Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1471 The End: Red Dragon

Chapter 1471 The End: Red Dragon

"I..." Master Ban was stunned by Thieves Zhi's words and was speechless.

This is really a penny that stumps the heroic man.

It's pitiful that he, the king of thieves, would be cheated due to lack of funds...

In fact, in the final analysis, it is a problem of Mohism’s own style.

Although it possesses machine technology that is comparable to that of the Public Loser, especially in some aspects that have nothing to do with war, it can be said to be a monopoly, but it rarely uses this technology to make profits.

Over the years, the largest amount of money the Mohist family has made has been made from Liusha - helping Liusha open the trade route to Baiyue. At the same time, the merchant fleet at sea also received the cooperation of the Mohist family in the early days.

It sounds like they are selfless and not using their technology for personal gain, but in fact this is a move that has pros and cons - but for the general public.

The art of mechanism is a profound knowledge, and the mechanism creation itself is a high-threshold object.

It is different from various inventions of later generations, which can be used quickly even if the user does not understand the operating principles at all. Even the workers who make it do not need to know any relevant knowledge, as long as they can complete the required processes step by step. That’s it.

And everything related to mechanics can never be separated from the pilot.

If the Mohist family chooses to become a supplier like Gongshujia, then their internal pilots will become a 'profession' instead of a simple ability, and serve the 'customers' who buy Mohist goods, just like the empire For public losers.

In this way, although the limited number of pilots means that only a few people are destined to enjoy the convenience of high (hei) technology, it can benefit some ordinary people to some extent. After all, the Mohists are not like public losers and can only focus on arms. Business.

But the Mohists just refused to commercialize.

Then the pilots of the Mohist family only represent a kind of ability. The 'Mojia disciples' are closer to their profession, so they only serve the internal needs of the Mohist family.

In this way, Mohist technology rarely harms outsiders, but rarely helps outsiders—that is, it has both advantages and disadvantages.

Of course, this kind of self-preserving operation shows that the Mohists are not selfless at all, but rather selfish.

But in fact, the Mo family is still very selfless.

They do not sell technology, but allow any outsider who is not an enemy of Mohism to learn their technology and use their technology.

In short, the situation is as follows:
  ——That's right, our Mo family has invented something, and it's very useful. And we won't sell it for personal gain. You can use it as you like!

So how do we make and use it?

It's very simple, just join the Mo family and learn the art of mechanism. If you are talented, you can become a master in less than ten years!
  How should I put it... Anyway, as long as you are willing to spend time, the Mohist family is willing to train you, and it does not prevent you from making a living with machine skills.

But this is no different from other craftsmen!

You can learn carpentry, masonry, or other skills. As long as you learn it, you can make a living. Why go to the troubled waters of the Mohist family?

Pilots... are really not much better than carpenters and bricklayers. After all, a person is just a pilot, and what a pilot can do is often very limited.

Of course, if you can become a real mechanism master, that's another matter.

However, this is still a meaningless situation for ordinary people - the Mohists and public losers combined, even one generation may not be able to produce a genuine master of mechanism skills!

Uh... let's get back to the topic.

No matter how Thieves Zhi secretly sighs in his heart, he should have found time to rob the rich, give to the poor, and install more doors in his tunnel, but this is the situation now.

The Poto Saburo behind them was about to catch up, and they had no choice but to speed up and run away.

After Master Ban responded to Robber Zhi's question, he also encouraged everyone, "We are almost at the exit, everyone, please work harder!"

In fact, he no longer needed to remind him. Almost everyone could see at a glance the dim light in the distance that was very different from the dim firelight. At this time, it was almost early morning, and the distant sky gradually revealed a faint light.

Although escaping from the tunnel does not mean that you are safe, at least you will enter an open area, and you can try to tangle with Potozaburo, so that this big guy will not be killed in one sweep.

Finally, facing the faint light, everyone rushed out of the tunnel and was exposed to the sky again.

After Master Ban rushed out of the cave, he immediately stopped, put his hands on his thighs, bent over and gasped for breath.

Seeing this, Thief Zhi hurriedly came over to help Master Ban. While helping him to calm down, he urged, "Hurry up, Mr. Ban, the big guy behind is about to catch up!"

But Master Ben shook his head and replied out of breath, "No... I can't do it... Old man, I really... I really can't run anymore!"

Older people do not rely on their muscles and bones for strength. Master Ban's body and bones are relatively strong among the elderly of the same age, but they are far behind compared with young people.

