The bridge.
Wei Li Daoyuan's Water Classic Notes? Yishui: "A stream of water flows through the east of the city, south of the county, and also flows into Si. It is called Little Yishui." There is a bridge on the water, which is built between Xu and Si. Once upon a time, Zhang Zifang met Huang Shigong on the bridge, which is here.”
At this moment.
Many people had already gathered on the bridge. These people were all local ruffians and scoundrels, and the one leading them was the butcher of Huaiyin County, Li Goudan.
Today.
Having nothing to do, he gathered with his friends and began to brag after drinking some wine. In the end, the topic came to Han Xin.
Li Goudan mocked Han Xin, saying that Han Xin was as obedient as a dog in front of him and that he didn't dare to object to anything.
The group of scoundrels naturally did not believe it and began to jeer.
That's why.
In order to prove his ability, Li Goudan took the initiative to bring these people to find trouble with Han Xin.
However…
Han Xin, who had been living under the bridge, had already arrived on the bridge.
It was dilapidated in the past, but today, it was packed very neatly. It even carried a small bag on its back, looking like it was preparing to leave this place.
This made Li Goudan a little anxious.
If Han Xin left this place, he would not be able to keep his promise. At that time, not only would he have to treat them to a big meal, but he would also be ridiculed by these people for a period of time.
How could Li Goudan allow this to happen? He immediately stepped forward and blocked Han Xin's path.
However, Han Xin only raised his head to take a look, then continued to move forward silently, as if he was air.
Han Xin's expression and actions made Li Goudan even angrier. He thought Han Xin was looking down on him, so he shouted angrily,"
"Stop!"
"Didn't you see me just now? Big mouth!"
Li Goudan once again blocked Han Xin's way, blocking wherever Han Xin went.
"Please step aside."
Han Xin's eyes were extremely calm and deep, which actually startled Li Goudan.
"What a terrifying gaze!"
"No! Why should I be afraid of him? He's just a good-for-nothing. I must have drunk too much just now and seen wrongly.”
However, it only lasted for a few seconds before Li Goudan realized that Han Xin was the one who should be afraid, not himself.
The location of the bridge was not remote. Instead, it was the only bridge connecting the two places, so there were many people coming and going.
When they saw Li Goudan taking the initiative to provoke them, many pedestrians stopped and began to wait for a good show.
To them.
Li Goudan was a famous hoodlum, and Han Xin was also a famous good-for-nothing. The conflict between the two of them was like a dog-eat-dog fight, which could be used as a topic of conversation after dinner.
……
"I just want to leave this place. Please move aside!”
Han Xin looked at Li Goudan coldly, his voice devoid of any warmth.
It was like ice that would not melt for ten thousand years, cold to the bone.
"Leave?"
"You coward, you still want to leave. Do you know that there is no place for you in Huaiyin County, so you want to change places to beg?”
In order to maintain his image, Li Goudan began to humiliate Han Xin in public.
"You're not talking anymore. Did I hit the nail on the head?”
"You said that you are tall and strong, and all you do is hug a broken sword and a few lousy books all day long. You think that you are high and mighty, saying that you want to make contributions and become a marquis. But you can't even support yourself, and you have the nerve to spout nonsense here?”
"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Can a good-for-nothing like you become a general?”
"Hahaha…"
Seeing that Han Xin didn't dare to refute him, Li Goudan became even more rampant, and he kept spewing obscenities from his mouth.
"This Han Xin is really a coward. He didn't even dare to say a word when Li Goudan pointed at his nose and scolded him.”
"Tsk! He only knows how to brag, and he even needs to rely on that old woman to feed him. I think the sword in his hand is just a decoration.”
"This Li Goudan is too much, humiliating Han Xin in front of everyone.”
"The two of them are not good people. We just need to watch the show.”
The surrounding commoners also frowned and pointed at Li Goudan and Han Xin. Most of them had the mentality of watching a show.
To Li Goudan, the crowd's comments were a form of enjoyment. He enjoyed the feeling of being noticed, and it gave him an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
"Bah!"
"Han Xin, didn't you want to leave this place? Then crawl under my crotch. As long as you crawl under my crotch, I'll let you go.”
Li Goudan became even more aggressive. He spread his legs and did a horse stance. He patted his own leg and looked at Han Xin provocatively.
He was aggressive!
Han Xin's calm eyes finally showed a trace of emotion. He clenched the sword in his hand.
"What's wrong?"
"Are you finally angry? Your sword has been used for so long. It won't rust, right?”
"If you have the ability, then draw your sword and kill me. Otherwise, you can crawl over here.”
Li Goudan wasn't scared this time. Instead, he kept mocking Han Xin.
"Alright."
"I'll kneel!"
Just when everyone thought that Han Xin would retaliate angrily, he chose to accept the insult.
Whoosh…
For a moment.
The surrounding people all let out a cry of disappointment at Han Xin.
They were all looking forward to a coward fighting back. After all, people would sympathize with the weak, but in the end, Han Xin was as cowardly as ever. This was unacceptable to those who supported Han Xin.
Especially when he heard Li Goudan's loud laughter, which was so sharp and ear-piercing.
"Ah…"
Just as Han Xin was about to kneel down, Li Goudan, who was originally laughing, suddenly let out a miserable cry.
The clamoring Li Goudan suddenly hugged his legs and wailed on the ground.
The sudden change shocked everyone!
In the next second.
They saw three generals in imperial armor quickly walk out of the crowd and come straight to Han Xin.
It was Xu Bei and his group.
"You are Han Xin?"
"Why didn't you kill him? Instead, you were willing to suffer the humiliation of being under his hips?”
Han Xin stared at Xu Bei in front of him and was silent for a moment before saying,
"He is just a villain. Killing him will involve me in the lawsuit and taint my reputation.”
"If I just beat him up, he would stare at me and bear this humiliation. He would look down on me, laugh at me, and stop pestering me.”
Han Xin's voice was very calm, as if he was not the one who had to bear the humiliation, but someone else.
"How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan? It seemed that this person was Han Xin, whom the emperor's teacher was looking for.”
Xu Bei looked at the calm Han Xin and was slightly moved.
This kind of person's state of mind was too terrifying!
Although Han Xin was still worthless now, as long as he was given a chance, he would be able to soar thousands of miles and resound throughout the world.
"Men."
"Break this hoodlum's legs and send him to the government office for the Huaiyin County Magistrate to deal with.”
Li Goudan, who was still wailing, was so scared that he started kowtowing and begging for mercy after hearing Xu Bei's words.
However, Xu Bei was unmoved!
With a shrill scream, Li Goudan lost both his legs. What awaited him was an endless prison sentence.
Seeing Li Goudan's tragic end, everyone's expression changed in shock. They were even a little confused about the situation.
"I don't know you, so why are you helping me?”
Han Xin was also a little confused. He did not know Xu Bei and did not understand why they would help him like this.
"Han Xin!"
"We are under the orders of the emperor's teacher to invite you to Xianyang as a general!”
