"You want to castrate me personally?"
"You?"
Lin Xuan smiled lightly and threw the Little Li Flying Dagger at the thin guard.
With a flash of the blade, the blade had already stabbed into the thin guard's throat.
The thin guard widened his eyes. Even until he died, he did not dare to believe that he could not even withstand a single move from Lin Xuan!
The Little Li Flying Dagger was not a hidden weapon because Lin Xuan had shot it out openly just now.
It was just that its speed was too fast, so fast that many experts could not dodge it.
The fat guard saw that the situation was not good and ran. However, just as he stepped out of the wine shop, he was blocked by Lin Xuan's remnant rainbow.
"Shopkeeper Lin, no, Young Hero Lin."
"Please forgive me and let me live.”
"I was forced by Lord Chang Ping."
"I promise to keep my mouth shut when I get back and swallow everything that happened today.”
The fat guard knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
He was a cowardly person who was willing to do anything to survive.
Unfortunately, Lin Xuan liked to burn bones and scatter ashes.
With a dragon's roar, the remnant rainbow pierced into the fat guard's chest like a bolt of lightning, piercing through him.
"Wait for me at home."
"Before I come back, don't open the door for anyone.”
"I'll be back soon. Don't worry.”
Lin Xuan first reminded Li Ji a few words before carrying the corpses of Lord Chang Ping and the fat and thin guard and leaving the wine shop.
Just like what Lord Chang Ping had said, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Although the Huayang Palace had been toppled, many officials who had benefited from the Empress Dowager were still alive.
Just in case, Lin Xuan carried Lord Chang Ping and the fat and thin guard to the western suburbs. Then, like how he dealt with Jing Ke's corpse last time, he found a place with no one and burned them.
After the corpses of Lord Chang Ping and the others completely turned to ashes, Lin Xuan clapped his hands in satisfaction and returned to the tavern.
……
An hour later.
The setting sun was like blood, dyeing the western sky red.
"Sir, I'm sorry. It's all my fault for causing you to kill someone again today.”
"I really don't know this Lord Chang Ping. Moreover, after I came to the tavern, I never left the tavern.”
"I don't know why he likes me.”
Li Ji, who was wearing a green long dress, walked in front of Lin Xuan and lowered her head to admit her mistake.
It was only today that she realized that it was wrong for a woman to be too beautiful.
Because if she was too good-looking, it was easy for her man to get killed!
"It has nothing to do with you."
"Because Lord Chang Ping deserved to die.”
"Even if he didn't covet you today, I would have killed him.”
"You don't have to blame yourself too much. This kind of thing might happen from time to time in the future.”
Lin Xuan placed his hands on Li Ji's shoulders and comforted her.
Li Ji happily stuck out her tongue at Lin Xuan when she heard this.
In her opinion, the reason why Lin Xuan killed Lord Chang Ping today was because Lord Chang Ping looked at her one more time.
At the thought of this, Li Ji's heart suddenly felt sweet, and her entire body felt as if she had fallen into a marshmallow.
"If you really feel guilty, you can take the initiative to study the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique tonight.”
"Also, don't ask me to teach you those movements every day. You can learn them by following the pictures in the book.”
Lin Xuan pulled Li Ji into his arms and carried her to the second floor.
Li Ji's slender eyes rolled as she shyly accepted the new mission given by Lin Xuan.
"Sir, what do you think of this move?”
On the second floor of the tavern, Li Ji leaned against the paper window and pulled down the clothes on her shoulders.
Sometimes, she really couldn't accept some of the actions in the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique because it was too embarrassing!
"Not bad, continue."
Lin Xuan looked at Li Ji's jade-like shoulders and was immediately interested.
He didn't expect Li Ji to be so talented in seduction.
Whether it was his breathtaking gaze or his straight jade-like back, they were impeccable!
……
Five days later.
Qin Country's capital, Xianyang Hall.
"Your Majesty, I brought back the saltpeter for you.”
"We dug up more than 30 cars this time. Do you think it's this kind?”
Meng Tian took a few steps forward and handed the saltpeter to Ying Zheng with both hands.
Ying Zheng picked one up at random, and after carefully examining it and confirming that it was indeed saltpeter, he ordered a guard to bring over a water vat.
He wanted to repeat the same trick and replicate Lin Xuan's use of saltpeter to make ice in the wine shop last time.
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
Seeing Ying Zheng continuously throwing saltpeter into the water vat, Meng Tian asked in confusion.
He could not understand Ying Zheng's operation.
And even now, he still didn't know what use this saltpeter had.
"You'll know later."
Ying Zheng deliberately kept them in suspense.
Seeing this, Meng Tian did not ask any more questions. She could only stand beside the water tank and quietly observe the saltpeter's changes.
After about half an incense stick of time, Ying Zheng suddenly lifted the lid of the water vat and took out the kettle from inside.
"General Meng, guess what's inside?”
"Water, because I saw the king use this kettle to scoop water from the water tank.”
"You're wrong, it's ice."
Ying Zheng shook his head and slowly opened the kettle.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the water in the kettle really turned into ice.
Meng Tian and the surrounding guards were shocked.
How was this possible?
Everyone could not believe their eyes and thought that this was an illusion.
It was only when they felt the pain that they admitted in disbelief that it was true.
"This is the reason why I asked you to mine saltpeter. Do you understand now?”
"The method just now is called the saltpeter ice making method. No matter where or when, as long as there is saltpeter and water, you can make ice.”
"A friend of mine told me about this method not long ago.”
Dressed in a black dragon robe, Ying Zheng sat high up on the gilded dragon chair, handing the flask of ice to Meng Tian.
Meng Tian came to her senses and hurriedly cupped her fists to express her gratitude.
"Another friend of the king?"
"Before the Cheng Jiao rebellion, father said that it was also a friend of the king who schemed and caused the Cheng Jiao rebellion to fail.”
"Just who is this friend of King's? He actually knows everything?”
Meng Tian thought to herself.
Although he had never seen Lin Xuan, he had already included him in the ranks of immortals.
"Your Majesty, I have another matter.”
"Oh?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then motioned for Meng Tian to continue.
After receiving the signal from Ying Zheng's eyes, Meng Tian started coughing non-stop.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng immediately raised his hand and dismissed his men.
"Has Your Majesty heard of the murder of Lord Chang Ping?”
"In my opinion, this matter is very likely related to Lü Xiangbang.”
"Because Lü Xiangbang has always been on bad terms with the Palace of Hua-Yang, and Lord Changping was once a member of the Palace of Hua-Yang.”
After the guards had left, Meng Tian took a few steps forward and said in a low voice.
He had never had a good impression of Lu Buwei, who was the one who wielded all the power, so when he heard that Lord Chang Ping had been killed, he had immediately suspected Lu Buwei.
Ying Zheng nodded thoughtfully.
He supported himself with the golden dragon chair and stood up. With his hands behind his back, he looked at the Prime Minister's Estate with disdain.
"Send someone to investigate this matter. If Zhongfu is really related to Lord Chang Ping's death, I will not let him off easily!”
Ying Zheng's voice was as cold as steel.
Just by standing there, he gave off a feeling of despair that pressed down on the hearts of every official. Even Meng Tian could not straighten her back.