Even if it was just a quick walk with a little bit of jogging, the load would be too much for him.

Like the uninjured Sledgehammer or Robber's Planter, even though he had no internal strength, he didn't breathe heavily all the way, especially the Robber's Planter, who still had weights tied to his legs!

The same cannot be said for Master Ben... But Master Xu is in pretty good shape at the moment. After all, he is still much younger than Master Ben.

Master Ben can't walk, and Thief Zhi is getting anxious:
  "This is no time for rest, we're about to hit you!"

Thieves Zhi turned Master Ben around so that he could clearly see Poto Saburo who was about to rush out of the tunnel following them.

If nothing else goes wrong, after at most three or four breaths, this mechanical beast capable of breaking through a city will run over them standing in the middle of the tunnel exit.

Even so, Master Ben didn't move his legs, he just waved his hands to express that he really didn't have the strength.

Seeing this, Thief Zhi had no choice but to grab Master Ben's arm and try to put the other person on his back - he couldn't run, so he had to carry him on his back.

At this moment, Poto Saburo slammed his limbs on the ground, and his pointed head was about to rush through the tunnel exit, and then... there was just a bang, and it disappeared.

Robber Zhi was stunned, and so were the others behind him.

Only Master Ben was not surprised. He took a breath and said bitterly, "Finally we have dealt with this ghost!"

Thief Zhi looked at Master Ban blankly, "How did you do it?"

"Hehe!" Master Ben straightened up, breathed twice and smiled proudly, and asked, "Want to know?"

Robber Zhi nodded fiercely.

Master Ben didn't intend to tell him, "Have you ever seen any magic performer who would take the initiative to expose his own tricks?"

"Stop showing off, Mr. Ban!" Sledgehammer came over excitedly, shaking Master Ben's shoulders and asked.

The snow girl spoke from behind, "Isn't it obvious at a glance - it's a trap."

Pitfall is one of the most simple traps, but it is indeed effective and easy to use, but it is more laborious to dig.

"It turned out to be such a simple trap!?" Big Hammer couldn't help but be surprised.

"Otherwise?" Master Ban rolled his eyes at him, "What a waste of bronze gates, but digging pits is more economical - basically free!"

For ordinary people, digging a hole is a very laborious job, but for the Mo family, it is naturally child's play - when digging a tunnel, it is done by digging down twice.

Robber Zhi scratched his head in surprise, "I remember that Potu Saburo can climb hills, right? He can even climb up the city wall. How deep did you dig the pit?" Master Ban waved his hand, "It's not very deep. , only four or five feet."

A pit of more than ten meters deep would be enough to dig a well in a suitable place. It is not too deep.

But for the Mo family, that's it, it's really not very deep.

"Isn't this enough?" Thief Zhi obviously felt that this depth was nothing.

Master Ben smiled and replied, "That's enough. This is an earth pit, not a stone pit. Potu Saburo can't climb up without the help of his strength."

Robber Zhi thought the same thing. The sand was so soft that Potu Saburo's tooth blade would not be able to get any strength from cutting into it, so he couldn't climb up. It was not as hard as masonry, so he could climb hard.

"That's good..." Thief Zhi was finally relieved, and then he slapped Master Ban on the shoulder with a smile and asked, "By the way, Mr. Ban, how could you have guessed that this day, you would dig it out so early?" Trap?"

The bronze gate can be used to block pursuing soldiers, not just to deal with machine beasts, but this trap makes it clear that it can only be used to deal with machine beasts - it will be fine if a person steps on it.

"Hi!" Master Ban waved his hand casually, "I didn't expect it. When I was digging the tunnel, I thought that I might encounter the public loser's machine beast, so I dug a hole conveniently."

"That's really thanks to you, Mr. Ban, for digging it out, hahaha!"

Thieves Zhi smiled and hugged Master Ban, turned to join everyone, and was about to leave.

As soon as everyone took steps, a low and magnetic voice sounded - most of them were familiar with this voice.

"I'm afraid you are happy too early!"

Following the words, Wei Zhuang, wearing a wide black robe with gold trim, walked out of the forest and stood in front of them, carrying a shark-tooth sword.

"Weizhuang!"

"It's you bastard!"

Seeing Wei Zhuang appear, Thief Zhi, Big Iron Hammer and others were all shocked and shouted emotionally.

The relationship between the Mo family and Liusha or Niliqusha is not good, not to mention that the recent fall of Guancheng could be said to have been directed by Wei Zhuang.

