In a typical arrest scene of later generations, Chen Xi spoke naturally and without any hesitation. As a result, no one ignored him and there was still no movement.
"Did you fire this crossbow arrow?"
Chen Xi asked, pointing to the crossbow inserted into the man's chest. He had just slipped under the car without knowing what was going on outside.
"No, it came from the car."
"Haha, is there such a thing?"
Chen Xi threw the knife just to disturb the man and get rid of his pursuit. He didn't expect a crossbow to be fired. Chen Xi thought about it and understood the situation. The Chu noble had been staying in the car with a crossbow in his hand to defend himself. , as long as the car door is opened, it will be launched directly, because if it is one of his people, he will definitely say hello first and open the door without making a sound, that is the enemy.
The man is still staying in the car. The principle is just like the children of wealthy people in later generations are often taught: when in danger, lock the door, stay in the car and wait for rescue.
"Haha, still a second generation!"
Chen Xi smiled and said, Zhang Qiaoyun bandaged his leg injury, walked to the car door, and kicked it open. Sure enough, another crossbow arrow shot out. Zhang Qiaoyun had already dodged while kicking the door. At this time, she quickly He rushed into the carriage, put the sword in his hand on the man's neck, and ordered him to get out of the car. The man got out of the carriage, looked at Chen Xi and Zhang Qiaoyun carefully, and said, "Do you know who I am? Who are you? At such a young age, do you have the guts to do such a big thing? Who ordered you?"
The voice was low, with a hint of sternness and arrogance. Although the man was captured, he took his time. Chen Xi did not answer, put a knife on his neck and shouted: "Let's go!"
The two men took him deep into the woods, tied him to a tree, and gagged him. Then they went outside to clean up the scene, throwing the three dead bodies into the woods and pulling the carriage in.
After finishing his work, Chen Xi came to the man and asked, "Tell me your name, identity, and what you are doing in Hanbu?"
The man's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I am the nephew of Lord Linwu of Chu State, named Kui. You can ask your master, don't make any mistakes!"
Chen Xi was shocked when he heard this: "Lord Linwu, Jingyang!?"
Jing Kui smiled proudly: "Exactly!"
Chen Xi was a little panicked. Linwu Lord Jingyang was a general of the Chu State. His reputation in history was slightly worse than the four famous generals, but he was a world-famous figure at the time. He was brave and good at fighting. He was a ruthless character. He was with Wei Wuji in the past. Killed nearly 200,000 Qin troops besieging Handan.
He continued to ask: "Why did Jingyang send you to Hanbu?"
"You answer what I just asked first."
Seeing that Chen Xi was a little flustered, the man felt confident and said calmly, of course Chen Xi would not let him take the lead: "You have surrendered the Han tribe and are preparing to attack the Wei tribe together with the Chu tribe, right?"
Chen Xi didn't talk around Jing Kui and told him his guess directly. The man was very surprised: "Who are you? It's best to report back to your master. This is not something you can handle."
In his eyes, this kid is just a child.
"Who is Jingyang?"
Zhang Qiaoyun on the side was confused and couldn't help but ask.
Chen Xi put his hand on his forehead, feeling a headache: "Jingyang is the general of Chu State, he is very powerful."
This is a giant, Chen Xi, no, the entire Yingguo hometown combined, is like an ant in front of Jingyang.
A proud look appeared on the man's face. In his opinion, this time was just a small accident. He was indeed walking sideways in Yingguo's hometown. This time, in order to cover up others' eyes, and because he was unscrupulous, he only brought two guards with him. When Han came to surrender, no one in the world dared to break up with his uncle casually, except for the king of Qin.
Chen Xi had completely confirmed that his guess was correct, so he pointed the knife at Jing Kui. The tip of the knife almost touched Jing Kui's Adam's apple. Jing Kui's pupils shrank and the hairs on his body stood up. The coldness of the blade was best felt at this position.
"When are you planning to attack Wei?"
"Who said we were going to attack the Wei tribe? The Qin State attacked Hanyang City and Fushu. The leader of the Han tribe, Li Hongbang, wrote to his uncle, begging his uncle to protect the Han tribe. The Han tribe is willing to recognize his uncle as the master. I came here to fight with Li The clan leader negotiates matters related to surrender and counts the personnel and territory."
Jing Kui forced himself to calm down and replied fluently. Chen Xi sneered. He was quite a character. His lies were very reasonable. If Chen Xi hadn't been forty-five years old, he might have believed it.
"ah!"
Jing Kui screamed, and Chen Xi's knife hilt hit Jing Kui's ankle directly. That part was very powerful. Jing Kui was so painful that he broke into cold sweat. He was shocked and angry, and said in a hateful voice: "Xiao Shuzi! What are you doing?"
"lie!"
Chen Xida raised his sword again, and Jing Kui said anxiously: "Stop! The Han army has surrendered to our Chu country and is preparing to join forces to attack the Wei army."
Jing Kui said it readily. Even if the secret was not kept, it had already been implemented.
"Why did the Han army defect to Chu?"
Zhang Qiaoyun's voice was full of anger and confusion. Li Hongbang had a good relationship with his father and was a respectable elder.
