Chapter 5 Assassin

Meng Tian led four soldiers as Ying Zheng's guards, two of them in front and two of them behind, and went to the bathing place together.

"Meng Tian, ​​how old are you this year?" Ying Zheng kept looking at Meng Tian who was following closely behind his right shoulder, especially the bronze sword shining with golden light on Meng Tian's waist. After so many years of wandering, Ying Zheng had only seen the Binghan sword light in his dream, but he had never touched the real sword in his own hands. He was thinking about the sword on Meng Tian's waist. Ying Zheng really wanted to take it over and play with it, but Ying Zheng was not used to the kingly aura of the superior at this time, so he could only speak first and have a condom of friendship with Meng Tian.

Meng Tian was thinking about how to chat with Ying Zheng. When he heard Ying Zheng speak, he felt relieved. Facing the future emperor of the age, Meng Tian calmly put too much pressure on himself. "I am exactly nine years old this year, born in the 48th year of King Zhaoxiang, which is the time of the Battle of Changping." Meng Tian tried his best to open up the topic, not only reporting his age, but also mentioning the Battle of Changping and King Zhaoxiang of Qin.

"So, you and I are still born in the same year!" The same age can bring the two closer together. Ying Zheng felt that it was great to have friends like Meng Tian just returned to the completely unfamiliar Qin State. His childhood friend Ji Dan tried every means to return to Yan State. Ying Zheng's heart was already lonely. "My mother told me that I was born in the first month of the 48th year of Gao Dafa. In short, I am also nine years old this year."

Ying Zheng spoke with a strong Handan accent. Fortunately, while Qin and Zhao were fighting for many years, the exchanges between the two countries were frequent. Many people from Zhao fled to Qin with their families in order to avoid the war. The Hakka generals of the Meng family had no family and had no family. They were both old friends of Qi who defected to Meng Ao, and guests of Zhao who were unwilling to be satisfied with the status quo. Meng Tian could understand Ying Zheng's Handan dialect and could speak with him. Hearing Meng Tian switch to Handan dialect to communicate with him, Ying Zheng felt more relaxed and talked more.

"But over the past few years, Qin and Zhao have been fighting almost every year, and my mother and I have a hard time." Looking back on the past displaced, Ying Zheng felt a little sad and even more angry. He hated Yi Ren for abandoning their mother and son, and also hated the Zhao people for venting their mother and son, and killed his mother's family without saying anything.

"In the chaotic times of the Warring States Period, countries attacked each other. For the survival of the country, the people of Zhao were also anxious. However, it was not easy for Qin. The source of troops and food were consumed, and both countries wanted to take a break first." Ying Zheng could achieve his later achievements, and the contributions of the people of Zhao were also given to him. Mencius said that if God was to give a great responsibility to this person, he must first work hard and make his muscles and bones hard. It makes sense. He wandered on the streets of Handan, and Zhao was persecuted and the day was in danger. Ying Zheng's mind became particularly tenacious. Without feeling the favors of the people of Zhao, Ying Zheng naturally had no feelings for Zhao. Meng Tian remembered that in later Europe, when he returned to Russia from Prussia, he regarded himself as a subject of Prussia and safeguarded Prussia's interests everywhere.

"During the Battle of Handan, I saw with my own eyes that many people in Zhao died in front of me, including men, elderly, weak, women and children, and when food is short, some people even secretly cooked the bodies that had just died." Ying Zheng lowered his voice and sighed, "If there was only one country in the world, there would be no country attacking each other, and people would not suffer from war!"

Well, beloved! Ying Zheng, who is passionate about unification, realized that the world is united and the unity of the nations is the root of war. Thinking about the Europeans where there are so many countries and frequent wars in the future, it is quite normal, and Europeans are not surprised. It is precisely because of seeing the cruelty of war with their own eyes that Ying Zheng has a vague sense of unity in his heart, that is, to stop war and restore peace to the world.

"Young Master said it right. The nations have been fighting for so long, and the people have died countless times. If the world can be unified, there will be no war between the countries again......"

What Meng Tian didn't know was that it was precisely because of his conversation with Ying Zheng that Ying Zheng's sense of unity became clearer. The world was full of disputes, and there were kings and princes. Perhaps, Ying Zheng's ideas were not so clear now, but at least he had the intention of resisting the feudal system of the countries.

