Chapter 267
267 Chapter 267-the art of thieving the heavens
Even King Wei Anli did not have the face to make the Xinling Lord, Wei Wuji, personally welcome them.
Seeing lord xinling standing beside the carriage with a dagger in hand, the city gate was silent for a moment.
At this time, Xia ping ‘an, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, did not show any modesty. He lifted his long robe and directly got into the carriage, sitting on the left side of the trainer.
Lord xinling also got into the carriage and sat on Xia Pingan’s right. He shook the reins and prepared to drive the carriage back to the residence. Lord xinling’s attendant was in the carriage behind him, following closely.
“Young master, I have another friend who is selling meat in a butcher’s shop in the market ahead. I want to pay him a visit and then attend the banquet at your residence!” Xia Pingan said to lord xinling.
Lord xinling glanced at Xia Pingan and smiled. is it the eastern city of Daliang? ”
“En, not bad. Turn left at the intersection ahead!”
Lord xinling drove the carriage and turned left at the intersection ahead. The carriage ran for a while on the road and arrived at the eastern Market of Daliang city.
The place where the meat was sold was a marketplace in the city. It was noisy and chaotic, with small merchants and hawkers everywhere. The moment the Xinling Lord arrived, the entire market was in an uproar, and countless people ran out to watch.
Zhu Zan had a stall selling pork here. He was using a knife to chop bones. Every time he cut, his muscles trembled.
Xia ping ‘an got out of the car and went directly to Zhu Zan’s meat stall. He started chatting with him. As for lord xinling, he was still on the side of the street, standing beside the carriage, waiting with a dagger in hand.
old man, lord xinling has already driven for you, ” Zhu Zan said as he chopped off the bones. He raised his head and spoke to Xia Pingan. I was thinking of asking you to come over for a drink today!
“Hahaha, I won’t drink with you today. I’ll go to lord xinling’s residence to drink!”
“The wine in the Xinling Lord’s residence is better than mine?”
“I’ve never had it before, so I don’t know!”
it’s not good for you to go empty-handed, you’re just eating and drinking for free. Do you want to bring a kidney as a meeting gift, Zhenzhen? ” Zhu Zan joked.
I’m not bringing it. You can bring it for him next time, Yingluo. Xia Pingan and Zhu Zan bragged and chatted with each other. The two of them laughed.
Lord xinling was watching from not far away. The expression on his face was gentle and polite, without the slightest hint of impatience.
Xia ping ‘an glanced at Xinling-Jun and thought to himself,’ this Xinling-Jun’s bearing is indeed incomparable to ordinary people. If an ordinary person were to have a little achievement, they would have to walk with their nose up to the sky. How can they be like Xinling-Jun?
Lord xinling’s attitude did not change, but the attendants who followed lord xinling all glared at Xia ping ‘an and gritted their teeth.
my Lord, the Prime Minister and the generals, the young master is still waiting at the residence for the young master to return and start the banquet. This old man is too outrageous, ” an attendant came to Xinling-Jun and said in a low voice.
“It doesn’t matter. Let them wait a little longer. Today’s banquet is prepared for Hou Yi. If he’s not here, then the banquet will be meaningless. An extraordinary person has his own extraordinary abilities!” Lord xinling said calmly.
Xinling-Jun waited for a while before Xia Pingan ended his chat with Zhu Zan and walked over. I’ve troubled young master to wait for a long time. We can go now!
“Sir, please get in the car!”
Lord xinling respectfully invited Xia ping ‘an into the carriage, then drove the carriage back to the residence.
……
Ten minutes later, Xia Pingan followed lord xinling to his residence.
In lord xinling’s residence, a grand banquet was indeed being held today. Many of Daliang city’s nobles and important figures were seated at the banquet. Those people had been waiting for the banquet to start for a long time. Finally, they saw lord xinling bring an old man with white hair and a white beard in tattered clothes to the banquet. Lord xinling even allowed the old man to sit at the main table beside him. The group of people looked at each other.
everyone, this gentleman beside me is hou Yuan, the Yi gate supervisor of Daliang city, and also the virtuous man of Wei, Lao Ai. lord xinling introduced Xia Pingan to the people at the banquet, as well as the important figures who were attending the banquet.
Xia Pingan was calm and composed at the banquet. She drank and ate without restraint. The dignitaries of Daliang country were all amazed.