For Yan Dan's death, in the eyes of Big Iron Hammer and others, although the empire was the culprit, Wei Zhuang was not immune from it.

Facing the excited Mo family members, Wei Zhuang's reaction was very dull. With a slightly sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth, he said softly:

"You came out later than I expected."

Just when Gao Jianli was about to question Wei Zhuang's purpose of blocking the road, a series of fire lights lit up not far away, and at the same time there was a regular vibration - this was Meng Tian's golden fire cavalry gathering here.

The expressions of Master Ban and others suddenly changed - facing Wei Zhuang, they could still find a way to escape, but if they were blocked by the Golden Fire Cavalry, they would not be able to escape in their current state.

Wei Zhuang glanced sideways at the dots of torchlight, and his sneer deepened, "It seems that all your ways are blocked... Maybe you can consider turning back, if you can still get through."

No one responded to Wei Zhuang, even if he said something that didn't deserve a beating.

The atmosphere fell into a stiff state.

………………

On the other side, in the forest, Meng Tian, ​​who was galloping towards the exit of the Mohist Secret Road, suddenly pulled the reins and forcibly stopped the horse.

Because he heard the voice of the messenger calling him behind him:
  "General! General! Xianyang military order, urgent!"

"Urgent!?" Meng Tian's expression changed, he stopped the horse and turned back.

I saw the messengers riding up to catch up with Meng Tian, ​​and immediately reached out and handed out a crimson scroll with dragon patterns on it, "Urgent order from Xianyang, red dragon scroll, general!"

Meng Tian's face became even more shocked when he heard this.

How could it be the Red Dragon Scroll? Nothing big could happen to the empire recently! ?
  But he didn't think too much about it. He opened the scroll and saw it immediately. He immediately reached out to take the scroll and unfolded it to see - the Red Dragon Scroll is rarely encrypted because it is only the most urgent military information. In many cases, it has no value of encryption. It only needs to be encrypted. Delivered as quickly as possible.

After reading the contents of the scroll, the confusion on Meng Tian's face became more and more obvious.

Before reading the scroll, he was just wondering about another emergency military situation in the empire. After reading the scroll, he immediately began to wonder if something had happened to the emperor.

This urgent military order is a bit inexplicable...

However, Meng Tian was just a general, and the emperor's orders were the most important. He had no right to comment, let alone refuse. No matter how strange the order was, he only had to carry it out to the letter.

Although the Mo family's rebellion was close at hand, Meng Tian still ordered without hesitation:

"The entire army retreats immediately! Retreat immediately!"

Following Meng Tian's order, the messenger on the side immediately blew the retreat trumpet.

The army of golden fire cavalry, which originally pounced on the Mo family at the tunnel exit, withdrew as quickly as possible to the camp outside the city.

Everyone in the Mo family who was stopped by Wei Zhuang and was thinking about how to escape from the desperate situation in front of them all showed a look of surprise.

Looking at the fire in the distance that suddenly began to subside, Daozhi scratched his head and said hesitantly, "Did Meng Tian...withdraw his troops?"

Big Iron Hammer nodded blankly, "Yes, this is the clarion call for the Qin army to retreat... Are they really retreating?"

"Did they really retreat?" Master Ban looked at his companions and saw that they all looked confused.

Gai Nie nodded at this time, fully confirming the matter, "Meng Tian, ​​we have indeed withdrawn our troops."

As a former Imperial Sword Master, Gai Nie's words are undoubtedly the most credible.

Gao Jianli frowned and asked, "But, how could they...how could they withdraw their troops at this time?"

Gai Nie shook his head, "I don't know, but... Meng Tian should have received a more urgent military order."

"Ha!" Wei Zhuang sneered at this time, staring at his senior brother with his narrow and sharp eyes, "Do you think there is any order that can make Meng Tian put aside the easy-to-get credit and withdraw his troops directly?"

Gai Nie frowned and responded tentatively, "You mean... the Red Dragon Scroll?"

"Ha!" Wei Zhuang smiled again, saying nothing about Gai Nie's speculation and talking to himself, "Many people have their unavoidable fate."

"Meng Tian is no exception, and the empire to which Meng Tian is loyal is no exception."

"Of course, you are no exception!"

"That's so powerful! What about you bastard, you are no exception!?" Wei Zhuang was not used to Big Iron Hammer's violent temper, and he immediately spat back.

Wei Zhuang was not angry, and smiled coldly, "Many people are arranged by fate, but I...arrange fate!"