Meng Tian followed Ying Zheng immediately, and the two of them chatted while walking. Ying Zheng's status was not yet clear at this time. After returning to Xianyang, they had to fight to ascend to the position of prince. Ying Zheng intended to understand the situation from Meng Tian's mouth. Meng Tian naturally knew everything and said everything, and carefully introduced the customs and customs of Qin to Ying Zheng. Finally, Ying Zheng spoke as he wished, borrowed the Hanquan sword from Meng Tian, ​​and played with it carefully, unable to put it down.

Dali County has a population of more than 10,000 households, and Dali is the county seat. The streets in the city are wide, and pedestrians consciously walk on both sides. Only those who are in business can use the road in the center. In this way, the efficiency of handling business is greatly improved, but if a thief attacks, it will become a conspicuous target.

At the corner of the street, there is a second floor of a wine shop, a window, three pairs of eyes staring coldly at Ying Zheng and his party who were slowly coming. This is the only place to go to the bathing place of the higher nobles, and they have been waiting for a long time.

"Happy, you two are responsible for restraining the warriors guarding the front and back." The leader-like assassin touched Chu Jian on his waist. This was his habit of preparing to assassinate. "Leave the target person to me to deal with. Once you succeed, evacuate immediately!"

The two people named Yuki nodded heavily, "Da, don't worry, it may take some effort to kill the guards, but it's just to hold them back, and there's no problem!" They thought that with Da's ability, the one who assassinated was only a half-grown child, even if he was a prince, under Da's sword, the prince and the common people were absolutely equal.

Meng Tian suddenly felt a hint of uneasiness in his heart. Things like murderous aura may only exist in martial arts, but those who crawled through blood always have a kind of intuition about danger. This intuition is hard to explain and cannot be explained, Meng Tian chose to believe in his intuition.

"Everyone please be careful!" Meng Tian reminded him, looking left and right, and found that there were fewer pedestrians at the corner of the street in front, which formed a blind spot of perspective. Meng Tian had participated in anti-terrorism training in his previous life and knew that this was the best place for the attack. "Young Master, be careful, there may be danger!"

Meng Tian retrieved the Hanquan Sword from Ying Zheng. When he saw Meng Tian's serious expression and was facing a great enemy, Ying Zheng felt nervous and couldn't help but be on guard secretly. The future emperor of the eternal world cannot die like this. Meng Tian protected Ying Zheng on the right side. If someone attacked him, he would definitely face him first.

As soon as I entered the corner, I heard a clamor, and a window facing the street broke open instantly. Three men in green jumped down, were in mid-air, quickly drew out their swords. The goal was clear. The two rushed towards the warriors guarding the front and back, and one rushed straight to the middle of the team, Ying Zheng, who was still a little surprised. When he was in Zhao State, Ying Zheng had experienced the pursuit of the people of Zhao State, but when he arrived in Qin State, why would anyone still come to chase him?

If Meng Tian had not been reminded by Meng Tian, ​​he would have been suddenly attacked, and there would probably be no future First Emperor. The warrior who was on guard had responded quickly and pulled out his equipped Qin sword to fight with the assassin. Some warriors were worried that Meng Tian wanted to rescue him, but they were entangled by the assassin.

"The bold thief dares to assassinate in the street!" Meng Tian drew his sword and scolded loudly. These assassins were often routine offenders, with accurate scouts and silent. They were not like newbies who had just debuted. They must boast loudly. Meng Tian did not expect his scolding to arouse the conscience of the assassin, and then turned his head and bowed, hoping that someone could find the thief committing the crime. According to Qin's laws, if a person with a hundred steps was found, he would be punished afterwards if he did not perform rescue. Morality may be pale and powerless in the face of violent crimes, but once the law was stipulated, the Qin people firmly implemented it without fear of no one lending a helping hand.

When Da saw Meng Tian draw his sword to block his footsteps, his eyes were both stunned and a little admired. However, when a child, who was eight or nine years old, had his first reaction to the sneak attack, was not to escape, but to draw his sword to meet the enemy. The Meng family really received the favor of God Haotian and was able to make outstanding achievements from generation to generation.

"Meng Tian, ​​don't blame me. If you want to blame, you Mengshi will blame you for choosing Ying Zheng!" Thinking of the employer's explanation, a cold light appeared in Da's eyes. As long as Ying Zheng can be killed, he will kill whoever blocks him. What can Mengshi do? The most important thing Qin State lacks is a general. As long as Prince Cheng Chuang becomes the King of Qin, are you still afraid that you will not be able to find a brave man to fight for Qin?!
