The red sun rose slowly from the eastern sky.
I was tired from running around all night.
I turned around and looked at Ying Li, only to see that although he also had a dusty look on his face, he didn't show any signs of tiredness in his eyes.
It was covered with bloodshot eyes, and the muscles on his face were so tight that no smile could be seen.
Feeling my gaze, Ying Li looked at me and whispered: "According to our current itinerary, we can leave Huojing tonight."
Ge Feng yawned and said: "We are tired and tired, we need to rest for a while before leaving."
Ying Li shook his head vigorously and said: "No, we must continue on our way."
Ge Feng said coldly: "If we continue like this, even if we can hold on, if the horses don't eat or drink, they won't have the strength to run away."
Li Nuo looked at me as if asking for help.
I nodded decisively and said: "Rest at the river beach ahead and continue setting off in an hour."
Ying Li said angrily: "It's already an emergency."
I stared into Ying Li's eyes: "Haste makes waste.
If you want to reach Xianyang in the shortest time, you must ensure the necessary rest."
Ying Li and I looked at each other for a long time, and our eyes finally softened.
We rode our horses to the river beach in front, let the horses drink in the river water, and then ate grass to their heart's content by the river beach.
I washed the dust off my face in the cool river water, stood up, took the big cake from Li Nuo, and took a big bite.
I saw Ying Li standing blankly by the river, staring in the direction of the Qin Kingdom in the west.
He didn't know where he was.
Think about something.
I took a big piece of cake from Li Nuo, came to Ying Li's side, and lightly tapped his arm with the tip of my elbow.
Ying Li came back to his senses, showed me a very stiff smile, took the pie and took a bite: "It's delicious."
I laughed, took a step forward, and looked at the western sky side by side with him: "Don't worry, we will definitely reach Xianyang in time."
"Thank you" Yingli's eyes flashed with excitement.
"Why do you say that?"
"My father's matter has made me confused.
Although I know that I should be calmer, I still can't control myself well."
Ying Li whispered.
“It doesn’t matter whoever happens to this kind of thing” A smile appeared on Ying Li's lips: "You go over and call me Lu Xiaogui."
I looked at him in surprise.
"My sister once mentioned you.
I know a little bit about the grudge between you and Ji Mu."
Ying Li really knew about me from Ying Lian.
I sighed softly and said: "Man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.
I didn't expect that Huo Guo's affairs would develop to this situation."
Ying Li said: "Why didn't Ji Mu show up?"
I shook my head.
I didn’t understand this either.
Could it be that Ji Mu had grasped the situation of Huo State before me, and when he saw Jin State coming forward, he quietly chose to retreat.
But then I thought about it, since Ji Mu valued Huo State so much. , would not make such a choice.
It is really difficult to guess what this cunning guy thinks.
After a short rest, we continued towards the Huo-Qin border.
In order to avoid the Huo team’s pursuit, we tried our best to choose remote trails.
Fortunately, Li Nuo was very familiar with the terrain and did not walk too many unnecessary distances.
The closer we got to the Qin border, the more nervous we became.
Li Nuo quietly said to me: "If Ying Li is really deliberately separated this time, I'm afraid there will be many dangers after entering Qin."

I nodded.
The situation in Qin is now very foggy.
Yingli’s goal when he returns to the country is the throne of Qin.
How can his brothers just let it go?
Ying Li pointed forward and said: "After we enter the Qin territory, we turn back to the north.
Libei guard Chongwu is my uncle.
If we want to enter Xianyang smoothly, we must have his help."
"Can it be trusted?"
What I am most concerned about is this matter.
Ying Li nodded and said: "You can absolutely trust it."
Ge Feng couldn't help but said: "There are no absolutes in this world, it's better for us to be careful."
Although he and I had the same general thoughts, it seemed that we didn’t have much choice in the situation at hand, so we whispered: “It’s better for us to be cautious.”
Ying Li nodded and said: "I want to figure out the whole thing first."
The Qin State garrisoned troops in Libei to guard against Bai Di in the north.
Speaking of which, it was only the second line of defense in northern Xinjiang.
The guard general Chongwu was forty-three years old and was Yingli's uncle.
After hearing the news of Yingli's arrival, he personally Come to the military camp gate to greet you.
Entering Chongwu's tent, Yingli could no longer suppress the grief he had felt for many days, and hissed: "Uncle" with two lines of hot tears rolling down his face.
Chongwu also burst into tears.
He held Ying Li's arm and said, "Li'er, it's best if you come back safely."
Ying Li said with red eyes: "Uncle, how did my father die?
He was still fine before I left Xianyang, why did he suddenly Such things. " Chongwu shook his head and said: "I don't know, Xianyang is a long way from here.
