A Step Into The Past: I Am Han Xin - C137
Han Huaichu thought, “F * * k! First it was Chen Sheng, then it was Wei Jiu. Now there was Wu Chen, all of them came to invite me. This time, Wu Chen actually wants to hand over the strength that can topple nations to me, as well as the weight of a nation.
Han Huaichu knew of Wu Chen’s ending, so how could he agree?
Han Huaichu did not answer directly, but changed the topic and asked Kui Tong, “Second Senior Brother, you got the teachings from Master, did you see it for King of Zhao?”
Kui Tong was stunned when he heard this.
After he had defected to Wu Chen’s side, he had secretly seen Wu Chen’s face. Wu Chen was brimming with talent, with a circumference of the Earth Pavilion, he looked magnificent, and with a single glance, he looked like a king.
Kui Tong was very satisfied with Wu Chen’s appearance and was glad that he found a good master.
But why did Junior Brother Han Xin suddenly ask about Wu Chen’s appearance today? Could it be that he wanted to know Wu Chen’s fate so that he wouldn’t follow the wrong boss?
Kui Tong laughed and said, “Don’t worry junior brother, King of Zhao has hit the jackpot. “If it wasn’t for that, how would I have been able to take shelter in him?”
However, Han Huaichu sighed, “It seems that I have not learnt Master’s essence in the Second Senior Brother technique. Otherwise, we would not have wasted our time guessing on Chen Sheng that day. ”
One year ago, Chen Sheng, who came with Han Huaichu to seek as his master, was seen by Kui Tong as his teacher. Kui Tong saw that Chen Sheng was also a King, and thought that it looked different. He was not sure if he should ask for help. Guigu Xuance had only glanced at Chen Sheng and PASS him out, for which Chen Sheng had always been brooding over this.
Being inferior to his master in the art of phase change and occasionally making mistakes were his own personal matter. Now, this junior brother who didn’t know how to use the art of photography also tried to ridicule him for his incompetence in it. Kui Tong’s eyebrows immediately twitched as he asked, “What does junior mean by this?”
Han Huaichu said indifferently, “Second Senior Brother didn’t see that Wu Chen was hit by a bloodbath and died a violent death?”
Kui Tong was angered. “Junior brother, if you don’t want to stay at King of Zhao, then forget it. You have never seen King of Zhao with your own eyes, so you don’t even know about the art of meeting. How do you know that there is a blood catastrophe in King of Zhao? ”
“I came from the future, how could I not know?” Han Huaichu could not help but laugh, “Whether or not I am spouting nonsense, Senior Brother will find out in the future. That King of Zhao was also a wise man, but his life was in danger. I advise Senior Brother to not be greedy about a moment of wealth and fortune, and quickly leave the Zhao State, so as to not fall into trouble. ”
Without being able to get rid of the junior brother, the younger brother instead tried to persuade him. Qu Tong’s face reddened as he said, “You underestimate me, Qu Tong.” My decision to join the King of Zhao was not to be greedy for wealth, but to fulfill my lifelong dream. ”
Seeing his Senior Brother was angry, Han Huaichu hurriedly said: “Consider it as my mistake. I know senior brother is not a greedy person. ”
“Junior brother doesn’t want to submit to King of Zhao anymore,” he said. Han Huaichu nodded his head: “Everyone has their own aspirations, I am truly sorry for burdened senior brother to rush here so far.”
Since Junior Brother Han Han Xin had rejected Zhao, he could only think of another way, Qui Tong’s face was full of disappointment. He sighed and said, “Between us brothers, what is there to talk about? I know that you are doing this for my own good. Let’s go to Master’s tomb. ”
The two of them then walked towards Guigu Xuance’s grave. When they arrived at the grave, they saw a person kneeling in front of a gravestone in the distance, burning incense to pay their respects.
