Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Yang Ming took out some money and a set of equipment from several corpses and headed towards Taihang Mountain.

He didn't know how determined Xue Nan's vicious mother was to silence her, but he didn't dare to gamble because it was related to his own life, and all he could do now was to be cautious.

And Taihang Mountain was his last choice.

Nowadays, heavy snow covers half of Zhao State, and the Taihang Mountains are absolutely forbidden areas. The Taihang Mountains are already extremely dangerous, not to mention that they are covered with snow and the almost non-existent roads are hidden under the snow, making it even more difficult for humans and animals. Go, only birds can move freely.

"Anyway, let's hide in the Taihang Mountains for a few days first, and then think about the rest." Yang Ming thought about it and quickly headed towards the Taihang Mountains.

If he hadn't followed his father into the Taihang Mountains for hunting since he was a child, he would really not dare to enter the Taihang Mountains at this time.

By noon, Yang Ming had entered Taihang Mountain.

He was lucky, there were no more ambushes along the way, and no pursuers came after him, but he was also unlucky, because he was not the only one who wanted to escape into the Taihang Mountains at this time.

At the only entrance to Taihang Mountain, Yang Ming looked at Yiqi who appeared in front of him, and the trace of relaxation that had just stretched out on his face had solidified.

Yang Ming was no stranger to that ride. The old man on the horse was the old housekeeper of the Zhao Manor. As for the girl wrapped in a layer of soft armor by the old man, Yang Ming had also seen it before.

But that's not the key. What's important is that not far behind, there are dozens of riders galloping towards them, obviously coming just for the old man and the snow girl.

An old man and a young man met each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. But at this time, no one of them cared about the other and rushed straight up the mountain path. They were all locals and knew the way to enter the Taihang Mountains. trails.

Yang Ming used his bow as a staff and carefully walked on the snow-covered path. On one side was a mountain as tall as a cloud, and on the other side was a cliff that became deeper and deeper as he went deeper. This was a path. A trail used by nearby hunters to hunt in the mountains.

When walking on such a trail, it can be said that you are in danger of falling off the cliff if you are not careful, especially when the road is blocked by snow.

"Brother, in this mountain, one wrong step can lead to the power of a cliff. How about cooperation between you and me?" The old man followed Yang Ming closely and said solemnly.

The old man responded only to Yang Ming's silence. He didn't know how the young Snow Girl got through the current murderous intention, and how she turned into the dancing girl famous in the land of Yan and Zhao in the future. He only knew that there must be murderous intention in it. Four volts.

Now he doesn't want to have anything to do with Xiaoyuki-onna, because she herself represents danger, and here, he is a real person, and he only has one life, and no one can give him a second chance.

Therefore, facing the old man's invitation, Yang Ming only responded with silence.

As dusk approached, Yang Ming finally entered the mountains and was temporarily safe.

"I know you. Your name is Yang Ming. Your father and I were good friends when he was alive." The old man who had been following Yang Ming put down the little snow girl from his arms and stared at Yang Ming who was digging a snow nest in the snow. .

"I have never heard my late father talk about your Excellency when he was alive." Yang Ming said.

Although he didn't know the real purpose of the old man's friendship with him, he could still imagine that there must be some purpose in it, and what could he have planned?

"It's normal. Your father has always been ashamed of his identity, so why would he tell you that he has a friend from Zhao." The old man said slowly.

Just this sentence was enough for Yang Ming to believe what the old man said, but Yang Ming did not respond at all.

"Brother, how about we discuss something?" The old man saw that Yang Ming didn't answer, but he didn't show the slightest trace of annoyance. Instead, he felt a trace of imperceptible satisfaction because of Yang Ming's caution.

But Yang Ming was still busy with his own affairs. In the blink of an eye, a snow nest that could be used to spend the night was slowly taking shape under his hands.

"Since she is determined to eliminate her traces, she will not give up halfway and leave behind troubles. Although we can escape the pursuit of the army by escaping into the mountains, this does not mean safety, and it will even become more dangerous." The old man said.

"Next we have to face a killer who may be a professional. In this vast Taihang, we may not be able to escape when facing a killer."

"It's you, not me." Yang Ming corrected.

He knew that what the old man said was right. Although Taihang Mountain could block Zhao Jun's pursuit, it could not escape the pursuit of top killers. However, Yang Ming also had luck. He did not think that the future Zhao Chang would be expensive to hire for him. A professional killer, she has the energy and is more willing to focus on Xiao Xue Nu.

"The situation you mentioned is possible, but do you really want to gamble with your life? Besides, if I keep following you, do you think you can stay out of it?" The old man showed a malicious smile as he spoke.

Yang Ming's face had become a little ugly, and he even showed murderous intent. The old man was threatening, and he really couldn't ignore his threat.

"So, let's discuss it. You take me to protect the young lady and send her to General Li Mu in Yanmen County. The old lady has a lot of properties in Yanmen County. After you send the young lady to Yanmen County, you can start from there. You will receive 50% of the property, about three thousand gold, and I will lure away the killers for you." The old man stated his conditions and bargaining chips.

"Are you sure you can lure all the killers away?" Yang Ming's expression changed and he asked proactively. As for three thousand gold, of course he was within the scope of consideration.

Money may not be important to Yang Ming, but having no money is very important to Yang Ming.

"Okay, I took the initiative to expose myself and give them my head. Why are they dissatisfied?" the old man said, with a calm tone, as if the head he mentioned in his words did not belong to him. .

"What about her? It seems a little unreasonable to not see her little head, right?" Yang Ming pointed at the sleeping little Snow Girl in the old man's arms.

"I will buy a girl of the same age as the lady from the hunters in the mountains, and then go to Fukouxing, where I will be caught." The old man said.

This is a cunning and cold-blooded person who ignores his own life and the lives of others. It is difficult to understand such a person based on Yang Ming's previous thinking, but in this era, such a person is extremely normal. The presence.

The unique culture of this era has created many people like the old man.

"Okay." Yang Ming thought for a moment and agreed to the old man's conditions.

Although the old man is very rogue and cruel to himself and others, the plan he mentioned is highly executable, so Yang Ming is willing to cooperate with him.

"Take the young lady and walk a little further before night falls completely, so that your whereabouts can be completely hidden after one night, and only my whereabouts will be left." The old man handed the sleeping Snow Girl to Yang Mingdao.

"I said..." Yang Ming said.

"That's it. This is the best choice right now. The snow nest you dug is very good." The old man interrupted Yang Ming.

"Go quickly." The old man blocked Yang Ming's words.

"I mean, when you set out tomorrow morning, you'd better pay attention to the footprints you leave. There is a difference between the footprints left by someone carrying someone on your back and the footprints left by someone alone." Yang Mingdao.

The old man's face couldn't help but froze. He didn't expect that Yang Ming was going to say this, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face.

And Yang Ming had already hugged Xue Nu and left in the afterglow of dusk.
