, and he could not get into the eyes of the king. Get out of here!"

Cao Hong was a little stunned. Not to mention that the ancients respected the powerful generals and warriors? Why did I become a frivolous person?

Cao Hong hurriedly said, "Is this talented view to see if people can prepare food? The King of Qin has a broad mind and is just around the corner. Unexpectedly, the officials under his subordinates are actually doing this. I don't know what the people will say when the news comes out."

The official quickly stopped, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and said, "I don't know if it's a evil person today or if I went out to hit a ghost. First, a ranger came with a dead man, and now another one came with a rude person. Forget it, you are all wise men, I have a low position and I can't afford you stars of tomorrow! You can do it yourself!"

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

Cao Hong hurriedly asked, "Wait, where is the person you just mentioned living? I have an old relationship with him."

The official snorted and laughed in surprise: "Ha, the relationship is good, you can find it yourself! This yard is not big, enough for you to find it for one night!" After saying that, he walked quickly, and then moved into the backyard in three or two steps and disappeared.

“…”

Cao Hong patted his forehead: "I said it! I forgot that the officials at this time are not only famous, but also have no limit on being naughty! Forget it, if you don't say it, I have a way of myself."

"I want to scan the specific location?" Zhu's voice was lazy, with a faint smile, and he didn't know what he wanted to express.

"That's right!"

Cao Hong stretched out his hand, the black and white book fell in his palm, and the radar scan map appeared rapidly. Almost in an instant, the white light spots shone out in his direction.

The black and white books disappeared, Cao Hong's raised face had a smile, and his emotions-free eyes were cold and bone-bone-bone.

"After so long, the story finally got to the point!"

----------

The explanation given by Zhu Zhu is very profound. In short, it should be a great task such as surrounding the historical process of world history.

The reason is very open, reasonable and just. But Cao Hong didn't believe a word in his heart.

To be precise, he didn't believe a word of what he said. No matter what the relationship was direct or human nature, it was just Cao Hong's professional instinct.

The killer absolutely does not trust anyone.

Cao Hong, who was in this industry, knew deeply how fragile the so-called feelings were, and how terrible the fickleness of human beings and how powerful the money was. So even his stepmother had a lot of reservations to his trust, and he always had a second plan to escape and evacuate.

If you have to find someone you trust the most, maybe the father who has never spoken face to face since he was seven years old should be qualified. Because this is the only person who Cao Hong has sacrificed his life for - although he feels a little awkward, he will never hesitate when necessary.

The person Jing Ke trusted the most is undoubtedly the dog slaughter. With the company of the dog slaughter, he still slept peacefully even though his body was in unbearable pain. A smile pursed at the corner of his mouth, as if he dreamed of the days when he met Gao Jianli and the dog slaughter met and got to know each other, and was happy and worry-free.

The dog slaughter was very worried, and the two black heroic eyebrows on Jianyi's face were almost twisted together. He stood up and looked at Jing Ke on the couch. Seeing that his wound did not seep blood again, he felt relieved and sat back on the chair next to him.

It has been more than ten days since they sent the news, and they had no time to find a doctor to treat Jing Ke's wounds. The continuous bleeding made Jing Ke's face look like gold paper, and when he was lying still, he seemed like a dead person.

If he hadn't been holding on with his powerful force, he would have been unable to do so ten days ago.

When will it be the end of the journey like this? The Prince Dan was trying hard to make a final desperate bet, so how could he send reinforcements for a dying person?

The dog slaughter looked at Jing Ke's face, sighed secretly, leaned against the back of the chair and slowly closed his eyes.

This is how he rested. In order to protect his close friend, he had not occupied it for more than ten days. Because the close friend was sitting, he could ensure that there was no storm to escape his alertness.

"Click!"

"Who!"

A slight lock sound came outside the door, and the dog slaughter suddenly rushed up, his eyes widened and shouted.

"Swoosh swish swish..."

Four or five small fireballs suddenly threw in from the window, smashed on the ground and exploded four or five flames, instantly igniting the old wooden house in half, and rolling smoke rushed out.

"Damn it! Qingqing!"

The dog-slaughtering eyes were almost glaring out, and he rushed towards Jing Ke in the sea of ​​fire without hesitation. At this time, he didn't care about Jing Ke's injuries, threw them hard on his back, grabbed the mace beside the bed, and rushed towards the door.

Two bundles of straw flew in at the window, and the fire suddenly doubled. The thick smoke woke Jing Ke, who was already in a coma due to hypoxia, woke him up.

"Ahem, what's wrong?"

Jing Ke looked at the fire in front of him and felt a little confused.

"The pursuers have arrived, they set fire!" The dog slaughter gritted his teeth and cursed: "These Qin dogs are so cruel. For the sake of the two of us, they actually set up a huge recruitment hall. I don't know how many people will die together!"

The dog slaughter cursed and knocked his body towards the door.

However, the door did not open as he thought, but instead suppressed himself two steps back.

"They locked the door from outside! Cough cough." Jing Ke quickly judged the clue, but after saying a few words, the seriously injured body could no longer support it.

"I'll smash it away!" The dog slaughter raised his hand and was about to wave his mace.

"No!" Jing Ke stopped: "The Qin crossbow formation is famous all over the world. If their door is opened, once the door is opened, we will immediately pierce the heart and die! Cough cough!"

"That is good! Going out means death, staying here means death!" said the dog slaughter anxiously.

"Calm down!" Jing Ke said: "Didn't I ask you to go back before? Have you forgotten why we chose this room closest to the jungle?"

"Oh yes!" The dog slaughter's belief was unpredictable, and his spirit immediately rose. He laughed loudly, rushed to the back wall with two steps, and waved the mace repeatedly. The wooden wall actually broke in response, revealing the moonlight outside and the dark dense forest.
