Chapter 66 Chapter 10 Encounter on a Narrow Road

Zhao Ya pampered the horse and galloped at full speed, so tired that everyone chased after the horse. After passing the prairie outside the city, Zhao Ya left the official road and ran towards the hills and hills in the northeast. The terrain began to change, and the strange peaks and rocks replaced the grass and waves. Along the way, there were waterfalls and cliffs, clouds and mist, gullies and springs, bright and picturesque, forming a breathtaking and endless beauty. After passing through a valley, you come to a long gorge with steep walls on both sides, and you can only see a line of blue sky in many places, the situation is dangerous and strange.

Zhao Ya slowed down in front, and when Xiang Shaolong was about to catch up with her, Teng Yi rushed to his side and whispered: "Shaolong! If you talk to Zhao Ya with the same expression and tone just now, sooner or later you will give up to her." See through the details." Xiang Shaolong was stunned, he knew that Teng Yi was a bystander, he looked back and saw Wu Zhuo pestering Xie Fa to point out the situation, unexpectedly heard their conversation, so he humbly asked for advice. Teng Yi said: "Dong Kuang is famous for being a man who only knows how to raise horses, but in other respects he is a rough man. You can think about it yourself!"

Xiang Shaolong understood and fell silent. The long gorge is over, and the eyes suddenly open up, the trees are pierced into the sky, and the sunlight is transmitted from the tree tops lined with thick leaves. The colorful light is so beautiful that it is indescribable. Among the bushes, mountains and rocks, the streams are criss-crossed, trickling, and gurgling quietly, as if they do not belong to the fairyland of this world, which makes people feel happy and intoxicated. Zhao Ya seemed to be very familiar with this place, and led them to a small hill where they could have a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery.

Xiang Shaolong rode his horse to Zhao Ya's side, looked around, saw the situation clearly, and realized that the immediate area was just the core of a vast land, surrounded by layers of strange peaks and mountains in the distance, dense green, lush water and grass , the terrain is open amidst the mountains and rivers, the eyes are full of green shade, and the fragrance is wafting from far and near. He couldn't help laughing and said: "His grandma's son, how does Madam know there is such a good place?" Zhao Ya frowned upon hearing his vulgar tone, and did not answer him.

Teng Yi and the others also came to both sides and praised at the same time.Xie Fa said: "This place is called Tibetan Army Valley. The only entrance is the Yixiantian just now. Back then, King Wuling of my Great Zhao fought against Rongdi. The Tibetan army once fought here and won with a surprise army. Since then, this place has been named Tibetan. Jun Gu, do Mr. Dong think it’s okay?” Xiang Shaolong wondered to himself, how could I know if it was possible, and hurriedly winked at Wu Zhuo, an animal husbandry expert. Wu Zhuo slightly nodded, expressing his agreement. After pretending to look at it, Xiang Shaolong exclaimed, "Ah! I really want to fuck his mother!"

Teng Yi and Wu Zhuo were amused, but Xie Fa and Mrs. Ya listened to it. Xiang Shaolong suppressed a smile and said: "When I see something good, I can't help but say a few words to fuck his mother. Such a beautiful place, don't you want to fuck his mother even more?" Xie Faxie said: "So, do you want to choose this valley as a pasture?" Zhao Ya looked towards Xiang Shaolong at this time. Xiang Shaolong stared hard at her tall chest on purpose before nodding his head and said: "Oh! This place is very suitable for me. Starting from today, this Zangjun Valley is the place where I set up my first ranch. His grandma's! I didn't expect to find the site so smoothly."

Seeing his tone and demeanor, Zhao Ya thought that this was his true face, so she was displeased and said coldly, "Since Mr. Dong has found the ideal site, can we go back?" Xiang Shaolong looked at her lewdly on purpose, and said: "I still need to carefully survey the water source, soil and grass quality here, grandma, why is Madam rushing back in such a hurry?" Zhao Ya was even more displeased when he heard his rude and rude words, and said slightly angrily: "I still have an appointment, how can I spend more time with sir?" He blamed himself in his heart that he must be deluded by ghosts. After returning home last night, he couldn't stop thinking about this person and couldn't sleep at night, so he came to him at dawn.But this is also good, although this person has the shadow of Xiang Shaolong in appearance, but the distance is thousands of miles away, so I can give up.Since Xiang Shaolong, she no longer wants to have any emotional entanglements.