After the banquet, Xinling-Jun personally sent Xia Pingan out of the residence. Xia Pingan then said to Xinling-Jun, ” thank you for your hospitality today, young master. However, I have done enough for you today. I was originally just a small character guarding the door. Now that you have come to welcome me, I should not have visited my friends. I only visited my friends to help you build your reputation. Others saw that your carriage had stopped in the streets for a long time for a small character like me. Since young master was so polite to a nobody like me in public, everyone knows that young master is a generous person and treats scholars with courtesy. If young master wants to recruit more scholars, the hearts of the people will definitely be United and everyone will respond!”
Hearing Xia Pingan’s words, the Xinling Lord Wei Wuji was stunned for a moment. Once again, he bowed to Xia Pingan and thanked him, ” I didn’t expect Mr. Hou to have such intentions. Thank you, Mr. Hou, for helping me!
although Zhu Zan is a butcher, he’s brave and smart. He’s a hero hidden in the market. If you can subdue him, he’ll definitely help you!
Lord xinling thanked him again.
After leaving the Xinling Lord’s residence, Xia ping ‘an continued to work as his Yi gate supervisor. When he had time, he would go to Zhu Zan and a few of his old brothers for a drink. The salary of the Yi gate supervisor position was also mostly used to help the family members of his former comrades.
That Xinling Lord visited Zhu Zan a few times, but he remained unmoved and continued to slaughter pigs and sell meat in the streets.
Xia Pingan was waiting for an opportunity, and she was also secretly preparing. She was using her friendship to find someone.
In fact, they didn’t have to wait for long. In less than half a year, the thing that Xia ping ‘an was waiting for happened-the Qin Army broke the Zhao Army in the Battle of Changping and killed 400000 of the Zhao Army. They shocked the world and then surrounded Handan. The Zhao Army was in danger.
Lord xinling’s sister was the wife of Lord Pingyuan, the younger brother of Prince Zhao Huiwen. She had sent letters to Prince Wei and lord xinling many times, asking for help from Wei.
Under such a situation, the Wei country couldn’t sit by and watch the Zhao country be destroyed by the Qin country. Thus, the Wei King sent general Jin di to lead 100000 Wei troops to save the Zhao country.
However, the nonsense came. The King of Wei was timid and hesitant. When the King of Qin Zhao knew that the Wei State was helping the zhao state, he immediately sent an envoy to Daliang and told the King of Wei that the Qin State would be able to take down the zhao state in a day. If the Wei State dared to help the zhao state at this time, the Qin Army’s next target would definitely be the Wei State.
The moment he heard the Qin envoy’s words, the King of Wei peed his pants. He immediately sent an envoy to catch up with Jin di and had him stop his Army at Ying city to observe the situation.
The state of zhao had been waiting for the Wei Army to come and save them. When they saw that the Wei Army had stopped at Ying city, Lord Pingyuan became anxious and immediately sent an envoy to Daliang.
……
On that chilly evening, Xia ping ‘an stood at the Yi gate and watched as the second wave of Zhao emissaries, about 70 people, rode on horses and pulled carriages. They were travel-worn and tired as they slowly entered Daliang.
The messenger from the state of zhao entered Daliang and stayed in an Inn. After that, a horse carriage rushed to the residence of the Xinling Lord.
The messenger from zhao state had just arrived at Lord Pingyuan’s residence. In less than 20 minutes, a green-skinned man from the city ran to Xia ping ‘an and told him the news.
“Uncle hou, the messenger from Zhao has already gone to the Xinling Lord’s residence!”
“Alright, I know!”
Xia ping ‘an gave the green-skinned person some money. The green-skinned person thanked him and left. After that, Xia ping’ an left the city gate and bought some wine before going to Zhu Hai’s house.
Zhu Zan was stewing pig trotters at home, and Xia Pingan came just in time.
As they ate the pig trotters and drank the wine, Xia Pingan said to Zhu Zan, ” don’t use your pig slaughtering knife anymore. It’s time to take out your hammer. If you don’t use it now, it will rust and you won’t have the chance to use it again!
Zhu Zan put down his wine bowl and looked at Xia Pingan with bright eyes. He only said one word, ” okay!
“Come out with me after dinner to kill someone!”
“Kill who?”
