Chapter 69: Was he being manipulated by Zhao Che? Are ugly people prone to mischief? After Yi Xiaochuan heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
This is the first time I heard someone talk about him like this.
now.
He belatedly realized that there were two long scars on his face.
He was already disfigured.
After a while, Yi Xiaochuan calmed down again and continued to say to the officers and soldiers: "Master, please make it easier for me. After I go home and get my things, I will definitely benefit from you."
"Stop talking nonsense. Stop talking nonsense. I'll sew your mouth shut so you can keep talking."
After hearing Yi Xiaochuan's words, the leading officers and soldiers' faces darkened.
Before coming, Xiao He told him that Yi Xiaochuan was not low in martial arts and had many evil ideas. Therefore, he must take Yi Xiaochuan directly to the place where the corvees gathered and not give him any chance to play tricks.
"you"
After hearing these words from the officers and soldiers, Yi Xiaochuan was speechless.
He didn't say anything more and calmed down.
After getting ready to the gathering place, act on your own initiative.
Escape is impossible.
If he completely escapes, or lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests, what will happen to his sworn brother Liu Ji?Furthermore, his responsibility to protect history will not be fulfilled.
Now, Fan Kuai is suffering from prison, and he is the only one under his eldest brother.
About a quarter of an hour later, Yi Xiaochuan was escorted to the gate of the county government office.
The people standing at the gate of the county government office were all people who needed to perform corvee this time, and most of them were young adults in their 30s and [-]s.
Yi Xiaochuan also roughly counted, there were almost five or sixty people.
The expressions of these people were very solemn and looked sad.
The corvees were surrounded by officers and soldiers of Great Qin, and they had no chance of escaping.
Of course, in the face of the harsh Qin law, most people had no intention of escaping.
Yi Xiaochuan also walked into the crowd of laborers, However, as soon as he walked into the crowd, several fellow corvees were frightened and took a few steps back after seeing his scarred face.
In the eyes of many people, Yi Xiaochuan's current face is extremely terrifying, and there is blood on his forehead.
"Look, look at his face, it's really scary."
"Yeah, how could I be with such an ugly guy?"
"It seems that he has never done good things before, so he must be dealt with."
"Yes, we should stay away from him in the future."
"."
After several corvees gathered together, they looked at Yi Xiaochuan and discussed in low voices.
When Yi Xiaochuan heard these very harsh words discussed by these people, In his heart, he felt very uncomfortable.
once Upon a time,
He is also a handsome young man with strong martial arts skills.
Now, he has become a clown in everyone's eyes.
It's really sad.
Yi Xiaochuan did not choose to continue arguing with the corvees. If he goes to Xianyang to do corvee service, he will have to spend a lot of time with these fellow travelers in the future.
Therefore, he did not want to offend others before setting off.
At this time, a very familiar voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Yi Xiaochuan, why are you here?"
It was Liu Ji who spoke. Liu Ji’s vision is fine now.
He was a little surprised when he saw Yi Xiaochuan in the crowd, so he limped forward and asked curiously.
"Brother, I was expropriated by the imperial court as a corvee." Seeing Liu Ji somewhat surprised, Yi Xiaochuan answered truthfully. He continued to ask, "By the way, eldest brother, why are you here?"
"Alas." Hearing this, Liu Ji let out a long sigh and continued to answer, "I am also one of the corvees."
However, after seeing Yi Xiaochuan here, Liu Ji's originally complicated heart felt somewhat balanced at this moment, and he finally felt better.
Along the way, it was also a good thing for him to have the coward and licker Yi Xiaochuan.
Yi Xiaochuan does many things for him, so he can relax.
"Brother, you too"
"It seems that the road ahead for both of us is very difficult."
After hearing Liu Ji's words, Yi Xiaochuan's face was full of distress and worry.
You know, the eldest brother's physical condition is worse than him, how can he do physical work?but.
After seeing that Liu Ji was also working as a corvee, Yi Xiaochuan understood everything.
It seems that this matter was arranged and planned by Zhao Che.
He and Liu Ji were both played by Zhao Che and applauded.
"hiss", After thinking of this, Yi Xiaochuan couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Some shudder.
I just hope that in the future, he can get rid of Zhao Che and stay far away from Zhao Che.
"It would be better if I had money." Liu Ji said solemnly.
If you can have money, at least you don’t have to worry about food and drink along the way.
Moreover, you can also use money to bribe officers, soldiers and people in charge to make your life easier.
When he went out early this morning,
In fact, he also brought money with him, but his family was poor and his savings were meager.
Therefore, he only has dozens of Qin Banliang on him.
"Oh, brother,"
"I was locked in a dark room in Zhao Che's house this morning. I was just released. After I was released, I was escorted here directly by the officers and soldiers,"
"I originally planned to go home and take the money with me. Unexpectedly, the officers and soldiers didn't agree at all."
Yi Xiaochuan let out a long sigh and told what happened to him.
In his opinion, this is not a very important matter.
Regarding money, we can still find a solution on the way.
No matter before or after the time travel, Yi Xiaochuan was never short of money, and he always lived a life of generosity.
Therefore, he always thought that money could be obtained easily.
"You say you"
"It's over, there's nothing else to do."
After hearing this, Liu Ji's heart suddenly dropped.
At the same time, he secretly cursed Yi Xiaochuan as "trash" in his heart.
He knew very well that if they went here without money, what miserable life would be waiting for them.
Soon after.
All the corvées have arrived.
The officers and soldiers took out two more long and thick ropes. In order to prevent the corvees from escaping on the road,
Therefore, the officers and soldiers tied the hands of all the corvee workers together with ropes. The corvees all had heavy foot cuffs on their feet.
Then, a long line formed.
The magistrate of Peixian County was standing in front of the gate. Also standing next to him was Xiao He, a junior official.
After the county magistrate saw that all the corvees had gathered, he gave an order for the corvees to set off towards Xianyang.
As for the people escorting the corvees, there were fifty officers and soldiers of Da Qin, and a leading general named Wang Tian.
This man was one of the most powerful military generals in Peixian County. It was said that he was related to Wang Bi, the Marquis of Tongwu.
then,
Liu Ji could only drag his heavy leg irons and limp forward in the direction ahead.
but,
Because Liu Ji was old, he was ranked at the bottom.
The corvees need to arrive within the specified time,
Therefore, the officers and soldiers shouted at them, "You all, hurry up."
"Walk faster, do you hear me?"
An officer and soldier, after seeing Liu Ji limping slowly at the end of the team, almost lost his patience and shouted loudly at Liu Ji.
"Good, good, good."
Liu Ji did not dare to neglect and immediately agreed.
However, his legs and feet were still very weak and he walked very slowly.
At this time, the officers and soldiers beside him lost their patience, came directly behind Liu Ji, and whipped Liu Ji directly.