This person was around forty years old, with a scarf on his head, he was refined and unrestrained, revealing a sense of elegance, but who was that Third Senior Brother Li Zuoche? He was overjoyed to see that this person was actually Guigu Xuance’s third disciple, the grandson of Li Mu.
In the Ashram of Guigu, Guigu Xuance spent most of his time cultivating his Dao in seclusion, and did not have time to teach his disciples. Li Zuoche respected him greatly when he spoke to him as well as when he was his teacher and brother.
Seeing Li Zuoche return to the Ghost Valley, Han Huaichu was overjoyed. He shouted, “Third Senior Brother, why did you return to the Ghost Valley?”
With a flick of his sleeves, Kui Tong looked at Li Zuoche with a strange expression and turned to leave.
Han Huaichu held onto Kui Tong and asked, “Second Senior Brother, Master’s tomb is right in front of us, why are you leaving?”
Kui Tong pressed Han Huaichu’s hand on his sleeve and said in a low voice, “With the left car here, I think it would be better for me to leave.”
Han Huaichu immediately understood. Kui Tong left because King of Zhao Wu Chen did not welcome him and had already become his enemy. These two Senior Brothers each had their own master. Although they had studied together, meeting each other this time would make them feel extremely awkward.
Han Huaichu retracted his hand. “I already know about Master’s tomb, I’ll go pay my respects later.” With that, he left.
Only to know that Li Zuoche had already seen Kui Tong, and shouted loudly: “Second Senior Brother, please wait!”
Since his junior brother had already called out to him, Kui Tong had no choice but to stop and turn around.
Li Zuoche waved his feather fan, leisurely walked to the two and asked coldly: “Why is it that Second Senior Brother wants to leave the moment you see me, does senior brother dislike seeing the left carriage?”
Qu Tong saw that his tone was not friendly, so he made his point clear and laughed coldly, “Why do you need to ask when you already know the answer? You are Zhao Xie, I will support Wu Chen, and now that the two of us are separate, why should we meet each other? ”
Han Huaichu had never thought that these two senior brothers would have such a cold tone when they met, their friendship as fellow disciples had already completely disappeared.
Li Zuoche let out a long laugh, “What a good idea! Second Senior Brother, since you understand this logic, don’t blame me for dying under my sword today! ”
With that said, with a loud clanging sound, Li Zuoche unsheathed his cold sword and aimed it at Qu Tong’s throat.
He was originally a general of the Zhao State and had a family background, so when he used that sword move, it was like he had lost the divine dragon, and was worthy of being called a pure blue flame.
But Kui Tong was just a scholar, how could he avoid Li Zuoche’s sword? For a moment, his face was ashen.
Suddenly, Han Huaichu made a gesture with his right hand, causing the killing blow to miss its target. Han Huaichu moved forward and extended his hand out, grabbing onto Li Zuoche’s sword with lightning speed, he asked: “Third Senior Brother, why do you want to take his life the moment we meet?”
Li Zuoche was definitely going to kill with that strike just now, but somehow, he was deflected by this Junior Brother just like that, with a wave of his hand. Li Zuoche couldn’t understand it just now, so he just assumed that he made a mistake. When Han Huaichu caught hold of his sword in such a simple manner, it did not make sense to use the word “luck” anymore.
One must know that when one empties his hands into a white blade, if the opponent’s martial arts weren’t more than a level higher, he would absolutely not dare to take the opponent’s sharp blade with his bare hands.
“This Junior Brother Han’s martial arts are average, I don’t see him normally, why is it that his martial arts suddenly improved so much?”
“Han Xin, this has nothing to do with you, move to the side!” Li Zuoche, who was usually refined to the point of being a gentleman to his junior brothers, also shouted at Han Huaichu in anger.
Han Huaichu laughed: Why does it have nothing to do with me? Second Senior Brother accompanied me here. Since I bumped into him, how can I let him die? ”
Li Zuoche pulled with all his might, he could only think of retracting the sword. Unexpectedly, with the sword in Han Xin’s hand, it felt like it was rooted to the ground, and was not able to take it back.