“A person who should be killed!”
“Alright!”
After the two of them finished drinking, they left Zhu Hai’s house. Xia Pingan brought Zhu Zan with him and left Daliang country in the cold wind on a horse.
After searching for several months, Xia ping ‘an had already locked onto that person’s tracks. Today, it was time to take that person’s head.
……
At the same time, in the Xinling Lord’s residence, the messenger of the zhao state was kneeling in front of the Xinling Lord, reading the letter from Lord Pingyuan. Zhenzhen won, so she offered herself as a betrothal partner. With young master’s righteousness, she can not help people in their difficulties. Now that Handan has surrendered to Qin and Wei can’t save him, young master Anzai is really anxious! Young master has easily won and abandoned her to surrender to the Qin Empire. Do you not pity young master zixie?”
Lord xinling looked guiltily at Lord Pingyuan’s envoy and sighed. it’s not that I can’t save him, but I can’t convince the king. In the past month, I’ve gone to the palace several times to see the king and told him how powerful he was, but the king didn’t listen. He was afraid that Qin would take revenge, and now the king doesn’t even want to see me!
“If young master can’t save the state of zhao, then who in the world can save the state of zhao?” The messenger from the state of zhao laughed bitterly, ” could it be that young master can bear to see the state of zhao and young master’s sister sink under the iron cavalry of the state of Qin? ”
Hearing the words of the Zhao Messenger, the Xinling Lord said generously, ” although I can not convince the king, I will not sit by and watch Zhao die. I swear to fight to the death with Qin. If the Ying city Army does not move, I am willing to bring my men of sacrifice to Handan to save Zhao. I will fight to the death with the Qin Army, even if I have to die!
He didn’t expect lord xinling to be so righteous. The Zhao Messenger cried and knelt down again, ” lord xinling is so righteous. I am willing to lead the way to Handan.
The reason why xinlingjun wanted to bring his men of sacrifice to save Zhao was not because of a whim, but because he had lost all hope in the King of Wei. He had no other choice. The King of Wei was afraid of Qin and was frightened. He ordered the Army to not move. Now, the whole world was watching the Wei, and the entire Wei was watching him. If he did not save Zhao, not only would the Wei be able to survive after Qin destroyed Zhao, he would become the laughing stock of the world. A person who could not even save his own sister, how could he be righteous? What kind of reputation does he have?
That night, the Xinling Lord’s residence was not peaceful. The neighing of horses could be heard at any time.
On the morning of the second day, more than a hundred horse-drawn carriages drove out of the Xinling Lord’s residence. The people on the horses carried bows and armor, and their auras were heroic.
Since the Wei Army did not move, lord xinling personally led these men of sacrifice to Handan to save Zhao, facing the ferocious Army of Qin.
When lord xinling walked out of the Yi gate with his guests, he saw Xia Pingan stomping his feet at the city gate, breathing to warm his hands.
Lord xinling dismounted from his horse and bade Xia Pingan farewell. Mr. Hou, I’m afraid I won’t be able to return from saving Zhao. I’ve come to bid you farewell!
Xia ping ‘an smiled. young master, work hard. I’m old and can’t do it anymore. I won’t go!
Lord xinling forced a smile, mounted his horse again, and left with his men.
On the way, lord xinling felt more and more uncomfortable. He felt like he had made a mistake. Lord xinling thought, ” everyone knows how I treated Hou Yi. Today, I went to Zhao to die, but Hou Yi didn’t say a word. Did I do something wrong? ”
Xia ping ‘an was at the city gate, watching lord xinling leave. He knew that lord xinling would definitely return.
As expected, not long after, he saw lord xinling return with his men. When he saw him, lord xinling dismounted and sincerely asked for guidance again.
Only then did Xia ping ‘an say, ” young master respects and values people, and his reputation has spread all over the world. Now that young master is in trouble, he has no other choice but to bring these few people to fight the Qin Army to the death. This is like using meat to fight a Tiger. What effect can it have? That Tiger is eager for young master to send himself to his door. Young master has thought about how big of a blow it would be to the Wei country if you die. In the future, how many people in the Wei country can resist Qin? young master’s actions are not wise, why do you still need a hanger-on?”
Upon hearing Xia Pingan’s words, lord xinling’s forehead was covered in sweat. He hurriedly asked Xia Pingan if there was any other way.
