Li Shui didn't sleep well all night because Cang Fu came several times and asked him why the calf hadn't come back yet.
Li Wen was also a little puzzled. A calf riding a fast horse could go back and forth in a few hours. Why didn't he see anyone yet?
Is there something wrong with this theater city? Go missing alone?
Li Shui did not send anyone over rashly. After all, it was night and it was dark and unsafe to walk at night.
He comforted Cano and told him to wait one more night and immediately send someone to check the situation early tomorrow morning.
Ao Fu agreed with a sad face. Limped away. Li Shui looked at his right foot and thought: "It can't be so effective, right?"
At dawn the next day, Li Shui called seven or eight strong craftsmen and asked them to ride fast horses and go to the theater immediately. Go find out what happened to Calf and Iron Head.
Originally, Cang Fu wanted to follow, but was stopped by Li Shui. He is too old and weak. This journey has been bumpy. I am afraid that Tietou will be found and Aofu will be in the coffin.
After sending away the craftsmen, Li Shui accompanied Cang Fu at Shang Jun's Courtyard to wait for news.
At this time, a craftsman came to report: "There is an adult outside, standing at the door and refusing to come in. I want you to go out and meet me."
Li Shui asked: "Who is it?"
The craftsman said, "I don't know the villain. He refuses to give his name."
Li Shui waved his hand: "Tell him, the unknown rat is gone."
The craftsman left in a hurry, and after a while, he came back and said, "The person who came is the emissary, Zhao Teng."
Li Shui chuckled: "Sure enough, this person is really stingy. Isn't it just one hundred thousand dollars? Tell him, I invited him this time, let him come in."
After a while, the craftsman invited Zhao Teng in.
Li Shui saw Zhao Teng wearing green cloth clothes and a big bamboo hat on his head, looking like he was in disguise. No wonder she insisted on speaking outside the door this time. It turned out that she was prepared and not afraid of being recognized by others.
Li Shui said a little helplessly: "Brother Zhao, you are already a grown man. Do you think it would be interesting to compete with me like this? You just admit it obediently and you are my best friend. How great is that?"
Zhao Teng said calmly: "I don't admit it, and it has caused a lot of trouble. If I admit it, wouldn't it mean that I will die without a burial place?"
Afterwards, Zhao Teng took out a bundle of bamboo slips and threw them to Li Shui.
Li Shui opened it and saw that the bamboo slip was written by Yan Le, the commander of the theater. The content is to accuse Huaiguzi and Zhao Teng of treason.
Zhao Teng said: "It was getting dim today, and when the city gate opened, there was a man who couldn't wait to enter the city. After entering the city, this man arrived at Zhao Gao's mansion, as if he wanted to deliver a message. After seeing that Zhao Gao's mansion was sealed, he was shocked. Standing on the street looking around blankly."
"My people arrested him and found this letter from him. This drama city commander Yan Le may want to join forces with Zhao Gao to sue you and me. Yan Le married Zhao Gao's daughter, and the two People have always been close.”
Li Shui asked curiously: "Didn't he know that Zhao Gao had fallen?"
Zhao Teng said: "It seems that I don't know yet."
Li Shui sighed: "Information asymmetry kills people."
Zhao Teng also sighed: "I have a reputation for being upright and upright, which is well known all over the world. Why are you still dragging me down?"
Li Shui smiled proudly.
Zhao Teng asked: "What's the best way to banish an immortal?"
Li Shui said: "What do you think His Majesty thinks after reading this confession?"
Zhao Teng thought for a while and said: "First I thought it was absurd, and then I felt that Yan Le didn't distinguish between right and wrong and was ineffective in doing things. Then maybe I felt that... Yan Le was framing you and me."
Li Shui smiled and said, "What if I tell Your Majesty that this confession was obtained from outside Zhao Gao's house?"
Zhao Teng's eyes lit up: "You mean...report to His Majesty immediately? And involve Zhao Gao?"