To be able to enter the white blade empty-handed was perhaps just a brilliant move. If he couldn’t take back the sword, then it was because of the deep inner strength of his junior brother. Li Zuoche was shocked and angry at the same time, and asked in astonishment: “Han Xin, when did you become so strong?”
Han Huaichu advised with a smile: “I hope that Third Senior Brother can let go of Second Senior Brother for the sake of our former fellow sect members.”
Li Zuoche shouted angrily, “Han Xin, what do you know? This was an important military affair. How could he forget about his fellow sect members and serve his children? If we do not kill Kui Tong today, I, your senior brother, will never rest. ”
Han Huaichu asked in confusion: “Second Senior Brother is only just a scholar, why do you feel so jealous?”
Li Zuoche pointed his left hand at Kui Tong and said, “You’ll have to ask your Second Senior Brother.”
If his teacher was studying in the Ghost Valley together with his disciple, then why was Li Zuoche so jealous of Qu Tong? So there was a reason.
Before Qu Tong left, Wu Chen summoned Qu Tong, and plotted: “When the oligarchs received the secret report, many people in the country secretly sent out messages to Zhao Xie, plotting against him. Zhao Xie was a descendant of the Zhao State. The few of them wanted to send troops and destroy them, so what did the My Close think of that? ”
Kui Tong muttered to himself for a while before spouting out a poison plan, “Zhao Xie occupies the Hedong and is known to have a general to support him. Moreover, Zhao Xie is innocent and me, sending troops to suppress him is not right, it’s not right. It would be better to send out assassins to kill them in secret. With Zhao Xie’s death, his side would not be able to hold anything back, so the Hedong is easily obtainable. ”
Thus, Wu Chen sent assassins to the Hedong to assassinate Zhao Xie.
During one of the outings, the Assassin was lying in ambush in the grass, waiting for Zhao Xie to get close, he suddenly launched an arrow at Zhao Xie, causing him to get off his horse.
All the guards rushed forward to capture the assassin. After a round of torture, the assassin revealed that he was sent by Wu Chen, and the mastermind was Kui Tong.
The arrow had hit Zhao Xie’s left rib, but did not hit his vitals. With the protection of the armor, Zhao Xie was lucky enough to survive. Even so, Zhao Xie’s arrow was not light, and he was still lying on the bed.
Zhao Xie was stabbed, so he rushed over from the army camp to check on his injuries. When they found out that it was Kui Tong’s culprit, they couldn’t help but feel furious.
Li Zuoche was the grandson of the famous general Li Mu in the Zhao State.
With regards to the revival of Zhao State, a bunch of kings of a country would naturally not forget. After Chen Sheng made his move, they had wanted to make a move, but because they were unlucky, they were whipped by Wu Chen who was also with them, and their path was blocked by the other party. So Zhao Xie and Li Zuoche could only develop their Hedong, and soon, they fell into an awkward situation where they were facing off against Wu Guang’s army.
Finally, Wu Guang’s army retreated. Just as he heaved a sigh of relief, Zhang Han’s army took over Xingyang, causing Zhao Xie’s side to become extremely nervous.
Not long ago, news came that Three Jin Alliance Chief, Zhang Er, had welcomed Zhao Xie as their emperor. These people were wild with joy, and looked forward to it deeply. Who would have thought that it would be caused by that Qu Tong, Wu Chen established his own King of Zhao, causing the beautiful dreams of the late monarchs to vanish like bubbles.
It was fine if he couldn’t enter the Zhao State, since Zhao Di was fought over by the others. Unexpectedly, Wu Chen could not take him lying down, and Kui Tong, who was messing up the situation, actually had such a sinister plan, planning to kill Zhao Xie!
Since he is heartless, I am unrighteous. With Zhao Xie’s help, they began discussing how to deal with Wu Chen and plotting against him.