Xiang Shaolong didn't do it, and kept going, he simply rejected Zhao Ya's thoughts about him, and said with a strange smile: "I don't know who made Madam go back in such a hurry?" Zhao Ya couldn't bear it any longer, and said angrily: "This is my business, it has nothing to do with Mr." Pulling the horse's head, he turned around and galloped back the same way.She was so frightened that Xie Fa hurriedly assigned half of his people to escort her back to the city. Xiang Shaolong felt a burst of joy in his heart.As long as he can hurt her, he will be happy.Although she still has affection for herself, if she succeeds in framing him last time, his bones will be cold early, so there is no longer any friendship between the two.

◇◇◇◇◇◇ After pretending to do some research, they returned to the hotel at sunset. Zhao Mu's people had been waiting for him and invited him to the Hou's residence for a banquet. After Xiang Shaolong took a shower and changed his clothes, he went to the Marquis Mansion for a banquet alone with others. Seeing him coming, Zhao Mu was overjoyed. Taking advantage of the time, he brought him into the inner hall for a secret discussion. Before getting to the point, he laughed and said, "I heard that you made Zhao Ya half dead, what's the matter? To this slut Not interested? Is she more accessible now than ever?"

Xiang Shaolong scolded Zhao Mu in his heart, but also hated Zhao Ya for humiliating himself, so he responded, "I'm afraid she is King Xiaocheng's spy, so how dare you provoke her." Zhao Mu obviously appreciated his prudent attitude very much, patted him on the shoulder, and said kindly: "Is it a spy? Who knows better than me? If you are interested in her, I will arrange it for you." Xiang Shaolong secretly complained, and quickly changed the subject: "Has Master Hou thought about that matter?" Zhao Mu's spirit was greatly lifted, how could he remember Zhao Ya, he said solemnly: "Now in Handan, who is not my confidant, as long as I can get rid of a few people, I will surely sit on the position of Zhao's monarch safely."

