At this time, Zhang Xuan and the other soldiers had relaxed their vigilance, and Zhang Xuan even had to put away his sword and apologize.

But Shen Bing stopped them:

"Be careful of deceit and don't underestimate the enemy!"

After Shen Bing said this, everyone grabbed their swords again.

Shen Bing was not in a hurry. He ordered Yan to guard the window, while Ren and several others guarded the corridor outside the door.

Zhang Xuan asked Shen Bing in confusion:

"This work of the engineer is..."

Shen Bing replied:

"This guy looks wrong. Who can be so calm during cross-examination?"

"Unless he acted like this intentionally, there must be something evil in it."

Jing Ke, who was collecting the map, couldn't help but be startled when he heard this. At this time, his heart was probably broken:

What else do you want from me?

It’s not okay to be calm, nor is it okay to panic?

However, what Shen Bing said seemed to make sense. Being too calm or too panicked were both extremes that were unreasonable.

Ordinary people would be a little nervous when suddenly a group of heavily armed soldiers burst in and interrogated them while they were playing chess, but Jing and Ke were calm and composed.

Of course, another explanation is that they are used to this scene.

But Shen Bing doesn't care about this. In fact, he doesn't have such great wisdom.

There are two types of sharpshooters, one is to shoot wherever you point, and the other is to hit wherever you point.

Shen Bing is the latter. He knows the answer and then gives the answer an excuse.

Before Jing Ke could rush to put away the map, Shen Bing ordered again:

"Open it!"

At the same time, Shen Bing took another step back, unsheathed the bronze sword at his waist and took a stance.

Although this posture is a bit awkward, it is better than being unarmed.

Jing Ke snorted and said angrily:

"I just opened the picture for you to check."

"Are you deliberately making things difficult?"

"If I report this matter to King Qin..."

Zhang Xuan winked at Shen Bing from the side, which meant that it was almost done.

But Shen Bing was not willing to give up.

At the same time, Shen Bing couldn't and didn't dare to give up, because he knew that if he let it go, he would never find another chance.

And the consequence of this may be that history will undergo earth-shaking changes and even take your own life.

So Shen Bing just hinted that he didn't see Zhang Xuan and still insisted:

"There's so much nonsense."

"Either open the map or throw the map over."

Seeing that Jing Ke still didn't move, Shen Bing raised his head towards the two soldiers beside him.

The soldier understood and immediately stepped forward with his sword in hand.

At this time, the situation suddenly changed. Jing Ke knew that he could no longer hide it and suddenly drew out his short blade and launched an attack.

The soldier who stepped forward after two screams was instantly stabbed to the ground.

Jing Ke moved very quickly, blocking the two incoming swords like lightning and then rushed towards Shen Bing.

You must know that this is a guest room. Although the guest room is more spacious than the upper room, the long-edged bronze sword is still difficult to wield. Instead, Jing Ke can wield the short blade freely.

For a moment, no one could stop Jing Ke's momentum. In just a moment, the short blade stabbed directly towards Shen Bing's face...

At this critical moment, Jing Ke suddenly fell to the ground with an "oops" sound.

When everyone took a look, they saw that there was a stumbling rope in the room. One end was in the corner of the wall and the other end was held in the hand of the man standing at the window.

It turned out that before Shen Bing entered the house, he told Yan to secretly set a trap in the house.

"Thieves who lean a little will definitely target me."

"You can set up a stumbling block in front of me to wait for the opportunity."

Although he was confused and didn't know what was going on, he still followed Shen Bing's words.

As soon as he entered the door, he pretended to search and tied one end of the rope to the foot of the desk, and then extended the rope along the way to the window without tightening it... This is also the reason why Shen Bing ordered the window to be guarded.

Others only thought that this was to prevent Jing Ke from jumping out of the window and escaping, but this was not the case in reality.

The stumbling rope was made of gray-black hemp rope, and it was dark at this time. The only lighting in the house was a few oil lamps in front of Jing Ke's case.

At the same time, Shen Bing made things difficult for Jing Ke again and again.

As a result, almost everyone's attention was focused on Jing Ke and Shen Bing, and no one noticed that Jian had set up a stumbling block.

This is also the reason why Shen Bing retreated again and again.

Shen Bing did this not entirely because he was timid, but because he had to retreat behind the tripping horse rope.

When Jing Ke rushed forward with the sword at lightning speed, he exerted force on his hand, and the stumbling rope suddenly drew high...

Jing Ke never thought that Shen Bing could do this. He screamed and lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.

He struggled to get up, but before he could get up in time, several soldiers had already swooped up and grabbed him.

At the same time, Nie Gai and the guards outside the house were also controlled by a group of Qin troops.

At this time, Zhang Xuan hadn't even realized what was going on, so he couldn't help but stare at all this.

When the soldiers tied up Jing Ke and lifted him up from the ground, he actually said:

"How brave, this guy is indeed a gangster."

"I almost let him fool me."

"The engineer is still sharp-eyed!"

Then he approached Shen Bing and asked puzzledly:

"Engineer, how did you spot the flaw?"

"If this guy hadn't lost his temper and started taking action, I'm afraid he wouldn't have revealed his true nature!"

Shen Bing smiled and replied:

"Master Twenty-Five Hundred, do you still think he is really a bandit?"

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but wonder:

"What are you if you're not a bandit?"

Shen Bing replied:

"As they said, they are envoys sent by the State of Yan."

Zhang Xuan didn't understand even more when he heard this.

"Since you are an envoy of Yan State, why..."

Shen Bing picked up the short blade that Jing Ke dropped on the ground with blood on it, waved it in front of Zhang Xuan, and asked:

"Two or five hundred masters, do you still remember where this guy drew the short blade from?"

When Shen Bing asked Zhang Xuan, he recalled it and replied:

"It seems...from that map..."

Shen Bing asked again:

"Who is the map going to be given to?"

Zhang Xuan replied:

"Of course it's for the king..."

Then Zhang Xuan was dumbfounded and his eyes widened for a long time, unable to speak.

After a while, he came back to his senses and asked:

"The engineer is saying...this...this guy wants to assassinate the king?"

Jing Ke retorted loudly:

"That's just a short blade I carry with me for self-defense."

"Don't wait and talk nonsense!"
