Travel through the heavens

"The way is very subtle and easy, and its meaning is very profound. The way has doors, and also yin and yang. When the door is opened and closed, yin declines and yang rises. In every battle of the way, the spirit is solid inside and the manner is calm outside. When seen, it is like a good woman, when seized, it is like a frightened tiger. The shape and climate are spread out, and the spirit goes with it. It is as far away as the sun, and as slanted as a leaping tiger. Chasing the shape and chasing the sun, the light is like a shadow. The breath comes and goes, and cannot be restrained by the law. It goes up and down, forward and backward, and it cannot be heard."

In the backyard of Nangong Mansion, Fang Muye was reciting the Way of Yue Girl Sword while performing sword skills. He was seen stepping and moving, his body kept moving, and his sword moves were also continuous. He looked quite powerful.

Ten days had passed since Yue Li left. During these ten days, Fang Muye had been practicing diligently. Now, he had finally made the Yuenu Sword powerful. Fang Muye felt that it had reached the level where he could use it against the enemy and fight a few rounds with them.

As for the actual situation, it cannot be verified because it has not been put into actual combat.

After Fang Muye finished practicing the sword technique, he put away his sword and stood up. He was not even breathing heavily. It turned out that this sword technique can not only be used to fight against the enemy, but also has the effect of strengthening the body and enhancing flexibility. The effect is much better than the push-ups, squats, skipping rope and other fitness methods he used all day long.

Uncle Fu came to the backyard when Fang Muye was practicing the sword technique, and did not disturb him. He waited quietly on the side. When he saw Fang Muye put away his sword and stopped, he could not help but praise him: "The master's sword technique is really improving day by day, and now he has the style of a master."

Fang Muye heard this and laughed: "Uncle Fu, don't lie to me. I know my own weight."

Uncle Fu hurriedly explained: "I dare not lie to my master. Your swordsmanship is truly magnificent."

In fact, what Uncle Fu said was his true inner thoughts. After all, he was just an outsider watching the fun. Uncle Fu had no knowledge of martial arts and swordsmanship, so how could he understand the tricks behind it?

If Yue Li were here, he would certainly understand that although Fang Muye is extremely talented, his swordsmanship is still somewhat superficial. He looks very impressive, but if he were to fight against a real swordsman master, he would probably be unable to withstand a single blow.

Fang Muye also thought of this at this moment, and stopped talking about this topic, and asked: "Uncle Fu came to see me, but what's the matter?"

Uncle Fu then talked about the reason why he came to Fang Muye: "My Lord, General Meng Yi just sent someone to tell you to go to the mansion to discuss matters later."

"Okay, I understand."

When Fang Muye was called by Meng Yi to discuss matters at this point in time, he already had some vague guesses in his mind.

Since he was going to the Meng Mansion to discuss matters, Fang Muye did not wear a helmet or armor. He just took off the tights he wore for sword practice and changed into casual clothes.

The person sent by Meng Yi to deliver the message had already left, so Fang Muye went to Meng's Mansion on his own. He had been there several times before with Wang Feng and others, so he was familiar with the way this time. He rode all the way to Meng's Mansion, and then was led to the main hall by a servant of Meng's Mansion.

At this time, two generals of the Meng family army, Wang Feng and Zheng Xingyang, were already sitting in the main hall. Fang Muye greeted the two and then sat down to wait. After a few more people came and everyone was present, Meng Yi also walked in.

"Greetings, General." Everyone stood up and saluted.

Meng Yi pressed his hands together and said in a clear voice: "No need to be polite. I asked you to come here because I have something important to tell you. His Majesty the First Emperor wants to make an eastern tour in three days and let me lead the army."

Hearing that Qin Shi Huang was going to tour the east, Fang Muye's heart tightened and he secretly sighed, "Is it finally coming?"

Meng Yi glanced at everyone and continued, "There are 30,000 troops, including 10,000 guards, 10,000 lieutenant soldiers, and 10,000 lieutenant soldiers, accompanying us on this eastern tour. Nangong, you will lead the 10,000 guards, with Wang Feng and Zheng Xingyang assisting you..."