"The Qin State captured Yangcheng, which is less than a hundred miles away from Han. Ruyang to the west is Qin's territory. If Qin wants to get involved in Ying's homeland, Han will naturally bear the brunt. We, Chu, want to conquer Ying. Back home, my uncle has sent an envoy to contact the Han Ministry a few days ago. The Korean Ministry is in a critical situation and is willing to surrender to our country. They have sent an envoy to our country and the surrender matter has been negotiated. I am here today to inform them to attack the Wei Ministry."
"when?"
"Three days later."
"How many troops did Chu send?"
"Two thousand four hundred people."
"Who is the general?"
"Uncle's commanding officer, General Huang Qing."
"Will there be any reinforcements in the future?"
"there is none left."
"lie!"
"ah!"
After another heavy blow, Jing Kui almost fainted from the pain. He was so angry that his face turned the color of pig liver. He said angrily: "This is true! Five thousand from the Chu tribe plus two thousand and four from our Chu country. What's more?" Add the Korean tribe for one thousand and fifty, but you still can’t take down a mere Wei tribe?!”
In desperation, Jing Kui brought out important information without hesitation.
"Oh, I don't know if it's true or not. Just smash it and it will be used as a verification code. Don't mind."
Chen Xi explained calmly. Although the atmosphere was tense and solemn, Zhang Qiaoyun couldn't help but laugh out loud. Jing Kui became mad with hatred and cursed in his heart.
Chen Xi was very worried. This situation was like a small sampan being sucked into a big whirlpool. It was really beyond his ability to deal with. He remained silent, lowering his head and thinking hard.
Jing Kui saw Chen Xi's expression change, thought about it in his mind, and slowly said: "Little brothers, you should be from the Wei tribe, are you, siblings? What happened today is just a small matter, don't worry, in today's world Conquests continue, who doesn’t need a few capable friends? Little brother, you are young, smart and decisive, and my uncle admires young talents like this the most!
The Wei tribe will no longer exist. My uncle is famous all over the world and holds great power in Chu State. I can recommend you to my uncle. You can bring your family to Chu State. If you are willing to let me go, today's matter will be treated as such. This has never happened. If you are willing to follow me to see your uncle, you will be guaranteed to be rich and prosperous. I am not just talking nonsense to save my life. Because your sister is so beautiful, she will definitely get all kinds of love from your uncle! By then, we will all become relatives, and this little thing today is not worth mentioning! "
Half threatening and half coaxing, the words were reasonable and full of fire. Zhang Qiaoyun was furious when he heard the words. He pointed a sword at Jing Kui's throat and yelled: "You stupid dog, if you talk nonsense again, I will kill you!"
Chen Xihuo raised his head and remembered the words in the history books: "Jingyang's drunkenness was discovered and controlled by women..."
Thinking of this, Chen Xi suddenly felt relieved, and his frowning eyebrows relaxed. He smiled and said to Jing Kui, "Thank you for helping me solve the problem!"
Jing Kui smiled proudly: "Little brother is a smart man!"
Chen Xi said to Zhang Qiaoyun: "Sister, go to the roadside and see if anyone is searching in this area."
Zhang Qiaoyun looked at Chen Xi strangely. Chen Xi nodded to her and gave her a firm look. After Zhang Qiaoyun left, Chen Xi looked calm and said, "You are right, but my sister has a strong temperament, so I have to persuade her slowly." That's fine. Why not, let's go to Chu State now. Let's take my sister around Yingdu first and let her see the bustling world of Yingdu. We haven't seen anything interesting in the mountains. In this way, Wouldn’t it be much easier to convince her to stay in Chu?”
Jing Kui beamed with joy and said with a smile: "Little brother, I really saw you right!"
"However, we can't go to the Chu tribe. We have to bypass the Chu tribe and go to the Chu country. To be honest, I really can't trust you. If I enter the Chu tribe, I'm afraid of danger."
"If I don't go to the Chu Department, Huang Dashan won't be able to see me, but there will be trouble. This is related to my uncle's plan."
"Well, what I'm saying is, just ask Huang Dashan to see you when you pass by the Chu tribe. When you see him, just say this..."
After the two reached an agreement, Chen Xi helped Jing Kui onto the carriage, still tied up.
"Lord Jingkui, I'm sorry, I'm going to wrong you for the time being."
Chen Xi said apologetically that Jing Kui escaped from death and was so happy that he didn't care about it.
Chen Xi came to the roadside and said to Zhang Qiaoyun, "Can you drive a carriage?"
"Of course I will. I often drive to Hanbu to buy and exchange things."
Chen Xi nodded: "I have a plan, and I need you to obey me in everything. Let's go to Chubu first, and then turn around and come back. Now we'll tie our horses in the woods."
Zhang Qiaoyun glared at him, shook his head and sneered, this kid was up to something again.
Chen Xi sat in the carriage and guarded Jing Kui. The journey was shaky and bumpy, and it was obvious that the road was not easy to walk. Chen Xi did not dare to lift the curtain and look around for fear of being seen. By now, he had reached the junction of Han and Chu. There are people from the Chu tribe on duty here.
Chen Xi got out of the car and cupped his hands towards the guards of the Chu tribe: "My master is Lord Jingkui. He wants to see your clan leader Huang Dashan immediately. You ask him to come over immediately, alone."
