After passing Wang Ben's inspection, Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang left smoothly, identified the direction, and went directly to Xianyang.

He walked all the way to the nearby jungle, where the Qin army could not see him.

Jing Ke took off his boots, took out a wooden block from the left boot, and took out the poisoned dagger from the right boot.

The wooden block was about the same size as a dagger and was hidden inside, just to avoid Wang Ben's inspection.

After doing this, Jing Ke continued on his way and suddenly asked: "Wu Yang, I heard that you killed someone when you were twelve years old? You killed someone two years earlier than me, but I don't think you have ever killed anyone."

Qin Wuyang nodded a little cautiously and asked in a low voice: "Are we really going to assassinate King Qin?"

"Must kill!"

Jing Ke clenched the dagger in his hand and said: "But no matter whether this trip is successful or not, we will not be able to go back alive. That's what being an assassin is like. Are you not afraid anymore?"

"How could I be scared?"

Qin Wuyang laughed and encouraged himself.

Jing Ke said: "Just don't be afraid! When we get to the city ahead, I will buy you a short dagger and hide it on your body. If I fail, you will come over and help me make up for it immediately. Do you understand?"

"no problem!"

Qin Wuyang patted his heart and said proudly: "For the Yan Kingdom and the Crown Prince's appreciation of us, why are we afraid of dying?"

Jing Ke praised it and said, "Well said!"

They walked and chatted.

After a long time, we finally arrived in Xianyang.

According to Prince Dan's arrangement, he first went to see the concubine Meng Jia, and passed the message for him through Meng Jia, telling the King of Qin that people had arrived, bringing the map of Dukang and Fan Yuqi's head to surrender, and asked the Qin Dynasty to withdraw.

Soldiers and horses by the Yishui River.

Li Ji left for a few days and came back soon.

Bai Zhong asked him to stay in Xianyang and go to the place where crossbows were made.

"how do you feel?"

He pointed to the drawings of the crossbow and a large number of parts, and turned back to ask Li Ji.

"I want to give it a try first."

Li Ji is not sure whether it can be assembled.

Bai Zhong agreed: "Okay!"

Next, Li Ji took some parts and sat aside to assemble them according to the illustrations.

Bai Zhong asked all the craftsmen to come over to observe and learn.

Li Ji is worthy of being a member of the Moh family, and he is very skilled in machinery and mechanisms. After a while, he was asked to assemble the general shape of a crossbow.

He assembled it for a while, then picked up the prototype of the crossbow and looked at it. Then he fiddled with it and polished the parts. He accidentally broke the part and replaced it with a new one. He debugged it while assembling it.

This took nearly two hours.

Two hours later.

"Master, it should be fine!"

Li Ji picked up the assembled crossbow and added: "There are big problems with the assembled parts. They are not made well and the details are not enough, so the crossbow cannot be made."

Bai Zhong took it and looked at it for a while, then shrank and unfolded it, and then put the special arrow on it.

These can be used, but they are not well run-in, making it difficult to unfold or load arrows. This should be the problem that Li Ji mentioned that the components are not well made.

"Try it with an archery target."

Bai Zhong said.

Soon a soldier brought an archery target, and Bai Zhong set it up at about 150 paces and fired with a crossbow.

The arrow hit the bullseye.

The power of this crossbow is far less powerful than the original one. According to Bai Zhong's judgment, it is probably more than one stone and less than two stones, but if it can be fired, it is considered a success.

But it still couldn't meet Bai Zhong's requirements. What he wanted was at least six stones of strength.

"Can not be done!"

Bai Zhong shook his head, loaded the second arrow, and shot towards the target again.

Snapped!

This time, the arrow was shot, but the crossbow fell apart and became a pile of parts.

Li Ji explained: “The parts will fall apart if they are not made well.”

Bai Zhong was even more dissatisfied. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Li Ji, if you stay here, how long will it take to build the first usable crossbow?"

"One month!"

Li Ji thought for a while and said.

Bai Zhongdao: "Okay, I'll give you a month, and I'll come back to see the results after one month."

After finishing speaking, he handed this place completely over to Li Ji, and then returned to the military camp.

"General, the princess is looking for you."

Wang Li said.

Princess?

Bai Zhong remembered that it must be Ying Shu. When he got to the tent and took a look, he saw this female man standing with her back to him, still holding the halberd in her hand, and asked: "What's wrong with Captain Ying?"

"I heard that Duke Heng wants to betroth Dan'er to you?"

Ying Shu turned around and asked.

They really knew each other.

Bai Zhong said casually: "I refused, Dan'er should have told you, let's get down to business!"

"Captain Yin was looking for you, but couldn't find you. It's not convenient for him to come to the military camp, so he asked me to leave this to you."

Ying Shu took out a bamboo slip from her body.

Bai Zhong opened it, looked at it, and said, "Jing Ke is really here."

What is written above is exactly Jing Ke’s various movements.

Although historical events were brought forward by him, the trajectory has not changed, so he can predict many things.

"Did you already know that this man named Jing Ke would come?"

Ying Shu looked at Bai Zhong doubtfully.

The first time they heard the name Jing Ke, it was Bai Zhong who said it.

She felt that Bai Zhong had known that Jing Ke would come, so he sent someone to check on Jing Ke in advance.

But how did Bai Zhong know about this person without any reputation, or even know that he would come to Da Qin?

Ying Shu couldn't help but wonder whether Bai Zhong knew a lot of things in advance and hid it from everyone.

Bai Zhong said: "I am just guessing. Captain Ying can appropriately increase the number of guards around the king."

"What will this man named Jing Ke do to your Majesty?"

Ying Shu thought of this sensitively.

Bai Zhong deliberately did not explain clearly and said with a smile: "I don't know about this."

Ying Shu was unhappy that he deliberately didn't finish what he said. She watched him walk outside and quickly followed him out, only to see Wang Jian coming.

"The princess is here too!"

Wang Jian bowed his hands.

Ying Shu returned the greeting and said, "I have met the general."

"General, what are your orders when you come here?"

Bai Zhong asked.

Wang Jian said: "The envoy from the State of Yan came to Xianyang and sent it to Dukang and other places. He took Fan Yuqi's head with him and asked the king to withdraw the army stationed near Yishui. Then he decided to receive the envoy tomorrow morning and let us all go.

have a look."

"Okay, thank you General for letting me know!"

Bai Zhong agreed, thinking that Jing Ke had finally come to assassinate Qin.

The current King of Qin should no longer walk around the pillars.

After Wang Jian finished speaking, he left here quickly.

Ying Shu asked: "You must know something!"

Bai Zhong shrugged and said: "I don't know what you are talking about, and I am your commander. Is this how you talk to your superiors?"

"There are many secrets in you."

Ying Shu still didn't want to let Bai Zhong go, and continued: "Even if the king trusts you, I will definitely find out those secrets of yours."

According to a woman's sixth sense, she thought that Bai Zhong must not be simple.

Bai Zhong let her look for it, but she couldn't find the system in her whole life. She suddenly smiled and said: "Have you ever heard of a saying? Before a woman likes a man, she is usually very curious and interested in that man.

Interest, and then discover everything about that man.”

"you……"

Ying Shu was speechless.
