Chapter 34 Zhang Liang Assassinates the Emperor Qin

"Ah! Something is grabbing me! Help, help, let me go!"

At this time, Gai Nie stepped forward, grabbed one of the men by the back of his collar, and threw him out.

This caused the young man to howl in horror.

However, as soon as he was thrown out of the range of the stone steps, he suddenly felt dizzy, the scene in front of him changed, and he found himself back at the foot of Yinxian Peak.

Another young man, affected by his companion's terrified shouts, began to flee frantically, looking back from time to time.

But the more he did this, the more ridiculous he looked in the eyes of everyone. He kept circling on the wider stone steps, running very fast, looking behind him with a look of horror on his face.

At this time, Gai Nie also grabbed him, and when he was terrified and his whole body was limp with fear, Gai Nie threw him out.

"Ouch!"

The two hooligans who were thrown out collided with each other and screamed in pain. There was still a look of fear on their faces as they looked around in shock.

"If it happens again, I will not forgive you easily."

Gai Nie stood on the stone steps, his face stern, his eyes sternly staring at the two hooligans who were thrown on the ground.

"Yes, I don't dare anymore!"

The two rascals were already so frightened that they no longer had the audacity they had just now. They crawled away in a hurry, supported by their other two companions.

Seeing the behavior of these two people, Han Xin couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

With the wide stone steps as the center, psychedelic jade stones are placed within a few feet. Ordinary people will be scared if they step in.

However, Gai Nie, Han Xin and others had a jade token of Yinxian Peak on their waists, so they were not affected.

"Hiss, what kind of magic is this?"

"How can we allow them to act so recklessly in a place where immortals live? They deserve this."

The noble families, gentry and common people around could not help but cry out in dismay upon seeing this.

No wonder those two rascals behaved so strangely just now, it turns out they were under a spell.

The teenagers and young men who had been ready to make a move just now were all frightened and secretly thanked their lucky stars that they did not rush forward foolishly.

Just when everyone was discussing and felt that there was no hope of going up the mountain, suddenly another group of people arrived and went directly towards Gai Nie and others.

Suddenly, everyone looked over here with the intention of watching a good show.

There were seven or eight people in this group, four of them were dressed as servants, two were dressed as maids, and the leaders looked like two rich ladies.

One of the two women was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slim figure, fair skin and beautiful looks.

The other one is a little younger, with a pretty and cute appearance, fresh and refined.

The two girls look somewhat similar, and it can be seen that they are sisters.

"If men are not allowed to go up, is it okay for women?"

“Hiss, are they trying to use a honey trap? Under the watchful eyes of everyone, those two wouldn’t have the guts to do it even if they wanted to!”

"Nothing works. Hehe, don't let someone cast a spell on you again. It will be very embarrassing for a girl like you then."

"That's not right. They look like servants from the Lu Mansion. Could it be that the eldest and second young ladies of the Lu Mansion are here?"

At this time, many people around had already prepared to go back home, but when they saw this group of people wanting to go up the mountain, they all looked over and started talking in low voices.

However, Lu Zhi and Lu Shu lived in seclusion in the compound and not many people knew them. Instead, some people recognized the servants of the Lu family and began to understand.

"What are you two?"

Gai Nie stepped forward and asked.

"We are from the Lu Mansion in Pei County!"

At this time, Xiaoli, Lu Zhi's personal maid, stepped forward and said.

"But Miss Lu Zhi and Miss Lu Shu!"

After hearing what the two said, Han Xin on the side felt a little startled and asked respectfully.

This is one of the people that the master specifically instructed.

"Exactly!"

Lu Zhi nodded in response.

"Please, both of you!"

Gai Nie naturally knew about this, and immediately bowed to the two of them. Lu Zhi immediately asked a few servants to wait at the foot of the mountain, and then she and her sister led their respective maids and walked up the mountain.

Everyone can only envy, hate and be jealous!
at the same time.

In an inn in Pei County, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu were sitting opposite each other.

"Your guess should be true. The big shot who came here from Pei County some time ago should be Ying Zheng."

Sitting opposite Xiang Liang was a young man.

This man was wearing Confucian clothes, had a handsome face, elegant manners, an upright posture, and bright and energetic eyes. He always gave people a feeling of confidence and mastery of the wisdom.

"No doubt about it. Even ordinary royal relatives and high-ranking officials of the imperial court don't have such a formation as his. Every time he goes in and out, he is guarded by hundreds of cavalrymen. He has also killed many alchemists here, so his identity can be determined.

There is just one thing, the security is so tight that we can't even get close, let alone do anything."

Xiang Liang looked out the window and vaguely saw some soldiers walking in the distance, surrounding the manor.

"I wonder if Zifang has any good ideas?"

Xiang Liang retracted his gaze and then asked the young man in front of him for advice.

In Xiang Liang's eyes, the young man in front of him was also no ordinary person.

"If Ying Zheng goes out, it will be much easier. If we find the right place, we may be able to start."

Zhang Liang looked at the manor in the distance and whispered.

He had made many preparations over the past few years and had actually already formulated an assassination plan, even preparing the candidates for the assassin.

"Perhaps Ying Zheng will go out in the next two days."

Knowing that Zhang Liang would not speak without a clue, Xiang Liang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly expressed his guess.

"Hiss, did you plant a spy?"

Hearing Xiang Liang's words, Zhang Liang couldn't help but take a breath. Did he underestimate the remaining power of the Chu nobles?

How could he have planted spies around Ying Zheng and known his travel plans in advance?

"Ziliang misunderstood. It's all because Taoist Ye Yu from Hidden Immortal Peak has returned. Ying Zheng will definitely go to visit him."

Xiang Liang detailed the information he had collected over the past few days.

"Does this alchemist really have so many magical powers?"

During the past few days in Pei County, Zhang Liang often heard of Ye Yu's name and deeds, but he was half-believing and half-doubting.

Now, after listening to Xiang Liang's detailed narration, he suddenly became very interested.

Especially Xiang Yu, who had been struck down by Ye Xianren's lightning. This ability made Zhang Liang even more excited and yearning for it.

Xiang Liang was right!
Sure enough, the next morning, a large number of cavalry began to mobilize, and then set out from Pei County and headed towards Yinxian Peak.

"There are nine carriages. Which one should I attack?"

Seeing the armored cavalry at the beginning gradually approaching, Xiang Yu, who had just heard a confidant of the Xiang family come to report the situation, said.

"Strike the most luxurious frame in the middle."

Zhang Liang's voice rang in the ears of several people.

At this time, in addition to Zhang Liang, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu, there was also a man with a burly figure like an iron tower, a rough face, and wearing iron armor, standing quietly in the house.

With this man around, even Xiang Yu, who usually looked very tall and strong, seemed much shorter.

This was exactly the assassin Zhang Liang used to kill Ying Zheng, a strong man he had been looking for for many years.

At this time, next to this strong man, there was a specially made iron hammer weighing one hundred and twenty pounds.

If one wants to assassinate Ying Zheng, in addition to the soldiers around him, he must first break into the carriage made of protective materials such as iron, wood, and iron sheets.

These carriages can protect against swords, knives, and flying arrows, but they are obviously useless against a 120-jin iron hammer.

This is also the reason why Zhang Liang believes that the success rate is very high.

"Zhuang Bai!"

Zhang Liang turned around and looked at the burly man who was as tall as an iron tower.

"I am willing to die for you!"

The burly man looked serious and bowed to Zhang Liang.