Xiang Shaolong smiled and said, "The first two people to kill are Lian Po and Li Mu!" Zhao Mu praised: "With a talent like you helping me, why not worry about my success, but these two people are surrounded by fierce generals, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to make a move." Xiang Shaolong said indifferently: "If it was easy, Master Hou would have done it long ago, and this matter is on my shoulders. As long as I can get their accurate information, I will be able to succeed in one blow. I heard that they are not in Handan now, so it is best to have them." If there is no way to call them back, then I will make people lay an ambush and kill them cleanly." Zhao Mu said suspiciously: "Are you really so sure? These two are just family generals and there are thousands of them. They are quite difficult to deal with." Xiang Shaolong said: "No one is better at assassination than me, Lord Hou, don't worry." How could Zhao Mu believe that he was talking in plain language, and said in a deep voice: "This matter needs to be discussed in detail. You'd better build the ranch first and lay the foundation. If I talk to King Xiaocheng about this matter, it will be achieved smoothly." Xiang Shaolong was amused in his heart, he said these words to let Zhao Mu understand that this matter should not be rushed, and seeing that his goal had been achieved, he would naturally not be so stupid as to force him, he nodded respectfully and said: "My humble servant listens to Lord Hou." Command, this is also your majesty's instruction." Seeing that he was so obedient, Zhao Mu was overjoyed and said with a smile, "King Xiaocheng has a great impression of you now, but remember to hurry up with the matter of the ranch. Ha! This move of yours really hit Zhao people's vitals. The people of Zhao need your savior even more." Xiang Shaolong said: "I have already selected the site, and we will proceed immediately tomorrow." Zhao Mu stood up and said: "Come on! Everyone should come too. In addition to the most powerful people in Handan, there are also envoys from various countries who came here for the Eastern Zhou Lord. This is the chance to meet them!" Xiang Shaolong knew that he had become Zhao Mu's confidant now, so he was especially favored by him, so he stood up and followed him to the main house of the Hou Mansion. The two walked side by side in the corridor, and all the servants and servants they met would kneel down and salute. When passing through the large garden in the middle of the Hou's Mansion, a group of singing and dancing girls of up to a hundred people were practicing their dance. For a while, they were dazzled by their beautiful clothes and soft voices. Xiang Shaolong had a sharp eye, and at a glance, he discovered that the instructor who instructed them in singing and dancing was actually Zhao Zhi, so he couldn't help but stare blankly for a few times. The training didn't end when Zhao Mu passed by. Zhao Zhi clearly saw Zhao Mu, but he pretended not to see him, and kept giving orders to make all the beauties dance, and the colorful clothes dazzled people under the light. . Zhao Mu leaned closer to Xiang Shaolong's ear and said, "Have you taken a fancy to her? This girl is called Zhao Zhi, her father is a great Confucian who is virtuous and learned in Zhao State, and her master is a master of swordsmanship. I can't do anything about her." Xiang Shaolong shrugged noncommittally, and continued walking. After passing through the garden, the two stepped onto the long corridor leading directly to the main house in front of the mansion. It seemed that they suddenly became quiet in comparison. A maid came to meet Zhao Mu. When she saw Zhao Mu, she hurriedly avoided the side and knelt down. At this moment, Xiang Shaolong felt a warning sign in his heart, and he naturally held the handle of Xuelang's sword with his right hand. He felt strange, so he couldn't help looking at the maidservant, only to see that her hands were retracted into her wide sleeves, her head was lowered, her kneeling posture was very special, which gave people a strange feeling, as if she could bounce off the ground at any time , making various actions. This is purely an intuition, if Xiang Shaolong hadn't been on his way to Handan, he practiced meditation every night according to the Mohist mentality, the feeling might not have become so keen. Zhao Mu didn't notice anything and continued on his way. Xiang Shaolong felt very contradictory, if this woman came to assassinate Zhao Mu, she would be his own kindred spirit, of course he wanted to keep Zhao Mu now, because not only did he want to capture him alive and bring him back to Qin, but he also wanted to use her to kill Le Cheng He planned and probed into the conspiracy of Eastern Zhou Jun sending envoys to Zhao, but if this woman fell into Zhao Mu's hands, it would be at ease. But at this moment, there is no need to think too much, the two of them have come ten steps away from the maidservant. Xiang Shaolong suddenly moved from the outside to between Zhao Mu and the