[Qin] Qin Shi

After the conversation that day, the ban on Ying Zheng and his party was lifted.With the right to travel freely in the courtyard, Ying Zheng and Meng Tian, ​​who were not in a hurry to rush back to Qin, began their daily life of wandering back and forth in the village.

It's just that since they lifted the restraint and began to communicate with the people in the village, they are as dull as Meng Tian, ​​and they can feel that the people in this village are no longer friendly to them: "It feels like they suddenly reject us." In those days in the yard, the villagers who came to deliver food were friendly and simple, and even said that when they became their own people, they would definitely take them for a walk.

But when they really walked out of the yard, even the villagers who were friendly and friendly on the surface, secretly treated them with a vigilant attitude.It's as if after they walked out of that yard, they changed from 'friends' to 'enemies', and they were existences that needed to be expelled.

"And everyone has a different opinion about the general and the king." What I can't get is always the one that I miss. In these days when he can walk freely, Yingzheng mainly focuses on how to separate the king of the mountain from the general. Shu's daily routine started, and because of this, he discovered the abnormality in it.

"It's normal," Meng Tian didn't think there was anything wrong, "Either they are all lying, or they don't know the reason." No matter how close and familiar the King of the Mountain is to this group of people, he is their leader It's not the juniors around me, "After all, it's about the two of them. Even if outsiders know about it, they won't be as clear as they are."

What Meng Tian said is not unreasonable, but there are many discrepancies in the details. Generally speaking, their stories also revolve around the first encounter of "the grace of life-saving", the process of "acquaintance and trust", and the joint leader of the border. Dark follow-up: "This is a bit difficult." Ying Zheng was thinking about something secretly.

Just as they were thinking, Ying Zheng and Meng Tian heard the sound of a drum beating from the direction of the gate in the distance. After the drum sound, there were the sounds of women booing and laughing and children playing and laughing.It was like a kind of summoning, beside Ying Zheng and Meng Tian, ​​there were villagers one after another with smiles on their faces, holding all kinds of fruits and flowers, running past all the way, it was very lively.

"What happened?" Meng Tian stretched out his hand to grab an old man who was carrying agricultural tools, "Where are you going?" He took the initiative to take the agricultural tools from the other party's hand as he spoke, and walked in the direction the old man wanted to go. and move on.

The old man glanced at Meng Tian, ​​and didn't care about the other party's move to investigate the situation by wanting to resist the farm tools for him: "The boys in the village are back, and we are here to welcome them." The old man thought for a while, and felt that this It's not impossible to say, "Young master came back much earlier than these youngsters, and he ran too slowly."

During these days of getting along, Meng Tian also knew that these villagers called "General Shu" as a general, but the title of the king of the mountain became various and complicated.It's interesting to say that these people don't seem to know what the real name of the King of the Mountain is, or they know it, but they never mention it: "No wonder we haven't seen the young and strong in the village these days, it turns out that they have something to go out. .”

蒙恬给老人递出了话题，按照他的想法老人自然会接着往下向他解释这些青壮不在村子里的因由。可老人只是看了他一眼，颇为赞同的点了点头，并未按照他的想法继续下去：“没事儿，很快你就能见到他们了。”

Ying Zheng noticed Meng Tian's aggrieved failure to start the topic when he wanted to investigate the situation from one side, he chuckled and followed Meng Tian's words naturally: "It's good that they came back safely, these two brothers are just here for the first time. , have been worried that if the barbarians attack, no one in this village, old and young, can fight, and I am afraid that they will have to catch them without a fight."

Ying Zheng was much more tactful than Meng Tian. He didn't directly ask what the young people in the village were doing, but expressed his concerns in a caring manner.

"Coming?" The old man seemed to have heard something funny, and he sneered indifferently, "I haven't seen a decent old man for several years, besides, they still have the guts to come out like they are now." Where are we?" As he said, the old man put his hand by his side, and gestured with some gesture, "Even if those boys are not here, I can still hold a knife, old man, come here, let me move around Bones!"

老人这话颇有宝刀未老的气魄，然而蒙恬的注意力却在对方好似是随意比划的动作上了。比起那些没见过血的花架子，老人的动作看似随意，却的确是真实战场上最有效且省力的动作。且他落手时完全没注意到他自己下意识的加快且加重了力度，这正是久经沙场的老将才会有的习惯——砍入时总要比砍空气更费力。

The gray-haired old man in front of him was probably a good fighter on the battlefield when he was young.Meng Tian was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly thought of the retired veterans of the Qin State who liked to live next to each other in groups, and when he thought of the old farmers farming these days, he had a bold and crazy guess— —What if the old people farming in this village are all veterans who retired from the border?

Then this village, this king of the mountain, is it plotting something bigger than they imagined?

