The dim lights in the room and the laughter coming from a distance accentuated the quietness and desolation of the room. Ying Zheng's expression was cold and indifferent. In the past two years, this expression seemed to have appeared on his face.

It felt like he was dying. After taking a bath, he was about to stand up when he suddenly saw the dim golden light in the bucket reflecting the face of an old man with a beard. The two of them looked at each other in the water.

When they met, they were all startled. Ying Zheng didn’t even think about it, didn’t even raise his head, and jumped out of the bucket in a flash. Water splashed all over the ground. He patted the water surface, and the silver water shined onto the beams of the house.

Flying away, he jumped to the side, took the clothes on the shelf and wrapped his wet body. The figure on the beam was splashed by the water, and he yelled, "Ouch!"

He fell into the water with a splash, and the force in the bucket was so strong that the water in the bucket splashed everywhere. The room was suddenly wet. Ying Zheng looked at the person who was still flopping and struggling in the bucket, holding his clothes with one hand to block his own

He had already held a self-defense dagger in one hand, placed it on the man's neck, and asked coldly:

"Who are you."

"Ouch, young man, you have such a calm mind and sharp methods." The old man with a sloppy face lay in the water, and finally his head came out. He was already in a state of embarrassment, and he just let Ying Zheng win.

Putting the dagger on his neck, he looked like he didn't care about his own life, and he was laughing, which made Ying Zheng feel even more vigilant. He pressed the knife two more points to his neck, the sharp blade

He had already cut a gash in his neck, and a few drops of blood were seeping out. His eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he asked calmly:

"Let me ask you for the last time, who are you?" At this time, the relationship between Qin and Zhao was tense. He did not dare to relax his vigilance. At this moment, the old man suddenly ran into his room. Ying Zheng

His life-long experience has made him extremely suspicious. It is difficult not to suspect that this old man is coming for him. Knowing his identity as the Young Master of the Qin Kingdom, he wants to kill him to vent his anger. No matter whether this person has this purpose or not, as long as he

He really came for me, so he would rather kill the wrong person than let him go! When he thought of this, Ying Zheng's eyes became even colder, and the strength in his hands became stronger, and he had the intention to kill him all at once.

There was a strange look in the old man's eyes, the corners of his mouth curved, and his chin was dripping with water. His messy beard trembled slightly with his movements. I don't know how he suddenly stretched out his hand from the bucket.

, as fast as lightning, he clamped the dagger around his neck, and while smiling gently at Ying Zheng, he exerted a slight force on his hand, "Clang"! With a sound, the sharp dagger immediately broke into two pieces, Ying Zheng

He held the handle of the dagger in his hand, and the other blade was clamped between the old man's fingers. While holding it in his hand, he gestured twice, and then touched his neck, and saw a bright red on his wet palm.

At this time, he couldn't help but laugh twice and glared at Ying Zhengdao:

"Young Master, why are you so cruel and ruthless at such a young age?" He grinned, stood up from the bucket in a slow and orderly manner, touched the water stains all over his body, and saw that Ying Zheng had a cold expression on his face.

Although he looked wary, he suddenly felt amused. He smiled, sat on the edge of the bucket, and waved to him:

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. I'm just here to get some food. I don't mean to spy on you taking a shower. You can rest assured, I don't mean any harm to you!"

No matter how gentle his voice is and how harmless his expression is, Ying Zheng will not believe him. His life in the Zhao family in the past few years and his previous life in the Zhao State's hostage house have made him understand one thing.

Believe others when his appearance speaks. His life has been handed over to Zhao Zong and others a few years ago. And even if he is the future Qin Shihuang, no one will take him seriously at this time.

A life in my heart....

The origin of this old man was unknown, and he looked strange. What made Ying Zheng even more worried was that he broke the dagger he relied on for self-defense with just a raise of his hand. Just based on this ability, he was said to be ordinary.

There was no ill intention, and Ying Zheng couldn't believe it in his heart. However, various thoughts flashed through his mind, but there was a trace of relaxation on his face, as if he really believed the old man's words, which was unique to a seven or eight-year-old boy.

With an innocent smile, he nodded:

"Do you really mean that the old man is not here to harm me?" When he spoke, there was a hint of fear in his eyes. The old man glanced at him meaningfully, then nodded, watching as he took the dagger in his hand without any care.

Throwing the handle aside, he put on his robe again in a hurry, while still smiling a little sheepishly: "Who do you think wants to kill me! Since the old man just wants to eat and find something to eat, I happen to have some at my place.

If you don't mind some pastries, you can eat them." Ying Zheng finished speaking and made a gesture of invitation. At such a young age, he still had the initiative in his hands while talking and laughing.

The old man smiled slightly, glanced at Ying Zheng, suddenly jumped down from the bucket, and came close to Ying Zheng's face. He saw that this handsome young man with a pale face and thin body did not move at all, and his eyes were filled with gloom.