maidservant, hoping to teach her to retreat in spite of difficulties. Zhao Mu became alert and looked towards Xiang Shaolong. The maid suddenly raised her head, revealing a pretty and strong face, her beautiful eyes shot out fiery hatred, at the same time, she stretched out her hands from her sleeves, and with her strength outward, two white lights shot towards Zhao Mu, one up and one down. Zhao Mu was caught off guard and paled in shock, before he had time to call out and dodge, Xiang Shaolong's blood came out of the scabbard, he slashed up and down like lightning, and accurately knocked two daggers into the air. The female assassin obviously didn't have a third dagger, she screamed and rolled out of the corridor in front of the two of them. Xiang Shaolong chased after him, a black shadow flashed in front of his eyes, it turned out to be a soft whip from the female assassin's hand. He took the opportunity to retreat in front of Zhao Mu, seemingly protecting him, but in fact he was only blocking the way of Zhao Mu who had drawn his sword out of its sheath. Knowing that she had lost her chance, the female assassin rolled into a pile of grass without stopping, and disappeared in the night. Zhao Mu almost bumped into Xiang Shaolong's body, he hurriedly raised his hand to press his shoulder, stopping the charge. Xiang Shaolong looked at the two daggers that had fallen to the ground, the blades glowed blue under the light, obviously poisonous. Zhao Mu still had lingering fears and said: "It's lucky to have you here today, otherwise my life will be lost. Hmph! Those people are all idiots, they don't know anything about the assassin sneaking in." Xiang Shaolong felt relieved, this way he won Zhao Mu's trust even more, and on the other hand, it also allowed the female assassin to escape safely. This was not the first time he had encountered this skilled female assassin.When he left the Marquis Mansion in Zhao Mu's carriage that day, the female assassin misunderstood him as Zhao Mu and threw a poisonous snake into the carriage to assassinate him. I just don't know what deep hatred she has with Zhao Mu, a traitor, and she is willing to put to death, but both times she failed because of herself.However, after Zhao Mu's bad deeds, it is inevitable that enemies will be everywhere. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ The banquet was held in the vast hall of the Hou Mansion. There were more than forty seats, and the "two-seat system" was adopted, filling the entire hall. At this time, Xiang Shaolong already had a good understanding of the banquet etiquette of this era.I was startled when I saw this, I never dreamed that tonight's banquet would be so grand and so crowded. The banquet where the monarch entertains the ministers and distinguished guests must adopt the "single-seat system" of one person for one seat when there are few people. If it is a large banquet with more than 100 people, the "multi-seat system" of more than four people in each table will be adopted. As for the general banquets of ministers, officials and dignitaries, the "two-seat system" is often used. When the two of them came to the hall, they had left the banquet for a while, only Zhao Mu's confidant Le Cheng and Guo Kai, who had a bad stomach, came.The two had a close relationship with Zhao Mu, and they came early to help greet the guests. Zhao Mu disappeared after a few words of entertainment, naturally to blame his subordinates for not doing enough to defend the Marquis Mansion, it seems that someone must suffer. Le Cheng and Guo Kai greeted them cordially, chatted with Xiang Shaolong, first asked about the site selection of the ranch, Le Cheng sighed and said: "This time I am really difficult to be right and wrong. People who recognize the face are vying to attend tonight's banquet, but the seats are limited, alas..." Guo Kai smiled wryly and said, "It's not that I have encountered the same problem. I can only put the responsibility on Lord Hou and teach them to ask Lord Hou directly why they were not listed on the invitation list." Xiang Shaolong was very surprised, and asked himself that he didn't have such an attractive charm, he frowned and asked, "Why is the banquet tonight so lively?" Le Cheng wondered: "Didn't Master Hou tell sir? Ji Yanran, a talented woman who is as famous as the widow Qing of the Qin Dynasty, came to Handan as a guest, and Master Hou was not sure about inviting her, but she agreed without hesitation. Everyone has to come here to see her beauty." Xiang Shaolong's heart trembled violently, his blood rushed up, and he was speechless for a moment.Thank goodness!This peerless beauty is finally here. Guo Kai looked at him in surprise and said: "Ha! Unexpectedly, Mr. Dong is also another 'talented girl fan'!" Xiang Shaolong's attention was completely transferred to Ji Yanran, so he was not interested in talking nonsense with them, so he pleaded guilty and stepped out of the garden through the side door to relieve his excited mood. Thinking of getting together with the beauty in my heart