Li Shui nodded.
Zhao Teng asked in confusion: "I thought you had let Zhao Gao go."
Li Shui was stunned: "Who said I let Zhao Gao go?"
Zhao Teng said: "Zhao Gao entered the palace as a slave and you haven't seen you take action for such a long time. Didn't I let him go?"
Li Shui waved his hand: "I'm waiting for Wang Wan to take action."
Zhao Teng was silent for a while and said quietly: "When Wang Wan and I were drinking yesterday, he said he was waiting for you to take action."
Li Shui: "..."
Well, now no one has to wait, Zhao Gao's son-in-law has taken action.
The son-in-law is half a son. The person who will send Zhao Gao to his death has been found.
Li Shui handed the memorial to Zhao Teng, and then said: "This confession was confessed by my buddy Niu Dao. It seems that they were arrested by Yan Le. I have to go to the theater, otherwise, they will be in danger .”
Zhao Teng hummed: "You and I will split up. I will go to the palace to see His Majesty, and you will go to the theater to save your people."
After the two people discussed it, they left Shangjun's courtyard.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Teng looked at Li Shui next to him in confusion: "Master Huai, didn't you go to the theater? Why did you follow me to Xianyang?"
Li Shui said helplessly: "Are you kidding me? I'm going to the theater alone? If Yan Legou jumps over the wall, won't I die there? Of course I have to call my friend Li Xin."
Zhao Teng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. Finally, he choked out a sentence: "Master Huai is really... thoughtful."
…………
Just when Li Shui entered Li Xin's mansion. The craftsmen have also arrived at Dahuaishu Village on fast horses.
From a distance, they saw the fertile fields of Dahuaishu Village. The seedlings in the fields were green, but there was no farmer working.
Craftsmen, you look at me and I look at you, both of you are a little confused.
They were once farmers, and they knew that there was no room for laziness in farming. If you are not careful, you will go hungry. Why is the atmosphere in the theater so lazy?
After they entered the village, they found that all the strong laborers in the village were sitting under the shade of the trees, looking longingly at the entrance of the village.
The craftsmen were even more surprised.
When the villagers saw the craftsman riding a horse entering the village, they immediately surrounded him enthusiastically and asked with a smile: "Who are you looking for?"
The craftsman said: "Tietou lives here?"
The villagers cheered in unison: "We are really waiting for his accomplices."
Subsequently, these villagers swarmed forward to arrest the craftsman.
The craftsmen were startled, kicked down the first few people, then mounted their horses to rush out of Dahuaishu Village.
However, the villagers, some holding hoes and some holding wooden sticks, surrounded several craftsmen's households.
At this time, if the craftsman galloped wildly, he could rush out, but in this case, the horse would definitely trample several people to death.
They hesitated again and again, but still couldn't make a move. In the end, they were all pulled off their horses and tied up. To be sent to the theater.
The craftsmen shouted loudly: "Why are we tied up?"
The villagers all said, "You are thieves, why can't you be tied up?"
The villagers were quarreling with the craftsmen, and the villagers were also quarreling with each other. The thieves are rewarded with silver. Now the reward is too small and there are too many villagers, so it is a bit troublesome to distribute it.
Finally, Li Zheng stood up and told everyone that after receiving the reward, they would divide it equally according to their heads. The men of each family get a full share, and the women get half. Children and the elderly are not counted.
This distribution method was fairly fair, so the villagers surrounded the craftsmen and walked towards the theater.
As a result, before leaving the village, there was a puff of smoke in the distance.
The villagers squinted their eyes and looked over there. Soon, they saw a large group of people in the smoke. These people were all riding tall horses, wearing armor and carrying swords around their waists. At a rough look, there were probably more than a thousand of them.
The craftsmen suddenly cheered: "It's Lord Banished Immortal, Lord Banished Immortal is here."
The villagers were stunned. The thousand people had already arrived at Dahuaishu Village.
