Looking at Zi Jian, Zi Chao was finally willing to let him go and not mention what happened at the beginning. The uncle felt relieved.

While eating, he kept smiling and waited for a long time. After the two of them had finished eating, the uncle excused himself on his way and took advantage of the opportunity to say goodbye to the two of them.

When Zijian and Zichao got the money, they naturally didn't care about their uncle. After all, there was no benefit to them if his uncle was arrested, and they couldn't get the thirty-five dollars, so they asked him to leave in advance.

"Long time no see, that Zihuai has some money!"

"No, back in Sanchuan County, this person only knew how to eat and drink all day long. If he hadn't thought of Mr. Li You at that time, who would have paid attention to him. However, Mr. Li You treated this person so well, and this person actually stole

Master Li You's property is really ridiculous."

In the room, Zichao looked at the unfinished vegetable dish, not wanting to waste it. He laughed at Zihuai while eating, looking at the eyes of the people around him, and from time to time he looked at the thirty-five dollars on the table.

Everyone was a little proud and couldn't help but feel excited.

This is a rare and huge amount of money!

"That man just now was so strange. He turned around after taking three steps and left on horseback with a panicked expression. He was afraid that he would be late. But his horse was really handsome. By the way, was he allowed to eat at the table where he was sitting just now?

Soup, what I fed his horse was the young grass I picked up from the Danshui River in the morning. Don't leave without eating."

"After paying, order two vegetable dishes and three bowls of milk. Now, it's the table with the money!"

In the room, when Zichao was about to divide the money, suddenly the voices of the waiter and other children were heard behind him. As they listened, the two of them seemed to suddenly realize something and quickly turned their heads.

Looking at each other, Zi Jian quickly stood up and walked over to ask the waiter what the person who just rode away looked like and what his characteristics were.

When the waiter saw this, he didn't think much about it and just told his uncle's appearance.

In an instant.

Whether it was Zi Jian or Zi Chao, they were all stunned on the spot, completely in disbelief. A horse could cost as little as tens of thousands of dollars, which is just one gold, and beautiful war horses were even more expensive, with a price but no market.

Recalling the uncle's action of counting money with his head down, and then looking at the thirty-five pieces of money on the wooden table, the two of them who just thought it was a lot now felt a sense of play, and even the money was a bit dazzling at the moment.

, seemed to be humiliating them both.

An anger emerged between the two of them.

The upper reaches of Danjiang River.

On the official road that had not yet arrived at Xiong'er Mountain, the uncle was riding a horse. Seeing that he was getting further and further away from Wuguan, he finally felt relieved. Although he felt sorry for the thirty-five coins, as long as Zi Jian was there, Zi Chao pretended that he had not seen him riding a horse.

, I don’t know if he has hundreds of money, nothing will happen.

Right now it is better to go to Lam Tin as early as possible.

"Drive~! Drive~drive~!!!"

However, before the uncle could go further, suddenly the sound of horse hooves could be heard behind him. The uncle turned his head nervously and quickly dismounted his horse and retreated to the side of the road.

Although he is very scared, it is impossible for the uncle to hide. In the Qin State, if he is wanted, he will not even be able to enter the city, let alone a place to eat and live. At the moment, he can only pray that those on horseback are just passing by.

It has nothing to do with him.

Thinking that he had already given thirty-five dollars to those two people, the uncle kept comforting himself in his heart.

soon.

As the uncle and the people along the way gave way, a group of about ten Qin soldiers on horseback quickly arrived in front of them, and then slowly stopped under the uncle's horrified eyes.

Seeing this scene, the uncle's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition suddenly came to mind.

Before the uncle could recover, the Qin soldiers had already surrounded him and drew their swords.

"It's over!"

The uncle's heart trembled.

Thinking of the fate of being caught, the uncle felt dizzy, his legs and feet felt weak, and his crotch suddenly became wet. The uncle knew that it must be Zijian and Zichao who told the guards at Wuguan about what he had done before.

The guard immediately caught up with him.

"I am an old friend of Tingwei Li Si! I am an old friend of Tingwei Li Si. I hope you can go and inform me!"

The uncle saw that the two young Qin soldiers had dismounted from their horses and were walking towards him with Qin swords. Thinking of being caught, he immediately collapsed and sat on the ground, shouting with prayers in his mouth.

Now this is the uncle's only chance, and it was also the reason for him to come to Qin before. The uncle believes that as long as he sees Li Si with his own eyes, or as long as Li Si knows about him, he will definitely remember his old friendship and let people let him go.

"Catch him!"

However, the uncle's idea was good, but the soldiers and generals at the head did not pay attention to it.

