"Sorry, the number you dialed does not exist. Please check and dial again."

"Sorry……"

Ge Ying held the phone, silently picked up a glass of wine and drank it all.

It was raining heavily on the street outside the tavern. In the gloomy weather, it seemed that even the fine wine had turned sour and smelly.

Ge Ying clenched his hands tightly.

After receiving three pieces of bad news in one day, Ge Ying felt as if he was visiting a grave.

First, the Daze Township Security Department suddenly took action and arrested all adult men over the age of 39, regardless of their identities.

It just so happens that Chen Sheng is thirty-nine years old this year.

Chen Sheng was also asked to leave.

Ge Ying's previous idea was very pure. He would get some folk omens, make a prediction, and then flatter Chen Sheng to be an enlightened person with the destiny, and then plan for big things.

But the Security Department is more hardcore. They directly arrested all the people over 39 years old. Let’s see how you, Ge Ying, brag!

When Ge Ying saw that Chen Sheng was captured, he had no choice but to rescue him!

Ge Ying thought of quicksand.

The Quicksand Organization can help you with anything as long as the money is in place.

But what's strange is that Liusha's contact person mysteriously disappeared, and all of Liusha's contact methods were lost.

In this situation, Ge Ying also understood that he was listed as an unwelcome customer by Liusha.

How is this going!

Since Quicksand didn't work, Ge Ying wanted to mobilize some of Chen Sheng's former subordinates to help Chen Sheng.

But those old subordinates who used to run the mines were all trembling with fear at the sight of the security department, let alone helping Chen Sheng. Someone even revealed to Ge Ying that the special envoy of the King of Chu had handed over what you wrote to the King of Chu. After the King of Chu saw the contents of the reports you wrote, he was very angry and specially dispatched a capable master to deal with the Daze Township incident and resolutely nip any signs of rebellion in the bud.

Chen Sheng, on the other hand, had some basic martial arts skills and a combat power of about 7,000 to 8,000. However, in front of this special master sent by the King of Chu, Chen Sheng could not even finish a single round and was killed instantly and carried away.

More importantly, this expert has already dealt with Chen Sheng, and he has switched his target to you. You’re on your own.

As a result, Chen Sheng not only failed to be rescued, but instead became a lamb to be slaughtered.

Ge Ying felt so sad that he couldn't help but sigh, God is not helping me.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, people were simple and honest, and anyone could rise up in rebellion as long as they created a little momentum.

Nowadays, information is extremely developed, and it has become difficult for a master to create trouble even if he fights against ten thousand people alone.

At this moment, a loud thunder suddenly sounded outside the window!

White thunder lit up half of the sky on the rainy night, and a swordsman wearing an ancient straw raincoat pushed open the wooden door of the tavern.

There weren't many people in the pub. There were a few drunk homeless people on the sofa on the left, a flat-nosed bartender, and Ge Ying sitting by the window.

The straw raincoat swordsman ordered a cup of Chu-brewed Bamboo Leaf Green, held the bamboo tube cup, and came to Ge Ying's side.

Ge Ying looked at the person who came, and the lucky coins in his hand jingled.

Master!

And he is also a master with great murderous intent!

He just killed someone!

He has murderous intentions towards me!

Ge Ying's lucky copper coin is very effective. It is one of the few treasures that Ge Ying can show off. It can bring good luck and avoid misfortune, and it is a harbinger of right and wrong, and it is quite effective.

Under normal circumstances, Ge Ying would run away as soon as the lucky coin rang.

But today, Ge Ying has nowhere to run. The 100,000-strong army of the King of Chu's special envoy is searching for him, there are wanted warrants for him everywhere, and electronic eyes are everywhere. There is nowhere for him to run.

Ge Ying pretended to be calm and sat there, staring at the straw raincoat and swordsman walking towards him.

The swordsman came to Ge Ying's side with the wine in his hand. He looked at the sparse rain outside the window, his eyes deep under his bamboo hat, and said, "Looking at your clothes, you don't look like someone who can't afford to live. Why are you seeking death?"

Ge Ying asked, "Which expert sent by the King of Chu are you? Where is Chen Sheng?"

The swordsman said, "Chen Sheng should stay where he should be. The central figure of this turmoil is not Chen Sheng, but you. Chen Sheng is at best just a pawn used by you."

Ge Ying asked, "So, you want to kill me?"

The swordsman shook the bamboo cup in his hand, "Killing you is the result, but I would rather know the process. How long have you been preparing for this rebellion?"

Ge Ying glanced at the swordsman and said, "You want to get information about your accomplices from me so that you can catch them all in one fell swoop, right?"

The swordsman glanced at Ge Ying and said, "I guess so! Can you tell me?"

Ge Ying looked out the window and said, "I have no accomplices. I am the mastermind. I am the planner of the rebellion."