Li Shui took the lead and rushed into the crowd.
When the villagers saw that this man did not rein in their horses at all, and seemed to be killing someone without paying for their lives, they all fled away.
And Li Shui took out the gold medal for immunity from death and shouted loudly: "I have the gold medal for immunity from death. There is no need to pay for killing people. Anyone who dares to act rashly today will be killed!"
When the villagers heard this, they were so pissed that they wanted to hide back in the village. But Li Xin led a thousand soldiers and surrounded them.
Li Shui ordered people to untie the craftsmen and took a closer look. All the craftsmen had bruises and swollen faces. They had obviously been beaten.
Li Shui waved his hand and said to them: "Whoever beats you, call me back immediately. We can set off after the beating."
One of the craftsmen hesitated and said: "There were too many people who beat me just now, I can't remember them clearly."
Li Shui said calmly: "Then hit them all."
The craftsmen responded, and like tigers like sheep, they rushed into the villagers and started punching and kicking them.
The villagers all cried like ghosts and howled like wolves, begging and pleading: "Sir, sir, we are just following the law to report rape."
Li Shui said calmly: "Does it take beating someone to accuse someone of rape? If you continue to make excuses, I will chop your head off."
Half an hour later, all the villagers were crying and crying. The craftsmen finally let go of the bad breath in their hearts.
Li Shui asked again: "Where is Tietou?"
The villagers lowered their heads and did not dare to answer.
Li Shui shouted: "Who is here?"
A man came out tremblingly: "Tietou and Ji Nu were reported and have been taken to the theater prison."
Li Shui asked: "Who reported them?"
Li Zheng pointed to the hemp rope.
Li Shui asked again: "Has the calf ever been here?"
Li Zheng pointed to the hemp rope again: "I was also reported by him and sent to jail."
Li Shui sneered: "Tied."
Several pawns caught up, tied up the hemp ropes, and held them behind the horses.
Li Shui didn't waste any time, greeted Li Xin, got on his horse, and rushed towards the theater.
After Qin Bing and the craftsmen left, the villagers in Dahuaishu Village looked at me and I started to shudder: So, Tietou really entered Shangjun Villa? Today is the banished immortal coming to ask for someone in person?
The villagers were almost crying: It's over, we have offended the immortal.
…………
A few minutes later, Li Shui had already led people to the gate of Xicheng.
Shoucheng's junior official was named Yan Xi, who was Yan Le's cousin. After seeing Li Shui and others from a distance, he immediately drew his sword and shouted loudly: "Who is it?"
Li Shui said loudly: "The Qin Dynasty has relegated the immortal Huai Guzi to the city and wants to see the people in Shang Jun's other courtyard."
When Yan Xi heard about Huaiguzi and Shang Jun's courtyard, he immediately sneered: "Rebel, you are not going to die soon, how dare you be so arrogant? I just caught you to receive the reward, you can meet in the prison."
Li Shui took out the death-free medal and said, "Anyone who stands in my way will die."
Yan Xi was overjoyed: "You want to resist? Then I'll kill you."
He stretched out his hand to draw his sword, but Li Shui was faster than him. He unsheathed his sword and struck Yan Xi fiercely.
The sword cut directly into Yan Xi's shoulder. Yan Xi screamed in pain and fled toward the city in embarrassment with the sword. When the officers and soldiers guarding the city saw this posture, they dispersed in fright.
Li Xin said quietly: "Brother Huai, you are so courageous. I thought you were going to chop off his head with a sword, but I didn't expect that you were going to chop into his shoulder. Well, the blood was flowing like water and the screams were continuous. This would really shock the scene." City people.”
Li Shui said humbly: "No matter where you are, it's a reward."
He spoke modestly, but in his heart he was thinking: "I wanted to chop off my head. Wasn't it wrong?" Go to Baidu to read the latest chapter of "I Was a God and a Hero in the Qin Dynasty" for free as soon as possible.