"I am really an old friend of Lieutenant Ting. I have a secret message. I want to see you generals and Lieutenant Ting!"

Seeing this, the desperate uncle could only quickly take out the most important things from his arms, which was the purpose of this trip to Wudu, a piece of rag and two coins. In the eyes of the uncle, Ruona Min's house had been betrayed.

Qin State, then he can make meritorious service this time. If Min Mansion is from Qin State, then he can be said to be one of Qin State's own people who came to deliver a message.

When the Qin soldiers who came to capture the uncle heard this, they were stunned and turned to look at the general.

The general couldn't help but frown at this moment. After all, this man seemed to really know Wei Ting, and he seemed to have something important to do.

Think of this.

The general did not dare to be careless and gave the soldiers a look to indicate what it was.

The soldier who caught the uncle nodded, reached out to take the cloth from the uncle's hand, and opened it. However, the next moment, when he saw the blank cloth and two coins, the soldier froze on the spot, a little confused.

"Captain, there's not a word!"

The soldier said to his general, and took the cloth in his hand to show it to the general.

In an instant, the leader's eyes turned evil when he looked at his uncle, and his eyes became obviously angry and angry.

"Give me a beating!"

In an instant, following the general's words, the uncle's screams rang out, and the soldiers of the Qin State dismounted one after another. They punched and kicked the uncle who was curled up on the ground with all his strength, until he couldn't bear the beating and fainted alive.

.

Looking at the unconscious uncle, a soldier took out a money bag from the uncle's arms and quickly handed it to the general.

The general took the money bag and opened it. He saw that there was no less than four hundred dollars in it. He was a little surprised. After thinking about it, he asked the soldiers to pick up the cloth.

Ten days later.

In the dungeon of Wancheng.

The uncle's cheeks were bruised and swollen, and he was curled up in a dirty cell. Weeds were everywhere in the cell, and there was a stench everywhere.

Suddenly hearing the sound of footsteps, the uncle quickly looked up and started to tremble.

"Sir! Can you confirm the news?"

The uncle crawled forward on his knees. When he reached the wooden plate of the cell, he quickly looked at the officials outside the wooden fence and asked.

An official came to the uncle with four Qin officials.

"Confirmed! Open the cell!"

The official said to the uncle, and then asked a Qin official to open the cell.

The uncle was overjoyed when he heard this, and was filled with excitement at the thought of being able to get out alive. However, for some reason, the next moment, when he saw the officials' mocking expressions and contemptuous eyes, he had a bad premonition.

"In the past few days, we have confirmed that you have committed the crime of theft. In addition, there are reports from Xianyang. Lord Tingwei has never known you!"

The official looked at the uncle with a stiff smile and said.

In the Qin State, anyone who steals less than a penny will be punished by doing hard labor for thirty days, and those who are more attractive will be reduced to slaves. But like the person in front of you, he is not even qualified to be a slave. According to the laws of the Qin State, not only

They had to have words carved on their faces, and from then on they had to do heavy hard labor and labor for the Qin State.

For example, once the Qin State attacks the Wei State, it will need tens of thousands of laborers like this to be responsible for pulling baggage, transporting grain and grass, and other hard work.

"Impossible! Impossible! Sir, Wei Ting and I are old friends! Old friends!!!"

The official's words made the uncle feel extremely cold all over. The uncle shook his head in disbelief. He couldn't believe that Li Si from Tingwei Mansion actually said that they were not old friends.

Thinking of this, he saw from the corner of his eye that the Qin official had come up to arrest him. The uncle came back to his senses and shook his head in fear.

"Sir, I am really an old friend of Tingwei! Your Excellency! Yes, yes, yes, that Wucheng, sir, I am going to Wucheng this time to deliver news, sir!"

The uncle quickly spoke again.

The officials didn't understand the uncle's struggle at all, and directly asked the junior officials to arrest him and take him away.

"Just take a piece of cloth and two coins, who do you think I am? You are wanted by the Qin State, who would let you come to deliver news?"

The official asked back, with some anger in his eyes, feeling that the man in front of him was humiliating his intelligence.

"It was me who stole my nephew, no, no, no, it was my nephew who dragged me, sir! Please believe me."

The uncle hurriedly argued, but he was too frightened and accidentally said the wrong thing. When he woke up and changed his words, he saw the officials' mocking eyes.

"take away!"

The official didn't bother to look at his uncle anymore, turned around and walked out of the cell.

"grown ups."

The uncle looked at the officials leaving, full of despair and fear. Four Qin officials came forward to push him to the ground and tied him up with ropes. When the uncle struggled, he was punched and kicked again.

The people of Qin hated thieves very much.
