Su Dai and Zhang Yi bought an exquisite jade pendant and pretended to sell it at the entrance of the jade shop. As expected, it attracted Li Wen's attention.

He rolled his small eyes and looked at Su Dai and Zhang Yi arrogantly. He liked the jade pendant in his heart, but he pretended to be extremely indifferent and said: "This little thing is not in good condition. It is only worth a hundred at most."

Make some money."

Seeing his disdainful expression, Su Dai sneered from the bottom of his heart, but on the surface he was still very humble and said: "Sir, you can tell he is an expert at first glance. I spent 500 Wen when I bought it. I really lost a lot of money.

"

Zhang Yi also made a very regretful expression, and he and Su Dai sighed.

"I am the only one who is interested in buying such a worthless thing and playing with it. Why don't I give you another fifty cents and you two can just transfer it to me." Li Wen seemed to have become a kind-hearted person.

Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, Su Dai and Zhang Yi generously presented the jade pendant to Li Wen just when he was about to pay for it. Su Dai said: "It is fate that I can make friends with an expert in jade like you.

Why bother talking about money? Please put it away, sir. Let’s be friends from now on.”

Li Wen was of course very happy to have taken advantage. He praised Su Dai and Zhang Yi as generous businessmen and they were the ones who made a fortune.

Then, Su Dai and Zhang Yi followed the same example and gave Li Wen jade pendants, jade rings and other items again. Li Wen felt that there was profit from them and gradually regarded them as his unjust friends.

They were very familiar with each other, so Su Dai just pretended to casually ask Li Wen: "I wonder if there is anyone named Su Qin among the officials of the Qin State."

Li Wen shook his head at that time and said: "The appointment of important officials of the Qin State almost always goes through our Zhongshu Office to draft edicts. I have never heard of this person."

Su Dai and Zhang Yi's hearts sank and they were a little disappointed. Su Dai was still unwilling to give in and asked again: "Then has Li Zhongshu heard that the current King of Qin has summoned this person?"

Li Wen looked at Su Dai and Zhang Yi with a strange look in his eyes. Su Dai quickly explained that this man named Su Qin once lent me a hundred catties of gold and has not paid it back yet, so he asked this question.

When Li Wen heard that someone owed money to a friend and refused to repay it, he acted indignant on the spot and said that he would find this person and vent his anger on them.

In order to show that he was dedicated to his friend's entrustment, Li Wen immediately said that he would go back and carefully check the files of Qin officials, and then ask the old people in the officialdom.

Su Dai and Zhang Yi couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

However, two days later, when they found Li Wen and inquired about the information, Li Wen sighed, shook his head and said, "I have read almost all the officials' files, and also asked all the experienced officials in the palace.

I have never heard of Su Qin."

Faced with this blank situation, Su Dai and Zhang Yi were really disappointed. However, they did not neglect Li Wen. Instead, they continued to give him benefits and maintained close contact, hoping to get further information from him.

A few days later, the two went to Li Wen again and asked him to help check whether there was such a person among the criminals in the prison. It was best not to let go of the executed prisoners.

Su Dai and Zhang Yi presented Li Wen with a crystal clear jade cup at the right time. Li Wen benefited so much that he couldn't even close his mouth with laughter.

He also tried his best to find someone to check the prisoner records in the prison, but after checking everything, he could not find anyone named Su Qin.

Li Wen guessed that the person they were looking for must have gone to other vassal states. Otherwise, if he were in Qin State, he would not be so deeply hidden without any trace.

In fact, how did Li Wen know that Su Qin had met Lord Qin before, but Lord Qin was not interested in Su Qin and sent him away casually. At that time, Su Qin was brought there by Wei Han, so no one in the palace would notice Wei Han's

Follower?

Most of the Zhongshu Ling in the Qin Palace were men who had entered the palace cleanly. They acted as the monarch's personal civil servants in the palace and were the most well-informed. Even Li Wen could not find out about Su Qin's whereabouts through the Zhongshu Ling. Su Dai and Zhang Yi couldn't help but

I feel discouraged and anxious.

Can a living person disappear completely?

Zhang Yi had a strong sense of courage. On this day, he said with hatred: "Let's just go find Gao Sheng. After all, he was the one who brought us to Qin."

After Su Dai heard this, he also felt that it made sense, but he was still a little worried because they might get into trouble if they took the initiative to find Gao Sheng. Gao Sheng traveled thousands of miles and went deep into Yunmeng Mountain just to capture Gui Gu

The master and his disciples unfortunately failed to succeed. Now, Mr. Guigu's disciples are coming to his door. How can he let them go?

Su Dai explained his concerns to Zhang Yi, but Zhang Yi firmly believed that he might as well take the risk, because the current situation is: if they don't go to Gao Sheng, they will have to return empty-handed. How can they explain to Mr. Guigu?

Su Dai saw that Zhang Yi could ignore the risks, but he couldn't just sit back and watch. He was also determined to do nothing and start from Gao Sheng.

The two of them discussed it and decided that it would be better to be on the safe side. They would try to hide themselves as much as possible and secretly monitor and spy on them. If it still didn't work, they would make another plan.

As the leader of the Western Mohist Family, Gao Sheng recruited many disciples in the Qin State in order to expand their territory. The Western Mohist Family was very powerful in Xianyang, so his mansion was almost known to everyone passing by.

Su Dai and Zhang Yi each dressed up in disguise, looking like rich kids wandering around all day long. They also pasted beards on their faces to try not to let Gao Sheng recognize them.

The two of them dressed up and went outside Gao Sheng's mansion. While wandering around, they observed the people coming and going, hoping to find some clues.

For three days in a row, they only saw Gao Sheng and his Mohist disciples coming in and out, and some officials-looking people came to visit the house, but they didn't find any clues. They endured the frustration in their hearts and still held on.

On the morning of the fourth day, Su Dai and Zhang Yi walked side by side to the gate of Gao Sheng's house, watching the surrounding movements. Su Dai suddenly found a familiar figure coming out of the house. When he carefully identified this person, he was shocked.

, quickly reached out and grabbed Zhang Yi's sleeve.

Zhang Yi was startled by Su Dai's actions and asked in a low voice: "Why are you so nervous?"

Su Dai pointed at the person coming out of the gate of Gaosheng Mansion and said, "Look at that person, isn't he the man in black who attacked us in the dense forest and was injured by me?"

Zhang Yi looked in the direction of Su Dai's finger and saw a young man dressed as a man. He was not tall and slim, and he was about to go out to do errands.

Zhang Yi also felt something familiar, but was not sure, and said: "It looks familiar to me, but I'm not sure. Let's follow it and see what happens."

Su Dai nodded and said, "I'm sure it's the same person. What Xiongtai said is true. Let's just follow him and see who he comes into contact with."

The two of them pretended to be wandering around and followed the young man all the way.
