Chapter 9
A thin figure, leaning against a small soil bag, looked ahead indifferently.
When Zhang Han saw the young man clearly, his eyes widened as if he had been struck by lightning.
how come……
This young man's expression, eyebrows, and side profile...
And his indifferent, imposing eyes...
How come they are so similar?
This child is at least eight points similar to King Qin Yingzheng.
Moreover, Mr. Wu An raised the child for 20 years.
Will it?
How could it be such a coincidence...
Zhang Han stood at the entrance of the village, staring at Bai Yu all the time, with a surprised expression, he was not the same person as the majestic five-hundred-year-old just now.
Seeing this scene, Liu Le couldn't help scratching his head.
Why does Lord Shadowguard keep staring at that child?Even if he is very powerful, there is no need to be so surprised.
If the adults look at a peerless beauty like this, he can understand.
Naturally, Liu Le did not dare to speak out his doubts.
Bai Yu turned his head to look at Zhang Han, and then turned his head away.
He knew that this should be Qin's army, so he didn't have to worry about anything.
For so many years, he has no close relatives except the old man Bai. It's not because he doesn't like him, but because people are afraid of him.
It may be because the old man Bai must have a relationship with these people, or it may be the influence of the system, Bai Yu has an inexplicable trust and closeness to these Qin soldiers.
A thought suddenly appeared in his mind, he wanted to join the army like the white old man.
But now, he just wants to keep mourning for old man Bai for three days and do his best.
He is the only person close to Old Man Bai.
He should keep filial piety for Old Man Bai.
After a while, Zhang Han also came to his senses.
He just smiled, how is this possible.
How could the child whom King Qin Zhaoxiang ordered to deal with be still alive...
Besides, that child was born with an unknown body, and was cursed even more.
Even if he can barely survive, it is impossible to have such a powerful force at a young age.
Although Zhang Han was still amazed at the resemblance between this young man and His Majesty, his intuition told him that this was impossible and must be just a coincidence.
Then, Zhang Han walked towards the young man.
Looking at the newly piled small soil bag next to him, there is a tombstone next to it, with the words "Tomb of Old Man Bai" written in Qin characters on it.
I couldn't help but frowned, how could Lord Wu An, who had made great contributions to the state of Qin, be buried in such a simple place?
"Young man, Mr. Bai and I fought together on the battlefield."
"I heard today that Mr. Bai passed away, so I hurried over to express my condolences."
"Besides, I got an order from my superiors to bury Senior Bai generously."
Zhang Han tried his best to hide his serious expression and forced a smile, just to avoid disturbing him.
And briefly explained his purpose.
He deliberately didn't tell the old man Bai's real name, and Bai Qi's anonymity here must have his concerns.
So Zhang Han didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
After finishing speaking, Zhang Han just looked at Bai Yu, waiting for him to speak.
Hearing this, Bai Yu raised his head and looked at the leader of the Qin army.
Looking at each other with Bai Yu, Zhang Han was still a little surprised, and couldn't help sighing, this is so similar to King Qin.
But Bai Yu just waved his hand: "I won't stop you if you express your condolences. It's just that the old man Bai wanted to be buried here before he was alive. There is no need for a rich burial. Please respect his wishes."
"And I buried old man Bai here with my own hands. There is no better place than this. Old man Bai will be very happy to know that I dug his grave with my own hands."
Bai Yu's meaning is very simple, no one can touch old man Bai's grave.
This made Zhang Han frowned.
Today he was ordered by the King of Qin to bury Lord Wu An generously.
But the young man refused to give up half a step, and he couldn't say anything.
Moreover, Mr. Wu An has raised him for 20 years, so he may have regarded him as his own child long ago.
Zhang Han must also respect the wishes of Lord Wu An.
"Lord Shadow Guard, there is one more thing I would like to ask you to report to His Majesty."
Suddenly, Liu Le noticed that the atmosphere between Bai Yu and Zhang Han was a bit delicate, so he walked over and said.
"what's up?"
Zhang Han asked with some doubts, after all, he would naturally pay attention to the news to be passed on to His Majesty.
"Since this morning, we have received more than a dozen villagers asking for help."
"The villagers said that thieves arrived in their village and robbed them."
"The last general didn't dare to delay, and immediately rushed to the rescue when he heard the call for help. However, we passed through several villages, all of which were burned, killed and looted by Hu thieves."
"The general found that these Hu thieves were very different from previous years, like some well-trained Hu Jun pretending to be, and we found a military badge from them."
Then, Liu Le presented the military plaque in front of Zhang Han with both hands.
Zhang Han was extremely angry when he heard this.
He looked at the military badge that Liu Le presented to him.
After careful inspection, Zhang Han clenched his fists: "So they are Hu Jun...Damn it."
Liu Le went on to say: "Master Shadow Guard, these Northern Xinjiang Hu troops have been afraid of our Great Qin's strength and haven't set foot on Qin's land for a long time."
"This time I met Hu Jun on such a large scale, I'm afraid it's not that simple."
"The matter is of great importance, and the general cannot make decisions without authorization. Please, Mr. Shadow Guard, tell His Majesty about this matter."
Zhang Han touched the military badge and glanced at his men.
The people of the Shadow Guard immediately understood, and searched for the corpses of those Hu thieves at the entrance of the village.
Then, they found that every horse thief had a military badge on his body.
"My lord, these people have military badges on them."
Hearing this, Zhang Han's face suddenly changed.
Liu Le's guess is true, these Hu thieves are all disguised by the well-trained Hu Jun.
It's just that Zhang Han can't figure out what they mean.
Could it be that Mr. Wu An passed away just now, and these Hu thieves couldn't bear it anymore?
Zhang Han realized that the incident was serious, and he must tell King Qin the news as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Zhang Han said to Liu Le.
"You did the right thing in this matter. I will tell Your Majesty the news immediately and ask Your Majesty to make your decision."
"If you really find out that the identities of these thieves are false, Your Majesty will definitely reward you."
Liu Le was very excited immediately, not only because of King Qin's reward, but because he originally planned to send someone to Xianyang to report his name to His Majesty, and now Lord Shadow Guard just told His Majesty when he returned, which saved a lot of time.
Moreover, if it is really found out that these Hu troops are making trouble in the territory of Qin State, His Majesty will be able to come up with countermeasures more quickly.
Then, Zhang Han put the military plaque away carefully.
Then he turned his head to look at Bai Yu, and held back what he wanted to say.
He came here this time with the task His Majesty gave him, but he couldn't do anything.
Fortunately, he can also rush back to Xianyang as soon as possible to tell His Majesty Hu Jun's conspiracy.
Zhang Han knew that time was urgent and he had to go back immediately. For this young man, he was a master of swordsmanship and had kind thoughts in his heart.
In order to protect the villagers, fighting against the powerful Hu Jun alone is a bit paranoid in character.
But Zhang Han really likes this young man's paranoia.