Xia ping ‘an directly brought lord xinling to a secret place near the city gate and said to him, ” I heard that the Tiger tally that can mobilize the Jin army is with the king. Other than the king, the only person in the entire Palace who can get close to the Tiger tally is the king’s most beloved ruji. As long as young master can make ruji steal the Tiger tally for young master, young master can take the Tiger tally to the Jin army and mobilize the Army to save Zhao from its disaster. Isn’t this better than young master leading hundreds of men of sacrifice to die in Handan?”
When lord xinling heard this, his spirit jolted, but he frowned again. ruji is the most favored by the king, so how can I let ruji do such a dangerous thing for me? if the king finds out about this, ruji will be sentenced to death!
Xia Pingan sighed, ” young master, do you know that ruji’s father was killed three years ago? ruji offered a reward for the person who killed her father. The king has given the order to capture him, but the person who killed ruji’s father has never been caught? ”
“I’ve heard a little about this matter!”
“I was told that although ruji is a woman, her moral integrity is not inferior to that of men. As long as young master could bring the head of the murderer of ruji’s father to ruji so that ruji could take revenge for you and request ruji to steal the Tiger-shaped tally for you, ruji would definitely repay you with my life!”
When lord xinling heard this, he was both surprised and happy, but he was also worried. the person who killed ruji’s father has already been on the run for three years. Where can I find him in such a short time? if this time is delayed and Zhao can’t hold on, everything will be in vain!
Hearing this, Xia Pingan clapped his hands. Zhu Zan, who was holding a box, pushed the door open and walked in.
thank you, young master, for your hospitality and love. I can’t repay you. I’ve found ruji’s enemy. His head is in the box. Young master, you just need to take that head to see ruji. I’m sure ruji will be able to steal the Tiger tally!
Lord xinling was overjoyed. He opened the box in Zhu Zan’s hand and saw that there was indeed a head in the box. The face was clear, and it should have been killed not long ago.
“Thank you for your kindness, Sir!”
“Young master has taken the commander’s seal. Remember that when the general is outside, he will not obey the emperor’s orders. When you reach bamboo city, young master can bring Zhu Zan to see Jin di. If Jin di obeys young master’s orders after seeing the commander’s seal, everything can be discussed. If Jin di does not obey young master’s orders, Zhu Zan can help young master kill Jin di and help young master control the Army.”
When lord xinling heard Xia Pingan’s words, he cried, ” Jin di is an old general of the Wei Kingdom. He’s loyal to the Wei Kingdom and has great prestige. I only have a commander’s seal with me, so I’m afraid it’s difficult to make him listen to my orders. I can only kill him.
Xia Pingan also sighed and did not speak.
Although lord xinling was sad, he recovered in the blink of an eye. At this time, he could naturally tell what was more important.
thank you for your guidance, teacher. I’ll go see ruji now. Please help me, Zhu Hai!
“I’m willing to help young master!” Zhu Zan said in a deep voice.
Very quickly, lord xinling brought Zhu Zan and several attendants into the city again to handle some matters.
Although ruji was in the palace, it would not be difficult for lord xinling to see her.
After meeting ruji, lord xinling took out the head of ruji’s father’s murderer and offered it to ruji. Ruji recognized the person and wailed. After lord xinling stated his request, ruji nodded and agreed without hesitation.
That night, lord xinling returned to the city with Zhu Zan and a few attendants. He once again rode a horse and hurried out of the city to bid Xia ping ‘an farewell at Yi gate.
Hou Yuan’s plan had succeeded. After getting the commander’s seal, the Xinling Lord had already brought his men of sacrifice to Zuo city.
……
Xia Pingan stood guard at the city gate and watched helplessly as lord xinling left with his men. In his heart, he was muttering, ” shatter, shatter, shatter ”
This world was still fine, and there were no signs of it being shattered.
Xia ping ‘an waited for an entire day, but the world in the realm Pearl did not shatter.
After waiting for two days, the world of the realm Pearl still did not shatter.
After waiting for three days, the world of the realm Pearl still did not shatter.
This time, Xia Pingan’s heart started to beat faster.
Hou Yuan was the mastermind behind the Xinling Lord’s theft of the talisman to save Zhao. He was a role model for a small figure to change history and the fate of a great country. Hadn’t hou Yuan’s mission been completed? why was the realm Pearl still not broken?