The swordsman asked, "Can you tell me the reason for your rebellion? Of course, don't tell me that the King of Chu is incompetent and the people are living in misery! This will make me take action against you in advance!"

Ge Ying's eyes, which were originally filled with fear, now had a hint of red light, like a blazing wildfire. "The Chu State is like a house that is extremely dilapidated. At this moment, if someone kicks it hard, the whole house will completely collapse!"

"Then why can't I be the one to give this kick?"

"Everyone has the ambition to become a king and reach the pinnacle of life. I just put my ambition into practice, but I didn't succeed."

“If I had succeeded, this wouldn’t be the situation I’m in now.”

The swordsman said, "The reason why a king is king is because of the convergence of blood, the formation of the pattern, and the general trend. You just want to reach the pinnacle of power. With such a source of motivation, you will never succeed from the beginning."

Ge Ying looked at the swordsman. "Isn't the current King of Chu a greedy and hedonistic tyrant? What's the difference between him and me? What bloodline, what fate, what situation, are all your sophistry!"

The swordsman said calmly, "During the Spring and Autumn Period, the great scholar of the Left School, Zuo Qiuming, wrote a book called Zuo Zhuan. It says in Zuo Zhuan that rites govern the country, establish the state, order the people, and benefit the descendants. Rites are used to practice righteousness, and righteousness brings benefits to the people. It is the great principle of politics. The most important is to establish virtue, the next is to establish merit, and the next is to establish words. Even if it is not abandoned for a long time, this is called immortality."

"The King of Chu may be the same as you now, but he was not the same as you once."

"The former King of Chu had done great deeds for the country. He was superior to you!"

"And if you want to overthrow him, what you have to do is to surpass him first, not to be the same as him!"

"His lower limit is your upper limit. With someone like you, how can you succeed in your rebellion?"

"madness!"

As soon as the two cold words "stupid" came out of his mouth, Ge Ying was shocked to the point that his limbs went numb, his ears were buzzing, and the wine glass in his hand exploded.

Ge Ying looked at the swordsman in front of him. He understood rebellion. He was right. If you want to surpass the other party, you must look at rebellion from a higher perspective.

Rather than just personal interests.

Even if he was lucky enough this time and the King of Chu did not send him to suppress the rebellion, he and Chen Sheng would not get too far.

You do not have a unified program and long-term goals. The arrival of a period of confusion means the arrival of destruction.

The swordsman put down his wine glass at this moment and pulled out a knife from the gap in his raincoat on his back.

This knife is only a little over one foot and three inches long, like a bird's wing, light, thin, fast, and bright!

The swordsman sighed, "I thought I would meet some truly powerful people and great talents on this mission, but I didn't expect that all I met were a bunch of villains! Forget it, forget it, I'll just send you off."

As soon as he finished speaking, the swordsman's short blade was as white as snow, illuminating Ge Ying's vision.

My life is over!

Ge Ying sighed inwardly.

However, after a few breaths, Ge Ying found that his head had not fallen off yet.

Looking closely, there was another person behind the swordsman.

The man was wearing the short shirt of an ordinary outlaw and was stabbing the swordsman in the back with a scabbard sword.

The man's facial features were very ordinary, but Ge Ying had an impression that he had just been drinking with a group of drunkards and fell asleep on the sofa next to him after drinking.

What’s going on, is this drunk guy a master?

The atmosphere in the tavern was extremely weird. The swordsman's knife was pointed at Ge Ying, while the drunk man was pointing at the swordsman with a scabbard.

After the two sides had been deadlocked for several rounds, the swordsman finally spoke up, "Brother, have I ever offended you?"

The drunk said, "I'm sleeping there, and you're here making noises and disturbing my sleep. I have a very bad temper when I wake up. Do you think you've offended me?"

The swordsman asked, "But, brother, how do you kill people with this sheathed sword?"

The drunk laughed and said, "Who says a sword with a sheath can't kill people? Why don't you give it a try? Kill this charlatan in front of you, and then I'll stab you to death with my sword?"

The swordsman said, "Brother, to be honest, I am the commander of the palace guards under the command of the King of Chu, and the descendant of Zuo Qiuming, the Zuo Sect of the Hundred Schools of Thought. People in the martial arts world give me the nickname Zuo Qianhu! Please give me some face. I am performing my official duties. After I have dealt with this man, I will treat you to a drink as an apology."

The drunk said, "No! Get out of the tavern right now, or the Zuomen will be short of a master in the future."

The swordsman thought, "So there is nothing to talk about?"

The drunk laughed and said, "What else?"

As soon as the two men finished speaking, the swordsman suddenly exerted his strength and chopped down with his sword, intending to strike first and kill Ge Ying first.

The long sword was as white as snow and whistling like light, piercing straight through Ge Ying's body.

Ge Ying's whole body suddenly exploded and turned into white smoke all over the sky.

But hanging on the blade of the swordsman was a paper man.