Then Meng Yi divided the responsibilities of everyone present and made some arrangements for many matters related to the eastern tour.

Three days later, it was the day that Qin Shi Huang set for his eastern tour.

Fang Muye got up early, put on his helmet and armor with the help of the servants in the mansion, had a quick meal, and then, accompanied by Uncle Fu and the servants in the mansion, arrived at the gate of Nangong Mansion.

Fang Muye guessed that he would not come back, so he said to Uncle Fu in a serious tone: "Uncle Fu, after I leave, I will leave the mansion to you!"

Uncle Fu thought Fang Muye was just asking before he left, so he responded respectfully, "Don't worry, my lord. I will take good care of the mansion for you and wait for your safe return."

Ever since Fang Muye came to Xianyang City, he has been able to live so peacefully thanks to Uncle Fu.

It was Uncle Fu who told him a lot of important information, which gave him a basis to avoid the crisis. Moreover, during this period of time, Uncle Fu also took good care of his life and ensured that he had no worries about food and clothing. Uncle Fu's heartfelt kindness to him really gave him a lot of help, which touched him deeply.

After this farewell, I'm afraid I'll never see you again.

Thinking of this, Fang Muye bowed to Uncle Fu, then took the reins from the servant, mounted his horse and headed straight for the Xianyang Palace.

Uncle Fu stood in front of the gate of Nangong Mansion, silently watching Fang Muye walking further and further away. He seemed to feel something in his heart, which turned into two lines of tears and slid down from his already turbid eyes.

Outside the city of Xianyang, thousands of troops gathered, elite soldiers stood in rows, chariots and horses rumbled, flags fluttered in the wind, and an awe-inspiring atmosphere filled the sky.

Inside Xianyang City, a long procession was also slowly moving out of the city. At the front of the procession, Meng Yi, wearing a mighty armor, rode a horse with a solemn expression, and to his left and back was Fang Muye, who also looked solemn. In the procession, the First Emperor's BMW carved carriage, the carriages of his concubines, and the carriages of his ministers were all in line.

The two armies met outside the city of Xianyang. Qin Shi Huang stepped out of his carriage, stood tall, and said in a stern voice: "I want to tour the east to show my might and subdue the people of the country."

Thirty thousand Qin soldiers shouted in unison: "Show your might and win the hearts of the people! Show your might and win the hearts of the people!..."

The shouts were deafening and passionate, prompting the onlookers to shout along.

Qin Shi Huang smiled to the sky and raised his right hand. The cheers suddenly stopped. He waved his raised right hand downwards and said, "Go!"

At Qin Shi Huang's command, the army slowly set out.

Five thousand Qin elite soldiers wearing armor and holding eight-foot-long spears and halberds cleared the way in front. Behind them were five thousand elite cavalrymen, each of them wearing a bronze sword on his waist and carrying a bronze bow and crossbow on his back.

Behind them were thousands of chariots. In addition to several armored soldiers, each chariot also had a large flag fluttering in the wind. The huge Chinese character "Qin" embroidered on it seemed to come alive, like a black dragon circling above the flag.

Then there were several huge carriages that looked exactly the same. One of them was Qin Shihuang's carriage, and the others were filled with concubines. The reason why these carriages looked exactly the same was to be on the safe side. If there were any traitors plotting something evil, it would be difficult to determine which carriage the First Emperor was in.

The carriages of Hu Hai, Li Si, Zhao Gao and other court ministers, as well as imperial doctors and other accompanying personnel followed behind these carriages.

Each of these carriages was guarded by nearly a hundred Qin sharp soldiers and elite cavalry.

Behind the carriages were all the baggage needed for the eastern tour, guarded by special personnel and Qin soldiers. At the end of the team were a large number of elite cavalry and soldiers who were responsible for escorting the rest.

The army marched along the highway, with endless carriages and horses, and flags flying across the sky, like a giant, winding dragon, parading among the people.

Qin Shihuang's fifth and final tour to the east began amid such great fanfare.