tonight, I feel as if I am in the clouds.How come I want to fulfill my mandarin dream with her tonight.At the same time, she wondered why she was willing to come to the banquet even though she knew Zhao Mu was his great enemy? The sound of hurried footsteps sounded behind him. Xiang Shaolong turned around abruptly in shock, just in time to have a face-to-face with a charming beauty. The beauty was startled, she staggered back two steps, her pretty face turned pale, from surprise to disappointment, she lowered her head, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry! I have admitted the wrong person." Under the dim lights in the distance, what came into view was the sister of the twin sister Huazhong who had a marriage with him, Tian Zhen, a beautiful woman from Yue country. Xiang Shaolong suddenly realized that she must have passed by here, saw his back, and recognized him as Xiang Shaolong, and was only disappointed after seeing him disguised as Dong Kuang. From this we can see how deep and unforgettable her impression of herself is.Feeling sorry for her, she said softly, "It doesn't matter! What's your name?" Tian Zhen's delicate body shook violently, and she covered her mouth and said, "You are really Master Xiang, I will remember your unforgettable voice even in my dreams." Xiang Shaolong was sweating profusely at once, unexpectedly he forgot to change his accent, that is to say, his identity was leaked, and he said hoarsely: "Miss mistake..." Tian Zhen cheered, rushed over, hugged him desperately and said: "I will never forget you even if I die, we don't know how much we are worried about you, now the uncle is fine, I really want to thank God!" Xiang Shaolong knew nothing about her, so he hugged her to the depths of the forest, first kissed her passionately, and then leaned into her ear and said, "Now my real identity is a big secret..." Tian Zhen interfaced obediently: "I understand, even if I die, I will not reveal the identity of the uncle." Xiang Shaolong said in a more emphatic tone: "Even my sister must not reveal this matter." Tian Zhen hesitated for a while, then nodded helplessly and said: "Okay! But she also misses the uncle like a slave!" Xiang Shaolong let go of his concerns, and said in a low voice: "As long as you are obedient and obedient, I will definitely take your sisters away, and I will never break my promise." Tian Zhen was so moved that tears filled her eyes, and she kissed him in the most enthusiastic way, and the touching flesh seemed to be squeezed into his body. Xiang Shaolong's long-suppressed lust immediately blazed up. He only hated that this was not the right time and place. After obsessing over it for a while, the red-faced Tian Zhen reluctantly walked back to the inner house under his persuasion direction. Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly and shook his head before walking to the hall. After walking two steps, a man and a woman walked into the garden through the side door he had come out just now, discussing closely, it was Zhao Mu and Zhao Ya. His heart moved, and he hid among a clump of grass and trees, listening quietly. Seeing Zhao Ya's pretty face tense, she said coldly: "Stop talking, I would never go with that vulgar and rude man, you have so many beauties in your hand, why don't you give them to him, for example Doesn't your favorite Tian family sister, Hua, satisfy him more?" Zhao Mu put his hand around her waist, and said with a sinister smile, "Can you still not forget Xiang Shaolong?" Zhao Ya was stunned, and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, who said I can't forget him!" Xiang Shaolong saw the affectionate state of the two and listened to Zhao Ya's ruthless words, even though he knew that she had to express his position like this, he was still furious, filled with thoughts of resentment and revenge. Zhao Mu stretched out his other hand, hugged her tightly, and said with a smile: "It's best not to think about him anymore. If our six countries form an alliance today, even the Qin country will not escape the fate of being divided up. At that time, I would want Xiang Shaolong to die without a place to bury him, even if he died at that time, I would have to whip the corpse to vent my anger." Zhao Ya said coldly: "You can only say it if you have the ability! Oh!" The clothes were rustling, it was obvious that Zhao Mu was rubbing against Zhao Ya's sensitive parts with the tightness of his body.Xiang Shaolong's eyes burst into flames when he heard this, and secretly hated Zhao Ya for not knowing how to love himself, and humiliating himself like this. Her breathing became uncontrollably rapid, and she said in a trembling voice, "Aren't you going back to entertain the guests?" Zhao Mu laughed lewdly and said, "Don't you want me to entertain you first?" Zhao Ya's powder fist weakly knocked on his back a few times, angrily said: "Let me go!" Zhao Mu said: "You promised me to accompany Dong Kuang, so I let you go!" Xiang Shaolong suddenly realized that Zhao Mu wanted to use Zhao Ya to curry favor