Han, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. On his face as white as jade, not even an eyebrow moved. The old man looked at him for a long time and suddenly smiled at him. The two were so close that even the other party

The fine hairs on his face were clearly visible. Seeing that Ying Zheng was not hiding, the old man's eyes became more and more interested. He suddenly stretched out a hand to grab him and said with a smile:

"Young Master, I advise you not to have any evil thoughts. It really surprises me that you have such complicated thoughts at such a young age!"

Ying Zheng suddenly thought. He was originally going to make this appearance to paralyze the old man's heart. This old man is so powerful that he can break a dagger with one hand, and it seems that he has not tried his best. This skill is definitely not that of ordinary people.

In comparison, even though Ying Zheng is much stronger now than before, it can only be said that compared with people of the same age, he is not too weak, and he is definitely no match for this old man.

, so you can't confront him head-on. When you heard that he wanted to eat, you were about to secretly drug him, but you didn't expect to be caught by the old man's eyes. All kinds of thoughts flashed through your heart, but there was a look of surprise on his face.

Under the old man's gaze, he resisted the desire to take a step back, met the old man's gaze calmly, and said with a smile:

"Why did the old man say this? I just wanted to give him some cakes because he was old. If the old man just wants to tease me, I can just leave." When he had the upper hand, he did not say anything harsh.

He had murderous intentions, he just smiled and started to act coldly, which was completely different from the gentleman's behavior such as issuing a gauntlet in the decisive battle. At this time, he was at a disadvantage, but he bowed his head quickly, although his attitude was still

It's light, but when he calls himself, he already uses the word "humble boy". This is a person who can brush and stretch!

The old man gave him a meaningful look. Unexpectedly, he accidentally hid in this family's house and saw an interesting little guy coming. He relied on his martial arts skills and was not afraid of the child's tricks. He laughed a lot.

Voice:

"Young Master is really smart." After he finished speaking, Ying Zheng looked at the gentle smile on his face. He didn't have the ruthlessness of suddenly attacking someone when he just spoke, nor the humility of suddenly showing weakness. On the contrary, he looked extremely...

His calm look and composure were enough to make him look at him with admiration, so he explained one more sentence: "A certain family just came here to avoid trouble unintentionally, and it was certainly not to harm the young man. Moreover, he had no grudges or grievances.

Sir, just don’t worry, give me something to eat, and I will never forget your gift of food today!”….

He spoke so calmly that Ying Zheng felt relieved. He knew that most people at this time were simple-minded, not to mention that with the old man's skills, he should not bother to lie. He turned his eyes slightly and saw his right arm.

There was a diagonal dark line on it. When he looked carefully, he found that it was blood, which had dried and hardened. The clothes were stained on his arms. No wonder he couldn't see the clues for a while. In this way, he said he was avoiding trouble, so he should

That's not bad.

Ying Zheng's thoughts were racing, but he nodded calmly and asked him to sit down. He went out and brought some snacks in. These were some whole grains that Hun Niang had prepared before for fear that he would be hungry when he went back to his room to sleep.

The snacks were not delicious, but as soon as they were served, the old man's eyes showed joy. Looking at his expression, he knew that he had dispelled his suspicion and would not do anything sinister again. In addition, he believed in his own

The promise should be enough to make this young man's heart beat. This young man looked very thoughtful and would never do anything that would hurt both of them. Therefore, he quickly reached out and grabbed a big piece, not caring about the wetness all over his body.

He stuffed a big piece into his mouth, obviously he was very hungry.

Ying Zheng moved his eyes to his injured arm. He was nervous just now and only wanted to kill the old man who might discover his identity. Now he calmed down and saw that the old man had injuries not only on his arm, but also on his thigh.

There were wounds on the clothes and on the back, especially the wound on the back. It was not shallow, and there were already many bones visible. Just when he was facing himself, Ying Zheng didn't notice it for a while. When he was observing him now,

Only then did he discover these scars. He didn't expect that after suffering such serious injuries, the old man still looked like he was fine. He was secretly shocked, thinking that the old man had just broken his dagger with his right hand, and his right hand had already

Even though he was seriously injured, he still has this kind of skill——

His body was shaken, and Ying Zheng couldn't help but look at the old man who was wolfing down his food with bright eyes. Thinking that he had just said that the gift of rice would be repaid in the future, a thought suddenly came to his mind. Although his health is not bad now

, but it’s not much better. I often heard people say that there were Mohist rangers at this time, who were famous all over the world. This old man seemed to be very skilled. He might be such a legendary person. If he could teach me a trick.

Half-style may be of great use to him in the future. At least when he returns to Qin in the future, he will have a much greater chance of survival when facing some dangers.