Judging from the appearance of the paper figure, Ge Ying must have cut it hastily while he was talking. It was very sloppy, but also very effective.

The swordsman's eyes lit up, "The art of writing with a planchette! Quite interesting!"

What surprised the swordsman was that the drunk swordsman behind him had disappeared.

The swordsman turned around and looked at the empty back, his eyes becoming more and more focused, "That guy is definitely capable of inflicting heavy damage on me! Even if I have the King of Chu's heart-protecting armor, I may not be able to survive in his hands."

"But he didn't attack me, he just ran away!"

"This guy is so cunning!"

"He knew very well that if he got entangled with me, he would be surrounded, so he just ran away and threatened me."

"He was able to hold back his killing intent and not attack, and he was clearly strong and in an advantageous position but he didn't attack. He is definitely a top-notch expert!"

Even faster, footsteps were heard outside the tavern.

The purple and black palace warriors surrounded the entire tavern. A leader hurriedly ran to Zuo Qianhu and said, "Greetings, sir! I saw some movement and closed the net in advance, but..."

Zuo Qianhu said calmly, "The intelligence was wrong. The other party is not just one person, but has accomplices who are as skilled as me."

The leader hurriedly said, "My lord, you are not injured!"

Captain Zuo went outside and said, "The whole city is sealed off. Ge Ying is wanted. All electronic eyes are turned on. If he's alive, we must see him. If he's dead, we must see his soul!"

The warriors around him all said, “Yes!”

All of a sudden, everyone became busy.

At this moment, in a park lake several thousand meters outside the tavern, two figures emerged from the lake.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the drunkard and Ge Ying who had just escaped from Zuo Qianhu.

"Thank you, sir, for helping me. Ge Ying is grateful!"

"Thank you for nothing! Let's run! That Zuomen Zuo Qianhu has a combat power of at least 50,000 or 60,000! He can kill both of us with one hand!"

"But where can we go? The whole city is now full of King Chu's men!"

"Don't I mean to say that when you rebelled, didn't you think about the way out and the way out? Don't you have a backup plan?"

"Well, no, no..."

"My goodness!"

On the water, the drunk man put one hand on his forehead and couldn't help but said angrily, "I am really convinced. Is this your first time to cause trouble? For such a big thing as rebellion, you didn't even prepare a plan or a way out. If you succeed, I will write the word Liu upside down!"

Ge Ying was stunned for a moment, "My hero, is your surname Liu? May I ask your name?"

The drunk man realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and turned his head to look away.

The drunkard was none other than Liu Bang, the unlucky boy who had traveled all the way to Daze Township.

Liu Bang thought, since I have been named by fate, I might as well give up. I will definitely meet the quest NPC anyway!

Sure enough, after drinking some wine and taking a nap, I encountered a fight.

Liu Bang had also played online games, at least he had played the Abyss Battlefield designed by Qin Feng.

In any game, fighting is a key event to unlock important NPC characters.

If you participate in it, you can get the mission.

Then, Liu Bang met Ge Ying, and Liu Bang also heard the conversation between Ge Ying and Zuo Qianhu.

Liu Bang now understood that his purpose in coming to Daze Township was very simple, to help Chen Sheng rebel, or in other words, to keep Chen Sheng safe.

Then, wasn’t the magic weapon given by Taibai Xingjun also given to Chen Sheng?

Seeing Liu Bang didn't say anything, Ge Ying continued, "Hero! There are electronic eyes and scanning radars everywhere on the shore. You also said that Zuo Qianhu is a ruthless man and we can't beat him. What should we do?"

Liu Bang looked at Ge Ying who had a confused face, and sighed inwardly, how could you come out to cause trouble with your mental quality!

I'm not looking down on you. Just looking at your way of thinking and vision, if you could succeed in your rebellion, that would be truly incredible!

But Liu Bang also understood that his main task was to help them rebel successfully.

For Lao Liu, this matter is difficult, but not too difficult.

After all, Liu Bang has been hanging out in the circle of experts for many years. Who are those people who play with Liu Bang?

Jiangdong's Xiang Yu, Ying Bu and Zhang Han, Han Xin and Zhang Liang...all of them are ruthless guys.

Although Lao Liu is known as a jack of all trades, he has also learned some basic operations from experts. Relying on those skills, it is too easy for him to start an uprising in a novice village like Daze Township.

Liu Bang thought for a moment, pointed at a few fishermen on the shore and said, "See those two fishermen over there who can't catch any fish? Take their fishing equipment and identities, and then I'll arrange for you to start an uprising!"

Upon hearing this, Ge Ying was overjoyed. He finally found his backbone and followed Liu Bang towards the fishermen.

Soon, two dead bodies of fishermen were found in the water, and Liu Bang and Ge Ying changed into new identities and returned to the main city, intending to rescue Chen Sheng.