After I heard about this, I wished I could return to Xianyang immediately, but I have heavy responsibilities, and Bai Di has been making moves at the border recently.
I am I can’t leave for a moment.”
"Uncle, I want to return to Xianyang immediately."
Chongwu nodded, hugged Yingli's arm and walked aside.
The two whispered something.
Ying Li glanced at me, suggesting that I go out and wait.
Li Nuo and I looked at each other and walked out of the big tent.
We saw a group of about fifty soldiers passing by slowly in the courtyard.
Li Nuo couldn't help but frowned and whispered to me: "Master, are you there?"
I feel like the atmosphere is not right” I whispered: "It's most common for soldiers to pass by in the military camp.
What's wrong?"
Li Nuo whispered: "It's not unusual for a team to pass by.
Pay attention to the eyes of the leading general.
He is always staring at the direction of the tent."
I was slightly startled and quietly looked at the general of the team.
Sure enough, I saw his eyes staring at the big tent from time to time.
Li Nuo added: "If it is said to be a co-training exercise, these soldiers should be equipped with long-range weapons.
Sir, please note that they all wear long swords and light armor, which is obviously suitable for short-range attacks."
After Li Nuo reminded me, I suddenly felt that something was fishy.
At this time, Ge Feng arranged the horses and walked towards us.
I couldn't help but said: "Why did we go there for so long?"
Ge Feng said: "The horses are all placed in the backyard.
I didn't expect that the military camp is so tightly defended.

There are many guards stationed at the back gates."
My eyes widened.
Could it be that Chongwu really wanted to harm Ying Li?
Isn’t he Ying Li’s biological uncle?
Li Nuo smiled calmly and said: "You will know this once you try it."
His hand landed on the hilt of the sword in an exaggerated manner, and he slightly pulled out the bronze sword.
In an instant, the surrounding soldiers all looked at us, Even the team that had passed by us stopped.
All the soldiers held the hilts of their swords at the same time, their eyes extremely wary.
Li Nuo yawned lazily, opened his arms and stretched hard, and whispered: "It seems that our every move is under their surveillance.
If Chongwu really regards Ying Li as a friend, he will definitely not will do this" My heart sank.
Everything I saw before me was no coincidence.
The soldiers' attention was indeed focused on us.
They whispered: "Hold here."
He winked at Ge Feng and returned to the camp.
Seeing Ying Li pick up the tea cup and bring it to his mouth.
I shouted loudly: "No" Ying Li was startled.
At this time, the four warriors in the camp rushed towards me and Ge Feng at the same time.
Ge Feng and I activated at the same time, drawing out our bronze swords to block the samurai's attack.
When Chongwu saw the two of us suddenly rushing in, he snorted coldly: "Block them for me."
He stretched out his hand to grab Yingli's arm.
Yingli had already understood when we rushed into the camp and held the bronze bottle in his hand.
Throwing it at Chongwu, Chongwu drew out the sword from his waist, split the copper bottle in half with one sword, and rushed towards Yingli in large strides.
I was worried that something might happen to Ying Li, so I struck mercilessly.
I used Yue Nu Sword's most exquisite moves continuously, forcing the two warriors back, passing them, and reunited with Ying Li.
Ge Feng repelled the two warriors almost at the same time and came to Ying Li's side.
Ying Li's face was full of grief and anger, and his eyes fixed on Chong Wudao: "Uncle" Chongwu's eyes showed guilt, he bit his lower lip and whispered: "Li'er, just accept your fate."
There was a cry of killing from outside the big tent.
It was obvious that Li Nuo and the soldiers outside the door were fighting.
I winked at Ge Feng, and Ge Feng suddenly rushed towards Chongwu.
Chongwu faced Ge Feng with the bronze sword in his hand.
The two men were of equal strength, and their bodies shook slightly when the two swords came into contact.
Four warriors stepped forward to attack Ge Feng, but I stepped forward to block the way.
At this time, Li Nuo rushed in from outside the tent covered in blood, and six soldiers rushed in behind him.
Li Nuo and I exchanged glances, and at the same time we bullied toward the edge of the tent, slashing with lightning speed with the bronze sword in our hands.
Falling on the rope supporting the tent.
The big tent suddenly collapsed downwards, wrapping all the more than ten people in the tent under it.
When the big tent fell, I used a bronze sword to poke a gap in the top of the tent, and protected Yingli from escaping through the gap.
However, I saw that the big tent was surrounded by Qin soldiers in black helmets, and we were surrounded layer by layer.
In it.
Li Nuo then jumped out from under the tent.
A loud voice said: "Everyone put down their weapons, otherwise we will kill without mercy."
The person who spoke was a young Qin general, wearing black armor and a black helmet with white tassels flying on his head, and his face looked extremely cold.
The Qin soldiers around him all drew their long bows and aimed at us