"Listen to what you mean, old man." Ying Zheng had never experienced a battlefield, and his observations were naturally not as meticulous as Meng Tian's. "Haven't the barbarians attacked the pass in the past few years?" His attention was all on other places.

"No," the old man waved his hand. It's not a secret. "The little general is here. It's good if they don't run far away. Why would they send it up for us to pick up?" The old man's statement was very strange. But considering the fact that ordinary people don't read books, it's perfectly normal to use the wrong words and sentences.

"That's great," Ying Zheng smiled, but there was a shock in his heart, "No wonder you love the general so much." At this time, Ying Zheng couldn't care less about why the other party said "general" instead of "king". His heart was already in a mess by the sudden news.

It is because most of the power of the young is taken over by the Queen Mother Huayang and Lu Buwei, Ying Zheng is not completely ignorant of the situation in the world.Because of his ambition to unify the six countries, Yingzheng will pay more attention to the affairs of neighboring countries. Compared with the other countries, Zhao Guo and the sieve-like interior made him hear a lot of things during this trip.

For example, in Handan's information, the border gate of Zhao State, like the border gate of Qin State, has been harassed and invaded by barbarians in recent years.The border generals even sent a lot of urgent letters to Handan asking for help. It can be seen that although it is not as multiplied year by year as the Qin border, it still has a lot of casualties-but now, the people at the border told him that these years The barbarians have long since dared not invade Zhao's border?

If one of the nobles in Handan and the old people in the border is lying, which side should it be?

"It's all thanks to the young master," the old man suddenly remembered whether he had just called the little general casually, and quickly added as if to cover up something, "If it weren't for the young master, how would we have the life we ​​have today." It was his sincere words, and naturally he said them very piously.

Just as he was speaking, the old man led Ying Zheng and Meng Tian to the outermost edge of the crowd gathered at the gate of the cottage. Over the layers of heads, the two finally saw what the villagers were cheering for—it was a human hand An animal, even without an animal, soldiers with big bags on their shoulders.

"It seems that the little general received a lot of goods this time." Another hunched old man who had stood here earlier grinned. This old man on crutches was older than the one who led the way before. Now I have to rely on crutches to walk.But even so, he also appeared in the team cheering for the soldiers to go home.

"That's not it," the veteran who led the way responded with a smile, "No wonder the little general came back first and ordered the customs to be closed. I don't know where they went walking their dogs this time. But there are good things to eat this winter, luck Well, I can defend one more wave—the little general wants to face a new shield."

"Then the old widower must be able to type it out for him. I have been in the kiln for more than half a year, and it hasn't come out yet." The old man on the other side also inserted in, with a serious expression on his face. Laughing, "I saw my little boy, he is not missing any arms or legs, not bad!" With pride and showing off, "I just don't know if he got anything good."

"Your boy is filial, and I can't miss you." Hearing the bragging of the old man in the same village, the others also turned their heads and chatted.They complained about their children, real or fake, but their faces were all proud.

When everyone's attention was not on them, Ying Zheng turned his head to look at Meng Tian: "Have you noticed?" He lowered his voice and motioned Meng Tian to look at the team that hadn't fully seen the tail at the moment, "The things on those things sign."

Just as the Seven Kingdoms have their own characteristics, each tribe outside the pass also has its own unique totem.The dozens of docile cows, sheep and horses that were brought in earlier were not counted. The bags that were pulled immediately, and the fabric that looked like it was removed from the tent and used as temporary bags, had the unique totems of nomads.

Meng Tian took this opportunity to tell Ying Zheng what he noticed just now.Then he looked at the team with a complicated expression: "If it is as you guessed, then there is a new explanation for the sudden increase of Huns and Qiang people at the border of Qin State in these years."

It is precisely because they cannot continue to survive on the border of Zhao State that they will gradually move to both sides.And as one of the neighbors of Zhao State, Qin State naturally suffered such an indiscriminate disaster: "But why did they even hide the group of people in Handan?"

嬴政忽然想到了之前在边关的军营中时，那个自称是副将利的男人，用一种极为讽刺的目光询问是不是这一次的粮饷也依旧只够给边关退伍老兵发体恤金的：“如果我们看到的军营，不是真正的军营呢？”

Ying Zheng looked at the team that was completely clean and bloodless: "If the lieutenant general you mentioned that day was covered in blood, it was the general Shu who rushed back in an emergency?" The team in the next step I have time to get dressed and rest, and even have time to change clothes to maintain my image.

But because of their sudden arrival that day, maybe the man who didn't have so much time to wash up had an explanation for the unconcealable aura on his body.Even the so-called general Shu, why he had to look at the expression of his lieutenant over and over again, and why he didn't react at all when he saw Wang Ling, could be explained.

If the so-called general is illiterate no matter what he does, and the one who is really hiding behind it is the general himself who claims to be the deputy general Li, then all this makes sense.
