Through Time Chapter 166

Inside the Xiongnu Hu camp.

In the middlemost tent, a dozen or so Xiongnu Hu people sit in a huddle.

And at the very top is Su Ying.

Looking at the tribal leaders in front of him, a hint of complacency emerged in Su Ying’s heart.

Although they were small tribes, they were already a great achievement for him, who had only just finished his studies and left the valley.

There had never been many disciples of the Zongheng Clan, but every one of them was extremely good!

And he was the first of the new generation to leave the valley!

Slightly organizing his plans, Su applied his extreme proficiency in the Hu-people language to say that

“Gentlemen, these few days have been quite fruitful, haven’t they?”

At the mention of this, all the chiefs smiled and nodded, and one of them said, with a certain amount of ingratiation.

“Thanks to you, too.”

The others echoed the sentiment.

They were originally a small tribe, and their days were not easy on a regular basis.

This time, the plundering of the caravan was indeed quite rewarding.

When Su Ying saw this scene, a trace of contempt passed through his eyes.

Barbarians were barbarians, and some petty profits would be able to subdue them.

Su Ying then deliberately showed a hint of worry and said that

“It’s just that if we have taken the caravan captive, the Qin army will certainly not rest in peace.”

“Why don’t we all approach Goguryeo together early tomorrow morning and watch out for each other with them?”

“Don’t worry, chiefs, I have already made a pact with the royal family of Goguryeo.”

Hearing these words, one of the chiefs could not help but say that

“Your wisdom is higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea.”

“Then we will make early preparations and set out tomorrow!”

Only then did Su Ying reveal a smile that

“Then it will be hard work for all the chiefs!”

After saying that, he got up and left the tent.

When Su Ying left, all the chiefs in the tent instantly turned their attention, falling on the chief of a Xiongnu tribe.

The rules of the Xiongnu Hu people were simple: they would listen to whoever was stronger.

The Xiongnu chief looked at the direction Su Ying had left and said that

“Cunning Qin people.”

“Hmph, he just wants us to die, the royal court is afraid to confront the Qin army, who are we to do so?”

“First thing tomorrow morning, we’ll head north back deep into the grasslands.”

Only then did the other tribal chiefs reveal a smile.

Su Ying walked through the camp, looking at the camp full of Xiongnu Hu people, a chill appeared in his eyes.

He certainly didn’t care whether these people lived or died, he was just using them as a shield.

Only these barbarians were attracting the Qin army.

Only then would the Goguryeo royal family have breathing space.

He could also use this as a basis for continuing to unite the six kingdoms.

He had originally all but united the descendants of Zhao.

But to his surprise, not long ago, the Zhao family’s power in Liaodong was uprooted by a nameless youngster called Zhao Lang!

It was simply absurd!

“Zhao Xie is no better than that,”

Su Yun frowned and

“I heard that there are heroes in the former land of Chu, when things are done here, I will go to seek the Chu people.”

As for Zhao Lang, Su Yun did not care too much, a nobody was just a nobody.

Of course, if he came across one, he did not mind cleaning up the other party by hand.

Having made up his mind in his mind, Su Yun walked towards Shang Yan’er’s location with a grim face.

He had to take down the merchant early.

After all, the Zongheng family was not rich either.

Soon the camp was busy, with the departure early tomorrow morning and all those goods that had been plundered recently to be sorted out.

No one cared, locked in a cage to go to hell, and was watching the camp set up with rapt attention.

At this moment, not far from the camp, in a meadow.

Zhao Lang was lying inside, staring at the camp while opening the bamboo tube beside him.

Inside this was the three main ingredients for black powder.

He had to mix them together before he could use them.

Ten kilograms or so of refined black powder would be enough for these Hu people to drink.

Suddenly, there was a noise from the side.

Zhao Long did not move and covered the bamboo tube with grass, while holding the dagger at his waist.

Seeing Li Shang’s face, he only slightly relaxed and casually asked

“Why aren’t you resting?”

Li Shang looked down at the camp not too far away before he spoke up and

“You’re really going to raid them.”

Zhao Lang found a piece of grass to put in his mouth and lazily said that

“You can leave if you’re afraid of dying, I’m not stopping you.”

“I’m afraid of dying?”

Li Shang said with a red face.

“Hmph, I’ve had my share of women, what am I afraid of.”

Looking again at Zhao Lang’s slightly tender face, Li Shang seemed to have found Zhao Lang’s shortcomings and said, with a bit of ridicule on his face.

“Just a brat like you, you probably haven’t even touched a woman’s hand.”

Hearing this, Zhao Lang instantly slanted a glance at the other party, but did not say anything.

This kind of thing, what was there to brag about?

Thinking that he had found the point, Li Shang rode on to say that

“You don’t know, do you? Let me tell you, women are like water…”

Seeing that Li Shang was about to show off his shallow experience, Zhao Lang stopped him and said.

“You’re married?”

Li Shang paused for a moment, shook his head and said.

“But I’ve come out this time and seen this vast world, to the point where I’ve thought of what to call my son, would you like to know?”

Zhao Long shook his head and casually returned that

“Don’t want to.”

This guy didn’t even have a wife, so he was thinking long term.

Li Shang pretended he didn’t hear this and continued to speak with great interest that

“Just call Li Guang.”

“Look at that name, how bold it is!”

Zhao Lang first nodded indifferently, then suddenly thought of something and turned his head to look at Li Shang with an odd expression.

Zhao Long’s history was average, but he had heard of the famous general Li Guang of the Han Dynasty, and the saying “Feng Tang is easy to grow old, but Li Guang is hard to seal” had been passed down in the world.

I just don’t know if it is the same person.

Li Shang was puzzled by the look on his face.

“What’s wrong?”

Zhao Lang thought for a moment and said to

“Nothing, in the future, if there is a chance, I will make your son a marquis.”

Li Shang blinked, he didn’t understand what Zhao Lang meant and wanted to ask something else.

Then he saw Zhao Lang waving his hand and

“Go and rest, you have a busy night ahead.”

Li Shang could only leave as well.

Zhao Lang looked at the other man and then went back to work.

Night had fallen again, but this night there was a bright moon.

The camp was much quieter than yesterday.

The surrounding caravans have been pretty much plundered and will be leaving first thing in the morning.

And after days of exertion, they need to get some rest.

So when Zhao Lang touched into the camp again, it was quite convenient.

This time Zhao Long only brought Erhei and Xiao Liu with him.

First, he arrived at the place where he went to die and was trapped, and after communicating in sign language, he left Erhei behind and waited for the right moment.

Then Zhao Long found the place where the goods were stacked and put a bamboo tube of black powder.

Then he asked Xiao Liu to stay behind, and they were to start at the same time.

“How do you say I am the God of Heaven in Hu?”

Zhao Lang asked before he and Xiao Liu separated.

Xiao Liu told Zhao Lang with a complicated look in his eyes.

Zhao Lang nodded his head and explained once again that

“After you light the fire, get out of here, the further the better.”

Then he touched over towards Shang Yan’er’s position.

The other side had helped him yesterday, and this still had to be saved.

Only when he was close to the tent, he heard a sound that

“Su Ying! If you want to kill, kill, no need to be sycophantic!”