Everyone discussed, they all said that since this old thief Kui Tong was plotting for Wu Chen, it was impossible for him to rest in Hedong. If this attempt failed, he would definitely incite Wu Chen to do it again. If he wanted to restore Big Zhao to his former position and enter the main Handan, he could only get rid of the person who was a brain at Wu Chen’s side.
Coincidentally, he had received the news that the old thief had already left for the Wei State. Therefore, Li Zuoche entrusted the matter of the army camp to someone else. He left himself alone and travelled a thousand miles south to chase and kill Kui Tong.
Finally, in front of the grave of the master of Clear Stream Ghost Valley, Li Zuoche had met his own senior brother, and then, as planned, he pointed his sword at Qimu Tong and unleashed a fatal strike.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of his journey, Cheng Ding Jin appeared. This Junior Brother Han who was normally unremarkable had actually improved greatly in his martial arts, and wanted to forcibly protect that Qu Tong!
After Han Huaichu heard these words, his gaze turned to Kui Tong and asked, “Second Senior Brother, have you done anything to let the Third Senior Brother down?”
Qu Tong chuckled, and asked Li Zuoche: “Junior Brother, is Young Master Zhao well after resting?”
Li Zuoche sneered: “I’m afraid I will disappoint you. With the blessings of the heavens, my lord is not dead yet. ”
A hint of disappointment appeared on Kui Tong’s face.
Han Huaichu finally understood, towards Zhao Xie, Kui Tong had planned this assassination.
His heart was filled with sorrow. To think that the close and intimate senior and junior brothers of the past would fight each other for the sake of saying “each to their own master”, just like how enmity was formed between two generations, and they would be at each other’s throats the moment they met!
Thinking that he would have to meet this group of junior and junior brothers on the battlefield, he wondered if he would be like the two senior brothers in front of him. For the sake of the future boss, Liu Bang, he would not care about relationships with his fellow sect members.
“Forget it!” This was fate. Since he had already become the fake Han Xin, he would have to face all of this head on and he wouldn’t be able to dodge even if he wanted to. At that time, of course, no one would be willing to give up on the battlefield. After winning the battle and being able to let go of the lives of fellow brothers, it can be said that you are worthy of Master’s spirit in heaven. ” Han Huaichu sighed in his heart.
He was lost in his thoughts, and his grip on his sword loosened. Li Zuoche found the chance and with a fierce use of force, snatched the sword away.
With the Longsword in his hand, he immediately charged towards Kui Tong with his sword. Kui Tong was so scared that his face turned pale. He dodged and hid behind Han Huaichu, crying out involuntarily, “Junior brother, save me!”
Han Huaichu suddenly woke up from his stupor. Seeing Li Zuoche’s ferocious sword force was already approaching him, without thinking much, he struck his palm out with a “hu” sound. The seventh stage, Innate Genuine Qi, violently surged out like an avalanche.
How could Li Zuoche withstand it? With a bang, he was sent flying ten feet away.
He spat out a mouthful of blood with a “wow” sound. His face was like golden paper and he seemed to be heavily injured.
Li Zuoche’s eyes suddenly filled with hatred, and he shouted: “Innate Genuine Qi! So it turns out that you, Junior Brother, have acquired our sect’s most valuable treasure, the Fourteen Sects! My master was very biased. I followed him for twenty years, and I was the one who taught all of his junior martial arts. However, I didn’t get the Fourteen Sections to pass on to me. Junior brother, it’s only been a year since you’ve joined the sect, but you’ve already acquired this secret manual. Master has treated me so unfairly! ”
Once finished, Li Zuoche crawled up from the ground and threw a bag at Han Huaichu. He turned around and stumbled down the mountain without even looking back.
Han Huaichu looked at Li Zuoche’s staggering back, and thought about how Li Zuoche was so considerate when he learned the art of war from him, and how he had accidentally injured him. He could not help but feel a sense of guilt.
Qui Tong picked up the package on the ground and opened it. It was filled with heavy gold. It was almost two hundred gold.