with him. Of course, the reason was that not only had he just saved his life, but he had also shown extraordinary vigilance and peerless swordsmanship, which made him look at him differently and rely even more on him. Zhao Mu compares himself to others, so of course he thinks that he must win over him with power, beauty, wealth and other benefits, and Zhao Ya is the best gift he can think of at the moment. Zhao Yaqi said: "Why do you value Dong Kuang so much?" Zhao Mu laughed dryly and said: "It's not that I value him, but your brother Wang has a life, the most important thing is to win over this person, don't you understand?" Hearing that it was King Zhao's intention, Zhao Ya softened a little, and said in a low voice: "Maybe he is not good at women? Otherwise, why did he refuse even the brother king to send him a singer last night?" Zhao Mu sighed: "As long as it's a real man, who doesn't like lust, I think it's because the corners of his eyes are too high, and he doesn't like those singers! How can our Mrs. Ya be the same!" Zhao Ya said coldly: "If the corners of your eyes are high, go after Ji Yanran. What am I, Zhao Ya?" Hearing the sourness in her tone, Xiang Shaolong knew that she was jealous of Ji Yanran, so he couldn't help thinking of revenge. Zhao Mu coaxed: "Ji Yanran is a famous ruthless stone girl, how can she compare to the gentle and affectionate Zhao Ya, don't say too much, I heard that Dong Kuang came out to get some air, please help me find him back! So nervous Why? I don't want you to accompany him into the room tonight." Zhao Ya was silent. Xiang Shaolong knew that there would be no new meaning in listening to it any longer, so he slipped away slowly. Xiang Shaolong was sitting in the gazebo, looking up at the starry night sky, and the sound of Zhao Ya's footsteps approaching from far could be heard in his ears. At this time, he changed his mind about Zhao Ya, and decided to play with her to his heart's content as punishment for her. Zhao Ya came behind him, barely suppressed the dislike for him in her heart, and said in a harmonious voice: "Why is Mr. Dong alone, the guests are halfway here!" With a hoarse voice, Xiang Shaolong still stared at the sky and said, "I don't always like to be busy, look! How charming this sky is, and how close she is to us. We can only recognize the stars in her arms." The way, knowing the season and time. After death, people will return to her deep place. She symbolizes our most lofty ideals, and in the dark dominates the fate of everyone on the earth." Zhao Ya didn't expect such a rough person to know how to say such profound philosophical words, she was stunned for a while, and sat on the stone bench behind him, silent for a while. Xiang Shaolong felt a surge of emotion in his heart, and after sighing, he smiled wryly and shook his head, "Remembering whether it is Mo Di or Kong Qiu, King Wu or Duke Zhou, when they look up, they all see the same sky, how can we not feel The eternity of the sky, the insignificance and ephemerality of human life. Poor most people still can't forget the struggle for power and position. For the sake of the shallow interests in front of them, they will not give up day and night, fighting for life and death. So I, Dong, have never been concerned about the struggle for power and profit. Good impression, I just want to be free to raise my baby horse, and say whatever I like! Fuck his grandma Tiantian, I love her so much, so I want to fuck her like I fuck my beloved woman." Although he uttered three foul words in a row, Zhao Ya felt completely different when he heard them this time, because he endowed these three foul words with incomparably deep feelings and meanings, which became a completely different matter. Zhao Ya said in a low voice: "I'm really sorry that someone insulted Mr. today." Xiang Shaolong shrugged his shoulders gracefully, stood up, turned around, stared at her pretty face with burning eyes, and said with a smile: "Madam sees what I am doing, just let it go, why is there any misunderstanding? Like this night sky, if you just look at it, you may not notice it, but if you look carefully, you will see more and more stars, and the darker and darker the night, each star has its own story. There is no beginning, and there is no end.” Zhao Ya couldn't resist his gaze, lowered her head, and said quietly: "Mr.'s words are so beautiful!" Xiang Shaolong was amused in his heart, no one knew how to win the heart of this slut better than him.Stretching her waist, she said, "Okay! I should also go back to the secular world. I just hope that the time will pass quickly and I can go home and sleep. Isn't the world in the dream more beautiful?" Zhao Ya gave birth to a feeling of Yiyi, and only hoped to hear him continue talking.Suddenly, she felt that even if she wanted to sleep with him, it was no longer a chore.What's more, his majestic body made her think of Xiang Shaolong irresistibly. Does being happy with him make her as intoxicated as being with Xiang Shaolong? She would love to know the answer!