In history, when hou ying sent off the Xinling Lord, he had said,’officials should obey, but old people can’t. Please count the days of your journey to the day of your Army. I shall commit suicide in the northern village as a gift to you.”
Xia Pingan did not say this.
Did he really have to commit suicide?
If he were to commit suicide in this realm Pearl, would he really die from the fusion failure?
Even though Xia Pingan was used to seeing things, he still hesitated at this moment. Even in the realm Pearl, there were not many people who had such courage.
Most importantly, Xia Pingan didn’t know what would happen in the real world if he really did what hou ying did.
In reality, if one were to commit suicide, it would be completely hopeless. Only an idiot would do that. Even in the realm Pearl, death meant that the fusion had failed, and under normal circumstances, one’s head would explode.
Houying Qianqian, Houying Qianqian was the role model of Huaxia’s taxi industry, how could she be someone who was afraid of death?
Xia ping ‘an struggled and hesitated for a long time. In the end, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet. He came to the Yi gate, facing the North. With a clang, he pulled out the copper sword at his waist and made up his mind.
Fresh blood spurted out.
In the next second, before Xia ping ‘an’s consciousness dissipated, the world of the realm Pearl finally shattered.
Xia Pingan laughed out loud. Hahaha, he was indeed not dead.
……
In the secret chamber, after an unknown period of time, Xia ping ‘an finally opened his eyes, and a bright light flashed across them.
Hou ying’s realm Pearl was too terrifying.
After the fusion, Xia Pingan realized that the upper limit of his godly power in his secret altar had increased by 360 points, reaching 3118 points. The explosive increase in godly power brought about an extremely strong effect, making his body feel like it was floating.
In the secret mandala, there was also a bronze embossed of lord xinling saving Zhao. However, the main character of the relief was not lord xinling, but a small official of Yi gate in Daliang, the capital of Wei. In this story, lord xinling had become a supporting character.
On the embossed, hou ying’s body glowed with a strange glow. It was the summoning position of this realm Pearl.
The word ‘thief’ in the mountain of golden characters was immediately lit up by this embossed.
Xia Pingan felt the effect of the ring of light and was shocked.
F * ck!
The effect of this glow was actually an extremely powerful summoning secret technique called the ” heaven stealing technique. with this technique, there was nothing that could not be stolen. From the small things and money on the other party, to the medium level, it could steal items from the other party’s spatial equipment. The most awesome thing was that it could even steal the other party’s luck and divine power.
The most important point was that this heaven usurping skill could be used without anyone noticing.
Stealing fate? Stealing things from a spatial equipment? God of stealing power?
Xia Pingan was stunned for a long time. He swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva and once again felt the information in the circle of light. Only then did he confirm that he had not made a mistake.
This hou ying realm bead is really too awesome!
Xia ping ‘an calmed down for a while before she retracted her gaze from the temple in the secret altar.
He looked at the time. It was still early, so Xia Pingan took out another realm Pearl and prepared to fuse.
The new realm Pearl that he took out had the words ” zang Wenzhong ” written on it. This was a realm Pearl that could make a Summoner pray for rain. It was very expensive. When he heard the words ” pray for rain ” and saw the words ” zang Wenzhong “, Xia Pingan already had a plan in mind and knew what this realm Pearl was about.
He pricked his finger and dripped his blood. Soon, Xia Pingan was wrapped in a cocoon of light.
Xia Pingan opened his eyes and found himself in a Hall.
On the throne in the hall sat a man, and beside him were two rows of ministers.
this year, Lu is suffering from a severe drought. I’m preparing to set up a sacrificial Hall for Fen Wu and Chi to pray for rain. What do you all think? ” The one who said this was none other than the one sitting in the main hall. He was none other than the Duke of hell Lu.
Burning witches and witchcraft worships the heavens for rain. They burn people to pray for rain. The tradition of burning witches in the Western Middle Ages was actually learned from China. witchcraft and witchcraft ” were actually both people. Witchcraft was a witch, and witchcraft and witchcraft were people who were disabled with bent leg bones and back bones.
In ancient times, people would be burned to pray for rain when there was a great drought.
I object! Xia Pingan took a step forward in the main hall and said loudly.
